mostly cloudy for the peninsula. and starting out in the mid-50s, watch out for the drizzle and fog in spots and it's going to be very nice in martinez today with those highs reaching in the mid-60s, we'll talk about that weekend coming up and mike says we may have a problem in the tri valley. >> just hearing about this. overall first of all to start our commute as you would imagine, things are moving great. there's a little blip over here in palo alto. kari just showed the live shot. all lanes cleared north 101 and university but slowing on the sensors and folks held up in a quick traffic break at embarcadero. all lanes are open. in the south county 101 is at speed, san martin through morgan hill and into san jose and no delays for the summit, highway 17. over here we're looking at behind my head the little slowing over there out of the altamont pass. the construction cleared and

commute has begun on rash and m. i'm hearing it may be scattered across all lanes but do not hear about a full closure. i'm tracking that for you as well. the san mateo bridge westbound across the span, we can see clearly but we did have low clouds and fog as well yesterday. so there may be an issue as far as visibility later on but right now we're looking fine. there's mist on the lens that did hit near the berkeley curve. once again those crews just about clear the last of the vehicles here north 101 and university. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. a potentially big day in court for one of the 49ers top players, ruben foster may learn if his felony domestic violence case will go to trial. a judge today is expected to make a final ruling. police in los gatos arrested foster in february. his girlfriend at the time claimed foster dragged her and punched her in the head at least eight times. last week on the witness stand she said she made the whole thing up. foster still faces a separate

marijuana charge. he is suspended from team activity. >> a follow-up to a story we told you about yesterday. do you recognize this man? concord police are hoping these new pictures will help track down a man who attacked a 93-year-old woman and stole her purse. this is from a surveillance camera inside the bank of america that is over by sun valley mall. the assault happened outside the bank just minutes later and ann peterson she broke her hip during the attack. right now at 5:02, we're bringing b.a.r.t. to livermore, an idea we've been talking you about for years now. tomorrow we could learn the fate of the proposal. the board of directors expected to make a pivotal decision that will determine how to make that dream into reality for or for some a nightmare. bob redell is live with what's

next. this may ease that congestion. >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus. to bring b.a.r.t. to livermore specifically to the proposed location behind me on the intersection of isabel and boulevard, would cost $1.6 billion. more than a million of which still needs to be raised according to mercury news. i do want to show you this map we put together for you on your tv screen to give you a better idea what the transit agency is considering. the line currently ends at the pleasanton dublin station. this proposal would extend b.a.r.t. another five and a half miles east along 580 to isabel, the right side of the tv screen but stop several miles short of the altamont pass. critics say this isabel location would not help alleviate the crush of central valley commuters coming over the pass into the tri-valley. they suggest b.a.r.t. has to go even further to let's say greenville which is the last

exit before you get on the altamont. when the b.a.r.t. board meets tomorrow, they have two decisions to make. one, whether or not to approve the final environmental impact report surrounding the isabel station and two what to do next. the board has five options. they can do what we've been talking about. they can extend regular b.a.r.t. to isabel and also extend using light rail trains that run on diesel electric. that would passengers to transfer at dublin/pleasanton and two options involve buses and no rail. the final option, the board could not do anything, there would be no b.a.r.t. extension into livermore. the b.a.r.t. board meets 5:00. as always, you have an opportunity to publicly make your feelings known to the members of the board. reporting live in livermore, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thanks so much, bob. new for us this morning, we now know that the santa clara city council plans to do with dominic

caserta's empty seat. you may remember last week caserta resigned after being accused of sexual harassment. >> live in santa chair ray with the steps the city leaders will take against caserta and the new lawsuit against the city, kris. >> reporter: it seems at this point city council is going to appoint someone rather than allow the voters to decide who will represent them on the city council. that's at least for now. this is video from the city council meeting just last night where the council voted on a short term fix to that sudden resignation of city councilman dominic caserta. that move was not without opposition. two council members wanted to leave the seat open all together and until voters can decide in the november election. so what now you might be wondering? they'll have a chance to apply to be appointed to that open seat and then will submit to open public interviews. at the same time, the city is also dealing with that lawsuit

