and liftoff. >> there we go. two out of three isn't all that bad, right? spacex was hoping to pull off three launches last night alone, but they could only get two off the ground. both falcon nine rockets blasted off out of the kennedy space center. one carried a foreign satellite. the other carried a batch of starlink satellites. the third launch in california had to be canceled due to bad weather. to date, spacex has over 5000 starlink satellites currently operating above earth, but the company isn't done quite yet. they've applied to launch another 30,000 satellites in the future. >> well, an east bay woman is following in her father's

footsteps as she chases a dream. michelle henry grew up going to the track, watching her father drag race, and now she's fulfilling her own dream of getting behind that wheel. there is something about that sound that deep, all encompassing roar of this 1968 pontiac firebird that, for michelle henry, does something nothing else can do. >> it's one of those ones where sometimes i get nervous and i feel like i want to puke and i want to cry high. but as soon as that car starts up, everything goes away and i feel at peace. >> henry is a drag racer, and for her, there is nothing like those few seconds on the track. at speeds so high you need a parachute to slow you down, she says. as the first african american woman drag racer from the bay area, she knows that every time she hits the track, she's breaking barriers. >> when i was at famoso raceway last year at the hot rod reunion, i did my run, popped my

parachutes and got out the car, and there's a few people at the end and they were clapping for me. and when i took off my helmet, they was like, oh, that's a woman driving. and i was like, hi. and i was like, yes, me driving. >> and i think every time you do that, you break a stereotype of what people believe. >> yes, breaking that stereotype is, is amazing for me, because there's not a lot of black women that's in the industry, and we always have the stereotype of we can't do or we shouldn't do, and i'm just here to break the barriers because i want to change the narrative not only for myself, but the generation before me and the generation to come. >> this is in her blood, and it is something that's been passed down to her from her parents. >> my dad is one amazing driver, you know, on and off the track. and then my mom, oh, my god, she

is the goat of our team. she holds it down. >> henry's parents grew up in san francisco and were high school sweethearts. drag racing has always been a part of their story. >> when i met him, he had a 74 nova and, he was racing on the back streets. candlestick >> this was illegal street racing back in the day. yeah this is what not to do. >> but after they got married and started a family, denitra says their future meant michael could stay behind the wheel. but he had to get off the streets after a few incidents on the streets. >> my wife was like, you're not going to lose our house to street racing, so figure something else out. all right, so i started going to sonoma raceway wednesday night. drags a lot of us started going, so we really took the street scene off the streets. >> that's the scene michelle grew up watching. but for her mother, it was one thing to watch her husband race. it was an entirely different thing to let her child race.

>> i've always wanted to drive my mom, she told me no, and i understand why. you know, being a mother myself, that's a little scary, but, you know, she she came to a point where she just said, you know, you only have one life and just live it and do what you want to do. and i said, okay. so i seized my moment that moment came just last year after denitra battled breast cancer. >> and after that i told my daughter that, you know, life is too short. if that's something you want to do, then we're going to just go for it. you can do it. i'm not against it anymore. >> sounds like she needed her mom's blessing, though. >> yes. >> oh, i needed her mom's blessing. like i would have let her drive years ago, but i wasn't going to get in between that conversation. now. >> it seems that conversation is nothing short of a well-oiled machine. every one working together to get her across that finish line. she has her own style, her own message. so pack your legs and throw your keys up

. and her parents say watching her chase this dream is like nothing else. >> every time he used to call us to get this nervous feeling all the time. and with her, i don't get it at all. it's strange, you know. i'm the one who i did. both of them, strapping them in, getting them all ready. but with her, i don't get that feeling at all. >> i get more excited watching her drive than i ever felt, being behind the wheel. you got to figure this thing makes 100 horsepower naturally aspirated. no power adders. when i turn on the nitrous bottles in the car, she'll make around 1800 horsepower. so to say she can't handle it now, this girl's got it. she's good. she's better than i was. >> and so she takes the mantle for this next generation, breaking barriers with the support of her mother, walking in the steps of her father and creating a path that is all her own. who's the better driver for, >> i won't say i mean my dad. he says that he believes i'm the

better driver so far. >> and do you agree, yeah. >> that works out well. >> such a great family. now, michelle henry has a nine year old daughter, but she says right now her daughter has no interest in getting on the track. instead, she's passionate about barrel racing. so her mom says that her daughter has the real horsepower for. henry's. next race is may 27th at sonoma raceway. how cool. very cool story she was. >> she was very politically correct at the end. there who's the better racer? >> oh, it's between. >> her dad had already said it's her. well, you know, don't want to diss dad. >> what an amazing story. and well, tell claudia as usual. good morning all of you. happy easter for those that are celebrating and getting out. maybe for an easter egg hunt. mainly dry conditions expected for your bay area sunday. a beautiful view there. in fact, a little bit of a glorious view. we'll call it. some of the rainfall amounts from just the last couple of days. santa rosa

community, but in reality, not everybody has the same privileges and can afford a prom dress. so this has been like a really cool experience for me. >> the a's are getting a new contract offer to stay at the coliseum ahead of their anticipated move to las vegas. espn is reporting that the city is going to make the team and offer this week to extend their lease at the coliseum. that's for five years with an opt out after three years now, the deal would also require the team to pay a $97 million extension fee and would ask the team to take over the cost of switching that playing field from baseball to a soccer field for the oakland roots. the a's current lease at the coliseum will end after this season. both sides are expected to meet on tuesday. >> happening today, it is the cesar chavez day of service in oakland. the event is being held at the defremery park and starts at 9:00 this morning. participants will take part in various projects, all aimed at

beautifying and uplifting the neighborhoods of oakland and sacramento. hundreds of people gathered for the 22nd annual cesar chavez march yesterday. every year, the group honors the work that chavez did for the farm working community group also talks about the issues today. this year, organizers of the march called for a ceasefire in gaza. they say they want to educate the younger generation to empower their communities, says i want young people to know about our chicano history and learn about cesar chavez and dolores huerta, or learn about the labor movement and the leaders that we have in our community. >> be proud and remember who we are, where we come from. >> cesar chavez was born on march the 31st. he was an advocate for the migrant laborers and is known as an american labor rights hero. jolene. jolene jolene. >> jolene. >> i know people in the newsroom that are excited about this. beyonce's new album is a big hit

on streaming services. cowboy carter released on friday, but is already spotify's most streamed album of 2024. cowboy carter also has the biggest debut to date, earning more than first day streams on amazon music. >> well, their messages were in place for decades outside of oracle park, and then the team announced that tradition would come to an end. however, the backlash now appears to have the team reconsidering that decision , and it was an exciting, hard fought home opener on the pitch. more on the history making day and the final heart breaking minutes for bay fc, as they played in front of a sold out crowd. and as the sun rose this morning over san francisco on this easter sunday, a citywide celebration is taking place on the city's highest peak. we're going to take you live to that 101 year old tradition coming up from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two.

