we're in the midst f still some of us in the 30's like double in morgan hill. but san jose, you're out of the 30's back up to 43. same in hayward as well as palo alto, 2 spots that started this morning in the 30's as well. petaluma and santa rosa beach still at 39 degrees but almost back into the 40's with 50's and 60's just around the corner. i'll be breaking down. what exactly do expect our rain showers on the way for tomorrow. still to come in the rest of your forecast. that's bound to have an impact on your commute thursday morning. this morning, though, it's dry just a little busy in some spots. exactly. i want to start with the san mateo bridge because we just got reports there's an accident. 92 westbound right now we're not seeing may delays as you're heading across towards the peninsula. we're still at about 14 minutes for your drive time. the air. a look at the bay bridge heading into the city under 12 minutes of things are getting much better. >> for your community and we had some early morning accident and collisions. and we've been stay on top of those things. but things are starting to level out a little bit. the richmond sandra fell

bridge that commute is at the limit under 9 minutes for your drive town. the south bay also looking great here in the green heading towards menlo park long 1. one, just a 29 minutes and look at the voting and written into the city under 22 for your drive time. we're staying on top of your commute for you. darya and james, back to you. >> thanks a lot. there was a mass shooting. 3 different massage callers were shot up and 8 people were killed in atlanta last night and this morning we learned a lot more as they're beginning to piece together a motive for the shootings. yes, 6 of the victims were women of asian descent. so there was early speculation that perhaps this might have been racially motivated. >> police have been able to detain a suspect identified as 2821 year-old robert aaron long. he was arrested south of atlanta last night. they've been interviewing him and they're getting more information from him like the fact that he's told investigators he is a addict that he had frequent the frequented. these been massage parlors and police believe he may have been on his way to florida, perhaps to carry out other shooting. so it's a good thing that they actually were

able to catch him after these. >> 3 different shootings. the first 4 victims found in cherokee county, which is northwest of atlanta and then and our leader. 3 men were 3 women sorry were shot and killed at a massage parlor in atlanta and then another police across the street a massage parlor woman was killed there and police say that he had visited these very massage parlors in the past and with all of mass shooting incidents. we know that the president was given a briefing on what happened. >> he says that he's following the matter closely. he's working with the fbi right now to get to the bottom of exactly what happened. 4 of the women are believed to be of korean descent. and so early on secretary of state anthony blinken, who's actually in south korea. he made a statement saying that this sort of violence has no place in america again. they're still trying to determine if race was the main motive behind this or perhaps it was somehow related to his says addiction, possibly a hate crime against women. i think when they were when they

were talking at first because everyone, including in the bay area has been on edge seeing an increase in violence against the asian community and so that was the initial go to is was this an attack. >> on asians because they're asian and no other reason. and now it seems that there is a connection that he frequented these massage parlors and so obviously was aimed at women and it was aimed at the women who work at these spas. so beyond that, if they they are still investigating deeper into the motive. and then, of course going to florida, you know, where they would stop him on those plans that we'll have to wait and see as more information comes out, which may happen at any point throughout the day today. so make sure you stay updated on the story. >> by connecting with us on kron. 4 dot com, our website and also through the kron 4 mobile app and the kron on app. both of those free to download. so if you haven't already make sure download those today. we also new details about what led to police officer shooting and killing a man at a motel 6 parking lot. the police chief says the man was in a car

suspected to be connected to a robbery involving an elderly woman leaving a bank. the car was first spotted monday, but the driver sped off when police tried to stop him. officers, then tracked the car to the motel. 6 parking lot and when they again tried to stop the driver. they say that's when he hit several police cars forcing officers to open fire. the driver died in that exchange of gunfire. the chief says that there have been at least a dozen robberies now involving elderly women at banks since december. >> time now is 9.

pharmacy. and expand, they're doing it with their walmart's number one cost labor costs. how much to pay their employees, their number to pastas their health care costs. for most companies. it's a big problem and amazon same. we're going to get into this world because amazon care. probably 75%. your doctor visits could be done away with and amazon will even send a nurse to your home really to take blood or to get to an examination. clearly some things are going to anything like imaging anything tied towards cancers. but this is 21st century. i'm excited last 20 years i've got doctors for allergies sore throats and i don't need to be there. so i think it's a win-win for all parties. i would not underestimate amazon going even higher for down the road standings office. a separate business. that's interesting. sending a nurse to you know, that's not actually all that strange the member another years ago when i purchased a

health and life insurance. >> that leaches company sent nurse to the house to call the vitals kind of give you a quick little a physical overall that can see how that might replace some of the basic doctor visits just for preventative care home. >> 21st century. we're operating as if we're back in the 18th century. and so so for it and all they're going to be the structure and the insurance companies. watch out. >> all right. something to also watching. i guess we have pepsi unveiling a new. all right. lebron james and pepsi partnering together now on this new drink that i i hear has on a caffeine in it to cups of coffee. essentially lot of cold mountain dew rise. >> so it's a brand under a brand of pepsi. and lebron james. he was with coca cola for 18 years. now he's jump ship showing no t that's probably not going to take against him because i would have a spokesperson. i could. but it's a coke versus pepsi wars not to do rise. it's a 14

billion-dollar energy treat world. they're really going after tease that they go after everything that they can do replicate. >> but in this case are often at vitamin a vitamin c zinc. so the boost your metabolism. it's really aimed at on radio this morning to first time i had a to remember the excitement in my house. it was 40 years so it i think it's a really smart idea of hep c again. you can't was an endorsement, rock star just sold for 2.8 billion dollars. couple of years pepsi. so they're constantly trying to reinvent drink market and on shelves soon lebron james not how 2 cups of coffee and one cam. that's. >> pretty incredible couple you for the whole day. >> couple and you and i work in the mornings. there's a good chance all consume some of a drive you have to you think of it. thank you, rob, as always. you bet. the top of the morning to we've got rob
