questions linger on what you can and cannot do, why immunity and distancing seem to be secondary concerns in this post pandemic world. "today in the bay" continues right now. good morning to you. thanks for joining us this morning. i'm marcus washington. >> and i'm laura garcia. we begin with breaking news, this massive global internet outage. numerous websites went offline, several companies in silicon valley. >> scott mcgrew is tracking this all morning long. has the issue been resolved? >> let's go with mostly. "new york times," cnn, paypal went down as a cloud company called fastly suffered an outage. if anything it shows us how many websites rely on a single provider to keep them on the internet. now fastly says a fix has been applied, if you go and visit those sites, they should be back for you, also apps on your phone may be affected as well. fastly is sort of a middle man between you and the website that

you want to see. they store a copy that you can get faster than the actual site, again this all seems to be back at this point marcus and laura, we do not think there was any criminal activity behind it. a nationwide search is under way for a san jose mother accused of killing her young son, leaving his body in the las vegas desert. >> this is a heartbreaking story. "today in the bay's" kris sanchez is live in san jose with a story of what authorities say happened to the boy. >> reporter: they're not saying how he died but san jose police one of the agencies circulating the mother's photo, trying to find her so they can get some answers for the rest of the family. this is 35-year-old samantha moreno rodriguez, she's wanted for the killing of her son, 7-year-old liam husted. the boy's body was found two weeks ago and after weeks of trying to identify him the fbi

got a tip from a family friend saying they thought it was liam and the mother and son had not been seen in san jose since march 24th. las vegas police say the mother and son were spotted in laguna beach down south in victorville and then the mother was seen checking into a colorado hotel alone. liam husted's father has been notified and is not a suspect. >> it's a heartbreaking conversation to have. this has been an emotional last ten days for myself, all the investigators that have been working on it and we're just glad we're able to get some closure for liam and hold the person responsible for this crime accountable. >> reporter: all the information is here on your screen, i'll put this up on our social pages as well. the number for crimestoppers is there and just a reminder you can report something you know anonymously. 35-year-old samantha moreno rodriguez has a warrant for murder, she and her son were last seen in a 2007 dodge caliber dark blue, license plate

6wlh211. before liam's body was found in las vegas the two were seen in laguna beach, victorville and moreno rodriguez was seen alone in grand junction, colorado. we did track down on address for the mother and son here in san jose but there were no neighbors who could identify them. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> just heartbreaking. thank you, kris. 5:03 right now. president biden is preparing for his first trip overseas since taking office. it starts tomorrow, includes a face-to-face meeting with russian president vladimir putin. his travel plans come as vice president kamala harris wraps up her trip south of the border, where she delivered a strong message to migrants wanting to enter the u.s. a washington insider tracie potts is breaking it down for us. both the president and vice president really on two different missions here. >> they are, laura. the vice president is focusing on immigration, the president on

a host of issues that he will deal with world leaders in europe and in that region, trying to establish and in some cases reestablish relationships with our allies and lay down some ground rules between the u.s. and russia. this morning, president biden embarks on eight days of diplomacy, joining allies of the g7 summit to discuss ransomware attacks, the global pandemic and global cooperation. >> working with our allies and partners, renewing our role in international institutions, and reclaiming our credibility and moral authority much of which has been lost. >> reporter: he scheduled one on one meetings with the queen of england and nato's president and russian president vladimir putin. >> one of biden will make clear to president putin when he sees

him is that states cannot be in the business of harboring those who are engaged in these kinds of attacks. >> reporter: his trip comes as vice president kamala harris wraps her central american tour in mexico today, with a stern message to migrants approaching the u.s. >> i want to be clear to folks in this region thinking about making that dangerous trek to the united states/mexico border. do not come. do not come. if you come to our border, you will be turned back. >> reporter: she's seeking cooperation from mexico and guatemala to curb corruption and improve the quality of life south of the border. tracie potts, nbc news. >> lester holt will interview vice president harris in guatemala, watch the exclusive interview tonight on "nightly news" at a new time, 6:30 p.m. another one of nine men killed in the vta rail yard mass

