redo the tiles, reincorporate them. >> maybe there a walkway or a pathway of some sort within the new park, a new permanent location has not been announced as yet. >> part of a scenic california highway washes away over the weekend, the work happening this morning to get hundreds of stranded people off the big sur coast. >> they know they can just commit crimes and get away with it. like they can violate us and it's okay. like they know the owner of a clothing store in oakland in disbelief after a thief ransacked her store on easter weekend, she wants the city to do more to help businesses like hers from being targeted. >> and oakland mayor shengtao wants changes in how a new police chief is picked. why? she says only the mayor and city administrator should be involved . >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two and good morning, good morning to you and

welcome to mornings on two. >> i'm claudine wong. i know who you are. oh, well, good to see you. >> it's good to see you. good morning, i'm dave clark. welcome to monday. first day of april. no april fools joke. and steve paulson is here with your forecast. i think you'll like it. >> lots of sunshine and warmer temps. claudine wong, the fabulous claudine wong, of course. thank you for the dawn patrol. we appreciate that. >> well, thanks for the good weather. i've been waiting. >> finally, at least for two days. then after that, we're going right back into cold and wind and rain. all right. but today looks great here. a little chill in the morning air, but that's all right. sunny side up here. oh, san jose, you're clear. don't worry about 40s on the temps here. we will end up with lots of sunshine and an offshore breeze. and that equals let the sun shine in. that's what we're doing today and tomorrow. and temps will bump up. should get some low to mid 70s, if not today for sure. tomorrow and above average on the highs. i haven't said that in a while. 60s and 70s. all right, sally is here. it was quiet for about an hour and a half and all of a sudden it got

busy. and she is starting with what i am starting with the east bay. >> there's still a couple problem spots, but overall things seem to be calming down just a little bit. so maybe we have been through the height of this morning's commute the monday morning after easter sunday. not as many people out on the roads, but there are still some problems, including the ones you see here on this traffic map. this is southbound 680, just before 232. there was a collision there. vehicles off on the shoulder, and then you see a little bit of sluggish traffic on northbound or excuse me, westbound highway four, but no specific issues. this crash you see here is actually off the freeway in the pittsburgh area. it'll take you under 20 minutes to get from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze. so that's overall a good drive on that east shore freeway. 880 in oakland, past the coliseum north and southbound looks pretty good. and highway 24 in lafayette also getting a little more light now that the bulk of those drivers have made their way through the caldecott tunnel. 702 let's go back to the desk. >> all right. thank you, ali. well, san jose police are investigating a crash that led

to death of a pedestrian. it happened last night at about 730 in the 500 block of saratoga avenue, near one of the campuses of the harker private school. authorities say a man was walking down the street when he was hit by a car. police say he suffered major injuries and died at the scene. saratoga avenue was closed in both directions near moorpark avenue. so far, police have not identified the pedestrian or said what happened to the driver of the car. this is san jose's seventh pedestrian death so far this year, putting the city on track to surpass last year's total of 26 pedestrian deaths. >> our time is now 702. we're hearing from an east bay clothing designer and business owner after her business was ransacked. easter sunday surveillance video here shows the thief breaking into the taylor j collection store, stealing purses and clothing, many of which were hand designed by the owner. and then the thief came back a second time and stole suitcases and a cash register system. >> i just felt violated. it was

just traumatic. like it's already been really hard just being a business owner in oakland, having like physical locations. and so just knowing that someone came into a space that we pay for, that we put all our energy or time and money and life into. it just felt terrible. >> well, now the owner, taylor j. estimates at least $20,000 in damages and property losses. other businesses on that same block have been hit as well, including two different bakeries . >> a stabbing victim is expected to recover. >> yes, and a suspect is in custody after an attack sunday morning. san francisco police were called to ocean and lee avenues at 9:00 yesterday morning near city college. the video from citizen app shows the scene where the man was stabbed. suspect was arrested, but it's still not clear what led to that attack. >> oakland mayor sheng tao is once again talking about changing the city charter to ban the police commission from taking part in the next search for a police chief, according to

the east bay times, mayor tao's latest comments say only the mayor and city administrator should be hiring the police chief right now. under the city's charter, the mayor selects the police chief from a list provided by the police commission. but mayor tao argues that process is not effective. a change would require a new ballot initiative. oakland meant more than a year without a permanent police chief until late last month, when floyd mitchell was named by the mayor as the new chief. >> it is now 704. a former executive at caltrain is now accused of turning some areas of public train stations into private homes. san mateo county da's office charged joseph navarro with felony theft of public funds. prosecutors say he was helped by a former employee of a caltrain contractor when he secretly built apartments at two train stations on the peninsula. they say navarro's apartment was a remodeled office space in the agency's historic burlingame train station, and prosecutors

say his alleged accomplice also had an apartment at the caltrain station in millbrae. >> the city of oakland reportedly plans to offer a five year lease extension to the a's at the coliseum. espn reports that the deal would give the a's a temporary home until its new stadium in las vegas is built as part of that new deal, the a's would pay more than $19 million a year over five years. that's for a total of $97 million. reports show that right now they pay just 1.25 million per year. now the a's current lease at the coliseum expires at the end of this season. the two sides are planning on meeting on tuesday about that proposed new contract . that does include an opt out. >> after three years, our time now just about 706. an important move in san jose for more affordable housing. the city council unanimously approved an anti-gentrification rule it will help protect low income renters under the new law, 20% of affordable apartments in new city funded properties will be

reserved for lower income applicants living in high displacement areas. now, applications are open for a program to give money every month to some low income families. in milpitas, the city will be giving 50 families living or working in milpitas $645 a month for rental housing support for up to two years. the money will go straight to their landlords for paying the rent. the applications are due by the end of the month. >> despite a few sunday showers. for the most part, the weather cooperated for the thousands of people who showed up for a special easter celebration in san francisco. the sisters of perpetual indulgence hosted their 45th annual easter in the park event yesterday. it started back in 1979 when there were only four members. now there are thousands of members of that organization. march 31st is also the transgender day of visibility. sisters came from around the world to celebrate in their founding city.

>> the sisters are a wonderful reflection of our community. so we are the l, the g, the b, the t, the q, the i and the a of our community. what a better way to give them visibility than to throw some glitter and rhinestones on each other and prance around the park on easter sunday. >> we all come together in the spirit of togetherness and joy, to spread that joy and give it to other people, and that just recharges the battery. >> well, the organization says it's devoted to community service and outreach. there was an easter egg hunt and other activities for people of all ages. >> well, the uc berkeley's snow lab is reporting that a foot and a half of new snow fell over the past couple of days. and you're looking at video here from last month. the snow level is now at 107% of normal. let's go right over to steve paulson. we're actually we'll get to steve a little bit later on. but steve will tell you what's happening up there and his predictions of more snow coming later in the week. >> first, we want to show you some of the traffic cameras that

we are keeping an eye on. overall traffic seems to be doing pretty well and recovering from some earlier problems we were telling you about in the last hour. take a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. it is moving. not too much of a delay. we don't see any backups getting back up onto 880 there, so. or excuse me, 80 on that overpass. that's usually what sal likes to keep an eye on to, to kind of get an idea as to whether there's going to be any problems. it looks like that traffic camera is having some issues, but 880 in oakland, also nice and clear in the north and southbound direction past the coliseum. also taking a look at san jose 280 in that northbound direction past downtown. no problems there to tell you about 800. excuse me, 708. let's go back to the desk. >> okay. ali. thank you. well, this is no april fools joke today. you could possibly become a billionaire. the jackpot for tonight's powerball lottery drawing is estimated at $975 million. it would be the game's fifth largest jackpot ever. and

so far, it's the biggest jackpot this year. now, back on new year's day, someone in michigan won 842.5 million. we interviewed several first time lottery players here in the bay area, including a young lady who can now legally buy a lottery ticket because she just turned 18. >> it's exciting. it's different. i haven't i've never done something like that before. so it's kind of fun. >> you made me play, you know, because, i mean, i don't run with luck. so i mean, like you said, it's $1 billion, so i mean, it's worth a shot. >> yeah. it is. and now several big lottery winning tickets have been sold at ernie's liquor store in san jose. a group of bank employees won a half billion dollars with a mega millions ticket back in 2018. your time now. 710 a tragedy in truckee. the latest on investigators giving us new information about a plane that crashed over the weekend and how the passengers had ties here to

