girls in just one oklahoma town. >> and it's the calm after our big bay area storm. a fair stretch of weather that extends well into this weekend. i've got your full forecast. and the sig alert for 680 has been canceled. better news there, but worst past the coliseum. a new accident i'm seeing. i'll see if we can see it coming up. >> and top of the hour, we give you a live look at the bay bridge, the golden gate bridge, that is. traffic smooth right now, mike will keep you posted. it is monday, april 16th, "today in the bay." >> good monday morning to you and thanks so much for joining us. 6:00 right now, i'm laura garcia-cannon. >> and i'm john kelley. oakland police looking into an outburst of violence. six separate shootings within a ten-hour period. the most serious injury around 11:15 last night.

when a man was shot in the chest. paramedics rushed that man to a nearby hospital where he is right now listed in stable condition. officers tell us only one arrest has been made so far. >> an emotional day for families of several missing boaters. bob redell live from marin county with an update on the crew lost at sea. good morning, bob. >> and unfortunately, four of them are still lost at sea, and now that the coast guard has called off the search, there's not much hope they're going to be found. the coast guard had been searching around the islands, which were about 30 miles outside the golden gate, the coast guard says they spent 30 hours this weekend searching an area that covers roughly 5,000 square miles for the four missing sailors who were onboard a boat called the low-speed chase. this is a 38-foot racing sailboat. you see it on the youtube video posted before the weekend. on saturday during a race

around, huge waves swamped the boat and slammed it into the rocks. several sailors knocked into the rough seas, including mark of belvedere. alan kahill is also missing, as well as two other men and one woman. >> now we've lost not only these amazing, beautiful human beings, but the top sailors in our entire county. like if anyone could've made it, they should have made it. it's just not right. >> you could see in this image from the coast guard that rescuers used a helicopter to retrieve at least one of the sailors. the survivors were cold and bruised. one broke his leg. the missing sailors were wearing life preservers and weather gear, but nothing to protect them from the ocean's very cold temperature. last night, about 400 people gathered, held a vigil at the san francisco yacht club at belvedere where some of the sailors are members.

reporting live here at vista point. and today marks one month since sierra lamar went missing. the 15-year-old disappeared on march 16th on her way to school. hundreds of volunteers have since spent the weeks combing through fields near lamar's home searching for any kind of clues. tonight, sierra's family holding a balloon release and prayer vigil at burnett elementary near where the searches have been organized. more volunteer searches are scheduled for wednesday, this saturday and coming sunday. it is 6:03 right now. and we now know a toddler found inside a parked car at the san jose shopping center is the daughter of two victims of an apparent murder/suicide. the little girl is now in protective custody after being found saturday at the gould center in south san jose. the girl was strapped into a car seat a few feet away from where her father shot the girl's mother and turned the gun on himself. so far, officers not released

the names of the gunman or the woman he killed. also this morning, two people in the hospital after a driver of a hot rod just lost control and plowed right into a building. san jose police say the car hit a pole, then crashed into a building sunday night. witnesses say the driver and passengers had just left a car show a few blocks away and were speeding down the street at about 80 miles per hour, that happened right before the crash. in the south bay, a man is recovering from emergency surgery after a bizarre accident of remote control airplane hit him. a boy fired up the plane friday afternoon in the sky park in morgan hill. you can see it off of 101. they say the plane went out of control hitting people nearby. one man went to the hospital after the propeller cut him above his knee. investigators say people who operate remote-controlled planes are supposed to have spotters, and in this case, it seems the boy did not have one. it could be the largest

strike of higher education teachers in u.s. history. the faculty association voting today on whether to walk the picket line at all 23 csu schools. "today in the bay's" christie smith is live at hayward at why the vote comes at a turbulent time for the school system. christie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, john. well, csu faculty are saying they're upset, fed up, frustrated. they're saying that they're being asked to take hit after hit while those at the top aren't. and, in fact, they're getting pay raises. some campus presidents to the tune of 10%. that according to the president of the california faculty association. librarians and counselors vote on a strike authorization starting today. the last one-day walkout was last november at two campuses. they've been without a contract since 2010. and one of the big issues they say is proposed salary freezes. the faculty wants more job stability. and this comes as you said the

