good morning. looking live at the golden gate bridge, it is a very gray start to the day, and it's going to be gray and chilly for the duration. thanks so much for joining us. i'm kris sanchez in for vicki nguyen. it is beta breakers day where runners wear kcostumes. >> i'm all for beta breakers day, but it's not the best day to run a race. you might need hot chocolate or coffee to warm you up.

it's not just the marine layer, it's actually a storm system off the coastline that's going to keep the gray skies in place today. not a lot of sunshine coming our way even for the inland valleys, and there's kind of a winter-like pattern shaping up across the bay this week with two storm systems expecting to slam into the bay area, bringing some rain. kind of unusual, but we will take it. you notice the satellite is fired up. we do have showers off the coastline. those showers are expected to just stay across the open waters this morning. later on this afternoon, just mainly cloudy for most of us. a little bit of drizzle on the santa cruz mountains and north bay mountains. need to definitely dress in layers today. even though we need the rain, it's a really bad drought. we have another chance of rain tomorrow and thursday. >> we need an excuse to have a lazy day on the couch with a movie. we'll take it. we are just one hour away from the start of the world's wackiest race. tens of thousands of racers,

runners, watchers and police officers are getting ready for beta breakers this morning. nearly 50,000 people are signed up for that 12k race, and of course costumes and groups running in costumes will be part of the race. the same as last year, alcohol is not allowed on the course. there will be heavy security to make sure the race is safe for everyone. >> we have over 200 private security guards that will be out on the course. they will make sure everyone stays safe. barricade lines, fencing, you name it, we have everything in place that will make this a safe event for everyone. >> here's one thing that is different this year. organizers say they added 25% more port-a-potties along the route which will make neighbors feel very happy. here's a look at the course map in case you're in the party or you want to avoid it

altogether. it takes off at 8:00 this morning near embarcadero and there will be several roads closed along the route. you can get that information on nbcbayarea.com. a developing story out of the east bay where a police standoff involving a hostage is over this morning, but only after an intense chase that spanned dozens of miles. police say an armed man walked into a safeway store on deer valley road and antioch right at the dinner hour, 6:15 or so, and demanded money. he got that money and then stole a car. they pursued the subject for 40 miles to oakland where the gunman got out of his car, ran into an apartment on pena drive and took a person hostage. that lasted until just after 11:00 last night when police say the hostage managed to escape. then oakland police swat team

went in and rarrested that suspect. the fbi is now involved in that investigation. to the south bay where a young girl fought off a man who tried to kidnap her in broad daylight as she walked her dog in a million-dollar neighborhood. the attempted abduction happened at 10:00 in the morning near may son court and campbell. the girl was in the area when a man pulled up and asked her for directions. then she says he tried to grab her. the girl screamed and fought the man off, and eventually the man did drive away. police say this is a sketch of that suspect as described by the girl. she says he is asian or hispanic, in his mid-30s, about 5'7" with a medium build. >> i'm speechless. i can't believe that it happened over here in my neighborhood. >> i just can't believe it. this is a good neighborhood. >> this is surveillance video from a nearby home showing that suspect's car passing by. police say he was driving an

older model four-door sedan, possibly silver in color. to decision 2016 now and the controversy brewing in the race for barbara boxer's senate seat. a democratic candidate is under fire after mimicking an indian war cry. it happened during the gathering of indian american caucus at the state democratic convention this weekend. caught on camera, candidate loretta sanchez got an invitation from someone in the asian american community. >> i was shocked and appalled that she would make comments about indians that way. >> many found her comment sensitive. her opponent kamala harris said she was shocked by her behavior. crooks took a south bay's livelihood or his ability to

make it. george bravo says this video shows his construction trailer being driven away from a construction site in san jose on mccarthur avenue near bascom avenue. he was working on a kitchen remodel when someone stole his trailer with about $16,000 of equipment inside. >> the trailer was stolen directly out of their driveway. everything in the trailer is everything i have to do business, make money, provide food for my family. >> bravo says sheriff's deputies told him several other similar crimes have been reported recently. and now to the nbc bay area follow-up on the abused dog found in a homeless camp in san francisco. mad did i's fu m maddy's fund being added to. the dog was beaten and burned.

