counterclockwise here around sa. santa cruz mountains 17 right there, heading right over san jose proper, los gatos. so and then peninsula as well, all up d san francisco, even so again, ye lowest a little bit too far offshore to really make a huge impact, but it will keep a lot of cloud cover in the forecast. and again, if you're farther south, probably a little bit more opportunity for rain here. but everyone's in on this a little bit as we go through the rest of today. then the good news is by thursday and friday we'll get a break 50 on the temps because of all the cloud 48. so a lot of 50s, but you can see a little bit right there over the bay heading over to richmond. so on 80 a lot of cloud cover. again, nothing widespread, but that's the best by far is up toward milpitas, san jose, los gatos, over to santa cruz, down to watsonville. and that line will probably continue to be the main focus

most of the morning after this system, we get a break thursday and friday, then we will cloud it up again on the weekendúweek systems next. okay system looks to be on monday, so we're not done yet, but at least we'll get some warmer temps on friday. so cloudy of the heaviest rain is south towards the santa cruze low 60s. >> all right thank coverage cons with somec important measures on the ballot in san francisco. so coming up we take a look at the latest numbers. when we come back and watching the votes come in at an election day watch party with some of the voters who were there, said about ome t everyone's hyped that wendy's made the official hamburger of march madness a buck. ♪ sandstorm by darude ♪ yeahhh! wooooo! but tyler and toby are on another level. - get it for a buck. - get it for a buck.

right into the peninsula. so there's some activity even a bi. lightning strike off the coast there. so you have to put that in yellow. why anybody puts it in white? i don't understand, you can't see it, but i'll fix it. and the amounts, no doubt about it, favor areas to the south san jose. look at that. i think there's going to be a little bit more than that in the santa cruz mountains. but areas to the north, which was all about you yesterday, that's not the case today. a couple of 40s. petaluma is in there. livermore but it's all about 50s. everyone's really close. i think they'll be close on the lows and same on the highs today. a little bit of rain over the bay, on 80 richmond and then heading up north, butúit kind of weakens as it goes north, but not to the south. so milpitas san jose sereno, you're in for some rain. santa cruz area, santa cruz mountains. so that's the focus for today. after that, we get a break system, will dive south. there will be another system kind of clipping us a lot of cloud cover on the way for the rainfall would be on monday into

tuesday, but sunny and warmer. so we'll we'll celebrate small victories, cloudy, cool drizzle to light rain. the heaviest rain is south, no doubt, and that will be the focus for today. if you can get a few sun breaks, you might pop into some mid 60s, but we'll save that for tomorrow. 60s on the temps. cloudy today. rain mainly south a break thursday friday, then more clouds on the weekend. >> all right steve thank you. time for 21 a shop inside one of san francisco's iconic hotels is closing. we'llc tell you the reasons behind that decision. >> and learning to read is child's development. we're going to show you how teachers and parents can play an active role in improving reading proficiency

>> our time now for 25 schools all over the country are still trying to recover from the setbacks during the pandemic. in reading proficiency. now, education experts say many students became far behind, with fell far behind in developing their reading skills while they were away from the classroom during remote learning. and that led to several innovative new reading programs trying to reduce that trend. one school district what's called literacy coaches to help the students catch up. >> we always say universal screeners wave the red flag. coaches can help by providing demonstration lessons. you know, walking side by side with the teacher. >> teachers say they're not the only ones responsible for the struggles these students are facing. they say parents also have to do their part to help their kids at home. >> students in nevada have a new pre-k program specially designed for those with visual impairments

skills kids learn at the nevada blind children's foundation is reading and writing braille. but the las vegas school has something that is more advanced than traditional braille machines. they have screens so that teachers can monitor students progress in the critical skills that they will need. throughout their lives. >> it's a lot of strength, motor strength that they need, so they will learn all of those motor skills in that pre-k classroom, either playing with play-doh, stringing blocks into, you know, a shoe string. >> so far, three students are enrolled in the spring pre-k class. barbara lee says she is still in the race for the california senate despite being in distant fourth place. we're going to show you the campaign event she held before finding out the results and a rise in nonsmokers developing lung cancer. >> what could be causing that to happen

drop out of the race for president. we have a live report we are learning about her campaign, and there are new concerns over disruptions in the polling process, the role artificial intelligence could what experts say we need to look out for with the upcoming elections. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two. good morning. us here on morning sun two. i'm pam cook and good morning it's . it'súwednesday it's march 6th. all right. >> we check in with steve paulson for a look at our forecast. what are you seeing >> a lot of cloud cover and rain down towards san jose that's for sure. here. 40s for only a few petaluma and livermore in there. everyone else is in the 50s here,c but san jose is reporting rain. watsonville says rain. there's still some light activity to the south, but the

focus will be no doubt about it. more towards san jose, santa cruz, santa cruz mountain, santa clara valley and peninsula along the santa cruz, santa cruz coast and san mateo coast as this upper low slides south, but the rotation around that is sending in some pretty good bands. 60s on the temps. all right. sal is here for 30 something new. we all right? what >> you know, hold on. let me turn all this down. we do have a new stalled vehicle in downtown oakland. 980 at 580. that's eastboundúthere, right there at the intersection. that's kind of a tough one. let's go and take a plaza. it is moving along very nicely with no major issues here. if you are driving through. traffic is moving along very nicely as you drive in, and if you're driving on is not thee okay. traffic is moving along the big news this morning, the presidential race. republican presidential candidate nikki haley said to be dropping out of

the race this morning. that's according to people familiar with her decision. and that's after she only won one state, vermont, inúthe super tuesday primaries. both president biden and former president donald trumpúeasily won their primaries here in california. >ñ and. first, donald trump had 79% of the vote, nikki haley 18. meantime time on the democratic side, president biden also locked in california. he secured 89% ofúthe vote so far. >> now, with nikki haley expected to be out of the race, it will be a rematch between president biden, former president donald trump in november. doug luzader joining us live from washington, dc with the latest on these new developments. good morning doug. good morning. so tell us what you're hearing about nikki haley's campaign, her possible departure and how that will affect the race.

