that's going to be the whole point, they are pushing them to sell it so they can own it and have control of the data. >> now at 5:00, the debate over banning tiktok takes center stage in congress. we talk with one cyber security expert that breaks down what kind of national security threat the app really poses. what happens if the chinese banned owners do not sell their stake? mike inouye has his eye on traffic breaking it down ahead. it's 5:00 on your thursday morning. i am laura garcia.

>> i am marcus washington. it felt warm as we were driving into work this morning, and calm conditions out there with 50 degrees. 42 for you over in los gatos. i want to do a wrap around, and martinez, 48 degrees and we take a dip as we go into 7:00, 8:00, so make sure you send the kids to school with a nice jacket. we are looking at the mid-50s for our daytime highs. storm ranger saying finally the reak i have been needing after working hard all weekend long. we are tracking sprinkles off the coast the activity pushed through into the central valley. i will track spotty showers coming up in a little bit. first, mike, a crash has

happened? >> yeah, as we look towards the traffic flow, no problems crossing the bay. i told you we saw the crash over in oakland, and now you see the slowing here. the crash itself reported near beaumont, and east bay 580, chp called for a traffic break heading towards this crash. there could be a shift in location -- actually, it just changed in our traffic input. we will get you this note. it's away from 980 and 24. i would strongly suggest using somebody 880 instead of the east bay 580 getting away from the bay bridge toll plaza. back to you. >> thank you very much. breaking news we are covering for you in the south bay, a deadly shooting overnight ended in a violent standoff.

this is close to the minute chester mystery house. police say the man who was shot was armed with a machete and held three people hostage, including two children. the three captives were all found safe. today in the bay's kris sanchez will have a live update coming up in the next half hour. in a matter of hours new york city grand jury considering charges against former president donald trump plan to reconvene. today in the bay is live in washington tracking the latest developments. i know one thing a lot are thinking about, the jury was told to stay home yesterday? >> yeah, it's not clear on why they were told to stay home. it's important to remember that if there is ultimately an indictment in this case, it's not likely that the former

president trump would appear in manhattan to face charges until next week at the earliest. this is over the allegations hush-money back in 2016. trump called alvin bragg a rogue prosecutor having a hard time making a case. the former president continues to talk to friends and advisers about his possible arrest that he thought would take place tuesday, and he has mused openly about whether or not he should smile for the assembled media. >> a perp walk is not going to

happen, and you will not see him in handcuffs unless he brings his own. >> trump's legal troubles continues in another investigation. a judge ruled the former president committed a crime through his attorneys when it comes to the probe surrounding classified documents found at his mar-a-lago state. it appears he lost an appeal of that ruling and that will force one of his lawyers to testify to a grand jury in the criminal probe. >> a lot to considerand think about here. i know a lot of people are watching. chris pallone in washington, thank you. this morning we are digging deeper into a potential move by the u.s. to ban tiktok. today the ceo is expected to get grilled on capitol hill in a

hearing. the white house last week threatened to ban tiktok in the u.s. if the chinese do not sell their stake. i want to start out with that hearing on capitol hill today. what questions do you think tiktok ceo is expected to face? i would imagine consumer privacy and data security? >> absolutely. the biggest question will be how far can the chinese government or chinese authority have access to the data of the u.s. user? that will be the biggest thing because it's national security at this level. >> it's interesting to think how cavalier businesses are and users are as well. do you think they don't feel any sort of threat? i mean, 150 million users. >> that's the biggest point. the key thing is if you know what kind of information they are collecting you would be

worried about that. it's from the location of the device, and the phone company you are using for that device, and even the diagnostic of your device and your files and contacts and other things. this information will give a huge advantage for the chinese government, you know, getting this information and influencing the move of the society by pushing some kind of propaganda. >> if tiktok is purchased by an american company, what is saying it will stop that data from really getting in the wrong hands? >> the key thing, once it belongs to the u.s. entity, any kind of a structure for the network and the software for getting into the data and analyzing the data will be rechecked and so there will be no backdoor, there will be no privileges for anybody other

