least five people are dead, dozens injured in three separate explosions throughout the city. you can see the damage done to several buildings. it appears all three blasts were aimed at the police. for more on the violence let's go to tracie potts who is monitoring the situation live in washington, d.c. the pictures we're seeing coming in really amazing damage. it looks like they were targeting police because the first blast happened at police headquarters, the second at a metrocation but police cars were targeted and third at a police station. apparently after that there were clashes between security forces and about 2,000 supporters of president morsi, bombs thrown, tear gas. you saw some of the aftermath. five people at least killed and dozens injured and all of this coming one day before the third

was reported after midnight. a little bit south according to police. seaside is a tourist spot. you can see the fires out of control. part of the problem gusts of wind, about 70 miles per hour. it has many flames jumping over logging roads. about 100 were involved trying to get this under control as we continue to watch, the winter wild fire. >> that wind in oregon we also have it here as well. let's join rob with the latest. >> similar to what we're seeing here, high pressure on top giving us this dry offshore breeze and area of low pressure tracking through northern california giving us high fire danger conditions for our hill tops especially. we're talking above 1,000 feet with winds gusting above 30 miles per hour.

low humidity levels and warm temperatures again. so at least through mid afternoon, elevated locations of the north bay, east bay and south bay. that's a change. the northeast winds early on. shifting out of the southeast by the afternoon, as the wind speeds drop off we should see fire danger decreasing. you can see the wind about 5 to 10 miles per hour. closer to ground level than in the hills. wind speeds at about 30 miles per hour. 40s and 30s, chilly start especially in the north bay. you'll see the numbers climb by another 35 degrees by the afternoon. so a cold start. 39 in livermore. you look at the pollen forecast you notice that the breezes, these are spring like levels. so again, not so good of our air quality. pollen count is very high for this time of year. high clouds going by today. patches on the coast.

and you'll notice as we head to the weekend temperatures starting to climb on up. probably one of the cooler tas. san francisco highs in the mid-60s. highs near 70. maybe close to a record in oakland with a high of 70 degrees. >> looking toward the bay bridge and the approach. we'll show you the incline from oakland into san francisco. head up around the new span you see those red lights stacked up moving slowly over toward treasure island. they got to keep track on the bridge moving. it's friday, there is a litter volume to keep this lighter flow area on the span. let's look back at the toll plaza. we have cash lanes backing up. even though we had terrific show a slight build. no problems out of the maze and the map will show you mild

slowing through berkeley. in the upper 50s from golden gate field to the berkeley curve. we'll continue to see more slowing throughout the next hour and a half, two hours. we'll look to the maps into san francisco. more slowing into the san francisco side. as we talked about they lighten the load with the metering lights. you approach in toward city streets. on the peninsula we have an issue from 92 into half moon bay. reports of this, i'll get a refresh on this. 92 at main street. no. waiting for the tow truck to arri arrive. this is off of the roadway bought distraction. so that will be an issue for 92 and as crews arrive. across the bay through the tri-valley, a quick look at fremont shows you southbound into the south bay.

a smooth but busier flow. >> mike, thank you. still ahead, yet another night of violence in the ukraine. protesters storming into the buildings. whel the country's president is prepared to give them.

they are also going to hit the water for the start of the mavericks surf competition. >> we have team coverage of the super bowl of surfing, meteorologist rob mayeda. let's start with bob redell who joins us live in half moon bay. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, scott and peggy. that first sheet over an hour now 8:00, some of the competitors in this year's mavericks invitational showing up at pillar point harbor. a very anxious, very excited about the possibility we could see real monster waves. you have to give credit to the organizers choosing today. there is a surf advisory. we are talking waves as big as 40 to 45 feet tall. we caught up with mark healy, professional surfer who will be competing. he is from hawaii. these waves are created by swells that were caused by a storm that just hit hawaii. he was just in hawaii. he saw those swells on the way here to our coastline and he was surprised how much energy they

had. he thinks they could make for ideal conditions in today's competition. >> for us the biggest challenge is the condition of the waves. it's almost like in a way it's almost more challenging when all of the conditions are good because you know it's like how far do you want to push yourself. no excuses. the bowl is right there staring you in the eye. it will be interesting. >> reporter: when i asked if he gets scared he says he does especially when they get in a tight spot. in those situations you just got to compartmentalize. i'm not sure i would be able to do that if i had a wall of water over knee. 24 surfers this morning. that includes mark, this is invite only. you've got surfers from santa cruz, sf and obviously hawaii, australia, brazil, south africa. those people arriving here on 36 hours notice. they expect pretty big waves.

