well, good morning to you. welcome to "mornings on 2." i'm dave clark. >> i'm tori campbell. it's monday, january 3rd. we begin with overnight news from marin county. police in novato are still on the scene of a horrifying double shooting. it happened early this morning

outside a safeway supermarket. ktvu's kraig debro joins us live with more on the story. >> reporter: good morning,er t ory. it's been about seven hours since the shooting happened. when you first get here, you can see the two bullet holes in the back right of that toyota corolla there. but if you look up the corner on the driver's side, there is a hole there, too. that would explain how the two were caught. police hope forensic evidence they are gathering right now will help -- with the help of a sophisticated camera will lead them to the shooters. we just shot this video, minutes ago, it shows a discarded police of clothing being pulled from the victim's car. it happened at 12:10 this morning. now, i've spoken to a safeway

employee about what happened. the a white toyota corolla coming into the parking lot and parking and then another vehicle following that car in. the witness said he heard someone yell, get out of the car twice and then heard several shots. >> i was just going to get gas. novato is not like this. it's pretty alarming. >> i come to safeway a lot. >> reporter: you come here -- >> i come here for coffee every morning before work. >> reporter: on the videotape you can see flashes of light from behind the vehicle. but you can't hear the shots or if anyone said anything before the shots were fired. none of the officers on the scene say they know where the victims were taken. both survived the shooting. police say one of them is 26 years old latino and the other, 23 years old, and he's white.

this is a rare event here in novato. here, the guy using the sophisticated forensic camera, he says he also writes parking tickets during the day, and the bags police are using to collect evidence are not specialized evidence bags but brown paper bags they inside the safeway store. a tow truck is on the scene and we're sewnly speculating about the tow -- only speculating about the tow truck but typically they will tow the vehicle to an evidence lot where they can keep it and sit on it. and they are hosing down the scene, in case there's blood and they want to clean that up. we've called police. they haven't called us back. they said they will. i'm gonna call them back and see if i can get any further

information. back to you. >> thank you, kraig. the red cross is helping a family. their house caught on fire. a mother was up watching television, and she smelled smoke and called 911. >> i got my kids. one of my kids didn't have on shoes but i would rather have them be safe than anything goes. >> fire officials say there was a problem with the wiring in the attic and that's where the fire started. the home does have working smoke detectors but they did not go off because of the fire's location. fire officials say the home has about 7 $75,000 worth of -- about $75,000 worth of damage. in about four hours from n ow, jerry brown will be sworn in as governor. this will be his third time in

the governor's office. claudine wong has more. >> reporter: good morning, dave. this is the memorial auditorium right behind me where there should be some security sweeps coming up very soon here. we don't expect the speech and wearing -- and swearing in this morning to take very long as jerry brown takes his office as governor. this is his third time. in about 90 minutes we're gonna do a security sweep for the crush of media that's already arrived here outside the auditorium to cover brown a inauguration -- brown's inauguration. when we talk about brown's inauguration, he's unique. we can talk about the other two. he started in '75, declaring an era of limits. four years later, he criticized people who wanted to spend more and have more governor spending. in '75, he talked about u nemployment being too high. we're in double digits now. he talked about cutting the

governor's office budget. you have significant challenges now. the climate alone has been contentious in sacramento. term limits have created a resolving door here -- revolving door here. and now you have the budget deficit to 2012. >> we have the largest deficit by far of any state and we have very little options on how to solve the problem. at this point, california has not turned the corner yet. the economic crisis. i don't think there's any time needed here to be celebrating. >> reporter: so the question is what tone will brown's speech today take? certainly everyone agrees it will be a roll-up-your-sleeps and let's get to work speech. but some say this needs to be a big picture speech, we can do i

