chopper. they say a rescue at night like this is especially challenging and cody's position on the side of that steep cliff made it even more difficult. they tell me that his hands, his fingers were clinging to the rocks and his toes were also clinging there as the waves below crashed against the shore and the wind hit them, threatening his safety. they also say that it could have knocked him over some of that wind. now, once martelli got hold of him, they brought him to the top of the cliff where firefighters rendered aid. >> the first couple of times larry touched the cliff, he lost his footing and the rocks crumbled away. so he had to kind of kind of reposition him a little bit. >> the priority is to get him out of that situation because if we don't get him moved, you know, even if he is injured, if we don't move him, there's a likelihood that he can die there. now, they only had to move him about 80ft. >> but they also tell me that he had no scrapes or scratches. they say this is because of teamwork, that this was this was a positive outcome. and

obviously sometimes they get called for rescues and recoveries of bodies. and this is one of those positive situations where. no one was hurt. now, we hoped we could have spoken with cody today, but he was out of state. he was visiting this location and he was on a flight home today. but the rescue team told me they did speak to him this morning and he sincerely thanked them for their work. we'll have more from this dramatic rescue during our 730 newscast tonight. crystal bailey, ktvu, fox two news. >> and it's quite a story and quite some video there. crystal thank you. two people are in custody tonight in connection with a shooting at a safeway parking lot. it happened late monday afternoon in american canyon. we now know the incident started after a fight which escalated into gunfire. three people were taken to the hospital. police identified one of the suspects who was arrested as 18 year-old christian evans. the second suspect is a minor. both have been charged with attempted murder and are being held without bail. >> police in san jose have arrested four suspected burglars accused of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property from storage units.

in california all relies on that. >> now, before you head out to the plant nursery or landscaper, consider that climate change is highly likely to affect this, meaning every water agency asks us to keep conserving within their individual rules. >> average is awesome, we've had some pretty big swings in the last couple of years, but average may be coming less and less common. common feature of snowpack in california as to the all important reservoirs, california's big six mega reservoirs are already 113% of their historical levels and still have 16% of their capacity left to store any additional rains, plus, the coming snow melt. >> all but three of northern california's 37 key reservoirs are above 100% of normal, the rest very close to normal. >> now, many of us growing up learned the old adage april showers bring may flowers. well in california, we know that

79 degrees. so now we're talking about what, a 19 degree temperature span 74 degrees in concord, clayton, walnut creek, high 60s around union city today , 73 in redwood city, as well as redwood shores. we're taking a look out towards mount diablo right now. we're currently at 61 degrees at 3800ft. we are anticipating a light smattering of new snow falling by thursday morning. at 3800ft, and it will be short lived. could melt very rapidly, but we're going to keep our eyes peeled and watching for that. yes i talked about snow just now because of this right here. it's an approaching trough. it's already enhanced. that marine layer that's hanging tight to the california coast. it's already providing some rain showers and sleet right around the mount vancouver area on that international border. and the rain is now beginning to slip into seattle and will make tracks towards portland. but let's go ahead and take it from here. there's your wednesday morning officials. sun up is at

650. we will have the clouds at the coast sliding into the central bay, marching at least a good 5060 miles into the eastern portion of our bay area, also to the north towards rohnert park and also saturating the campbell and cupertino area, making tracks towards gilroy and morgan hill. okay, here's the trough slicing through about this time tomorrow night. but behind it, the associated cold front. there it is. it's moving in a lot quicker than our computer models did illustrate yesterday. we have rain for the morning commute. it's hit and miss, scattered showers and notice that circulation around that core, that center of area, low pressure. that's what we're going to have a lot of instability. and that's why i have to put a chance of a thunderstorm in the thursday forecast, watch as it slides and circulates through the bay area for friday. then we take you up to friday afternoon game time for the home opener for san francisco giants is at 130, going with mostly cloudy skies, a chance of a shower. it will be blustery. the west winds at ten,

occasional gusts higher than 20 c, so it's baseball weather in the bay area, so we should see up to an inch of rain in the highest elevations of the bay area. otherwise about a half an inch of rain around the san francisco and central bay. tonight's overnight lows not as cold as last night due to the blanket of clouds rolling in tomorrow. coming down a big day. it's a transition day for your wednesday. unsettled weather for your thursday and friday. partly cloudy on saturday and yet another chance of rain. gang on sunday. >> all right, we'll get the umbrellas ready. roberto. thank you. moving to a new and tougher conference has not slowed down. the san jose state gymnastics team, who were selected to compete in the ncaa regionals this week. jesse gary has their story next. and a quick reminder right now that you can get ktvu on demand on your smart tv through the fox local app. >> you can watch live newscasts and see all kinds of in-depth content from our newsroom on a variety of topics, and it's a free download for your smart tv
