right now at 6:00, a new development in the effort to raul alameda county's embattled district attorney. we are live in that county with the key step expected to be happening in a couple of hours. and it's the sprint to super tuesday, as more than a dozen states, including california, are set to hold their presidential primaries. the final push and the growing battle between nikki haley and former president trump. also, snow nowhere near the sierra, but here in the bay area. our cinthia pimentel is tracking how our forecast is shaping up for the rest of the week, because it's been a doozy. this is "today in the bay." thanks so much for joining us on this monday morning. i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia. >> don't you love the sound of monday morning. fake it until you make it. we'll get to a lot of your top stories, but we want to begin

with some breaking news for you, something to tell you about. take a look at this. so in the north bay, a large sheriffs presence is at two separate scenes. the first one is on stony point road south of bellevue in sonoma county. the second is on todd road west of the freeway. here is a live look at the scene. both of those areas are expected to remain shut down for the next several hours. the sheriff's office is asking commuters to avoid that area. so far, no other information is being released and our own ginger conejero saab is there at the scene. she's going to give us an update in the next half hour. our other top story, heavy snow coming down not just in the sierra, but also near the south bay. one peak getting several inches of snow, mount hamilton close to san jose. typically the road is closed when the snow falls, but not yesterday. so dozens of people drove up the winding road to lick observatory in order to play in the snow.

for some people, it was quite the milestone. >> very cold, but first time seeing it, so happy. happy for that. it feels fantastic. i kind of want to eat it, make an ice cream or something. something special. >> it is really special the first time you see snow. some people did drive more than an hour from san jose to play in the snow. other people ditched the beach to go up the mountain. cinthia is here with -- you were tracking the forecast all weekend long on "today in the bay" weekend. what do we expect this week? >> good thing they avoided the beach because the surf was rough at times. as we take a look at what we have ahead this week, we're starting our workweek with slick roads through oakland, the golden gate bridge. i see a little bit of clearing in the skies through dublin and san jose, and the main story is, aside from the rain, chilly temperatures as we make our way into the north bay, that frost advisory is with us until 9:00. so give yourself enough time to grab the umbrella, turn on the

car, and get yourself ready for the day. we've been picking up on light rain showers as bits of the last system break apart through parts of san jose, along oakland as you make your way over the bay bridge, and a little bit further east, concord, walnut creek, just some light activity. but there is more as we go through the santa cruz mountains this morning. so just want to make sure you drive safe. we're going to be looking at light rain through the middle of the week, but there is a chance of seeing things break up and sunshine in the forecast. mike has a check on the roadways. >> we're going to the bay bridge and wanted to show you the buildup has happened. it's filled in the lanes. we have a good advantage if you're carpooling. the big deal is that there's damp pavement and that will be the case around the bay. you see the green highlighting as the rain had moved around earlier. one crash shows up as you're traveling out of richmond into hercules. we'll look at the details. that does disrupt i-80 westbound

south of the carquinez bridge. south of the bay bridge, a smooth flow. northbound 101 traffic does happen. there's a report of a car fire on the shoulder for north 880. back to you. >> thanks, mike. just a few hours, the effort to recall alameda county district attorney is expected to take a huge step forward. >> "today in the bay"'s bob redell joins us live from outside the d.a.'s office in dublin. recall organizers say they have now enough signatures to get this on the ballot. >> reporter: you are correct. good morning to you, kris and marcus. that group called safe save alameda county for everyone says it has collected over 123,000 signatures for the petition to recall alameda county district attorney pamela price, who critics say is soft on crime and anti law enforcement. they are submitting the signatures to the county's registrar of voters after a news conference later this morning in oakland.

