like pittsburg, martinez, pleasanton, dublin and piedmont. it is made up of 18 chapters across the east bay and it is relatively a new idea. now, its chapters have authorized strike if the contract deal is not reached. so far the individual districts involved are not commenting. happening today, contra costa county fire protection district and cal fire are working to boost wildfire protections. there will be a groundbreaking this morning for the new shaded fuel break project. a fuel break is a strip of land where trees and brush have been reduced to limit the fire's ability to spread. the fuel break will encompass nearly 270 acres of open space across lafayette and walnut creek. the tentative completion day is 2025. an emotional night at chase center as the warriors hit the first time since the death of a beloved assistant coach. >> he was a huge part of who we are, a part of our soul.

showers to the north bay on and off starting late tomorrow night into early friday morning. we're going to see some of those showers basically farther to the north, not expecting any widespread rain. i will be tracking that for you. mike, how are the gas prices looking? going down a couple of cents in the south bay. a few krebs lower in santa clara. $3.61 for platinum gas and from rotten robbie. holding with the lowest in concord, $3.65 on clayton road ultra or national station, same block. vallejo standing out at north bay's best at $3.67 right off i-80. vallejo is now getting lower in other parts of the bay area. looking at speed just fine, picking up the crew on 87. that slowing starting to clear. north of 680 just cleared in the last few minutes as far as the northbound crew as well.

good thursday morning to you. it is right now 5:13. as we take a look at our day planner for concord, it is going to be a chilly start with upper 40s at 8:00. but then going throughout the day, nice and sunny as our temperatures top out at about 60 degrees. we will get a break from the rain, but some areas still have a chance so we'll talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. over here at the golden gate bridge we see the roadway. a little mist has settled there and on the lens as well. nothing dramatic but there will be patches of fog and we will watch by any impact by slicker roadways but calmer seas to report. we will show you what is going on in the east bay coming up. good morning. happy thursday to you. the s&p 500 hit another all-time high. nasdaq is up for the fifth straight day. shares of tesla are under pressure. we will get to that in a second.

tesla, the most sold car in california but tesla says sales are down significantly and predicts growth will be notably slower this year. the car company cut prices on its cars several times last year. tesla ceo elon musk confirmed tesla is working on an even less expensive sedan, something in the $20,000 range. musk says they're very far along on the new car, though he tends to under estimate timelines on new vehicles. he also said chinese brands would demolish american evs unless washington puts up trade barriers. musk repeated his request for more stock. musk sold off a lot of shares to buy twitter. he wants 25% of common shares, which means tesla would have to dilute your shares to create them for the boss, or they could create two sets of shares, one voting, the other with no power. that's the way facebook does it. musk said 25% was just the right number. quote, that's not so much i could control the company even

if i go bonkers, he said. but it is enough that i have a strong influence. in about -- well, it is called 14 minutes, we will get gdp numbers for the fourth quarter. they will be probably a little slower than they were, but we want that, remember, because we want the fed to slow the economy down because of inflation. we will have that coming up in an hour. >> all right. thanks. >> you bet. now to a live look in san jose where a new chick-fil-a restaurant is being proposed near the downtown area. as "the mercury news" reports it would be at the corner of west san carlos street. a few retailers and a parking lot would be demolished to make room for the fast food restaurant. it is not clear whether chick-fil-a plans to buy the san carlos site. it has to be approved by city leaders. j-lo will be back in new york on "saturday night live." >> she will be joined by newly crowned golden globe winner. ♪ ♪

>> exactly. maybe you can clear up the forecast. >> definitely clear for us for today. looking good. we need a break from the rain. we've had two storms this week, and i think that's enough. so let's just chill out for a little bit. we are going to see a mostly cloudy start to our morning, some patches of fog here and there, but we do have a clear view as we take a live look outside in oakland. a lot of commuters already up and out the door and getting this thursday started. a look at morgan hill and what to expect for today. partly cloudy and a cool start with temperatures in the upper 40s, and then going throughout the day a gradual warm-up but the sunshine always helps it feel a little bit warmer than the temperature that will only reach up to about 60 degrees. and we are watching out for a slight chance of rain late tonight and into early tomorrow for parts of the north bay, and the rain will be hit or miss but the north bay will be the focus for that chance. we are going to see more clouds coming in. every now and then some sprinkles, but not expecting any more heavy rain. then look at sunday.

