officials with the santa clara county medical examiner's office say the victim's identity and cause of death will be released once his family is notified of the homicide. we're live in the sherman oaks section of san jose this evening. jesse gary, ktvu, fox two news. we'll head back up to you in. >> yeah, you never know what someone can get upset about. did we know? did these two people know each other? were they separate? and did it happen in front of a lot of witnesses? there were witnesses because it's inside a liquor store. >> and also the liquor store has surveillance cameras. lots of them. so we have images of both the victim and presumably the suspect engaged. in this fight. those have been collected by the san jose police department. that that'll be used as part of the case that they're building against the suspect. and of course, they're getting witness statements from the folks who were inside the store as well. >> julie. all right. jesse gary reporting live for us tonight in san jose. jesse. thank you. all right, turning now to the

weather, i want to show you a live look outside from our roof camera looking west toward san francisco. you can see the city there in the distance. a lot of dark clouds there as that rain kind of roared back in this afternoon. it's been a wild weather day around the bay area with thunderstorms, heavy rain and some flash flooding. and this is what it looked like earlier today in san francisco. >> so there was a flash flood advisory for the city that expired just about an hour ago. cells of heavy rain moved through much of the bay area this afternoon. ktvu chief meteorologist bill martin is here with a look at those conditions. hey, bill. >> yeah, and even beyond that, greg, it was a flash flood warning, which is huge, right? flood a flood warning means it's happening now. it's going on. and so san francisco had all sorts of backed up drains, all sorts of problems as the rain came down, a lot of us got a quarter inch, half an inch. san francisco got over an inch of rain and pretty much a few hours. and so that causes problems. these are some of the rain totals. santa rosa was under an inch. it's rare that san francisco gets more than santa rosa, right? but it did. orinda got about a half of an inch of rain. the rest of us

anywhere between a half an inch and an inch of rain. but again, the rainfall rates were significant. that's where that flood warning came into effect. and i saw some videos from san francisco of lots of water running off, a lot of boiling up under the streets that has died down. the flood warning has been dropped. the ground is still wet, so a flood watch in effect for basically the entire bay area. and that is as more showers go through tonight, which should be limited showers, we're going to have the potential to still see some standing water and issues like that. so current rainfall, first of all, what's your first thing you notice. you go over here to over by groveland. you see the really powerful thunderstorms that have been going on. we had a few thunderstorms around here as well, but right now on the back edge of that weather system or that front has pushed through to the mountains where it is snowing to beat the band of winter storm warning stays up in effect there. they're getting a lot of snow. i talked to somebody up there about an hour ago and they said it is going off. so this snow is going to come down to the tune of, in many cases, an inch an hour. so they're going to be getting rain

or snow traveling an issue in the mountains through tonight into tomorrow morning. i'll have the full forecast and we'll look at the models and do all that in just a few minutes. >> all right, bill, we'll see you soon. thank you. the north bay, one of the areas seeing an extended flood advisory. this as communities deal with downed trees and other storm damage. ktvu tom vacar is live in san rafael with a look at conditions there. hey, tom. >> now it hasn't actually rained here to any note within the last 2 or 3 hours, but i want you to take a look at something right below me. this is called santa marga santa margarita creek. now it was built out of concrete in order to make sure that it wouldn't spill over into all the many homes in terra linda. and even though it hasn't rained in quite some time, you can see the drainage. and that's because the hills are so soaked and they've been so soaked for so long and so much rain has fallen in the last month that the ground is completely saturated. so what happens is the water has got to find the lowest level it can find as it's on its way out to the bay and eventually to the ocean and the situation here basically is this is under

control, but should any branches get in here or let's say more likely on a creek that isn't paved and get under a bridge or something like that, then this water would come up very, very quickly. if this were suddenly blocked within a few minutes, it would be up over its banks. and that's one of the dangers now, is that you not only have to think about the rain coming down , but now you have to make sure if you are a department of public works person, anywhere in the marine country, what you have to do is you have to go make sure that all of these places where there could be a backup are not backing up. now, i want to show you something. all of this water is coming from a relatively small area. this these are the hills around, um, terra linda. and these hills are not all that high. and this is not a very big canyon. nonetheless yes, again, so much water, so much soaking that that the water just keeps coming down and it will come down for days. and days to come. and ultimately what happens, of course, is at some point in time this will stop. but that is going to be a problem a long after we see the

