upper 70s for concord and livermore. 78 degrees. also 78 for san jose, and 75 for napa. oakland, 69. and san francisco today up to 63 degrees. we'll talk more about whether like this heading into the holiday weekend. that's coming up in eight minutes. mike says there's a very slow drive showing up in the tri-valley. >> we have been following this for about a half hour over here on 680. the rest of the bay does move well, but from pleasanton to sunol, a good amount of slowing. we have seen it get easier and harder for the next few minutes. i do believe this is the last of the crew clearing with the lane closures through the area, but we'll track that very closely. as a result of this, we have a slower drive time right in the middle there, through the tri-valley. again, this started to improve in the last couple minutes. and another crash in san rumome i'll show you coming up. >> busy morning out there. >> we're also covering breaking news coming from south san francisco where police officers opened fire overnight, killing a

suspect. it's a story we've been following for hours. >> pete suratos joining us live right now from the scene off skyline boulevard, with the latest. we can tell behind you, all kinds of police presence. what do you know so far? >> reporter: yeah, good morning to you. a very active scene here on the 3700 block of cork place in south san francisco. i want to show you what's taking place behind me, as i mentioned in the last report. a number of agencies, san mateo sheriff's office, south san francisco police. a coroner's van on site as well as a forensics team, and we're expecting the first media briefing to take place in the next half hour, but i was able to get some new details from authorities not too long ago. just got off the phone with them. they're telling me they responded to a disturbance on this block. that's why you have people in front of this home right now. they responded to a disturbance roughly before 12:00 a.m. involving a person with a firearm. the person was outside holding a

shotgun at the time. officers told the person to comply, but that failed. that's when shots were fired. we can report that no officers were injured during this time. we're hoping to get more details on exactly what took place here at this shooting. during that media briefing in the next half hour, we can take you back out here live. you can see the active scene. we're going to hear shortly from the sergeant for more details, but they're saying it was a disturbance in this area. this individual was holding a shotgun and told to comply and did not, and that's what led to shots be fired. we'll have another update at the top of next hour. back to you in the studio. >> we'll wait for those updates. thank you very much. >> we continue to track the latest out of manchester this morning. look at the memorial site that just continues to grow. as flowers, you see there, placed in honor of the 22 victims killed in the horrific terror attack that happened on monday. with manchester, the rest of the world right now demonstrating its grief here, from the empire state building to the eiffel

tower to the coliseum in rome, and the tallest skyscraper in the world in dubai, the tributes to the victims continue to grow. less than an hour ago, major developments to tell you about. manchester police announcing they had identified all of the victims in the bombing. the youngest just eight years old. we knew that. now police will begin notifying families. in the meantime, police in manchester in the investigation have arrested three more men in connection to the bombing. the suicide bomber, 22-year-old salmon ababeabedi, was born and raised in the city he attacked. he was trained abroad by a terrorist organization, though his allegiance isn't clear now. police have also arrested his brother and they have not ruled out the ability he had a lot of help carrying out the attack. the city of manchester is sending out a powerful message. >> manchester comes together and we stand strong, and nothing is

going to stop that. >> the people of england are waking up this morning to the maximum terror level, what's called the critical level, which means that increased police presence and soldiers deployed at key locations throughout manchester. >> stay with us for our continuing coverage of this story as we get so much more information coming in by the hour. getting all those updates and going to bring the latest to you as soon as we have them and we're updating our website along with our facebook and twitter feeds 24/7. >> 5:04. happening now in rome, president trump meeting with the italian president, prime minister, and nato leaders. president trump had another high-profile meeting while you were sleeping. he met privately with pope francis. before that private meeting, pope francis also greeted the first lady, ivanka trump, and her husband, jared kushner. the private meeting lasted less than a half hour. as parting gifts, the pope gave trump his papal letter on the environment. president trump gave the pope a set of books, including one

