going to be indoors or outdoors. right now we're in the 40s. this is a nice way to wake up. then we do warm up nicely. so we're not going to stay in the 40s, we're not even going to stay in the 50s. we'll be climbing into 60s and 70s. the temperature trend is looking mostly good. a nice combination of sun and clouds. and that's because we do have high clouds in the forecast. but if you're wondering about your easter sunday looking up ahead, i want to give you a preview and let you know that today is probably going to be the best day to hide eggs early in the morning because by tomorrow you do want to take your easter egg hunt indoors. i have a close are look at that timeline, but we are tracking some rain. the good news is it looks like it's not a major storm. so rain totals aren't too significant. we're not expecting too much rain, just a little bit pesky having to do an egg hunt with some muddy grass. >> so maybe do it today. >> yeah, yeah. >> rearrange those plans. thanks, vianey. we begin this morning with an overnight fire that turned deadly in oakland. it ignited just after midnight at a two-story housing unit on the 1800 block of 103rd avenue near the oakland zoo. fire crews say after they knocked down the fire they found a man who had died on the second floor. all ovther occupants got out safely. a problem with b.a.r.t. is disrupting service for thousands of east bay commuters. it appears a mysterious propulsion problem is back. it started yesterday morning. you might remember the last time this problem happened was in march of last year when power spikes took out more than 50 b.a.r.t. cars. it meant weeks of bus bridges and big delays for passengers. well, same thing around 10:00 yesterday morning a large amount of b.a.r.t. cars were experiencing that propulsion problem in a section of the track between the north concore and pittsburg bay point stations. b.a.r.t. decided to switch to shorter shuttle trains, but the damage was already done. 22 car hs to be taken out of service. >> she had to go get her baby from child care. i had an appointment. you know, they're raising all the money. they're getting all this money paid. what are they doing with the money? >> we understand the frustration that a lot of people are experiencing when they don't have full service. it's frustrating for us, too. >> b.a.r.t. officials tested those trains throughout the night last night but they say riders should check the b.a.r.t. website or twitter feeds for updates this morning. north korea is celebrating the 105th birthday of the country's late founder with a massive show of force and weapon s kim jong-un watched the parade waving and smiling. the memory of his father kim il sung is honored every year on his birthday. it featured some of the most valuable military hardware including its prototype intercontinental ballistic missile. there's grows belief that north korea will launch at missile to mark the occasion. donald trump said it would launch a preemptive strike but north korea said it would meet any attack with a nuclear response. the hope is that north korea will back away from any planned test. >> its ultimate priority is survival. and basically it's trying to find some exit that will help them to save face. >> the streets are quiet in seoul on this holiday weekend as the country waits for north korea's next move. today, president trump supporters and opponents are once again expected to face off in berkeley. you may remember this conflict last month when the political opponents clashed violently. today in the bay spoke to oakland city leaders who are enforcing rules this time around in hopes of preventing more violence. >> trump supporters and opponents faced off in berkeley a month ago and it ended in violation. code pink organizer cynthia papermaster was there. >> he's beating her with an umbrella. he struck her in the head. and blood started coming out. it was very scary to see this. >> reporter: berkeley police made ten arrests that day. now they're preparing for another round of competing demonstrations. trump supporters are holding patriots day at civic center park. counterprotesters are expected. papermaster is organizing anti-trump protesters but no one here plans to be part of patriots day. >> i just don't see how that gains anybody anything. it seems infantile to me. >> reporter: after last month's violence one bank near civic center park has boarded up windows and is closing early. the city of berkeley says police will help facilitate free speech rights for both sides. officers will also be prepared to make arrests. >> one of the things we ask people to do, peaceful protesters, is separate themselves from people committing violence. that not only keeps them safe but allows police to intervene in a way that's more effective. meanwhile, in san francisco, there will be an anti-trump protest to mark april 15th, which is traditionally tax day. today's protests at ocean beach at noon will call for the president to release his tax returns. similar protests are planned in several other bay area cities. and a high profile showdown in san francisco federal court all over a lawsuit against the trump administration. san francisco and santa