7:03 am
toyota. let's go places. welcome to krm"cbs this morning." good morning, norah. >> good morning, charlie. we begin with developments in the amanda knox murder trial. she and her ex-boyfriend convicted yet again in the 2007 murder of her roommate meredith kercher. >> this morning, police picked up the ex-boyfriend near the italian border. raffaele sollecito was picked up. knox will begin fighting extradition from the u.s. peter van sant is here with the story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. seattle's amanda knox had refused to return to italy for the third trial saying she had suffered greatly from what she describes as a wrongful and perverted justice system. knox woke up this morning a convicted murderer. amanda knox and her former boyfriend raffaele sollecito
7:04 am
guilty again of her roommate meredith kercher. >> we might never know the truth. we can only go by what's out there in the courts the documents. >> we were all just shocked, and i think upset. but we're all ready to fight. >> reporter: in a statement, amanda knox blamed her latest conviction on overzealous and intransient prosecution, reliance on unreliable testimony and evidence, and character assassination. amanda knox at a cafe in seattle had spoken to a reporter from the london newspaper "the guardian" of her fears before the verdict was announced. >> the italian government would approach the american government, and they extradite her. and i don't know what would happen. >> reporter: could knox be sent back to italy? >> this is a occasion where extradition would be appropriate, because she's already been convicted. >> reporter: in november 2007
7:05 am
meredith kercher's body was discovered inside this house she shared with knox and a group of other students. she had been stabbed to death. knox and her boyfriend, rafael sollecito were famously photographed kissing outside the murder scene. they were arrested days later after amanda confessed to police interrogators during grueling questioning, a confession she later recanted. authorities also arrested this man, rudy guede. his dna and bloody fingerprint were found in the room where kercher died. guede was convicted in 2008. in 2009 knox and sollecito were convicted and acquitted in a second trial in 2011. >> amanda knox has been found not guilty. >> reporter: and just yesterday found guilty again. and in this seemingly never-ending game of legal
7:06 am
ping-pong, knox will appeal to italy's supreme court yet again. we've also been told the family may appeal to the european court of human rights which has the power to overturn this verdict. norah? >> all right, peter, thank you. and a massive security operation is under way this morning in and around new york city. tens of thousands of police and other officials are working to protect super bowl xlviii. the department of homeland security is declaring sunday's game in new jersey a level-one national security event. more than 1 million people are expected to take part in super bowl-related activities. >> on sunday, 4,000 security officers will be at metlife stadium, military fighter jets are ready to respond to any attack. helicopters will patrol the sky above the city. and an extra 200 surveillance cameras are watching times square, where there are plenty of super bowl events. john miller is at the center of the security operation. he is now the nypd's deputy commissioner of intelligence. welcome back sir. >> good to be back.
