the east bay overnight. we're live at the scene with new details on where that investigation stands this morning. it's really scary to have this happen, especially in a public school. one student hospitalized, another arrested following a stabbing at a south bay high school. the steps

administrators are taking today to ease the impact on campus, plus a deadly stage collapse in mexico during a campaign rally. what investigators say caused this tragedy. this is today in the bay good morning to you. on this thursday. thanks for allowing us to be a part of your morning. i'm marcus washington and i'm laura garcia. we'll check that morning commute if you're headed to work or out of town. but first, what if you're staying right here? got to know the forecast with carrie. it's going to be cooler. so you'll see the people out and about around the beach in the city. you'll know if they watch the forecast because it's not going to be as warm as you would think for the memorial day weekend. it is all clear as we're getting started, and let's head over to livermore with a look at our temperature trend throughout the day. it's going to be in the upper 50s at 8:00 at noon. it's at a perfect 71 degrees, and we'll see high temperatures in the mid 70s with some breezy winds into the afternoon. here's a look at our highs all around the bay area. santa rosa we'll

see a high of 80 today 73 in oakland and upper 70s for much of the south bay. mike, you have a crash. you've been watching crash developing some slowing already. carrie, this is southbound 880 a street. now, we had a build already coming off of 238, but more focused around a street as i just got a report of the crash. not a lot of detail from chp. i'll get that over the next few minutes, but that will be a factor coming out of castro valley and then heading down to the san mateo bridge, where we see the sensors slow a bit, just a bit for the volume. there's also some slowing around the dumbarton bridge toll plaza, and i will check on that because we don't often see that lighter traffic flow. overall, a little bit lighter. we still have the slowing in san jose and of course in the east bay, especially the bay bridge toll plaza. back to you. all right. thank you very much. we do begin this morning with some breaking news in the east bay. sadly, one person is killed after a mobile home catches fire. we have a live look near the scene in pleasanton. the fire started around midnight along vineyard avenue, not too far from the

shadow cliffs. recreation area. firefighters say the initial call indicated one person was trapped inside. in addition to the person killed. another victim was taken to the hospital with minor injuries. the cause of that fire is still under investigation today in the bay's bob redell is at the scene. you want to stick around and wait for his full report coming up in our next half hour. new overnight. all lanes back open again. this is on westbound 580 in oakland. that's where a car struck a pedestrian a little before 130 this morning near harbor way. pedestrian died there at the scene. that driver remained at the scene. and chp says there were no signs of impairment. now in the south bay, the regular end of the school stress is now compounded with a trauma that happened there on the violence. this was on the campus of one high school there now. one student was stabbed by another and the other student arrested over at christopher high school in gilroy today in the bay's kris

sanchez joining us from the campus this morning. and chris, you know, after something like this, it's really trying for those students heading back to school. do we know what they're going to be met with this morning? you know, i want to start by saying that the student who was stabbed is going to recover, is still in the hospital, and there will be counselors here on campus for any student or staff member who needs a little bit of support this morning. but some parents say that more than that, at this point, they should have metal detectors here at this school. that's the opinion of some parents. now, this happened yesterday afternoon as gilroy police tell us and christopher high police tell us two boys were in a fight in a school locker room when one of them pulled a knife and stabbed the other, a school resource officer was on campus and was there almost immediately. there was a blue code blue lockdown where everybody shelters in place and it lasted about an hour. while gilroy police investigated. it was all clearly traumatizing for students. and you just hear a

big commotion, and i just see a kid laying on the floor and bleeding out, and then everyone's just circling around, and then they they haul them off . now there are still two weeks left in the school year. so are a lot of extracurriculars are still happening. finals are still ahead. graduation isn't until june 6th, so the students have a lot of time to have to process what's happening ahead of them and then what happened yesterday. so if you have kids here at the school, just ask them how they're doing, see if they're okay in gilroy, kris sanchez. today in the bay. make sure you keep that dialog open there so the kids can talk. if they are having any issues. all right, chris, thanks for that update. developing right now. intense video out of mexico. this is the moment a stage collapse during a political campaign rally following strong winds. at least nine people are confirmed dead today in the

bay's brie jackson is live in washington. but following it all for us, one of those victims. i understand brie is a child. that's correct. laura. so in addition, about 63 people were also injured in the deadly collapse. this all happened last night in mexico at saint san pedro garza garcia near the city of monterrey. and the northern state of nuevo leon. the political rally was to promote lorena canavati. she's a mayoral candidate for san pedro and long shot presidential candidate jorge alvarez martinez. a video uploaded to social media shows both candidates running from the stage. when the stage started collapsing. a separate clip shows people screaming, running away and climbing out from under metal poles. canavati promoted the event on on x before it got underway, the post ironically showing the full extent of the stage at the venue. now, following the collapse, members of mexico's national guard arrived on the scene to provide