t. let's give people some hope. let's look at the hard numbers. that may be saved for a week from today when we have to look at the budget for the first t ime. that's not the case for all other governors being sworn in, 26 of them. the tradition has been here not to have a big party. everyone seems to agree. no one in california is in the mood to party. they are in the mood to find some solutions. claudine wong, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you. well, outgoing governor arnold schwarzenegger plans to be at brown's inauguration ceremony. when he leaves office, schwarzenegger said he will most likely hit the speech circuit and write an autobiography. arnold schwarzenegger became governor after the recall election and was reelected in 2006. if you want to autopsy the

inauguration, we will -- want to watch the inauguration, we will streamline it live at ktvu.com. holiday travel is still b eing affected by the weather this morning the we just checked at san francisco international airport and there are several departure and arrival delays. oakland and san jose are r eporting a couple of delays. if you are flying out of sfo you are advised to check your status before you go to the part. and part of interstate 5 in southern california is shut down because of the blustery storm. the chp closed the grapevine north of los angeles yesterday afternoon. officers say cars were sliding across lanes of traffic and that dozens of vehicles were disabled or unable to handle the conditions. some families did not seem to find the delay. >> never seen snow? >> no. since i was born. >> reporter: what do you think of this? >> it's like so awesome.

it's my first time. >> reporter: he's wearing s horts. >> he did not expect the snow in l.a. >> the closure could be a advisory inconvenience for people trying to get back to work -- could be a huge inconvenience for people trying to get back to work today. we'll have a live update from the grapevine area coming up in the next half hour. i did hear there were wind gusts up to 90 miles an hour in some areas there. so very treacherous. >> and that guy was in shorts and flip-flops. >> yes. let's see what sal sees on the roads now. what are you seeing, sal? >> we're seeing that traffic is still pretty light compared to a normal day. this week, people are starting to get back to work. the toll plaza, it's stop and g o. it will start coming back after a few days, when vacations start wearing out.

westbound 92 as you head out to the high rise, looks pretty good getting over to the 91. if you are driving in san jose, definitely more people out t here. not a lot of crashes to report right now. 7:09. let's go to steve. thank you, sal. a very good morning for e veryone. for some it's clear. for others, it's foggy. the south bay could be really thick over the next couple of days. the pattern is change -- is changing. we're going to a dry pattern. the rain could hold off for a week unless there's some bugaboo is in the system and i don't see it. fog will be the big story. but by the coast, sunny and w arm. looks to be on the menu as he head toward the week and the middle of the week. sun and clouds. 30s but a lot of 40s. tomorrow, foggy and then mostly sunny. yes. that's what i said looks dry the rest of the week, but the

fog -- this is a fog product. i really want you to keep your eye on flew the valley. and then it comes back in. we'll see an easterly breeze and then that means it comes through the delta, all the way over to marin county. not showing up completely is the fog around san jose. it's one of those patterns where concord and livermore did be about 49, 50 and over by the coast it can be near 60. here comes the fog over fairfield, vacaville and there it is starting to creep back in. 37 santa rosa/napa. 47, san francisco. mid-40s, san jose is in there, 21 up in tahoe. reno at 29. 37, las vegas and 40s and 50s down in southern california. our low on the weekend is not moving into southern nevada and also into arizona. and our other low is going on b

y? as that scoots by sending that system well to the north. it's a dry morning. and once that footprint is t here, it's hard to budge. you need a lot of wind, rain and i just don't see that. thick fog, clouds. more sun as the low goes south, we have a dry pattern the so 3 0s, 40s to start off with. but then partly sunny. 40 to near 30. this afternoon, we'll see -- i think -- there its is -- goes, 50, to 55. 51 to 53 on some of these temperatures. 55 san jose and santa cruz. the five-day has a dry pattern. back to the desk. >> thank you, steve. a newly-surfaced video is causing problems for the navy. the man behind the video and what it shows that's so controversial. are you up yet? apparently the new year t riggered problems with the iphones, mainly the alarm not

working. so what's apple reaction to this problem? and if you missed it before, find out where you can see the world series trophy up close this week.

