ukraine. four missiles striking lviv, part of the country that is considered a safe haven. a live report from washington on the growing death toll and the damage left behind from these latest attacks. >> plus, a day never forgotten. the way san francisco's remembering the lives lost as we mark 116 years since the 1906 earthquake. >> and today is the day taxes are due. procrastinators, you still have a few hours left. we'll walk you through it. this is "today in the bay." good monday morning. i'm ginger conejero saab. laura garcia is off today. >> and i'm marcus washington. and if you're on the go this morning, you can watch us live on roku, amazon fire, apple tv, and online. >> we'll get to breaking news in just a moment, but first we want to start with a look at the forecast. meteorologist kari hall is here to tell us just what we can expect on this monday morning. >> it's going to start out cold.

we're seeing that as well as the clear sky around the bay area. grab that warmer jacket. our temperatures in the north bay dip to the upper 30s. we're at 41 in martinez, 44 in san jose. here is a look at our afternoon forecast. overall it's going to be a really nice day. we'll start to see clouds moving in and the north bay will see rain by tonight, possibly by the evening commute as santa rosa reaches 64. we'll see a high of 71 in san martin. we will talk about the rain coming in later tonight in the forecast coming up. >> thank you so much. this morning we are following breaking news in ukraine. at least seven people are now confirmed dead after a suspected russian missile striking lviv. our nbc news crew was just feet away from the blast. "today in the bay's" brie jackson has been following the latest developments in yet another just horrible attack, brie. >> reporter: good morning,

marcus. that's right. and the nbc news crews were on the ground when that happened and they're said to be on lockdown right now. everyone is okay, but they were doing an interview when that missile struck. >> cruise missile, stand by. five, six. eight, nine, ten. there's the smoke. >> that's three. >> so three cruise missiles. >> yeah. >> reporter: now officials say seven people were killed and 11 others injured, including a child. lviv's mayor says a total of five missiles struck three military targets. the blast seriously damaged military infrastructure and destroyed nearly 40 cars. shockwaves from the missiles shattered the windows of a nearby hotel which was being used by ukrainians who have been

evacuated from other areas. as it looks set to launch a major offensive in the donbas region, russia has said it plans to step up attacks on kyiv and supplies in the country's west. white house officials said it's highly unlikely that president biden would visit ukraine in the near future. ukrainian officials warn that a takeover of the city of mariupol could put an end to peace talks. so far no sign that this war is coming to an end. >> and it just shows in time of war, is there really a safe place. brie jackson in washington this morning, thank you. happening today, a suspect involved in a shooting at a south bay mall will be in court. it happened last december at oak ridge mall in south san jose. police say the 18-year-old and his girlfriend were approached by two other men who then robbed them of their jewelry. officers say that's when hobson pulled out a gun and fired at the thieves. hobson is now charged with

attempted murder and is expected to enter a plea today. no one was injured in the shooting. the two other suspects were also arrested and face robbery charges. happening now, the city of san francisco is commemorating anniversary of the 1906 earthquake. we are expecting a moment of silence to honor the lives lost. >> "today in the bay" cierra johnson live in front of that area. this is just one of a number of ceremonies out there. >> reporter: good morning. that's exactly right. i want to keep my voice down because it is in progress right now. this is one of two this morning. we are in front, and you can see speakers are addressing the commemorative anniversary of the earthquake and fire. it's a chance to speak and next

stop will be delores park. in minutes we will hear from mayor london breed. around 5:11 there will be a moment of silence, the exact time the earthquake struck and it could be felt across the bay. one minute later at 5:12, sirens will break that moment of silence and there will be a musical selection of a song honoring the city. from there it's part two. everyone will then move to delores park. they'll paint the golden fire hydrant at 20th and church. it was found to be in working condition and saving many lives in the wake of the quake. and just a little additional information, the quake measured 7.9, left 250,000 people homeless, it killed about 3,000 folks. as you can imagine, a life-changing earthquake that played out back in 1906.

