the sun's starting to peek through, good morning, christina. >> hey, good morning to you. 6:04 now. what a lovely day we have in store. it is going to be one of the days where it doesn't look like or feeling more like some of the subtropical latitudes as we have some mois xture coming up from e south and colliding with the low pressure from the north and that's why we have the chance for thunderstorms today. right now mostly cloudy in emeryville and the clouds will thicken up. nice chill in the air, 56 degrees and muggy conditions as we head throughout the day today and activated your doppler radar for a good reason. how unstable this air mass is as it comes up over the higher elevations and a chance for isolated thunderstorm activity and you can see most of this right now is up in the way high elevations of the sierra nevada. so, for us, if we do see any activity, best chance between about 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. but take a look at this, we're

getting rainfall, rainfall at this hour. and those showers are actually intensifying a bit, getting some organized activity at this point through fremont and all of this in the south bay as that system of low pressure tracks to the south. here's what you can expect as you head out and about this tuesday. widespread clouds, light mountain showers to start the day. that's a live picture of san jose and you can see even overcast here at this point. stray showers by mid-day and a few isolated thunderstorms expected over the east bay hills and then by this evening, just spectacular conditions. that system of low pressure moves out and that dry air mass will start to set up and, yeah, high pressure building in and a warming trend into the weekend. enjoy the 70s for today. this is the coolest day in the extended period and then we bring on that heat. we'll talk about that coming up in just a bit. right now a traffic tuesday, here's our own mike inouye. >> because it is tuesday we're watching that heavier volume of traffic and that's what we see here at the bay bridge toll plaza. we see a little different flow as we look out here, the live

look shows you the entire toll plaza is filled in and the metering lights are on. let's look at the maps and show you an easy drive. little slowing for west 580 and the east shore freeway and we did get word of a new crash from west 80 around the area towards san pablo. everything reportedly moved very quickly to the shoulder, but it's a distraction. three vehicles there. keep that in mind. the rest of your east bay and north bay, as well. a lighter volume of traffic than we might expe for a traffic tuesday. here's what might be going an as we look at the rest of the bay. this week the holiday weekend and a lot of times the holiday weekend approaches people tend to take a little time off they "work from home" maybe what's happening over there. altamont pass holding folks up before they get to north flynn road, as well. so, that's actually a break for folks who will watch for that big burst to come towards dublin in the next few minutes, guys. >> yellow is an actual break.

>> good morning to you. closed on certain weekends during the summer, the peak of the tourist season. we took a drive this morning, it is fun, but quite the white knuckle drive. one woman nearby said she was almost hit by someone not paying attention as they were flied down crooked lombard street. so, for four weekends this summer between june 21 and july 13th lombard plus the next block up may be closed to cars and also the fourth of july it would be closed. that falls on a friday this year. the neighbors say it's the exhaust, the lines of traffic, cars trying to get through, bikes, even people on ska skateboards trying to make it down lombard streets. just a little too much. the municipal transportation agency looking at an airport. between larkin and leavenworth.

tourists not too happy about this, but this is one of their quick stops. only two minutes with a huge payoff. beautiful views once you get past that wait at the top. now, they're going to just look at this as a temporary thing, but it could lead to more closures in the future. but one thing they say for sure, no matter what they decide to do, you'll always be able to walk it. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith. >> or in your chance rollerblade it. >> that's a little risky for me. >> thanks a lot, christie. great day for skateboarding down lombard street. a live look at san jose. and a good morning to christina, as well. >> isn't that nice? it really is. we traded in the fog and so far really no may gray this month and for the mid-levels clouds and feels pretty tropical out there and looks like florida later on today.

