stormy side, but just some leftover showers, winds and thunder showers. and then for the latter portion of the week, sunday, clouds mixture and those cooler nights because going to be somewhat mild with all of this going on. now, futurecast for pretty good start. here it comes. it hits the north bay first very typical for the winter months. about one 30 or so before it starts spreading out over the wider bait here and continues to get fed all night by a series of waves. and we do the same thing monday morning of opening up the skies temporarily. this won't be as generous with the rain. i know no complaints by that point, but it may produce and spark off some isolated thunder showers with it or severe weather potentially with that. so when you get that daytime heating of the cold air aloft, all you're doing, it's just driving a contrast. and given the atmosphere energy in which to play with later, i said earlier that the rain would linger into tuesday. this is what we have. however, although this looks relatively benign, we still have the chance even inland of seeing the thunder showers fire up again in the afternoon. all right. future cast for those

winds. they're going to favor the heaviest winds along the coast. it looks likes of the peninsula through san francisco up to marin and sonoma counties. you're going to see the heaviest winds somewhat more modest. you can see well inland, although the wind advisory covers everybody, then let's try monday's deal. yeah, much better coverage. we've got 20's and 30's populate the map all over the place with another pocket here for san francisco, southern marin and the peninsula. we'll get the heaviest winds again on monday. finally by tuesday, we can kind of retire. some of those testy winds and we'll go into more of a situation of spotty showers with thunder showers and their 2 today. pretty simple. 64 going on and what doesn't look like they way to start. we have some rain. the sun working here. 65 for oakland, 68 for san jose and the bigger board there. not bad for february numbers. least temperature wise, but the bigger issue, of course, is going to be a stormy action. so again, the winds will come this afternoon evening. they're going to favor the west and then everybody gets involved in those winds probably tomorrow, both days. watch out for

thunder showers. that means hail and you can even get water spouts and crazy stuff like that, too. package are well, thanks for the warning. appreciate >> alright, we'll it honoring black history month and we're taking you to stanford today where a street is named in honor of the first black administrator of the university 7. donald was the son of a former slave and a minister in the south. his family was one of the first african-american families to find refuge in california. was ella sogomonian reports. >> he signed an athletic field on the stanford campus is a street named sarah mcdonald ball. if you walk by today, may know the story behind the site for manual mcdonald's in the 18, 100's and lovingly known as uncle man by his family. >> sam was a black man who was a teen, fled the segregated south for greener pastures in california. sam tried his hand farming, even modeling before landing a job with stanford university in 19. 0, 3, throughout his career. he grew to be quite popular and was

4th. the bill calls for an expansion of diverse and rehab programs like drug courts and 5th. the idea is to provide law enforcement with the tools to keep repeat offenders in custody. this package says to organized crime rings, we need a business and we're giving law enforcement the tools that they need to shut you down. we won't sweep this issue under the rug. >> and there will be a robust answer dealing with the issue of a retail theft in california, but not included in the bill. a proposal to repeal prop. 47 passed by california voters in 2014. the law change certain nonviolent crimes from felonies to misdemeanors, including theft when the items stolen are valued at less than $950. >> while supporters have long argued the law will help reduce california's prison population and lead to criminal justice reform opponents, including something member tom lackey say it emboldened criminals to take part in certain crimes like retail theft, but little to no punishment. property heavily contributed to the problem. >> and so in order to find a

a while. yeah, i know that low yesterday and one of the zip towards our south right now, it's kind of meandering around the central coast. so this may be an impact for next weekend. don't take this the barclays or anything, but it's a possibility we may get some showers into next weekend. a way to get a little closer to see if that holds be nice to have a rain-free weekend. again, here's what it looks like of the next few days to one and emphasize the point that this rain comes with thunder showers, even all the way out till tuesday. meanwhile, our overnight lows get a little cooler in the lower 40's. stephanie. all right, david, thank you. >> well, just in time for the lunar new year, there's a new comic book highlighting the historic fight for equality by asian americans. joining us live now to talk about this is the ceo of the asian american foundation. norman shed. good morning to you know, good morning, stephanie, how are doing? well, happy lunar new year year. so first of all, tell us a bit about >> the books. this is pretty exciting stuff. and there really wasn't much media like this mean for you. and i pretty much going up.

