being considered. plus, creating healthy sleeping habits. one doctor explains the steps you can take to help your kids get back into their nighttime routine. this is "today in the bay," streaming live on roku, amazon fire, apple tv, and online. >> how many times have i said go to bed? you need to go to bed. >> and the year just started. >> because i gotta go to bed. at least it's friday. >> amen to that. all right, it is a friday morning for us, thanks so much for allowing us to be a part of your morning. i'm marcus washington. >> and i'm laura garcia. we'll check in with mike in a little bit, with the friday morning commute. the friday forecast with kari. >> it's going to be a great weekend and cooler, too, we're on that trend as we get a live look in dublin this morning, heading out to mostly clear conditions here but then as you're heading out of antioch temperatures low 60s and a few clouds to start out for the day. as we go into late morning, into the afternoon, we head into the low 70s and then upper 70s, you can see the trend here.

it's still going to be very warm as we go into later today for the interior east bay, with concord hitting 90 degrees. we have some upper 80s expected for morgan hill, while san jose will reach 84 degrees and some low 80s for much of the north bay. san francisco stays in the 60s. we'll get a look ahead to the weekend forecast. mike, how is it looking in the north bay? >> car e auto, the speed sensors look fine. there is a crash reported behind the shield, sorry, folks, that's what happened there. we're looking at westbound 80 your commute direction coming toward the cor delia junction out of fairfield around green valley road for those who can use that as a reference point, that's what's going on. that may slow folks down but way farther north from the bridges so the bridges carquinez and benicia fine. the earlier crash cleared, everything looks fine on the live camera. no delays all the way on either side of the bay. back to you. >> let's hope it stays that way. happening today, a rally against a controversial plan in

foster city to kill 100 geese. >> "today in the bay's" ginger conejero saab is live in foster city this morning with the latest on the strongly-debated issue. ginger, has anything been decided here yet? >> good morning, laura and marcus. nothing concrete yet, but it's been an issue in the city for a while. a continuing geese feces problem that foster city says is posing a health risk to humans. the canada geese population has doubled to more than 300 in recent years. the lethal removal would affect 100 of the geese, but protesters say that number is still too high. this is video from the last protest on this issue back in july where people from both sides of the debate had much to say. one man says the problem has gotten so bad, the birds are filthy and human safety should also be considered. but many say lethally removing the birds is inhumane, including san mateo county supervisor david canepa who is leading the protest today. in a recent tweet he said "i

disagree with foster's city plan to get rid of its goose population. it's inhumane and does not solve any problem. the geese are a country-wide concern and i stand against any plan to kill them." in a video message posted from foster city councilmember sanjay gahani yesterday says culling the geese is only one solution the council is entertaining. >> be assured, we are not considering eradication nor extermination. but the lethal alternative is part of a multifaceted plan to control the canada goose population which has doubled in foster city over recent years and is projected to double again over the next few years. >> reporter: he continues on to say that the city is exploring other options, including robot technology and landscape modifications to make foster city less attractive to the geese. in the meantime, he urges the public to stay away from the

birds, throw or recycle the trash away in the parks and if you have any suggestions, to email geese@fostercity.org. they're open to more suggestions. guys, back to you. >> hopefully they find another suggestion to keep all of the geese alive but we'll see. all right, ginger, thank you. 5:04 right now. in just a few hours, we're going to get a look at a redacted version of the affidavit used to adjust the fbi search of former president trump's home. the trump legal team is also being ordered to provide more details in their request for an independent special master to review the evidence it seized and determine if anything could be returned to the former president. "today in the bay's" alice barr is live in washington with more on what is expected. a lot going on, alice. >> laura, this is going to be a busy day, certainly in this very closely-watched investigation, and that probable cause affidavit that you mentioned, it's getting so much attention precisely because it lays out

this justification, the reasons why the justice department ordered the fbi search of the former president's home and it contains evidence, some of what the judge saw to sign off on the search warrant, evidence going into the investigation of how the former president handled classified documents. new details set to emerge this morning about the unprecedented search of former president trump's mar-a-lago estate. a federal judge ordering the release by noon today of a redacted copy of the affidavit used to authorize the search that led to fbi agents seizing 11 sets of classified documents. >> these are serious, serious national securityish eyes that have to be examined. >> reporter: the former president and allies demanded the whole affidavit be made public. >> so people can know whether there's a serious allegation or this is more manufactured. >> reporter: the judge agreed with the justice department that some information should be blacked out, because it could identify witnesses and law