clara counties are suing the president over his executive order to defund sanctuary communities. in court yesterday morning lawyers for the department of justice argued that the lawsuit was using the narrowest of terms to interpret the president's executive order and that both cities may not even be affected. it's a move that surprised many and had some describing the president's attorneys as unprepared. the judge said he will announce his decision soon. they're not giving up their fight. protesters in san francisco are still angry at a decision by the san francisco district attorney to clear two police officers involved in a deadly shooting. you may remember back in 2015 lopez was shot and killed after refusing to obey demands to stop advancing and to drop his knife. a re-enactment was released with the district attorney finding that the shooting was justified. demonstrators say there's no excuse for why perez lopez was shot six times, five times in the bang. they want the district attorney to face the community and answer questions. >> we have invited him to come out to a community meeting, to answer questions, to be held accountable. >> the d.a.'s office did invite activists into the meeting but so far a public meeting has not been set up. an update to a story that our investigative unit broke last year. a longtime san francisco firefighter now under arrest accused of stealing thousands of dollars of firefighting equipment. the investigation began last year after firefighters responded to a fire at a business owned by membershiple lee. well, that's where they discovered more than $7,000 worth of hoses and brass fittings. when they asked lee about it, lee told investigators he found the equipment at a flea market or that he picked up pieces left behind at fire scenes. he admitted he neglected to return the equipment. it is 7:08 right now. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay" coming up. a terrible crash kills two women leaving a bay area church. what detectives know about the driver who they say caused the deadly accident. the surging industry that's hiring more people in california than any other state. a south bay church community is in mourning ... after a deadly high-speed crash killed two of their beloved a south bay church community is in mourning after a high speed crash killed two of their parishioners minutes after they left a church service. tom jensen spoke to family and friends who learned that a suspected drunk driver is to blame. >> reporter: members of our lady of peace church observed the stations of the cross, a holy week tradition. inside the church a priest announces the deaths of two parishioners killed just after leaving service late thursday night about the good friday mass was dead it willed to karina kubow and her 92-year-old mother angela bontilao. >> very shocking, quite shocking. i mean, they came to the service he here, their last supper, and then they go and get in an accident. really tragic. >> reporter: the family in mourning was not available for comment. this parishioner hopes they find solace in the fact that their loved ones died after professing their faith during holy week. >> maybe easier to accept because it happened on a very special day, you know. so that way, i think, forgiveness may be easier. >> reporter: the service focused on the christian teachings of forgiveness. the suspect was drunk when his car crossed the median and slammed into the victims' car. >> at this tile the pending charges felony dui and vehicular manslaughter. >> reporter: tom jensen. much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up, it's one of the fastest growing industries in the country and is right here in the bay area. how you can get in on it, next. and get ready for a very nice saturday across the bay area. woodside looking absolutely gorgeous. but we do have a storm system that could be affecting your easter sunday plans. i'll talk about that incoming rain coming up after the break. welcome back at 7:15 as the sun rises over the transamerica pyramid in san francisco. a chilly morning out there. 48 degrees right now. but vianey arana says the bay area will see 60s even 70s on this day before a rainy easter sunday. it's well known that tesla, uber and google all have self-driving cars, now we can add apple to that list. the south bay tech giant has been approved to test autonomous cars right here in california. experts say despite apple testing driverless cars, they don't actually expect the company to make one any time soon. there's a lot of technology that goes into the driverless experience and one apple expert we spoke with says he thinks the cupertino-based company wants to develop an operating system for the car first. >> the next generation of cars are basically going to be servers on wheels. can you add intelligence to them and, if so, can apple provide value through an operating system and a user interface that makes that car even better? >> apple is not commenting on the report. the boston consulting group estimates that 12 million autonomous cars will be on the road by 2025. now to solar energy. it's among the fastest growing businesses here in the bay area and a school