>> not very much at all. and so friend of mine is coming up a crater and i asked her, are there any comic books for asian american history? she said no. so we decided great one as of this book has been the product of over the past year and came out just this past week. they're launching a national launch. well, congratulations on that. so walk us through some of the stories that are featured in this comic book looks incredible in the u.s. very many people are ignorant about asian american history and our own research. 70% are unaware are confused about asian history versus asian american history. and here we talk about important milestones such as the asian americans building the chinese railroad. now that connected the east coast and the west coast. we also talk about japanese incarceration during world war 2, which is really, really important. historical landmarks are lots of stories that people just don't know about that are included in this and so tell us about the significance of, you know, why you chose these particular stories to highlight. >> in the book, there are so

many parts of asia, american history, pacific islander history that are included. >> so this is just a snapshot. kind of the tip of the iceberg. we have 2 other volumes coming out over the next 2 years. and we've worked with partners like the asian american education project to pick the most relevant stories that really captivate readers attention and was a target audience his unit. we know it's a comic book. that's right. >> is there a particular age that you're trying to reach out to? yeah, this is targeting mostly for middle school kids and we find that when kids see the book, they describe it and pick it up and start reading right away. but frankly, younger kids start to read and they love it. older people, even adults are bound to find something interesting in this and is and i was reading a bit about the background of a major american foundation and the work that you're doing with this comic book. this is something that you're hoping the educators will introduce to students as well. absolutely. as part of our work, we're fighting hate but also building belonging prosperity across the country. we support organizations and we fight hate directly and cities around the country. but longer term, we believe

education and narrative change in storytelling are really important. >> it's a part of our work is promoting the teaching of api history all around the country and books like this along with other materials from groups like ucla, will be really, really necessary in the classrooms. i think this is going to be a treat for comic book fans in general to enjoy it because >> you've worked was some people who've, you been connected to marvel and award-winning artist that sort of thing. a walk us through the folks who you've collaborated with on this project. my partner amy chu is a friend of mine from college. she went to wells the mit and harvard business school and now she writes coming, folks full time. well, what a and so we she actually has this book now at the comic shows people come up to her super excited to learn more and about asian american history and actually read the book or themselves. wow, incredible. and you know that we touched on this a little bit earlier, but walk us you know, the asian american >> foundation as what is how long the guy's been around. tell us about the work that

you do. >> we've been here for only 3 years, actually less than 3 years found by several prominent asian american pacific islander leaders from around the country. people like jerry yang here in the bay area show tie from the east coast. the brooklyn nets and they came together at the height of anti asian hate to say, hey, we need to come together, bring more resources, bring more visibility to our community, do try to work together to address anti-asian hate, but to build the lonely and prosperity in the future. so we really are unique and we bring together people from the business world, the nonprofit world from last of the world media entertainment and also government to all come together and say, hey, let's work together to support the asian american community and pacific islander community. let's really try to make our issues better. understood and to move our whole community forward. and, you know, during the pandemic, that's when we saw a lot of concern about anti-asian but also a lot of people starting to find their voice and speak up about. >> you know, their culture and how proud they are to be aged america and speak about their

asian stories what are the challenges that you see that still exist and persist today that you think should be addressed. >> well, anti-asian hate remains a major issue in this country. we just did a survey in new york city that showed that u.s. 50% of people have experienced directly some form of anti asian hate and one in 5 actually been physically attacked in the last year alone. so even though it may not be in news as much as it was a few years ago is still very prevalent in our society and the issue that will just not go away. we need to work on a continually. so that's the anti-hate peace. the longer term is the stereotypes and the biases and discrimination against asian americans. people think the asian americans are highly successful in business are well represented when, in fact, there are least likely ethnic group or racial group in this country to be promoted. what a shocking specially here in silicon valley to sink asian americans are the least likely to be promoted. but the reality is there's still a lot of bias against asian americans and we need to address that as well.