csu system is facing awfully rough times losing nearly 1 billion in state funding since 2008. tuition hikes have set off clashes and demonstrations at trustee meetings in southern california. but a spokesperson says it's really premature to talk about a strike vote when they're still bargaining. the voting runs for about two weeks to authorize a two-day strike at the campuses. but they haven't decided which date they might choose. reporting live in hayward, christie smith, "today in the bay." soon oakland voters could have their say on term limits and rank choice voting. some council members are considering the measure for the november ballot that would limit council members and the city attorney to three consecutive four-year terms in office. another initiative for the ballot would repeal rank choice voting in mayoral and city attorney elections. instead, those races would go back to a general election early

in the year followed by a runoff election in november. rank choice voting was approved by voters back in 2006. but the system has faced harsh criticism since mayor quan beat perada. it has been rough all the way around as people sifting through rubble after a series of storms in the midwest. people waking up today to the remains of destruction from more than 100 tornadoes assaulted the central and southern plains over the weekend destroying just about everything in its path. five people were killed in woodward, oklahoma. three of those victims were a dad and his two children. we now know woodward's warning sirens were damaged and did not sound. and people there, of course, can't help but wonder if those alarms would've saved lives. >> i thought about that ever since i found out that we lost five people.

so i would think it would have helped, yes. >> we will have more on the storms and that cleanup coming in a live report from woodward coming up at 6:45. >> tragic to see the pictures. all right. much clearer in our neck of the woods. we want to check in with christina loren right now. >> high pressure making for a gorgeous start over the city of san francisco. we do have a little bit of wind out there this morning. and this is helping us keeping that fog from settling in. storm we're going to lose that wind and i believe we'll be dealing with thick fog tomorrow morning and the same goes for wednesday morning. but by thursday, friday, offshore flow making for completely fog free clear starts. even in san francisco. 50 degrees in san francisco right now you're at 50 in oakland. and 45 degrees down in sunniville. we're headed toward a really comfortable week especially if the wet weather kept you inside last week. the good news is, we'll be at 65 degrees noon inland today, and at the coast, even 59 degrees at noon rounding out the day with

clear start, temperatures skyrocketing as a result. 50s this morning in places like oakland and concord, we're at 47 degrees right now in san jose, we're going to climb to 66 by noon today. and we'll round out the day with plenty of 70s. 73 degrees in san jose, and 71 degrees in livermore. we stop the clock on your future cast at 5:00 a.m. tomorrow morning between 5:00 and 7:00 starting to see pretty thick fog developing over the bay area. and i wanted to step tough the picture just to show you we might see a stray shower or two. up in the north bay. sonoma county, you have a better chance than marin. as we head throughout wednesday into thursday, we stop the clock at 2:00 a.m. look at that, a completely clear start. high pressure really moving in, driving those winds offshore as a result, we're talking about the mid-80s on thursday. that's not even peak warmth. 84 in san jose, saturday, sunday, holding on to comfortable conditions. you can hit the beach with 73 degrees in places like san

francisco and santa cruz on saturday. then sunday, we're going to drop off your temperatures, bring the onshore flow back into the mix. but overall, still holding on to seasonal conditions for this time of year. let's check your drive at 6:18 with mike. >> the south bay looking all right, the freeways clearing from the accident. major intersection, car -- well, the roadways cleared. the cars clear from the roadway. we do have a signal that you might find roadwork going on there. minor delays. southbound 680 at scott creek road. the car off the roadway, now cleared from southbound 680 lanes. but you still have activity again on the shoulder there for a minor distraction. slower drive, 26 minutes out of the pass over toward the dublin interchange. a distraction as you're heading toward the jam at the dublin interchange. the earlier sig alert has cleared but enough to cause more of a backup as you're approaching that dublin interchange and heading over to