>> good morning to you. let's take you right outside for a look at the golden gate bridge this morning. as we get a little mix of everything on this easter sunday. lots of people have plans today. there's easter egg hunts all around the bay area, and lots of people getting together. maybe for an easter brunch today or heading out to church, but it'll be kind of a mixed bag, i think. welcome to mornings on two. it is sunday, march 31st. >> i'm claudine wong, happy easter one and all. i'm frank mallicoat. let's talk weather out of the gate. rosemary standing by and after the rain we got what? friday into saturday? it will take today. it's not all that bad. >> yeah, we've got mainly dry weather calling for just a slight chance for a few sprinkles, maybe a little bit of drizzle, afternoon pop up shower , giving you a live look here over the bay where we see a little sliver of sunshine amongst all that cloud cover there for the afternoon. i think we'll be partly cloudy, but we can't rule out the possibility

of a few scattered showers. in fact, take a look at storm tracker two, where we've got some green on the screen over the east bay. a little bit of drizzle inside the bay as well as along the coastline there heading into the sierra, it is winding down, but still an advisory for travel until 11:00 this morning for the west slope, as well as the greater lake tahoe area, and for us here at home, do expect the scattered showers and the cool temperatures for today for your lunch hour, mid to upper 50s expected and then into the afternoon low 60s for most of us with a slim chance at just a few scattered showers. a better look at what we can expect for today as well as the week ahead. coming up. >> okay, thank you rosemary. well happening now. an annual easter sunrise service is now underway at the summit of mount davidson in san francisco. now, this is a tradition that is more than 100 years old. and ktvu james torres has been up atop mount davidson this morning and joins us now with more on what's happening at this hour. good morning to you, james.

>> claudine. good morning. well, it started the same way it always does. there's a sunrise right over the east bay hills, where you can see the entire skyline of san francisco. pretty much the rest of the city as well. and the bay. that ceremony then just ended just a few minutes ago, just short of an hour long. you see some of the cleanup that's going on right now, and all of it centered, surrounding and in front of this nearly 100 foot cross. a memorable moment and a memorable piece of what this important celebration is to so many people who say they come here every year nowadays, the early morning eastern service, it brings out probably about 100 people. that's about as many as we saw this morning. but in its long history, there were moments where thousands made the hike and worship together, most notably during world war two, where it was estimated about 50,000 people attended one single easter service. the summit of mount davidson, that's situated at about an elevation of 938ft, the large cross has

been illuminated since last night. that only happens twice a year, and weather is practically perfect today. and for an event that lasts 100 years, that isn't always the case. i did have a chance to speak to the priest who we heard from earlier this morning. he tells us a little bit about what it means to be part of a tradition that has lasted so long. >> it's just this beautiful moment of unity and simplicity as we all gather together and celebrate easter morning together. it's a it's a powerfully peaceful and uniting experience. >> and we've heard from a number of different community local leaders, those who put on this organization or rather, are organizers putting on the prayer ceremony today. others who just want to get involved and just show their support for this kind of demonstration. we also heard from mayor london breed, who was in attendance. she spoke to a crowd of people telling her, telling them about her experiences as a child and her relationship with her faith. she

spoke with us a moment as well, telling us more of that message that she hoped to spread, this is a ceremony that just ended just a few minutes ago. here we expect to speak for some more people who tell us that they come here year after year. we're live this morning from the top of mount davidson. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> all right. thank you james. well bay fc made history last night after playing its first home game at paypal park. the team fought hard. they tied it up in extra time and then gave up this heartbreaking goal as the clock wound down on that match. final was two three. ktvu zac sos has more. >> it is what it is. >> that's okay. it's the first game they're gelling. >> was a good game though. >> i'm so excited about what bay fc is going to be for the bay. >> even a loss not able to ruin the day for fans of one of the nwsl newest teams on the block, a sellout crowd of 18,000 packing san jose's paypal park

for bay fc's inaugural home opener. >> i've been looking forward to it since before the team roster was announced. we've been waiting and waiting and waiting for women's professional soccer team. >> we're thrilled joining her at the game. daughter and budding soccer star georgia very excited i love soccer. as for the duo's favorite players crew, the goalie, that first game was astounding. >> they're all good. >> nearby, sophie, her pick hands down former stanford standout maya adams. >> she's like such a good midfielder and she makes really good decisions in there. she's a great player. >> earlier fans arriving hours ahead of game time, a line stretching around the stadium and it cat rooting for the opposing houston dash. but still excited to welcome bay fc to the league. >> we're super excited for them to come down in northern california. they've been doing really well this season, so but i also have to support my dash

back inside, sarah and hector putting their excitement level at a ten out of ten. >> super excited. oh man, it's awesome. like i have a seven year old daughter and she gets to see four women founding a women's team and no shortage of inspiration on the field. >> this game was huge. >> my seven year old, if you ask her what she wants to be when she grows up, it's now a women's soccer player. >> zac sos ktvu fox two news. >> well, this morning it looks like the san francisco giants are reconsidering a decision to not bring back thousands of tiles purchased by giants fans two decades ago. fans spend up to $225 for those tiles to honor their late family members who love giants baseball. more than almost anything. but those 6000 tiles had to be dug out in 2020 for the mission park project, with the promise that they'd be back. well, late last week, the team emailed fans to say those tiles don't actually fit into the park's new design and couldn't be salvaged. so the team said the messages would instead be shown on a digital kiosk. reaction to that decision

was swift and negative. >> it feels like they're taking something from us. we thought it was going to be there forever. and mccovey cove, you know, we knew exactly where it was and we'd visit it when we'd go to the ballpark. our children as young children, took pictures next to it, and we thought, someday, you know, our grandchildren would take pictures next to it and so on. so, you know, it's sad. >> 20 years ago, my uncle was lamenting that it felt like the sport was becoming too commercial and prioritizing business interests. and then, you know, 20 years later, a tile and his memory is now no more because of real estate development. >> well, it appears the reaction was so strong and swift that the team is now reconsidering the decision. according to the chronicle, the team's senior vp of community and community relations said the giants will now consider other options to better represent the tiles at the newly developed china basin park near mccovey cove. >> time now is 808. elected leaders are weighing in on the