all right. thank you for making it for for bringing that up. >> so much more. i want to talk to you about that. we do have to wrap up here shortly just to tie things off. if people are watching this, they're interested in learning more about the comic book and work. how can how can perhaps get a copy for themselves? but to think so come to that half website f dot org to learn more about the asian american foundation where national organization and for the booking buy from amazon dot com. you can also get it from our web ite. okay, wonderful. and any message for viewers this lunar new year o well, peace and prosperity is critical for everybody and to have wonderful year. the dragon. >> all right. norman chan, the ceo of the asian american foundation. thank you so much for joining us this morning. thank you very much. all thank you very much. all right. we'll be right back.

all morning. what what? what are you most concerned about? dave? >> well, actually in the package, we can break it down a little bit of what the bigger issues kind of look out for. are first things first kind of we're getting a lot of sunshine to start the day off, which is great. so you can kind of enjoy the morning and you folks in the east bay in the south bay, you'll probably not going to really even see the rain until late this afternoon. so it's been pushed forward. howeverthe lion share of the rain, we're going to get for the remainder of all the stormy action over the next few days is probably going to be over the next say 24 hours or so, maybe actually and also coming with some winds. but their new ones do again. there's the shot of the radar. you can see the clear patches out of the south. we've been showing sitcom some camera shots around the bay, not looking bad to start your sunday. now the shot from sfo actually see some sunshine but to drive home. they have about a 25 minute delay or something like that. but the bigger issue is the stormy weather coming. that is going to cause problems. so you definitely want to check and see if your impact. everybody, you know, is we've been talking about the rain. this is out all the

way to wednesday, but the heaviest rain is going to be in this 18. our window. we are going to continue to get some locally heavy rain spots that come and go and severe weather still possible into tomorrow as well. very much on settled. so here's a look at those winds. you can see the wind advisory covers everybody through tuesday, but it is new on. so let's get a little bit more into that today. everybody gets the winds this afternoon. sure. but the heaviest line you can see along the coast, san francisco peninsula up are in then that takes a break. we do it again tomorrow. look at the coverage area, the east bay lot of the north bay were all getting in the 20's in the 40's or at least 20's and 30's. so you got those heavy numbers and also out west to where those more severe winds are going to be. and that's going to be coupled with local thunder showers, which can be a bit rough the time. so that's going to be monday. and then by tuesday, it's going to be just that leftover lighter rain, shower activity. contrast there, temperatures, russian little cooler this morning. we were from yesterday and the breakdown today, particularly in the east bay, you're probably

going to see those showers until 2 or 3 o'clock this afternoon. elsewhere, however, the going to start probably in the north bay marin, san francisco, that will probably start closer to around noon coming up in a bit. we'll kind of time this all out for you and take a peek. what's going on later in the week. stephanie. >> all right, dave, thank you. communities across the bay area are now bunkering down in advance of that bad weather that day was describing kron four's. tiffany justice is live for us now in moss beach with a look at the conditions out there. it's a funny. >> hey, stephanie hours starting off with some nice weather. but we do expect some rain later on today and has prompted some scope and spaces and parks be closed down. but however, here at pillar point bluff, we actually spoke with a park ranger and they tell us that after reassessing this trial, they have decided to open this trial backup. they're calling it a soft open. and if the winds get to gusty that they're going to close this trail back down. we also know that the golden gate national recreation area is also tweeting out a list of closures, including near woods

point bonita lighthouse and the stinson beach north line. we want to go to the north bay where parks and open spaces in fairfield are closed through next thursday. the city says the ground is still saturated from the last round of rain and the storms have caused an say frozen trial. conditions. and these are the scenes that officials across the bay are concerned about. this was yesterday downtown santa rosa on fore street. firefighters there say this tree knocked down power lines, causing isolated power outages. and in alameda, a large limbs snapped off of that tree. that's near city hall and it's believed the wind was a factor with and with the ground already saturated from yesterday's rain, there is concern that more trees could come down in the coming days. there are concerns about risks of flooding. this is video out of marin county warning drivers of possible flooding the entire bay area is under a flood watch that goes into

