6:46 am
about contracting ebola and that was his girl friend and two friends he went bowling with friday night. he's been back in the united states for about seven days. he'd been doing a stint with the aids group doctors without borders in new guinea in west africa. and now officials are trying to convince the public that everything should be status quo. the doctor woke um between 11 and 12:00, he developed a peefe of 103 degrees. a haz-mat crew arrived at his apartment in harlem. they dressed him up in a haz-mat suit and moved him here into bellevue hospital. the protocol has been set ups a
6:47 am
the fear of ebola spread here to the united states. health officials say nobody he came in contact with bowling should have any fear. he did express being tired, maybe fatigue, but he did not begin to get sick until the following morning and officials say that's when you need to be concerned. the centers for disease control is sending a team here to new york to watch as this patient is treated and hopefully recovers. >> thank you very much, chris. to clarify, the fever was 100.3 and initially it was reported as 103 and we know there's a big difference there.

6:49 am
right now it's a bit of a slower timing, at least the rain we thought was going to come in late today. 48 degrees, patchy fog in the north bay, 61 degrees closer to san francisco. a look inside at that time at that time park this morning. our temperatures as we get into the afternoon, high pressure is holding strong at least for most of the day today, keeping our temperatures in the 70s around san jose. and we may approach close to 80 in the warmest spots close to doun downtown san jose. tri-valley, another one of the warm spots today, out by livermore upper 70s to low 80s. we're going to have clouds on the increase. same thing for oregon versus cal coming up at levi's stadium. the winds picking up out of the south and southeast, a little
6:50 am
unusual as that storm is approaching from the west. that's where the rain is now. this is a system offshore, giving us more clouds toward sunset and eventually rain picking up after midnight tonight into tomorrow. in the meantime, warm temperatures for today and 6:00 a.m. tomorrow, that's when we think the winds will pick up out of the south and behind it cooler, unstable air, which can trigger some showers. that may be an issue for the game at 4:00. thens a t then as the game goes on, things will dry out. these are wind speeds tomorrow morning, about 25 to 30 mile-an-hour winds. yes, we will see gusts over the north bay and possibly east bay or peninsula hilltops. there is a slight chance you

6:52 am
toward walnut creek, west 24 jams up. there's a crash just past pleasant hill road there. folks still held up here. all these other folks west heading over toward arunda. they'll have the build now. for the rest of your day, your northbound route, no real drama. typical pattern. same thing for 101 from capital expressway all the way to the airport. another crash. we've been having one each morning about this time. we have this build and that's the reason you'll see more build heading up toward silicon valley. >> several people are recovering after a car slammed into a restaurant in dublin.
6:53 am
several witnesses said they heard a boom and watched the car crash through the window. >> and the little girl came out screaming. i took them to the side, i was like everything is going to be okay. >> she was parked here. she wanted to back up. she thought she was on the reverse gear, but she was on the drive gear. she wanted to stop it and push the brake, but since she was nervous, she pushed the accelerator even harder. >> seven people were rushed to the hospital, including the driver. one person was seriously hurt. police aren't saying why the driver may have gotten confused. >> 6:53 right now, home sweet home. the field prepped, the lights are on, the anticipation is certainly mounting. in just a matter of hours the giants will take the field in front of a hometown crowd for the first time this world series. ♪ on the pontoon

6:57 am
area, we check the baseball out and make sure it's the right baseball. >> reporter: the program does more than that, though. remember tim lincecum's no-hitter here at at&t park in june 2006? they have special bases and fans can bid on those bases and the proceeds go to charity, a charity program that helps bring inner city kids closer to baseball. we'll have more information on that on our web site, nbcbayarea.com. >> sounds good. >> here is the conundrum we find ourselves in. we know we need rain. we just don't want rain during game four of the world series. >> we're going to take a look at that. we could see a little bit of that maybe later on in the game. maybe we'll have the same outcome, we can only hope a
6:58 am
no-hitter coming up. we'll see clouds thickening ups a the game goes on but i think now it's game four. this is saturday that we'll have our best bet of seeing showers, warmer around the bay, cooler on the weekend. showers for game four and game five. we'll see the skies begin to clear. >> but not a washout? >> no, maybe just briefly delayed. >> so if you're lucky enough to go to the game, take a little slicker. >> or if you're lucky enough to watch the game hopefully. we have classes tonight for the kids. >> i'll watch it for you. >> there you go, i'll call laura. she'll live tweet it. if you're lucky enough to go to the game, you'll have traffic across the bay bridge. we're watching the earlier car fire that has cleared from the roadway, a crash around pleasant hill road. the rest of the commute was very smooth. watch levi's stadium, cal versus
