and even a touch warmer in spots. so, we'll bring it up a couple of degrees, but, still, it is chilly as you head out the door and get the day started. 50 degrees in san carlos and 41 in napa and san jose is at 48 degrees and 72 for a high and 71 in palo alto. low 70s also for the north bay, east bay and the tri-valley. speaking of the tri-valley. mike, you have something going on there? >> first of all, don't worry. it's not at the dublin interchange. westbound 580 heading over towards that scene. look at your map, back over here going out of the altamont pass. reports of a stalled semi truck. it was over on the shoulder and someone was sticking out and consider that one unusable. folks are moving over towards the left and right where you get the express lane and things start to clear a bit. there may be a crash in the area, as well. chp will give us an update in a few. we'll send it right back to you. >> thank you, mike. coming up next, a live

hand in hand, people defying terror. hundreds gathering at the growing memorial. "today in the bay" steve handelsman is live in brussels this morning. >> steve, new details coming out this morning. is belgium media reporting a second suspect in the subway attacks might be at large but the brussels bombers were directly related to the paris attacks. good morning. >> good morning, sam, laura. it's clear here that police are unclear about exactly how many people are looking for. just as they were unclear about the connections that they are now, sadly, too late aware of between the paris attacks and the brussels attacks. first, let me set the scene here. behind me is the old building. this is the center of brussels considered by many the center of europe and the capital of this continent and this is mid-day. it's 40 minutes after 12:00 and lunchtime here and a lot of

folks have come down and crowded this area where makeshift memorials have been set up to remember those who were killed and those who were injured in the attacks. the twin attacks on tuesday. there's also, i think it's fair to say a growing fear here in the capital of belgium there might be more attacks because the police while they're looking for the mysterious man and wife seen in that three-person surveillance shot the guy on the right of the frame who police have not identified and said they're looking for there is also reports that the police are looking for a fourth person, a fifth person. they are clearly not sure how many people actually took part in the attacks and how many people might be still be lefttop over who supported the attacks and might be interested in mounting new attacks during belgium or anywhere else in europe. sam and laura, a lot of question marks and a lot of mixed feelings by belgiums. are the police to be praised because they did what they could

to stop these attacks and certainly afterwards have investigated vigorously or are they to be condemned and not trusted because they missed what happened. back to you. >> understandable. thank you very much, steve. coming up next -- >> there are ways to use our money. to pay some guy to sit in his car and do that. i mean, seriously. parents outraged by what our hidden cameras uncovered. i'm vicky nguyen a security guard hired to watch at-risk teens. what some were doing instead.

rnlsh while the city of denver, if you have friends in the area, you saw they were probably posting of what things looked like before and after this latest storm. several feet of snow piling high in the mile high city. blizzard conditions, winds up to 50 miles an hour brought that city to a standstill yesterday. some areas of denver saw 18 inches of snow. that storm system now moving over the midwest and the northeast bringing snow and rain to both of those regions of the country. >> closed dia, the airport there for some time. and it's such a central hub. >> we talk about a snowmeggedn on the east coast. welcome, denver. >> if you're trying to wake up right now at 4:45 in the morning. >> much different story here in the bay area this morbining. it is a clear start.

72 in napa and oakland 73 degrees and san ramon today 71 degrees. our storm pattern so well to the north of us and we are going to continue on with high pressure that controls our weather. bringing us some northerly winds and allowing high temperatures to reach into the 60s and 70s and then we're in for some changes as we go to early next week. cool air dropping in. as of now it doesn't look like it will bring us any rain, but may bring in light snow showers for the sierra as we continue on with dry weather into the start of next week. looking at easter weekend, highs in the mid-70s in the north bay on saturday. on sunday, we'll bring it down to about 70 degrees. we will have a few more clouds in the mix, but a lot of sunshine. for the most part over this weekend. looking at a very nice easter weekend. what's happening on the san mateo bridge, mike? >> we take a live look out there and traffic flows very nicely. a beautiful drive across 92 and

look at your map. not a lot happening on the bridge except for a smooth drive. that is great stuff. heading from the bay bridge to your avenues and the north bay, as well. one issue we're watching out of the altamont the disabled big rig reported on the right-hand shoulder and debris in the roadway and it sound like it hasn't been cleared. nothing else going on as far as the speeds. they're at the limit. back to you. >> mike, thank you very much. a very difficult process you might say trying to find affordable housing now, especially in the bay area. this probably not that surprising to you. but home prices on the whole are rising faster than wages in america. >> for more on that and the rest of the news before the bell, say good morning to landon dowdy live at cnbc world headquarters. good morning. >> hi, sam and laura. good morning to you both, as well. wall street could see more red arrows and stocks fell wednesday dragged down by oil prices which saw the biggest decline in a month and demand for durable goods and also a reminder the

markets are closed tomorrow for good friday. the dow falling 79 points to 17502. the nasdaq losing 52 to 4768. meanwhile, a new report finds home prices are raising fasfa faster than wages making it hard to buy a home. realty track says home prices and 9% of the u.s. housing market is now less affordable than historic lows. that means buyers need to spend more on their incomes and more of their incomes on housing leaving less for other purchases. apple will make apple pay compatible with safari web browser later this year. that will allow to make purchases from mobile websites and it will be available to shoppers and have technology on their iphone or ipad and the features should be ready before the start of the holiday shopping season. sam and laura, back over to you. >> just in time to not find out how much money you're draining.

>> that's right. 4:49. now to an investigative unit exclusive. new questions this morning about who's on the payroll for a job that could mean the difference between life and death. >> senior investigative reporter vicky nguyen joining us into the investigation of security guards hired by the city of palo alto. vicky? >> part of track watch to help keep at-risk teens off the train track. three guards arrested working for the city palo alto the new guard would be more professional and alert. we set up surveillance and night after night it documented guards away from their posts for hours and even one guard asleep in his car for more than an hour. we also obtained records showing another arrest. siper security guard luke sour. he pleaded not guilty to lewd behavior after police allegedly found him slumped in his car with half a bottle of wine and his pants unzipped. the owner of the security says
