unintended consequences. tonight businesses tell our betty yu those bike lanes have left them spinning their wheels. >> reporter: it's been about six months since the city installed the new center like bike lanes here on velancia street, and many business owners say it's driven people away. >> it's just less people. >> reporter: just look at this nearly empty dining room friday night at yasmin, a mediterranean cafe in the mission. the owner said business is done at least 30 to 40% i since the city installed the valencia street bike lane from 15th to 23rd streets. he says the unusual design meant to improve safety limited parking in the area, changed traffic patterns, and caused a downturn in sales. >> it tooks me about sometimes an hour, hour and a half to

find parking. there is no parking on valencia street. the enforcement has been really tough on people, even businesses. they don't allow you to unload your food. >> reporter: several long time businesses in the area have closed this year. he says a huge factor has been the controversial yearlong pilot program for the center bike lane. >> a lot of my other neighbors are about to close. there's no help from the city or anybody. >> reporter: kevin ortiz, the co-president of the sfx latin x club, is having a press conference in the bike lane thursday to raise concerns linked to the closure, a drop in foot traffic, and increase in traffic accidents. a cyclist himself, he says the lanes create more danger. >> i usually take folsom because i get really scared going down valencia. >> reporter: sfmta said in a statement in part, we want businesses on the corridor to thrive, and we want to do everything we can to support

intense. as to what's happening? >> climate change is what's happening. >> reporter: this doctor is with the sean parker center for allergy research at stanford medicine. >> some allergy seasons start as early as january or february. >> reporter: they've discovered how the bay area's pollen and mold season has lengthened by eight to nine weeks. >> we saw longer durations of pollen seasons due to rising temperatures. >> reporter: in fact, for the world, 2023 will likely be the hottest year ever recorded. in addition, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is at an all time high. so what's the connection to more pollen? >> as we have higher temperatures due to increased greenhouse gases, one of those gases is co2, and that's what wants use for photo synthesis. as there's more co2 around, plants are using this, in

addition to warm climates, to produce more plants and more pollen. >> reporter: then there's this. climate change has boosted the chance of severe thunderstorms, as well as a rare phenomenon known as thunderstorm asthma. thunderstorms create a unique set of weather factors that can break up pollen and mold spores into tiny fragments that are easier to inhale and launch into the lower part of the lungs. that can exacerbate asthma. >> that's been well documented in australia, this thunderstorm asthma effect, as well as in other parts of the u.s. where we've had thunderstorms because of severe weather conditions. >> reporter: as we face a warm, wet winter, she has this advice. >> to minimize your exposure to the allergens in mindful ways, and really to keep proper

lot of moisture to work with, but it's been enough to squeeze out a few showers around the bay area. heftiest totals a few hundredths of an inch for the north bay. that shower activity continues to make its way from northwest to southeast. let's track it as we head through the rest of tonight. switching over to futurecast. these will be hit or miss showers. if it rains, it won't amount to a lot. it won't last long. but the chance will be with us as the sun comes up tomorrow and then intermittently throughout the day tomorrow. in any one particular spot, it's about a 40% chance of rain, so far from a guarantee. in fact, the odds are better than 50/50 you'll stay dry, but if it does rain, be prepared for it. just wait it out and then go about whatever your outdoor activities are on saturday. the showers should be fewer and fact between and down to a few lingering sprinkles by the afternoon. the second half of the weekend is looking drier. we have plenty of sunshine today making the most of our short hours of daylight here. back closer to those levels by

the time the second half of the weekend rolls around with more sun peeking through the clouds. the rain chances sunday aren't technically zero, but it's a 40% chance tomorrow down to a 10% chance sunday. wednesday, thursday, and friday we have another chance of rain, but the long rain data is all over the place at this point. eventually, one of those days will end up being wetter, but it's impossible to tell which one at this point. looking outside, downtown is lit up, and plenty of cloud in the background. because of the clouds, temperatures haven't dropped much. that blanket of cloud cover is holding warmth near the ground level. we're in the low to mid-50s right now. we'll drop to a mix of mid to upper 40s and low 50s to start the day on saturday. a warmer than average start, and even with the clouds overhead, because of that warmer than average start and just the weight of the atmosphere on top of us, we'll warm up to slightly above average tomorrow

afternoon. 65 saturday afternoon. most of us in the lower half of the 60s. the cool spot will be the upper 50s for half moon bay, just short of 60 degrees. average high on december 2nd is exactly 60, so we'll beat it by a degree or two. as we dry out the limited rain chances, temperatures will warm up. let's check out the seven-day forecast. by the middle of the next week, high temperatures 60s and inland around the bay. some spots hitting the upper 60s, close to seven or eight degrees above average for early december. additional cloud cover comes wednesday, thursday, and friday. the most noticeable cool down is friday. at this point in the seven-day forecast, we're leaving things dry. just clouds moving towards us wednesday, thursday, and friday. we're being deliberately vague in terms of the rain chances because it's not a guarantee of any one particular spot. eventually one of those days, wednesday or

thursday or friday, we'll be able to zero in on it as the best chance of light shower activity. but no atmospheric rivers headed our way soon. the high sierra will be a little snow starved through the first half of the month. we'll continue to watch for rain down here and snow up there. >> all right, thank you. christmas is in the air in san francisco, or more specifically on the side of the building. they flipped the switch tonight on let's glow sf, and organizers hope the projection light display will light up some cash registers downtown. >> reporter: i'm here at the foot of market, and there's quite a show on the facade of the ferry buildings. high-tech projectors and lasers are projecting art concepts right on the clock tower. throughout the holiday season, you'll be able to see this on five landmarks in san francisco, including the ferry building and the salesforce tower. this event is in its third year.

artists from around the world match the art with the music to create the show. it came about during the pandemic as a way to bring people back to downtown. just last year, the downtown sf partnership estimates this event brought in more than 50,000 people and $3 million to the local economy. >> so downtown san francisco needs to go through a major transformation and a major reimagination, and it starts with hospitality and bringing the creative class back to downtown. this is one step in the right direction. >> this is an area with a lot of value. it's really beautiful. great restaurants, great bars. >> reporter: if you come down for the show, it's a bit chilly, but there are lawn chairs to sit back and take in the art show. downtown sf partnership raised $700,000, and it's an amount they'll need to raise every year to keep
