mayo girl. >> green is cinco de mayo. >> thanks. i never have been able to so i'm not accustomed to wearing green. what a st. patrick's day it will be! celebrating with sunny skies, clouds right now it is clear from the coast to our inland areas. our temperatures are banking between 43 in santa rosa to 51 in oakland. it is now 53 degrees in san francisco. see that right there? that is a clear slot. that's what we're experiencing right now. but as you notice we have plenty of clouds west to the north of us so some of those clouds will scoot in, partly sunny later today but the temperatures won't be affected. mid-60s at the beaches. low 70s around the bay. mid-70s across the peninsula. then climb to the mid- and high 70s even somebody's backyard will be at 80 degrees. i have details on that plus the big change in the weekend forecast but right now let's send it over to roqui theus. >> thank you. let's start with some roadwork on eastbound 580 that's the counter-commute of the richmond/san rafael. it's between midspan and past the toll and that's until 6 a.m. if you are heading into downtown san francisco, here's a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza. those metering lights will turn on slowing you down around 5:30 but for now you're good, a 7- minute commute. heading to the peninsula between hayward and foster city traffic good in both directions on 92. >>> right now officers are trying to track down the suspects who shot a 17-year-old boy along highway 101. it happened around 7 p.m. last night near story road in san jose. all the northbound lanes were closed for several hours during the evening commute. traffic was diverted onto 280 and 680. chp says that a white dodge charger drove up to the victim's car and started firing at it. the suspects then fled. there's not much of a description but officers say that they believe two hispanic men were inside the car. >> he had stepped out at least from the car and he didn't look injured to me. then there was an ambulance that came right directly in front here that actually was there. they pulled out the stretcher and then the police were -- helped to take off his shirt and put him on the stretcher and that's when i noticed looked like there was a wound on -- near the hip area. >> here's a picture from the scene. carlos diaz sent this to us. you can see paramedics taking a stretcher to the victim. >>> there have been at least 80 shootings on bay area freeways in the past 16 months. the latest was just a week ago when a man was shot and killed on interstate 80 in richmond. >>> the man behind the kidnapping and rape once considered a hoax by vallejo pd was just sentenced to decades in prison and his victim confronted him in court. kpix 5's joe vazquez shows us what she had to say. >> reporter: for over a year if i came home alone i would grab a knife and look behind every door. denise huskins told matthew muller in open court. i have a hammer by my bed that i reach for in the worst of my nightmares. he broke into her house, tied up and drugged her boyfriend, then kidnapped denise and sexually assaulted her. prosecutors asked the judge for a 40-year sentence for a crime so twisted and bizarre that police called it a hoax that the couple still finds appall. >> they should have figured 20 minutes into this that these people were victims and the horror that these folks went through is just all about their incompetence. >> reporter: muller had pretended he was with a group of gentlemen criminals tried to convince denise he was just following orders. later wrote strange letters to law enforcement and the press. he was finally caught after a attacking another couple in dublin. at one point today denise was so emotional aaron held her up. she told muller to stop making excuses including bipolar disorder and military service. throughout the court visit - even when the judge handed him a 40 year prison sentence. it's not yet cl joe vazquez, kpix 5. >> muller was expressionless throughout the court visit even when the judge gave him a 40- year prison sentence. it's unclear if he will stand trial for other crimes in the bay area. >>> in the south bay, loved ones of missing teenager sierra lamar gathered to mark five years from the disshe disappeared going to school. they met in fremont to honor her. it's something they have done every year since the 15-year- old went missing back in 2012. despite an extensive search throughout the bay area, she has never been found. >> it's not true that it gets easier as time moves on. the angst is still there. it's still really painful because even though time goes on, you just miss your daughter. that never goes away. that's lost. >> antolin garcia-torres is now on trial in san jose charged with kidnap and murder. he pleaded not guilty on all charges. if convicted, he could get the death penalty. >>> the president has signed off on a disaster declaration for california. you can see why from "sky drone 5" here the scope of the damage remarkable. the president's decision will allow federal funding to be used for repairs. >>> time now 4:35. let's check the forecast. >> when you drive around, i drove from pleasanton to napa and when i went through vallejo, the topography has changed due