advisories going into effect as that third storm system makes its way in it. mike, how is everyone doing on the roads? >> making their way into san francisco right now. the backup at the toll plaza, we don't always see this on a friday. i think the metering lights are slower because conditions like yesterday and the day before. we're watching the span itself. just wet roads. that's when we deal with slicker conditions. the radar pushes over to highway 24. i think these maybe clear but still on the report. this west 580 approaching, there's still a crash and activity and slowing for that portion of oakland. the radar you still see the green. that means it's still wet. some slowing at the high-rise. we'll check that out. smaller incidents, but wet roadways throughout the south bay. back over to you.

from the rain on the map to rain irl, the rain really coming down in the bay area this morning. and it really doesn't seem to be much dry pavement anywhere. >> that means dangerous driving conditions for the morning commute. bob redell is live. what are you seeing? >> reporter: we're definitely getting rained on. it's cool out. we have been getting dumped on for the past hour. you can see a sense of how gusty it is out here. then this is some video from earlier when the rain started coming down. i would say a decent downpour. like i said earlier, it's great to see this because we certainly need this. and we are getting it and hopefully we'll get enough to at least start seeing some saturation in the ground.

this is video into the newsroom in the past hour. this is from across the bay. you're looking at flooding on highway 280. this is in daly city. and you can see the flooding is so bad there was a car stalled in that area. so if you're driving in that area, with know the areas that typically flood during the heavy rainfall. this is something to keep an eye on. i want to come back out live and look east. you'll elect a half hour ago, we were able to see the headlights on westbound 580. you can't see them as well now. an indication we're getting more rain and it's clouding our view. we are not kpting there to be much flooding on the roadways. but they are going to be slick because a lot of the oils and liquids have been sitting on the roads for the past several months. so keep that in mind.

roads will be slick. watch your speed and the distance between you and the driver in front of you. >> thank you. the public works department is providing free sandbags to anyone who needs them. it's happening today and tomorrow, first come first serve at the entrance to prince park. you're encouraged to bring your own shovel. fire station 55 on point san pedro road and the menz it ies parking lot on mission avenue. you can track the storm on your phone. download the bay area app. one of the things you can access is the radar. you can zoom into your exact neighborhood and get a precise timeline on when the rain will it had. it's a great tool to plan your day or night. to the mystery out of florida. the fbi now confirming that human remains found in a nature reserve are those of brian laundrie. he's the 23-year-old man being

the fbi and local police have not taken any from reporters. will there be charges for the laundrie family. they were asked that question. that story coming up on "today." back to you. >> we'll be watching. thank you. developing this morning, a decorated former police officer is in serious but stable condition after this deadly shootout at a gas station. it was all captured on surveillance video. the incident started as an armed robbery. >> the bay area obtained exclusive video of the shooting which police could not verify. it shows three men approach the former police officer as he pumps gas. he pulls a gun and fired at one of the attackers who later died. when joiner continued a after the other attackers, he was shot multiple times. here's the chief.

this morning. you're looking ats the wet roads on the morning. rain has been pouring down overnight in part of the bay area. mike is keeping a close look on the roads. let's start with meet meteorologist vianey arana. >> this is it the second storm. we'll take any accumulation we can get. we're expecting about a quarter to a little over that under ab inch through the north bay from this second storm. storm ranger, you can see the radar there. starting to see some of the rain push out, but we have more behind it there. in through liver more, danville, on deck to get some of that rain pushing in. we're going to keep that rain through the first half of our morning. so by 8:00, we'll see the band start to make its exit. by 12:00, we'll get the partly

cloudy skies. 67 degrees, oakland at 64. san jose at 68. san francisco at 63. it is a little breezy, especially around the coastline. and i'm going to talk about the timing as far as our break goes into today and what to expect for saturday. and then the big storm heading into sunday. mike, how are the roads doing? >> take a look at this shot from palo alto. a live look shows the blurry look from our camera there on 101. the university there, just hitting the lens and enhancing the blur. but that will be the same for your windshield. make sure they are in good condition. look at this. a lot more radar activity down for the south bay. that will be a factor. all that rain causing puddling and ponding for the windy roadways. watch out.

and across over toward half-moon bay. a smoother drive over here in this area. and we have rain hitting that area. your typical pattern for the build, but a little more recovery as we had some rain and sol slowing here as well as crashes throughout the maize. this one over here on 580 just cleared heading toward 980. here's okay lance with a blurry look. back to you. halloween, next on today in the bay, the new promise for parents nervous about the shipping backlog ahead of the hall wae holiday its. and the warriors welcome back a full house. details on a game that came down to the wire. but first, it is still sinking. we're talking about the millennium tower. new data reviewed shows that san francisco's troubled tower