might recall a few years ago there was a sneaker wave. a couple of them took out spectators, they are okay, but that was at the pillar point beach. they are no longer allowed on pillar point beach to see the waves that break 100 yards offshore. options are go to the oceana hotel and spa. they have a big beer garden festival, a big to-do for this event. or watch it online. they will stream it live. again 8:00 the first heat, the main final competition, the final is supposed to be around 1:30 this afternoon. >> bob redell, thank you. he was saying earlier that the oceana hotel you can't see the surfing, you can see it on television but a big party. >> right. how about that, rob, hearing about the perfect conditions. >> we're watching the wave heights when we started. the wave heights were closer to 8 feet, now up to 11 feet. we'll probably see at least 13

feet offshore. then as the wave energy approaches the coast and slows down we'll see waves rise out of the water. should get up to 20 to 30 beat the some sets again approaching that 40-foot front face on the monster waves. that's what we'll see there. we'll see cool temperatures, numbers in the mid-60s around the viewing area looking at highs right around lunch time with patches of no clouds. the weekend, though, wave heights will come down. the temperatures climbing into the 70s toward saturday and sunday. a chilly start. we're seeing 42 in san jose. the partly cloudy skies around the south bay. this is mid level moisture coming in out of the south. an upper level low which is tracking off to our north and west for today. right now 42 in san jose, 39 in livermore, 47 degrees in san francisco. the offshore winds continue to be a problem and our hilltop locations a sign we have strong

high pressure nearby. and red flag warnings extended across the larger portion of the bay area. not just the north bay but the east bay, diablo range. you saw the san jose camera, the low is going to move away from the bay area with patches of low clouds. a south wind early on the coast. changing over to an east-southeast wind for the afternoon and we'll see more high clouds out of the south as we head to this evening. but not the rain producing varieties we see in the seven-day forecast. high pressure is going to strengthen so our temperature is climbing as we head to the beginning of next week. today near 68. morgan hill near 70. mid-60s around san francisco, seeing eyes in the mid to upper 60s. to the north bay, napa 70. upper 60s and low 70s. the trend for the weekend for danville, temperatures climbing early next week and even to mid 70s in the forecast by the time

we get toward wednesday and thursday. a check of your weekend forecast around the state and beyond, temperatures in the 50s around the sierra. santa cruz, great to head out to the beach. >> great time for the board walk. you see these flashing lights. traffic is stacking up past golden gate field. they are off to the shoulder. it's a distraction but look at the approach to the bay bridge toll plaza. continuing to build, the metering lights are on, the fast track lanes are backed up. the cash lanes have eased off. most of the commuters have fast track. that's why we see that fill in early. let's look at the map because of that break we had -- the rest of the bay looking friday light. the south bay starting to build. we'll get you out there and see how things are shaping up. southbound 880 shows the speed

slowing down in the orange zone. that's the upper 40s down in toward union city out of hayward. no major issues across the bridge. once you get to the peninsula side you approach half moon bay we have reports of that tow truck. 92 at main street as it opens up and gets into half moon bay. heading over to steven mavericks. also slowing as folks head in. a lot of -- bob, plan on a slow drive there. we'll end with a shot of the north bay. southbound 101 builds but not a problem for san rafael. back to you. >> mike, thank you so much. breaking news to tell you about. in cairo three blasts have gone off. the latest explosion hit a police station near the gamous geeza pyramids. another explosion police cars
