this started at 1:00. it took 40 minutes to knock down. another hazard, two gas meters blew creighiting a five to six foot flame that burned for 90 minutes. here is the battalion chief. is it unusual for these meters to blow up? >> if there's direct flame it's definitely a possibility. if we get there early enough, we can keep the flame off the meters. with the amount of fire we had showing, it did you want surprise me at all. >> reporter: the first thing pg&e did when they got here is got the lines shut off. the power lines running across the street to the home. power is off to the home. everything is secure here. the four residents, they are getting help this morning from the red cross. reporting live in berkeley, christie smith, today in the bay. >> thank you.

a firefighter is in the hospital after falling off a ladder battling a fire in the mission district. more than 100 firefighters worked to contain the blaze. nobody else was hurt. nearby business owners were caught off guard when the fire started. >> i looked outside the building to the two buildings next to us and the wind was whipping fire off the side of the building. at that point, i knew something was really serious. >> investigators are on the scene this morning. they are looking into the cause of that fire. meantime, police say a three-alarm fire is suspicious. that fire broke out last night when a trash compacter exploded. 20 people were injured but all of them are expected to be okay. some 113 people were displaced.

the jury has reached a verdict in the civil trial of a rape case. bob redell is live outside the superior court in san jose. bob, is there any indication when the foreman might announce the verdict? >> reporter: yes, it will be later this morning. after three and a half days of deliberation, they reached a verdict. they are scheduled to announce whether they are liable and whether to award damages to the woman that says while she was drunk she was gang raped by members of the baseball team at a house party nearly four years ago. she was 17 years old at the time. initially, she was suing nine men. after testimony during the trial, six were dropped from the case. four of whom settled, two abs absolved of anything.

the other two have appeared in court to defend themselves. chadwick could face a judgment of $2.5 million for not rescuing the teen from the room where she was sexually assaulted. it was three women who got her out of the room. there could be a fine for participating in the assault. the teen was not that drunk and she invited the men to have sex with her. during the trial, recent facebook photos of her partying in scantily dressed clothes. six men and six women on the injury. in a civil trial, only nine of the 12 are needed to find the defendants liable. they only need a preponderance of evidence. this is a much less strict requirement than you would find in a criminal court that requires all jurors to agree to convict on evidence beyond a

reasonable doubt. bob redell, today in the bay. >> it's gone on for many years. we may have a resolution on that. >> interesting to see. 5:36 now. things look grim for the giants fan attacked one week ago today. he remains in a medically induced coma. they say he may have suffered brain damage. police are looking for the two dodgers fans that attacked him last thursday. in the meantime, people up and down california continue to show support for his family. there was a tearful individual for them last night. giants and dodgers fans showed up. in san jose, the paramedics held a barbecue fund-raiser for the family. they helped raise $120,000. >> he would just be overwhelmed with joy that so many people would come out and support him and be there for him.

people he doesn't even know. >> the family will receive additional donations on friday at the giants home opener. the team is dedicating the game to brian sew. san francisco's original joe is coming back but not the original location. it's 601 union street. despite the new digs, the family-owned restaurant plans to keep old stand byes including booths from the original restaurant and building a kitchen that is open to the dining room. you may recall the fire wiped outlet the original restaurant back in 2007. so, a bay area classic. if you haven't been there, gotta go. >> yeah, gotta eat at joes before the month is done. you know, a lot of clam chowder going to be sold today. a lot of the warmer food items, tea, coffee, because it's cold out there this morning.

we are going to see periods of rain. a soggy day. gusty winds. pop-up thunderstorms this afternoon. weather action, basically. we have had a lot of clear skies, beautiful days. it's all going to change. just for one day. we'll be back up to 60 degrees for tomorrow. the temperatures will continue to climb as we head throughout the weekend and next week. finally, spring is setting into the bay area. right now, we have spring showers. of course, april showers bring may flowers. as you can see, san jose is getting the light rain. you can see here by 1:00 p.m., it will be relatively clear. a little bit of isolated activity at that time. mostly in the south bay. the cold air comes back in bringing temperatures near freezing. we are expecting frost. today, not too bad. temps in the upper 50s. of course, because the rain and wind is coinciding with the morning drive, let's see how

it's doing out there with mike inouye. >> good morning. it's 5:39 now. the commute is just starting to build in many spots. before it gets there, we have two reports. debris northbound 85 past 280. that was going to be the issue but a new accident comes in. southbound 101 on to 237 heading into mountain view. it's a transition. reports of a single car accident. a spin-out there. that's what the person reported. southbound 880 at whipple road. off ramp transition and a spin out. a live look at oakland. the shaking camera, high winds. even though it's a lighter rain, it will affect your commute. we haven't had rain in a week. there's grease on the roadways. puddles on the side of the road. back to you. >> thank you very much. it's 5:40 now. the clock is ticking down to a possible government shutdown. a live report on how budget negotiations are coming up.