you mentioned brought by asian american citizens who say the current election system is not fair. in the last week or so the judge seemed to agree with them. these are two items that could further divide the santa clara city council, that is already quite divided. kris sanchez, "today in the bay." right now at 5:06, rallying to save their teacher. tonight heritage high school students in brickwood will fight to keep their well life teacher from being transferred to another school. here's the back story for you. history teacher tyler rust was videotaped taking the knee during the flag raising ceremony. that move sparked controversy on social media and now the school district saying they are transferring him so he won't be a distraction to the learning process. but some students are determined to stop that move and even started a petition. >> he's a bold teacher and makes bold comments that students

don't always know how to take. >> we reached out to rust by phone and he says his intent was never to disrespect the military or the school. he says that he took a knee to raise awareness to police brutality and the killing of unarmed african-americans. 5:07. a live look at capitol hill in washington. that is where democratic lawmakers are outraged over a meeting planned for tomorrow. the meet being will rineview to secret documents. the meeting is supposed to include intelligence leadsers and two senior house republicans. but no democrats. democrats are demanding they be included in any private meeting surrounding an informant. one intelligence expert believe he knows what an fbi informant would have been looking for. >> they were spying on a term i don't particularly like, but on what the russians were doing. >> it's unprecedented and outrageous and overtones of things that would be done in a banana republic.

>> i find it's extraordinarily troubling. >> some republicans are now calling for a second special counsel. in the meantime, rudy giuliani now tells the washington street journal the president may refuse to sit down with special counsel robert mueller. right now at 5:08, getting out the door in san jose, it starts out with some cloudy skies and it's going to be a beautiful day with some clearing reaching into the low 70s in morgan hill and 70 degrees there and 71 in downtown san jose. east bay up to 69 in walnut creek, very koum fortable but it will be windy at times. those gusts kicking up to 15 to 20 miles per hour also windy in livermore, 69 degrees. it will be cloudy and foggy in half moon bay. only up to 57 degrees and 69 in palo alto. we will not shake the crowds in san francisco for much of the day, 60 in the mission district

and north bay heading up to 65 degrees with clearing this afternoon. we do stilg have a chance of rain in forecast and i'll detail that in a few minutes. mike has an update in the crash in fremont. >> it's the only real thing going on -- not the only real thing. i'm watching the real things, real roads where it's green for sensors, over here this is the issue i was worried about a crash which it sounded like debris was across all lanes of the southbound 680. that is not the case but equally as dramatic, the car that crashed into the center divide south 680 at washington as you're coming around the bend towards the iring ving ton district. chp still getting out there. there's a little slowing that shows up. here's the volume of traffic westbound 580 through dublin. you're at speed right here and also the dublin interchange where 680 takes you down towards the crash. back to you. >> coming up here on "today in the bay," lucky to be alive. >> it was a mean one. my time was up.

>> new this morning, imagine being hit by lava. the man who did and lived to tell his story. how he survived coming up. looks like another rough day on wall street. look out below. the new technolo save your ch >> people don't need to die. >> plus, saving lives, the new technology that could save your child's life during a school shooting.

mike traffic tease

good wednesday morning, you walk out the door and see clouds. we'll see the clouds throughout much of the morning, even in san jose as we start out in sunnyvale. we'll see those temperatures going from the upper 50s into the upper 6 0e's. it should be all clear by 3:00 today but still cooler than normal and we'll keep this kind of weather for the next couple of days. but there's a major warm-up in our memorial weekend forecast. i'll detail that coming up in about five minutes. >> good drive right here, southbound 101 is clear sailing from san rafael down towards the golden gate bridge. watch the low clouds quar rkari talking about, may be a spritz on windshield. >> it could be a tough day on wall street. a number of things are not working out the way washington was hoping. president trump said on tuesday he was uncertain whether the summit with north korean leader kim jong-un would go forward and washington has made it clear military action is the alternative.