>> well, nikki haley will announce in about 2.5 hours that she is suspending her presidential campaign, effectively dropping out. and not offer an endorsement ofll former president trump. she will not rule it out, apparently, but she will not offer up that endorsement, despite a pledge that many of the republicans had made through the debate season to endorse whoever was the ultimate republican nominee. now trump is not the nominee yet, but he is awfully, awfully close . after winning a slew of contests yesterday during super tuesday. >> how do you expect that to affect not going to endorse him, perhaps where will her supporters land? >> well, we don't know that she won't won't ultimately endorse him. it's certainly possible that that she won't. of leavingt possibility open today. you something. it doesn't mean that all your candidate that all your supporters just in lockstep move

and in a, in aúcertain direction . so clearly the biden campaign will make a play for haley voters as well, arguing that that trump has a weakness with moderate republicans and exhibit a for them will be vermont, the state that haley was able to pick up during super tuesday yesterday. >> do you expect that we will hear from president biden or rei haley's campaign and a response to that? >> i'm sure we will, you know, i think it's going to be interesting to see what specifically former president trump says about haley. i mean, they certainly had some bad blood there toward the end, but we've seen people reconcile before in politics. so it will be interesting to see not just what haley says about trump, but what trump says about haley. >> that will certainly be interesting bad blood. and, see if they can unite the party and what will come from this. doug luzader in washington, d.c. thank you for your insight. thank you. well, here in california, voters had only one

statewide ballot proposition. proposition one would allow the state to borrow $6 billion to use to build mental health and substance abuse treatment facilities. it would also build supportive housing for the homeless. now the proposition has the support of governor newsom, law enforcement and first responders. opponents questioned the constitutionality of the measure as well as the cost. the results this morning still pretty close to calls. you can see there on your screen on yes, 49.5% voting no. so far. >> all right, pam will, democrat adam schiff and republican steve garvey are expected to move on to the november election? in the race for california's openúu.s. senate seat. schiff and garvey have commanding leads over their rivals, but there are still many votes to count. barbara lee, despite coming in fourth place, says she's still in the race.

ktvu cristina rendon was in oakland, where barbara lee held a campaign event for release. >> keys barbara lee, standing alongside the leading candidate to be her successor. member of bart board of directors lateefah simon. >> i'm going to pass this baton. she got to you that ron dellums passed to me. >> lee is vacating her seat in congress to run for the late senator dianne feinstein's seat. she thanked volunteers and she's fought against challengers with more money. >> when you look at 30 some million dollars, when you look at 20 some million dollars by my opponents, it's like, come on, what do you think that is? i mean, i don't take corporate pac money. you could see the disparity in the money. i mean, spcome on, the establishment moy doesn't go to a black progressive woman. but we have people and we have low donors. we have recurring donors for the past 26 years as congresswoman for the 12th district, she's held tough representing oakland in the east bay. >> she was the lone vote opposing the invasion of

afghanistan in 2001. she's fought for reproductive rights more recently, she was among the first to call for a permanent ceasefire between israel and hamas. her backers include celebrities, bay area politicians and grassroots organizations. >ñ people understand that i see them, i hear them that i want to make their lives better, lee said. >> she'll be watching the votes in the coming days and also looking to the future in simon, who was once her student when lee taught at mills college. i will never, ever be able to fill your shoes in congress. >> you were my professor. >> but you've been more than that to me. we hold this baton so sacred. barbara lee speaks for me. >> cristina rendon, ktvu fox two news. all rightn >> christina, thank you. when congresswoman barbara lee decided to run for senate, she gave up her congressional seat in the house. she endorsed lateefah simon to be her successor. latifa simon serves on the bard board of directors,

and she picked up endorsements from governor gavin newsom and lateefah simon is leading with 43% of the vote, compared to 17% for. >> i went back. to. an amazing legacy of the incredible ron dellums, the incredible legacy of barbara lee is one that i will deeply attach myself to. >> i deeply understand that violence now lateefah the noveml election. she will probably face jennifer tran, a cal state east bay professor who was born and raised in oakland. her parents were refugees from vietnam. >> we have a look now in san francisco where voters had to decide on seven different citywide initiatives. >> now, measure a would issue $300 million in bonds to pay for

affordable housing construction that measure needs at least twoo pass. >> all right. and so far it does have 67, the six that was the previous one, measure b would set a minimum standard for police staffing and would establish a fund for officer recruitment and staffing. it could also result in a new tax, or amend existing taxes in the future to help fund that. so far, 67. no 33. yes on this, this one and all the others that follow need only a simple majority to pass and pam measure c would give a one time exemption on ownership transfer taxes for buildings that are converted from commercial to residential use. >> you can see the yes vote received 54% of the vote. the no vote 46, and measure d would expand the list of gifts that city employees cannot receive. >> 88% going to yes no votes,

just 12% there. >> now is one of the most closely watched of the citywide measures in san francisco. it would give expanded powers to san francisco police. it would also reduce the powers of the city's police oversight commission. you can see the vote results 60. yes, 40% no. now, some city leaders say if these results hold as they are now, it's a path in the wrong direction for san francisco, proposition e to me is a hail mary by this mayor, who knows public safety is one of the top concerns, and yet she's playing on people's fears. >> there's nothing in proposition e that will make san francisco safer. it will only make san francisco less safe. and it will target communities that have been overpoliced for decades. >> also closely watched is measure f, which would require adults without dependents who receive public assistance from the city to be screened for illegal drug use. if the person

is determined to be dependent on illegal drugs, they would be required to receive treatment in order to continue receiving benefits. 63% of the votes were spyes, 37% no. there's still soe questions. if it would have a long lasting effect. >> we don't have the resources to actually provide treatment to the folks who even need it now, who are asking for it now. they're waiting in line. and so it's a false promise. is one of one of the problems we have with it, but also the unintended consequences are that it will increase homelessness. so some people may get increased treatment will see more and more people who actually have substance use disorder ending up back out on the streets. >> and finally, there is measure g. it would urge the san francisco unified schoolt& district to offer algebra to eighth grade students once again

