investigation is far from over. >> i don't think they believe that they're off the hook. i think most of the people who are engaging in this kind of activity, they they know how dangerous it is. they try to take measures to make themselves anonymous, and we take measures to try to identify as many of these folks as we can. >> authorities say everything from license plate readers to video can be helpful in identifying the people responsible. they say more arrests and seizure warrants could be coming soon in mountain view and ruben, ktvu, fox two news all along the peninsula, samtrans is enacting new safety measures to try to protect its drivers. >> as ktvu jesse gary explains, it comes as drivers face an increasing number of threats from riders. >> samtrans bills itself as the peninsula's public transit connector, but increasingly it's bus operators are targets of attack. >> the driving part, i would say about 20% of the job and the 80% is dealing with the public.

comes after an airstrike killed several iranian leaders in syria last week. tehran now asking the u.s. to step aside as they prepare their response. >> iran does not want a war with israel and certainly does not want one with the united states because that would mean they lose their regime. >> israel's military says an airstrike in southern lebanon killed a hezbollah commander and fighters on monday in tel aviv, trying ktvu. fox two news. >> air quality regulators say there's no reason to be alarmed if you happen to see some smoke coming from angel island, the bay area air quality management district says it is burning items aimed at reducing hazardous fuel loads. now through wednesday. >> all right. and temperatures warm up now through wednesday and into thursday. and then they'll drop off again towards the weekend as a low pressure gets close to the coast. very similar to the low pressures we've seen the last few weeks. a cut off, low potential for some scattered showers is on on

friday into saturday. we'll see. it's going to move around a lot, so we're not going to put it in stone yet. these are the temperatures from today. in the meantime, we are rolling with some really, really nice spring weather. and that means this time of year, tree pollens even, not even even bushes are starting to blossom. so if you're a tree, pollen suffer and many folks are tree pollens are funny because they're, they're red light level. right. so they it's not like grasses. they have to get up with wind. tree pollens come down. and so they're in the atmosphere a lot. and a lot of people suffer when you're suffering hay fever, especially this time of year. most likely it is tree pollens. and these are the wind conditions for now. kind of breezy westerly winds generally airport sfo gusting to 31. that's the san bruno gap. it just funnels through. they put the airport there for a reason because those northwest winds allow for that takeoff in the northbound direction. right. you want the wind blowing out the plane. you also want to land into the wind as well. so it's interesting if you look at how they put these airports and where they put them, there is

the next system that stays to the north for a while. and then this whole area wants to drop down on friday, and it's not a real cold storm. it's would be a very unsettled storm. temperatures are running ahead of where they were yesterday by about ten degrees. here's the model for tomorrow morning. i'm just going to click through it because all the way this thing goes through wednesday and into thursday morning, nothing changes. maybe a little bit of fog shows up as we get into wednesday morning. the forecast highs for tomorrow then warmer than today by another 3 or 4 degrees. and then we maybe, maybe even tomorrow we might see a couple of low 80. so really nice weather the weekend. i know you got plans because it's just that time of year. all the kids have sports. let's keep an eye on it right now. this thing is going to speed up. it could slow down, it could fall apart. it could miss us completely. so let's just give it a couple of days and then we'll dial in. we'll look at it tonight with a new model runs. but you get you get the idea. don't don't don't don't fret yet. i'll see you back here at ten okay. >> no fretting yet. thank you.

as he makes history. >> in a season where the san jose sharks could make history for futility on the ice, a glimmer of hope and another type of history sits between the goal pipes. >> it's pretty crazy. it's like since i've been traded, this whole thing, it kind of felt like a little bit like a dream, you know? i mean, it's a dream come true, but it still doesn't, like, feel like real. >> 26 year old devin cooley is the man behind the mask during thursday's sharks practice. if this ice feels like home following a trade from buffalo, it should. he's the first bay area hockey player to make the trek from junior hockey to ahl to nhl stardom in his home arena. >> i can't even explain how surreal this feels. >> his parents, scott and hannah cooley, are los gatos natives. they say a substitute stint as a goalie at the age of five struck a chord. >> he would beg people to shoot

pucks on him, just beg his brothers, me, his mom, anybody. >> and then when he was inside, they were doing knee hockey. so we had portable nets and little hockey sticks. so if it wasn't enough on the outside, the inside, they were still playing some form of hockey. >> over the years, devin's skill grew as he won championships with junior sharks, then a triple-a team in high school, and a scholarship to the university of denver, a once in a lifetime opportunity to go play pro or play in college, then consider playing pro. >> so we support anything that he wanted. >> a month ago, he was traded to his hometown team for a seventh round draft pick. >> so it was like a total shock, you know? but once i heard the news, like i was so happy because it meant that i got to go home and play for the hometown team. and you can't put a price on that. >> sharks head coach david quinn it's a hard, hard adjustment. a lot of guys can't do it. but you know, he's done a really good job just coming here every day and wanting to get better, working hard. and i'm excited for his next opportunity in san

jose. >> jesse gary ktvu, fox two sports. >> yeah, good luck to devin cooley and thanks to roberta gonzales for bringing us that fine piece. and jesse did a fine job on it. >> yeah, we were talking about caitlin clark as well, and what she's done for the sport today at school. my children's school, it was nc two a day. you can wear whatever. yeah. caitlin clark t shirt for my daughter. >> your daughter i love it. >> yeah. was it on the map? you know, you know, even at the beginning of the season. but it is. >> yeah. she's elevated the sport of women's college basketball to a new level that we have never seen. >> and so many people are tuning and it's great. it's great for women's basketball. fantastic. >> okay. meantime blake snell and the giants a couple of strikeouts already. not that i was watching. not that i was running it. >> but we'
