plaza. to help jump start your day as you're heading out the door or maybe at the gym right now getting in a couple extra miles and watching us on the tube, that's a live look over an orange julius type of day in san francisco on this monday, july 29. this is "today in the bay." it's 5:00 right now. good morning everybody. thanks for joining us. i'm jon kelley. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. the faa is taking action in the wake of the deadly asiana airline crash. foreign pilots are now being treated differently at sfo than u.s.-based pilots. today in the bay's bob redell live near the airport in burlingame with details on the changes. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning, laura. yes, the faa is advising foreign carriers landing here at sfo to use a new type of approach when they're coming to land here.

this is after the crash of asiana 214 that the faa is now concerned about how well some foreign pilots are able to land at this airport. there are two ways you can land an airplane. you can use a visual approach and you've got the instrument approach when you rely on equipment like a glide scope to help guide you in. the problem is the glide slopes have been turned off at two of sfo's runways because of construction, including the one on the runway where asiana flight 214 tried to land earlier this month. since that crash, the faa says it has noticed an increase in the number of aborted landings at the airport including one by ava air six days ago when that taiwanese aircraft was coming in way too low like as an nah. but unlike asiana, ava was able to abort in time. the faa is now advising foreign carriers to rely on gps equipment when it comes to lining up and landing here at sfo. >> i think it's very unusual

given the fact that it's not isolated to one particular carrier, but currently involves multiple air carriers from the -- that they've classified as a foreign carrier flying into the united states. >> that glide slope equipment is scheduled to come back online at both those runways here at sfo in the second half of august. reporting live in burlingame across from the airport, bob redell, "today in the bay." also new this morning, train service interrupted in richmond overnight after a driver was thrown from the car and onto the tracks in a deadly car crash. that car was seen speeding at about 90 miles per hour on westbound interstate 580 when it crashed west of the central park on-ramp. the car veered off the road, crashing through a fence and then overturned onto the tracks. the driver pronounced dead at that scene. train service was interrupted while the tow truck removed that car. the tracks we can report right now have been cleared. police in hayward are

looking for a man who they say shot a security guard at a crowded home depot. it happened about 12:30 yesterday afternoon at the store on hess sparian boulevard close to the southland mal. the man reportedly took out a gun, shot one of the security officers and then pistol whipped the oefrmt both security guards are recovering this morning. right now we have breaking news to show you and tell you about out of mill valley where firefighters are on the scene of a shopping center fire. "today in the bay's" christie smith is live at the scene with all the latest. good morning, christie. >> reporter: good morning. this is a two-alarm fire at the strawberry village shopping center which is right off 101 in mill valley i had a chance to speak with the fire chief and he said the prior is at the evo spa which if you're driving up 101 you wouldn't see this.

this is on the back side where they're entering and doing overhaul. they got the call about 3:31 this morning and immediately came out and saw smoke, is mainly what they saw pouring out of the building. if steve can pan up there, what you see are lights there and they had to put a hook and ladder truck, possibly to vent the roof is what he's telling me and that most of the damage in the spa appears to be in a laundry room area. at this point they don't know how it started. they say it's not suspicious or anything. but they knocked it down within about 20 minutes and they believe that this caused about $50,000 worth of damage. they've been pulling out some of the burned items and telling me again this is more about laundry room storage area type. but the spa won't be opening today. they say the rest of the shopping center will. although there's a sushi restaurant that may have suffered some smoke damage. again, they're assessing everything going on. they say nothing suspicious but

at this point they still don't know exactly how it started. >> that's the story live from mill valley, christie smith, "today in the bay." >> thank you, christie. . monitoring the forecast for us today and the week, people starting their workweek, but not a bad one. a little cool out there. >> yeah. iths going to be really nice. i want to start with the wind speed to give you an idea of the wind when it comes to fire in mill valley. right now we've got calm conditions. the winds will certainly play a factor as we head through the second half of the day. keep that in mind. we have a beautiful day shaping up. thanks for waking up with us. at 5:05 on a monday, you probably want to be sleeping. the good news is you don't have to give yourself any extra time just yet for your morning drive. we are expecting thick low clouds to develop as we head throughout the morning and even coastal drizzle. right now everything is looking pretty good. 56 in oakland. at noon about 63 degrees. temperatures will struggle to climb over mostly cloudy conditions with the nice onshore flow. that means we'll see

