seven storm impact scale. this is a level one storm through this evening. we expect more scattered showers, but they will become more widely scattered later. in the evening. maybe a couple of isolated downpours. winds gusting 15 to 35mph. as we look at the forecast animation, you can see that after about 9:00, there won't be much left to this storm, just a couple of little impulses moving through, producing some brief showers. and after midnight it should be just about over. also later tonight, the wind gusts will diminish. we'll be left with rainfall totals generally under five hundredths of an inch of rain, but cold air is coming in behind it. i'll tell you about this frost advisory and the seven day outlook a little bit later. >> dan and omar okay, spencer, thanks very much. uh- p-g-and-e's crews are making progress to get the power back on. here's a look at the outage map right now. at last check about 26,000 customers are still without electricity across the bay area, but that is down from 38,000 earlier today. >> the majority of the power outages are in the north bay. abc seven news reporter tara campbell has been talking to p-g-and-e's and the people who live there, and she's here live

for us tonight. tara yeah, yeah. >> ama. well, earlier today, when we were here at the service center, it was one crew after another leaving as we were getting details from p-g-and-e's. and as you can see behind me, you may be able to uh. we did have a few trucks coming in just a few moments ago, but we were out earlier today. speaking to folks who still are experiencing these power outages right up there here. >> the tree went through my brother's truck. >> residents in west marin county and beyond are still wrestling with the aftermath of sunday's massive storm. >> way up on the hill up there, it uprooted, fell all the way across, almost hit the house and took out his new truck. anthony giacomi lives in san geronimo valley, an area still without power. you end up throwing your food away if you don't have a generator and you should have a generator for heat p-g-and-e's crews out in full force across the north bay, calling it the most damaging single day storm ever. >> on sunday, we experienced a significant storm. in fact, the

most powerful storm uh- most damaging storm in p-g-and-e's history in sonoma county, some businesses are still closed. >> trees still blocking roads and more wet, windy conditions. >> more than 2000 spans of wire that have been damaged that we need to re string uh- 750 poles that have been damaged and need to be replaced. uh, and multiple locations of either cross arm or transformer damage that again need to be repaired and replaced. >> and while most people's power has been restored, there are still some tough to reach places in many cases, those are the most challenging and damaged locations, with access issues, including multiple trees down road access in some cases having to hike in or restore power by helicopter, and pga, he says. for some customers, there could still be a bit of a wait, but we do have estimated times of restoration tomorrow and friday and even into the weekend in some cases. meanwhile, back in west marin, some residents are just grateful they dodged the damage.

>> it's been wild. we live up near up with next to the big trees right above us, so we had some big top of a big fir tree come down, but luckily we were lucky. now as you just saw in that story, there are still plenty of trees down, power lines as and as png, png crews work on restoring this power. >> they're asking people to be careful if you're out there driving or walking. while most people may have their power back, there are still plenty of hazardous spots throughout the bay area, particularly up here in the north bay. dan. ama. >> all right, tara, thank you for that update in south san jose, students are going to school without power and without heat. >> abc7 news south bay reporter dustin dorsey spoke with frustrated parents, all wondering when the lights will come back on. >> first, students at baldwin elementary school in south san jose, their morning checklist consisted of packing books, backpacks and flashlight lights. power has been off here since sunday, but classes have been on. >> it's a little troublesome

because the kids don't have heat. do they have lights? and primarily safety? um, that's our my main concerns pictures shared with us show very little light put out by lanterns and power strips packed with plugs. >> the students, meanwhile, looking pretty chilly on what was a wet, windy and cold day in san jose and co doesn't have a strict temperature range, but it does say that it has to be within a comfortable, uh, conditions. >> um, that might not be the exact wording, but it does say that. and it also mentions that there has to be adequate lighting, um, in order for school to be in session. i think that my interpretation of adequate might have been different than the superintendent's. the oak grove school district said the students are being cared for and in a safe environment, but school was optional. >> the district gave guardians the choice to keep their children home. after three days in the cold and dark, the district and its families are all hoping for the same thing. >> well, i hope the electricity comes back as soon as possible because the kids need lights, you know.