effect at 10 o'clock this morning. and, you know, officials across the bay area are reminding people if you do come across a downed power line, the first thing to do is call 9-1-1 and then call pg and back to stephanie. all right. tiffany, thank you for that. helpful guidance there in the north face and then beat creek beach near bodega bay will be closed this weekend. >> crews say they will be working to remove the grounded boat that's been stuck at the beach since last friday. crews say tied to refloat the boat at high tide earlier this week. but diesel discharged into the water. no word on how much diesel was spill. and one man is dead after a friday night shooting in oakland happened around 10, 15, 0, poor street near the oakland coliseum. officers found a man suffering from a gunshot wound. there. he died at the hospital. police say they did find a weapon at the scene. no word yet on a possible suspect. lawmakers at the state capitol are proposing new legislation. they say we'll address retail theft head-on. our capitol correspondent eytan wallace has a closer look at the

proposal. >> well, speaker events as part of this proposal are still in the works, but he and democratic leaders presented an overall framework they believe will combat retail theft. organized retail theft is a problem that we need to tackle. that's exactly what someone speaker rofert reeva says he's aiming to do with new legislation just introduced. >> chair of the assembly, retail thefts, select committee, democrat rick chavez burger and chair of the assembly public safety committee, democrat kevin mccarty joined reavis to formally announce the california retail theft reduction act. they're description a comprehensive set of reforms to address the issue of retail crime. while this group makes clear, the legislation is still coming together and will likely include changes following meetings with stakeholders. for now, this is the basic framework. first, the proposal put into law a penalty of prison up to 3 years for those convicted of stealing property with the intent to second, the bill will allow for what's known aggregation, meaning

several thefts committed by one person can all add up to meet the larger penalty for grand theft. 3rd on the issue of data, transparency, retailers will be required to provide data they've collected 4th. the bill calls for an expansion of diversion rehab programs like drug courts and 5th. the idea is to provide law enforcement with the tools to keep repeat offenders in custody. this package says to organized crime rings, we need a business and we're giving law enforcement the tools that they need to shut you down. we won't sweep this issue under the rug. >> and there will be a robust answer dealing with the issue of a retail theft in california, but not included in the bill. a proposal to repeal prop. 47 passed by california voters in 2014. the law change certain nonviolent crimes from felonies to misdemeanors, including theft when the items stolen are valued at less than $950. >> while supporters have long argued the law will help reduce california's prison population and lead to criminal justice reform opponents, including republican member tom lackey

say emboldened criminals to take part in certain crimes like retail theft, but little to no punishment from 47 was heavily contributed to the problem. >> and so in order to find a solution to have to first address the problem. that's prop 47 reporting at the state capitol. a tom wallace kron. 4 news. >> that a bay area sports, its nba all-star weekend kron four's. erin wilson has the highlights. >> well, that was saturday night during all-star nba all-star weekend in indianapolis with mitt that it was all-star saturday night for all basketball fans watching there. and, you know, watching on the television screens in the headline a bit. >> it was all about the bay area because they had the best 3 point shooting contest between the king and the talking steph curry and his close friend, former mayor, my high school sharpshooter. sabrina. >> and this you they both their goats of shooting. that's no secret. they went head to head. it was close. but steph continues to prove that he is the most deadly shooter of all time. curry top sabrina by only 3 points and

you was 7 for 7 out of the gate, but it was step who ended making 9 of his last 10 shots win. 29 to 26. imagine that these 2 have started a trained won't be the last time we see a nba wnba mashup in all-star week after these you know, put on such a show tonight. here is both of them. after the contest. >> tonight a lot of young girls and young boys that if you can shoot, you can shoes it doesn't matter if you're a girl or boy. i think it just matters the heart that you have a warning to be the best that you can be. >> this could gotten better in the sense to taking the chance in front of this stage. one around with all the hype and to deliver like that. she said the ball was unbelievable to watch. so this might be something almost anybody. to fill the shoes that it might be is something you need to do more often. >> i definitely think those are 2 pair shoes that would be very hard to feel. but we'll