the bay area and carpool lanes in california, soon to be exclusive for carpoolers changes ahead for clean air vehicle access, and a quick reminder that you can now stream ktvu news on your smart tv. >> you can watch live newscasts and stories on demand on your smart tv. amazon fire tv, roku, apple tv, and android tv to search for the fox local app and se ct k

and wife killed in a small plane crash in truckee, ktvu. >> andre senior in the studio. now to tell us more about the couple who died and also give us an update on the investigation. >> dave. claudine. good morning. a sad, sad development here. just a little bit more about it here. both the national transportation safety board and federal aviation administration are investigating the crash. a single engine turboprop plane went down in truckee during moderate snowfall on saturday. investigators identifying the couple as lauren and naomi petruska. the couple worked for the palo alto tech investment firm up west, which invests in israeli startups. lauren petruska joined up west in 2012 as a partner and became an adviser to the fund in 2017. >> such an inspiring guy, allison. personally, as a i hope he rest in peace. i hope the

family will be good. our heart is with them. >> up west posted a message on social media saying the company is, quote, heartbroken by this loss. the post described the couple as having, quote, big hearts who touched the lives of everyone they met. friends say lauren was an entrepreneur, venture capitalist and mentor as well. >> it's a big loss for us, a community in the silicon valley, and it's a big shoes to fill up. i hope that all of us will keep on supporting, the next generation of founders like he did up west says israel was a big part of the kids lives. >> they supported numerous jewish initiatives and social causes. the russkies were the only people on board that plane that was flying out of an airport in denver, back to northern california, when the aircraft went down saturday evening. no homes were damaged, but nearby railroad tracks must now be repaired. meteorologists say it was snowing during the flight, with visibility about half a mile facing light winds that plane crash happened between railroad tracks and the

truckee river, less than two miles from the truckee tahoe airport. the birx had three sons. they leave behind claudine . >> very, very sad. all right. thank you. andre. well, carpool lanes in california, excuse me. will soon be reserved just for carpools. right now, these carpool lanes allow cars with two or more people. and also allow cars with maroon, green and yellow stickers. those decals are for clean air vehicles. california started allowing clean air vehicles to use carpool lanes. back in 1999, but the dmv says starting in 2025, they will no longer be allowed. and that comes after governor newsom signed an executive order back in 2020 requiring all new cars and passenger trucks sold in the state to be zero emission vehicles by 2035. happening today, city leaders in palo alto will decide whether or not to get rid of parking spaces along el camino real to make room for bike lanes. caltrans is going to be repaving el camino, and has proposed adding those bike lanes along the road through palo

alto. the agency says the changes would make the roads safer, but the city council does have to sign off on that plan to remove parking, even though caltrans has authority over el camino, which is a state highway. >> okay, claudine, time is now 716. we're going right back to allie. rasmus for the latest on our monday morning commute. allie wait a minute. >> oh, you know what? >> well, it happens to everybody. allie. okay give me a second. >> do you hear me now? all right. yeah, i hear well, i was going to give you some good news. good news? things are improving overall on the roadways. we'll start with a live look at the traffic maps in the south bay. because overall there have not been too many problems there. you see a couple icons there about some reported fires, but those are off the freeway, not on the freeway. and there's no traffic slowdowns or backups really, here to tell you about. now it's another story. if you're heading farther south from here by big sur highway one, as we've been reporting all morning, there is a partial road closure there because of the

highway was going away during this weekend's storms. but here in the south bay, this port part of the south bay, you are just fine. so let's show you a live picture of 280 as you pass downtown traffic moving smoothly . and then from there we'll head up to east contra costa county and take a look at that part of your commute. you do see some very slow traffic in the westbound direction of highway four at bay point. no specific crashes here, just a lot of people trying to get through to the other parts of the east bay. we'll continue to keep an eye on it. here's the golden gate bridge, a nice sunrise picture as you see those traffic or those cars heading into the city. no problems there to tell you about it, and it looks like a bit of an offshore breeze. steve paulson i keep an eye on that flagpole, and it looks like the wind is blowing towards the ocean, not the opposite direction. so maybe that's a sign of this nice weather and this warmer weather that we have

to enjoy later today. steve i was going to quiz you, ali, and you nailed it. >> that is an offshore breeze coming in from albany past the gate fields. well done, well done. yes. offshore direction. we'll take a look at. that's going to make for some nice temps today. we'll take a look at the weekend snow totals and some of the rain totals start up in the mountains. there tahoe. donner 21in. new snow. northstar 20. heavenly 14. bear valley 14. sugar bowl 17. homewood at 18 palisades tahoe had 13ft of snow in the month of march. well, we talked about it looked like santa cruz mountains might take the bulk of the rain on the weekend, and sure enough, they did. ben loman, 209 boulder creek, 207 morgan hill. just shy of two, although that was thunderstorm driven. and then bonnie doon 1.86, there are other fairfax had 1.7 at la honda observer matt hanlon had 1.72, but petaluma an inch and a quarter. santa rosa over an inch. redwood city and vallejo, both at 8/10, san jose two thirds beating oakland and san francisco at 59/100. powerhouse low down in arizona right now,

it's taken the turn. that will be a big weather maker as it moves out of the four corners into the texas area and the plains. there we get the offshore breeze. that thunderstorm activity from yesterday is pushed out of the area. so 40s and 50s. half moon bay is down to 41. menlo park's in there as well. otherwise napa though at 55, vacaville 55. they have a breeze. that'll do it. 40 in woodside, 40 at stanford campus, menlo park. also in there, los altos, atherton, 41, san carlos, redwood city, 43. so a little chill there in the morning. air two bits in south lake tahoe, 36. prescott 47, phoenix 49. las vegas and 39 arcadia. quite cold for the 1st of april here. that system is on its way out as we talked about. so that ends any activity for us. we're on the drier side today and tomorrow. i think tomorrow will be the warmest day with some mid 70s to the high winds out. but then big changes are on the way. again. another low is going to drop in starting thursday and friday. colder, windy with more rain and mountain snow probably taking us into at least saturday with

another system possible sunday evening into monday. but today no fooling. sunny and warmer. highs upper 60s, low to mid 70s. >> okay thank you steve. well record breaking gold prices there soaring. what's sending those prices higher. >> and if right after you eat a meal you head right back to your refrigerator or pantry. it may not be because you have a big appetite or that you're greedy. we tell you what psychologists y about t s ence o

health researchers at a sleep clinic in tampa. we could be the sleep. oh, yeah, in florida, they studied hundreds of employees who normally work from 11:00 at night until 7:00 in the morning, and they found those overnight workers typically fall way short of the eight hours of sleep. they say is needed to stay healthy. >> and we have found that shift workers are more susceptible to having increased inflammation in their body and that inflammation can be, a risk factor for developing things like metabolic syndrome and obesity and heart disease. breast cancer risks and cancer risks are higher in shift workers. >> yep. i'm not sure i know anyone who's getting eight hours

on this shift. all right, well, medical experts are urging those overnight workers to try to develop a consistent sleep pattern, if possible, and say they should take daytime naps whenever they can. >> i will try my best. all right. time is 724. there's also a new study suggesting a circuit in the brain of some people may make them crave food even when they're not hungry. researchers at ucla found that during experiments with mice, when a certain circuit in the brain was stimulated, the mice would start looking for food even if they'd just eaten, and the mice would choose fatty comfort foods like chocolate instead of healthier foods like vegetables. the researchers say if these same findings can be confirmed in people, perhaps new treatments could be developed for eating disorders and scientists have found chemicals in many common household items could be hurting our brains. a medical research team from cleveland released a study of a major new study. it

found that chemicals that are in many household cleaners and beauty products could be linked to degenerative brain diseases like multiple sclerosis and autism. the researchers are working on guidelines now to help determine what level of exposure to these products would be safe for most consumers. well humans aren't the only species that suffer from allergies in the spring. >> more pets, especially dogs, are being treated for itchy skin and seasonal allergies. a pet insurance company says allergies topped the list of health conditions that bring pet owners to the vet. they reported a 45% increase in 2023 compared to 2019, and allergy claims for insured pets. >> all right, our time is 726. are we too quick to label other people as toxic? we'll tell you why. a psychiatrist warns that once you use that terme, there's no turning back. >> and it was once considered just a gesture of appreciation.