. now, the measure is not legally binding, but it would encourage the school district to offer algebra in eighth grade if it passes. look at the vote's results. the yes vote was 84. now there are many other local propositions and races that we have information on, and you can find that at our website, ktvu .com, along with the fox local app. >> all right. back over to steve paulson checking in on our forecast. where are you starting? >> well, we'll start offshore and then work our way north and south here because the system is doing what we thought. it's going down the coast. but boy the moisture wrapping around coming around counterclockwise is still giving us a lot of cloud cover and some rain now not nearly as much to the north. there is some there, but it's all about really san jose. santa cruz, santa cruz mountains. watch that. look at that lifting up. and there's some pretty good rain being reported. los gatos as well, along highway 917 and along the san mateo coast, santa

cruz coast into the peninsula as well. so that's the main focus here for the morning, and that's probably will end up being the most rain, although this forecast model is showing most of it in san jose, i would think it would be in the santa cruz mountains. that's where the most has been. bonnie doon and ben lomond have had just shy of a half inch of rain the last 24 hours. mainly 50s on the temps, couple of 40s, but mainly 50s. we're probably stuck on that. there's still some light activity around theúbay lifting northward along 80, so it's either sprinkles, light rain or a brief, brief shower. there's not a lot of heaviness to that, but there is to the south, no doubt about it. so that'll be the tune for the morning here into the late morning early afternoon as the low slides south. it will produce probably some pretty good rain down along the monterey peninsula to big ts way to southern california. we will get a break thursday and friday. next system will cloud us up on the weekend. next rain looks to be monday and tuesday. these are not big systems for the sierra, but they'll probably get a little bit of snow out of that. but you're still good to go if you're going to go going to the mountain, go friday. that

will be by far and away the best day. cloudy, cool. maybe some drizzle north, but rain mainly south. and that will be the forecast through the afternoon and evening as well. around the santa cruz san jose area. 60s on the temps today as we get some rain. a lot of cloud cover starting to clear out. thursday friday looks warmer than clouding up on the weekend. >> all right, thank you steve. congresswoman anna eshoo retiring after more than 30 years in office. we have the latest results in the crowded race to replace her. >> and saving the cheesecake factory in san francisco. the new concerns that that restaurant could close at the same time as the macy's in union square

commission banned the use of ai generated voices for unsolicited robocalls. the agency warned the technology can be used to misinform voters. >> we do anticipate that generative ai certainly has the potential to increase misinformation campaigns. it can magnify or amplify the risk that already exists, right now, today, super tuesday, it's very quiet. we are not hearing of any spread of misinformation. but we know as we get closer to the general election, that will all change. >> election offices across the country say they are more worried about the use of ai technology to deceive voters than hackers breaking into voting systems. >> our time now. 446 the cdc says there is an alarming increase all over the country in the number of nonsmokers developing lung cancer, the cdc found cigaret smokers are still

came in for buying the business. ultimately, silber was selected as the new owner. now he comes with a long background of running other bay area businesses as well. >> i know, i just i've heard people talk about just, you know, well, i remember i used to cost this. yeah. all right. steve paulson, you and sal do your best. like old guy sitting on the porch. >> voices sometimes another profession where you get up very early. >> that is true. inúthe middle of the night. >> you got to get up to bake that in. no kidding. yeah. all right. rain totals. mount tamalpais is the most i've seen last 24 hours with three quarters of an inch. now the focus more towards santa cruz, santa cruz mountain, san jose, bonnie doon, almost a half inch. ben lowman, 42, south san jose, a quarter of an inch. bennett quarter of an inch kentfield and mount diablo, about 16/100 in los gatos, has picked up 0.08. see, our system there came right

as we thought to the coast. now it's heading down the coast, but it's the moisture wrapping back around this way, doing this. see, that's the flow around that. and yes sir, it is producing some pretty good activity in around the san jose area. but there's some hit and miss all over the place here.t& but the focus, it is, is towards santa cruz, santa cruz mountains, san mateo coast peninsula and then san jose right up towards fremont, los gatos, and maybe in the santa clara valley. and that's where we'll keep it most of the day.t& that looks to be the focus of where the heaviest amounts will be, again, areas to the north. i mean, i'm not sure i buy that concord livermore, but you're certainly in the window areas north. not so much. areas south, no doubt about it. 50 on most of the temps. it's pretty close goingúto change all that much. this is not a system for the sierra 24, in southúlake tahoe, 36 in reno. but boy, this is a system for if you're on the peninsula, san santa clara valln to santa cruz, you can expect some moderate to heavy rain, but at times here. but there's some light activity. just kind of

