Well, two blocks away, there was a house fire at 8 00 last night. That was on alabama street. Now, no one was home at the time. So nobody was injured. And firefighters were able to get that out once neighbors alerted them to that fire. But that fire is also suspicious. Firefighters dont know the cause of either of these fires. But again, investigations are under way right now at both of those scenes. Live in vallejo, anne makovec, cbs 5. Thank you.

Nobody injured, most of the damage was caused by smoke and water. New this morning a suspected drunk driver behind bars this morning after a wild overnight chase. Cbs 5 reporter cate caugiran is in San Franciscos Mission District to explain what the driver did that caught the officers attention. Reporter actually it was a what the driver did is she went on an onramp that was closed and the chp officer that was standing by tried to pull her over and this is actually where it all ended. We are at 17th and south van ness where now crews are trying to clean up the damage of where this whole thickenedded. The driver ended up crashing into a pole knocking over this traffic cabinet and subsequently knocking out all the lights or traffic lights in the area. First video from earlier you can see the damage the driver caused. Chp says it started when the suspect tried to go on that closed freeway onramp. They tried to pull her over at ninth street but she kept going exiting off mission and van ness and thats when the chase began and things got worse. That driver hit a parked car, that car hit a cyclist and then the driver hit another parked car and a pole and knocking over the lights in the area. But back out live, crews have been efforting trying to put or basically rewire, recircuit these lights so they can get it going. Flares notify drivers traffic lights are still out. The pedestrian is expected to be okay. He sustained minor injuries because it was the car that rolled on him not the woman hitting him directly. The driver will face charges including dui. It will be her fourth in the past 10 years including trying to avoid police, as well. So an investigation is ongoing into each individual traffic collision, as well. Live in San Franciscos Mission District, cate caugiran, cbs 5. Thank you. Something went terribly wrong when a group took its nightly walk in the east bay hills.

As we look toward the afternoon, some changing weather. It will be some mild temperatures but look at these spiraling clouds off the coastline. That is that area of low pressure slowly working its way in our direction increasing clouds throughout the day today. And then it looks like overnight tonight, into tomorrow, rain becoming more likely. So more clouds out there not as warm as we head toward the afternoon today but not bad.

The plane had the perfect take off right there. A few obstacles. Went back to its airport and is doing just fine. Why not . The highway seems like a logical runway. Unless youre a car right behind it. Lets go out live. We have nothing like planes on the road. Pretty quiet. We dont have any major incidents. We just checked in with chp.

Lawrence is gearing up for big changes in the forecast. Yeah. I like to see the rain make its way back to the bay area. Its been very nice the last few days, but changes are coming our way as High Pressure finally is giving way to some storm clouds off the coastline. Right now its a quiet start to the day mostly clear skies inside the bay and along the coastline but starting to see some patchy fog in the north bay valleys. This afternoon, more clouds will start to roll in. The temperatures a little bit cooler but still mild and then rain likely to make a return tonight and into tomorrow. So with that in mind, here you go. High pressure bringing you one last day of sunshine. You can already see a lot of clouds moving through southern california. But then this low is going to start to approach the coastline so the clouds are going to be on the increase throughout the day today. Should stay dry but tonight we are going to see the rain developing and thats going to open the door for a series of storms to roll through the bay area right through the weekend. Lets see if we can time it out. Starting out mostly clear this morning, then through the day clouds streaming in. Staying dry into the evening hours. The commute going home looks okay then late tonight early tomorrow morning we see a few showers developing out there and i think rain becoming more likely as we head throughout the day tomorrow. So it looks like things are going to be unsettled and possibly wet as we head into the next 48 hours. Maybe an inch of rain in the santa cruz mountains. Half inch of rain in San Francisco. And almost threequarters there into santa rosa. So look toward the afternoon, enjoy the dry day. Sunshine and high clouds drifting in temperatures into the 60s. The next couple of days though we change gears back into that wet weather pattern. Showers into saturday a stronger storm saturday night into sunday. Showers and unsettled weather as we head in toward next week. Thats a look at weather. Getting good here [ laughter ] back to you. Good is a relative term. All right, thank you.