support and three of those injured required surgery. following a visit to a local hospital. martinez was among those taken to the hospital, but was said to be in good condition . now, as we mentioned, martinez is seen as a long shot in mexico's presidential race. currently in third. you see berkeley doctoral candidate claudia sheinbaum is currently seen as the frontrunner among likely voters if she or the challenger so chill galvez is selected, they would become the country's first female president. mexico's presidential race is scheduled to take place in just a little over a week. laura all right. thanks for all the details there. brie jackson live from washington. new at six. the owner of two now closed fishermans wharf restaurants is filing a new lawsuit against the city of san francisco. fisherman's grotto and tarantino's each closed in 2020. this is shortly after the start of the pandemic. while the port of san francisco evicted each business, alleging that the

owner was more than $1.5 million behind on rent. the ownership group is now trying to recoup what it claims is $2 million spent on repair costs, along with lost revenue and rent reimbursement, citing that failure by the city to honor the lease agreement. now, the city's attorney's office tells the chronicle, ownership was attempted a series of maneuvers just as to get out of paying the money it still owes in back rent. and it looks forward to responding in court. 607 right now, this morning, the memorial day weekend travel rush is kicking off. today is expected to be the busiest day. triple a is forecasting nearly 44 million people will head out of town for memorial day weekend. most travelers packing up the car to head out, totaling around 38.4 million people. another 3.5 million plan to fly to their destination. both forecasts are up compared to last year. and you're headed to tahoe. here's a live look at palisades tahoe,

which is actually providing a last chance this weekend for diehard skiers and snowboarders. it is the only resort still operating in the tahoe basin. memorial day will be the final day. if you can't make it to tahoe. mammoth mountain also open through memorial day in southern california. i want to first look to that picture. i thought of transformers. it looked like one of the transformers on the hill. oh, right. yeah. but anyway. all right, so look, folks, heading there to tahoe want to get some skiing in. they're going to be met with some nice temperatures. yes. it's going to be a beautiful weekend. i wanted to show you another live view. you've got some boats out on the water. you've got a little bit of snow there in the mountains. so you can just pretty much do it all there this weekend. and this i was saying, just looks like a painting that doesn't even look real. this is a live view of palisades. so we're starting out with temperatures in the 30s there, and we're headed for the upper 50s for the afternoon. now, each night we drop down to the 30s, but it will be sunny all throughout the

next several days. if you're keeping it here at home and skiing is not your sport, how about baseball? we'll have the a's playing at home for today, and it's an early game, so our temperatures will be in the upper 60s and low 70s. and then tomorrow night we've got the bay fc game in san jose. we're going to see temperatures in the low 60s. it's going to be chilly out there with some breezy winds, and we're coming down to the upper 50s. so we'll talk about some more events going on. mike filling up at the gas station, are those prices rising or falling? you know, you'd think it would be rising because it's probably high demand, right? but they're kind of holding steady or even a little bit lower over the last couple of days. we're getting away on the sly. perhaps today go to fox. gasoline is your getaway. fill up in livermore for 24 off old first street. if you're leaving the south bay, you fill up your lowest in san jose's for 69 at arco on north capitol express or capital avenue. i'm sorry. difference. and heading out through solano county. vallejo's lowest for 79. that's central gas on springs road. of course. this information is exchanged on gasbuddy.com term on the

roadway. a pretty smooth drive right now. lighter flow, a bit lighter for this time of morning. and, you know, it's typical as we will see more traffic midday getting away. we do see more slowing though. southbound 880 approaching a street. this crash does look like it's moving out of lanes. speeds are actually improving a bit, but there is a build for north 238 coming off the castro valley, we're looking at pretty typical areas with the slower pattern as well. the bay bridge toll plaza did see the backup start at the normal time, but it's been a more gradual build up. still, it's 610, almost 611, and we have lanes basically filled to the end of the parking lot. oh all right. thanks, mike. i'm glad you're not sitting in it. right. okay i'm glad i'm sitting here. well, the aquarium by the sea is suddenly without a ceo. coming up next on today in the bay amid financial trouble at the popular attraction, the lavish spending he's being accused of. fishy. well, can you tell the difference between a deep fake and a human? banks really need to know. we'll show you how they're figuring it out. let's take you out to the

