right here behind me in pittsburgh, near an ihop restaurant where the alleged car jacker lost control, smashed into a tree here. it looks like if that tree weren't there, it's possible they could have crashed into the restaurant which actually was open at the time. it started last night with antioch police receiving a report of a car jacking of two people at tenth and g streets as they left the restaurant. they were assaulted by a man and a woman and suffered minor injuries. police got another call of an accident, a car accident on contra loma. the driver was seen leaving. pittsburgh police then spotted that car. there was a short chase through the streets. and the driver lost control and crashed here. 41-year-old antioch resident isidor galley was arrested and

turn. it took a nose-dive into the water. 14 crew members were on board. no one luckily was hurt. the boat's skipper says he's been in a similar situation before but never on a boat this size. spithill says the team will have to find a way to cope. >> strong comeback from that. we've got a lot of work. we'll come up with a new strategy and go out and win. >> the team is now assessing the damage that was done to the ac-72. the wing of the boat was badly damaged. this is only its eighth day on the water since it was launched back in august. turning now to decision 2012 and the debate that has the nation talking this morning.

president obama, mitt romney, clashed over a number of issues last night. sometimes giving off the sense they just don't like each other. political science professor joins us to talk about this. thanks so much for getting up early. jim, a much different tone than the first debate. who do you think came off the best? >> it was very contentious. i think they both came out with the intent of winning. i think probably barack obama helped himself a little more certainly than he did in the first debate. i think his performance in the first debate was panned as being flat and he needed to come out with some energy and really try to set the tone for the debate. i think he probably feels pretty good about his performance today. we'll have to see if it stops some of the gains that romney had made over the last few weeks. >> now, mitt romney getting a little bit of flack on twitter for his answer on a question to workplace equity for women. let's listen. >> serving as governor of my

state, because i had the chance to pull together a cabinet, and all the applicants seemed to be men. i went to my staff and i said, how come the people for these jobs are all men? they said, these are the people that have qualifications. said, gosh, can't we find some women that are also qualified? so we took a concerted effort to go out and find women who had backgrounds who could be qualified to become members of our cabinet. i went to a number of women's groups. they brought us whole binders full of women. >> they're going to be fighting for those binders full of women, those female voters. did the comments hurt or help him? >> i certainly don't think they help him. i think the comment binders full of women is already something that's blowing up on twitter and facebook. it's one of those bumper sticker ready sort of phrases. i don't think it helps. the question was about pay equity for women. he was talking about going through binders full of women

for his cabinet in massachusetts. he made some other comments such as "we want to have flexible hours for women." so they can go home and cook dinner for their family or something of that nature. i don't think those comments really help him with the women vote. certainly, i think president obama will exploit those comments over the next few days on the campaign trail. >> as for president obama what about any mistakes he made during last night's debate? >> well, i think the first question was from a college student who is concerned about what job he'll be able to get. his first response was to talk about student loans. he referred to manufacturing jobs. factory work. which i think most students who are going to college are actually looking for different types of jobs than that. i think the response is more tailored for voters in ohio rather than the person would asks the question and i think that was a little bit off topic or off tone. >> both candidates as well, they

had to get their point across. thank you for joining us. from hard-hitting politics to some baseball heavy-hitters. game three starts in about eight hours. the big question, will mother nature being playing ball? >> our sports analyst live in st. louis. how's the weather out there? >> right now, it's unbelievable. looking on the temperature thing, it's 63 at the stadium. they put the tarp on after batting practice yesterday. they're expecting a ton of weather, come around noon. game time, it's supposed to hit really hard. it could be a long game tonight. >> there's always a concern with your starting pitching. when you have the possibility of rain. both clubs have to deal with that. they'll talk to us about what the situation is. both managers, both clubs, general managers.

we'll try to do the right thing. >> well, marco scuddero will be in the lineup tonight. more about that coming up. >> thanks so much. >> a little bit a payback for that baseball karma for that scuttero hit. >> we'll have a more in depth analysis of that forecast. as you know, i get to do the updates on comcast sports net bay area. 52 degrees in nevada this morning. we're at 57. it is warm out there in some north bay cities. we're going to talk about 5 to 8 degrees warmer. fog free conditions right off the bat. then things change. sharp turns ahead in the weather department. jacket weather returns.

