Else there is going for the cold. Im cold. No doubt. Well check back with him in a bit. We want to check in with meteorologist kari hall and get a look at whats going on. Colder temperatures this morning. Yes, cold again, another morning with near freezing temperatures for parts of the bay area. So you watch out the door, you will want to head back in for more layers. Here is a live look in san jose. This starts out with clear skies. As we go throughout the day we will be in the mid 50s by 10 00 and quickly seeing those temperatures warm up into the upper 60s today. Thats going to be above normal for this time of year. 69 degrees in downtown san jose and also in concord and napa. 63 today in oakland and in San Francisco. We will talk about a rainfall deficit thats coming up in just a few minutes. Mike, you were saying theres still more problems around the san mateo bridge. Thats right. First of all, we had the motorcycle crash mid span, we didnt get the all clear from the chp or bridge crew but did see traffic start to move. San mateo bridge is slow along that flat section. Now, some more folks have hit through the hayward area and may have shifted through the dumbarton bridge as an alternate and in that theres a crash south 880 at industrial parkway blocking lanes there. On the peninsula the other side of the san mateo bridge we have a crash north 101 around broadway slowing you in towards San Francisco. We will give you a bigger look coming up. To the latest developments out of florida this morning. Thats where people are still trying to grasp with what unfolded there this week after the death of 17 people in a shooting rampage. This as investigators now say the suspect has confessed. Last night thousands attended a vigil in parkland. They remembered the victims including a football coach, a future College Swimmer and a National Merit scholarship finalist. The devastation felt by an entire city and the calls from School Leaders for change. Now is the time for us to enact some common sense gun laws in this country. Investigators are revealing more about the 19yearold suspect. They say he took an uber to the school he once attended with a legally purchased Assault Rifle hidden in a duffle bag. The suspect is now on suicide watch. President trump is expected to visit parkland tomorrow. Happening today, many Tamalpais High School students will march after school to raise awareness. The students against begun violence had a vigil last night. They say they plan to turn their sadness into action. Write your could think men, write your senators. Do something. Okay . Like we are we are like teenagers and we still can make such a difference. Its sad and i cant imagine what its like for the families. Those students want stricter gun control laws. Happening today parents will rally at a south Bay High School against the construction of portable classrooms. They say it will just add more students to a campus thats already busting at the seams. Sharon katsuda is live at Don Callejon School. They say its not just about overcrowding but they say about equality. Reporter good morning. Yes, thats right. About equality theyre saying and this rally is expected to start in a couple of hours. Some parents contacted the nbc bay area Investigative Unit saying they believe the district is overcrowding this school to keep test scores higher at the districts other middle school. Parents at Don Callejon School say instead of putting more portables on their campus the district should open enrollment at our middle schools and pay for the busing for students to get them there. They say by overcrowding one campus they are failing to meet the needs of underperforming students and they are accusing the district of doing this on purpose as a way to keep test scores higher at other campuses. For some reason they are choosing to make the student population at Don Callejon Middle School their density to be almost ten times that of the student population density at the highest performing school. There is a 200 person wait list at peterson. I say why is there a wait list because they have all kinds of property to put portables on. Shouldnt everybody had portables, especially if they have more space. Reporter here is a look at santa claras unified student density. At Peterson Middle School there are 18 students per acre compared with don callejon which has 134 students per acre. Buchser has 32 and cabrillo has 37. They say about the portables, quote, this was not an easy decision for the board to make, however, the sentiment expressed by the board was to avoid displacing students to middle school sites further away from their homes and felt this was the best and most fair interim solution. The district is planning to build more campuses by 2020. Im sharon katsuda, today in the bay. California lawmakers including several from the bay area are introducing measures aimed to better protect renters from evictions. If the measures eventually pass, landlords would face tougher thresholds to evict, requiring them to present just cause. The tenants would have more opportunity to meet rental commitments before facing eviction. Another bill would extend ellis act eviction notice period to a full year. Thats from the current 120 days. At 6 06 now to the olympics where fears of norovirus came true for the swiss ski team. This is heart breaking turn for those athletes, one of them fabian bosh who became an internet sensation at the sochi games after this right here. Many of you have probably seen t thats him hanging on tout outside rail of an escalator as he rides it all the way up to the top. Today in the bays Garvin Thomas live in pyeongchang. There were some unexpected results as well for team u. S. A. , garvin. Reporter thats right, laura. One of the Amazing Things about the olympics is not just the level of competition, but just how much there is of it. There was a moment last night, the very