5:01 pm
area, right? so you don't run into a lot of incidents of crime or foul play. i don't know the circumstances here, but when you hear it's an entire family, of course, your mind starts to go to a place of what tragic event happened? >> reporter: you can see that over there police still investigating trying to identify the people found inside the home, but what's clear so far is that there's no danger to the public. >> thanks, jose. meantime oakland police need your help identifying a person of interest in a deadly shooting. they released these photos today. police say a person was shot and killed on seventh avenue and international boulevard in july of 2023. this happened near quinton park. here's another look at the photos. opd is asking anyone with information about the person of interest or the case to give them a call. a stretch of el camino real is back open in los altos after it was closed off nearly two

game's disappointing outcome didn't ruin a once in a lifetime experience. >> it was great. it was phenomenal. the halftime show with usher, oh, that was fantastic. >> also making his return from las vegas, our very own vern glenn literally landing about 15 minutes ago. vern, they were so close to bringing the lombardi trophy back to the bay area. >> you know what? close doesn't cut it, ryan. special teams cost the 9ers eight points. if not for that, we might be talking about a different game there. have now been two overtime finishes in super bowl history. kyle shanahan here has been on the losing end of both of them. the other was when he was offensive coordinator with atlanta. patrick mahomes and the chiefs marched right down the field on their possession to win the game and it's all becoming too familiar for the 49ers to have their season end in crushing
5:04 pm
fashion. >> going to lose to a group of guys, do it with those guys anytime and we'll take some time, get over this and come back next year ready to go. >> i know that we still have a talented team. we still have a great foundation. so the only answer is go back to work. >> so now the road to super bowl lix is in new orleans. it starts today. the 9ers are among the early favorites once again right behind kansas city. san francisco was well positioned to run it back with most of its core group. that was the talk at united airlines gate 54 today in vegas before coming back. chris berman from espn was on my flight, a noted 9er fan. he's going to process this in maui. >> with a mai tai in hand, no doubt. you, sir, deserve a mai tai as well. >> yes, he does. >> your amazing work all week long, i know you had a really, really late night. thanks so

