the top stories we are looking at.is planned on a body found last night on a uc berkeley campus. it is believed a man in his 20s fell off a hill and slammed into a large rock. university police say that man was not affiliated with the university. >>> new research is out questioning the price spikes and that report will be presented at a hearing in san francisco. now it says west coast had plenty of oil during a time when they went up because of reported shortages. >>> and in san francisco, police say a woman driving a jeep perry -- cherokee which slid into a man walking his bike and then it slammed into another elect calling box -- electrical box. that woman was arrested for dui. >>> it happened on lakeshore avenue. police say the boy was walking with his mother when he ran into the street and was hit. the driver of the van is cooperating with police and witnesses say it is a dangerous area for kids. >> the speed limit is 65 but it's too fast. >> it appears the child ran from the curb into oncoming traffic and the driv

we are going to take a look at the forecast to see how things are looking out there. >> are we going to get increases in those temperatures anytime soon? >> hey, tom. >> we'll take any increase we can get. a lot of cloudiness. thin spots in the cloud cover. there's a live view from the nbc 4 hd city camera showing the gray sky over washington on this 15th day of november. this is coming from the south. there's a disturbance producing rain. it will stay south of us. a few clouds from that. under the clouds, we are in the 40s. low to mid-40s around the metro area and the suburbs. farther south and east, mid-40s. 50 later this afternoon. now a few peeks of sun may come out in the afternoon hours. by dawn tomorrow, under a partly cloudy sky and sun back in the mid-50 z. lots of sun saturday with afternoon highs in the low 50s. more of the same on sunday. right now, it appears the coastal system we have been discussing may be farther out to see. we are going to be dry. the track changes farther west. the trend is for it to be dry. back to you. >> thank you. >>> danella is standing by. wha

let's show you a good looking shot at san francisco. we're looking pretty good. shower activity for the most part has pushed into the south bay. however, we're still getting some pretty heavy rain from time to time along the peninsula. you want to give yourself plenty of section straw time. let's find out if this wet weather is impacting your drive so far. the man who knows, our own mike. >> we've had a number of accidents reported. the bay bridge. the puddles and slick conditions. getting crowded as well. the map shows you the city side. there's a little flooding getting off of the bay bridge. i've circled 101 at the 280 interchange where there's a disabled car. as well as reports of a car fire. taking another 20 minutes to clear. the green highlights through the area shows you where there's smooth conditions. now, an accident, 280 at 380. may cause an issue just as you approach the connector. activity moving to the shoulder without any further incidents. south 101. they just cleared the sig alert status. activity still on the shoulder. we had two incidents caus

here's the other way to look at the same country paul was looking at. mccain numbers for romney gets him 179 electoral votes, 22 states. throw in indiana, north carolina, florida, which i think romney's got florida, virginia, that's the close one right there, and don't forget nebraska is one. obama got one in nebraska. that goes romney. that's 248. after 248, if he gets colorado, new hampshire and wisconsin, he's the next president of the united states. of course, if he gets ohio, it's even a bigger margin. all those states are absolutely possible. every one of the states is possible. >> did you just say if your aunt had a mustache we would call her your uncle? >> yes. >> i got to think about that. [ speaking simultaneously ] >> quickly, your gut? >> my gut says pepto bismol. i don't think anyone knows right now, it's so close. you look at ohio, republicans typically go two percentage points over what the polls say, democrats typically goes two points behind. that puts them 49-49 in ohio. that comes down to the ground game. >> we'll take a quick break.

it looks like the prices are heading in the direction that we're all looking for, down. and perhaps all the way through this year into the early part of next year. if you would like to pay a little more because you think this gas station the issue better quality gas by all means, cross. gas prices are falling across the country because one of we are now producing a winter blend of which it is fair lot cheaper than the sum of line. it obviously makes the prices go over and nose months. plus the summer driving season is over. demand is down and that is reason to buy gas prices are going down. the no. 3 reason is refineries. they are taking off line many during the summer months when we saw what happened at the chevron and richmond refinery. they are now producing at full capacity and that is included in to the supply area. sandy even though was horrible what happened to the east coast sandy is playing a role in gas prices dropping. people are not driving as often sell on average they use about 8.5 million bar. of gasoline and oil in the east coast. because of sandy that dr

what you're looking at is a truck. this truck is the third car a 12-year-old took in order to get away. police say the 12-year-old started in wayne county, where he stole his parents' van. went to another county, ditched that car, stole another one. then ditched the second car, and the third one, police started following him. >> look through the back window of the truck, you don't see a driver. it was like a ghost driver. nobody there. >> think about it, he's going 60 to 65 miles per hour in 30 mile an hour zones. it's raining. you can see they are using a stop stick to stop the kid and a cop has to jump out of the way so he doesn't get hit. this is how the chase came to a conclusion. see here they throw out more stop sticks and then he swerves. you can see to the left the truck spins out and into the mud. then an officer and a police dog go after him. >> geez. almost an extra layer of carefulness that you want to use in this kind of situation. >> after it was all over, the dad did say the night before he had been watc

. >> how is the weekend looking? >> and is looking all right. temperatures are going to be down. pretty close to what we would expect. the have to remember this as autumn. in little disturbance here yesterday this rain was down and the carolinas and there's more of it. coming up in the area around the day, and little bit and calvert county, a little bit of a sprinkle and a shower activity. most of it will skip areas around the bay and go over the delmarva. we will see a bit more sun once we get past lunchtime. that will help of the cool temperatures. now we want to see what the traffic is like. sarah caldwell. >> good morning. not dealing with any incidents we did have the continued closure and this city and to water main break repairs. and then of course dealing with closures on charles street. near 21st street. along of falls road near lafayette avenue, closures remain in effect until sunday at 3:00 for debris removal. only local traffic can get by. rest of the major roadways fairing well. 11 minutes on the outer loop. here is a quick live look a traffic. we will check some of

how are we looking now? >> we are still looking pretty pad on 101. there is a car fire and a crash northbound 101 at candle stick. car ran into the back of a garbage truck there and there are minor injuries but it's a mess. the two lanes blocked there. northbound 101 is very slow getting into san francisco. i would use 280 instead if you can do it to get into the city. also looking at the bay bridge toll plaza we started early this morning at 6:00 those metering lights went on. i think people well you know they got up early had an extra hour of sleep. got on the road early. but right now the traffic is busy. and if you're driving on northbound 280 in san jose that looks good. the silicon valley commute is off to a decent start. let's go to steve. >>> all right, sal. mostly cheer skies. a little bit of patchy fog. everybody says sunshine and warm temps. possible records 88 is the forecast high in santa cruz today. although the record is 90. if you were here in 1976 you know that was an extreme dry air. cooling begins on wednesday. and then a big chang
