very chilly. so we are right in the middle of fall, with some very dry air, and that causes a wide range in temperatures, starting out with some upper 40s in willow glen this morning. we'll be at 49 degrees at 7:00, and look at that, we are going to see as the sun rises some warmer air moving in. normally you're up to 76 degrees, but we're going to be a little bit above that as we go into the afternoon. fruitvale b.a.r.t. station looking good, all nice and clear as you get ready to head out. mike has a look at the commute. >> a little nicer and clearer. still a little slowing, remnants of the crews clearing up as you head westbound 80 into san pablo. the overnight crews around carlson approaching central look like there's a few more cones and flashing lights. watch that portion toward san pablo dam road. everything else is moving nicely. west 24 the caldecott tunnel, bore number two, be careful over in the area a distraction.

we'll track both of the areas. there could be issues with distraction and slowing richmond bay bridge. the rest of the area clear as a bell. now we want to get you caught up on breaking news, an apartment fire in:can cloud cover county going up in flames and our cameras outside getting an inside look at the damage left behind. that fire is stirring up a lot of controversy among neighbors. "today in the bay's" pete suratos is live for us in antioch to tell us about what happened and a lot of concern from neighbors this morning, pete. >> reporter: yes, good morning to you, marcus. the latest information we're getting from contra costa county fire is that this might have been a possible misuse of smoking materials by this tenant, whose apartment caught on fire. kind of unclear exactly what that means but we know that some of the neighbors here say they've had issues with this tenant in the past. i was going to show you guys some video from inside here off of claudia court in antioch. this is private property, i want to show you guys that video. this is the information that we're getting from contra costa county fire, as you see, the

aftermath of this fire. they're saying that it happened roughly around 1:15 a.m. they got a call about a person trapped on a balcony in the area. they showed up, they were able to knock this fire down. obviously that one unit is a complete loss but all together you had about six units affected by this fire and also as a result, you had nine residents displaced because of this apartment fire. now, our crew on the ground says that the tenant appeared to be okay, but police actually took her away, because the neighbors weren't too happy with her because of this fire. here's what some of these neighbors had to say about this early morning fire. >> i called the police every night. i tell the manager every day. told them she was going to end up setting the place on fire, and she did. they ignored everything we was telling them. >> the police officer said there's nothing they can do. it's up to the manager in the office to take control of that, because she wouldn't let the officer in, so he couldn't get in last night so he knocked on

my door and told me that only thing we could do is try to get hold of the owner of the department and let them know what's going on. >> reporter: we'll be sure to follow up with antioch fire and antioch police about those concerns mentioned by the neighbors, but i do want to point out that there were plenty of staff, actually a fire in the area because of yesterday's red flag warning, and as i mentioned, they think they may know the potential cause but the final cause of this fire is still under investigation. we're live here in antioch, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> pete, thank you. it is 5:03 right now. our other top story this morning, secretary of state mike pompeo is in saudi arabia right now. let's get to "today in the bay's" tracie potts in washington, d.c. tracie, this trip is all about the missing "washington post" columnist, we've been following that. >> and whether or not, laura, the saudi also take responsibility for what many believe happened inside their consulate in turkey.

he went in, he never went out and now sources are telling us the saudis are about ready to explain what they think happened. getting to the bottom of it, secretary of state mike pompeo lands in saudi arabia this morning to meet with saudi king salman about missing "washington post" journalist jamal khashoggi, a staunch critic of the saudi government. >> i'm really sending him just to find out really firsthand what happened. >> reporter: the saudis have repeatedly denied any involvement, but three sources tell nbc they're now deciding whether to admit ka shogie was killed inside their consulate in turkey without the knowledge of crowned prince mohammad bin salman. the turks believe the prince ordered the hit. >> it sounded to me maybe this could have been rogue killers, who knows. >> reporter: a source tells nbc that's actually one of the explanations the saudis are considering. >> it would be inconceivable that such an operation would be