the chinese trade talks are not going as well as hoped either. pressure on the market. futures call for broader -- the broader indexes to increase their losses today. the new york stock exchange has named a new leader. she'll take the reigns on friday. she's the first woman to lead the nyse. >> there are very few women in finance. very few women in technology and you're at the cross sections of finance and technology. it's a male dominated environment and that hasn't changed quite as rapidly as other industries have changed. >> the house approved a measure to put pressure on banks after the financial disaster ten years ago. the president is expected to sign that today. tesla says it will fix its model 3 after consumer reports said it didn't brake well. consumer reports says the tesla model 3 takes a longer distance to break than the f-150 pickup truck from forward. tesla ceoelon musk says they

will fix the problem by sending out a software update. consumer reports responded saying in part in this written message, if tesla can update the brakes over the air, an industry first, we'd be happy to retest our model 3. now, can you look at that and find the spot in which they are sort of raising their eyebrow? that little aside that says, in an industry first, if you can fix the brakes with software, you go right ahead. >> thanks, scott. it is quarter after 5: lafr va s to spread across hawaii's big island. we've seen it play out for days now. again this morning there's a big concern, lava could reach a power plant, no one can do anything about it and incredibly only one person has gotten hurt during this eruption. his name is darrel clinton and he's talking about it for the first time. this past weekend a piece of

flying lava hit him in the leg. listen as he describes the moment it happened. now little warning, it's grueso gruesome. >> fell on the floor and then my leg -- my foot fell off my leg right here so it was like the hinge where my ankle and my leg bone were detached. it was a mean one. and it could have hit anywhere else and that would have been all over. >> coming up at 7:00, the "today" show -- i can't even talk after that. goodness. the "today" show has another live report from the danger zone. but how rare -- can you imagine being hit by lava? >> you see it and you just -- get nervous. glad he's okay though. >> live to tell about it. >> right. >> 5:16 right now. new for you this morning, two planes clipped wings. this is at burbank airport. no one was hurt and the damage to both planes was minimal and

happened last night. one plane was taxiing and the other was just parked. some small houses creating a big buzz in the south bay. building so-called granny units or garage apartments is about to get a little easier in san jose. city council will hear that ontg trust of silicon valley is hosting a workshop tonight. the point of tonight's workshop is to answer who can build an accessory dwelling unit, what they are calling them. it starts at 6:30 at the alam rock library in san jose. for more information you can head over to housing trust.org. >> you want to feel like a kid this morning, how about a kid in the candy store. you can head to chicago right now. that's where they are holding an actual sweet and snacks expo, think international auto show meets 7-eleven. we're talking about sweet snacks from 90 countries and around the world. this includes twix, white chocolate version which sounds

really good and cheese-its duo and extra salty chooez-its with sweet caramel corn flavor. i love when when laura brings that candy in. >> i do bring it in. >> i always have a candy bowl. >> i have got breaking news the duos, caramel corn, i got them at the store, caramel corn and cheese popcorn called a chicago mix. >> from garretts. >> i picked it up. >> you did? >> i like it. >> what's interesting, there are some test markets so maybe -- >> maybe i'm in. >> where you are. it could be. >> typically because i always buy the weird stuff. >> you heard it here first. >> that's different. >> really cool. >> remember the warmer weather is coming for that bathing suit weather too. >> absolutely. laura has to put out that reminder. take it easy this morning. and we're going to have cool

weather to start out and it's hard to imagine that in a couple of days up to the low 90s as we look at this view in emeryville, it's misting and drizzling. we have the clouds and fog to start out this morning and you can check out the 7-day forecast coming up already at the bottom of the screen starting in the south bay as we go to concord we'll be at 59 degrees at 9:00 and mix of sun and clouds throughout the morning as it gradually warms up and once we get that sunshine we'll be up to 70 degrees. highs today up to 64 in oakland. 59 in san francisco. really not much clearing again there today. san jose 71 degrees. and livermore today 69. so overall a fairly cool day and we're planning for those graduations and all of the celebrations going on around the bay area. tomorrow night, the fireworks show for the 2018 graduates at san francisco state will be at at&t park. i know you're wondering, will it

be foggy? will we be able to seat fireworks? looks like it will be cloudy but not foggy. you should have a pretty clear view. also we'll be tracking a slight chance of rain as this system moves in from the pacific. it looks to fizzle out for the most part but could bring in spotty showers between thursday night and early friday morning. but chances aren't really high at this point but we could once again see those spotty showers moving through early on friday morning. if you're going to the sierra this weekend, i know a lot of people have plans for the four-day holiday weekend, it's going to still be cool with partly cloudy skies and chance of afternoon hours and storms. clearing out for saturday and memorial day. on facebook and twitter, we'll look at the full weekend forecast in a little less than 20 minutes. you're still tracking the tri-valley drive. >> building out of the altamont towards the rest of the tri-valley and this issue for