written by dr. martin luther king jr. the meeting was much anticipated given how differently the two leaders view world issues like climate change, immigration, and arms sales. a fedex employee behind bars this morning and he's accused of burglarizing several homes on the peninsula. today in the bay's kris sanchez joining us live from menlo park with the details. he reportedly was committing these burglaries on the job? >> a little unnerving to hear this because so many of us get packages delivered by fedex and other agencies. we're on trinity drive, and this is where the third home was allegedly burglarized by 57-year-old kevin hayward as he was working as a delivery driver contracted by fed ex. . police said he burglarized a home in atherton on may 3rd. two days later, he hit another home. on may 17th is when he came to

the home on trinity drive and burglarized the home around 7:00 in the evening. the menlo park police say that kevin baker has a history. he's already a convicted felon. some reaching out to fedex via twitter, e-mail, phone calls. waking everybody up to find out how a convicted felon came to be a driver for fedex. we hope to have that for you at 6:00. in menlo park, kris sanchez, today in the bay. >> thank you very much. >> 5:06. new details this morning, back to the drawing board for dublin school board leaders who voted down the plan for a new high school. it called for campus across from the east county hall of justice, a half a mile from santa rita jail. parents and students packed the meeting to voice concerns about the plan. not only was the location controversial, but some parents believe the site would not be large enough to fit the kind of campus that now must be builts. >> now they're going to bus the kids over here to the other side of dublin? this is impractical. >> you would only need like one

incident to happen, it goes down the drain. why would we even send our kids there? >> the trustees voted 3-2 against that proposal. the district is still hoping to have a new school ready to go within the next six years. it's 5:07, with cloudy skies starting out this morning. if you're planning to hit the links today at half moon bay, it will be cloudy and also foggy at times. low visibility. we will also have some cool temperatures starting out in the mid 50s, reaching 60 later today. that will be the case all along the coastline as we will see some cool air staying with us. for the inland areas, much more comfortable. a look at the day planner for san jose starting out at 58 degrees. reaching the upper 70s today, and it will be so comfortable and nice with all of that 9. we'll take a look ahead to the day planner for santa clara. that's coming up in about three minutes. mike's starting with a crash in san ramon. >> 680 southbound, the direction where the crash is located.

but we don't see any problems for the sensors, as we got a look at the entire bay, we zoom into this direction out of danville, and there is a smooth flow of traffic there, but then farther south, that's the 680 section that has the slower drive. seeing the sensors starting to move from red to orange and yellow, and by that pattern, i would say that they are clearing the last of the crew through the area and southbound to pleasanton and in towards sunol from the overnight road work. as we're looking at your maintenance on the railways, no delays because they cleared all the maintenance vehicles. b.a.r.t. is off to a good start today. >> no delays, thank you. >> coming up a pricier ride. the city imposing a fee on ride sharing companies like uber and lyft. >> plus, is the president's budget dead on arrival in washington?

it's 5:11 now. cloudy skies, lookb live over san jose. i want to show you the temperature trend for santa clara. we start out needing long sleeves as the temperatures will be cool, but look at how the temperatures quickly warm up today into the low 70s by early afternoon.

and then today up to 76 degrees at 4:00. we'll enjoy the sunshine and cooler weather, and we'll see more of that heading into the holiday weekend. i'll have a look at that coming up at 5:17. >> and the middle time continues to improve. south 680 through the earlier construction zone. slow in towards sunol. also tracking that crash in san ramon. >> we all take ride sharing because it represents such a good deal, relative to the other options, right? but now a san francisco supervisor has a plan to fix some of the congestion problems in the city, and it involves proposing a ride sharing fee. this is jane kim's idea. looking at a possible 20 cents per ride fee. the state of massachusetts has a pretty similar fee that's already in place. if it were to be adopted, it would apply to both lyft and uber rides. circling and double parking by ride sharing cars are causing congestion. money from the fees would help to reg that. >> and san francisco supervisors

are making a deal with developers. they can build higher only if they include affordable housing. the board passed that legislation yesterday. it allows developers building along major transit corridors to build up to 20 feet higher if now 30% of the units are affordable housing. supervisors say the move could add about 5,000 new affordable housingts over the next 20 years. >> a smartphone war appears to be heating up. apple has launched a new campaign to lure away android users. a new section on apple's website is designed to get consumers to make that switch. it features the headline, life is easier on the iphone and answers questions about why users should consider switching. globally, android devices outnumber iphones by about three to one. >> that's pretty amazing. i can't imagine they do in the united states. >> microsoft trying to steal away customers too. >> microsoft just unveiled its