as you can see, the ceremony is in progress right now. that's why my voice is a little low. we will bring the live bell ringing, both on air and online. we're live in san francisco, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> we could barely hear her, but she was talking about at 5:12 we're going to come back. that marks the hour of when the earthquake hit. mayor breed will be there, as well as former mayor willy brown. thank you so much for that. as we count down to earth day, nbc news is rolling out stories across the network dedicated to the environment. >> "today's" al roker spoke with meteorologist kari hall about our drought and the climate crisis. >> in california, my gosh, the drought, it seems like you're in a perpetual state of drought. that's a big deal. and what are you going to do to

resources on our planet, water. >> water here is like gold. so a lot of us here think about going electric and stop using fossil fuels. what will you be covering in your series? >> you know, there's the usual suspects, but there are some really interesting innovations going on. the yellow school bus, the iconic yellow school bus, how many hundreds of thousands are there across the country? if we could convert those fleets to electric, that would eliminate a huge source of greenhouse gases. so it's those little things and big things that can make a huge difference. >> yeah, cutting those emissions, that's very important. there are so many other challenges that we face, as we talked about our lack of water. what will be some of the other topics you're covering? >> well, one of the things we're looking at, and when we talk about solutions, is that this next generation coming up, the social media generation is not

going to take this lying down. they want change and they're using their social media to speak out, to hold corporate and governmental entities' feet to the fire to demand change, because they expect the places that they frequent, the companies that they buy products from, to be good corporate planet citizens, and that's going to make a big difference, too. >> now, april 22nd is earth day. all this week the "today" show and us here at "today in the bay," we're going to focus on our climate in crisis and ways that you can help our planet. you can find out more information right now at nbcbayarea.com. kari, that was a very interesting conversation to hear you talk about, and it's interesting to see gen-z's role. >> you can see more of the stories on the "today" show. let's get you ready for the day, as you get ready to head out. we're starting out with temperatures that are feeling a little bit chilly out there with some mid-40s in oakland as you're stepping out the door. we have some low 40s, we'll see

the clouds gradually starting to increase. as we head for the upper 50s. look at our high temperature for today, 68 degrees. you can for the most part leave your umbrella at home unless you're in the north bay and you will be out late this evening. heading out the door, what's going on with the commute? >> we have one hazard to point out, chp calls this out in the east bay, san lorenzo, there's a little slowing because of the build and volume coming off the castro valley y heading to this transition, north 238 to south 880. making that turn and heading toward hayward, you'll find a disabled vehicle sticking out, so just be careful. some flashing lights should arrive shortly. the rest of the bay, no real brake lights except for out of the altamont and a little on highway 4. back to you. >> thanks, mike. time in running out to file your taxes. ahead on "today in the bay," what you need to keep in mind if you haven't filed yet.

stay with us. you're watching "today in the bay."

looking at the annual ceremony marking the anniversary of the great san francisco earthquake. the ceremony is under way right now. it has been exactly 116 years since that earthquake hit, an estimated magnitude 7.9, hitting the city and destroying much of

san francisco, sparking a devastating fire. every firefighter and city leader gathered at the historical foundation in downtown. exactly in just a few seconds here, you can hear it. let's listen in. ♪ it only takes a tiny corner ♪ ♪ of this great big world ♪ ♪ to find a place we love ♪ ♪ my home upon the hill ♪ ♪ i love you still ♪ ♪ i've been away but now i'm back to tell you ♪ ♪ san francisco, open your golden gates ♪ ♪ we'll let no stranger wait outside my door ♪ ♪ san francisco, here is your wandering one ♪ >> in just a few moments we will

hear the bell ringing for the 3,000 who died. the crowd there will then walk to golden fire hydrant, the only source of water at that time. it's responsible for saving part of the mission district. of course, this is a big moment in san francisco history. >> that's right. even if you were to take some of the tours around the city, it's really talked about quite a bit. there's the fire hydrant on 20th and church that was responsible for saving so many more lives. we're talking about hearing the bell that commemorates the 3,000 lives lost, but imagine the further damage and impact the earthquake and the succeeding fires would have had had that water source not been open. >> yeah, 116 years today. we want to get a look at the forecast this morning. meteorologist kari hall has been monitoring what we can expect today. >> as you're heading out the door this morning in the tri-valley, here's a live look outside in dublin. we can see there's a lot of people already up and out the

