good afternoon, everyone. if you're getting ready to step outside, run errands, going out tonight, make sure you grab those umbrellas. it is still active and unstable as seen on doppler 7. showers up the coast and will head over land shortly. seeing pockets of moderate rain. it is turning to a rain/snow mix over mt. hamilton like we've seen overnight and quite a bit of snow over the higher terrain in lake and mendecino counties. from mountain view to sunnyvale, as we head into the mt. hamilton area also a mix of rain and snow. scattered light showers around livermore. 580, the afternoon/evening rush

will be slow going. pittsburg you're seeing wet roadways as well. santa cruz mountains, felton area, ben loma. 20-minute arrival delays. this is a level one storm. today through tomorrow, scattered showers, thunder, hail, snow over the highest peaks. this afternoon between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. expect more of this wintry mix. this continues into 7:00 and even into 9:00 p.m., although it will not be as widespread later on tonight. this is what you can expect. some rain drops from our walnut creek cam. i'll have a look at the full weekend forecast coming up at 4:00 p.m. on abc 7 news. there's another video and you're going to get a better idea of what kind of scum this person is. >> he took her dog. >> much worse, he's holding a

piece of chicken he has poisoned. >> what a -- >> he leaves it behind for the dog to eat. and you see it in the video. when the dog finds the piece of chicken, to start eating it. the dog was discovered just in time, taken to the vet, where it was saved and because of the video, they know how the dog got sick. >> i think she made the right decision. in making him her ex. >> yes, especially when she found out that the previous girlfriend had been a victim of his, and he tried to choke her, so she decided she wanted nothing to do with it, broke it off with him. the good thing is, he was caught and he's going to be serving nine months in jail because of this. >> that's it? >> unfortunately at this point, it's just nine months but the ex-girlfriend's lawyers are hoping that they can change the charges to attempted homicide, so he can spend more time in jail. let's hope that they are able to keep him in jail and keep the community safe. looks beautiful, doesn't it? doesn't that look like a perfect

place to go free diving? >> nah. >> come on. use your imagination here. sometimes you can't always judge a swamp hole by its algae cover. >> wow. drops off deep here. >> once jake breaks through that green sludge at the top, check out what he sees below. >> alligators. >> okay. >> crystal clear, blue water. this is a popular swimming hole. right now it's a little nasty, but jake's got a plan for that. he takes a small scuba bottle, you see it there, small air bottle. he takes it to the bottom, cracks the hole and the air bubbles will create a hole in the algae, enough for the sunlight to come through and light up the swimming hole below. >> is there something particular under there he's looking for? >> normally we see jake in rivers searching for lost treasure, people who lose their gopros on tubing trips or drop their phones but in this video, the treasure is the location

itself. >> i was not expecting that to be under all of that green, nastiness. >> he wasn't either. he was really surprised by what he discovered beneath the surface of the water. he even said in this case, unusually he was a little nervous. he's usually not nervous about diving but a new place, new environment and a weird algae covering made for a little scared. he goes as deep as you can and once he's done going deep, he goes up. >> here we go. see you later, dude. >> cliff diving and let's not forget about taking the time to relax, and cast a line. i've never seen underwater fishing before but who knows, maybe it works. >> he thought about lunch. >> cool location jake found and put this video together to share it with all of us. >> i'm all good. as we are all too aware here at "right this minute," a pedestrian crossing the road is pretty much a contact sport, and i've got a couple of examples for you. first one from the philippines, check out this close call. guy crossing the street. argh!

so close, that motorbike comes right up onto him. heavy on the brakes. video is not done because he continues crossing and now, back. >> oh my goodness! >> check it out from this other angle, as he starts crossing, he gets a bit wrong, bang, and it clips him, knocks him out cold. he goes down like a sack of potatoes. however, the poster of this video posted a few photos to show he was quickly treated by those around him. you can see, he took a nasty hit to the hit. head. >> yes. >> but fortunately enough he seems to be okay. the next one british columbia, we have a very observant driver. pedestrian is waiting to cross the street. >> that's so nice. >> yes, out of nowhere, some car comes up the inside as he starts crossing. >> goodness gracious. >> he saw it at the last second. the poster of the video said the

