heading through tomorrow morning the onshore flow will kick in. we'll count on more of the patchy fog at the coast pushing inland. but for today high pressure is still going to be the dominant feature. it will keep a little bit of the cloud cover from making its way into the bay area, but some of it will push through heading throughout the day today. we'll call it increasing clouds for the second half of the day. the temperatures are pretty mild right now. 56 degrees in san francisco. 51 in san mateo. they are going to mean temperatures will approach the 70-degree mark once again by noon. we are already at 62 degrees in oakland. 67 in sunnyvale. and 67 degrees in san jose. what you will notice from your contour map is green at the coast. that's the marine influence pushing in. so coastal areas not quite as warm as places in the south bay today. 70 degrees in los gatos. 71 in santa cruz. 69 degrees in redwood city. showers make their way into the bay area towards the end of this weekend. i'm going to say late saturday into sunday. maybe a quarter of an inch of precipitation. the best chance to see the showers will be up in the north bay. we'll find out how your drive is

processed foods showed reduced symptoms. it is important to note the study only pertains to young children with adhd, not children who have add, that's without the hyperactive component. starting a baby on solid foods too early could increase obesity. a harvard university researcher found among formula-fed babies those introduced to solids before four months old were six times more likely to be obese by age three. no such link among babies who were breast fed for at least four months. the american economy of pediatrics recommends waiting on solid food until infants are between four and six months old. bounce houses could be bounced out of walnut creek. the reason is budget cuts. that's upsetting local parents. the city is proposing to do away with allowing the popular children's party inflatables in city parks. the city leaders say not only do they cause problems for city lawns but they tie up staff

airport. 56 right now. 49 in oakland. and you're at 49 in san jose. we actually broke a total of 24 temperature records over the course of the weekend. it was a gorgeous february weekend around here. and oakland, they hit 82 degrees, making it the warmest day in february ever on record in oakland. so temperatures are going to come down substantially today. even more so for tomorrow. we'll drop ten degrees today. then ten for tomorrow. 64 degrees in oakland as you take your lunch break rounding out the day at 70 degrees. here's a look at the extended outlook. i promised you showers. this is what we are expecting late saturday into sunday. maybe a quarter of an inch of precipitation. we'll take what we can get. it will be dry in the air quality. we'll find out how you are doing on the roadways with mike inouye. good morning, christina. we do need the rain, but right now we need a nice, smooth commute. it is slow in many spots. let me show you what we have in the city. first of all, an earlier fire on the map here.

clayton is closed as you head over to twin peaks because of the investigation. it is the fourth fire in four days. and we have a tv series filming here near this area. take lumbard around it. the backup near the 880 overcrossing here because of the metering lights turned on. it is still smooth off the maze. look at the map coming off the berkeley curve. it is very slow there. an accident heading to the venetian bridge is causing some slowing. it has cleared now. typical slowing through antioch and livermore. back to you guys. 6:36 right now. michael jackson's personal physician won't be in court today but his lawyers will be to discuss the involuntary manslaughter case. >> a judge could decide whether the case will be televised and whether jurors will have to fill out a questionnaire before facing inquiry in court.

dr. conrad murray pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. he's accused of giving the king of pop a lethal dose of the powerful anesthetic propofol along with other settives. jackson was 50 when he died in june of 2009. murray's trial begins march 28th. bank of america will pay $the 410 million to settle a lawsuit after it was accused of charging customers with excessive overdraft fees. in 2 the complaint b of a routinely processed debit transactions from biggest to smallest instead of in chronological order. now, as a result, the account balances dropped faster so that allowed the bank to then start charging overdraft fees. b of a has already changed many of its practices including eliminating fees for debit transactions. people in san mateo should be cautious when picking up the phone today. telephone scammers have conned a handful of elderly residents

into wiring money abroad. suspects have pretended to be grandchildren in need of money. a public defender, even a lottery official. the victim of at lottery scam completed eight transfers and received no winnings. they are warning people to hang up immediately on these phone calls and to report the incidents to police. a 36-year-old husband and father is dead this morning. and now the people in charge of running a popular half marathon in san francisco are facing serious questions about emergency readiness. "today in the bay's" christie smith is live on treasure island with more on this tragic story. christie? >> reporter: good morning to you. right after the runner collapsed witnesses describe a scene of confusion and delay. they say rather than seeing the first responders on scene immediately that it was fellow runners and race volunteers who administered cpr for quite some time. now the man who collapsed and

died is 36-year-old peter hass. we do have video of him this morning that was taken in 2009 when he was being interviewed. he was talking about his company pet for usa, a wholesale pet store. he was running in the keizer permanente half marathon in san francisco this weekend. 13.1 miles through golden gate park. one witness told nbc bay area news that from the time he collapsed, he was receiving cpr for 15 minutes, but still there were no emergency responders there right away. now, published reports say that fire dispatchers were given three different locations for the incident. so far no cause of death has been released, but an autopsy is set for some time this week. reporting live on treasure island, christie smith, "today in the bay." two wildfires blazing across australia have claimed 4,000 acres of land and at least 59

homes so far. the fires have been scorching the area since saturday. one of the fires was started when a power tool spark ignited dry grass. the other fire started when a tree branch was blown down by strong winds hitting an electrical infrastructure. hundreds of residents have been evacuated as the fires threaten neighborhoods. several people have been treated for smoke inhalation and one firefighter was hurt while fighting the flames. relative calm in cairo this morning. tenuous at best because egyptian president hosni mubarak refuses to step down immediately. "today in the bay's" capitol hill reporter tracie potts is live in washington with the latest on what the obama administration is doing. good morning. >> reporter: scott, good morning. good morning, everyone. they are still trying to work out the transition plan. the president says the transition is underway, not quite there yet, though. we know that the government has sat down with the opposition groups promising to stop