door, with temperatures in the low 40s. we are going to be warming up really nice as we get a mix of sun and clouds, heading for the upper 60s. a look at our microclimates coming up. >> and not quite as many headlights as 580, but here is 280 coming toward us underneath 880. silicon valley not yet woken up for the commute, but we are having more folks return to the office. we're tracking the changes. happen monday to you. it's monday and also tax day. normally that would be the 15th, but the 15th was a holiday so they kicked it to today. a reminder, this year there will be questions about whether you made money off things like robinhood or coin base, profits from stock or cryptocurrency. you've always had to pay taxes on money you make off investments, but some younger people may not realize that. if you file electronically you can watch the progress of your return, if you have one, at

irs.gov/refund. i'll put that on my twitter and facebook. if you aren't ready to file tax forms, you can get an extension. our consumer reporter, chris chmura, explains how. go to nbcbayarea.com/howto. keep in mind, for an extension you do have to estimate and pay whatever tax you think you owe. so you kind of have to do your taxes one way or the other. other news, shares in twitter nowhere near what elon musk offered for them last week, meaning investors are not taking musk's offer seriously. the company's board moved to block musk's offer at $54.20. if investors really thought musk was going to move forward on this or especially if he were going to raise his offer, twitter shares would not be trading nearly $10 below the bid. musk makes it very difficult to understand when he's being serious. his announcement that he wanted to buy the company came in a text message to the twitter

board chairman. i've decided i want to acquire the company and take it priev. president biden says he'll allow more drilling on federal land, in an effort to bring down oil prices. oil companies already have federal drilling leases they're not using. we'll talk more about that as we talk politics in about 30 minutes. as you imagine, the people on biden's side of the aisle, the democrats not excited by this, because he promised to cut down on federal drilling, not increase it. >> that's always a big topic. scott, thank you. >> we'll get into that more. i'm sure you guys were also paying attention to this over the weekend. the warriors are set for game two of their playoff series against the denver nuggets tonight at chase center. over the weekend, that was game one. the team welcomed back steph curry on saturday night in the first game. curry didn't start, but he still scored 16 points in just 22 minutes. the big star of the night, jordan poole, he scored 30 points to help lead the warriors to an easy 123-107 win.

now, tip-off at chase center tonight is at 7:00 p.m. and trending this morning, rochester, new york, may not be gotham city, but that isn't stopping batman from swooping in to help the city's homeless. >> just like the actual superhero, his identity is private. he's called "the batman" of san jose. he says he is not helping people for the superhero title, but he really wants the attention to motivate others to lend a hand. he says that starting helping the homeless, he did that in the community four years ago in san jose, hence the name, and that's where his bat signal lit up for the first time. pretty cool. >> that's pretty cool, batman with a little red wagon. >> not the super hero. >> not the bat mobile. >> but helping those in need. help us with the forecast, because a lot of people wonder do i need a coat today, rain

gear. >> a little bit of everything. definitely a cape, that's part of the wardrobe today. we are going to start out with a need for a coat, especially in the north bay. check out santa rosa. it is 35 degrees. that is really cold. we're going to see these temperatures warming up as we head for the mid-60s there and the rain comes in tonight, first starting out in the north bay. that's where you will need the rain jacket and some of that gear earlier in the day. taking a look at our high temperatures for the east bay, we'll reach up to 71 in river moore, and mount view reaching 71 degrees. the seven-day forecast is at the bottom of the screen. we will see the morning showers moving in. they're tomorrow around the bay area, but then moving out as we get ready for more rounds of rain. so this is what's going to be coming into the north bay later this evening, and then quickly pushing through for tonight. let's go hour-by-hour so you can plan out your day. at 6:30 this evening we're