but now some people say it's a source of annoyance. there is a new survey we're talking about that shows why consumers s they are experiencing

many california fast food workers get a pay raise to $20 an hour. we'll tell you how this change could affect your next meal and work crews in baltimore focused on opening an alternate channel near where the bridge collapsed to reopen. important shipping routes. we'll bring you the latest updates from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two. >> well, good morning and thank you for joining us. welcome to mornings on two. i'm dave clark and i'm claudine wong. >> it is monday april 1st. and if you were thinking gosh, i am ready for some sunshine, steve is going to deliver at least for a couple of days today and tomorrow. >> i'm your fair weather friend. yeah. after that, no, san anselmo. what about it? well, they had an inch and a third between friday and sunday on rainfall. san rafael was in there as well. vallejo and redwood city both had 8/10. los gatos, clear lake and half moon

bay picked up three quarters of an inch. santa cruz mounds, though, where the leaders of the pack with over two there, 40 on the temps here quite cool for some there. low 40s for many, but we are looking for sunshine and offshore breeze, so let the sunshine in today and tomorrow. i think tomorrow will be the warmest day. maybe pushing a few mid upper 70s tomorrow if everything falls into place. highs today for one of the few times above average. all right. allies here. east bay somewhere else, east to south bay. so that transition area. and that's where there is a new crash that is blocking one of the middle lanes. this is on 880 southbound at just south of the fremont boulevard off ramp. you can see that there is a little bit of a back backup building behind this in that northbound direction, northbound south northbound 880 just south of fremont, and one of the middle lanes blocked. they have a tow truck on the way to hopefully get that cleared soon. san mateo bridge traffic is doing okay. getting over to the peninsula. no major problems there. 880 in oakland looks good

. this has been a light, relatively light commute all morning long and golden gate bridge. no problems either. 731 let's go back to the desk. >> okay, ali. thank you. well, starting today, most fast food workers in california will be paid a minimum wage of $20 an hour. ktvu is amanda quintana is here to tell us the impacts this new minimum wage could have. good morning. amanda >> good morning. yes. well that's a $4 an hour increase. it used to be a $16 an hour minimum wage. so now this applies to anyone who's working at a fast food restaurant. so that's a restaurant that has a chain with 60 restaurants, 60 locations. it also has to include somewhere where they have limited or no table service. so that includes a place like mcdonald's here. so this will give californians who work in fast food restaurants one of the highest minimum wages in the country, the state's minimum wage for all other workers is $15.50 an hour. labor

unions and the fast food industry have been fighting over wages for years before lawmakers passed this law last year, saying many of the more than 500,000 fast food workers in the state aren't teens earning spending money. they're adults. depending on that money to support their families, employers have had very good profits are high in the industry. and, and so there's also room for them to absorb the wage increases. >> so, so what does this mean for the customer? well, some major chains like mcdonald's, chipotle, starbucks, jack in the box and shake shack have already said that they will have to raise menu prices. now layoffs are also a concern, and workers could get fewer hours because of this. there's also a concern that workers that work for other restaurants might then want to work for fast food restaurants

to get that higher wage, and so those other restaurants might lose some of their employees. so we're going to have to wait and see the impact of this. and we will watch and see as this happens. but again, today is the first day for that new minimum wage. live in lafayette. amanda quintana, ktvu, fox two news okay, amanda, thank you. >> time 733 later today, rideshare drivers in san francisco plan to rally, demanding fair treatment and better pay. the drivers from uber and lyft will stage several events about critical issues affecting their work. the rally will go from the uber headquarters to lyft headquarters. both are in san francisco. some of the issues they will address are low pay, unfair deactivations, high company fees and safety risks. the drivers also are concerned about the impact of autonomous vehicles and how that affects the industry. >> well, in baltimore, crews are working to establish an alternate channel around the

site of that collapsed bridge in order to allow shipping traffic to resume at that port. >> and the demolition crews are busy. they're cutting through pieces of the mangled metal, hoping to clear a navigational channel. now, the biden administration approved $60 million in emergency relief, but that's just the beginning. transportation secretary pete buttigieg hopes congress will release even more funds. >> if you remember the 2007 bridge collapse in minnesota, ultimately about $260 million put together, including funds that were put through congress on a bipartisan basis. and i hope and expect this to will be a bipartisan priority. >> but hey it's not clear how long it may take to establish that alternate channel. well, the collapse of the bridge in baltimore is bringing attention to other bridges around the country. >> the national transportation safety board says the francis scott key bridge was in satisfactory condition before before it was hit by that cargo ship. but data from the federal

government reveals more than 42,000 bridges across the u.s. are in what's considered poor condition. >> 1 in 3 bridges across the united states need some sort of repair or reconstruction work now, because of the amount of money needed to repair a bridge, some older bridges do remain closed, and that impacts surrounding communities by throwing off supply chain routes for trucks and impacting emergency vehicle response times . >> our time is now. 735 a cardiologist from minnesota is trying to extend the lives of first responders. there are new studies out showing firefighters are three times more likely to have a heart attack than those in the general workforce. police officers have their first heart attack almost 20 years earlier than the general population that cardiologist says nutrition is one of the keys to a healthy and long life. >> you think that, you know, firefighters, the you know they die because of smoke inhalation

or injury on the job and that does happen. but the number one reason five firefighters die is heart disease. >> they drop dead of heart attacks. you may not have the time to sit there and eat a well-balanced meal and go to a microwave and warm up your leftover chicken. >> you know that you made and counted your calories. you may just have to go through a drive through, go to a gas station, shove a snickers in your mouth, and go to the next call. >> now the cardiologist is working with law enforcement agencies around the country to improve their diet. she says. in just a month, picking the right foods can significantly improve cholesterol levels. >> a psychiatrist says that once we use the word toxic to describe someone, there is no going back. according to the wall street journal, the word leaves no room for nuance or context, and they say this approach holds us back from understanding others and provides an excuse to distance ourselves from them. so what is the remedy? search for the information that contradicts a

knee jerk response to label someone as toxic. and she adds that while it's naive to believe that everyone's intentions are noble, it might be worth at least considering the why behind a person's actions. time now 737 skiers and snowboarders enjoyed a lot of new snow in the sierra over the easter holiday weekend. there was a fresh layer of snow that now covers the lake tahoe area, and there are reports that between 12 to 25in fell over the weekend. now, this late surge of winter like weather will push resorts to stay open past their expected season. >> you can do that, claudia. >> i'm excited. i was sitting there thinking, i've got to get back up there again because it's so late. you know, the first couple of trips that you went up there in december and january, there just wasn't much there. and, and, you know, and now this snow is actually like winter snow in spring. you're going to have to raise allie rasmus up there. >> i love spring skiing. and you know, last year we didn't really get that much spring skiing unless you were skiing in the

summer because it was so cold. i remember going to heavenly and may thinking i was going to have nice bluebird days, and there was a snowstorm that weekend. so the conditions are really good looking forward to that. we'll be heading up next week, but for this week i'm filling in for sal because he is on spring break this week, keeping an eye on the traffic. and overall on this monday, after easter sunday. it's not too bad out there. there's some slow spots as we would expect, including the richmond-san rafael bridge toll plaza, where you can see traffic kind of slugging along, getting over into marin county, no specific stalls or crashes, just a little bit of slow monday morning traffic. things are clearing up a little bit on westbound highway four at bay point. it was much more crowded here when we checked this camera just about 15 minutes ago, and the bay bridge toll plaza has improved as well. no delays to get onto the span. 738 you can see a lot of sunshine in these traffic cameras, steve. >> we do today and again tomorrow. end of the week we won't, but today and tomorrow we do. we'll look back at the sierra snowfall for the weekend, friday, saturday and sunday. not

too bad. and claudine just mentioned tahoe donner 21in of new snow. north star 20. heavenly 14. bear valley 14. sugar bowl, homewood at 17 and 18. kirkwood had 16 season totals right now. sugar bowl's at 461 for the season. boreal went over 400 over the weekend as well. rainfall. ben lowman, the leader of the pack as far as i could see, 2.09 boulder creek was closed. 207 morgan hill. thunderstorms generated some hefty rain totals there, just shy of two inches of rain and bonnie doon 1.86. the location clear. lahonda 1.72 fairfax was closed. petaluma an inch and a quarter, santa rosa over an inch. redwood city and vallejo, both with 8/10. san jose 63/100. oakland and san francisco 59. where's our system now? it's in arizona, making for a active morning down there. it looks like some high elevation snow and more severe weather, probably for them. our system though. yesterday, late in the afternoon boy it came right down off the sierra over the motherlode and then in the

