meets tonight, what to do with an expiring moratorium on medical pot clubs. council members could set up rules or ban the establishment. voters approved a state proposition legalizing medical marijuana in 1996 and the city council is slated to approve a $9 million settlement over sewage spills. a group sued over alleged spills caused by decaying pipes. most of the settlement will be used to improve sewer lines. supporters for legalizing recreational marijuana are trying a second time to win over california voters. it got the green light from the state to gather signatures to place the initiative on the ballot. a similar measure was rejected by voters last november. i guess they try, try again. >> it's 5:07 now. time to check in with meteorologist christina loren with a look at our forecast. >> good morning to you.

boy, you snuck up on me. low pressure is going to keep things mild for us. and then high pressure starts to change things as we head closer and closer to the weekend. gradually tacking on a couple of degrees each day and we also have the potential for some strong thunderstorms to develop as we head through friday and saturday. you do want to keep that in mind. i don't think we're going to see anything widespread, mostly isolated but we're looking pretty good. until then, in fact, the temperatures don't start to climb until thursday. that's when we expect 90s. 55 in sunnyvale, headed to about 81 in fremont, 85 in gilroy and 83 in los gatos. in santa rosa, warmer for you, 82 today, san francisco i've given you a 3-degree increase from yesterday. the seven-day outlook coming up. right now let's get to you work on time with mike inouye. >> good morning. i'll take you over to the bay bridge. we have the lower deck out of

the city, your construction zone over to treasure island, that stayed the same. disabled truck replaced by a disabled car. i hit refresh on the report and it has cleared. so looks like the disabled vehicle wasn't causing a problem, now not an issue. 19 minutes off of the carquinez bridge all the way flew the berkeley curve. we're watch for the start, a little bit of slowing but no major drama yesterday. it's tuesday, so heavier volume so you might see more traffic and more slowing early on. accident at the bottom, right around sir francis drake. some debris in the road so watch that fast richmond/san rafael bridge splixt slowing through construction. but a live look shows us the conditions at the golden gate bridge. we don't need to look at that.

business state. the u.s. postal service is holding a briefing to announce a review of thousands of local post offices to identify which ones to shut down in order to save money. most of the 3600 locations are in remote areas but it doesn't necessarily mean all of them are going to close. they are looking at alternatives like locating offices in local businesses, putting a post office in a town hall or community center, trying to get creative. as you know, the agency lost about $8 billion last year. they are trying to do something. we'll be watching. >> a lot of small towns that's like the only thing that's open. it's a big loss. see how it goes. >> right. >> mail you a letter today. help out the system. >> that's nice. you do it. do your part. >> we'll be pen pals. remember those? thanks. it's 5:16. san jose residents aren't jumping at a chance to support a tax increase though the city faces a huge shortfall.

a poll conducted by the city of san jose shows the only tax increase voters seem willing to deal with is a quarter cent sales tax. even that measure only got 57% support. in order for the measure to make it on the november ballot the san jose council has to unanimously declare a fiscal state of emergency. some observers say it's not likely that would happen. >> 5:17 now. time to check the forecast with meteorologist christina loren. >> good morning to you. we've got a pretty good looking day ahead of us. i'm watching the fog, so far we're looking good. nice and mild later on today with just a little bit of fog hugging the coast. that will probably be the case until 3:00 p.m. we're not going to see the marine layer as far inland. it will be a hint warmer. the hot stuff arrives later this week toward the end of the week. and this weekend as high pressure regains control of our pattern. so it won't be quite as

comfortable as it was this past weekend into this coming saturday and sunday. 56 degrees right now in livermore, 58 in hayward and you're 56 in oakland. when it comes to cloud cover at noon in the city of oakland, 68 with a mix of sun and clouds at noon, mild conditions and that will make for a high of about 72. 83 for livermore, and 85 degrees in gilroy. we continue to climb as we head into this weekend. not too hot and then we stop climbing on saturday. so we're going to fall down to the low 90s. not too bad when you consider we could have the triple digits. so we'll take mid-90s, at least i will. >> always looking for the "silver lining." thank you. 100 bucks for putting out trash cans too early or not putting them away on time. that could soon be a reality for people living in santa rosa. tonight the city council will talk about limiting the hours trash containers can be left at the curb. 12 hours before scheduled pick-up or 12 hours after.

anything more and you're going to have to pay. offenders could be charged $100 for the first offense, $250 for the second and $500 for any time after that. so don't think about trying to be early organized if that passes. 5:18 now. former governor schwarzenegger giving an update on his son's condition. >> a failed california video game law will cost taxpayers at least $1 million. we'll talk about it coming up. >> and traveling 280 past tenth and 11th, a smooth drive as construction picks up. look atv as they develop.

after california lost for good in the supreme court. all over the law that would have prohibited the sale of violent video games to children. not only did the supreme court find the law unconstitutional, it savaged california over the ruling saying the state failed to prove its underlying case. the million dollars covers just the video game industry's side. california spent money on its own lawyers as well. >> speaking of money, shares in netflix under pressure after that company warned its massive price hike, 60%, will probably cause fewer people to sign up for the service as first-time customers. the stock was down more than 10%. netflix had been on a roll so even if you bought in the last couple months you're still up. also keep your eye on apple. that company shares topped $400 twice yesterday before closing under that magic mark. still, a high, all-time high of

$398.50. the cause, one may be what we first reported on monday before trading. that competitor research in motion would lay off 2,000 people. that company in a tremendous amount of trouble and it's hoped as corporations give up these clunky blackberries they move, in my opinion, they move to iphones. a lot of corporations are resistant to come to iphone. at some point, they are not going to have a choice and they will probably go to iphone. >> interesting. just so funny to think this is clunky. remember the big bricks we started out with. thanks so much. 5:26. giants paying a visit to the white house. we'll have all of the highlights coming up. plus, the sudden turn in the case against three boys accused of raping their classmates during a recent field trip. a live look outside. lights are on, no one's home yet. we'll tell you what there to da