seeing hit-or-miss rain moving through the bay and you can see the darker shades of green and yellow that shows the heavy rain that will be coming through before sunrise. as we wake up and head out there's still going to be a couple of lingering showers, but most of the rain will already be clearing out. as far as how much to expect, it's definitely going to be a bigger deal for the north bay. parts of the santa cruz mountains we could see 0.25 or more in some spots, and then less toward the east. then we're going soy additional rainfall throughout the week. this week we may get over 0.5 of an inch for the south bay and possibly 1 inch for parts of the north bay. we're going to stay in this active weather pattern with more rain and snow. we see round after round of rain coming through this week. this is really great news considering how dry it's been recently, and seeing that the sierra snowpack is only about a

quarter of the normal amount we get. but it has been increasing and it will continue to do so as we get more snow this week. we do have the potential over the next several days to get about 10, possibly up to 27 inches of snow. that's going to be great for maybe holding the ski season open a little bit longer, possibly into memorial day. we're really hoping for that. as we get a look at our temperatures this week, off and on rain, highs in the 60s, and that's going to be about normal for this time of year, but maybe some above-normal rainfall. mike is saying it's pretty quiet around the bay area. >> pretty quiet. looking at a smooth drive right now coming out of the north bay, across both bridges, no problems. no wind advisories for these particular bridges, at least from chp's standpoint. they have a sign lit up on the san mateo bridge talking about the potential for high winds. no problems reported and dry roadways. kari does talk about the changes that might happen later on

today, but this morning's commute should be fine. a little slowing for 238 right at the 880 interchange, the connecter is open. so is this altamont pass area and it's funneling traffic, a little more slowing, vasco road basically at speed down toward 580 where it joins. back over to you. >> it's all green for now. >> we like that. 5:22, next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> reporter: historic new rules are rolling out for cruise passengers. we'll show you how they protect you next.

this is elodia. she's a recording artist. 1 of 10 million people that comcast has connected to affordable internet in the last 10 years. and this is emmanuel, a future recording artist, and one of the millions of students we're connecting throughout the next 10. through projectup, comcast is committing $1 billion so millions more students, past... and present, can continue to get the tools they need

to build a future of unlimited possibilities.

enjoy an ocean or river cruise, today you have new rights. >> consumer investigator chris chmura has a look at them. >> reporter: good morning. since the pandemic started, our responds team has recovered tens of thousands of dollars for cruise passengers who had a hassle getting refunds for canceled sailings. and we are not alone. the federal maritime commission got a flood of complaints, too. now it's taking action. the commission is setting an industry-wide standard for cruises that start in the u.s. new federal rules that start today require a refund whenever a cruise is canceled or delayed at least three days and you don't go. now, you can voluntarily agree to a credit with the cruise line. otherwise, you get your money back. you also get back any ancillary

fees you paid. >> it doesn't matter which cruise line you buy your ticket from, you're going to get treated the same across the board. you're going to have the right to get a refund. >> we asked the cruise line industry association for its take, but we didn't receive a response. you can contact us with your consumer complaints. go to nbcbayarea.com, click the responds option from the main menu or all us 888-966-tips. now to a live look at the coliseum where the oakland a's will be playing after starting the season with ten straight games on the road. the team's home opener is tonight against the baltimore orioles. now, if you plan on going to the game, be prepared to show proof you've been vaccinated against covid. fans do not need proof of vaccination to attend the game, but you will need it to enter any indoor spaces. now, that's because the city of oakland still has an ordinance in place for indoors. at the coliseum that includes the treehouse, bullet bar and

two indoor team stores. >> 5:26. next on "today in the bay." the top stories we're following, including more snow heading to the sierra. here's a live look this morning at palisades tahoe. the reason experts do not think that new snow will be a big enough push to make a difference in our water supply. plus -- >> reporter: if you are a patient of sutter health, you could feel a disruption in your health care, and that's because nurses are walking out on strike. i'll give you the details when that's going to happen and where you might feel that. you're watching "today in the bay".

