temperatures in 50's. sun coming up at 6:23. >> good morning and happy easter. i'm john alston. a debate over judgment day is playing out on bay area billboards. first signs were posted by evangelicals followed by a sarcastic response by a group of atheists. nick smith reports. >> these messages were not sent from up above but rather from a nonprofit evangelical group. called family radio based in oak land. according to the group's interpretation of the bible, may 21st will be the day of rapture, when its believers say they will be taken up to heaven. >> we are commanded by god in ezekiel 33 to blow the trumpets. and that's exactly what's taking place right now. >> american atheists wasted no time posting billboards of their own. in text large enough to read from i-80 heading east declaring, you know it's nonsense. i spoke with the president of the american atheists, david silverman by phone. >> we wanted to put right in their face. they are talking nonsense. this is how religion hurts people.

this is one of the many ways religion hurts people. our hope is people who are not being suckered in by this rapture will learn from the people who are. >> michael garcia says family radio reaches listeners from around the globe in several languages. their countdown, clear and only 28 days remain. >> there have been thousands of rapture predictions over the past 2,000 years. it's going to happen any day now and they've all been scams and they've all been false and they've all been lies. >> i was a skeptic as well but when you begin to search out the timeline and the bible and the patriarchs and, you know, all the dates that god has given us. now we have absolutely proofs from the bible that 2011, may 21 is that day. >> family radio says that dozens of their supporters have traveled across the country to spread their word of warning. >> the day is still here while salvation is still possible because god will close the door

on may 21. >> anti-rapture signs like the one behind me are also up in fort lauderdale and houston. the american atheists will hold their celebration and regional meetings in oakland on may 21st and 22nd calling it the rapture that wasn't. in san francisco, nick smith, abc 7 news. >> a new "los angeles times" poll is showing a significant shift in the attitude californians have about using higher taxes to balance the budget. 60% of those surveyed including majorities of both democrats and republicans say they supported an election to extend a temporary tax hike. only 33% back the republican plan of balancing the budget by cutting state services. the governor had asked for a special election to be held in june but republicans refused to go along with it. the l.a. times usc poll found 44% of californians approve of the job brown is doing as governor. in st. louis, airline traffic is expected to resume today following friday's powerful

tornado. it hit the city's main airport and security cameras caught the exact moment it blew through the terminal. abc 7's alan wong reports. >> airport security cameras show what it was like inside the moment the tornado struck. right now, everything appears normal and then things go dark. debris starts swirling. tsa officers run for cover. another angle in front of a food stand. watch as this guy on a cell phone looks behind him and sees things are not normal. seconds later, it appears this whole concourse is swept up by the powerful winds. >> the aftermath, a scene of broken windows and an airport that needs to quickly set down. it saw a plane forced to blow 20 meet from the gate. >> lights were out, there was glass everywhere. there was blood everywhere from where people had been cut.

>> the tornado ripped through nine separate communities destroying dozens of homes but amid all the devastation, mostly just minor injuries. authorities credit that to people heeding the warnings. >> and that was not only because we had a 34 minute lead time from the national weather service but our media partners carried that warning immediately to the public and thirdly, that the public did what we have told them to do. >> still, with so many dislodged from their homes, the red cross opened several shelters. back at the airport, crews began the tedious process of boarding up windows. any glass that had a crack was taken down. airport officials say most operations will resume when the power is restored. >> oakland city leaders have unveiled a new surveillance system at lincoln square center. the cameras were installed inside and outside of the center after concerns about a reduction

in police patrols. the success of a similar surveillance system in chinatown encouraged members of the asian advisory committee on crime to install cameras at lincoln center. at least 2,000 visitors are at the center every day and those visitors should be protected. >> it's not easy to get, you know, police to be patrolling in the needed time and area so we're hoping this camera system will be deterring crime. >> local members and members of the asian committee on crime paid for the surveillance camera system. crime statistics released by police show citizens in central oakland experience less overall crime in the first quarter of this year than last year. there were 144 fewer violent crimes which include assault, robbery, rape and shootings. property crimes were down by 175 cases as well as burglaries down by 109 cases. while the news is encouraging, there were two more murders and more vehicle thefts during that

