will be another cloudy start. that's all because of that system that's passing nearby. but, hey, at least we didn't get any rain here locally from that system. 56 degrees right now. however, into the arch, look at how your day is going to be shaping up. upper 70s for palo wall toe. upper 50s, low 60s for the coastline. >> vianey, it's been great to have you all week. i'll be watching you all weekend. look at the fog. the zipper truck made its way without incident. no problems. the light traffic you expect for friday, that's okay. light traffic, yes, approaching the bay bridge. at the bay bridge, you see the fastrak lanes moving. you do have the backup and the wait there. a little build in hayward and slowing starting. but nothing big. now new details from nbc bay

area investigative unit on a story that made national headlines. last month a woman was trapped and pulled under a muni train. muni is looking into a mishap last tuesday where a woman got her hand caught in the train door while getting off the train. another mishap last month was caught on video where the passenger's hand was caught in the door. she was trapped at the embarcadero station. in this past week's incident, the train operator realized the passenger's hand was caught in the door and opened the door about a block later. last month's incident prompted the agency to order new sensors to be installed.

muni says the problems with the door sensors date back to last october when they started inspecting the newer fleets but now they are expecting the older fleets as well. >> thank you, sharon. this morning president trump's trade war has a new battlen front a lot closer to home. tracie potts is live in washington. now he's going after mexico. >> reporter: he is. and the president says it's because of immigration. he want mexico to start across the border. in the meant he will tax everything they try to sell in the u.s. 5%. everything coming across the southern border starting in a couple of weeks. adding to that until it reaches

25%. a permanent tariff until president trump says they get immigration under control. we're getting reaction this morning from mexico reaction from mexico's president. a letter sent to the u.s. to president trump saying that taxes aren't the way to solve the immigration problem. he has his foreign minister on the way to d.c. today to talk about this. and reaction from democrats, too. here on capitol hill, they're not in session. but by twitter we have heard from at least one democratic committee saying this is not the way to deal with the situation, that the president has a basic understanding of immigration. no response from the white house on that letter or what the discussion, if any, with the mexican foreign minister might

be as president trump threatens to impose tariffs in just a couple of weeks. >> it is not just avocados. it is cars and steel. it could have an impact on families. thank you, tracie. new details on wednesday's kai on theic hit and run through tenderloin. police are naming the woman they say was behind the wheel. 25-year-old cherry neil is accused of striking two people in several cars with a stolen suv. police say she was doing all of this while invading officers over several blocks. surveillance showing the chaos. neil facing cower counts of felony hit and run and driving under the influence fda regulators are taking a closer look at part of the cannabis industry. >> yeah. it's a big thing and a big question this morning whether companies should be allowing -- or be allowed to use cbd oil in food, drinks and supplements. there is a lot of confusion about cbd right now.

ali wolf is live at meta san jose national airport when a look at what's going on. ali. >> reporter: good morning, marcus. well, if you're flying out of an airport like this one, you will be allowed to take certain cbd products through security and onto a plane because the tsa just said this weekend that they will be changing its policy on medical marijuana. but here's where it gets a little bit tricky. the fda currently does not approve cbd to be used in food, drinks, and other supplements. but that is not stopping companies from using it. as you may know, cbd products are easily available and very popular. you probably heard of it being sold in the form of gummies and drinks and supplements. even pet treats. it is predicted to become a $20 billion business. it is made from hemp. it does not have thc, so it will not get you high. people are already relying on cbd oil for pain relief from things like arthritis.

today's hearing is the first step to try to regulate the cannabis compounds. there has been some confusion reasonable, and that led to arrests. one woman was taken into custody at disney after being caught carrying cbd oil. and another had it in her back at an airport in dallas. >> i think it's a very good idea. it doesn't have the effects of it, you know, of like marijuana or something like that. people use it for health reasons. >> i don't use it, but i know people that do. >> reporter: watt today's hearing, the fda will hear from experts, some companies and ultimately they want to look into whether or not cbd is safe

before they decide whether they should regulate it. reporting live from san jose airport, ali wolf, "today in the bay". okay. definitely a hot topic. thank you, ali 6:07. new this morning, relief is about to arrive for one of the bay area's so-called food deserts. it opens on san pablo near market. the owner said there hasn't been a full-service in that area since the 1970s. he said most focus on alcohol, tobacco, snacks and packaged food which is a real problem for people without cars. >> people want to eat healthier, do it conveniently where they live instead of having to go through the whole effort to get somewhere else. >> so good to see that. >> the new store is 14,000 square feet and will offer fresh produce, meat and dairy. more than 50 people have been hired so far almost entirely

from the neighborhood. tomorrow will include music and a street festival. it is a great thing that is needed in all communities. >> the last couple of weeks vianey said things are getting canceled because of the weather. not this weekend. >> now we have sunshine. one of my sisters just got a grocery store. and i said where is that family discount? groceries are a little pricey. she doesn't start another two weeks. i guess i have to wait until she gets that start. if i get a family discount, you best believe i'm going to use it. temperatures for today. as kris said, a lot of the rain ended up ruining outdoor plans. you don't have to worry about it this weekend. go outside, enjoy the weather. the 80s will stick around through the weekend. so are the 70s through oakland area. again, cooler on the coastline. if the 80s are too warm for you, don't worry. you always have somewhere to retreat. that's the good thing about microclimates. you can pick fog and clear skies.