>> nearby p-g-and-e's crews were working to repair snapped power poles in the pouring rain. schools are usually prioritized, but p-g-and-e's says the damage is so extensive it's taking longer to repair. >> we had not only one, but several trees that were down, multiple broken power poles, several spans of wire transformers. um, it was like a hurricane in this area. >> p-g-and-e's expects restoration work to be finished tonight. if not, they'll provide temporary generators tomorrow to get the lights back on for students in south san jose. dustin dawsey abc seven news. for updates on what's affected by power outages and storm damage around the bay area, we have it all in one place for you. >> very easy to find. abc seven news.com and the abc seven bay area app. >> we are in the countdown to the super bowl. the 40 niners will play the kansas city chiefs this sunday in las vegas. we want to go live to abc seven news sports director larry beil. >> yeah, he is in vegas once again. all right. larry how's it going? >> it's going better for me than

the 40 niners thus far. just because i don't have to run around on a bad field. uh- the quality of the 40 niners practice field is once again an issue that started on monday. the niners, they're not happy with it at unlv, nfl commissioner roger goodell said, quote unquote, the field is playable. that's not great. it's playable though. and today the nfl players association weighed in on this matter, saying that field is not up to snuff. the 40 niners at this point clearly irritated by the situation. now, we had a normal practice and you we didn't practice there the rest of the week. >> oh yeah. we're not going to change our whole schedule up. we'd have to go to early in the morning, mess everything up. so this is the best choice we got. >> are you satisfied with that choice? >> um, we're here. we're practicing on it. i mean, everyone has their preferences and wish things were better, but we'll deal with the field how it is. >> i mean, today we didn't have as an aggressive practice just in terms of the hard running, the cutting and stuff. that's

tomorrow. so so, uh, but today i feel like it was pretty good, just in terms of us getting out there and, and sort of you know, moving around, you know, light running and whatnot. so, um, that was that. so we'll see tomorrow though, how it is. >> and this is clearly a situation that needs to be monitored. the problem is that the nfl decided to lay a grass field over the top of the artificial turf surface at the university of nevada, las vegas, and that field is spongy and we've had a ton of rain, so that isn't helping either. there are patches of that field where it looks like the grass has died, and you just don't want to risk injury to anybody heading into the super bowl. if you're wondering about the chiefs, the chiefs are technically the home team for super bowl 58. this flip flops every year between the nfc and the afc. so the chiefs got their choice and they chose the raiders indoor facility so they don't have to deal with any of this. uh, but

but just one final thought on it . uh, the nfl last year made about $12 billion in profit field quality should not be an issue at the super bowl. they got enough money to deal with it. but in this case, it is what it is. so you can see the niners frustrated. you just hope nobody gets hurt out there. yeah uh, we'll have more coming up later in sports. yeah, yeah. for now, live in las vegas larry biel abc seven sports. we'll see you in a bit. sorry larry. >> thanks very much. yeah, that's a shame. the whole thing. >> it certainly is. and hey, we sent our own abc seven news team to las vegas to cover the game, the fans and the excitement all week long. we will hear live from abc seven news reporter j.r. stone at 630 when? >> well, when you got to go, you got to go. but in san francisco's north valley, you got to wait. next, a live update on why it's taking so long to build $1 million bathroom. >> and speaking of money, find out just how lucrative hacking was for cyber criminals last year

shocked by its high construction costs, delays and politics surrounding it. there is finally a new date for its ultimate installation. abc seven news reporter lyanne melendez is in the newsroom with the how when and leanne why? for pete's sakes , it's taken so long. >> dan, what a saga this has been. this was a journey that started with $1.7 million in state funding. then the outrage of the community. then two out of state business owners saving the day. and now finally, a date for the installation. of what may be the most coveted toilet in the history of san francisco. the noe valley town square is a small refuge in a bustling little neighborhood where reading is rewarded. dogs are looked after and camping is certainly not allowed. there's no smoking, no feeding the birds, no littering, no glass containers and still no bathroom . >> but it would be helpful to have a toilet here because there

are very few. there's no public toilets on 24th street at all. >> for people who are just visiting, you know, a tourist who's got a got to go. we have an emergency. >> we have to make a pee pee. it's good to have a toilet. >> the drama surrounding the proposed toilet reads like an afternoon soap opera. the initial cost of $1.7 million shocked even the most skeptical of san franciscans. how could a 150 square foot bathroom cost that much? >> why not? why would it be? you know, is the city? >> last year the city's recreation and parks department gave us a long list of things involved when building a no frills bathroom, such as landscaping, design permits and environmental reviews. >> staff time permit fees, and architecture and engineer ing required to make sure everything works and fits together. >> but when people. criticized it for being financially excessive, the city backed off and turned to two out of state vendors who offered to donate a prefabricated, modular bathroom

