5:02 am
black mountain cam a little shaky from the winds especially in the higher elevated areas. but it is clear throughout the santa clara valley. we're waking up to that setup sunrise just around 5:45 this morning. we're going to see daytime highs throughout this whole week really peak today. and we're going to see a similar trend tomorrow before we cool off heading into this weekend's forecast. here's what's going on. high pressure has been building in from offshore. and that really warms us up and boy does it dry us up too. for the next six to ten days we'll continue to see the summer-like weather pattern all throughout the state of california. with above normal temperatures expected for us here in the bay area. on top of here all throughout the state. so let's take a look at what that means for us. 60s in the forecast today near san francisco. yesterday we were flirting with the 70s. off into the inland areas we go, close to the 90s near concord and we hit the 90s just near antioch with 70s this afternoon near redwood city and 50s along the coast. now along our coastline, we have that strong coastal breeze. that's our influence right there that keeps us a little bit cooler compared to
5:03 am
the rest of us here of course in our inland areas as we head down into the santa clara valley, 80s in the forecast also for us today. it's a warning afternoon ahead of us. keep that in mind and start hydrating now and wear plenty of light clothing this afternoon. more on the weekend coming up in just a bit. let's talk about the roadways right now. getting ready to take any of the bay area bridges so far so good. live look here at the golden gate bridge. moving along very well. they have not done the lane changes yet for that southbound commute for folks heading over into san francisco. but right now, moving along well and you see a few extra cars northbound due to construction. bay bridge toll plaza, not bad. metering lights are off and we're moving along pretty well through there. overall not a bad commute little busy into the altamont pass. and if you are commuting into gilroy near 152, there's a crash there with a big rig. so do plan for that. let's get to some breaking news this morning over in the east bay. we are live here in castro valley and you can see a lot of fire crews on scene there. a massive fire broke out early this morning. this is at
5:04 am
the lake chabot public market on lake chabot road and quail avenue. still very active and firefighters still putting a lot of water there on the building. the road is closed right now to allow the over 50 firefighters access to knock down the flames and this is again still a very active scene. a lot of smoke in the area. this is what the three alarm fire looked like around 3:30 a.m. just over an hour after the initial call. you can see heavy flames shooting out from the roof of the building there. which is at risk for a partial collapse. now authorities say there's no exposure to other buildings in the neighborhood at this point. and we will keep you updated on this throughout the morning. in other news this morning, the state trial for the man convicted in federal court started with attorneys showing 82-year-old paul pelosi in a pool of blood. david depape is who we're talking about and he was sentenced to 30 years in prison on the federal convictions, the state of california is not done with him yet. the san francisco da charged depape with a slew of
5:05 am
charges including assault with a deadly weapon and elder abuse. this morning, the associated press reporting that elder abuse was really the opening salvo by the prosecution to jurors. jurors also got a glimpse into his life before the attack and his attorney telling them depape was isolated and falling into conspiracy theories living in a richmond garage. opening statements continue in that case today. let's jump the map now to new york on the other side of the country and the hush money trial against former president donald trump. we are getting a picture of some of the juror deliberations going into day two before leaving yesterday, jurors asked to rehear testimony from two key witnesses including trump fixer and former attorney michael cohen. donald trump faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records for covering up a sexual encounter with an adult film actress prior to the 2016 election. donald trump this morning continues to deny any wrongdoing. so all eyes on the jury and verdict watch coming up in a half hour we're
5:06 am
going to be live outside the new york courthouse where the world is on that verdict watch. and let's come back to california. to uc santa cruz now. new video early this morning of the block aid by demonstrators protesting the war in gaza. protesters blocked both of the main entrances to the campus after uc graduate workers launched their protest last week over how the university handled demonstrations. on state campuses all over california. we've also got an update for you this morning. you are seeing this blockade here and we understand once of those blocked entrances was reopened yesterday. but we'll keep our eyes on thisas the sun rises. protesters are watching closely the developments in israel's war against hamas in the palestinian territories. they are angry at news that u.s. bombs were used in the deadly strike on that tent encampment in rafah. that attack prompting even israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu to characterize the strike as a tragic mistake
5:07 am
killing 45. another headline this morning. the military says they have seized control of a tunnel rich portion of gaza's border with egypt where hamas has some operations. so this morning, while more than 100 hostages remain captured by hamas, israel signals the fighting could continue through 2024. and as with all things here in the bay area, we do have a community touchstone locally to the war. just one day before that bombing, that tent bombing, a bay area doctor made her long-awaited return home after helping the sick and injured there in gaza. we're talking about dr. ghada abukuwaik. she treated 40 patients a day including children who were suffering with things like acute diarrhea and hepatitis a. caused by unsanitary conditions in water and food supply. that doctor telling us work to help the people in that region means that she would brave danger to go back and help. >> it becomes a bit safer i would like to go back. i think i find that there's just so much need. if -- and hopefully
