look, the state is actually staring down some serious debt in the future. "san francisco examiner" columnist melissa griffin joins us. >> good morning. >> good morning, lovely lady in red. >> one republican described it as a mullet budget? >> reporter: it's conservative in the front and liberal in the back. business in the front, party in the back. what he was referring to was the fact that despite the fact that the budget is balanced there's a tremendous amount of debt that the state owes. yeah, i balanced my checkbook for the month but i still have $850 billion in debt. certainly reason to celebrate because it's better than years past but it's still a problem. for example, the calsters teacher pension fund is $71 billion underfunded and retiree healthcare costs are $64 billion over the next 30 years

and it's not addressed in the budget. the total amount of the wall of debt that you sometimes hear the government refer to is about $850 billion. with a b. so again it's better than the past but don't break out the champagne yet in california. >> pension reform a big issue. governor brown made major strides in that recently but obviously not enough. >> well, yeah, exactly. pension reform was passed last year. it was one of those things where it's clear voters weren't going for prop 30 unless something was done with the state pensions so they passed reform applied to new employees hired. any debt for current employees aren't addressed. retiring costs for all employees isn't addressed. so it didn't do much to dent our current obligations although in the future it's supposed to bring down some of the accrual for the debt that we have outstanding now it didn't do anything. >> you're talking about debt.

apparently there's another measure that the assembly passed that has some opposition now. >> exactly. so saturday, this is the legislature met on saturday, amazing, they passed a -- a constitutional amendment that would allow local governments to pass bonds to -- for infrastructure projects with only 55% of the vote. now, you guys might know based on ballot measures that you see on your own ballots that it usually takes right now two- thirds of the majority votes to pass general obligation bonds. what the assembly did is they approved a bill that would allow the localities to pass those bonds with only 55% of the vote. now, you can imagine republicans went a little nuts over this and said, look, all these bond measures pass now anyway with two-thirds of the vote and we're looking at detroit having serious problems with their obligation bonds. we see stockton having serious problems with their sort of fiscal irresponsibility with bonds. we just should not be lowering this threshold. despite that the assembly passed it along party lines and

it's going to the senate where they will consider it and it will also require two-thirds majority vote there. so debt, debt everywhere. happy monday. >> you got to be impressed that they passed a budget. we didn't have high drama that we have been talking about in years past people pulling all nighters and -- >> so political analysts, this was disappointing budget season. i prefer the drama. but as a resident it's better than in years past. the bar has been set low, having said that. so not too hard to impress californians at this point but let's not break out the champagne yet. >> thank you, melissa. >> you can find more of her segments on kpix.com/mornings. 6:48. a national home improvement chain is buying a smaller chain from the bay area. >> here now is kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks. >> reporter: good morning. orchard supply and hardware will have a new owner lowe's offering to buy 60 -- at least

60 of its 91 stores for $205 million. this started with a bankruptcy filing from orchard supply and hardware and lowe's offers sets the bottom floor. others can come in and top that bid. it's debatable whether or not that will happen. orchard was spun off from sears holdings early last year. and it is based out of san jose. it would give lowe's a big jump in the california home improvement market. netflix is looking to amp up its animation programming for kids. signing a deal with dreamworks animation for 300 hours of new programming all original. and some of that would be based off dreamworks' hits like "shrek" and "kung fu panda." netflix is seeing some good traction out of its original programming so far in-house of cards and that's its next avenue bringing new shows. its ratings are up based on that. stock is up 5%. off a rough week for wall street the market is rebounding

now. let's look at the big board. dow up 162. nasdaq up 62. s&p up also. >> thank you, kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks. time now for a look at what's coming up later on "cbs this morning." charlie rose joining us live now from new york. good morning, charlie. >> reporter: good morning. >> we can't hear you, charlie. i'm sure it will be a great show. it starts at 7:00. it will be great. >> we'll see if we can get him back. >> he usually has something to say. [ laughter ] >> like you. >> he is saving it for the big show.

