microclimate weather alert as another storm moves across the bay are it is wednesday, january 9th and we have a microclimate alert as another storm moves across the bay area. here is a live look at the radar, powered by storm ranger. we have cameras as well, the bay

bridge toll plaza and san jose. in the meantime, let's take you to a live picture of 101, where there is just a traffic disaster that you need to know about. good morning, everyone. thank you for joining us. i'm scott mcgrew. marcus washington is off. >> i'm laura garcia. we'll get you the forecast in a moment. we are first following that breaking news on the roads. mike is tracking that crash in san jose northbound 101. it was completely shut down at one point. you say one lane could be opened? >> one lane is open according to chp and we do now see just now the last few seconds see traffic moving a little bit. this is the backup from 680, all the way up to about alum rock, where they were forcing traffic off of the freeway. the crash is just north of alum rock, between there and mckee, and this is what's going on with the rain as well. you could see it from time to time the droplets on the lens. the two factors are a major concern. this is just north of the 680 split. let me show you what's going on, around the bay, everything is light right now, even the bay bridge toll plaza, except for down here in san jose with the

closure and you saw the radar activity. kari will talk about the rain as well. wet roadways, north 101 just reopened one lane, just at mckee, a deadly crash involving an overturned box truck now is still in lanes, with the investigation that continues. they're trying to let traffic through, because it's backed up all the way past 680, and in the area, there's another crash northbound 680 at berryessa, again, same area and there was a crash in the middle of the roadway, so you're going over on the far left or the far right, and that's causing more delay out of san jose via 680 as well. that's tough for both of those routes. your alternate 280 over to 87 right now, while traffic is light throughout the south bay. we'll continue to track those changes, but at the scene, bob redell is out there. bob, it's wet and there is this crash. >> reporter: mike, yes, we're seeing the rain come back down right now. we're just north of mckee on northbound 101. the brake lights are headed northbound right now, and this is the backup to that fatal accident that happened about an hour and 15 minutes ago, for a

good chunk of time. there is still a sig alert but all of the lanes are shut down. the far lane reopened but such a backup the traffic is not moving much and it's hard to see but if you were to look to the left, the backup extends as far as the eye can see. what we know about this accident, a garbage truck overturned, blocking a couple of the lanes. coroner has been called out. it's not clear if there's a driver of the truck or perhaps another vehicle that was involved and has a fatality, but this is a very serious accident you can see, and right now, if you are headed northbound on 101 from san jose, trying to get to and from, this is probably an area you want to avoid, until it's cleared. reporting live here in san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> bob, thanks. >> you see out there as well very rainy start to our day. let's check in with kari. >> not only is it wet but we've had some strong wind gusts. the wind advisory for the coast and the hills continues until 10:00 this morning. as we get a look at that rain on

our storm ranger, mobile doppler radar, some of the rain just starting to move to the east of san jose, and still pretty good coverage of rain across parts of the north bay, where we're seeing some pockets of some heavier rain passing through. we are still adding up on the rainfall totals, but most of us measuring about a quarter to a half of an inch of rain. we will have a soggy start to the day, in parts of the bay area, as you get ready to head out. we'll continue to track that. also what's ahead for the next couple of days, as yet two more storms move in. i'll have more on that coming up in a few minutes. >> thank you very much, kari. you can stay up to the very latest information on weather, comes straight to your smartphone. download the free nbc bay area app and take the live radar wherever you are. 5:04 right now. we're expecting to get new details this morning in a deadly shooting that shook up the bay area when it happened aboard a b.a.r.t. train. b.a.r.t.'s police chief is hosting a news conference later today. in 2016, 19-year-old carlos row

last evening at this home. there's no word from police as far as why they were there, but neighbors tell our crews that the family living there moved from belmont about a year ago, and also police do not believe this is a random shooting. they believe he and the suspect may have known each other. of course, if you have any information to help with this case, contact belmont police. we're live in belmont, pete suratos for "today in the bay." authorities in the north bay looking for a supermarket bank robber. police say the person you see here walked up to a u.s. bank teller about 5:30 last night. the bank sin side a safeway on navei drive. the robber handed the teller a note demanding money, got the cash and fled. anyone with information should act the know have toe police department novato police department. an accident with a tesla happened last may in ft. lauderdale. two high school seniors died when a tesla model s battery

asleep at the wheel northbound 101 north of mckee. you have the three lanes shut down. the far left lane is still shut down right now. they will be reopening it, but the point is, if you can avoid this area, you want to, because the traffic is ferocious. reporting live here in san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> that's very sad there. thank you very much, bob, for the latest. the rain is coming down over much of the bay area. tracking that forecast is meteorologist kari hall. >> much of the rain that we've seen this morning has been pretty light. we also had some gusty winds and that makes the roads really wet and we're tracking it on storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar. as we get a closer look at the north bay, where we've seen pockets of heavier rain, it is still going to be coming down for quite a while, and as we look at around the marin wood area, just north of san rafael, we have a pocket of heavier rain there. as we head down to the south bay, some lighter showers still continue for south san jose and extending down toward morgan

