It overachieved, which weve said probably i know ad nauseam here all winter long and in the spring almost every system seemed to now cold. This also snow. Incredible snow. If you did not hear the greatest single day of snow up at palisades in uc berkeleys central sierra snolab occurred on may fourth, more so than any other day during the winter, which is hard to believe, but it happened. 30s are a lot of 30s this morning on the temps, although with the nights so short, i think a lot of these are already gone by now, the systems are still moving into the north.

Israel has told tens of thousands of palestinians in the Southern Gaza city of rafah to evacuate to a humanitarian zone on the coast. The Israeli Military dropped leaflets over rafah telling people where to go. This comes ahead of an expected Israeli Military Ground Invasion of rafah, which israel says is the last significant hamas stronghold in gaza. The United Nations is warning that Israeli Offensive in rafah would mean more civilians suffering and deaths in israel. Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu marked Holocaust Remembrance Day, saying israel will continue its fight against hamas despite International Calls for a cease fire if israel is forced to stand alone, israel will stand alone. Sirens sounded across israel and people paused for two minutes to mark Holocaust Remembrance Day. Israeli leaders laid wreaths on a memorial where ashes of victims of concentration camps are buried. Our time now. 733 the city of berkeley marked Holocaust Remembrance Day with a virtual event, and some of the participants were Holocaust Survivors who described what they went through. We were arrested and sent to dachau in 1938. I like my candles in for my grandmother batya katzenstein, and her two sons, paul and, jacob and, many other relatives. Now berkeleys mayor, jesse arreguin, said recent incidents of antisemitic harassment have made this years Holocaust Remembrance Day more important than ever.

Police later found the car and learned it had been rented out of reno, nevada. So far, no arrests. Now, the second cold case is in the summer of 2021. In that case, officers say deshawn rhodes was shot and killed near brooklyn and lakeshore near lake merritt. Police say theyre looking for a man seen running in a white t shirt, and another man on a dirt bike. Detectives say that both rhodes and tejada have ties to San Francisco.

However, the report itself does say that much of the increase is because things cost more in 2023, including vacations compared to four years before the report says, quote, adjusted for inflation, travel spending in 2023 was down 14 from the peak in 2019. Even so, governor gavin newsom touted the statewide tourism spending numbers as a win in this video. He circulated on social media over the weekend. Magnificence of the San Francisco bay. What a Perfect Place to announce our record breaking tourism numbers. Now the tourism money spent varies by region here in the bay area. For example, in 2023, tourists spent 37. 7 billion, down slightly from the 39 billion spent in 2019. Theyre less busy. Before it was packed right now its not. The important thing is people are spending and you know, thats a plus, right . Hopefully its going to pick up. One bright spot in the report, it says that 98 of travel industry jobs that existed here in california before the pandemic have now returned. And the report tries to strike an optimistic tone by saying those tourism jobs should count as part of the recovery or a sign that the Tourism Sector has recovered at least for the most part in california since 2020. Live in San Francisco ali rasmus ktvu, fox two news. Thank you. Ali 738. Maybe were trying to get from oakland to San Francisco or across the peninsula.

You know what . And thats watching it from the from the privacy of your own home. Garcia. Yeah, is very good. I like that, too, good morning, everyone, lets go out and take a look at the commute in the south bay. Its beginning to get a little bit slower now as people are hitting the road. I wouldnt say it is terrible, but it is definitely going to be slower than it was even 15 minutes ago. Lets talk about some of these other commutes. Theres interstate 880 and traffic is going to be okay. There have been no major problems here. Southbound 880 though we have i dont know, i hesitate to say the commute has come undone. But look for four separate crashes between fremont and milpitas. Some of them are minor, but the backup is beginning to build. So we have been okay, but now we have a lot of slow traffic. If your drive is, lets say from hayward or san leandro or that part of the east bay down to san jose, give yourself extra time. I know its a tough its a tough ask in the morning. 751 lets bring steve back in with todays weather for is that one on 880 . Yes. Wow yeah. So its just its just not very good i can tell. Thank you sir. Whats not very good will be the Severe Weather, level five, high risk five. Rare to get that from Storm Prediction Center. The key is the low coming out of the rockies. You can see the circulation. Let me put the wind coming right out of the rockies. Then it goes out into the plains. And what happens is you get called the low level jet stream that comes out of the gulf thats carrying very high moisture content. And then you have cold air coming in off of here. And the collision of these two is going to make for a wild bad day. Probably tornadic activity, oklahoma mainly also into kansas, but especially oklahoma. They are telling people probably a good idea to stay home today, thats how severe its going to be. The low that we had is churning. You can see there thats giving snow to parts of montana, but we are on the drier side. And also the colder side had a lot of 30s this morning now seeing 40s, 50s. It doesnt take long this time of year to warm up. After the unseasonably cold system. We had on saturday, saturday afternoon, many of the temps were around 48 degrees, which is just amazing to see, for saturday. But weve rebounded from that. The dry pattern is now going to kick in for at least a bit. I dont think were done with rain though, the key though is that how much this low back tracks coming in, there will be a piece of Energy Breaking off from that. We will get a slight offshore breeze. I think the gfs is a little too bullish on that. Others are not as robust, but it will be warmer starting wednesday and thursday. Today though, looks nice. 60s on the temps to near 70. You can easily pop into 70 by the time you get to may 6th, and we will tomorrow then. Warmer weather wednesday thursday for sure. Well see how much as we go into the end of the week. Fog will be back probably by the weekend. Steve, thank you. Propalestinian protesters say theyre getting a major concession today from one Bay Area University.

