outside of asia and the oldest in network america to the city's people with nearly a third of the population has asian roots. >> if there ever was an american city that personified apec, it's san francisco. this is the biggest gathering of international leaders the city has seen in nearly 80 years. as alyssa gourd reports, this is the biggest gathering. as we have been reporting, security will be tight. >> reporter: a group of chp officers filed in saturday night. a garage that's filled with law enforcement from all across the state as apec begins. among those in attendance are leaders, ceos and more than 20,000 people from around the globe. so security will be tight. but while saturday was the first official day, many barriers around the center are still waiting to be installed with road closures planned and

security zones only summit attendees will be able to answer. about a mile away, chinatown is hosting its second market this week. >> it is amazing. it is absolutely extraordinary the number of people that came out. >> reporter: and the crowds we ran into san francisco mayor london breed. she's hoping those attending the summit explore the city themselves. >> we're not pretending they don't exist. but we also have so much happiness, so much joy in our various neighborhoods, including chinatown. that's why we have so many people here tonight and last night. >> reporter: apec attendees and dignitaries were invited to this art and wine event on sunday. >> this is an art gallery where we have different artists of korean decent. we have a wine tasting out there at the bar. these are asian-owned vineyards. >> reporter: stewart has been working with apec delegates from

deeper into gaza city. the israel defense forces say they will facilitate evacuation routes from three hospitals in gaza city so that people can move south to safety. meanwhile, the palestinian health ministry is reporting three premature babies and five intensive care patients have died at the hospital because it went out of service this week amid heavy bomb partment and intense fighting just outside the facility. nbc news is still working to verify those claims. the prime minister netanyahu said yesterday gaza will be demilitarized after the war, and israel will continue to control security there. the situation in gaza remains critical as protests continue across the globe. secretary of state antony blinken is urging more humanitarian efforts saying for too many palestinians have been killed. and brand-new this morning moments ago, we learned the

israeli prime minister told kristin welker on "meet the press" there, quote, could be a potential deal to release hostages. i will ask her about that in five five minutes. in the south bay, that ongoing war loomed large over an anniversary gala for care last night. more than 1,000 people came together to celebrate the organization's work and ongoing mission. as "today in the bay" reports, it was a moment to both mark triumph and tragedy. >> reporter: security was tight here at the santa clara convention center, including additional police officers. but that didn't stop people from gathering here tonight to both mourn and move forward. prayers opened the event saturday. the theme, the american-muslim story. more than 1,200 people gathered to celebrate care's success.

but for some, this year's event is punctuated with sadness as many are mourning family killed in gaza. he has personally lost more than two dozen family members. >> both my parents were born in the gaza strip. we lost several family members, and we just lost one of our cousins who was a journalist who was killed yesterday. >> the ripple effect of the war in the middle east is an increase in hate crimes targeting bay area muslims. >> we have received dozens of complaints of islamic phobic incidents in the last couple weeks. complaints about children at school being bullied and harassed. people in workplaces feeling targeting and alienated by their workplaces, environment and their support for israel at those companies and complaints of violent hate crimes. >> reporter: a stanford student was a victim of a hit-and-run on campus. sheriffs deputies are now investigating the attack as a hate crime and released this

welcome back. please join me in welcoming kristin welker, chief white house correspondent and moderator of "meet the press." hi, christine. as always, thanks for joining us this morning. so great to see you. i want to jump right in that it

has now been five weeks and one day since the hamas terror attack on israel. you have an important interview with prime minister benjamin netanyahu this morning. nbc announced that he told you there could be a potential deal to release hostages. if true, that's a crucial development. >> kira, it is so good to be with you. the prime minister did say that. he would not give any details. he's been very tight lipped, but he did signal there may be some progress. he was cautious in his wording, so it is not clear what the time line might be. but he was very clear about the fact that because there has been this ground incursion, he believes that is why there is hope in getting those hostages out. he was very defiant in terms of depending israel's strategy right now. i asked him about the international pressure to try to