than in the united states or anybody authorized to access that. that will be the whole point about it. they are pushing them to sell it so they can own it, the u.s. entity, a u.s. organization, so they can have control of the data. >> professor and i spoke so much about this topic, and it was really a fascinating conversation. can you watch the entire interview at nbcbayarea.com, just search tiktok. happening today a man accused in the murder of 27-year-old castro. investigators say he killed her in a sword last september with her children nearby. actually, she had a young daughter. also today, a street racing

crash that killed a peninsula mother and father is due in court this morning. the car slammed into the couple and their two 7-year-old daughters that survived that crash. a san josé police sergeant in critical condition this morning after a tree smashed into his unmarked car during tuesday's storm. he's a 16-year veteran of the force. the tree left him trapped until first responders could free him. elsewhere in the city, two people died from falling trees. one in the tenderloin and another near golden gate park where a bystander was left shaken up by what she saw. >> i show them, the police officer car here and we walked by and we show the paramedic people and doing cpr.

>> the falling trees in tuesday's storm blamed for now five deaths across the bay area. happening for you now this morning, tri-valley drivers are being told to prepare for delays this morning on east bay 580. chp closed two lanes yesterday and will close another one today from now until 1:30 this afternoon. caltrans will be closing lanes to make the repairs to that cracked road that popped up monday after the retaining wall collapsed. for a closer look at the closure, let's bring in mike inouye. how do drivers need to get around this? >> they can't. that's the problem, marcus. they have to go over the bridge which is damaged by that slide you saw. the problem is they will have to go this direction right here. this is where the morning commute comes in and that's why they are using the morning to close the additional lane, and they will go over the area slower, and in the afternoon it will build up. that's why they are trying to clear it by 1:30, because that's when the afternoon and evening

commute kicks in. >> prepare for extra time? >> absolutely. out of tracy, out of livermore, out of sunol and the interchange, that would be the direction. for the morning, we are looking at the opposite direction, and that's moving fine out of the altamont pass. east bay, we do have slowing but the good news, the traffic break and the full blockage has cleared to two lanes now, and that's opposite your main commute. you are down two lanes over at beaumont and 14th, but that crash has moved out of two lanes, two lanes are now open. we are looking towards the bay bridge, and the drive there will be smooth. everything moving nice there. i have green sensors but not the road weather index -- yesterday that meant rain, but not today. >> yeah, it's a nice break from the rain today. let's go mid bay right now, san mateo commute.

cloudy this morning as we are waking up in the upper 40s. we will mix out to sun and clouds this afternoon in the mid-50s. along the coast, 55 for you. just a little warmer as you make your way inland into martinez, 69. we will have a slight chance of rain as we go into the evening today, but the weekend looks dry, a little cold. looking ahead, though, we are looking at more rain chances ahead, and spring definitely continuing that weather-like pattern. i will track the time of the storm coming up in a few minutes. >> thank you, cinthia. ahead on "today in the bay," a new contest that may have you brushing up on your finish. >> okay. plus, we will continue our coverage on tiktok, the latates from wawashington on ththe poss ban. plus --

> you know,, let's sit down watatch tv. afteter the brbreak, we h have prpreview of tonigight's n new e ofof "lalaw & orderer." don't w want to miss that comin up. we'll be right back.

good morning. it's 5:15 on this thursday. let's go to the north bay.

novato, currently at 48 degrees just seeing clouds passing through right now. we will go into the mid-50s by this afternoon with a slight chance of spotty showers as we move through the day. i will track that for you coming up in the full forecast. and then the cones from the golden gate bridge, and the north side should have full access, and coming towards us the headlights, light traffic. we're still watching the east bay and that crash. we will talk about what is going on on 580 in oakland, coming up. a big tiktok hearing coming up, but let's talk with the fed and banking. stocks took a big hit when janet yellen walked back comments that the fed would back deposits over $250,000.