period. in san carlos, outraged firefighters are opposing a plan to outsource their department. one plan would put the city's fire protection responsibilities in the hands of a private company. abc 7's lisa amin gulezian has more. >> firefighters are working overtime this weekend. >> we're looking for support from citizens like you. >> they're not fighting fires but they are fighting for what they think is best for this community now that san carlos needs a new funding partner. >> the city of san carlos is making an attempt to privatize the fire department. >> the city's consultants are making two recommendations. allow a private security company to run the department or team up with redwood city's fire department. several bay area cities opt to consolidate to save money. >> we do a lot of joint training with redwood city next door.

with redwood city next door.c we share a fire marshall. we work basically seamlessly with them. >> according to the mayor, both choices would retain the same staff, not close any fire stations and save more than a million dollars. but going private could save even more. >> we're not trying to throw people out but there needs to be a very different structure and a very different way to approach these services that allows san carlos to move forward fiscally. >> the way things have been going and the fact that the proposal is still on the table, yeah, i have concerns. >> the concern for many involves changing from a public agency to a privately operated one. >> a private company doesn't have the ability to have sworn officers, do not have the ability to prohibit a strike which we currently have. against the law to have strikes. >> residents are divided. >> worse comes to worse, it's ok to join with redwood city but not to private company. definitely not with private company. >> we should do whatever makes the citizens safe as possible.

>> the city council is expected to make a decision and vote on the matter monday night. in san carlos, lisa amin gulezian, abc 7 news. >> san jose congresswoman is demanding an investigation into the action of federal immigration officials claiming they lied when they said counties and states could opt out of a controversial immigration program. that program known as secure communities checks the immigration status of people arrested and booked into local jails. santa clara county and san francisco both tried to opt out of the program but she says she found the obama administration gave communities no choice but to participate. the department of homeland security says the program was never voluntary. >> coming up next more protesting in yemen even though country's president announced his intention to resign and more than 100,000 pilgrims and tourists gather at st. peter's

call or click today. >> welcome back. happy easter. a little bit damp out there. >> yes. and the bunny and the egg hunts although we are looking at a weather pattern change in a couple of days but not today.f sfo this morning temperatures in the 50's with a little bit of light rain falling there and in the east bay this morning, we're looking at i-80 looking north where there's clouds and fog and mist and drizzle to accompany some of the poor visibility out there. we are looking at temperatures in the 50's this morning, 56 in fremont. good morning mountainview. 58 for you. it's 54 in napa with mid 50's throughout redwood city and half moon bay so with all the cloudiness, pretty mild and a little muggy out there mist and drizzle with a slight chance of showers through not only this morning but afternoon hours. a couple of weather systems

continue to move through the bay area. the second one moving in tomorrow could drop anywhere from 1/4 inch in the north bay valleys. this one today less than 1/10th of an inch. not a lot of moisture associated with it but just enough to be sort of a nuisance out there for sure. usually a ridge of high pressure protecting us but not the case as another weak frontal band continues to barrel in across the west coast so live doppler 7 h.d. shows the cloudiness or the rain mainly to the north because this rain is associated with low level moisture. it's falling well beneath the radar beam so we're looking at that moisture with us throughout the morning hours. as the ceilings begin to lift a little bit this afternoon although we still run the risk of a shower, we should have a few breaks out there. here's the timeline throughout the rest of the day today. notice the green representing the spotty shower activity throughout the morning hours. 8:00, we have some rain in the north bay, the peninsula and then through the afternoon, a the lot of cloud cover and through the evening hours, the

threat of showers. here comes the next system. that's going to bring more widespread precipitation for the monday morning commute, notice right here we've got the green and in fact a little shade of darker green through sonoma county. 7:00 tomorrow and then by 10:00 in the afternoon lighter returns but by the afternoon, looking at the high pressure ridge off the coast beginning to head our way into tuesday and wednesday. across the state it's been cool everywhere with the clouds from north to south. we're looking at cloudy skies in los angeles. 67 there. windy and 80 in palm springs. for palm spring, that's not too hot for the end of april. upper 50's half moon bay and pacifica. san francisco, yes cooler than average with the cloud cover, some mist and drizzle with the low 60's there. 61 in petaluma. the shower activity, chance of it throughout the day today. but we'll see a mostly cloudy