maximilian was missing teeth, the foot pads on his feet and his nails. maximilian is getting emergency care for his life-threatening injuries. an ivy league school is accused of discriminating against asian american students, harvard university being sued by several asian american groups. they claim harvard discriminates against asian american students by setting a higher bar for admissions for them. meanwhile, the college is fighting back saying it is, quote, fully compliant with federal law. harvard adds that the number of asian american students admitted as increased from 17% to 21% over the past decade. san francisco's embattled arch byrbishop got a show of sut from the catholic community. there was a sea of family picnics, games and live entertainment, and through it all people also wrote messages

of appreciation to archbishop salvador cordileone. he has been criticized for his view on sexual abstinence and homosexuality. >> i think his views have been misunderstood, misinterpreted by people, and i hope that that will change, and that as time goes on, what he is doing will be understood and appreciated. >> you may notice a lot of blue in the crowd there. attendees wore that color to show their solidarity and support for the archbishop. still ahead on "today in the bay," a team leader of isis is still in reign in syria. we'll show you how they were able to carry out that mission from which they did not know when they would return. also something may have hit that amtrak train right before it sped up and derailed.

things revealed about that deadly crash.

it is 7:10 on a gray and gloomy start to the day on "today in the bay." the white house says a u.s. delta force commando was behind a daring raid in syria killing an isis leader. they took off from northern iraq and flew into isis-controlled territory in eastern syria which is hostile territory. this is only the second time that u.s. operation forces that carried out a mission in syria territory from the ground. they used black hawk helicopters to get in and get out. the target was a top money man who managed isis oil and gas income and was personally close to the main isis leader. >> the fact that the united

states was willing to mount a capture mission to grab him shows that he was a really important person in the infrastructure itself. >> the commandos were also able to take into custody his wife, and they also freed a woman who was being held captive. new details about that train derailment in philadelphia on tuesday night that killed eight people and injured more than 200 others. federal regulators are calling on amtrak for safety measures along the busiest route. that's because there may be a new factor in the crash as regulators are asking for new technology to control train speed and analyze curves on the track. investigators are saying the train may have been hit by some sort of projectile before it derailed. two other trains were also hit on the same stretch just before the deadly crash. the engineer is saying he doesn't know what happened before the train derailed.

a close friend of 20 years talked to bostian while he was in the hospital. >> his memory is fuzzy. he's having trouble remembering things. >> meanwhile, there was a memorial for three people who were killed. home security still ahead on "today in the bay." >> security really is an afterthought. the devices are hot items but they might be inviting hackers into our homes. we watch as someone breaks into a home security camera in just minutes. this morning we're waking up to gray skies across the bay area. gray skies will continue across the area and even light precipitation in the form of rain monday and tuesday. we're back to break that down, after this. 

it is sunday. the gloominess will continue but hopeful for blue skies later. the apple watch reportedly lacks an important feature that would help to prevent theft. unlike apple's other devices the watch does not have that activation lock which means anyone could completely wipe the device without knowing the apple id and password associated with it. apple has not yet commented as of this morning. the security cams and nanny cams in your house? not as secure as you think. hackers can access your cameras in just a matter of moments. >> to find the connections you need to tap into it. >> reporter: colby moore is hacking into a home camera.