valley, clipped eastern parts, southern parts of the bay area, but has now pushed south and we have an offshore breeze in place north at mount veeder, north at oakland hills. that's right above the claremont and northeast, and boulder creek 23mph. so that means warmer santa rosa, walnut creek, palo alto, san jose, 60. yesterday i went mid mid 70s santa rosa with a north breeze 72 walnut creek, palo alto and san jose 40 on the temps here to a few 50s. napa airport, vacaville at 5440 boulder creek. mid 40s for most, although santa clara is down to 42. felton and socal down there and aptos at 43, 18 and 25. truckee south lake tahoe 49. down in las vegas 47. phoenix and arcadia still at 39. rain moves out. showers, thunderstorms now into arizona. southern california not our problem. sunny warmer today and tomorrow. you guys. >> hey, steve. thank you. time now. 741 thousands of cars and suvs are being recalled. if details of the problem that could put drivers in danger and

now let's check in with andre senior for a look at what's coming up in our 8:00 hour of mornings on two. >> claudine. >> dave. good morning to you. open. i venturing into voice assistance with technology capable of cloning voices, but the company decided not to release it to the public just yet. we'll have more on that and later on the nine. it's a growing concern that's taking social media by storm. more women say they are getting pregnant while on birth control and using medications that help with weight loss. we will talk live with a doctor out the ew business. it's not a nine-to-five proposition. it's all day and into the night.

the largest community college led quantum program in the nation to inclusively meet the fast growing demand for this quantum workforce. and with multiple industry, startup and ecosystem partners like mhub here, all things we will build out the necessary infrastructure to provide companies with specialized hardware, software and networks that they need to develop and test their innovations. the bloc will not only bolster quantum technology developments, but it will have a massive regional and economic impact in the next decade. >> we will create 30,000 quantum

jobs, trained 50,000 workers and support 200 quantum companies and ultimately generate over $60 billion in economic impact for the region. this. >> is about what? and in chicago, we're really the best place to push this forward. we have unparalleled quantum resources and a robust, robust, diverse ecosystem that is deeply connected to the quantum universe. >> the chicago quantum exchange has long been leading the charge building these quantum expertise and partnerships. >> once home to duality, as governor pritzker mentioned, the nation's first quantum startup accelerator, the chicago is actually number two in the nation for deals made by quantum startups to the. we have a deep industry base with fortune 500 companies, many of which, like ibm and microsoft, who are already partners with our quantum companies like inflection and cubrid and our universities, national labs and community colleges have the

world's top experts in quantum information science. you heard about how illinois has four of the ten national quantum center initiatives. the institute is funded by nsf and the department of energy, and we also have one of the country's largest quantum ready talent pipelines. we award almost 60,000 degrees and certificates annually in quantum relevant skills, and we have so many other ecosystem partners who are focused on this, on quantum. groups like world business chicago and p 33. we have statewide public private partnerships like innovate illinois and of course, government leaders like governor pritzker, who are championing the field to ensure that we're all working together, rowing in the same direction and maximizing our regional and national impact. so catalyzed by the economic development administration and powered by our chicago ecosystem and all of using the block will harness and scale the power of quantum technology and lead the nation to a sustainable and inclusive quantum economy. so now i'd like to introduce one of our many

strong industry partners on this application. and vice president of ibm quantum, jay gambetta, to tell. i'm also scared to touch the mic. the okay. i hope you all can hear me. good morning. as it was said, my name is jay gambetta. i'm the vice president of quantum at ibm. first i would like to thank i would like to extend a thank you to the governor and the governor office and the block tap tech for organizing this event. to my team at ibm. looks forward to being a part of this important project from the bloc tecom. this includes advancing the next exploration of industry relevant application and building a quantum quantum workforce. my team at ibm, my mission is simple. >> we want to bring useful quantum computing to the world, but we can't do it alone. it is only possible through a strong global quantum ecosystem, including public, private

partnerships and collaboration and collaboration such as the work that is being pursued by the technical. >> this block tech hub. we quantum computing is in an emergent stage. our systems have just got to the point where we can do what we call quantum utility. this is where we can run something on a computer that is beyond brute force simulation . but to keep the field moving and to realize the full potential of quantum, it is critical that our ecosystem advances the search for quantum algorithms. we are thrilled to be aligned with the governor and the state of illinois. as we seek to accelerate the discovery of such quantum algorithms and with these discoveries, to find industry applications. the momentum, the momentum in quantum computing in the midwest and illinois is strong and primed for this moment. for example, the ibm illinois discovery accelerator at uiuc is focused on in advancing accelerating discovery with using quantum in ai. another example is the work we're doing

with the university of chicago as part of an ambitious ten year partnership with ibm and the university of tokyo. >> we're going to research the system modularity and interconnects and algorithms. we also have extended that with our colleagues at seoul national university. our university and yonsei university to train 40,000 students for so with our partners at quantum exchange, we are very we will be key to they will be key to executing many of these goals. we're eager to continue to build the strong relationships with this community. so as the tech hub advances its mission, we look forward to expanding ibm's workforce in illinois as the adoption of quantum in industries across the region grows. thank you all and i can't wait to get started. with that, please help me welcome doctor martin shibahara, director of product development at microsoft

. office. thank you, jay, for the introduction. i'm martin sugihara, director of product management at azure quantum at microsoft. it's an honor to be here and share a few details about microsoft's quantum program and our plans to collaborate with institutions in illinois. as a quantum tech hub member here in chicago, microsoft started developing quantum technologies nearly two decades ago, and our azure quantum program encompasses quantum computing, quantum networking, and development of quantum hardware and quantum applications for some of our most publicized achievements include development of the q sharp quantum programing language. >> our recent successes with the azure quantum platform and computational chemistry and the development of devices that exhibit the topological gap. today, we are also preparing for a quantum safe future from this

transition to become quantum ready is important due to the risks of quantum technologies looming in the future, including the possibility of scale to quantum computers. to strengthen our present encryption standard. >> this is the reason why we are advancing our quantum safe program to. as part of the broader quantum tech hub phase two. >> microsoft proposes to build the first commercial grade quantum network testbed in chicago metropolitan area. this quantum network will include the ability to securely distribute quantum keys using quantum key distribution to. the project was designed to use local facilities here at hubs to iterate new technologies. it will also plan to partner with local businesses and customers to ensure the greatest potential for long terms. commercial success of the network. finally our proposed project will also deepen our

existing partnerships with local universities and community colleges and develop new educational pathways to train students in quantum information science and help place workers in quantum jobs. we are grateful for the support of the state of illinois that created the environment for the local quantum ecosystem to thrive. the appreciate governor pritzker support of the second phase of the block, quantum tech hub of the innovate illinois program, and the engagement of local economic and workforce development nonprofits. microsoft is proud to partner with members and affiliates of the block tech hub, including quantum startups, industry rtners, world leading un

side, closing its emergency room because of storm damage. the hospital in moss beach is expected to reopen the e.r. in 6 to 9 months. administrator say extensive repairs are needed. however county supervisor ray mueller, who represents the san mateo county coast, said he has grave concerns about the impact of this closure on the community. he says the seton coastside emergency room is the only facility of its kind serving that region. well, despite major strides in diversity, the past 15 years,

the american nursing workforce is still underrepresented. a federal study showed that black and hispanic nurses are still a large minority in the nursing field. registered black nurses only made up 11% of the workforce in 2022, but that's up from 8% in 2018 and about 55% in 2008. the share of hispanic nurses actually went down to 10% in 2022, from 12% in 2018. the share of nurses who speak spanish also went down to 7, from 9. well, kaiser permanente announced the opening of a new state of the art genome lab. it's designed to provide comprehensive genetic testing for its 4.5 million members. the kaiser says this new lab goes beyond traditional genetic testing to more complex