powell did what we were saying yesterday, he said the banks are lending less. this is a good prediction. it's going to get harder to get a loan. the federal reserve also said it will do its own internal investigation into the handling of silicon valley bank, not what went wrong but how come the fed had not figured it out faster that things were going wrong at silicon valley bank. and the ceo of tiktok will testify on capitol hill, and there are concerns bytedance might pass on personal information gathered from the app to the chinese government. there are laws in china requiring chinese companies to comply with the government's data request. now, all apps try to track you. we have gone on for years about accusations against facebook, right? you know your apple watch tracks

you. you want it to, because it keeps telling you about your steps. one question to be answered today, and it's an important one, are we going to ban all chinese-made apps. >> the truth is tiktok is widely used by the american public, especially young folks, the next generation so it's taking away a platform people have small businesses on and people use to promote their personal brands, and it's a good way to communicate and activate folks and i think a ban would be a mistake. hi, everyone, i am the ceo of tiktok. i am here in washington, d.c. today and i have some news and updates to share with everyone here. >> you probably saw this on tiktok.

the ceo of tiktok went on tiktok and rally users. >> he's not a bad guy. he's not even chinese. he met his wife in maryland and was a facebook intern. he replaced an american ceo. the relationship with china is concerning, but the man testifying today will get tough questions, but my impression is he's doing the best he can. >> i think he looks ready, too. >> thank you. trending this morning, the happiest country in the world is asking you to come visit, and you can do it on their dime. finland is offering free trips to the country for a master class of happiness. it will teach about nature and well-being. the trip takes place june 12th through the 15th. sounds fun.

>> wow. tonight we have something else, not a class but you can catch a new episode of "law & order" here on nbc bay area. i got a chance to chat with district attorney jack mccoy. >> well, the show that is coming up is about a journalist who is murdered in his home, and that's the beginning. i don't want to tell you anymore. >> we're going to stop him right there, because i reminded him as i was talking to him, hey, you are talking to a journalist. he said you just have to watch it. that's what is of interest for us here today on "today in the bay." >> yeah, and they are focusing on the murder, though. >> yeah, all of us are, like, what? >> we are going to watch. >> yeah, "law & order."

>> yeah, "law & order," and weather. >> weather and rain. let's talk about what we can expect as we go into thursday. right now out there we are looking at mid to upper 40s and 50s for you. we have 40 in pacifica. 50 in oakland, and 50 for you in tohe peninsula now, palo alto currently at 50 degrees. it will mix out nicely into clouds and sun this afternoon, if you want to take the lunch outside. if you do take the lunch outside, make sure to bring a windbreaker. it will range 15 to 25-mile-per-hour winds by 2:003:00, and then in the afternoon, still breezy. if you have lunch plans outside or cleaning up from the storm, just make sure and wear another layer. no rain in the way of getting into your thursday plans. let's take it hour by hour.

i wanted to show there's a chance of spotty rain in the afternoon, mostly appeared the north bay, and then pushing through around oakland and fremont and san josé this evening, so just something to keep note of. look at this. friday looks clear and ready to go in store for the weekend. we will see not only today, tomorrow, but saturday and sunday look great for you. if you have weekend plans, we are already tracking this next storm coming from the pacific, a little bit -- not the impacts from an atmospheric river, per se, but we will see gusty winds and we are tracking that because looks like tuesday's morning commute will look nasty once again. details still to be fine tuned,

but i will leave you with the 7-day forecast. we are going to take a dip in the temperatures, so prepare for chilly mourns ahead. >> mike? over here the, the bay bridge, we did have results of a disabled vehicle, and our buddy in the operation center scanning with the camera didn't see any problems. this is a little slowing approaching the toll plaza and the incline. this is a pretty typical pattern getting to the bay bridge and across your commute westbound. remember, we are down two lanes as you approach beaumont. the earlier crash cleared from half the freeway, but now slowing from 980 to about 14th. golf lynx road, that's the commute direction out of castro valley and heading towards the

bay bridge. the rest of the bay shows a typical expected pattern. back to you. >> thank you, mike. here's the question, the warriors may have an answer for you on the beef involving one of the sport's best known owners leaving the dubs big win up in the air. you're watching "today in the bay."