oakland airport, possibly changing its name right now. the airport's official name is metropolitan oakland international airport, with port of oakland will vote at its april 11th board meeting on whether to change the name to san francisco bay oakland international airport. port of oakland's president supporting the change. but state senator scott wiener coming out in opposition. he released a statement saying, i love oakland, but oakland is oakland. it's not san francisco. oakland's airport should not be cutting and pasting. san francisco international airport into its name. please find another way to turn things around. at least two people died in a plane crash up in the sierra right outside of truckee. the single engine aircraft crashed two miles north of the truckee tahoe airport. it's happened about 630 last night. it was headed to the sierra from colorado. officials first reported one death but later updated the death toll after finding a second body near the

wreckage. first responders say they're still trying to determine if the tpm aircraft was carrying more passengers at the time and the cause of that crash still under investigation. >> another bay area freeway shooting to tell you about this one allegedly linked to a case of road rage. now, this all happened on in hayward on wednesday. it was around 3:00 in the afternoon on northbound interstate 880 near alvarado niles road. the chp says the victim called to report that his car was shot at by a man in a green toyota sedan. the victim only sustained minor injuries, and the chp says it was able to track down a suspect within 24 hours and searched that person's home. officers seized two guns and ammunition. anyone with information on this is asked to contact the hayward chp and a man in custody in the north bay after santa rosa police say they caught him trying to steal a catalytic converter from a stolen truck. police posted these images online. they say an alert patrol officer spotted two

men near a pickup truck in the parking lot of nagasawa park in santa rosa yesterday morning. the officer says one man was under the truck with a tool and was trying to cut off that catalytic converter. both men were detained. one was released after being interviewed, but 33 year old michael mcgarvey, who was allegedly under that truck, is now facing two felony charges and he is being held at the sonoma county jail. >> at&t warning its customers about a major security breach. the company says it has evidence hackers have gained access to more than 73 million current and former at&t accounts, and that leak likely included social security numbers and other private financial information. at&t says it has notified the millions of customers affected by the breach, and is currently resetting passcodes. the company also says it's hired a team of cybersecurity experts. hopefully to track down the hackers responsible. >> pope francis celebrated easter sunday mass before an

estimated 30,000 people at the vatican this morning, also marking. this was a scene a few hours ago, as the 87 year old leader of the roman catholic church managed to overcome his recent health problems, the pope celebrated that 90 minute mass before that huge crowd that had gathered at saint peter's square, pope francis called for an end to the fighting in gaza as part of his easter message, and the white house is getting ready to celebrate its annual easter egg roll. 40,000 people expected to participate in the easter egg roll, which is a tradition that dates back nearly 150 years. invited guests include military and veterans, families, caregivers and survivors, and the general public entered an online lottery to be there. a large schoolhouse has also been set up on the south lawn. as first lady jill biden continues her education theme this year as well. a former caltrain executive busted for using public funds and

property. how he turned a public building into a private apartment, and who helped him pull that off. >> and we're going to take a special look at a standout placekicker out of stanford. with the nfl draft less than a month away, could he be the next big thing in the nfl? >> coming up and off to a little bit of a damp start this morning. but i think for most of us today is going to be a partly cloudy, dry one. i'll have a look at what

numbers move you. but some can stop you in your tracks. like the tens of thousands of people who were diagnosed with certain hpv-related cancers. for most people, hpv clears on its own. but for those who don't clear the virus, it can cause certain cancers. gardasil 9 is a vaccine given to adults through age 45 that can help protect against certain diseases caused by hpv. including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, anal, and certain head and neck cancers such as throat and back of mouth cancers, and genital warts. gardasil 9 doesn't protect everyone and does not treat cancer or hpv infection. your doctor may recommend screening for certain hpv-related cancers. women still need routine cervical cancer screenings. you shouldn't get gardasil 9 if you've had an allergic

reaction to the vaccine, its ingredients, or are allergic to yeast. tell your doctor if you have a weakened immune system, are pregnant, or plan to be. the most common side effects include injection site reactions, headache, fever, nausea, dizziness, tiredness, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and sore throat. fainting can also happen. help protect what counts. talk to your doctor or pharmacist about gardasil 9. at olive garden, sauce is the soul. it's what takes you on a tour of italy. and chicken and shrimp carbonara to the next level. made from scratch every day. it's one of the ways we put more in, so you get more out. ♪ emergen-c crystals pop and fizz when you throw them back. and who doesn't love a good throwback?

by late spring. now, since january last year, a 500,000 cubic yard landslide has closed off. part of that highway. so crews have been working to repair that area. but they've also been responding to more slides on thursday, caltrans announced that the two reconnect the two parts of the road. their repairs still have to be completed at paul's slide. regent slide and dolan point. it's a lot of work, but caltrans says it's trying to complete at least some of those projects by may. >> first, we want to share a story about a stanford standout kicker, a place kickers are not usually drafted in the nfl. but late april, the cardinal kicker could very well break that trend. ktvu cristina rendon has more from down on the farm.

>> josh carty from 31 yards out for the win. >> the cardinals storm into boulder and run back to the farm and nice, nice cardi number one kicker in the country. >> he actually doesn't miss after a stellar career as a cardinal, joshua carty is looking to become the first kicker drafted from stanford since 1981, when the new england patriots drafted ken naber. >> so now it might be joshua carty, the 2024 stanford pro day, aka the carty kicking pro day. >> or like the cardi party, we'll go with that. >> a day that had several nfl scouts to see him put on a show. >> i feel like i showed, key aspects of my game was just resilience. and then also just hitting big balls, accurate balls, and then cutting through the wind a little bit to the cardi party was filled with his stanford teammates. >> but whether it's game day when josh routinely kicks a 56 yard field goal is accurate, kick is gone. he'll be kicking

on sunday next year or pro day kicking through the uprights. you can almost guarantee his mother, valerie cardi, will always be there to support her son. i will until he tells me to stop. >> i don't want to step on his toes if he wants to have a life without his mom lingering around. >> the cardi family has deep ties to stanford stadium. >> i found that i was pregnant and i asked my husband to meet me at the stadium and we were alone in the stanford football stadium when i told him i was pregnant with our son, joshua. >> the journey to the nfl probably wouldn't have happened if josh didn't do this. >> he made a 45 yarder first try and my husband went home. >> from that point on, joshua went from the unknown kicker with a soccer background to arguably the best kicker in the country. joshua is projected to be drafted from the third to the sixth round. if he had his choice, he says honestly, the 49ers yeah, 49ers they're not going to take a guy, but grew up

