protesting new pushes by the police to keep demonstrators off the streets if they don't have a permit. oakland mayor libby schaaf says keeping people on sidewalks that prevents vandalism and violence and she says it's not a new policy. it's just enforcing the current policy. >> people are going to cause damages to businesses. that's not going to happen in the middle of the street. forcing people off the street on to the sidewalk could only exacerbate that problem. >> we spent a lot of time analyzing our policy and analyzing the law. we are very confident this approach is fully within our policy and the law. >> mayor schaaf is trying to prevent a repeat of the may 1st demonstration where vandals caused tens of thousands of dollars in damage. there was no such damage to businesses in the demonstrations over the weekend. a group hoping to recall the mayor of ferguson, missouri will present a petition to the

problem is. look at the traffic here on the east span. it's at a standstill. when that happens they have to turn the metering lights on extra slow so at the toll plaza we have a huge backup there and backing up around the mccarthur maze. claudine mentioned grass fire on bay point this is highway 4 near the freeway. this commit is going to be effect the by the smoke. we've heared a a couple -- we've already had a couple of different crashes on highway 4 any way. southbound 680 danville there is an accident there. there is also slow traffic on the nimitz freeway because of a couple of accidents in san leandro heading down from about the coliseum to 238. it will be slow. 5890 is a mess come -- 580 is a mess coming off the altamont pass and 680 is also very slow heading down. we have one of the commutes where you have to leave yourself a lot of extra time. almost all the commutes are off to a bad start. let's go to rosemary for

now hayward and san jose checking in at 57. here's the comparison. we know we have been running cool for this time of year but typically santa rosa is 76 degrees for the afternoon right now you are looking at 71 for today. oakland just a few degrees shy of where we typically are. oakland has been missing out on the sunshine. a lot of cloud cover over oakland. 74 for livermore. and san jose five degrees shy of the seasonal average. a few more numbers on your screen for the afternoon. 73 in concord. 71 for napa. we have 61 in san francisco. 58 degrees expected in pacifica pap today will be the coolest day. temperatures will turn around as early as tomorrow. i will have a look at the warming trend coming our way in the extended forecast in a little bit. back to sal. good morning. all right good morning to you. we do have a lot of slow traffic. the bay bridge is not good. and that is because of an earlier crash on the span. traffic is still recovering on that span. it's getting a little bit better now that the crash is

gone. you can see it slow on the upper deck. when that happens the metering lights are turned to extra slow. traffic is backed up along the mccarthur maze. 80 is backed up into berkeley. you can see it's barely moving here at the bay bridge toll plaza. the east bay in general not doing well at all. we have a crash southbound 680 in danville. we have 580 mess we have 880 a mess from earlier. so almost everywhere you look we have slow traffic here. i want to let you know that on 580 some of the speeds are way down coming in off the altamont pass here. 6:32 let's go back to the desk. now to developing news on the deadly storms that are sweeping through the southwest. the houston texas area dealing with severe weather and heavy rain at least six people have died in flash floods. this morning rescue crews out there will resume the search for 12 people reported missing in the town ofwomen berry--

wimberley. the vacation home some were staying in it was swept away. the rain left some of the rockets fans stranded. alex savidge is in the studio now with more on what they went through. alex. >> reporter: dave, good morning to you. last nights play off game between the warriors and rockets ended in regulation but then a few hundred fans face what you might call weather related overtime. a small group decided they would stay put at the arena to ride out what was a very powerful storm in houston. we have our own joe fonzi he was in the arena last night. he is joining us live on the phone. joe, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning alex. >> how are you doing? >> reporter: let's just say shelter in place is not a

terminology we hear very often in california. when they announced that to us with the game probably about three quarters over, to those of us in the press box and to the fans and they said we do not recommend that you get in your cars after the game. normally the game ends and security starts getting people out of the building. and instead of that they said you're welcome to stay as long as you like. and they started showing some pictures on the big screen of some of the neighborhoods. their biggest concern was some of the onramps and off ramps that were completely under water in some of the low lying neighborhoods and then it was pretty up up to the people in the arena to make up their mind whether to stay or brave the highway. and as you said a good portion of the crowd at first and then later by the time we left you know the two hour time difference we did some live reports for our 10:00 newscast which was starting at midnight here, 1:00 by the time we were finished and there was still a pretty good crowd. two sections within the arena

that had decided to stay there rather than go out. >> and a bit of a treat for some of the fans that stayed for this after party there at the arena because dwight howard came back out and he chatted with some folks and had a little fun. >> reporter: yeah. the rockets were doing everything in their power to make it as pallable as possible. at one point they made an announcement and said who wants to stay for breakfast and the crowd cheered and they had several of the houston stations were then doing live reports back to their stations and every time the lights would come on the people would cheer for them and then as you said dwight howard came out and mingled among the crowd and shook some hands and then the young man that was with him i assume it was his son. they lowered the basket and he was putting on a show and doing some dunking and things like that. so the rockets did everything in their power to make it kind

of a party for the people who stayed. >> and as you pointed out we haven't seen rain in california for quite some time. explain to us how intense this rain system was last night. we heard as much as ten inches came down in the houston area. what was it like for you? >> reporter: they were calling it a 100-year-old storm depending on how long it lasted. it would come down in a rate that would rival the biggest storms in record. as i look outside my hotel window we're about to go to an airport and catch a plane. there is no rain coming down now and the streets have pretty much, i wouldn't say they are dry but there is no standing water anywhere. i'm sure they know how to handle this. as we went to our car, our hotel is only six or eight blocks from the arena and it was like taking a shower with your clothes on. it was just pouring down rain as you said. the rate at which we don't often see it in california. i mean one or two good one of

these and the drought would be over. and then we had to wade through a pretty good puddle to get to our car. but then i took video with my phone. it was lightning about every 20- 30 seconds and thunder right afterward. it was so loud you could hear it in the arena. our advantage point during the game was pretty high. you could hear the thunder while the game was going on up above. and then we just kind of you know all around the west coast we don't see this thing very often. it's a light show. you open up the hotel show and watch the thunder and lightning all night. >> sounds incredible. let's talk about the warriors plans. we know they have to get back home for game five. is this severe weather going to impact the travel plans at all? >> reporter: it was a plan for both teams to leave today any way so they are not yet

delayed. their plan was to get out this morning as is our plan. and i'm watching local tv here right now and there is flooding but it isn't raining right now. we are hoping we get out along with the warriors and rockets so they can play game five tomorrow. >> all right look forward to that. be safe out there. obviously you and your photographer joe we appreciate that. that is joe fonzi our own joe fonzi live from houston. coming up at 7:00, you will hear from some of those fans that were stuck inside the toyota center following last nights playoff game. you will hear more about that unexpected sleep over they took part in there in how's to be last night because of that torrential rain. back to you. >> great update from you and joe. firefighters in vallejo investigating a suspicious fire. it started about 3:00 this morning on a home on martin street. when the firefighters got there it was engulfed in flames. the home had been vacant for 25