A meeting of the Budget Advisory committee for the Ross Valley School district about a new contract agreement. Now last week, the School District in marin county approved a deal with the teachers union. After several weeks of negotiations, the trustees voted to approve the one year agreement. It increases salaries and Health Benefits for School District teachers. A state mediator helped to work out that agreement. In the contract talks. Also, several district employees in novato have agreed to take early retirements to help prevent layoffs. According to the marin ij, 43 employees with the novato unified School District accept an incentive to retire early. The School District says this will allow it to keep some of the Staff Members whove been laid off because of the ending of the covid era funding. Well, californias Education Department has downgraded a warning to San Francisco unified to figure out its budget. State agency downgraded its financial status from qualified to negative over concerns the School District wont be able to pay its bills during the next two fiscal years. And that means the state will closely watch the School Districts plan to close, merge and relocate schools in San Francisco over the next two years. Our time is 758.

People are going so slow anyway. But if youre driving from hayward to san jose and youre using 880, its not great. Some people are using the san mateo bridge when they get over there. Highway 92 at 101, theres a crash there right at that change. Dumbarton bridge looks like the best option. Lets talk about interstate 880. You can see northbound traffic there. Looks okay heading up toward the coliseum and that the bay bridge toll plaza, it is backed up all the way out to the maze. 801 lets get back to the headlines. So thank you. Across california, propalestine demonstrations continue on many College Campuses. At San Francisco state, student and faculty protesters expected to meet today with the universitys president , ktvu james torres is at the sf state campus to tell us about the latest on the protests there. James andre, good morning. Well, behind me, you can see what those demonstrations look like. Its really not all that different from any other campus that weve seen over the last few weeks. You see the number of tents that are pitched here, still somewhat out of the way of many students who are walking over to their classes, their final exams later this morning, while students here who are part of that demonstration say that they have successfully convinced the schools president , lynn mahoney, to come out here to the encampment later this afternoon for what they call an open bargaining session. We are asking the university to confirm that statement here. Its an example of how many Different Directions those protests could go. Very different story down in Southern California over the weekend when police went in to break down the demonstrations at usc. Thats just a few days after Police Arrested hundreds of people at ucla, closer to the bay area. Encampments at stanford and berkeley are still in place. No word on any plans from the local Police Department or from the University Officials on if they are going to target or try to break down those encampments. Campus is still shut down at cal poly humboldt, where just about a week ago, officers went in to arrest about 30 protesters that caught the attention of the American Civil Liberties union. And attorneys for the aclu sent a letter to School Administration demanding the campus be reopen and to not just visitors, but the journalists trying to cover those protests as well. According to the chronicle, the school announced that it would hold its graduation ceremonies this friday at locations off campus. Now, weve seen graduation disruptions at College Campuses across the country over this last weekend. It happened in austin and Columbia University this morning announcing that it is canceling its campus wide Commencement Ceremonies as well. Youll hear more about that coming up in just a few minutes. Uc berkeley is still planning on having its ceremonies this weekend, and sf state, well, thats not happening until closer to the end of the month. Now, the student protesters here tell me that they plan to meet with the University President later this afternoon at about 1 00. Were live this morning from San Francisco state university. Im james torres, ktvu fox two news. James, thank you. And as, of course, we heard james just mentioned a few moments ago, new this morning, Columbia University just canceled its main Commencement Ceremony, scheduled a week from this wednesday. This comes after sustained protests on that college campus. The school plans to replace a University Wide event with smaller scale celebrations there in new york. The Administration Says this decision was made after consulting with student leaders, News Agencies in new york city, reporting that security concerns were the prime reason for the change. And students at ucla are heading back to the classroom this morning to resume inperson instruction. The campus went to Remote Learning during last weeks protests and demonstrations tied to the war in gaza. More than 200 people were arrested last thursday as Police Officers in riot gear cleared out the propalestine encampment. Ucla says its created a new position to oversee campus safety. Following all the incidents last week, and Republican Leaders in the California Legislature are stepping into the political debate over the growing number of demonstrations on College Campuses to the war in gaza. They want the state to immediately end all Financial Aid for any protester found to have committed violent or criminal acts during a campus demonstration. Republican leadership also blames University Administrators across the state for not shutting down the encampments sooner. One person is dead after a shooting near oaklands lake merritt. Police responded to reports of a shooting near east 12th street and first avenue at about noon yesterday. They found a person had been shot.