mitigate civilian deaths, and the prime minister says he doesn't want civilian death. one civilian death is too many, he says. at the same time, they are squarely focused on their broader goal of trying to eradicate hamas. so there were a number of key developments that came out of this discussion. we have all seen the images coming out from the hospital. the fact that people are suffering there because the hospital does not have fuel, doesn't have electricity. the prime minister telling me they offered to get fuel to the hospital and that the hospital rejected it. and, of course, the implication there being that hamas is trying to block any delivery of fuel. so just underscores how desperate the situation is in gaza. but we did cover a lot of ground. it is a fascinating conversation with the prime minister. >> we will definitely look forward to seeing that. quickly before i let you go, president biden appears to be taking credit for the democratic

wings this past tuesday. you have some experts from both sides of the aisle this morning. do they think that will help him gain momentum on the polls. joe manchin announcing he will not seek re-election. will that take votes away from biden? what are the rumblings? >> everyone is watching joe manchin very closely. yes, they are celebrating the fact that democrats had a strong night on tuesday. of course, the flip side is president biden got some really tough poll numbers this week, trailing former president trump in 5 out of 6 battleground states. that has set off alarm bells in democratic circles. the president affectively being advised by his campaign and by those around him, his allies to really sharpen his tone when it goes to coming after the gop front runner. the voting hasn't started on the republican side yet. but it underscores they do not

have any days to waste. of course, keeping a close eye on what joe manchin does because that could really shake up the race. >> and you did a remarkable job on wednesday at the debate. >> thank you, kira. >> so good to see you. we hope you join kristin for this morning's "meet the press." that exclusive interview with prime minister benjamin netanyahu and others. meet with press is on right after us at 8:00 a.m. and coming up in about 30 minutes from now, we will talk to political analyst larry gerston for our weekly segment. we will talk about ohio voters that came out to protect abortion rights on tuesday. what this means for the upcoming presidential election 2024. here is a look at the aftermath of a massive fire that led to governor gavin newsom declaring a state of emergency. this is damage on the 10

freeway. flames ripped through wooden palates at a storage yard, and that made traffic pile up all day. pictures posted by firefighters also show flames were hot enough to melt part of a fire truck. the freeway is still shut down this morning. no word yet on how it all started. karen bass is working with the secretary of transportation pete buttigieg and governor newsom to help l.a. recover from that. back here, a salute to our veterans for all they have done to serve our nation. hundreds of people turning out for parades in the north bay, the south bay. our own damien trujillo was the mc in downtown san jose. families lined the streets for the parade in petaluma as well. we thank our veterans. in the beast bay, a special veterans day aboard the "u.s.s.

hornet." wow. that flyover coming as the hornet marks 80 years since the aircraft carrier was commissioned and the 25th anniversary of its current role serving as a museum. hundreds of vets, family members, local leaders gathered to pay tribute for all that served. for many enlisted or drafted, they said the show of honor or respect means a lot. it is permanently docked in alameda, regularly open to the public. in the south bay, a museum is teaching children about india's biggest holiday of the year diwali. the five-day festival is celebrated by all different religions. today is officially diwali. yesterday the children's discovery museum hosted this performance of traditional dance. kids also got a chance to learn

about traditions around the festival and create art. and this, a sure sign the holidays are approaching faster than any of us are ready for them. 30 rock, the christmas tree arrived yesterday morning. the 80-year-old norway spruce was cut on thursday, made the 200-mile trip to its final destination in new york city. it stands 80 feel tall. it will be decorated with 50,000 led lights, crowned with a 900-foot swarovski star, covered in three million crystals. you can watch it right here on nbc bay area at 8:00 p.m. on november 29th. kelly clarkson will host with special appearances from savannah guthrie and hoda. it is crazy to hear that christmas music when you are saying more great weather today.

>> let's look at that foreforec. the sun is out there, but it is a chilly 42 degrees there. san jose good morning in the south bay. 48 to start. also starting to feel like christmas. look, they set up the tree right there. but those changes will start to come about. let's get you hour by hour through this sunday. we're still sticking with the 60s throughout the coast. make your way into this afternoon with a few more high clouds passing through. so it will feel a touch different than what we had yesterday. but there are major changes already forming in the pacific. we're seeing this low pressure system developing and it is going to tap into warm moisture out there. let's get you a closer look. it will tap into some moisture coming as far south as hawaii. right there, mostly headed our way for tuesday. the pattern and where this is heading is trending a little bit more to the north and a little bit to the coast as we head into