last storm through here. and there are more coming. as we know. so the situation here is basically we're in the drainage situation. we are going to remain in the drainage situation. but if there were even a little squall pass over, this thing would come up a couple of feet. maybe three feet, very, very quickly. i've never seen it over flow here, but i have seen it get very, very high. that's the situation here. back to you. >> yeah. good visual of what all thatrillionain is doing. tom vacar live in san rafael. tom. thank you. >> all right. turning now to southern california, where more rain and wind have created major problems and increased the threat of more flooding and mudslides. ktvu cristina rendon picks up that part of our coverage tonight. cristina. well julie, the threat of flooding is expected to impact cities from los angeles down to san diego into tomorrow. >> and one of the areas in southern california getting hit the hardest right now is ventura county. this is the area of coyote creek. it's a known problem area for flooding and the constant rain so far this winter season has created a lot of problems for people living in the canyons. you can see there

the water just not receding. it's shut down that street. it's a concern for people who live there. as more rain heads into the region today and tomorrow, the this stays flooded. >> almost all year round. but it's much deeper now than it was before. the big rains. wow. and, uh, you know, some of our neighbors really suffer from it, so it's sad. and the earth needs the rain, you know? so it's like this mixed blessing and curse for people who are in the stream flow. >> this is video from seal beach showing the strong surf crashing onshore and rough seas as well evident at redondo beach in los angeles. this morning. a portion of pacific coast highway has been temporarily shut down due to flooding in the huntington beach area, and on monday, the storm temporarily closed. santa barbara airport. it also led to several flight delays at lax evacuations were ordered in some burn areas under mudslide threat. we know that some of those evacuation orders have been lifted, but officials warn that the threat of landslides is

still very real and the severe weather expected to move out of the state tomorrow and head into the midwest. julie >> yeah, so many places inundated with water. christina. thank you. and to stay up to date on the latest storm by downloading the free ktvu weather app. it has current conditions, a live interactive radar, and it breaks down the forecast hour by hour. a homicide investigation at an apartment complex in the south bay coming up at 530. >> what we know and what residents are saying. >> also ahead tonight, new information on the final preparations for san francisco's chinese new year parade set for this weekend and the new traffic configuration that's prompted some small businesses to file a claim against the city of san francisco

livelihoods. >> sfmta mta leadership have been behaving as if the citizens of san francisco work for them. >> david quimby owned amato's bar, a live music bar at 21st and valencia, but it closed in november, he says, because the two way protected bike lane installed last summer ate up parking spaces for customers. i have lost my business and dozens of other small business owners have either already been forced to shut down or are on the verge of losing everything. attorney niall vignole says he wants the city to remove the bike lane and compensate businesses for lost income. >> we contend that the city would not have built the center bike lane here if valencia street neighborhood did not have a high proportion of people of color residing here, business owners made their announcement at rossi mission, an art gallery at 19th and valencia. >> the city says it's reviewing the claims filed by the business and will respond in the appropriate time frame. >> it makes me want to be around the street a lot more and be

but i missed the train, so i would go this way to catch up. now you're not catching up now. i'm not catching up. it wasn't on the radio. i didn't hear about it, i didn't. there was no alert that anything. so now i got to turn around and try to get to 237. >> others weren't surprised. the storms did so much damage. >> no, because i got on my phone that there was like a flash floods and stuff like that. about 15,000 vehicles use this road each day, so it's going to it's going to make it a little hectic going to be a little bit. yeah. um hum i would guess so. yeah. all the rain that we've had adding to the alameda creek here, causing this rushing water that caused the landslide, now requiring much needed repairs here, caltrans workers are trying to figure out how to repair it and how long that might take. >> but with the risk of more landslides, with more rain, they want to keep it closed until at least friday in sunol. amanda quintana, ktvu, fox two news all right, we got some rain today, a little more than anticipated,