have to wait and see how things happen. now, tulsa, back to you at the dentist. way to train pilots without traditional flight simulators and it costs a whole lot less. >> our rich demuro takes a look in this morning's tech smart. >> traditional pilot training is expensive and it requires costly equipment. now one startup is changing that with the virtual reality set up. that's more realistic and less expensive. >> is while. >> i know pilot, but i was just able to fly high above the streets of los angeles. the combination of the movement and the pressure and what your body reacts. it all adds up to a very real effect. this is not a video game week rate say pilots. it's a real life flight training simulator from start-up last dynamics. a is seeing bring a pilot who is

super skeptical getting on rise and the 3 ab. so instead of a big expensive dome shaped simulator. this is a virtual reality set up. it's more realistic at a fraction of the cost. i think it's a naked to see if he looks like a game. a lot wow, we are moving the system has been vetted by flight regulation agencies around the very >> right now it's being used for helicopter pilot training. keep the hill one year afternoon flyover santa monica. once inside, you get the feeling you're flying. but since it's br you can train for a variety of situations too dangerous for real life here in the united states and around the world. we're facing a major pilot shortage. serial entrepreneur and earthly founder sky is lead investor and pilot himself. >> this has incredible implications for making

aviation even since it's more affordable, it can be placed in more locations and the software can quickly updated with new training techniques. you want to train them over and over and over in the simulator for the you have the muscle memory. and it's just second nature when something goes wrong. >> right now the system is only being used to train helicopter pilots, but the company believes the same system can be used to train commercial airline pilots too. if you want to link for more information, you can go to my website rich on tech dot tv. i'm rich demuro and you are tech smart. >> and the senate to some of the higher limits and put the data in. for today's forecast, we'll get more of a challenge turning stormy by this afternoon. got about 64 by 3 o'clock. showers penetrate into the east and the south bay. we'll show you what you can expect today. and also tomorrow, next week brought 4 tomorrow, next week brought 4 morning news continues.

of days. temperatures you see fall reflecting the same situation. we're going to get most importantly, this low brings in that cold air aloft that will drive potentially some stronger weather so it could take a while for it to finally get here by 4 o'clock. you can see it's pretty much involved over most of the bay. these will be some heavier rain showers, thunder showers with that tomorrow morning. clear out we do the sunshine again, repeat with rain. but you can see it's much more sparse, but it will still have some bite in some pockets to so that's a takeaway from all of this. the winds pop, everybody's in that advisory zone. but along the coast is where it's going to be the most intrusive, much more widespread. by the way, those winds tomorrow, by the way, the winds do find it go away pretty quickly on tuesday. thank goodness. all right. here's a look at. we're looking at the longer range forecast. kind of a break. once we get to around wednesday, another storm system out to sea. it was supposed to go to the south. the right model runs today are shifting it to the north. stay with us. that may change next couple of days here when the euro model runs come. but

that's the traffic we're looking and into next weekend. here's the 4. a 7 day forecast going on here for you again, underscoring the unsettled weather to start things off with thunder showers. there. temperatures have been on the mild side to start the morning lows. get a little bit cooler. we get to thursday into friday and those overnight lows, by the way, also dropped a bit as well. so we're going to get the most amount of rain that we're going to get is going to happen today afternoon tonight. and then the winds are going to cover everybody by tomorrow. work focused on san francisco marin for today, though. and it's a little bit too. so, okay. and if you've got to be outside, probably have all the rain gear ready, brightness to stay inside on those winds. it will be a little reminiscent from 2 weeks ago in pockets except even in the worst pockets. it will be as long as it was last go-round. that's less thing. >> but we don't have any wind. so warnings going on. so that usually means property damage, but we can still get with okay. all right. well, thanks for keeping an eye day. okay.

