Ktvu fox 2s kara lu joins us now. Reporter we are at north first and clayton in san jose right now and you can see some of the work going on behind us and you can hear the sound of generators as well. All this means, a heads up to commuters. They are no Light Rail Service today between civic center station and saint james station and the disruption is scheduled to last for four days while workers make these repairs. So from now until sunday, theres no service, regular or express, between civic center station and saint james station. The vta will be providing a bus bridge. Also two bus lines, 66th and 181, will be rerouted to north Fourth Street and for anyone driving through this area, there will be lane closures on north first street in both directions near the japan town ire station. Now, the vta says this work is necessary because it recently discovered a crack in a device that allows trains to transfer from one set of rails to another and if the problem isnt fixed, the trains could potentially derail so, again, a heads up to commuters this morning, light rail disruption here in san jose going on from today until sunday. Kara, thank you for that update. Bart may be closer to restoring service to the between the North Concord and pittsburg stations. It will only run train shuttles between the two stations. During a meeting yesterday, though, bart officials said they still have not been able to pinpoint whats causing power surges on the tracks so now putting together a team of seven new experts. A group of engineers, supervisor, managers, a small group from the disciplines involved, primarily maintenance and engineering, the Electrical Group and rolling stop and shops. The electrical surges started appearing last week, damaging about 50 bart cars and putting them out of service. Those cars are still being repaired. Commuters who ride on munis newest buses are experiencing fewer breakdowns. According to miny, its hybrid buses are nearly twice as reliable as its older buses. They went into Service Three years ago and muni says the newer buses traveled up to 12,000 miles before they required major maintenance. By contrast, the older buses broke down or required maintenance about every 6000 miles. Time now is 5 08. They may look timid but neighbors say they are dangerous. In 20 minutes, more on the growing coyote problem in San Francisco and what neighbors want done to keep them safe. But first, a holdup with the commercial crabbing season just one day before it was supposed to get underway. The reason fishermen wont be out on the water this weekend. Good morning. We are looking at a commute where traffic is actually doing okay on the Golden Gate Bridge. Looks good heading south to the toll plaza. And the friday weather looks good. Although a little bit more in the way of coastal low clouds. We will talk about that and also the weekend forecast. There are changes for sunday, especially sunday evening. Welcome back. It is 12 minutes after 5 00. We are still talking about the crab season, even though the commercial crab season officially kicks off tomorrow, there is, again, a bit of a holdup. Fishermen say it has to do with the quality and price of the crab. Now, wholesale buyers want Quality Assurance before agreeing to a price per pound with the fishermen. Crab season, of course, was delayed for four months because of a high level of demowic acid that posed a health risk to humans but with it be this late in the season crabs are starting to shed their hard shells. Thats why buyers are concerned that the crabs may not yield quality meat leaving many fishermen wondering if its worth it. We like to know what we are going to make. They could say you guys got crab on the boat, we are going to give you 2. 50, a quarter below what oregon and washington started at. Test boats will drop crab pots tomorrow morning and on monday the crabs will be cooked. Buyers will crack them open to check our meaty they are and fishermen and merchants say they are waiting for the results of that quality test so hopefully the crab season can get going. Yeah. Time now is 5 13. One of the first real signs of spring is now starting to show up in washington, d. C. Our doug luzader live with more on why so many people are flocking to the nations capitol this morning. Looks beautiful behind you, my friend. It is beautiful. You only have a few days to experience the Cherry Blossoms in all their glory but it does transform things here in washington. The trick is figuring out when these things are actually going to arrive. This is very nearly full bloom along the tidal basin in washington. These tiny flowers that light up the landscape with the ribbon of pink and white. Try for any vantage you can to take them in. They wont be around for long. Its special when you come on a Beautiful Day like this in washington. Really nice. They are really beautiful. I wasnt expecting the pink and the white and to be able to look out and see all around the tidal basin is really pretty. Its really lovely. Reporter really lovely and just a little temperamental because while you can make an educated guess as to when they will