7:07 am
>> all right. let's talk about your new job. what is -- what possible threats do we know about? can you give us insight? and what concerns you and the nypd the most? >> well, first, on the threats, right now and we scan this traffic literally minute to minute, there is no known credible threat that we have that is directed against the game. now, that said in the normal course of business we have a threat stream, that's threats that come in by mail anonymous calls, the same things you get every day, but some of it will mention the game or the venue. so, you know, you run all these down. we have a team of people that's been beefed up for this that works through that the fbi has a threat squad that's made up of agents and detectives that works with us on that. so that's a normal cadence. then you have the lead stream. these aren't threats. these are things you pick up through other investigations, and you run those out, too. and a few times a day we go over where are we on the threat where are we on the leads, what
7:08 am
do we have to left to do and we run everything out. so far at the end of the day, i haven't had anything keeping me up at night. the answer to your question what worries you is you always worry about what is the thing that's not in the threat pile or in the lead stream. if you look at the boston marathon bombing model where you have two people who aren't communicating with al qaeda, aren't part of a large group, just talking to each other, that's the kind of thing, how are we going to catch that? and we have a whole set of systems for that too. >> the head of the new jersey state police said he's worried about mass transit. why? >> i think he's worried about mass transit because of the historical draw of terrorists to two things -- one, aircraft. but there's an entire program built around aircraft interdiction for this. but, two, mass transit, which is going to be the major thing that's bringing people to this game, is going to be buses and trains. so that the normal focus, but there's a lot of protection there. >> i assume you do a lot of
7:09 am
things in terms of getting ready for some eventuality happening, like somebody trying to fly a plane into the stadium, that kind of thing? >> charlie, the other day while you were sleeping -- okay, while you were sleeping -- we actually never know when charlie's sleeping, but at 4:30 in the morning, to be precise, if you had been up you would have seen a couple of military jets f-15s streaking across the skies of new york city chasing a plane. they actually drill this when everybody's asleep so nobody sees anything that would alarm them in broad daylight. but the night before last, they had the big chase. they've drilled it before. if an aircraft violated the no-fly zone around the stadium, how would they interdict it and so on? it's built into the plan. and as we saw it, when we were all together last year in new orleans know, they used it there, too. >> all right. we miss you. >> well, i miss you guys, too. but i still get to see you every day. >> well, we're glad you still watch the show. >> thanks. >> thanks, john.
7:10 am
temperatures will reach the 50s today in atlanta. the region is still cleaning up from tuesday's disastrous winter storm. georgia's governor extended a state of emergency through sunday. he's also apologized for the response to the bad weather. and manuel bojorquez is in atlanta. >> reporter: good morning. most schools will close again today, but the roads are slowly getting back to normal. tow trucks spent the night hauling away cars that were still blocking emergency lanes, and this morning, traffic is flowing more smoothly than it has in days. >> it's right in the middle lane. >> reporter: some of the 2,000 drivers forced to abandon their cars during atlanta's storm spent thursday getting them back. >> i'm very excited. i'm ready to go home. >> reporter: ginny nickels was one of them. getting a lift from the national guard. >> i left a diet pepsi in here, and it is frozen solid. i'm so glad i didn't sleep in the car.
7:11 am
[ laughter ] >> reporter: for her and others it was the end to a three-day ordeal. given what you've been through, do you place blame? >> i can't imagine why that stretch of road was icing. >> i'm the governor. the buck starts with me. >> reporter: georgia governor took responsibility, admitting he had not closely followed the forecast. >> i did not know it had been upgraded and a more serious warning had been issued. >> reporter: on monday afternoon, the national weather service issued a warning for north central georgia. the 12 hours later, it was updated to include all of metro atlanta. that morning, atlanta mayor kasim reed tweeted, atlanta, we are ready for the snow. when flakes started falling around 11:00 a.m. deal and reed were at a luncheon where the governor presented the mayor with a portrait, as georgian of the year. within hours tens of thousands of people were left stranded. >> i am not satisfied with the
7:12 am
response that was made. we did not respond in the magnitude at an earlier enough time to be able to avoid some of these consequences. >> reporter: the governor said his office will conduct an internal review to figure out what went wrong and what can be done differently in the future. charlie and norah? >> all right, manny, thank you. this morning, dzhokhar tsarnaev's lawyers are preparing for a capital case. federal prosecutors will seek the death penalty for the accused boston marathon bomber. the april attack killed three people and wounded more than 260. tsarnaev pleaded not guilty to 30 charges. attorney general eric holder says the nature of the conduct at issue and the result of harm compelled this decision a move backed by boston's new mayor. >> the past nine months, the people of boston have shown the world that we are a city full of heart and courage. we stand together as one boston in the face of evil and hatred.
