the sun always seems to shine on friday. >> the sun comes up every day. >> unless there's clouds. >> good morning, kari. >> good morning, sam and kris. light, patchy fog in spots otherwise clear skies. 51 degrees in the east bay and north bay at 55 degrees. looking at highs today again in the 70s. 76 in the north bay and while we have 72 in the east bay peninsula and the south bay. we'll take a look at that weekend forecast for your easter egg hunt coming up in a few minutes. let's see what's happening at the bay bridge with mike. >> kari, if you're looking for a good drive, the bay bridge is a place to look. the upper east shore freeway we do have a crash, made its way over to the shoulder without any problems and a smooth drive for the rest of the bay. typical slowing towards the caldecott and no big surprises for anybody around the bay right now. >> mike, thank you. we start right now with breaking news out of brussels this morning. two americans now confirmed dead in the terror attacks in belgium. sasha and alexander from new york were killed in the bombing at the brussels airport. >> let's go right to "today in the bay" steve handelsman live in brussels this morning. steve, we know that these two, a lot of hope they would be coming back to new york alive but sadly seems to not be the case. >> it is terribly sad. finally confirmation that two people who live in the usa and feared lost here, in fact, have lost their lives. confirmation of two of four americans who were feared lost and unaccounted for. they were lost and unaccounted for and feared dead and now confirmation that sasha and alexander has lost their lives. a friend of sasha described her as "one terrific chick." spoke five languages. they were born in greece and then resided in the netherlands not far from here. they spent time here in belgium. they lived in new york city. the sister and the brother had reportedly flown and just landed here in brussels airport on a trip. sasha had to go to greece on what is described as some sort of immigration matter. they called home and the report is that you can only hope this report is exaggerated that they were literally on the phone with their mom when their mom says she heard a loud noise and the phone disconnected. send chills up your spine. but these two young people are now confirmed killed. part of the 31-death toll here. the only good news to report in belgium is that the belgian police have stepped up their work to try to prevent another attack here. they've been criticized. actually not much by belgians of failing to break up this plot even though they focused on the neighborhood where the killers apparently came from looking into the paris attack and now john kerry is here vowing to help the belgians and everybody else to focus on the threat of isis terror and without naming sasha and alexander pinczowski. we now move to our second breaking news story we're following this morning. first, happening right now in the east bay. police are responding to home invasion. >> investigators combed through the two different scenes here. bob redell is live at hayward police department with more details. we know several people

people, including two young women after a possible home invasion taking place at the plaza verde apartments. this an apartment complex at 550 berry avenue. police tell us they are investigating a break-in into one of the units there that happened some time before midnight. not clear if anyone inside the unit was hurt. but we do know the suspects escaped and ended up crashing their get away vehicle, a sedan, just a couple of blocks away. it's not clear if this crash happened because of poor driving or if they were being chased by police. the video does show a man from the car being handcuffed. being wheeled away into an ambulance. police have taken four people from that car into custody, two females. young adults, possibly teenagers. bob redell, "today in the bay." >> we'll

up, here's a live look at treasure island. your easter sunday forecast, coming up. and some of california's reservoirs now spilling over. if you might be wondering, do i still have to take a shorter shower, we have the answer in a few minutes. look at l thawater- jusflowingw. would you look at all that water flowing out of the reservoir. we haven't seen this in a long time after historic drought in california. this is a sign of how much rain and snow we have gotten so far this season. north sacramento and north of reading are both releasing tons of water to avoid flooding. when all the snow melts in the mountains but we are still technically in a drought. don't take a longer shower. >> you answered the question. you still have to watch the showers. we used to see the bottom of the reservoirs and now it's gushing water. >> i'd love to see a comparison. kari hall. a lot of rain over the last couple of weeks and none here heading into the morning. >> good morning, sam and kris. we will continue on with dry weather after a little bit of rain to start off the weekend. now it is cool as you go out the door. 45 degrees in the north bay and 52 degrees in the east bay and the south bay at 50 degrees. let's drop in on the east bay now. where it is 50 degrees in pleasanton and in lafayette 49 degrees and brentwood also 49 degrees. as we go into the day, we're looking at more of that sun and a cool start will be at 58 degrees at 10:00. and then rising into the upper 60s in san francisco with a light wind, it will still be breezy, again, today. a look at all the microclimates. 73 degrees in cupertino and san mateo and the financial district at 68 degrees and 76 degrees and danville today 74 degrees. as we go into the next several days, we are looking at above average temperatures in los gatos. 71 degrees today and 73 degrees on saturday and then we get ready for a change that will bring in more clouds and some cooler temperatures on sunday into the start of next week and we will be dropping back to 60 degrees on tuesday. and this is part of the reason why. we've had a high pressure blocking any rain but the jet stream takes a dip. that separates the cold air from the north to the warm air to the south and also allows for the low pressure systems to drop in. this will be moving in from the north and could bring in light snow for the sierra. i the bay area only has a slight chance of rain on monday and then again on wednesday. a look at the forecast and into the mid-70s and beautiful weather for going to the zoo, easter egg hunt and whatever you have planned. still dry with a high of 71 degrees on sunday in the north bay. that's a look at weather. let's see what's happening in traffic, especially as you go across the san mateo bridge with mike. >>

tomorrow morning. that is to ease traffic on the bridge during this easter weekend. folks that take golden gate transit buses say they are tired of last-minute bus cancellations and delays. the bridge district blames a driver shortage and too many sick calls. that's kicking riders' frustrations into high gear. >> oh, we're really angry. it's freezing, of course. >> i wrote a letter because it happened so often. so many days over so many weeks. i thought, there has to be something to this, this is nuts. >> the golden gate says they're working on addressing that problem and more drivers right now are being hired and the training is under way. but relief is not expected until june. at 4:49. still struggling to pinpoint the problem. b.a.r.t. is updating its board of directors about a mysterical electrical surge that continues to disrupt service. nine days since trains were taken off the lines. trains are still not fully back in service. b.a.r.t. says that crews are working around the clock, but they still cannot figure out what's wrong. >> it's very unsatisfying to say we don't know why we're doing, what's happening is happening. that is not a very satisfying answer to me and i'm sure to the people i represent. >> b.a.r.t. says a tiny, expensive part might be the key. the parts arrived, as they should, in four weeks. the commuters say a fix needs to happen sooner than that. a section of light rail service is out in downtown san jose and things are going to stay that way through the weekend. the vta suspended both regular and express service between the civic center
