ahead of the super bowl. particularly out of san jose and sfo. southwest airlines also announcing that they're adding flights into fort lauderdale which is 30 minutes from miami. now according to seatgeek.com this is on track to be the prize -- the priciest yet. the three most expensive were the patriots super bowls ranging from $4,500 to $4,500 and in 2016 when levi's stadium hosted super bowl 50, tickets then were about $4,400. so these tickets look very much more expensive. now jimmy g. was on fire against the packers last night. but this is what happened the last time the niners played the chiefs. remember it? when jimmy g. store his acl. would we'll forget that happened. patrick mahomes was on fire last night so it will be a very exciting game. if i do say so.

through santa rosa. off-and-on showers and those fall apart before it makes it into the rest of the bay area. but going into the afternoon, we could see areas south of the golden gate bridge getting some rain. i'll be tracking that as you head out on the roads this morning. let's get a look at your morning commute as we look at our overall view of the bay area map. and we haven't seen any major issues. it is been a pretty good drive for you. our south bay drive times on northbound 101 from 85 over toward mountain view it will take about 19 minutes. and then northbound 280 on highway 101 towards highway 85 takes about seven minutes. i haven't seen any back-ups yet. let's hope it stays this way. i'll have an update again in about three minutes. >> we'll check back. thanks. 6:10 right now. >> still ahead on "today in the bay," the time is up for several house boat docks at the redwood city marina. those floating homes will be demolished to make way for new homes. >> and a new study said parns don't worry the cell stuff.

the time is 6:13. we start out with temperatures in the lower 40s as you step out of the door in the north bay as

well as the inland valley toward the tri-valley. 41 degrees in martinez. we'll see a lot of clouds and temperatures making it into the mid-50s for an afternoon high. now as we head out on the roads this morning, here is a live look in oakland. we're still seeing a big build. even for a holiday. but at least there is no slowdowns. you have a smooth commute. we'll look at the rest of the bay area this weather and traffic in about five minutes. and good morning. very happy monday to you. markets are closed for dr. king's birthday. if they were open, they're not. but if they were, they would open at new records so we'll see that tomorrow. intel reports profits later this week. watch this one. i think it is a company with some news. we'll keep an eye on tesla after the deadly fire we've been telling you about. did you see this over the weekend? spacex rehearsed an aboard long after launch as the rocket was supersonic, you could barely see the dot of the capsule launching away from the main rocket.

getting it self-to safety and then the rocket itself blows up. now this is intentional. that was the last major test. spacex had to perform before taking real astronauts to space. "the mercury news" said elizabeth holmes is having trouble paying lawyers and maybe out of money as she battles federal prosecutors in court. holmes had a business partner and both accused of fraud promoting their blood machine edison as something that could detect hundreds of diseases. and parents a new study out of the journal of child psychology said smartphones are not something you need to worry about. not compared to all of the other things you have to worry about when it comes to raising kids. the study by two researchers from uc irvine and the university of north carolina took a critical look at the studies that claimed a link between anti-social behavior, depression, and cell phones and came up with no causal link. the researchers said, yeah, it would be better if kids were

outside playing instead of on snapchat but it is not something they say they need to worry about, our parents need to worry about too much. i've posted that study to twitter so you could read it yourself. >> thank you very much. a comeback for payless shoes after all remaining stores were closed last summer due to bankruptcy. the company is expected to unveil the 2020 strategy soon. payless continues to sell some shoes on amazon but now the company is planning to launch its own online store and reopen some brick and mortar shops as well. >> remember that bo-go campaign. and shoes and clothes and accessories designed by beyonce relaunching her plan with adidas trying to attract more female customers. she launched in 2016 with top shop but it was pulled after sexual harassment claims were filed against the company owner. and we can't get enough of the 49ers. george kiting turns heads and