the forecast coming up in just a few minutes. breaking right now, at least seven people are dead following a suspected russian missile attack in lviv. according to local officials, at least 11 others were injured as well, including one child. ukrainian officials said missiles struck three military targets and a fourth hit a tire fitting center. the blast seriously damaged a military infrastructure and destroyed nearly 40 cars. now, nbc news has nearby in a hotel on lockdown and heard those explosions. this is a picture from a crew who was on the ground at that time. our scott mcgrew will have much more on the war in just about ten minutes. and happening today, more than 8,000 nurses are going on strike, and if your provider is sutter health it could impact you. "today in the bay's" kris sanchez joins us live from burlingame where picketing will

begin within hours. >> good morning to you, ginger. both sides say that they are interested in patient health and safety. where they differ is how to get those nurses back to those patients' bedsides. we know nurses are going to go on strike, along with other health care workers this morning after negotiations ended last night, after ten months of negotiating, even with the help of a federal mediator. so these nurses and health care workers will start striking at 7:00 this morning. it is a one-day strike, and several facilities in the bay area will be impacted, as well as other northern california facilities. the nurses say they are fighting for their own safety as well as that of their patients. >> we've put forth proposals that encompass things that are really important to nurses, things like safe staffing, things like safer infectious disease protections, things like a voice in pandemic preparedness, and they haven't given us meaningful responses to those proposals for the last

eight, nine months. >> reporter: now, sutter health contends that it does staff at safe levels and released this statement saying, in part, we will staff our hospitals on monday with the contracted replacement workers where needed. we hope the cna union will call off the strike so the nurses can to work and care for patients. here with the sutter health locations where nurses will strike between 7:00 and 11:00 this morning and 1:00 to 6:00 later today. burlingame where we are this morning, castro valley, oakland, san francisco, berkeley and antioch. we will keep you updated as the strike begins. again, it's set to start at 7:00 this morning. in burlingame, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thanks a lot. we'll be looking forward to your update. this morning many bay area pharmacy shelves are empty as cold and flu season is on the rise. cdc says that overall influenza positivity rates is something going up.

they are saying about 8.5% it's going up, actually. the parents we spoke with say they noticed a lack of cold and flu remedies on store shelves. bay area specialist monica gandy isn't prized. she says it also happened a year ago. >> when we're in a lull we have all these other people getting colds and flus and things come back in. >> dr. gandy also says that she expects the downturn in coronavirus cases to continue into the fall due to covid now, a wild night in the south bay. not one, but two sideshows drawing crowds of people and eventually the police last night. one sideshow was in the area of fruit dale and meridian, car after car spun out with their tires screeching dangerously

close to the crowds. san jose police department's helicopter was overhead and at least 15 squad cars arrived on scene. police are being tight-lipped about it, so we don't know if they have arrested any of the drivers or impounded any of those cars. [ tires screeching ] >> that is dangerously close. now, this is video of a second sideshow in san jose. this one was at capital expressway and capital avenue. we don't know if the two are connected. now, we haven't heard reports of any injuries and no word on any arrests or seized cars. also in san jose, more than a dozen police officers shut down the intersection of story road and jackson avenue late last night. police aren't saying what happened. here's what we could see. in addition to the closed roads, the crime scene tape is stretched around the gas pumps and parking lot of a rotten

robbie's. one police car was inside that roped-off area, but officers have not said a word about the incident. the area is now back open this morning. we want to take a live look out at the sierra this morning. this is palisades tahoe where we could see more snow later this week. the recent storm brought several feet of snow to the bay area and it could cause for a busy weekend in tahoe. but long-term experts say that these late storms will barely make a dent in what is needed in what has been a dismal snow and rain season for us, and now skiers and snowboarders say they're just happy to get what they're getting. >> i'm still worried about the lack of rain, but we're fortunate that we're getting some snowfall. >> and, of course, that snowfall is something that's beautiful to see, but certainly not making a huge impact that we need, anyway. >> it's been going up a couple of percentage points as we take a look at our overall center

