to one north bay school strict following the arrest of a teacher. ahead, the accusation she's facing and the response from the superintendent this morning. plus, a deadly hit-and-run in san francisco overnight. the commute impact and investigation unfolding. this is "today in the bay." >> good monday morning. thanks for starting your day with us. i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. we want to go straight to the breaking news this morning that we have for you. oh, we are going to weather first. let's get a look at the forecast. meteorologist vianey arana is tracking what we can expect. >> we're going to bring you an update on that news, for sure. weather-wise, when it comes to the roads, it could get a little tricky at some point. the reason is because we do have shower activity and radar that is going to show us some of that activity. it looks like my graphics are down, so we're going to get a look at some live cameras right now in downtown san jose. notice, we do still have for the most part dry conditions, but

we've got some drizzle coming down. that's from a system that moved in late overnight and into early today. here is a closer look in san franciscoment. we are expecting periods of rain and then we get another system tonight. we are following breaking news out of san francisco where the chp is investigating a deadly hit-and-run that happened around 1:30 this morning when a car struck a pedestrian in the lanes of westbound interstate 80 near the 5th street off-ramp. traffic was diverted and only within the past few minutes did all of the lanes finally reopen. so far, there's no vehicle description. if anyone witnessed what happened, you are asked to contact chp. let's talk about how things are right now. mike inouye is following that. >> we had everything blocked off and all sensors were red, backing up into the city. this has been a few minutes since the news broke and we have all lanes reopened. it's a very quick recovery.

as far as the traffic impact, there is basically none by the time you get over from oakland. watch the surface streets. there was a lot of activity between 5th and 4th, the 4th street on-ramp was impacted as well. i believe both the 5th street on-ramp as well as the 4th street off-ramp have reopened. there's slowing on the skyway. if you're coming from the oakland side, by the time you get across into san francisco, everything should be clear. we take a live look at the span itself, and this has been moving smoothly throughout the entire process. it's just the very tail end as you approach fremont that there will be some additional slowing. again, the crash has cleared getting off of the bay bridge. 80 westbound is reopened into san francisco. >> thanks, mike. new this morning, an east bay school district is under fire after a teacher's alleged sexual behavior with a student. now, parents want to know how the teacher was hired in the first place. >> "today in the bay"'s kris sanchez joins us from the newsroom with the superintendent's response.

>> reporter: this is a fifth grade teacher who has been working at the same school for nine years, hired after he was tried and acquitted of child molestation at a napa school. matthew shelton was charged with five felony counts of lewd acts with a child sometime in 2022 in the benicia school district. in 2007 he was arrested for allegedly touching two students inappropriately, an 8-year-old girl and a 9-year-old girl. he was acquitted. in the last few hours, the benicia unified school district superintendent released a video statement. here is part of it. >> we believe having an independent review of our systems will reinforce the comprehensiveness of our practices, and it may offer additional recommendations for consideration. we will not shy away from embracing actions that will strengthen our commitment to excellence across our operations

and service to students. >> reporter: the superintendent said that the independent review will go over the hiring and supervision of teachers and staff. it will review the district's process of how and how fast it handles complaints of impropriety, and the district will work with students and parents to make sure the parents and students are empowered to advocate for themselves should anything improper ever happen, so the district knows and they can take action. the superintendent expects the results of this independent review by the end of next week and it will be presented at the april board meeting. we will post on nbcbayarea.com so that you can see it for yourself. matthew shelton, the teacher in question, will be in court later today and we'll cover that as well. >> thank you very much. we'll continue to follow, kris. 5:05 right now. turning to decision 2024 and the race for the white house is ramping up ahead of tomorrow's presidential primaries in georgia. president joe biden's re-election campaign is bringing

in millions following last week's state of the union address. he and presumptive gop presidential nominee, former president trump, held duelling events in the peach state over the weekend. "today in the bay"'s brie jackson joins us live in washington. brie, a win in georgia will put trump one step closer to officially clinching his party's nomination. >> reporter: that's right. good morning, laura. so georgia is one of several states holding primary elections tuesday, and as you may recall, back in 2020 it was a pivotal battleground state. president biden won there by just over 12,000 votes. the rematch of the 2020 election ramping up in 2024, both president biden and former president trump making their case to voters. >> we all know donald trump sees a different america, an american story of resentment, revenge and retribution. that's not me, that's not you. >> for the good of our nation,