into tuesday, wednesday and thursday. so while the weather is dry right now, perfect opportunity to set yourself up for this week. most of that rain will impact the coastal mountains in the north bay. the santa cruz mountains also could get inches of rain piling up. let's get you that time line so you are prepared. tomorrow we will see the temperatures cooler dipping down into the 60s with a few more high clouds. here is that first event that will come our way for tuesday morning's commute. you have been warned. we will see that rain impacting the central bay moving north. if you don't see the rain showers, you will get more sunshine. but it will be hit or miss as we go into wednesday and thursday, the peak of this event that will also bring about some wind. be careful and prepare yourself as we go through this very wet weather over the next couple of days. our inland valleys 70s today, beautiful sunshine. but those changes, make sure you are getting your umbrellas

ready, our windshield wipers as you will see the rain impacting our days. san francisco very wet weather. we do have apec. there will be traffic. there will be slick roads. just give yourself that preparation time right now while the weather is still dry. we look to clear out more next weekend. >> thanks. 7:21. there is much more ahead. coming up, the warriors did not have draymond green down the stretch against cleveland. wh wh hey? h

my dry eye's made me a burning, stinging, 5-times-a-day,... ...makeup smearing drops user. i want another option that's not another drop. tyrvaya. it's not another drop. it's the first and only nasal spray for dry eye. tyrvaya treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease fast by helping your body produce its own real tears. common side effects include sneezing, cough, and throat and nose irritation. relying only on drops? not me. my own real tears are my relief. ask your eye doctor about tyrvaya.

good morning, everyone. i'm anthony flores. follow along because i have never seen this before. draymond green was ejected from cleveland. the ref was reviewing a foul committed against green, but found that draymond earlier made contact with a cleveland player. then assessed green a technical foul, his second of the game and

he was gone. it happened in the third quarter. draymond obviously not happy about it and did not go quietly to the locker room. now to the game. down by as many as 17. chris paul gives the warriors a one-point lead with the bucket. steph curry had 30 points and this assist to klay thompson. but it wasn't enough. the cavs beat the warriors 118-110. no time for the warriors to feel sorry for themselves. they're back on the court tonight against minnesota. >> just because we're home doesn't mean you can show up and win, especially with the talented teams that are coming in here. so we usually respond well to this type of feeling when you lose, and that will be the challenge for tomorrow, especially for that starting unit to get off to a good start. >> it is game day for the 49ers, and they are playing one of the marquee games in the nfl this weekend. the niners are facing the hot

est team in the league. the jags have won five in a row coming off the bye, the niners should be rested. they also have a sense of urgency to put an end to their three-game losing streak. >> we just need a win. had that feeling again of winning. and then get on a streak and roll. the second half of the season is huge. i feel like we all got rested up over the bye week, and this will be a stretch we all know is going to take what it takes. so this game is obviously huge for huge for us. college football. look who's in the house. that's mc hammer at san jose state. the spartans taking on their rival san jose state. big in the third quarter. and then the defense turns up the pressure. michael dansby comes up with the interception. he races back 98 yards for the touchdown. the spartans beat the bulldogs

42-18. this is such a sad, sad way for megan rapinoe's professional career to come to an end. >> megan rapinoe limps off the field less than five minutes into the championship match. the northern california native appeared to hurt her ankle in the final match of her iconic career. her team would lose the championship 2-1 to gatham fc. what a career. she is a two-time world cup champion, highlighted by her 2019 performance where she was named the best player at the world cup. that's a look at your morning sports. i'm anthony flores for "today in the bay". 7:27 right now. still to come, apec is here. it's bringing together president biden and other world leadersn i

but we will see more sunshine come about. more high clouds compared to yesterday. oakland good morning to you as we go throughout the day. the temperatures topping out in mid to upper 60s as we get you ready for what's ahead. there are major changes. we're watching an atmospheric river coming into the bay area. most centered through tuesday through thursday. we will walk you through that time line in a closer look and how you can prepare. where we see most of that rain coming up in ten minutes. back to you. thanks. we begin with this live look outside. barricades are out for the asia pacific economic summit. the week long event is bringing together leaders from 21-member countries that will bring president joe biden to san francisco. there is a lot riding on apec. president biden's first meeting since last november could be a pivotal moment. the stakes are also high for the city of san francisco itself. it is working to change the narrative surrounding its image.

