>> welcome back. there are new developments to tell you about in egypt this morning. this is a live look at the city there where tens of thousands have gathered once again and tensions have turned to violence in the streets of central cairo. we'll have an update for you. >> i'm bob redell live at sfo. how that massive winter storm in the midwest is causing headaches for travelers trying to get out of the bay area. we'll have that coming up. >> and today kicks off a warming trend that's going to bring our temperatures into mid-70s by this weekend. who cares what i think. the groundhog's forecast is in. we'll tell you what he thinks coming up. >> i'll tell you what i know, that wind blowing the fog out of the roadway but the wind now the top story, wind advisories for some bridges and debris blowing across the roadways. i've got my eyes on it for you. we'll let you know. >> a nice day, taking a live look before the sun comes up.

it's wednesday, february 2, "today in the bay." >> good morning. thanks for joining us. i'm brent cannon. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. big story of the day, the 2,000-mile storm. we've got video from chicago where the wind is so strong it's really knocking people over. city workers are needed to help other people cross the street. you don't want to go out if you're there. the weather is grounding flights from coast to coast, including some here in the bay area. bob redell is live at sfo with more on what's happening right now. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning. you see this line of people trying to get through security here at terminal 2 at sfo. i have no idea where they are going. i can tell you one place they are not headed, that is chicago. o'hare and midway t two major airports in the chicago area, are shut down. and already at this early hour

all of the flights, i'm talking out of sfo now on american, united and southwest, have been canceled in the morning. we are understanding that southwest might try to get a flight out later in the afternoon. that's going to be depending upon the winter snowstorm out there. you can see these pictures there it's brutal weather. for chicago this is the worst snow fall on record for a february. over a foot of snow, the high winds that you were mentioning. this happened yesterday as well. canceling flights at sfo, what we did not hear were people being stranded because they were able to go back to their home or hotel. people like debbie we caught up with early trying to get on a flight on southwest airlines. she's the lady with the mound of luggage there on the cart. yesterday she was supposed to be in columbus, ohio. obviously that didn't happen because unfortunately she didn't have a flight connecting through chicago. >> this is my fourth attempt.

i'm actually moving so it's really dramatic. >> when did you try to get out? >> originally yesterday morning. i ended up rebooking almost three times. i was supposed to start a new job today. i got 300 pounds of luggage. hopefully i'll make it. >> reporter: again, if you are trying to get from chicago from the bay area today you want to check in advance before coming out to any of the airports. even if you are trying to flew through that general direction you want to check. there's going to be the trickle down effect. we spoke with the spokesperson here earlier, from what he's understanding the storm is going to be heading east so they wouldn't be surprised if later you see cancellations along the eastern seaboard. reporting live, bob redell, today in the bay. >> we have a lot more on the storm's impact.

bob will be back and we'll have a report from north texas where snow and ice impacting the super bowl. >> a mountain of paperwork could mean delays for pg&e and it could be even longer until we know the cause of the deadly pipe line explosion in san bruno. marla is live near that explosion site in san bruno. she's got an update. >> reporter: brent, good morning. you might say that pg&e is buried under a pile of paperwork. you could equate the problem as facing searching for a needle in a hay stack. finding the right document that can prove it set safe gas pressure limits for the pipes, pg&e says it has brought in outside help to search more than a million records throughout 20 offices. they are searching through 1.25 million records. close to 300 people are on the

job 24 hours a day seven day as week. the utilities commission has given pg&e until march 15 to find the records. if they are not found it may be forced to shut down for days to run tests to find weaknesses. the explosion here that killed eight people and wiped out dozens of homes happened almost exactly five months ago. next wednesday will mark five months. in addition to the paperwork problem, new gas leaks have been discovered close to where we are. coming up i'm going to tell you exactly where the new gas leaks have popped up. live in san bruno. "today in the bay." >> thank you. 6:05 now. more on the developing story we're following in ejixt pro and anti-government groups fighting in the streets of cairo. it's just after 4:00 in the

afternoon. hundreds of people who support president mubarak made their way into the square. and we have amazingly seen things get very tense and escalate, both sides started fighting, throwing things. president mubarak actually says he wouldn't run for re-election but it's interesting that he comes into the square. he will now not resign. some experts warn that more reforms need to be made. >> it's a boiling pot, take the top off, they will burn themselves out. they will go away. i don't think that's likely the case. >> senator john kerry says the u.s. has a huge interest in what happens to egypt.