arrive, for the National Park service its always something of a guessing game based on the weather and this year the forecast kept changing and they are early. Picture the blossoms being in an oven which we are counting the degree days, the amount of warm temperatures we have and keep adding them up. Reporter and they have been at this for years. The Cherry Blossoms and the washington monument, what more ideal subject for an artist than these japanese flowers in america. Reporter the brushes and canvas has been edged out by selfie sticks, about everywhere you look. But this is an opportunity for folks in washington to put aside their differences, if only for a few minutes, although you cant please everyone. First time for the Cherry Blossoms and so far i am a little disappointed, a little underwhelmed. Reporter well, in fairness, they may not have been at peak bloom at that moment but right now they are and because they cant always predict these things all that well when they are actually going to arrive, they have a Cherry Blossom festival that lasts for about a month and that way they are pretty sure that at some point during that festival the blossoms will actually arrive. Back to you guys. One of those things i definitely have to do to go to d. C. , see the Cherry Blossoms. It looks absolutely amazing behind you. Looks gorgeous. Sounds like the fall leaves where people try to time the peak . Reporter youre right. And you know what . When this is over, it kind of looks like the fall leaves in that this ground, the grass you see around me, it will almost look like it has snowed when all of these things fall. Love it, love it. Stay away from the selfie sticks, by the way, doug, pretty dangerous. Exactly. Thank you, my friend. Time now is 5 16. Check in on your traffic this morning. As we go to sally, i want to remind people because i was talking to you a little bit during dougs report about the japanese tea garden. You dont have to go to washington, d. C. They have a huge grove of Cherry Blossom trees there. They do. In golden gate park. Good knowledge there, pam. Very good. Yeah. Looks like you dont have to take that five hour flight back to d. C. Good morning, everybody. Lets go out and take a look at what we have now, traffic is actually doing pretty well around the bay area. We are going to start with a look at interstate 880 and you can see the traffic is moving along nicely. There are no major issues here driving through the area. Also looking at San Francisco, highway 101 northbound, that looks good, northbound 101, southbound 101 getting out of the city. Want to mention the south bay and the freeways there are looking very nice. Its off to a good start. We are thinking that since today is good friday, not everyone does go to the office, we might have lighter than usual conditions. We will see about that. 5 17. Lets go to steve. Sal, thank you. Step outside and see that theres a little bit of fog out there and a little bit more than yesterday. We had patchy low clouds yesterday but they are kind of regrouping a little bit more so today and temperatures, well, they will be about the same coast and bay but they are going to be up a few degrees inland, not a big difference, just maybe one or 2 degrees. But you can see some of that low cloud deck off in the distance. We have some changes for sunday. Sunday into monday, especially for the Sierra Nevada so keep that in mind. Are you going to work . I dont know. Maybe in a second. Did i tell you about the what . There it goes. My computer is loading. There we go. Lots of information. Fog, sun, nice friday, saturday, warm inland. Its okay by the coast. Cooler easter, Easter Sunday morning looks okay, sunday night into monday, windy and in fact temperatures will come down pretty fast and that breeze will crank up. Now, this wont be a precipitation producer for us but it will be in the sierra and Southern California, again that will be sunday into monday. San francisco starting off at 51 degrees and then some patchy low clouds, we will go mostly sunny at noon. High today only 63, same as yesterday. You can see some high clouds continuing to just rotate down from the northwest, 40s, 50s, we are running a little bit warmer on those lows, south bay temps upper 40s, 50s as well. If theres enough of a breeze or even some of that low cloud deck thats keeping a lot of these temperatures up, especially over by the coast. There was a little bit of a breeze at sfo last hour, a 10, now turned more southerly. A few high clouds in the north, fog near the coast, so coast fog, sunny and nice, a little cooler by the coast or about the same. One or 2degree warmup inland. It will be one of those patterns where probably only people in weather notice it. 60s by the bay, upper 60s, low to mid70s inland. Not much change saturday, then clouds roll in and the wind picks up sunday into monday. There will be snow up in the sierra sunday afternoon, evening into early monday. And, again, thats that system steve where it comes around. Its coming in from Eastern Oregon. Right, okay. And cold enough to bring more snow, good. Yes. Absolutely. Steve, thank you.

