an important election gearing up there right now. we're going to hear from the mayoral candidates coming up in a few minutes. >> a helpful guide for sure. we'll check in with mike as traffic starts to build up but we want to look at kari's forecast, because yesterday we needed a sweater like in the middle of the day. >> right, that's ale going to be the same case today, as you're heading out in oakland, we're in the upper 40s as you're heading out the door and temperatures only reach into the upper 50s before it stops warming up from there. we're going to see still a cool day, windy conditions at times. san jose reaching 62, also 62 in napa and a few spots may get in on some rain so i'll be watching that and we'll talk about it in your forecast, coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks, kari. developing now, some water customerness in the bay area facing a critical deadline. >> reduce your water usage by 30%, that's the word from the city of benicia in an emergency announcement. laura garcia joins us now. this is not because of the

drought, but 30% is a lot. >> yes, and they're asking people to do it immediately. good morning to both of you. the critical ask is coming wate treatment plant in benicia. they don't know exactly when it happened but benicia's mayor said it most likely happened saturday night or early sunday morning. crews have been working around the clock to fix it. but the work they say could take a week or more. part of the restrictions include no outdoor water use. as for the water coming into your homes and businesses now, benicia's mayor says it is safe to continue to use even during repairs. >> we are confident that we're going to get this fixed without too much trouble but you never know until you dig in and you see how big the problem is. >> now the cutback comes at an especially bad time after the

dry weather we've been having, the dry start to the year, the city is expected to give an update on the situation this morning but the good news is the water is safe to drink. they're asking people to cut back wherever and whenever they can, at least 30%. if you could do more, something we're all trying to do as we try to conserve, right, kris? >> let's hold off on the laundry then. you don't have to ask me twice. thank you, laura. russia celebrating a victory today not in ukraine but defeating the nazis in world war ii. the celebratory scenes are playing out across moscow and western leaders are watching closely wary that russian leader vladimir putin may use this occasion to's skate that assault on ukraine. first lady jill biden is in slovakia sitting down with that country's president. she made a surprise visit to ukraine yesterday on mother's

day. she was supposed to go close to the border but crossed the border. she met with her ukrainian counterpart president zelenskyy's wife, who has not been seen in public since the war began. >> this war has been brutal, and that people of the united states stand with the people of ukraine. >> the first lady returns to washington tonight. okay t is 6:04 for you right now. we want to talk about those gas prices near record-breaking territory, and making things all the more difficult for everyone just trying to make it in the bay. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live for us in contra costa county and bob, we could start to see national all-time highs as soon as today? >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus. unfortunately you're correct. right now the average gallon of gas nationwide is around $4.30. that's just pennies way from the all-time record. for us here in the bay area and california that would be a bargain.

this shell station in san ramon $6.25 for a gallon of regular gas. which is above average but unfortunately in the ball park for what we're used to paying. you see these numbers from the weekend from aaa, you could see most of our counties, this is from over the weekend are averaging anywhere from $5.80 to just over $6 for a gallon of gas. statewide the average is $5.82, not much more than it was a month ago, but a steep increase from a year ago when gas was just over four bucks a gallon. >> i think california that shock and awe happens at $6 a gallon and i think for the rest of the country, a lot of consumers are probably saying $5 a gallon, given the fact that the economy is seeing some strength coming out of covid, i think consumers have a little bit more appetite to hit the road, that is $4 may slow them down but i think it's the $5 mark where there's a real sticking point. >> reporter: that was patrick de haan, he had a petroleum

analysis at gas buddy, he says prices are up because demand is going up as we approach the memorial day travel holiday and oil prizes have risen. europe wants to sanction russian oil because of its invasion of ukraine. reporting live here in san ramon, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> it gets harder and harder each day as the prices go up, up and up. bob redell, thanks so much, bob. it is 6:06 now. firefighters not saying whether they know what sparked a fire that heavily damaged two neighboring duplexes in san jose. this happened a little before 7:00 last night at roundtable and bendorf drive near the 101/85 interchange. everybody made it out safely but more than two dozen people are now displaced and the red cross is assisting. to decision 2022 now, and we are now less than a month away from deciding several key bay area races.

