"today in the bay" continues right now. good morning and thank you for joining us. i'm marcus washington. and i'm laura garcia. let's check in with vianey in for kari hall this morning, tracking this latest storm for us. will everyone see it? >> not really. especially if you live anything north of the golden gate bridge, it looks like this storm system is actually more focused south of the golden gate bridge, but going into the start of your

workweek, yeah, looks like the rest of the bay area is probably going to get a good soaking as we head in towards the next workweek. you are going to notice kind of a wild mix of temperatures. napa is at 39, san jose at 51, but besides that we are seeing some fog so please slow it down. parents, i want to get you started on the school day forecast if you're getting the kids prepared right now. we will be fairly comfortable. by 1:00 at about 57 degrees, we will keep the clouds in the sky, not really tracking rain. we might see light drizzle along the coast, but all in all we won't see that rain move in until later. so keep that in mind as we head into today, upper 60s for the most part. the roadways as we often see on a friday very light right now. the fog will be a factor for areas creeping toward hayward along the east bay. the peninsula and south bay a mild build. fremont, i want to take our camera over here, 880, this area

looks like it's fine. we do see the haze and clouds hovering around. look how bright this shot is. these head lights are lighting up and refracting off the water in the air and that's why you don't use the high beams during fog because with duensing fog, more moisture, more reflection. that will be a problem if you use your high beams in areas like the north bay. very tough to see and through the oakland hills as well. the freeways do move slowly aside from the bay bridge toll plaza. on the city streets in oakland we have a major issue, an investigation. it is breaking news that we're covering from oakland this morning. a live look from the scene of a deadly hit and run. it happened just before 3:00 this morning on san pablo near brockhurst street. police say a car hit and killed a woman in her 40s. the accident actually shut down both directions of san pablo avenue this morning. so far there's no timeline on when it may reopen. developing this morning police are investigating a

"today in the bay's" pete suratos is live at the scene and, pete, what have you been able to find out this morning? >> reporter: good morning. i want to point out where this all happened, this construction site behind me, it is called the landing. that's what i found out on the walnut creek website, apparently was set to open in spring of this year. as you mentioned this is very rare to see a crime like this in walnut creek. prior to this they have only had two homicides since 2016. we will show you guys the scene video from not too long after this all took place. what we do see is that a car is being towed out of this construction site, it's unclear how that is expected to the homicide, but according to walnut creek police they're saying this investigation started just before 7:30 p.m. and at that site -- at the site behind me they found a 60-year-old victim with life-threatening injuries who was pronounced dead on the scene. also on the scene they found a

34-year-old male suspect who has been detained. the motive behind this homicide is unclear. we do know according to walnut creek police that the suspect and victim did know -- they knew each other, but they are not walnut creek res didn't. police aren't looking for any suspects at this time, but if you have any information to help with this case, contact walnut creek police. we're live in walnut creek, pete suratos for "today in the bay." thank you so much for the update. the white house working out details of something that has never happened before, a face-to-face meeting between an american president and the leader of north korea. authority korean leader kim jong-un has agreed to stop missile tests for now and move towards getting rid of his nuclear program. it comes after south korea's national security adviser add nounsed that un would meet with president trump. in a tweet president trump called it great progress but insisted sanctions will remain. republicans on capitol hill say it's a sign the maximum pressure campaign is working. a nbc news historian explains

what it means to north korea. >> for kim the leader of north korea, you know, this is a dream come true. he has a summit. he has wanted that for decades. >> democrats are calling it a significant opportunity but worry the president could go off script. the two have traded insults in the past. no word on where the meeting might happen or ben, but we will have continuing coverage throughout the morning. scott mcgrew is taking a closer look at the historic meeting coming up in checks and balances that's at 6:45 this morning. police in lafayette are reportedly now saying that graffiti on a bathroom wall suggesting violence at a high school is not credible. the east bay times reports someone wrote that threat on the girls bathroom stall at ak land necessary high school. after a risk assessment the school decided classes would go on as planned. police say they will be nearby as a precaution. there is a school safety