genomics, offering new possibilities for personalized precision medicine. that lab is in san jose. it will perform its first noninvasive prenatal screening test tomorrow. it's also a new study from kaiser permanente northern california that links drink ing to heart disease among women researchers who studied the health files of almost a half million people between the ages of 18 and 65, and found that young to middle age women who drank more than one alcoholic beverage a day were about 33 to 50% more likely to develop heart disease than those who drank less. if female binge drinkers, that's four or more drinks during one occasion had a 68% higher chance of developing heart disease. all right, our time is 758. dog owners who think their pets can really understand them and may

be on to something. researchers in hungary found that dogs can understand certain words and their meanings. that's especially true when the words refer to their favorite things, like bring me your ball. they know. the study found that dogs can create a mental image of an object, like a toy or a leash. after hearing it repeated. scientists call it referential understanding, and it hasn't been proven in dogs until now. well, in just over a week from now, parts of the nation will be able to see a full solar eclipse . and while we here in the bay area may not be able to see the total eclipse, it could affect us in different ways. the faa says the total solar eclipse on april the 8th will result in some delays for travelers. there's a possibility for bigger impacts on airports and states in the path of that solar eclipse, including texas,

oklahoma, arkansas, missouri, illinois and maine. >> well, good morning. part of a scenic california highway washing away over the weekend, stranding people off the big sur coast. the work underway this morning to help those affected then they know they can just commit crimes and get away with it. >> like they can violate us. and it's okay. like they know crime and consequences. >> thieves ransacking an oakland clothing store on easter weekend and the owner tells us what she wants. the city to do for her and other victims of crime in oakland's new police chief starts to shop soon, but mayor shengtao still wants to see changes to how a chief is hired in the future. >> from ktvu, fox two news this is mornings on two. welcome to mornings on two 8:00. >> as you look live at oakland this morning, you can see the reflection of the sun off the buildings right now. the question is, how's the rest of your monday going to be shaping up? thank you so much for joining us. i'm andre senior and i'm claudine wong.

>> i am ready for that sunshine. i've been looking forward to it. steve paulson has been ordering it up. i don't care if it's only for a couple of days. i need just a couple of days to just kind of feel that warmth. >> claudine, i do it for you. >> thank you. i appreciate it. >> any time today and tomorrow. no doubt about it. it's 40. a little chill in the morning air for early april, but we'll end up with lots of sunshine and mild to warm temps here because we still have an offshore breeze. that's that'll help. days are longer now and you get to april. angle the sun a little higher. pretty good thunderstorms late yesterday afternoon. east and south. but those are now long gone. so let the sun shine in. that's what we'll do today. temperatures bumping up i think we'll get some low maybe mid 70s, but probably tomorrow will be the warmest day but above average. we haven't seen that in a while. 60s and 70s. all right ali is here. we've been east. we've been south. we're going this time where we are going north. >> we're going to check out marin county because unfortunately there is a report of a crash on southbound 101 at tamalpais drive. we can show you the map and give you an idea of where this is. there you see it? this crash icon just popped up

about an hour ago, you see? or excuse me, a minute ago. and you do see a bit of a backup starting to build really quickly up into larkspur again. this is southbound 101 just north of tamalpais drive. two vehicles involved an injury crash. an ambulance is on the way. here's the richmond san rafael bridge toll plaza. it is very slow. it's been sluggish for the last hour or so. your drive is getting a little longer from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze. 23 minutes. when it was under 20 for much of the morning. and here's the bay bridge toll plaza. once you reach this point, it is smooth sailing. getting onto the span 801. here's let's go back to the desk. >> okay. thank you. ali. well happening now. emergency crews are allowing people stuck in big sur to leave part of highway one inch the area. washed out over the weekend. let's go to ktvu. james torres, who's live for us from the monterey coast, showing us what crews need to do in order to get those people home. james >> yeah, we're on the northern half of this latest closure along highway one. this is just

north of the rocky creek bridge. that's what helps connect carmel to big sur. right next to us. you see what looks like a convoy, essentially a line of people waiting to see if they can get back into this direction here. that's been kind of what caltrans and chp have, kind of situated twice a day at 8:00 am and 4:00 pm, they allow cars to go through for an hour at a time . it's 8 a.m. will be the first window. they're letting the folks who are on the south side of the of the closure here, those people who are essentially stuck, they'll let them get out first, and then once they clear that line of cars, they'll move through this line of cars here, which we see probably about 50 cars in this line right now. here's what happened. here's the problem. part of the highway here along highway one washed away over the weekend. nearly half of the southbound lane is now gone, and cars simply cannot pass through safely. but the problem is a much bigger deal for people who were south of that point, about 20 miles

further down, there is already construction for another part of the highway that washed off. so at one point there were about 1600 people stuck in that 20 mile stretch. one couple i spoke to tells me they came to this area camping over the weekend. they're coming here from ventura. they got separated from their campground and gear when they drove out for a hike and they couldn't leave when they planned to. last night. >> luckily we have flexible jobs, so we were able to. you know, just let them know that we kind of had a minor emergency situation. we're safe. but, yeah, we're able to take the time. >> not the worst place to be stuck. >> no, we did say that. and we're very lucky that we could get all of our stuff back and that we're happy and healthy and safe. >> so crews are organizing those convoys to get people home again at 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. those are the two windows where the roads will open for about an hour. and anyone who works, lives or just needs to get home can do that in

that time. in the meantime, big sur tourist officials are telling all of us to stay away from big sur until notice. it is not open for the public. right now, several state parks in the area are entirely closed, and at this point there is still no telling how soon highway one will reopen. we're live this morning on the monterey coast. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right. thank you james. well, san jose police are investigating a crash that led to the death of a pedestrian. it happened last night at about 730. this was on the 500 block of saratoga avenue, just outside one of the campuses of the harker private school. authorities say a man was walking down the street when he was hit by a car. police say he suffered major injuries and died at the scene. saratoga avenue was closed in both directions near moorpark avenue. so far, police have not identified the pedestrian or said what happened to the driver of the car, but this is san jose's seventh pedestrian death so far this year, putting the city on track

to surpass last year's total of 26 pedestrian deaths. >> our time now is 805, we're hearing from an east bay clothing designer whose business was ransacked on easter sunday. surveillance video shows the thieves breaking into taylor j. collection store and stealing purses and clothes, many of which were handed signed by the owner. the thief came back a second time, stealing suitcases and a cash register system. >> i just felt violated. it was just traumatic. like it's already been really hard just being a business owner in oakland, having, like, physical locations. and so just knowing that someone came into a space that we pay for, that we put all our energy or time and money and life into. it just felt terrible . >> the owner of taylor j. estimates at least $20,000 in damages and property losses. other businesses on the same block have been hit as well, including two different bakeries. a stabbing victim is expected to recover and a suspect now in custody following an attack sunday morning. san francisco police were called to ocean and lee avenues at 9:00

yesterday morning near city college. video from citizen app shows the scene where the man was stabbed, the suspect arrested. but it's still unclear what led to the attack. >> oakland mayor sheng tao is once again talking about changing the city charter to ban the police commission from taking part in the next search for a police chief, according to the east bay times. mayor tao's latest comments say only the mayor and the city administrator should be hiring the police chief. right now. under oakland city charter, the mayor selects the police chief from a list provided by the police commission. but mayor tao argues that process is not effective. a change would require a new ballot initiative. oakland went more than a year without a permanent police chief until late last month, when floyd mitchell was named by the mayor as the new chief. when the city of oakland reportedly plans to offer a five year lease extension to the a's at the coliseum. espn reports that the deal would give the a's a temporary home until its new

stadium in las vegas is built. as part of that new deal, the a's would have to pay more than $19 million a year over five years, and that's for a total of $97 million. keep in mind that reports show that right now they pay just 1.25 million a year. the a's current. excuse me. lease at the coliseum expires at the end of the season. the two sides will meet on tuesday to talk about the proposed contract. excuse me. andre, i'm gonna send it to you. >> i'll take it from here or move to this story now. despite a few sunday showers, for the most part, the weather cooperates for the thousands of people who showed up for a special easter celebration in san francisco, the sisters of perpetual indulgence hosted their 45th annual easter in the park event yesterday. it started back in 1979, when there were only four members, and now there are thousands of members in the organization. on march 31st is also the transgender day of visibility. sisters came from around the world to celebrate in their founding city.

