traveled to africa got sick on the flight. the person does not have ebola and did not pose a risk to others. >> nurses across the country have been trying to figure out what kind of precautions are being taken in any neck of the woods to make sure everybody's safe. >> that's right. this stems from a health care worker contractinging ebola in dallas after treating the first person to get diagnoseded with the virus in the u.s. now, that member of the specialized team is in isolation at the dallas hospital where thomas eric duncan died last week. the woman had quote extensive contact with duncan as he became more infectious. the agency has confirmed there was a breach in protocall that led to this development that's quote deeply disturbing. now, nurses here in the bay area are demanding more protection on the job. >> we are saying here today that not one more patient, not one more health care worker or one more nurse should be infected. in this country, we have the

resources to contain and eradicate, but only as what the nurses just said with proper training. >> in a new survey by national nurses united, 2,000 nurses surveyed at 76% said their hospitals have not told them about a policy for ebola admissions and more than a third said their hospital doesn't have enough eye protection nor fluid resistant gowns. kaiser permanente said they are prepared to treat cases of ebola following national standards set by the cdc. the agent ji overnight increased its presence overnight, but still, so many questions coming up in about half an hour, we have a live report coming straight from dallas. >> everything needs to be kept up in terms of taking the precautions necessary. >> right. president obama very concerned. thank you very much. it is 5:02 now.

ten people were hurt after a ferry boat crashed into a pier in san francisco bay. it happen about 6:00 last night as the ferry was tryinging to back up. ten were treated for minor injuries. the crash had the perry out of service for a couple of hours last night. it is back in service this morning. a small community northeast of sacramento is start iing to return to normal today after fire officials list lifted orders for families in apple gait after gaining control of the fire. that fire has been burning since wednesday. in the meantime, ten structures have burned and they're looking into the kaus and police believe this is the man who started a fire that devastated a small town this summer. ronald marshall has been arrested on arson charges. he has been a person of interest throughout the investigation. that 516-acre fire destroyed almost 150 homes in the city.

dozensover other homes badly damaged. being held on a quarter million dollar bail. firefighters have the -- nearly fully contained. it's burned a little over 300 acres since tuesday. a pilot from the bay area was killed in the fire its air tanker crashed. that crash also closed highway 140, which reopened yesterday. we are starting a week anew which means perhaps new weather conditions to be monitored. >> the poet lawyer yet this morning? those are some sophisticated words. appreciate it. i've been doing a little reading this weekend, myself, so i appreciate that very much so. we're waking up nice and mild. i hope you had a great weekend and had a chance to get outdoors because everything's going to change between today and tomorrow and it's probably a change that you're anticipating. another one for you, sam, he likes those big words. 80 degrees in san francisco for

today. 81 degrees on the east shore and 87 degrees on the peninsula, so here is our first weathermaker and this one is looking pretty good. now, the models are going of going back and forth, how much rain we're going to get, who's going to get the most. i believe the north bay will pick up at least a half an inch to an inch of rain in the higher elevations. on the valley floor, probably more like a quarter to a half inch. this thing holds together though and we get a subtropical moisture tap, we could be talking about 1 to 2 inches, so right now, that's what we're waiting and watching for, but as you can see, that rain is on the way and right now, the models are bringing this thing in pretty well organized. that means we could get decent totals. overall, i think this is really going to impact you throughout your wednesday morning, but today will be warm. tomorrow, we shave off a good 15 to 20 degrees from your daytime highs and then we bring on the rain late tuesday, wednesday, so we'll tell you how much in my

next report. want to check on your drive. >> good morning to all of our toll takers. the cash lanes are all open now, no more back up. this just cleared up on the toll pl plaza approach. anywhere south of the bay bridge looks like you're pretty much a t speed or predictable flow. coming out of the at monte pass, first to the north on 680 northbound, we have that crash reported. sounds like -- the flow of traffic indicates no lanes are blocked. we just saw the yellow, so there may be more crews on scene. no injuries though from what we understand. meanwhile, we'll jump down to the south bay, where there are reports of a little fire going on. we're not sure of the details going on. south 680 at mckey, just off of the roadway. no lanes blocked, but we're going to track that. the rest of the south bay, 880 at stevens creek continuing with

