you're watching "today in the bay." nice, warm afternoon on tap for today, and rain though later on in the forecast. we're going to check with rob and see what the time something on that. if you're wondering what smells so good in the east bay, it is probably the eat real fast in jack london square.

turning onshore that's pushed some of the smoke from that fire that's burning her winters, you might have noticed yesterday the air quality improving. right now seeing high clouds dropping into the north bay. this is a very powerful storm system that continues to bring flood watches and warnings to western washington and damaging winds into portland. this line will continue to head to the south during the afternoon today, but we'll likely see vastly different types of weather depending on where you are. north bay, you will see increasing chances of showers later on, but in the south bay, sunshine hanging on a little longer, so we'll get the temperatures warming up again as we go through the afternoon. out at the ballpark, giants forecast, looks like upper 60s, partly cloudy skies as that game kicks off just after 1:00, and then we have the raiders versus the redskins today. increasing clouds, should see low 70s around game time, 1:25 in the afternoon. we like the raiders chance was that game. north bay, you have the chances of light rain showers for the

first half of the day. heading in the evening. notice for tomorrow morning, for the monday morning commute, it looks like we'll see some showers but the cold front that will drop through the bay area will stall out and just weaken slowly during the day. so we'll still be stuck with scattered showers into month evening. by tuesday you can see skies starting to clear as we transition away from a pattern that includes showers to one just like we saw late last week. north winds, drying conditions, and warming temperatures for the second half of the seven-day forecast. now, in terms of rainfall, it does appear that the north bay will see the most of the accumulations once again. maybe about a tenth of an inch of rain, but even portions of the central bay and south bay should get a little something out of this off and on as we go into monday. overall, the totals do not appear to look like the last saturday where we had about a half inch of rain coming down. but parts of the north bay, maybe some hilltops, may approach close to a quarter inch or the area in blue in northern sonoma county maybe a quarter inch to half inch to the far north. around the bay area, we should

see highs warmest in the south bay. southerly winds ahead of this frontal system should make for another mild afternoon with upper 70s to low sits. around the tri-valley, similar temperatures with increasing high clouds around midday, then turning mostly cloudy as we head into the evening. temperatures as warm as 80 in livermore, 82 in pleasanton. rain may initially not quite reach the ground, and as that evaporates in the air, it will cool off the temperatures. in the 60s to low 70s north of the golden gate. upper 60s to low 70s from san francisco to oakland. so we're about to see the coolest part of the workweek forecast there. monday, you can see the temperatures dropping down a bit. clearing skies on tuesday. then we have to watch out for some north winds just like we had late last week. it's going to warm things up, make for gorgeous conditions on the coast, but that could lead to some more fire danger issues later next week. >> sometimes you time things out for us, and i go maybe it's not exactly the way rob thinks. you're always right.

and my husband reminded me of this last weekend. you said about noon in san jose the skies would open up, and that's what we were doing walking home in the rain. >> i will have to start working on an app. >> always perfect rob. >> appreciate it. >> thanks. you used to shop by actually going to the store, then, of course, online shopping came around and we got things a few days after we bought them. now, waiting for a few days is so old school. now google is swooping in, same day delivery. our business and tech reporter scott budman went shopping to test the waters. >> reporter: walking into a toy store. something we've lost a bit in this shop online age of ours. in fact, if you want anything inside palo alto's toy world, full of roller skates, balls, and crazy string -- >> got to make sure it's the right size. >> reporter: you can get it delivered within hours now that google has joined online rivals amazon.com and ebay with its shopping express. same-day delivery for impulse online shopping. >> i think when you look at how

different things have evolved over time, faster and faster shipping is one of the things that customers won't explicitly tell you i need it faster, but the moment it's available, it's just a complete change in expectations. people say, wow, that was really an amazing experience. why would i ever go back. i want it today. i want it now. >> reporter: for a $5 fee you can buy what you want on the web and have it waiting for you when you get home. for toy world, it's a one click outreach program. >> it does extend our reach for new customers. because we are seeing orders across the whole bay area now. >> reporter: and it's already boosted the 83-year-old store's bottom line. >> we are already seeing more people use this service than our own website. so it's going really well for us. >> and that's only been one day. >> exactly. >> reporter: for google it's a money-making way to give customers what they want more quickly. >> part of the goal is to bring the speed of the web to local shopping. >> reporter: because sometimes you need that gum now.