castro valley. back to you guys. well, employees at yahoo this morning will find out more about the future of their company. scott mcgrew joins us with more on that. >> good morning to you. a preview of those changes last week, he's restructuring yahoo to hopefully reinvigorate the company. but we will find out a lot more this week. tomorrow, yahoo reports its quarterly profits and that's when if things go as expected thompson will get on the phone with reporters for a conference call and answer some tough questions about what he intends to do with the ailing company now that he's cut 2,000 people from its payroll. over the weekend, we learned the government wants to fine google for not being more straightforward in washington's investigation into what data those google cars collect. google cars take more than pictures. they can also record the names of wi-fi networks. and years ago those same cars actually recorded some of the data on people's wi-fi networks

and that sparked the investigation. google says one guy added the computer code in those cars which caused them to take in too much information. but that one engineer will not cooperate with government investigators. the government case is a civil case. what you admit to in civil court can end up in criminal court. as for the fine, it's all of $25,000, which google should be able to afford. google reported it made $10 billion in revenue last quarter, back of the envelope math shows google makes about $25,000 every 20 seconds. otherwise this case is closed. the fcc will not be pursuing the matter any further. john and laura? >> thank you very much. 6:21. coming up, plenty to talk about in washington this morning after 11 secret service agents are accused of hiring prostitutes in colombia. we'll have the latest in a live report.

joining us live with the details. good morning. >> good morning, everyone. the investigation now also includes five service members who may have been involved now confined to their quarters while the u.s. tries to determine exactly what happened here. colombia police say the service members and the advance team brought prostitutes to the hotel last thursday before the president arrived for the survey. saying their members may have been involved. president obama saying he'll reserve judgment on this and that he'd be angry. that was the word, angry if, in fact, this is confirmed. the secret service in a statement said that it demands more from the employees and that those expectations are met and exceeded every day by the vast majority of the staff. congress also investigating the homeland security committee, the chair of that committee says they want details, than want to know procedures need to be changed and perhaps most importantly if there were any

hints of problems before this particular incident, they want to know if it's an isolated incident or if somehow these service members in these secret service members may be exposing themselves to risk maybe even blackmail. laura? >> very interesting, thank you, tracie. let's toss it over to christina loren in our nbc bay area weather center. good morning. >> good morning. the bearer of good news. we have a gorgeous day shaping up. lots of sunshine out there already. 45 degrees in sunnyvale. we'll see the 70s later on. let's check your drive with mike. >> the accident reported between a taco truck and a big rig. that's not at the coliseum, sounds like the big rig is pulled over there. no injuries. we do have the metering lights turned on. back to you. >> thank you very much. 6:27 right now. still to come on "today in the bay." could certify a strike. find out why they're not happy coming up in a live report.

what they're dealing with. and scenes looic this stretch out for miles not only here in oklahoma, but across the central and southern plains after that string of more than 100 tornadoes ripped across that area saturday into sunday. six people dead as a result of the storms, all six from here in woodward, oklahoma. three of those victims a single dad and two of his young children who were trying to ride out the storm in their mobile home. they died. so this small community dealing with that grief while they try and deal with all of the mess here. as they try and deal with getting back in some way to lives before the storm although they're beginning to realize now that's going to take quite some time, laura. >> i can't even imagine. thank you very much, jay, for that live report from oklahoma. >> let's check in now for a report out on the roads. what's happening on this monday morning? >> all right, you guys. we're going to look at the south bay first of all to the north of san jose, things are moving nicely up the peninsula. we have slowing here, capital expressway, north of 680, and 87

coming into downtown, might see a little more traffic, some schools are back from spring break, others are getting their spring break. the last from what i understand are getting spring break. give them a shout out. we did a fundraiser for them earlier this year. southbound 680, little slow out of pleasanton and into sunol, but the earlier sig alert into the dublin interchange caused more backup which is now just finally getting back to its normal flow. a little slowing past livermore and portola, a 29-minute drive out of the altamont pass and heading toward the dublin interchange. a smooth drive the valley y. not a lot of drama here, a smooth drive, northbound past the coliseum also looking nice. that's the east bay and a pe nans la drive as we talked about, 101 into and out of the city and 280, as well. that's usually clear and it is this morning, as well. get a live look outside and show

