Supposed to come down on you peretti good. Yeah, they had to make a contingency plan because of this weather thats coming in. We have been checking the doppler and its coming. Its not too far away. So were ready. Were prepared. Were under an awning. So hey were cover, were on bourbon street. But yeah, all of the media there, they are making other plans today. Yesterday though it was a pretty big event and its a big event in any super bowl and that is media day. And, of course, the harbaugh brothers are in town. They got a lot of attention and scrutiny. The new Orleans Times counted smiles during the media session. The 49ers jim harbaugh smiled 18 times. They actually counted this. His brother john from baltimore 47. So hey, whats up, jim . Each brother, though, they praised the other. Said it many times that i think im half the coach that he is. Im proud of what hes done. Proud of the accomplishments. Im very impressed with their team. Both want to desperately win and be part of a championship. Great thrill of winning. But we both need our victory here this week. The harbaughs will be together again friday for a joint News Conference and there is word that they may have dinner tonight. Man, i would love to be in on that conversation. Bet you theyre not talking about football. Okay, lawrence. Lets take a look at the weather. You can see my hair. We have been talking about this the last couple of days and the humidity, you can always tell with this hair i have my umbrella ready because rain is coming. You may need more than that, michelle. Boy, we have quite a storm. Get the guys to gather around there and check your monitor because our highdef Doppler Radar is picking up on some very impressive rainfall out there. Look at this alone of storms thats headed right toward michelle. Its going to be the next hour or so. Wouldnt be surprised if they pick up showers, likely to see some thunderstorms embedded in there lightning strikes and its going to get ripping with heavy rain for a while. Around the bay area its quiet outside mostly clear skies. 50s in pacifica. High pressure dominating our weather. It will be warmer outside as much as 4 to 7 degrees warmer than yesterdays highs so plan on numbers up into the 60s. How long will it stay that way . What about that rain . Well talk about that coming up. Gianna . Lets go live right now to the Golden Gate Bridge toll plaza where traffic is cruising right along no delays to report right now as you work your way out of marin county into San Francisco. They did do the lane changes just a little while ago and you can see, traffic is free flowing as you work your way in both directions through there. Caltrans just wrapped up some construction as you work your way westbound 80 between central and powell. All lanes open traffic clear towards the bay bridge toll plaza. Still a couple of hot spots in the south bay. We have southbound 280 connector to northbound 85. That will be closed until 6 00. Also eastbound 237 thats closed at least to southbound 880 that will be there until 6 00. Lets go back to Michelle Griego in new orleans. Its note all about football and partying in new orleans. Nope. A couple of Santa Clara Police officers are actually making their way into town to learn a Little Something from the department here. And cbs 5 reporter cate caugiran is in our newsroom with more on that. Good morning. Reporter actually, michelle, i have moved over to santa clara. Its going to be the new home to the 49ers and once this stadium opens its doors to fans, crowd control will be a new issue for santa clara pd to tackle. So the department is keeping its eye on the future not just with the 9ers move but bringing a super bowl here in 2016. But before even that can happen, the city needs to prove that it can handle a massive event like that. And santa clara neighbors agree this is a good move for their Police Department. Depending on the culture or, you know, the rivalry it can get rowdy. Checking the culture of whats going on inside the crowd, definitely keep fans and families safe and create a culture families want to come out to. Reporter two officers will be paid to go to the super bowl training session. A former police chief will go and paying his own way. Tree training comes at a perfect time the training comes at a perfect time. Mardi gras is also going on in conjunction with the super bowl so the Police Department there is handling twice the crowd and from what we have been hearing they have been doing a good job. Cate caugiran, cbs 5. Michelle, i was in new orleans last april. And you dont have to go very far to see some of the remnants and some of the buildings that are still down because of Hurricane Katrina and i know you took a little tour as well, didnt you . Yeah. We did. We took a tour around new orleans. A lot of people go to the French Quarter. They will go to Jackson Square, they will go to the popular tourist destinations. But we took a little stroll through uptown and when i say uptown, i mean up the river. And a lot of people there, they take pride in their community. When the Tourism Department does commercials, they normally show like the downtown French Quarter area. But they tend to leave out some of the more important neighborhoods that surround the city. My name is terrence higgins. Born and raised here in new orleans. And right now, were uptown. Mixed incomes, mixed ethnicities. You can walk two blocks that way and youll be like in a higher scale neighborhood and two blocks that way will be just a little bit of the ghetto. The demographics is wide. This area didnt flood during katrina. This is high ground. Its almost like the safest place in new orleans. People are souping it up as fast as they can so if you can find some old house for a cheap price it behooves you to snatch it and renovate it and Property Value is going to skyrocket. So its a vital part of the city, man. People dont really get to see it, and a lot of history, too. So this is another part of new orleans. Reporter it certainly has a lot of history. We were talking to him yesterday and he actually said since hurricane sandy, the value of his home has gone up threefold which is good. It means that this city and uptown is rebuilding. The Mission District today, its part of mayor lees effort to keep drinking from becoming a problem on super bowl sunday. Police chief greg suhr and the fire chief will join the mayor this afternoon visiting merchants in the mission to talk about cracking down on alcohol. 5 09. San Francisco Police are taking a new look at a cold case involving a child who disappeared 29 years ago. The renewed search sent officers to the haightashbury neighborhood. They are searching around a house on masonic avenue near page street there and cbs 5 reporter anne makovec is at the scene with what neighbors remember about the time when Kevin Collins went missing many years ago. Ann. Reporter anyone who is around the bay area or california remembers the Kevin Collins case and now it is all centered on the duplex here behind me. They found some bones there. Now, the preliminary Analysis Shows that they were animal bones. But police say that further analysis of the bones is necessary. Theyre not saying a whole lot else this morning. Kevin collins last seen about a block from here on the way home from basketball practice back in 84 on oak street. Witnesses say he was pushed into a car with two teenagers wearing mohawks. Police arent saying why they have renewed their search for kevin. But we know cadaver dogs did indicate that there were bones beneath the concrete floor of a garage in this duplex here on masonic and police said a man who lived in the house at the time did match the description of a man seen talking to ken. That person has sense died. We did speak with a neighbor though who knew the two men who lived here in 84. I dont know if they did. I dont know. But im just saying that they were investigated by the police since kevin was taken. They had the dog, a black dog, and they were taken to the to be questioned and they were let go. Reporter yes. Never charged in this case. Police also say the people who live in the house now are not suspects. Kevins mother lives in concord. When it companies it these potential false leads, new developments, she says that she is simply numb. She says, obviously, she would like closure in this case. But she doesnt want to find kevin like this. Live in San Francisco, anne makovec, cbs 5. Gun control will take center stage again today on capitol hill. The Senate Judiciary committee will hold a hearing on the issue and the witnesses include captain mark kelly husband of former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords representing the other side Wayne Lapierre the executive Vice President for the National Rifle association.

This afternoon, though, we are going to see 50s coastside but maybe some mid60s in the warmest spots inland so milder weather outside and its going to stick around over the next few days as this ridge of High Pressure really slides across the west coast and kind of camps out for the remainder at least of the week and it looks like then after that maybe some changes then maybe next week we start to talk about the possibility of some rain.

The best time for new orleans is the first thing in the morning like now. Its very quiet, easy to get around. Thats very nice. This is a bit like San Francisco. This is a city built on tourism. When the tourists come for mardi gras or, you know, to see the sights or make movies or whatever they come for, its always good for the economy of the city. A little offbeat city.