drifting northward, especially towards the east bay over san pablo bay, lifting north. so there's not a lot to that. but the system after it drives south, it will start to clear the area. look at the subtropical jet now that's staying south. but there's a lot of activity there. but i think it will stay south for now. and next system for us will be on the. but that looks just cloudy. but monday and tuesday i think we get back into some rain with some light mountain snow, notc expecting heavy amounts. 5060s, mainly 60s on the thames. cloudy, cool drizzle, rain mainly south and that's the area from san jose, santa cruz in that vicinity will get the most rain today. good news is can you give me a break on friday? yes, i can, it'll be warmer then we cloud it up again on the weekend. >> all right. thanks for the break, steve. pre-k for the blind. the state that's creating a program designed to help kids early in life. and oakland mayor shengtao says she's not done fighting to keep the a's in future of the teamsays about the

the patternúactive. aptos, capitola, santa cruz, right into scotts valley, ben lowman, and also over over towards the santa clara valley. but there a little bit east of it, that looks to be where the most rain will fall today. although not sure i buy that for concord and livermore. i definitely am in on it for i'm down for fremont, san jose, morgan hill. there will be more than that for ben lowman. i think santa cruz, they've already had about 45/100 of ben lowman and boulder and bonnie doon, 40s forúa few 50s for most. these probably won't change. there's too much cloud cover. this is not a big system at all for the sierra nevada, but it is a pretty good system here for the peninsula and san jose, san jose area, los gatos down to santa cruz and right along the coast there. look at that. i mean, starting to head northward well, even areas to the east. last few images here. livermore san ramon, san ramon, concord. so some light rain there, but the system is on its way out of the picture. once down towards san jose monterey, then it'll push into southern california. thursday and friday. more cloud

closing a half 100 south san jose, a quarter of an inch. bennettc valley, santa rosa area, also quarter of an inch kentfield and mount diablo is 16/100 in los gatos, has picked up 8/100. the upper low is swinging southward, but the rotation around that is sending in some pretty on the san mateo coast, moving up south to north on the peninsula. i know i've seen some rain on the san mateo bridge clipping san jose campbell milpitas heading over to fremont and you can see moving right along there along skyline as well. but the heaviest by far has been around san jose campbell into the santa cruz mountains. now that's you're getting a little bit of distortion because it's going over the radar site at mount aluminum. but still, there's some rain there back on 17 highway nine back into scotts valley, santa cruz, capitola, aptos and over towards the santa clara valley. heaviest amounts would, no doubt about it, be in will be more, i think, ink there bethlehem and santa cruz than san jose. not sure i buy the concord livermore, but they'll get some rain. there's some heading in that direction already. 50 on the temps here.

for that decision, and learning to read is extremely important for the development of any child. we'll show you how teachers and parents can have an active role in improving

still trying to recover from the setbacks in the reading skills of children during the pandemic. education experts say many students fell far behind in

developingc their reading skills during remote learning and that has led to several innovative new reading programs in an effort to reverse the trend. one school district in georgia is hiring what's called literacy coaches to help the students catch up. >> we always say universal screeners wave the red flag. coaches can help by providing demonstration lessons. you know, walking side by side with the teacher. >> now, teachers say they're not the only ones responsible for helping those struggling students. they say parents also have to do their part to help their kids at home. well, students in nevada have a new pre-k program. it's specially designed for children with visual impairments. one of the main skills kids learn at the nevada blind children's foundation is reading and writing using braille. but the las vegas school has something that's more advanced than traditional braille machines.

they have screens so teachers can monitor the progress of students in the critical skills they'll need in their lives. it's a lot of strength, motor strength that they need, so they will learn all of those motor skills in that pre-k classroom, either playing with play-doh, stringing blocks into, you know, a shoe three students are enrolled in the spring pre-k class.úour time is 525. barbara lee says she is still in the race for the california senate, despiteúbeing in a distant fourth place in the primary. we'll show you the campaign event sheúheld before finding out the vote results. and a rise in the number of nono happen? don't forget you have the you can have the morning headlines delivered right to juo ktvu.com/email. sign up for the dail

things on, steve. and i'm also going to show you what the traffic looks like in general. let'súgo right to our triple a traffic cameras here and show you that 80 westbound at the macarthur maze looks okay. east 80 near pinole valley road, there is a crash out carquinez bridge. bay bridge doesn't look all that slow right now. itúmight change in the next half hour. san mateo bridge is moderate. you see, our cameras are showing wet weather. we have a brand new crash just came in southbound 101 right near the capital expressway. that one's so new that we don't know what's happening, but they're sending the emergency all right.ack to the headlines. >> thank you. sal. the big news this morning in the presidential race is republican presidential candidate nikki haley expected to drop out of the race this morning?úthat's according to people familiar with her decision. and that's after she won only one state, vermont, in the superútuesday primaries. >> now, both president biden and former president trump easily

won their primary elections in california. let's look at the republican primary results. donald trump 79% of the vote. nikki haley has 18. meantime, on the democratic. he secured 89% f the votes so far. well, in just over an hour from right now, nikki haley is expected to announce she's dropping out of the presidential race. reporter doug luzader has more from washington, dc on where it all goes from here. doug good morning. >> good morning. former president donald trump has not locked up the republican nomination at this point, but he is so close. nikki haley clearly does not see a path tuesday fora reason. >> this is a big one. >> the former president trump celebrating one night. but namea

report first in the wall street journal that nikki haley is calling it quits. >> i think if i'm the democrats at this point, i have to be evaluating. can i get any of those? haley voters to come over to my side? and i'm not sure that there's a real path for them to do that. >> the pundits will spend the day debating where the race goes from here, but for the front runners, super tuesday played out largely as expected. for trump. it was almost a clean sweep. nikki haley was able to win in vermont, showing trump's challenges with moderate republicans, but in a departure from recent election days, haley did not make any appearances last night, issuing only a statement. unity is not achieved by simply claiming we're united. >> my poll number is the last five polls you guys don't report. i'm winning. >> earlier in the day, president biden took issue super tuesday.d like trump, he was almost undefeated yesterday, losing only american samoa to a virtually unknown challenger. >> so i found out that i won the primary because my phone started