we are under a weather alert as the rain pushes through the

area. if you're heading to work, the roads are wet. if you're taking transportation, we'll get a break from the rain. starting at 10:00 a.m. to the afternoon, temperatures will be in the 60s we'll forecast on the timing of the big storm, coming up. as we look at the dublin camera, bob is in it this rain. these folks are driving through the rain. you see the water kicking up off the roadway. s so we're talking about a slower drive building. we'll show you the patterns and anything unexpected. there's a number of them going on in the east bay. coming up. we are looking at the futures this morning. wall street is set for a mixed open following some disappointing tech earnings. during the regular session, the s&p managed to eke autoa new high. the dow, naz dak and s&p are on track for three straight weeks of gains. halloween is only nine days

away. if you don't have your costume, you may have to grab a sheet and hope for the best. the global shipping crisis is causing halloween shortages specifically newer costumes are slow to arrive. some are not expected to show up until just days before the halloween weekend. >> it looks like the supply chain grinch will not be stealing mattel's christmas this year. the toy maker is raising its sales forecast ahead of the holiday season saying it pulled production forward, contracted more cargo ships and secured access to more ports in order to keep up with supply during the industry's most critical time of year. happening today, rain or shine, one of the bay area's most popular county fairs is about to open the doors. >> the alameda county fair is back after the pandemic ground things to a halt.

it starts at 11:00 this morning and runs until hal wean. usually it's held in the middle of summer, but despite the weekend storms, fair organizers plan to roll with it and make whatever adjustments are needed. some activities are happening indoors or in covered areas. >> usually you're sweating so hard at the fair when it happens in the summer. i kind of like this fall vibe. >> all the fall activities. especially stuff indoors. >> we're going to be hoping folks find the indoor activities. >> maybe a little shower activity, but it depends on where you live. but today, the big story and the reason why we're under the weather alert is that system falls right in time for when you have to head to work. we're here to get you covered. so san jose, i want to show you downtown. we're starting to see the sheen on the roadways in downtown san jose. and as you know, the south bay tends to fall in that rain

shadow. we're seeing some light rain. you can see the big emphasis. f. but we are getting just enough to where we're getting to see maybe a little under an inch for the north bay. so san francisco right now has another rain band starting to move through. we're starting to get some of the rain push through there as well and down through the south bay, there's the rain. you can see the heavier rain more along the coast. by the afternoon, we'll see a little bit of cloudy conditions, but some sunshine. temperatures will be comfortable in the 60s. if you didn't get a chance to get your tires checks, we had light rain. please do it today because

looking ahead, we're going get a break. this is two of three storms and then saturday afternoon we get some light showers and this is the rain outlook for that atmospheric river event heading into sunday with some of the highest totals for the coastal mountains and the north bay. we're also expected to see snow. rain shadow in some of the interior valleys, but we're going to get a good all the of rain through the south bay as well. some of those rain shadowed areas. this is gusty. a rainfall total. these are being a bit generous for the south bay. not taking into account rain shadow, but look at this. when you look at the colors here, just a little over an inch. it's monitoring the burns from

previous fires for potential for debris flow. no concern for the rivers right now, but could be some street flooding because any time we see an atmospheric river, we get a ton of water all at once. remember that yesterday, that's a great little short way to explain it. at least the southern end of it. we're going to keep the rain in the forecast. especially heading in towards the coastline and again those coastal mountains. but we have you covered here. i know who has you covered on traffic. mike inouye. >> surface streets likely blocked drains. a lot of debris. keep that in mind there will be standing water. you see standing water, find a way around it. we have water on the people.

and the rain eases up quite a bit there. another way of coming in hitting highway 101. we watch that because more folks come oefrg highway 37. the conditions a lot of rain on 37 and right around this area, we often have flooding. so that might be the factor. but that rain easing off as over the next hour it should be a better drive for most. a little slowing. nothing major. lighter friday traffic. the plue shows puddling along the peninsula. no major concerns, but the conditions, that's what's causing folks to slow as you should back to you. >> good advice. next on today in the bay, nbc bay area responds. >> we have two cases to tackle today. $600 power surge problem and $400 worth of tickets that never materialized. that's next. as we head to break, we want to share a picture of the moon taken by our own mike inouye. keep up with mike on instagram,

but as we head in towards the 8:00 hour, that's going to continue to move out east. and we'll get an afternoon break. temperatures will be in the 60s. i still want you to carry the umbrella if you live north of the golden gate bridge. there's a higher chance of seeing isolated showers. also around the coastline and in the city as well. so 60 degrees in san jose. maybe even a couple low 70s. and then the next chance of rain moves in heading into the weekend. i have you covered on that. just like mike as you corred on the roads. >> we showed the radar having pushed through. this camera stops seeing the active rain, but you still see the wet roadways. it's tougher of to see, but you can see it on the southbound side. so there you go, slicker conditions and the radar shows a similar thing. we swipe the radar and put it over the traffic maps. there's the activity pushing past the area and also through the trivalley. green shows you slick roadways.

watch those areas. but so far, the main freeways are moving pretty smoothly. the commute is lighter today that rain traveled through that area. a smoother drive as the rain pushed through. slowing from pittsburgh towards concorde. the rets rest of the commute is starting to lighten up. but we still have blurry screens over here. back to you. >> thank you, mike. you can see from this it look over the transamerica building that the area is still sol soggy weather there. the flag is whipping and then the rain drops are accumulating. the farther north, the more likely you are to feel the impact of the storm. thom jensen is life. we know there are some typical trouble spot there is. >>. >> reporter: there can be for flooding. that's no threat this morning.