so the warriors' latest game is possibly there may still be a game in the game to be played in the commissioner's office. let's just say dallas owner, mark cuban, promising to file a protest arguing the referees allowed the warriors to inbound a ball on a position the mavs believed was there. it was the worst call ever. yeah, the warriors did win, won by two. sofar the league is not commenting on this. 5:26 right now. coming up next, the stories we are following for you today, including the cities still sitting in the dark. the questions customers are asking this morning along wi &e. we're in san josé where a

temperatures right now pretty comfortable, i would say. 50 in oakland. 46 for you right now in gilroy. maybe you are headed to work in the peninsula, and let's go to redwood city. temperatures will take a dip as we go into 7:00, 8:00. we will warm up in the mid-50s this afternoon, with a spotty chance of rain but we will track that for you in the full weekend outlook. for now, mike, you are talking about a crash on the bay bridge or something going on? >> we see the flashing lights. good eye there, and we look at a build in the commute. the flashing lights, cinthia, that's because i just heard about a tire they reported to that side of the approach of the toll plaza. they could be blocking that lane for folks to clear the tire. the speed sensors don't show any

major slowing. we're watching that critical spot on the bay bridge showing a critical build right now. and then only two lanes are open and two lanes closed east bay getting away from the bay bridge. grand avenue, the new location. good news out of castro valley heading up towards the bay bridge toll plaza. police are still trying to determine why a man took three people captive before being shot by officers. >> today in the bay's kris sanchez is live. what you have been able to learn? >> we know in the last hour or so the big mobile command unit drove away, but the crime scene unit is still here because they are still gathering evidence after that man was shot by police officers and died overnight. this all started as a hostage

situation, as you said, in an apartment. this is southeast of 280 and the expressway where they connect. that man was holding a woman and two children in the apartment, and neighbors heard at least three gunshots. the police confirmed the man was shot at least once by officers. he was taken to the hospital and then just after 1:00 this morning, police announced the suspect died at that hospital. san josé police tweeted the woman and children were removed safely so they are physically safe, but they are no doubt traumatized this morning. we suspect there will be an autopsy on the suspect, and we do know in the cases of officer-involved shootings, we often hear from the police chief himself. when that happens, we will bring that to you.

kris sanchez for "today in the bay." >> thank you, kris. meanwhile, scott mcgrew continues to cover donald trump's woes. >> we are still waiting for the announcement from the grand jury in manhattan, but there are four investigations into trump and the one from mar-a-lago and the classified documents is the one causing him the most problems. the judge ruled that the crime fraud exception negates some attorney/client privilege, in other words, trump's attorney could be a witness and requested and the private documents could be turned over to the prosecution. as for the manhattan case, the grand jury has been called back. this is the one trump himself expect to be arrested over.

it's getting big attention because it's the first potential indictment, but it's really not the most serious. some washington republicans, meanwhile, indicating they are willing to investigate the prosecutors investigating trump. jim jordan of ohio sent letters to two manhattan prosecutors who he claims pressured the d.a. in going forward with the case against the former president. everybody has been wrong on their predictions before, but there are three prosecutors, four cases. as we saw wednesday, developments can come from anywhere. the "today" show will continue with that coverage and that starts at 7:00, and, of course, throughout the day. if there are any major developments, nbc bay area will bring that to you. a short time ago pg&e updating us there are now 24,000 outages.

the east bay is still the hardest hit with about 11,000. on the peninsula, it's down to 9,000. meanwhile, people in one oakland neighborhood said they sat in the dark for 24 hours without power and pg&e not even knowing there was a problem. customers on 36th street could not see it on the utilities outage map, and they called nbc bay area asking us to convince the utility the power was out. >> i think i deserve this, this is what i work for. >> yes, you do, peggy. pg&e says the teams are now trying to figure out why the meters of a dozen or so neighbors did not reflect an outage, and they say they can file claims for expenses due to the outage. and then take a look at that.