blowing up. >> baltimore resident jason palmer was able to pick up three delegates despite never having been to american samoa. and while biden's wins elsewhere were decisive, he did have to contend with a high number of voters who chose uncommitted yesterday, many of whom are democrats, protesting his support for israel. now, we are told that nikki haley will not offer an endorsement for former president trump today, but shec is also expected to not rule it out at some point. back to you guys. >> all right. doug luzader live in washington. thank you for that update. california voters had only one statewide ballot proposition. the proposition one would allow the state to borrow $6 billion to use to build mental health and substance abuse treatment facilities. it would also build supportive housing for the homeless. now the proposition has the support of governor newsom, law enforcement and first responders. opponents questioned the constitutional safety of the measure as well as the cost.

this, the results this morning. as you can see on your screen, there still too close to call 50.5. yes, 49.5% no. >> and democrat adam schiff and republican steve garvey are expected to move on to the november election. in the race for california's open u.s. senate seat, schiff and garvey had a commanding leads overt& their rivals, but there are still a lot of votes to count. and barbara lee, despite being in fourth place, remains optimistic. now she's leaving her seat in congress to run for the senate. barbara lee said her race was a progressive movement and she'll be watching the the y thanked her volunteers and voters for their support at her campaign headquarters in oakland. despite the uphill battles she faced against spchallengers who had more mone. >> so when you look at 20, some million dollars by myc opponent, it's like, come on, what do you think that is? i mean, i don't take corporate pac money. you

can see the disparity in the money. i mean, come on, the establishment money doesn't go to a black progressive woman. but we have people and we have low donors. we have recurring donors. >> now. ktvu asked barbara lee about her plan for the future regardless of the vote outcome. she decided not to answer. barbara lee headed back to washington, dc shortly after the polls closed and did party in on francisco voters approved several propositions onútheir local ballots, including a measure that gives police the >> ktvu is ali rasmus talks about the results and the reaction to this. ali >> yeah, there were a total of seven local measures on the san francisco ballot for voters, and voters approved all but one of them of the measures that passed, the six that did pass, two of the most controversial and consequential are measures e and f. let's take a look at the vote totals for measure e at 60%

of the vote it passed with. it authorizes the city to install public surveillance cameras, and use drones, facial recognition technology, as well as chase people suspected of committing violent crimes and felonies. now, when it comes to measure e, the police policies proposition that passed, voters were conflicted about it, the one about surveillance. >> i had a lot of challenge with i don't want to say publicly what i did, but i thought that was a really difficult issue for me. >> there are safeguards built into the measure for folks that are concerned. you know, the police department will have to go to the board of supervisors every year to basically explain that they're using fromootage surveillance cameras, from dronesn they'll have to explain how they're using the technology. we >> now let's show you the results of measure f. it passed with 60% of the vote as well. it requires people on public assistance in san francisco to go through drug screening tests and get substance abuse treatment. now, opponents of that measure say the city does

not have the resources to provide substance abuse treatment to everyone who would need it to qualify. they called it a false promise. now, the one measure that failed was measure b, which would have tied police staffing levels to tax increases. voters rejected that one here in san francisco, but san francisco voters overwhelmingly 80, a measure syc measure that calls on san district to start teaching algebra to eighth graders,c once again live in san francisco two news. >> all right. thank you. allie, there are many other local propositions and races and you can find all that information at ktvu.com and our fox local app. >> all right. our time is 538. the nonprofit group responsible for a 72 mile cleanup of lake tahoe just released information from its two year survey of lake of the lake tahoe. clean up the lake says its dive teams went back to 20 litter hot spots on the nevada side of the shore.

there was almost 880 pounds of litter in these areas in 2023, a major improvement from the almost 3,000 pounds of litter in 2021. the next step focusing on cleaning up the areas deeper in the lake are. i know that means a lot to you. >> it does i their efforts seriously, i so much so yes and shame on people leaving trash behind. look, i understand sometimes you're on a boat. things fly off. i get that that's true. sometimes it happens. >> that is true. >> but, you know. >> but on theúbeach, no excuse. but thank you to all those people cleaning it up. yes. >> mount it? well, you've had the most rain that i've seen in the last 24 hours. atúthree quarters of an inch. i'll tell you, there's some pretty good i want to tell you. there's some pretty good now. bonnie doon, almost a half- inch of rain south of blossom hill along the almaden expressway. santa teresa boulevard. i cannot get more specific than that. 0.47 what?

danville 4/10 usually i don't. that's a little outside my forecast zone, but that tells you there are some lines a pretty good right now up towards santa rosa. bennett valley last 24 hours, quarter of an inch san jose. even the dry biased san jose airport 17/100, la honda 15 and los gatos now up to 11. the low is making its move, but boy is it pumping in some prettyt& good moisture coming in from the south it is lifting north. look overútowards walnut creek now concord up tot& solano county, starting to lift a little northward over san pablo bay, even into marin county, but without a doubt, it's all about san mateo coast, the peninsula, and then about fremont south towards milpitas. although it is not hitting morgan hill, it is now. you can see milpitas, san jose, campbell , los gatos, sunnyvale, san mateo bridge that's near the radar site at mount almanor. so it's a little distorted, but you can see the moisture coming up and that's aptos, corralitos, capitola, santa cruz, scotts valley to ben lowman and boulder creek. so that's the line i looked at five, six different rainfall accumulation amounts.

