"today in the bay" starts right now. and a good friday morning, thank you for joining us, i'm sam brock. >> i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia canon. we'll get to the weather because of the series of storms headed our way. >> good morning, sam and kris.

we start out with cloudy skies and we will see our next storm system starting to move inland throughout the day and starts out with spotty, light rain for most of the morning and possibly throughout the morning and in the afternoon. some fog and mist in the north bay and we will have low visibility in spots and we'll talk about that rain coming up in a few minutes. let's get a look at the bay bridge now with mike. >> behind me we could still see and barely make out the tower and folks able to drive across the span, though, without a problem. we'll look at your map and no real slowing around the bay and overonight road crews causing one lane or two and most to be closed in spots for eastbound 580. 680 up through san ramon and close to 6:00 for the northbound side. back to you. >> thank you. new this morning a life or

death water rescue unfolding in antioch with a nearby security guard jumping into action and now being credited with saving a woman's life. >> stephanie chuang is live at the antioch marina and, steph, do you know what led up to that rescue? >> we are in luck we have the man who made the rescue himself and a security guard. david, you were talking to us about how this all started. you saw her drive into the lot at 10:30. >> that's correct. >> what was happening? >> she came in and she was driving recklessly and made a full turn around the parking lot and all of a sudden i see her coming about 45 and lunging herself with the car inside the marina here. when i saw that i rushed over here to rescue. i saw that the car was still floating and luckily i was able to put the window down and retrieve her from there. >> can you describe what she was like. she was pretty nervous.

you had tacalm her down. >> i had to calm her down and she was kind of yelling and feeling like she was going to die. i calmed her down and i told her, take off your seat belt. she was concerned about her legs. she wasn't able to move. so, i was able to reach to her hands and pull her. >> i know you're trained to watch out. you saw it was strange how she was driving but to find yourself in the situation, are you trained for this? >> i always try to have a lot of training outside of my work area, but, you know, something that i always try to keep up. >> perfect. anyone else with her or was she the only one? >> luckily she was the only one and it was confirmed that there was nobody else inside of the vehicle. >> david, thank you so much for talking to us. right place, right time. jumping into action there. it seems she was fine and

wrapped up by paramedics after. make sure there were no victims in the water, there were not. they were able tawrap this up in about an hour and a half. >> david still very low key after that dramatic rescue. thank you. the 97-year-old woman fighting an eviction notice on the peninsula passed away last night. we are talking about marie hash who was being forced out of her college in burlingame. the notice came after her landlord and close friend passed away and the new landlord decided to sell that property. a law firm has since stepped in to help out hatch pro bono. a lockdown at the santa clara county jail after an inmate brawl that was caught on the cameras that sheriff laurie smith had installed just days ago. the cameras captured this melee that started yesterday afternoon and also the response to it.

now, according to sheriff laurie smith more than 0 inmates were involved, including some of the more hard line suspects awaiting trial. smith says the inmates seemed to take sides based on race. >> it looks like one inmate brushed up against another and then the fists. you could see a lot of fist fighting and the inmates are spread throughout the pod. but that's where we installed the cameras. we don't have cameras in any of the other housing areas. it's interesting that it happened here. >> now, one watchdog group questions why the guards group the inmates as they did in the same area where the cameras were installed. as for injuries, the nursing staff treated several inmates for bumps and bruises. the timing of that brawl only adds to the question surrounding the jail. it happened just hours before a judge ruled three correctional deputies must stand trial for last summer's beating death of an inmate.

michael tyree died inside his cell inside that same facility where that brawl went down. 4:36 right now. we're seeing just a very small traces of what will be a lot more than a trace storm. meteorologist kari hall joining us now. >> good morning. we've seen the clouds all throughout the day and even mist and drizzle in spots. we'll start out the day with the same kind of weather and not really looking all that impressive as we look at the satellite and radar and not much green on there. as we go through the rest of the day, the rain will be spotty and not expecting much in the way of any heavy downpours and we may have a couple of those popping up here and there and into the afternoon also a chance of some rain that will be very hit or miss and it will continue as we go through the rest of the day. temperaturewise, we'll keep it in the 60s across all our microclimates. around 64 degrees in san francisco and 66 today in napa. i'll detail this and a bigger storm system expected to arrive as we head into tomorrow.

details on that coming up. let's get an update on what's happening on the roadways with mike. >> live looks because the speed sensors are green all over the bay and we'll show you what else might impact your drive and barely a glow here in the north bay san rafael and watching for the effects of some fog and damp roadways and we'll look towards golden gate bridge where we see much moisture and fog across the span and that will be a factor like it was yesterday. by the time we get to san mateo looking over here towards the san mateo bridge and a clear view, a clear drive. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. coming up next, a gop hopeful hedge their bets and start their debate on attacks on donald trump and in the end promise to support him. we'll show you what happened in between. got a tip for nbc bay area investigative unit? call 1-888-996-tips or e-mail theunit@nbcbayarea.com. nbc bay area, we investigate. children in a sandbox typicay

behave better .. than can scission 2016. did you catch the debate last night? children in a sand box typically behave better than the candidates in last night's debate. >> at least they didn't throw sand at the debate. it was insults and a lot of them. >> gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen, you have to do better than that.

