Nato saying there are no casualties. Last night President Trump tweeting all is well. The attacks in response to a u. S. Strike that killed irans top military general. Now we have older photos of the Al Asad Air Base from our bay area assignment editor who was stationed there during his service. He said the base is very large and that may be why there are no casualties reported so far. In the ten months i was there and this is in a time when we had a lot more troops there than we do now, not one piece of artillery ended up within the base itself. No martars, nothing pen rate penetrated the base and this is from insurgents in iraq trying to attack us. It is one of at least two air bases that iran hit with air strikes yesterday. Hundreds of American Forces in iraq are stationed there. Again no official word on casualties so far. Richard engle is in erbil, iraq, with more. Reporter good morning. From a wetter bill, things are looking better than last night. Last night we could hear the attack. This is one of two locations targeted. A base here housing american personnel targeted by those iranian Ballistic Missiles and a base in western iraq. Now according to the iraqi government, no indication so far that there were any iraqi or american casualties. Iran is making a big deal of this saying this was its decisive revenge that this was the response for the american killing of its top general. Trans saying t it. That it is over but were waiting to see how President Trump will react with statements coming up later this morning. Back to you in the bay area. Indeed, richard, everyone waiting to see what will happen in washington. Now after an incident like this, security on the minds of people here at home including bay area agencies across the spectrum. Today in the bays bob redell working on that part of the story. Good morning. Reporter good morning, scott. We have no indication that local transit or Law Enforcement are doing anything drastically different. We have reached out to b. A. R. T. , local police, still waiting to hear back. We just heard from the Golden Gate Bridge district and the spokesperson told us the Golden Gate Bridge is always on high alert and we spoke with the duty manager at sfo who tells us there is no change in races at the airport but did point out that Law Enforcement there is aware of what is going on in iran and hence a little bit more alert. The department of Homeland Security this weekend issued a security bulletin letting u. S. Citizens know they are working with federal, state, local and private sector partners in case anything were to come up that they would coordinate with them to increase security. Take a look at this tweet. This is from our Law Enforcement friends down in Southern California. This is a tweet from a Los Angeles County Sheriffs Office urging everyone to stay vigilant as a result of that counter attack by iran last night. And im quoting here, the sheriff writing know what is going on around you and if you see anything out of place please do not assume someone else called to report an incident. If he see it, call 911. The same comment applies up here in northern california. In millbrae, bob redell, today in the bay.

This took place according to the victim when she was walking to school.

Now deputies were able to locate the man in his car within a mile of the campus here in sonoma in a matter of hours. Now the suspect is in custody and off the street but there is still a sense of worry for parents. It is ridiculous and it is work now, knowing that anything could happen.

Now we do know that President Trump approved fema aid overnight and some compelling stories of people helping other people and pets. That story coming up on today. Back to you guys. Were looking over here toward the south bay. Folks, well have a new crash. We have two spots. The first one is the crash north 101 at the 87 merger. We see it slowing by sjc. In the middle of the freeway for 101 could cause a backup if they dont clear it e south bay gentle build. This week the commute has restored but not if full force. We still see slowing across the san mateo bridge and the build out of hey word toward union city for the nimitz southbound.

But the rain will most likely be earlier in the day and may continue into the start of the 49ers game at levi stadium. Expect the temperatures to reach only about 56 degrees so whether it is raining or not, you do still need warm clothing.

Youre watching today in the bay. Trump obamacare is a complete and total disaster. Let obamacare implode. Nurse these wild attacks on healthcare hurt the patients i care for.

Vo mayor bloomberg helped lower the number of uninsured by 40 , covering 700,000 more new yorkers, Life Expectancy increased. He helped expand Health Coverage to 200,000 more kids and upgraded pediatric care infant mortality rates dropped to record lows. And as mayor, Mike Bloomberg always championed Reproductive Health for women. So when you hear Mike Bloomberg on health care. Mrb this is america. We can certainly afford to make sure that everybody that needs to see a doctor can see a doctor, everybody that needs medicines to stay healthy can get those medicines. Nurse you should know, he did it as mayor, hell get it done as president. Mrb im Mike Bloomberg and i approve this message. Right now at 6 45, as you head out of the door in the east bay, the fog holding off for now. As we see more clouds overhead in fremont into the b. A. R. T. Station, 48 degrees. Low 50s expected by this afternoon with peeks of sunshine and rain returning tonight. So well talk more about that coming up in less than five minutes.