permanent supportive housing and to expand our services for mental health and drug treatment so people can get back on their feet. >> i'm running for mayor because i believe the solutions to homelessness, affordable housing and climate change come from the people and the compromise between them, not from fruitless arguments about nothing, because we can build a beautiful city. yes, we can. >> helping 40,000 homeless people find a home, they created a national model by quickly processing dna arresting rapists. working with police officers and neighborhood leaders, i know we can make san jose the safest big city in america again. >> i stood alone against studying the issue of non-citizen voting. i'll bring honesty and transparency back to city

government, restore san jose to the safest big city in america and preserve our neighborhood. we must build housing the average person can afford and tackle homelessness and blight. i look forward to your support for me. >> i'm running for mayor because i want to keep fossil fuels in the ground and make san jose a food garden again. if you're interested in learning more about how i will make san jose a global leader and the effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions visit marshallwoodmansee.com and reach out to me to start this important discussion about the future of our community. >> families in san jose are working harder than ever and our city government needs to work just as hard as you do. my name is matt mahan and i don't believe politicians should get automatic raises until san jose does a better job addressing homelessness, rebuilding our police department, and cleaning up our city.

this afternoon. low to mid-60s for today, gusty winds through the coast and delta and we may see a few spots getting in on some rain. we're watching that and talk about the changes ahead as we go from winter to summer all in the course of a few days. like you're looking closely at the bay bridge, mike? >> the bay bridge toll plaza kicked in over the last seven minutes. we saw lanes go from sparsely populated to fully packed right here. now that's not a surprise and not a problem coming off the east shore freeway, the arrow shows you across the span of the metering lights should probably slow down a bit and that will clear up things there. we're looking at a pretty standard build out of contra costa county. in the north bay we have a crash on the shoulder i'm told, what chp says northbound 29 at 221, but that is a narrow roadway causing quite a distraction for that portion headed in through napa. the rest of the bay moves smoothly. back to you. >> thanks, mike. 6:11 right now. new details in the small plane crash in marin. still ahead at 6:25, we get a

in the forecast as well as where we could see some rain coming up. >> across the bay a's are out of town, easy drive and the build we'll see how the trends continue coming up. good morning, very happy monday to you. you remember that picture of those children that were doing homework outside a taco bell in salinas, sitting on the curb outside the restaurant in monterey county because they could get taco bell's free internet by sitting out there. it was taken by a county supervisor and it really illustrated the digital divide, the haves and the have nots when it comes to the internet. the white house this morning announced 20 american internet companies have agreed to take part in a plan to provide relatively high speed internet to poor families. the companies will lower their rates, the government will subsidize the remaining cost up

to 30 bucks a month so in most days it will entirely free to any american who wants it. it's part of the $3 trillion infrastructure package. spectrum and comcast which provide a lot of the internet in the bay area are taking part. i should point out this tv station is owned by comcast. the new low-cost carrier breeze airlines is adding another route from sfo, this time to provo, utah, about 45 minutes south of salt lake city and has all that great skiing. breeze saves money flying into smaller airports near big cities and saving the landing fees. uber's ceo sent a memo to employees, saying the company would slow down hiring and cut costs in an effort to become profitable. recently, meta facebook said it would slow hiring, robinhood cutting staff. all the companies are desperate for workers. on friday we got the jobs report showing another 200,000 jobs added at a time

when companies can't fill old jobs. it's estimated 11 million jobs are out there looking for a person. watch shares in rivian today. the lock-up period on that company has ended. that means the original investors who were not allowed to sell their ownership as part of the company as it went public can do whatever they want. cnbc says ford originally an investor is getting out. you see kris and marcus, the share price $28.79. that's where it closed on friday. cnbc says ford will sell it at $26 a share at a discount to make sure it gets sold. that's unnerved a lot of investors. >> the sell-off do you think is because they're making their own trucks, ford? >> but still why not have a hand in everything? >> right. >> rivian when they went on what they call the road show, explained how great their company was going to be had a number of trucks they were going to make and they're only making

