i don't have any major problems to talk about so far. we did have an issue here in the dublin area. westbound 580 connector to 680 was closed, initially they thought for about three hours this morning. they got it down to 30 minutes. they were doing repairs on an attenuator in the area. they got it wrapped up about 15 minutes ago. for a short time, we had a backup, but things have cleared out. mass transit off to a much better start than yesterday, too. we'll look at that coming up next. we continue tracking breaking news in san jose. san jose police have just confirmed they are indeed investigating a homicide in the area of story road and hopkins. also just a few moments ago, we learned from our crews the suspect still on the loose right now. i want to quickly show you these live images of what's happening out there. police have started to clear some of the scene already. you can see crime scene tape is

down. but there are still cones out there, still police presence. overnight, police surrounded an apartment complex and they are still gathering evidence in a strip mall near that intersection. you can see it here in that live picture. we're told initial calls to police came in at 9:30 last night. right now, very little information. tiffany wilson working the scene, we'll check in with her for the latest at 5:30. >> thank you. democratic leaders are hoping to convince congress to bring the d.r.e.a.m. act to a vote. this comes as many daca recipients are calling the trump administration's actions a nightmare. abc7 news reporter amy hollyfield joins us live in san francisco with the latest. amy. >> reporter: matt, expect to see a press conference first thing this morning led by house democratic leader nancy pelosi. they are going to demand that congress put things in place to protect daca recipients. that's going to take place in washington. but here in san francisco, the resistance is also under way. look at the protests that

happened yesterday. this formed in response to the president's decision to phase out protections for immigrants who came to the u.s. as children. they are known as d.r.e.a.m.ers. and there are many of them in the crowd that marched from the federal building to city hall. some of them were very emotional. >> this is my home. this is all i have ever known. and no somebody's trying to take me out of my home. i grew up here. >> those who are impacted by this are known as d.r.e.a.m.ers. many d.r.e.a.m.ers we talked to said they would rather stay here in the u.s. and be on the run than return to a country they don't know. that press conference starts in washington at 7:00 a.m. california time. democratic leaders will be calling on republicans to bring the d.r.e.a.m. act to the house and senate floors for a vote. the d.r.e.a.m. act would give those immigrants, those d.r.e.a.m.ers who came here as children legal status. reporting live in san franciso,

amy hollyfield, abc7 news. >> thanks. if you have the abc7 news app, you would have been among the first to know about the trump administration's decision on daca. we sent this breaking news alert as the decision was being handed down. if you don't have the app, download it now and don't forget to enable the push alerts. >> all right, hey guys. i'm working on show youiing you images. these are live pictures of hurricane irma as it bears down on the caribbean. this is st. bart's where intense rain and wind have come down all night long, almost looks like there's something wrong with our camera, but it's not. it's all of that rain slamming into the camera lens. hurricane irma, the most powerful atlantic ocean hurricane ever reported in history. i'm tracking these live images throughout the morning. that's the latest here. back to you. >> all right, thank you. bay area resources are headed to florida ahead of hurricane irma. however, here at home, the storm is serving as a stark reminder of the importance of having a

disaster plan in place. >> abc7 news reporter katie marzullo has the story from san jose. >> just to be able to contribute. i feel pretty good about that. hopefully it helps somebody. >> reporter: don is one of 12 bay area red cross volunteers on their way to florida. they'll provide shelter, water, and medical services in the path of hurricane irma. >> i have been on stand-by for two weeks. i said i'll do it. i'll do it, i'm tired of waiting. let's go do something. >> santa rosa firefighters, members of a search and rescue team, were on their way back from helping harvey victims but they have been redeployed to florida. oakland firefighters returned monday night, but they could be headed out as well. >> a wake-up call, we need to be ready. >> san jose mayor sam liccardo said whether it's a hurricane, flooding, or an earthquake, a city has to be prepared for a disaster. >> no matter how fast the federal calvary may be riding in, it's never fast enough when a major disaster strikes. you need to have the resources in place within the city.

>> he said especially when it comes to setting up shelters. the city's director of emergency management said san jose is currently updating its emergency operations plan. the flooding revealed how out of date it was. >> that would include information about shelter operations, responsibilities of all the various departments within the city and how we can better respond to the next event that we face. >> the director said new technology always needs to be integrated as well, like the city's alert notification system. katie marzullo, abc7 news. these massive skyscrapers -- not those. we obviously don't have them here. massive skyscrapers, imagine, use your mind's eye right now, the reason miami city officials are sending out an urgent warning this morning. they'll telling those who live near construction sites that cranes are only built to sustain category 4 storms. irma is classified as a category 5. crane's arms are not tied down.

city officials believe the counterbalance could pose a danger to nearby buildings so officials are telling those who live nearby to leave. >> this is not something you want to hear ahead of irma. it appears fema is almost out of money. it could run out by this friday if congress doesn't provide more funding this week. as of yesterday morning, fema had a little over a billion on hand. however, only half is immediately available for response and recovery efforts. a billion dollars may sound like a lot, but when you consider fema had a little over $2 billion on thursday, you could see how fast it can spend money in situations like this. it calculates to about $155,000 a minute. >> for a look at where irma is now, let's head over to mike nicco. >> all right, matt. hey, everybody. let's take a look at live doppler 7. you can see the eyewall pulling away from anguilla heading off to the west. let's see the outer bands are already moving into puerto rico. as you can see there, san juan getting pelted by wave after