you're watching "today in the bay." by now just about everyone has heard about the deal between the founders of google and nasa at moffett field. it's a deal that allows them to keep up to seven private airplanes and two helicopters on public property there. this morning the unit's steven stock takes us inside that relationship and pieces together how much taxpayers are helping

and $8.50 a gallon at local airports. then there was the trip in 2010 to coasta rica paying $3.27 a gallon. >> this may have been the greatest sweetheart deal in the history of nasa. >> reporter: jamie is president and chairman of the board at consumer watch dog, the santa monica group that first raised questions about this deal years ago. >> this is giving the keys to the nasa gas station to executives who clearly are not using it for scientific purposes when their contract spelling out that's what they have to do. >> reporter: the original agreement first signed in 2007 stipulates that google's founders could house the airplanes at moffet paying about $10,900 -- $109,000 in month. in exchange, they would allow nasa to use the planes for scientific missions. our investigation last year showed that out of more than

1,000 flights, only 155 of them were actually for science. >> it's outrageous. it's more than outrageous. it boggles the mind. >> reporter: and these fuel records show 1,200 different times h-211 bought fuel totaling $7.9 million paying well below market rates. >> they should give them money back with interest, and if there was an intentional attempt to mislead the government, i think it rises to the level of a false claim against the government. >> i hope obviously to get to the truth. >> reporter: paul asmuth runs a nonprofit in palo alto. he's asked and been denied permission to base his operations at moffett field. during the last year, they shared with us the federal fuel records. we then independently verified their accuracy with federal officials. >> well, it confirms there was definitely preferential treatment going on on a more massive scale.

>> reporter: take this airplane a 767. records show it flew to paris, cancun, switzerland twice, and that that hety three times. it's been fueled for a total of 442,000 gallons of fuel. these four gulf streams gassed up with 919,000 gallons of fuel. they flew to hawaii, scotland, st. martin, and france. >> this whole investigation is something that smells to begin with, and we want to get to the bottom of it. >> reporter: senator charles grassley of iowa first saw our investigation of this arrangement a year ago. >> what bothers me the most is what's the justification for it? it implies there's a favoritism going on. that would be long and it implies there's a waste of taxpayers' money. >> while she wouldn't answer question on camera, nasa ames

division chief e-mailed a statement saying nasa is always looking for public/private relationships. as for google, a spokesman referred us to h-211's vice president ken ambrose who declined an offer to go on camera but sent us a statement that reads in part, quote, h-211 aircraft buy only the fuel available at moffet and, quote, we pay full retail for hangar space. and, quote, between rent, capital improvements, and science flying, na sand the taxpayers are $2 million to the good. the records show a helicopter owned by ambrose, not by h-211, was refueled 138 times with 7,078 gallons of dod fuel at moffett field. >> we do not have any discretion, as long as those planes are domiciled or hangared within what is called a federal

enclave. >> reporter: that's larry stone, the assessor for santa clara county whose office sends out the tax bill for all property taxes. what he's say somethingi -- say something they pay no taxes because those planes sit at a federal facility. >> i don't know if it's fair. i think if somebody their plane within the federal enclave at moffett field and they're not paying property tax where the same plane located in san jose would be paying a property tax, no, that's not fair. >> reporter: is h-211 getting an unfair advantage? congresswoman anna eschew represents moffet in congress. last summer i asked her about the relationship. >> people in the community that care the most about what happens at the airfield have signed off on this.