network that actively tracks the number of violent incidents and threats made around the country. it probably won't surprise you to learn that those numbers have been higher ever since last month's parkland school rampage, as in seven times the typical amount. more than 1,000 schools around the country have been impacted. new details now, san francisco police have named the other two suspects tied to a deadly police shooting in the mission officers. officers pulled over a car with two people inside. they shot and killed jesus duarte who was armed and hiding in the trunk. the other two suspects are victor flores and christina juarez each facing nell knee robbery charges. new details about what i'm grant advocates are accused of doing at a detention facility in itch rich ronald. spending contraband to detainees and depositing money into their accounts. that's according to contra costa

sheriff's office. we told you yesterday 20 volunteers from san francisco based nonprofit civic have been kicked out of the west county detention facility. they are also accused to relaying messages to family and friends on the outside. those allegations come after civic warned of abuse at the detention center. this morning the search for answers continue in vallejo after a biz dplar hit and run crash. a memorial continues to grow at the scene on the corner of veravas avenue where aries buffin died on wednesday. the high school senior had just turned 18. she had dreams of going to college and playing sports. we're seeing a dramatic surveillance video showing part of that crash. an suv just went flying across the street, you saw it flipping up and down, flipping over and hitting buffin while walk to go a friend's house. vallejo police are looking for 29-year-old vincent fitser, they

think he might have been involved in the crash. >> i just can't believe it. you know, i just can't believe something like this happened in our town. i can't. it's sad. it is. i hope they find him. >> reporter: b buffin was taken to the hospital with severe injuries where she later died. she was one of eight siblings. the search is on for a violent armed robbery suspect in the south bay. i want you to take a look at this surveillance foot nl a. police say he held a teller at gunpoint at a wells fargo bank on north first street back in december. they are just now releasing this video. we have another mountain lion sighting on the peninsula to tell you about this morning. san mateo wildlife officials warning people about an aggressive mountain lion. it comes after two encounters in portola valley along the sunrise trail. the trail is closed until further notice. there have been sightings also

in the town of pescadero. we also showed you video of two mountain lions outside a home in the santa cruz mountains. the homeowner didn't feel threatened there. the animals played for 20 minutes but mainly kept to themselves. good morning. it is 6:09. it is fairly mild but i can tell you that our afternoon is going to be pretty lovely. we are expecting kind of the dark cloudy skies, but overal look at those temperatures, san jose 69 degrees as we head towards the east bay walnut creek at 67, oakland 64, along the peninsula we did have that chance of seeing light drizzle, that has completely made its exit so don't worry about the rain for the majority of the rain. san mateo 65 degrees. as we head over to san francisco we will be in the upper 50s, low 60s. right now in the north bay the biggest impact that we're seeing is that fog. slow it down. novato a high of 68. i will talk about that rain that's heading in towards your weekend coming up in a bit, but we have to check in with mike.

continuing with the changes for the visibility in the north bay. now, changes on the peninsula, it's clear, you see the low clouds in the distance there, but there was an issue, a disable vehicle reported on southbound 101 with these headlines down past willow. you see uninterrupted traffic at willow so it may be in the area but i don't see a problem here on the live cameras and also on our speed sensors. through the peninsula no problems as you travel 101 south in toward palo alto. we will track that. there is low visibility in oakland and the problem here you can't go on to san pablo between 32nd and 34th. we continue to follow that scene. i will show you the latest from that scene and get you a peek at the bay bridge where the backup is, fog in the north bay. back to you. coming up next on "today in the bay," four people are behind bars in connection with a massive credit card skimming operation in the bay area. the countries the suspects may have targeted. plus big job numbers this morning and a really lucky break for supporters of net

neutrality. all that when "today in the bay" continues.

