Now to a big change in our weather. A series of storms lining up off our coast. Bill martin is tracking it for us. This seems to be a significant storm headed our way.

Look at all the lows. Heres the jet stream down in here. The jet stream is down in this area, here, and running in this direction. Not that straight of a line, obviously. But what i can show you is how this system, where all of these systems lie. Heres a system here. Heres another one here. Heres another one here. And heres another one here. All of those weather systems focused right now on the pacific northwest. But they will continue to work their way south. Weve got rain somehowing up now in the pacific northwest. They have had maximum flooding in portland, and seattle. Theyre going to continue to get rain. Measuring it in 6 inches, half a foot, to a foot.

Reporter julie, that meeting wrapped up a few hours ago, i will tell you, oakland, richmond, and hayward are some of the east bay schools that currently teach this curriculum. Its about 35, to 45 minutes. It was created by the department of justice, tonight, we found out unanimously, it will start being taught here in san leandro, starting next moment. Before tonights meeting, students, parents, and teachers gathered outside san leandro city hall, to explain why they dont want the curriculum in their classroom. Its taken away from the curriculum of the learning process. Reporter it is a six week federally funded course, which will be taught by the two San Leandro School resource officers, currently working in the district. Police say although gang resistence in the course name, theres very little discussion about gangs. They teach Decision Making. They teach communication skills. They teach recognizing and how to control anger. How to prevent bullying behaviors. Reporter the Police Instructors had to undergo 60 hours of training for the course at no cost to the schools. Parents here say there is a cost. Their kids education. We know it will have a positive influence, and to replace it with something that we do not know will have any benefit, other than quite frankly, pr for the police, i think is inappropriate. Its not about the Police Officers changing the image, its really about us as role models in our communities, being able to instill these life skills. This is not the place for the police. Not in our school classrooms. Reporter but everyone in attendance wasnt in agreement. Some say having officers in the classroom, interacting with students at a young age is best for all involved. If it starts at an early age, i think theyll get it through their head that they shouldnt be doing these bad things. And it doesnt look cool to do drugs. Reporter again the course will start in january here in san leandro. From there, the board will decide if it will go to other schools in the future. All right paul, thank you.

Reporter yellow tape, blocking a well known trail in oakland today. A normally tranquil place, who instead had to be diverted or escorted past a crime scene. No, to get to the raiders stadium, you actually have to go over the freeway. Reporter around 9 00 a. M. , someone at the Martin Luther king regional shore line found a body in a spot off the popular San Francisco bay trail in the shadow of the oakland coliseum, and oracle arena. Definitely had blood. Reporter and it wasnt just a body. East Bay Regional Park Police say its a homicide. Can you start code 3 and medical . Reporter police say the victim was shot once. They believe here in the park. Possibly not too long before he was found. Its a huge shock, obviously. You know, murders in the Park District are extremely rare. This is a shock to everybody, and you know, cause of great concern, obviously. Reporter it was a big shock to laront who rides along the trail every week. Makes me feel a little unsafe. Reporter for park visitors like frieden, the Police Activity in a spot not known for such crime was a sign that something was wrong. I saw the tv car, so i thought there must be something going on. Its not because, you know the bridge is failing or whatever. So i think you get used to it here. I think for me to ride, its fairly safe. Its okay. But i wouldnt let my kids ride here. A very active weather pattern, as i pointed out. Look at all the little impulses. These are all potential weather systems. This is a big one moving in through. As we go through the next few days, these systems will work their way onshore, mainly in the pacific northwest. Gradually, a lot of this energy works its way south and works its way thursday. Currently outside, its mostly cloudy, and tomorrow, guess what . Mostly cloudy. A lot like today. Tomorrow is going to be almost a duplicate of today, and there might be a drizzle or sprinkle.