>> as you know a lot of people trying to get out of the country, about 1,000 americans should be leaving egypt now in the next couple of days. the u.s. embassy started putting non-essential staff on charters to get out. a look at the crowded airports as they try to find any. they put that in place yesterday but the situation there is deteriorating. >> scott continues our coverage on the eruption of violence. protesters did int have access to the internet. >> it's interesting. in the past when we talked about with hess revolutions and demonstrations the media got excited about the roll of switer and concentrating 0 at any media instead of the message. old school organizing works. last night's gathering of the millions in cairo was coordinated by players and

posters. pieces of paper. it was an interesting social experime experiment. as many have pointed out one of the ned works is al jazeera english. i got it working on my tv, this is video of that from my home television. it was invented about i the fellow who invented the dvr. i thought it was worth mentioning as one more way to see al jazeera and some of the live kofrnlths. >> tonl place poised for a place in leadership. ment of yemen says he will not seek another term or turn power over to his son. it is a move in response to protests that in that country that have been inspired by the ones in egypt and tunisia.

the u.s.-backedment of yemen has been in power nearly 32 years, his current term ends in 2013. >> want to get you updated with what's going on around here. one of the things to watch for, a little wind. >> the east bay hills and in the mountain passes, we have gusty winds, gusting to 40 miles per hour at times, that means you could get knocked around. especially if you drive a high-profile vehicle. watch for debris on the roadways. 52 in san francisco, we're starting out really mild and we don't have the low clouds that really dense fog overhead in the east bay and the north bay so. that means once the sun comes out around 7:15 a.m., our temperatures are going to start to climb substantially. we're talking about temperatures in the 60s today. high pressure really amplifies. we have a dry air mass overhead so if you are somebody who suffers from chapped lips, keep

that chap stick handy. it's dry out there. 65 degrees in oakland, 62 in redwood city and 64 in los gatos. lots of sunshine today and sunshine continued all the way through this weekend. we're going to see our temperatures climb all the way through sunday. look at your extended forecast. i think you'll appreciate these numbers especially maybe you're visiting here from the east coast and you see that we're seeing very nice conditions over near. 71 degrees on friday, saturday, 71 degrees and 73 for your sunday. and everybody's favorite little fellow popped out of his hole. didn't see that shadow, he says early spring. i have a feeling that everybody in pennsylvania is not going to like that forecast. what do you think, mike. >> i think folks are envious of that as well as ours. we'll take you over to the roadways. the change for the forecast, less fog. the wind is blowing that out of the area but that will be an

issue for the morning drive. the volume of traffic, 17 minutes and building out of the alta mont pass. might get a gust. antioch had it from eighth, down to 20 at the worst. a little drop as well. the wind blowing the fog away. chp has a wind advisory. the benicia bridge, overnight and through this morning i'm extending it to the carquinez bridge, 80 not far away experiencing similar conditions. a smooth drive. the backup is because one of the lanes is not yet open. >> 6:11 now. the tsa is testing a new body scanner. why it says it could ease concerns about invasion of privacy. >> he sin studio with us and we're going to talk to him coming up next.

>> a live look outside speaking of san jose overlooking the hp pavilion. feels like spring across the bay area, a far cry from what's happening. 6:12 now.

the next, you start one feeling bit off.fine. the moment you feel run down or achy, nip flu-like symptoms in the bud, with oscillococcinum. get oscillo and feel like yourself again. oscillococcinum, nip it in the bud.

>> good morning again. time 6:14. once again these live pictures out of cairo where we're watching the protests get a little violent this morning. we are told that the two sides, the pro government supporters

and anti-government demonstrators are now clashing in the streets, we've seen these protests become somewhat violent. it looks like now they put up some trucks separating the two groups, they are throwing rocks at each other. there is a distance separating the two. the police have somewhat been involved but the military police have been trying to take more of a stand off-ish approach in this, not wanting to insight anything. but at the same time we hear reports that some of the people who were starting the violence are dressed as police officers, and they are not sure if they are actual police officers or people impersonating them. we have seen some violence now in egypt. tens ever thousands in the town square. we're watching the situation. we'll update you all morning long on what's going on out of egypt. >> calmer on the streets of san jose as there is a new police chief starting his first full day on the job here with us on today in the bay.

chief moore, thanks for joining us. congratulations to you. >> thank you. good morning. >> a lot of opposition with you coming into office. how did you deal with that and how will you or do you put it behind you? >> i think the important thing is to move forward. though some were concerned about the chief, i have been here a long time. i know the city, the community, and i have a lot of outreach to do because there are some concerns and i'll spend a good part of the next three or four weeks in that and beyond that as well. >> you'll try to bridge that gap by those saying there hasn't been enough outreach. >> it's critical. the city had a lot of input. it's a gift for a new chief to have that input at the beginning so you know where to address your time and spend time with the community. >> having that input is important. you also mention that you arveteran. a long time veteran with the force. will people see a change or have you had a vision all along like if i was chief i'd do it like this. >> i think more the latter.