Well, the Oakland Raiders<\/a> are facing a rent increase. Today the Coliseum Authority<\/a> is set to vote on the teams new lease agreement. Under the contract the raiders will pay 3. 5 million to play in the coliseum next season and practice in alameda. Last year the team paid 925,000 to use both facilities. The Alameda County<\/a> board of supervisor and Oakland City Council<\/a> also have to approve the deal. The meeting gets underway at 9 00 this morning. Well, the dark knight and the man of steel face off in batman versus superman dawn of justice this weekend but the d. C. Characters from the universe are also joining the fight. This is bat vigilante, like a one man ring of terror. Nobody cares about clark kent taking on the batman. That looks good. The story picks up in metropolis where concerns of sermons unchecked actions leave many skeptical including bruce wayne and election lieu author lex luthor. What we have done is created a fictional reality in this and its fun. Thats what comic books and mythology has always done. It is a world in which incredible beings exist to answer questions which we have in fun ways or expose things so we do ask questions. By the way, batman versus superman is rated pg13. Time now is 5 25. And a family held up inside their south bay home. The search underway for the men responsible. Information now that americans were killed in the brussels terror attacks. We will have the very latest on the victims and the hunt for the terrorists behind those attacks. Im beginning to its beginning to get crowded on the roads as you can see but so far traffic on the bridge just okay getting into San Francisco<\/a>. A little bit more fog, coastal variety, so other than that, it looks like a nice friday. Changes are starting on sunday, especially sunday afternoon. There it is, more on that, the wind will pick up. I just picked us up 2 breakfast croissants for 4, when this bear attacked. With one swipe, it devoured one of the croissants. Then jack showed up, and took care of the beast, so i could escape. And thats what happened to your breakfast croissant. And yours . It survived. Enjoy freshly cracked egg with ham and bacon. Or sausage. Two tasty croissants at an even tastier 4 price. Its a deal youll devour. Im brian flores in for dave clark. Im pam cook. Thank you for waking us with up waking up with us. Its about 5 30. A nice day tomorrow . Yes, changes sunday. The spring winds come in and, again, we have a lot of windsurfers and sailors in the bay area. They like this time of year. Sunday afternoon should be to their liking or sunday night into monday. If youre up in the sierra, be careful, could be rapidly developing showers, thundershowers, even snow showers by sunday afternoon. So, i mean, this system doesnt have a lot of moisture but there will be plenty of very steep and pretty good lift coming in from this low. But for us today its kind of quiet, patchy low clouds over oakland. After that mostly sunny, nice, then go for upper 60s today, maybe a slight cooldown because theres a little bit more in the way of low clouds and fog but still temperatures, they have been upper 60s around oakland or near 70 degrees and inland temps will come up a degree or two but there are a few high clouds. The lows are up, 40s and low 50s for many, more so than we have seen. Mid40s for many, no valleys in there, novato, sebastopol, sonoma not much of the difference. Our change is developing up here, it will drop down here and then start moving into the sierra and eventually over Southern California<\/a> which may give them rain next week, we are probably on the edge of rain but the wind will pick up. Coast fog, sunny and nice, cooler by the water but slight warmup for those inland. A little mini, if you will, summer pattern, 60s by the water, mid70s inland. 