680. i guess i should get out of your way and let everybody pick their pattern. 101 shows slowing and registering on the speed sensors as well. roadways clear on the peninsula. these lanes are clear but there's activity in the center divide. two vehicles are there and they may need a second tow truck to clear this. a little distraction for the flashing lights, nothing major but showed the traffic off of 580 and altamont pass. over here contra costa looks great. highway 4 slows through pitts burg and bay pont. watch for debris out of lanes towards the bay bridge toll plaza. we'll see slowing and transit systems are doing great. b.a.r.t. heading under the bay no problem for the trans bay too. i'll show you that bay bridge toll plaza coming up. back to you. >> thanks, mike. >> coming up next on "today in the bay" arks massive data breach at the east bay hospital. >> plus, we investigate -- >> it's not mine. >> risky restaurant practices

that could make you sick. up next, we investigate how some local eateries may be gambling with your health. >> on this wednesday, are you already thinking about the weekend? on facebook right now mike inouye is helping you plan ahead. our partners at waze have numbers about how many people are actually going to certain hot spots. like mike sage joins that conversation this morning. time is 5:22, you're watching "today in the bay." i'm dianne feinstein and i approve this message.

i support the affordable care act, and voted against all trump's attempts to repeal it. but we need to do more. i believe in universal health care. in a public health option to compete with private insurance companies. and expanding medicare to everyone over 55.

and i believe medicare must be empowered to negotiate the price of drugs. california values senator dianne feinstein

welcome back, it's 5:24 on your wednesday morning. restaurants risking your health. our investigative unit went undercover to examine how restaurant owners are gambling with food safety. >> here's vickie nguyen with what she found. >> reporter: we went with a temperature gun and camera to see how your food is transported from the supply store to the table. and day after day, we saw raw beef and chicken and seafood sitting out for hours wio refrigeration before it went to local restaurants to be served. in one case, food sat for more than four hours before it arrived at the restaurant. state health codes require any potentially hazardous food like meat and dairy to be kept below 45 degrees because of the risk for food poisoning. in santa clara, more than 300 people a year report getting sick after eating at the restaurant from things like e.

coli and salmonella and nora virus. ignoring temperature controls can be a big can'ter to food born illness. to see the full restaurant and listen to explanations to those we caught in the act, go to bay area.com/weinvestigate. >> if you have a story to our investigative unit, you can give them a call 888-996-tips or visit our website, nbcbayarea.com/weinvestigate. >> new this morning, a texas company is pitching a high tech response to school shootings. here's how it works. if the system hears a gunshot, it activates and sends out text messages on phones and computers and it automatically closes and locks doors. company president says it also calls 911 and can focus cameras on an active shooter or victim and send locations to first responders the company decided to start selling that system to schools after last week's shooting in santa fe. it cost anywhere between 3,000

and $50,000. >> important news to tell you about. if your doctor is part of the john muir medical group, there's word muof a data breach. patients who received treatment during the last three-year period ending in february of last year. former employee took social security numbers and treatment information and test results from the muir doctors group. if you haven't been notified just yet, you're in the clear. >> it is 5:27 right now. coming up next, bringing driverless cars to bay area roads. the move one bay area city council is taking to make sure it doesn't make your commute more congested. plus -- >> i was shocked and scare and screaming. >> a sheriff k-9 bites a man in the east bay. new footage of the attack and explanation from deputies this morning. creek

good m very good wednesday morning to you. taking a live look outside. we're in the east bay this morning over in walnut creek. nice start to our morning there across the bay area. cloudy in some spots. good morning to you. thanks for joining us, i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. we want to get to meteorologist kari hall with what to expect as we head out the door. jackets, umbrella, what? >> you'll need a jacket. this is may gray in full effect as we look outside in palo alto this morning. it will be slow to clear in some spots but will be a little nicer for the inland areas.