much for coming on the 5:00. you rock, vern. >> you got it. the work is beginning ahead of next year's super bowl in new orleans. the host committee held its official handoff ceremony this morning. >> they say this year's event in vegas was an overwhelming success. >> can't wait for the nfl to bring a super bowl back to las vegas. we expect that to happen soon. we believe we've demonstrated that's the way it ought to be. >> super bowl lx will be played at levi's stadium on february 8th , 2026. let's turn to weather now and a live look outside, plenty of nice sunshine today, but not going to last very long. wet weather is returning later this week. it's back. >> first alert chief meteorologist paul heggen tracking a series of storms that could bring rain on our way down here, snow in the mountains. >> yeah. we were talking about this last week, that a nice dry break for everybody kind of to recover from that parade of atmospheric rivers that began the month of february, but
5:06 pm
eventually we'll get back into the more active pattern. so another dry day tomorrow, a mix of clouds and sunshine, probably more clouds than sun tomorrow, but no moisture from the clouds yet. then things trend in a more active direction beginning with a chance of light to moderate rain showers wednesday, but there's going to be another train of storm systems lining up to head our way with heavier, more widespread rain chances in the forecast as we head into much of presidents' day weekend. the hour-by-hour details of the first rain chance, it won't rain to start the day wednesday. i think the morning commute will be dry, but the rain chances increase as we head through the afternoon into the evening. we'll add up this particular rain chance on futurecast in a few minutes, but it's farther down the line than a more significant and prolonged stretch of wet weather sets in. you can see that on the six to ten-day outlook which takes us through much of the week after presidents' day and the signal towards wetter than normal conditions. we'll look at our forecast models side by sighted coming up and show you how they
5:07 pm
depict all that rain for presidents' day weekend. >> thanks, paul. all this rain is mostly good for california, but it will fuel the growth of grass and brush later this year. one bay area county is now taking an aggressive approach to reduce that fire danger. >> our biggest concern is on a diablo wind day that we get a fire within that grove. >> at 5:30 we'll show you how that county is working to mitigate the risks presented by one especially dangerous type of tree. two israeli hostages have been rescued during a raid in the southern gaza city of rafah. they were captured by hamas in october. that raid could also be a precursor to an israeli invasion of the city where more than 1 million refugees are taking shelter. skyler henry has more details from the white house. >> reporter: the biden administration praised the rescue of two hostages held by hamas. >> 134 are still held hostage
5:08 pm
by hamas. we don't know how many are still alive. the anguish that their families are enduring week after week, month after month is unimaginable. >> reporter: israeli defense forces have released new video showing the daring rescue. louis har and fernando marman were flown to safely where they were reunited with their families at a hospital. news of the rescue broke ahead of monday's white house meeting between president biden and king abdullah ii of jordan. jordan and the u.s. are working together to seek a deal that would free the rest of the hostages held by hamas. >> the key element of the deals are on the table. there are gaps that remain, but i've encouraged israeli leaders to keep working to achieve the deal. >> reporter: president biden has become more vocal that israel needs to do more to protect civilians caught in the
5:09 pm
crossfire. >> they have said they will develop and implement a humanitarian plan. we have made clear we think it is imperative they do so. >> reporter: jordan is also seeking a ceasefire in the region. >> we cannot afford an israeli attack on rafah. it is certain to produce another humanitarian catastrophe. >> reporter: israel is preparing an assault on the southern gaza city of rafah where more than 1 million refugees have fled from other parts of gaza to escape the war. >> israel says about 100 hostages remain in hamas captivity. meanwhile the humanitarian crisis in gaza is growing even deeper. at 7:00 we'll meet a palestinian refugee who went on to become a stanford-trained doctor. we'll talk to him about why he's putting his own safety at risk to go on a medical mission to gaza. still ahead, police have now identified the woman who opened fire inside a texas megachurch. >> they started screaming, there's a shooter. there's a
5:10 pm
shooter. >> what we're learning about a possible motive. a slow motion disaster developing along the california coastline, where luxury homes are at risk of sliding into the ocean. there's black excellence everywhere that you turn and look. >> how a parent volunteer is giving bay area students an important lesson in history and in life.
5:11 pm