futures this morning after nvidia's blockbuster. look at the nasdaq and what we're going to see on the. hey, and if you missed the northern lights here in the bay area you remember that. well, i want you to get ready because there's another phenomenon in the sky heading our way. we're going to have some details on the planet parade heading towards the bay area you don't want t

what to expect. it's going to be right at about 60 degrees at 9:00. but look at how fast these temperatures warm up. we're going from 60 to a couple of hours later at 70 and then into the upper 70s for today. and that's where our temperatures stop. it's still going to be a nice day with some breezy winds and a lot of sunshine. we'll check out our weekend forecast coming up in a few minutes. i'm looking over here thinking there's not as much sun as i thought, but i think it might be just the light setting on our camera. it's still moving smoothly. you see some headlights though, so maybe a darker in a few patches here. 880 through fremont moves smoothly, picking up the volume a bit. we'll show you how things are shaping up actually south in the in the silicon valley, where we should see some more slowing kicking in. well good morning. very happy thursday to you. you know you can look at any number on the board you want to but this is live nation. they probably face some trouble. but all that matters is nvidia. yesterday i said this was the

most important stock in america. now i feel like i undersold it. nvidia in santa clara reported profits after the closing bell yesterday, which is why you're going to see this down arrow and they were indescribably good profits up 600. the company also announced a ten for one stock split in just the last 24 hours. nvidia has added $173 billion to its valuation. that's more than the entire market capitalization of intel in the past 24 hours. just so we're clear here, i'm not saying nvidia is worth more than intel or twice as much as intel. it's worth way more than that. i'm saying the value of this company moved more than the entire value of intel since our last newscast, the justice department says it will hold a press conference at 8:00. our time, we strongly suggest it's going to say it's suing live nation, the parent company of ticketmaster. they'll be joined by seven states. attorneys general. wouldn't be surprised if california is there. they'll accuse ticketmaster of being a monopoly, which is a familiar

complaint. many members of congress said the same during a recent congressional hearing. well, this is steve cramer. he was just indicted for making a deepfake of president biden that was played as a robocall in new hampshire, encouraging people not to vote in the primary and save their vote. instead, nbc news was one of the first to identify cramer behind the effort to help a different democratic candidate in the race, an outsider named dean phillips. the first company to identify how he did it was a firm called pindrop security. pindrop is used to figure out what voices are real, what's fake? pindrop is identification software also used in call centers, because companies like banks are reporting they're getting calls from deep fake voices trying to get into accounts. but how do you tell who's human the good guys are studying how people form words, and how hackers try to copy them with computers. the computers have a tell, for instance, the way a computer might say, hello

paul. so when i say hello, my mouth is wide open when i said hello and my mouth shuts down when i say, paul, there's only a certain speed with which i can do that, because i'm human. these machines don't care about those speeds. and so what they do is they're saying things in very, very rapid fashion, which, though it sounds, good to the human ear, there is no corresponding physical anatomy that could have gone through those configurations in time that quickly. and we're able to pick that out. computers apparently also have trouble with fricatives, which are s's, f's. so the words san francisco, for instance, is almost a shibboleth of trying to figure out who's what. they're getting better, but for now, a good guy computer can pick out when a bad guy computer struggles with language. you really got to watch it. yeah. all right, we will be watching it. thanks, scott. you bet. 618 for you right now. and new at six. a top executive for fisherman's wharf tourist attraction is reportedly

stepping down amidst concerns about excessive spending. the chronicle is reporting that the nonprofit that runs the aquarium of the bay is now actually treading water financially. so ceo george jacobs spent last fish on flights and activities is all tied to climate change events in dubai last year. in response, jacobs says that he's resigning to pursue resigning to pursue a new project. he did not respond to the spending allegations well trending this morning. for some lucky dogs, it's more than just frisbees taking flight today, barker's first plane takes flight this afternoon. now the goal here is to allow dogs to fly in aircraft's main cabin instead of cargo crates. the initial new york to l.a. flight is sold out and get this tickets start at $6,000. this is for both the passenger and the passengers. best friend, all furry passengers have access to

calming treats, noise canceling earmuffs and calming jackets. routes include stops in new york, l.a, london and paris. taking to the skies. well also trending this year we saw that rare solar eclipse. then the northern lights will now next month you can actually look forward to an alignment known as planetary parade. yeah. so that parade will start june 3rd. this is when mercury, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune will be aligned. now you'll possibly see multiple planets across the sky, but you may not see the large alignment. nasa says only a few of those planets will be visible to the naked eye. mercury mars, jupiter and saturn may be spotted with a naked eye, but you'll actually need a telescope or even high powered vehicles to actually see neptune and uranus. the best vantage point will be in new york, so not visible to us, and only with a telescope. so it's not going