nbc bay area. mike, how are the roads? >> looking really good, folks. take a look behind me. nice smooth flow. green sensors all over the bay. north 680 and mckee, the off-ramp, a crash activity near the off-ramp. it is open. and traffic sensors showing a real problem. use caution. highway 4 toward concord. 242, 680, all moving smoothly here. rest of contra costa, just the backup at the bay bridge toll plaza. fog for the north bay. crash 101 at 37. 101 through san rafael and low clouds here. farther back in novato at the 37. there may have been a deer hit. there is activity on the shoulder. no injuries reported for the drivers. i don't know about the deer. i'll let you know if we have any closures. back to you. thank you, mike. do you need another disruption during your morning drive? the new technology to allow

5% more up to 25% until mexico does something about immigration. as you are watching tariffs go into place, understand it is more about just, say, avocados. they are an easy thing for the media to point to because you notice the price at the grocery store. oil and cars and machinery and medical goods. fruits and vegetables. but how do they consider things on steel and x-ray plates. remember, we may the tariffs, not mexico. uber filed its first financial report since becoming a public company, and it was pretty terrible. some of the biggest losses ever experienced by an american company. uber said it will slow down

subsidies of some of its rides, meaning uber prices could go up. the president will allow gas stations to sell ethanol year around. it is not clear they have the power to do this. here's what he said. >> all i know is you have a lot of farmers, right? and my administration is protecting ethanol, all right. that's what you want to hear. >> you have the chinese tariffs on soy beans. swine flu which means hogs eat soy beans. >> right. >> you have that. you have flooding.

>> i spent a few years growing crops in iowa. >> thank you, scott. new today, you can spell out your own message to the driver behind you using a brand-new device. it is called roadway. the l.e.d. screen is mounted in your car, truck, or suv and displays brief phrases. a lot of people think putting words in the window isn't a good idea. >> at the end of the day, not everyone is from the area. >> the ceo said his mother was the victim of road rage. i'm just glad they don't have emojis.

>> maybe some words wouldn't be allowed. >> or gestures. >> don't put u in any of those. like you move over. >> use your signals. >> as you head out on the roads, we don't have those yet. you may have to stick to get upset in your own car type of thing. that's a pretty good shot there. yesterday the sun came out, as i promised. we will get that today. down to limited visibility in the north bay. we are noticing patchy fog. santa cruz, definitely dense

fog. three miles of limited violate, hugging the coastline. we have thunderstorms lining up. remember that short wave trough that brought activity to the sacramento area. we are still going to keep that in mind today. as far as locally, the system stayed just far enough. we did not get any cloud cover. that kept temperatures below seasonable. morgan hill, 82. the interior valleys, mid-70s and 80 in concord. a little slower to clear.

santa rosa, 79 degrees. it will be a beautiful weekend. the low that has been bringing a lot of cloud cover will make its exit. high pressure will dominate. our temperatures will really begin their warmup into the start of the workweek. overall, a great weekend ahead. mike? vianey, looking over here to the roadways. a great drive right now. san jose, you see a little brake tapping 101 north of 680. we saw a lot more traffic. it is 6:19. this is right about the time where we see the second burst of traffic for the morning. the first burst never caused much slowing than you just saw. it is right there circling above the e in san jose. 101, 37, north of there.

he didn't say what the something substantial was. the timing was strange because the mexican senate was working on the new nafta. u.s./mexico/canada trade agreement as mr. trump announced the new tariffs. a treaty we want mexico to sign. at the same time vice president pence was in canada trying to convince canadians to ratify the very same tariff. the usmca will be the largest trade deal in the history of the united states. our own congress has yet to vote on it. the president continues to lash out at robert mueller tweeting robert mueller came to the oval office seeking to be named the director of the fbi. i told him no. the next day he was named special counsel, a total conflict of interest. nice. it is true mueller did go to the white house the day before he was appointed special counsel. he was not seeking to return to the fbi director's position. he had been invited to the white house by the white house to give

advice on how trump should replace comey. we know this because his closest adviser steve bannon told investigators that. he said they were prepared to ask mueller to return to the fbi. we planned to beseech him but ultimately decided not to. you can find that testimony on page 81 of the mueller report. wall street very concerned about the new tariffs i was talking about. we will talk about th thatthroughout the day. the dow industrials are down better than 300 points. i will be tweeting about it on twitter. in the meantime, follow me@scottmcgrew. >> thank you very much, scott. >> this morning you might want to set your cereal or bagel aside because of this next story. we know people in san francisco love a pop-up store. next month there is a new pop-up bar opening. >> the star attraction, rats. the rats that ride bart for