7:13 am
attorney general holder has applied the law in this case, and i support the process that has brought him to this decision. >> rikki klieman is an analyst. good morning. >> good morning. >> what factors went into eric holder's decision, and did he contact, or any input from the families? >> there was input from the families and i think that is totally appropriate. to make a decision of this magnitude -- and we know the federal death penalty is very rarely used -- that the views of the families would have to be taken into account. what went into his decision were ideas from the prosecution about what this crime was about. you had planning. you had betrayal of the united states of america. it was the iconic event where thousands gather at the boston marathon. and that the defendant showed no remorse, according to mr. holder. >> rikki, this is going to be
7:14 am
the highest death penalty profile case since timothy mcveigh. is there any chance dzhokhar tsarnaev will not be put to death? >> yes,s there always that chance. one of the things that's interesting, there was a poll taken in massachusetts a number of months ago, and that in that poll there were 57% of the people in massachusetts who oppose the death penalty in this case. also, we don't know what eric holder knows and what the defense knows about any mitigating factors. was this young man under the influence of his brother? perhaps of his family? perhaps of outsiders? was there some mental disease or defect that went into his being so susceptible that his mind could become -- >> you just posed my question. what might the defense be? >> that is part of the defense. remember this, charlie and norah, the real defense in this case is save this man's life. so as we go forward, of course there will be questions about whether there could be a plea bargain where he would get life instead of death.
7:15 am
the other question, of course for the defense has got to be do we want to move for a change of venue? you mentioned, norah, timothy mcveigh. as we can recall that happened in oklahoma the case was heard in colorado. this may be a case where change of venue is so important to the defense, because boston itself feels wounded. boston is a victim here. >> all right. rikki klieman, thank you. >> thank you. and this morning, yahoo! is investigating a cyber attack on its e-mail service. hackers stole usernames and passwords. yahoo! is not saying how many accounts were hit. the information was not taken from yahoo!'s own system but a third-party database. the theft could lead to more serious breaches because many people use the same passwords on other sites. this morning, there are reports microsoft may be close to announcing its next ceo. the company veteranny della is expected to get the job. he is in charge of the giant.
7:16 am
he would replace steve ballmer. we asked paul allen about the challenges the new ceo will face. >> if you think about it the job of running microsoft is one of the -- and i used to tell steve ballmer this -- is one of the toughest jobs in the world, because you're competing with so many different companies, so many different products. and any new ceo coming in has to decide do they continue to compete in so many areas, or do they jettison some of the larger investments that have already been made and focus down on a lesser number of areas? >> what would you recommend? >> to do that, i'd have to really get in there myself, and i just try to give my advice on the outside. i think there'll probably be some amount of simplification. the argument, i think, basically is, you know, if you -- if you're thinking about the future of competing platforms, you know, smartphones or laptops, whatever just something like search, which, you know, google
7:17 am
dominates right now, is something like that integral to what you want to do in the future? or can you focus on other areas and not pursue search? so those are really, really hard decisions. >> as part of the transition bill gates reportedly may step down as microsoft chairman. >> and we'll have more with paul allen in our next hour. he owns the seattle seahawks. eye head, heahead, he talks about the team's chances of winning the first super bowl. passengers are back on land in texas after yet another outbreak of illness at sea. the caribbean princess returned to port in houston. larry seward of khou is dockside in pasadena this morning. >> reporter: good morning to you and to our viewers on the west coast. officially the caribbean "princess" docked one day early because of faulty weather conditions. but there are 165 passengers on board with some kind of stomach sickness, and a handful of confirmed cases of the norovirus. this is the third outbreak on a cruise ship this year.
7:18 am
late thursday night, the caribbean princess docked in houston, one day earlier than planned. passengers began deboarding the ship this morning met by members of centers for disease control. people forced to spend the night on board expressed their frustration. >> i just want to get off. who knows what tomorrow will be with the cdc? just want to get off, because it's just been misinformation and the story -- >> reporter: in a statement released on thursday princess cruises said the ship was returning early because of weather conditions but they did confirm that passengers on board were sick. this outbreak comes just days after a royal caribbean cruise was cut short following a similar incident. the "explorer of the seas" returned back in new jersey after a fifth of the passengers and crew members fell ill. members of the cdc boarded the ship to disinfect while passengers were still on the cruise liner. >> i was on the floor. i was laying down i was so sick. >> reporter: once on dry land, passengers will be given overnight hotel accommodations and discounts on future cruises.
