by her granddaughter. >> love that. >> very sweet. well, we do have to turn to breaking news. sadly four people killed in a rollover crash. up next, team coverage, and a live report from the scene, and of course, mike's traffic report. we're tracking the markets. just in the last 30 minutes, new jobless numbers came out and a grim out look. nearly 3 million more americans filing for unemployment last week, bringing the total since the pandemic began to more than 36 million people. plus -- >> president trump pushes ahead on reopening, an ousted government vaccine experts ready to testify on capitol hill that

that it could be the darkest winter. we will get to weather and traffic in just a moment, but we have traffic we want to catch you up on. kris sanchez is live for us in san jose with the breaking news of the shutdown of 85 because of a deadly accident. >> reporter: now we know the chp suspect the driver was driving under the influence and was speeding at an excessive rate. the investigators behind me are still taking measurements and gathering evidence from the evidence field, and this will continue for a bit longer. the driver was behind the wheel of a 2005 dodge durango when it lost control and rolled over several times. three men died here at the scene and a woman died later at the hospital. the driver is under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence and another passenger is expected to survive, so in total six people involved in the

crash. we now know that speed is believed to have been a factor, and we know chp says they have written 87% more excessive speed tickets since the shelter-in-place order went into place the first month. we know 85 will be closed for another two hours. chp is trying to get things back to normal as quickly as possible because they know a lot of essential workers is headed to work. mike, how to help folks get around it? >> well, the map shows you you have to get off at cottle and you can use a couple options, great oaks parkway or santa teresa boulevard takes you back on the freeway. the rest of the bay shows a easy drive. we are going to start to see

showers moving in later this afternoon. right now we are starting out with dry weather, but we have a couple spots we will have to watch later today. in the north bay we will see the rain moving into northern sonoma county in the next couple hours. i will be tracking this with an update coming up in a few minutes. laura? >> sounds good. thank you very much, kari. 6:02 right now. this morning on capitol hill lawmakers may get a dire warning from a recent ousted white house health expert and whistle-blower. dr. rick bright says the u.s. can expect the darkest winter in modern history. we want to turn to tracie potts with more on what bright has to say. >> hi, good morning laura and everyone. he butted heads with leadership

and president trump whether or not to push the hydroxychloroquine, and he did not think it was safe. dr. bright said we could be headed for the darkest winter in modern history if the government does not come up with a plan to slow the virus. ousted government vaccine expert dr. bright testified today, and he filed a whistle-blower complaint, and dr. fauci opposed the president and told senators it may not be safe to reopen schools without more coronavirus testing. >> we have to open our schools. young people are affected by this. we can't keep going on like this. you can't do this. you have to get it open. i totally disagree with him on schools. >> governors are grappling on whether it's safe to send

children back to class. >> not all parents will be ready to send their kids to school. >> it comes amid new worries with the inflammatory syndrome happening to kids that contracted covid-19. >> we need to be prepared. >> the illness is suspected in 17 states and the cdc is expected to issue a nation-wide alert to doctors today. democrats want to force the cdc to release reopening guidelines blocked by the white house. >> reportedly, so the president and his political appointees can make changes to it. >> president trump also opposing democrat's $3 trillion coronavirus stimulus. >> doa, dead on arrival. nancy pelosi knows that. >> the house set to vote on that plan tomorrow. tracie potts, nbc news. 6:05. the supreme court is striking down the stay-at-home order, and

the health department's order is invalid. the governor responded to the ruling on msnbc saying the state has been thrown into chaos. >> we're in the wild west. there are no restrictions at all across the state of wisconsin. >> his administration and the gop-led legislature now plan to meet to discuss the next step. around the bay area, it's really a mixed bag when it comes to which counties are following state guidance to reopening. you have sonoma, napa and solano counties that loosened stay-at-home orders last week, and then san francisco, marin, san mateo counties, they are now intending to reopen more businesses on monday. then, santa clara, alameda, contra costa county, they are

not budging but alameda is talking about lifting some restricttions in the coming days. some businesses in san mateo are may offer curbside pickup, and being allowed to offer curbside pickup may provide a little relief financially and emotionally. >> being able to look in our customers' eyes and hear what they are looking for and be able to hand it to them, that's going to be fantastic. >> curbside pickup is also expected to increase foot traffic which restaurants hope will translate into more business. and then some businesses in california may be able to reopen more widely than the bay area. under phase two clothing stores, book stores and sporting good stores can reopen right away, but soon offices, restaurants