it is time for crooked joe biden and myself to debate. we have to debate. it's for the good of our nation. >> reporter: the two held duelling events in georgia over the weekend, where they hammered each other on a key issue, immigration. >> instead of celebrating the contribution of immigrants to our country, economy and communities, donald trump calls them vermin, poison. >> i will end the agony of our people, the plunder of our cities, the sacking of our towns, the violation of our citizens and the conquest of our country. they're conquering our country. >> reporter: former president trump also addressing the legal woes plaguing his campaign. just last week he secured a bond in the defamation case brought by e. jean carroll. >> i just posted a $91 million bond on a fake story, totally made-up story. >> reporter: president biden tackling one of voters' top concerns about his re-election

bid, his age. >> i know the vast majority of world leaders because i've around a day or two. i know i don't look it. look, i'm not a young guy. >> reporter: the biden campaign releasing this ad, while taking political jabs at his opponent. president biden is set to make a big campaign push this week. he's scheduled to travel to new hampshire, wisconsin and michigan, laura. >> very busy week ahead. thanks for the latest. a shooting on the bay bridge left one person injured, this is over the weekend. officers are still looking into that shooter. now, this happened around 8:20 saturday night. the chp saying that a woman was driving on the eastern span of the bridge, just past yerba buena island and another car pulled next to her and started shooting at the car. the woman was hit, but chp says that it was not life-threatening. the chp closed four of the five eastbound lanes for about two hours to investigate.

anyone with information is urged to call police. happening today, jewish students at uc berkeley are organizing a march to protest what they say is the school's failure to respond to anti-semitic violence on campus. it follows recent incidents, including this one two weeks ago. that's when a heated protest by palestinian supporters shut down a campus event, featuring a jewish speaker at the playhouse. about 200 protesters surrounded the building and broke inside. the school later released a statement condemning the incident. well, today marks one year since the levy broke that went water rushing into pajaro in monterey county. the majority of homes flooded, displacing about 3,500 people. it later came to light that federal officials knew for decades it was at risk for failing. emergency repairs were made on the levee, the project aimed at a more permanent solution is expected to begin later this

year. let's take a live look outside. remember the time change, folks? yeah, it is 5:09 in the morning right now. vianey arana is in for kari this morning. a little drizly on my way in. >> it was, and that's exactly what we're still seeing on radar right now. we do have some scattered activity when it comes to the sierra. meanwhile, in the pacific, this is a second storm system that is going to make a move in starting tonight. both seem to be on the weaker side of things when it comes to precipitation totals. now, right now if you notice, we have scattered activity moving through san jose, parts of sacramento, parts of san francisco, and this is going to continue kind of on and off as showers throughout the early morning. your temperature trend for the afternoon, we'll start in the 50s today and eventually we'll climb into the low to mid-60s. as far as the rain goes, eventually we'll get some breaks in sunshine, not only for san jose, but also for san francisco. we've got 50 degrees right now. you'll notice we start to get breaks in that sunshine, but we

do have another storm on the way. let's check in with mike. >> on my big board, the numbers are going up. we'll talk about the best price in the bay that we can do right now, $4.07 at costco. go to the big box in sunnyvale on lawrence station. remember, you can buy if you're using a gift card. you don't have to be a member. vallejo has the north bay's best, $4.19 at 7-eleven on fairgrounds live. in alameda county, the best is oakland, $4.29 at 76 on harrison street. good news or not so good news, it still comes to you through all your friends on gasbuddy.com. on the roadways, a smooth flow. there was a traffic break in oakland, it's clear now downtown to the coliseum. everything is restored, and the bay bridge has a smooth flow of traffic getting into the city. everything is moving smoothly after the crash cleared. >> thank you, mike. back to part two.

transportation secretary pete buttigieg spoke about boeing sunday morning on fox news. >> just think about it. it's an amazing fact, a form of transportation that involves being sent through the air at nearly the speed of sound in a metal tube is the safest way to travel in america. if they want to maintain that, as we must, that means an enormous amount of rigor in dealing with boeing and any regulatory issue, and that's exactly what faa is doing. >> we get important inflation numbers tomorrow. this, after another hotter than expected jobs report friday. more than a quarter million jobs created in a month. the princess of wales, catherine, is apologizing for posting what experts say is a digitally altered photograph. it has a red x across it because we need to mark it as fake. you may recall the princess has been recovering from some kind

