the year before, that incident which sparked several fights. so the assistant principal is trying to keep the peace. students who did wear the shirts were asked to turn their shirts inside out. when they refused they were sent home. and as a result, the families filed a free speech lawsuit which has been dismissed in lower courts. judge margaret mccown wrote the ninth circuit court majority decision saying in part, it was reasonable for school officials to proceed as though the threat of a potentially violent disturbance was real. now the dissenting judge argued that free speech or speech shouldn't be banned because of how it might be perceived but again, the lower courts have not overturned the decision. we will find out today whether or not the supreme court will take up the issue. they have not recently been inclined to get involved in school district free speech disputes. in morgan hill, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> we'll see if they break precedent. 5:04. sfrab's archbishop is getting

out on the maps. off the roadway at fallon take dublin boulevard, there's not as much traffic, and it will take you past the scene as well. the slow lane is blocked until they can get the right sized tow trucks, they need one flatbed and a big rig is on the shoulder as well so we have a lot of activity going on, that's what's causing the early slowdown, before we get to the bulk of the commute heading west out of the altamont pass, see how things play out over the next ten minutes. making quick work of the crash. the last stages of clearing are toughest along the dublin interchange. slowing north through san ramon, unrelated it seems but we have that burst of traffic. no problems for the walnut creek interchange or coming off the benicia bridge or carquinez bridges. here is the north bay, san rafael down to the golden gate bridge, at speed for 101 there. the bay shore freeway moves smoothly anywhere north of the san mateo bridge and south of the dumbarton bridge looking at the south bay where we have a

happened in the frantic moments before a german wings plane crashed into the french alps. the pilot can be heard yelling for the copilot to open the cockpit door while passengers screamed. investigators think the copilot, an dreeious lubitz locked the pilot out and intentionally crashed the plane. the pilot can be heard using some type of tool to try to break down the door. 150 people died in last week's crash. in the wake of the crash australia imposed a new aviation law requiring at least two people to stay in the cockpit at all times during flights. we knew a law like this was coming and australian leaders made it official today. >> this will mean that one of of the flight attendants would come and sit in the cockpit, if one of the pilots needed to leave the flight deck for any reason. >> that law takes effect immediately. weaponsmaker lockheed martin has been picked to help south korea with the country's biggest

temperature separation usually starts to kick in, in spring and you can really see it very noticeable by the summertime months. let's talk about our shower chance for tomorrow, area of low pressure will come through, this could provide some much needed rainfall over the santa cruz mountains, we've got the best chance for that tomorrow morning. i think we'll see a few showers up in san francisco as well, that's going to come through between about midnight and 8:00 a.m., and then things start to clear out but behind that area of low pressure, cool air will remain and we'll see temperatures in the upper 60s to mid-70s just about all week long. then friday, starting to rebound a little bit into the mid-70s before our next much better chance for rain arrives by sunday, that's easter sunday. i think you'll still be able to get out there in your sunday best without the showers coming through. we're expecting that activity late in the evening hours on sunday but take a look at this, on saturday, temperatures will be nice and comfortable, they'll drop dramatically for your easter sunday down to 66 degrees in the north bay from 73 on saturday. we'll have more on your spring

and get some chance of recovery but right now, plan on the bigger build and watch 84, we'll get a little more traffic, folks trying to cut through the area as well, stanley to the 680 area as well is an option for you. over here toward the bay bridge toll plaza traffic flows smoothly. the rest of the bay no delays and just a couple of cars waiting for the cash lanes at the bay bridge toll plaza, and up in the north bay, san rafael moves smoothly southbound 101 a tiny build for your commute, no slowing novato to the golden gate bridge. back to you. >> thank you, mike. coming up next new rules to keep drivers safe crossing train tracks. plus not your usual police pursuit. why officers in l.a. gave chase after spotting this tanker truck.