and seating dining, and those as well as shopping malls can also reopen. more help may be coming for gig workers in san francisco. i want to check in with "today in the bay"'s bob redell, and he is live with new regulations the city is considering. >> good morning. yeah, san francisco might consider a number of new rules and programs to help gig workers not only get through the pandemic but beyond this period of time. among the suggestions, a minimum wage for people that drive for companies like uber and lyft, or who deliver for the apps like doordash. city issued licenses, a city-run ridesharing kpaop rawti ridesharing cooperative. the paper reports that a city oversight commission on the

local agency commission, it could vote on the recommendations at a hearing tomorrow and send it to the san francisco board of supervisor for full consideration. there was a survey conducted to see how the pandemic is affecting these people. you can take a look at the tv screen. you can see that close to half, 46% of these people, these gig workers, said their income has dropped from 500 to $1,500 a week since the pandemic started, and under 10% said their income dropped even more, more than 1,500 per week, and 63% said they are not working now because of the virus, and then 18% are still working but are afraid of contracting the virus but are working because they need the money. and then coming up, people

getting unemployment can still get benefits even if they turn down a job offer. another big turnout is expected for the drive-through giveaway at the cathedral of faith. every wednesday and thursday the church hands out food from 9:00 to noon, and they are filling an enormous need in the south bay, really across the bay area. let's check the forecast with our meteorologist, kari hall. a nice day ahead? >> yes, we will have a nice day. a few spotty light showers and that's great to see. we are starting out with clouds and we will get some peeks of sunshine today. temperatures slightly cooler than normal as we reach up to 73 in concord and 79 today in napa. we will talk about the rain chances ahead in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. we are watching the breaking

news out of the south bay, mike? >> yeah, continuing since last night, the accident on south 85 at cottle, and the map will show you your alternates as you are forced off the freeway at cottle, and you can take santa teresa or great oaks south to bernel. back to you th. >> thanks, mike. coming up, the rare coronavirus disease showing up in children and the all new cases reported across the state. thousands of san francisco families are going to eat for months thanks to the generosity of a silicon valley billionaire. we will take you out to the futures showing another rough day on wall street as investors begin to realize we are not towards the end of this pandemic. pandemic. you are watching "toda t each of us has a purpose.

we are destined to do something meaningful. what do you think a private, christian, education looks like? gcu offers over 175 high quality online programs. find your purpose at grand canyon university. visit gcu.edu.

we continue to follow this crash, the full closure you can see on the map, cars are forced off on cottle. one factor of the crash was speed, and four people have died as a result of the crash.

even though it's clearer, we still have to mind the speed limit. it's thursday and that's when we get our first-time jobless claims showing 2.9 million americans filed for first-time unemployment benefits. that is less than weeks past but more than we were expecting. one way or the other, the crisis clearly continues. the head of the fed, jerome powell said the situation was shaping up to be the worst economic crisis since the second world war and said it would get worse unless congress added more stimulus. congress is split on whether to add another stimulus bill and what should be in you heard in tracie potts' reports the president is saying it's dead on arrival. what the president wants is

interest rates past the zero point, and this is something the fed can do but won't. to be clear, president trump was calling for negative interest rates long before the pandemic when the economy was doing well. so a word about negative interest rates. although it sounds like it, it's not a situation where the bank is going to pay you money to borrow. after all, federal fund interest rates right now are at zero and i am guessing you are paying interests on your mortgage, it might get less but will not change. it's not clear what negative interest rates will do in the sense that japan and europe have tried negative interest rates even before the pandemic and it did not seem to help them very much. stock markets fell hard after powell's warning. some investors think the stock market got ahead of itself and the recovery may not come as soon as hoped. bottom line, wishful thinking

cannot beat science and ep adeemology. then the fbi seized burr's cell phone, and he sold stocks in mid february worth as much as 1.7 million. twitter's jack dorsey is contributing more money, the $15 million contribution will help feed 5,000 families for three months, and 1,250 families will get hem -- help with rent. twitter's jack dorsey, $1 billion, he has promised, and that's one-third of his total net worth he will give away to fight the disease. >> no matter how much money you have, that is very completely.