5:08 am
the war stops soon, if all of this stops now, there's just so much that the country needs. >> wide reporting suggests after israel's response to the hamas attack months ago including the taking of hostages, 75 to 80% of gaza's total population are without homes that's nearly 2 million people by many estimates. lot of concern from north bay parent this is morning a big fight on a middle school campus has a lot of them pointing to what they say is a problem. running rampant through the school. eight children have been arrested after that fight at seen leah middle school in novato. andrea nakano heard from parents who did ask us to hide their identities. >> reporter: parents like alicia have firsthand experience with confrontations at sinaloa middle l school. she says her daughter has been bullied since the first day of school. >> turned our lives upside down. absolutely upside down.
5:09 am
>> reporter: the latest incident was just a few weeks ago. alicia's frustrated that the school hasn't taken further action to protect her daughter. so she was concerned about how the school handled another fight involving a separate set of students last thursday. >> they assured that it was being handled and the children involved were being reprimanded. >> reporter: but then the next day, some of the same students involved in thursday's fight attacked the same victim. >> from the kids' descriptions, it was -- it was really scary. i mean, the description was hundreds of kids running to go see this fight. >> reporter: according to a spokesperson with the novato unified school district, the school had no previous knowledge of a potential fight on friday and the issues of bullying among students was unknown to the school staff prior to the incident. lisa says her own daughter was attacked by the same girl at
5:10 am
the center of friday's fight. and was angry that she hurt another student. >> this school is aware that this -- girl has been involved in previous problems. you know, it's not the first time around. and there are no consequences when the thing with my child happened. she was only suspended for a day. >> reporter: novato police say after a thorough investigation, this was more than just another fight. and that is why arrests were made. >> the investigation revealed that this was not an isolated incident and this was a planned incident. and that's why this was unusual. >> reporter: many of the parents have kept their child home this week worried about their kids' safety. what happened to alicia's daughter keeping her child home is something she contemplates every day. >> i'm in limbo every morning when i drop my child off at school. in fear that this person is going to be there and she's going to attack my daughter. tim right now 5:10 in the

5:16 am
way in. acting like a heat dome stretching over the state of california. heading into this weekend, we're going to catch just a little bit of a break from that heat. with cloudy skies as we gear up for a warmer week right around the corner into next week though. let's take san jose for example. we are sitting above average today and tomorrow. we cool back down to where we should be for this time of year as we get closer to the first of summer. but then we shoot right back up into the mid 90s heading into mid next week through the inland areas. some big changes really for us as we head into the next seven days. and it all has to do with temperatures and yeah, some winds too. the coastal breeze that we've been experiencing recently, really helps our coastal areas stay a little bit cooler than normal. 59 today in half-moon bay. we're expecting 60s in pacifica. upper 60s into san francisco. i can't say that's the case off in the east bay though. i mean, gosh, 91 degrees all the way over into antioch and as we stretch down into the santa clara valley, we're holding on tight to the warmth too. upper 80s expected this afternoon just
5:17 am
near san jose. looking at the next seven days, well, there's some big changes around the corner. like i mentioned, has to do with that warmth that we're experiencing. that little bit of a break is going to be really nice heading into this weekend. especially for the art and wine festival and plenty of other thing going on for us here in the bay but next week, close to the triple digits right around the corner as we head into the wednesday forecast. that's the inland setup and we'll see cooler conditions along the coast and i'll have more on that coming up in just a bit. g? jessica, thank you. let's talk about the roadways right now. if you are making your way across some of the bay area bridges, now is not -- is a good time to be on the golden gate bridge. look at that. it actually is moving along pretty well with not lot of cashes out there this morning. same for the bay bridge. no metering lights just yet. pretty quiet out on the roadways. our only hotspots are that ride as you work into the altamont pass, westbound 580 and san jose looking pretty good. south of there, if you do travel through gilroy, maybe the pacheco pass area. just a heads-up. pretty far south but on 152 all lanes are blocked. this is for a big rig that toppled over. a
5:18 am
traffic alert has been issued and this is westbound from g 9 ferguson road to furlong avenue. so if you do take 101 say maybe out of morgan hill, gilroy, over to 152, it's going to be pretty tough to make that drive this morning. looks like it's countercommute so that could help. it is a plan to transform a major thoroughfare on the peninsula. caltrans and the city of palo alto are working to bring something that it's never had before. designated bike lanes but as len ramirez reports the lanes could be a cost to businesses along the route. >> reporter: 16-year-old rides a bike as his main transportation around his palo alto neighborhood. but when it comes to the elucaine know he avoids siding on the vote. >> i do ride on the sidewalk just because it feels a lot more comfortable for me. rather than riding on the street where cars are right there. and it's a bit -- it feels a bit dangerous definitely.