5 30. What do you have, sal . Looks pretty good so far on the commute, steve. Good deal. Not a lot going on, which is nice. Go out and take a look at some of these pictures. You can see the traffic is moving along nicely. Usually by now we have more traffic at the bay bridge. Doesnt look like the metering lights are on yet which means traffic is a little lighter. It is goods friday and that means some schools have the day off, lighter conditions. If youre driving in the Santa Clara Valley<\/a> we are looking at the road sensors here, we are off to a good start. At 5 31, lets go back to the desk. Thank you. New developments this morning in the brussels terror attacks. The u. S. Announced that americans were among those killed in tuesdays explosions. Ktvu fox 2s christien kafton, christien, you have been following this story. You just watched a News Conference<\/a> of secretary of state john kerry about the attacks. What can you tell us . Secretary of state john kerry is confirming americans were killed in those blasts. The high governmental source adds police two americans were killed but so far the state department not identifying them or clarifying whether they were killed at the airport or subway bombings. An unknown number of americans are still unaccounted for this morning, including a brother and sister from new york state just arrived at the airport in brussels and were talking on the phone with a relative at the time of the explosions. There was also a couple from tennessee who the state department at first thought was found safe at a hospital, that turned out to be incorrect. Kerry is in brussels for counterrism talks with the counterterrorism talks with the leaders. On tuesday lives were viciously cut short and hundreds were injured. It is with irreplaceable loss in mind that we will renew our vow to come together against a common enemy in order to keep our people safe. Belgium police have now released a sketch of a man wanted in connection with the subway bombing. He was seen on Surveillance Video<\/a> with the suicide bomber and holding a large bag shortly before the explosion. Police suspect he may have been involved. So far Belgium Police<\/a> have arrested six people in raids across the country. Investigators say they also found a large amount of explosives and other bomb making materials at what is believed to be a safe house. So far investigators say there is no connection between the paris bombings still a lot of developments happening in this case. We will continue to monitor the developments and bring them to you throughout the morning. Thank you. Police in campbell say a group of armed men broke into a home while a family was sleeping looking for marijuana. The masked men broke a back window and entered the house on elwood drive early yesterday morning. They confronted a man in the home, stole some valuables and then took off. Investigators believe the robbers started the home targeted the home because marijuana is being cultivated there but we talked to the victim who says the robbers were looking for computers and phones not marijuana. He says he does grow pot for medicinal purposes. The Home Invasion<\/a> has neighbors upset. Its one of those things you dont expect to happen in your neighborhood or a neighborhood like this. Stunned. Nothing ever happens like that here. This breakin comes as the city of campbell recently passed an ordinance banning marijuana grow houses including people with a medical marijuana card. Police in gilroy have arrested a man on suspicion of a series of child molestations dating back 15 years. 46yearold Antonio Garcia<\/a> was booked into the Santa Clara County<\/a> jail yesterday.

He has been booked into the martinez jail. San francisco pet owners went to city hall yesterday to ask for help to contain the citys growing coyote population. Coyotes have killed at least two small dogs in the city in the past seven months. Jeff marquees terrier mix was one of them. Last year only 15 coyotes in San Francisco<\/a>, now they are everywhere. I think its time to either euthanize them or at least inject them with some kind of birth control. People have tried throughout the country to eliminate coyotes and they just come back. Parks and rec Officials Say<\/a> killing and relocating the coyotes is not an option. They are urging pet owners to coexist by keeping their pets indoors and cutting off any Food Supplies<\/a> to the coyotes. Marin county sheriffs deputies will start wearing body cameras as soon as this summer. The marin independent journal says on wednesday the county approved the purchase of 100 cameras at a cost of about 916,000.