enforcement and reveal strategy as well as sources and methods. still, there will be new information released. the judge describing the redactions as narrowly tailored. former president trump lashing out on his social media calling the investigation into his handling of sensitive documents politically motivated. president biden adamant he had no prior knowledge about the search. at a fund-raiser overnight he slammed maga republicans as a threat to democracy. >> they refuse to accept the will of the people. >> reporter: the trump legal team facing another deadline to better explain why they want a third party known as a special master to review evidence seized from mar-a-lago and determine if anything should be returned. >> to lend some neutrality to the process, i think it makes a bit of sense. >> reporter: the trump appointed judge reviewing that request questioning key elements of its legal basis.

and the judge in that special master case questioned why trump attorneys came to her instead of the judge who signed off on the search warrant, and she's asking the trump legal team to explain exactly what action the former president is seeking. laura, back to you. >> a lot of details there, thanks for covering it, alice. as students head back to school, their sleeping schedule will likely change. getting enough sleep so important, because studies show that it can reduce anxiety and boost school performance. joining us now is dr. rebecca jackson, the vice president of programs and outcome for brain balance. i love that name, brain balance. we all need a little bit of that in our lives. thank you so much, dr. jackson. let's get right to it. so let's talk about that. how do we know a kid is getting enough sleep, and how much sleep should a child get? >> you know, how much sleep is going to depend on their age and the rule of thumb is sort of more is better. for our teens, eight to ten

hours is great, for kids younger elementary age 9 to 12 is ideal. gauging their mood and behaviors is a good indicator. none of us function well when we're tired. we have a harder time paying attention, making decisions and managing our frustrations and upsets. so if you see those behaviors start to peak, i would look at sleep as a first place to start. >> i know that we've seen the studies getting enough sleep does help performance for those students but what if a child is anxious about school or something else in their life and they're not able to get to sleep to get those seven, eight, nine hours of sleep they may need. what are some tips they could do to try to help them go to sleep? >> looking to technology before bedtime is a great place to start if the child has a hard time falling asleep. spending time on a device or game before bedtime can signal to the brain it's time to be awake, not time to go to sleep. so in the hour leading up to

bedtime, having it be a family goal of not engaging in technology can help to start to create that signal to the brain that it's time to go to sleep. and keeping a consistent bedtime routine. that's part of a healthy sleep hygiene process is being consistent with the time you go to bed and the time you wake up. also, being mindful about what you're consuming in hours before bedtime. caffeine will peak about an hour after you consumed it, and it can take up to six hours to clear your system, so it's not still impacting you. and sugar, having those sweet snacks as a treat after dinner or before bedtime can also impact your blood sugars that can disrupt falling asleep and staying asleep once you fall asleep. >> dr. jackson and i talked about a lot. even if you're think being can i take naps, are those good. listen to what she had to say. go to our website, nbcbayarea.com, and go the the streaming app and find the interview for free on roku, amazon fire, apple tv, and

online and find the story under our must-see play list there. >> let's see if today is going to be a good day weather wise to sneak in a nap. if it's cooler, it's nice and warm under the covers. kari is tracking that friday forecast. >> i think we're wishing we were still back in bed. >> i think so. that's whey want. >> i was thinking that. >> we do have a blanket of low clouds and fog over san francisco and it is causing some low visibility over the south county. right now, morgan hill visibility down to a half of a mile. it gets worse as you head farther south. just be wary of that, as you're heading off for your drive this morning. as far as our temperatures for today, we'll reach up to 83 degrees in santa rosa. 84 in martinez and up to 91 today in livermore, while oakland is in the low 70s. palo alto reaching 82 degrees and half moon bay a cool 60 degrees. we'll talk about a cooler weekend ahead. mike has a look at where we can find some lower gas prices. >> we found some cheaper places where you can fill up getting ready for your weekend, maybe you'll drive around road trips

locally. pleasanton fill up at the safeway along vernal avenue for $4.79 a gallon. daly city along the we lans ofiness in la, valero on mission street $4.95 and eeking just under the arco in pittsburg without an h on west leland road, gas is $4.99. look at the roadway, we have the sensors for a friday light as well, smooth flow of traffic and we expect lighter and later commute to kick in so out of the altamont pass over on the right, no problems for 580, just starting to slow down as you get through the altamont pass and in the south county we have no slowing through san martin but the bottom, you see that orangish? the road weather index registers fog but we don't hear about any problems for drivers. >> hope it stays that way. thanks, mike. fighting for better wages and rights. the bay area outdoor sporting goods store where workers are unionizing and the reason they say it was a necessary step. you're probably not taking