some areas of patchy fog once the sun comes up. we'll get better clearing. we'll get a break from any sort of activity in general once we see the initial system pass through. we're talking less than a tenth of an inch, and then as we inch closer toward tonight and into tuesday, things will change with the arrival of this low pressure system. that's definitely going to switch things up heading into tuesday morning for your commute. as we inch closer to the temperatures heading into tonight, here is a closer look at radar. i want to show you the placement of the next system. you'll notice light activity right here, and then to our north this is the system moving in tonight into tomorrow's commute. and that's also going to bring some gusty winds as well through parts of the sierra, also through sacramento, pushing down through san jose, and then in through parts of the santa cruz mountains. temperature-wise, we're in the 40s and 50s to start. morgan hill 49 degrees. daytime highs will bump up into the upper 50s. low to mid-60s overall.

through. you can see it on radar right here. notice we do have a little bit of green paired with that yellow, also some light snow coming down in the sierra. now, that wintery mix is going to remain a factor through tonight into tomorrow, because we do get the arrival just offshore of what looks like cloud cover. it's actually our next low pressure system that's already beginning to form, and that's going to start moving through parts of the north bay, becoming more widespread southward heading into tomorrow. so if you live in areas north of the golden gate bridge, you're likely going to be the first to see the rain out of that second system. so preparations for you to have to deal with somewhat of a rainy morning for tomorrow for some portions. i'll take you through the extended outlook in a bit. you mentioned a little drizzle, smear on the lens. this is fremont in case you couldn't recognize that, southbound 880 with headlights, heading from fremont into milpitas. the green highlighting means there will be damp roadways throughout much of the east and

south bay, south of 84, which still has traffic control. i did want to point out highway 4, you've seen this crash on the map that's eastbound. it's counter-commute. westbound, we're just now starting to see volume. the crash is not really impacting the commute, but we're still monitoring that, as well as getting through berkeley toward the bay bridge. at university there's a crash on the shoulder. no problems across the span. >> thanks, mike. happening today, jewish students at uc berkeley plan to protest against what they call a lack of action by the school to protect students. this follows a chaotic incident on campus just two weeks ago. one professor now staging his own sit-in protest. "today in the bay"'s ginger conejero saab is live for us in berkeley this morning. so, ginger, talk to us about what's expected to happen today. >> reporter: well, marcus, good morning. later today jewish students are expected to march in a protest that they are calling liberate the gate. jewish students are acting because they say the university is not acting when it comes to

protecting the physical safety of its students, as well as their free speech. now, this follows a professor's own protest that's happening in the social sciences building right behind us. professor ron hasner is the chair of israeli studies at berkeley and said he will teach, eat and sleep in his office, which will be open at all hours of the day and tonight to students who do not feel safe or have been subjected to anti-semitic abuse, or who just wish to chat. he wrote to his students, quote, i am pessimistic that this will sway the administration certainly in the short term. i am willing to wait it out as long as i can, but the main reason i'm doing this is not to exert indirect pressure on campus leaders, rather to signal to you students that we, the faculty, care. professor hasner's sit-in comes after pro-palestinian students

disrupted an event on campus. it was supposed to feature an israeli speaker and that event was abruptly canceled due to security concerns. the university later strongly condemned the incident, saying in part, quote, we share our anger and concern and we understand that we must do all that we can to prevent anything like this from happening again. now, today's march will begin at noon with a rally at 12:15 to follow at california hall. now, the aim organizers say is to put pressure on the administration to suspend certain groups under investigation for the february event. so the march will start at 12:00 and the rally will start at 12:15. we'll be here to bring you updates throughout the morning and midday. >> hopefully their concerns are addressed. ginger conejero saab in berkeley for us, thank you. a pilot's quick-thinking

jose. a little drizly in some spots. vianey arana is in for kari and has a look at our forecast. >> it looks like we do have some slight activity, nothing to be too concerned about as far as rain totals go. everything is going to be very minimal in comparison to some of the previous storms we've seen. you can see some light activity. i'm going to zoom in closer so we can look at a closer location through parts of san jose. over the santa cruz mountains, and then cloud cover through the afternoon. as far as how much rain, this is going to be a very quick-moving system. if you notice, this is mostly for the north bay, less than a tenth of an inch. so a really weak system. heading into tomorrow, we do have a second system, and here it is. this fills out a bit more with the second system. that one is going to stretch from north to south, so folks living in the south bay will get more of an impact into the morning commute as well. especially around the coastline, and parts of san francisco, around the peninsula, we'll also see some of those winds begin to kick up heading into tonight and