the county will take ten days to validate those signatures. if certified, the board of supervisors will then schedule a special election. only 73,000 signatures are required, but the group collected more in case some of their signatures are invalidated. d.a. price has defended her approach to criminal justice reform. back in december she said her goal is to, quote, hold people accountable without destroying the community, without decimating black and brown families because of the racism that has infected the criminal justice system. the "chronicle" reports that last week supporters of price asked the state attorney general to investigate, quote, reports of widespread fraud by signature gatherers, which the recall campaign denies. reporting live here in dublin, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you, bob. well, the final sprint is on heading into super tuesday. for republicans, voters in more than a dozen states head to the polls in about 24 hours. and while former president

donald trump is edging closer to a rematch with president biden, former u.n. ambassador nikki haley is not giving in. >> she is celebrating her very first primary win in the nation's capital, making her the first woman to ever win a republican primary. "today in the bay"'s brie jackson joins us live from washington this morning, and, brie, good news for nikki haley, but she still has a really long way to go. >> reporter: yeah, she does have a long way to go. she picked up a win here in washington, d.c. last night, but really all eyes are on super tuesday tomorrow. that's even a day that nikki haley has marked on her calendar, she said she's going to stay in this race no matter what, until at least super tuesday. so we continue to see a contentious battle between the two remaining gop presidential candidates as super tuesday could be nikki haley's final push to stop former president trump from securing the republican nomination.

>> reporter: the countdown to super tuesday is on. >> if you want to save america, then go vote. remember, the primary is tuesday. >> as long as we are competitive, as long as we are showing that there is a place for us, i'm going to continue to fight. >> reporter: former president trump has dominated the republican contest so far. despite that, nikki haley vows to push ahead, saying she no longer feels bound by the rnc pledge to endorse trump if he does become the nominee. >> i think i'll make what decision i want to make, but that's not something i'm thinking about. >> reporter: on tuesday, voters across more than a dozen states will weigh in, with more than 800 delegates up for grabs. the former u.n. ambassador is looking to build momentum, after picking up her first primary win sunday in the nation's capital. i spoke with republicans about what's at stake for the party. >> i think under trump we had a stellar economy and our military was strong and useful and our

border was secure, or at least in the process of becoming more secure. >> i think nikki haley might have a better chance of getting a coalition together to beat trump and get the nomination, which would be very important. >> i think we all definitely are going to be a stronger party if they both stay in and we have this process play out. >> reporter: tuesday could be make or break for haley's campaign, as she looks to stop former president trump's march to the gop nomination. and former president trump picked up more victories over the weekend with caucus wins in michigan, idaho and missouri. back to you. >> tomorrow will be a busy day. brie jackson in washington, thank you. >> we have an entire section on our website dedicated to the upcoming election. you can use the qr code on your screen to go to that page directly, or you can go to nbcbayarea.com and click on super tuesday right at the top

through los gatos, boulder creek and santa cruz. we have measured some substantial rain the last couple of days to wrap up this stretch of wet weather. over 4 inches, nearing 4 3/4 up around mount umunhum, mount tam nearly 3 inches of rain. we're going to continue to see some spotty showers and those cold temperatures remaining with us today. temperatures in the north bay, 55 for santa rosa and napa. upper 50s from san mateo down into san jose at 59 degrees today. we're going to start to see changes with those overcast skies, and mainly keeping the activity farther up into the north, with some light showers. as we go into tomorrow to start our commute, similar to what we're having today, spotty showers as we try to get into this next system. that will approach the bay area as we go into late tuesday. but notice this it's taking a

little more of that southern turn, so it will be mainly the best chances south of the golden gate bridge. there are some better news for some clearing thursday into friday, but the sierra continues to see some snow those days, and over the next seven we'll be in for some better weather thursday, friday, but there is another chance of light rain into the weekend. mike, you're looking at traffic heading through richmond. >> more volume heading through richmond because it was stopped up in richmond. the bridge shows a lot more traffic heading across 580 from off the eastshore freeway. it's because the crash has been cleared to the shoulder now, westbound 80 around san pablo avenue, the crash has quickly gotten over to the right shoulder. so traffic is now released. it's not so bad as far as the volume of traffic. there are slicker conditions. watch the green showing you the road index, showing wet roadways. slowing for highway 4 as well coming through concord. no surprises for this map. back to you. >> good to know. all month long we are

