weather. the warmest day of the week. we have patchy fog so be careful. through the day the fog is going to start to disappear. temperatures are going to warm up to the 60s and low 70s. enjoy it, we have storms lining up after that. we'll have more on that in a few minutes. first elizabeth has traffic. >> is this going to be sit in the sun kind of day, no, sorry. >> wishful thinking. we are off to a nice start. we have a little bit of overnight roadwork extending for another half hour or so including some along the dumbarton bridge. there's live look at traffic heading towards the toll plaza and it sounds like that construction is in the westbound and eastbound lanes of 84. otherwise quiet especially here at the bay bridge toll plaza. no delays into san francisco. more traffic coming up and weather. back to you guys. >> thank you. today marks six months

since the deadly pipeline explosion in san bruno. survivors of the blast gathered to honor those who died. pg&e is still answering questions about what went wrong. christin ayers is in san bruno with the latest. christin, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. tonight at 6:11, the time to the minute that the explosion happened here in san bruno, residents will gather to remember the 8 who died. the vigil will go on tonight as new details emerge about a botched pg&e repair job in milpitas just 50 minutes before the explosion happened according to national transportation safety board documents. when power was out in milpitas, pressure to three peninsula gas lines spiked above their usual level. city officials say it's an alarming revelation. >> certainly it raises questions about what was going on and how it might possibly have affected what happened in

san bruno. >> i think it's scary. pg&e knows a lot more than what they are leading on. i seriously believe they are covering it up. >> reporter: the california public utilities commission is still waiting on documents from pg&e that prove that nearly a third its gas transmission lines are safe according to the "san francisco chronicle," the puc is threatening sanctions if pg&e doesn't have those documents available by next tuesday. pg&e has promised to make those documents available. they told us in a statement that it's critical that they find out everything that led up to this explosion. >> thank you, christin ayers in san bruno. this morning, a fire in a farmhouse in rural pennsylvania has killed seven children inside. their mother was in a barn milking cows, the father taking a nap in a milk delivery truck. a 3-year-old girl who was watching television at the time

escaped. she ran to the barn and told her mother. the house was filled with smoke. siblings ranged in age from 7 months to 11 years. the cause of the fire is being investigated. and new developments in libya this morning. we just learned that the united nations has opened an investigation into allegations of torture by leader moammar qaddafi's forces. this comes as qaddafi is issuing a new warning. he says libyans will fight back if western nations impose a no- fly zone to keep his regime from using its air force to bomb anti-government rebels. qaddafi's threat came in a threat with turkish television. he blamed the up rising in libya on youths misled and drugged by al qaeda. later this morning, president obama will meet with his national security advisors to talk about libya and how to get qaddafi to step down. the administration insists that if there is a no-fly zone, it would be authorized by the united nations and not the united states.

meantime in libya, pro- qaddafi forces have stopped rebels from advancing towards the capital of tripoli. 4:34. possible police misconduct in san francisco means more than 40 criminal cases are expected to be dropped today. those cases are linked to eight police officers accused of misconduct and perjury from drug busts caught on tape in residential hotels. at least 13 other cases have already been dismissed since the video was released by the public defender. san jose police hope someone can identify a gunman seen on surveillance video. the tape is from january, the night three people were killed at the mexicali club. take a look. a close-up shot from the video shows the gunman on the right wearing a gray bulletproof vest. the video shows the gunman chasing the owner of the club, grabbing him in a head lock and forcing him outside. they were out of camera range when the gunman shot the club owner, who managed to survive. police released the video to

identify the suspect. >> we no longer feel that we have an opportunity to identify him before he harms somebody else. and at this point, public safety and the safety of the general public outweighs keeping this under wraps. >> police say a drug debt was behind the attack. what the video doesn't show is the gun battle that killed three people, two suspects and a man in the club who shot them. 4:36 on this wednesday. the city of antioch has agreed to labor concessions to keep police officers from being laid off. the plan approved last night calls for scheduled salary increases to be deferred for officers sworn in since 2009. and beginning this summer officers will also need to start paying 3% of their salary towards their pensions. the labor deal will save antioch close to a million dollars. a lot of unanswered questions this morning about a body that washed up on rocks near fort mason in san francisco. the body was found yesterday afternoon. the national park police are