the project even though there's three ramps opened. golden gate bridge drive coming across the bay, we can see these lights clearly visible. totally different than a week ago. we'll watch for changes in the weather. back to you. >> sounds good. >> here's something that might free up traffic flow happening now. a major step forward in extending bart. >> construction ends today, but even before bart trains start moving through, traffic will improve. live in san jose with a look at what's next. >> good morning. >> what a nice coincidence, i wore my construction orange today as we're doing the traffic story. the folks who live in this area have been used to seeing these orange traffic cones and they have been used to reduce traffic flow through here, but that comes toen a end today. things are going to get a little bit easier. let's show you a map of what we're talking about.

it is a stretch between lundy and flickenger where it's been narrowed down. when bart runs through this stretch of san jose, it will run through a trench below d road. as you might imagine, that requires a lot of road prep. also a street level bridge that's in the works down the road. that's so that bart can go under or over every intersection it crosses along the way. this is the first major road project in the $3 billion south bay bart extension and there are 16 miles of traffic between fremont and san jose in the works. in addition to today's reopening here on hoff setter, there are other bart related road changes you can expect. capital and mill peeds is reopening, so is a little relief there. trade zone boulevard in san jose is shifting north and reduced by one lane in each direction. that will be for a while and dixon landing road in mill peeds, all lanes are going to shift to the south with just one

lane in each direction, but you don't have to worry about that one until later in the week. now, according to valley transportation authority, this project is is chugging right along. it is on schedule. and it should start transporting people instead of just traffic cones by the fall of 2017. >> that's very good. couple of years. >> like to hear in your lifetime. >> chugging with a good verb. this morning, some heavy weights are rolling into the bay at a shot for smashing a particular world record. >> pumpkins this weigh nearly a ton. a look at the big pumpkin way off. kind of kicks off fall. look at that one. >> yeah, we should know who has the heaviest pumpkin around 11:00 this morning. some of the growers showing up early. behind me, we've got gary miller, the defending champion. he's got his beautiful atlantic

changed to 23 by the same guy. >> same guy. >> we'll have to find out. >> okay. 1985's a record here. do you think we might break 2,000? >> i don't know. the one on saturday weighed 14% heavier than it was supposed to. we need some luck. >> i have seen over the years, the flatter and more pancake looking pumpkins tend to weigh more. >> i don't know. she's a nice pumpkin and i grew four. i had one that made it to the weigh offs and it was just 1,000 pounds. my wife and i are just happy to be here. came down here with gary last year and watched the whole thing. it's much better no matter what happens. >> best of luck to you. >> thank you. >> whoever wins, they get 6 bucks a pound if they get a new world record. they get another 30,000 on top of that. >> yeah. competition as well, which is

what i think he was referring to on saturday. big weigh-in there. deciding whether they're going to take the pumpkin. >> that was in san martin and that was i think 2,036. that was different. >> yeah. >> there's a swiss guy in germany two weeks ago that did the 2,096, but haven't checked on this 2300. >> what is the world record for weight of a pumpkin? >> when i checked, nbc news said it's 2,096. john said it's 2,300. but john also, this isn't john's pumpkin. he makes up a lot of stuff. >> thank you. we're rooting for john. i think the winner is going to hoist the pumpkin above their head. >> sometimes, it's hard to find somebody to talk.