>> the sisters are a wonderful reflection of our community. so we are the l, the g, the b, the t, the q, the i and the a of our community. what a better way to give them visibility than to throw some glitter and rhinestones on each other and prance around the park on easter sunday. >> we all come together in the spirit of togetherness and joy, to spread that joy and give it to other people, and that just recharges the battery. the organization says it devoted or it is devoted to community service and outreach. >> there was an easter egg hunt and other activities for people of all ages. >> time now is 808. let's get you caught up on what's going on on the roadways out there. overall, it's a pretty decent commute for a monday, maybe because this is the day after a easter sunday holiday for a lot of folks and spring break for a lot of people. south bay drive looks pretty good. a couple of incidents of a some reports of fires, but those are small grass fires off the road, off the freeway, not affecting traffic.

here's a live view of 101 in san jose. no problems or slow traffic there to tell you about san mateo bridge. things moving along nicely, getting over to the peninsula and here's a live look at highway four westbound at bay point. a lot more empty than it was just about an hour ago, so we'll continue to keep an eye on that. but no major issues to tell you about at this 8:00 hour. let's go back to the desk. >> kelly. thank you. today you could become a millionaire or a billionaire, rather. and that is no april fool's joke. it is april 1st, after all. but the jackpot for tonight's powerball lottery drawing estimated $975 million. and it would be the game's fifth largest jackpot ever. and so far it's the biggest jackpot this year. back on new year's day, someone in michigan won $842.5 million. and just last week, a mega millions ticket sold worth $1.3 billion. that happened in new jersey. we interviewed several first time lotto players in the bay area, including a young woman who can

now legally buy a lottery ticket because she just turned 18. >> it's exciting. it's different. i haven't i've never done something like that before. so it's kind of fun. >> you made me play, you know, because i mean, i don't run with luck. so i mean, like you said, it's $1 billion. so i mean, it's worth a shot. >> sure is worth a shot. i'll take several big, right? several big lottery tickets have been sold at ernie's liquor store in san jose. so that's where you got to go. claudine a group of bank workers won half $1 billion with a mega millions ticket back in 2018. remember that one? oh, i said, i said we got to do a lotto ticket here. when that came out. i remember that time. all right. we move to this story. now that we're going to be covering after the break here. tragedy in truckee. investigators giving new information about a plane that went down over the weekend and how the passengers had ties to the bay area and carpool lanes in california, soon to be exclusive for carpoolers. >> we're going to talk about the changes ahead for clean air ve cl

truckee. the couple worked for the tech investment firm upwest, which helps israeli startups. the huskies were the only people on board the plane that was flying from colorado to northern california when it went down saturday night during a moderate snowfall. >> it's a big loss for us, our community in the silicon valley, and it's a big shoes to fill up. i hope that all of us will keep on supporting, the next generation of founders like he did of west posted a statement on social media describing the couple as having big hearts, touching the lives of everyone they met and were a significant force in the company. >> the couple had three sons, both the ntsb and faa are investigating this crash. >> carpool lanes in california will soon be reserved just for carpools. now, right now, these carpool lanes do allow cars with two or more people and also allow cars with those maroon, green, and yellow stickers. those are decals for clean air vehicles. california started allowing clean air vehicles to

use carpool lanes back in 1999, but the dmv says starting in 2025, they will no longer be allowed and this comes after governor newsom signed an executive order back in 2020 requiring all new cars and passenger trucks sold in the state to be zero emission vehicles. and that's by 2035. happening today, city leaders in palo alto will decide whether to get rid of parking spaces along el camino real to make room for bike lanes, caltrans is going to be repaving el camino and has proposed adding those bike lanes along the road through palo alto, the agency says. the changes would make the road safer, but the city council does have to sign off on the plan to remove parking, even though caltrans does have the authority over el camino, which is a state highway. >> all right. coming up on 816, right now in the east bay, some sidewalks and driveways are set to be temporarily closed this month. look at these google street view images here. the construction will take place along san pablo avenue between ashby avenue in berkeley and brighton avenue in albany. only

sidewalks and driveways not in compliance with the americans with disabilities act will be worked on, caltrans says. the update is to make it easier for people with disabilities to navigate the area. the closure will last until spring of next year. a warning for us all avoid all beaches in l.a. county because of high levels of bacteria. the warning by the department of public health will continue through wednesday morning, but say it could be extended if the rain worsens. officials say the rain causes bacteria and debris from streets and mountain areas to flow into the ocean and contaminate the waters. >> all right. time now. 816 traffic was looking a little bit better for folks, and ali was watching it earlier. how are we looking now? >> it's looking pretty good. just about everywhere except in a marin county. and that's where we're going to start this time around. we mentioned about a half hour ago that crash on southbound 101, just north of tamalpais drive. we now have an update that it is blocking the far right lane. so that's leading to a lot of slow traffic

. as you make your way south on 101 towards larkspur. so keep that in mind. let's take a look at some of the other live pictures we have this morning. things have cleared out at the richmond-san rafael bridge toll plaza. last time we checked, it was bumper to bumper and now you can see the drive getting a little bit better on that east shore freeway as well. a 21 minutes to get from the carquinez bridge to macarthur maze. bay bridge toll plaza has been light for the last hour or so. 817 let's check in with steve paulson. you can see a little bit of a breeze, a light breeze in that traffic camera there with the spider web moving around a little offshore breeze out there. >> ali. that is true mainly in the hills, but we'll have a slight offshore. take a look at the weekend snow for the mounds, which was really, really good for march here. palisades picked up 13ft of snow in march. tahoe donner over the weekend 21in burrill 15. north star had 20, mount rose 25. i think they were the leader of the pack there. heavenly 14 and kirkwood picked up 16in of new snow rainfall. we thought santa cruz mountains

might take the brunt or the most and they did. ben lowman 209 boulder creek, 207 morgan hill with thunderstorms picked up just shy of two inches of rain, and monte doon, 1.86. i know fairfax in marin county had an inch and three quarters as well. our powerhouse low is now taking the turn. it's into arizona. take a look over there it is. so that'll be quite active. arizona. and also into new mexico for the 1st of april for sure. for us though, we get that offshore breeze. you can see the clouds. look at the thunderstorm activity yesterday afternoon evening mainly east and south that is pushed out of the area. and with the sunshine, high pressure building in and the offshore breeze temps up santa rosa, walnut creek, palo alto, san jose, we'll go 74, 72, 72 and 7240s, 50s on the 10th petaluma 56, napa airport 59. east northeast breeze that will do it. and vacaville 58. so for some it's already warming up pretty rapidly here. 20 in the mountains 42 finally, arcata they're down to 39 and then 5456 la and san diego. rain moves out. showers thunderstorms. now the responsibility of those in

arizona. sunny, breezy and warmer for us. and tomorrow looks even warmer as the high builds in for two days. and then here comes another unseasonably cold system dropping in late wednesday thursday into friday for another round of below normal temps. looks like some rain, wind and more sierra snow. probably taking us into early monday as the way it looks today though. and tomorrow sunshine and warmer temps. in fact, we'll go 70s for many. maybe just a smidge warmer tomorrow you guys. >> steve thank you. backlash from angry fans forcing the giants to find a new home for thousands of fan memorial tiles. those tiles around oracle park were bought by fans to honor loved ones, but the tiles were dug up in 2020 when construction of the mission rock development began. the giants emailed tile owners last week saying those tiles would be replaced by video messages shown at a digital kiosk. fans let the team know. >> it was a terrible idea and we were hoping to take our son or nephew and niece to the tiles

away to honor his memory and really pass down the fandom to the next generation, redo the tiles, reincorporate them. >> maybe they're a walkway or a pathway of some sort within the new park. >> a new permanent location has not been announced yet, but the team issued this statement, quote, we heard from our passionate and loyal fans and we will not be moving forward with the kiosk. we will explore multiple options that will work in the new park to showcase the tile messages. >> well, record breaking gold prices. we'll tell you what's sending those prices soaring. >> and if right after you eat a meal, you head right back to your refrigerator or pantry. it may not be because you have a big appetite or that you're greedy. what psychologists say about the science of post-meal cravings