two american soldiers were killed in central iraq y esterday. details have not been released. the u.s. ended combat operations in september. however about 50,000 american troops remain in the country assisting and training iraqi security forces. there are new calls for permanent u.s. bases in

afghanistan. lindsey graham says he's he believes such bases would ensure that afghanistan never falls back into the hands of t errorists. democratic congresswoman barbara lee of oakland released a statement saying she is appalled by the calls for permanent bases and that is -- and that it's time to bring u.s. troops back home. the u.s. navy says it will investigate the "clearly i nappropriate videos shown on the uss enterprise. the videos made back in 2006 and 2007 include gay slur, mend a nd -- men and women pretending to shower together and some lewd scenes. the videos were made by the man 0 who was second in command at the time, who is now the c aptain. a concord family is angry with outgoing governor schwarzenegger. in his final hours in office,

he commuted the prison sentence of es devon nunez -- es devon n unez. he's the son of fabio nunez. fred santos said "we're totally outraged. this is dirty politics cutting back room deals. i guess if you are the son of somebody important you can kill someone and get all sorts of breaks." esty ven -- >> the governor reliesed e steban's -- reduced esteban's sentence because his codefendant confessed to stabbing santos. governor schwarzenegger also reduced the prison

sentence of a whom who at the age of 16 killed her pimp. she was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. the governor called that e xcessive. he reduced the sentence to 25 years and the possibility of parole. 7:18. the-- the police department has fewer officers than it did ten years ago. yet, homicides in san jose have dropped to their lowest level since 2000. mayor chuck reed said he's not surprised. >> we're one of the safest cities in the country and it's because of the great work of our police department and

community working together. >> here are crime statistics from the bay area's other c ities. oakland had 94, compared to 110 the year before. sanfrancisco was 50 in 2010 -- was 50 in 2010. yesterday, apple said it was aware of the problem with the alarms on the iphones. they should all of the alarms should be working by today. it wasn't a problem with the recurring alarms, just the single alarm function. iphone alarm systems also f ailed to work properly when daylight savings time took effect last year. now microsoft isn't saying what caused a problem reported by any hot mail users over the weekend. hundreds said they had old e- mails to the delete file and actually deleted without any

prompts to do so. hot mail is the world's mostly largely used e-mail service. facebook has raise the $ 500 billion from goldman sachs and a russian investment firm. that puts facebook at $ 50 billion according to the new york times. the new money will give facebook the chance to pursue a cquisitions all without being a publicly traded account. ap after the least for now. that's because the s.e.c. is reportedly looking into the trading. 7:0. well, the new year is bringing new changes for recycling and garbage collection services in san mateo county. starting today, recycling and composting carts will be picked

up on a weekly basis. and also starting today, residents can place food scraps in their carts along with the composting. >> we're encouraging people to give it a -- to give it a try. but now instead of the other cart, they are moving it over to the green cut. all right. the new year means new, expensive for some commuters. the group that's being charged extra to cross the bay. also, what's being done to solve a major trash problem and why the cleanup efforts are still facing some delays. good morning. if you are driving on the bay area commute, so far not so bad. there are more people but we'll find out why. it's still a pretty decent commute now.

the trash has not been p icked up since christmas day for a lot of the new york residents because collection crews have been busy plowing all of the snow. only about 50% of the employees are back on garbage duty today. so it will take a while for those huge bags of trash to disappear. the other half of the garbage crews will remain on snow cleanup until the streets are color. if -- if you missed your chance to see the giants' t rophy, the trophy will be back on display at city hall today and tomorrow from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. the viewing is free you but it is on a first come, first served

basis. sal, you saw it, right? you see everything but you saw the trophy, right? >> i saw the trophy, that's right. >> it's really impressive. they will be showing it around. it's the first one in san francisco. let's take a look at -- let's take a look at the commute on 237. this commute on 2011. still has not -- still has not gained its robusts in we had back in 2010. but i think a lot of people still having time off, some schools are still off so it will probably take a week or two to get back on full dis-- full display. the 880 commute that traffic looks very nice. when you go to the toll plaza, it's interesting. at first we had a little bit of a slowdown but now it's