got chuckles answering questions after the gape. he was wearing a shirt that had a picture of a shirtless jimmy g. if that wasn't enough, garoppolo autographed the shirt and wrote "to george" on it. clearly a team having a lot of fun together. >> that is fun. >> playful fun there. >> watch that be a thing now. everybody wants the jimmy g. shirtless shirt. >> there you go. 6:17 this morning. we're talking about that weather right now. the weather is starting out a little cool and soggy for parts of the bay area. some light rain moving through. we'll be tracking that as we go throughout the morning with more rain in the forecast for tomorrow. a live look in palo alto. we're seeing some drive conditions here. temperatures starting out in the mid-40s. there will be a lot of clouds today. but it will actually be slightly warmer compared to yesterday. and we're seeing that rain across parts of the north bay right now. here is the closest look as

we've seen the rain in northern marin county and covering sonoma county and light rain around healdsburgs and off and on in santa rosa. so this will continue to stay along the coastline today. and fizzle out as it moves inland. and the next storm system, you could see the swirl of the clouds there, that is the sense of low pressure coming in along with a cold front for tomorrow. and we'll start to see the rain at 5:00 to 6:00 in the morning mostly in the north bay and then it starts to make its way into the rest of the bay area during the afternoon. but it does break apart and becomes a very scattered and staying very light. so for areas south of san francisco, you're not going to measure a whole lot of rain. it will mainly be in north bay where we see at least a tenth of an inch up to close of half an inch near ukiah and trace ams elsewhere. for the sierra, we're going to see light snow coming down around lake tahoe. from about one up to five inches of snow at kingvale and then the

seven-day forecast dries out. our inland areas reach into the low 60s and a nice weekend especially toward friday reaching 63 degrees. unfortunately there is more rain coming back and it is just in time for the weekend. we'll see the off-and-on showers on both saturday into sunday. so i'll have more updates on that. let's head out to the morning commute across the golden gate bridge we're seeing a light flow of traffic on this holiday and no fog at the golden gate bridge but i'm seeing one issue in san francisco on highway 101. now this is near vermont road and 101 southbound. this is not going in the commute direction. we have seen a hazard on the road, possibly a car that may be a little bit disabled, disabled on the side of the road and blocking one of the lanes. our south bay drive times are looking good. a lot of green here meaning that the cars are flowing near the speed limit so that is some good

news. i'll be tracking that and i'll have another update on weather and traffic coming up again in a few minutes. >> sounds good. thanks, kari. coming up on "today in the bay," a tragedy in paradise. two officers shot and killed by a gunman in honolulu. who police say then set four homes on fire. we'll tell you about the man police are looking for. volunteers building tiny homes for the homeless. what could happen to the homes coming up into and a baby gorilla born at a california zoo for the first time in two decades. we'll tell you all about it and where coming up next. you're watching "today in the bay."

a regular time and not have to worry about a big back-up. because we're seeing green sensors which means that everyone is flowing at the speed limit and it looks good as of now. i'll have another update coming up in about six minutes. >> looking forward to it. the 49ers and the faithful could now taste a title. the niners yesterday clinched the first trip to the super bowl in seven years and 13 days from now they face kansas city in super bowl liv in miami. fans are still recovering from serious celebrations after the niners dominated the packers at levi's stadium. >> the niners shutting out the packers in the first half 27-0. did you see running back raheem mostert leading the way after starting the season as a back-up. he rushed for 220 yards and four touchdowns, both franchise playoff records. the niners won the game 37-20 and quarterback jimmy g. giving his full approval after.

fans were fast to react up in the stands and fast to react in the stores shelling out money for new merchandise and, of course, san francisco mission district watch parties spilled on to the streets and folks were celebrating for two city blocks. >> i've been watching them since i was six years old. this is my fifth nfc championship game. i love them all. they're part of my family. >> it has been worth it. it means ton. our dads took us to games when we were babies. this is it for us. we want to sit back and enjoy it now. >> i'm loving the fan reaction on social media. people posting throwback pictures to make sure they don't look like bandwagon fans but i'm wondering if the niners fan base will gain a couple of bandwagon fans, and maybe folks trading in the green and gold for red and gold instead. fans who are going to the super