latest version of its surface pro tablet, microsoft's answer to the ipad. this would be generation five for the surface pro, as you see a close-up. this will hit stores in mid-june. uber will pay millions to drivers in new york city the company discovered it had been underpaying for years. uber said it miscalculated. each driver will get on average $900. this is not the first time uber has discovered it was underpaying drivers. you remember that scandal that hit volkswagen cheating customers and regulators with software that fakes emissions data? well, fiat chrysler has now been accused of something similar. the justice department says chrysler has used software in more than 100,000 cars to cheat emissions tests. the company says it has not. >> the dow gained again tuesday. the fourth day of gains in a roy. we'll get the latest later this morning. washington has a chance to see president trump's budget.

big thumbs down for both sides. dead on arrival is the phrase we're hearing most, as we previewed for you on monday the white house budget proposed severe cuts for programs for the poor and children. i talked to barbara lee, the congressman out of the east bay, who points out not only does the budget hurt her constituents in oakland, it hurts trump's most loyal voters in the south and rust belt. >> hopefully they will see the light now and they will wake up and understand that he stands for the billionaires and millionaires, and what he's doing is cutting budgets that they rely on. >> now, obviously, congress has the final word on what the budget really is because they hold the purse strings. mr. trump in the past has had the opening gambits that are wild ideas as negotiating ploys. we'll see how it works out. >> can we stop calling him the populist candidate? he wants to cut medicaid, veterans benefits.

>> no question. >> developing story. a look at this cell phone video of a tornado tearing through a central north carolina town. 100 miles per hour. this happened yesterday. the town is about 20 miles west of fayetteville. some brave soul was out there. michael bartlett, it looks like, taking this video. now, the twister is violent, but only one person suffered minor injuries. listen to the reverend who took the cell phone video describing the horrifying moments. >> the sound, a freight train and it was coming. like this can't be happening. you think you know how you will respond in those situations. when you're in the situation, it's different. >> the small town of 200 people did suffer plenty of damage. it's under a state of emergency this morning. >> 5:15 right now. here in the bay area, we're experiencing the cooldown kari has been telling us was coming. >> i'm so glad. it was so hot. and you're just trying to find ways to cool off. i'm so glad i can leave the air

conditioner off today and you'll still have weather warm enough to enjoy. that's what we're looking forward to as we head into the next several days. and the holiday weekend is upon us. it's wednesday. and we're still seeing those low clouds over hayes valley. in san francisco, misting at times and starting out the day drizzling. we'll see it clearing out. the temperature now at 54 degrees. fairly mild and it will be a warm day for the valleys, but we're not talking about near record heat here. we're up to 79 des in concord, comparing that to 90 degrees yesterday. and in livermore, 78 degrees. also 78 in san jose, palo alto, 76 degrees, and half moon bay, we'll keep the clouds and fog and only make it up to 59 degrees while napa will get some sunshine today and highs in the mid 70s. let's go through the day in oakland. we will be in the upper 50s at 8:00, and then your lunchtime temperature at 63 degrees.

you may be wearing long sleeves all day there. at least it will be sunny. sunglasses, a necessity. if you want to head farther to the north to sonoma wine country, it will be cool to start, but it will be a very nice and comfortable afternoon for hanging out at some of the vineyards there. 72 degrees at 4:00. if you're hitting the road, heading to the sierra, this is a live look at heavenly this morning as we see the sun rise, it's all clear, but there will be rain in the forecast by friday, and the next couple days, also very warm temperatures reaching into the low 70s. we've got sun today and tomorrow. a high of 68 degrees on thursday. we'll bring it back to san francisco, going to see the high temperatures in the low to mid 60s. not a drop of rain in the forecast, but you may get the morning drizzle to keep everything bright and green. and then as we go inland, it will be 80 degrees today and the high temperature by the end of the week will be 74 degrees. it will come up just a couple degrees in time for the holiday