celebrating women's history. next on "today in the bay," we speak with one author whose new book is helping to

what do i see in peter dixon? i see my husband... the father of our girls. i see a public servant. a man who served under secretary clinton in the state department... where he took on the epidemic of violence against women in the congo. i see a fighter, a tenacious problem-solver... who will go to congress and protect abortion rights and our democracy. because he sees a better future for all of us. i'm peter dixon and i approved this message. for college basketball history. >> right there. oh, yes, iowa's caitlin clark with that landmark moment with that free throw yesterday. she passed pistol pete to become

the all-time -- maravich, to become the all-time leading scorer in college basketball. no man, no woman, has scored more points than clark, who has 3,685 and counting. clark finished with 35 points in the game and the hawk eyes beat ohio state. >> she walks away, ice water through her veins. this morning we are celebrating more women's history month. we begin with a spotlight on a book which is helping to empower young black women. "i am, i can, i will" is a guided journal helping to spark self-discovery. it's filled with quotes, mantras and stories from historical and present black women, including oprah winfrey, harriet tubman and more. the book is split into three sections and it's meant to guide the reader and show them what they're capable of. we talked with dr. cynthia jacobs carter, one of the

co-writers of that book. >> it's good to see some positive stories, especially about women and girls, who aspired to do something different in their lives, to go from point a to point z. so that's why i thought it was important in this day and time to give some positive aspects that young people could read about, and hopefully this will spark some inspiration in them. >> dr. carter says that young men should read the book as well as the message of women's empowerment is universal. we've got a lot more ahead, including an update on the massive sierra snowfall. the major artery, interstate 80, has been closed for days now. we're going to have the latest on efforts to reopen it. i'm ginger conejero saab in santa rosa, where an investigation is under way into an officer-involved shooting. ahead, we'll give you the details and the latest from t

democrats agree. conservative republican steve garvey is the wrong choice for the senate. ...our republican opponent here on this stage has voted for donald trump twice. mr. garvey, you voted for him twice... as your own man, what is your decision? garvey is wrong for california. but garvey's surging in the polls. fox news says garvey would be a boost to republican control of the senate. stop garvey. adam schiff for senate. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.

when peter dickson led my platoon into combat in afghanistan, he cared about two things: completing the mission, and making sure his marines came home. and we all did. pete's always fought for what he believes in, and i know he'll do the same in congress for affordable housing, the rights of women, and the democracy he swore to protect. because helping people who need it has always been pete's mission. and i know he'll get it done. next generation veteran fund is responsible for the content of this ad.

thanks for joining us on this monday morning. i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. first we want to start with the breaking news in santa rosa, where moments ago we learned more deputies were injured in an overnight shooting. "today in the bay"'s ginger conejero saab is joining us live there from the scene. all right, so, ginger, talk to us about what you've been able to find out. >> reporter: well, marcus, kris, we do know that deputies were involved in this officer-involved shooting this morning, four deputies were injured. one is in critical, but stable condition. and the investigation continues. we are at the intersection of todd road and moreland. if you take a look down todd road, it's closed. this is the start of the road closure. if you look half a mile down, you can see flashing lights. a number of law enforcement vehicles have been on scene all

morning. they continue to be, as this investigation continues. i have been told that law enforcement is investigating several locations, and we received an update, as you mentioned, from the sonoma county sheriff's office within the last half hour confirming that deputies were involved in the shooting after being fired at by a suspect. now, this happened just past midnight. those deputies were responding to a person brandishing a rifle. deputies arrived and found the suspect, who then led them on a pursuit. during that pursuit, the suspect stopped and shot at the deputies and continued on with the pursuit. deputies returned fire, ultimately the suspect crashed the vehicle he was driving. now, as i mentioned, four deputies were injured, one with a gunshot wound to the leg, two with injuries to their hands, and one deputy has a head injury. sonoma county sheriffs vehicles have been seen at santa rosa