interfering with the media, the protests and the internet to lift emergency law and also to investigate corruption and open up presidential elections. but as we see in these live pictures and hear this morning, they are still not satisfied. they insist that president hosni mubarak step down. no indication at all that he will do that, but the protestors are not leaving. this is non-negotiable. why they are making progress on that issue they still seem to be at a standstill. that's where we are today. secretary of state hillary clinton has said maybe it is not such a good idea that he step down immediately because there's no transition plan in place yet. there's no transition or coalition government in place. and if he were to resign today they would have 60 days to pull together an election. would it be considered legitimate? lots of things still up in the air as we watch the live pictures today of more protestors and more civil unrest in egypt.

scott? ominous signs surrounding the trial of three uc berkeley grads accused of spying in iran. the judge presiding over the case was the same judge that oversought the mass trials of protestors in disputed 2009 elections. he's a hard-liner known for handing down harsh sentences. now over the weekend the three pleaded not guilty to trespassing and espionage. two of the hikers shane bauer, josh fattal, were present in court. the third, sarah shourd, with us released earlier on a half million bail. she was summoned back to court but entered her plea despite not being there. the trial will continue for at least one more session. as rumored for months facebook may be ready for a new home. the palo all thoe social networking giant invited reporters to an event tomorrow morning at city hall in menlo park. speculation is facebook is moving to the former sun

microsystems area in menlo park. they have grown from 1,000 employees to 2,000 now since 2009. silicon valley will boost the bay area economy creating thousands of jobs. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live in san jose with more. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning to you, scott. the bay area council is the group that represents local businesses. it is trying to get the world expo here to silicon valley in 2020. the idea being that moffett field over there in mountain view will be the host for the extravel began. one major hurdle is how to fund it, the money. the council estimates it will cost a billion dollars to hold the world's fair with improvements to roads and infrastructure necessary up and down the peninsula where moffett field is located. in return the council predicts the bay area would rap

tremendous rewards with 25 million viz tors over the six-month period. almost $6 million in tax revenue. a half billion in tax, i'm sorry, $6 billion in economic impact. a half billion in tax revenue. and 42,000 new jobs. now the council was inspired to put this bid together after they saw what shanghai did with the world expo last year in 2010. the final bid for 2020 is due at the end of next year. the selection would be made then at the beginning of 2013. reporting live here in milpitas, bob redell, "today in the bay." 6:54 right now. >> is it february? >> it is going to start feeling like it, right? >> yeah, really. not today, but yes, heading deeper into the week it will start to feel more seasonable for this time of the year. 83 degrees and warm in august in santa rosa. 80 degrees in napa. 77 degrees in san jose. and 72 degrees yesterday. this is in san francisco at the airport. we actually have reports of the

city being 80 degrees yesterday. unprecedented. we broke a temperature record for the month of february. oakland has never been that warm ever on record. so definitely one of the record-shattering days yesterday. today i think we'll break a couple records. definitely not as many as yesterday, but the cooling trend really kicks in heading into tomorrow. 70 today. down to 50 tomorrow. 49 degrees in oakland. turning over to 64 at noon. you'll be peeling off the first layer then. temperatures will round out in the 70s. it's the last unseasonably day with temperatures 10 to 15 degrees above the seasonal averages. if you haven't had a chance to enjoy it, go out there to do so today as temperatures start to drop off significantly by tomorrow. you will notice increasing clouds throughout the day, especially to this afternoon. the onshore flow at the coast is seeing 66 degrees. we'll jump to 69 on friday, but

then showers arrive into the weekend. we need the rain. hopefully the quarter inch we are expecting between saturday night and sunday will arrive. we'll find out what's happening right now. maybe you have to arrive to work today. that's right. a heads-up for folks as more folks hit the road. make sure you are prepared with a nice view of the city heading over from the east bay. a smooth drive across the bridge. we do have a backup at the toll plaza. we have a backup through livermore westbound. 28 minutes out of the altamonte pass. really slow through the heart of livermore. then suddenly clear by the time you get to the dublin interchange. a new incident just reported there southbound 680 at eastbound 580. that's opposite most commuters, but it could be a distraction with flashing lights. that's why we are seeing the slowdown there. pretty unusual time for that to show up. through sunol we have speeds in the 50s, but right here the live shot did show for just a few minutes almost a complete stop there. and a new accident reported south of the sunol grade heading into fremont near mission boulevard. that could have been the

disruption through the sunol grade out of pleasanton. keep that in mind. low clouds hovering here. the golden gate bridge, i want to show you the conditions here at the bottom just underneath the bridge. you can see the clouds hovering around ready to pounce on folks coming from the north bay into the city. from time to time, i have seen that drift aacross the river. it could be an issue later in the morning. thank you for that, mike. the "today" show is coming up with an exclusive interview with the american woman trapped in her apartment for days in cairo, mary thornberry. and they will also see the little boy who is behind the darth vader mask. in the meantime, have a great day. i lopet bald eagle brock, my bison sara, i love my pick-up with the custom constitution paint job... i celebrate jury duty... i love america so much, i'm making an all american jack combo two jumbo patties, with melting cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickles, plus fries and a drink for only $4.99.