about half, doesn't mean they can't ramp up to it but they're not performing as well as i think a lot of people had hoped. >> could we see what we saw with tesla? remember it was like $30, $60 a share, now $800. >> when tesla first got started they'd miss production deadlines and numbers all the time. now they're just churning them out like mad. ford is still an infinitely bigger company but tesla really got it turned around and doing well. >> nobody knows arivian's ceo like we do elon musk. thanks for that, we're grateful. 6:19 this morning. happening today, meta's first physical store set to open its doors in burling meta the parent company of facebook says the store will allow people to gets hands-on experience with all of its products, among the highlights, interactive demos showing how the company's virtual reality equipment works. so trending for you this

of some spotty showers, we know we need the rain, but this one really not helping us out that much. there may be some spots getting up to a tenth of an inch of rain and other spots that get nothing but at least the sierra could see some snow and we could see snowfall totals from two to six inches for some upper elevations. we're starting out the week cool and we go from winter to spring and then this weekend summer. we're going to see highs in the upper 80s in some spots hitting 90 degrees. big changes this week, and we're also looking at some very cool temperatures for today, once again reaching up to about 60 degrees, mid-60s midweek and then 75 on thursday. you can see the warmup and then we'll be reaching into those mid 80s for the weekend, in san francisco not as warm, we're only looking at highs in the mid-70s. mike, you're keeping an eye on a couple of spots with the gusty winds. >> kari, like the san mateo bridge with the sign over here on the right is lit up, talking

about reducing speeds, that's what you want to do when it's higher wind speeds because the wind augments your speed there. so that's a smooth drive but still that note for the san mateo bridge. same thing across the bay bridge and the carquinez bridge, watch the altamont pass though no advisories and no surprises for the trend as we slow across the bay bridge, ac ross the span, highway 4, 37, contra costa county and here's vasco road. back to you. >> thanks, mike. we always tell you that nbc bay area responds to a lot of complaints about car insurance. >> a lot. consumer investigator chris chmura shows us why we should be wary of some car experience ads. >> you probably have seen the car insurance companies ads for accident forgiveness, where they don't raise your rates even if you're at fault for a crash. but here's the thing, accident forgiveness is illegal in california, a 1988 law for business because people with accident forgiveness pay higher rates than people who don't have it. the state said no.

alameda. take a live look, firefighters wrapping things up it looks like, may have pretty good control over what's going on there, near buena vista avenue and eighth street. the fire started a little before 3:00 this morning and now we learned three people suffered burns and smoke inhalation. two of the victims had to be rescued and both are in critical condition. they are still working to find out the cause of that fire. >> hopefully they're okay soon. also new overnight at least one person died in a crash and three children ended up in the hospital after an overnight accident in antioch. this happened a little before midnight when a car rolled over on highway 4 near the laurel road off-ramp. the chp tells us two more adults were also transported to the hospital. the crash closed all eastbound lanes for more than an hour. developing this morning, authorities so far not revealing many details about a body found last night at the hills near tilden park.

it was found about a quarter mile from the children's steam train ride. the cause of the death unknown but oakland police have a homicide unit working that case right now. in a matter of hours, san francisco's mta starts a major redesign, meant to move those riders much faster through one of the city's busiest corridors. >> >> eventually but there will be pain in the process for riders. cierra johnson is live for us, it always gets worse before it gets better. >> reporter: good morning, that's a good way to put it. this is the second phase of the 16th street improvement project and it will really build on the first phase of the project that worked to make improvements in the area. if you want to look at your screen, this is the stretch of roadway where this improvement will take place. it will ultimately add bus only lanes between church street and potrera avenue. this will improve travel time of the 22 work for the 18,000 daily

