>> and i'm laura garcia. everything got cleaned off from all of that rain. little bit of a break today. >> a little bit of a break and tomorrow morning we'll watch another system moving in, quickly, though, so you can still get out there for your saturday afternoon plans. look at storm ranger, mobile doppler radar, giving us a clean sweep this morning, before you step out the door. we're seeing a few clouds and once again the next storm system moving in from the pacific northwest will bring us some rain. we'll see mostly cloudy skies today. few peeks of sunshine here and there and especially for the north bay. we'll see the rain starting to move in later on tonight and sweeping through in the morning. we'll take a closer look at the time line coming up. mike, you're updating the two crashes. >> the two crashes from before. the first one, going down to one crash. the crash here by the san jose airport north 87, now cleared after a quick traffic break from taylor. we saw a little slowing about three minutes, and then it all cleared up. over here north 101, that moves smoothly but the woodside

off-ramp temporarily closed, the car that went off the roadway, looks like tow trucks will pull it out of the dirt and get it out of the area. 101 is not affected. it's the woodside off-ramp closed for a few minutes. the rest of the peninsula is fine. so is the east bay. contra costa county, you're at speed from highway 4 out of antioch, down across 24, through the account accoucaldecott tunny bridge. richmond side to the north has a little bit of puddling but just a couple. the roadway itself is dry. >> thanks, mike. bizarre news to tell you about, the breaking news in palo alto, as officers spot a driver asleep behind the wheel of his car, and that car is part of the story. >> "today in the bay's" kris sanchez joins us live from palo alto with another story involving some bad choices, and self-driving cars. really interesting one here, kris. >> reporter: we don't know if this person was in autopilot mode but the tesla is being towed from this shell station

here in palo alto, this is where it was brought after a pursuit and an arrest by the redwood city chp. as we understand it from chp, the driver was arrested after officers allegedly spotted him asleep behind the wheel. officers tried to wake that driver up, but ultimately the only way they were able to stop that car was to put a patrol car in front of it to slow it down. officers believe this man was drunk, and it is not the first time chp officers have had to arrest someone in a car that had self-driving capability or autopilot. we do not know at this point if that driver was in autopilot mode in his tesla, but that part is under investigation. however, this did happen before. in august, a monterey man was arrested after crashing his tesla into a san jose fire truck. he told officers that he thought his car was in autopilot. back in january, chp officers found a man passed out behind the wheel of his tesla on the

bay bridge, when he was arrested. he told officers he had put his car, his tesla into autopilot. he was arrested after officers found that his blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit. again, we don't know if the driver of this particular tesla was in autopilot or self-driving mode but we know that driver is under arrest for drinking and driving, and is now headed to the jail. this tesla headed to the tow yard, because it is now a part of the evidence in this investigation. we'll keep asking questions this morning. we'll bring you more answers as we get them. in palo alto, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> very bizarre there, and a lot of questions to be asked, kris, thank you. more breaking news to tell you about this morning. if you are a starwood member, you want to listen up here. its potential massive data breach that may include the theft of credit card information. marriott saying someone accessed the database holding personal information of approximately 500 million guests. that hacker or hackers had

forecast, a chance of early morning showers on saturday. sunday, monday dry. tuesday is when the rain returns. look at how cool the temperatures will be. the highs will only reach the low 50s. morning temperatures in the 40s, and for san francisco, also in the lower 50s next week. we'll be tracking more of that coming up and mike, you're looking at a smooth morning commute so far. >> but the two days looked similar for temperatures in and out of san francisco, my goodness. in through san jose, north 101 moves smoothly. drier roadways than yesterday. no problems or spinouts and no flooding. the rains had a chance to kind of clear out of the roadways, and that's a good drive. the crash cleared from 87 by san jose airport. the other crash over off of woodside, that off-ramp looks like it reopened without a problem. getting over here through the roadways, contra costa county, a smooth drive at speed. little slowing eastbound 24, and we typically see that right about this time every morning. i think there's either a few

slower vehicles moving through the area, or we just have the s sensors that have to wake up and reset. interstate 80 getting over here eastbound into the sacramento area, remember, folks will take that route to get toward the new snow. right now, chains are required for i-80 and highway 50. no problems across this high-rise, this is the san mateo bridge. back to you. >> thanks, mike. coming up, a heartwarming story to get your friday started right. americans from across the country pitching in to help butte county students affected by the camp fire. up next, who put out that call for help? and i'm tweeting about oakland this morning, the town, making the requests national geographic" travelers best list there. they talk about the culture and the food and so many sites in oakland. go to my twitter page and facebook and see me post that information, on twitter, it is at at marcusnbc. much more ahead for you on