designed to put more people to work wants it to stay that way. our business and tech reporter scott budman shows us. >> reporter: in an economy that's on the rise, very few businesses are climbing as quickly as solar and jessica perez is part of it. >> this is my first install actually under my belt. >> reporter: jessica is part of a crew putting panels in place. she's also part of the san jose conservation corps, a charter school that prepares people for solar jobs. >> i would say, yeah, it's like the gateway to get your foot in the door with a lot of good companies out there. >> reporter: companies like clean solar, one of several helping the bay area to increase solar jobs by 67% over the last year. >> you need 6 to 15 people on a job site to install that one job. and we've got multiple crews out every day. so it's a growing space. >> reporter: 26,000 people in the bay area were hired over the last 12 months in the solar field. thanks to graduates like jessica, more are on the way. >> right now we're hiring, actually. i have interviews this afternoon and monday morning. >> reporter: scott budman, nbc bay area news. let's check in with vianey arana with a look at the forecast. today might be a good day for solar energy, but not tomorrow. >> not tomorrow but mainly because of the rain. i know we're not expecting serious downpours. >> yeah. >> however, it is easter sunday tomorrow, which means you may have to change your plans up at least by a bit. walnut creek right now looks absolutely stunning as we can see that sunrise using our weather underground sky cam. looking absolutely gorgeous. still on the chilly side out there. 45 degrees for the south bay peninsula. the tri-valley at 41 degrees and san francisco is seeing mostly clear skies, the north bay at 30 degrees and the east bay a little bit of heat out there at 46 degrees. today's forecast is lining up to be a beautiful spring day. it will set us up nicely to enjoy easter sunday, but this is expected to change as we head into tomorrow and that's because we do have an incoming system in the pacific. half moon bay to hit 67 today. san francisco 68, santa rosa 71 and the east bay climbing into the upper 60s. the south bay we will be expecting 70s out there. san jose at about 73 degrees. here it is, that doppler radar is already showing that storm system sitting just off the coast. as far as the timeline goes, let's talk about it. the hour by hour outlook is showing a bit of cloud cover as we head into tonight. we're expecting to see increase in cloud cover tonight. so those mostly clear skies you'll be enjoying throughout your saturday morning will start shifting to a little bit of cloud cover overcast skies and then 8:00, 9:00 a.m. on saturday we start seeing the approaching system. the north bay will be the first to get that rain early in the morning. if you have plans to be at an early morning mass or egg hunt, you may want to bring it indoors because by about 11:00 a.m., we do see an incoming line of showers and that will become widespread through the early afternoon right around lunchtime, 12:00, we could see showers all the way from the north bay down to the south bay and actually see that rain making its way through by about 2:00. santa cruz gets a good amount of medium to a little bit of heavy downpours, but it is very fast moving. if you had plans to be outside for a barbecue, bring it indoors because that rain will be lingering until about 7:00, then after 7:00 through the evening hours we do see it tapering off just a bit. but by monday morning for that early morning commute expect to see spotty showers in that forecast sticking around through monday and then spotty showers will also linger into tuesday. let's talk about the day planner for today. we'll be seeing very good skies, mostly sunny, 52 degrees along the bay by 12:56 for inland areas. you start noticing some increase in clouds. we also start seeing breezier conditions. if we look at easter sunday, here it is, what you've been waiting for, by 9:00 a.m. 50, 47 degrees, then we start seeing the showers along the north bay and then they become more widespread by 11:00 or 12:00. then by 3:00 we still expect to see some rain, some showers poking around and some breezy conditions by about 7:00 we start seeing that rain taper off just a bit. over the next seven days easter rain will linger into early monday morning. expect spotter showers as well. the models are showing it clearing out nicely leaving way for thursday and friday up ahead. overall mostly clear conditions. we'll be warming up just a bit. now as of now, 63 expected for the inland valley. 68 expect into monday. tuesday and wednesday we'll see a shift in this pattern from rain to mostly clear. and then as of thursday and friday right now looking good. tomorrow, please make sure to get prepped with all of those eggs. i don't want anybody's plans to get ruined. i'll send things over to you. >> vianey, thanks. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay." the man planting flowers has turned into a big lesson learned for school children. part of our bay area proud series. s ises is. gardens. but one local man makes tending to his flowers.... his passion year-round. t welcome back. now that it's spring people will be replanting their gardens, but within man makes it his passion year round. garvin thomas explains how students are benefiting from that passion in this morning's "bay area proud". >> reporter: if you remember don quixote, he was famous for embarking on quests that didn't end all that well. in spite of that, this man doesn't mind being compared to him. youquixote is still taught in schools and now so is rich. for the past four years up on this milpitas hillside nature has been teaching rich santoro a familiar lesson -- if at first you don't succeed, well, you know the rest. what rich didn't know until recently, though, is that the lesson wasn't meant for him at all. >> when she told me what she was doing, it hit me on the way home and that's when the emotion welled up and i realized i was having an effect. >> reporter: we first introduced you to rich years ago showing how he plants more than 10s this this bulbs in his backyard each winter and then invites the public in for a sneak peek at the spectacular results the following spring. how he got the nickname the bulb guy. we followed rich's story then as he tried to bring the same magic to a bigger audience, planting thousands of bulbs on that hillside which, when in bloom, would spell out a message to passers-by. >> it was a disaster. >> reporter: except they never did. too dry one year and too wet another. and this year? well, more than 6,000 flowers shot out of the ground but -- >> they ate the bulbs on the bottom. >> reporter: ground squirrels took it from there. >> they had lunch, breakfast and dinner on the bulb guy. >> reporter: yet another disaster. but from someone else's vantage point, it was completely different. >> the guy does it all on his own. >> reporter: she lives across the street and has watched rich for years try and fail to realize his dream yet keep coming back. >> the tulips are not coming on, maybe he'll change his mind and he'll leave this hill all alone and he'll go away. but he did not. >> reporter: she says rich inspired her to keep going when she suffered setbacks in her life, and she thought she isn't the only one who could benefit from his example. >> today i'm going to talk about a bulb guy. >> reporter: so she made a bulb guy lesson plan for her students at the stratford school in santa clara. >> he is not giving up on his project. should you give up on yourself any time? >> man. >> reporter: rich says it will be a while before he wraps his mind around the strange turn his story has taken, but he has already learned one thing. that the difference between success and failure is sometimes all in how you look at it. in spite of all rich's troubles on the hillside, his backyard continues to bloom spectacularly. he welcomed visitors again this year for the 30th year in ra row. garvin thomas, nbc bay area news. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up new details about a jerry rice-signed football

have an update on the exact time coming up in just a bit. >> not convenient for anyone planning outdoor activities tomorrow. we begin this morning with an overnight fire that turned deadly in oakland. it ignited just after midnight in a two-story housing unit on the 1800 block of 103rd avenue a few blocks away from the oakland zoo. fire crews say after they knocked down the fire, they discovered a man who had died on the second floor. all the other occupants were able to make it out safely. investigators say the cause of the fire does not seem suspicious. a problem with b.a.r.t. is disrupting service for thousands of east bay commuters that appears that a mysterious propulsion problem is back. it started yesterday morning. you might remember the last time this problem happened was in march of last year when power spikes took out more than 50 b.a.r.t. cars. it meant weeks of bus bridges and big delays for riders. well, it happened again around 10:00 yesterday morning. a large amount of b.a.r.t. cars were experiencing that propulsion problem in a section of the track between the north concore and pittsburg bay point stations. by 1:30 in the afternoon, b.a.r.t. decided to just switch to shorter shuttle trains. but the damage was already done. 22 cars had to be taken out of service. >> she got to go get her baby from child care. i had an appointment at 6:00, you know they're raising all the money. they're getting all this money paid. what are they doing with the money? >> we understand the frustration that a lot of people are experiencing when they don't have full service. it's frustrating for us, too. >> b.a.r.t. officials did test those trains throughout the night last night, but they say riders should check the b.a.r.t. website or twitter feed for updates on the schedule this morning. north korea is celebrating the 105th birthday of the country's late founder with a massive show of force and of weapons. leader kim jong-un watched the parade, smiling and applauding and saluting the troops as they passed by. the memory of his grandfather kim il sung is honored on this day each year on the anniversary of his birthday. the parade featured some of the country's most valuable military hardware