like in the bay area teams, and they're also like, you know, really good right now, regardless where he's drafted, there's one thing he'll miss about stanford. i think i missed the guys on my team the most, and i think the bonds that that we established are lifetime bonds. so that's kind of what i missed. the most the last couple months being away while they're all still here. but yeah, just the people are all so special. there's really, you know, i don't think any other place on earth where you got the assembly of the, the mix of people that you have here on campus at stanford. >> cristina rendon, ktvu, fox two news, a professional football team in the bay area, is kicking off its season today and looking to defend its championship. >> hey, san jose, not only do we have a professional indoor football team here in san jose, the bay area panthers, but they are national champions and they're about to kick off their season again. i had a great time going out to their games last year. we also collaborated on doing some youth training camps

up the mountain, watch over the cliff, and kind of see that beautiful sunset rise just before 7:00 this morning, rising above the east bay hills, the bay, and the city of san francisco. then they make their way over and stand in front of this enormous cross, more than 100ft tall, one of the largest, most known landmarks here in the city. now, in its long history, there have been moments where thousands of people made the hike and worship together, most notably during world war two, where it was said about 50,000 people attended a single mass. it's a nondenominational mass, which means anyone is welcome, and it brings in people from the bay area, from california, and even further out, everyone from every neighborhood, every part of the city, and beyond. >> we have people who come from out of state, to be here as well. and it's just because we all need it. >> the summit of mount davidson is situated at an elevation of about 938ft. the large cross has

been illuminated since last night, only one of two times that happens a year throughout that mass, which ended just shy of 8:00. this morning, we heard from a number of local community members that includes mayor london breed, who shared a little bit of a personal story of her relationship with her faith growing up and what easter means to her. we're live this morning from the top of mount davidson. i'm james torres, ktvu fox two news. >> all right. thank you james. well happening today. several people are expected to join the cesar chavez day of service in oakland. that event is at defremery park at nine. this morning. and participants are expected to engage in various projects aimed at beautifying and uplifting neighborhoods. now in sacramento, hundreds of people gathered yesterday for the 22nd annual cesar chavez march every year, the group honors the work that cesar chavez did for the farm worker community. the group also talks about the issues of today. this year, organizers of the march called for a ceasefire in gaza.

they say they want to educate the younger generation to empower their communities. >> i want young people to know about our chicano history and learn about cesar chavez and dolores huerta, or learn about the labor movement and the leaders that we have in our community. be proud and remember who we are, where we come from. >> cesar chavez was born on march 31st. he was an advocate for migrant laborers and is known as an american labor rights hero. >> a team of highly trained engineers have now arrived on the scene of the francis scott key bridge in maryland. those engineers have begun the very difficult task of removing all that twisted steel from the bridge that collapsed and crumbled into the river last week. the goal is to clear the wreckage and reopen the port of baltimore, which is a waterway that is vital to the entire us economy. >> we're working to get there as fast as we can. we're going to open it as soon as possible, and we're going to continue to do it safely. >> a huge cargo ship crashed into the bridge five days ago.

disaster response crews have recovered the bodies of only two of the bridge workers, but they are still searching for the bodies of four others. >> meanwhile, an investigation is underway in arkansas after a barge struck a bridge there this weekend. the image shows the barge collision at the arkansas river south of sallisaw. officials shut down that bridge until engineers declared it safe for traffic. it's still not clear what caused that barge to hit the bridge. nobody was injured, president biden's reelection campaign raising a lot of cash. >> the very latest fundraising numbers, out from february, show a sizable advantage for president biden. $53 million to donald trump's 20 million. just last thursday, biden brought in more than $26 million during a fundraiser that included appearances by celebrities and former democratic presidents barack obama and bill clinton. >> takes resources to run a campaign and set up this infrastructure. and you need time. and donald trump does not have either. he is running out

of time. he's not consolidating his base. he is strapped for cash. the rnc is in shambles. juxtaposition to us. we are pulling off fundraisers like this. >> the trump campaign says it will hold a fundraiser of its own on april the 6th in palm springs, florida, gop donors hope to raise more than $33 million there. >> a former caltrain executive is now accused of turning some areas of public train stations into private homes. the san mateo county district attorney's office has charged joseph navarro with felony theft of public funds. prosecutors say he had the help of a former employee of caltrain when he secretly built apartments at two train stations on the peninsula. they say navarro's apartment was remodeled office space in the agency's historic burlingame train station, and prosecutors say his alleged accomplice also had an apartment. that one at the millbrae station. >> well, spring football returned this weekend with the debut of the united football league. today, a familiar face to bay area football fans will be among the players to hit the field are.

>> jason appelbaum has an update on the former cal bear quarterback, chase garbers, ahead of today's first game between the dc defenders and the san antonio brahmas. garbers has a second and garbers may have six. >> he is gone on. >> it wasn't that long ago that chase garbers etched himself in cal lore with his 84 yard touchdown pass, the longest in big game history, while also becoming the first bears quarterback since 1922 to beat stanford twice. >> that was november of 2021. so what's garbers up to now? you know, to be a brahma and be a part of the san antonio community? >> it feels awesome. >> garbers is making more history as quarterback of the san antonio brahmas, where he will play in the inaugural season of the united football league. here we go. >> they got one shot. >> they're going to ball out. >> led by dwayne the rock johnson, the ufl is comprised of

eight teams four from the xfl and four more from the usfl. i love the game of football. >> i love playing it. obviously, that's why i'm here and i do. you know, ultimately the goal is to go back to the nfl. chase garbers, the touchdown pass to mccormick out of the backfield. >> garbers got a taste of the nfl with the raiders as an undrafted free agent, playing in six preseason games in 2022 and 23, but never saw action in a regular season game before being released in august of last year. >> hopefully everything goes well this you know this year in the ufl and you know, hopefully on a on a roster in 2024 for the nfl. >> and garbers has just the man to help get him there. wade phillips is the head coach of the brahmas and a man who spent 43 years in the nfl. nine of those as head coach for the broncos, bills and cowboys. >> it's been great. you know, having coach wade lead the team. obviously you know what he brings to the table as a coach.