thank you, scott. we love to tell you about something good, good stories highlighted here. this is a cool one. this is for kids of frontline workers from the world's best known doll, barbie. mattel said it got overwhelming support for its #thankyouheroes barbie collection. for every career barbie sold between now and sunday, mattel will donate a doll to the children of the coronavirus first responders. bill murray is taking a trip to flavor town and will try to play guy fieri, and we are

having a nacho competition. i know, it's crazy. >> that will probably be funny, too. it's happening live tomorrow night, and it's also restaurant relief. fieri has been busy during the pandemic, and they have been feeding health care workers at three hospitals in the north bay, santa rosa. >> yeah, to see so many people give back in so many different ways. you do what you can, and that does affect so many people. >> that's right. just find a way, even if it's saying something positive today. >> that's true. >> you guys look great. >> thank you, mike. >> kari, you are amazing. >> you guys are amazing. let's take a look at what is going on in our forecast today. as we check out our updated drought monitor, we have not seen too many changes here for

the past few weeks, and southern california not seeing drought conditions, but northern california we see the extreme drought in the areas highlighted in red. a small area. it looks like we may see some improvement because recently we have had rain in northern california. we will see how it shakes out next week as we get the next update. as we come into the bay area, we have seen a severe drought that continues for many of the microclimates especially in the north bay. now that we are seeing rain coming in, we are seeing a little hope here as we look at our radar where we have seen some of the showers in the north bay. we also have a more significant storm that will be coming in by the end of the weekend, so sunday and monday we may get more measurable rain, but as we take it out today we will see spotty light showers. as we go into tonight that all starts to clear out. tomorrow is dry and starting to warm up, and then by sunday our next round of rain comes in. we will see the rain will be hit

or miss, and we will not see it everywhere for the bay area so we will keep that in the forecast for today but you may need to turn on the windshield wipers for just a bit. once again, that next storm coming in on sunday looks like it will bring much more of a soaker, especially for the north bay. we still have the drought conditions, and the rain will be very light, spotty, not a whole lot to measure, but look what the models show for the end of the weekend, possibly three quarters of an inch of rain. that would be a huge amount, especially this time of year. as we look at the 7-day forecast, our temperatures still going up and down, warmer tomorrow, and saturday is looking nice and then temperatures coming down as the rain returns on sunday into monday. mike, you have been keeping an eye on the commute this morning. how is it looking? >> overall, kari, things are looking great, but we have a tragic scene on southbound 85 that closes 85 southbound at

cottle, and kris sanchez continues to follow the deadly crash from the scene. great oaks parkway or santa teresa will take you back to the freeway. >> thanks for the latest there. coming up next on "today in the bay," no fans, no problem. what the plans are for nfl to maybe pump up the game. first, may is national foster care month and even though we are social distancing you can shine a light on the movement of fostering youth. the virtual event will happen today. you can find the link there on our website. for more information go to nbcbayarea.com.

good morning. several passengers have reached out to us for help because they feel stuck, including ava hocksworth in calistoga. she canceled her $600 flight because of covid-19, and that's what authorities are recommending, and she expected a cash refund but that's not what she got. >> under the circumstances they wanted to give me a credit

towards a future flight. >> she is furloughed and that oesn't help. senator kamala harris and other senators agree. they just have written a bill to force airlines to offer a refund for everybody that doesn't take their trip during the pandemic. the obligation to refund people is simple. coming up at 6:00, we are going to pick it apart and going to show you how it might make sense to wait until the very last second to cancel, and we will help you steer clear of a nasty fee that kicks in if you wait to long to pull the plug on your travel plans. i will see you tonight at 6:00. new details, a fourth child in los angeles has been desired with pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome, it's a

disease linked to the coronavirus. at least three children have died and there are cases in at least 14 states. on monday there was a report of a baby at lucille packard. indoor shopping malls will remain closed, and also resuming tomorrow, horse racing at santa anita racetrack but without fans in the stands. shirley whenever pro sports starts again, it will look different. this fall the network plans to pump in crowd noises in the fans, and they are putting digital fans will be in the stands to make it look normal.