sky. maybe a few peeks of sun. 61 hercules. out over the hills, concord at 64. danville 64 and down by the monterey bay we got light rain right now. temperatures later on this afternoon will just be in the low 60's. here's the accuweather seven day forecast, weak system today and a little stronger system tomorrow, about a quarter of an inch so you think when are we going to be through with this? well, tuesday and wednesday we're looking a little dryer and temperatures should be rebounding to averages which should be in the low to mid 70's so a couple more systems to go. >> few more days. thanks, lisa. well dan harris joins us now from new york to tell us what's coming up at 7 clock alcoholic:00 on "good morning america." things slowly creeping back to normal in st. louis. >> slowly but it's really a fascinating story there, john. while take you inside the aftermath of the most powerful tornadoes to hit that city in over 40 years. we've got a first look inside the city's airports as the twister hit tearing off the roof

of one of the terminals there. really interesting stuff. and also coming up, we'll take a look at the people who are profitting while the rest of us shell out so much extra cash for gas these days. we've got the numbers that will surprise and anger a lot of people and then donald trump taking another big step towards running for president. he is heading to new hampshire today. but here's an interesting question if the donald is really so interested in politics, why has he voted so infrequently in recent years? we're going to get into that. and our very own beonico rodriga just landed across the pond. let's check in with her quickly. >> thanks, dan. as you can see, it's a beautiful day here in london. the whole city is gearing up for the biggest wedding in decades. it's now just five days away. and we're going to have all of the details on everything from the massive security here to which of the guests are getting the best seats at the ceremony. it's not who you think. what does prince harry have planned for all the hard

from neutrogena®. >> if you're looking for work, there's encouraging development. top silicon valley executives are telling us the job picture is improving which means a lot of bay area companies will be hiring in the next few months. david louie explains what's driving that turn around. >> it's a big change from six months ago.

instead of layoffs, companies are starting to hire again. engineering tech got hired after two years of doing contract work without benefits. >> you can see there's more opportunities if you're looking at the paper and looking at the web for job sites that people are starting to hire more. >> a survey of 175 silicon valley ceo's found that over half of them plan to hire this year. doctors supply ships for the fast growing wireless and smart phone industry. so it's adding employees. >> silicon valley area is one of the two or three spots in the nation that has a good breadth of talent in that area. that's one of the reasons they wanted to have a good foothold here. >> they advised job seekers to act fast. >> get out and make sure i'm at the front of that new wave. i'd also make sure you're differentiated because this is a wave. this, too, will pass and they're going to be another tough cycle some day.

>> 100 construction workers are building a new facility for data centers in santa clara. they've gone from 1 to 38 employees in a single year with plans to triple that number in the next two years. clients need more servers to handle growth in on-line commerce. >> their data center growth needs have been growing at growth rates. >> there are still major stumbling blocks. the ceo says housing costs, the costs of employee recruitment and retention, business taxes and the state budget crisis could hurt silicon valley's future. while google may be grabbing the headlines with its goal to hire 3,000 people, it's companies like triquent and vantage that are making a difference here in the valley by hiring only 10, 20 or maybe 100 people. in san jose, david louie, abc 7 news. >> an institution as olds as apple pie is starting to vanish from the american landscape. we're talking about the mom and pop drugstores. they're being forced out ironically by the high cost of prescription drugs.