certainly by me. >> i thought we'd see rain, but not to the tune of an inch over an inch in san francisco, which caused that flood warning to be triggered. this afternoon. it's been dropped, but, you know, you get heavy rainfall rates like that and you got street problems and that's in fact what we had. so san francisco 1.34in today, pretty significant. santa rosa came in at just under an inch. the numbers are kind of a moving target right now, but the movement has slowed as most of that weather system now has kind of pushed off to the east, where it's getting entrained in the mountain flow, and things up there will continue annually as this thing slides up there. i think tonight, the next six hours in the lake tahoe area for a foot of snow, not out of the question at all, which is a significant snowfall rate. um, not sure exactly where that is, but that is the son i believe. and that is some cloud cover. i don't know exactly that shot is sort of moody little thing, isn't it? want to hang on it until the clouds clear? but i don't know if they're going to. okay, so what do we got? well, we got this system clearing out. you can see the fuel with the moisture. and then you see this

back edge here. this cooler air kind of sliding to the north of us. you see a few thunderstorms pop up along the west slope right about about the time the sun gets warm. and there they go. start popping. so as we go into tonight, the showers winding down, looking for temperatures to be a little cooler tonight than they were last night. they're running cooler tonight than they were. and then we've got these few scattered showers to go through. so in terms of the rain, most of it is done for early. and we did hit a tipping point in parts of the marin county. we saw flood advisories. so flood advisories and parts of the east bay, those have been dropped. but now we have flood watch for everybody for these stray showers that will come through. and there is a chance for a stray shower again tomorrow morning, but again, should be nothing like what we had today. and again, fortunate in that the afternoon commute sort of dodged a bullet here because this heavy rain ended right around 334. and that's when the commute gets going. so scattered showers for the next few hours that should be winding down. and then we'll talk about tomorrow coming up. all right bill, thank you.

the economy is simply not working for millions of hard working families. they're working harder than ever and they still can't make enough to get by to afford food and medicine to even keep a roof over their heads. we need to build more housing that's truly affordable. we need to address this terrible epidemic of homelessness. we need to invest in good paying jobs, union jobs and investments in our future. this, this is why i'm running for the us senate. i'm adam schiff and i approve this message.

deal to stop the fighting, and the vetoed proposal would not have accomplished that. >> we're eager to continue working with the council on this proposal, one that would see a temporary cease fire as soon as practicable based on the formula of all hostages being released. >> this comes as israeli troops close in on rafah in southern gaza, where hamas fighters have fled along with refugee and food and water is scarce. the us has tried to convince israel to avoid a major ground assault. there no attacks on rafah should should take place given current circumstances. the palestinians un ambassador said. the veto would lead to more fighting, while israel argued a cease fire only gives hamas time to reload the message given today to israel with this veto is that it can continue to get away with murder, with a cease fire in place, hamas will regroup,

re-arm and their next attempt at genocide against israelis will only be a question of when not if, a white house spokesman said they will continue to have meetings this week in the middle east to work on a hostage deal and a temporary cease fire in new york. connor hanson, fox news. earlier on the floor, we spoke with middle east expert stephen zunes about the conflict , chances of the united states decision to avoid backing the cease fire resolution. the main obstacle appears at this point, frankly, to be a prime minister. >> netanyahu, who has who has rejected calls by the united states by hostage families and indeed by much of the international community to move forward with the negotiations for a cease fire that would involve the release of israeli hostages in return for the release of palestinian prisoners. >> zunes said the united states move could be hurting its credibility in the international community. as israel continues

like, was it between the residents or was it a stranger who, you know, came in or so? >> is it normally just pretty quiet around here? >> yeah, i was literally this morning walking out thinking, um, how safe it was around here. no we are worried about the safety around here. >> santa clara police say this remains an open investigation, but they emphasize that there is no outstanding suspect being sought. reporting from santa clara, mark sayer, ktvu, fox two news, san jose's willow glen high school is stepping up its safety measures following threats to students last year. >> the new safety plan, now in effect, includes supervision for students at all times. gaps have been removed from student schedules. passes are now required for leaving all classes, and parents must be present to check their teen out early. there were a series of incidents on campus last year, including an arrest of a student who walked on campus armed with a loaded ghost gun and a knife. officials hope the safety plan will be adopted by other schools in the district.