>> well, miss manners would have had a field day with the four remainder contenders. and in between there was actually a few moments of political discussion, though they were hard to hear. moderators joined donald trump's challengers in questioning him on his health care plan. >> we'll save more than $300 billion a year. >> numbers don't add up. >> trump also seemed to offer leeway on some of his hardline stances, including syrian refugee saying flexibility isn't a necessity when it comes to negotiations. you saw megan kelly there. that was the first time donald trump faced her since. the bay area has three cases of the zika virus. napa county official os reported that case two days ago. yesterday we learned about two additional cases in alameda county. health officials do not believe that any of those cases actually

pose a threat to the public. here's why, the san francisco patient contracted the virus after traveling to central america. that person has fully recovered. no details are available on the alameda county patient. well, coming up, the school of rock now open. the opportunity for some local students.

get out of bed today and one of the first things you'll notice is that the temperatures are a little bit warmer.

>> increasing. >> about 60 degrees this morning as you head out and we have clouds blanketing the bay area and it keeps the temperatures from really dipping and speaking of clouds blanketing and we see fog over the golden gate bridge and it makes for low visibility in spots and maybe misting and that's to deal with drizzle. oakland 58 degrees and 55 degrees in santa rosa. so, as we go into the day, we are expecting some mainly light showers with this same fog kind of draped over parts of the bay area as the clouds continue to increase else where. later today, we'll have some brief passing showers by this afternoon and a mix of sun and clouds and then as we go into tomorrow, we're watching for a bigger storm system that may create some flash floodflooding along with strong winds and rain and heavy downpours with that.

i'll detail that in just a bit. looking at what we are expecting here over the next several days. the atmospheric river is setting up and the flow of the upper level winds and carry several areas of low pressure all across the bay area and also across the region that will create a very wet pattern. it starts out early this afternoon with some yellows and some reds here that indicate we could have some brief, heavy downpours but most of what we will see today will be some spotty, light rain and then here we are for tomorrow with some heavier downpours moving through. at 9:00 tomorrow evening, the strongest of those storms will be rolling by and then we'll see things kind of winding down, still with some rain lingering into sunday and rainfall totals are quite a bit. we're looking at least an inch and a half in san francisco and maybe some spots that get over to 2, 2 1/2 inches of rain just this weekend. i'll detail that coming up. let's get an update on what is happening with that fog over

some of the bridges with mike. >> get a peek or two as the clouds drift across and the fog. here's the span that westbound direction. for the taillights you can barely make out. that's the bay bridge and it's okay when you're driving on the span. let's look at your map and see if the speed sensors are not affected. san rafael into 101 and novato, as well. big view of the rest of the bay, no slowing. overnight road crews and the live look at dublin much clearer as far as the view and the drive, there's 580. back to you. a new report finds that americans are leasing cars more than ever. >> keeping their options open. for that story and the rest of the news before the bell, we turn now to landon dowdy live at cnbc world headquarters on a friday. good morning, landon. >> hey, there, sam and kris. good morning to you both. wall street will extend its winning streak to four days and investors are awaiting the big economic news of the week. the jobs report out at 8:30 a.m. eastern and we're expecting

another solid months of hiring in february with forecasts for 200,000 jobs. unemployment is seen holding at an eight-year low of 4.9%. that data will be closely watched by the fed and presidential candidates as a gauge of whether the economy continues to improve. the dow rising 44 points thursday to 16943. the nasdaq up 4 to 4407. meanwhile, a movie merger this morning. amc is buying carmine cinemas and creating the largest u.s. theater chain. amc is owned by chinese hotel giant. americans are leasing more vehicles than ever and borrowing more when they buy. a report by credit monitoring firm expeerian shows a third of new car purchases were leases up from 30% in 2014. the average car loan rising to a record $29,600. expeerian says to stay in their