good morning. it is 6:13. it's time for a quick check of your tahoe report so we can check the current conditions. up in squaw valley we are expecting the chance of seeing light snowshowers as we head towards saturday. right now 112 inches at the base with 234 inches season total. 22 lifts open at the surface, 42

groomed runs and 96 trails open for squaw valley. if you're heading up there saturday may be a good idea to check the road conditions though we are not expecting heavy rain. looking toward the roadway we have light traffic for visibility. 880 past the coliseum if you can believe that. that's a nice easy drive. the clearer view is towards the bay bridge toll plaza but the roadways packed in because the metering lights are still on. and happy friday, everybody. it's not just any friday, it is jobs friday. we have great numbers this morning. i will just do the clapper. 313,000 jobs added to the american economy in the month of february. it's blockbuster numbers. the unemployment rate sticks at 4.1%. it shows you how low the unemployment rate already is. it's considered full employment. very difficult for that number

to fall much further. let's talk about stocks and companies that are making -- or we can talk about this as well. this is an important date, march 9th, 2009. well, okay -- i will tell you what, i'm just going to talk to you, how about that. let's talk about companies making news. macy's will add three discount stores to northern california. "the new york times" says netflix is working on a deal with barack and michelle obama for some kind of new television store. i was talking about that date march 9th. it's an important date. it was on march 9th, 2009 the stock market hit its lowest point following the economic collapse and every day after that has been a slow march upwards. so today marks nine years of a bull market and that is a long bull market. you saw people typing on computers here, we are talking about twitter this morning. more changes are coming to san francisco's twitter. the ceo says every day users are going to get blue check marks if

they can prove without a doubt who they are. that should cut down on fake accounts run by russians. twitter has tried this in the past. it started giving the blue check marks to all kinds of people including racists and white supremacists because twitter had established they were who they said they were but people interpreted this blue check mark as symbolizing some legitimacy or an dorsment so twitter took away the blue check mark from a lot of people. how this will be different this time around we don't know. big news in the battle for net neutrality. you remember the fcc noted to get rid of a number of rules that protect net neutrality and a bunch of groups sued to get those rules back. well, a judicial panel says it's going to combine all of those lawsuits and put those lawsuits in front of an appellate court. they chose it at random, imagine a roulette wheel. it landed on number 9. exactly. number 9, our appellate court is the most liberal court of the

land. so if you are a supporter of net neutrality, you want these rules back, you haven't won yet, but, boy, did you get a good set of judges. >> no kidding. it landed where you most likely wanted it. it's 6:17 right now. four men recently arrested in a suspected atm card skimming operation with being tied to an international crime ring. last month fremont police arrested the first suspect at an atm machine. officers say he had thousands of dollars this cash but no atm card. since then three more suspects were arrested. two were brothers. police recovered cologne cards and swimming tools. investigators say the victims are mostly from crockett and the credit card numbers may have been lifted from a gas pump. but police believe the suspects may have also targeted other cities in the bay area, specifically alameda, santa clara, san mateo, contra costa and san francisco counties. authorities are not saying what nation the four suspects may be tied to.

yes, mike, saturday night because it's going to be rainy so you will want an activity that is inside. maybe with popcorn, all the good stuff. >> nachos. tri-valley 47 and we are definitely seeing that fog. look at the north bay, now the north bay officially covered by that fog. san francisco also very foggy. you can't even see the buildings back there. now the fog has made its way in towards the east bay. so slow down, folks. slow down. let's talk about that visibility. right now novato is down to about a mile and a half. napa less than a half a mile. oakland less than a half a mile. santa rosa down to a half a mile. over all we will see this burn off probably by midmorning. that storm system brought a couple showers overnight but let's talk about our next chance of seeing that rain. taking you through saturday at 3:00 because it looks that the showers move in late into

saturday morning, we've got a system, but the majority of those rain showers will move in saturday night into early sunday morning. and the next seven days we will get several chances of seeing rain around here. now, do remember sunday we have the daylight saving time, we will lose an hour of sleep. monday we might catch scattered showers early on. on tuesday we see another system move in. on wednesday this one is looking like the more powerful storm system with windy conditions thanks to a jet stream. rain is expected to develop into saturday. mike? we are looking out and talking about the weather conditions. foggy for the north bay and the east bay hills. we are not so worried about the south bay right now. peninsula looks great. i haven't seen any more developments regarding that issue around willow. so south 101 looks like it's clear toward palo alto. this is not yet cleared. the freeway through the maze they are open but san pablo avenue between 32nd and 34th.