snowpack. this is how it compares to the normal amount of snow for this date. and we're only at 28% of the normal amount of snowfall. really let that sink in, it is extremely low. and while we do get some additional snow this week, it may go up another couple of percentage points by the end of the week, as we even get about 2 to maybe even over 2 feet of snow over the next several days. we are into this active weather pattern, but the closer we get to may, the higher the chance that any rain we get will be just rain for the sierra. here is the next storm system that's going to be coming into the north bay by late this evening and we'll see it quickly sweeping through the bay area, leaving about 0.25 of rain in some spots. we see more storms behind that. mike, you're tracking a number of spots to watch. >> that's right. one is for now, a number for later. predictive traffic is what we

also do about this time. we're looking at some slowing off the castro valley y, maybe a little worse because of the continuing hazard, the disabled vehicle, possibly two affecting folks getting to the connecter. southbound 880, your commute out of castro valley and down toward hayward, the san mateo bridge and areas south. if you're heading north, you're just fine right now. looking ahead, the a's are playing tonight. so right around the coliseum, it's a 6:40 game and crowds tend to get to the game early, get food. so that will enhance the traffic around 66th and 98th. over here on the other side, the waterfront arena here at chase center, the warriors. these are playoffs, so we need even more energy and we'll have even more traffic. that's game two of the series. the rest of the bay right now, a nice, easy drive with expected

slowdowns. we had indoor football and it's back again. bay area panthers at s.a.p. center tonight at 6:00, the return of indoor football. mom said don't play ball in the house unless you're the panthers. back to you. >> thanks. 5:40 this morning. after missing for three years, a california teen is finally found. still ahead on "today in the bay," how police were able to identify that teen and reunite him with his family. >> new moves from the white house this morning to lower gas prices and the very latest from ukraine. plus -- >> we think it's especially important that there be really intentional and targeted efforts to reach them to support latino-led organizations, entrepreneurs and so forth. >> everyone is dealing with inflation, but the latino community is being especially hit hard. we've got tips to help all families trying to make it in the bay. stay with us. you're watching "today in the bay."

i'm mark and i live in vero beach, florida. my wife and i have three children. ruthann and i like to hike. we eat healthy. we exercise. i noticed i wasn't as sharp as i used to be. my wife introduced me to prevagen and so i said "yeah, i'll try it out." i noticed that i felt sharper, i felt like i was able to respond to things quicker.

and i thought, yeah, it works for me. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. right now at 5:43, let's check out our temperature trend in san jose. starting out chilly, upper 40s, we'll see a mix of sun and clouds. notice by later this afternoon, more clouds moving in as we reach up to 71 degrees. we will see rain coming in late tonight. we'll show you the timeline and >> more lights here on the san mateo bridge, taillights traveling west with the sign on the right saying you've got to

use hands-free cell to be legal there. looking at the high-rise, no problems getting through the peninsula. the biden administration is opening up more federal land for drilling. >> scott mcgrew, this is the opposite of what president biden promised on the campaign trail. >> that's right. we're right to remind you of that, but circumstances do change. biden certainly didn't anticipate a war in europe, none of us did. industry experts say it will take at least six months for this week's announcement to have any effect on gas prices. 144,000 acres of government land now open to new drilling. keep in mind oil companies already have millions of oil-rich acres under lease. they're not drilling there at all. president biden reminded them of that as he announced new plans to fight gas prices last month. >> to help execute this first pay fees on wells on federal a

leases they they're hoarding without production. few weeks as part of their ies quarterly reports. this will be the first time we'll get a really good idea how much the sanctions against russia are affecting our companies' bottom line, how much business they lost in russia. president biden will get a major briefing from top military brass this week on the situation in ukraine. we can tell you what we know from overnight. the russian defense ministry released video on telegram showing russian military leaders reviewing the ranks of surviving sailers from the missile cruiser. they originally said it sank after an accidental fire, but the russian media is not buying that. ukraine says ukrainian missiles sank it. the city of mariupol, down in