riders by nearly 25%. this project will also improve safety on 16th street for people walking or biking and driving, and also be some necessary work that we don't really see aboveground like the upgrades to the sewer infrastructure. we had a chance to speak with some folks who take this line and also work along this ride and they tell us that they imagine the construction may cause some backups but this project is crucial to improving transit times on this route. >> every time i'm on the 22, it's like completely full and so it's important to a lot of people getting up and down this street and getting everyone there faster would be great. >> so it's going to cause a lot of traffic in the area and there's already a lot of traffic as it is with the stadium and, yeah. hopefully like it brings less traffic in the area, but meanwhile, i think it's just going to be super backed up around here. >> reporter: so the big question right now just how long will

this project take? sf mta estimates it will be completed by summer of 2023, this is obviously the start of 2022, so we have a little bit of time to go, a little bit of congestion will take place in that area before we get completed with the project, but some big changes are on the horizon. we're live in san francisco, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> and what a bummer, they couldn't do it while we were all working from home staying at home and off the streets. thanks, cierra. >> 6:35 right now. day care workers in the bay area many are taking part today in a national day of action. it's called a day without child care. now in some cases, workers will walk off the job providing at least 27 states, providers there they are set to be taking part in this. at 10:00, east bay child care providers will lead an event outside of the children's fairyland in downtown oakland. warriors can take a commanding leap tonight, this is in their second round playoff series against memphis. >> i see you wearing your golden

state gold. the dubs may have a distinct advantage, though, the grizzlies may be without their best player, and his injuries adding new fuel to the already fiery series. laura garcia joins us now, laura, the warriors insist there was nothing intentional about what happened. >> yes, exactly. kris and marcus, ja morant is who we're talking about here, he's listed as douseful after hurting his knee on saturday night during the game, game three. this morning there are questions on when morant went down, when he got hurt. he left the game in the fourth quarter, after jordan poole grabbed his knee, as he was going for the ball. here's coach steve kerr on the controversy. >> i watched the play. there's nothing to comment. there's nothing to talk about. they're playing basketball. so you know, we won.

we're up 2-1 and getting ready for game four, so i don't worry about any of the other stuff. >> in the meantime, there's a loss that steve kerr is about to experience and this is not on the court. his top assistant the sacramento kings are hiring mike brown as their next head coach, according to multiple reports here, so brown has spent six seasons as the warriors lead assistant coach and understandable he wants to move on, gets to be the head coach for the sacramento kings, so let's see how we do tonight. game four tonight at the chase center, with the warriors leading 2-1 games in this seven-game series. tip-off right about 7:00 p.m. if they win tonight, marcus, you got wear the gold tie again. >> i have lots of gold ties ready to go. >> no, it has to be that one. >> okay. >> it's superstition. >> okay. >> don't spill anything on it today. >> i just got it out of the

cleaners but i did spill a -- about a year ago. >> you're good. >> thanks, laura. all right, let's take a look this morning at highway 80 in the sierra at kingvale, late season snow blanketing the area and boy it started coming down yesterday. here's what it looked like along interstate 80, more like the middle of january than the middle of may. the snow did catch a lot of people off guard. the chp is still requiring chains. that guy needs a jacket. [ laughter ] forget the chains, he needs a coat. chain requirement is for interstate 80 -- wow. highway 50. oh my goodness. kari tracking the forecast this morning. it felt chilly here in the bay area, not that cold, though. >> not that cold and at the same time we're not complaining either, because it was great to see the snow coming down. >> nah. >> and still slippery if you're going to the sierra, where