we have our photographer out there. police still there blocking off both directions that have divided roadway because of an overnight deadly hit and run crash. so we are still following this investigation. you can use adeline and market, but with more folks heading into the area soon this will be an issue. this is not affecting 580 or the rest of the maze, but it is right off of the freeway, the on and off ramps are all open. the bay bridge toll plaza has your metering lights and from time to time we've seen a lot of fog on the east shore freeway. we definitely have that up in the north bay as well. look at this view from our dublin camera, back to the tri-valley facing the dublin interchange, it's fine but these folks through the dublin grade have to travel through some fog there. the clouds in those little valleys, just be aware. back to you. coming up next on "today in the bay," cutting flights, the reason a major airline getting rid of several service options from the bay area's largest airport. you've got problems? we've got a team that helps solve them. putting money back in people's

good morning, thanks for joining us, i'm laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. right now we want to head over to vianey arana keeping track of what we can expect as we walk out the door this morning as well as we progress throughout the day. >> that fog is certainly creeping in. it was along the coast, then it made its way further inland towards the east bay and now it's down near the south bay. look at san jose, we can see the foggy conditions right now and the temperatures are actually fairly warm for the most part. san jose 51 degrees, hayward 50 degrees. we will be topping out in the 60s but i want to show you where the fog s the placement it's starting to keep in towards san jose down to six miles of visibility. out near the santa cruz mountains down to less than half a mile. in oakland it's definitely very dense do unto a mile in napa so be careful. i tweeted this map out as well so you can see exactly what you're dealing with as you head out this morning. we will see this burn off but it's going to take a while. we are going to see more of that

building in. let's get a check of the progress in oakland with mike. that's right, we have our shot here on the roadway, this is san pablo avenue still closed, you see the police activity, but fewer cars in the area. from what i understand this is a scene, folks, first of all of a deadly hit and run crash on san pablo between 32nd and 34th. the coroner's van was heft the scene. this is just off of 580 a couple blocks of san pablo avenue. still light traffic on surface streets through the area. the maze moves well, the backup at the bay bridge and here this morningish color the fog, the east bay, the east shore freeway and throughout the north bay as vianey was outlining. be careful through oakland. anywhere south of that you're doing just fine, tip wall friday, lighter volume. we send it over to you. new this morning and only on "today in the bay" we wanted to get a better understanding of the deadly flu season. overnight we did some investigating and discovered a lot of people who have died from the flu were, in fact, vaccinated. "today in the bay's" kris sanchez live in san jose this

morning with a look at this new data for us. good morning, kris. >> reporter: hi there, laura. 41 californians who died of the flu had gotten a flu vaccine. this is concerning for all kinds of folks who got the flu vaccine and thought that they were protected against this particularly deadly strain of the influenza virus. this is a preliminary number, it is data for about a fifth of the deaths statewide, but still a cause for concern for people who think they are protected. earlier in this flu season the california public health department warned that this year's flu vaccine might not be as effective as in years past. as of last month the centers for disease control estimated that the vaccine was, in fact, only 36% effective. california will put out updated data on flu deaths in two hours, but as of last friday there were 214 flu deaths in california among people younger than 65. off those 97 people had

vaccination regards available. the people who died 58% were not vaccinated, but 42% were and that is the 41 people that we mentioned before. now, even in cases where the flu vaccine is not fully effective, it does help to make that flu last a shorter period and it makes it a lot less severe. so health professionals still advise that you get a flu shot. even though this late in the season we have a couple weeks and there is still widespread flu activity here in california. by the way, here in the bay area 43 people have died from the flu, we don't know how many of them were vaccinated, but when we get those updated numbers from the california department of health we will make sure that we let you know. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> good reminder to wash your hands. >> always. opd is reaching out. so far unsuccessfully. this is to the owners of an oakland coffee shop refusing to serve police in uniform.