>> this is the part where i initially break into the camera. >> reporter: and it took him all of two minutes. >> you can see that my computer is now interfaced with this device. >> reporter: cameras, thermostats, baby monitors. they're all going high tech. we call it the internet of things, but more as the engineer of security company synax showed us how easy it is to break into just about anything in your house. he says for most of these devices, security is not included. >> reporter: the flaws in the present system may allow a hacker to compromise the system, to watch you, figure out your pattern in life, watch your children. >> reporter: a wake-up call for gadget lovers and a warning, be careful when you bring devices into your home. scott budman, nbc bay area news. meteorologist anthony

slaughter is here and wearing green. we're seeing green on the radar. >> i'm dressing for the weather. i'm excited about this rain. we actually don't get rain like this in may. but the gray skies we're seeing is indicative of showers headed our way tomorrow through tuesday and thursday as well. we're right in the middle of a winter pattern here across the bay area. you'll notice the green on the radar. yes, those are light showers falling through the santa cruz mountains. a lot of this activity is very light and it's pre-frontal precipitati precipitation. if you know anything about that, it means basically right before the front and it's not very heavy. what we're going to be finding as we move through the day today, most of what falls to the ground will evaporate, but if you live in the coastal mountains, you'll see some light rain today. for us in the valley, we'll see showers late tomorrow morning. we're supposed to get showers from the north bay to the south bay. that's the general trend today. not a whole lot of sunshine

coming our way. temperatures are very chilly, about 10 degrees below where we should be. 66 for the south bay, 64 for pet nins l-- the peninsula. fog and drizzle at the coastline, so about 8:00 expect that to be the general trend. even as we head into the afternoon hours, not going to see a whole lot of sunshine, but i think if we see anything in terms of sunshine and blue skies, it would come in the afternoon around 1:00 or 2:00 and right toward sunset. we have a series of storms throughout the pacific. the first one right at our doorstep today. expect to see light showers as soon as tomorrow. the next one is not going to arrive until thursday. let's talk about this one here. this is what i was talking about. you can see the pre-frontal precipitation out ahead of the front which is still about 200 miles from the coastline. not expecting to see any rain across the south bay area, but if you're doing any traveling to the sierra, to the central

valley, bakersfield, fresno, you may run into some showers and thunderstorms. tomorrow morning we'll see drizzle at the coastline and maybe even some light showers in the morning. during the afternoon hours, we'll dry out, we'll see some sunshine. but tuesday as this system kind of makes its way out of the bay area, we'll still see light showers on tuesday morning. it will be damp during the work week. make some extra time for yourself during that commute. not a whole lot of rain expected, but it will definitely be enough to put out that fire. talk about a tenth of an inch. any time you get over a tenth of an inch this time of year, that's record rainfall. we're happy about it. it doesn't seem like a lot but in the grand scheme of things is really great news. the front moves out of here by about wednesday, so we'll see sunshine later in the week. another fast-moving system will move in on thursday, and that will keep the showers in place

as they move out friday. maybe not the summer pattern we want to see as we move toward june, but you know what we say in the bay area, june bloom. a little bit of sunshine for the afternoon, but you'll really notice that gray, cool, cloudy condition right along the coastline. san francisco, 60s all week long, and then some showers not only for monday but also for thursday as well. kris, back to you. >> thank you very much, anthony. still ahead on "today in the bay," a little girl loses her battle with a rare type of cancer, but still helps with the fight. >> jennifer is still fighting. jennifer will be around for finding a cure. >> a selfless act from her parents might just save other lives as part of our bay area proud series. (music)

hey! let me help with that. oh, thank you! (music) introducing the one-and-only volkswagen golf sportwagen. the sportier utility vehicle. out of a terrible situation,

there is now a glimmer of hope. the death of a six-year-old girl who died from a rare type of brain tumor was devastating for her family, but because of her selfless act, there is good news to report in the fight against the cancer that killed her. garvin thomas has been following this story for more than a year. >> this couple graciously allowed us into their home in february at the end of their daughter's life. they explained why they were making arrangements to donate jennifer's tumor after her death. they wanted to give others the hope they didn't have. well, it looks like they're starting to get their wish. it had been more than a year since the brain tumor called dipg took jennifer lynn kranz's life. still, make no mistake, just because jennifer lost her battle with cancer doesn't mean she has stopped fighting it. in fact, you are watching her do