7:19 am
charlie, norah? >> barry seward in texas. time to show you the headlines. president obama will call on large companies today to help find jobs for the long-term unemployed. 300 companies including walmart and apple already agreed to do so. the president will also issue a memo pledging support from the federal government. the detroit free press says toyota is telling dealers in the u.s. to stop selling six of the most popular models. the problem? heated seats that don't meet american flamability standards. dealers are being warned to stop selling avalon avalon hybrid camry, corolla, sienna, tacoma. the "wall street journal" says the syrian government may be dragging its feet removing chemical weapons. the united states believes the assad regime could miss the deadline for destroying the arsenal. syria blames the delay on the need for safety and security
7:20 am
storm clouds moving through overnight. we had a few showers and now things drying out nicely and the clouds are parting. we're in for a pretty nice friday around the bay area. some snow still falling in the sierra nevada but even that's beginning to wind down after seeing up to 2 feet of snow in the higher peaks. still looks like by the afternoon a little breezy coastside. that will keep temperatures mainly in the mid-50s. 50s and low 60s inside the bay. the weekend at least to start looks good. a slight chance of showers near the coastline on sunday.

7:31 am
can the first lady also be a working woman? laura bush says the future presidential spouse may not want to give up her or his day job. we'll hear from the former first lady. that's ahead. and in a new interview this morning, president obama says he believes the winter olympics in sochi will be safe. the first american athletes are just arriving in russia. the state department issued a travel alert for the games after several threats of attacks. but much of the talk in sochi is about money, not terrorism. mark phillips spoke to a russian construction insider about sochi's transformation. >> reporter: it's just days until the winter olympic games open here in sochi. they're already the most unlikely and perhaps the most controversial games ever. they're certainly the most expensive. the sochi olympics were meant to be the new russia's coming-out party. vladimir putin's games, showing russia as politically stable economically strong, a world
7:32 am
player once again. but there's some old skeletons rattling around in its closets. cronyism and corruption. a moscow opposition group has launched a new website detailing what it says is the corruption that has made these games the most expensive ever. this is the bolshoi ice dome one of the major olympic venues built, the website says a crony of vladimir putin, and at a cost of about $300 million, it's about $25,000 a seat. they say it costs about two and a halftimes what it should have. and another putin pal, they say, rotenberg, and the total bill about $50 billion. five times as much as the previous winter games in vancouver. and where did the money go? according to this man, valerie morozov, a major olympic contractor, now a fugitive
7:33 am
living in england, the money went in payoffs, kickbacks to russian officials. when he tried to go public with his allegations, he received death threats and had to seek asylum in the u.k. >> i was informed that the contract on my assassination. >> reporter: because you knew too much you could finger other people? >> no because they -- they -- they miscalculated mement. >> reporter: morozov says he was told by local olympic officials to add about $30 million to his bill, and then pay that money back to those officials through phantom companies. where was this extra money supposed to go? what was it for? >> the only one reason was for their pockets. >> reporter: their pockets? >> there was only one reason. >> reporter: there's no olympic event for finding where the money went and no olympic medal for spending more of it than anybody else. if there were, sochi would have already won gold. for "cbs this morning," i'm mark phillips in sochi. with the super bowl only two
7:34 am
days away we are reminded what it took for the denver broncos to get their peyton manning & company hat to stop. peyton had to stop the new england patriots. robert kraft owns the patriots. under his leadership they've gone to six super bowls, winning half of them. bob kraft, welcome. >> always nice to be with you all. >> and how difficult is it to go to the super bowl, and you don't see the patriots on the field? >> when you're in the championship game and -- you know, we have this winner-take-all philosophy and what happens is the rug gets pulled out. and actually one of the teams was going to be playing in the game sunday is going to have the feeling i had a week ago sunday where you think you have the real chance to go there, and then it just gets taken away. and you're still heartsick. >> yeah, it hurts a little bit. but the rivalry has been fun to watch between peyton and tom brady. what do you think it's meant for the game of football? >> oh, it's wonderful. and actually, we're going to play -- i believe play them again next year.