this happened after a mudslide. this is the only road leading to the state park in novato. it's a stretch near highway 101. the closure is not impacting the freeway. >> shows the power of water. >> right? a lot of it. >> definitely a lot of it. let's take a look in san josé, and how is it looking? >> it's looking pretty good around the bay area. a lot of people have their mind set to going up to tahoe, so let's take a look. 227% of our statewide average, so north, central, and down into the sierra, it looks excellent. overall, just hit or miss weekend depending on where you go. let's go from the mountains to

the coastline. a beautiful weekend out in santa cruz if you want to go and support any local economy that has been battered by the storm, and it's looking good but make sure you bring a jacket because temperatures are in the mid-50s with sun. we have a little trouble but it's trouble for people that expected the span to clear. the metering lights had been activated, and it looks like they cleared that tire on the approach. we are ready for all these folks to approach the bay bridge toll plaza, and then a little slow on the incline here. this is highway 4 where it's just starting to show a build, we expect those coming in your commute direction towards me. east 580, chp issues an alert. there was an oil spill on the ground, and two lanes still remain closed, getting away from 980 and the bay bridge itself

and heading into castro valley. the rest of the bay shows a smooth flow of traffic. look at this. 101 shows slowing at capital expressway, and heading up towards the airport off the interchange. >> thanks, mike. bitter contract dispute leaving hundreds of thousands of schoolchildren high and dry this week. coming up next on "today in the bay," why the conflict of closing campuses may be over, but a larger battle is still raging. i am bob redell. we have puppies, a puppy, because it's national puppy day. need i say more? stay with us. you're watching "today in the bay."

up. officials are searching for a 7-year-old child. this is north of monterey. there was a child left on the beach unattended. he said his brother went swimming with his mother. his mother was found unconscious. the 7-year-old boy has not been found. the search is expected to resume as soon as the sun is out. a san francisco art gallery seen on video spraying somebody with a water hose is due in court for a plea hearing. it sparked anger when it went viral. the business owner apologized explaining the person was loitering.

we cut him loose to find puppies to adopt. bob, looks like you found a friend. i know you are a dog lover. >> reporter: yeah, beats standing in the rain. i have three dogs. we have jackie, and then behind jackie is valerie. tell us about valerie? >> she's super cute. >> reporter: and very friendly. a sweetie pie. >> yes, she is full of life. she has good energy. we peeled her out of bed this morning for the early segment, and she's on it. >> reporter: she's a husky mix, right? >> yeah, we think so. breed is always a guess. from what we can tell, i think she's going to be pretty smart and energetic.

>> reporter: from your point of view here, you are always trying to get dogs adopted. is there anything about this day from your point of view? >> yeah, i think it's great because it's recognized as a national holiday, and people are recognizing shelters have puppies, and you don't have to go and go to breeders and puppy mills, and you can find puppies that are two months old at your local shelter. highlighting national puppy day really puts that out for the public to understand that. >> reporter: is there a misperception about adopting a puppy. we talked about it earlier, and you can do this. >> yeah, can you do it if you have the commitment. that's the commitment with time and energy, too. i think it's really important. everybody always wants a puppy,

because they are adorable. they stay very cute, but they don't always, you know, stay this size. i think it's important when somebody is considering a puppy is what is the lifestyle, right? does this puppy fit into your lifestyle? if you are a couch potato, you have to keep up with somebody who is extremely energetic that needs to get socialized and go through training, and maybe a puppy is not the right fit, but the adult dog that you know the temperament and the energy might be a better fit. >> you can house train them. it's not rocket science. i think you are also touching on this, i rescued a couple adult dogs, yes, and they are great to adopt, too, and i know it's national puppy day, but adult dogs are sometimes overlooked. >> yeah, often they are overlooked. but puppies, for somebody who, again, wants to make sure they have the right training, the

right time commitments and all the right resources and they are committed not only now but two years from now, five years from now, ten, and hopefully they live a long and healthy life if you do the right things, you will have to think about what your life is going to be like in the future and not just in the moment because of the puppy eyes valerie is giving you. >> look at this. >> reporter: valley, do you want to go home? >> if my wife were watching, i would be getting a fourth dog now. i already have two huskies. hello? would you give me that back? >> they always want things they are not supposed to have. >> reporter: i get it. thank you, jackie. we will show you two dobies.