that shop is called hasta muerte coffee, it's an employee owned co-op in the fruit vale district known for being anti-establishment. an instagram post said that physical were not being sold there for the physical and emotional safety of customers and workers. coffee workers did not respond to our questions about why. opd says it wants to build a positive relationship with the staff members. students at edna hill middle school in present wood will continue to be in class following news that police arrested three students for making threats against the school on thursday. a classmate reported them after overhearing the threats. neither police nor the school district are talking about the swefks of the threat. those accused wound up in juvenile hall. >> it's important that young people know that actions have consequences. >> i think kids have a heightened awareness of the portrayal of school shootings that have taken place in the media. >> the superintendent says the students are is it i will in juvenile hall this morning.

the big question in florida today, will the governor sign new gun measures into law that include raising the age limit to buy a gun to 21 and arming certain faculty members. the governor said he does not support arming school faculty. he will meet with families impacted by the florida school shooting today to get their take on the bill. for the first time we are hearing the new 911 calls from that horrific day in parkland, florida. most of those calls were from parents who were talking to their children on cell phones as they hid from that shooter in the high school. here is one of those calls. >> hello, 991, ma'am, go ahead. >> my son is in stoneman douglas high school. he said he heard noises and pops and he thinks there is a shooting going on at the school. >> okay. we do have police on scene at the school. police is on scene there. >> is it secure? >> the fear and the pain in that mother's voice. you can hear that right there. now, in one of those calls the parent tells her child to play

dead if that shooter gets close by. >> it is 6:35. happening today on treasure island, ground breaking of a new safe house for at risk teenagers. it will be named after the late san francisco mayor ed lee. mayor lee helped make the new campus possible. these are in fact renderings of what it would look like. a special garden will be dedicated to lee. his widow will preside over today's ground breaking ceremony. it looks like warriors star steph curry has taken another hit on that same ankle. curry reinjured the ankle in the first quarter of last night's game. he did not return. this morning the team says curry will be out for at least the next two games. the dubs pulled out a close one last night, beating san antonio 110-107. thank goodness for alerts i turned on the last few minutes. over here we're watching this

backup at the richmond-san rafael bridge. this is on the richmond side your westbound commute. a typical flow, a little lighter but the backup forming. eastbound coming over from the north bay into richmond we do have debris reported in lanes mid span across the bridge. watch that lower deck it may be an issue. so far the speed sensors are okay. this orange highlighting that's fog creeping through the north bay and over in toward the east bay. although that live shot from the toll plaza didn't show a problem, you saw the clouds in the background. there's oakland near the bottom of the screen and the rest of the bay. we still have an easy drive for much of the rest of the bay. i do want to point out even though those speed sensors like good we have this issue on the right side westbound your commute direction on the san mateo bridge and low clouds hovering right around that deck. >> a little cloud cover right ther

there. >> a couple hours shy of another system making its arrival and that is going to impact your weekend as far as rain goes. let's talk about who is going to see the rain and who might not see any rain at all. saturday's forecast is expected to see an incoming system that's going to bring rain. we might see light showers move in overnight through early morning which means we will get spotty rain early on, even along the coast, but the bigger storm system moves in later into the afternoon and evening and it looks like it's going to affect more inland spots and the south bay, monterey area. 61 degrees for the bay, 64 for inland and 59 degrees in terms of your temperatures. they will remain fairly comfortable and then that storm system is expected to carry on through overnight into saturday -- rather sunday and what's going to happen on sunday is we're going to continue to see the scattered showers pushing through, a little bit more widespread as we head in towards sunday, but it looks like it's going to taper off at around 4:00, 5:00 p.m. and then saturday into sunday we will see a shift. sunday night we will see the

