security vehicles, and they were bringing stuff out right away, right after they went in and detained those three people. they brought out their drones. they put kind of everything back in the vehicles. and then actually a whole nother convoy of about 40 to 50 bearcats and undercover vehicles came in about 3:00 today. i don't know if it was a shift change or whatever, but they're still just kind of here staking it out, i guess getting any kind of evidence they can to figure out exactly what's going on. >> all right. hailey winslow in southern california tonight. hailey. thank you. and our coverage of this story continues at the top of the hour with west coast rap with alex savage right here on ktvu. that is followed by ktvu fox two news at 730 with heather holmes. >> earth has just experienced what's called a severe level geomagnetic solar storm, the second highest level of noaa's rating system. ktvu tom vacar explains how it could cause some disruptions to communication systems as solar storms are important as this, and next year will be the peak of activity of the 11 year solar cycle.

satellite imagery or satellite, video communications for many people, the wi-fi that they use in their homes, again, depending on satellites, as the solar shockwave heats the atmosphere, as happened with skylab, atmospheric expansion can and does drag low earth orbiting satellites out of orbit. >> spacex had this issue occur when they sent up a whole batch of starlink satellites and solar activity actually knocked out one whole bunch of them. >> everything from certain undersea cables to air to ground and ship to shore communications, as well as military detection and early warning systems, can be degraded , and even migrating birds and bees that rely on the earth's magnetic fields to navigate can be affected. >> certain species do make use of earth's magnetic fields. >> so far, we've had no really bad effects, but we still have two years to go. tom vacar, ktvu, fox two news. >> all righty. checking in on the weather is a pretty okay day. it's not like what we were

may have to do some cleaning up on that late tonight or early tomorrow morning. so if you have travel plans that way, as you look at the winds you see 23 mile an hour gusts in novato and then sfo gusting to 26. so those numbers are down just a tad from where they were just a couple hours ago. but you get the idea. we got to okay pattern today. well it's nice tomorrow looks good. and then as we get into wednesday night things afternoon things flip around and we go back to kind of a little bit of a wet weather pattern. not a big one, but a little bit of one and stay unsettled into the weekend. i'll have the specifics on that right after the breaks. >> all right, bill, thank you. still to come, the man credited with the rapid rise and downfall of wework attempts to take back control of the company. also ahead, a big shakeup at the top of boeing as that company tries to navigate some headwinds. plus out here in livermore valley with my kids and strollers and i saw this vineyard for sale, i was like, wow, this is right in our backyard. female winemakers making inroads in their industry, how ey are su orting one

couldn't fly. they wouldn't let us fly. so. >> because you're pregnant? >> yes. pregnant pilots could not fly. >> so she flew in another direction out here in livermore valley with my kids and strollers. >> and i saw this vineyard for sale. i was like, wow, this is right in our backyard. i mean, we're in the bay area. we could commute to our day jobs. we could buy this vineyard. we could build a house, we could raise our kids. and so that's what we did. >> but aren't women the best at multitasking? roberta gonzalez, ktvu, fox two news. >> and we had a pretty nice day out there today. not like last week when it was warm and hitting spring and temperatures in the 70s mid 70s. this week it's in the mid 60s and that's how it goes again tomorrow. here's the long range model which will mimic the five day forecast. here we are into tuesday. nice day like today wednesday the clouds start to increase and then by wednesday afternoon and evening see that right there. so that kind of

tweaks through. that's a chance of showers on the afternoon commute. and then again perhaps on the thursday morning commute. and then you get thursday kind of kind of a wet day. cloudy in the afternoon. and then this area here friday and then into saturday. so that's how it looks right now. sunday looks like the nicest day on the weekend. that's going to change for sure. but the idea that that some iteration of that pattern is going to show up wednesday, thursday is going to happen. the next part of that, the friday, saturday, i'm not so sure about the timing on those in the, you know, how much rain we would get. here are the highs from today. highs tomorrow will be about the same. here we are outside where it's windy, windy, gusty, windy like 15 to 25 at oakland, downtown and sfo was gusting to 30. we had parts of out in the east bay out by alviso out there gusting to 30. the camera is bouncing around

pretty good here on this camera. i think that's our emeryville camera. so that's a yeah that things moving around pretty pretty good. so gusting to 16 in novato they died down a little bit. it's not quite as windy as it was earlier 26 miles an hour at sfo and then 15 miles an hour sustained at livermore. so this is the system that i was depicting in that model. and it's going to drop down and then it's going to drop down even further as we go into the weekend. and how far, how far east that low goes on friday, saturday will determine how we do in terms of rainfall. the saturday may not be a half bad day, but it just depends. so let's get closer to that. but in the meantime, wednesday night into thursday is your sweet spot for some showers tomorrow morning, tomorrow afternoon, wednesday morning. here comes the wednesday afternoon evening and then thursday morning. kind of clearing out. and then the forecast highs. for tomorrow. so

is that a lot of rain. no. will it be snow in the mountains. yes. there will be snow in the mountains. they'll see a good six inches i would think, from this steel. wednesday, thursday. and we'll see what happens after that. i'll see you back here tonight at ten. >> all right bill, thank you. shohei ohtani speaks publicly for the first time since the controversy surrounding his interpreter, allegations of gambling and theft of millions of dollars. jason

assistant for nine seasons at saint mary's. he's got a pretty good winning percentage as well. dodgers superstar shohei ohtani he held a news conference today to address the bizarre and potentially career altering situation he finds himself in, involving his interpreter and gambling debts. ohtani. he denied he had any knowledge of what was going on between his interpreter, ippei mizuhara, and a bookkeeping operation in southern california. ohtani said. nor did he know about the $4.5 million of wire transfers from his account that mizuhara allegedly made to cover his gambling debts. in fact, ohtani says he just learned about all this just days ago, and that's when mizuhara was fired. >> so i never bet on baseball or any other sports, or never have asked somebody to do it on my behalf. and i have never went through a bookmaker. in conclusion, ip has been stealing

money from my account and has told lies. >> all right. professional golfer peter malnati. he won his first pga event back in 2015. he then went more than 3000 days before winning his next one, which came just yesterday. it was a victory some nine years in the making, the 36 year old malnati, a 325 to 1 long shot, taps in for par on 18, a two stroke win at the valspar championship earned him a million and a half dollars. that's more than he's made in any full season on the tour, as his son sprints out in a cape to give his superhero dad a bear hug. afterwards, malnati, he got emotional when talking about his journey. >> you wonder if you're ever going to do it again, you know, because it's hard. and you know, in the nine years since my last win, it's gotten a lot harder to like. my wife has been an absolute rock through all of it. she's amazing. and you know, got

my mom here. my family's amazing little two little boys. like, it's just. this just feels so good. >> yeah. good for malnati. okay, we're going to leave you with this. athletes who care. this was just on saturday. check this out. it was pouring rain at red bull arena in newark, new jersey. yeah. so during warmups, pre-game warm ups, the red bull players, they offered up their jackets to the kids standing in the introduction line in front of them. and, you know, maybe it was karma, but the red bulls did go on to beat inter miami four nil. there you go. >> wow. nice. nice to see. >> pretty sweet. >> yeah. all right jason thank you. thanks for watching west coast rap alex savage coming up next to stream the latest news and weather on your sm t tv ananytime.