unseasonably cool weather. livermore, 83 degrees, only 78 degrees, perfection, in concord. 70 in fremont, 71 in oakland. a little cool by the immediate water in san francisco at 58 degrees. i'll let you know when we return to summer-like levels in the next report. first let's check the drive with mike. >> if you saw the earlier backup at the bay bridge. look at the screen now. i'm showing the lights above the toll plaza. close-up here. only one red light remains. over the last ten minutes they opened all but one cash lane. there you go. no more backup. the hov lane is open so you can car pool. look at the reverse angle. the backup we saw at the toll plaza is now gone. that's great news for the morning commute. getting ready. because it will start to build probably in an hour from now. we'll looked at the system and tell you about b.a.r.t. as well. coming out of the richmond yard there's a delay. there's some electrical issues. they're having a little trouble getting those trains out.

once they do, that richmond line will be back in service as far as on time. right now b.a.r.t. is saying five to ten-minute delays because of the delays getting out of the yard itself. meanwhile the rest of the system not reporting problems. a good job across the bay as well. the by bridge approach and the maze showing a nice smooth flow. in the city we have south 101 to 280. as you can see, not a lot of problems. 280 is the slower of the two, that's only down to 59 miles per hour. it's an average so no slowing through area. back to you. mike, thanks a lot. officials in the east bay and the central valley, they want to know what commuters think about plans to expand rail service. the san joaquin regional rail commission considering running more frequent a.c.e. commuter trains between stockton and san jose and extending the service between mon tech ka and merced. there will be meetings to

iphones and other apple gadgets are mistreated. scott, this time the accusations aren't coming out of fox con. no, apple worked hard to clean that situation up. these new allegations come lower down the supply chain and a company called pegatron. apple responding to accusations by china labor watch, failure to pay over time and poor working conditions. apple responded with a lengthy statement saying in part it had already been investigating some of the group's allegations, but, quote, their late of the report contains claims that are new to us and we will investigate them immediately. our audit teams, apple says, will return to pegatron and other factories for special inspections this week. we obviously have no way of independently proving or disproving these allegations. it is worth noting, though, the apple of 2013 under tim cook is a very different apple when it comes to human rights and worker conditions.

there's a crash in san thomas. just a note there's traffic control as well. also following south 280 as you come up towards 10th street. there's a little fire going on near the on-ramp. so far just one lane blocked. oftentimes we'll find there's encampments over there. no big deal as far as the flow of traffic. starting to clear. maybe they've cleared that lane. i'll check on that as well. we'll skip over the next live shot and look at the maps. getting into san francisco, south 101 as you're approaching 280, still a report of a crash. we have one lane blocked. the last report from chp southbound out of san francisco, maybe minor slowing but not enough to trigger our sensors over the last ten minutes. that's good news here. easy flow toward the bay bridge out of san francisco and toward the bay bridge from the east bay side as well. a nice smooth flow. starting to see speeds come down a little bit because of the volume increasing on the incline. you should still only go 55 at the s curve anyway.

in the back of the building and small amount of flames. >> it's a fairly large shopping center. the rest of it will be fine and open today as usual? >> yeah. the only businesses not open today will be the spa and the sushi restaurant next door. >> reporter: so again, a large response. southern mill valley. all out here this morning. they're telling me there was about $50,000 worth of damage to this spa. back here live, talking about the large response. when we pulled into the mall off the freeway, this is basically what we saw. you'll see this on the other side as well. a number of trucks making sure everything is under control. at this point they still don't know exactly what started it. they say they don't think it was suspicious. live in mill valley, christie smith, "today in the bay." right now we have new video to show you of riots at a surfing competition in southern california.

you can see it. there were protesters out of control at huntington beach after the close of the u.s. open surfing competition. apparently this broke out after a fist fight. you can see it led to throwing bottles, tipping portable toilets over, smashing storefront windows, yanking the bikes out of there. this happened before police arrived. witnesses say police had to use teargas and non-lethal projectiles to finally clear the people out. police say they did have things under control within about an hour and a half.