it is clear all across the bay area, as we enjoy sunshine and warmer temperatures. so that's going to be nice to have that break. so what is happening here, it is still active in terms of the storm pattern across the region, but it is lifting to the north just a bit. so that's the reason why the north bay is just on that edge of seeing that chance of rain, but then it continues to lift to the north as high pressure builds across the southwest until the middle of next week, and then we start to see that wave of rain coming back as it just comes up and down the coastline. and then we are also looking at much more of an active storm pattern towards the end of next week. looking at the sierra, we do still have a lot more work to do. we are only at about half of our normal amount of the sierra snow pack, and there's only a little bit of snow on the way. we've seen such warm temperatures that the snow that we do get, sometimes it gets rain on top or we see the temperatures go above freezing throughout the day. so within the next week we could see another 4 to 12 inches of

snow, which will not really help catch us up to normal. looking at our forecast for the next several days, the north bay will have the best chance of showers tomorrow and early saturday. sunday is all dry as our temperatures head for the low 70s, and a nice little taste of spring at least for a couple of days. mike, how is it looking in san jose? we're watching those recovering. there we go. a little slowing southbound. the earlier crew had work going on in both directions. they cleared the caltrans grid but they were slowing as the project may are cleared but crews didn't finish. now they're completing their commute off the freeway itself and will be better in the next few. 680 moves nicely after it reopened from overnight road work in the northbound direction. into concord things are moving smoothly, a little tapping of the brake in pittsburg.

million people. if you count active and retired workers and in important states like michigan. >> this choice is clear. joe biden bet on the american worker while donald trump blamed the american worker. we need to know who is going to sit in the most powerful seat in the world and help us win as a united working class. so if our endorsements must be earned, joe biden has earned it. >> look, i kept my commitment to be the most pro-union president ever. i'm proud you have my back and let me just say i'm honored to have your back and you have mine. that's the deal. >> now, the most pro-union president ever is subjective, but biden is the only president to ever walk a picket line with the union in american history, and he did so during the

45-day-long strike last fall. cnbc reports tech billionaire reed hoffman will withdraw his financial support of nikki haley after her loss in new hampshire, dedicating the money to biden's fight against trump. haley continues her campaign in her home state of south carolina where she served as governor. donald trump now says anyone who showed haley support will be black listed by his campaign and administration, writing, anybody who makes a contribution to bird brain, as he calls her, will be permanently barred from the maga camp. >> he pitched a fit. he was insulting. he was doing what he does, but i know that's what he does when he's insecure. i know that's what he does when he is threatened, and he should feel threatened without a doubt. >> the head of the arizona republican party has resigned after an audio recording surfaced in which he appeared to try to convince kari lake not to run for senate as a republican.

lake was defeated in a race for arizona governor, and in the tape jeff de wit suggests unnamed companies could hire lake for whatever price she named if she would bow out of the race. lake says on the tape, quote, i can't be bought. video from monday of donald trump's motor cade reaching the house in new york for the second e. jean carroll trial. it was delayed until today after a juror got sick. trump is expected to testify today voluntarily. the judge though has instructed his lawyers he cannot deny accusations of sexual abuse because the jury has already found him culpable, and he can't defame carroll or call her a liar from the stand. violating a judge's rules can lead to contempt and people found in contempt can be fined or even face incarceration. >> always something new. thank you so much, scott. 5:48 right now. happening today, alameda and san mateo counties will conduct their annual count of how many people are living on the

streets. "today in the bay's" bob redell joining us from oakland this morning. i understand the number of unhoused people has grown significantly there in alameda county. >> reporter: yeah, unfortunately, you are correct. good morning to you. you see some of the volunteers, getting a little bit of pep talk in the city of oakland before they head out on the streets to conduct this census that is required every two years by hud, the federal agency. what they will be doing, the mayor is here. she is about to speak. there she is right now. but they will go out on the different routes and try to count the number of unhoused. this is something that is taking place throughout the bay area and this is, of course, the city of oakland's version. i want to show you some of the latest numbers. you can see alameda county, there were just over 5,600 people unhoused in the year 2017. 2022, unfortunately grew to over 9,7 hadn't people. by my calculation that was a 73%

increase. we got lucy casden with alameda county of homeless care and coordination. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> reporter: how are you able to count people without an address? >> that's a great question. we are lucky this year. we have over 1200 volunteers across the county working on this. that's actually more people just -- we have more people in oakland this year than the whole county last year. it takes an army of volunteers we are so grateful for as well as city, county, cbo partners to go out and we go block by block through census tracks so we can make sure that we are counting every person out there on the street, in vehicles, in rvs. >> we see the bags behadn't you. these are toiletry bags, a snack you will hand out to these people. do you have a sense -- i know the point is to get a count, but do you have a sense of whether the number is down, the same or up? i am assuming it is up based on what i see.