weekend. even memorial day is going to be, but a little warmer. some of those spots hitting 82 degrees. have a look at some events going on. that's coming up later, but mike is still focused on i-680. >> i want folks to know i'm looking at the entire bay, but we're focused on the slower drive and the crash we have been outlining. got word instead of the fast lane, it's now the slow blocked by a crew helping out with the crash. south 680. so you'll find slowing right at the scene, but as you're coming down through danville and in toward the dublin interchange, speeds overall are looking okay. and speeds are looking a lot better through pleasanton and in through sunol. it does look like the overnight road crew did clear just after 5:00, and because of that, we have fast breaks and residual delay. that's it for the tri-valley, and after this cleared up, we should get back to the morning commute. a smooth ride on all the transit agencies. let's get you to the waze

system. waze gives you some options here. if you want to avoid 680 and that slower drive in pleasanton, you can get over toward alvarado niles, but it adds some time on there. jump off at stanley, and even if you use 580 and 680 through the slow stretch, it only takes 35 to 40 minutes. still okay. as you get out to your system, get on your phone and use waze as well. plan your route, wherever, whenever you're going. and make sure you're on our time by clicking on our profile and selecting nbc bay area wazers. that's the team to join today so we can help each other out. back to you. >> thank you very much. >> 5:20 right now. coming up, walking off the job. the bay area school where teachers will be missing from classrooms today. >> plus, changes to your commute. the new schedule unveiled for smart train riders. >> a live look this morning. president trump just leaving italy, nowed for brussels. he had a meeting overnight with

the pontiff that lasted about a half hour. one he says he will never forget. we'll continue to track his comings and goings on today in the bay. 5:21 right now.

then when you see it here, it's just horrendous. >> as the country mourns, the terror alert in the uk is at its highest level, critical. right now, british prime minister theresa may is warning another attack may be imminent. >> stay with us for our continuing coverage of the story. we have been getting updates all morning long, certainly updates in the show. we're updating our website all day long, nbcbayarea.com, along with facebook and twitter 24/7. >> good morning. we'll take you for a look at your commute right now, and overall, things are looking smooth. as far as the speed sensors go, we have a crash in san jose, northbound 87 at capital expressway. one lane blocked, a little farther north at alma, another vehicle taking care of a flat tire. a couple issues along the stretch and heading down to san jose. sensors don't show the slowing

here. they do show the typical build, northbound 101 from 680 to oakland road. a smooth flow of traffic on the tracks and the water. b.a.r.t. did talk about a delay developing between fruitvale and lake marriott because of some issue. >> we're also closely tracking what's going on this weekend, as we are now just a few days away. >> and it's an extended weekend for a lot of people. >> must be nice to get vacation time. >> you may be planning on hitting the road or getting away. we're also going to have cooler temperatures, as we look at saturday's forecast, the coast will be 63 degrees. 68 degrees on the bay, and 74 inland. it's going to be perfect for those barbecues. or maybe if you want to have some swimming weather, you have to head farther south. up to 77 on sunday. for the inland areas, bay, 71, and 65 along the coast. starting out with some clouds.

and if you're planning to head to bottlerock this weekend in napa valley, it is going to be so perfect. 76 degrees on saturday. and sunday, a little warmer, up to 83 degrees with some sunshine. if you're going to be heading to the sierra, here's a look at kirkwood's forecast. there will be some rain for the weekend, starting on friday and then off and on on sunday, there may also be a slight chance of some thunderstorms, rather on saturday, we'll have that chance of some rain, and then clearing out on sunday with highs in the mid 60s. then on memorial day, the presidio parade will happen at 10:30 in the morning. fog starting out, but we may get the fog clearing just in time for the raid. on memorial day, our temperatures warming up to the mid 60s in san francisco. we'll take a look at the temperature trend for san jose coming up in three minutes. >> we'll look forward to that, thank you, kari. >> 6:40 right now. ing up, shutting down. the east bay school closing its

even though it's cloudy outside right now as we look at san jose, forget the sunglasses. there will be some clearing after a fews, and we do start