it right now. these stem cells being worked on in a stanford lab are ones grown from jennifer's dipg tumor. the tumor libby and tony kranz offered up for donation in the hopes that one day it would prevent others from having to go through what they did. >> there is so much bad behind it, just taking one little piece of good is huge, and if you can help somebody else, you got to do it. >> reporter: it is a promise they made, and just 14 months later, appear to be delivering on. >> the headlines in the research -- >> dr. michelle mongie is assistant professor at stanford. she said dipg has been difficult to study in the lab because cultures of it just didn't exist. in fact, the stem cell line she created from jennifer's tumor is just one of 16 existing in the

world. >> each one as a result of an incredible donation from families that are facing one of the most difficult moments of their lives and are already thinking about helping other children. >> reporter: and it is using those lives that dr. mongie has discovered an existing drug that appeared in the lab to slow the growth of dipg tumor, giving the promise of extending a child's life by as much as six months. and while not a cure, a step in the right direction thanks to those who gave and are still giving. >> jennifer is still fighting. jennifer will be around for find ag cu -- finding a cure. she will be part of it. >> believe it or not, donating jennifer's tumor is just part of what the kranzes have done. they started a foundation called pediatric cancer. they have raised money, some of

which will go to dr. mongie for research on jennifer's tumor. still ahead on "today in the bay," a group of california high school students may not be able to graduate. how one student was able to change grades for months und undetected. there is a lot of radiation in the ground. >> reporter: thousands of homes are planned but the cleanup of radiation can't be trusted. what we have uncovered and what it means for the new homes and offices on that site. together. well mainly in traffic. i'm serious. we've been together, what, a super long time. true. and at first it was all business, you know, i'd take him here, i'd take him there. everywhere. and over the years, we've really bonded. sure. why else would you always buy me chevron with techron? 'cause we need gas. i think it's more than that. i think that you care about me.

you're a good friend. best friends? um, uh, yes, best friends. yeah. [ male announcer ] your car takes care of you. care for it. chevron with techron. care for your car. ow.

good morning to you. looking live from the chopper

over the starting point of beta breakers, or at least part of it. look how many people. there are supposed to be about 50,000 people, quite of few of them. it's good to have you with us this morning. i'm kris sanchez along with meteorologist anthony slaughter. we did see a lot of clothing in that picture. it looked like a lot of people were wearing clothing. >> and rightfully so. it's chilly this morning. we're not talking about a lot of sunshine this afternoon, maybe a few peeks. you get a lot of low clouds there, and the cloudy skies will be with us for most of the day. we actually have a system on the coastline right now and that's keeping the gray skies in place. it's going to stay chilly this upcoming week. we have two storm cells impacting the bay area. that's why we have green on the rad radar. showers are along the coastline,

but nothing is reaching the ground. it's cloudy and will stay that way most of the day. we'll actually see showers for most of the day on tuesday morning and a bigger system later in the day. the great thing about all of this, it is the season for beta breakers, and whether you're going to have cold or not, it's a lot of fun. you'll have to check out my pictures on twitter. we're about 30 minutes from the start of beta breakers. we don't have to tell you it's one of the world's wac kir krrw races. police officers and private security guards are getting ready for beta breakers. today nearly 50,000 people signed up for that 12k foot race. of course, there will be the usual array of costumes, probably some degree of nudity, also people running in conga

lines. this year, as last year, drinking and illegal substances are not allowed to make sure the event stays safe for everyone. >> we'll have 200 security guards making sure everyone stays safe within the confines of the course there. barricades, fencing, you name it, we have everything in place that will make this a safe event for everyone. >> in years past, some of the neighbors in the area said people used their front yards like bathrooms, and that's why organizers added 25% more port-a-potties along the route this year. runners take off at 8:00 near embarcadero. several closures in that area as well. if you want to stay out of traffic or you want to join the party, go to nbcbayarea.com and download the map.