>> exactly. we are using a different methodology this year and we expect both based on the methodology getting richer data, but certainly based on other points we have besides this count we anticipate the numbers going up? >> reporter: why can't we solve this, we as a county, we as a region? >> i mean that here in alameda, like you said, it is a city -- you know, a city, a county, a state, a federal crisis we are in. we see this across the country, right, this homeless crisis. i think we here in alameda county are really looking at innovative ways to solve homelessness, and part of the reason a point-in-time count is that the data from this day helps how we design programs and move towards our goals. >> reporter: if the number goes up does it help get more money from, let's say, the feds. >> it certainly can, exactly. the number helps in terms of how much money we get and also how we allocate the resources within the county. >> reporter: lucy, thank you for

your time. we are actually going to be heading out within the next hour, one of the routes towards lanie county. again, it is required every two year. contra costa did theirs yesterday. we know san mateo is doing theirs right now and it is happening in the city of oakland and throughout the county of alameda. reporting live inside oakland city hall. i'm trying to be quiet while they're talking next door. bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you for that, bob. 5:52. here we are, new year. you likely made some resolutions. one may have been a dry january. when, you made it this far and this is the time you don't want to give up. but some people might be thinking, look, i don't know if i can make it until the end of the month. there's a message from andrea bell. this is a life and health coach who is running a dry january challenge at the oakland hills tennis club. she has a few tips on how to not fall off the wagon. she says that you should plan ahead if you are going out with people who might be drinking. you should also have an answer ready just in case someone asks

why you're not drinking. and don't give into the temptation to quit and have a drink. >> that's really what i coach people to do, is to learn how to allow that feeling of temptation and not act on it and watch it sort of go away. >> sobriety offers a number of health benefits here, better sleep, weight loss, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, and more energy along with a better mood. so -- >> to your health. >> just say no. >> to your health. they say get your excuse ready. for women it is like, i'm not drinking. >> they're like, oh! >> no, just not drinking. >> put some water in the glass or something, people might think of it is -- >> water in a glass? >> some sparkling water or something, some flavor. >> a little secret i put together. there you go. you got this. you got this. >> yes, and we have a game this

weekend, and i know people are going to be celebrating. so we're going to have some great weather for that. we have a couple more days to get to the weekend, so here is a look at what you are heading out the door to. temperatures in the upper 40s and low 50s, and it looks so much better this morning compared to yesterday for that drive as you are heading out. i want to show you how much rain we measured, most of us getting about a quarter to half inch of rainfall. where we did see the highest amounts in parts of the east bay with fremont yesterday getting about half an inch of rain, about the same in hayward, and we are seeing a lot of half-inch rainfall totals for some of the areas that got a pretty good soaking yesterday. now we take a break as we are in between these storm systems, but we are not completely done. we are going to see more atmospheric rivers moving into the region, but the thing about what we'll see over the next few days is that it will be slightly to our north. so what we're seeing here for tomorrow morning mlb some very light, spotty showers moving through. the north bay will be the focus

for a chance of some additional rainfall, maybe a few hundredths of an inch of rainfall. it will be cloudy, misty, drizzly at times, and heading into saturday as well as sunday eventually it will be clearing up. we are looking at a nice little break as that storm track heads farther to the north. so we're going to sigh that break for a little while, but the rain eventually will be coming back. this is next wednesday in the morning. that's when we are expecting our next big storm to come in. so it is going to be nice to have nothing significant coming our way. still some slight rain chances, focusing on the northbound tomorrow as well as saturday. sunday we are all dry as our temperatures warm up to the low 70s. mike, you were looking at some slowing through san jose. >> i am. not necessarily right here at the camera, although the volume is building, north 101 at our camera just north of the 280/680 interchange. you see the slower sensors which is right on schedule. no surprises traveling north through silicon valley.

traveling east bay over the san mateo bridge, there was slowing coming off the bridge and i saw what happens after a traffic break though nothing was on the grid. we are tracking it. 92 moving smoothly to and from the peninsula. across the bay out of oakland, the buildup quickly building over the last ten minutes. we have all lanes filled in at the toll plaza. obviously the metering lights are on. it is a smooth drive on the span. there may be an incident further north at the richmond bridge and fog through the north bay so use appropriate caution. back to you. >> thanks, mike. happening now, sclera firefighters getting ready to deliver an update on the christmas day fire in lossal toes. this was nearal camino real and san antonio road. demolition began on the building destroying it. a section has been closed since the fire. we hope to learn more later today from officials. it is a busy morning on