>> it's sad to be leaving. >> as jerry calendar's shirt says he may not be dead with but his drugstore is. they prided themselves on customer service for 54 years. bonnie has been a customer for a quarter of a century. >> just like an old friend coming here. and you can get advice here for anything and not treated like a machine or a number. >> earlier this month, its doors closed. the last independent pharmacy in belmont was gone. it went the way of many other mom and pop drugstores. california has lost about 700 of them in the last decade. calendar says insurance companies are doing them in. >> it's now at a point where sometimes we lose money on filling prescriptions. >> pharmacists say insurance companies have cut reimbursements even though drug costs have skyrocketed. >> pharmacy does not really have

a good way to negotiate with insurance companies so it's a take it or leave it kind of contract. >> paul owns ross valley pharmacy in miran county and the past president of the california pharmacists association. >> and what's happened is that we're dispensing too many prescriptions for $5 and it costs me $14.85 to fill a prescription. >> do the math. you can't make it at that rate. >> calendar's pharmacy was like many other independent drugstores. it had a limited inventory of greeting cards, gift items and knickknacks. but its mainstay was the pharmacy. the insurance reimbursement cuts hurt. so did another trend. >> many customers were sent to mail order by their insurance company. >> the big change like walgreens, even safeway became competitors. >> why would the chain stores survive? because they have many things out in front. they would like you to leave

their store with at least $50 less buying other stuff. >> all of that cut into his business. even his many long-time customers told us they had to buy their prescription drugs elsewhere. gwen says she goes to safeway. >> if you got them here, would your insurance have paid for them? >> not here, i don't have the insurance for here. >> by mail order through our drug plan with our health plan. >> calendar says even if he paid zero rent, he still would not be able to stay afloat. vic lee, abc 7 news. >> water officials plan to hold >> pg&e will be holding a community meeting to answer questions about pipeline testing occurring next month. it will check or replace 150 miles of pipeline with characteristics similar to the one that exploded in san bruno in september. the lines will be filled with water to check out how much pressure they can safely withstand. antioch and mountainview will be the first cities to be tested.

pg&e said residents have received letters about testing and they might smell gas in the area when the pipelines are emptied. >> water officials plan to hold a special meeting on wednesday when they're expected to raise water rates. the marin municipal water district is considering a fifth straight year of rate hikes. they won't be huge. average customer would see a $4 increase for each two month billing period starting in july. conservation has been good in marin but the cost to deliver the water has increased. the cost to deliver water today free. >> very drippy out there from our east bay camera. you'll notice the water on the lens looking out towards 80 this morning. so we have rain at sfo in the north bay, slick pavement. happy easter to you by the way. detail that easter forecast and a look at some warmer weather around the corner coming up. >> also ahead, the environmental upgrades that are coming to oakland's lake merritt, the oldest wildlife

[ mom ] can a little bowl of cereal change your life? i think it can. one of the challenges for kayla being gluten-free is actually finding choices the whole family will love. then we discovered chex cereals. five flavors of chex are gluten-free, including the honey nut flavor and that's amazing to a mom like me. as a parent you dot want to have to tell your kids "no" all the time. it's nice for me to be able to say "yes" to something th they want to eat. [ male announcer ] chex cereal. five flavors. gluten free.

switching to progressive could mean hundreds more in your wallet year after year. feed me! saving you money -- now, that's progressive. call or click today. >> better carry an umbrella if you want to keep your bonnet dry. >> yeah, for right now. we've got some rain coming down in the east bay but a live look outside in the mountains this morning, heavenly, you can see the clouds there. we're looking at 39 degrees in trucky. 41 in the tahoe valley airport and we've got pretty much everything going on. visibility less than a quarter mile at blue canyon at 38 degrees and we've got fog, drizzle, mist and the light rain. here's emeryville and you'll notice how wet it is out there from this vantage point so a

damp start to your easter with temperatures in the 50's right now so we will be looking at somewhat mild start because the numbers haven't dropped too much from last night. but we will also feel the humidity out there. and with all that moisture, boy, when are we going to dry out? a couple of days in fact, later on this afternoon doesn't look as wet. 54 in san francisco and 55 in oakland. 55 redwood city with numbers fairly uniform all throughout the bay area. so here are our highlights. cloudy this morning with local drizzle. some light rain. the showers possible throughout the day today. and a better chance tomorrow. the system tomorrow coming in in the morning and it's a little bit stronger so this one here although right now it looks like it's coming down pretty good in emeryville doesn't have that much moisture associated with it. you can see here from the satellite picture though the cloudiness associated with it and to the north it's raining in the mountains around mount shasta so we are looking at live doppler 7 h.d. and you're saying where is the rain?