as we have some subtropical moisture sneaking up for the south colliding with the area of low pressure from the north and as a result we're talking about thunderstorms today with those two contrasting air masses. now, let's talk about where we stand right now. temperatures are pretty comfortable out there. it's going to stay comfortable all day long and even the warmest cities across the bay area. only jumping out of the tos where we are right now and reaching into the low 70s. but here's the deal, we're still getting the lightning strikes. these are real-time lightning strikes along the sierra nevada. as we head throughout the day today and we accumulate more daytime heating with this unstable air mass overhead. the chance for thunderstorms actually gets better we're accumulating some pretty good moisture at this point. you might have to use your windshield wipers this morning as you make your way up through 880 and fremont. we'll check with mike on that moment and one of those days active weather in the bay area and then things change. let me show you your futurecast for the day. as we head through the 9:00 hour mostly in the south bay and

start to light up a touch as we head through the afternoon and evening hours. this is what is so impressive about this system and dropping snowfall today in tahoe and going to see pretty good totals, as well, in the higher elevations surrounding yosemite. above 7,000 feet. very interesting. now, as we head throughout the evening hours system heads out of here and start to see a nice, dry set up take place and temperatures are going to climb as that ridge of high pressure sets up. 64 degrees in san francisco and 72 in the south bay and 73 in the east bay getting really pretty clouds out there this morning and this is where we're headed. the sun returns in full force by tomorrow, up to 78 degrees. we'll return to the low 80s in the south bay by thursday into friday and then looking comfortable, not too hot, but just warm enough for your outdoor activities near the water as we head throughout memorial day. keep that in mind, temperatures are going to be comfortable as we head throughout memorial day, but just nice enough, just nice enough to where you can get out to the water. let's check your drive, here's

mike. >> all right, christina. we'll take you out to the roadways and we'll see what you can see over here. westbound we see a lot of traffic. it is a concern because it is traffic tuesday and this dublin flow is typically lighter than what you see on a tuesday. let me show you on the maps tri-valley and lighter flow of traffic and upper speeds and flowing right at the dublin interchange and south 680 at the bottom of your screen and this, this traffic was held up westbound 580 and an earlier stall over on the shoulder and now a crash in this backup. this is a problem coming out of the altamont pass and then easing up and a benefit for folks traveling through livermore and eastbound getting out of the area also distracted by the activity and slowing eastbound just approaching that same area and we're looking at a smoother flow for 84 and slowing and typical for the tri-valley. here's the south bay with northbound 101 and slowing there and your typical spot, but, again, little lighter than we expect at this time on a tuesday

and 87 just a tiny bit, tiniest bit coming up into downtown. over here the rest of the bay give you a wider shot and now coming into the south bay, the earlier crash we had on 17 at the summit. if you heard about it earlier, it has cleared and southbound is moving smoothly. over here a little slowing for 880 through hayward and fremont and typical spot and lighter pattern over towards the peninsula for the dumbarton and san mateo bridges. actually just starting to pick up right here north of university towards willow and san francisco and we'll get another live look outside and see how the bay bridge toll plaza is holding up. no big drama and things are moving well here and slowing coming out of the maze and off the east shore freeway. we'll send it back to you. >> all right, mike, thank you much. the website the guardian is investigating these very strange claims this morning about the world's first drinkable sunscreen. >> so strange. first, "the guardian" points out all sunscreen is drinkable.

you first, probably shouldn't drink it. what they mean is a sunscreen you're supposed to drink, if you do, molecules of the product are said to vibrate into your skin and keep you from getting burned. the telegraph and the mail posted stories about the sunscreen without really posting the obvious questions, like how it would actually work. the product has not been approved by actual dermatolog t dermatologists, but there are plenty of testimonials on the company's website. >> i would say hold off until you learn more, yes. >> just lather it on for the time being. mcdonald's testing out a new mascot for its happy meals. >> the new character's name is happy. how bad could it be? well, let's take a look. yeah. the character is supposed to encourage kids to eat healthy, it is, that is a big mouth guy. mcdop ldz now including gogurt in its happy meals. >> that's a lot of mouth.