welcome back, everybody. it was 23 years ago today the earthquake left its mark in the bay area. that quake caused more than $6 billion in damage to the bay area. "today in the bay" is live in san francisco where the california academy of science is using a very unique way to remember. >> reporter: it shook the nerves of everyone here in the bay area. the shake house simulator here is out of commission for the next few weeks but they will still be able to show parents and their kids the effects of an earthquake. low mar preyacht that was an magnitude 6 and it wasn't even centered in san francisco, the

epicenter was on the mountain in the santa cruz mountains. because the tremor was 11 miles underground, this city wasn't spared. the average depth is about 4 to 6 miles. we all remember a span of the top deck of the bridge came crashing down on the lower deck. it was the largest earthquake in the bay area since the big quake of '06. damage, as you mentioned, was estimated at about $6 billion. tomorrow during the academy's great shakeout event, some school kids will come here to learn about earthquake preparedness. they'll learn how in this kind of an emergency it's okay to drink water from the tank of your toilet. we're not talking about the bowl of your toilet, we're talking about the tank of your toilet. all right, remember, it was about 5:04 p.m.

i was at home. i was a college student, getting ready to watch the bay bridge world series. it started doing this. not a fun place to be. >> yeah, i remember it so well as well. brent was at that game believe it or not. crazy times in the bay area. the toilet thing, i think i'll go buy some bottleld water, thak you very much. it could change the face of silicon valley. the death of the computer as we know it? >> smart phones, tablets, they've taken over. causing chaos in companies which supply the computer industry. santa clara's intel on tuesday said it was slowing production and had too many chips in inventory and it would affect profits. shares in intel are down almost 8% on the year. there's been talk that intel's biggest competitor, amd, will lay off workers in sunnyvale and

the layoffs could be large. mcafee makes the kind of software you put on pcs. microsoft which reports profits tomorrow it jumping on this tablet craze with the surface tablet priced at $499. microsoft says the tablets will go on sale a week from friday. so a huge seismic shift over the tablet. a lot of pressure on traditional tech this morning. jackie deangela continues our coverage. >> the futures are lower this morning. most likely due to disappointing earnings from intel and ibm renewing concerns about the slumping pc market and businesses cutting back on spending. the dow posting its biggest gain in a month thanks to solid earnings from j & j, united health and coca-cola. despite the surprise resignation of the citigroup ceo.

we'll get some data on housing starts and building permits today. the dow rising 127 points to 13,551. the nasdaq up nearly 37 points, closing at 3101 yesterday. scott. >> all right, jackie, thanks. larry page, the ceo of google, it feeling much better. we'll take a look at his health coming up in an hour. >> temperatures going down now, instead they're going up. he likes to light a nice warm fire. >> this is the time of year you want to light that fire, wake up to full-on cloud cover. not going to be the case for today. in fact, we're done with the fog for a few days. doesn't look like it's going to

come back until saturday morning. so don't get comfortable by any means. we're at 52 in san jose. 53 in gilroy to start. not expecting any low clouds or that marine layer to even get close to the coast. let's continue to run this thing all the way through thursday. no clouds to report continuing through friday morn. by saturday morning, those clouds come in quickly. yeah, it looks like shower activity for the second half of the weekend so things are going to change dramatically over the course of the next 72 hours but we're going to get warmer before we cool you off. 91 degrees is the high i'm forecasting. the old record, 90, set in '08. even more likely to break and smash through records. as we creep your numbers up even 5 to 8 degrees. more in some instances. so it's going to be warmer. we'll peak and then cool off

friday. 84 in freemont. 82 in san francisco. when you get that off shore flow, almost uniform highs across the bay area, so the microclimate is not making for 20 degrees of separation or more as you would typically see when temperatures hit the 90s inland. only about 9 degrees of separation today. that means if you can hit the beach, ooh, i really envy you, because it's going to be nice out there today. things start to change. high pressure takes a hike, breaks down. we talk about that shower chance for your city coming up and strong storms in st. louis. and i'm talking about hail, thunder, lightning. and tonight's game could be rained out. we'll talk about that coming up. >> also watch out for the giants. south bay with a smooth drive right now. we're looking at an accident reported here north 280 as you're getting up towards page mill road.

volunteer. >> we don't know exactly how much liquid water is being used. we don't know the types chemicals that are being mixed in the water. >> that is correct. >> we don't know exactly how many wells. >> that is correct. >> reporter: industry advocates point out so far fracking has been used safely in california to extract oil from underground reservoirs for decades. tonight, what to do to bring this industry into public oversight and we add up what we know about the level of fracking going on in california. that's tonight at 11:00. i'm steven stock, nbc bay area news. 5:22. coming up, the latest into the investigation of a massive fire at a san francisco restaurant, including how much the damage is going to cost.

but here's how it looked at the end. this started at a restaurant near tenth and g streets in antioch where a pair was leaving when they were assaulted. and their car stolen. then about an hour later, police notified a car matching the description of the one that was stolen had crashed. police say the driver there jumped out and into another car. pittsburgh police then spotted that car. there was a chase through the streets. the driver lost control and crashed where we are. now, 41-year-old antioch resident isidero dali was arrested. they say he has an extensive criminal history. he was booked on car jacking charges. police do tell us this morning they are still looking for the woman involved in the original car jacking that happened but