it's falling underneath the radar beam so that low level moisture can't hold a lot of liquid precip so we're not going to see much more of it although the chance of showers continues throughout the day today as the flow will be moist from the west, that zonal flow. two more systems to go. here's the one today with about less than a 10th of an inch of rain around the bay area and then the one tomorrow less than a quarter of an inch. here's the time line throughout the rest of the day today. this morning, looking at the widespread shower activity becoming more widely scattered throughout the late morning hours and early afternoon. clouds around. few peeks of sun late in the day and then we'll look for the next system on its heels. so we are talking about a wet morning commute as soon as tomorrow at 6:00 7:00. the wet weather expanding across the bay area. even down through the south bay. making it as far south as santa cruz throughout the afternoon hours and then by the later afternoon, it continues to sink south and we should see high

pressure build in behind that for a drier tuesday. los angeles, 67. 64 in san diego. 80 but very windy conditions in palm springs. so back home 64 in sunnyvale with the cloudy skies. 62 san mateo. peninsula, boy it's going to be cool along the coast. 57 half moon bay. we're getting used to this trend, though. 57 in the sunset with the clouds around throughout san francisco. light rain in the north bay. 64 sonoma. not going to be an all day rain though and we'll see some cloudy skies. partly cloudy skies from time to time. 63 union city. 64 in danville. but overall we remain kind of stuck in this moist cool weather pattern through tomorrow. mid 60's around the monterey bay and in fact tomorrow the chance of rain even better so that morning commute is going to be sloppy, at least today not as many people, perhaps, out on the roads but more weather nice weather to enjoy come mid week with 70's back to normal.

>> a little bit of a payoff. >> yeah. >> thanks, lisa. major changes are coming in oakland and much is being done to return the lake to a more natural state. in the assignment 7 report, what's been done to improve the lake's link with the bay. >> lake merritt has been called the jewel of oak land. its 155 acres make up the nation's oldest wildlife refuge created by the state legislature in 1870 but the lake wasn't always a lake. >> it was originally a tidal swoon. >> joe peters with the city of oakland. >> it's always been here. it was broader than it is now. it had a ring of marsh and mud around it at low tide. it was connected to the bay through a relatively wide channel. >> that channel was once blocked. today, much of it has been filled in and a series of narrow culverts restricts the amount of water flowing in and out of the lake. >> this end of the lake has always been neglected. >> but thanks to community

advocates, voters and environmental groups, it is now getting attention. work is under way on the first of three segments that will widen the channel to link the lake to the san francisco bay. a 12-lane highway built in 1950 on the western side of the lake is the first to go. >> we are taking out the restrictive culverts and replacing them with a clear spanning bridge that will span over a 100 foot wide channel. >> replacing it will be a new six lane tree lined boulevard with taller bridges that will allow cars, bikes and people to cross. some wetlands will be restored and bay water filtered into the lake with the changing tides. more than doubling the tidal flow that goes in and out of lake merritt. the $35 million project is being funded by the state coastal conservancy, the federal government and local taxpayers. the measure passed in 2002. another $12 million will be spent to clear culverts at 10th street. work on that project could start by the end of the year.

>> at its worst, i think the lake was almost dead. >> sam is with the california state coastal conservancy. >> you don't have to change it much to make a big difference. >> he says the lake has struggled to survive for decades. a lack of oxygen made it difficult for life to flourish. in fact, fountains were put in to help aerate the lake because the summer months frequently turned it into a giant pool of stagnant water. >> the water quality will improve. there will be more oxygen in the water. there will be more fish. there will be more plants. it won't smell as bad in the summer. actually come up pretty good. >> the project is expected to wrap up in 2015. in oakland, cecelia vega, abc 7 news. >> when it's complete, you'll be able to canoe or kayak from the estuary to lake merritt unimpeded. a word of caution when it comes to your tax refund. 7 on your side helps a man whose money was trapped in limbo for three years.