here they are all over the map, so to speak. i went with one that was kind of in the middle. i think there will be more than that for some in the santa cruz mountains. san jose. not sure i buy the livermore concord, but more amounts south, less amounts north is today. 50s on the tempa few 40s. but look at the moisture streaming northward though. yet you can see how it's going right along. see? just not much. it's right there and then heading along towards the peninsula. that's the main band as that lifts northward. so we're in for rain here as it lifts northward into now areas, you know, lighter amounts north, but it's still there. after this system goes by, we get a break. a lot of moisture down here. look at all that moisture. tropical moisture here. but it's not playing into our weather. but we'll get a break thursday, friday, friday looks warm. and then a lot of cloud cover on the weekend with next system for rain being on monday into tuesday. these are not big snow spproducers. so 60s for temps today. off and on. rain mainlyt& south and east. heaviest amounts

san jose santa cruz area. >> all right thank you steve. one local city is fed up with illegal dumping coming up at 6:00. the new fine people will have to pay if they dump trash along the roads in pittsburgh. >> and saving the cheesecake factoryúin san francisco. the new concerns thatúthat same time as the macy'sat thet- and union square

grand bakery, officially taking over the business from sam it's back in october. he was selling the grand bakery for $1. more than 200 submissions came in to buy the business. ultimately, baer silber was selected as the new owner, and he comes with a long background of running other bay area businesses. >> it's all right. not sure why he's just selling the business for a dollar, but i'm sure wanted to get rich, wanted to just pass it on and keep the tradition going. so a lot of people happy about that. yeah >> all right. and you know, these segments that you put before me are always food. i'm beginning to catch on. oh yeah. >> that's true. good point. >> i know that dave and i are always hungry. right. >> this is true. this is true. >> so let's go. let's go and take a look at the triple a traffic camera here in san jose. steve has talked it is this camera shows it clearly. we don't have extensive slow

traffic in the south bay. there are a couple of spots here and there for the general commute is okay. when you get out to the macarthur maze, you can see that traffic and it looks like it may be raining here as well. at the bay bridge toll plaza. it's definitely wet and we're getting a little bit of a backup. and on theúsan mateo bridge, the traffic is moderately heavy. so we've had a couple ofúthings out there. steve as i go to you, i was feeling a little bit adventurous today and i tied the double windsor. >> it's a nice nod, sal. it's my go to not the double windsor. >> yes, windsor. i got to be honest with you. >> it depends on the on the material. sometimes the singer single is as well as you want to go. yes, sir. otherwise it looks like the hangman's noose there. all right, we do have sal's, right. there's a rain moving up now. it's aúfine line between who's getting some and who is not on the san mateo coast. no doubt about it. skyline. there was some on the san mateo bridge and then over towardsc fremont. milpitas, you can see some, but really, it's about san jose.

it's about you, san jose. look at that. now again, thatgs near mount almanor on the radar site. so it's kind of obscured. but over to campbell kind of distorted a little bit, but i could tweak it. but why, santa z mountains, although it isúnot along morgan hill, san martin and gilroy, if it does, it's light. but look at that coming up. aptos, capitola, santa cruz. i mean, there's been some half inch amounts over towards the ben lowman and also boulder creek, bonny doon, close to about 4/10 to a half inch. really tough on the projection on the rainfall. suffice to say there will be less amounts north , far amounts south, i think. i think san jose gets more than that. south san jose's i've already seen a 47/100 just south of san jose. 50s on the temps here for most, but you can see the moisture streaming north and now might be starting to clip right there. oh, it's so close. but maybe a couple of bands will flirt with gilroy morgan hill, but most of it is to the west of them. towards santa cruz, santa cruz mountains, los gatos, san jose, and lifting northward. now even oakland, heading over into mill, into millc valley, marin county over san pablo bay, lifting up to solano county.

it's lighter amounts. there system is on its way southward. it will clear the area by later , friday, we'll get a break.rrow more cloud cover rolls in on the weekend. next rain will be on monday. tuesday? then it does look like somewhat of a break, but i'm reluctant in leery to go haven't had any of this entire winter, you know, like 2 or 3 weeks dry stretch, which is very common in mid winter dry spells. we haven't had any. and i think we'llc get maybe a week. then after that all bets are off. in my humble opinion, 60s on the temps. look for warmer temps though by friday. >> all right steve thank you. our time is 551. a request for ac transit to skip someústops in downtown oakland because of safety concerns is up next att& 6:00. how the new permanent detour will affect weekend services. >> and oakland mayor shengtao says she is not done fighting to keep the a's in oakland. what she is saying about the future of the team

over 33. garvey is second at 32.5% will behind him. well behind him is katie porter and barbara there, 14 and 7% respectively. this race is still to fill the senate seat currently held by laphonza butler and also by the late senator dianne feinstein. for almost 31 years. of course, campaign spending hitting record levels for this primary, almost 250% more spending than the last three california senate races combined. mustered the support f california republicans. he says the election is just the first game of a long doubleheader. >> for the second game is going to be daunting. it'll be almost like a super bowl over the next, fourth quarter or eight innings, but i think itúshould be exciting for all of us. i mean, it's actual competition now. >> well, garvey knows it's an uphill battle. california has

not elected a republican to the us senate since 1988, and that is the year after garvey retired from baseball. schiff, on the other hand, is the overwhelming favorite. he's congress for more than 20 years and has a campaign war chest that's spent almost $50 billion in ads. >> you helped us build the biggest grassroots campaign for senate in california history, and i cannot thank you enough. >> but schiff, during his victory speech, was reminded that the november general election will not be smooth sailing. schiff, a strong supporter of israel to defend itself at pro-palestinian demonstrators, chanting cease fire now and free palestine! interrupt his speech. one person was escorted away from the stage. schiff later said we are lucky to live in a democracy where we all have the right to protest now. schiff had hoped to face garvey, a rookie politician, but schiff must now mend fences with his democratic opponent, katie porter, and barbara lee, both of them from

