6:05 am
that's why during the dry months the santa clara valley water district spent that time to shore up the banks and clear out the debris of some of its waterways here and in the south bay. but in spite of that effort, we did talk to a board member and they tell us more work to be done. >> not totally ready. we've done a lot with sandbags and just approved over a million dollars extra for sandbags. the projects are take longer and longer and more and more environmental challenges. >> again, as you see the scene behind me, commuters going over the hump here on the summit to get into the santa clara valley. you do want to watch for speeds this morning because the roads are dry, obviously. they are wet and the chp would tell you want to watch the distance between you and the car in front of you. reporting live here in the santa cruz mountain, bob redell, "today in the bay." we have an app where you can track all this weather yourself. a weather tab up in the corner.

6:20 am
yellows and the reds and oronges showing pretty much what we are seeing now with some heavy rain and then by tomorrow afternoon, still some scattered showers lingering in the bay area as we see the fourth round of rain moving through. as we go into the next few days, we will have a chance to dry out, but not until friday. our temperatures staying the same and we'll be reaching into the mid to upper 50s for the next few days. let's take a look ahead at what we're expecting. on thursday afternoon, more rain moving through. not much on friday. saturday morning we have some scattered showers passing by. on sunday morning, once again, on monday we will see some more rain passing as we go into late monday night. so, staying active with these storm systems moving through for the next several days. let's see how the roads look now as we check in with mike. >> let the pictures tell the words right now for oakland. southbound flashing lights. not to worry, no incidents reported at 66 and we're looking. northbound the earlier disabled

weather and there is heavy snow coming down in the sierras. the bright reds and yellows shows where the most intense rain is. as you can see in the last few frames there as we cycle through the past three hours, you can see it becomes less intense for most of the bay area. while we're not seeing much of that in san francisco. and as that continues to move over the hills, we will still have some scattered showers throughout the day and even some breaks with the sun coming out at times. i'll let you know exactly when to expect and where. that's coming up in the microclimate forecast. but let's head to the peninsula now with mike. >> kari, we'll start in palo alto the traffic volume relatively and the rain kicking up behind the cars as they travel through the area right here by university and the volume will be affected by that water on the windshield, even though it's not actively raining right here. as we look at your map, that is the case all over the bay because the blue shows you where there is ponding and puddling
6:32 am
and have that rain a little more earlier this morning. looking at northbound route to the south bay. looking at a gentle build. considering it is a tuesday, this is not bad and considering there were a number of crashes throughout. things are moving well. northbound 680 just north of auto mall parkway. a couple crashes there affecting the off ramp and just past the off ramp. some slowing countercommute. you don't expect that. over here in the tri-valley moves well. and dublin interchange and the crash just off there and westbound 580 just off the dublin grade. the reason for the slowing there is a crash on canyon road and prepare for that moving to the shoulder. meanwhile, a slower drive for hayward and across the san mateo bridge. across the bay bridge, bay bridge metering lights and no surprises there. look at san rafael and one spot that shows up blue and the soupy conditions we showed you just a couple of minutes ago at the top of the show. the build from novato down to the san rafael bridge. let's bring in stephanie chuang in marin county keeping an eye on weather there. good morning.

6:35 am
>> palo alto is below the flood line. in a bad flood like we had in 1998, people could lose their lives. >> that's why in the dry months you see the water district out there. you can see them with heavy equipment moving boulders to shore up some of their banks and clear out debris. again, during this series of storms we're getting this week, we're not expecting major flooding and urban flooding that we have been mentioning where stephanie mentioned and we talked about flooding on the roads and this week we do not expect them to reach their flood stages. reporting live here in the santa cruz mountains along highway 17, bob redell nch. to san jose. this is a live look of flooding near the intersection of stevens creek boulevard and not far from valley fair. right now a pump truck is right

"today in the bay" kris sanchez here and the president's plan centers around expanding background checks. >> you can't make it mandatory forren with who wants to buy a gun to undergo a background check, but this certainly would close the loophole that allows some people to buy guns at gun shows without getting that background check. today's formal announcement comes after the president got confirmation from the u.s. attorney general loretta lynch that this executive order is, in fact, constitutional. the fbi also backs that up, as well. the move to require all
6:38 am