shooting will be laid to rest today. of the nine shooting victims, only alex fritsche made it to the hospital alive. he breathed his last breath in their arms before dying they were married 20 years ago. alex fritch will be buried in the south bay. a gallup poll says 22% of americans are distancing. in april it was about 30% in and january it was half. moving you forward on the state's full reopening one week from today, fully vaccinated people will be allowed to go without masks in most indoor settings. some employers are wrestling with what rules to put in place for those who are unvaccinated. last week, cal osha said you can only ditch those masks at work if everyone there is fully vaccinated and some experts believe that the goal of herd

immunity is pretty much a nonstarter. >> the number has become less meaningful on a practical level. we're aiming to maximize the number of people we can get vaccinated. >> 30% of all people have been reluctant to get a vaccine and experts say a 70% vaccine rate likely will not bring about herd immunity. a hot topic, pandemic related protections for renters struggling to make it in the bay and with the state ban winding down the future of the eviction bans is up for debate in some places. marin county supervisors debate extending a ban for unincorporated areas until september. santa rosa leaders debate pulling out of sonoma county's eviction ban. according to "the press democrat" the idea is getting blow-back from renter advocates but business entities are pushing for you it. if you live in the peninsula and see smoke it may be something planned.

firefighters plan to conduct a controlled burn at the san andreas and pilarcitos dams. the goal is to maintain access for dam inspections ahead of fire season. the burn will start at 9:00 this morning. 5:07. as we look outside, meteorologist kari hall is keeping track what have we can expect from the weather and beautiful sight behind you, kari. >> yes, it's going to be a really nice day across the bay area. make some plans to get outside even if it's just walking or heading out for lunch and enjoying that outside, too. let's get you out the door in pleasant hill. parts of the east bay starting out this morning, temperatures in the low 50s and we'll go from 52 degrees in the next hour to the upper 60s and then we'll see temperatures stop b and a lot of our microclimates will havs like this. we'll talk mblems for the morning commute? >> you know, kari, everything looks good right now.

green sensors dominate and we have more green in the east bay, 84 reopened on schedule just about 5:00 and right on schedule we see a little slowing here at vallecitos as you cut through off of 580 towards sunol. no major surprises, no surprises at all. we have one incident eastbound highway 4 coming toward 680, reports of a trailer that's dropping pieces off of the trailer like it's falling apart, so we're going to track that with curiosity but no problems for the commute, the bulk of the traffic builds out of antioch toward concord in the next few minutes. back to you. >> thanks so much, mike. bakery backlash, a bakery under fire for its celebration of pride month, why this viral story has a sweet ending. amazon is tapping in to some of the devices around your home, why you might want it to or why you might not, coming up. ♪♪ and you might just die

good tuesday morning. it is 5:12, make some plans to get outside today, how about going for a hike, in the south bay it's going to be a cool start, upper 40s, but then take a look at our trend, by 11:00, we're at 63 degrees and reaching into the upper 60s for this afternoon. winds calming down a bit. we'll talk about that and a

warmup in our forecast, in a few minutes. >> mr. problems for chp out of juanita and a clear view, look at this is beautiful, the golden gate bridge, the traffic flow, but whatever about the sun, that's nice, too. >> that was fantastic. good morning to you. very happy tuesday as well. a big change coming this morning to your amazon echo what everybody calls alexa and ring doorbell. starting today amazon will turn on a mesh internet system that uses your alexa or your ring doorbell to broadcast internet to other amazon users. someone walking their dog will be able to get an internet signal from your house from the ring doorbell as they pass, this starts today. you can opt out of it if you wish through your alexa app. now this should be very secure, no one will be able to see what your ring doorbell sees or what you're doing online, they'll just be able to get some neighborhood internet but i can see how some people could be

uncomfortable with this. this is nothing new. comcast internet does something similar and has for years. the justice department was able to claw back most of the bitcoin paid as a ransom by the hackers by the colonial pipeline, you recall colonial was hit by a ransomware attack, the doj was able to trace the path of the bitcoin and seize tens of millions from the hack. twitch turns 10-year-old today, started in a bedroom in san francisco, was created for video game players to broadcast their games and people would watch. it then expanded to cooking classes, yoga lessons, all kinds of things. eventually purchased by amazon for $1 billion. >> i don't think we knew back then that it would be what it came today, 2020 obviously was a difficult year for many and we're super honored to have been able to be there to support