and provide free architect and engineering services. all they needed to do was to find local union workers to install the toilet. at the time, it was good publicity. after all, the noe valley public toilet is so notorious that it now has its own wikipedia page. >> it was longer than typical. >> chad kaufman is the owner of public restroom company donating the toilet based in nevada for him, dealing with san francisco was convoluted building process has been a lesson in patience. >> municipal government just has to go through these proper procedures and every city is different. every county is different across the united states. it's just the way it is. >> meanwhile, the other donating company, volumetric building, complained that the high cost of local construction had delayed the installation. then that prompted rec and parks to write them a letter stating, quote. unfortunately, despite assurances of an efficient installation made to our general manager and in the press, the

restroom opening is now four months behind schedule. >> they had some unforeseen delays on their side, some staff out and then, um, you know, i think the cost of construction in san francisco was a little shocking to them. but all the issues have been resolved and we're very grateful for their gift. and um, everything's in place now. >> the residents of noe valley will finally get their bathroom. the on site construction preparations will begin next monday, and the bathroom delivered on march 7th. kaufman believes residents will be pleasantly surprised with the final product. >> chad. it was more than i expected. it was more than i expected. >> and as the neighborhood waits in anticipation for it to arrive, the lot is being put to good use by those faithful companion sons. now reckon parks will have spent only $300,000 to cover their end of the deal, so

permit fees, staff time and all those little things that here in the city. in san francisco add up in a big way. now remember, everything else was donated. so if my math is correct and i think it is, the city will have $1.4 million left over for another similar bathroom project in the bernal heights neighborhood. but i can tell you, dan, you know, i think this was a win win situation for the city. and did you see how they painted it red? 40 niners red. clever i like it. >> no, i do too. and the way you break it down, leanne, it does sound like a win win. thanks so much. >> all right, turning to our weather man. we've got some downpours today. again >> yeah, the last thing we really needed. but what we do need, it seems like we're about to get. and spencer christian is here with that. >> you're right about that, dan. and we've got a string of dry days coming our way. but not until that stretch tomorrow. here's a look at live doppler seven. you can see what's happening right now. we have had some downpours today and we

still have a couple left. there's not much left to the storm, especially in the more densely populated areas. but over in the santa cruz mountains, we've got some downpours right now and excuse me, southeast of morgan hill, some steady rain as well. so here's what's left of the system. you can see the main body of the storm sweeping. well to our south and southeast. so just a few more sprinkles and scattered showers tonight and we should be out of this rain. so move along and take a look at the exclusive abc seven storm impact scale. this is a level one storm through this evening. we expect a few more scattered showers, possibly a couple of isolated downpours. winds gusting up to about 35mph. but those wind gusts will diminish later tonight just as the rainfall is moving out as well. here's the forecast animation 830 tonight. maybe a little impulse swinging down from the north bay through the golden gate, down into the san jose area. then after that, not much at all. so after midnight or so we don't really expect any measurable rainfall. it is getting cooler as cold air is coming in behind the frontal system associated with this storm. you can see right now the

24 hour temperature change showing it's 3 to 5 degrees cooler right across the entire region. then last night at this time, it's a 50 right now in san francisco, 50 degrees also in san jose, san mateo and half moon bay. low 50s at oakland and hayward of the temperature readings as we look at traffic moving swiftly and smoothly across the golden gate, 48 degrees in santa rosa, petaluma, 46 upper 40s at napa, fairfield, livermore, concord at 50 degrees and we go to our frost advisory, which will be in effect from 10:00 tonight to 9 a.m. tomorrow for the north bay interior valleys. frost will form in numerous locations as low temperatures are expected to dip as low as about 33 degrees in the chilliest locations. in fact, as we look at the bigger picture of overnight lows, you can see we expect a mid to upper 30s in concord, livermore, fremont, up in the north bay, 33 at santa rosa, 36 at napa. so it's going to be pretty chilly. highs tomorrow with a possibly a couple of isolated showers in the mid 50s tomorrow. and we still have a coastal flood advisory in effect for the san francisco bay shoreline and the