>> well, just in time for the lunar new year is a new comic book highlighting the historic fight for equality by asian americans. i sat down with ceo of the asian american foundation, norman chen to talk about it this morning. take a look. well, happy lunar new year year. and so first of all, tell us a bit about the books. this is pretty exciting stuff in there really wasn't much media like this mean for you. and i pretty much going up. >> not very much at all. and so friend of mine is coming right? or and i asked her, are there any comic books for asian american history? she said no. so we decided great one as of this book has been the product of over the past year and came out just this past week. they're launching a national launch. well, congratulations on that. so walk us through some of the stories that are featured in this comic book was incredible. and in the u.s. mary, many people are ignorant about asian american history and our own research, 70% are

unaware are confused about asian history versus asian american history. and here we talk about important milestones such as the asian americans building the chinese railroad. now that connected the east coast and the west coast. we also talk about japanese incarceration during world war 2, which is really, really important. historical landmarks lots of stories that people just don't know about. they're included in this and so tell us about the significance of, you know, why you chose these particular stories to highlight. >> in the book. >> there are so many parts of asia, american history, pacific islander history that are included. so this is just a snapshot. kind of the tip of the iceberg. we have 2 other volumes coming out over the next 2 years. and we've worked with partners like the asian american education project to pick the most relevant stories that really captivate readers attention and was a target audience his unit. we know it's a comic book. that's right. >> is there a particular age that you're trying to reach out to? yeah, this is targeted mostly for middle school kids and we find that when kids see the book, they describe it and pick it up and start reading right away. but frankly,

younger kids start to read and they love it. older people, even adults are bound to find something interesting in this book is there. and i was reading a bit about the background of a major american foundation and the work that you're doing with this comic book. this is something that you're hoping the educators will introduce to students as well. absolutely. as part of our work, we're fighting hate but also building belonging prosperity across the country. we support organizations and we fight hate directly and cities around the country but longer term, we believe education and narrative change in storytelling are really important. it's a part of our work is promoting the teaching of api history all around the country and books like thts along with other materials from groups like ucla will be really, really necessary in the classrooms. i think this is going to be a treat for comic book fans in general to enjoy it because you've worked was some people who've, you been connected to marvel. and, you know, some award-winning artist that sort of thing. a walk us through the folks who you've collaborated with on this project. my partner amy chu is a friend of mine from

college. she went to wells the mit and harvard business school announced it's coming. folks full time. well, what a zing and so we she actually has this book now at the comic shows people come up to her super excited to learn more and about asian american history and actually read the book or themselves. wow, incredible. and you know that we touched on this a little bit earlier, but walk us you know, the asian american >> foundation as what is how long the guy's been around. tell us about the work that you do. >> we've been here for only 3 years, actually less than 3 years found by several prominent asian american pacific islander leaders from around the country. people like jerry yang here in the bay area chill its high from the east coast owner of the brooklyn nets. and they came together at the height of anti asian hate to say, hey, we need to come together, bring more resources, bring more visibility to our community, do try to work together to address anti-asian hate, but to along and prosperity in the future. so we really are unique and we bring together people from the business

world, the nonprofit world for last of the world media entertainment and also government to all come together and say, hey, let's work together to support the asian american community and pacific islander community. let's really try to make our issues better. understood and to move our whole community forward. and, you know, during the pandemic, that's when we saw a lot of concern about anti-asian but also a lot of people starting to find their voice and speak up about. >> you know, their culture and how proud they are to be aged america and speak about their asian stories what are the challenges that you see that still exist and persist today that you think should be addressed. >> well, anti-asian hate remains a major issue in this country. we just did a survey in new york city that showed that u.s. 50% of people have experienced directly some form of anti asian hate and one in 5 actually been physically attacked in the last year alone. so even though it may not be in news as much as it was a few years ago is still very prevalent in our society.