7:35 am
and it might be the last time the two of them, the two greatest quarterbacks in the modern era, go on the field. they have great respect for one another. they played 15 times, and my guy, tommy, has won 10 of them. [ laughter ] >> who are you rooting for, bob kraft? >> not that i'm competitive. >> who are you rooting for? >> well i tell you, i have people on both sides. i love wes welker and i've hired two coaches in my career you know, pete carroll and bill belichick, in 20 years. so i get torn. but to be honest, it's hard to root for anybody. >> yeah. >> really. when you're in my position. >> yeah, what is that? pete carroll, of course with the patriots and now with the seahawks. are you rooting for him just a bit? >> well yeah he's such great guy. one of the nicest men -- and he's different profile than most of the coaches. he's like energetic, enthusiastic, young man on the sideline. he has a great family. he's a very special person.
7:36 am
wes welker who plays for the broncos, is also pretty special guy. >> so what do you think about the weather and playing in weather like this and future super bowls? >> well, i personally think it's great. i helped try to lobby to have the game here originally. you know, my main reason first was because of 9/11 just to send a signal to the world how important this new york/new jersey region is. but our most memorable games have been in the elements. i actually wish there was some lights now. i think people would remember -- the greatest game ever played in our stadium in foxboro was the snow game with the tough -- adam vinatieri made the great kick and fans still talk about that game. >> mm-hmm. roger goodell has made it clear he wants to grow the revenue of the nfl. what role will team owners play in that? >> i hope we'll behave and do our part -- actually, you know
7:37 am
what, my son jonathan leads the digital media committee, and they announced yesterday this new "nfl now" which is for people who want -- can't get enough nfl -- fans can't get enough, it's a way to go over the top. and they're going to tailor as much football coming back to you as you can get, promote cbs ratings in the process. >> we like that. growing revenue $25 billion by 2017. that's a lot. more popular than ever. the ratings are huge. now you're offering a thursday package. and at the same time we see poll numbers that 40% of parents say they wouldn't want their child to play football, because they're worried about safety. what do you think about that? >> yeah it's unfortunate. we have to do a better job in public relations. you know, we've done a lot to make the games safer. i can just say my sons played, i played. there's no greater life lessons
7:38 am
in any sport than playing football. it's about team. whether you're running a business, or philanthropy, the lessons you learn young in life you know, about hard work, perseverance, preparation put team first, you have to subjugate your ego to putting the team first, and you depend on the man on the left and the man on the right, and it's just wonderful lessons, and the people who play are awesome. we have to do a better job of doing that. you know, concussions are down 13% year-to-year. we've worked very hard to do things that make the game safer, and we want young moms like the two of you to be comfortable having your kids -- >> i like the young mom designation. when you came involved all three of us separately commented about your shoes. >> yeah, without knowing the other half. >> without knowing -- they're very hip. you wore jay-z last weekend. do you have jay-z on your ipod or is it just two cool people
7:39 am
coming together? >> no no no he -- i have jbj and elton and -- >> when might we have a decision from the nfl about london as an expansion site and on thursday night? >> well i think with london we have three games there -- i don't know -- they're sold out next year. we played there a couple of times. i think that's a great place. and i really believe that before the decade's out we'll have a team there. >> mm. >> and we have a thursday night package that's in the bidding process now. you talk about the great interest. the interest in our thursday night package from all our broadcast partners is tremendous, and we are the only way to get a mass audience watching as you will see this
7:40 am

quarterback that's had an amazing year and he on the field in effect operates as a coach, and he's seeing what the defense is doing. he's, in effect calling all the plays. he's a uniquely talented vanilla. so the question is all of that offensive skill, you know versus our top rated defense. so that's going to be a very very interesting thing to watch. and then i think our offense has a chance to prove that they can do more than people thunk they can. >> what is it you like about the team? >> well, i guess there's a number of things. you know we're a very young team. a lot of it's about speed and grittiness and determination. and pete kind of uniquely gives the players the ability to express themselves the way they are. >> what does the velocity make
8:22 am