car had an "n" a novice plate so clearly a new driver. clearly someone has to go back to traffic school. simon cowell has a messy trunk. i give him a pass. when he rescues something he never knows what he'll be called to. these are badgers, they're not friendly and they can be aggressive especially when you get close. >> oh, poo. >> oh, the language he uses, but it's okay. the only thing that troubles him are his wet feet. josh, his helper is holding the cage. let's see if they go gently. >> get this one. >> one of them is backed in a corner and backs that thing up the wall and they have to get the catch pole around its neck. once they catch it -- >> wait, wait, wait. >> seems like okay, this is an angry animal but when you're up close and that's going on, you can kind of sense the power that

animal has and this thing he says runs off into the woods like it knows where it's going. the other one in the corner shivering. it doesn't want to go the way his friend went but he's able to catch this one pretty quickly. they get angry and you don't want to be near them. i know this for a fact. and this one, also rescued and out, but are they okay? >> go with your friend. they were cold, miserable and didn't want to be there. very territorial, no major problems. the only major problem is my wet tee. >> they were six feet under until he showed up. >> that's true. he rescued those jokers, because that's what my imaginary boyfriend does all the time. dude on a plane decides to pop out of his seat. >> instead of climbing up on to the wing he still sits down. >> why his brave stunt is just getting started. >> oh! and a prankster brings out a fake box to trick his lady.

>> this is really hard for me to say, but we've been only dating for luke a month now -- >> what? >> but see what happens when his little joke backfires big time. >> are you kidding me? brought to you by crest -- healthy, beautiful smiles for life. test? yep, and my teeth are yellow. time for whitestrips. crest glamorous white whitestrips are the only ada-accepted whitening strips proven to be safe and effective. and they whiten 25x better than a leading whitening toothpaste. crest. healthy, beautiful smiles for life. i had this chest cold, but my medicine kept wearing off.

>> hey, there's no engine! ooh! >> yeah, it comes down in a cloud of dust. everybody sees it happening, goes running over. lying on his side. they've got enough manpower to easily right it. that's where you can see the passenger, the person standing up there in the front sort of trapped inside the roll bar. he's able to get out okay, as is the pilot. they were taken to the hospital, but they were pretty much immediately released because they only had minor injuries and apparently this was caused by a bit of a malfunction that i think we all heard. the engine stopped working. >> if you notice, there wasn't any putter. it was just -- >> you should do more sound effects forren ins because those were good. we head to california. last time we saw somebody do something like this, i was like sign me up. but in this case, brian has a slightly different idea. he starts climbing out, that's when i realized he wasn't harnessed in like you usually see.

in fact, he's wearing a parachute. instead of climbing up onto the wing, he still sits down. >> oh! >> and then he just hangs. >> that's awesome. >> and because two hands is easy, why not do it slightly differently, woo hoo, throws up the peace sign, hanging by one hand. >> he lets go. >> this is the coolest exit i've ever seen for a parachute on the jump. i hail you. >> yeah, my stomach. >> he comes down for a landing, no problem. i thought this was sick. i think i could start this by saying he started it. this is burt roberts. couple weeks ago he pranked his girlfriend like this. >> izzy. >> [ bleep ] you again. >> of course it was a prank, so she got back at him. >> why you getting in my bed, we've got a little brother like [ bleep ]. oh my god, bro. >> so it's his turn to get back at her. >> i think it's time i get my girlfriend back.

>> back in 2009, in our early days of google, we started working on self-driving cars. today, we're called waymo. >> the waymo self-driving car autonomous vehicles have been in development for years. this is what it looks like today in 2018. >> as it drives, waymo uses lidar which sends out millions of laser beams per second to build up a detailed picture of the world, all 360 degrees around it. it also uses radar to detect how far objects are and their speed. and visual information like whether a traffic signal is red or green. >> waymo says their vehicles can see about three football fields away. it's actually pretty impressive. what we're seeing here is exactly what the car is seeing, overlaid into this 360 view. >> when you say it's just around the corner it's literal in our case. they're testing these cars in this neighborhood. >> we see them all the time.