including its prototype intercontinental ballistic missiles. there is growing belief that north korea will conduct another nuclear test or a missile launch to mark the occasion. president trump has said the u.s. would consider a preemptive strike in order to prevent that, but north korea said it would respond to any attack with a nuclear response. the concern is so high now that japan reportedly is looking into ways to evacuate its citizens from south korea. the hope, of course, is that north korea will back away from any planned test. >> its ultimate priority is survival. and basically it's trying to find some exit that will help them to save face. >> meanwhile, the streets are quiet in seoul on this holiday weekend as the country awaits word on north korea's next move. today president donald trump's supporters and opponents are once again expected to face off in berkeley. you might remember this conflict last month when the political opponents clashed violently. city leaders and residents in berkeley are preparing for a so-called patriots day rally at the park. some businesses have taken precautions and put up boards to cover their windows. the pro-trump event is expected to draw a big crowd and counterprotesters, as we mentioned. the two groups faced off in march and the result was violence. berkeley police made many arrests. protesters who attended a code pink organizing event in berkeley last night say they are avoiding today's event because they expect it to be violent and not productive. >> i just don't see how that gains anybody anything. it seems infantile. >> the city of berkeley is hoping to prevent a repeat of the march protest violence. the police department says it's staffing appropriately. and sent out a list of banned items, including sticks, signs on sticks, pipes and poles and again signs must be carried by hand. meanwhile in san francisco, there will be an anti-trump protest to mark april 15th which is traditionally tax day. today's protest at ocean beach is at noon and will call for the president to release his tax returns. similar protests are planned in several other bay area cities as well. a community of muslims in the east bay gathered to mark the opening of a women's mosque. it's a unique space. in most mosques women rarely are seen and are not separated from male worshipers. this mosque was founded by muslim women, one of only two such mosques nationwide. organizers say the goal is to create a space where everyone feels welcome. >> we want to inspire a new generation to take part in the community of educators and the visi visionaries and the leaders. >> the mosque is called a word that means heart of mary in arabic. it shares the space with the star king unitarian universalist ministry school that's near the uc berkeley campus. this mosque is only the second so-called women's mosque in the u.s. the first is in l.a. san francisco is celebrating the opening of a new housing development aimed at keeping working class families from being priced out of the city. it's called hunter's view. and it's part of a public housing revitalization plan. the mayor and nancy pelosi attended the opening. this development has been attracting a lot of interest. >> amazing, very good. we're going to get to, you know, live in one of these like this and low income. you know, rent too high and people have to move across the bay. >> by the time the project is complete, 267 apartments will be completely replaced and dozens of new units will be built. yesterday's opening celebration was for the completion of 107 units. new details about that football signed by hall of famer jerry rice stolen at a charity event. milpitas police have released more photos hoping someone will recognize any of these people. take a look. investigators say the football was taken during a fund-raising dinner sunday night at the koi palace restaurant in milpitas. the ball is believed to be worth more than $3,000. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up we're about 29 hours away from the warriors kicking off the playoffs at oracle arena, but who is counting? you're going to be hanging out in here. so if you need anything, text me. do you play? ♪ ♪ use the chase mobile app to send money in just a tap, to friends at more banks then ever before. you got next? chase. helping you master what's now and what's next. but for another n-b-a tile welcome back. here's a live look at oracle arena. the warriors will play the portland trail blazers in game one of the western conference playoffs. the warriors are huge favorites and have good reason to be confident going into game one. the public relations staff gave us an early peek at the shirts being given out. this year's motto is "defend our ground" and, of course, "strength in numbers." we got a chance to catch up with steph curry who told us what's different from last year is the team doesn't feel the pressure is on them to win it all. >> we're not -- in theory we're not the hunted. obviously we have the best record, but we're not defending a championship. there's no -- really there's no pressure. >> game one tips off at 12:30 tomorrow afternoon in oakland. it was a tough night for the sharks. a live