people and connecting relationships, but i think now looking back, we should have probably seen it back then that passion, that connection, wanting to be with other people around the things that we love. >> looking back, marcus and laura, justin kan is the san franciscan who created twitch, basically a kid at the time. he rose to internet fame with justin tv, he strapped a camera to his head. watch his life in real time. laura, you remember that. >> i forgot all about that, right. >> starts as a stunt, live video on the internet, that might work. eventually he sells the thing to amazon for $1 billion. >> isn't that something? now everybody -- >> it's our everyday life. >> exactly. reality. >> live tv. thanks, scott. when it comes to the future of all electric cars there's a race going on, this one has to do with the time it takes to recharge. automakers fear the hours it often takes will discourage people from going green.

the race is on to speed up charging times to the point where it's similar to filling up a gas-powered car. that's pretty fast. sometimes that even seems like it takes too long standing there. advocates call it a critical component in the white house effort to roll out new charging stations across the u.s. some are already available, but they cost more to operate. the hope is that the government grants will spark a wider rollout. listen to this, a texas bakery trending this morning, gaining fans across the world. this started earlier this month when the bakery named confections posted a photo of rainbow frosted heart-shaped cookies. the next day they posted about lackbash it received saying a lot of significant amount of followers along with hateful messages and even some people canceling orders. the bakery went viral, leading to customers lining up around the block to buy those treats, confections has said it has been sold out for days now, and they want to thank everyone for their

costume. >> morning show reboot. the morning munsters. i got the widow's peak going. let me show you how things are shaping up. good morning, kari. we're looking at the traffic flowing nicely, green that's good, dominating your map, getting toward the tri-valley, things have calmed down where we have the reopening for 84 as we talked about and it's calmer here first burst around vallecitos cleared up nicely. 580 just a little slowing out of the altamont. chp said overnight there were good winds over there, kari substantiated the same information but not a problem, and vasco still at the limit so that's why it's only 18 minutes out of brentwood, discovery bay toward 580 is your main commute. highway 4 no problem and the earlier incident coming eastbound had cleared that trailer that was falling apart didn't get any update on that. let's take a live look at the san mateo bridge, traffic flows smoothly across the bay. the taillights traveling across the high-rise, kari, high winds and i'm putting high winds and kari together, that was not cool.

your name is kari, kari hall. >> it is all good. it's been so windy and at least today it's going to start to calm down a little bit. here is a live look outside, about 40 minutes away from sunrise and it's going to be a really nice start to our tuesday morning, with sunshine continuing today. so as the seven-day forecast comes up at the bottom of the screen, check that out and see how much you're going to do today as we get a look at what's going on here, we've also had some temperatures starting out in the low 50s and we will see a nice little warmup as we go into today. so as we once again are looking outside in san francisco, maybe getting ready to head out for a jog, in concord expect it to be at about 53 degrees and then heading into the upper 50s and low 60s in the next couple of hours. so our temperatures warming up but just coming down a few degrees compared to yesterday. so take a look at these highs, reaching 68 degrees in martinez and 68 in santa cruz if you're heading that way.

san francisco reaching 60 and 72 in morgan hill, as we go through the forecast, we'll see a couple of storm systems passing to the north of, a few headed up toward the pacific northwest, off and on rain once again and it's so close to the bay area, but we're not going to get any rain out of this, just a couple of pushes of some cooler air over the next few days and then look at the weekend, we'll see our temperatures warming up as high pressure moves in once again, in san francisco will see the temperatures in the low 60s, trending toward the upper 60s in the next few days. and now as we talk about our climate in crisis, well, we need to be prepared year-round for the fire season, and be prepared for that possibility, now that we are seeing more and more wildfires and becoming more frequent. while the weather is calm right now it's a good time to make your defensible space around the home, cal fire has tutorials on that, that could create a fire break if a fire were to approach