why? because they are a partner with nasa ames in terms of research. eschew's staff said she was too busy to answer our questions on camera this time. >> i think this is something that's celebrated in my congressional district. this is not a favor in any way, shape, or form. >> and that was steven stock for our investigative unit. the defense department announced it would no longer sell jet fuel to h-211 and representative anna eschew's office sent us an e-mail to up date her stance. she supports the audit into the deal. if it's found the federal government was shortchanged h211 should make good on the difference. you can read the full statements on nbcbayarea.com. still ahead on "today in the bay," he's made it his job to defy death, but he's never done anything like this before. we'll show you a daredevil's attempt to fly between two mammoth mountains. and here is a view over san

francisco. an interesting view. you have fog, you have some clouds over the hilltops and also high clouds coming in towards the top of the screen. all this eventually leading up to some showers. we'll show you the timing of that in the full forecast when we come right back.

we're off to a pretty sunny start to the morning. nothing but sunshine right now. cloud-free. and this will be one of the warmer spots around the bay area as some places still have a chance at some 80-degree temperatures later on today. right now 56 degrees san francisco and san jose. morgan hill down to 52, and notice santa rosa, a little mild this morning. 58 degrees. we have more moisture coming in, more clouds, and eventually we'll see some showers, too. winds starting to pick up a little bit out of the south into fairfield. as we go through the afternoon, not only will we see increasing clouds, but especially in the north bay as that frontal boundary starts to approach moving in from the north. watch these wind speeds heading into the afternoon. we'll see the southwest winds picking up to about 15 to 20

miles per hour so the clouds will thicken up, the winds will start to increase and pick up maybe close to 20-mile-per-hour winds into napa and fairfield by 4:00 and 5:00 this evening. the rain is north of ukiah. we have had a strong weather system here pounding seattle and portland. they've had damaging wind gusts and flooding in the pacific northwest. this system though is weakening as it arrives in the north bay, so we'll get clouds out of it at times today, but notice here in the south bay we're still into the sunshine for the afternoon. so this is where you will see your 70s and 80s. north of the golden gate a few chances of showers off and on for the afternoon and into the evening. the rain line will try to drop further south into monday morning. monday morning's commute looks to be needing some windshield wipers for parts of the bay area. highest totals will be up in the north bay where we might see a quarter inch or more in some of the hilltop locations. enough to wet the ground in

parts of the central bay and south bay. most of this coming in for monday, then tuesday skies start to clear and temperatures will rebound for the second half of the week. around the bay area today, 70s and 80s across the south bay. mid-80s around morgan hill as those winds out of the south are going to make for a warm finish to the weekend for parts of the south bay. 70s and 80s in the forecast but as we move further to the north into the north bay now, you're seeing the temperatures cooling down as the clouds thicken up and we start to see a few light rain showers around santa rosa up to lakeport and ukiah. you will notice that as we go through midday. 60s and 70s around san francisco and oakland as we watch the clouds thicken up. some showers in monday. temperatures cool for the start of the week. second half of the week a different story. we're seeing the winds from the north that will clear out the skies. 70s and 80s around the inner bay starting thursday. mid to upper 80s in that seven-day forecast by next weekend. >> speaking of wind, this guy nicknamed the flying dagger.

he was trying to pull off another one of his special feats in his special wing suit. he jumped through a helicopter and flew through the air in other than china. he jumped from the eiffel tower, angel falls, and the golden gate bridge. yesterday's flight almost didn't happen though because of weather kngs. corliss pulled it off calling the flight hard core and the single gnariest thing he had done in his life. the olympic flame is now lit. later she gave the flame over to a greek skier who will carry it across greece on its way to russia. the flame leaves for russia in about seven days. sochi games begin in 132 days. can't wait. >> february, it's not that far away. >> i know. we want to thank you so much for making us part of your morning. no 5:00 and 6:00 tomorrow

because it is sunday night football night in america. a special edition of "today in the bay" follows the game and then xfinity sports sunday at 9:00. have a great day.

breaking news this morning, government by crisis, we are one step closer to a government shutdown, so how will it end? >> our message to congress is this, do not shut down the government. do not shut down the economy. pass a budget on time, pay our bills on time. >> all republicans are asking tonight is give the nation a year to study a 2500 page bill that even speaker nancy pelosi had not a clue what was in it. >> this morning, the fight and the politics behind the standoff, an exclusive interview with republican senator cruz of texas. he has elevated the fight to new