memorial hospital this morning. we are told the deputy with the head injury is in critical, but stable condition. the suspect was pronounced deceased at the scene. the road closure that starts here on todd road and moreland includes other locations as well. stony point road south of bellevue avenue to todd road is indefinitely closed as well. as we mentioned, todd road between stony point and moreland is also indefinitely closed. santa rosa police advising the public to find alternate routes this morning. santa rosa police will take over this investigation, and we will bring you more updates as they come in this morning. but there has been a number of disruptions, i will say, to the business, some of the businesses in the area. you can expect the road closure to continue on through the morning and into the day as we await more updates from santa

rosa police. we're live in santa rosa, ginger conejero saab, "today in the bay." >> thank you for tracking that, ginger. another top story for us this morning, blizzard conditions at the sierra nevada impacting major roadways. yesterday cal trains briefly closed highway 50, leaving drivers in the snow. it's now reopened after crews cleared out that snow. we'll take you out to the sierra in just a few moments. right now, cinthia pimentel is tracking the amazing snow totals. >> impressive. i'll take you to this live camera. over palisades, the resort, we've seen it deteriorating through the weekend. this morning some improvements as we go out there, 21 degrees. we can start to see that sunrise in the distance. i do have numbers i want to show you, some fresh snow totals. donner peak, 87 inches. all of these ranging from 5 feet and up.

kingvale, 73 inches. in twin bridges, just over 5 feet we've measured over the weekend. small improvements. we do continue to be under a winter storm warning through wednesday as we see those on and off snow showers. so there are going to be really slick roadways. expect delays if you're trying to head up or down the mountain. back here at home, we have an alert in the north bay. we're looking at highway 101. we have the south bay commute direction just past highway 37, so just as you're leaving novato. we have two crashes, one is blocking two lanes. chp has issued an alert. they know that's a critical time for that portion of the commute heading out of novato and toward the north bay, like san rafael, that direction. better news on the other side of the bay, westbound 80 continues to recover as you pass by san pablo avenue. more traffic toward the richmond bridge and bay bridge. 880 heading south does show a nice, easy drive as far as the

volume. there are slick roadways. keep that in mind. the crashes are mostly off-ramps that we've seen over the course of the morning. >> thanks, mike. a man in the east palo alto has died after a stabbing last month. that search still continues for his killer. it happened back on february 8th when police say frank finney and another man were attacked near university avenue and bell street just before 8:30 p.m. police say whoever was in the white suv at the top of your screen there may have seen the stabbing. investigators are now searching for those witnesses. the other man is expected to be okay. 6:36, and the clock is ticking down to tomorrow's primary election and u.s. senate candidate for california, adam schiff, is expected to be here in the bay area today. he and and another representative, katie porter, campaigned in san francisco yesterday. porter says this will be a close

race. schiff, introduced by nancy pelosi, who also endorsed him and told reporters his team is feeling good about the polling numbers heading into the primary tomorrow. the other major democrat in the race, barbara lee, said she spent the weekend campaigning in southern california. and republican steve garvey did not respond to our request for comment, so we're not sure what he did this weekend. most voters tell us they are still undecided. >> i want to see a vision for what california can do better, and i want to be excited as a young person. we've had some older senators in the past and i'm looking for a younger person with some vision to kind of show us the way. >> with many of california's ballots yet to be turned in, each of the candidates knows that there's still time for them to campaign, and perhaps change voters' minds. you can drop those off at your polling station near you. we have an entire section on our website dedicated to the

election. you can use the qr code on your screen to go to that page directly, or you can go to nbcbayarea.com and click on the super tuesday tab right at the top of the page. we have everything you need to know about the big races, the candidates, and of course how to cast your ballot. happening now, drivers trying to make their way into the sierra are dealing with blizzard conditions. highway 50 is now back open after being shut down. caltrans says that i-80 between colfax and the california/nevada border is closed but could reopen later today. our sister station shows us the current conditions on 80. >> good morning from the sierra. we are on interstate 80 this morning, tracking the conditions out the front of the windshield of our vehicle. the roadway is covered in snow this morning, and there are snowbanks several feet high off to the side of the road. caltrans crews working around the clock, trying to clear the

