hear you, we like artists to get paid too. here is a link to the photographer's work where you could license the picture. apple reports its profits after the closing bell. it was ten years ago this week, yesterday in fact apple introduced the ipad. nobody was quite sure it would be successful. apple got huge pushback on the name and people thought ipad was weird but then again they hated ipod when they named that one as well. i was at that one. and steve jobs holes up ipod and you're like it's what? it is not a pod. it wasn't even the first mp3 player. nobody was impressed. >> i still have any apple -- my mini pad and i have my -- the ipod. >> and of course then there was the wee, the nintendo wee and called the what? >> i remember that. >> very unique. come a long way. >> a long way we've come and we're probably hungry.

but at least we could leave the umbrellas at home. here we see clouds but not a lot of rain. temperatures reaching into the upper 50s throughout the school day. eventually reaching about 58 degrees for a high. concord we're heading to up 62. 60 in napa. and in san francisco expect a high of 57 degrees. now we do have some rain. very close by. here is a cold front that is moving closer but it does continue to weaken so we're still looking at slight rain chances for the north ba spotty off-and-on light rain as we go through 11:00. we are seeing some of the showers moving through san rafael, santa rosa and ukiah and still have the chance of rain over toward napas as well. as we go through about noon it comes into san francisco as well as the bay. there may be a slight chance of rain for the coast but notice the east bay, it is staying dry and that is what we'll see for the rest of the bay area going into the noon.

now the seven-day forecast shows after the slight chance of rain today, we dry out for the rest of the week. we have some upper 60s, expected through the end of the week, it going to feel like spring and i do expect a lot of the res to start budding under this warm weather. we're going to keep the dry weather into the start of next week for san francisco also gradually warming up this time for the weekend. now, mike, how is it looking in the south bay. we'll show you that map and see the san jose moves nicely with little slowing around capit capital expressway but they show the build one after the other there is 101. watch for 87. and 85 showing slowing where a disabled vehicle was reported but they have a tow truck arrived and it is out of the lanes but the distraction is setting off slowing as there is more traffic through san jose and pushing up toward the rest of silicon valley. sunnyvale moving smoothly. and the ramp reopened after the crash there and issues toward

well as the south bay, missing out on many of the showers and then by this afternoon we're seeing it clear up. this is our only chance of rain we have this weekment so i'll have more look ahead for the weekend. mike, you found that drizzle and mist out there as well. >> exactly like you described, kari. so it was right on the nose. looking over here on the golden gate bridge and just use caution through the area with mist hitting the camera at the richmond san rafael bridge but not at the bay bridge. but there is sheen so maybe mist in the area but no windshield wipers. we do have metering lights in the back-up typical slowing for the upper east shore freeway and the build through walnut creek and into orinda and a smooth drive for contra costa county and the tri-valley showing slowing through pleasanton and the disabled vehicle still on the report but no additional slowing out of san leandro toward fremont. a crash at slowing.

mark to you. six months ago today the gunman suddenly turned gilroy garlic festival forever changing the site. the gunman killed himself as officers responded. "today in the bay" kris sanchez joins us live where the healing process continues. >> reporter: people still leave teddy bears and flowers and poemt -- and mementos but toward they will have a resource center to help try to move forward. now the first thank you last night for first responders who responded to the gilroy garlic festival shooting at the sharks game. if you look closely, you could see each uniform had gilroy strong printed on it and the sharks donated $46,000 to the gilroy strong fundraising effort and the gilroy chief of police really hopes that people will ultimately remember the festival the way that it was before.

>> we've dealt with the tragedy and the trauma and of course some of the victims are still going through that but i want to keep stuff fresh in people's minds so they remember what the festival was about and what it does for the community and all of the positives and in hopes that we could continue to move forward and create a successful festival in the future. >> reporter: now the gilroy strong resiliency center will open permanently at at work space on monterey road and will provide counting and trauma education and plans to add more hours in the months to come. the grand opening is happening at 2:30 this toon and it is open to the public. in gilroy, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thank you, chris. talking about the bay area housing crisis, now you see it everywhere really and people are being forced out of homes into

leang a lot of people with fewer options when it comes to where to park those overnight rvs. now it may soon change in berkeley and that is where bob redell joins us live with some details of what the city is planning to do about it. bob? >> reporter: laura, tonight at berkeley city council they're considering a proposal to open up its parking lots to people living in rvs including this lot at the berkeley animal shelt the plan the city would allow up to 25 rvs to camp overnight during nonbusiness hours in the safe parking locations for up to three months during what is called a grace period. berkeley is dealing with this problem as we're all aware. a 2019 census data showed that over 9,000 people are living out of vehicles an we're talking about cars rvs in the nine county bay areas and many parked illegally overnight in side streets or in front of