the south, may fall to the russians any time, though ukrainians seem to be fighting to the last man. most of the fighting is over to the east and to the south, but we've been reporting on rocket strikes in lviv. not the first time, but look at how close lviv is to the nato border, about 45 minutes. one of these rockets overshoots this ta nbc news crews watched those missiles overhead in lviv. >> that was a cruise missile. >> they're firing in 30-second intervals. >> smoke. >> stand by. >> cruise missile, caliber, stand by. >> five, six. eight, nine, ten. >> there's the smoke. >> frightening, indeed. a reminder of how lucky we are

here at home. the easter egg war will take place and ginger will have more on that on our midday news. >> thank you. a northern california man is back home safe this morning. investigators found him after he went missing for three years. >> are you cold? you want to come sit in his car and warm up for a minute? >> conner jack oswald left his family's clear lake home in 2019 when he was 17. utah police located him shivering outside of a convenience store on saturday after reports he was seen walking around with a shopping cart. now, oswald is on the autism spectrum. officers contacted his family, who now lives in idaho and they were reunited. it is 5:47 this morning, record inflation hitting many people trying to make it in the bay, from gas prices to

groceries. prices are on the rise. i was able to chat with max vargas, the new vice president of the economic justice with the latino community foundation. we talked about a lot of things, including the impact of these rising costs. >> in california, as you may well know and a lot of the viewers know, the cost of living is already significantly high, especially in some of our large metro areas, such as san francisco bay area, silicon valley area, and that's exactly where we're seeing pronounced impact from the inflation on top of some existing high costs. for communities like the latino community, who have been bearing the community of if economic fallout from the pandemic, this is exceptionally high. some of the highest costs around inflation have been around energy and food. on the energy front we're talking utilities, so some of the basic necessities that are starting to squeeze folks on top of other costs such as housing. for the latino community in particular, you add these on top

of the fact that when the pandemic struck they were twice as likely to have lost their jobs and were already starting with some of the largest wage gaps. >> talk to us about specific things latino families can do in the bay area to get assistance. we know the need is there. is there assistance and how can they get that? >> yeah, absolutely. so we're excited, actually, to announce that we've awarded $1.4 million to latino-led organizations across the state to leverage these efforts for recovery. you've heard the large federal numbers, the $1.9 trillion in the american rescue plan, and we're coupling to help those in the bay area and silicon valley as well that can help support our community in accessing those dollars, because we know that when things happen at the federal level, as well-intentioned as they are, we want to make sure that reaches our communities, their

pocketbooks, and our state overall. we can't have a full and robust recovery if our latino families aren't recovering in california. i will add in addition to that, that there is still time. the 18th is actually the last day to file taxes, and file for the earned income tax credit. so the california earned income tax credit is just vital for many families in many communities, and unfortunately $76 million goes unclaimed every year and believe it or not, half of that is for latino households. there is money that could be helping the latino community, the state overall and our recovery. >> i wish you the best on your new position and bridging the need it. thank a lot more, so you can find out all of that. he was just named the vice president of the foundation less than two weeks ago. you can hear more about his plans as he tries to tackle the economic difficulties head-on.

up here toward mountain view, remember, google is asking people to come back to the office and also those express lanes that were instituted a few months ago, that causes some slowing. that's fewer lanes for folks who are not going to pay the express fee. over here it looks like they may have cleared the disabled vehicle in san lorenzo, and now more traffic heading toward hayward. no major issues through the east bay. there's the bay bridge with a smooth drive. back to you. >> thank you so much. happening now, walnut creek leaders are set to decide whether to ex stand cannabis sales in the city. the city currently allows up to two delivery services for medical use. currently there's only one operating in walnut creek. council members will vote tomorrow whether to expand sales to include non-medical delivery services. if approved, they must also decide how many companies they will allow to operate. >> keeping clean while reducing waste. next on "today in the bay," we kick off our earth week by showing you the simple way you