>> i wonder if you would see something like that on there. not a great look. i don't know. we will see how it works out. you want to hear about this story. can talking loudly spread the virus more quickly? what you need to know about the new warning from doctors. we're also following breaking news. a deadly crash in the south bay. the lanes shutdown right now on highway 85 and the arrests made in connection. we'll be right back.

right now at 6:30, off we

go. the markets are open this morning and the last hour we got new jobless claims numbers. nearly 3 million more americans filed for unemployment benefits last w 36 million. the dow right now down 216 points. good morning to you. i am marcus washington. >> i am laura garcia. some breaking news from overnight we have been covering for you since we came on air at 4:30 this morning, a big crash in the south bay. kris sanchez live near highway 85 this morning to give us the latest developments. kris? >> reporter: highway 85 is shutdown in the southbound direction, and chp not only suspects the driver behind the wheel in a deadly crash was under the influence, they also say they believe that driver was speeding at an excessive rate.

in the distance you see the officer still gathering evidence, the major accident investigation team is out here now. they are trying to figure out what led to this other than that unsafe speed. the driver was behind the wheel of a 2005 dodge durango when he lost control and rolled over several times. three men died here at the scene. a woman died later at the hospital. the driver is now under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence and another passenger is expected to survive. we expect that highway 85 will be closed for another hour and a half or so as investigators do their work and make sure that the roadway is safe for drivers and not damaged by this violent crash. if this is your regular route you will be taken off the highway at cottle road. as i mentioned, the chp suspects the driver was speeding and they have told us in the first month in the shelter-at-home order, speeding tickets went down but the tickets for excessive speed,

speed above 100 miles per hour, they wrote 87% more of that kind of ticket. if you are an essential workers, mike can get you around this crash. >> yeah, impaired driving and four dead as a result of this, and another 90 minutes for the closure of highway 85. you are forced off at cottle, and you can get down to the freeway from santa teresa or great oaks. we're not seeing any rain for most of the bay area as we head over towards oakland, we can see a lot of clouds and that will be the case throughout today. as we track showers moving in from the north, in the north bay we already have seen some of the rain moving in. as we go into the rest of the

day our rain chances will go up as we start to see more scattered activity by this afternoon. i will have more on this and the full microclimate forecast coming up in a few minutes. >> sounds good. thank you so much, kari. california is about to get a big dose of reality, economic reality today, a painful dose of it. the governor plans to reveal a new revised budget plan. the governor was working with a surplus when he announced the original plan in january. all that changed, and now it's to the tune of a december -- deficit of $50 million. you may be able to collect unemployment even if you turn down an offer for a new job. "today in the bay"'s bob redell has that for us.

>> typically if you are on unemployment and offered a job and you turn it down your benefits end but because of the pandemic the state changed the rules, and the california development department is easing the rules so now you can refuse a job offer and still collect unemployment under the filing guidelines. if the employer is not considered an essential business or has not met the government requirements for reopening, and if you, the person looking for work is more susceptible to covid-19, that is somebody over the age of 65 or has a chronic immune system, or if the job under pays what other jobs are openi paying for the same position. and then forget about

talking loudly, because scientists say one minute of loud talking can produce more than 1,000 infection droplets that can stay in the air for up to 14 minutes. the team used laser technology to reach its conclusions, and they found talking loudly in a confined area without a mask can be the worst situation. now, more than 100 new cases of coronavirus over the past day. santa clara county still has the most cases, and sadly the highesteas. later today county will dis to expand testing. supervisors will hold a virtual forum with experts talking about better testing strategies. the county has tested more than 43,000 people since the pandemic

emerged here at home. and then in palo alto, anybody going outside or visiting an essential business, the face covering are required. and that is in effect for all superior court buildings. and then 100 trailers donated to help the homeless. they have been empty since they arrived two months ago, but 90 of the trailers will open today and the trailers are designed for people who have been confirmed to have cases of covid-19, or those showing symptoms. today san jose leaders will meet once again to discuss the city's biggest deficit they have ever seen. they are expecting a $72 billion

short fall. cuts are expected to hit parks and libraries the hardest. libraries will likely not open for months and when they do it will be for fewer hours. >> i have a hard time imagining how people can wonder around the library and stay six feet apart. it's like ping pongs moving around in a box, how do you coordinate that? >> the parks programs are currently on hold. the city is projecting a $1.5 billion short fall over the next two years. and oakland is making efforts to bridge the digital divide. disadvantaged students have been having the worst time with distance learning because they have less access to computers and wi-fi. the district has been seeking