5:19 am
>> reporter: he's not alone. in fact many of the people we saw riding in the barren park section did so on the sidewalk and that's because this busy road which doubles as state highway 82 never had bike lanes. but that's about to change. >> we're on the sidewalk now. we would add a bike lane six feet out. it would have a quick curb separated bollard and temporary curve. and now there's a designated place for the biker. >> reporter: ken with the silicon valley bicycle coalition is one of the advocates working with the city of palo alto and caltrans to build bike lanes into a major repaving project coming to the ale camino this fall. the finished lanes would look something like these lanes recently installed in san jose. >> as you noel camino is quite in poor pavement conditions and this is an opportunity to narrow the lanes. slow the speeds down. put in bikeways. and remove parking. all of which will be transformational.
5:20 am
>> reporter: bike advocates say removing street parking will increase side to side vick for cars and bikes and pedestrians making it safer when they cross the el camino or turn on to it from a side street. but some merchants say it will hurt their business. >> they put the bike lane, they are not thinking about the -- car that park in front of the shop and buy and go. you know, they're going to kill those. >> reporter: h san board owned the barren park market for 43 year and says his customers prefer to park on the street. just steps away from the door. he worries what will happen if customers lose that convenience. >> probably we lose about 35%, to 40% of our business. that much. yeah. >> reporter: while it is a loss and certainly some businesses will be more impacted, and for each business, it can be a mitigation plan. >> and we'd like to help with that. because biking is business friendly.
5:21 am
>> reporter: and he point os out many bike riders frequent the businesses on their pikes and although final plans have yet to be approved. he didn't have to think twice about what side he's on. >> we're standing right here and they're parking lots and i feel like the safety of the bikers is probably more important than, you know, the parking retail parking. >> well, the palo alto bike lane project is part of a major overhaul of el camino bike lane improvements are also planned for mountain view and los altos. caltrans plans to install improvements over the next year. hello. hit me dear. don't hit me. >> she can't help but make you laugh and iconic movie

right now on cbs news bay area at 5:29. verdict watch in former president donald trump's hush money trial. jurors entering day two of deliberations in just about an hour. and jarred hill joins us live from outside that courthouse in manhattan. jarred. i'm really fascinated by this. jurors asked to hear some testimony. does that give us any sort of tea leaf about what they're drilling down on? >> reporter: you know, reed, i would hate to give any sort of
5:31 am
definitive answer on anything related to what the jury is doing right now because we don't know but there's the possibility we could maybe glean a little bit of information about what the jury is focusing on based on these questions they're asking in particular. they want to hear some testimony from two of the key witnesses in this case. the fate of former president donald trump now in the hands of 12 manhattan jurors. >> mother teresa could not beat these charges -- but we'll see. >> reporter: today at its request, the jury is expected to have parts of key testimony read back to them from former "national enquirer" editor david pecker and trump's ex-fixer, michael cohen. this includes passages related to a 2015 meeting the two had with trump to discuss an alleged scheme to kill negative stories ahead of the 2016 election. judge juan merchan is also expected to reread some of his instructions to the jury today. >> i think they are going to be quite careful and spend some real time going through the evidence and the instructions. >> reporter: the seven men and five women who make up the jury are deliberating just feet away from the courtroom. no cell
5:32 am
phones are allowed, but they do have access to a laptop with all of the evidence. during his instructions yesterday, judge merchan told the jury to set aside any opinions and bias in reaching their verdict, which must be unanimous. trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records, which prosecutors say was done to hide reimbursements to cohen after he paid adult film star stormy daniels $130,000 to keep quiet before the 2016 election about an alleged sexual encounter. >> they have to come up with a verdict on each of these charges. so it could take a while. >> reporter: trump denies the encounter and any wrongdoing. if convicted, he could face fines and a sentence of up to four years in prison. now in order to convict and i want to read this verbatim. the jury is being asked to decide if trump conspire today promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means. now they've got to be again unanimous on