The sheriff says the use of body cameras will help allow for clear understanding of incidents and enhanced community trust. A long Time Homeless<\/a> service in downtown san rafael may have to move or shut down all together. For the past 35 years the Ritter Center<\/a> has been helping the homeless and low income families with things like food, showers, laundry and medical care. But the city may be forcing ritter to either move out of the downtown area or drastically reduce the number of people it serves. The problem is the homeless congregate close to where any businesses and residents are located. Ritter says its willing to move with the citys help but it wont be easy. We cant move because we cant find a suitable place. Its a real catch22. Tough enough living out there on the streets and then to not have a place to take a shower and wash your clothes and look like a productive, normal person, that would make it more difficult. I take thieves into their gates with our merchandise, we collect uncapped needles in our parking lots. We have to pick up feces in our parking lots. Reporter in may the city council is expected to decide whether to close or limit services at the Ritter Center<\/a>. A new report show marins coastal communities could benefit from gps data to help detect the potential threat of a tsunami. Now, according to the marin independent journal the Realtime Data<\/a> would help speed up warning times by almost 20 minutes allowing more people to evacuate and get to safety. Monitoring stations around the world already use gps data to determine how earthquakes can affect landscapes. State figures show more than 100 tsunamis have hit californias coast since the 1800s. Cal fire already gearing up for the 2016 wildfire season. They have called in 400 seasonal firefighters to start the season early. Cal fire normally doesnt start hiring firefighters until late april or early may but this year they are able to start early thanks to drought funding from the state. The agency says it expects this wildfire season to be milder than the previous two seasons because of the amount of rain and snow we have received. The bay area among one of the Fastest Growing<\/a> regions in the nation when it comes to population. New data shows the bay area added more than 60,000 residents between 2014 and 2015. This includes marin, San Francisco<\/a>, contra costa, alameda and san mateo counties. The biggest growth was seen in the east bay. Alameda had the second highest growth in the state, contra costa came in at number 5. Both counties grew about 1 1 2 . Backlash continues to brew in dublin over ikeas announcement to build its third california location there. The Swedish Furniture<\/a> maker is thats the wrong video, obviously but said to construct a 339,000 square foot store along interstate 580 and hacienda drive. Now resident right side in the area residents in the area are taking to social media and signing a petition as traffic as the reason for the opposition but with the City Councils<\/a> approval on the project last week, ikea will move forward with its plans to open the store by 2018. Legislation that would increase access to gender neutral rest rooms in San Francisco<\/a> has been approved with plenty of support. The legislation introduced in january would require city businesses to change the signs on all single occupant rest rooms to make them gender neutral. It would also require the city to include gender neutral rest room facilities in new public construction and major renovation projects. The change will not only benefit transgender people but also parents with opposite gender children. The legislation will now head to the full board of supervisor for a vote. And just one day after the North Carolina<\/a> governor signed a bill preventing cities and counties in that state from passing their own antidiscrimination rules legislators have said no to the bill that would allow for transgender individuals to use public rest rooms aligned with their gender identity. And now Big Companies<\/a> in the state including apple, pay pal and American Airlines<\/a> have all issued statements critical of the new law. The ncaa, by the way, made a statement vowing to honor what North Carolina<\/a> does next. Students at San Francisco<\/a> State University<\/a> are looking to the citys Human Rights Commission<\/a> to help them preserve the ethnic studies department. They want the commission to write a letter of solidarity that identifies a lack of sufficient funding as a human rights violation. Supporters say the program is in danger of losing about 40 of its budget and half of its teachers. The Administration Says<\/a> reserve funding ran out and that the department has been overspending. How are we overspending if we are already in the red before the semester starts . How are we overspending if we dont have enough money to make copies and the fact that president wong continues to state there will not be any faculty layoffs, i have already been told i am going to be laid off. The college of ethnic study serves about 6000 students. It was the first of its kind in the country when it was established during the 1960s. We are learning more details about the arrest of the suspected bearded bandit. I said to myself, that looks like the Bearded Bank Robber<\/a> that ive seen on channel 2 news. Coming up at 6 00, how a ktvu viewer helped police track down the man accused of robbing nearly a dozen banks. Reports of two men who allegedly committed several crimes in hayward, including an alleged carjacking and kidnapping. Good morning.