[ laughter ] low clouds and fog surging

onshore. looks like it's thick at the coastline and it's going to be slow to break up and even at the beaches i don't think we'll see much clearing there. so we'll keep you cool at the coast. and well, mostly sunny for the rest of the bay area though by the afternoon but these temperatures going to come down a few degrees and some cooler weather is ahead. high pressure kind of scooting out of the way now. low pressure beginning to drop in out of the gulf of alaska. that will usher in even cooler air for tomorrow. and probably into wednesday. traveling today should become mostly sunny at sfo. no delays expected there. but around the country, we have trouble spots and thunderstorms popping up in several areas into denver, chicago also new york. that could cause some delays there. just hot and humid in houston at 95 degrees. still, around the bay today we'll see temperatures on the mild to warm side. 74 in san jose. 80 morgan hill. about 71 in fremont. east bay temperatures up in the 70s and also the low 80s. inside the bay you will feel that stronger sea breeze today about 62 and cool in san francisco. only about 61 degrees in daly city. next couple of days, it looks like low clouds and fog going

to be on the increase and the temperatures will be cooling down but then weather start to warm up on thursday and friday. all right. let's check the roads with liza battalones. it's been a headache of a drive for all those commuters making the westbound drive leaving the pinole area. we have had delays all morning long because of an earlier accident that happened in the berkeley area. we'll go to live pictures westbound 80 slow from beyond pinole valley road approaching university avenue. that's where crews are cleaning up from this earlier accident involving these two sheriff's vehicles. traffic backed up from pinole valley road approaching the berkeley area. 880/237 interchange, that's really okay so far this morning. drive times are fine for both 880 and 237. if you are driving between the peninsula and san francisco, so far both 101 and 280 are good options. it is crowded at the bay bridge toll plaza. the metering lights are on. traffic is backed up from about the 880 overcrossing. that's a look at traffic.

we'll have your top stories coming up next. ,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,, ,,

jose. the intersection at hillsda and pearl avenues has been one man is dead after a car crashes into several parked cars in south san jose. >> the intersection at hillsdale and pearl avenues is shut down about 2 a.m. there's no word on when things will reopen. and a police chase ended with two contra costa county sheriff's vehicles catching fire. deputies were following a black lexus on i-80 after noticing that it had no license plates, no headlights. the car veered across an embankment in berkeley with thick ice plants and the patrol cars got stuck in those plants and caught fire. the lexus got away. in pacifica, a 10-year-old girl fought off a 6-foot-tall

man she says tried to abduct her. the girl told police the man tried to grab her yesterday afternoon near the pier but she punched the man and was able to get away from him. the girl and her mother went to police and helped them come up with a sketch of the suspect, 30 to 40 years old, 6 feet tall with a stocky build. weather-wise we have fog moving in. >> surging onshore now thick at the coastline. but it's going to break up. most spots will see sun this afternoon. still some patchy fog continuing out toward the immediate coastline. temperatures right now in the 40s and the 50s outside. i think as we look toward the afternoon hours, 50s and 60s coastside. you will still see 70s and maybe low 80s inland. next couple of days well below average and slowly warming up on thursday and friday. drivers on 80 will want to make sure they have a full tank of gas, because traffic is very slow westbound 80 backed up through pinole approaching richmond, berkeley because of the earlier accident.

you make that right hand curve towards the bay bridge toll plaza and this is what awaits you. the metering lights are on. traffic is backed up through the 880 overcrossing. >> lawrence, you're just having too much fun with the ladies. >> yes, i am. >> all right. the new reigning miss u.s.a. has brains and beauty. >> and miss u.s.a. 2013 is connecticut! >> erin brady 25 years old is an accountant from connecticut. she took home the crown in las vegas. she is going to get a new york apartment for a year, plans to quit her job at prudential financial and go on a nationwide speaking tour to raise awareness for breast cancer and ovarian cancer. it is nice to hear a lady that's got something going on upstairs. >> brains and beauty. >> soon she will be anchoring.