same moment nathan chen was skating on the ice Mikaela Shiffrin was skiing down the slalom course. Both had a disappointing importance, but that doesnt matter, the olympics just keep chugging along. Next up we have an appearance of one of the superstars of skiing in prime time tonight, that of course lindsey vonn. Vonn has won more world cup races than any woman in history, but hasnt competed in an olympics in eight years after injuries kept her out of sochi. Now, she skis the superg in prime time tonight and then later in the week she goes for downhill gold. Now, competing in her first ever olympics is Kendall Wessenberg of modesto. They say she is most likely the first winter olympian ever from that Central Valley city. She played soccer growing up, saw skeleton for the first time in the 2010 olympics, thought it looked cool and gave it a shot for the first time just a few years later. It worked . Yes, it worked all right. I guess so, huh . Do you pinch yourself sometimes . I a little bit. Especially the last couple weeks because it has been processing where we get the fun gear and moving into the liech village and getting up here and theres cameras at the track, usually its a couple parents and coaches and no one around so its been pretty entertaining today. Reporter the first two heats of skeleton had just wrapped up moments ago and kendall is in 17th place, she has the final two races early tomorrow morning california time and her family would have to get up early to watch, but im not sure theres anyone left back home. Kendall has an entourage of 25 people who have traveled to south korea to watch her. You heard kendall talk about how strange it was having all the cameras around. One of the joyce of covering these olympics is covering these athletes in sports that dont get a lot of coverage or a lot of Media Attention and they are so thrilled to be here and have this whole experience, its great to see how much they enjoy the whole thing. Good. They should get that limelight. They worked so hard for this. They are olympians. You work hard for something you want to show it off. Thank you, garvin, for all of that. Here is the latest medal count for you right now. Norway is in first with 19 medals, germany has 15, canada and the netherlands 13 each. U. S. A. Sitting at eight. And as we approach 6 10 i want to show you the weather in pyeongchang and compare this to squaw valley. Both of them are in the 20s this morning. Actually its late friday night in pyeongchang. Its 6 09 here. As we get a look at our rainfall deficit and how were doing, we are going to see still some very dry weather over the next few days and this is a major concern as much of the bay area right now only at 48 for san jose, for the total amount of rain we have received for the water year. While we do have some percentages up to about 69 up in oakland, its only 53 in santa rosa. We will talk more about whats ahead and also a look at squaw valley coming up. Mike, you said there is a Traffic Alert issue. Thats right. Kari, this friday is becoming a problem for many commuters on both sides of the bay. Look, overall a lot of great speeds showing up here but problems first the Traffic Alert issued for north 101 coming into burlingame at broadway. So thats just north of the san mateo bridge. As folks come across or head up the peninsula towards San Francisco. A lot of slowing, two lanes are blocked by this crash. Possible injuries as well as maybe a leak of some fluid on the roadway, thats one complication. South 880 the other side at industrial it looks like they may have cleared this crash from lanes, we are watching slowing on the san mateo bridge as well. A crash in san jose was cleared to the shoulder for slowing just north of 880 on highway 101. A lot of people have been talking about it, a historic premiere. This is a whole new ball game. Yeah, blasting through records at the box office. Black panther has everyone talking this morning. The impact this historic film is already having here locally coming up in a live report. I got my ticket. Now, in tech we trust . Maybe not so much. We will take a look when today in the bay continues. Even if no one in your home smokes, Secondhand Smoke can be closer than you think. Secondhand smoke from a neighbors apartment can enter your home through air vents, through light fixtures and even through cracks in the walls and the floors. Secondhand smoke is toxic. Especially to children. Protect your family. Visit tobaccofreeca. Com. 6 14 now on this friday morning. And the sun is starting to rise over the sierra. Its a beautiful start, but a very chilly one there at squaw creek at 17 degrees. Today theyre heading up to 46. Now, as you pack to head to the sierra, make sure you bring those tire chains because we will start to see that snow coming down on sunday with the possibility of getting four to eight inches of new snow. We will talk about whats ahead for the bay area. We are in for some changes, too. Thats coming up in five minutes. Were still tracking the Traffic Alert on the peninsula north 101 really jammed up north of the san mateo bridge. 280 is a quicker route, easier route getting into San Francisco if thats an alternate for you. We will track slowing on the other side of the bay. And the stock market on another winning streak. Makes up for some of those losses. The dow gained another 306 points it will open above 25,000 today. None of the fears that caused the dip recently have gone away, but here we are. Jcpenney says its going to close stores, only one in california down near san diego. Bitcoin not really a stock but wanted to mention it, it briefly rallied above 10,000. A new survey by edelman shows more than twothirds of the people who live in the bay area think the Tech Industry is underregulated. Tech was allowed to run pretty free during the obama years and thats really turning around. Donald trumps nominee for the federal trade commission has said he will take a special interest in tech. During his Senate Hearing joe simmons said he is open to investigating google and facebook if they use their power inappropriately. Billionaire peter thiel apparently no longer trusts Silicon Valley. The conservative is moving to l. A. According to a private source speaking to the wall street journal. He recently said Silicon Valley is a oneparty state and its not his party. Now, he could afford pretty much any building right here, right, any home in the bay area. Not the rest of us. The California Association of realtors says you need a salary of, get ready, 303,000 to home in the city of San Francisco itself. The median price is 1. 