looking clear and dry and that's the way we're going to be staying this forecast stays dry from start to finish rounding out what has been a dry month of april with the same weather that we started with 40's and 50's for current temps, berkeley conquered san francisco and alameda under spots right now in the 50's reyna. john, thank you for that. will yesterday around this time. we're pretty busy, especially in the south bay. not tracking any major delays are hot spots this morning. >> as you're hitting the roads heading into the city right now. a little under 8 minutes to make it to that fremont street exit heading across towards the peninsula. things are looking great. they're just 12 minutes for you to make that commute. the richmond sandra fell bridge starting to pick up just about 7 minutes for you to make that drive out of richmond and looking at the golden gate bridge as you're heading into the city just a little under 90 minutes there. we'll have more on that throughout the morning. but for now darya and james, back to you. >> all right, ryan, thank you very 5. '01, one of the big stories we're following out of the east bay and clues newer involves new police body camera video which shows the

moments leading up to the death of 26 year-old mario gonzales, who you see right there he died in alameda police custody last week on april 19th. now it all started when police received a 911. call about gonzales standing in a homeowner's yard. >> to head right over i'm over here. we want to fall down, ok, are going where it's going to put your hands but know, it is. it's hope. >> that. well, several minutes after police arrived and talk to gonzales. they. >> as you see here tried to detain him gonzales falls to the ground. one point as grabbed and handcuffed police body camera video shows an officer did put his knee on mario is back for a time while he was on the ground paramedics that point then took martin to hospital. but it was there that he later died due to what police say was a medical emergency now since his death criminal investigations are being

conducted now by the alameda county sheriff's office and another investigation is also underway by the alameda county district attorney's office. we'll let you know what those investigations by the family of mario gonzalez held a news conference yesterday condemning the officers involved. they say the video proves that mario was not violence. >> and did not deserve to die. >> still reasons. you know, when you know at no point. was he violent or out of control. the police killed my brother in the same manner that they george floyd. >> the city of alameda has also launched a 3rd independent investigation into gonzalez. his death. elevate as interim chief confirms to kron 4 that the 3 officers involved. our eric mckinley, who's on the force for 3 years. cameron early. hey, also on the force 3 james fisher who has been on the police force for 10 years. all

of the officers involved right now are on paid administrative leave. >> well, new this morning in the south bay, we have the santa clara valley water district asking people now to voluntarily conserve water voluntary for now hoping to avoid mandatory later. yeah. and this is because the state is wondering what are we going to do. we're seeing the dry conditions now kron four's camila barco. >> live in san jose with details. good morning. camilla. >> good morning, daryn. and that's right. santa clara valley water district is asking people to do. they are part before these conditions get worse or they're trying to be proactive about this and this means that people must conserve their water to do so and they are asking residents to and conserve their water usage by 25%. this is not mandatory, but voluntary. they have created incentives to get people to do this. people will get $2 per square foot instead of a dollar for replacing lawns with drought tolerant

landscaping experts say it will be a very dry year according to the u.s. drought monitor santa clara is in a severe drought now right now, water supply conditions are adequate here, but they want to plan ahead. these dry conditions continue and some tips to conserve water. i know we've heard this before, but a quick reminder on how to conserve your water, you can do so by watering your lawn between 09:00pm to 06:00am if you're going to brush your teeth, turn off that fossett and then also. if you want to. conserve your water, take five-minute showers and also the finally throughout your house may want to fix those cars. that can also contribute to this story. james, back to you. all right. all good tips. thank you very much. camila. >> and east bay mud. they voted to declare a stage. one drought at this point. that's means customers are being asked similarly voluntarily reduce your water usage by up to 10% starting may first east bay mud will begin informing customers about the drought

and ways to reduce their water use outdoors and indoors. east bay mud has posted some tips already to help you conserve. and here are a few ideas. camila mentioned some of them, you you can also run the dishwasher and the laundry. when you only have a full load. don't do a half low. don't run the waterway, russian that east because that's what marty always says. never let the water run and they recommend taking shorter showers. that's what camilla just said. 5 minutes should be plenty if you have outdoor landscaping and you must water do it early in the morning or after 07:00pm. don't be like sometimes in the yeah, it is all business. all also this morning, fully vaccinated. people don't need to wear masks outdoors anymore unless they're in a big crowd. at least that's the word or recommendation from the cdc and that is causing some confusion. >> because guidelines vary depending on the state and depending on the county

governor newsom says california is going to align with the cdc. >> so that will be the situation covers will tran is live in alameda now with more on this will i know i was just out walking yesterday and people had best song in the wilderness kind in the middle of nowhere. i didn't. and then i was feeling like i needed to be able to. plus a vaccinated. you know, i. >> i i think we do need t-shirts. >> i think this change that you're right. you might want to like i'm vaccinated. i'm ok or you might be shamed into wearing your mask. but the bottom line is you can say, well, the governor of our state says it's ok if you are not wearing your mask so long as that. you're in a small gathering. so try to use some common sense and the governor all along has said he's being powered by science. and in this particular case, california has the lowest positivity rate as far as covid-19 is concerned. so he says it's time to align with cdc those experts who they spend all day and night thinking about this and the governor says if it's good