budget, more consumers are turning to leases. >> just a smart money move. >> that's right. we don't lease, but we buy used. silicon valley is buzzing not over a high tech device. they are posted in downtown palo alto outside a company. it is a data analysis company. if you're looking at that right now, you're going, that's a dead unicorn. yeah, those fliers show the image of a dead unicorn with the message your common shares are worthless. a unicorn is what tech insiders call a privately held company valued in the billions of dollars. nbc bay area tracked down the poster's creator and he calls a sign of a new tech bubble that will chill the ipo market. some analysts agree with him. >> far fewer people believing the facebooks and the googles to start the chasep dream because

they're hearing all the horror stories of things going bad and people not finding any gold at the end of the rainbow. >> palantier did not return our calls for comment. if you feel like your b.a.r.t. train is more crowded than it usually is. turns out gremlins could be to blame. here's why. according to "the chronicle" which cites a miracle issue that is knocking b.a.r.t. cars out of service. the problem is impacting electrical components. this week alone it knocked 40 b.a.r.t. cars off line and that, in turn, is forcing b.a.r.t. to run smaller trains. one source believes the problem may be in some sort of power surge that is happening inside of the tube. >> hard to track a gremlin. b.a.r.t. will start to offer perks to lighten the load during peak hours. starting this spring, passengers who travel during nonpeak hours will join points which could be tallied on otheir clipper cards. the points can be redeemed for small cash prizes. b.a.r.t. received a federal grant for that program, which is

scheduled to last about six months. >> we don't think there are any gremlins in our computer projection models for the weekend and for all this rain. they're showing big numbers. >> yeah, but we are also, are we talking about "school of rock." so, you remember that popular movie "school of rock"? it is being brought to life on stage. >> jack black definitely not a gremlin. that's what a bunch of oakland school of the arts have a chance to do. after seven weeks of rehearsing these students put on a show at the theater for the first time last night. they're the first amateur group in the world to perform that musical off broadway. >> check, wait, this is what i'm doing. this is so cool. this is what i want to be doing. >> well, a special guest from the audience, governor brown, who helped to start the school and says no drought on rock.

>> i think you're obsess would the weather today. let's leave that to kari. coming up, the golden state warriors have a prince in their midst as they set up the dunk on the chicago bulls famous. happening right now a woman drives into the antioch marina overnight forcing a security guard into action. his quick thinking saved her life possibly. stephanie chuang is at the scene talking to that so-called hero and tweeting updates throughout the morning. our investigation into wrong pipes installed at b.a.r.t.'s new station. you can watch the full report on nbcb nbcbayarea.com. we're back in two minutes.

sam, you ready to talk about the weather. >> i think now is the appropriate time.

>> you were jumping the gun on it earlier. so excited about this storm, kari hall. >> soaking rain and also raises the threat of some flash flooding. this will be tomorrow. so, all the bay area will be on high alert for that possibility of some street flooding, as well as a few mudslides. we also will have a wind advisory in effect. the gusts will be topping 35 to 50 miles an hour and that could also cause some tree damage and power outages will be likely. be prepared for that. let's check in now with mike giving us an update on what is happening all across the bay. >> we'll look all across the bay and an easy drive. we'll move over towards the tri-valley where we look at westbound and just the tiniest bit of slowing and with the snow coming through the area and a note if you're heading to the sierra getting eastbound you'll start a lot of company and also bring those chains. look at fremont and one live shot in fremont. 880 shows you a nice easy drive southbound into the silicon

valley. back to you. >> all right, thank you very much, mike. when it comes to protecting live people's brains, one bay area lawmaker is taking the matter head on when it comes to the football field. if you follow football, you're probably well aware of the new link that researchers are finding to head and brain injuries. the concerns extend all the way down to the high school and youth level. so, today east bay congressman will hold a school concussion prevention event at antioch high school. former 49er bub au pairs is among the league veterans invited to attend. all right, another morning and another piece of sports history for the ws. a live look right now at oracle arena. all is quiet right now. but last night the crowd was electric fueled by an unexpected appearance from the one and only prince. >> yeah. >> maybe sound effects included.

a very significant, symbolic victory. the win makes it 44 straight at home for the warriors. that matches the chicago bulls record that they made 20 years ago. puts the ws all alone at the top of the record books and fans can't wait to see that happen. >> i'm more excited about on monday when we can actually break it because that will be 45. >> it's a remarkable streak. probably a couple games in there that we should have lost. it does take some luck, but, it's been very important for us the last couple years to establish the home court and really dominate it and we're proud of oour guys for that. >> all right. so, we do talk about luck here. >> just a little bit. the warriors next game is on the road against the lakers but, again, they'll have the chance to break the record for the most consecutive home wins monday night when the magic comes to town. coming up, a woman driving e

erratically plunges into the antioch marina. hear from the quick-thinking security guard who jump under to action to save her.