that puts them in the super bowl? >> i think you know both of them are out of the box thinkers. in the case of russell wilson they loved this level and the skill, even though most people had ruled him out as a first round pick and i think if we redid the draft today he'd most certain will i be taken in the first round. they have the ability to thing outside the box. as a general manager, you have to have a gold p gut. you have to have a sense of what's inside a player and what's going to get player over the top. >> what's the satisfaction for you? >> i think the satisfaction comes on a number of different levels. one is just seeing how the community responds to the team and enjoys you know, seeing the team victorious and supporting them. i think, especially in smaller markets, i think that comes to the floor in a pretty unique way. and then for me of course behind the scenes you get to

looking beautiful and alive and came out in a body bag. >> her family's attorney susan carton. >> from the time i got this case i knew it was a murder. >> former nypd detectives, tom gee jones, and robert mueller were among the first to arrive and the fact that she was half dressed raised a red flag. and they noted bruises, and choking marks on her neck. >> that night when she went to the soho house, there was nobody there with her except nicholas brooks. >> her boyfriend, and detectives learned they checked in together. >> i believe nicholas brooks caused the demise. >> her 24-year-old boyfriend has been arrested -- >> but brooks' sister amanda believe the police have it all wrong. >> my brother did not murder her. those bruises happened earlier
8:35 am
that night. >> none of the injuries that were found on her body were the result of rough sex. >> he loved her. i know my brother is instant. >> amanda says there's more to the story, that her brother's arrest is a rush to judgment and it's because of their famous father, an oscar-winning composure, with a sorted past. >> he was indicted -- >> i think it's a sensational story, and if my brother was not my father's son, this would not be happening. >> i remember this story, because the soho house is so exclusive, and you just don't expect that kind of story there, but the sister was saying they jumped to conclusion. >> he was an ass, and he earned millions writing commercial jingles, but he was charged with

8:42 am
and how do you see the game from a quarterback's perspective. take us inside the mind of a quarterback. >> first of all, when you look at peyton manning, what he has accomplished this year it's amazing. his job is to continue to do what we did all year basically break every record and touchdown passes means points and not to make mistakes in this game, and not get behind and throw the game away early, you know. give yourself a chance early to win this a big game like this the super bowl and that's what russell wilson is thinking and the seattle seahawks let's try to keep it close and win at the end, and run the football and keep peyton manning off the field, and you know it's true it's very true. you can say all the things you want, but that's the truth. >> how concerned if you are peyton manning would you be worried about richard sherman, and he said peyton manning
8:43 am
throws a lot of ducks. >> it's a wobbly pass and sometimes they are very accurate and on time. would you be worried about him? >> i don't think peyton manning cares about what richard sherman says, i think he cares about how he plays, he's a very good corner, and sometimes you don't throw in his direction, and i used to do that, and you have a great corner and not a good match-up and you go the other way. >> russell wilson has watched every throw that drew brees made. what is the advantage that russell wilson has? a smart guy? >> thorough. a smart guy. if he is doing that he knows his game is similar to drew brees, because russell was a shorter guy in the pocket but from what i have heard, he's
8:44 am
just a competitor a leader, and he's a young guy playing in his first super bowl, and i am very excited for him. >> playing in a super bowl matters how much? >> it mattered a lot your first super bowl. you understand going through that game day, and what it takes, the preparation for the week. and so usually on sunday you go out and have your 20 minutes warmup and ten minutes later you are on the field playing, and now you have the whole pregame show, and so it's a lot longer and it's just a different feeling. >> who has the best running game? >> you know, if i was the quarterback, i would want lynch as myroning running back and seattle is going to run the football and if they can do that that's the kind of game they want to play. >> can we talk about the dolphins for a second. the text messages released today. i would bet that nobody knows what happened between the two
8:45 am
but the two of them but do you think it's possible for football players to bully other football players. when you first heard about this what did you think? >> i didn't know what to think. obviously there were issues there in some way that wasn't, you know addressed at the time and it got to a point now where it's embarrassing for the miami dolphins. i am a former dolphin, and i will say i talked to mr. ross a few times, and he is going to be committed to making it right and doing the right things where in the future as far as how you act in a locker room and the things you are supposed to do as a professional athlete. >> isn't there a culture of trash talking, and guys in the locker room say outrageous things? >> yeah, they do. i have been around it too, and there's a point where it needs to stop, too, and i was not there personally and so it's hard for me -- >> did you have a quarterback come up and say throw it at me? >> oh, yeah.