Hemorrhoid. These are the worst, right . Im gonna buy them. Boom. Ill take them. Impulse buy. Ommmmmmmmmmm. American express presents the blue cash everyday card with no annual fee. Its all happening. Cash back on purchases. Here we go backed by the service and security of american express. Welcome back. New this morning, it was say frightening situation in a hayward neighborhood where police are on the scene after a reported Home Invasion<\/a> and carjacking. Ktvu fox 2s Paul Chambers<\/a> joins us live now with the few details we know so far. Hey, paul. Reporter good morning. There are a lot of layers to this story. We are trying to get more details confirmed about this. We did hear about Police Scanner<\/a> recording so we are trying to make sure it is confirmed. This happened after midnight, a resident on barry avenue here in hayward called police to report a Home Invasion<\/a> robbery. Once officers arrived on scene, they saw a vehicle with what appeared to be four suspects inside. Officers located the vehicle and thats when the driver tried to get away. The car later crashed about a half a mile from the Police Station<\/a> at the intersection of myrtle street and wynton avenue. Officers talked to the two women inside the vehicle. They claim they were not only carjacked but kidnapped by the two male suspects. The same men were also responsible for committing the Home Invasion<\/a> robbery at the barry avenue address. Now, we have reached out to Hayward Police<\/a> out here and we are looking for a statement and confirmation. As soon as we get that, of course we will pass it along to you. Once again we are told these two men went on a Home Invasion<\/a>, then they did an alleged carjacking and a kidnapping and then ended in a crash and once again brian and pam, when we find out more information, we will pass it along to you. Paul, thank you for that update. Right now it is 5 45. Sal, have we come up with a friday traffic jam theme . Sal is listening so something intently. Sal. Good morning, yes. Sorry. Just reading something. Hes reading. And i was not paying attention. I was wondering what are friday traffic jams . We havent figured it out, although i think, im looking back here, the people who sit here i made a suggestion to you. What are we going with with traffic jams . Anyone know . I think we are going to do spring songs. Theres the bus back there. Hes walking around. Brandon, how are you . There you go. What are we doing for sals traffic jams . Poor guy. I suggested bring him up here. Good morning, everybody. What is going on here. Theres not a lot going on trafficwise, im looking now at the chp page and i think its because it is good friday and some people are not going, some schools i do know have the day off and the Financial Markets<\/a> are closed and thats going to make for fewer people on the roads. Go out and take a look at what we have now. This is a look at the commute, interstate 880 north and southbound, traffic is moving well. I know this is about the time when some schools have spring break and that also makes it easier for the commute as people arent going to school. People might be somewhere else. Lets move along to the san mateo bridge and westbound 92 getting out to the highrise. That traffic looks easy so far. The bay bridge metering lights are on but theres not a big backup at the toll plaza. As we look at the maps or not the maps. Im sorry. We are going to 280 next, this would be interstate 280 in san jose, northbound 280 traffic right there, right through downtown looks good. We are hoping for a very nice and light commute on this friday before easter. At 5 47, the weather may be changing this weekend. Lets bring steve . Thats correct, sal, not until sunday but thats correct. Good morning, everybody, on this friday, we have some low clouds around, we will take care of some business here coming up in just a second. We have been talking about shasta, we have information on Lake Oroville<\/a> coming up here in just a moment, otherwise mostly clear, a few high clouds in the north bay, maybe patchy fog on the coast but overall looks like another day, very similar to yesterday, slight warmup, i think for some inland. This came across from dave allen. Lake oroville spillway open to make room for more water. The lake is filling three times faster than draining. How about that . Yes, that is good news. But then Debbie Downer<\/a> tweeted me no, im kidding. Its linda. Yeah, lake was empty in december, sadly we have to give our water to los angeles so it will be empty soon. Well, thats not true. Some of it does go to Southern California<\/a>, but hydro electricity is also used and im sure it will be good for boating. We are there in march already, thats good. We still have april and may and also the snow runoff. So quiet today, pretty quiet, i should say, be night friday, saturday and then changes, big changes on sunday, Easter Sunday<\/a>, okay in the morning but then it will be windy, cooler with clouds coming in and a possibility of some snow showers up in the sierra sunday afternoon, maybe even Sacramento Valley<\/a> could get some activity. I think we are just a little too far west. This system will be coming over land, not water, so doesnt really favor us. 40s, 50s on your current temps, running a little bit warmer, east bay temps mid40s to upper 40s, alamo is in there, walnut creek, lafayette, baraga, black hawk says 51. 27 in truckee, 45 ukiah, 54 monterey. We have higher clouds over us here so these systems are dropping right now, you can see coming down out of the northwest, the change we are waiting for is up here, its going to move in and start to move over, Eastern Oregon<\/a> drops into the Sierra Nevada<\/a>, we will be on the windy side, not the moisture side but might even produce some above average rain down in Southern California<\/a> after everything said and done by next week. It wont be probably until the middle of next week. Coast fog, then mostly sunny and nice, a little cooler coast, slight bump up some inland, not a lot. 60s, low mid to upper upper 60s to a few low mid70s while inland but coast fog sunny, not much change saturday, and then clouds start to roll in and the wind picks up sunday into monday. Our best bed for any bet for any rain would be late tuesday into wednesday. Then it looks like march goes out like a little lamb. Funny. Thank you. Came in like a lion. No question about that. So its starting march to ending march is where that goes. I couldnt remember which month. We are into march here, already april, pam. No. I mean, i didnt remember the i know. Goodness. All right.