is the right of students' free speech or right of the school district to try to keep the peace. five years ago the principal at live oak high school in morgan hill banned students from wearing shirts with the american flag on cinco de mayo because the principals felt the students were motivated not only by their american pride but incident with the mexican flag the year before which sparked several fights. students who did wear the shirts with the american flag were asked to turn their shirts inside out, then they refused they were sent home. as a result, families filed a free speech lawsuit which has been dismissed in lower courts. this is the majority decision in part reading "it was reasonable for school officials to proceed as though the threat of a potentially violent disturbance was real." one of the judges who had the countering opinion said that it is not fair to ban speech because of how it might be perceived by others. the supreme court of the united states may take up the issue, they may make that announcement on whether or not they'll take up the issue as early as today,

but so far, they have really stayed out of the fray when it comes to free speech and school districts. mostly up to this point. in morgan hill, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thank you very much, kris. right now it's 5:33. the public is invited to a celebration this morning to honor the life of a martinez woman killed in a gravel truck accident. dump truck toppled over and crushed lindsay combs' car last monday as she was trying to move the car. fund-raisers brought in more than $14,000 to pay for funeral expenses and fly family in from out of state. today's event will be held at the hard necessary sportsman club from 11:00 this morning to 5:00. back in december, robin williams' wife, susan, filed papers alleging some of williams' clothes and personal items had been removed from the couple's tiburon home. the three chirp call her claims despicable and untrue.

let's do it right now christina. >> good morning to you. hopefully you two had a great weekend and hopefully you did as well. temperatures are mild out there, depends where you wake up with us across the bay area. you're at 45 degrees for example in places like santa cruz and monterey. at 53 here in beautiful san jose, and 51 to start the new day in livermore. big pattern change headed your way after this afternoon. i think that's what they were talking about on the desk out there. temperatures in the mid-60s by lunch time today, and then we'll round out the day very comfortably but much warmer than average yet again on the peninsula in the south bay. peninsula today is at 70 degrees. 79 degrees for the south bay, 71 for the east shore and 80 degrees for today in wine country. so we have got a pretty high uv index. you want to make sure you bring the sunscreen, spf 30 plus, put it on the kids as well before they head off to school today if they are. some kids have spring break but with a uv index of seven means if you're exposed to the sun for

20 minutes or more you have a high risk of burning so keep that in mind now that we're getting to spring we'll continue to give you the update every time we have a high uv index. by tomorrow, that fog returns onshore flow and much cooler temperatures resulting as we get into 2:00 a.m. on tuesday, notice on your futurecast some light showers coming in, and that will continue until about 8:00 a.m., then everything clears out but here is the deal. we've got a much better chance for some shower activity for your easter sunday. i'll still be able to get you to church and outdoors, if that's what you like to do, maybe some sunday brunch coming up in my next report we'll give you the timing to are that. stick around if you can. if not here's mike and an update. do we have any clearing out there in the tri valley? >> it's much better situation overall, christina, but when it's better for some not as good for others. the traffic flow christina is referring to the crash we had, for a period of time was blocking four out of the six lanes and down to one lane which caused this big backup, west 580 approaching the dublin

interchange, and folks familiar know this sign. as traffic starts to clear all lanes, we have flashing lights right there from time to time, those flashing lights are a bit of a distraction but that unleashes traffic through the dublin interchange, stick with me, folks, up to dublin grade up and over the hill toward castro valley. as we look at the traffic flow, it was jammed back to fallon, i was telling folks to use dublin boulevard. stick it out on the freeway, because there is traffic recovering and it's much better than the red shows, it's more than 20 miles per hour from the last shot we showed. that backup moving over toward the dublin side of the dublin interchange toward castro valley and all this traffic coming out of theality month pass will be more slowing, more folks might try 84 as they ket through today. coup enthat in mind. the rest of the bay moves smoothly, typical build out of antioch for highway 4, no drama for the maze or toward the bay bridge toll plaza, looking toward the north bay an easy flow of traffic. the south bay at speeds so we'll look at the bay bridge toll

about what they might come with. >> the alternative is also dangerous, but i'm trying to keep my powder dry. >> reporter: lawmakers are threatening more sanctions. >> the sanctions are going to come and come quick. >> reporter: that's to prevent this deal. even though they have until tomorrow that deadline can be moved if both sides agree they have until june to work out the details. also new this morning, iran is qulaming that the u.s. and its air strikes in iraq has killed two of its advisers there, heightening tensions between the two countries as they try to work out an important nuclear deal. >> violence across the region there, ratcheting up right now. thank you, tracie from washington, d.c. it is 5:44. investigators hope they can soon talk to the parents of the co-pilot who crashed the germanwings plane into the alps last week. they are keeping their distance