run by the saudis without the knowledge of the day-to-day decision-maker of saudi arabia. >> reporter: overnight, a turkish prosecutor left the consulate. team of investigators spent nine hours searching the building after a cleaning crew had been called in. >> i think they were absolutely waiting for an opportunity to get away with murder, and this is it. >> reporter: it was the first search, 13 days after khashoggi disappeared. tracie potts, nbc news, washington. it is 5:05. happening now, power this morning still out for some north bay neighborhoods that lost it due to high fire danger. we just checked and about 4,400 customers still do not have electricity. yesterday, pg&e proactively cut power to some 60,000 customers. wind speeds up to 16 miles an hour were forecast in parts of the north bay with even stronger winds in the sierra foothills. some people called the shutoff necessary. others believe it may have been an overreaction. >> the ones who are suffering

from those decisions are the small business owners, like myself, and actually, if it you talk to pg&e, that's what they'll tell you, this is the new normal. well, i'm sorry, but that new normal is not okay. >> pg&e expects to have all power restored at some point today. side shows are certainly loud. they're dangerous, and they get a lot of attention, but they're often hard for law enforcement to break down on, on local roads. one bay area county is trying something new to deer is illegal street racers. it's a new story this morning and one you'll only see on nbc bay area. >> "today in the bay's" kris sanchez started working on this story yesterday and live for us with a plan to stop the spinouts. kris? >> reporter: well hi there, marcus and laura. we know side show drivers like big, broad intersections like this one behind me but we've seen them shutting down freeways as well and i bet if you keep an eye out this morning on your morning commute you'll spot some of the skid marks and fire marks

they leave behind. we've seen massive side shows with dozens of cars but smaller side shows take over smaller residential streets as well. the drivers do their doughnuts and wheelies in the dark and by daylight often organizing on social media and dispersing before the police and the chp can show up. take a look at the scar marks at this particular intersection in rural contra costa county. this is where alhambra valley and bear creek roolds meads mee. the intersection is wide and wide shoulders which may make it appealing to do stunts. neighbored told supervisors again and again they were feeling unsafe so traffic engineers came one a new idea using an existing low-tech product. check out these ceramic bumps, the smallest one is the kind you see on local roadways but notice the other two are much, much bigger. the larger ceramic bumps are six to eight inches across and about four to five inches high and if

you hit one of these, you're going to know it. >> it would hopefully have more of an audible and physical feel, where it would not be comfortable. however, for the legal driver, it's also not, if they were to go over these products, it shouldn't be that bad. >> reporter: as the traffic engineer said, law-abiding drivers and cyclists shouldn't tangle with those dots, which will be laid out down the center of the road and along the shoulders. now today, the board of supervisors in contra costa county will consider the environmental impact report, which is the very first step toward setting up the pilot program. once that pilot program is up and running, they may expand the side show deterrents elsewhere in the county, where sideshow folks tend to show up. we expect a lot of other communities will be watching this as well because this is the first time these ceramic dots have been used in this

particular way as a sideshow deterrent so say tuned. we'll keep following this for you. kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thanks for breaking that down for us. a lot of people have been talking about the mega millions lottery chances. are you going to play? >> of course. >> there you go, got to hope. >> and maybe it is, if you happen to be holding onto that winning mega million dollars lottery ticket it could be a big thing. tonight's jackpot is expected to be the second largest in mega millions history, talking about $654 million here, but before you get your hopes up too high, please realize this, that the last time someone actually won a mega millions draw was back on july 24th. that's when 11 employees shared the prize at a san jose wells fargo. we're going to actually share to you the part about your microscope odds of actually winning, just know that the draw happens at 8:00 p.m. our time,