was the school where seven students were killed. now, construction is well under way. it's expected to be completed by august, in time for the new school year and this building will have a tornado shelter, unlike the old building which did not. there's a push right now from some parents to make sure that every oklahoma school has one of those tornado shelters. believe it or not, only 60%, 60% of them are without tornado shelters. at this point. now, coming up later today there is going to be a ceremony honoring the 25 that were killing and then a groundbreaking of the moore medical center. it was ripped apart by the powerful ef-5 tornado that carved a 17 mile-long path through the community and on the ground for an unbelievable 39 minutes. and when it was all said and done, homes, businesses, schools just reduced to a pile of rubble. so, this groundbreaking will be very symbolic today. a way to honor the past while

western facing slopes surrounding san jose. but take a look at this right now. this is all the lightning we've had over the past three hours. along the sierra nevada, hundreds of real-time strikes and here in the bay area, getting a little bit more active at this point, as well. steady rainfall coming in at this point over the santa cruz mountains and organized cells developing over the east shore in fremont, so you might have to use your windshield wipers from time to time this morning but overall looking pretty good for today, for just light activity. if we see any of the thunderstorms. brief, heavy downpour certainly possible but that's isolated and confined to the higher elevations. temperatures this morning feels kind of muggy out there, but it is comfortable. 57 degrees right now in san francisco and only climb to 64 degrees with limited sunshine throughout the day today in the city up to 72 degrees in the south bay and 75 degrees is the forecasted high in the north bay. so, overall, a little breezy out there and travel cautiously in your high-profile vehicle. let's check that drive, here's mike inouye.

>> extremely ishilated showers and tim just reported that. the off ramp there but by the time we got about less than a mile away over at our station, had cleared and the dry road. there you go and that is moving nicely. 101 in san jose where traffic is flowing very nicely right there and we do have a slow down, which is just kicking in in earnest from alum rock all the way to the scene here at 680. the flow of the traffic slow for 101 and 87 is the one that seems to change over the last few. at the bottom of your screen at north 85 and saratoga reports a cone, a construction cone in lanes, as well. that will cause a little distraction until they can clear that. over here 580 westbound moves smoothly and smoothly out of the altamont pass and look at that over towards the dublin interchange and south 680 now shows the slowing into sunol. cleared all lanes and a slower drive for hayward and fremont but smooth getting over from the dumbarton and san mateo bridges. a little early for that, even on

a tuesday. we are seeing like we talked about, a different flow for this tuesday. i think this week we'll see a lighter flow because pre-holiday weekend. >> graduations. >> graduations, some people heading out of town and schools and changing their schedules and getting off. over here at the bay bridge a smoother drive down the east shore freeway. look at the bay bridge toll plaza and we have that backup, of course. >> a time of getting together in the morning. >> cheers. cheers to all of you. with coffee, of course. >> i can't believe graduations and school's getting over . >> all right, thank you, mike. well from orange and green to orange and black. we'll check in with amy g. coming up. and also let's take a live look outside. oh, yeah, that's where the guys play, but they're actually out in colorado today. as we take a live look at mccovey cove, always a beautiful sight. another live look at san francisco and the clouds moving

of his family. anybody that knows anything, please get in touch with san jose police. i'm peggy bunker, "today in the bay." >> peggy, it seems like two of them. another young man out in the street, as well. but no clue who these kids could be. >> very clear from that video somebody was the look out and stayed out from behind the driveway and the other person snuck up to the driveway. very clear from the surveillance pictures. i'm sure police are looking for two people. it's 6:48 right now. time to check the forecast. let's take a peek outside. look at that. skies overan francisco this morning. cloudy start and i kind of like a nice bay area morning like that, christina. >> it is very nice. combination of cloud cover overhead. we're getting low cloud cover at that point in combination with some hid-level clouds. and, so, overall this morning it doesn't look a lot like the bay area out there. temperatures, let me actually dive into my shirt here and pull

out my mike. got swallowed there by my shirt. temperatures this morning are looking comfortable as we head throughout the day today. oh, live tv, you got to love it. storm creating instability out there. temperatures right now mostly in the 50s. so, the bay area is going to feel a little bit like florida for today. one of those days, ladies, you don't want to spend a lot of time on your air. it's muggy and won't hold a curl as well as it would if it was dry out there. dry days at the end of the week. here's what we're working with today snowfall at this hour and coldest point of the day. 7,000 feet and above up in the sierra nevada and we're also getting some lightning strikes this morning. we're fair game for that in the bay area. as we head throughout the second half of the day and accumulate daytime heating. you can see right now showers coming in and little bit more organized at this point and mostly to the south of fremont and south of 92 and this is going to be the case as we head throughout it day today as that area of low pressure moves through the south and east. this is what you can expect as you head outdoors. for this tuesday, widespread