your home and you want to create a family plan, everyone know what to do, where to go and you back three days' worth of food, clothing as well as medication for each family member and have it near the door where you can grab it and go and be prepared for power outages that could last for days and have a way to get information whether you have power or not or if you have to evacuate and make sure that you're always informed on what's going on, for more information on that, you can check out nbcbayarea.com, click on the "climate in crisis" tab and i'll have another update for weather coming up in a few minutes. marcus and laura? >> looking forward to that, kari, thank you. 5:22 right now. next here on "today in the bay," "nbc bay area responds." >> if you're unhappy with a purchase, you might be able to get your credit card to help you out, even though 98% of people never do it. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, we'll show you how, next. you know what? our team is always on social media, a big shout out to our reporter cierra johnson on

you're overcharged or dissatisfied and really not getting anywhere with the business. >> you know what? you're also entitled to open a dispute and get a refund if you pay with a credit card. consumer investigator chris chmura is going to show us how to do just that and how to avoid the costly mistakes. >> a credit card dispute or "chargeback" is a powerful tool for consumers. let's look at the process. as soon as the transaction goes sour, start documenting everything. when it's clear, your effort to try to resolve the dispute isn't getting anywhere, pick up the phone, go online and contact your credit card company. make your case with evidence. before you contact the credit card company, give the business time to dot right thing, discover says wait up to 15 days for the merchant to credit your account but don't wait too long. credit card companies generally only give you a certain amount of time to open a dispute. chase says you must submit your dispute within 60 days of the transaction first appearing on your statement. when you open one, the credit

card company will likely contact the business for its side of the story. the company midigator says 78% of companies fight back. how long will a dispute take? discover says it's 30 to 60 days. i should note disputes are pretty rare. midigator says fewer than 2% of credit card charges are disputed but you have a good chance of disputing. for every ten, five win and five lose. if you lose, you might be able to appeal especially if there's new evidence. 5:27, right now and coming up next, top stories we're following today, including making sure covid vaccines are safe for kids and babies. details on two separate trials now being done in the bay area. plus, san francisco seems more ready than ever to hold onto what was a big change during the pandemic, a change you yourself may have enjoyed. why this is just one positive

right now at 5:30, water woes continuing. our region is dealing with bone dry conditions ahead of fire season. what you might have to do if you want to take longer showers and water your lawn and the big ask coming to customers in the south bay.

plus moving you forward coming back from the pandemic as "today in the bay" continues right now. good morning and thanks for joining us. i'm laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. we begin with video out of solano county showing you how real the fire danger is in the bay area. look at the grass fire in fairfield, about two acres burned last night. luckily no homes were threatened. this morning, live team coverage on the fire threat and the extremely dry conditions out there. "today in the bay's" bob redell has more on two big votes that could impact water customers at home. >> first a look at what meteorologist kari hall is looking at right now. a bigger picture of this problem out there, kari. >> so this drought is happening across the west. we can see all of the bright shades of red, which include the highest levels of drought exceptional. we are seeing that right here in the bay area and it's all because of the lack of rainfall we had this past winter, and so

it's made the reservoir levels continue to decline as we are just now heading into the driest month of the year. so as we look at our reservoir levels, they are only right now at about 26.9% of capacity, extremely low and we know that we have more months to go before we see any rain in the forecast, and this is also the case across the state with some of the much larger reservoirs running about 40% to 50% of capacity, we will continue to monitor that, and talk more about that especially as we are seeing those water restrictions, marcus and laura. >> thanks, kari. we want to bring in "today in the bay's" bob redell now live in san ramon, and as we get word that 2 million people might have to cut back on their water usage because of that drought and bob, some of the bills people will notice are going up. >> reporter: 2 million people in the south bay and 1.4 million in san ramon and other parts of the