to our winter storms. it's like we have wetlands in vallejo now. but we have more rain coming. it won't be anything even close to the atmospheric river conditions we experienced this past winter. good morning, everybody. as you get ready to kick-start your st. patrick's day, we have clear skies and later today we'll have blue skies not green skies but blue skies. temperature-wise we are in the 40s and 50s. it's 43 santa rosa. 47 in redwood city. it's in the mid-50s throughout the tri-valley. otherwise close to the lip of the bay into the 50s. it's now 50 in san jose. see that right there? that's a clear slot. that clear slot is what we're experiencing now but behind me here, those clouds will trickle into our forecast today and we'll call it partly sunny in the afternoon. san francisco typically 62. today forecasting 70. concord should be 66 but instead 76. numbers at the coast mid-60s partly sunny. 70s at the peninsula. 76 sunnyvale. 80 los gatos and saratoga. san jose 78. a theme here pretty much in the site of across the peninsula, santa clara valley. then to the east of the bay, high 70s so you know somebody's backyard in pleasanton will top off at 80. it will be 80 in brentwood, tracy, oakley, discovery bay through mountain house. low 70s at the delta and 73 in vallejo, benicia, martinez. 64 degrees partly sunny stinson beach, late day breeze to 15. otherwise, low 70s common from petaluma all the way into rohnert park, 73 windsor. clouds thicken in the northern reaches of the bay area with rain chances there or saturday. we'll talk more about the changing forecast but right now, i want to say top of the morning to roqui. >> oh, i wish you well. ah! it is 4:37. let's take a look at the golden gate bridge from marin county into san francisco. looking good not heavy fog which we have been dealing with all week. to the richmond/san rafael, locking good but on the bridge eastbound 580 roadwork is from midspan to past the toll plaza until 6 a.m. here's a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza heading into downtown san francisco, 7 minutes. it will slow down at 5:30 when the metering lights turn on. our slowest traffic of the morning is the altamont pass. you're moving at 50 across the way on to the dublin interchange. i'll send it to you. >> thank you, roqui. >>> the battle is already under way on capitol hill over president trump's new budget proposal. the 1.15 trillion plan includes deep cuts to the epa and state department to pay for a big boost in military spending. california gets about a third of its funding from the feds. kpix 5's emily turner explains what it could mean if the budget plan goes through. >> reporter: there is always a battle when it comes to the budget. but president trump may be in for a bigger battle than usual. >> we are sending less money on soft power, financial aid for folks overseas and more money on defense which is what the president promised when i ran for office. >> reporter: the president's budget would increase military spending by 10% at the expense every other programs. >> our strength depends on the power of diplomacy all of which are undermined by the president's budget. >> reporter: the budget would slash the environmental protection agency by 31% potentially ending a major federal effort to protect the bay. >> i just can't think of a more cruel or senseless blueprint for the country over the next four years. >> reporter: community development block grants that fund services like housing for the homeless and revitalizing decaying neighborhoods would be cut entirely. amounting to tens of millions of dollars left to the state to make up. california's prisons and county jails would no longer be reimbursed for incarcerating illegal immigrants. funding for research done on uc campuses would be cut by 20% and the national endowment for the arts which is given about $9 million to the bay area is cut. another target is public broadcasting. kqed in san francisco would lose nearly $6 million. many programs' details are under wraps as the full budget proposal won't be submitted until may. but the bargaining battling and lobbying have already begun. >> do i think we can cut spending and get waste out of government? absolutely! where and how and what numbers? that's something we'll be figuring out as time goes on. >>> the bart extension to san jose and santa clara may not happen. the president wants to eliminate federal funding for new transit projects throughout the country. the feds were supposed to contribute $1.5 billion for the extension. the president's proposal still has to go through congress so the budget plan will probably change by the time it's final. >>> white house press secretary sean spicer was confronted about the president's changing story on wiretapping claims. >> sounds like sean -- okay. >> that you and the president are saying now well we don't mean wiring tapping anymore that's not true anymore. >> no, no that's not -- [ simultaneous speakers forms of surveillance. what's it going to be next?! >> jim,

american history. >> so this case seeks to hold the board at yahoo accountable for failing to stop, prevent and disclose for over two years hacks that their own senior executives knew all about. >>