says that it can all take a tremendous toll on an employees health. researchers at a sleep clinic in tampa, florida, studied hundreds of employees who normally work from 11:00 at night until 7:00 in the morning, and they found that those overnight workers typically fall way short of that eight hours of sleep that they say is needed to stay healthy. >> and we have found that shift workers are more susceptible to

having increased inflammation in their body, and that inflammation can be, a risk factor for developing things like metabolic syndrome and obesity and heart disease. breast cancer risks and cancer risks are higher in shift workers. >> medical experts are urging people who work overnight to try to develop a consistent sleep pattern, if at all possible, and they recommend taking daytime naps whenever they can. >> there's a new study suggesting that a circuit in the brain of some people may make them crave food, even when they're not hungry. researchers at ucla found that during experiments with mice, when a certain circuit in the brain was stimulated, the mice would start looking for food even if they had just eaten, and the mice would choose fatty comfort foods like chocolate instead of healthier foods like vegetables. the researchers say if these same findings can be confirmed

in people, perhaps new treatments could be developed for eating disorders. scientists have found chemicals in many common household items could be damaging our brains. a medical research team from cleveland has released the results of a major new study. it found chemicals that are in many household cleaners and beauty products could be linked to degenerative brain diseases like multiple sclerosis and autism. the researchers are now working on guidelines to help determine what level of exposure to these products would be safe for most consumers. >> well, with bay area's rainy season nearing an end, allergy season is in full swing. allergists say rain typically washes away the pollen, so when it stops, more people call their doctors with allergy symptoms. those symptoms include itchy and watery eyes, a stuffy or runny nose, sneezing, and congestion. according to the american. academy of allergy, asthma and immunology, seasonal allergies affect 10 to 30% of the global population. >> a 26 now, are we too quick to

are getting a raise, they're going to get paid $20 an hour. we'll tell you how this change, though, could affect your next meal and work crews in baltimore are focused on opening an alternate channel near where the bridge collapsed to reopen in portland shipping routes. we have the updates from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two and good morning to you. >> welcome back to mornings on two. on this april 1st i'm claudine wong i'm andre senior. >> thank you so much for joining us this morning. if you're out this weekend it was beautiful. i was from san francisco all the way to brentwood and the weather was fantastic. so let's check in with steve paulson to see if that will continue. >> do you have to update your passport to go from the city to brentwood? >> yeah, it was it was, it was, it was i was all over the place a tour. there you go a tour, all right. we do have clear skies. one nice thing after the rain. good visibility, good air quality. and that's exactly what we have here. a little chill this morning, but now we're seeing 40s and 50s. the city hit

49 this morning. what's the normal low on april 1st, 49. see how we do it there and then 40s and 50s. now for others everything's set offshore. breeze means let the sunshine in. and that's what we're doing today. not only today, but also tomorrow. and we're not fooling this time around. looks good. above average temps for two days. and then guess what? they go way back down into the week. but today and tomorrow look good. all right alex here. been kind of busy 830 almost on a monday. and she tells us what it's been busy here and there. >> and then things calm down. and then one little problem will pop back up again just when we think everything is all in the clear. so that's the situation when we. this crash is so new, we don't even have a crash icon for it just yet. but this is 101 northbound 101 just south of old middlefield way off ramp that is in the redwood city area and this i mentioned it because there's a couple vehicles involved, and two lanes of northbound 101 are blocked. this is in the redwood city area. no crash icon yet, but it's, right in this general area here. so

keep an eye out for that. and be aware that when you make your way over the san mateo bridge, you might encounter some slow traffic because of that crash blocking two lanes in the northbound direction of 101. here's a live look at 280 in san jose. this has been relatively problem free. the south bay overall has been a pretty good commute. this morning. and 880 in oakland past the coliseum. no problems there either. 831 let's go back to the desk. >> haley. thank you. starting today, most fast food workers in california will be paid a minimum wage of $20 an hour. ktvu amanda canton is here to tell us the impacts that some say the new minimum wage could have. amanda >> yeah, well, that's a $4 an hour increase. so going up from $16 an hour to 20. and that is for anyone who works at a fast food restaurant that has multiple chains. so it has to have 60 locations and it has to have limited table service. so of course, some place like mcdonald's, that includes all of the workers here at mcdonald's.

now, this will give california fast food workers one of the highest minimum wages in the country, the state's minimum wage for all other workers is $15.50 an hour. labor unions and the fast food industry have been fighting over wages for years before lawmakers passed this law last year, saying that many of the more than 500,000 fast food workers in the state they aren't teens earning extra spending money. they're adults. depending on that money to support their families and some of the customers stopping at mcdonald's for breakfast this morning say they support this increase. >> i think that's great news. i think that's a long time coming. you know, it's hard hard to live out here with the wages that we currently have. so you know, i think it's great for them. it's great. you know all around i think it's about time that like people start getting paid more, obviously mcdonald's is always profiting, but its workers aren't always making as much as they should be compared to the

corporation. so i think it's a good thing. >> so what does this mean for the customer? well, some major chains like mcdonald's, chipotle, starbucks, jack in the box and shake shack, they say that they will have to raise prices, layoffs are also a concern, and workers could get fewer hours because of this. but the customers that i spoke to this morning say that they think places like mcdonald's, these big corporations, they have enough money, they have enough profit that they should be able. >> all right. obviously we're having some issues here with amanda's live shot. we'll check in with her in our next hour of news. meantime, this story now, later today, rideshare drivers in san francisco, they plan to rally, demanding fair treatment and better pay drivers from uber and lyft will stage several events about critical issues impacting their work. the rally will go from uber headquarters to lyft headquarters, both of which are located in san francisco. some of the issues they plan to address are low pay on fair deactivations, high company fees and safety risks.

drivers will also raise concerns about the impact of autonomous vehicles to the industry. >> in baltimore, crews are working to establish an alternate channel around the site of that collapsed bridge in order to allow shipping traffic to resume at the port. demolition crews are cutting through pieces of that mangled metal, with the goal of clearing a navigational channel. >> the biden administration approved $60 million in emergency relief, but that's only the beginning. transportation secretary pete buttigieg says he hopes congress can step in and release more funds. >> if you remember the 2007 bridge collapse in minnesota, ultimately about $260 million put together, including funds that were put through congress on a bipartisan basis. and i hope and expect this to will be a bipartisan priority. >> it's not clear how long it might take to establish the alternate channel. >> well, the collapse of the bridge in baltimore is bringing attention to other bridges around the country. the national transportation safety board says the francis scott key bridge was in satisfactory condition before

it was hit by the cargo ship. but data from the federal government reveals more than 42,000 bridges across the u.s. are in poor condition. >> 1 in 3 bridges across the united states need some sort of repair or reconstruction work because of the amount of money needed to repair a bridge. >> some older bridges do remain closed, and that impacts surrounding communities by throwing off supply chain routes for trucks and impacting emergency vehicle response times. >> at 835, a cardiologist from minnesota trying to extend the lives of first responders. new studies show firefighters are three times more likely to suffer a heart attack than those in the general workforce. police officers experienced their first heart attack nearly 20 years earlier than the general population. the cardiologist says nutrition is one of the keys to a healthy and long life. >> you think that, you know, fire fighters, the you know they die because of smoke inhalation or injury on the job and that does happen. >> but the number one reason five firefighters die is heart disease.

