Crews are taking apart the 78 yearold bridge in roughly the reverse order of how it was built. Demolition started back in april. So far about 800 feet of the bridge has been taken down.

East bay politicians are joining forces to try to remove thousands of eucalyptus trees from the Oakland Hills. 12 officials sent a letter to the federal government asking for 5 million in funding to cut down the trees. The concern is that their oily wood and dry leaves pose a huge fire risk. In fact, they were cited as one of the big reasons the 1991 Oakland Hills fire spread so quickly. The trees are not native to the bay area. They were planted here at the end of the 19th century by two oakland businessmen who unsuccessfully tried to use them for lumber. 7 10.

Some sunbreaks here. Theres going to be an increase in clouds later on, especially this afternoon. It will be a much bigger event for the sierra. We could get a few scattered showers. Some of the higher cloud streaming in towards the north bay, mainly marin county. Its back here. Theres a couple of showers still off the mendocino coast. They havent moved much. As this moves in. It will destabilize the atmosphere a little bit. But the sierra things are already popping up in the sierra. There will be rain up there. And maybe as this low as this forms, it closes off over nevada might give them know up around 8,000 feet. Some of the clouds increasing over the north bay. There comes the system as it slopes in.

There was excitement during the giant game last night. It involves something that will happen next week. Groundhogs at new yorks Staten Island to may have to look for a new day job. Officials may stop allowing mayors who hold their groundhogs on that day. A couple of mishaps may have spurred this last february.

One person reported killed in the crash that happened about an hour ago, almost an hour and a half ago on northbound 680 before pacheco. One overturned vehicle. Westbound bay bridge, this is backed up for a little bit. But not a huge delay coming into the city. Were looking at the commute here on 880 northbound. Its getting a little bit slow as you pass the coliseum. Lets go back to the desk. Happening right now, a one day strike at the golden gate ferry service. Riders who normally take the ferry between marin county in San Francisco<\/a> are out of luck today. Ktvus Tara Moriarty<\/a> is live at the larkspur Ferry Terminal<\/a> where a growing number of terminals have joined the picket line. Reporter good morning. Actually, the people who are technically on strike are the 16 ferry captains asking for a better contract. You can see that engineers and deck hands are standing in solidarity with him. 9,000 people from the north bay had to scramble to find another way to work this morning. The reason, the captains are angry that the Golden Gate Bridge<\/a> district is offering 9 raises over three years. Captains want 12 . They say that they will have to pay more for healthcare anyway. The district argues that its captains make 83,000 a year and outearn those others by far. Commuters are taking it in stride. One man biked it to work. I think a lot of my coworkers will choose to work from home or take an alternate route. Some people will take the bus. Reporter are reporter are you frustrated at all . No. Its friday. Its an easy day. Reporter the district is not planning to have any extra buses because it says fridays are typically light. There are no more buses running from the larkspur ferry. We have received word of the 915 bus routes, 13 have been canceled because drivers called in sick. This means that santa rosa is being hit hard this morning with longer wait times and crowded buses. You should also know that the fridays ballpark ferry is canceled. Giant fans need to make other plans. Contract negotiations are set to resume monday. Live from larkspur, im Tara Moriarty<\/a>, ktvu channel 2 news. There are new fears this morning about corrosion on the new eastern span of the bay bridge. The San Francisco<\/a> chronicle reports several of the steel rods that anchor the new span may have corroded due to water leaks on the bridge. Caltrans found the water last week and they believe the leaks may date back to 2010 before the tower was lowered into position. Officials say the water has been drained but its still unclear whether any rods were damaged. 8 5. Now to developing news. Weve been on this all morning about problems affecting flights around the country this morning. A fire at an faa control tower in illinois stopped most flights at ohare and midway airports. Thats having a Ripple Effect<\/a> on flights around the country. Brian flores found out about Flights Canceled<\/a> at sfo. Whats happening, brian . Reporter hi, dave. Well, there are simply more Flights Canceled<\/a> or delayed because of whats going on in chicago this morning. Really the best advice i can give you, if you are headed to chicago from our bay area airports, perhaps expecting friend or family from there as well, just check with your airline this morning and this afternoon as well. Airport duty managers throughout the country, held a teleconference call about the situation in chicago. Now at last check here at sfo, there were five departure cancellations and four arrival cancellations from either chicago open hair or midway airports. This is in response to the suspicious fire that broke out at the faa radar center in aurora, illinois, a western suburb of chicago earlier this morning. At the American Airlines<\/a> terminal back here at sfo, several passengers were left wondering what what to do the next. Pretty frustrated because we i looked on my emails this morning and nobody let me know that this had happened. So we came in, you know, got up superearly, came to the airport and then find this out. Reporter along with the fire police in aurora, there was a man with selfinflicted wounds, the ap is reporting that this man was a contract employee with the faa. Police Officials Say<\/a> this was not an act of terrorism. The man is being questioned about the fire this morning. As we take it back out here live. We understand there were a small amount of flights that were circling chicagos airports. They were allowed to land early. We understand there was a ground stop there. Check with your airline. Were live here in San Francisco<\/a>, brian flores, ktvu channel 2 news. All right. Thank you, brian. We want to show you a pretty good visual of the problems in chicago. Its a map tracking all flights in the eastern United States<\/a>. The planes currently in the air are in white. In this map, were zooming in on ohare and midway. Since there are two of the nations busiest airports, normally it would be covered with white planes. But its fairly clear at this hour, kind of at the bottom of the lake there. Without air Traffic Control<\/a> monitoring the space, other flights are having to divert around that area and thats causing delays. San franciscos fire chief is now getting a strong show of support. Earlier this week, groups representing rank and file firefighters called for joanne hayeswhite to step down. They pointed to what they called a crisis in confidence in her ability to lead the department. But a number of chief supporters came to her defense during the commission meeting. They included the heads of other city departments. Shes a role model to all, and to young girls like my own daughters in particular that have more confidence that anybody is possible. The Fire Commission<\/a> heard several hours of testimony but it did not take any action regarding her future as San Francisco<\/a>s fire chief. Ktvus cameras went inside an oakland apartment complex described by the city of oakland as a public nuisance. Now, the Hillside Apartments<\/a> in east oakland tenants complained the units are badly maintained and the area is controlled by gangs and drug dealers. One tenant showed us a window broken last june. He said the owners and Property Managers<\/a> still will not fix. A woman showed us photos of her son covered in bug bites. She says the apartment complex is infected infested with insects. I got kid, teenagers with bite marks. They go to school. Now they are fighting because somebody is picking on them because in class, they got a fleabite mark or its not right. Last weekend, there was a Fatal Shooting<\/a> outside of the complex. The oakland City Attorneys Office<\/a> is suing the buildings owner, allegations of unsafe living conditions. An historic plg in redwood City Building<\/a> in redwood city is going up for sale for one dollar. There is a catch. A small queen anne victorian. This is from googles street view. It is on a lot on Wilson Street<\/a>. A developer warrants to build a new apartment there because this buildings historic status, though, the developer will have to put the house up for sale foreonly a dollar for only a dollar. The only condition, the buyer has to move the building off the property. If no one buys it within 90 days, it can be torn down. Increased security in transit systems across the bay area. The potential threat that has authorities on high alert and what b. A. R. T. Police officers are asking commuters to do. Broken traffic lights at a very busy traffic intersection. Tiny bugs causing a big problem. On highway 4, we have slow traffic this morning. At you come up to the 680 interchange as you come up to the 680 interchange. Partly sunny, mostly sunny.