interior valleys of the north bay until saturday morning, especially during the peak high tides. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. and we talked about a string of dry days coming. our way here. they are starting tomorrow. so again, there may be an isolated shower or two tomorrow. but generally we're talking about a dry day. we're certainly talking about a dry days friday, saturday and sunday. and the warm and dry days. monday, tuesday and wednesday as high temperatures move back into the low to mid 60s. wow. when shirt sleeve weather. yeah it is. >> i don't remember the last time i saw a panel like that. spencer with just dry days, no rain in a while. it's been a long time. >> i certainly don't remember, but i'm happy to see it. i'll remember this one. yes, for sure. thank you. >> okay. coming up. no new gas stations in antioch. is just one part of a historic environment. pled for 89 years... believes in continuous improvement... like rounded corners that resist peeling, with an array of active ingredients... and sizes to relieve your pain. salonpas. it's good medicine.

steps to fight climate change. today the mayor signed a pledge to reject public investment in fossil fuel infrastructure projects, and abc seven news reporter anser hassan explains why the mayor believes that pledge will lead to real change. >> climate change with the stroke of a pen, antioch becomes the first us city to pledge to no new invest of public money in fossil fuels. >> our city. we have a we have a lot to do as it relates to mitigating climate change. and obviously one city can't do it all by itself. and so i'm happy to be the first mayor to do this. antioch mayor lamar hernandez thorpe signed the global mayoral pledge put forth by pacific environment, the organization works with the united nations to push for systemic environmental reform. >> he commits to removing authority. from existing land use documents for any new, renewed or expanded fossil fuel infrastructure on city property. >> mayor hernandez thorpe says

the proclamation is not just symbolic, it will lead to real policy change. the pledge includes no new oil or gas drilling, no new gas stations in the city, no new power plants or pipelines, and no gas connections to new buildings, he adds. the cities must lead the way. >> we control land use. we control the decisions that make communities and so any bold step you can do to mitigate any new fossil fuel infrastructure in our communities is so critical and can only be done by cities, the mayor says. >> antioch is already feeling the effects of climate change. he says rising sea levels are leading to more salt water in the san joaquin delta, once a source of fresh drinking water. despite that, the mayor knows there could be political costs because contra costa county has historically been. a hub for oil and gas drilling. >> this is not easy, and there's a reason why lots of mayors haven't signed on to this, because you're literally picking a fight with very big interest groups. >> the mayor says the city will work closely with labor groups to protect jobs as the city

transitions opens. >> we want to make sure that we do this in a way that that that works with our our labor partners to ensure we lean off correctly and keep people employed in antioch. >> anser hassan abc seven news. >> coming up next, the safety concerns around waymo cars we're talking about both inside and outside. the self-driving vehicles. >> i'm j.r. stone, we are live in las vegas. this evening at a special super bowl pride event. and earlier today we were talking with 40 niners fans. some of them from kansas city. we'll explain after the break. >> the abc seven storm impact scale today. storm is level one. that means light rain. so keep an umbrella handy and drive safely. track today's storm anytime on the abc seven news app. download it now

about the safety of driverless cars. >> abc seven news reporter luz pena has the story. a couple minutes into his waymo ride, robert moreno said the cool feeling of getting an invitation to ride on a driverless vehicle quickly shifted. >> and some some panic set in. >> um, just owing to the situation itself on saturday, robert and his husband said a person who looked homeless was trying to cover the sensors of the vehicle. >> as the light turned green. >> we felt trapped in the sense that we didn't know what to do in that instance. we didn't really have an understanding. do we get out? was it safe to get out of the car? >> were you concerned for your safety? >> we were, because of the situation. >> the vehicle didn't move and minutes later that person walked away. waymo emailed them, saying in part, when a pedestrian attacks the vehicle, we advise riders to remain inside the vehicle. we looked into the potential of someone getting inside the vehicle. now, when a waymo is active, the door

handles are hidden. as you can see, no one can get inside the vehicle from the outside. the only way to get in the vehicle is to click on lock. that's when the handles pop out. scott mora, uc berkeley's faculty director for the program for advanced transportation technology, or path, explained why the waymo vehicle responded the way it did when those sensors are blocked, it's equivalent to basically someone putting a blindfold over the eyes of a driver and they're unable to move sensors and visibility are key. on tuesday in the potrero hill neighborhood, a cyclist was hit by one of these vehicles. in a statement, waymo said in part the cyclist was occluded by the truck and quickly followed behind it, crossing into the waymo vehicles path when they became fully visible. our vehicle applied heavy braking but was not able to avoid the collision. >> we're really relieved that it seems that the person's injuries were minor, but they very easily