and just experience in general. you know has been really spectacular. >> so what can fans tuning into a brahmas game expect to see? >> i think it's very comparable to the nfl, obviously you have a lot of guys that came from the nfl and played at a high level. they're going to see a very explosive offense come march 31st. it'll be a lot of fun. >> jason appelbaum, ktvu, fox two sports. >> happening now, a family friendly event for the easter sunday morning getting underway right now at a popular east bay park. we're going to take you there. dozens of people have gathered for the easter day bunny brunch that started just within the past hour. this is tilden park in the east bay hills in berkeley. those attending join a tasty easter brunch, along with several fun activities and also enjoying a ride. you can see it the merry go round the carousel has been there for years. a lot of kids having a lot of fun up there at tilden park this morning on this easter sunday, coming up next,

my late father-in-law lit up a room, but his vision dimmed with age. he had amd. i didn't know it then, but it can progress to ga, an advanced form of the disease. his struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warning signs of ga, like:

hazy or blurred vision, so it's hard to see fine details, colors that appear dull or washed out, or trouble with low light that makes driving at night a real challenge. if you think you have ga, don't wait. treatments are available. ask a retina specialist about fda-approved treatments for ga and go to gawontwait.com own dreams. michelle henry grew up going to the track, watching her father drag race. now she's fulfilling her own dream of

getting behind that wheel. there is something about that sound, that deep, all encompassing roar of this 1968 pontiac firebird that, for michelle henry, does something nothing else can do. >> it's one of those ones where sometimes i get nervous and i feel like i want to puke, and i want to cry. but as soon as that car starts up, everything goes away and i feel at peace. >> henry is a drag racer, and for her, there is nothing like those few seconds on the track. at speeds so high. you need a parachute to slow you down. she says as the first african american woman drag racer from the bay area, she knows that every time she hits the track, she's breaking barriers. >> when i was at famoso raceway last year at the hot rod reunion, i did my run. i, popped my parachutes and got out the car. there's a few people at the end and they were clapping for

me, and when i took off my helmet, they was like, oh, that's a woman driving. and i was like, hi. and i was like, yes, me driving. >> and i think every time you do that, you break a stereotype of what people believe. >> yes, breaking that stereotype is, is amazing for me, because there's not a lot of black women that's in the industry, and we always have the stereotype of we can't do or we shouldn't do, and i'm just here to break the barriers because i want to change the narrative not only for myself, but the generation before me and the generation to come. >> this is in her blood, and it is something that's been passed down to her from her parents. >> my dad is one amazing driver, you know, on and off the track. and then my mom, oh, my god, she is the goat of our team. she holds it down. henry's parents grew up in san francisco and were high school sweethearts.

>> drag racing has always been a part of their story. >> when i met him, he had a 74 nova and, he was racing on the back streets. candlestick >> this was illegal street racing back in the day. yeah this is what not to do. >> but after they got married and started a family, denitra says their future meant michael could stay behind the wheel. but he had to get off the streets. >> after a few incidents on the streets. my wife was like, you're not going to lose our house to street racing, so figure something else out. all right, so i started going to sonoma raceway wednesday night. drags a lot of us started going. so we really took the street scene off the streets. >> that's the scene michelle grew up watching. but for her mother, it was one thing to watch her husband race. it was an entirely different thing to let her child race. >> i've always wanted to drive my mom, she told me no, and i understand why. you know, being a mother myself, that's a little

scary, but it, you know, she she came to a point where she just said, you know, you only have one life and just live it and do what you want to do. and i said, okay. so i seized my moment. >> that moment came just last year after denitra battled breast cancer. >> and after that i told my daughter that, you know, life is too short. if that's something you want to do, then we're going to just go for it. you can do it. i'm not against it anymore. >> sounds like she needed her mom's blessing, though. >> yes. >> oh, i needed her mom's blessing. like i would have let her drive years ago, but i wasn't going to get in between that conversation. now. >> it seems that conversation is nothing short of a well-oiled machine. everyone working together to get her across that finish line. she has her own style, her own message. so pack your legs and throw your keys up. and her parents say, watching her chase this dream is like nothing else. >> every time he used to go to

get this nervous feeling all the time. and with her, i don't get it at all. it's strange, you know. i'm the one who i did. both of them, strapping them in, getting them all ready. but with her, i don't get that feeling at all. >> i get more excited watching her drive than i ever felt, being behind the wheel. you got to figure this thing makes 100 horsepower. naturally aspirated. no power adders. when i turn on the nitrous bottles in the car, she'll make around 1900 horsepower. so to say she can't handle it. now, this girl's got it. she's good. she's better than i was. >> and so she takes the mantle for this next generation, breaking barriers with the support of her mother, walking in the steps of her father and creating a path that is all her own. who's the better driver? >> i won't say. i mean my dad. he says that he believes i'm the better driver so far. >> and do you agree, yeah. that

works out well. well, michelle henry has a daughter of her own. she says right now her daughter isn't interested in getting behind the wheel. instead, she's passionate about barrel racing. so, yes. so her mom says, look, she's got the real horsepower. and a big fan of watching her daughter chase her dream as she chases hers. henry's next race is may 27th at sonoma raceway. >> it's got to be in their dna? i guess to just just compete. compete compete. the need for speed. great piece. all right, let's check in with rosemary now and, see how we're doing on this easter sunday weather wise. >> yeah. many people are thinking the need for dry weather. this is what we need here today. a few scattered showers, maybe a few sprinkles. we are in pretty good shape. nothing like what we experienced on friday. and yesterday was actually fairly nice for most. i know we had some brief downpours reported in certain areas, again, we may call for just a few sprinkles. and with that, a mostly cloudy start to the day

here over san francisco, where we have mainly calm conditions, temperatures are a little bit on the cool side. we'll check in on the very latest here in just a moment. first, let's go back. take a look at the last couple of days where san francisco has picked up almost 7/10 of an inch of rainfall. oakland, almost half an inch, morgan hill more than an inch and a half. santa rosa reporting more than an inch. felton almost to 2.5in for you there. winter storm warning for the sierra goes until 11:00 this morning, and the sierra has seen anywhere from one to about three feet of snow since the last well, in the past seven days. so since the week began, palisades reporting 38in sugar bowl reporting 37 stormtracker two. here we've got a little bit of green on the screen. as long as those clouds are hanging overhead, we have to call for the possibility of some drizzle out there. more green on the screen. you can see over areas like the san joaquin valley as the storm continues to push south. and then we'll be moving east in the next 24 hours. right now, hanging just off the coastline of southern

california. so it's a bit of a stormy day for socal for us. we continue to see this move out, and we are left with a ridge to join us for monday, tuesday that is going to bring the dry weather and the warmer weather doesn't look to last though. take a look at what the forecast is bringing us. another storm by thursday, and right now it looks like it could be a slow mover. once again, with the possibility of showers into next weekend. temperatures across the bay area right now, if you are stepping out, maybe for breakfast, brunch , easter egg hunt, mid 40s right now in the north bay of santa rosa for the inner east bay, 48 in walnut creek and san francisco, enjoying 50 for the afternoon. highs for today. upper 50s to low 60s for most of us. we'll have a few areas like antioch, concord, san jose into the mid 60s and a santa rosa expected to go to 66. then we get into some warmer weather come monday tuesday with a mix of mostly sunny, partly cloudy conditions, low 70s in the