>> they drop dead of heart attacks. >> you may not have the time to sit there and eat a well-balanced meal and go to a microwave and warm up your leftover chicken. you know that you made and counted your calories. you may just have to go through a drive through, go to a gas station, shove a snickers in your mouth, and go to the next call. >> the cardiologist is working with law enforcement agencies nationwide to improve their diets. she says. in just a month, picking the right foods can significantly improve cholesterol levels. >> a psychiatrist says that once we use the word toxic to describe someone, there is no going back. according to the wall street journal, the word leaves no room for either nuance nor context. and they say this approach holds us back from understanding other people, and it does provide an excuse to distance ourselves from them. so what is the suggested remedy? well, experts say search for the information that contradicts a knee jerk response to labeling someone as toxic and add that while it is naive to believe that everyone's intentions are

noble, it might be worth at least considering the why behind their actions. 837 skiers and snowboarders enjoyed a lot of new snow in the sierra over the easter holiday weekend. a fresh layer of snow now covers the lake tahoe area, and there are reports of between 12 and 25in fell over the weekend, and this late surge of winter like weather will push resorts to stay open past their expected season. >> they're saying they're going to go all the way through april through the 28th. the other resorts looking at palisades, they're looking at that model of maybe pushing a little bit longer. we'll wait for about a week to see what they see. with throughput, skiers and riders, mammoth will always push a little bit longer. they just have that base out of the southern california area to do it well, experts say. >> during the next week, another foot of snow may be enough to allow those resorts to stay open even longer. and i'm here for it. i love it, someone who's watching all of that steve paulson, he's always kind of

keeping an eye on things. >> i would think another foot this weekend was likely. >> yeah, i got to get up there. there you go. i got to get up there. thank you. >> steve. my pleasure, we do have totals from the weekend, friday to sunday. and remember, december. january. not so kind. february was nice. march was fantastic. 13ft fell at palisades for the month. tahoe, donner 21in. new north star 20 heavenly 14. bear valley 14. so where does that put the season totals now? actually pretty close to average, if not a little above sugar bowls, a little above now 461 for the season. boreal 404 over 400. palisades 381 kirkwood over 350. homewood 344. north star 332. bear valley 309 and heavenly at 224. rainfall well, we thought santa cruz mountains might be the leader based on everything we saw friday. and that's exactly what happened. ben loman, 2.09, boulder creek 207. on rainfall morgan hill with thunderstorms just shy of two and bonnie doon with 1.86. san anselmo had good rain, san rafael pretty good. vallejo and redwood city both picked up a

tenths at los gatos, clear lake and half moon bay all three with three quarters of an inch. our system is long gone. it is pushed out offshore breeze thunderstorm activity yesterday afternoon and evening has now pushed southern california, now into arizona. you can see some of that wild morning in arizona. that's for sure. pretty good rain, thunderstorms and snow. some of the higher elevations. but for us it's on a warmer forecast today and tomorrow went 74 santa rosa, walnut creek, palo alto and san jose. a lovely 7240s 50s on the temps here. we had a couple of low 40s for a while now. we're starting to bounce off of those, but 21 truckee 27. south lake tahoe, 50, in santa barbara. but look at 50 in las vegas 49. phoenix 37. prescott that's called rain moves out for us. showers. thunderstorms have now pushed into arizona in the four corners. that will be a big weather maker as it moves across the country. sunny, breezy and warmer we get today and tomorrow to be sunny side up and warmer, but by wednesday, here comes another low. starting to move in and by thursday looks like a

rain day and then turning much colder and windy. i know the giants home opener is this friday and, hopefully they always play, even if it rains, almost always play. but i would i would expect a bundle up. it does look windy and cool. well hopefully we'll get the rain out of there. but it looks like some on friday. today though, sunny and warmer, we'll take that into tomorrow as well then. big changes by wednesday. today those 70s maybe some 76 tomorrow or something along that nature. and then cooler wednesday, much cooler thursday and friday. >> okay. thank you steve. well, it was a terrifying moment all caught on camera. when you join us on the nine, we'll show you how a man narrowly escapes a saw blade that was barreling towards him in oregon. >> wow. all right. openai venturing into voice assistance with technology capable of cloning voices. but the company decided not to release it to the public just yet. we'll tell you about

250 to 500 times more storage than the leading web mail services by yahoo and microsoft. because it was announced on april fools day in 2004, some people thought it was a joke, but one associated press writer knew it wasn't because he had

been invited to google's headquarters in mountain view to see something that the company promised would be worth the trip . >> i was ushered through the corridors into a small office where google co-founder larry page was sitting with an impish grin on his face and sitting in front of a laptop computer, and he said he wanted to show me something, and he did a demo for me of gmail, and he just kind of smiled and said, i think people are really going to like this. >> gmail now has an estimated 1.8 billion active accounts, and i remember when this came out, you had to be invited back then and then in 2005, i finally got accepted because i put my name in and i still have the original email. when i first got gmail back from 2005. wow, i still have it. i'm reading it right here and i remember the advertisement was never have to delete an email again. that was the selling point. i was like, oh, that was great. no, that's no longer true. >> i'm not going to admit that i still have a hotmail. i'm not going to do that. >> that's what i that's what i

had. yeah. all right. let's move to this. more safety concerns i admit that i don't delete my emails. >> yes, i should i may or may not have 707,347 unread emails. >> oh, that's that's nothing. >> it's nothing. right >> all right. we're safety concerns about hyundai and kia cars and an important recall. >> and united airlines we're talking about this surprising note. it sent to pilots pam of course here with dollars and cents. >> moving on from email. all right. the pilots union reports united airlines pilots may be offered unpaid time off in may, possibly all summer because of the problems at boeing and the delay in delivering planes. we'll keep on top of that. henrik lundqvist, former goalie with the new york rangers, joined ronald mcdonald house during the opening bell this morning to celebrate its 30th annual skate with the greats fundraiser, ronald mcdonald house. i think some of the families there who have benefited from them, they help families with sick children, often with housing near treatment centers, so they're doing a lot of good work taking a live look at the numbers down across the board on this first day of the second quarter. but

it's a very good first quarter. but the dow jones down a little more than a half of a percent, the s&p 500 down about a third of a percent right now. the nasdaq down slightly as well. the dow jones has been flirting with that 40,000 level though a bit chatgpt introduced its new voice cloning assistant, but is hesitant to share its technology with the public due to safety concerns. openai says it can recreate a person's voice with just 15 seconds of recording of that person talking. the company says it plans to preview it with early testers, but won't release the technology yet because of the dangers of misuse, especially during an election year. the tsa is adding eight new international airlines to its precheck program. the new airlines include air premia, bahamas air, bermuda air, and new pacific airlines. the program lets travelers get through screening quickly, often allows them to keep on their shoes and their jackets. customers pay a fee to fill out an application and compete,

complete and interview for a five year pass and safety officials are working with kia and hyundai to speed repairs on nearly 3.5 million cars being recalled. the automakers first announced the recall last september. they advised cars be parked outside and away from buildings because of a potential fire hazard, even when the engine is off. six months later, the national highway traffic safety administration says most of the recalled vehicles have not been fixed and are still being driven. the automakers blame the delays on the difficulties of finding enough parts. the fires happen when the brake fluid leaks onto the circuit boards, triggering an electrical short. but just so you know, for any recall of any car you can typically go to the automaker's website, type in your vin number to see if your car is affected. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents. >> all right, pam, thank you so much. time now is 848. ali rasmus in the traffic center in for sal with a final check of the roads. ali. >> final check. looks pretty good for the end of this 8:00 hour. just ten minutes before

9:00. and we'll show you the maps that crash we mentioned last time. marin county, southbound 101 at tamalpais. now completely cleared in the backup. gone. that is good news in the south bay. still have that problem at old middlefield road in 101. that's in the clearing stages. the earlier crash on northbound 680 at, fremont, actually, 880 at fremont street. that's also cleared as well. those traffic icons are still lingering there, your east contra costa county commute looks good overall as well. things have really opened up after the morning rush. so now you're taking a look at the bay bridge toll plaza where there's barely anyone on the road. we'll take you no time at all to get onto the span. and i think i also have the golden gate bridge so we can end with this beautiful springtime monday morning shot of the golden gate bridge. a little bit of that offshore breeze, steve paulson that we can see with that flag in the right hand of the screen. so enjoy the nice day out there today while it lasts today and tomorrow, today and tomorrow

then changes wednesday. >> ali thank you. we do have a slight offshore breeze. more in the hills anywhere else but our system from on friday came right to the bay area, went down the coast, took the turn and now it's into arizona heading into the four corners. that'll be a big weather maker as it moves across into new mexico. but the active days in arizona here, rain moves out. thundershowers, thunderstorms, whatever. we had some yesterday afternoon evening, especially east and south. not anymore. sunny, breezy and warmer for us today and also tomorrow as the high winds out. but as in past years when the high would stick around for ten days or 21 days, not this time it's only sticking around for two. another system cold one drops in. looks like rain returns on thursday, then a cold, brisk and kind of showery day on friday as the way it looks right now with more snow up in the mountains. but next couple of days though, it's all about sunshine and warmer temps. in fact, i think tomorrow will be the warmest day today though. 70s for many, maybe some more mid 70s tomorrow there. andre >> all right steve thank you so much. the golden state warriors hosting the dallas mavericks tomorrow night in a battle of