That van overturned. The sedan driving erratically slammed in the Center Divide<\/a> and veered off the lanes struck a roadway sign and fence, overturned and was ultimately ejected. Reporter this gentleman was not wearing a seat belt. Whats the take away from a crash like this. The majority of rollover crashes that the Highway Patrol<\/a> responds to are noninjury crashes provided the person wears their seat belt. Thats often the situation in lifeordeath situations. Had he been wearing his seat belt, he may have escaped with scratches. Reporter daniel hill with the chp. Traffic had been crawling.

Thats probably true for us. It wont its not a classic set up. But its there. Weak little system its sending in high and midlevel cloud. The sierra will light up here. Its already getting active. Its really early. This system will form a close low and then thats going to swing into the sierra. It could be very active for northern sacramento valley, sierra and also up to reno and nevada. 50s and 60s on your temperatures here. Napa is 54. I think they dipped to 49. Half moon bay 59.

Somebody got good rain. For us well look for a partly to mostly cloudy. That front is gone. Here comes the system and that will give us some partly to mostly cloudy skies. A few scattered showers. I think the best bet would be today and after today well see improving conditions. I think it will be in the north bay. Look at this. Santa rosa up to mendocino county, lake county back to napa, maybe eastern solano county. That would be 4 00 to 6 00. Thats what the model is latching onto. I tend to agree with that north and east more than anywhere else. Of a that, things calm down. But the sierra will be a whole different ballgame. Not only that, possibility of showers and then saturday it will turn more to snow around 8,000 feet. Reno, tahoe, truckee. Pockets of morning fog. Showers, possible shower or two.

Traffic will be moving along well on 680 as you pass pacheco boulevard. The crash is off to the side. The coroner has left. Now they just have to get the car out of there. Lets take a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. Thats also doing pretty well. Not major problems here.