during yesterday's opening remarks at apec, white house official nora todd said the decision to host the summit is a natural one. >> its deep cultural and economic ties to the region are visible around every corner. from the city's historic chinatown, the largest chinatown outside of asia and the oldest in north america to the city's people where nearly a third of the population has asian or pacific islander roots. >> she went on to say there was an american city that ser sonified apec it is san francisco. among those in attendance, those world leaders we mentioned from 21 member countries, ceos, more than 20,000 people from across the globe, so security will be tight around the center. law enforcement officers are

arriving from across california to help out. there will be secure zones. as we have been reporting road closures and traffic detours through this coming friday, the 17th. we ran into the san francisco mayor at the chinatown night market. she is hoping apec goers stay in the city at events like this. >> every major city has its challenges and san francisco is no different. we're not pretending they don't exist. but we have so much happiness and joy in various neighborhoods, including chinatown. that's why we have so many people here tonight and last night. >> dignitaries are arriving, attending events already across the city. some are public. some are private. businesses are telling us they hope it brings a boost that lasts well beyond the summit. as mentioned, this runs through friday, november 17th. but not everyone is rolling out the red carpet for apec attendies. planning a march from the plaza

to the center. it will be at noon today. protesters say they want to address a wide range of topics from wars to climate change and human rights. yesterday in san francisco, we caught up with wisconsin republican congressman mike gallagher. he chairs the house select committee on the chinese party. he met with prominent chinese dissents who spoke about problems within china's borders. >> we have high-level dialogue this week that we don't -- that human rights don't get thrown into the gutter, that we don't deprioritize the issues of human rights and democracy so that we can get a photo op. >> meanmeantime, president bidet to meet with chinese president g on wednesday for talks on trade and managing chinese relations. it will be the first meeting between the two leaders since last november at the g-20 in bali. from the schedule to the road

benjamin netanyahu said gaza will be demilitarized after the war and that israel will continue to control security there. the situation in gaza remains critical. protests continue across the globe. and our own secretary of state antony blinken is urging more humanitarian efforts, saying far too many innocent lives have been lost. as kristin welker mentioned, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu told her this morning on "meet the press," there could be a potential deal to release hostages. happening today, a memorial service on mayor island to honor navy crews who were lost during world war ii. the service will honor all 575 sub mariners who have served in the u.s. navy and those who have died. 7 mare island built submarines that took part in world war ii, 7 of those were lost in combat. today the mare island heritage

and many more people are impacted than you realize. so treatment and help is available for families who may be struggling with substance abuse. sometimes it is not as simple as just being able to stop their use. >> now, you can visit starthope.com for resources and information that may help you or loved ones start that journey to recovery. for stories like this, join us monday through friday on "today in the bay" starting at 5:00 a.m. on air. you can watch nbc bay area news whenever you want, 24/7 on roku and other streaming platforms. back to you. >> thanks, marcus. very important topic. you may have heard beginning today, it might cost more to protect yourself against covid or treat it. the public health emergency declaration required vaccination, treatments and tests be free. that emergency ended in may. but california law kept benefits going for another six months,

and that ended yesterday. so starting today, that new covid vaccine could cost you upwards of $100 if you go out of network. treatment costs are also expected to rise if you don't stick to your health plan. however, most insurance plans still offer the vaccine and other benefits for free. 7:38 right now. next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. good morning. shoplifting continues to be a big problem. this ma heen made right here in the bay area might be a solution. and it could change the look of stores everywhere. i'm chris

we go on into the next couple of days. by monday morning, still that rain sticking to northern california. a few more clouds passing through. the main event, where we will tap into that atmospheric river pressure, the wind comes about for the commute. it might be a day you stay home and avoid the roadways as they could be more slick. watch as we get more widespread rain on wednesday. so tuesday that rain will stick. mostly san francisco to the north. by wednesday, we're seeing more rain for the entire bay area and for the central coast. as we go into thursday and friday, seeing possible wet roadways for thursday and middle of the commute hours and spotty rain sticking with us thursday. today and tomorrow while the weather is still dry, you can check a couple things off your list like cleaning the gutters, making sure the windshield wipers work. it will be a busy week in san francisco and a very wet week as we go on into this upcoming workweek. inland seven-day forecast. a mild day today. enjoy it while we have it