could have been much worse. the response that we saw from waymo seeks to put the cause of the crash onto the person who was biking. >> we studied the safety of avs and it's not there yet. it's not human level safe to robert. >> he blames the challenges of the city, not waymo. >> an experience like this. um, it is a teaching moment in san francisco. >> luz pena abc seven news. new developments former oakland police chief laurent armstrong is suing the city of oakland and mayor shengtao over his firing last year. >> the suit claims armstrong was fired for criticizing the federal monitor overseeing the police department. his attorney claims the decision by mayor to violate labor law, and armstrong first amendment rights. >> she was involved. he made the decision and she underscored and described that hasty decision to terminate him, that the reasons were retaliatory. >> mayor tao fired armstrong a

year ago this month, claiming he mishandled misconduct charges against a police officer. an independent auditor cleared armstrong of any wrongdoing. in september. tao refused to comment about this. today, the city's attorney, the city attorney's office, did not return our calls either. it was last january when oakland was hit with a ransomware attack. it paid nothing but more than 600gb of sensitive information were dumped onto the dark web, including home addresses, driver's licenses and social security numbers. the town secured $10 million in funding to strengthen its information systems going forward. now, it turns out cyber criminals raked in a record amount in ransom payments last year, according to a report released today by crypto tracking firm chainalysis. cyber criminals extorted $1.1 billion from organizations around the world last year. ransom payments nearly doubled those in 2022, an increase share increasing share of ransoms paid are reportedly

over $1 million to as hackers target rich companies that can afford to pay. but attacks have debilitated schools and governments that simply lack the resources to defend themselves. >> as las vegas gears up for the super bowl, a man was arrested today for climbing the newest landmark on the strip, the self-proclaimed pro-life spider-man scaled the spear. look at the where the green arrow is. that's where he is. he was arrested immediately after climbing down. that man is known for similar stunts in other cities. he was arrested for scaling san francisco's salesforce tower in may of 2022. all right, let's take a look at this. a live look at allegiant stadium. it looks so nice right at night. this is where the super bowl will be played on sunday. you can see the giant logos for the 40 niners and chiefs all lit up on the side. that's cool. yeah. so let's go live to abc seven news reporter jared stone, who is in vegas at caesars palace. >> yeah. and so are a lot of 40 niners fans. jr well, they certainly are excited dan. >> so much going on here in las

vegas drinks and dreaming about a 40 niners super bowl win. is there a point like if you have enough gear that you'll give in and get tickets? >> i don't think i would do that. >> no, i don't think so. we're living on a retirement plan now, so fun times all around. >> talking about the retirement fund right there and back out here live. you can see the purple carpet here. the special pride event is super bowl pride event at that. talking about inclusion and acceptance in professional sports. this evening, the host of this event is lance bass of nsync. so we'll start seeing more and more people making their way. and some of those people are pretty well known. reporting live in las vegas, jr stone, abc seven news. >> that is great. all right thank you jr. now it might not seem like allergy season right now but it is for some people. >> and expert explains how winter weather is making allergies worse. stay

two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.

looks like it's freezing up a little. maybe because it's cold. it's so cold. it's snowing. the snow is falling out there. all right, well, if you are noticing your allergies getting a little worse right now, you're definitely not alone. yeah. >> reporter denise dador from our sister station in los angeles has a look at how winter weather could be affecting your allergies. reporter >> heavy storms can wash away allergens, but raindrops can also rupture. grass pollen grains into finer particles. so when wind whips it into the air, doctors say it can create a perfect storm for those with asthma and allergies. >> it's able to penetrate all the way deep into the lung and cause exacerbation of asthma. doctor jacob offenburger is a board certified allergist and

says anxiety during extreme weather can also trigger respiratory attacks. >> right now, he says, many people are confusing the aftermath of covid, flu and rsv infections for allergies because they're dealing with a post-viral cough, a situation that can last up to 3 to 6 weeks, he says. ask your doctor to test for viruses. if it is allergies, don't stop taking your regular preventive meds, but if none of that is working, you should contact your doctor or urgent care because you don't want the asthma attack to get worse. >> without a proper treatment. >> turning on your heater after a long while could be kicking up the dust in your air ducts or the cause of your symptoms could be dust mites, which thrive in humidity. so people with allergy to dust mite are going to suffer much more during the rainy season. doctor offenburger says leaks in your home will increase indoor mold allergens. one of the many irritants people need to prepare for following wild, wet weather. >> we know for sure that this rain is going to give us a very strong pollen season coming soon