there's chain controls still up. we are seeing some very wintry type weather just to our north, and also a chance of spotty showers here but going into the next couple of days, another two to six inches of snow possible for the sierra. we know that the snowpack has been very low, so with this coming so late in the season, we welcome it, and as we look at how much rain we could see, it's going to be spotty for today and tomorrow. just a heads up there could be some quickly changing weather headed our way. mike, you're keeping an eye on the bay bridge. >> i-80, we showed the i-80, that was the chain control going on actively at kingvale. here we have the metering lights controlling the traffic flow, still under 20 miles per hour, across the span at present. we predict that every day pretty much. over here tonight we have the unusual occurrence oracle park with the giants game tonight at 6:45 and the warriors play as well, their playoff game tonight at 7:00 so you will see a meshing of the crowds, in a

similar area of the city and across the bay we have a full closure of westbound 80 at gilman, off and back on at the off-ramp that goes from 11:00 p.m. tonight until 4:00 a.m., should be cleared before the morning commute which is fine now. back to you. >> thanks, mike. we are counting down to the june primary, next on "today in the bay," mail-in ballots are starting to go out and now we're hearing from candidates running for santa clara county sheriff. what you need to know, before you cast your vote. and as far as who you vote for in the primary for congress, that's allchanging, because the districts are changing. we'll go over it coming up. holy cow, another terrible day on the stock market. >> you know what? never too late to go back to college, even as a successful actor. yes, anthony anderson says slow and steady was the best way to go for him. going to have much more on that and who he could be graduating with, coming up right here on "today in the bay."

as sheriff i will initiate reform while keeping our communities safe from crime and violence. i will also implement an independent review of all law enforcement practices. >> i'm the son to the assistant chief of corrections and all the divisions and oversight and executive manager in between. i've called out corruption at the highest level for the last 12 years and i am ready to make the changes that need to be made. the people that trust me most are the people that endorsed me at 97% of the working force. help me to help santa clara county and get us back where it belongs. >> i have over 36 years of experience ranging from a deputy sheriff to chief of police. my paradigm on police something not shaped through the lens of just one organization. as the chief of police i have advocated for greater transparency and accountability and addressed mental health issues impacting our communities and i have a proven record for reducing crime. >> safety, moral judgment and

upholding the constitutional principles are the reasons i seek your vote as your county sheriff for santa clara. i am ahn colton, a wife, a mother and entrepreneur and i believe it is time for a change in our leadership. >> all right, you may see a startling difference as you vote for your congressional candidate as well. you might be voting at a different district. >> california has redrawn its mapping for voting. scott mcgrew that means nbc bay area viewers who are represented by one member of congress may now have an entirely different member of congress this time around. >> entirely different. no matter what they do, don't or don't vote. you didn't move, the house didn't move, lines around you are moving. voting districts are redrawn every ten years. now in some states, there's this just vicious gerrymandering as the two different parties vie for power, but that doesn't happen in california where voting districts are drawn by an independent commission.

this year, california loses a member of congress. we'll have 52 instead of 53. so all of these lines have got to change. each congressional district is supposed to have the same number of people in it and that's why san francisco's district is really small. it's got a lot of people in it. this is nancy pelosi's district. now look at how enormous the land is because there's less dense concentration of people so it's got a much bigger congressional district. the borders on all of these moved in some cases by a lot. take a look at the south bay, and into morgan hill. look at how much more area congresswoman zoe lofgren picks up with a new 18th district, at the cost of congressman jimmy panetta. who loses a lot of his area. some people for years were represented by panetta will see lofgren and her challengers on the primary ballot instead.

look at the peninsula, this is the old map, jackie speier and anna eshou. the new map eshou picks up all kinds of territory. speier is retiring. you will not see her name on the new ballot. those are just a few examples of what's happening all over. bottom line, if you vote, you may see different names on the ballot than you were expecting and for many of us, no matter who wins the primary in june and the general in november, will have a new congressperson, either tne of his or her challengers. so check your voter's guide. there's also a helpful website to help you visualize all of this, see what i show you again at fivethirtyeight.com, and i'll also have it on twitter as well as nbcbayarea.com where you find a wealth of information in the coming days including the sheriff's candidates you saw, all of the candidates running for san jose mayor, their short