>> i think valerie might be going home? >> yeah, bob said he has four dogs. >> how cute. >> love it. what a great job for today, right? bob, we need to send you out. >> yeah, out in the rain, and he has been doing his fair share of standing out in the rain. but today a break in that, too. >> yeah, tomorrow is the day we adopted -- i think you saw it in the montage of pictures, and we adopted her tomorrow a year ago from milo in point richmond. it is a lot of responsibility, and we looked and thought, oh, she's cute, but it has been a learning process and she's turning two. >> you both survived. >> yeah, just make sure to bundle those pups out there with little coats because it will be

breezy and chances for spotty rain here and there. most of the rain has moved to the central valley and snow in the sierra. just a few light sprinkles moving over the mount hamilton area, down to gilroy and the santa cruz mountains. as far as today, going to be mostly clear. just a chance of spotty showers mixing out to sun and clouds, and maybe giving you a chance to go out and clean up after the storms or take your dogs for a walk. it's going to be dry, but we are taking a dip in the temperatures, and spring feeling like winter. then we will talk about the next storm in the pacific. winds 20 to 25 miles per hour locally. by around 2:00, i see a cell, trace amounts of light rain, nothing like what we have been dealing with over the last couple of days in calistoga,

while the rest of us remain clear. pushing on through by the evening down into the santa cruz mountains in san josé, staying mostly dry for our day on friday. let's take it to the temperatures for today. 57 in los gatos, and 59 in san martin. what is ahead as we go through next week, the bay area in the green color will see above average rainfall, while, of course, the south stays dry into next week. storms still developing and the details still have to be clear on how much rain and where the strongest of impacts will be, but, of course, we will be right here on "today in the bay" to keep you informed and we will leave you with the 7-day forecast. the dip in temperatures, and the storm developing for next week, but for now, let's take it to mike. we are starting over here in the east bay because we have the alert that continues. the speed sensors in the last 30

seconds cleared on the last refresh. 580, we had an alert because of a crash. there was oil that needed to be cleaned up, and they opened one and possibly both lanes. 580 crash, only one lane is blocked and looks like there's still no slowing so they may have cleared that to the shoulder. let's show you the bay bridge toll plaza, because the backup filled in the entire toll plaza, but look at the advantage you have with the carpool. the first california location to unionize for trader joe's. trader joe's has not responded to questions from the "los angeles times" about worker concerns. it comes as workers at an oakland starbucks also recently

♪♪ 5:57. welcome back. we are looking at what is trending this morning, and we

are starting with pop star, ed sheeran, and he's currently working on an album to be released after his death. yeah. in an interview with "rolling stone," the singer says i want to slowly make this album that is, quote, unquote, perfect for the rest of my life, and have it in my will after i die it comes out. in the meantime, in the short term, he has a new album coming out in may. >> that album will be called period, because it means the end. >> there you have it. here she comes again -- maybe all the way to broadway, even. take a look. ♪ nine nine to five ♪ ♪ >> yeah, the queen of country, dolly pardon, "here you come again," coming to a stage in

connecticut. the production is focused on a die-hard fan that learns lessons from the star, and it will feature hits like "nine to five" and "islands in the stream." >> so many great songs. >> who would ever think of dolly pardon and musical in the same -- >> it really makes sense. >> long overdue. folks who missed this particular character back again, today you can catch a new "law & order" episode, and i asked one actor what is in store, and he is returning for his 18th season. >> the show coming up is about a journalist who was murdered in his home, and that's the

beginning and i don't want to tell you anymore. >> he's laughing, because you see me interviewing and you couldn't hear me on that particular bite, but he says it starts out with a journalist, and he paused and i reminded him that i am a journalist. he thanked our producer for being such a long-time fan, because i told him kat is a long-time fan. tonight you can see "law & order," svu, and i sometimes call it suv. sadly, new details we are learning about a tense hostage situation.