. >> doctors say it's important to keep your rescue inhalers on you, even in the rain. always talk to your doctor about the best action plan for you. denise studer, abc seven news. >> all right, we're looking forward to some dry days in the seven day forecast, maybe even seven of them. see what to expect. spencer is back af are pretty much the same, but at fisher investments we're clearly different. (other money manager) different how? you sell high commission investment products, right? (fisher investments) nope. fisher avoids them. (other money manager) well, you must earn commissions on trades. (fisher investments) never at fisher investments. (other money manager) ok, then you probably sneak in some hidden and layered fees. (fisher investments) no. we structure our fees so we do better when clients do better. that might be why most of our clients come from other money managers. at fisher investments, we're clearly different. this ad? typical. politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter.

porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message. your heart is the beat of life. if you have heart failure, entrust your heart to entresto. entresto helps improve your heart's ability

to pump blood to the body. don't take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if you've had angioedema with an ace or arb. the most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high blood potassium. ask your doctor if entresto is right for you.

a blockbuster concert film. the eras tour will make its streaming debut on march 15th. >> tonight, a chance to travel back in time to the 1960s manhattan. in the latest episode of feud. capote versus the swans that's airing on fx. yeah the feud between the author and his elegant friends was still years away when capote invited hundreds of his friends to dress up for a masked black and white ball at the plaza hotel. >> the focus of our story from entertainment reporter sandy kenyon, is fashion. >> the past is like a foreign country, a writer once observed. they do things differently. there well, and so it was at the black and white ball in 1966. >> it's chaotic and marvelous and messy.

>> truman capote was at the height of his fame when he staged the ball at the plaza hotel, which has been recreated for the fx series. feud with tom hollander playing the writer. >> he would have obviously loved being fictionalized in this way. he would have loved the attention. >> capote's female friend is the ladies he called his swans were very particular about what they wore. it was all about presentation. >> that's the best way i can put it. >> costume designer lou eyrich was in charge of recreating their look, and had to make 800 costumes for the ball alone. >> it's like hundreds of things that you don't think about when you watch it. >> fashion designer zac posen was enlisted to create gowns for the swans to wear at the ball. >> this was a totally uh- new challenge for me. >> it came from executive producer ryan murphy, who told him, let's imagine that this has to be an exaggerated, bigger

version of what historically happened. so what's better for a swan than a pair of wings that actually open? up i was living in the time period in the making of these pieces. i'm sandy kenyon, abc7 news. >> feud. capote versus the swans episode three airs tonight on fx and streams tomorrow on hulu. both are owned by disney, the same parent company as abc seven. all right. >> are we done with the rain for the day or is more to come? >> let's hope we'll find out. spencer kristen is back. >> we are are almost done. here's a look at live doppler seven. you can see that what's left of the storm in terms of any significant rainfall is down in the santa cruz mountains. and way, way down south of our viewing area. so it's moving out, but it's still a level one storm on the exclusive abc seven storm impact scale through this evening, we could see a few more scattered showers possible. an

isolated downpour, gusty wind, but the gusts will be diminishing as we get into the late night hours. speaking of late night hours, colder air is filtering in later tonight and we have a frost advisory for the north bay interior valleys. it will be in effect from 10:00 tonight to 9:00 tomorrow morning. low temperatures will drop as low as about 33 degrees. you can see lots of locations inland will have lows in the mid to upper 30s. and here's the accuweather seven day forecast tomorrow. mid 50s for the highs. as we start to dry out. but we'll get much drier and milder as we progress into the seven days. and by the weekend, sunny skies, high temperatures around 60 early next week, mid next week. high temperatures in the low to mid 60s. so a nice dry spell and a nice warm up coming our way. >> we love it and we need it. >> we need it badly. yeah we do. >> thank you spencer okay. >> all right. another day closer to the super bowl, sports director larry beil is in las vegas. larry dan ama kyle shanahan has come really close to winning the super bowl, but he's fallen short on two

