water temps are on the cool side. still running cool to very warm in the bay. a lot of fog. that's going to burn off a little sooner today. some fog cooler lows but sunny and nice, mild to warm. it will be hot for some. there will be 90s. a lot of 80s inland. 60s, 70s, coast and bay. 80 in emeryville. that's cleared up a little bit. we've had a couple of other things pop up. good morning. let's go to the bay bridge toll plaza and start there. it's been kind of heavy there coming into the city. but things are improving if you have to get in and you want to use the 880 ramp down to the bay bridge toll plaza. that would be pretty good for you. in fact, the bay bridge is one of the better bridges crossing the bay. i will explain in a moment. let's take a look at 880 -- look at 880. dumbarton bridge, do you use the dumbarton bridge? you might want to reconsider that because there's a crash eastbound 84 at university. it's affecting traffic on the dumbarton bridge heading all the way across. this is an unexpected delay for

you. you need to give yourself plenty of extra time if you use the dumbarton bridge. even the san mateo bridge might be a better call for you right now. it is going to be a little bit slow. but at this point, it's much better. breaking news out of berkeley, five people are dead. eight others seriously hurt after a fought-floor apartment balcony collapsed. cute fox 2 reporter alex savidge is live at the scene with -- ktvu fox 2 reporter alex savidge is live at the scene. such a sad story. >> reporter: a tough one in berkeley. good morning to you. officials in ireland do confirm that all five of the people killed in this morning's collapse were students, college students from ireland who were here in the u.s. on temporary visas. we understand from neighbors that what was happening was a 21st birthday party inside this fourth floor apartment building where the balcony collapsed at about 12:30 this morning.

these are the library gardens apartments in downtown berkeley, just about a block off shaddock avenue. now, we did hear from one person who lives in this building. they told us they called police and building security about an hour or so before this collapse to complain about this party that was taking place in this unit, what was described as a very loud, out of control party. police are investigating what the young victims were doing before the collapse. how many people may have been on the balcony before it gave way. we're also hearing police radio calls. >> 2020 kittridge street, 2020 kittridge street. one of the balconies break and at least ten people fell from the second or third floor. >> reporter: when police got here, they found that fourth floor balcony had toppled on the balcony below it on the

parents. it was becoming a very unhealthy culture. parents and the teachers union reacted to how the district is handling the situation. >> i just -- it's very disrespectful. these are the people who take care of our kids. they work so hard. they were told on the last day of school. >> we feel that just -- moving the principal and working with the teachers and -- throughout the year would have been a better process than doing what they are going through right now. >> reporter: the school's principal has already been reassigned and the up in one was introduce -- and the new one was introduced. those not interested in reapplying will be transferred. they plant to interview current and new teachers through june 30th and will announce personnel changes soon after but there's still some confusion among the parents. they would like more

you know who killed me? these posters show a couple of oakland's old cases. the police and family members of some of the victims they unveiled them yesterday in the fruitvale neighborhood near the spot of oakland's 46th homicide last year. the families hope witnesses will come forward. >> i'm just asking pleading, begging with someone if you know something, please come forward. >> and then maybe we can bring these families a little bit of peace to know that the person who took their loved one is being held accountable for their actions. >> oakland police wouldn't tell us how many cold cases they have but say there are too many. they have funding from the fbi so they are setting up a website where these posters can be seen. 7:37. some people living near san pedro elementary school in san rafael are demanding safety improvements along a nearby section of road where a young teenaged jogger was hit and

new light rail cars to its fleet before the end of next year. the trains are also designed to carry bicycles. the mayor is one of several city leaders taking part in the muni challenge promising to ride muni for the first 22 days this month so they can get a better idea of what it is like to use the transit system on a daily basis. 8:18. hey, sal, you are seeing challenges on our commute this morning all over the place. >> yeah. got that kind of later in the -- got bade later in the commute -- got bad later in the commute. the traffic will be busy at the bay bridge toll plaza. it's improving. in fact, that's the best bridge to cross the bay which is slightly unusual. the san mateo bridge is busy. the dumbarton bridge i would advise not using it. we had trouble there. let's take a look at some of the other commutes we have. this is 880, it's beginning to get slow past the coliseum driving north. 88 is vo head -- 880 is slow