you the golden gate bridge. the southbound traffic moving nice across this bridge. that clear view from north bay and minor slowing through san rafael and right around highway 37, typical blips we see are there this morning. >> thank you very much. new this morning, oakland police looking into an outburst of violence. six separate shootings within a ten-hour period. the most serious injury happening at around 11:15 last night on herbert guice way. paramedics rushed that man to a nearby hospital where he's listed in stable condition. officers tell us only one arrest has been made so far. the coast guard is suspending search efforts toed for several missing boaters. bob redell is live with an update for us. >> good morning to you, laura. the search called off at sunset last night around the alands which is about 30 miles outside the golden gate. the coast guard spent a huge chunk of the weekend roughly 30 hours looking over an area that

covers roughly 5,000 square miles trying to find the four missing sailors. they were onboard the low-speed chase, a 38-foot racing sailboat. you can see it there on the youtube video posted before the weekend on saturday during a race, huge waves swamped the boat, slammed it into the rocks, several sailors knocked into the rough seas including mark of belvedere. the coast guard was able to recover his body. alan kahill of tiburon is still missing as our two other men and one woman. >> now we've lost not only these amazing, beautiful human beings, but the top sailors in our entire county. if anyone should've made it, they should have made it. it's just not right. >> in this image from the coast guard, you can see rescuers used a helicopter to pluck at least one of the survivors. survivors were cold, bruised,

one broke his leg. the missing sailors were wearing life preservers and weather gear, but nothing to protect them from the ocean's very cold temperatures. last night about 400 people held a vigil in belvedere north of where i'm at right now. and this is a club where some of these sailors were members. reporting live here in marin county, bob redell, "today in the bay." today sierra lamar's friends and family marking the one-month anniversary of her disappearance. she disappeared on her way to school. since then hundreds of volunteers spent weeks combing through fields in morgan hill and surrounding areas. tonight, sierra's family holding a balloon release and a prayer vigil at burnett elementary where the searches have been organized. more volunteer searches are scheduled for wednesday, saturday, and sunday. >> tragic ending for a little toddler found inside a parked car at a san jose shopping

state university employees as you said, professors, librarians, counselors, coaches from 23 campuses will vote on whether or not to authorize the two-day strike. they've been without a contract from 2010. they want more say in the classroom about sizes. they also don't like a proposed salary freeze at current levels. but a csu spokesman says it's too early to be talking about a strike when there's still bargaining. faculty is considering rolling strikes at each of the campuses. the vote goes on until april 27th. reporting live in hayward, christie smith, "today in the bay." 6:54 right now, golden gate bridge will mark a milestone when it turns 75. and starting tonight, the southern approach will be torn down. tonight through april 27th, caltrans crews are shutting down the far northbound lane of doyle drive. the lane will be closed weeknights and between 8:00 p.m.

myopathy nine years ago, but he received a transplant from a man. the family agreed to meet the men their son had helped. >> i said this must be really hard for you. and it's very bizarre we're in this place. and the emotions obviously are high and it's harder for you than it is for me. and you know, i wish i could, you know, have something beyond simply thank you. >> shaw says he plans to honor his donor by living life to the fullest. within a few months of his transplant, he already rode a 50-mile bike race and was hiking 30 miles a week. he says he's grateful to all of those who choose to be organ donors. well, the raiders will face the denver broncos next season, but i can tell you they will not face this guy on the broncos' sidelines. iffer the first time in broncos' cheerleading history, a guy tried out for the squad and no, did not make the cut. and based on this sampling of his dancing, if that's what you

want to call it, he was not dismissed merely because he was a guy. rock on. san francisco might send in the clowns to cut back on late night noise. this is video from the facebook page of a mime shoot. "the chronicle" reports the commission could do something similar by sending mimes into neighborhoods known for night life. are these two stories real? the last two? the goal would be to use theater and dance to raise awareness about noise and pollution. the plan is just in an exploratory phase now. >> maybe he should be a mime. we'll keep it going. let's check in with scott mcgrew now for the latest on wall street. >> yeah, when you've got to add music to mimes, you know the mimes are not that entertaining. let's take a look at wall street. dow industrials are up about 80 points affairly good news about the amount of consumer sales. apple is down 2.5% this morning.