enough for them, it's good enough for us. so take a look at your screen. these are the things that you need to know. think small. think large. so on the left side, no mask. small gatherings outdoor dining. so long as that small, i would suggest you continue with your social bubble. and on the right side of your screen when you should wear your mask and sporting events like the warriors and the giants are already requiring people to wear your mask. so if you go there. whether you like it or not, they will make you wear your mask live events. i know some concerts are coming back slowly but surely and of course you will be surrounded by hundreds if not thousands of those people. so once again, that is try to use common sense. governor newsom says so far in california. 28 million people have either received their first or have been fully vaccinated and those are people 16 years and older. so it looks really good. and he says 6 million of those shots

have already been administered at some of the hardest hit areas with in california. he claims the future has never been brighter as far as turning the corner. we've got a chance to track down some people. here's their reaction on mask or no mask. i mean, even still wear with the vaccine depending on the crowd and you know how crowded is. >> because you just don't know and you have to really take care of yourself to they feel more comfortable going out without their mask and fine. i prefer to keep my on. >> so the bottom line hit it. it's still up to local municipalities to decide whether or not, but i'm sure once the numbers continue to go down. they probably too well aligned with governor gavin newsome. so he runs the entire state mayor breed ryan san francisco. you get the mayor's run each town. so be up to them. but the bottom line is it looks like it's getting to a point where you can decide. i love your idea. daria wear a t-shirt that says i'm fully faxed. leave me

alone. and i for one, if you're curious i don't care. i will continue to wear a mask you or anybody within 6 feet of me. i am scared to death. and because i get full coverage, you guys are talking about the moon yeah. that the shot up for that. thank your eye like a big pizza pie you can it. >> you could let go like this and just squeeze it with your fingers. if you got gotten the shot. hey, want to ask you. but here's thing. it go on over over. there you go. we'll let you do run. and and i think that's a big point is a lot of people. there are so low running their solo bike riding right there. bicycling and that is when people use your mask, it's difficult and you don't have to. >> now you don't have to. and when you run more than likely you outrun anybody anyways, right? are you a bit as far as i run, if i see somebody coming down. yeah, go around them. i'm not getting any close. sure. i want to have a t-shirt that says after covid-19 are not continue

social distancing from me right and stay away from a okay. thank you. will. >> time now is 5.10. we will take a quick break, but still ahead on the kron 00:00am morning news. >> a role model for the trans community stabbed to death we'll tell you who's facing charges now in that crime. plus, some elections officials are warning newsroom recall election could be one of the most expensive elections in state history will explain why. coming up after the break. and also president biden is going to be giving his first joint address to congress that will be happening tonight. we'll tell you what he's expected to go over in a live report from washington and talking some warm weather, some sunshine in the forecast ahead of us after a cool start to this morning. daytime highs today rise into the 70's. >> and in the 80's for many of our inland spots. breaking it down in your forecast. and as you leave your house this wednesday morning. we'll take you a little under 9 minutes to make it to the fremont street exit. >> from the east bay into the city look at more bridges and your drive times coming up your drive times coming up after the break.

governor newsome. he actually saw it with his own eyes on a visit that happened on april 21st. he then proclaimed a state of emergency in sonoma and mendocino counties due to the concerning condition seen in the russian river watershed lake mendocino is at 43% of target capacity in lake sonoma that 62%, both the lowest they've seen say officials declaring a local drought emergency provide sonoma county with more resources. as i was set saying that they really want to support the agricultural and the economy. wheelchair industry could really be impacted by they're hoping maybe even some funding would help one supervisor even said this drought could even have larger impact than just drinking water and conservation efforts. this could really affect our local agriculture, meaning we could see less crop. we can also see cost to local producers and that would have an effect on our entire state in our country. while these local leaders seek federal funding

everyone at home has to do their part. and now it's about saving every single supervisors saying there's no water to waste. so after the declared this, there's a lot to be done. now the governor has asked federal officials for this funding for these resources and the next update on what happens next should be around may 11th. but in the meantime, we all hearing this right now we have to do our part reporting live in santa rosa. sarah stinson kron 4 news. thanks a lot to her. >> 5.33. the time in the south bay. a man now facing charges after investigators say he stabbed his transgender girlfriend to death. kron four's. dan thorn has the story from milpitas. >> well, this loss has been heartbreaking and stunning for the family. they considered italia a role model for those in the trans community and they're hoping that her death brings awareness to domestic violence. >> full holding back tears cra old. the remembers her best