it is a sparkling and expensive piece of land, but the question is, is it toxic? we have new revelations about hunters point in san francisco. thousands of homes are supposed to be built there, but now the state health department is concerned about the safety of that land. investigative reporter vicky nguyen is talking about it. >> reporter: there is a question of a huge area of hunters point. we first told you about the company in charge, texatech, testing for radiation and getting rid of it. now the state department says that work can't be trusted. if you've lived in hunters point as long as espinola jackson, you would remember when they supported the war effort. ever since she's wondered how the navy would deal with the shipyard's toxic legacy.

>> tlas lhere is a lot of radia in the ground, there is a lot of toxins in the ground. >> remnants of the warships and radiation experiments on animals. for 20 years, jackson has watched changes at the 80-acre shipyard. it's poised to become one of the largest retail and housing developments in the bay area. but jackson says she doesn't trust the cleanup. >> if i had a dog, i wouldn't take my dog out there on that site. >> reporter: now the state health department is questioning the cleanup, too. the investigative unit had the same e-mails between state regulators and the navy, revealing an unprecedented move. last fall the state suspended nearly two dozen release investigations on hunters point. those are the state approvals that any radiation that may have existed on the site had been cleaned up, doesn't pose a health risk and can be released for redevelopment. the state originally granted the release of 22 buildings on these four areas of the shipyard,

starting in 2009. but last summer, the navy discovered that radiation tests were not performed correctly. according to e-mails from the state health department, regulators pulled the approvals after the uncovering of new data revealed that radiological scans were collected too fast. >> if the scans are done too quickly, then those release criteria cannot be met. >> reporter: tracy eikenberry is a health regulator. they perform scans on contaminated land across the country. >> it gets more and more difficult the faster a scan is made, more and more difficult to detect any radioactivity that may be left behind. >> reporter: according to navy documents, some of the buildings in question house the navy's radiological defense lab and contain elevated levels of radium and cesium. those are elements that have been linked to cancer if people

are exposed to them in high levels over time. so who is responsible? navy contractor, tetra tech. the same company we first told you about last may. that's when radio logical specialists spoke out. they said they were fired after asking about performing tests on safety to save money. >> it was the most egregious violation of standard protocol i've ever encountered. >> i was worried about the wrong that's being done to the city of san francisco and the places it was shipped out to. >> reporter: tetra tech admitted to the mishandling of soil samples and submitting false information to the navy. for 12 years, san francisco science professor raymond conklin served on the restoration advisory board. he has long questioned the

condition of the shipyard and the radioactivity testing by tetra tech. >> why do you keep going back to someone who is cutting corners, not following proper protocol, trying to get this job done as quickly as possible, because i understand motivation makes profit. but we're dealing with radiation. >> reporter: tompkins wants an independent third party to monitor the navy's contractors, and he's not alone. in an e-mail to the navy in february, another state regulator wrote about the chronic issue of radiation contractors making errors and suggested in-site personnel, asking whether tetra tech's license would be suspended or revoked. >> if there are continuance violations, why would you allow them to have the privilege to make this huge profit? >> reporter: according to the company's website, tetra tech has won $300 million in navy

contracts to clean up testing sites. none of them would speak to us on camera. in written response, the navy has determined there is no radiological contamination in the 23 buildings that poses an unacceptable risk. the state department wrote that it's broadly concerned about all the buildings affected by this scan issue. now the navy is negotiating just how much testing tetra tech needs to do to ensure the 22 buildings have been properly scanned and yet they're safe. >> who is going to be in charge of the additional testing? are they going to be held accountable? are they paying for this? the taxpayers don't need this. >> reporter: they haven't said how much more surveys would cost or who will be paying for them. meanwhile, tetra tech remains on the job. why the navy keeps working with this company is a question we will keep asking.