so i guess i should say good luck to you or good luck to us. whoever's playing, right, kari? >> it lightning strike twice and hit san jose as the winning jackp jackpot? >> there were several winners from san jose in the past so maybe. >> twice in a row that, would be great. >> we'd like to set the example here. >> here is a live look outside in dublin this morning, where we have clear skies, and everyone's already up and out the door moving as you make your way to the dublin b.a.r.t. station. look at how chilly it's going to be this morning. 45 degrees with all clear skies, we go from the mid-40s to the mid-70s by noon today. we continue to go up from there, as you make plans to get your hair together. the frizz factor forecast looks pretty smooth today. we have that low humidity but it will be dry as we go into the afternoon. so we will talk about those temperatures all around the bay area, that's coming up in a few minutes and mike, you have a new crash in san jose? >> i do, but kari, also the meteorologist just asked if

lightning can strike twice. come on, kari, you're supposed to know that. looking to the south bay -- she knows that and we're also all hoping for the lotto. 280 at 87 there is a small crash in san jose. reports of a spinout, a mini van. no injuries reported and also no slick roadways, so we'll track the details but it's out of the roadway on the shoulder, from what i heard. looks like a new crash popped up behind that shield north 680 right around mckee. i'll check on details, once chp gets through the area. we don't see slowing or the light traffic at our camera 101 just north of 280. back to you. >> thank you, mike. still ahead here on "today in the bay," a long time bay area art gallery featuring latino art looking for a new home after property owners jacked up the rent 100% in one day. the government is doing something too many of us do, spending more than it earns but it's getting worse. laura? plus new video, scott, showing you this morning.

people's personal data. donalddaters was going to make america date again and said it was for dating without bias, judgment or liberal intolerance. security researchers told the motherboard they found a flaw that expose the the whole database, everybody's personal data including their personal messages on that app as well so maybe stick to, i don't know, plenty of fish or match.com for now. >> be conservative in a way. >> yes, quite well spoken yes, exactly. >> interesting. thanks, scott. sometimes technology really can be a life saver. the latest proof, a tiny puppy which we're sure is getting lots of love after being rescued from a drain. this is new video of crews in winter haven, florida, they used a live camera to locate the puppy in a small pipe. they're watching it. well, they had to push it along into a larger pipe and then guide it to a manhole. look at it there as they rescued

morning, as you get up and get the kids ready for school this morning, in the tri valley, livermore starts out at 45, and it's going to be once again a chilly start, with some very dry air, and we don't have the breezy wind so our temperatures have been really dipping this morning. but then as we go through the day, a light wind and a lot of sunshine. it will feel more comfortable but some upper 70s by 1:00. as we head up toward 84 degrees, it's going to be up to 85 in napa today and also in ukiah, 85 degrees. san francisco reaching 70, and we'll be up to 80 today in san jose. but we do have some changes on the way for the week, so we are still going to have some very warm weather as this hot area of high pressure causes the air to sink down, and as it sinks down and gives us some clear skies, and it also warms up. now the winds circulating around that high pressure is giving us an offshore flow, so that's the reason why we've had the very dry and warm air, but then as we

go through the week an area of low pressure will develop just to our south and kind of break down that high pressure, and force it to move off towards the east, and then we'll see the approach of a system moving in early next week that could bring us some rain, but we have an all clear weekend headed our way. let me know what you have going on. i'm @karihallweather and get a personalized forecast for wherever you're headed. we're going to stay in the bay area for the inland valleys, our highs will stay in the low to mid 80s. very warm weather, feeling like summer. san francisco looking at mostly some upper 60s the rest of the week. mike, you were saying there were no injuries for that san jose crash. >> the one 280 at 87, the single van spinout reported on the shoulder there. may be sticking into the bushes a little bit. it will be a distraction though, kind of critical junction coming through downtown, but light traffic there. same thing, south 680, not north, so south 680 at mckee another crash involving a vehicle that went off the roadway and into the bushes. sometimes people get drowsy or lose focus in the morning.