evening clear out a bit versus saturday when we are expecting the rain to make its way into the evening. bay 62 degrees, inland 66 and then we will kind of end our sunday off on a dry note once that rain clears out sunday night. then we get more rain into the workweek. i will go over that in just a bit and send it back to you. >> we need to keep the umbrella handy. thank you. coming up next on "today in the bay" at 6:39, creating more affordable housing across california. what some of the candidates for governor say we should be doing to fix our housing crisis. plus -- >> here it is. >> here it is. an engagement ring up for grabs. the reason this man is offering to give this ring away for free. a historic announcement coming out of pyongyang and out of washington, d.c. we will bring you all the details. and we are following the money on wall street right now. taking a look and you can see the dow actually is up 138 points. it actually jumped 150 points at

the opening, this after a strong jobs report on this jobs friday.

good morning. it is 6:42 and the biggest impact we're seeing right now in terms of our weather is all of that dense fog down to less than a half a mile in santa rosa, but novato down to several feet directly in front of you. be careful if you will be driving through any of these

spots. we're seeing fog move in towards the south bay and santa cruz mountains. we will keep a close eye on when this is expected to burn off and when our next chance of rain will come into play. the bay bridge toll plaza we know about the traffic even on a friday but those low clouds you can't even see the oakland hills from this shot, it's affecting folks drives on the freeways as well. we will talk about where else we're seeing slowing. as the race for governor heats up housing squarely in the spotlight. all six candidates for governor appeared at a forum in sacramento yesterday. they talked about their ideas for more affordable housing. republicans say it starts with fewer rules and regulations. democrats including gavin newsom and anti-know rerag is a had their own ideas that include tax credits or bringing back redevelopment agencies. >> we want to increase the affordable housing tax credit from $85 million to $500 million. with he want to significantly increase our affordable housing. >> the state needs to put a housing trust fund together.

put our bonds in a trust fund that leverages cities and counties who are putting up their own money. >> one study finds 180,000 new units are needed every year to keep up with demand in california. according to the department of finance the state has fallen short in recent jooes by about 80,000 per year. a major announcement regarding one of the biggest decisions facing california, who will be the next governor. on may 8th nbc bay area and silicon valley community foundation will host a live senate featuring the top candidates. >> the prime time event will happen at san jose's california neater, it will be moderated by "meet the press" moderator chuck todd. we will broadcast that debate live on nbc bay area and telemundo 48. it's at 6:30 on may 8th. at 6:44 russia front and center in washington and on tv less than three weeks after special counsel robert mueller charged 13 russians with camp ring with the 2016 u.s. election. nbc's megyn kelly is asking

russia president vladimir putin for answers. >> why would you allow an attack like this on the united states? >> translator: why have you decided the russian authority, myself included, gave anybody permission to do this? >> confronting putin airs tonight at 10:00 p.m. right here on nbc bay area. history in the making, president trump says he will meet with the leader of north korea. >> scott mcgrew, it goes from name calling to a summit meeting. >> it's flabbergasting. they call each other names, threaten nuclear war on each other and now president trump and north korean leader kim jong-un say you will meet. the south koreans were the ones who announced that last night at the white house. they brought the invitation from north korea's leader to washington. for historical context it is not unusual for a north korean leader to invite a u.s. president to talks. president obama said the u.s. would only engage in multi-lateral talks, other countries had to participate, too, and the thinking behind that was you didn't want to give

world leaders the idea that obtaining nuclear weapons automatically got them a seat at the table. that possesses an atom bomb doesn't make them legitimate. but a lot has changed. first, obama's strategy obviously did not work. secondly, north korea has gotten suddenly really good at developing intercontinental ballistic missiles. not only do they have nuke here weapons, in the last few months they have developed the technology to deliver those nuclear weapons to american cities. this is by any measure the most important positive thing to happen at the trump white house since president trump's success in appointing a supreme court judge. president trump tweeted a little bit about it last night but has been largely silent since. the big question at this point do we have the bench, the expertise to enter these negotiations? president trump has not appointed an ambassador to south korea and america's top phi, the special representative for north korea policy joseph yun quit,