heading south. southbound 880 is slow out of hayward heading down into fremont. the dumbarton bridge is not good and 237 is also pretty slow on the way to sunnyvale. let's go to steve in the forecast. all right, sal. a couple of things going on. one of them is tropical storm bill, which is making landfall, if not near port o'conner pretty close. flooding has begun along the texas gulf coast. some of the feeder bands working their way in. it will be raining for many here. some of this will be extremely heavy rain as it moves up toward dallas/fort worth, probably to the east of oklahoma city right toward st. louis and eventually toward indianapolis. we still have heart attack carlos off the coast of mexico -- we still have hurricane carlos off the coast of mexico. it will maintain strength and head into the sea of cortez or go parallel toward the end of the week. keep an eye on that. i don't think it will take the same path as plaun cau did

which gave us rain last wednesday -- as blanca did, gave us lane last wednesday. had a few 40s up in the north bay this morning. the delta breeze is the key. yesterday 25. gusts to 30. today it's only 12. had 30s up in truckee. 60s, 70s through the valley. 50s up and down the coast. water temps did cool off 1, 2 degrees in the last 24 hours. around 57, 58 monterey and half moon bay. now 56, 55. it's already spokein' hot down in the southeast. georgia and south carolina, north carolina looking for record heat today. 88 in atlanta. 91 in washington. the key is tropical storm bill which will be playing into a lot of rain as it moves into the texas coast and eventually it will head to the northeast over the next few days.

for us, fog gives way to sunshine. higher clouds might come in. if they do, now you know where they are from. a little warmer for inland temps. about the same to a slight warmup for those that are near the coast and bay. yesterday its what was held down. 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. you are far enough away, you will get the 90s. if you are closer to the coast, you will get the 60s. 91 in brentwood. 80s for many that were in the 70s yesterday for the east bay. same for san jose, santa clara valley, 70s, 80s to near 90 for gilroy. but 60s on the coast. 67 san bruno. 70s, upper 70s for some. about the same, a little warmer. a little cooldown on thursday. we're kind of about average. >> yesterday was below? >> not much change. day to day. 8:21. you heard steve, rain from tropical storm bill, it's now falling in the houston, texas

area. in fact, just the leading edge of the storm is over the gulf coast. it's expected to fully move onshore as this day moves on. forecasters say this could drop as much as 8 inches of rain in the next couple of days. in this particular part of texas still recovering from all of the flooding that happened over the memorial day weekend. >> that's right. 8:22. teachers and staff at a south bay school told they all need to reapply for their jobs. in 21 minutes, why the school is leaving parents in the dark over why this is happening. watch your mouth. we are where cursing in public could get you into trouble. who is cracking down on profanity and how much it could cost you.

the grass fire in the los altos hills burned dangerously close to holes. the flames were reported just before 5:00 last night along 280 near magdalena avenue. crews from the santa clara fire department attacked the grass fire on the ground and calfire made waterdrps from the air. about three acres burned. no word on what started the fire. california may be in an exceptional drought but that will not stop the fireworks this 4th of july. most venues will have fireworks shows, the contra costa times

reports. the pyro spectaculars puts on a majority of the shows in the bay area. they've had only one cancellation in northern california which was cupertino. that was after the city was told it would need to provide 100,000 gallons of water to prep for the show. >> that's a lot of water. >> yes, it is. they are cauking down on cursing in public in arlington, virginia. if you do it, it will cost you. police are pushing bar patrons to watch their mouth after they've been drinking. the penalty has been raised for public intoxication and profanity to $250. some of the people there don't like it. >> freedom is expression. stop putting a blank on what we're supposed to say. i don't like it. >> usually here for happy hare but i don't see people getting that wasted. >> last year, arlington county police made 664 arrests for drunken people cursing in public. that's when the penalty was

still $100. still ahead, a plan plan to leaf up the police department. after the break, the reason some city leaders say extra police are needed. investigators here in berkeley trying to figure out what caused a balcony at this apartment complex to give way early this morning during a birthday party leaving five people dead. eight others critically hurt. we'll tell you what we're learning about the young victims in this case -- coming up. and on the east bay commute, we do have a lot of slow traffic still remaining. highway 24 is a little bit slow now in rafeh yet and orinda. orinda -- in la fayette and orinda.