8:46 am
some quarterbacks said, don't worry, i will, stick around and i will throw at you. >> can we talk about how you look? i have seen the commercials with nutrisystem. were you sensitive about your weight or did you think i need to lose a couple pounds? >> i saw some friends that were -- at golf tournaments that were on the program, and i was like, wow, and one lost 40 pounds, and i thought i could use to lose 20 pounds or so and i end up losing 22 pounds and it worked. my other friend the ceo, he said i would like to start our men's program, and let's -- >> were you embarrassed to do that? >> no, i was not. he said let's make it cool for men to lose weight so we did that, and it was for six years. and the monday after the super bowl is the second most dieting decision day of the year so if you are going to make that decision, make it nutra system guys. >> dan

fire ripped through it overnight good morning. 8:55 on your friday. let's get you updated on some headlines now. i'm frank mallicoat. a house barely standing after a fire ripped through it overnight down in santa clara. a woman inside did suffer burns and was taken to the hospital. smoke alarms saved the family of four inside that building. oakland boy accused of killing his sister last week is scheduled to be in court on monday. the 14-year-old will be prosecuted as a juvenile. police say he shot and killed his 17-year-old sister. relatives say it was because she had bleached his clothes. and a pedestrian was hit and killed by a caltrain earlier this morning. the victim was on the tracks at the redwood city station when he was hit around 6 a.m. still unclear how he got on the tracks. well, it is a friday. that means the weekend is here. here's lawrence with more on
8:56 am
that. >> going to get interesting over the weekend but now looks like the showers are winding on down and headed out of the bay area. we had a few leftover raindrops overnight but now your skies clearing out over san francisco looking from oakland, looks like we are going to see high pressure trying to sneak in here the next day or so. and that means some dry weather to start the weekend. more snow in the sierra nevada overnight too but looks like the roadways will open up nicely there. 50s at the beaches, 50s and 60s inside the bay today. a split decision on the weekend. we'll see some sunshine on saturday. clouding up though on sunday and slight chance of showers near the coastline. then a return to more sunshine and warmer weather. looking toward the middle of next week. we're going to check your "kcbs traffic" coming up next.

good morning of the liza battalones here with your "kcbs traffic." we are just hearing now from caltrain that they do expect to re-open the redwood station by 9:30 this morning. it has been shut down following this morning's accident involving a fatality on the tracks. currently we are looking at up to 20-minute delays for both northbound and southbound service. no delays reported for the bart system all morning. it's been a smooth ride for them as with the ferries and altamont commuter express. if you are heading for 880, it has been jam-packed because of an earlier accident. northbound 880 slow out of san leandro from beyond marina approaching downtown oakland. and over at the bay bridge toll plaza, it's still "friday light." those metering lights are off. have a great weekend, everybody.