to be much for us in the bay area but you may see some pictures on social media for people who have those really expensive telescopes. exactly. it's always really amazing. i think, too, when you're able to get something out and then see, like the rings of saturn. yeah, i love social media that like nasa and other agencies are so active that we can see really? yeah. all right. well, hopefully the sky is clear for that. we're all clear this morning and we're leading into our holiday weekend. it's going to be bright and sunny throughout the day and it's beautiful. taking a look at that view in san francisco, it will be a cool a cooler day and also breezy winds, but temperatures really start to drop tomorrow heading into the weekend and it's going to be gusty. and our memorial day weekend will see the return of the may gray. that's that coastal fog in the marine layer and a chance of drizzle. now. we're also starting out clear in the south bay. we're going to continue with sunshine throughout the day. temperatures going from mid 50s to mid 70s for today. really nice out

there. but once again let's talk about that wind. we are seeing the winds that are going to be picking up for the coastline, san francisco, parts of the north bay where we may see some of those gusts coast close to 40mph, possibly 45 by this evening. so it will be windy today in san francisco with that high up to 66 degrees. san mateo will see a high there of 68 and 73, in hayward as well as fremont, san jose in the upper 70s and the warmest spot will be fairfield, with a high of 82 degrees. as we take it into the day tomorrow, we are dropping it down another 5 to 7 degrees, maybe even cooler in some spots, with san francisco looking at a high of 62 degrees and upper 60s for the south bay. saturday also very cool for this time of year as we stay in the 60s. and speaking of cool, if you're going to the beach this weekend, as a lot of people do for the holiday weekend, monterey will only see highs in the mid 50s all throughout the weekend, and

we may not see much sunshine either. it's going to be foggy there as our temperatures pick up and transport that cool air to the inland areas. our highs will only be in the upper 60s on saturday mid 70s for sunday, and then looking a lot more seasonable for memorial day through the middle of next week. we'll be watching that for you and mike. you're updating that crash along the nimitz. yeah we don't have any major injuries. that's the first big good news. and we also have the crash over on the shoulder. that's why we see a smooth throughput right here from out of san lorenzo, san leandro and down in toward hayward and highway 92. so traffic smoothing out, but still building as far as the volume goes. the crash again on the shoulder, if at all, around a street other side of the bay. we do have an incident over on highway one. not really restricting traffic flow, but just keep that in mind as you're traveling along the coast and a smooth drive up and down the peninsula into the south bay, the east bay has your typical patterns but lighter traffic flow. it seems back to you. thank you mike. well, a planned attack foiled in france. up next

here, new details on the overnight arrest of someone allegedly threatening olympic related events and the calls for truce before the game

attack on the olympic torch relay. the olympic flame arrived in marseille earlier this month.

it is now in bordeaux. investigators say that during the search of the suspect's home , they found a rubber pellet revolver along with mobile phones and a computer, and claimed that he has a fascination with loner type mass killers. he also is described as psychologically highly fragile. now, new calls this morning. this is from french president emmanuel macron to offer a truce. this is in russia's war against ukraine. the reason? the upcoming summer olympic games in paris this morning he speaks exclusively with cnbc, calling the idea something of a tradition ahead of the olympics. a truce is not, for me, the end game. sustainable peace is the end game, but i think it's very important that first, this is a tradition and it's very important to use this window during one month tradition to have a truce during, during the olympic games. and, and i think this is a very good opportunity now in paris, ukraine, president volodymyr zelensky is already

rejecting the idea, claiming that russia would use it for its own military advantage. vladimir putin, meanwhile, also shot down the idea, citing the ioc banning russia athlete athletes from participating under the russian flag. there's a lot more ahead at 630, including breaking news. we're following in the east bay. sadly, one person is killed after a house fire overnight. we'll take you out to the scene for an update from investigators . plus, a live report from sfo on what is forecasted to be the busiest travel day heading into memorial day weekend. we have more up ahead. stay with

get you caught up with that forecast today. meteorologist kari hall tracking what we can expect across the bay area. mild temperatures this morning. yeah, it starts out mild. it's going to be a comfortable day. and we're keeping the sunshine. so we are headed into a very pleasant holiday weekend. right now it's 53 in san jose and it's 49 in fremont, 50 in sonoma. and then as we check out morgan hill and what to expect today, we're going from upper 50s at 9:00 to a 1:00 temperature of 72 degrees. and we'll make it into the mid to upper 70s for today. but the winds pick up later on this afternoon, and we're expecting cooler temperatures going into the day tomorrow. so here's a look at all of our microclimates and our high temperatures. it's going to be pleasant. we'll talk about a lot of the events going on around the bay area as you're making weekend plans. that's coming up in a few minutes. all right, carrie, thank you. well, breaking news overnight. one person is dead, another hurt. this is after a mobile home caught fire in the east bay today in the bay's bob redell.