>> yeah, we're keeping the momentum going. san francisco is recommitting itself to the 2024 olympics. >> plus, a new study that looks at what nearly a third of american couples lie to each other about. no. >> just when you got used to using these during take off and landing, maybe not so much. we'll take a look, coming up.

morning commuters. i want to put this on the forefronts of your mind, especially if you've got to get the little ones to school. then to wednesday afternoon, everything starts the clear out and we're looking good. moving you forward into friday, saturday, maybe a little more rainfall. right now, it's not looking that promising, but i've seen the storm system and i wouldn't be surprised if it brings more rain. we are going to keep watching that for you. as we head through tomorrow, bring your umbrella and look at the jump. our temperatures are going to sore and then we'll cool you back off with another storm system on the way for friday. here's mike. >> look over here toward the light volume of traffic as you travel northbound in toward san francisco. going on at center. let's look over the center, you'll see some congestion, not quite the same. they don't have as extensive a

closure. you can see the flat section and high-rise and easy flow. let's look at both of these bridges. the san mateo and dunbar, westbound is your commute, no problems on the peninsula or bay shore. a pretty smooth drive. 880 dl, maybe the construction crew moved from the area, let's check on that, but nothing reported there or for the try valley. over here approaching the bay bridge, 24 and the interchange, a smooth drive, same for the north bay, no major delays. we have our live camera and we see a few more cars but no big delays or problems. that's a pleasant drive down to the golden gate bridge. >> now to an exclusive. the land at hunter's point safe for people to live on? new questions this morning. the unit obtains an internal report by the company in charge

of the radiation clean up at the naval shipyard. in the report, they simplied critical data that was false. the contractor was caught faking soil samples, claiming soil was clean when it may not have been. when crews retested, they found areas that had high levels of radiation. now, this is land slated for parks, homes and offices. >> they basically collect ed a false sample and analyzed it and then put a report out that had false results. >> can we get a commitment from your department that we can discus the report? >> yes, sir. >> tetratech declined to comment, but they said it disciplined and retrained staff members and has not had a recurrence of the false data. regulators reneged on their offer. we'll have the full investigation tonight at 11:00.

unit united airlines flight from new york got sick. the woman had flew like symptoms and told members she had recently traveleded to africa. doctors checked her and gave her the all clear. she refused further medical treatment and was not taken to a hospital. in the meantime, a nurse in dallas quarantined after she contracted ebola while treating thomas eric duncan. health officials are now trying to figure out how the policies put in place failed to protect the nurse. in ten minutes, we're live in dallas with the latest on the nurse's condition with how the other nurses are reacting to the news. a caution for anybody going to the beach today. watch out for big waves and strong currents. the warning comes after two fishermen were swept out to sea. this happened yesterday after in marin head lands. they were fishing on a rock when a wave knocked them into the ocean. one manmade it to a rock and was

able to be rescued. the other was pulled from the water, but did not survive. conditions were rough with high surf warnings in effect. >> one of the things people should be prepared for at this time of year is that sneaker waves are much more common starting now all the way through the winter. a sneaker is a much larger wave. >> definitely something to keep an eye out for. the surviving fisherman is listed in good condition. bart south bay extension hits a major milestone, bringing with it traffic relief. a key stretch of road is back open. kris sanchez life in san jose with a look at the story. good morning. >> hi there. well, we see the sign still up that bart and san jose making good progress and there's traffic now picking up. these folks may not notice much of a difference because the flow isn't that heavy, but later on morning, very happy there are three lanes now in each direction instead of the two for

the last nine months or so. this is the map of the area we're talking about. hoff stetter road between lundy and flickenjer. here's why. when bart runs through this stretch of san jose, it will run in a trench in the road either underneath the intersection or over the intersection. at this location, it will run underneath and as you might imagine, that takes a lot of road preparation. there's also a street level bridge in the works down the road and this is the first major road project in the $3 billion san jose bart extension. 16 miles of track in all south of fremont into san jose. in addition to today's reopening, there are other bart related road changes that might make you feel better. capital avenue and mill pea dus is reopening.