clouds and light mountain showers to start the day. we will keep the showers going and will be light throughout midday and then things will start to improve. we'll shift our gears, though, to chance of isolated thunderstorms as we get into this evening and a mix of sun and clouds and then tomorrow we really start up that warm up. for today, 72 degrees in the south bay and peninsula at 71 degrees. we thank you for waking up with us each and every day and tomorrow we're waking up with a little bit of wind. otherwise, good-looking day shaping up. 78 degrees. 82 by thursday. let's check your drive. hi, mike, you've had some mike issues before yourself. >> those are personal and if you want to care to us any time after 8:00, we'll discuss. over here we have issues over here southbound 101. that is a big deal. for traffic tuesday we see the heavier volume and that is kicking in and an issue for the entire bay. slower drive southbound 101 right at north san pedro and the north bay farther up towards the

top of your screen and a crash out of petaluma and slowing getting into novato. we're talking about the wind advisory for the carquinez and benicia bridges. slowing down the east shore freeway, but not as dramatic as we might expect for tuesday. more slowing, as well. typical spots around the bay. the peninsula pretty clear over there. looking towards the east bay and a new crash northbound 880 and your existing slow down from hayward and that's going to be the issue both directions are now slow through hayward north of union city. southbound through fremont you do have your typical slowing towards the dumbarton bridge and the biggest slow down coming off the dublin interchange and south 680 through pleasanton and now a bigger volume of traffic. the south bay now kicking in north 101 and really kicking in from north 87 and 85 slow show slower drive. a smooth drive, as well, across the san mateo bridge and a live look out there to show you how

things are. westbound a little haze and not a problem as far as heading over that high rise. chp says, don't worry about it. we'll send it back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. 6:52. dozens of students in the south bay will head back to school this morning, but they're not going to class. they hope to figure out why their school suddenly shut down without warning. bryman college a vocational college near the campbell border and specializes in medical and dental fields and tuition costs thousands of dollars. "today in the bay" bob redell live near that school this morning and some students are worried they're left without a lot of options and not a lot of money. >> they hope to get answers. come back here at 10:00 this morning, a few hours from now to get an explanation to what happened but they are worried given how this went down yesterday here at bryman college. that green placard and the santa clara county sheriff office

posted the green signs in every single office and classroom door warning people there was no trespassing. no trespassing signs and also without notice students were told that the school was shutting down. this was yesterday afternoon. some were in the middle of class when this happened. >> we have no idea we were in computer class, guy came in and excused our teacher and she came back in and she's like, you know what, guys, you're right, the school is being closed. >> and they were told they just had an hour to pack up and leave. a locksmith arrived to change the locks on 30 doors. would only tell us that this is a landlord/tenant dispute. one of the posted signs reads eviction restoration notice. >> what was going on, we had no idea. like this, did they not pay their rent? did they not do something right? why is it closing? >> that student right there, her name is amanda. she's trained to be a medical assistant. she wonders if bryman college

didn't pay its rent what happened to the $16,000 she spent on tuition for her eight-month program, which she is supposed to be completing in july. bryman college is run by biohealth college. they bought this campus last year from another college called everest. of course, now, it's called bryman college. bryman college did not return our request for comment. our understanding students show up here at 10:00 this morning. they will have their questions answered. of course, we will be here. reporting live here in san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> a full report at 11:00 a.m. thanks a lot, bob. also happening today, the san jose city council may vote on changing the ways that medical marijuana clubs operate. the counsel took public comment last week. there are more than 100 pot clubs operating in the city right now. today the city council will discuss regulations for those dispensaries. some of the possible changes include cutting down on the number of pot clubs to just 20 and increasing the distance

