men. this was the arch rock overlook on the bear valley trail around 6:00 saturday night. it's an area supposed to be closed off. you can see how far the rocks fell, at least 70 feet down into the water. two other pictures show what multiple signs warns hikers of, fissureness, the notices telling people stay away. >> we heard like a huge like i would say like a splash and like a lot of like sand and rocks falling down. >> um-hum. >> and then when we came back and we saw the, like a small river was like covered in rocks and stuff. >> now the twitter picture here shows one of the helicopters trying to reach that cliff during the rescue. other hikers tried to help these two men before those choppers arrived and the trail now leading to arch rock is closed as people take a look at what happened here. but the warning is, again, that it's beautiful, there are great views but to stay away from the

by sunol and highway 84, the offramps adding to the slowdown for the tri valley. nothing dramatic for the castro valley y or southbound 880. hayward toward union city the southbound commute past the san mateo bridge. live look at the san mateo bridge itself, westbound away from us, starting to build, nothing really dramatic but you have company still at speed all the way to the peninsula, also at speed so we get back to your maps and talk about the drive toward the bay bridge, we just have your build for oakland and upper east shore freeway. westbound 80 her clues toward richmond starting to slow because of the volume and slicker roadways from san rafael registering on our road index. you're about the speed limit coming down through the curves. >> thank you, mike. a warning for commuters montague light rail station in milpitas will be closed for the next five months. that's because crews are working to help prepare for b.a.r.t.'s arrival to the south bay. time right now is 6:11. you don't have to wait for this. up next, put out that fire, the

welcome back now and good monday morning to you. hopefully you don't have a case of the mondays. we do have showers on the radar this morning. that's all that's left right now, you see that batch over oakland. i can tell you, though, we're not done. oh, no. there's a little bit more rainfall on the way today, even more tomorrow, and then that heat is going to rise into the 90s. big changes coming your way this week. we'll give you all the details and the timing in your microclimate. >> i'll say big changes. look at the forecast and also look at the roadways as 880 slows through fremont but more dramatic slowing for the tri valley in sunol.

we'll talk about that coming up. >> and here is a look at the day's top stories at 6:14 on your monday. trail collapse at point reyes killed one hiker and sent another to a hospital. the trail crumbled on saturday, sending two men 70 feet down where they were buried in rubble. >> santa clara police shot and killed a robbery suspect outside a 7 eleven convenience store. this is just one of three officer-involved shootings in the bay area in the past few days. >> the field is now open for business, the gop field for president, ted cruz announcing his candidacy today, the first high profile candidate to formally launch a campaign. a federal investigation is under way following complaints that two nissan recalls did not fix potentially deadly airbag problems. the recalls covered nearly 1 million vehicles because of air bag sensor problems in the front passenger seats. the government reports 124 complaints from people who say the problems still exist. nissan insists that it did fix

that issue. two months now after hundreds of seabirds turned up in the east coast, coated in mysterious goo. lawmakers are trying to recover the costs. two california senator also introduce legislation lows closing a hoop loophole that freezes state funding for the crisis. under turned law money is only available when fuel or oil is spilled, because lab analysis found the goo is not petroleum based wildlife rescuers cannot get recommend bursed. the bay area's air quality management district wants to ban the sale of all homes with wood burning fireplaces. in order to rent or sell homes, homeowners would have to replace the wood or fireplaces with gas ones and the ban extends to fireplaces in new homes. the new measure would take effect as early as this november. so far there is no timetable on a vote but starting this week, the district is holding public meetings to get public input. >> time is check your

microclimate forecast, as we look at the input of the experts around us, 6:16. it's downtown san jose, and as we talk about heat, finding some rain and showers right now, christina. by the end of the week you're saying it is going to be very hot. >> very warm. you can have a whole new wardrobe by the end of the week. if you want to make a fire this morning it is not illegal to burn that wood today. those fires are not easy to make. 6:17. i don't know if you ever tried but it takes a certain skill. i've got to tell you that much, whereas with the gas you turn it on. temperatures are looking comfortable as we get into this afternoon. you probably won't need a fire by the end of the week by any means because temperatures are really warm. i want to take you back through this front, as it came through the bay area, because we did get some rich moisture. take a look at this, front comes through, we get some yellow, even some orange. at this point tracking some light activity, let me zoom in and show you where it's the heaviest now. you'll find that on 80, from

emeryville all the way up through berkeley this morning. you want to travel very, very cautiously out there. mike is going to be along with all the particulars in just a moment. most of your highways are damp to start. we'll see a mix of sun and clouds for today, cloudy first, then the clouds will start to clear out as we get into the end of the day, some peeks of sun and another wave of moisture as we meet back here tomorrow morning into the afternoon hours. that is mostly confined to the north bay. temperatures mostly in the 60s. we're at 61 degrees on the peninsula. 6 as of lunch time, temperatures aren't going to climb that much between now and noon and 3:00 p.m. temps are going to be very warm, 64 degrees on the peninsula today. 65 degrees on the east shore, as we get a little bit of sunshine, not too bad out there but this is where we're mheaded up to 69 degrees by tuesday into wednesday, this is what sam was talking about, 76 degrees by wednesday, and then we'll be in the mid 80s thursday into friday, it will be very, very warm out there, so yes, a little