occasions. >> so how does the 40 niners head coach manage the stress and the pressure heading into another battle with the kansas city chiefs? that's next two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing,

for new honda dealers. >> good evening. larry biel. live in las vegas. as we count down to super bowl 5840 niners and chiefs you know winning super bowls creates an ever lasting legacy. and so does losing them kyle shanahan knows all about that. of course he watched his dad win a couple with the broncos. but as the 40 niners gathered this afternoon for their meeting with the media, the subject of kyle and pressure came up. how do you manage the stress of the situation on his niners blew a ten point lead against the chiefs four years ago. he lost a 25 point lead to tom brady and the pats. when kyle was the

offensive coordinator of the falcons. so managing the game, managing the stress, that is all part of the job. >> i mean, i think just the more you coach football, the more you go through, the more you don't. you don't try to make any absolute answers or philosophies in anything you understand. there's so many variables, there's so many different situations, and it comes down to one game. so you don't just sit there and be like, man, i learned this last game. i'm not going to do that the next game. well, that might be the right answer. the next game it might be the right answer. um, the next quarter, i mean, everything you got to take into account, this isn't just a plus or minus game. you have to evaluate everything. and there's a flow with how those 22 people move and the situation. and that's stuff you got to that's why you're never done. you're always continuing to work and continue to try to come up with a whatever the decision is that gives you the best chance to win. but i promise you, there's no consistent or automatic answer. >> it is a stressful job. there's no doubt about that. all right. so i'm here at radio row, which is located at mandalay bay . the 40 niners and the chiefs,

they are staying at lake las vegas where abc seven's chris pratt is chris pratt. uh- yeah. if we had chris pratt on the payroll, that would be probably nobody. nobody else. there'd be no money for anybody else. but but chris alvarez uh- it's only wednesday. um, i'm getting the names wrong anyway. uh, the niners and the chiefs are both out there far removed from the strip, and apparently lights. >> well, thank you so much, larry. ashley, i really appreciate this toss out here in lake las vegas. yeah so the chiefs are the chiefs are trying to build a dynasty. we know this . they've won or they've been in the super bowl four out of the last five years. patrick mahomes is a two time champ. and he says he doesn't mind if the rest of the world is rooting against him. >> i mean, they play hard every single play. they bring energy. um, and we know to take our best football. and so for us, we just have to come in with that intensity, um, to go out there and play, play our best. and if we don't, we'll lose the game.

>> it'll be the biggest, the best defense that we played this year. i think san fran's got the most, uh, the biggest front, the fastest, uh, linebackers that we've played. um, they play very good together, too. they got a lot of smart guys, a lot of veterans in the secondary. um that understand this offense. so it's going to take a collective unit and, uh, it's going to take touchdowns. i mentioned that earlier. it's going to take, uh, putting up six points instead of three. yeah >> it's going to be about getting one more point than the other team at the end of the day, wait to see what the niners and chiefs do. they're out here. they're secluded. they're getting ready for the biggest games of their life. and you know what? i don't mind being called chris pratt. i hope we see him on radio row. we can show them this clip. and chris pratt if you're out there, we're ready to have you on abc seven. you're already on air right now. >> haha. way to turn it into a pitch, i love it. chris alves reporting live. all right, uh, one final note before we go. beast mode. marshawn lynch is here. the pride of oakland. he has his own beast mode stores and he's got one at mandalay bay. fans were invited to do

their best pirate impersonations for lynch. the winners got to play the new video game from ubisoft. it's called bones and skulls. it launches february 16th, thus the pirate theme. abc seven sports sponsored by your northern california honda dealers. as we say goodbye. well, first of all, arg matey. and. oh does this hat brains look too big? >> i love it, that's a good part. it is. you guys are having fun and doing a great job, larry. good job. thanks so much i like that. >> yeah. if i could, if i could remember everybody's name, it'd be fantastic. >> oh, you get bleary working so many hours after. i know. >> all right. that is going to do it for this edition of abc seven news. i'm ama dave and i'm dan ashley for spencer christian. >> larry. uh, what's his last name again? >> beal. >> and all of us here. we appreciate your time. we'll see you again tonight. hello.
