i will wipe that away and show you the north 101 is one of the alternates out of the south area. coming up, take 280 north into downtown. taking 17 north of 85 you're okay. once you get over to 87 to the right, you will get more congestion as folks come toward the hp pavilion. keep it in mind as well. use the freeways around the area to monitor traffic as it affects highway 17. >> it's 5:35 p. a man broke into a home, poisoned dogs and stole guns. one of the dogs died at that time hospital. the other was a police k-9 dog that is expected to survive. the house was burglarized and investigators think the officer was targeted because he's a cop. they are not disclosing his identity or the neighborhood he lives in. a $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest. >> new details this morning about the bay area's six

nice and slick with the added water. as you can see now the front is draped across gilroy and san jose. getting a lull from the showers. the fog is settling in and the winds are picking up and they will continue to do so throughout the morning. watch for slick conditions on your way in. you can see where the green shading is. there is a risk of severe weather. we could see strong thunderstorms with a lot of instability in the atmosphere. we'll keep the chance for tomorrow as well. the core of low pressure crosses over the bay area. keep that in mind. travel cautiously. the best chance of thunderstorms will be in the north bay in the higher elevations. winds will continue to play a role. you want to travel cautiously in the high profile vehicle. west-southwest wind at 17 miles per hour sustained. 45 miles per hour. the winds will start to drop off but not until after the rush hour drive.

treacherous. we are holding onto the sustained wind speed in oakland at 25 miles per hour. 18 miles per hour sustained in concord. just a few minutes away from the winds starting to pick up in the south bay. make sure you are ready. now you can see the moisture pushing into the south. that's the cold front there. the corresponding area of low pressure is on the way as we head to tonight and tomorrow morning. that's what's going to drive in instability. strong thunderstorms possible in the bay area. want to take you through your day via the future cast. you can see a little bit lighter activity. you want to keep the umbrella handy with stray showers around. tonight by 6:00 p.m. a little bit of a break for the evening commute. we are not out of the woods yet. more rain moves in through thursday morning. highs will be cool. be ready for that. count on a slick drive to work through 9:00 a.m. temperatures will warm up through next week.

monday back back to the mid 70s. >> even though the rain may not be falling the wet roads will be an issue for much of the morning commute for the bay area. this is a big issue here. coming up northbound 101 making the bend around there moving the cars stocked up around the bend making it back to the 680 interchange. i showed you earlier the red stretch continues here. this is the same area north to oakland with traffic backed up to 680. continuing back to tulley. there is an earlier spin out off of the roadway for north 280. spinouts here and one at mckey. the on ramp there the closed because of a single car spinout there. no injury. wet weather conditions to sprinkle the rain has come through. there is puddling, ponding, standing water through the area.

that may have contributed to some of the spinouts this morning. the rest of the routes are okay. 101 is a problem and west 237, a new crash as you head to first. tall slow you off the interchange with 880. looking at the green continuing through the hills. livermore continues with a typical build for west 580 to the dublin interchange. we'll show you the bay bridge toll plaza as it forms in the cash lanes. fast track not a problem. a wind advisory is in place. the dunbarton, bay bridge and richmond center bridge to the north. it's calming down but keep in mind chp says to hold on. it's windy. >> great advice. it's 5:47. venezuelans continue to mourn the loss of president hugo chavez. this was the scene hours ago outside the military hospital where chavez was treated. you can see people there wiping away tears, shouting slogans of support. in other parts of the venezuelan