snow from this interstate that has been shut down for a couple of days now, after all of that snow came in over the weekend at the end of last week. it's been a really big job for caltrans, and not only are they trying to work to clear the roadway, they're dealing with some of the breakdown of equipment in the severe weather conditions. caltrans telling us that in kingvale they're down to just two out of ten blowers at the central hub, and that's from auburn to the nevada state line that they are trying to get things cleared away. they're also working just six out of 20 blowers, so it's slowing down the process of them trying to clear the roadway. lots of folks stuck at colfax from the west side of the sierra as they try to head east. they're being blocked at colfax where interstate 80 is shut down. as we approach one of the pieces of machinery out here on the

highway, you can see the work that's being done. this particular piece of caltrans equipment has cleared a little bit of snow off to the side of the road, the left side of our camera here. but as you can see, there's still much more work to be done. this is one of their blowers at work as we speak. this has been the story around the clock for the past well over 48 hours now. the roadway is shut down, and at this point caltrans does not have an estimated time as to when the road will be open. caltrans and the california highway patrol keeping tabs on all of this, trying to get the road reopened for drivers who have been desperately trying to get over the sierra over donner pass for the past several days. but they have been unable to do that because of the road closure. now back to you. >> we know a lot of folks did heed that advice to stay away, so we need the forecast for here at home. things are starting to calm down a little bit.

the snow has definitely piled up marcus height, 6, 7 feet up there, and just if you go into the higher peaks it's even more, up to 12 feet this weekend. but calming down in the bay area with the rain we've gotten over the last four days. just a few light showers over fairfax, approaching marin wood. the east bay, we see light rain through san leandro, 580, castro valley. another range we're looking at for light rain is along highway 17 in the santa cruz mountains, scotts valley approaching lexington hill. just be careful with all of that water that other cars are picking up in the roadways in front of you. as we take a look at what to expect, we're starting off with a frost advisory for the north bay as they dip into the 30s. we have cloudy skies and chances of rain through the middle of the week. better clearing in the seven-day forecast. mike is showing you an alert on highway 101. >> the issue is if you're photographing out of novato and heading sought toward san francisco or even toward san

rafael, you do have this crash. there is actually a second crash in the area, one just before, one after ignacio boulevard. highway 37 is moving smoothly, but that is the main connecter for folks on that side of the north bay crossing over and heading south. we're looking south of there across the richmond bridge. that's fine, so if you're choosing between 37 and the richmond bridge, i would take the richmond bridge. there is a new crash that might be in lanes near carlson. that just popped up. the bay bridge, typical backup. no big surprises as you cross from the maze toward san francisco. it's a smooth flow of traffic. you'll notice the damp roads. just use caution. back to you. while living behind bars, still ahead, the way one nonprofit is using social media to share stories from inside the walls of california's most notorious prison. we are now minutes away from

what we expect is a very big decision from the supreme court. decision from the supreme court. we expect it's

♪♪ stay ahead of your moderate—to—severe eczema, and show off clearer skin and less itch with dupixent. the number one prescribed biologic by dermatologists and allergists, that helps heal your skin from within. serious allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems such as eye pain or vision changes including blurred vision, joint aches and pain, or a parasitic infection. don't change or stop asthma medicines without talking to your doctor. ask your eczema specialist about dupixent.

good monday morning. the time is 6:45. i want to help plan your day in the south bay. san jose, we're starting off with overcast skies. temperatures in the mid-40s. we're only going to warm up to about 59 degrees later today, keeping those gloomy skies. it might dampen the monday mood.