if you have a question for the investigative unit, e-mail us. he was hacking grades and he was arrested for hacking into the dixon high school computer system and changing grades. the dixon high school superintendent said he changed scores, affecting 32 other students. officials say there were at least 200 grade changes made since january. now it's up to the district attorney to decide what charges he will face. >> an unauthorized alteration of a data base. that is a felony in california punish believe by imprisonment and a fine. >> he was released on $50,000 bail. the school district is deciding whether the grade changes will disqualify some seniors from

graduation. much more ahead on "today in the bay." the giants welcome back a familiar face in cincinnati, but it was another guy who stole the show. highlights in a minute.

this is a live look at the site of game one of the western conference finals on tuesday. the winner will play today against the clippers and the rockets. the giants in cincinnati taking on the reds this weekend, and they were happy to see an old friend make his return debut. hunter pence is back in the lineup after destroying his forearm. it is a welcome site for the g-men. san francisco takes a 5-0 lead into the fifth. he smashes that grand slam to

right. the guys win 11-2. the a's and the white sox starting well in oakland. he slams a two-run homer to right center. but the green and gold couldn't make a stand. chicago goes on to score four unanswered runs and hangs on to beat oakland 4-3. to baltimore now for a wet and muddy day for the preakness. you saw it here in the nbc bay area and now we have a challenge for the triple crown. american pharoah wins this race. he becomes the first triple crown winner since 1978, and the next competition is june 6. loretta sanchez is known as

a favorite. but a lesser known candidate stakes her claim. next.

since barbara boxer announced her retirement in january, kamala harris has come out as the best contender. but last week, loretta sanchez stepped up. this is not a woman who is well known in the bay area as yet as we saw earlier in the newscast. we're getting our first glimpse of her on a national level because of a gaffe she made to indian americans. >> the gaffe she made was talking about indians running around chasing cowboys. where do you stop? her whole team was saying, stop, stop, stop. no excuse. she's been in congress for 18

years. but these kind of gaffes happen, and when they do, you have to have damage control immediately. the good news for her is it's early in the campaign. you don't want to make that a first impression, but you have plenty of time to catch up. on the other hand you say, what do we know about this person, and she's got an interesting record of being a little bit on the quirky side. we'll have to see if she can control that as she gets into a more campaign mode. >> kamala harris is one of our politicians that we know. she's in santa ana down in orange county. some said this might be a game changer. do you think it is? >> with all due respect to what happened the other day, it could be a game changer. kamala harris quickly seized the whole thing. she declared her candidacy. she hoped to keep others from running by getting in there first and fast. it worked, at least for a while,

anyway. but two little known republicans we know, rocky chavez of oceanside, former state chair tom velcaro, they announced their candidacies, but barely brought a yawn from anyone. loretta sanchez is another story, and harris knows it. >> she's been in office for 18 years, she's not a rookie, but we don't know her up here. what should we know about her, and does she really pose a threat? >> there are several things to think about when we talk about sanchez. while not recognized here, she's well known in southern california. absolutely well known for her 18 years in the house. that's the part of the state that's very rich in voters. we know this. second, latina sanchez, if we can call her that, may connect with an ethnic group will bond

with voters. most democrats could supply support to harris. and like harris, sanchez is a woman. that doesn't make her different from harris, but it could neutralize the efforts making her a competitive female candidate. the one big advantage could be offset by the fact that the other has been done. >> you talked about one being from northern california, one being from southern california. what are the other similarities? >> no, democrats, like you said, go to the left side of the political spectrum, no question.