look at the s.a.p. center in san jose where tomorrow sharks fans will get their chance to cheer on team teal at home. un1-0 in the series with the oilers, they were hoping to take a commanding lead but instead it was the home team stealing the show. the oilers shut out the sharks 2-0. the series is now tied 1-1. again game three is tomorrow at the shark tank. puck drops at 7:00. giants fans had a lot to smile about on orange friday. the bats were hot in a game that aired right here on nbc bay area. buster posey in the dugout on track for a potential return to the lineup ddz in kansas city. chris marrero hit a two-run shot to left for a 2-0 lead in the second. then an emotional moment. brendan crawford, his sister-in-law passed away suddenly this week. he hit an opposite field homer and as he crosses the plate a look skyward. >> tried to get around the bases as fast as i could. but i mean, that one was for jen, that was for my sister-in-law. >> reporte >> the giants went on the beat the rockies 8-2. things didn't go as well for the green and gold. the a's taking on the astros in oakland. khris davis gave them a run. but they would explode for seven unanswered runs and they beat the a's 7-2. it appears a beast is heading to the bay area. marshawn lynch known by many, of course, as beast mode, has agreed to a new contract with the raiders. there's just one catch, though. technically the retired running back is still under contract with the seattle sea hawks. sources say a trade would still need to be worked out before lynch joins the silver and black. he's an oakland native and former star running back at cal. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up -- the fallout continues for united airlines after a passenger was dragged off a flight. what some local groups are demanding to teach the airline a lesson. and it's 48 degrees right now in san francisco. coming up after the break, i'll have a look at today's highs plus a look ahead at your sharks, warriors and easter sunday forecast. good morning. it is 7:45 and heavenly lake tahoe is looking gorgeous on this saturday morning. 23 degrees right now. we're not in the 20s everywhere in the bay area, but it's certainly feeling cold out there. still in the 40s for this hour. 40 for the peninsula. san francisco right now waking up to about 48 degrees. the north bay nice and cold at 30 degrees and the east bay at 46. now we are expecting overall a pretty good spring saturday also climbing into those 60s for san francisco. at about 1:00 we should be at the 56, 61 mark. today will be one of those nice calm days, maybe a good day to head outside for a hike, take your dogs outside. 45 degrees for san jose. but 2:00 already in the 70s. all in all today's highs will be climbing very well into the upper 60s loalong the coastline. we're not expecting to see too much heat in terms of 80s. doppler radar is showing that incoming storm system. unfortunately, though it's not going to bring a lot of rain, it is going to bring some changes as you head into your easter sunday. let's talk about those major changes. if you pay attention, it looks like the hour by hour outlook we'll be climbing into the 60s and the 70s. if we fast forward through that sunday hour at about 8:00 or 9:00 a.m. north bay seeing early morning showers. the rain will start off in the north bay. as we fast forward through the 11:00 hour, we do start to see that line of showers that's expected to start pushing through and this is right around when people head over to mass or you're getting set up for the easter egg hunt or barbecue with family and friends, get the kids a raincoat or take that easter egg hunt indoors. 12:00 we do see periods of moderate and heavy downpours at times. it won't bring too much rain, less than half an inch for areas along the north bay and less than a tenth of an inch for areas along the south bay. now, if we fast forward to the 2:00 hour, we continue to see widespread showers. they're expected to stick around to about 5:00, 6:00, then it tapers off by 8:00 p.m. monday morning at 7:00 a.m. early on in the north bay could expect to see spotty showers for the early morning commute. a quick check of the easter sunday temperature trend. walnut creek you'll start noticing the overcast skies. not a lot of sunshine for tomorrow. fast forward through 11:00. that's when we begin to see more widespread showers and those showers are expected to linger for the entire bay area through the afternoon. but if you're heading to the sharks game, i know they play indoors but they'll be hosting a three-game streak rally tomorrow. i think that's outside for sure. about 4:00 when it's set to start, look at all of these icons are showing rain right now. temperatures in the 50s. the warriors game will also be a wet commute if you're planning to drive up there. take that extra time. i know that there's always typically a lot of traffic. the next seven days easter rain, monday, tuesday we keep the spotty showers in the forecast for inland and san francisco. then by wednesday we begin to dry out nicely setting us up for what looks like a good end of the work week. so we just got to get through this little bit of rain, then we