the good news is that we stay mostly away from the rain for today. we'll talk about the rest of the outlook coming up. oakland, the nimitz for a few minutes looked really bare. the roadway back to what we expect this time of day. we'll show you what's going on. there are some smoother spots, but still that alert in the north bay. happening later this morning, jewish students at cal are organizing what they're calling a symbolic march today in response to pro-palestinian activists disrupting a speaking engagement one week ago. organizers calling this part of their fight to reclaim free speech. this also follows a protest yesterday in san francisco to support the jewish community. a unity march started at em brk -- embarcadero. 6:46, and president biden, former president trump and the american people all waiting to hear from the supreme court this

morning. >> scott mcgrew, a big decision about 7:00 our time. >> about 14 minutes from now. the court won't say what the decision is about, but we're almost certain it's about donald trump and whether or not states can kick him off the ballot. the high court made the announcement that it would release a decision last night. at issue, whether the states of colorado and maine can keep trump off the ballot, using a constitutional amendment prohibiting those who engaged in insurrection from holding office. that part of the constitution is not really very clearly written. it definitely says no insurrectionists can hold office, and it lists a whole bunch of offices, but then weirdly skips the mention of the president. and then, while, again, it says no insurrectionists can hold office, it doesn't say who makes the decision about who is or who is not an insurrectionist. now, most court watchers think the decision today will reject the states' arguments and keep trump on the ballots.

the colorado primary is tomorrow, part of super tuesday. trump won michigan, idaho and missouri's republican primaries over the weekend. if the experts are right, and this does go trump's way, the thing to watch will be how the court arrives at that decision. it's going to have to do some legal gymnastics to somehow uphold the constitution while at the same time saying what the constitution says doesn't count, at least in this case. again, that court decision comes at 7:00 a.m. our time. nbc will provide a special report. also today, the chief financial officer for the trump company will be in court. our reporters speculate he will plead guilty to lying on the stand. he's already served 100 days in jail for 15 counts of tax fraud related to the trump organization. the white house says vice president harris will meet with israeli war cabinet member benny gantz in washington today, harris joining the president in calling for a cease-fire in gaza

as she spoke over the weekend in alabama. and congress has introduced six bills to keep the government open, passed friday. the house and senate still have to pass the bills, but leaders say they are going to get it done. >> so, again, good news. of course the clock is now ticking, we have to pass this bill by friday. but the fact that the four leaders, house, senate, democrat and republican, have reached an agreement, bodes well that the government will not run out of funds and shut down. >> there is another set of bills that have to be passed mid-month, but all in all, positive moves forward. up until now they've just been repeatedly kicking the can down the road. this is progress. >> it is. good to see forward momentum. thank you. big changes are coming to san quentin prison starting this spring. that is when, according to the department of corrections and rehabilitation, demolition work will start, according to the

governor's plan to transform the oldest and most notorious prison in california into a rehabilitation and education center. you might remember that governor gavin newsom made that initial announcement last year. $240 million has been set aside for the transformation of the prison, which is expected to be complete in 2026. rehabilitation work continues for the people incarcerated inside san quentin's walls as well. one local nonprofit, humans of san quentin, is turning to social media to collect stories from previous and current inmates. their team hopes connections on social media will offer some healing. >> they don't have the opportunity to ever be heard by someone and they've already been labeled with every negative thing you can imagine and they're the biggest critic of themselves already. so for me it's very joyous to be able to know that there is hope, we can give hope. >> the executive director of the

project says that she supports the governor's decision to transform san quentin into a rehabilitation and education center, seeing it as a way to initiate change nationwide. let's talk about that forecast. we've been seeing a lot of rain off and on. is it pretty much off for today? >> yeah, it was a soggy weekend. for today i think you'll look up and see some better clearing in the skies. i want to show you the golden gate bridge, more of those blue hues. there are some parts that are still a bit gloomy over oakland, and busy slick roadways over 580, 880, and brakes through part of walnut creek and into dublin as well. as we look at stormranger, there are just a few spotty showers, light. nothing compared to what we dealt with over the weekend. fairfax, san rafael, you're seeing rain. parts of san leandro along 580, hayward. and it's going to approach san ramon into the next couple of