forecast. it doesn't last though. we begin to cool it down on wednesday. wet weather, a possibility on thursday. back to you. >> i'll enjoy it while it lasts. thanks, rosemary. >> well, nature continues to blanket the sierra. we're seeing lots of new snow this spring, so we're live with coupe from kaleipus resorts to talk about that spring skiing season. >> i was just texting a moments ago and heart disease. sadly, the number one killer for firefighter powers. that's according to research next, the work of a cardiologist who is leading the fight for better heart health for firefighters. stay with us

enforcement and firefighting agencies. all across the united states. doctor elizabeth klodas says she is determined to improve the diets of these first responders due to a growing health crisis. studies show police officers and firefighters alike here in the u.s. are far more likely to suffer a heart attack than workers in our general population. >> if you look at the health data around first responders, it's really shocking. you think that, you know, firefighters, the you know, they die because of smoke inhalation or injury on the job. and that does happen. but the number one reason five firefighters die is heart disease. they drop dead of heart attacks. and you know, far ahead of their time.

>> doctor klodas says many of these heart attacks are directly linked to unhealthy diets. and she's now on a national campaign to provide america's first responders with heart healthy meals. >> well, the a's are getting a new contract offer to stay at the coliseum ahead of their anticipated move to las vegas. espn is reporting that the city is going to make the team and offer this week to extend their lease at the coliseum for five years, with an opt out after three years. the deal would also require the team to pay a $97 million extension fee and asks the team to take over the cost of switching the playing field from baseball to soccer. for the oakland roots, the a's current lease at the coliseum ends after this season. both sides are expected to meet on tuesday. >> keep that baseball theme going. the giants will wrap up their first series of the new season as they face padres again this afternoon in san diego. yesterday the giants beat up the padres 9 to 6 on prime time tv. michael conforto hit a grand

slam and the rookie jong ho lee hit his first big league home run in that big giant win. giants are two and one to start the season. after today's game in san diego, they visited the dodgers monday, tuesday, wednesday before that all important home opener on friday against san diego. about the a's. they'll try to avoid a series sweep when they host the guardians again today at the coliseum. yesterday los gatos native steve kwan homered, reached base four times in cleveland's 12 to 3 rout over the athletics. there were only 5400 fans at the coliseum yesterday. the a's are oh and three out of the gate and what is likely their final season in oakland. we shall see. >> well, hundreds hiked up mount davidson in san francisco for the annual easter sunrise service. we're live from that event with more on the turnout and why. some say it's such an important tradition for

>> claudine, good morning to you. and it, of course dates back to 1923. the hill behind me is now back to just a normal hiking hill that we'll see a number of walkers and hikers going and doing that this morning. it's no longer the stage for an easter mass, but here's how it starts. every year folks go up there very early in the morning, around 6:00 am. they'll take a look over, see that sunrise with the sun rising above the bay, the east bay hills, as well as the city of san francisco. then they walk up over to that enormous cross, more than 100ft tall, to worship together. now in its long history, there have been moments where thousands of people made the hike and worshiped together, most notably during world war two, where it was said about 50,000 people attended a single ceremony. it's a nondenominational mass, which means anyone is welcome and it brings in people from the bay area, from parts of california and even further out, everyone from every neighborhood, every part of the city and beyond.

>> we have people who come from out of state to be here as well. and it's just because we all need it. >> now, the summit of mount davidson, once you get to the top, that's situated at an elevation of about 938ft, that large cross has been illuminated since last night, and that only happens twice per year. we heard from a number of local community members during the ceremony. local pastors, local people who just get involved in their community and neighborhoods. we also heard from the mayor london breed, who stopped in and told the crowd about her history and her beliefs. with her faith and her upbringing when it comes to easter. we're live this morning from near mount davidson. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you, james pope francis celebrating easter sunday mass before an estimated 30,000 people at the vatican this morning. also, martin, this was the scene just a few hours ago

as the 87 year old leader of the roman catholic church managed to overcome some recent health problems and served today, the pope celebrated a 90 minute mass before the huge crowd that had gathered outside at saint peter's square. pope francis called for an end to the fighting in gaza as part of his easter message. >> closer to home, the white house is getting ready to celebrate the annual easter egg roll. it happens tomorrow and 40,000 people are expected to participate. it is a tradition that dates back nearly 150 years, and invited guests include military and veterans, families, caregivers and survivors. the general public did enter an online lottery for the chance to be there, and a large schoolhouse has been set up on the south lawn. as first lady jill biden continues the education theme this year. >> new this morning, a family friendly event for the easter sunday morning getting underway. right now to popular east bay park. dozens of people have gathered for the easter day

bunny brunch. it began a short time ago. this is tilden park up in the east bay hills in berkeley. those attending are enjoying a delicious easter brunch along with several fun activities, including a ride on the carousel there, the merry go round in tilden park. >> well, this morning it looks like the san francisco giants are reconsidering the decision to not bring back thousands of tiles purchased by giants fans two decades ago. now, fans spent up to $225 for those tiles to honor their late family members who love giants baseball more than almost anything. but those 6000 tiles had to be dug out in 2020 for the mission park project, with a promise that they'd be back. well, late last week, the team emailed fans to say those tiles don't actually fit in the new park's design and couldn't be salvaged. so the team said the messages would instead be shown at a digital kiosk. the reaction to that decision was swift and negative. >> it feels like they're taking something from us. we thought it was going to be there forever.

and mccovey cove, you know, we knew exactly where it was and we'd visit it when we'd go to the ballpark. our children, as young children took pictures next to it, and we thought someday, you know, our grandchildren would take pictures next to it and so on. so, you know, it's sad. >> 20 years ago, my uncle was lamenting that it felt like the sport was becoming too commercial and prioritizing business interests. and then, you know, 20 years later, a tile and his memory is now no more because of real estate development. >> well, it appears the reaction was so strong that the team is now reconsidering its decision. according to the chronicle, the team's senior vp of community and community relations says the giants will now consider other options to better represent the tiles at the newly developed china basin park near mccovey cove. >> up next, mother nature continues to blanket the sierra with new snow this late spring. we're live with a ski expert with a look ahead into spring skiing season. talking to coop coming up. stay right there and

giving you a live look here at the golden gate bridge. >> a glorious start to the day. we are calling for a few scattered showers out there. i'll have a look at the current conditions and what you can expect or t est