"today in the bay"'s tr tracie . >> reporter: president obama has two stops in two different states. first, iowa for a campaign event at cornell college in iowa. then ohio, athens, to speak at ohio university there. both of them college events. this is something that's not unusual. we often see the president with those younger audiences trying to tap into the support he got four years ago. governor romney today heads to virginia. he's staying in virginia for a couple of events. he's bringing out all the country music fans.

at a rally in chesapeake, virginia, in the norfolk area, with comedian dennis miller and country singer lee greenwood, you might remember, "proud to be an american." later, another event closer to the d.c. area with miller and country music singer andy griggs. so romney try to make the rounds in a state where we've seen his poll numbers start to increase. he's closing the gap there. he's putting some resources into virginia today as well. laura. >> very interesting, thank you, tracie. last night's rematch was kind of like ali/frazer in a heavyweight bout there. neither side about to pull any punches. >> have you looked at your pension? mr. president, have you looked at your pension? >> i don't look at my pension. it's not as big as yours so it doesn't take as long. i don't check it that often. >> let me give you some advice.

look at your pension. you also have investments outside the united states. >> joining us this morning in santa clara university political science professor jim cotrell. both sides made some strong points last night. >> i think round two went to obama. he accomplished some of the things that he wanted to do. he had more at stake after the first debate. i think he needed to come out more energetic. he's probably very satisfied with his performance. mitt romney probably is fairly happy. but i think probably obama had more to gain. so from that perspective, i think he probably came out ahead. >> definitely a lot of action to watch last night. the president was specifically called out about the terrorist attack on the u.s. consulate in libya. let's take a listen to his response. >> what went on here -- >> secretary clinton has done an

extraordinary job but she beiwo for me. i'm the president. i'm always responsible. nobody's more interested in finding out exactly what happened than i did. >> professor, the question is, do you think the president said enough to satisfy those all-important undecided voters? >> i think he conveyed a sincere, you know, concern for our personnel overseas. he really tried to take responsibility and sort of have a harry truman moment. you know, the buck stops with me. from that perspective, i think he reached some voters. mainly what he did was probably energize democrats and get them more excited. >> the consensus shows romney takes round one. obama a slight edge in round two. do you think really last night was it a game changer for either camp? >> i don't know necessarily it was a game changer. i think both candidates can be a little bit satisfied and take away some things from that.

i think in terms of the foreign policy question, back to that last clip we looked at, i think the more romney asked questions about benghazi, it gives obama an opening to talk about some of his successes as well so when he takes responsibility and says the buck stops with me, he can also remind voters things like al qaeda being on the run and getting osama bin laden. we'll see, time will tell if the polls respond to this, and if he gets some help in swing states. >> a short window before round three. monday, the final time. professor, thank you. election day just around the corner. >> getting close. >> we sure are. we've got your full coverage here. also, always have the full coverage when it come, s to the forecast. >> take it away, young lady. >> 5:46 now with this picture

over san jose. our giants -- i'm going to preview a little game-time forecast. i think we're going to see delays and potentially a rainout. 52 degrees in nevada. 63 in sincen beach this morning. cool conditions down south as well. right around 55 degrees for livermore. we have a lot of moisture mostly confined over the sierra nevada. off shore winds are going to warm us up and bring temperatures that are very comparable at the coast versus those inland. not a whole lot of separation today between your microclimates in the bay area. let's talk about st. louis. the midwest gearing up for some weather today. the boundary looks like it will

coincide with the first pitch of the game. the potential for strong thunderstorms right over busch stadium. 70 degrees at first pitch. stormy conditions. those stormy conditions are fueled by warm temperatures. this is also the warmest time of the day out in the st. louis region. 68 degrees by the fifth inning. we still have a really good chance and i'm talking 70% chance of strong storms. it's going to be interesting out there. by the ninth inning, that's when things might clear out enough for them to get that ball game on. i would say there's about a 50% chance for rain delays. we'll have the latest for you. 91 degrees in santa rosa. 82 degrees in san francisco. couple great beach days. we cool off those conditions. 70s return this weekend.

so things are going to change very quickly. we've got rain on the way next week. let's check on the drive, get you into work on a good note. good morning, mike. >> this is the first burst we typically see just before 6:00. the map will show you that is our single spot for the major slowing. north towards 880. we're watching for the build on here. as well as the altamont express area. so the general volume starting to build. we'll get a look outside and see palo alto. along there, easy drive, the volume builds, at the limit.