mountains. so look for some rain this morning. when it rains, it pours. well i'll tell you, we're stuck in our. it's a rainy pattern. cloudy, cool morning rain south to north. heaviest rain, though, will be to the south. here i would favor the santa cruz mountains, san jose area 60s on the temps. all right sal is here. if you have a fast car, you may not be going too fast. >> no, sir. no, sir. right now, definitely. if you are driving here on the bay bridge, your fast car will do you no good. it's backed up all the way out. this is the triple a traffic camera showing big backup here at the toll plaza. no major problems on the bridge. 80 westbound. still a big problem. eastbound 80. all lanes blocked because of a crash at pinole valleyúroad. it's beginning to affect is slow. 680 is okay. northbound 280. they cleared that crash in daly city. the south bay. sort of slow because of the wet weather. i think that has something to do with it. get yourself extra time let's go back to the desk.2t-

>> all morning and the presidential race, republican presidential candidate nikki haley is expected to drop out of the race this morning. that's according to people familiar with her decision after she only won one state, vermont, in the super tuesday primaries. >> now, both president biden and former president trump easily won their party's primaries here in california is look at the republican primary results. donald trump with 79% of the vote. nikki haley has 81. meantime, on the democratic side, president biden locked in california, getting 89% of the vote so far. >> well, nikki haley's campaign says she will make the statemen& outside her home in south carolina just about half an hour from now. doug luzader joining us now live from washington, dc with the latest on these new developments and the impact this will have on the campaign trail. >> doug, not really a surprise, really. when you look at the numbers here, i mean, nikki haley just did not have much of

a path forward and she will call it quits. it sounds like in about a half an hour they call it super tuesday for a reason. >> this is a big one. >> the former president trump celebrating one win after another last night. but he never mentioned his one remaining challenger by name. and now a report first in the wall street journal that nikkiúhaley is calling it quits. >> i think if i'm the democrats at this point, i have to be evaluating. can i get any of those haley voters to come over to my side and i'múnot sure that there's a real path for them to do that. >> the pundits will spend the day debating where the race goes from here, but for super tuesdad out largely as expected for trump, it was almost a clean sweep. nikki haley was able to win in vermont, showing trump's challenges with moderate republicans. but in a departure from recent election days, haley did not makec any appearances last night, issuing only a statement. unity simply claimin. >> my poll number is the last five polls you guys don't

report. i'm winning. >> earlier in the day, president biden took issue with reporters asking about super tuesday. and like trump, he was almost undefeated yesterday, losing only american samoa to a virtually unknown challenger. oy phone started blowing up. >ñ baltimore resident jason palmer was able to pick up three delegates despite never having been to american samoa. and while biden's wins elsewhere were decisive, he did have to contend with a high number of voters who chose uncommitted. yesterday democrats, protesting his support for israel. while haley is concerned we do not expect an endorsement for former president trump at this point, haley is also said to not rule it out soe surrounding that. back to you guys. >> certainly, doug, as you and i talked about earlier some bad be undecided people out there and nikki haley supporters alongúthe

line. so how does her departure perhaps affect this race going forward, and how can they maybe get those votes? the two candidates remaining? >> well, at this point, the race for is all but over. both biden and trump have nearly the number of delegates they need to secure the nomination. once it gets to the general election, that's when it's going to be a question of both of them kind of centering up and going after some of those moderates that nikki haley was able to get on board. >> all right. it'll be interesting to follow this. doug luzader live in washington, dc. thank you for that update. >> all barbara lee, remains. she says she's going to remain in the race despite. right. coming in fourth place. >> barbara lee is leaving her seat in congress to run for the spus senate. she said her race s a progressive movement. she'll be watching the vote results in the coming days. the congresswoman from the east bay thanked volunteers and voters for supporting her at her campaign headquarters in

oakland. despite the uphill battle she's facing against challengers who had more money. >> when you look at 20 some million dollars by my opponents, it's like, come on, what do you think that is? i mean, i don't take corporate pac money. you can see the disparity in the money. i mean, come money doesno to a black progressive woman. but we have people and we have low donors. we have recurring donors. >> ktvu asked barbara lee about her future plans, regardless of the vote results. she decided not to answer. barbara lee headed back to washington, dc shortly after the polls closed, and she did not go to the watch party in oakland. there are many other local propositions and races that we have information for you on. you can find that@ktvu.com, along with the fox local app. >> we're following some breaking news this morning out of hayward where there is a large police presence. ktvu o'carroll now on the scene. bailey, what can you tell us?

>> good morning pam. yeah, we did just get to this scene probably about five or so minutes ago, and i can tell you that they did just put up this crime. crime scene tape behind me. this is newn this was not here when we pulled up. otherwise we would not have been able to park our car where we did. take a look. big portion. i'm going to guess as to why they closed down this area is because of, of course, a fire hydrant was hit here and it is spraying water. that's actually why i have my umbrella up. it's not raining out here, rather the fire hydrant. it's a little windy and it's actually kicking up quite a bit of water in our direction. you can see the streetsúflooded out here as a couple of firefighters standing in that deep water at this point, working to get that fire hydrant turned off. looks like they were unable to do that. and so it looks relatively clear now. but as i mentioned, they did just put up this crime& scene tape. and across the street from where we're