there are a number of things that i would want -- have wanted to do and had the opportunity in the last three months as acting chief. certain policies troublesome. impound the 30 day impound policy. didn't make sense for the police department or for the community. so it was a win-1. i made that change. >> you're coming in at a time it's tough. the economy is tough, the city experiencing cutbacks that could trickle down to the police department. >> the city is facing a $110 million deficit this year. to the police department some concessions from the employee groups, looking at a $30 million cut. over 200 jobs. we don't know how the negotiations are going to pan out. i think last year was a good indication that people were willing to get to a solution. i'm hoping we'll get through this without lay offs but i'm not sure. >> what's at the top of the list. >> have i meetings with city hall and members of the community, that's going to be

typical for the next several weeks. >> i would imagine. check them off as it goes. congratulations to you a. pleasure having you here. >> thank you. >> good luck to you too. >> thank you. >> here's one. concord police getting help from the good samaritan who play add key role in catching an armed robbery suspect. it happened yesterday just after 10:00 in the morning. the suspect left, a witness followed him and told police where they could find him. police have identified that suspect as 25-year-old brandon from pittsburgh. scott is joining us with a look at the interesting internet sting you were telling us about this earlier. >> search engines want to be more like google. google seems to have figured out the the secret. google's top search engineer says he started to get suspicious in microsoft's bing. that search engine often results

matching google. dwoogle started making up fake words and linking them to pages and saw bing computers do the same thing. obvious evidence these engineers say that bing is not doing the work on its own, it's copying google. microsoft dismisses the sting as a stunt. the engineer will be my guest this sunday. wall street is back t dow and s&p 500 closed above marks set before the housing crisis. before bear stearns collapsed. this is all good news. 2008 highs. the dow opens above 10 kt s&p 500 above 1300. we get the big jobs report. there are a couple them. from the labor department on friday. egypt and the blizzard are both rshing energy prices. that is worth watching as we

continue to watch wall street. >> thanks a lot. of course we're watching the huge winter storm. we've been talking about the big blizzard and it's here. in dallas, this guy had a way around it. he got out and helped other guys get unstuck. looks hike a dune buggy, off-road thing. there were jackknifed semis on the road, lots of problems. we'll update you. you may have heard a football game, they got one going on. scheduled in the dallas area. now they have snow plows out around cowboy stadium trying to get it cleared out. with 800 flights were canceled at dallas/ft. worth. that leaves a lot of passengers stranded. it keeps a lot of football fans out. they have been trying to get in the dallas area for sunday's

game. >> you can't go. see the perks of staying home. >> it's going to be good at our house. dallas usually has a fairly mild plan. however, the big game is often played in places known for harsh winters. >> it has to be hard for those mayers. people headed to colder climates. >> next year scheduled to be in indianapolis. a lot of these places have domes now. the high in indianapolis is 25 degrees, we're still in showers. 2014 the super bowl will be in rutherford, new jersey. they have it warm. they have ice turning to rain. giants stadium does not have a roof. if you have to go to a cold place, get one with a roof. in this case the new dallas stadium has coveraging.

they are good. >> i like the old days without the roof watching the players fight through the snow and sloppy game. i miss it. 50 degrees in oakland, 45 in san mateo and 48 degrees in hayward. the big game, i'll let you know how warm it's going to be on sunday if you like to get out there and toss that football around at halftime. i think you'll enjoy what's to come. high pressure firmly in control of our weather pattern. it's positioned over most of the western half of the united states. you can see all of this gray here, that is cold sinking air. for us high pressure is going to push off a little bit to the east. you have a system nudging it. a trough where you can see that. it's not going to break through much. high pressure will gain control by tomorrow. for most that means temperatures climb to 70 degrees. 64 today. 65 in oakland and 62 in redwood

city. what's to come for the weekend, nice conditions. it's so dry even in the cities that are seeing temperatures in the low thirds, don't worry about frost. you probably need chap stick today. let's talk about something you may be looking forward to, maybe a weekend get away. is it time for a vacation? we want to send you to napa, two lucky couples are going to win free lodging and fine dining and a private wine tasting, if you win you know somebody who would deserve a trip like this. laura raised her hand. hint. >> we are employees here, i think we're exempt from competition. >> we're going to go out and i'll get you one of those super size meals. >> distraction here. i'm trying to work with you,