between the dispensaries and schools. alameda city council will vote tonight patrol cars with cameras to register the license plates of moving and parked vehicles. each car will have three cameras to photograph the license plate, cpc coordinants and the date and time the image was captured. as part of the plan the data will be stored for six months unless it is purged from the system. it will cost about $80,000 just to outfit the patrol cars with those cameras. and san jose city council vote today whether to recommend preserving those theaters. the century 21 theaters as a landmark. a city commission did vote earlier this month to recommend landmark status. the national park service has to look at the issue next month. the property owner shut the dome theater down in march. wants to tear it down and make a new development. new restrictions could soon be placed on tourists looking to

drive down crooked lombard street. neighbors living there are asking the city leaders to temporary block off access due to safety concerns. christie smith joins us live where the closure would only happen during certain weekends. good morning, christie. >> for a tourist, this is just part of the san francisco experience. the eight hair pin turns that make up lombard streets but maybe a little too popular. according to some of the neighbors that live nearby in the russian hill neighborhood. i spoke with one man this morning who said it's kind of part of the deal when you own a home near huge tourist spot, you'll have people around, lots of them. but some neighbors around what is called the crookedest street the line of cars, exhaust, traffic accidents just a little too much to deal with. the municipal transportation agency is considering sort of an experiment shutting down the

crooked part of the street and one more block to cars weekends between june 21 and one san francisco man riding the street who makes tourist videos sees it this way. >> it is a tough way because we want to keep our tourists happy and coming here but on the other hand they have to cue up for an hour now to come down the street and the poor people that live here that, the people who live here are, you know, inconvenienced to some degree. but then, again, that's what they signed up for. >> and we're back here live and, of course, one of the other reasons people want to see it is the beautiful view. for now, a pilot program. the board may consider later state legislation to gate lombard just to local traffic. that would be the only people who could drive down it. but whatever they decide to do, there are foot paths on both sides and you'll always be able to use those. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "today in the

bay." >> thank you, christie. 6:57. let's check your final, top stories here. today marks one year since a powerful ef-5 tornado ripped apart the town of moore, oklahoma. 25 people died and homes, businesses, two schools were demolished and some are using the one-year marker to urge the state to require tornado shelters in all schools. investigators say a cargo container came loose and hit a passenger train in russia causing it to derail and killing at least six. 45 others were hurt. officials say 15 of those injured could die. after six months of violent protests and political unrest, thailand's army this morning declared martial law. an army official told the ap the move is to provide safety for the people it denies it is the beginning of a military coup. mike and christina join us with the last check of weather and traffic. let's start out with christina. >> good-looking day. interesting day by bay area standards. plenty of cumulus clouds

overhead and maybe even some cumulus nimbus clouds as we get into the afternoon. that means thunderstorms are possible over our local hillside. and, you know, we're going to be keeping tabs on that for you and light showers rolling through the bay area and we'll show you those every 15 minutes. >> and top that. >> cumulus among us. >> cars, as well? >> stratus. meaning a dodge stratus, perhaps, i don't know. we'll see. let's look at the maps. slowing because more cars are just in general hitting the roadway and lighter flow than we typically see on a tuesday at this time. east shore freeway moves nicely and west 580 does flow off of 580 and nothing unusual as far as the patterns we will zoom in and towards 880 southbound and expect a slowing and northbound we have a crash at 92 that is heading into the slow down. >> all right, we'll check back with both of them at 7:25 every half hour we have a local news update for you. that's what's happening "today in the bay." >> back at 11:00 with an update on the school situation, as well

you can join us then. >> have a great one. test test test test test test good morning. near midair collision at one of the nation's busiest airports. two planes coming within just 400 feet of each other. >> okay, yeah, we're putting the nose down. he was real close. >> this morning the ntsb investigating what went wrong. supertuesday 2014. major races in six states today. does the tea party still wield power in the republican party? and democrat clay aiken joins us to speak out for the first time about his primary win and the tragic death of his opponent. under the microscope. this morning a judge outlines