tomorrow. here is a live look in san jose. it's about 55 degrees. once we get that system clearing out, we do get peeks of sunshine through the afternoon. we're going to max out in the 60s. we'll talk about the extended outlook and what's going on in the sierra. a crash has caused backup in the past three minutes, northbound 101 around mckee. you see the effect of it on the roadway, we typically see a burst of traffic around this time, anyway. our camera is about here and that's where the slowdown starts. it clears after you pass mckee. by oakland road, everything is fine. that's the typical spot we see slowing, anyway. much more focused. we'll find out if there are any lanes that remain blocked. there are some damp roadways throughout the south bay, east bay, coming through fremont and pleasanton. highway 84 still has one-way traffic control and 81 in the sanborn park area will have a closure, both continue from

storms we had weeks ago. we have a smooth flow of traffic on the build, pretty typical pattern, no backup at the toll plaza, but you can see the sheen on the pavement. there will be light rain throughout the bay, so you might have slick roadways. new help is here ahead of tax season. it comes, thanks to a new pilot program making its debut in california. we're going to tell you about the free help it can provide for tax filers. president biden wants a tax hike, likely not for you. we'll go over it. and clarifying a story. all of that ahead. plus, everyone's favorite football team now looking for the bay area's favorite teachers. the return of a 49ers award program honoring those who leave a lasting impact. a lasting impact.

innocent lives being lost as a consequence of the actions taken. he's hurting, in my view, he's hurting israel more than helping israel by making the rest of the world -- it's contrary to what israel stands for. >> now, there's enormous concern that the civilians in gaza, millions of them, are being concentrated in that smaller area, and tremendous hunger. images of a little boy we're not going to show, but you've probably seen it, barely more than a skeleton before doctors say he starved to death, have been seen around the world. the president will release his budget and the white house says it will include a plan to reduce the deficit because it allows some trump-er attacks breaks to sunset and adds other taxes for corporations and americans making more than $400,000 a year. if you don't make $400,000, your taxes would not go up. then again, it has little chance of passing the house as written. alabama congressman katie

new this morning, the 49ers are also kicking off a new search for some of the bay area's best teachers, and we know they're out there. >> they really are. the 49ers foundation asking for nominees for the dr. harry edwards follow your bliss award grant. it recognizes educators who make a difference in students' lives. ten recipients will receive $2,000 for school supplies, projects and/or programs, and organizers say the money can go a long way for those teachers in the classroom. >> sometimes a thankless job, you know, you definitely don't get into education because you want to be the next millionaire. you get into education because it's made an impact in your life and you want to make an impact in the lives of others. so this is our way, it might be small, but we take immense pride in education. >> our students were able to attain more books, books that would help them read and books

that will help their families support them in reading. >> and that was principal ramirez from foster city school district that received the award last year. to find a copy of the nomination form on the 49ers.com website, and the deadline to submit your application is march 29th. >> good opportunity. great teachers out there. there might be some celebrating going on in hollywood this morning. >> the 96th annual academy awards are officially over, but one film reigned supreme at this year's ceremony. here is a wrap-up of hollywood's biggest night. >> reporter: a three-hour summer blockbuster about the making of the atomic bomb dominated the academy awards, winning seven, including best picture. >> i have been dreaming about this moment for so long. >> reporter: producer emma thomas saw her husband,

christopher nolan, win best director for the first time. >> there are so many people who dragged me up here. >> reporter: including robert downey jr., who won best supporting actor. >> i would like to thank my terrible childhood. [ laughter ] and the academy. >> reporter: as well as cillian murphy, who earned best actor for his title role. >> we made a film about the atomic bomb, and for better or worse, we're living in oppenheimer's world. i would like to dedicate this to peace leaders everywhere. emma stone was flusters as she took home an oscar for best act press. >> this is overwhelming. >> reporter: and da'vine joy randolph was overwhelmed with emotion in winning best supporting actress. >> for so long i've always wanted to be different, and now i realize i just need to be myself. >> reporter: and what was i made

for gave billie eilish and her brother the oscar for best original song. it was "barbie's" only win of the night. it was a ceremony that started a little earlier than usual, 4:00 here in hollywood. on the time change day, so it was a feels-like time of 3:00 in the afternoon, which just left more time at the end for afterparties. in hollywood, nbc news. >> so the party began after that. >> yeah, no kidding, late into the morning. it was a good show. >> it really was. some of the speeches, just be yourself, i liked that. >> it was very good. >> even the intros. i really liked how they took the supporting actors and actresses and had previous winners introduce them with a personal message. talked about how she wore her grandmother's glasses so she could see the world through her grandmother's glasses. >> i've got a lot of movies i've got to catch up on. >> yeah, i have a lot, too.