bowl on february 2nd better have some serious cash saved up because average ticket prices right now are about $6,000. it is expected to be the most expensive super bowl to date. back here at levi's stadium, i'm covering this story with my cameraman alan waples and he's not that excited. go to my facebook page to find out why. at levi's stadium, kris sanchez, nbc bay area news. >> raiders fan. >> thanks, kris. all eyes will now shift to miami as the city prepares to host the 11th super bowl. the game will be played in hard rock stadium for the sixth time. now this will be the third time that the niners will play in the super bowl in that stadium. they won the previous two trips. kickoff will be at 3:30 our time. the halftime show will feature jennifer lopez and shakira. we'll have a team of anchors and reporters in miami covering all things 49ers. and make sure you stick with nbc bay area for all things 49ers. we'll have coverage on and off

6:36 now. in oakland, crews are expected to continue to build tiny homes to fight the homelessness epidemic. over the weekend volunteers built three and are in the middle of building six more. many are wondering how long they will stay up. well the construction in oakland, san antonio neighborhood is the fourth attempt by the housing advocacy group the villeth to create a community for the oakland homelessness population. the three other attempts were bulldozed by the city and the projects did not need permits. on the peninsula, house boat battle is expected to come in to a head today in redwood city to make way for 130 new homes. as early as today, the city is expected to bring down eight remaining two-story floating homes at this docktown marina. the area is under development. three weeks ago the city removed morehouse boats it bought from owners last year. city officials say they worked hard to help the house boat

owners relocate. taking a look at the weekend weather. before we get there, we have to get through four more days. >> we do have rain coming our way but then also having a nice end to the week. an i think by friday that is our best chance to get outside because we will see some more showers coming in, especially on saturday and some more widespread rain on sunday. if you're going to be out in san francisco this weekend, get out there on friday. we want to once again track more wet weather in time for the weekend and as we make plans going hiking, friday is the day. 59 degrees will be the high temperature and then some off-and-on showers. we'll see that rain for both days of the weekend. and if you're going to be in the tri-valley, we're up to 64 degrees. a nice, warm day to start out. but then we'll see some cooler air as that rain arrives and we'll see waves of it coming through. if you're planning to do to yosemite this weekend, expect some nice, clear conditions getting there on friday. but then coming back, that is

when we'll have some of the rain changing over to snow. and so you may have a tough drive coming back to the bay area. let's get out there on the roads this morning with a look at that morning commute. overall the traffic maps have been pretty good. pretty quiet and that means we haven't had any major incidents on the roads. our east bay drive times on westbound 80 from highway 4 to the bay bridge takes about 15 minutes and 15 minutes toward the bay bridge and northbound 880 to the bay bridge takes about 13 minutes. tri-valley drive times are also all green. everyone is flowing at least at the speed limit. we'll talk about what is going on as far as today's temperature trend coming up in three minutes. >> we'll look forward to it, thanks. 6:39 now. coming up on "today in the bay," chaos at l.a.x. people ducking for cover and trying to run out of the terminal after someone warned about a man with a gun. up next we'll tell you what really happened. plus the president expected to respond to his impeachment

good morning. the time is 6:42. as we check out current temperatures, this is what is feels like as you head out of the door. we have lower 40s for the inland valley and upper 40s for the boy and coast. in concord we'll see a mostly

cloudy sky throughout today. and temperatures slightly warmer reaching into the mid-50s for an afternoon high. as you head out on the roads this morning, here is a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza. we've had such a light traffic and no metering lights on great news as you head out of the door and we'll talk about weather and traffic again in about five minutes. >> we'll check back with you. 6:43 right now. and new overnight, a suspicious fire at an apartment complex. it all happened about 1:30 this morning along campus drive not far from summit shasta charter school. the flames were centered in a common area and only caused minor damage. a homeless man in southern california will likely have some time to think about the panic authorities say he caused yesterday at an l.a.x. >> we want to show you video of the terrified ticket agents and travelers ducking for cover. investigators say that that suspect yelled that he saw someone with a gun inside of