completely calmed down and they've even switched the m etering lights off. let's go to steve. well, a calmer pattern here after a -- we, rainy, cloudy, even snowy for some weekend. a couple inches fell in lake county. we have a lot of 30s, especially towards the north. some low 30s. just heard from joe. he's near oak mont. 34degrees -- 34 degrees. it's cold. one low moves out, the other goes right on by. 37 santa rosa/napa, 34 kenwood and i think near santa rosa i saw a 34 as well. oakland, 45. palo alto, 42 now. along with redwood city. concord/livermore, 40s. sanjose is in that same ballpark at 45 degrees. a lot of fog. livermore says fog. i noticed some areas of fog all over the place. that's gonna be the big weather story. 21 in tahoe, 29 in tahoe.

there's cold air in place. that-- that low is sliding. it looks like we have a dry pattern the rest of the week. 50s for the temperatures. now,fuls you -- unless you are up farther north you might be in the upper 40s but a dry pattern and i was just d iscussing here with nelson, make the plans, tennis, w hatever. it-- it looks good about you -- if you don't mind a little fog. jean quan will be served in this morning. what she's doing now before her inauguration. >> reporter: i'm tara moriarty live along california street where you will no longer be able to catch a cable car.

you don't know if it's safe. >> there is another wildlife mystery in the area. 100,000 drumfish washed up along the arkansas river. scientists believe disease is likely to blame for that situation. well, all of golden gate park could get landmark status if the san francisco historical commission gets its way. that could make it impossible to change anything about the park without the commission's approval arecording to a report in the "san francisco exam b eer." the commission wants to preserve the beauty of the park. however, critics say the way people use parks can change over time. golden gate park needs to be able to accommodate that. rockledgeened chuck berry is feeling better after a brief collapse during a new year's eve show in chicago. this is video from youtube, s howing the 84-year-old rocker when he returned to the stage to assure the audience that he

los gatos andwoodside, 32 to 39 degrees. the rain is going all the way down the coast and then out to see. it won't be a problem. if anything, high pressure b uilds in. that will be great for the coast but the fog is not going anywhere. 20s in the mountains. 20s, 30s, 40s elsewhere or 50s down to san diego. big system but it's heading north and not towards us. it's a dry pattern today. we do have some partly cloudy, mostly cloudy skies. it will give way to mostly sunny later 0. low 50s to a few mid-50s. the trend is to keep that fog increasing, especially the valley fog coming back in from the delta. upper 50s to near 60. dave and tori? >> thank you, steve. 7:57. right now in sacramento, final preparations are underway for jerry brown's inauguration as

' 75 and's 79 -- and '79. brown has said he's learned a lot in the 28 hours since he left the governor's office and he will need that knowledge because sometimes have changeed. >> when jerry brown got eat l ected in 1974, the questions being asked of him were not how you are gonna fix the economy. it's a very different period of time. so now all eyes are focused on the economy to the degree they can. >> reporter: today's speech inside the war memorial auditorium is expected to be short while the budget is front and center. and keep in mind, he has another speech to give in about a week specifically about the budget. today, the speech may be more symbolic. >> his father was deemed the master builder of california, the builder of public highways.

the higher education system and, you know, hopefully his son will be known as the person who h elped california get out of a difficult. >> reporter: as far as tone, political experts say they expect it to be somber with maybe a touch of optimism. but certainly it's a let -- let's get to work speech. this is not expected to take very long. we're told they would be surprised if it went until noon. so it should be quick and short and a incompetent -- and then there's hot dogs and chips on the lawn of the capitol. that's the food of the day and then he says he will go back to his office and get some work done. all of this is low budget. it's the way he's done it in the past. apparently jerry brown, when it comes to inaugurations has not. claudine wong, claudine wong,