that's going to mean a reduction of one lane in each direction. dixon landing is going to shift to the south with just one lane in each direction, but you don't have to worry about that until this weekend. the good news is that according to the bpa, this is a massive construction project, but it is on time so far and you may be able to see additional traffic relief come the fall of 2017 when bart starts running trains through here. >> thanks a lot. >> but a delayed gratification. good news that the first lane is opening. let's check in with mike. >> good morning. >> yeah, we're looking toward the traffic flow here. i saw on our maps a little slowing for 680, so i checked that out. i don't see anything going on, but the senses are reading low, so we'll show the traffic flow here and the map for that area will where we saw that piece still there. yeah, it still shows up there,

so we'll track that, but no incidents again. meanwhile, that's hoffsetter clearing. trains aren't running yet. looking to the rest of the bay and a smooth drive. typical pattern including out of the altamont pass. 242 toward highway 4, that's the eastbound direction. that could be an issue. not a problem, the bay bridge itself, no problem for the -- toward the 10 itself, we see a clear view. no problems, no low clouds here, so so far, a clear view today unlike a week ago, but then more chan changes ahead. >> unlike tomorrow, we are going to have plenty of low cloud cover when we meet back here at this time, but you're getting an easy drive. we still have a red flag warning in places with high elevations,

the santa cruz mountains, north bay mountains as well. that's in place until 8:00 a.m. i will let you know if the national weather decides to expire. we are start iing to see that storm system track choser to the coast. that's going to bring on more moisture as of today. >> 63 degrees in san francisco. you're on your way to a good 80 degrees in the city, so much warmer than average. this is the last day and already, i've taken your temperatures down by 2 to 3 degrees from yesterday's highs. 88 degrees for the south bay. peninsula at 87. the hot spot, trivalleys, the low 90s and what a difference a day will make. so, there's a couple of things i want to point out. this is a really well organized storm system for this early in the system. you can see now it's impacted mostly canada and pacific northwest for us. we're going to see a rain starting late tomorrow, but it's these spotty clouds that indicate the cold air mass that

trailed behind and that's what's going to impact us, so today is the last day of the heat. seize the day if you're looking for the sunshine and warmth. low clouds return and then we're in for it starting tomorrow. come i'm going to send it back to you. >> thanks so much. it's 5:37. new crackdown on so-called social hosts who provide alcohol to underaged kids at house parties. the city council is expected to vote on an ordnance that would hand out fines to adults who give alcohol to kids. officials say they've seen a high number of teens getting drunk at house parties. fine for a first violation would be $1500 and would go up about $500 for each subsequent violation. this time when it comes to the latest batch of officer hopefuls. a new group of cadets start their training today with a goal of eventually obtaining a position on the force, but a source within the department says six of the 29 new cadets

there is heightened concern this morning after a second person now diagnosed with ebola here in united states. stephanie truong joins us live. a lot of this worry is coming from health care workers here in the bay area. >> absolutely. this of course followed what happened in dallas with the health care worker who contracted the disease after she helped take care of the patient who died last week. want to bring in our own jay gray, who is live in dallas this

morning. jay, of course, the question remains, what went wrong? >> reporter: at this point, a review from cdc is only fighting what they call a breach in hospital protocall. we expect to hear more from the cdc later this morning. we know that the person involved was treating extensively duncan. he was involved in dial sis and on a respirator here. that's the time when his condition took a turn for the worse and he was more infectious, but she was wearing the proper gear. she had a protective suit on. experts tell us that at times, it's getting out of protective suits that are some of the most dangerous moments occur and where some of the mistakes happen, but we expect to hear more for them later. as for the woman involved, they

say she is in stable condition. they feel very confident about their treatment plan about her prognosis, but again, they say it's something they'll continue to work on and watch very closely. now treating one of their own. >> all right, and as you said, the cdc set to give an update this morning. now the fact someone assigned to taking care of an ebola patient with protocals in place on gear and other protections has many registered nurses here in the bay area very worried. this weekend, rns with national nurses united says local hospitals aren't doing enough. they point to a new survey of 2,000 nurses nationwide and 76% said their hospital has not told them about a policy for ebola admission and more than one-third said their hospital doesn't have enough eye protection or flute resistant gones and are demanding their hospitals do more. >> not one more patient, not one