that would have to rain like it has been this morning for several days for that to happen. we have been monitoring some power outages here. one very nearby that affects about 550 customers. i just checked with pg&e on their website and that's been drown graded to 164 customers right now. and that was a weather-related outage. another one farther up the north bay that they are also working on one thing that we have noticed is on the roads. there have been really bad conditions this morning. as i was coming in across highway 37, the rain was extremely heavy. it was pooling. it was runningen the highway. so be careful with the hydroplaning. everybody was keeping their speeds down. the same on 101 southbound coming in. more heavy rain. the water pooling. and we saw the same thing in mill valley. heavy rain, water pooling up in

parking lots. so the one thing you do the to watch out for as you head out is the heavy rain. we're expecting more of the same through the commuting hours. we have bye-bye seeing that this morning. be careful and keep it down a little bit slower. however, we don't expect to see the flood danger. the creek here. it's only two feet. it would have to come up more than another 11 feet before there would be any flooding can be concerns here. we're live, thom jensen, today in the bay. >> that's good news. look at what happened on this ramp off of interstate 280. this is the exit in daly city. the car is going through those high waters sending those rooster tails up into the air.

so it is a reminder to drivers that as you get ready to leave your house, be careful out there. sometimes it's hard to tell how deep the water is. >> we want to see what the rain looks like in your neighborhood. this vid owe was shared in san jose. we'll put your photos on the air. now to breaking news, pfizer says its data supports authorizing its covid vaccine in children ages 5 to 11. the fda releasing the briefing document ahead of the scheduled meeting of fda advisers on tuesday. now pfizer says it's in its main clinical trial it appeared to be more than 90% effective against symptomatic covid-19. the f detectives a is preparing its own analysis likely to be released later today.

with governor newsom. >> this is hard because i believe in redemption and second chances. he took away dreams. he took away hope. and this country, this world is radically changed as a consequence. >> watch the entire interview this weekend on "meet the press." it air this is sunday at 8:00 a.m. right after today in the bay. october is breast cancer awareness month and it's a good reminder for women over 40 to get a mammogram. a new study finds that screenings of san francisco general hospital dropped nearly 40% in 2020 compared to the year before. the largest drop was among african-american women. in that subset, younger women were most likely to miss their it screenings during the first stay at home order. women over 70 were most likely during the second stay at home order.

the study's author says we still don't know the full impact of that. >> that's something that we're definitely worried about as a cancer doctor community and oncology community of whether we're going to see patients coming in with larger tumors or tumors that have spread to other places because screening tests were lost. >> the american cancer society recommends women age 40 to 44 get an annual breast cancer screening. women 45 to 50 should get an annual mammogram. and 55 and older should get one one to two years. we have been tracking the rain coming dun hard all morning long since 4:00 this morning. our crews are out there ask they are getting soaked today in the bay's bob redell is live in dublin. have you had a second to to dry

it off yet? >> reporter: i do have a car with windows that seal, so yes. i don't like staying out in the rain, but it is refreshing to have this. we need it. i know my trees and bushes around the house need it. we have a lot of wind gusts and it's chilly. something to keep in mind. there's video we shot an hour ago. we really started getting the rain here. and it's been on and off ever since right now we're in a little bit of a lull, but we have had some heavy rains and drizzle. and we expect it to taper off as we get later into the morning. this is video from across the bay. this is on the peninsula. this is interstate 280 at geneva avenue. some flooding there, you can see a car stalled there as well. so there are a lot of the usual spots that flood in the bay area. if you have been here a long

time, you know where they are it at. they are probably flooding this morning depending on the respective locations. back out here live. we're in dublin. we're on a hill overlooking the trivalley. we're looking towards the east you see the head lamps there. those are the cars heading west on 580. that's your friday morning commute. and we have been talking about this all morning long. this is our first big heavy rain of the season. so a lot of those oils that have been settling on the freeway, they are going to come to the surface and make your drive really slick and slippery. that's something you want to keep in mind. and watch your speed. that's the safest speed to drive as conditions perlt. they might not permit that. maybe 55 miles an hour. reporting live here in dublin, bob redell, today in the bay. >> shout out to bob.

>> he's standing in the rain for all of us. thanks for that. we're going to get a ton more rain into the weekend. but the last of this rain is going to start to taper off. especially lot valleys. look at this. we have a couple more pockets of rain starting to make their move into san francisco. so we're not in the clear just yet. same goes for liver more. light rain there at times through the south bay. south bay tends to fall. any time we get a little bit of rain, it's a welcome sight. afternoon breaks, so the heaviest part of the storm is happening right now. it will continue at least into the next hour or so. right around 8:30, 9:00 a.m. still remaining for the north bay. take a look at the hour by hour outlook. 10:00 a.m., we'll see the majority start trekking east. if you have plans to travel,