joining us live from the scene in pleasanton. and, bob, i mean, just looking at that house behind, behind you. do we know what happened here? we don't know the cause yet, but we have an idea of what transpired after this fire started. i spoke with the battalion chief at the livermore pleasanton fire department, who tells us that when they arrived on the scene, they did try to save the life of the elderly man who lived inside this mobile home. but unfortunately, the fire flashed over when they went inside. and the captain, who was trying to reach the man, had to get out of the structure for his own safety. fire started just before midnight. this is a home here. it's a double wide single story in the hacienda mobile home park on vineyard avenue in pleasanton. when firefighters arrived, the home was already fully involved. the wife, she got out on her own. she was obviously very upset about the fact that her husband was still inside. the bbc tells us that she actually wanted to go back, try to go back inside and try to save him, but they obviously held her back, which again, the fire department tried to do.

they did go in but could not get to the man in time we made an aggressive attack. we could see that there was a the smoke was hot. it was filling up the building, but we risk a lot to save a lot, and the first thing, captain, as soon as he came in, felt a lot of heat through his turnouts and his protective equipment. but he decided to continue to make that push in as far as he could until the conditions deteriorated on him. and then removed his crew to safety. and, we took the actions that we had to take for, for our for our own safety and the crew safety. again, that person, an elderly man, according to the fire department, sadly did not make it. his wife was taken to the hospital for minor injuries. the livermore, livermore, pleasanton fire department, as you can see behind me, they're still on scene. they're waiting for the sunlight, which we're starting to get. they need the sun one so they can have the corner come out to remove the man and chu so they can get their own investigator on the scene to try to figure out what

caused this deadly fire. reporting live here in pleasanton, bob redell today in the bay. so tragic. all right. bob redell forest bob. thank you. now we will continue to bring you updates on this story, both on air as well as online. if you haven't already, make sure you download our free nbc bay area news app. that way, you can have customized breaking news and weather alerts sent straight to your phone. police are asking for your help in catching a woman who stabbed someone at an east bay chick fil a. it happened tuesday in emeryville on 40th street. police say this woman walked to a customer, stabbing them in the neck before running out the door. the victim is expected to survive. investigators are calling it a random attack. if you know who she is, contact police. well, new this morning. antioch police looking for an armed robber who targeted a pair of contra costa county fair workers. it happened early sunday on summersville road near the fairgrounds located at the event center. the victims were doing the night drop at a bank when the gunman approached. anyone with information should contact antioch police. what is

believed that investigators are now reviewing video footage to hopefully learn more about what sparked a fire at a peninsula scrap metal yard happened yesterday afternoon at sims metal in redwood city. maybe you smelled it if you were in that area. now that smoke traveled all the way down to the south bay. for a time, people were told to close their windows and stay indoors. well, we are heading into a three day holiday weekend. summer travel season taking off. according to triple a memorial day travel is expected to be the busiest in nearly 20 years. wow. okay, so look, this morning we do have team coverage for you as you plan your trip. meteorologist kari hall tracking your forecast on mike inouye is monitoring any of those impacts you may face on the roadway. but first let's head over to today in the bay ginger conejero saab. she's over at sfo this morning. and ginger today is expected to be a really busy one out there. that is correct. good morning marcus laura and the whole gang there back in the studio today is

forecasted to be the busiest day of travel heading into this memorial day weekend. since the last time that we saw you guys, it's gotten a tad bit busier here at the security checkpoint. these lines definitely were not around in the last hour, but those wait times still looking manageable. we're seeing five minutes and seven minutes whether or not you have clear or tsa precheck and their normal security lines, but tsa triple a rather is forecasting today to be pretty busy. they say this year's numbers are inching closer to a 2005 record of 44 million travelers, and the forecast for this year is just shy of that, with 43.8 million travelers, over 38 million people are traveling by car. that is the most road trips triple a says it's ever seen, and 3.5 million people are traveling by air, both of those numbers are up 4% since last year, according to a triple a spokesperson. there is a surprise new category of travel

