Good morning, everyone, im Carolyn Tyler. Thanks for joining us. On this sunday, october 20th. Lets start with a quick first look at the weather with meteorologist lisa argen. Carolyn, good morning. Our shallow but dense deck of low clouds and fog. Certainly creating problems with zero visibility in some plays. A mile and a half, two and a half across the bay in hayward and oakland down to a halfmile. But we are looking at this shallow, dense deck to continue to erode throughout the day today. It will burn back to the coast. So mostly sunny skies on pap again with numbers climbing through the 60s by noontime. By 4 00 we are back into the 60s and 70s again with a mild to warm day on tap. A little bit more fog in the forecast tonight. But ill let you know the specifics for high temperatures around the bay area today. Talk about a bigger dealwith my accuweather sevenday forecast coming up. Carolyn. Thank you, lisa. Now to the latest in the developments with bart. The National Transportati
Live tracks, the responsibility of the safety is on themselves. National Transportation Safety board says one of the men supposed to be a lookout, being off the tracks, and outside of the complete path of the train. That is something two men would have had to decide among themselves. National Transportation Safety board will be reenactinging the sin nair yes at 1 00 tomorrow afternoon, same time of the day as accident happened as a result, the track will be closed. And the board will be running buses between lafayette station and Pleasant Hills station, between noon and 3 30 tomorrow afternoon. National Transportation Safety board gathering records from bart and other agencies and looking at the relationship between bart and California Public utilities commission. John, thank you. Bart running a full schedule, 54 trains tonight at the abrupt end of a fourday strike. Trains began running about eight hours after bart and unions finalized a deal to end the walkout. Final touches being put
Is at about 1,000 feet deep. We expect it to be an issue this morning with temperatures in the upper 40s to near 50. By this afternoon mostly sunny conditions and the fog continues to roll back to the coast with temperatures mainly in the low to mid60s. By the afternoon, though, once finish, we are well into the 70s around the bay. Looks like low 60s at the coast. We are talking about partly cloudy skies today at the shoreline. Slightly cooler there but still mild to warm across the bay. Ill have a look at the rest of the temperatures around the bay and a cooler week ahead in a few minutes. Carolyn. Thank you, lisa. In breaking news, crews are mopping up a fire at an Apartment Building in walnut creek. Four units were destroyed in the fire that broke out around 1 30 at the boulders apartment. Thats on north civic drive. The fire is now under control. Seven children and five adults were displaced. No one was injured while the cause of the fire is under investigation. Authorities say it
Condolences to their families. Our hearts, our prayers, go out to the families of two workers who have just been killed on the bart tracks. This is a tragedy of the greatest proportion for the bart family. Reporter assistant bart manager paul overseer said the train was in automatic mode and an experienced train operator was behind the control. Some Union Members claim the operator was a manager without recent experience filling in for operators now on strike. If that was an experienced train operator, it wouldnt have happened. Reporter its an allegation bart owe filgss would not discuss. Weve just lost two people in the bart family. And thats what our focus is on. Reporter bart procedures require that one employee act as a lookout for oncoming trains as the other one works. Bart officials said both workers had extensive experience around moving trains. They were doing today what they have probably done 100 if not 1,000 other times in their career. Reporter these are the sixth and seve
Good. Investigators will be reviewing data, video and audio to, figure out the time frame of what happened. National Transportation Safety board says the rear wheels also had a flat spot, suggestsing someone hit the emergency brakes beforehand. We also learned more about the half dozen people on board. There were individuals being trained to be operators. They spent time in the operator seats for such training. Under the direct supervision of an experienced trainer positioned behind the trainee. As part of the simple approval, that the track inspector and consultants received, to allow them to go on, or near the live tracks, the responsibility of the safety is on themselves. National Transportation Safety board says one of the men supposed to be a lookout, being off the tracks, and outside of the complete path of the train. That is something two men would have had to decide among themselves. National Transportation Safety board will be reenactinging the sin nair yes at 1 00 tomorrow af