crashed two miles north of the truckee tahoe airport. this happened around 630 last night. the plane was on its way to the sierra from colorado. officials

first reported just one death, but later updated the death toll after finding a second body. first responders say they're still trying to determine if the tbm aircraft was carrying more passengers. cause of that crash still under investigation. >> drivers heading to the lake tahoe area on this easter sunday should be prepared for some stormy road conditions. we did just check with the caltrans website and right now chains are required on eastbound interstate 80 from placer county to the nevada state line. chains are also required on eastbound highway 50. beginning at twin bridges in el dorado county. caltrans is urging everyone check those road conditions before you leave for tahoe this morning. >> always a good idea, i know, and aren't we supposed to kind of forget about the chains and do a little spring skiing and relax? and mother nature has really been pouring it on up there. rosemary. >> yes. as we talked about earlier, you know, we started out march with a blizzard and now still going strong here at the end of march, we know we

usually have spring showers, but these are more like winter storms here with, you know, several feet reported in the last week or so. i'll have a look at that in just a moment. let's take a look at san francisco this morning. partly sunny conditions and the rainfall amounts here in just the last couple of days, anywhere from, oh, more than half inch in walnut creek to almost half inch in oakland. nearly 7/10 san francisco, morgan hill more than an inch and a half. santa rosa reporting more than an inch as claudine and frank talked about a moment ago, we have the winter storm warning that continues in the sierra until about 11:00 this morning, and some of the snowfall amounts in the past seven days over areas like palisades, sugar bowl, more than three feet to sierra at tahoe, 31in, and still a little bit more to go here. the storm tracker two. here we are watching just a few scattered showers, it looks like near fremont, stretching to the inner east bay over some of the hills there. a little bit of drizzle

on the coastline as we move in closer. check in on that. looks like 880 as a soggy one. moving over towards 680 and then over towards looks like near livermore. livermore. you may be dry, but you've got it nearby in the sierra. mostly cloudy, fairly quiet with that two warning expiring at 11:00. as we get into the next day or so, we are going to see a switch in the weather pattern. this system will continue to push east, leaving us dry. a ridge is going to build in and bring us warmer weather and dry weather, at least for a couple of days. the future cast. here you can see the ridge kind of pushing the storm track to the north. it doesn't last though. by wednesday it begins to break down and by thursday this is what is on our doorstep right now. could carry on into the weekend so scattered showers will return as well as cooler temperatures. i'll show you this coming up right now. still a bit cool for many of us. 54 in san francisco, upper 40s in walnut creek, san jose at 50, and your afternoon highs for today, upper 50s to mid 60s across the bay

area, 63 in oakland, 65 in concord. your extended forecast here. notice the bump in numbers as early as tomorrow afternoon. highs upper 60s to low 70s under partly cloudy, mostly sunny conditions. we begin to cool on wednesday. the clouds return and thursday it looks like you may need the umbrella. frank. >> all right, well, we'll look towards monday and tuesday. that looks pretty good. thank you. rosemary. well, ski fans are in their element this weekend. here is the final day of march at mother nature continues to blanket the sierra with snow. and although it's not quite the epic winter we had last year, a late surge of wintry weather in february and now march will likely keep sierra ski resorts open into may, if not longer for some. and that is welcome news for locals and skiers across the state, especially over the holiday weekend. and the man in the middle of all of it is kevin coop cooper from kelly pass resorts. he's at zephyr right now. good morning coop. happy easter.

>> happy easter frank. good to be on. it's just amazing. i can't believe how much snow we've just seen. average 27in depending on what elevation you're at. but i was listening to rosemarie's numbers upwards of three feet. all the way down towards fresno and china peak. and frank, this is the last 24 hours. so i knock this off yesterday morning. this is the last 24 hours. wow that's lake level. that's that is some good snow. yeah, yeah. and it's cold smoke. i was going to say is it, is it powdery or is it kind of wet cement. >> no this is really good snow. >> so this is your 10 to 1 right here. so if you're up on the mountain today you're going to be skiing and some unbelievable conditions. and i loved hearing rosemarie talk about just this coming next week the fourth through the sixth, possibly another 6 to 12in. >> can you remember a late surge of snow like this, especially in the month of march in recent history? >> well, last year we saw snow all the way through june, but go

back just like 4 or 5 years ago. we saw some really good march accumulation. now what happens in april might be a different story, but this is just great for the water tables and the ski resorts to get that last surge. people coming out of the bay, you know, out of out of sacramento valley to come on up and enjoy it. so we've got great conditions right now. mid-winter shape resorts are at 100% opened up. if you're going to come up and ski and ride, the next several days are going to be fantastic. and if you're out today, happy easter. you got a powder day. yeah you sure do. >> got to love that. april 1st is tomorrow, coop. how long do you think resorts will stay open this year if this continues? >> yeah, some are pushing already to the 28th. they're saying they're going to go all the way through april through the 28th. the other resorts looking at palisades, they're looking at that model of maybe pushing a little bit longer. we'll wait for about a week to see what they see. with throughput, skiers and riders, mammoth will always push a little bit longer. they just have that base out of the southern california area to do

it. but we'll wait, watch and see. i'd like to see us go to may 15th, but, you know, it just depends on how much snow we get, this next system coming in, and it's a flood that'll keep that energy going because people are still trying to make up for december and january. they want to get every day on those passes and make sure that they enjoy it. and it is really good. right now. this isn't spring's gang. this is full on cold smoke. pow! >> that's awesome. yeah. you got to wear out that pass if you bought an epic or a or an icon pass for sure. how about road conditions? i know 80 and 50. you still need chains to get up. how are the roads around the lake getting to and from the resorts? >> yes, they're slick right now. we've had a little bit of flux and temperature. so you have a lot of black ice around 28. going around towards the east shore is definitely slick. if you go 89 and you want to go through emerald bay, that is closed at this time. state route 88 challenging conditions coming over the spur that's coming out of jackson towards kirkwood. chain controls in effect on all highways 88 for 108, 50 and 80. so slow your roll. have that

winter kit with you. it's still full winter conditions and this isn't done. we're looking at that radar that rosemary was showing. there's still some isolated pockets. we could see 4 or 5in today. it's a little bit broken behind me right now, but that might settle back in. we might see another, you know, three, 4 or 5in which would slow those roads down. give caltrans a break, give them lots of room. you see chp give those gentlemen room as well. >> yeah. and i always ask you about the vibe, but are are the locals ready for sunshine or is this. bring it on, bring it on. >> we're all about bring it on right now. i was up on luther. pass the other day, and these two young ladies came skiing out , and they were. they just. i could hear him as i was touring around luther pass with the dogs, and i could hear him hooting and hollering and as i was talking to him, they were just so excited about what they just skied and how much more backcountry adventure they can get and inbounds at any of the resorts here in the region. well, it looks great up there. >> we always appreciate your time. have a happy easter with