businesses and overnight [ inaudible ] within city limits but they can't enforce the rule as berkeley is reporting they have approved the idea of a -- [ inaudible ] as a compromise but not yet found a 2ur losing >> there you go. >> we're losing your there. but we'll continue to watch what is happening with the berkeley city council possibly letting rvs park there at the humane center. thanks, bob. the next story you're looking at, happening today, san francisco supervisors will vote on whether to add ania warning label on sugary drinks and if the proposal should passs sugar drinks like soda would have a label with a san francisco government warning advising people that sugary drinks could cause weight gain and increase risk of obesity. and today concerned san francisco residents who live at

the site of the former naval shipyard at hunter's point will hear about the latest radiation testing results. they are holding a community meeting at the testing and they believe the soil there is no longer radioactive but as our investigative unit first discovered years ago the clean-up has been tainted by fake results or tests that were never really conducted. see the full story on the website at nbcbayarea.com. a traffic alert for drivers in the east bay to tell you about. cal translate tonight will temporarily closed the caldecott tunnel on east bay highway 24, the two tunnels heading from oakland to orinda and they will repair lights in the tunnel. it should reopen in time tor the morning commute. but we'll keep tabs on that. mike has his eye on not only the tunnels and bridges and roadways, the works in the bay area. >> that is an issue. this morning the commute goes

westbounhe closure tonight eastbound and we'll continue to track that and i'll show you why that is critical in a second. the richmond-san rafael bridge and the lens have been wiped off and now clear and just sheen and not a lot of rain as kari talked about maybe light rain or mist or drizzle or whatever you want to call it. the typical flow of the commute through contra costa county and through orinda and toward the caldecott westbound is the commute direction and if you do cut off 24 like the caldecott tonight there is an issue of reroute toward 580 or 680 or toward highway 37 that is overnight. right here the rest of the bay and a spooj drive. we'll talk about the south bay and slowing on 85 in the next report. >> sounds good. thanks, mike. here we do. heading into the weekend. super bowl game and so much fun and everything is planned. how will it look. >> it is going to be perfect. we have great weather. we're going to be warming up into the weekend and we're looking at some of the warmest temperatures we've seen in quite

a while. check out the seven-day forecast. a lot of sun and upper 60s for the inland areas and wouldn't be surprised if we had low 70s. so make some plans to get out especially on saturday. and i know we'll all buckle down in watching that game on sunday. we'll be at 65 degrees with sunshine so we have the windows and doors open and we're also enjoying a fresh breeze. if you're planning to head to the sierra this weekend, good driving conditions getting there and back. but it will be warm. we're looking at some upper 50s as the high temperature on saturday. we'll talk about today's temperature d, coming up in three minutes. >> thanks, kari. it is 6:39 now. and coming up next on "today in the bay," the tonight show jimmy fallon delivering an emotional and personal raw message following the death of kobe bryant. >> i said like, hey, what do you do? and he said i play basketball. and i go where and he goes for the lakers. and i go, wow. >> we'll also look at the push to change nba's logo in the wake

of kobe bryant's death. we'll fill you on the president' trial and out to the big board where there is not the recovery we were expecting on the dow. it got hit hard yesterday. on worries of coronavirus. you're watching "today in the bay." we tried to get the politicians

to deal with the problem. but they wouldn't. so we took it to the voters and forced big tobacco to pay its share of healthcare costs. we fought oil companies for new clean air laws and closed a billion dollar corporate tax loophole by going directly to the people we got results. that's not something you see a lot of from washington these days. i'm tom steyer and i approve this message. let's make change happen.

it is 6:43. let's check out san jose with a clear start to the day. a nice sunrise.

we're doing to see a mostly sunny sky throughout the afternoon. temperatures going from the upper 40s in campbell to 60 degrees at 2:00 today. warm weather now and also for the weekend. we'll talk about that coming up if less than five minutes. and we're look at the san mateo bridge. things are slowing because it is crowded across the westbound direction. typical for the morning commute but notice the little glow for the lights and there is moisture in the air and kari is talking about it and we'll see morning where comedians stop the jokes for a night to pay tribute to kobe bryant. >> jimmy fallon ended his show with the memories about the first time he met kobe. he said they first met at a party. kobe wasd t7,y both went on a bn together. as fallon told the story, he held back tears. >> kobe was such a life force. so strong and creative and inspiring that in my head i thought that he was going to live forever.

>> fallon ended by saying kobe, when we meet again, we're going on a beer run. well basketball fans are calling on the nba to update its logo to honor bryant. the current logo features a silhouette of l.a. lakers great jerry west appearing back on balls in 1971 and more than 1 million people have signed a new online petition like snoop dogg and adam levine are also sharing their support for that logo change. well berkeley may bhe first city to pass a new border vision resolution. that resolution looks to protect human rights and expand public safety efforts relating to border patrol. berkeley city council members will vote on the resolution today. the berkeley unified school district has already passe loon like there will be witness withes in the trial of donald trump. >> and scott, three republican senators have hinted bolton. t is right. and this need to be a total of four republicans voting with the