Well, investigators are searching for answers after four tow trucks went up in flames in concord and bay point over the weekend. At least two of those fires are being investigated as arson. They all started early saturday morning. Security camera video captured one of the fires on summerfield drive in bay point. It shows a tow truck bursting into flames and one man getting into a car and racing away from the scene. This grainy Security Camera video shows another tow truck fire on saint clair avenue in concord, and you can see the flames and the far right corner of your screen. Theyre lining it up.

The expansion comes as state and local leaders wrangle over control of autonomous vehicles. Lawmakers are currently pushing for a bill to give local governments the power to regulate robo taxis. The bill is set for a hearing today. 807 now, the Golden Gate Bridge district is changing its Financial Plan in response to changing commuting trends. Now, the golden state bridge is currently only seeing roughly 70 of commuter traffic, and bus and ferry ridership is at about 50 of prepandemic levels, according to the marin ij. The district has come up with more than three dozen goals and plans to adjust for the postpandemic environment, and some of the goals include shifting focus from commuters to recreational travel. Time now is 807, and we do have a little improvement at the bay bridge this morning. If youre driving into San Francisco, its backing up a little bit less than it was. Although it is not completely clear. I can just tell that cars are moving through at a slightly quicker pace. Still have some slowing on highway four and 680, and also on 80. These are ordinary looking commutes, however, weve been talking about 880. Weve had several crashes on the commute heading south from fremont into milpitas. Thats improving a little bit, but its still quite a chore to drive from hayward to san jose. San jose traffic is getting a little bit busier now on all the major freeways, but thats also a very ordinary 808. Lets get back to the desk. Happening today, boeing is set to launch astronauts into space for the first time. Boeings starliner capsule is set to launch out of florida this evening at 730.

The east bay, i would say theyre gasia and andre, lets go right to it. I do see some things on the maps that are just giving me the idea that the east bay still has a little bit of slowing here, although things are Getting Better. Weve had a bunch of crashes, 101 on the peninsula. I would avoid 101 between san mateo and burlingame. Both directions. Theres a crash near peninsula avenue right there, so dont be late to your flight or anything like that. And if you dont have to be on 101, i would say 280, which is the worlds most beautiful freeway stay on 280 and avoid 101 through San Mateo County. Right now, especially north of highway 92, you know, its, i dont know that commute doesnt look great. And i, my, my, my reflex is to use 280 instead. 850. Lets bring steve back in here with todays weather, especially when youre going by Crystal Springs reservoir south, you know, very nice. You look off and its so serene and nice. Yes. Thank you sir. All right. We do have 4050. We had a lot of 30s this morning, and thats probably going to do it, this week on any of the 30s, although you never know. But i think we bottomed out today on a lot of these lows. The nights are getting so short here. 28 South Lake Tahoe. Mammoth made it to 16 this morning and flagstaff made it to 27. That that deserves a wow for this time of year. Everything is continuing to plow into the pacific northwest. Whats going to happen is the dry pattern begins. This week will be dry into probably early next week, maybe around the 22nd, 23rd. We might have our next hint of rain. Well have to see where this low that itll break off in the big strong low in the ummah if it tails back to california, stays in Northern Arizona or Southern Nevada, we will get a warm up here. The question is how much if we get an offshore breeze, but it looks pretty quiet here unless something develops from that low, maybe up in the mountains wouldnt be much though. So i mean, that was a powerhouse system. Honestly, on saturday its tough to follow that up once you get to may, but i dont think were done with rain yet. Nice monday weather. Looks good here, temperatures bumping up a little bit 60s and 70s. But by tomorrow well start to bump into the more 70s. And it looks like 80s, maybe mid 80s. Everything continues to fall into place. Steve, all that rain we had in the bay area on saturday meant record breaking snow in the sierra. Uc Berkeley Snow Lab recorded more than 26in of snow in the lake tahoe area, and a 24 hour period, the most snow in a single day for the entire season.