5:33 am
this verdict. but they don't have to all agree on exactly which unlawful means potentially would have acted upon. reed, back to you. >> fascinating day and all eyes on new york. jarred. thank you so much and one more time. jarred outdresses the internet and broadcasting for another morning on tv. thank you so much. [ laughter ] jarred. good with the greatest mile too. by the way. >> forget it we're all just done. game over. >> i know. we love jarred. all right, taking a live look outside on this thursday morning. look at that gorgeous orange hue there off in the distance. as the sun comes up. you know, just reminds us every day is a new beginning. and you know, an opportunity to make a positive and good impactful change on the world, jess. >> absolutely. and of course to catch jarred hill off-guard too. you never know what the morning show is going to bring right? let's take a quick look at what's going on outside. it is beautiful this morning. this is our live camera overlooking the santa clara valley. down in the south bay, with a beautiful
5:34 am
sunrise above us, it's clear right now. official sunrise is within the next 15 minutes. and to add to that we're going to see some of the warmest weather we've had so far this year. happen today. daytime highs are peaking for us this week and this afternoon and we kind of start to average out this weekend with a little bit cooler conditions right around the corner. but the reason why we've been warming you have so much is because there's a system of high pressure sitting just offshore abilitiing like a heat dome. kind of warming us up even more than we should be for this time of year. this weekend cloudier skies and breezier conditions are right around the corner for us and speaking of that, in the afternoon hours we watch the winds really strengthen along the coastline with anywhere up to 25, 30-mile-per-hour winds at times expected from bodega bay stretching down into san francisco. the temperatures too. 80s in the forecast for us this afternoon. from novato all the way up into santa rosa. san francisco today, holding on tight to the upper 60s and yesterday we were in the low 70s. so we're kind of
5:35 am
teetering back and forth there. all thanks to that onshore flow it really impacts that inland influence compared to the coastal influence. what i mean by that is we're expecting 90s today and 80s anywhere from antioch into livermore. we have 80s this afternoon down near san jose and we're going to have more on what you can expect with the next week ice big warm-up right around the corner. but for now over to you, g. thanks. taking a look at the roadways and get a quick look at some of the bay area bridges this morning. like the golden gate bridge. moving along nicely heading into san francisco this morning. over at the bay bridge, starting to see that backup building and metering lights just turned on a moment ago. and it's certainly getting a little bit slow on some of our approaches but overall, a pretty nice commute as you head in and out of the east bay over towards san francisco. now if you are traveling into the altamont pass, we have reports of a crash westbound 205 at 580. and starting to get a little bit slow northbound 101 as you approach to 280/680 area. in the east bay breaking news. we are live in castro valley and here's a live look and you can see a lot of fire crews out there. a massive fire
5:36 am
broke out early this morning. this is at the lake chabot public market on lake chabot road and quail avenue. the road is completely shut down right now no through traffic and it's to allow the over 50 alameda county firefighters to get the flames. this is still though a very active scene and you can see a lot of smoke still billowing there from it had building. that is what the fire looked like at 3:30 a.m. you can see heavy flames shooting out from the roof of the building. which is at risk for a partial collapse. authorities say there's no exposure to other buildings in the neighborhood at this point. and one neighbor said she noticed a glow and saw the store that she used to frequent now severely damaged. >> i come here a lot. there's a lot of restaurants in there. and ice cream shops and barbecue places and maybe that's what caught on fire. i