"it is also a common practice" from the patent filing "especially as a reflection of increasing popularity of the game of basketball in recent years for the user of a wastebasket to pretend that it is a basketball net and throw waste material toward it with a looping trajectory simulating the flight of a basketball." you got to talk fancy when filing for patents. two points. >> especially in the gym. sorry. >> don't be sorry. it's cool. >> trapper keeper, take me back. >> now look at the history of a peachy folder. we'll talk about it. >> i don't know. new for you this morning, the workers at a popular outdoor store rei have voted to unionize. workers say the store on san pablo avenue voted to make that move. this is the second rei store in

south bay as well with cupertino reaching 87 degrees. also 87 in gilroy. for the east bay you're up to 90 in danville and martinez reaching 84 degrees. some temperatures will be cooler than what we had yesterday but we're back to the same temperatures for many of our microclimates today. san mateo reaching 75, and some upper 60s in downtown san francisco. 82 in novato and 98 in ukiah this afternoon. if you're looking for something to do this weekend, how about starting it off this evening in redwood city at music on the square. it's going to be a very nice evening, temperatures in the upper 60s and low 70s to start. it will be cooling off quickly so bring the jacket and that will be the case for whatever you have planned to do for those evening hours. as we take a look at our inland temperatures, we're up to 90 today in some of the hottest spots in the east bay, like concord, as well as in parts of the north bay, but then going into the weekend, we may only be reaching into the low 80s for highs. it will be breezy, those clouds

may hold on a little bit longer throughout the morning, but then we will start to warm up again early next week. if you'll be out in the city in san francisco for the weekend, keep that jacket handy. we only reach into the mid-60s with breezy winds throughout the next couple of days. mike, you're looking at the changes in berkeley. >> check this out. come on, folks. look at that, they're all coming down the east shore freeway. all the lanes are filled in. this is gradually built over the last 20, 25 minutes here and now we have reason for perhaps some brake tap. the sensors still don't show any slowing here, but they have shown up over highway 37 and that's right on schedule for any monday through thursday, so friday a little bit lighter, just a tad. over here highway 4, let's check no slowing here coming into concord, pittsburg, bay point. that may hold off later and may last a shorter period of time in the morning, fridays tend to see that. we've had more volume of traffic through oakland yesterday, all week really. right now there's a crash

ready to go home last year and just about all of them were adopted. we're definitely trying to do the same thing again this year, but we've prepared even more animals for adoption. we probably have about 100 animals in the shelter right now, and this year just feels more urgent and it's because all of the shelters are overcrowded. >> snap the qr code on your screen to learn more about all of our clear the shelters hours and locations. i'll be back tonight at 5:00 and 6:00 live from humane society silicon valley to meet more four-legged friends who are ready to join your family. see you then. >> marcus and i will be at berkeley tomorrow morning 7:00 a.m., watch it, and come out at 10:00 a.m. coming up next, the top stories we're following today including a crackdown on freeway shootings. the two arrests and technology that could catch future suspects sooner.