A Sunnyvale Police officer we talked with said thieves were working night and day.

Reporter now here is the map of all of the cities with clusters of breakins just in the last few days sunnyvale and palo alto and the willow glen neighborhood. Police did arrest two alleged car thieves, a 16 and 19yearold found in a solen car. They are believed to be connected to the sundale area in fremond are investigating other reports and now looking at the same duo to see if they are connected to the burglaries in san jose. This week in palo alto three men were arrested along with two connection with eight car breakins reported on monday alone. Palo alto police say there have been dozens over the last few weeks. And on monday i was in san joses willow glen neighborhood reporting on a dozen smashandgrabs that happened on a stretch of stoke street just about the length of a football field. Here a neighbor told me that it happens so often to her that police advised her to leave her car unlocked to save the expense of replacing another broken window. A reminder, dont leave your valuables in your car and park in a welllet area but at the end of the day some of the folks who did that were victims again as well. In sunnyvale, kris sanchez, today in the bay. Just into the newsroom, a sweeping plan by the governor to address the states homeless crisis.

Warriors fans, new proof steph curry on the mend. He is once again using his left hand during shootarounds in practice. This is not practice video. This is the time that he broke his hand four games into the season which led to surgery and three months of recovery. So you look at math here, were talking the end of january. But there is still no concrete date set for his return. Many would argue there is still time for the warriors to make a playoff run so maybe your chance to get some Chase Center Tickets while they are still relatively cheap. Ive heard theyre very inexpensive. I want to go. I want to go as well. Meanwhile, there is a game this weekend. Some little game going on. At levi. Yeah, that is the possibility that we have for saturday for the 49ers game. And weve seen a quick wave of showers moving through earlier this morning but now starting to dry out. Here is a live look outside in san jose as the clouds part for a beautiful nice. Throughout the day well see a mix of sun and clouds. The kids up and ready for school in the trivalley, in pleasanton expect the start in the mid40s today. And partly cloudy skies. Well see the sun peeking out and temperatures reaching up to 54 degrees as the last school bell rings. Eventually we make it up to 58 in livermore. 56 in oakland. And 58 a high in santa rosa. And another round of rain coming in so if you didnt get the rain overnight, there is another better chance of some rain but it will be light. So looking at today, there still may be spotty showers along the coast but elsewhere well see dry weather. And then we take it into tomorrow morning at this time where we start to see the rain moving in. It quickly makes its way across the bay area so tomorrow mornings commute is sloppy. But at least by noon were seeing the rain chances going down. And the evening commute for tomorrow is looking much better. On friday were dry as we start out our weekend. And with this next round of rain, were only looking at about a tenth to a quarter inch of rain. Maybe a little bit higher farther to the north in spots like ukiah where we reach a half inch of rain. For sierra snow, well see light snow showers throughout the weekend. From about two to eight inches of snow. It looks much better for a snow total for next week. Look at our next several storm systems coming in between monday and wednesday. We could see possibly another foot to possibly two feet of snow. So some good news there. As we see some off and on showers in our forecast, once again pretty much rain every other day. So we have rain on thursday, again on saturday, and then again on monday. But were not seeing any strong storms in this rain and it will not last long. As we head over to mike, youre updating the crash in san jose. And i did notice you have rainy days and monday. Sounds like a song. A mostly good commute around the bay area. North 101 is not the problem, it is north 87. That is the update. Chp said 87 where the crash blocks one lane approaching 101 still by the airport by 101 moving smoothly and that does bear most of the commute through the area. We are looking at the rest of the boy. A typical pattern. A crash from the north 101 north of san mateo bridge. Ill let you know and tweet it and alert you if there is a problem in the next few minutes. Meanwhile a build to walnut creek toward the without any drama and recovery of traffic heading south past that crash at barrett and toward the bay bridge much more easily and folks are not using the Richmond Bridge as an alternate any more.