more health care worker or one more nurse should be infected. only as what the nurses just said with proper training. >> kaiser permanente said it is fully prepared to treat suspected cases of ebola. in a statement, a peshlist points to a case in august in south sacramento when a patient suspected was negative. the patient was placed in a placement room and reprovided those caring for the patient with appropriate training, which including personal protective equipment. coming up at 6:00, there are still gaps in the bay area when it comes to the baya and ebola. what a public health officer admitted. that's coming up in our next report. >> thank you very much. certainly switching gears happening today, pumpkining weighing nearly a ton. >> the 2014 world champion

pumpkin weigh off getting underway in an hour. bob, you think we're going to find a new record today? >> we're hoping. last year's record was 1985 pounds. half moon bay has yet to break that mark. the new world record was set yesterday halfway around the world in europe. a swiss man raised a pumpkin that was 2,323. don't think we're going to see this today. maybe we'll see the 2,000 pound mark. gary miller is the defending champion. he had the record so far last year. this is your entry this year and -- >> she's not quite as big. >> you're 100% certain of that? she seems pretty solid. what do you think she's going to weigh in at? >> hopefully 1600, somewhere

around in there. >> every year you guys say it's going to be 1600 everyone's surprised when it weighs more. you're not sandbagging? >> i wish i was sandbagging. but i think that's going to be a pretty good weight for her. size wise. >> how much did the drought impact your pumpkins growing this year if at all? >> well, it impacted my sizes. >> take a lot of water. >> that's right. and with a lot of people not having much water, i tried to cut back and it does affect them. obviously, you know, they're pretty thirsty. at the maximum time of growth, they're growing 30, 40, 50 pounds a day. >> and that's water. get them pulled in that much water, get them like four or five pounds because -- just

got -- think we're going to break the 2,000 pound mark? >> definitely. >> you're 100%? >> absolutely. >> yeah. we talked earlier, saying it's only going to weigh in at 1,700. >> sandbagging. >> luck to you, congratulations on last year and again, even if it's not first place, got a beautiful gourd there. if someone does set the world record here, they will receive a total of $30,000. if they don't set the world record, but they are the winner at half moon bay, they get 6 bucks a bound. swiss man yesterday, 24 hours ago, set the new world record of 2200 pounds. no one is thinking there's going to be a pumpkin that weighs that much just looking at the contenders now. >> nice milestone. >> and i'm trying not to be offended that they refer to the

big gourds as females. >> yeah. >> right. highly offensive. >> thanks a lot. >> i like the fact that no one is giving up an inch. i think it's 160. are you sure? i'm not telling you what my pumpkin weighs. >> what a competition though. they take home a lot of money. >> and referenced the drought. probably causing people concerns about making sure the water supply is good. it is also messing with the psyche of the pumpkin growers. >> i think it's messing with all of our psyche. hey, do i wash my car, take it to a car wash where they use the reclaimed water. we have to start making a few decisions based on the drought and i've got some really helpful information if you are somebody that has been impacted and i've been carrying a pretty heavy conscious when it comes to saving water and if we don't get some rain, we could be in a really bad spot.

temperatures are looking good this morning. we have rain on the way. several systems. t just what's going to happen, how much are we going to get. all i can tell you the rest of the month is looking active. there's a bit of a "pineapple express" connection as well. that's what we need to get significant totals. for today though, it's going to feel like summer. this is summer's last blast. 63 degrees in san francisco. 53 degrees in the north bay. big temperature difference because of the heat island affect in the city. tonight, temperatures are going to be really mild overnight because we're still going to be on the warm side of this system and because it's going to be kind of a hot day. 84 today in san jose. you'll notice those low clouds returning, pushing over the coastal mountains between the hours of about 5:00 and 7:00. in addition to those low clouds, we're going to start the to see high and mid level clouds as this area of low pressure tracks closer to the coast.

yeah, we're talking about rain on the way as of tomorrow. and some decent downpours. the big question mark is surrounding whether or not this is going to stay organized when it passes over the bay area. watch this. set it in motion. we get a little yellow in san francisco, but once it starts to move toward san jose, it loses that and our totals at this point look to be maybe a quarter of an inch to a half of an inch. say we get that red. say it stays organized and we hit that subtropical moisture path, we could be talking about an inch, an inch and a half of rain in san jose, so there's going to be some interesting components at work. throughout the next 48 hours, we're watching closely. as we head throughout the day, 88 degrees. look at the drop in san jose between today and tomorrow. 71 degrees. much cooler. that's sweater weather in the south bay. 72 by wednesday. then we're going to bring your number up and high pressure starts to take control. that's 88 degrees by thursday.