$12 million to help deliver access to all. it plans to announce the details surrounding a new campaign later this morning. happening today, the city of santa clara is making sure that all students that are on lockdown can get a free beck first or lunch. they are going to start handing out the lunch meal bags starting at 2:00 p.m. there are four pickup locations across the city. head over to nbcbayarea.com and you can see the exact locations for the lunch distribution program. all right, should you take the sack lunch in the backyard or outside? let's get to our forecast with kari hall. i love a sunny afternoon. >> yeah, we have seen clouds recently thing. as we look at the cloudy sky across the south bay and south county, we will track rain, and we are only reaching in the upper 60s and low 70s with san

jose reaching 70 degrees, and 72 in antioch and in santa rosa today expect a high of 67. i will be tracking the rain with more details coming up in a few minutes. mike, you have been giving us a look at what is happening out there with the commute. >> that's right, kari. we have the one closure for southbound 85, and you are forced off the freeway at cottle because of ongoing traffic alert. the rest of the bay shows a nice and easy drive, and so things will change up as we talk about hair cuts, that we can't get for people just yet, but laura did a good job grooming her dog, and chris evans, apparently that actor that plays the perfect soldier, he's not the perfect groomer, and he had reason to think he could do well. here you see him coming to his brother's rescue, and scott evans out there with his quarantine buzz cut. if you don't happen to have a

superhero in your circle of quarentines, you might want to look at this, look how happy this lady is. laura, you could be as happy as this woman right in this video. >> oh, my gosh. and i so need it. that's crazy. my door dog. i have done his face, but i have not tackled the body yet. thanks a lot, mike. that's funny. gambling on reopening. still ahead on "today in the bay," a brewing battle over some casinos reopening, and why it may lead to some legal action. the former head of america's search for a vaccine testifies

today. president trump is tweeting about him, perhaps pretweeting saying nobody likes him. let's take you out to the big boards, where nobody is liking the stocks for the second day. we will go live to san francisco and say thank you to health-care workers there at kaiser hospital. much more this morning on celebrating those health-care workers right here on "today in the bay." it's 6:42.

continuing coverage folks of the closure, highway 85 last night and four folks died as a result of the crash closing highway 85. we will talk you about alternates, and kris sanchez is at the scene. right now at 6:45, we're taking a look outside in cupertino where our temperatures today stay in the 60s. a lot of clouds. also there's rain in the forecast. we will talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. 6:45 for you this morning. president trump says kids should go back to school in the fall. >> scott mcgrew joining us this morning, and he is disputing what his top scientist is saying? >> yeah, he did. it's kind of strange, because what dr. anthony fauci said was almost certainly a vaccine won't be available by the time the kids go back to school in august or september. dr. fauci did not say keep the

schools closed. he was simply answering a republican senator's question, will we be safe to send children back to school? dr. fauci said nothing is safe until there's a vaccine. >> i was surprised by his answer, actually, because, you know, it's just -- to me it's not an acceptable answer, especially when it comes to school. the only thing that would be acceptable, i said, professors, teachers over a certain age, they need to take it over the next five weeks, four weeks, whatever it may be, and they have to be careful because this is a disease that attacks age, and it attacks health. >> now, there was never an issue where fauci said the schools should be closed. that's number one. number two, as you know, we now know children are affected in different ways by the coronavirus. in fact the cdc will be issuing

an alert about that today. lastly, if kids go to school they can certainly get the coronavirus and bring it back to their parents and grandparents. what you are seeing and we are seeing a lot of this is a scientists testifying about science and a president talking about hope. there's a difference. we are seeing that large in des moines, iowa, where it's one of the most dangerous cities in the united states with more than 1,000 new infections in seven days according to cdc documents obtained by cnbc. and iowa lifting some restrictions nonetheless. and the president just tweeted about rick bright who will testify before a house sub committee today. president trump says rick bright is not well liked by people. according to his introduction, dr. bright will echo what dr. fauci said, that

if states open too early they risk unneeded death. more trouble for michael flynn, not only does the judge in this case question the push to drop the case, but the judge has assigned another judge to act as lawyer to oppose that idea in another court. jerry nadler, the head of the committee that funds doj wants attorney general barr to testify about that in the house as soon as possible. we will be tweeting all kinds of things today, including the bright testimony. i am sure president trump will be watching that as well. you can follow me on twitter, i am @scottmcgrew. >> thank you. 648 for you this morning, and there's a new tesla-sized legal battle brewing over plans to reopen gaming casinos.