i'm sure they appreciated the sunshine on the red carpet. >> welcome to hollywood. >> good weather for that. i know they've had to squeegee the red carpet a couple times because of rain. they're not worried about that today or tomorrow in l.a., but for us we have a quick-moving system we're going to be monitoring. i want to start with a shot of lake tahoe. it's about 32 degrees and there is a special weather message right now in effect because of the wintery mix they're getting. you can see it right here, south lake tahoe. so gusty winds, a mix of rain, snow, accumulations won't be as high as some of the blizzard storms that we've seen recently. but it will still be enough to where if you're going to be traveling through any of those stretches, you definitely want to be careful, slow it down and check road conditions. here is satellite radar, you can see a system to the north. we do have some activity moving through right now. you're likely going to continue to see a spotty chance heading into the next hour to two hours. once this clears out, we are

going to get some clearing, but still somewhat cloudy. temperature-wise, we're starting in the 40s and 50s in san jose. fremont, 51, napa in the 40s. in your hour-by-hour outlook, i want to take you through the 6:30 evening hours into tomorrow when the next system moves in. we're going to remain pretty cloudy. notice what moves in late tonight overnight into tuesday morning. so this is at around 2:00 a.m. notice areas in santa rosa, napa, san francisco, it starts to move into palo alto, livermore, and then right for your morning commute, we're talking 3:00, 4:00 a.m., by that time spreading through 7:00 a.m., we're going to see more of an impact through parts of the south bay as well. tomorrow morning's commute is likely going to have much more rain compared to today's, but also here it is, the special weather statement for the sierra. that is more snow expected to come down with the system. good news, behind that second system it clears out rather quickly, heading into wednesday we'll keep cloud cover. but then things really start to

warm up, thanks to high pressure, and we begin a final stretch of dry weather. that's talk about the temperatures. today we're going to be in the 60s, 62 in morgan hill, dublin 61. tomorrow you'll notice we begin to warm up, because as the system is exiting, another is making its approach. heading into wednesday you'll see the bump up. we're going to be in the upper 60s for san jose, 68 degrees. we'll inch toward the 70s just in time for the weekend. heading into thursday and friday, we really start to see the temps bump up in san francisco as well. so the city is going to be quite warm. look at the inland temperatures, starting on thursday we'll see some 70s on the map, heading into friday, saturday and sunday. thanks to that system, we'll see temperatures bump into the upper 70s. so this weekend is really going to be stunning. we're going to finally enjoy a good stretch of solid weather without the instability. keep in mind, through tonight and tomorrow, still got rain

chances going. and then as mike and i like to talk about, getting our cars washed, you can finally do that. wait until wednesday. how are the roads? >> hey, we're looking over here, things were moving slowly and steadily. then it almost completely stopped for a couple of minutes. this is north 101, just north of 280 and 680. this crash reportedly in the middle of the roadway at mckee. there's been no update as far as the info from chp. that slowing almost stopping, does indicate, i believe, that they've got a crew over there and they may be stopping traffic to clear things to the shoulder. i'll give you an update. the sensors do tell us there's a bigger backup starting before story road, so north of tully it will be slow. you can use 87, it's clearer right now and traffic is relatively light. it might be better to join up around the airport on 101. everything else is moving smoothly into and through the

south bay. the backup at the bay bridge toll plaza does start to form as the metering lights have been on. it almost completely cleared for a couple of minutes. we do have a new crash on highway 24, and we need to learn whether it's eastbound or westbound. there's no slowing through the area of lafayette. we're looking at a build for highway 4, 37, and in richmond that does indicate more for the eastshore freeway, more heading toward the bay bridge. the tri-valley moves slowly with slowing out of the altamont. >> thanks, mike. happening now, what if i told you if there was $532 million up for grabs in a powerball ticket tonight? that is the amount of the latest jackpot, which someone last won right at the start of the new year. that means no one has won for 30 straight drawings. if you're thinking about taking that one-time cash payout, winning tonight will add up to about $260 million before taxes.