brief return to some summertime temperatures. we do have an interesting setup though getting into this weekend, temperature also drop back off and the chance for showers returns sunday into monday. so a little something for everybody in the next seven days. as promised here's mike and the drive. >> christina uses all of her weather skills. toward the bay bridge you get to use your braking skills as you approach the metering lights are on but ease the brakes because you might have slick roadways from overnight drizzle and rain in most parts all over the bay. we're looking at the maps and the approach, we have a slower drive coming off of 508 and 24 as well as westbound 24, just continues that ease as traffic comes out of the caldecott without a problem. there is the east shore freeway a smooth drive, slower coming down through hercules and richmond. green blotches we had light drizzle there, slicker conditions again. the green meaning wet roadways. we have damp roadways all over the bay. the earlier stall and crash northbound 880 at davis is

mostly out of the roadway. sounds like the cars are sticking out at the shoulder. whoa, i moved past one of my earlier incidents. slowing tlul the castro valley and slowing south 680 and sunol because of the slowing there. let's get you a live look at san rafael where we talked about the wet roadways. we have slicker conditions because of that glow in the lights and also some puddles, a little bit of puddling from overnight drizzle through the area as well. the slick condition is what we're warning about for folks so lower the speeds because the on and off ramps could be a factor as you make the clover leafs. 101 and 87 slower than you might expect but no crashes, that's good news. back to you. >> mike, thank you very much. happening right now a history-making road trip with no one behind the wheel. right now a driverless car is making its way cross-country, that car left san francisco yesterday and it's traveling 3,500 miles over the course of the next ten days. it will mark the first and longest coast to coast drive by an automated vehicle and while no one's actually driving, rest

slicker roadways. overnight drizzle and dampened spot leave slicker conditions. that's not a major problem for 580. 680 southbound two earlier crashes out of pleasanton sunol boulevard and highway 84 slower drives because of the two crashes on the shoulder action a distraction. once you get toward fremont you're all right 680 through the tri valley. moving toward 880, castro valley y shows slowing as well as 808 southbound through hayward and union city. that's your typical flow of traffic, typical build headed past san mateo bridge which highway 92 westbound slow or at least building up very slow on to the hayward side at the toll plaza. looking at northbound 87 in san jose, the south bay shows a typical pattern but north 87 at kurtner, third incident stretch on the shoulder and southbound 85 counter commute at camden, northbound shows the build for the volume slowing in toward

that created shock waves for what it did and did not take place. "rolling stone" magazine last year printed an article about an alleged sexual assault at a university of virginia fraternity. the article detailed a gang rape by several fraternity members in 2012. "rolling stone" eventually retracted it and no one was charged. today charlottesville police will release the results of its own investigation. the supreme court will hear arguments over whether a license plate bearing the confederate flag is protected as free speech. the state of texas refused to issue the specialty license plate. backers say that is a violation of their free speech rights. the court has to determine if the rejection of the license plate violates the first amendment. the time is 6:41 on your monday. coming up next, someone is posing as a fake cop in the south bay. what you need to know to protect yourself, coming up next. plus a violent weekend across the bay area, three police shootings in just eight hours.

snowfall. let me take you through your day part forecast. 54 degrees in the tri valley right now, we're at 61 by lunch time in san francisco, and 59 degrees meanwhile for the north bay. getting into the next couple of days, look at this, your temperatures are going to soar. we're up to 76 degrees by wednesday in the south bay. we're going to trade in the 70s for the 80s, a big jump as we head throughout wednesday into thursday and some cities are slated to hit the 90s as we head throughout thursday and friday. that will be out in the tri valley, the north bay, and of course gilroy, always fair game. san martin swrl to get to the 90s, we see mid 80s in the south bay. we always like to keep you think being that weekend. you will be able to get outdoors saturday and sunday but temperature also drop as another area of low pressure moves through, that is going to bring us pretty good chance for rain as we meet back here for the beginning of next week. so pretty good story to tell you, a little bit of rain, a little bit of heat and more rain.

"today in the bay'"''s" bob red joins us now. this stemses from a police shooting several years ago but the outcome of the case will extend well beyond the bay area. >> correct. good morning to you, sam. say you're a police officer trying to arrest someone with a mental illness who is not posing a threat to anyone but themselves. should you give them special treatment? should the americans with disabilities act apply? that is the issue facing the supreme court today, that stems from an officer-involved shooting in san francisco's mission district back in 2008, two sfpd officers shot teresa sheehan after they say she came after them with a bread knife. sheehan who is schizophrenic survived, was acquitted of

assault and then sued the city. she argues that the officers shouldn't have barged into her apartment, should have waited for backup and an officer trained in handling those kind of situations. the ninth circuit court of appeals ruled in sheehan's favor and also found that the officers violated her fourth amendment right to unreasonable search and seizure. now the city of san francisco is bringing this case to the u.s. supreme court because it disagrees over what is a "reasonable accommodation" in situations like this. sfpd it should be noted has since changed its policies. now officers handling a mental crisis are required to wait for a supervisor and officer specially trained to handle those type of situations, as long as that person is not a threat to anyone else. the officers in the '08 incident say they couldn't be sure sheehan was alone inside her apartment and couldn't guarantee she wouldn't jump out of our second story window and hurt people on the street. sam? >> thank you for that report, bob. it is 6:54 right now. 9-year-old boy is in the hospital after he fell from a school rooftop.