in the south bay and then right back down. so we call this a little bit of a roller coaster ride. a little bit of weather whiplash, mike, over to you. >> we like the weather whiplash. sounds like a ride at great america. over here, we have a slower ride because the lights are on. turned on at the bay bridge toll plaza, difficult pattern here. the lighter ones, but tougher to get to. can't get there off the east shore. that's why they're lighter. typical pattern here on our maps as well. same for dublin. no incidents i should say coming out of the altamont pass. we're seeing that pattern develop we see here before the dublin interchange. speeds below 60, that's a little early for those speeds to crop up, but dwen, just below 60 miles per hour, so no real concern. that's the first that happens around quarter to six and in the second one really hits and sticks in the morning commute.

about 6:30. we'll give you a look at the san mateo bridge, moves very nicely, a smooth flow across the west 92. but 92 at 35, just got reports from chp that someone reportedly hit a deer. in you're heading over there the next few minutes, that will be an issue, but should be clear the next half hour. back to you. >> for the crowds to go see the pumpkin weigh off. 5:52. today marks the final day of fleet week in san francisco. >> boy, fans turned out by the tens of thousands to watch the blue angels perform the spectacular maneuvers over the weekend. >> it was a triumphant return for them after the show was c canceled last year because of government cuts. beginning at 9:00 this morning.

the high school challenge band plays and that starts at 10:00 in the morning. it is going to be a good time. 5:52 on your monday. the lakers going all out pulling out all the stops against the warriors including throwing a shoe. we'll have highlights, next. >> and maybe the blue lights of police cars, a big hack at kmart coming up in business and tech.

there's been another data breach at a big store chain. kmart says it's the same sort of hack that hit other stores like dairy queen. growing pressure, not to just catch the hackers, but to change our credit card system. >> it's another reason why

america should move these chip and pin systems. europe has been using these for years. a chip creates a one-time code that's useless to hackers. in the cash register system was able to read the numbers every time a customer swiped a credit card or atm card. it would appear hackers got thousands if not millions of card numbers, no other personal information seems to have been tolen. you are not liable for those charges made to your card if you alert the bank, so one more reason to alert the bank. lots of banks offer text messaging or e-mail notification, so for instance, if you or someone else spend more than say $50, you can set it to anything on your card, you get a message. on your phone. back to you. >> a god reason to keep an eye on those bank statements. the warriors continue to row on the preseason beating the lakers 116-75. >> it's causing desperate

measures. it found the lakers doing everything in their will power to stop it. he just threw a shoe. he tried to stop a warriors fast break by tossing his shoe at the ball. he missed and the warriors keep rolling along. price got a technical foul for that. >> what is he doing? >> desperation. one of the nurses who treated the ebola patient in dallas now contracts the deadly disease. now, other nurses are concerned for their own health. >> plus, oscar pistorius is back in court waiting to find out if he'll go to prison for killing his girlfriend.

right now, ebola treads on u.s. soil. why nurses say more needs to be done to keep you safe. oscar pistorius awaits his fate. and a warning for beachgoers

as deadly waves pound the bay area coastline. they won't be as big as yesterday, but there will be some big waves out there today and our final day of warm sunshine, then temperatures crash. we bring in the drizzle. rain moves in as of tuesday night. we have a lot to go over this morning in your microclimate weather forecast. and hanging ten, more like six over here at the bay bridge toll plaza. a new crash in san jose. a live picture from san bruno mountain. you're getting ready to kick off your workweek. we're here with you. it's monday, october 13th. you are watching today in the bay. a good monday morning. thank you for joining us. >> developing right now. health officials in dallas are keeping an eye on some 50