as we get a look at palo alto, we'll start out in the upper 50s rising in the low 60s today still a little cooler than normal. we'll have this cool weather for next several days and then look what happens as we head into memorial day. some 90s inland and san francisco heading into the low 70s. i'll talk more about all of the events going on this weekend. there's so much. that's coming up in seven minutes and mike, you have two notes for drivers in the east bay. >> the first of course is that the bay bridge toll plaza backed up because the metering lights are on. you notice there's a little glow to the lights, a lot of moisture in the area and kari is talking about low clouds and mist and drizzle. we see that on the lens at the berkeley curve. even though there's no slowing, you may have to contend with slicker roadways, that's a gentle curve. doeg ju as you look at the map, there's a little slowing on the upper east shore. there may be debris before you get to the warren freeway. i think it's out of the lanes

and do still track this with a crash south 680 in washington trying to get the cars removed but they are in the center divide. >> mike is always watching the cars on the roadway, what about speeding up that commute. san francisco leaders are asking the state to require driverless car companies to share gps and other data if you're going to be on our roads. pete suratos joins us with how this will help tackle our traffic congestion problem. good morning, pete. >> good morning to you, laura, you've got san francisco city officials warning traffic data because they feel it could impact traffic as car s head towards the city, to get that traffic out to combat the problem. the california public utilities commission will vote on regulations but they want companies such as lyft and uber to share gps and other data with the city. the claimants are saying it's going to tackle traffic

congestion issues and also help them make better investment decisions when it comes to transportation networks in san francisco. now the companies are totally against this but they are open to sharing safety data. they want to keep it to just this scope. they also say that the traffic data should stay confidential. that's the argument and then of course the topic has been met with resistance in the past. the pushback is not surprising from the companies but a vote on all of this will take place on may 31st by the california public utilities commission. ro rrting live, pete suratos, "today in the bay." >> new this morning, san jose city council is putting off accepting an independent police auditor's report. this examining those complaints against the police department. now the police association tells kris sanchez that the mayor called that report misleading. the ipa agreed that the city clerk writes that the report needs to clarify data about race dispari disparity, they deferred

septemb acceptance, we went through the report yesterday morning on "today in the bay," the story is still on our website but essentially it shows the number of police complaints found to be valid went up 16%. there was a decrease in the use of force and an increase of officer discipline. >> it is 5:34 right now. authorities are downplaying accusations made by one man who believes a deputy purposely sicked his k-9 dog on him during an arsz. cell phone video call the whole thing early monday in castro valley. the video shows the deputy's car door open and the dog jumps out and attacks. >> hey -- >> joshua phillips believes the deputy commanded the dog to attack with flashlight beam. >> the dog walks out and he shines the light on me and dog attacks me when he shines the light on me. you know how these dogs are trained. >> this was an accident. we have no reason to bite this

gentlemen. we would not want to do that. >> the allameda county sheriff' get says a button got pushed allowing the dog to get oust car. they apologized and promised to pay any related health bills. >> follow-ups to a story we first brought you last week. a strink of violent chain snatching, surveillance image helped crack the case. may 6th at the valero gas station, surveillance video showing the attack leading police to identify 22-year-old jermaine smith of pittsburg police already arrested him on different charges and already in custody when fremont investigators connected those dots. happening today, another possible name change to tell you about. san francisco leaders debate the controversy surrounding the small presidio playground. that playground is named after julius kahn, a bay area congressman who critics say supported the chinese exclusion act back in 1882.