"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.
5:12 pm

5:13 pm
on a possible motive. mayor london breed is weighing in after a waymo robotaxi was set on fire saturday night in chinatown. the video you see here posted on x shows the flames and smoke just coming out of that car. this is the video of the aftermath posted by frisco live 415. the smoke is still pouring out of the cab while firefighters put out the flames. graffiti on the side and the entire top of the car is completely gone. waymo tells us the fire was started when someone threw a firecracker into that car. luckily no one was hurt. police tell us today they still have not made any arrests. today mayor london breed released a statement addressing the incident. "we are a city that is home to exciting emerging technologies like autonomous vehicles that are changing the world. we are a city that is rich in culture, ideas, and pride. we are not defined by a small isolated incident by a reckless few."
5:14 pm
california lawmakers and the teamsters reintroduced a bill requiring drivers in autonomous trucks. the proposed bill requires a trained person be behind the wheel of self-driving trucks weighing more than 10,000 pounds. supporters say the proposed legislation would make the roads safer and would also preserve hundreds of trucking jobs. a similar bill was vetoed by governor newsom last september. in northern california cleanup is underway after a train derailment in plumas county. union pacific tells us 14 of their train cars derailed this morning near middle fork feather river. they were carrying coal. no one was hurt, but crews are still working to determine the environmental impact of the stillage. three homes in southern california's dana point are now in danger of falling into the ocean. look at this chopper footage of that landslide. a portion of the cliffside gave way over the weekend leaving these homes in jeopardy kind of dangling there. it's still unclear if they'll be red
5:15 pm
tagged, but more rain is expected next week which crews say could be catastrophic. let's get back to weather here in our neck of the woods. first alert chief meteorologist paul heggen standing by. we know there's going to be a few storms headed our way. when's the first one expected? >> the first one gets here wednesday. that doesn't look like it will be overly impactful. it will slow down the afternoon and evening commute, but in terms of either heavy rain or really strong winds, that's not a threat with the first one. we get to ease into the more unsettled pattern before the more unsettled weather, more impactful weather arrives in time for presidents' day weekend. areas of dense fog redeveloping tonight, plenty of clouds tomorrow, a little sunshine peeking through, but more clouds than sun tomorrow. then we see showers moving in wednesday, especially in the afternoon and evening hours. i'll track that on futurecast in a second. still unsettled late this week and flat out wet weather over presidents' day weekend. any outdoor plans,
5:16 pm
doesn't matter if it's saturday, sunday, monday, i would rethink those. outside now, beautiful perspective of downtown san francisco. temperatures in the upper 50s and low 60s right now. we are going to drop down through the rest of tonight. some of that locally dense fog develops, mostly low to mid-40s by early tomorrow morning, which is fairly close to where we're supposed to be in mid-february. tomorrow's forecast, high temperatures which are also going to be very close to normal for this time of year, which means a mix of a few upper 50s and a lot of low 60s, 63 in san jose, 61 degrees in livermore, 60 degrees in fremont, just below 60 degrees in san francisco, a couple degrees cooler for half moon bay along the coast. north bay getting up to around 60 degrees, maybe a couple spots falling a bit short. all in all, just what's typical for this time of year. we're going to warm up a bit as the more active weather pattern shapes up later this week. let's look
5:17 pm
at the first storm system moving in. futurecast will start the clock later tonight. through the day tomorrow we'll see passing cloud cover, fog at ground level to begin the day of once that dissipates, clouds farther up in the atmosphere filtering out the sunshine. the moisture is out to our west by the time the sun goes down tomorrow evening. maybe a chance of a passing shower for the north bay tomorrow night into early wednesday morning, but the bulk of that moisture isn't going to move in until wednesday afternoon, first slight showers, then moderate to occasionally heavy brief downpours. it's unsettled weather wednesday evening and overnight, that activity winding down early thursday morning. a few leftover showers are likely heading through thursday. let's add up the total rainfall, forecast model estimate. none of them are ever perfect, but they give us a good idea of the overall pattern. this is a pretty typical winter rain event, less than a 0.1-inch in some of the
5:18 pm
rain shadowed spots down the peninsula and the santa clara valley and over a half inch of rain for the north bay. the systems over the weekend will bring much more rain on a more evenly distributed basis and our side by side forecast models, the american and european models, have a lot of overlap depicting the arrival of these systems. it looks like waves of heavier rain move through saturday, a little break in the action to start sunday, but then another batch of heavier rain moving in later in the day continuing into the presidents' day holiday monday. add up a couple back to back low end atmospheric rivers, they may have a combined effect of a higher atmospheric river in terms of rain. another dry day tomorrow. then the first round of rain arrives wednesday. some lingering showers thursday, but thursday won't be a washout. we get a one-day dry break
5:19 pm
friday with still above average temperatures into the low to mid-60s and then just generally wet weather saturday and sunday and again on monday. it seems like so many of the rain chances this year have coincided with the weekends and the upcoming holiday weekend, no exception to that pattern. >> makes it tough when you've got sports on those weekends. >> people want to go up to the sierra, it's going to be challenging. bay area students getting important lessons from a parent volunteer, we'll meet the man who shows kids they can do anything they set their minds to. >> it's important to know there are people that look like us who have done amazing things on this planet called earth. we're learning more about the woman responsible for an attack on a texas megachurch, what investigators are now reviewing about her history.

5:23 pm
of maternal death for black women is three to four times higher than white women. nearly one-third of patients in california reported they didn't feel delivery room staff encouraged them to make decisions about their birth progression. more than 10% said they were treated unfairly. >> if this bill passes, expecting parents could see which health facilities completed the state's required implicit bias training and which ones have not. it would also set training deadlines for facilities and fine those who don't participate. ♪ every other week an elementary school in san francisco, a group of young students come together to learn about and celebrate black excellence. their guide? a
