yesterday, mountain view police also contacted her at about 2:00 a.m. yesterday morning, and the san bruno police chief doesn't want to comment about that, but there were details that the family notified the police department after they found her on a missing person's report out of southern california that they warned mountain view police that she could be dangerous and heading to youtube, but the mountain view police department said they could not do anything about that. the san bruno police chief, though, emphasizes if anyone seeing any warnings like this from family, co-workers, they should report it to police immediately. now, this investigation has wrapped up here at the crime scene, but the suspect's car was taken away, and the police chief says that they will still collect evidence out of that car and federal investigators have been called in, but so far this is still considered a local investigation. reporting live in san bruno for

whether or not to comply with mueller's request. the president is eager for a sitdown and sees the latest news as a good sign, but other folks are not so sure. >> it's not that, oh, thank goodness if you're in the white house, the president's not a criminal target. it's, oh, my. the president is a subject of this investigation. >> this news is news. and it's certainly delighted and relieved the president. >> in the meantime, the president continues his tough talk on immigration. yesterday he threatened to send military troops to the border until his planned border wall is built. our scott mcgrew will have a closer look in his "checks and balances" segment at 5:45. >> it's 5:08 right now. in the bay area, taking public transit, going to the golden gate bridge, the vita parking lot closed to drivers through saturday. starting at 11:00 this morning to 5:00 p.m. each day,

transportation officials are closing the parking lots, because they're expecting lots of spring break traffic there. we'll see about that. especially when talking about intense rain headed towards the bay area through tomorrow and into friday and saturday. so let's talk about that 24-hour temperature change. now, we are seeing a couple spots running slightly warmer at this hour than yesterday. san jose, 5 degrees warmer. remember, an approaching subtropical system which means it's going to get hotter and muggier feeling around here because of that tropical air. hayward running about 5 degrees warmer. and in santa cruz, 8 degrees warmer. temperatures still in the 40s and 50s for the most part. the temperature trend remains seasonable, meaning one more day of climbing into the 60s and some 70s on the map. a high of 68 degrees by 1:00, san jose seeing a predicted high of 72, 73 degrees throughout the bay area and then we begin to see an increase in the cloud

cover. notice we're expecting a lot of that cloud cover compared to those mostly clear skies with a couple low clouds we saw yesterday. i'll break that incoming storm down, first, check in with mike. >> vianey, visit a shot i showed a few minutes ago this time with brake lights visible and now starting to clear. north 880, north of the colosseum. the map shows that same zone basically from about high street up to 23rd. the northern fringe showed improvement. starting to clear that overnight construction. a brief traffic break removing the equipment and maybe adding five minutes on to your morning commute. we all try to cut it very close, just a warning. over towards the south, slow traffic. same thing for the altamont pass for 580 westbound. and in dublin a good amount of traffic on the roadway just going at the speed limit. here, not a lot of cars. across the golden gate bridge from the north bay, easy drive into the city. back to you. >> thanks, mike.

state lawmakers are pushing to in the wake of the stephon clark shooting, california state lawmakers are pushing to change the standards that officers use to decide whether to use deadly force. family members proposed a bill yesterday. it restricts officers to open fire only when necessary rather than when it seems reasonable. lawmakers say the goal, encourage officers to diffuse confrontations or use less deadly weapons. a san francisco community has been pushing for this day for quite some time, and in a few hours, the city supervisor will reveal the new name for the street in the balboa park neighborhood. neighbors have been pushing for the renaming of the avenue near city college nap street is tied to former mayor james delaine known for his anti-asian and anti-immigrant policies. among the names considered is

earlier this morning. you can see the san bruno police officers are still here on-scene this morning. the police chief said the for instanceices unit wrapped up about a few hours ago. so the youtube headquarters building has been officially handed back to youtube but the streets are still closed off. also we're told employees are hearing all meetings for today have been canceled, and the employees are being redirected to other campuses. as far as a motive, investigators say the suspect's family said she "hated" youtube. several law enforcement sources confirmed this is 39-year-old nasim aghdam in youtube videos. in one video she complained youtube discriminatened and filtered hoar content. that youtube placed an age restriction on a workout video because they were too racy, but youtube failed to do the same with miley cyrus, she says, and

nicki minaj videos. her car towed away from the crime scene. yesterday morning, a missing personal report. mountain view police confirm they found her asleep in a car in a parking lot. the family say they warned police aghdam might do something at youtube but police told them there was nothing they could do. >> we're still sifting through a lot of evidence and a lot of evidence we don't even have access to that hopefully will provide us with a more specific or clear picture to definitively say. >> a this is what she was upset about and, b, this is why. >> reporter: around lunchtime yesterday aghdam opened fire on the youtube campus wounding three people and then killing herself, and at the top of the hour, more on those youtube videos and the possible motive in this case. reporting live in san bruno for "today in the bay." >> sharon, thank you. and "today in the bay," mark

tracking that river that may creep into the area, but right now the system is still on tap to make its way on thursday. widespread friday. another system, a cold front that is going to interact picking up winds saturday. means, gusty. especially saturday morning. plans to be outside between 1:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., gusty. meaning that sideways rain, the biggest impact, heaviest rainfall may come at that time. now the good news now, models are showing the system making its exit saturday night, which means it may clear out just in time for you to enjoy a dry sunday. we're going to cross our fingers on that one, because the timing intensity changes are ongoing as of now. 62 degrees for your expected high along the coast. basically inland, 65. temperatures running slightly cooler. because of that incoming cold

that's a big step. we really haven't done that before, or certainly not very much before. but we will be doing things with mexico and they have to do it, otherwise i'm not going to do the nafta deal. >> now, the white house later clarified it will use national guard troops not the u.s. army and we haven't done this before. it is not clear. the president realizes putting u.s. troops on the border not that uncommon. both george w. bush and barack obama did it again, using national guard troops. the law says they is only assist, not participate in law enforcement. i talked to some of the california national guard who took part under president obama. they did a lot of work watching the border and radioing in to bord border patrol which is allowed to take action. president trump is worrying about 1,500 refugees making

their way through mexico calling it a caravan. that caravan stopped as mexican authorities try to figure out what to do. there's nothing in international law saying mexico has to stop hondurans or guatemalans from entering the u.s. president trump is concerned if the refugees make it to the border, american immigration law says we have to give them protection if fleeing danger, and that involves court hearings to determine they're status. president trump calls that a whole, big wasted procedure that has to take place. meanwhile, the "washington post" reports essential counsel robert mueller told president trump he is not the target of a criminal probe in the russian investigation, and that mueller still wants to answer -- have trump answer questions. the "post" says the president's lawyers worry that's a trick to get him to testify. for instance, the president may not have committed any crimes with russia, but afterwards, if he moved to obstruct the investigation. we look at what the president is up to each morning.

haven't been many tweets, but we'll continue to follow them. you can follow me on twitter @scottmcgrew. >> thanks, scott. a live look at at&t park. it's really pretty much quiet there right now, but, of course, going to be back to business in about 12 hours. >> the giants are holding a kids' opening day promotion for the second of two games against seattle, and the mariners. yesterday's home opener did not go as planned for them. giants pitcher ty locke struggled on the mound. the giant lost the game 6-4. we had a fantastic time as you know. we took our midday show on the road. don't miss friday's game when the giants play the dodgers, and mario says excitement is coming up related to that. the manager. a game you'll be able to watch right here on nbc bay area. your broadcast home for the san francisco giants. sometimes it's a little divisive, though. >> like -- >> living in l.a.