hill and gilroy. we also have the wind advisory that will be in effect until 10:00 this morning for the coast and the hills. we still have a chance of seeing some of the wind gusts that we've seen throughout the overnight hours continuing for the next few hours. so i'll be tracking that and also we'll talk about what's ahe ahead, as a couple more storm systems move in, that's coming up in about six minutes. >> thank you, kari. more than just slick roads, the storm also causing damage across the bay area. overnight strong winds causing a tree to come down in san jose. new video in to our newsroom, this is the downtown area, taylor between 15th and 16th streets. no word of any injuries. you can keep up to date with the weather, download our free app and take our live radar with you, wherever you go. it is 5:34. palo alto police swarmed a home on reports of a deadly domestic violence shooting that turned out to be an entirely different kind of crime. "today in the bay's" kris

sanchez joins us with what police are calling an incident of swatting. good morning, kris. >> reporter: good morning. you might have heard of swatting, when somebody calls in a report to police about a crime, and that crime turns out to be a prank or a false report. this is the scene from palo alto daily post, outside that two-bedroom home on emerson street, where this all happened last night. in this case, the caller claimed to be a facebook executive who claimed to have shot and killed his wife. now, palo alto police got the call about 9:15 last night from that man, claiming he shot his wife, tied up his children and planted bombs all over their home. the caller identified himself by name as a facebook executive. again, that turned out not to be true. the caller also threatened to kill anyone who tried to help, whether it was police or fire. it took about an hour for palo alto police to clear that scene and according to "the daily post" at that time, the man at that address, who is a facebook

executive was detained and it turned out to be untrue, someone was impersonating him, there was no shooting. the prank tied up police for about an hour, both police and fire. there have been other incidents of swatting like this. in one case, about a year ago in wichita, it turned deadly as a man went to the front door, where police thought they were responding to a shooting, and a hostage situation. in that case in kansas, it is ongoing but there have been other cases here as well, just none that have turned deadly. in palo alto, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> and it's so concerning to take someone that needs actual help, the police force going somewhere else. >> exactly. >> thanks, kris. 5:36. on capitol hill, president trump and lawmakers trying to reach an agreement on border security and re-open the government after this speech. "today in the bay's" tracie potts reports from washington, where democrats responding to that prime time appeal. >> this situation could be

solved in a 45-minute meeting. >> reporter: that meeting happens today. democrats and republicans head back to the white house seeking a compromise on border security to get the government running and ensure 800,000 workers get paid friday. >> this is a choice between right and wrong. >> he promised he'd keep the government shut down for months or years, no matter whom it hurts. that's just plain wrong. >> this is a humanitarian crisis, a crisis of the heart and a crisis of the soul. >> reporter: with protests just outside his window -- >> no shutdown, no wall! >> reporter: president trump made an emotional auto a peel last night to build what he now calls a steel barrier along the mexico border. >> this is just common sense. the border wall would very quickly pay for itself. >> reporter: the president focusing on crimes by immigrants. democrats focusing on americans out of work.

they'll speak at a news conference later this morning. >> mr. president, reopen the government, and we can work to resolve our differences over border security, but end this shutdown now. >> reporter: this afternoon, they'll try again, before president trump heads to the border tomorrow. in just two days, the shutdown will tie to become the longest in american history. tracie potts, nbc news, washington. let's look over here, guys. we're looking at northbound 680 at berryessa road, that's one of your three crashes in the same area for san jose. i want to take you out to show you the live shot that we have with ethan, our photographer, out there. he is on 680 northbound, only your right lane gets by. you see that at the top of the screen and you see the wet roadways. chp, oh in the center of your screen, one vehicle facing the wrong way, one of the i think five vehicles originally involved in this crash. that is a problem. we'll take you back out to the maps and reset the context.

t wet roadways are there. north 101 also blocked. the majority of lanes only one lane open for this deadly crash investigation, which continues north 101 at mckee. these two areas are really impacting the traffic and have been for quite some time. one of your avenues out of the area was north 280 toward 87 but we've had this crash taking some time to clear, north 280 at 11th, as you come past one of your san jose state exits i call them, a lot of folks access the area. that car and that roadway go up a hillside and that car is over off the roadway and sounds like it might be at risk of going down that small embankment as well. we have another complication which could prevent them from clearing. three crashes near 101 and 680. everything else is clear. will it last into the weekend as well? >> we'll see the storm system moving out, a little bit of a break in between and another one moving in for the weekend, and

by saturday, we're still going to have some of the lingering showers, especially for the morning, as we will see some of the rain clearing out for the afternoon. so saturday afternoon, i think that's your day to get out there. it will be yet again another storm system moving in on sunday. it will be busy over the next few days and our high temperatures only reach into the mid-50s, going throughout that forecast. if you're planning to head to the sierra, maybe going to heavenly this weekend, friday is going to be a really tricky travel day. by saturday, that's the clearing, and then by sunday, once again, another storm system moving in. heading up toward napa valley, showers on friday. saturday is looking good, after that rain clears out, highs in the low 60s and on sunday, our rain chances going back up. we'll see more of the vsame for the tri valley, but on saturday, that's the day to enjoy, with highs reaching into the low 60s and going down to monterey, once again, some showers for friday