welcome back. thank you for joining us. these are live pictures. we're back at the scene of our breaking news. a deadly balcony collapse in berkeley. five people visiting from ireland died this morning. several others were hurt. coming up in two minutes, ktvu's alex savidge, who has been out there all morning, he will let you hear the police radio calls from this morning and also bring you reaction from ireland's foreign affairs office to this tragedy in berkeley. it's tuesday, it's june 16th. i'm dave clark. let's talk about your weather and traffic. steve paulson has the latest from the forecast. >> warm inland. coast and pay, still dealing with plenty of low clouds and fog. that should burn off sooner as well. we had a little dip in the jet stream. that allowed cooler weather to make it all the way out to the delta. there's still plenty of fog. inland areas that had fog

yesterday don't today. there will be plenty of low clouds and fog not only after after it burns off today but i think most of the weekthe inland emits will come up. 50s, come -- week. the inland temps will come up this week. the breeze is 1, 14. yesterday, it was around 21, 30. that's a big difference to see that much of a decrease. yet, coast and bay. a lot of that june gloom. a lot of high clouds. southern part of the branch coming up from hawaii. some fog, pretty thick for spots. it will burn off for those away from the coast. 80s and 90s for some. 60s, 70s, by the water. all right, sal. been pretty busy here. what's front and center here? >> the dumbarton bridge is not good. want to remind you about that. we'll talk about that in just a moment. but right off the top, if you are going to the dumbarton bridge, probably not a good idea to use that. but i also want to show you slow traffic on 880.

it's slow past the coliseum. it continues to slow all the way up into downtown oakland. now, we're also looking at the bay bridge toll plaza, which not too bad. as far as bay bridge toll plaza commutes go, this is about a 10, 15-minute delay. then you get on the bridge. san mateo bridge is also not too bad if you are driving on westbound 92, but you will see some slow traffic on highway 101 heading south. the dumbarton bridge is not doing well. we had earlier issues there on the east palo alto side. that's still not good. i would avoid it if i were you. 237 if you are in between the two, you might want to think about 237 instead. now at 8:3 2. back to the desk. continuing coverage of the breaking news from berkeley. five people are dead, eight others were hurt. and in the hospital. after an apartment apartment building balcony collapsed early this morning. alex savidge joining us live at the scene. we know many of the victims were from ireland visiting and that the irish government is involved in helping the

families of the victims. alex? >> reporter: right. good morning to you. the irish government is trying to reach all of the victims' family members right now to let them know what's taken place. obviously, that's a difficult process at this point. we do understand this balcony collapsed right in the middle of a 21st birthday celebration takes place in morning at an apartment on the north floor of this building here in -- here in downtown berkeley. you can clearly tell which unit we're talking about. it's the one where the balcony is gone. it collapsed and toppled down onto the balcony just below it. now, neighbors tell us there was a party going on. at the library gardens apartments here. it's a block off shattuck avenue on kittridge street. we've seen some young people showing up dropping off flowers here at this scene. police are exactly what they were doing before the collapse and are trying to figure out why the balcony gave way. we did speak to someone person

in the city that's so desperate for a won. they haven't won anything since 1965 when the cleveland browns won their last championship here. it's been a heartbreak for them. they were feeling pretty confident then but they are still stuck on the same number. warriors have won two since then. now there is the kind of feeling of almost desperate hope, kind of despair -- i'm hearing so much conversation about -- well, we've got lebron. they don't say they have much else. >> dave clark pointed out two of the cavs' best players, kevin love and kyrie irving are out. that's putting more pressure on lebron james. >> reporter: yes, it is. that's the -- that's a pretty well-documented storyline. his supporting cast has been injured and it's kind of -- he doesn't like to take as many

because of tension between the administration and teachers and parents. >> i think continuing to meditate some of the things that are culturally going on, we don't feel we can do that. and we don't want it to impact the kids. one way we -- the only way to figure out to do it is to do a restart for the school. >> i think it's crazy. zwrnkt the school's principal has -- >> reporter: the school's principal has been reassigned. the district plans to introduce current and new teachers through june 30th and will announce personnel changes soon of a but this whole situation has still left some parents with an unsettling feeling because they don't know who is staying and who is leaving.

level. we have seniors who were struggling. we have a lot of homeless individuals who were here. crime unfortunately is still in our community and we have to co less and work with other local government like our local law enforcement as well in order to address it. >> i wish you success with this. we don't have a whole lot of time. i know there will be public hearings about this. people can talk about this. we've been hosting public hearings. we formally start -- a lot of the individuals who will feel the pain come and help us to make the decision. keep in mind, we still have responsibility in dollars to save for our retirement for the employees there. we still have a $16 million bill for building a new hospital public hospital, meet our seismic requirement. we have outstanding debt on the coliseum we own. we have to pay our creditors as well as provide these services.