square in cairo where thousands of pro government supporters are clashing with anti-government demonstrators. the situation is going back and forth. we've seen pretty violent confrontations, then moments where it looks like tensions are easing. we had been told that things are calming down a little bit there. you see these trucks in the foreground. they kind of have been brought in as a barrier to separate the two groups, kind of keep from pushing and shoving. but as you see now they are throwing rocks back and forth. this whole thing starting because there is a movement asking president hosni mubarak to step down as president. he says that he will not seek re-election now. the election is in september and a lot of people want him to step down effective immediately. again, these protests between two opposition groups turning more violent this morning. it's relatively calm compared to what we've seen but they are still going at it. we'll follow that for you. meantime, more problems for

pg&e. >> it's not what people in the bay area want to hear. new gas leaks are popping up. marla is live near the explosion site in san bruno with the information. good morning. >> brent and laura, good morning to both of you. yes, the newly discovered gas leaks were found not far from where we are in san bruno. the only thing that is separating us from the explosion site is the road block you can see, now this new information cannot be sitting well with the people who live in this neighborhood or anybody who lives in the bay area. in all, 21 new gas leaks were found on pg&e's pipeline system. three of them in south san francisco which of course is in close proximity to the line that ruptured in san bruno back in september. the good news is those leaks have been repaired. to find the leaks the company flew small planes along miles.

workers walked the lanes with methane detectors. the new leaks are in addition to the almost 40 leaks initially found in october when pg&e completed its first set of inspections. it has been almost five months since the line ruptured here in san bruno killing eight and destroying 38 homes. the cause of the investigation is still under way but pg&e admits to a red tape snag. coming up about 6:50 i'll explain the massive paperwork pileup that could further delay the investigation into the cause. marla tellez, today in the "bay area living." >> thank you. divers will not go back searching for jose rodriguez who allegedly kidnap add boy and dumped his body in a canal. they found the body of juliani cardenas. his mother tabitha went to a

>> this morning australian police are reportedly turning

people away from shelters as what could be the deadly cyclone on record makes its way toward their home. the cyclone is on the way to the northeastern coast of australia in the northeastern state of queensland. evacuation shelters are jam-packed with tens of thousands of people leaving, many have to wait out in the open. the cyclone has winds gusting up to 183 miles an hour and should hit the coast late tonight. >> they already have a lot of flooding so it's bringing even more watt e not a good deal. the dreaded blizzard of 2011 is here. the white-out conditions across the country mean no flights in or out of many of america's busiest airports. >> people are getting stuck. we're talking about airports crucial to helping people get from the bay area to the midwest and the east coast, today in the bay's bob redell is live with a look at the arrival and departure board. >> reporter: good morning to you, laura and brent. ual is code for united airlines

but this morning it might be code for you ain't leaving. if you are trying to get to the chicago area. united, american and southwest the main carriers out of sfo serve the chicago area, they have canceled most of their flights for the second day this has happened. i'd say most of the flights because southwest apparently is going to try to get a flight out sometime this afternoon, though. don't know if that's going to happen because of the weather in the midwest. so, you expect maybe that this airport will be filled with stranded travelers. not necessarily the case. i think what's happened after yesterday, a lot of people turned on their brain, called in advance and stayed home at their house or in their hotel rooms, not showing up here. we did catch up with one traveler, she was supposed to be in columbus, ohio through chicago yesterday. she had to have her flight rerouted four times. she might have gotten out. the fourth time a charm through phoenix. there are a lot of cancellations because of the heavy snow in the

chicago area. they had reports, i checked, 17 to 18 inches of snow at o'hare. that's a record amount for the month of february. you add to that the high wind, that's the reason you have the trickle down effect of all of the flights canceled there. trickling down to other parts of the country. they are saying in chicago that the worst might be over. talking to mike here at sfo, because the worst is over there things have to ramp up. it could take a day, day and a half until you get back to normal here as far as getting all of the people back out to chicago. here's the other hitch. that storm apparently is forecast to move toward the east so you have the northeastern airports like jfk, logan and boston, laguardia of course in new york. those flights could experience problems. we know some of them have just because of flights transition through chicago. they can be direct hi hit with the storm. so you might see some effect of that later today. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay."

>> amazing. the trickle down effect. >> takes a long time to get the crews where they need to be, too. they have to be relocated. in the meantime it's a snow day for a lot of people across the country because of that storm. schools and businesses are shut down and closed. >> in dallas, ice and snow putting a chill on a lot of people. super bowl travel plans, chris van horn from our sister station in dallas has a look at the icy start to the morning. >> reporter: the winter weather hit north texas hard, temperatures are not expected above freezing until friday afternoon, something that is rare for this area. and wind chills are expected to be below zero. the super bowl a few days away here in ft. worth, this is where the pittsburgh steelers are staying until sunday. that means big business here. it's not clear whether winter travel delays will have impact on the city's bottom line. there's a lot of out-of-towners expected to come in and spend money here. we know that 150 flights have been canceled at dfw for today after it was closed for several