east bay who see their water bills go up. 1.4 million customers of east bay mud, the water agency later this morning will vote on whether or not to raise the rates by 4% this july and another 4% next july and july o the additional money to pay for the replacement of old water pipelines, the upgrading of water and waste water treatment plants and for drought preparation. now tomorrow in the south bay, the santa clara valley water district is expected to declare a drought emergency and ask its 2 million customers to cut back their usage by 15% based on their usage from 2019. there are a number of reasons why water is so hard to come by, very dry winter has led to low snowpack in the sierra and the reservoir was nearly empty because of a project to make it more earthquake safe and then there's this. >> we're having trouble buying

water on the open market because everyone else is buying it at the same time, so not only buying it the price is ten times what it was two years ago, but actually transferring it, going into the regulatory process. >> reporter: because the valley water district is a wholesaler, it's up to each city and water company to decide how to meet the proposed mandatory restrictions. options include water cops and fines. we reached out to san jose water which is writing "we are currently closely monitoring our local supplies and preparing contingency plans in response to valley water's call for mandatory conservation." but the company did not say if their water rates would go up as a result. reporting live in san ramon, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thanks so much, bob. we see how dry it is behind bob there. take a look at this live look atlas vegas. the downtown strip there, but

they've got a really big drought concern in nevada. the state is banning 40% of grass in las vegas to conserve water amidst the worst drought in five years, grass you see in street medians, office parks, housing developments, they're just going to let it die. the ban does not apply to people's homes and back yards, however. the state hopes to save 15% of water every year. happening today, leaders in:can cloud cover county getting ready for what could be one of the worst fire seasons in california history. supervisors will hear from the office of emergency services and fire protection district during its regular meeting. fire experts will fill in residents what to expect, power outages, smoke during fires and limited water resources. the fire chief will talk about the most dangerous fire zones and lack of resources as well as the threat of illegal fireworks. 5:35 right now. we are following breaking news for you this morning, a major internet outage overnight,

really affecting dozens of high-traffic web sites. services slowly being restored as we speak. >> a lot of websites "new york times," cnn, reddit, twitch were down for hours. san francisco based fastly says it is working to fix that problem. the company provides cloud computing services helping companies store content and services around the world. scott mcgrew is working on this story and will bring us an update in 30 minutes. now to the pandemic, and later today alameda county health leaders expect the state to move them into the least restrictive yellow tier for covid restrictions. this is based on the current case data. here is where the counties stand one week before the state fully reopens. if things go as expected, contra costa, napa, sonoma and solano counties will end in the orange tier. a popular pandemic fixture may be here to stay in san francisco, we're talking about parkland expanded spaces critical in indoor dining in the

bay area. "today in the bay's" cierra johnson is live for us with that story and how some bay area companies and communities are working to recover financially from what happened during the pandemic. cierra? >> reporter: good morning, marcus. that's he' exactly right, these roads became fixtures within the city of san francisco, the only option for many restaurants and we only were allowed to dine outdoors and as you mentioned, these structures could become permanent, because san francisco supervisors voted in favor of that program, that happened yesterday according to "the chronicle" and the next step is a public hearing, that is scheduled for june 18th, followed by a full vote by the board of supervisors, just a few days later on june 22nd, and we should mention that we are just a week away from the state opening so this is coming at a critical time. this vote comes after governor gavin newsom made a stop in the bay area to share not only his

support of the permanent parklet program and another concept made popular during the pandemic, cocktails to go would also remain and while some restaurants are hoping to recoup some of that money they lost during the pandemic, san mateo county supervisors are working on a fund to help an array of businesses recover, supervisors there approved the san mateo county environmental health fee relief program, businesses like retail hospitality, pools, spas in san mateo county could receive funds to help cover things like state inspections, the inspections help those businesses remain open. in vallejo, councilmembers are expected to vote on a nearly $264 million budget and it appears the general fund revenue is expected to be about 15% higher than previous years, folks there saying it's a sign that the city is bouncing back, so many communities are working to recoup some of those losses,

we're inching closer to life pre-pandemic. we'll keep you updated on what happens with the vote with the parklets as well as what plays out, excuse me, what plays out there in san mateo with that relief program. we're moving you forward in san francisco, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> thanks so much, cierra. 5:39. kaiser is announcing plans to study vaccinations in kids ages 5 to 11. the trials will be held at three locations, oakland, sacramento and santa clara. 4,600 children are participating in the trial nationwide to evaluate the pfizer vaccine. the hospital is expected to talk about those efforts later today. in the meantime stanford plans to talk about its testing efforts and n younger kids later today. the hospital is part of a trial with pfizer to test its vaccine on children under the age of 5, including babies. the stanford researcher tells us if all goes well the vaccine could be available for the age group by late fall or the beginning of next year.