over some skeptical conservatives who say they want more assurances. >> the number of migrants allowed to cross the border will go down significantly. >> it's not enough just to put the provisions in place. you got to have specific requirements attached to it to force biden to say, we're going to limit the numbers to something reasonable. there are also at least two other groups working on their own alternatives, while democrat leaders are still calling for speaker mike johnson to take up the senate version. >> what the last few days have shown us is that doing nothing is not only bad policy for america, it's bad politics for republican us. >> there's also been some talk of going around. speaker johnson and forcing a vote on one or more of these bills, but that likely wouldn't happen at the very earliest until next week, when the house returns on capitol hill. i'm aisha hassan, ktvu, fox two news law enforcement agencies disrupted the ransomware syndicate that's behind the recent cyber attacks

we did. we fixed almost 5000 potholes, which is a huge amount. it's usually what we do in about nine months, but no one is taking a victory lap just yet. >> well, it's something that we have to watch. it's very difficult to predict where water will go and what damage will actually take place every body knows that every year, potholes cost tens of millions of dollars worth of damages in california to automobiles. >> but a lot of people don't know if you hit them too fast in a car or on a bicycle. it can result in a life altering injury , if not death. in the previous five years, the city of oakland has paid out $27 million in personal injury claims for potholes, uneven sidewalks and fallen tree branches. included in that sum is a $6.5 million payment to an oakland woman who became a paraplegic when her bike struck a pothole on grizzly peak. tom vacar, ktvu fox two news. the santa clara valley

area weekend. and i said it's going to be a change. a lot as we go through time. so here we go through to tomorrow and then see this thing right offshore, that big curl. that's that's basically your your friday saturday, sunday potential for rain. look what it does. it looks like oh it's going to go off here on thursday afternoon. but it doesn't push east. it pushes south and back. it actually retrogrades a little bit. and so watch it kind of see where this low center is moving off. so there's friday well away from the coastline. it's going to be warm that's for sure. 60s mid upper 60s maybe even low 70. and then saturday evening and then right around sunday morning some clouds kick in. we might see a sprinkle. so right now that's kind of good news in terms of your bay area weekend. certainly in that we're not looking at for a while there it looked like friday, saturday, sunday, if that low had lingered, would have been a problem. so here's the highly granular model that is going to go out. here we are tomorrow morning. tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow mid morning maybe a sprinkle and then maybe another sprinkle. so there's a slight chance. but you see how how light it is. and then we

basically clear out. but then watch what shows up in the on your left screen here on thursday. and friday. on thursday that's the low. that's that cut off low trying to work its way down the coast and looks like it. both models agree that it's going to miss us and stay away. so i know that's a lot to look at, but just i want you to feel better about your weekend and i think you should look, when they cut off like that, they can do lots of things. in this case. and there it is now. right? can you pick it out? it's right there. right. so this is the low that's going to drop down and work its way out. so we'll watch it closely. but right now that's a fairly favorable situation for your weekend. scattered showers in the mountains. uh winter storm warning. heavy. snow. it's going off up there. they're going to be chained up on 50 and 80 all night. we're seeing scattered showers here, but most of that is winding down. they get up against the west slope of the sierra nevada. these storms and they get stuck. and so it's going to sit up there all night

and hammer. we'll get a chance for a sprinkle tomorrow. i showed you that on one of the early models. that is going to be pretty light. should be nothing like today. although today was more than i anticipated, but it shouldn't be. it should be really light. you saw the model yourself. so you go, okay. yeah, it didn't look like much. so tomorrow there is a slight chance for a morning shower. but then that's it. and then the five day forecast and saturday sunday. looking good. there is a slight chance on sunday remember we looked at it but look at those numbers. and warm temperatures as we go into the bay area weekend. >> all right. looks good bill. thank you. a fan favorite. the panda is back in a san francisco giants uniform. pablo sandoval began workouts yesterday. the giants spring training facility in scottsdale, arizona. sandoval . is 37 years old. he's trimmed down and many say he's in great shape. he last played in the majors in 2021, and he's been playing in venezuela, mexico, puerto rico and dubai. the giants signed him to a minor league deal with a chance to make the opening day roster. sandoval played 11 seasons with the giants and is a three time