out with some cool temperatures, warming up quickly into the low 70s. 74 degrees for lunchtime, then as you get ready to head home from work, we'll have temperatures in the upper 70s. a nice afternoon to spend time outside, going to the park, and we'll have more weather like that heading into the long holiday weekend. that forecast is coming up at 5:49. >> and we're looking at the tri-valley, east bay, the travel times holding steady. we're talking 6, a little slower than we're used to at this time. i'll talk about why coming up. >> here's something you were covering for us earlier this morning. all new surprise overnight geyser could mean extended cleanup along a busy commuter stretch in the east bay. this took firefighters about two hours to shut that water down that was spewing from a sheared fire hydrant earlier this morning. this happened in concord on the port chicago highway. for a time, the water could be measured in inches. again, off now, but there may be

residual delays due to the cleanup. >> new this morning, despite objections from parents and students, the alameda school district has reportly voted to shut down in a matter of weeks. the school deemed seismically unsafe. lum elementary school could collapse in a catastrophic earthquake. parents hoped the school would delay the vote. last night, the chronicle reports they went ahead with the plan to close the campus at the end of the school year. roughly 500 students will have to transfer next to several other schools. >> quarter to 6:00 right now, the president met with the pope earlier today. >> and scott mcgrew, the two disagree on a lot of things. even thatt. >> that's right. the pope has not spoken specifically about the actual use budget, but he has said in the past he thinks one of the key economic principles, the president's attempt to balance the budget with, trickle down economics, is just morally wrong. the pope believes climate change

is a major threat. despite that, the two leaders did have a cordial meeting at the vatican. president trump also met with the italian president and he's on his way to brussels right now. at home, we learned a lot from the testimony of former cia director john brennan. we learned american intelligence knew the russians were meddling in our election far earlier than we in the public first thought. we learned the cia briefed the gang of eight, the four top senators, the four top members of the house in august of last year and told them the russians are trying to influence the election and the russians were in contact with americans involved in the trump campaign. there's something else that brennan said about the russian investigation that i thought was important. why do we care about this so much? why this goes beyond politics and finger pointing. the long statement, but it's an important one. take a look. for the last 241 years, this

nation and its citizens have cherished the freedom and liberty that this country was founded upon. many, many americans, brave americans over the years have lost their lives to be able to protect that freedom and liberty. they have lost their lives also to protect the freedom and liberties of other countries and other peoples around the world. our ability to choose our elected leaders as we see fit is, i believe, an inalienable right that we must protect with all of our resources and all our authority of power. and the fact that the russians tried to influence that election so that the will of the american people was not going to be realized by that election, i find outrageous and something that we need to with every last ounce of devotion to this country resist. >> something all americans can get behind. republicans get the cbo score of the health care bill today. montana has its special election tomorrow. the week will continue to be busy.

we're interested in what you think about all of this. president trump, the democrats, the republicans, me. you can hit me on twitte twitter @scottmcgrew. >> scott, thank you very much. boy, we're sure also interested in what is lying ahead for our weather and cool down here that's going on. >> and it's going to be nice. as you start to make plans, plan for a cool morning and then some comfortable afternoons. and sunshine, too. how about that? we are going to head into a long day weekend with pretty much anything you want to do open because of the weather and it's going to be 58 degrees as you head out the door. the sunrise happening in five, six minutes now, at 58 degrees as you step out in the south bay. tri-valley, low 50s. for the north bay, now 50 degrees. 51 degrees in san francisco. 78 degrees, that will be the high today. we're coming down a few more degrees in the south bay. the peninsula, as we take a live look at the san mateo bridge, 76 degrees for the high today.

temperatures the same in san francisco. mostly sunny skies. also sunshine inland. and going from 80 today to the mid 70s by friday. and the weekend is looking nice, too. and mike, you're still updating a crash now in san ramon. >> i am, because there are very few crashes on the chp blotter. this one has been sticking around. not a lot of appreciable slowing. a big look at the bay, no surprises. just one incident sltands out. blocks the slow lane. there hasn't been slowing developing other than at the scene, so we'll track that for 680. a little farther south, we'll track the waze system. we started out slow. road crews cleared late from sunol here, so we still have that as the outstanding slowdown for this portion of your map. you might want to take it over to hayward where there's also slowing, but that adds about ten minutes. the purple route, that actually is a little faster than all the routes, even though you're going through the slower. you can check your routes and decide on your options as you look at your phone, i hope is