still, there are some differences that no doubt will emerge during the campaign. as a member of congress, sanchez claims she knows how the federal government works. harris has said, you know, i've had pretty good success as attorney general, and we know that. voters are paying close attention to that. on policy issues, kind of interesting. sanchez fears closer in the center by often voting on those bluedog. harris, we know she's a darling of the state's liberal. right now, perhaps the greatest difference between these woman, a 4-1 advantage over the most recent reporting period. that was just last march. so yeah, there are some differences for both democrats in question. >> we'll have to see how loretta sanchez recovers from defending a good group of people. not just the people she offended

but people offended by the offense. you know what i mean? >> if you're offending one, you're offending all the groups. that's why she's got to do a little bit of a campaign management here. >> it will be an interesting couple of days for her and those of us who like to watch that. nice to see you, larry, and we'll be right back.

welcome back now. 7:53 the time here on a sunday morning. i want to start with radar because we actually have some

showers being detected by our radar. you can see that in the north mountains to the santa cruz mountains. mostly a drizzle or mist, if you will, but you'll notice not only do we have that shower activity there, but also the pacific waters. that's a strong system headed our way. it's expected to bring some showers for all of us, at least some light stuff, tomorrow morning and tuesday morning for that commute. right now we're just cloudy. no rain for bathe bay area. if you live in the coastal mountains, you may see some light rain this morning. temperatures are going to be chilly. 60 degrees in san francisco for your high today, 66 for the tri-valley and gray skies will be with us all day long from the north bay to the south bay. temperatures, again, will be about 10 degrees below where they should be for this time of year. it's all because of our jet stream. it's taken a big dip to the south. we're usually on the warm side of the jet stream where we have high pressure, but we have a series of storm systems expected to move through this upcoming

week. this one will move thursday, but the one at our doorstep is already bringing cloud cover, and it's expected to be there through tuesday and that will bring the showers i told you about. a lot of this stuff won't reach the ground, but as this front gets closer, today we'll see showers develop in the northern part of the state, really toward ukiah, and snow expected above 5,000 feet. the storm system will move through monday. monday we'll see showers to start the day, we'll see some afternoon sunshine, but as the system moves out tuesday, expect the morning trends, afternoon drizzle and then sun. as we said in the last report, you get about a tenth of an inch and you're talking about record rainfall in oakland where you get about .12 of an inch all week long. any little bit of shower we see

could go down in the dift books. we'll be tracking through. that will bring the rain at least for the morning hours, and the second one that moves through for thursday, that's going to keep a better chance of showers in the forecast and then it moves out of here on friday. overall the general trend as we move through the week, temperatures stay below average for the inland valley, san jose and livermore. at the coastline that's where you'll notice cooling conditions, because san francisco is going to be in the 50s each and every day, climbing to near 60 by the afternoon. and then as we move toward thursday, there will be a better chance of showers. i think tomorrow and tuesday, light stuff. nothing really to be alarmed about. you'll need the windshield wipers for the morning hours. thursday is where i think you'll need the morning hours. one father is seething after having to sit next to someone

else other than his daughter. they told him $80 or good luck trading seats. he paid up and then found out the flight was nearly empty. he wrote about it on his blog and delta later apologized. >> they said it was against their policy and the ticket agent should have changed my seat then and there, no questions asked. i don't think it's an unreasonable expectation to put a parent and child together. >> consumer advocates said there is no rule in the industry to keep children with their parents, but delta tries not to make it their policy. i tell you, no other passenger wants to sit next to your kids, either. it's too much responsibility. let them sit together. we want to thank you for letting us be a part of your morning. we'll have more news at 4:00,

6:00, and good luck to beta breakers as they get ready to take off in about 2 minutes 57 seconds. we'll be over it with our choppers, but we're on the ground as well. look forward to that. have a great weekend!

forces raid into syria that killed an ice isz commander. just how big a blow is this to the terror group? also, the amtrak crash. >> i thought i was a goner. i think most of us did. i think just so violent. >> does this tragedy end up sparking a bigger debate on rebuilding america? plus jeb bush's terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week on iraq. >> would you have authorized the invasion? >> i would have. and so would have hillary clinton. >> how his brother's past is haunting jeb's future. and republican candidates suddenly all opposed to the iraq war. leading that charge, rand paul. he joins