"today in the bay's" bob redell is live in burlingame with details on the change. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, jon. what is considered by at least one eve asian expert to be a highly unusual move, the faa is telling foreign airlines and only foreign airlines to use gps when landing at runways 28 left and 28 right at sfo until those runway's glide slopes are back up and running. that's equipment that helps line up and land the planes which has been temporarily shut off because of construction. pilots should be able to land without it, perform a visual approach, flying by what you see out the window. the faa has lost confidence in some foreign pilots to land visually, not only because of asiana flight 214 which came in when the pilot came in too low and slow on 28 left, but also because there's been an unusually high number of aborted landings by foreign pilots since that crash.

including ava air out of taiwan which had to abort because it was coming in too low. that happened a few days ago. >> all training aprograms of al alreadies are not equal. what we do here with our legacy and regional carriers, the standards the faa sets for pilot training doesn't necessarily reflect everything that takes place in a foreign air carrier training program. >> reporter: that glide slope equipment which was turned off when asiana flight 214 crashed july 6th is supposed to be scheduled to be coming back online at sfo in both those runways on august 27, the second half of that month. reporting live in burlingame across from sfo, bob redell, today in the bay. looks pretty clear out there. a nice cool start to our morning as well. >> i like it. crisp and refreshing. >> good morning to you. we've got a good looking day shaping up.

i second the notion, a good look day. we expect plenty of low cloud cover to develop and even coastal drizzle as you make your way to work this morning so you don't need your umbrella. but you might have to use your windshield wipers. mike and i will be on top of that all morning long. it's a monday. last thing you want is something that will slow you down on your drive to work on a monday morning. we want to keep you updated. right now keep tabs on the fact that we might have thick fog developing. not expecting much to stick around. mostly clear over the greater bay area. we'll have a nice west early flow. low clouds hugging the coastline. that means beautiful day with the west early wind picking up later on. cool ocean breeze, open the windows in your home: 83 in livermore, 58 on the way in san francisco. and 75 degrees in los gatos. 70 for fremont and 71 degrees in oakland. even though it's a monday, mike has been tracking a couple things. let's check on that with him. >> one of those things is3d# better.

this is the bay bridge toll plaza, green lights across the top. we'll show you the backup as you approach. this is the volume building. that's the opposite of good news. we have the backup that's forming. but it's pretty standard as you're approaching 6:00 for those cash lanes. there you go, all lanes are open. fast track a big advantage right now. we'll look at the map as we talk about the entire maze and the approach and the richmond line for b.a.r.t. had earlier delays. five to ten minutes, problems out of the yard. now everybody is out of the yard and they're in business. no more delays reported for the b.a.r.t. system. great news, we have a 580 westbound, reports of a crash there, minor slowing around the bend and you have the western drive construction heading over toward san rafael and the rest of the north bay. we'll look at the north bey time. the speeds as far as the flow southbound, 101 through san rafael, same continuing down across the golden gate bridge. highway 37, close to 60 there. that was not the case this weekend. a very tough drive there as well. we'll give you a look outside to see how things are shaping up in the fremont area at south 880.

♪ ♪ 5:41 monday morning. mid east peace talks officially resume in washington today. israelis and palestinians have not sat down together since 2010. talks fell apart over israeli settlements. "today in the bay's" tracie potts joins us live in washington to explain why these

talks could be different. good morning. >> reporter: good morning everyone. to put it in perspective, this is really just the beginning of the beginning. it's four people, two israelis including the justice minister, two palestinians including their chief negotiator sitting down together starting tonight at the state department to figure out if they can map out a framework for these negotiations to move forward. now, this all happened after israeli agreed to release more than 100 palestinian prisoners. that had been a real sticking point. palestinians didn't even want to come to the table before that happened. but it was not a popular decision in israel. we saw protests there over the weekend. we saw protests in gaza from palestinians who don't think this is going to work. so there are some major obstacles including israeli settlements. that's long been an issue. many palestinian activists say if israel will continue to build those settlements during the negotiations, the whole thing