that's quite popular. these days. cruises have been gangbusters as she put it, since the pandemic. that was the industry to last come back online and it has just exploded since then. here is triple a's triple a's spokesperson giving her thoughts on why travel is still growing. two things there one. prices are not much higher than last year, so we're not paying much more for flights, hotels and car rentals. in fact, it really obviously depends where you're going for flights. but if you're willing to fly basic economy and maybe have a layover, you might be able to score a pretty cheap flight, especially if you book a for a flight. that leaves tuesday or wednesday. those are the cheaper days. and that busy travel may also involve some delays, especially if you are planning on traveling to tahoe this weekend. caltrans warning bay area travelers to be wary of delays on interstate 80 because of emergency construction starting in colfax and extending

to the nevada state line. now, caltrans plans to pause construction starting friday afternoon, tomorrow afternoon and running through monday. but if you are planning on getting a head start today, some of those projects may add 30 to 40 minutes to your drive time, so be aware of that. now back out here at sfo you see and you typically see this sometimes right. the lines fluctuate but they are still manageable. these wait times. now we did speak to a young man here at the airport. it's a good reminder. his experience. he got here 50 minutes before his flight when he says i should have gotten here an hour. his flight ended up getting. he ended up not making it to his flight and now, instead of leaving for a trip to cancun, he is now delayed until 11 p.m. tonight. so just a nice reminder. try to get here as early as you can, especially on a busy day like today guys. oh what a way to kick off the holiday weekend. i know that is a good lesson. yeah, to allow some extra time. two hours. all

right, all right. thanks so much ginger. all right. so let's talk about that i mean, the conditions out there for a lot of people flying weather wise should be okay. yeah. but you know there's always that ripple effect where if there are storms somewhere else that delays the flights going somewhere else, that's what we're seeing in the northeast right now. there's quite a few storms that are moving through new york and also for the east coast. and we're also seeing some moving across the south. so right now, look at that. new york is seeing 90 minute delays as well as newark. and then we're seeing 30 minute delays for boston. and so that may affect some of the other flights moving across the country and coming into some of the other airports. you want to keep it right here because we have a lot going on in the bay area with bottlerock and napa valley this weekend. we are going to see some beautiful weather. temperatures in the low 70s for a high tomorrow. cooling down to the upper 40s. so be prepared for all of the changes in the temperature that we'll see throughout the weekend. and we'll also have foodie land

happening at the cow palace tomorrow evening. it's going to be windy and cool out there. temperatures only in the mid to upper 50s. and then if you're looking for something to do with the family, the rail fair at the ardenwood farm in fremont, that's going to be going on saturday and sunday. we're looking at highs in the mid 60s there. so sunglasses, a light jacket, you'll be comfortable throughout the day. and we also have carnaval happening in san francisco. take a look at these temperatures. staying in the 50s in the city throughout the weekend at least we will at times get some sunshine. but do expect the clouds and the fog the closer you are to the coastline. so we'll be watching all of that for you. mike. is the commute any lighter today? you know it's a little bit lighter, carry a bit of the patterns are pretty typical. so we do see the slowing where we expect. i would say if you're driving to work this morning for your early commute, as we are talking about, just plan on your typical drive. also atypical, just like yesterday and tomorrow, right around zjsu, we're going to see graduation ceremonies throughout the day,

so that will mean folks coming in and then leaving. there's a crossover. this is sdsu, the campus off of 280 and 87. so watch for seventh, 10th. all those exits getting over in toward the san jose state area. and from there as well, we're looking over toward a midday game. so i just call it out because some folks may be trying to leave the area midday to get away for the holiday starting today. perhaps that will be more congestion around oakland and then a smooth drive around the rest of the bay with later in the day more traffic back to you. thanks, mike. 641 right now, after record breaking snow, it all has to melt away up next, the chilly changes you can expect in lake tahoe this holiday weekend. the ukrainian president wants to change the rules on how american weapons are used. what are you waiting for? he asks

allow ukraine to use american weapons to hit russian forces in russia. and right now, scott mcgrew, they're limiting to hitting targets just inside of ukraine. those are the rules we have set. so if they're going to shoot down a russian airplane with a patriot battery, that plane's got to be inside russian or ukrainian airspace. if they're going to use a himars rocket that we make to take out a russian tank, that tank has got to be inside ukraine. president biden sees this as a way of preventing the war from expanding or provoking a nuclear reaction from the kremlin, but ukraine is by many measures,