handling the case because the remains were discovered on parkland. authorities haven't revealed the gender or age of the person or how the person may have died. a warning for pet owners in silicon valley. someone apparently is trying to poison animals at a sunnyvale dog park. police say boxes of rat poison were found at the las palmas dog park on two separate instances. the small green pellets were discovered out in the open at the park. a threat reading "all dogs must die" was scrawled in blue marker on one of the boxes that was found. no dogs have been hurt yet. but park-goers say they are concerned about the safety of their pets and even their children. >> obviously i don't like it because i have two dogs of my own, and children that are here at the park running around. >> sunnyvale city officials are asking residents to be aware of their surroundings and to report any suspicious behavior. 4:37. did lawrence say 70? >> i think he did. he wasn't talking about his

age, either. >> thank you very much. [ laughter ] >> we love to see you, lawrence. >> happy wednesday, buddy. >> thank you very much. looks like a great day around the bay area. we do have this one weak system you can see it right here sliding into california. that will likely bring high clouds today with some patchy fog. another system behind that could bring us rain as early as tomorrow. so let's enjoy the day today. temperatures outside running in the 40s and 50s, again you have some patchy fog showing up around the bay area so be careful heading out. i think though as we head in toward the next couple of days we are going to enjoy some big changes as we'll see that sunshine for today but we may see as high as 70 in the napa valley, 69 fremont, 69 livermore and 68 degrees in san jose. 50s at the coast. but then things change again. those nice warm temperatures go away and we bring back some rain in the forecast for tomorrow. looks like a dry day come

friday. but then as we look toward the weekend, yup, here we go again. chance of showers coming up, unsettled, possibly wet through tuesday. let's check traffic with elizabeth. >> thank you, lawrence. let's go out towards the antioch bridge. they were doing one way traffic control overnight doing some roadwork. that is all picked up. now you're good to go heading into antioch and so far no brake lights even through a street towards somersville and pittsburg on into concord, nice and quiet, as well. in fact, we're off to a good start. no accidents out there right now. nothing out there blocking lanes. here's live look at the san mateo bridge. should be about a 13-minute drive time between hayward and foster city. those headlights are eastbound traffic off the high-rise, looking good in either direction. yesterday it was very hard to see that traffic shot because of all the low clouds and fog. you see a little better today a cross the golden gate bridge we are doing great through marin county. they have not done the lane change yet on the golden gate bridge. they should do that closer to 5:00. also, mass transit is on time. remember our radio partners,

all right, folks. got a good day coming our way, a lot of sunshine, a few clouds this afternoon, 60s and low 70s. there is some rain in the forecast. we'll talk about that coming up. >> there always is, lawrence, one way or the other, right? the space shuttle discovery

dealership and stole the $200,000 car. >> i would say it definitely required a certain amount of planning to have the ropes and a certain amount of experience with the ropes to know how to use them. >> reporter: police believe that the thief rappelled from the roof using rock climbing gear, then jimmied open a second-story window and strolled inside with various tools that he left behind, the culprit cut the inside locks and then drove away in the lamborghini. we don't know the face behind the criminal genius yet. but we do know the owner. >> nice little pizza dish. >> reporter: in 2008, yellow and black gallardo belongs to food network guy fieri the host of a show. if you haven't seen his shows you may have eaten at one of his restaurants. he owns johnny garlic and another restaurant in the santa rosa area. >> obviously he had a lot of ambitious to steal his car. >> reporter: spencer sells vintage and race cars and says, a job like this is really shocking. >> i have never heard of one

being stolen under these circumstances. >> reporter: he says the challenge will be to sell a car because it would be hard to sell a car this flashy whole or in parts. >> even to disassemble the car and sell parts, there are very few motors and transmissions and body parts running around like this. >> reporter: what do you do with one of these stolen beauties? your best bet would be to sell it overseas if you can get it to a port, you better hope the shipping officials look the other way when they check your papers or you could hide it in a big box. grace lee, cbs 5. governor brown's budget deadline is tomorrow and there is no deal. republican lawmakers holding firm to their demands for reforms and no tax extensions. the governor wants voters to decide on tax extensions. five republicans saying they are at an impasse because
