hours. it caused a lot of frustration for a lot of people but some people took it all in stride. >> we got an alert saying that there was an incident on bart. so we left work a little bit early, got on a train and now we were dropped off at lafayette, and now we're going to another bus to take us to concord bart to get us to our cars. it has not been too bad. everybody is in a good mood, but as it gets later it could get a little more frustrating. >> reporter: well, check this out from sky ranger, you can see it didn't take long for the backup to diminish at the lafayette station. there could be delays at other stations but things are clearing up live. back here live there is another problem here in the parking lot. people are getting off the stations and getting in their cars. there is a bit of a backup. but this will soon are history and things are pretty much back on track. reporting live, i'm cheryl hurd,

ordinance protection. the policy is designed to protect renters from no-cause evictions, get earlier notice and rent control when a housing apartment is demolished. but it could be as long as two months if not given urgency status. as they found out for rent control, a lot can happen in two weeks or two months. >> the last time there was a lapse, there was an increase in evictions and rent increases, so that is what we feel is going to happen again. >> reporter: the city housing director who spearheaded the ordinance agreed saying tenants whose leases expire during this time are very vulnerable. >> we're doing the best we can which is to come back with the urgency ordinance. >> there really is no way to protect them during this

downtime? >> reporter: correct, because they're acting within their rights. >> reporter: actors say they will do the same the land lords. >> and if it does, we'll raise our voices loud and strong and let them know that that is not okay. >> reporter: well, today advocates tried to get the rules council to move up the ordinance vote a week next tuesday, but the committee made up of the people on the losing end of last week's vote rejected the idea. so the next vote will happen may 9th. and who knows what will happen between tenants and landlords before then. coulter campus controversy, ann coulter's visit to the university has been cancelled. uc berkeley's officials say they couldn't assure her safety or that of the campus. the campus republicans say she is coming. so which is it? >> reporter: well, there are really two sides to this story,

jessica. as you said the school made it clear they did not have enough time to get proper security for an ann coulter visit. campus republicans say that is not true. they gave the school plenty of time and ms. coulter will, they insist, speak on april 27th. for decades uc berkeley's campus was famous as the birth place of free speech. but in the wake of the violent protests that cancelled the february talk by right wing speaker milo beyond yiannopoulo >> we were able to accommodate other high profile speakers because we had advance notice. >> reporter: in fact, berkeley said they didn't even learn about the talk from campus republicans. >> we learned about the invitation to ms. coulter by

reading about it in the newspaper. >> not true, say the republican group saying not only did they give the campus enough time to prepare but that ms. coulter will speak on the 27th. >> ann coulter, despite what the administration and agitators are trying to do, ann coulter will speak on april 27th. >> cal students have mixed emotions about the controversial speaker. >> there is definitely a danger that presents itself here, like speaking here, although i do believe in free speech. >> instead you should let the people speak. you're free to protest, instead of using your fists how about you have a dialogue with those people? >> reporter: ann coulter herself was speaking about it herself on twitter, saying no school that accepts funds can ban free speech. they're not talking where she will speak, at least for now. a lot of back and forth with

grabbed inappropriately by a man on campus. the suspect in that case has been arrested but today many students fear the instances will continue. >> really upsetting, with the campus, but more can you honestly do? >> reporter: last year there were 21 cases of sexual battery on campus, and so far this year there have been six incidents. reporting live, michelle roberts. more teams joining the search for a missing plane and the santa rosa couple on board. brenda richard was on the controls at the four-seater, her husband mark traveling with her. the plane is equipped with an emergency transmitter, but the authorities have not detected a signal. the plane was expected to land at petaluma airport in the evening. family members alerted authorities when the couple failed to arrive. radar and cell phone analysis have narrowed the search to a rugged area of the sierra

in court. even non-citizen veterans who cross that legal line can be deported under this 1996 law. >> legally it can't be used any more for immigration, they can't oh, you have this crime we'll deny you because of this crime. so it's huge. >> reporter: two more deported veterans were also granted clemency by governor brown. but another honorably discharged veteran who was deported, enrique solas, who we also visited in tijuana, was not. barajas vows to continue fighting for his brothers in arms like salas, who will remain overseas for now. >> we'll expand. >> reporter: barajas was hoping to return to the country he was willing to die for, but later deported him, soon. he has been offered a job in the u.s. with a roofing company and hopes to share a burrito in this country with his daughter. >> it was unfortunate, but i had a little piece of paper.

but a little bit of rainfall, sandwich in between, it's not a major storm system, just enough to get the roads slick in the early morning hours, so let's look at the micro climate forecast right now. you can see the storm is moving closer and closer, top thing you should know about this is the heavier rainfall is moving way off to the north as we zoom in to get a closer look at the doppler radar, the one thing i'm concerned about right now is the current view is not matching up as well with the forecast model data that we're seeing across on all fronts. so bottom line, i do think this wet weather that is developing in the pacific will move in tonight. so everyone should expect the chance of rainfall, but it looks like the north bay will definitely have the best possibility. we can show you on the forecast model data. you will see at 8:30 p.m., showers near middletown and calistoga, moving through the north bay by 11:30 p.m. and it continues to fall apart as it moves down to the

peninsula and east bay at 1:30 a.m. on thursday, and 4:00 by saturday. the commute, we're drying out from this and the sunshine will start to return. so i don't think you're going to have any problems as you head out on thursday morning. mostly sunny to partly cloudy. 53 in the south bay, 54 in the peninsula, and the tri-valley 51, clearing out under mostly sunny skies for the north bay and 50 san francisco, san francisco, 53. as we bring you back in the future cast just want to reinforce there will be no shower chance after 7:00 a.m., you can see by 1:01 a.m., we're mainly looking at mostly sunny continuing. so as we look at the forecast for thursday, we have some awesome weather down in the south bay. 71 expected in downtown, maybe even 72 in gilroy, only problem could be the winds, breezy at 14, we'll kick around the pollen again, so allergy sufferers

certainly need to think about that. oak, pine and sycamore, the top three problems, and 73 in walnut creek, slightly cooler in the bay, throughout the peninsula, 61 in half moon bay. warmer here for san mateo, and 67. san francisco, 64 along the embarcadero, and cooler 60 for engineleside. 67 in mill valley, and 67 in santa rosa, and the forecast keeping the dry weather and sunshine for friday. warming up to 68 in san francisco, and maybe a possible shower next tuesday. not a big storm system. but we're going to keep our eye on this very, very closely, dry weather to next wednesday. for interior valleys, the bigger difference by friday, we may have isolated 80s in the forecast, little bit of cooling for the weekend but still looks fantastic. so next tuesday again maybe a speed bump coming our way, i

don't see a big storm system but we'l÷r continue to follow that think you did a pretty good job on getting things to line up on this one, most of us will be sleeping. great timing just for you guys. >> all right, from in here in the studio, let's go courtside. colin rush is at the oracle before tonight's tipoff. >> reporter: hey, guys, we know that kevin durant is out tonight. we'll discuss it coming up in sports. ♪