an issue that will just not go away. we need to work on a continually. so that's the anti hate peace but longer term is the stereotypes and the biases and discrimination against asian americans. people think the asian americans are highly successful in business and well represented when, in fact, the least likely ethnic group or racial group in this country to be promoted. what a shocking specially here in silicon valley to sink asian americans are the least likely to be promoted. but the reality is there still a lot of bias against asian americans and we need to address that as well. >> all right. thank you for making it for for bringing that up so much more. i want to talk to you about that. we do have to wrap up here shortly just to tie things off. if people are watching this, they're interested in learning more about the comic book and you work. how can how can perhaps get a copy for themselves? but to think so come to that half website f dot org to learn more about the asian american foundation where national organization and for the booking buy from amazon dot com. you can also get it from our website. okay, wonderful. and any message for

a very real effect. this is not a video game week rate say pilots. it's a real life flight training simulator from start-up last dynamics. a is seeing bring a pilot who is super skeptical getting on rise to pull 3 a b. so instead of a big expensive dome shaped simulator. this is a virtual reality set up. it's more realistic at a fraction of the cost. i think it's a naked to see if he looks like a game wow. we are moving the system has been vetted by flight regulation agencies around the very right now. it's being used for helicopter pilot training. keep the hill one year ago after new flyover santa monica. once inside, you get the feeling you're flying. but since its vr, you can train for a variety of situations, too dangerous for

real life here in the united states and around the world. we're facing a major pilot shortage, serial entrepreneur and earthly founder sky is lead investor and pilot himself. this has incredible implications for making aviation even safer. since it's more affordable, it can be placed in more locations and the software can quickly updated with new training techniques. you want to train them over and over and over in the simulator. something you have the muscle memory and it just second nature when something goes wrong. >> right now the system is only being used to train helicopter pilots, but the company believes the same system can be used to train commercial airline pilots too. if you want to link for more information, you can go to my website rich on tech dot tv. i'm rich demuro and you are tech smart. >> assembly speaker robert remus and legislative democratic leaders announced a new bill

will be around until 04:00am on tuesday. let's walk through with those winds will be intense. it looks like for today around san francisco, the coast peninsula and up to the north and then much more widespread in little longer lasting. it looks like tomorrow and this may pose maybe some power outages. also some damage along with it. and we should also mention both days will carry with it, some thunder shower activity and even some locally there, perhaps maybe some severe weather too. but even see some water spouts. and now we're looking numbers a little warmer this morning. we saw from yesterday by at least a couple degrees. and the breakdown today has plenty of sunshine to start with that. sunny at 10:00am that is mostly for the east bay. now and then the showers start coming in in the mid afternoon and will take a look at longer range forecast for you, stephanie. >> all right, dave, thank you. communities across the bay area are now bunkering down in advance of the bad weather bumpers. tiffany justice is live in moss beach with a look at the conditions out there to funding. >> all right, stephanie, we're

starting the day off with some nice, sunny weather, but we are expecting some rain later today. all of this rain has prompted the closure of some open spaces and parks. but here we do want to talk about this at pillar point bluff. we actually spoke with the ranger a park ranger this morning. they tell us that after reassessing this trail, they have decided to reopen in. but they have caution people about high surf and if in doubt, don't go out. they tell us that if when the storm comes through and if the winds are too gusty, they're going to close this trail back down. we also want to talk about this. a golden gate, national recreation area also tweeting out a list of closures, including might near woods point bonita lighthouse and the stinson beach north lot and over in the north bay parks and open space fairfield lows city says the ground saturated from all the rain got round. oz dave. all right.

looks there might be some technical issues with tiffany's, a signal. >> but we are going to work on that we'll see if we can bring it back later on the newscast today. weaving on to our next story. a man is dead after a friday night shooting in oakland. it happened around 10, 15 on oakport street near the oakland coliseum. officers found a man suffering from a gunshot wound. there. he died at the hospital. police say they did find a weapon at the scene. no word yet on a possible suspect. while makers of the state capitol a proposing new legislation they say will address retail theft head-on. our capitol correspondent eytan wallace has a closer look at that proposal. >> well, speaker events as part of this proposal are still in the works, but he and democratic leaders presented an overall framework they believe will combat retail theft. organized retail theft is a problem that we need to tackle. that's exactly what

someone speaker robert reeva says he's aiming to do with new legislation just introduced. >> chair of the assembly, retail thefts, select committee, democrat rick chavez burger and chair of the assembly public safety committee, democrat kevin mccarty joined reavis to formally announce the california retail theft reduction act. they're description a comprehensive set of reforms to address the issue of retail crime. while this group makes clear, the legislation is still coming together and will likely include changes following meetings with stakeholders. for now, this is the basic framework. first, the proposal put into law a penalty of prison up to 3 years for those convicted of stealing property with the intent to second, the bill will allow for what's known as gregate meaning several thefts committed by one person can all add up to meet the larger penalty for grand theft. 3rd on the issue of data, transparency, retailers will be required to provide data they've collected 4th. the bill calls for an expansion of diversion rehab programs like drug courts and

