of showers. our high temperatures today head up to about 60 degrees in san francisco, and 62 in oakland, and in palo alto. tn as we look at storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar, that's the red scan, the beam that we are seeing going around the bay area, still some light showers, some mist and drizzle and keeping everything really damp, also some patchy fog but overall, the larger view shows the storm system is pushing off towards the east, and producing some rain for the sierra. as we go into the rest of the day, still shows that we will have some rain moving through especially for the south bay, over toward the tri-valley, as the leading edge of this cold front kind of pushes through our area, and then our next storm system arrives as we go into tonight. we start to see some of that rain approaching the south bay by 7:00 tonight, and then also some light rain farther to the north, and as this moves in, we moving in off and on between tonight and throughout the day tomorrow, and it's going to be

also much more windy, and as we go into thursday night. we are going to see the potentiasf especiallyhe north bay, up to close to an inch and a half in santa rosa, and then areas south could see about a half to three-quarters of an inch of rain. that will be another good soaker moving through, with temperatures reaching into the low 60s, as we go into the weekend, it's still looking really nice, with highs near 70 degrees, and mostly sunny skies. san francisco going to keep the temperatures in the upper 50s for the next few days, but warming up quite a bit. by saturday, we're in the upper 60s. and mike, you've been tracking the roads, a lot of stuff going on. >> a lot of little stuff. i don't mean to demean anybody's incide on chp but nothing major as far as crashes and that's a good thing. soba tri-valley a little slowing out of the altamont.

speeds in the 50s range, great coming out of the altamont pass. the cluster of crashes, a few more than the last time we took a look, a couple of them reports of roadways but nothing major blocking any of your freeways except for 980 at 880, the latest to come in. this may have a spinout and your fast lane might be affected for a few minutes. north 880 everything is moving out of the roadway. the speed sensors are all green, toward walnut creek, 680 southbound and folks split off here toward 24, a nice, easy drive past the walnut creek b.a.r.t. station, there are no delays reported for b.a.r.t. because b.a.r.t. is not officially open but tells me there are three trains that are starting to run again no delays reported there. no weather related delays for the ferry systems and we don't expect anything, things are a l in the last five minutes. we couple of cash lanes that aren't yet open. we'll watch and it will thin out a little bit. back to you. >> thank you. this movsight and no

be punitive, and so first and foremost is to do education and outreach. >> reporter: she says her office has been focused on reaching out to landlords, to better explain all the requirements, but we did some digging and found out her office hasn't contacted a single landlord. so the city has no idea how often landlords are wrongfully kicking out families in an effort to make more money. we'll have that part of the story for you tonight at 11:00, and we'll also show you the bizarre links one landlord is accused of taking to rails the rent for one family nearly 200%. that's tonight at 11:00. >> if you want to get a hold of anyone from the investigative unit, give them a nbcbayarea.com/investigations. 4:51 right now. real estate prices showing no signs of cooling off in san francisco. >> the latest example, a n mill critical thing -- a structure.