your family and the dogs up there, coop, and we will see you again real soon. >> yeah. take care guys. we'll see you out on the mountain. all right coop, you're the best. >> coming up, what was thought to be an april fool's joke. 20 years ago transformed the way we do things today. look back at the way google transformed email. with gmail coming up

numbers move you. but some can stop you in your tracks. like the tens of thousands of people who were diagnosed with certain hpv-related cancers. for most people, hpv clears on its own. but for those who don't clear the virus, it can cause certain cancers. gardasil 9 is a vaccine given to adults through age 45 that can help protect against certain diseases caused by hpv. including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, anal, and certain head and neck cancers such as throat and back of mouth cancers, and genital warts. gardasil 9 doesn't protect everyone and does not treat cancer or hpv infection. your doctor may recommend screening for certain hpv-related cancers. women still need routine cervical cancer screenings. you shouldn't get gardasil 9 if you've had an allergic reaction to the vaccine, its ingredients, or are allergic to yeast. tell your doctor if you have a weakened immune system, are pregnant, or plan to be. the most common side effects include injection site reactions, headache, fever, nausea, dizziness, tiredness, diarrhea,

abdominal pain, and sore throat. fainting can also happen. help protect what counts. talk to your doctor or pharmacist about gardasil 9. bounced from one doctor talk to your doctor to the next. did they even send my lab work...? wait, was i supposed to bring that? then there's the forms. the bills. the 'not a bills.' the.... ”press 4 to repeat these options.” [chaotic music] [inspirational music] healthcare can get a whole lot easier when your medical records, care and coverage are in one place. at kaiser permanente, all of us work together for all that is you. crash. the 27 year old actor recently rose to fame as the

star of the chilling adventures of sabrina and genevieve. those are both popular streaming tv series. a representative of the actor revealed his death but did not provide any details about that motorcycle crash, including where and when it happened and at san mateo, a person behind the wheel of a tesla looked to be sound asleep yesterday while speeding down highway 101. >> the driver was seen by a high school lacrosse team and they filmed it, the team's coach telling ktvu we were truly stunned at what we were witnessing. i don't care how reliable tesla may claim their autopilot is, but as you can see , it appears that the man is sound asleep. well the city of sunnyvale is applying for grants in the hopes of starting a pilot program that would create a cost effective rideshare option that may be more convenient than public transit. >> the city council unanimously voted tuesday to partner with silicon valley hopper. that's a rideshare service that actually costs less than $5 a ride in

cities like cupertino and santa clara. the city is seeking money for that pilot program from two grants. one is from the environmental protection agency, and that would cover the program's full cost. but the other is a state grant that would cover half the cost and the city would have to pay the balance. sunnyvale officials are hoping those grants will help fund this pilot program that could allow students, disadvantaged residents and senior citizens more mobility. caltrans wants to fully reopen the scenic highway one by late spring. since january of last year, a 500,000 cubic yard landslide closed off part of that highway. crews have been trying to repair that area, but they've also been responding to other slides as well. on thursday, caltrans announced that the creek connect. in order to reconnect parts of that road, repairs have to be completed at paul's side reads and slide and dolan point. caltrans says it is trying to complete some of those projects by may 1st. >> 923 your time. google's

popular email service will celebrate its 20th birthday. tomorrow was on april the 1st, in 2004, when google first announced it was launching gmail at the time, many people thought it was an april fool's day joke. since the company's co-founders were known for pulling pranks. but gmail is now the undisputed king of email, with an estimated 1.2 billion users all around the globe. >> prom season is underway this year, but one high school says a new project meant to help students look their best is already preparing for next year's prom season. now, this project started last year in the north bay, trying to cut down on waste and increase equity. and while this year's giveaway just wrapped up, donations are being taken for prom next year because the hope is that this event will get even bigger, ktvu alice wirtz has a look on how this free prom boutique came together in the north bay at the village in corte madera, a destination boutique is sparking joy for students planning their biggest fashionable and fun night in

high school prom. >> we have so many different types of dresses and styles, and then we also have some more shiny ones if that is your style. several racks of beautiful, many new dresses, all of them donated and offered for free for those attending prom, the amount of options, there's so many and it's really cool that they're all for free because prom dresses are very expensive. charlotte lacey and her colleague olivia villanova are going big with their leadership club project this year at redwood high school in larkspur. >> these dresses, they're brand new with tags, and there's something really special about being able to walk away with a shopping bag with a dress that is brand new and hasn't been worn before. >> shoppers are grateful with so many options, parents are thrilled as well. >> blown away. i didn't believe her when she told me she comes in. >> she's like, are you sure it's all free? i'm like, yes mom, it's free. she's like, free. are you sure? >> it's a gift that builds self-confidence without a price tag? >> our whole project here is to break down that stigma. so this is for everybody? no matter if you can afford it or not.

everybody should be able to access prom, no matter where you might come from. >> it's mostly dresses, but there are some items for gentlemen. >> that one's my favorite. >> it's been a humbling experience for charlotte and her leadership team. >> this has been an eye opening experience for me because we live in marin and we're often known as being a very wealthy community, but in reality, not everybody has the same privileges and can afford a prom dress. so this has been like a really cool experience. >> that was alice wertz reporting and coming up, our special program, voices for change, returns with a new episode in just a few minutes. starting at 930. we will continue our celebration of women's history month with conversations focused on uplifting girls and women. that includes the nonprofit behind a new film series that tells the true stories of young women around the world. the project hopes to inspire the next generation towards gender equality. also a special discussion with jess smith, the president of golden state's new wnba team, to be able to build in women's sports today around

gender equity, being at the forefront of that and marry that with fandom and fun and everything else is really powerful. and voices for change is back in just a few minutes right here on ktvu and rosemary is here to talk about our weather on this easter sunday. >> and actually yesterday it looked a little wet. today, not all that bad. >> yeah. we we're going to have partly cloudy skies a little bit. cool. make sure you have, you know at least the layers for your little ones getting outdoors a slight chance at a few sprinkles out there for today followed by a dry warm up monday tuesday a bit of transition on wednesday and thursday. notice the temperatures they go from 72 on tuesday, back to 60 on thursday and showers in the forecast. >> not done yet. >> not done, not done. >> i'll enjoy those 70s though i will too. yeah, looking forward to that. all right. a quick reminder to you. you can stream ktvu news on your smart tv. you