dovato is for some adults who are starting hiv-1 treatment or replacing their current hiv-1 regimen. with just 2 medicines in 1 pill, dovato is as effective as a 3-drug regimen... to help you reach and stay undetectable. research shows people who take hiv treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable can no longer transmit hiv through sex. don't take dovato if you're allergic to its ingredients or if you take dofetilide. taking dovato with dofetilide can cause serious or life-threatening side effects. hepatitis b can become harder to treat while on dovato. don't stop dovato without talking to your doctor, as your hepatitis b may worsen or become life-threatening. serious or life-threatening side effects can occur, including allergic reactions, lactic acid buildup, and liver problems. if you have a rash and other symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop dovato and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, or if you are, may be, or plan to be pregnant. dovato may harm your unborn baby.

use effective birth control while on dovato. do not breastfeed while taking dovato. most common side effects are headache, nausea, diarrhea, trouble sleeping, tiredness, and anxiety. so much goes into who i am. hiv medicine is one part of it. ask your doctor about dovato-i did. ♪♪

the time is 5:44, as you get ready to head out the door this morning, a live look outside in san jose, we're seeing a few clouds coming over the hill and our temperature in the low 50s right now, headed toward the low 60s by 11:00, enjoy some time outside. we'll talk about a warmup in the forecast coming up. and i see some cars coming over from the high-rise, eastbound headlights forward from the san mateo bridge, one car no headlights. sun coming up. we'll show you the drive and traffic coming up. >> kind of foggy out there. president biden getting ready for his trip to europe. in the meantime vice president harris is in mexico. >> scott mcgrew she made what you're calling a daring speech. >> remember harris has exactly

zero experience with foreign policy. she was california's attorney general, she was a senator so she has the ability but all eyes on her as she represents the united states in a foreign land for the first time. now this is video of harris arriving in mexico, she'll meet with the president of mexico to talk about immigration and the pandemic today. yesterday she was in guatemala city meeting with the president of guatemala. the headline is she told potential immigrants to stay home. don't come to america. you probably heard that sound bite. but i want to bring your attention to another part of her speech where she said out loud at the capitol that the united states needs the guatemalan government to clean up its corruption, while standing next to the president of guatemala. >> the issue of corruption, the conversation that i had with the president today was very frank, and very candid, and i think it

was a quality he and i appreciate in etch auto other. we don't have time for bluffing over concerns that we have. >> strong accusations in someone else's capitol. in our capitol the senate released a bipartisan report on the attack, showing how woefully underprepared the capitol police were to withstand the frontal attack. the report shows the police were warned weeks ahead of time of an attack by trump supporters or even that it was likely or possible. the justice department says it will continue to defend former president trump in a lawsuit brought by this woman, newspaper columnist e. jean carroll. trump said carroll was lying when she accused him of sexual assault. don't call me a liar, i'm telling the truth. he said this while he was president so the question becomes does the fact that he was president at the time mean calling an accuser a liar was part of his official duties and therefore he should be defended

by government lawyers? the doj under bill barr said yes but now the doj under merritt garland says they agree, yes, they should, the government is saying "speaking to the public and press on matters of public concern is undoubtedly part of an elected official's job, the questions were posed to him in his capacity as president." to be clear as far as the original acquisition of sexual assault, doj is not going to defend him on that. the allegation predates his presidency. they'll defend him for calling the alleged victim a liar, that happened during his presidency. we'll watch what vice president harris does in mexico and cover that on twitter. follow me i'm @scottmcgrew. >> thanks, scott. new details on a time line for a vote to recall governor newsom from office. the website calmatters spoke with political experts. many believe a recall vote will happen on a tuesday between mid-september and early november, and it may be sooner rather than later. the confusion comes because of