because temperatures next week dip down into the 60s and we have some very wet days ahead as we go into tuesday, wednesday and thursday. could see clearing into friday and saturday of next week. but definitely that pattern change and more of that moisture coming in. want to make sure everybody is prepared for what's ahead. >> i'm so bummed. 20,000 people here for apec and we have rain. >> sorry about that. >> but we need it, so what can you do. much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up, larry joins us to discuss ohio voters' vote to enshrine abortionights within r

a new report claims elon musk's race to mars is putting spacex workers in danger. the data from the biggest spacex faciiies found some 600

previously undisclosed work related injuries. some workers say spacex skirted safety protocols and product testing leading to severe injuries. "reuters" says it is all because musk has accelerated work deadlines and that forced long hours at a breakneck pace. cnbc reached out to spacex about the report but has not yet heard back. you might have noticed many stores around you say ramped shoplifting is driving price up. chris gamura has an inside view on how. >> good morning. it is a sad state of affairs. perhaps you have seen the new secure shelves. lots of stores are locking up merchandise. you have to wait for a worker to unlock it to get what you want. yes, these padlocks can scare off thieves but also drive away shoppers, a catch 22. here's one businesses story. >> at the time they had $800,000

a year in theft. and, so, they found, okay, let's solve this problem. let's lock it all up. they locked it all up. and the next year they revenue went down by $3.5 million. so they created a bigger problem. >> reporter: david helds a small company that's looking to make big changes inside stores everywhere. this is his team's shoplifting solution, reinvented store shelves. a gigantic vending machine that can replace an entire aisle or several aisles. we will take you behind the scenes to show you how these automated retailers to stop thieves. plus, we'll map out when you might see the store of the future land in your neighborhood. i will see you again tight after the game. >> we'll see you then, chris. thanks so much. last week's election victory for pro choice voters in ohio, a reliably republican state sent

ripples of celebration and confusion across the country. the pro choice outcome was the seventh since last year's dobbs decision which set the rules for abortion. nbc bay area analyst larry is here. great to see you. i have a broad question. so what did tuesday's results, if any, indicate for both sides of that abortion debate moving forward? >> that's so interesting. the first thing we notice is that it's really happening state after state after state. if you think about it, this was the seventh state since the dobbs decision to go ahead and say people have a right to abortion. okay? and the fourth state that's a red state. i mean, kansas, kentucky, montana. if you have a map to show you all this stuff, it is amazing these states are popping up and voting for these kinds of rights, especially the red states. >> uh-huh. it is surprising. why -- i mean, for so many of

us, this outcome has been confounding. but for many others, very exciting. why are we facing that difficulty? >> kira, that is the question. that's the question. because if you check out, what's the most important issues around, okay? almost all the surveys point to, well, it's the economy. it's the economy. it's the economy. and we see these kinds of things again and again and again. this last time around, the economy was 51% on people's minds. 15% said abortion is the most important decision, right. look at what happened on ohio. record turnout on this issue. because of that, you see things happening that nobody ever expected. why? why? well, some people think if you think about the right to abortion, it's a very private decision. you know? and people aren't talking about it, but they're voting about it. >> right. >> and that's the secret. that's the secret that people

don't realize. just because you don't indicate it on a question doesn't mean it is not important to you inside. that's the secret. >> right. and, so, i had discussed with kristin welker president biden relishing in these election turnouts. do you think this is welcome news overall for democrats as a party as their president has languished in recent polls? >> they shouldn't get too excited too fast. hold off the dancing. because exit polls show that about 20% of the voters were libertarians. libertarians really don't want government in their lives. they have little in common with the democrats who do like government except on this issue. stay out of my life. stay out of my life. if you put it that way, you are going to see democrats not in such good shape as they might think. on the other hand, republicans are saying, oh, my gosh. what are we going to do? if you are looking forward as to what has to happen for 2024, democrats want to marry this issue to democratic party

candidates. look, we're the only ones that consider your lives important. republicans have to find a way to distance themselves from this issue because every time republicans come out and say, we want a really tight limit on abortions, they get slapped one way or the other. and that's the biggest problem of all. >> and then we also have that libertarian issue of potentially joe manchin saying he's not going to run for re-election. saying he's going to run third party for president and this issue will continue to play out. larry, as always, we will see you next week. thanks for joining us this morning. it is just shy of 7:52 right now. a quick look at the top stories we're following, including apec is here bringing together world leaders. leaders. me