5 million so with 20 down in the current Interest Rate you are looking at a monthly mortgage of about 7,580. And thats laura garcia money. Laura garcia money. Thats right. Old habits die hard. Thats okay. Thanks, scott. Happening today a big thing that wont cost you a lot of money to see, the much anticipated release of marvels black panther movie. Generations of fans having waiting for this. This is the first major hollywood action movie with a majority black cast. Pete suratos joins us live in emeryville where the director surprised anxious fans last night. Reporter good morning. Yeah, very exciting time for fans who are watching the black panther movie here at the bay street amc in emeryville as oakland native ryan coogler made a surprise appearance, he is from the bay and he is the director behind the black panther movie. We are going to see moments in this twitter video that as hes in there he tells a crowd that it wasnt too long ago that he was in those same seats watching movies just like them. This theater is super important to me. I spent quite a bite of time here watching movies in these seats right here in the theater, you know, watching movies nonstop. What i hope people take away is that we can define blackness and the black imagination not just in a discourse, you know, not just based in oppression, but messaging that with so much more. Reporter and that was actually ryan coogler person in that other video and then that was a professor from the east bay talking about the importance of this movie how its different from the previous black films we have seen. Its a big moment for ryan coogler as well as the cast of black panther. In that twitter radio ryan coogler mentioned there will be references to the bay area in the movie so you want to keep an eye out for that. There are projections that are saying the movie could make 180 million this Box Office Weekend which is a Holiday Weekend and that would make it one of the best openings of all time. Congrats to ryan coogler and the impact this movie to have on the rest of the movie industry. Pete suratos today in the bay. Could see a lot more like it. People are so excited on this. Ive seen on social media a lot of people dressed up. Well, there has been so much buzz around it for a long time. Everyone wants to be a part of it. I think sunday would be the good day to see the movie. I cant wait to see marcus in his full costume. Oh, really . I guess now i need to get my tickets, though, for next weekend. And we talked about which day of the weekend will be better for seeing the movie. Sunday, right . Sunday because its going to be cooler and windy, you will want to find something to do inside. Saturday is your day to get outside. As we get a look at storm ranger, this is our mobile Doppler Radar, the red scan you are seeing going around the bay area from san jose and this will be tracking our next storm, but looks like it will be a while before it gets here. So we are all in the clear now and a very chilly start to the morning, right now at only 39 degrees on the peninsula. Look at the trivalley, we are below freezing right now at 31 degrees and its 34 now in the north bay. It is a colder start, but it will be a warmer afternoon. So wide range in temperatures. 66 degrees today the high in milpitas, downtown san jose 69. Also 69 in danville and oakland today. 63 degrees and 60 in halfmoon bay. Med wood city 68 degrees and 63 in the mission district. 69 today in novato. We are going to have some changes ahead, an area of low pressure with some older temperatures and gusty winds dropping in between late saturday night and sunday. Now, this will bring some snow to the sierra, slight chance of light snow flurries for the far north bay and some of the Higher Elevations and then very cold air moving in early next week. If you are following me on instagram im karihallweather. Also on twitter and facebook. You can see a picture of my munchkins and how weve enjoyed the warmer temperatures. We will in the be low 50s over the next several days. Im land areas look at how chilly it will be next week and possibly freezing. Mike, youve been tracking a lot of the slowdowns around the bay area. We have a Traffic Alert to start out with. Overall the bay looks like a typical friday, thats why the slow downs will be unexpected for you. Traffic alert northbound 101 at broadway blocking two lanes. This is really jammed up north of 92 and continuing to build as more folks come across that san mateo bridge. So 280 is a good option for you if you can choose that as your alternate coming in toward the area. Now, that san mateo bridge builds for the volume and there was an earlier crash it looks like its been cleared from the traffic patterns and our live camera. South 880 more folks shifted over possibly getting toward the dumbarton bridge and there was a crash at industrial. I dont have an update from chp but it looks like from the traffic patterns that thats clearing. We have the metering lights turned on here, the backup at the toll plaza itself, we only have those fast track lanes, the cash lanes are really light right now. Coming up next on today in the bay, nbc bay area responds. You think team u. S. A. Is crushi