minutes and mike, you are tracking a possible problem in oakland? >> i first reported something going on maybe some debris around 35th going away from the maze, in the direction of the arrow but now there's another report, it is perhaps scattered along the roadway. multiple objects are reported east 580 from 35th over to basically the merge with the warren freeway. now your commute is the opposite direction. we don't see slowing in either direction. we'll keep track of what the chp updates on that. the easy, light drive for friday commute is great, extends through contra costa county down into the south bay, as kari talked about, maybe some fog creeping in to south county. back to you. >> thank you, mike. 5:32 right now. developing now, a south bay community is upset and unnerved other flavors targeting lgbtq people plus others ahead of this weekend's pride celebration. >> "today in the bay's" kris sanchez is joining us now from what i'm understanding on the flyers is message of intolerance

speculation who's behind them. some people say they suspect the same group who has been harassing business owners and elected leaders before out in public but also at council meetings. both in this way and at town meetings is where some of that harassment happened. at this point we don't know if police will take any action. kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> interesting to follow, thank you, kris. developing for you this morning, a big break that we want to tell you about in two recent bay area freeway shootings. the first one happened in june. the other in july. in the june shooting, a bullet shattered the front windshield of a car carrying an east bay couple on interstate 580 near grant avenue. the other on interstate 680 near san ramon. no one was seriously injured but chp isn't saying how investigators obtained the evidence. one hurdle a councilmember believes an expanding network of cameras that can help investigators.

>> so the local cities have camera networks. the important part is to have that camera network working on the freeway so we all are working together on this. >> chp says a 24-year-old from san leandro is in custody for one of those shootings. a 29-year-old from pleasanton in s in custody for the other shooting. the cases are not believed to be connected. new developments from b.a.r.t. which appears to be running ahead of schedule when it comes to a long-term infrastructure repair plan. b.a.r.t. says 38% of its planned workforce is now -- work rahert completed, set in motion by a voter approved bond measure in 2016, measure rr. b.a.r.t. started work the following year. it includes all the renovations being done on its aging rail and track system. let's take a live look in san jose this morning, as we get started. and hey, if you make weekend

the possibility of parole. in june of 2020 prosecutors say he ambushed the sheriffs deputies responding to a report of a van containing firearms and bomb-making materials. gutweiler was killed and several other officials wounded. he was alsoen convicted in the 2020 killing of a federal security officer in oakland. the gloves are off and president biden using harsh words to describe the state of the republican party. >> scott mcgrew joins us now. this is just what some democrats wanted. >> some, not all, right, but yeah, the idea this is the opposite of michelle obama said about when they go low, we go high. that many democrats say did not work. now we don't have tape of this next thing because our tv cameras weren't there but according to the pool reporter at a fund-raiser in maryland, biden said the philosophy underpinning maga was semifascist. we would then go on to a rally where he fired up the crowd.

>> maga republicans have awakened the powerful force in america, the women of this nation, the court and the phrase that women have a right to vote and change this, well guess what? maga republicans don't have a clue about the power of women. let me tell you something. they are about to find out. >> today is women's equality day. president biden will meet with state and local officials at the white house to mark the passage of the 19th amendment, giving women the vote. we were talking yesterday about how some well-known people were criticizing student loan forgiveness on social media, only to have their followers point out those same people had their own loans forgiven. now the white house is weighing in with what kids would call this u, marjorie taylor greene complained it was unfair for some students to have $10,000 in loans forgiven. the white house then tweeting out greene took a ppp loan worth

$183,000 and it was forgiven. the former baseball great curt schilling tweeted out those students were "lazy, unaccountable, uneducated children being covered by hard-working debt-paying americans." now the white house didn't point it out but many twitter users did that schilling founded a video game company that took a $75 million loan from the state of rhode island, only to default on it. the lawsuit filed later ended with a settlement that was less than the total. of course we're waiting on the release of that fbi affidavit in florida regarding the probable cause and suspicions that crimes were committed at mar-a-lago. the judge in the case received a redacted copy from the government, showing what the government would like to keep out, and then will decide before 9:00 a.m. our time whether to release that, the redacted part or seal it entirely. we'll be talking about that on social media. on twitter, follow

me @scottmcgrew. >> scott, thank you. governor newsom is taking things up a notch, this is in his bipartisan -- bicoastal battle with florida conservatives and governor ron desantis. you remember the ads newsom ran in florida earlier this summer calling out florida's harsh abortion law, book banning and so-called don't say gay law. in a new post, he tweets "time to make ron desantis a one-time governor" pledging $100,000 to democrat charlie crist. crist is running against desantis this fall and some political insiders believe newsom and esantis may be positioning themselves for a presidential run in 2024. this weekend, storm troopers, superheroes and we suspect a jedaley will converge in the south bay for the silicon. >> reporter: bob redell is outside the convention center.