Additional resources and staffing to combat Sexual Harassment<\/a> and assaults on campus. The new plan comes after several high profile harassment cases including a Law School Dean<\/a> who resigned earlier this month and an assistant basketball coach who was fired just last week. The plan includes more staffing to get cases resolved quickly and more funding for Mental Health<\/a> and advocacy for victims. This effort really is a way to address all constituencies across campus in a way that will have more of a broader impact, so awareness is at a deeper level across all constituencies on campus. Got it. Cal says it will likely spend millions of dollars over the next few years on these initiatives. Corinthian colleges has been hit with a 1. 2 billion judgment for duping students. A judge sided with californias attorney general and found the Company Provided<\/a> misleading information to students and investors. Corinthian ran several dozen schools in the state including heald college. The award includes 820 million in restitution payments for students but its unlikely they will see any money since corinthian filed for bankruptcy last year. The entertainment world is mourning the death of comedian garry shandling. Im dating a homeless woman. Its easier to talk her into staying over.

Im pam cook. Good morning, everybody. Im brian flores in for dave clark. Lets get your friday started with a check on your weather and traffic. Steve is here. Shaping up to be a pretty nice day today. A lot more fog on the coast, so other than that, it will be a nice day inland, for sure. Temperatures, though, little cooler to about the same as we had yesterday, coast and bay and some of the low cloud deck continuing to march in. Its not solid or sold out but there much more so than we had yesterday at this time but i dont think it makes much of a difference inland. Take a look towards your Easter Sunday<\/a> forecast. It will start off okay but then we will start to see increasing clouds, low and high variety and then that breeze is really going to pick up, especially in the afternoon and evening, so make those plans early because by the evening, afternoon, i think the wind machine will be howling. Low clouds for San Francisco<\/a> starting off at 51 degrees, we will go 63 today, same as yesterday and normal 62, in fact, we will take a look at climatology or climate data for today for San Francisco<\/a>. 63, 51, average is 62, 49 so youre right there. 83 the record high in 1952 and way back 1907 for the record low at 38. A few high clouds to the north and this is keeping the lows where they are now. 40s and 50s. They are much warmer than they have been even on the peninsula, upper 40s, 50s, san mateo, san carlos, woodside is one of the coolest there at 41. Mostly sunny but that fog and low clouds is going to keep the coast on the cooler side with","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"archive.org","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","width":"800","height":"600","url":"\/\/ia601205.us.archive.org\/5\/items\/KTVU_20160325_120000_KTVU_Mornings_on_2_at_5am\/KTVU_20160325_120000_KTVU_Mornings_on_2_at_5am.thumbs\/KTVU_20160325_120000_KTVU_Mornings_on_2_at_5am_000001.jpg"}},"autauthor":{"@type":"Organization"},"author":{"sameAs":"archive.org","name":"archive.org"}}],"coverageEndTime":"20240624T12:35:10+00:00"}