make sure you focus on where you're going. watch the two incidents there. as we move up toward highway 24, westbound 24 your commute direction into the caldecott just before you get to bore two we're looking at a disabled big rig that's still there. tow truck should be arriving any second. there are flashing lights and lane restrictions, may cause some slowing out of orinda. use caution approaching the caldecott. so far there's not enough traffic to show problems, look at that coming through walnut creek, concord, even out of bay point, highway 4, cocoa county looks great right now. upper east shore a little bit of a build past the racetrack down in toward the bay bridge toll plaza. we're starting to see the backup forming there. the north bay a little slowing right here for highway 37 westbound, that's out of vallejo, over toward lakeville highway and here is san jose, the south bay late as we showed you on the speed sensors. back to you. >> thanks, mike. 5:21, coming up how a florida homemade it through the hurricane with minimal damage. we're going to hear from the

storms. michael, that storm there, those people, the family, they watched from a security camera as their home was being hit by michael from their home in chattanooga, tennessee, and they were hoping their hard work would pay off. >> every decision that we made, every window, every wall, the roof, the overhang, on and on and on, everything that we had to decide, we told the engineers, we want it to survive a hurricane, and so that's what it apparently did. >> and the architect of the house said that building the home like they did roughly doubles the cost. changing times in san francisco's mission district have apparently caught up to one popular art gallery now planning to close at the end of the month. we've covered gallery de de la rossa before when vandals targeted a mural. leaders say their rent recently doubled and it's just too much for them to afford. fortunately the gallery has a second much smaller space

located next door, that's where they plan to continue to operate for now. video that has gone viral showing a moment a st. louis woman refuses to allow a man into his own building, and now that woman has been fired. >> i don't like the fact that you're blocking me for where i pay to live. i live here, your he blocking the door. >> what is your uniisn't it. >> you don't have to tell you. >> he lives in a downtown loft and told the woman he had his keys as he was returning home from work friday, but she did not want to budge. she didn't want to let him in, so he believes that it was because he is black. the video he posted on facebook already has more than 5 million views and appears to show that woman following him and asking who he is, even after he unlocked his door. >> you know, you have everybody's entitled to an opinion. i say it's people, different races, different color, this is ageless. let's all be great together. >> the woman has not returned requests for comment. her employer tribecca stl, a

approaching the bay bridge. it wasn't exactly where it was reported, but it is there. we're showing you the backup these flashing lights are causing. >> 5:44 for you. an oakland man is under arrest accused of following a b.a.r.t. passenger from her train and trying to sexually asalt her. police say the attacker pulled his victim to the corner of a parking lot at the shops at transforeign in san bruno. she managed to escape and call 911. officers late e took the suspect in custody. the company behind online dating sites including christian mingle and jdate is being forced to make a seven-figure payout. prosecutors in southern california say spark networks will pay $1 million restitution to customers whose subscriptions were automatically renewed without consent or denied refunds. spark networks must also pay a half million-dollar fine and

follow stricter terms. the company is not commenting. a southern california man wrongly convicted of murdering his lover is exonerated. the victim's husband and nephew have been arrested in the riverside case. terry cheeks was killed in 1998. his lover, horace roberts is cleared in thes case. this is video of him being released from prison earlier this week. the county d.a. says dna tests connected to the victim's husband and his nephew all to that murder. 5:46 right now. the president speculates rogue killers murdered the saudi journalist. >> scott mcgrew joins us now. the saudis may be about to say the same thing. >> that's what sources are telling nbc news. the saudis probably have to admit that jamal khashoggi is dead and he was killed inside their consulate. there's really no other explanation that kind of fits the evidence. secretary of state mike pompeo just concluded a meeting with the king of saudi arabia in saudi arabia. all smiles here, but we suspect

there were very serious talks behind the scenes. khashoggi, a writer for "the washington post," entered the saudi consulate in istanbul, turkey, this month, to get paperwork -- wedding and never back. the turks came after the saudis insisted he didn't kill khashoggi, in fact, "he left the consulate unharmed" they said. we haven't heard what police found. few hours before turkish inspectors inspected, the saudis open the front door of the consulate for a cleaning crew, who carried in mops and several boxes of what appeared to be bleach or other cleaning chemicals. president trump speculated yesterday khashoggi was killed by what he termed rogue killers. at the time we weren't honestly quite sure what he meant by that but that may turn out to be the saudi's official explanation that was killed inside the consulate but accidentally by