this morning it is the countdown to a government shutdown. while you were sleeping, capitol hill staff were pulling an all nighter to come up with a compromise. tracie potts is live this morning. no deal yet, but leaders think they are close? >> they think they are making progre progress. they were all up late last night trying to work this out. they let the staffers up later trying to work out details. the sense is number one they have the willingness to negotiate. they are making progress. they came out calling the meeting honest, productive, constructive but no deal. they are narrowed down the

issues of concern. no specific amount that both sides are willing to cut from this budget and call it a day. according to boehner there are deep cuts there. president obama reminded them it is urgent to get this done. if not, we could have a government shutdown that has real consequences for real people. we are talking 800,000 government workers all over the country, defense contractors other contractors and businesses that rely on the government being open. all of whom could lose their paychecks if they don't get something done in the next 48 hours. now the house side is working on somewhat of a compromise. we could see it come up for a vote today. a one-week extension of the current budget. that's not necessarily what they want to do. >> good to know. thanks for watching. we are hearing from a former person who is accused of

stealing drugs and selling them on the streets. he's the former manager of the enforcement team. in february, he was arrested on charges of running a drug ring. welsh would not go into specifics of the case. he says he's sorry for what he did. >> i realized i placed a black eye on law enforcement. i hope, after this is all done the citizens and the community will realize that yes, i made a mistake, but not to hold the entire law enforcement community accountable for that. >> the contra costa district attorney says 12 cases had to be thrown out because he's no longer a credible witness. 5:45 now. the man accused of kidnapping jaycee dugard and holding her captive for 18 years is expected to plead guilty today.

he faces 18 counts. we don't know the details of the plea bargain, yet. his wife nancy faces 18 counts. she's pleaded not guilty and is expected to stand trial unless there's a plea deal. >> ticks are popping up in the bay area. experts say overgrown grass in local yards, fields and parks are great breeding grounds for ticks. look at those things. they jump off the grass and anything that brushes past them. humans and dogs are most susceptible. the california board of public health says there were 11 cases of lime disease in 2009 in san mateo. ten in so know ma, three in marin. if you get a tick, save it in a jar and bring it to the doctors

office to check it for lime disease. >> sometimes they are just stuck to you. a bite into the law limiting the number of dogs without leashes inside the parks. owners can only bring three unleashed dogs to designated areas certain parts of the morning. violators could see a fine. the city already had dog limits but it wasn't enforceable. it relied on park goers to monitor. the rain is back in the bay area this morning. it brings back fears that radiation from japan will once again fall on us. experts say traces of radiation may be in the rainwater, but not at dangerous levels. the potency is cut in half every eight days. by the time it gets to the crops and on to your plate, the levels are usually harmless.

>> 5:47 now. how long is the rain going to stick around today? >> not long. it always comes down right when you are trying to get to work. give yourself plenty of time. it's windy out there as well this morning. stay alert. we haven't had to drive in these conditions for a week. be ready. grab the umbrella as you head out the door. the low pressure is pushing there. the jet stream is carrying it into the bay area. steady a.m. rain. we are going to see widespread activity until noon. then the activity deteriorates. gusty winds throughout the afternoon and pop-up thunderstorms. if you get caught up in a thunderstorm, you could find yourself in a heavy downpour, even pea-sized hail and lightning is possible. it's something we are watching for as we pick up. the temperatures are only going to climb into the 50s. you can see where the showers are headed. oakland getting good showers

here. it's pushing to the east as we head through the morning hours. they are not lingering long enough for ponding or puddling to take place. it's enough to make the roadways slick. take it easy. the cold air behind it pushes in tonight. that means it will be cold. you'll need the heavy jacket tomorrow morning. we haven't had to have that over the past couple mornings. that will all change tomorrow. the 30s are back. we are talking about the low 30s. for today, 50s. 58 degrees in redwood city. 58 in los gatos and 59 in san jose. readings in the east bay, 59 in fairfield and 59 in concord. tomorrow, we are taking the show on the road. at&t park, join us live. laura will be out there, i'll be out there. bob redell will be out there. 60 degree temps. we will be bundled up with overnight lows in the 30s. back to you brent cannon. >> thanks a lot.