standing, on the same side of the street as that fire hydrantv you can see there. looks like it was in a pretty bad, bad car accident. there is no other car here on the scene, so we don't know if it was a single car crashúif another car was involved in it. but it looks pretty bad. you can see the windshield there badly damaged. it appears i'm staring into the or looking into the driver's side window. it looks like as ww though, as i mentioned, mostly firefighters here on the scene spworking to get some of this flooding under control. they did just close off this road. it's a business park, so not super heavy traffic, but of course, as the morning picks up, you could assume that there'll be more workers, employees looking to come to work here. so there was already a really small backup of maybe 5 or 6 cars looking to get through the street that theyúare going to have to take an alternate route here, but not affecting too many cars, too

much traffic at this point. but now firefighters again working to get some of this flooding under control. and on top of that, hoping to get this fire hydrant shut off here soon. we will of course remain on scene here. work to learn more information and bring you that as soon as we get it. reporting live in hayward. i'm bailey o'carroll, ktvu, fox two news. all right. >> bailey, thank you. i know you've got to go. let's check in with sal. sal, exactly where is& she? in hayward. and is traffic affected in that area? winton avenue near cabot,t definitely. there's a scenet& there as well connected to this crime scene. so there are two crime scenes. you saw bailey there standing in the street where you can't go right now. our aa traffic cameras are going to show us the regular commute is affected by rain all over the place. you can see traffic is backed up at the bay bridge toll plaza via this aa traffic camera . we still have a crash clearing east 80 at pinole valley road. this crash was blocking all lanes. they're making some progress here, but i do want to

mention that you should give yourself plenty of extra time there. you can see that traffic is going to be okay on 280, but the rain really has slowed things down. san jose commute is going to be slow, slower because of the wet weather. speaking of wet weather and the weather inlk in to talk about that. >> all right sal, this i'm going right out full blown raini mean, it is just lifting northward and our good friend the nam nam forecast model just slapped 0.48 on sfo today from bradley. nothing to a half inch. so you can see it's lifting northward now up towards marin county, over towards berkeley along 80 over to san pablo bay. so and the heavier amounts have been to the but picking san francisco along the coast, san mateo coast. but really it's about san jose cruz mountains in towards santa cruz proper. i mean, i mean, just look at the moisture stream coming up. so, i'll buy into

some of this forecast models are having a difficult time with this, no doubt about it. i think there'll be more than this is being forecast for some,úmaybe a little less for others. but the low will be with us today as it slides south. rain will go from, you know, we'll start to move south as well. 50s on the 10th. but look for off and on rain. now some areas may not get much at all, but others could easily get a quarter to a half inch. so look for decreasing by this afternoon. we'll get a break on thursday and friday. more clouds and rain returns probably monday into tuesday. for today though, rain goes south to north. maybe a little bit of a break later today, but the heaviest amounts will be on san jose santa cruz. >> all right steve, thank you. time 642 taylor swift, the superstar becoming a key part of a college course in the north bay. we tell youúhow a professor at santa rosa junior college is teaching friendship with a swifty twist. >> it's going to be a popular class. all right, let's check in with garcia. very busy day here on mornings on two. very. and of

course, we will start withc politics here as former president donald trump marking a big win on super tuesday and looking for support for what appears to be a repeat of the 2020 presidential election. >> why he is turning to the ceo of tesla, spacex and x. that's at seven then. it's not often we report on bosses raising workers pay on their own. why? one california panera franchise owner is doing just thatn and the political pressure that's likely behind the move.

on their primary election ballots, including a measure requiring anyone getting public assistance to undergo regular drug tests. ktvu allie rasmus is in san francisco right now with the vote results and the reaction to it. good morning >> good morning dave. well, there were a total of seven measures on the ballot for san spfrancisco voters to consider yesterday, and they approved all but one of them, the one measure that did not pass was measure b, which would have tied police staffing levels to tax increases. but one of the more controversial and consequential measures that did pass was

measure f. let's take a look at the vote totals for that. more than 60% of san francisco voters approved it. it requires people on public assistance in san francisco to go through drug screening tests and get substance abuse treatment. now, supporters of the measure say it's a sign that voters want stricter enforcement of drug problems and drug use, but opponents of this measure make e problem worse. >> the unintended consequences are that it will increase homelessness. they will miss an appointment or, you know, not end up at the right treatment placeúor anything could happen that would allow them to just lose their benefits. and with that, they would no longer be able to pay their rent. >> folks will still have protection for their housing for 30 days and potentially longer. if the hsa, the city's department, decides. and really what this is about is, you know, we've already tried the carrot approach in san francisco. it's time to use a little bit more of

the stick to nudge people into treatment. >> now, along with measure f, one of the other measures that mayor london breed supported and put on the ballot was measure e, it also passed with 60% of the vote. it authorizes the city to install public surveillance cameras and give police more flexible to use drones, facial recognition technology and chase people suspected of committing violent crimes and felonies. other measures that passed included measure c, which would eliminate the real estate transfer tax temporarily for building owners that convert commercial property into housing, live in san francisco. allie rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> allie. thank you. also in san francisco, measure a would issue $300 million in bonds to pay for building affordable housing. the measure needs at least two thirds of a yes vote in order to pass. >> measure c gives a one time tax exemption for building owners who are converting from commercial to residential use.

68% voting yes ahead of the no vote. and measure d expands a list of gifts that city employees can't receive. moving on to, the next, algebra in classes, measure g, that would urge san francisco unified school district to offer algebra to eighth grade students again, that measure not legally binding, but would only encourage the school district to offer algebra in eighth grade if it passes 84% voting yes. all right. bam! >> there are many other local propositions and races that we have information to share with you on. you can find that on ktvu.com, along with the fox local app. >> students going to college in the fall are anxiously awaiting the results of their financial aid application. now, the free application for federal student aid, known as fafsa, usually opens in october, but last up ul