losing the war. president zelenskyy, in an interview with the new york times earlier this week, said what are you waiting for? pointing out every decision washington makes to increase aid seems to come a year too late, and indeed, president biden has been cautious, resisting sending long range missiles until he did, resisting sending tanks until he did, resisting selling, the sale of f-16s until he said it was okay. other news the new york times has found a second instance of a flag associated with the january 6th insurrection flying outside a home owned by supreme court justice samuel alito. this time, the flag is known as the appeal to heaven. the alito family also flew the american flag upside down there outside their primary home. now, justice alito said his wife put that one up. the upside down flag is a sign of distress. the appeal to heaven flag dates back to the revolutionary war, but both have been adopted by election deniers

. this is another headache for chief justice john roberts, who's watched the american trust of the supreme court plunged to historic lows. former republican candidate for president nikki haley, who once said donald trump was unhinged and unqualified, says she's going to vote for donald trump. trump has not been perfect on these policies. i have made that clear. many, many times. but biden has been a catastrophe, so i will be voting for trump. having said that, i stand by what i said in my suspension speech. trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continued to support me and not assume that they're just going to be with him. and i genuinely hope he does that. we went back, watched the suspension speech. the only thing she said about

trump then was that she was going to make her own decision as her own person, and her decision is to support donald trump. the most recent post we can find on trump's truth social, where he posted about haley, is when he called her and ineffectual birdbrain. the two also traded barbs during the campaign. when trump questioned where haley's husband was when he was deployed in africa with the south carolina national guard. now, she's not the latest to take the insults but still support trump. trump made fun of his opponent, ted cruz, back in 2016, making fun of the senator's wife's looks, implying his father had a part in killing kennedy. but cruz came back into the fold. the chancellor of ucla will go before congress to today answer questions about how he handled pro cease-fire, protests on his campus, joined by leaders of northwestern and rutgers. you're seeing video here from a past hearing with the former head of harvard. she lost her job shortly thereafter as did the president of penn. the leaders of the three schools today struck deals with their

students to end the protest peacefully. carrie. thanks, scott. now let's turn to our climate in crisis. we know that the sierra snowpack is vital for our water storage for the summer, and curbing the drought, and it remains a healthy levels even now. during the month of may, the northern sierra is 90% of normal for this date, and we're still doing well across the central and southern regions, too. do you remember that late season storm we had on cinco de mayo? the central sierra snow lab saw over 26in of snow that day, making it one of the snowiest days of their season. and as we look toward memorial day, people will be making plans, including having hang outs by the lake and also wanting to share some of those safety tips. as we get deeper into that snow melt season, the water can be cold and running fast, and even some of the most experienced swimmers can lose control quickly. and we want you to be safe. so you want to check the water temperatures and the

conditions before your trip. water temperatures of 50 degrees might not sound terrible, but it can be deadly for some people. always wear a life jacket if you're going into the water and keep an eye on kids and pets, and if you or anyone in your group falls into the water, you just want to remember to remain calm as possible to conserve your energy and your body heat. we have some more of the water safety as well as climate stories on our website. possible solutions. it's on nbc bay area .com and look for our climate in crisis page. some good advice there. all right. well let's get a look at what we can expect right now. yeah it's going to be a nice weekend i know people are making plans. we want to of course keep you safe. but let's talk about the kind of weather you'll see out there. it's all clear right now in san francisco , but we're also going to have slightly cooler temperatures and a breezy afternoon tomorrow is going to be even cooler than today as temperatures drop. it's going to turn windy, and our

memorial day weekend is looking like may gray and drizzle, and probably not the best beach weekend before we get there. we still have commencement ceremonies going on at sdsu. we'll see temperatures in the morning right at about 64 degrees and going throughout the day. it continues to be sunny with highs in the mid 70s. we're going to see a high of 77 in san jose and los gatos, mountain view, 73 and 80 in concord, livermore today is looking at a high of 75 degrees and we'll see a high of 80 today in santa rosa, while san francisco stays in the mid 60s. if you've been looking at that 7-day forecast at the bottom of the screen, you see that it gets even cooler as we get closer to saturday. that's our coolest day. so tomorrow we're looking at a high of 71 in concord, 66 in oakland, and half moon bay will only be 59 degrees. really chilly there. and we also have the early afternoon game for the a's. there's so much going on this weekend and we're going to see some beautiful weather out there