5th. the idea is to provide law enforcement with the tools to keep repeat offenders in custody. this package says to organized crime rings, we need a business and we're giving law enforcement the tools that they need to shut you down. we won't sweep this issue under the rug. >> and there will be a robust answer dealing with the issue of a retail theft in california, but not included in the bill. a proposal to repeal prop. 47 passed by california voters in 2014. the law change certain nonviolent crimes from felonies to misdemeanors, including theft when the items stolen are valued at less than $950. >> while supporters have long argued the law will help reduce california's prison population and lead to criminal justice reform opponents, including republican member tom lackey say emboldened criminals to take part in certain crimes like retail theft, but little to no punishment from 47 was heavily contributed to the problem. >> and so in order to find a solution to have to first address the problem. that's prop 47 reporting at the state capitol. a tom wallace kron. 4 news.

quantity is going to be a lot less than we're going to see today. let's go back to future cast for again. nice start into the afternoon. here comes the rain by 5. it's covered everybody by that point except the south bay. so you folks may not actually get this rain until later tonight. there's what goes on overnight. we're nice. we'll hit their predawn for you, folks. and then tomorrow morning, we start off the same kind of deal. opening up the skies temporarily spotty on those rain showers and heavy rain with some thunderstorm activity both today tomorrow and could come with some hail to potentially as well. want to watch out for perhaps pockets of severe weather as well. here's a look at the winds today. most focused on the west. that's where the heaviest rain are. the wind pop will be not as much in the east bay by comparison. it's short lived. however, goes away. we do the same thing again tomorrow, but much better coverage and notice how with the intensity still focused around san francisco peninsula, southern brand. good news like 2 weeks ago. that's not going as long

lasting these colors member. this we're all over the bay for an extended period of time. so, you know, you may get a pop that's close to what we had from before. it won't stick around as long and everybody loses the winds a lot quicker as well. so hopefully the damage in the power outages won't be as intense and as long lasting if you get them. so here's the traffic we have over the next 48 hours. once that the part is kind of sloppy to get out of here. but by the middle of the week, we take a breather for a couple of days. and i know this thing here in the model runs today. where was it was down here the south with the matter with that. so something got to watch out for might be repeating some of this rain deal again next weekend. but this is long-range out so things can and do change. reinforced by cooler fronts coming in from the northwest. this is the track we typically get in the winter months that come from the north go south. they don't have as much rain with them. but unfortunately, this system today is tapping into a lot of the subtropical jet and that's going make it very moist over the next about 24 hours. here's your seven-day forecast. we keep thunder showers in there really until tuesday. and they're going to

be much more sparse on tuesday, but they'll still be there. and that's a nice little warm up towards the end of the week and maybe showers again next weekend. unfortunately, stephanie. >> all right, dave, thank you. the noise pop festival returns to san francisco for its 31st anniversary next week featuring 11 back-to-back days of performances. i'm all about indie music acts in joining us live now to share more are noise, pop ceo michelle swing and festival talent buyer fred barnes. good morning to you, guys. good morning. all right. so first of all, super excited to have the both of you here. tell us about the festival and how you're feeling about it happening this year. yeah. so noise pop festival is a 10 day celebration of music, arts and culture in the bay area. it takes 12 venues around the city this year. we're really excited. we have so many things on the calendar actually doing 60 shows across the 10 days in claim 12 venues. so plenty to check out and >> it's really a unique festival in a special festival in that it gives music lovers in opportunity to not only,