overzealous intelligence agents during a kidnapping and saudi leaders didn't know anything about it ahead of time but that will not or should not get the saudis off the hook. khashoggi was a journalist working for an american newspaper who lived in virginia, a legal resident of america, though not a citizen, who the suddenies tried to kidnap in turkey, a nato country. we'll keep an eye on all of this. we suspect something really big will break on this fairly soon. i'll be on twitter and of course i'll be back on air at 6:45. >>thank you, scott. happening today a team of pa paranormal investigators will enter the winchester mystery house in san jose. you can watch it live as project dead zone streams their walk-through looking for spirits. this is video posted to twitter, a little taste of what you can expect. at 7:00 tonight xfinity will broadcast the investigation on its twitter page. if you believe.

>> you know i'm a lover of scary movies. i say don't go looking for the spirits. let them be, let them find you. >> i guess this is the new way they're going, where the people who are watching actually control what they do and then the places that they go? >> either the people or "other powers." >> spirits, that would be interesting. i'm looking foord to that. let's get out the door this morning and as you get ready to head out in napa, it is cold out there. it is 39 degrees, but compare that to san francisco, where it's 54, the reason why is because yesterday we had those winds rushing by, and some very low humidity, but now that the winds have calmed down, we're still left with some very dry air, and when you have some very low humidity, temperatures just plummet, so right now, it is 21 degrees cooler now than it was yesterday when you were stepping out the door, so you'll want to

go back in and get a jacket, and as you head out the door in fremont, it's not that drastic, but we will have a very chilly morning with some upper 40s. going to the warriors game today, it starts at 7:30, and it's going to be at about 62 degrees. all clear skies for tonight in oakland, kind of a cool one, sos your' stepping out this morning, and you're getting ready to head out the door, make sure you have a nice warm jacket, but also those sunglasses for all of that sunshine today as we've had some above normal temperatures, looking at some low to mid 80s for the inland areas. oakland today 76, and san francisco reaching 70 degrees. we will have some changes ahead, this high pressure causes the air to sink and as it sinks, it warms. we also have some clear skies in the air circulating around that, giving us that offshore flow. headed into the next couple of days, our high pressure starts to move off towards the east, and then that will allow the way for possibly some storm systems to move in early next week.

i'll be watching out for that. as we look at our highs for the inland valleys, reaching into the mid 80s. it still will feel like summer all week long. san francisco will head back to the 60s throughout the rest of the week. mike, you were tracking that crash near the beay bridge. >> i showed the folks a close-up before the commercial break. the flashing lights. from our camera in emeryville we're able to zoom in over there as you're making your approach toward the toll plaza. those flashing lights a little distraction and a lot of build coming out of the maze, has traffic slowing, all the way back here, if you are splitting off toward what is oftentimes a faster approach, not so much today. make your move over there, and your normal lanes looks like everything's okay once you get there. back over here, the cause over here and the effect. we'll see as that crew is making its way off the roadway but three cars have to be cleared from the hov lane. it's not having a big effect at the berkeley curve, just what we saw with the lights.

liz wagner looks at an interactive tool our investigative unit put together about the superfund site's toxic past. >> good morning. we made a map of the places the navy says might be contaminated with radiation based on past military activity. the sites marked in pink are associated with radioactive materiels, the most infamous site is building 815, the main research facility and headquarters for the navy's radiological defense laboratory. the entire lab spanned two dozen different buildings, where scientists handled radioactive isotopes and performed radiation experiments on animals. along the water in the drydocks sailors washed down ships exposed to offshore atomic weapons tests. because of all that contamination, hunters point is a superfund site, but it is slated for housing, retail and offices and parks and open space. now if you head to our website you can explore an interactive map of where the old buildings are located on hunters point and what they were used for. you'll see the navy address