during the middle of the afternoon as our highs head for the low 70s. and then tomorrow night we've got the bay fc game that's going to start out with some cooler temperatures than what we'll see today. low 60s dropping back to the upper 50s. and it's still going to be windy. and if you are planning to head to the beach you want to bring a jacket, the blanket, all of the stuff to keep you warm because it's not only going to be cool, but it's also going to be very windy. we're talking gusts to 40mph with monterey's high temperatures only in the mid 50s. santa cruz not much better with a high of 64 on saturday afternoon. around the bay area, we're looking at some milder temperatures for today and tomorrow, but then once we get to saturday this is going to be quite a bit below our typical high temperature of 67 degrees. we're used to seeing some mid to upper 70s this time of year, but we'll be there as those temperatures rebound into memorial day and upper 50s in san francisco for saturday and sunday. mike, you're seeing some traffic building in san jose.

yeah, but it's not because of the traffic volume. although there is an increase a bit. we're looking over here north to 80 really suddenly slowing. i hear about a roadside fire and there may be a crew on scene. so i'm going to say the slow lane is blocked as you travel up toward and past highway 17 for northbound to 8101 does show a pretty typical pattern in 87, a little slowing and 85 a little slowing. again a lighter volume, just a bit lighter. i think a lot of folks are getting ready to perhaps get on some vacation weekends here. 80 bills, and so does the drive across san mateo bridge, right on pattern 680. also a bit more slowing through sunol no surprises, although suddenly more slowing through walnut creek and lafayette, back to you. all right. thank you very much, mike. well, happening now, the power back on this morning at uc berkeley, a large part of campus was sentenced to darkness about 630 last night. university says about 47 buildings were impacted by that outage. backup lights kicked on when the power went off. uc berkeley posted a message on its

website a little after midnight that power was finally restored. no word on the cause of that outage. and up next, we're catching up with a look at what's making headlines here in the bay area, starting with that breaking news in the east bay. a deadly fire destroying a home overnight. new details on where that investigation stands this morning, plus memorial day weekend travel is expected to hit levels not seen in decades, and today should be the busiest day of all. what you need to

we're following in the east bay. sadly, an elderly man was killed after a mobile home caught fire. we have a live look near the scene in pleasanton. the fire

started around midnight along vineyard avenue, not too far from the shadow cliffs. recreation area. firefighters say the initial call indicated one person was trapped inside. in addition to the man killed, supposedly his wife, the victim taken to the hospital. she had minor injuries. the cause of that fire still under investigation and new overnight. all lanes are open again on westbound 580 in richmond. that's where a car struck a pedestrian a little before 130. this morning near harbor way. the pedestrian died there at the scene. the driver remained there. and chp says there were no signs of impairment. now to a live look at christopher high school in gilroy, where students will be met by counselors this morning after a classmate was stabbed during a fight in a locker room on campus. school resource officer was on campus and responded immediately. the campus went into code blue lockdown. the student who was stabbed is said to be recovering, and the student suspected in the stabbing was

arrested. there are two weeks left in the school year for christopher high school students . this morning, the memorial day weekend travel rush kicks off and here is a live look this morning at sfo. see a lot of folks out there this morning. well, today is expected to be the busiest travel day. nationwide triple-a forecasting. nearly 44 million people will head out of town for memorial day weekend. most travelers will pack up the car and head out, totaling about 38.4 million people. another 3.5 million people will fly to their destination. both forecasts are up compared to last year, and it's close to the record set in 2005. meanwhile, palisades tahoe providing a last chance for some weekend fun. this is for the die hard skiers and snowboarders out there, and it is the only resort still operating in the tahoe basin. so memorial day is going to be the final day to get in some of that slope fun, as opposed to 4th of july last year. yeah, you know it is a little bit less but still

definitely great to see it extending into almost june. well we are going to see temperatures that are going to cool off for the weekend. a quick look at the san mateo bridge. we have this disabled vehicle, but it's made its way to the service lane. so a distraction. but the traffic is building relatively mildly. well, you know, the today show is just ahead in moments, but we continue today in the bay on roku and other platforms. live at 8:00. the all new legal action the feds are taking against live nation, and the impact it could eventually have on ticket prices. yeah, that's tough getting those tickets there sometimes, but we'll see. you're always front row. what are you talking about? dancing to janet jackson. you could see over everybody anyway. yeah, i've gotten those complaints to hi, there. happy thursday! millions waking up to even more dangerous storms. >> that severe weather is now threatening to impact your holiday weekend. it's may the 23rd. this is today. ♪