they say it is time for a name change similar to the one that recently happened for the former justin herman plaza. a supervisor's committee will debate the issue this morning. >> talks to make a major south bay road safer. the drive runs through sunnyvale and milpitas. the transportation authority is asking people to share their thoughts on how to improve the 7-mile stretch of road. it is home to companies like samsung and cisco and levee stadium. you can also attend tonight's public meeting at the lakewood park building in sunnyvale. nfl owners will keep talking about a national anthem policy. obviously this hits close to home, former 49ers quarterback colinkaepernick started the controversy. owners spent hours talking about this. espn is detailing the possible rules. may be letting each team decide

its own policy. they can also tell players who don't want to stand to stay in the locker room during the anthem and punish teams who don't stand with a 15-yard penalty and/or fines at contract language that requires players to stand, leave the current policy in place which states that players should stand for the anthem, but does not require them to do to. >> 5:37 right now. this one really hurts a lot of us warriors fans this morning. >> some of you may ask, what happened yesterday. >> what happened? >> last night against houston game four. didn't go quite as planned. the warriors had the 12-point lead early in the fourth but went cold. houston certainly heated up. the warriors still had a chance to tie but they couldn't hit the key shot when it mattered. they lost it 95-92. the series is now tied at two games each. here's steve kerr after. >> i felt like in the fourth

quarter we ran out of gas, scored 12 points. they just outplayed us in the fourth and they earned it. >> the warriors don't have time to get down about this one. game five is tomorrow night in houston. the warriors planning to host a watch party at oracle. cheer them on from home. >> i don't know why they didn't score the last shot, my wife was helping out from home, she was hovering. all right, folks, we have more games to go but we have this, not a game we're looking at the closure for one of your caldecott tunnel bores, in towards san francisco, the opposite direction away from the bridge, we're looking at eastbound 24, one of your bores is closed because of a crash. it sounds like they have to move vehicles involved and that's counter commute towards orinda towards oakland. that shouldn't present a major problem but you have one open. we'll track this and the progress. meanwhile the rest of the bay shows a smooth drive. there's a crash in fremont and

tracking 680 over washington. we'll outline that further on the show here but we want to look at the low clouds hovering above the deck here. drivers are okay across the golden gate bridge. that's a cool shot. >> right. >> well. >> can't see a lot of things. is that going to clear uphe weekend. we have memorial day coming. >> this weekend will be clearing up but as far as today, not so much. we are looking ahead to the weekend and it's going to be a nice one. there will also be a slight chance of spotty showers very early friday morning. it's going to be cool. 62 degrees. this weekend in san francisco, we have carnivale and parade and it's going to be beautiful. best day on sunday, 70 degrees and also on memorial day, 73 degrees. if you're going to san jose, maybe you'll check out the taco festival. it's going to be cool on friday, saturday is your day to get out there. 69 degrees and starting to warm up on sunday, very warm on memorial day. then monterey, there will be the california roots festival

mike traffic tease good wednesday morning, we wake up to clouds. we're seeing that right now as we take a live look outside in san jose. it will be clearing out for the afternoon. later on this morning it will look nicer, 58 degrees will be the start temperature at 9:00, reaching in the low 70s today. very comfortable but still cool for the coast. i'll talk more about that also a slight rain chance and major warm-up in our forecast coming up in less than five minutes.

>> over the last five minutes, i saw traffic break, a northbound slowing the 101 approaching wil low. it has now cleared. we'll show you what else is going on. we have an alert heading over orinda. >> we'll keep checking back with you. it is 5:44, a scary day for bank workers in antioch, they tell police someone robbed the chase bank on delta fair. demanded money and told a teller had a gun but never showed it. be careful who you open your door to. suspects in morgan hill are forcing their way inside. latest one happened yesterday morning. here are some of the images of the suspects captured by surveillance cameras. investigators say the men park anywhere car in the area and walk to the front door of a home ringing the doorbell and when someone answers they force their way inside to steal jewelry and cash. >> 5:44. today the former san jose state students charged with sexually assaulting three classmates goes back to court.

this is the plea hearing so we could get a big update in this case. his name, luis vin goss, we've been covering this for a while as a result -- the assault allegedly happened in a dorm. >> it is quarter to 6:00. now to a shocking story we've been telling you about for about a year now. a san pablo man charged with killing his exgirlfriend in front of her children will return to court today. there's video of mcbride from the first court appearance last year a few days after investigators say he shot and killed rashon da franklin of richmond. the shooting was caught on surveillance camera. she was shot while driving her children to school. the children saw the entire thing. >> 5:45, the president is returning to a familiar theme this morning. >> he'll once again attack the gang ms13. scott mcgrew joins us now. >> he'll do it from a few miles away from the place where he did it last time. he's returning to new york's long island for a round table on