the casino owners say the property sits on tribal land and outside of state and county law. >> it's very important that we open following all the guidelines set by the state, county and federal, but some of our own measures we have taken. >> opening up casinos will cause a risk to our public's health. that is very clear. >> right now each of the casinos insists they are not going to back down on this plan. the county is taking steps will be taken to ensure the casinos remain closed. by the way, there's no current plans to reopen any of the northern california casinos. california community colleges are suing the federal government on behalf of more than 500 students. most of them are daca recipients, and all are not receiving stimulus grants

because they never applied for financial aid. educators sued betsy devos and called the grant restrictions uncautiu unconsequenu unconstitutional. new details this morning on why governor newsom's massive in 95 mask deal with a chinese manufacturer went bad. the deal was rejected last month but "the chronicle" is reporting that it was due to documentation, and not a problem with the masks themselves. the manufacture has until the end of may to get certification or repay the state for the billion-dollar contract. and first responders here are giving a big show of support

for health-care workers at kaiser hospital. this got under way about five minutes ago, 6:45 this morning. the mayor is among those in attendance. they are handing out boxes of sees candy. this is great to see. >> yum. we want to say thank you to health-care workers every day, helping to save all those lives out there. nice to see. a nice day ahead, and we have a shift change going on there right now. how is it looking for today, kari? >> looks good. we have cooler temperatures and more clouds moving in. the drought monitor, there's no drought conditions in southern california because they have had the storm track there over most of the winter, but here in northern california we have not had as much rain so we are

dealing with severe drought conditions in the bay area. since last week we have not seen many changes but the good news is we will have a potential of seeing those improvements as we go into the rest of the next couple days because of another storm coming in. we will watch that as they update the drought monitor, and we will see rain moving through and rain chances will continue for today and then we will start to see the potential of another storm system moving in by the end of the weekend. all of this keeping our temperatures down and we are looking at some highs that will reach in the low 70s today, which is cooler than normal, and then once the storm moves out we will have a chance of seeing some more of the dry weather as we go into the rest of the week. overall we're looking pretty good here. things are shaping up a little better as we are still going to be tracking rain in the forecast, and our temperatures will reach into the low 70s for many of our inland areas. we will, of course, have more updates on that as we head over to you, mike, you have been

tracking the commute. what is going on this morning? >> kari, everything is pretty light but there's a big problem in the south bay. the live camera shows you highway 85 still closed at cottle heading south, you are forced off the freeway at cottle because of the investigation. they are in the final cleanup, but look at all the debris across the roadway. kris was covering the deadly crash. great oaks or santa teresa are your alternates. happening now and eight other states are suing the environmental protection agency. it stopped requiring companies to roeeport environmental violations. coming up next, reopening

confusion. we will break down what counties are opening what and when. also coming up on the "today" show, the 23andme could play in how covid-19 is impacting you. there's much more news on "today in the bay." it's 6:53.

6:56 this morning. welcome back. here's a quick look at the top stories we are following. >> that's right. we have a live look this morning at highway 85 where sadly four people were killed following a late night crash that has southbound lanes at a standstill, and it's over by cottle. four people died and the driver was arrested on the suspicion of driving under the influence. all southbound lanes are expected to remain closed through the 7:00 hour. the dow is down 415 points. this after the jobs report showing 2.9 million people filed for unemployment last week.

around the bay area, it's a mixed bag when it comes to which counties are following state gui gui guidance on reopening. san francisco, san mateo and marin now intending to reopen more businesses on monday. now santa clara county, contra costa and alameda counties are not budging so far although alameda is hinting at lifting some restrictions in the coming days. happening today on capitol hill an ousted u.s. government is warning we could see, quote, the darkest winter in decades if the u.s. can't keep the virus from spreading. dr. rick bright said he was pressured to back ineffective coronavirus treatments pushed by president trump. we will have more on the testimony coming up in a few

minutes on "today." we will get a look at the forecast with meteorologist, kari. a nice spring day ahead? >> yes, and it's nice to see we do have spring showers possible today. we dry out and warm up tomorrow. then for the end of the weekend, a new storm system comes in. mike, you have been watching the roads. any updates? >> no, highway 85 closure continues and you are forced off at cottle, and that's the only issue for the bay. you can see smooth traffic except for southbound 85 where you are forced off at cottle. we are always here for you on "today in the bay," monday through friday 4:30 to 7:00 a.m., and we are so thankful for the health-care workers. >> yeah, health-care workers at kaiser, they are being honored.

a round of applause for them as the shift change there, and we thank them every day. show is c next, and we will see you tomorrow starting at 4:30. ♪ good morning, breaking overnight, rising toll. the job crisis worsening. 23 million more laid off workers filing for unemployment. 36 million jobs lost in just two months. the impact it is taking on american families and businesses across the country. breaking overnight. overturned. wisconsin supreme court strikes down the stay at home order there, declaring it invalid and unenforceable. bars and businesses fast to open. and flooded with customers. >> we're g
