mild weather this afternoon. upper 60s for most everyone, possibly hitting 70 degrees in a few locations and we'll start cooling down 7:00 tonight. if you have evening plans grab a jacket, temperatures will drop down quickly into the 50s. we have some gorgeous weather ahead, but i'll tell you when we can expect our next chance of rain coming up. chris. frances, thank you. the longest government shutdown in american f no congo fund the government for three weeks. president trump signed it and announced a deal with democrats after he backed down on his demand for border wall money. abc news reporter kenneth moton has the latest. >> reporter: the government is open again. congress quickly passing a three-week spending bill. >> the president of the united states. >> reporter: after president trump backed down. a 35-day partial government shutdown triggered by his demand for $5.7 billion for a wall on the southern border. >> let me be very clear. we really have no choice but to

build a powerful wall or steel barrier. >> reporter: but the short-term deal, no money for a wall, back pay for federal workers who missed paychecks, but nothing for thousands of federal contractors. the president also agreed to a bipartisan congressional conference which will try to hammer out a deal on border security. >> are you no longer ruling out any money for the wall? >> wait, wait, have i not been clear on a wall? no, i have been very clear on the wall. >> reporter: but the president has threatened to shut down the government again in three weeks or declare a national emergency if he doesn't get what he wants. the president was facing mounting political and public pressure. federal workers struggling to pay bills in food lines, delays at airports due to unpaid air traffic controllers and tsa agents calling out. more than half of the 26,000 irs workers recalled for the tax season didn't show up to work. >> shutting down the government over a policy difference is

self-defeating. >> reporter: as federal agencies, parks and museums tart to reopen, the president and lawmakers say federal workers will receive that back pay in the coming days. kenneth moton, abc news, washington. >> the president was criticized by some people for allowing the government to reopen without the $5.7 billion for a border wall. last night he tweeted i wish people would read or listen to my words on the border wall. this was in no way a concession. it was taking care of millions of people who were getting badly hurt by the shutdown with the understanding that in 21 days, if no deal is done, it's off to the races. so when will federal workers get paid? former treasury department employees say it likely won't happen until next week. first they'll have to file time cards. agencies will have to approve them and then the treasury department will have to issue the checks. that's unwelcome news for many bay area families who say they're struggling right now. unser has their reaction. >> are you hungry?

>> immediate family is thousands of miles away, so we make family where we go. >> reporter: it includes billy and his wife who treated coast guard chief michael and his family to dinner. >> you know, they're just toughing it out. they don't really say a lot. they're proud. and so it's got to be tough. >> reporter: and it has been. chief mcclintock is a health services technician with the coast guard's pacific strike team based in novato. he goes to work but he hasn't been paid in weeks due to the government shutdown. >> the last two weeks have been stressful and difficult. there's been loans and payment deferments. >> reporter: heather says they were happy to hear the white house announce a three-week stop-gap bill reopening the government through at least february 15, but then what? >> it's really just a band-aid. i'm afraid that we're going to be in the same exact position in three weeks. >> reporter: christine's husband also works for the coast guard.

they're behind on bills and used savings to pay renti. across the bay area many coast guard families have turned to food banks and other charities just to meet basic needs, like food. >> do i just hoard these paychecks because i'm nervous. will we be able to pay for our kids' food. >> reporter: some federal workers took advantage of no-interest loans which they were offered which is supposed to be paid back as soon as the government reopens. many now have to figure out with this being just a temporary fix if their loans are due now as well. federal workers in the bay area rallied at the oakland airport saying while they're somewhat relieved by yesterday's news, they're still worried about the government shutting down again in three weeks. >> no more shutdown! >> tsa workers, other federal employees and representatives of bay area labor unions called on lawmakers to find a permanent ending to the shutdown.

many say they feel like they're being used as political pawns. american companies are still committing millions of dollars to help federal workers make ends meet. jpmorgan chase will donate $1 million to programs set up by feeding america and the united way. also united airlines will donate $1 million and walmart has committed $300,000 to support programs for unpaid workers. as for the state of the union, speaker nancy pelosi says there are no plans to move forward with the president's speech next tuesday. pelosi says she told the president that when the government is open, they would discuss a mutually agreeable date. so what does the end of the shutdown mean for tax season? the irs and the california franchise tax board are urging all of us to file taxes despite the volatility in washington. hundreds of irs workers skipped work during the shutdown. california began accepting returns at the start of the month. the irs will begin accepting returns on monday. >> i think people are maybe a

little bit confused with the shutdown, but the bottom line is we're just encouraging everyone to file as they normally would. >> officials warned the new tax reform plan may make returns more complicated this year. frightening moments for the stanford track team heading to a competition. their charter bus went up in flames as it was driving on interstate 5 in seattle. luckily everyone onboard escaped without injury. carlos has the details. >> reporter: the team's bus, seen here in flames, sitting underneath a ramp on interstate 5 in seattle. >> oh, my god! >> reporter: everyone onboard made it out before the fire and smoke overtook the charter bus. the stanford athletes en route to a track meet. >> all of a sudden we heard a pop. it kind of sounded like a gunshot. we pulled to the side of the road and noticed smoke billowing. >> reporter: once everyone made it out of the bus, they were left stranded on the highway. we facetimed with two of the team's pole vaulters afterwards.

>> it was pretty calm for the most part and then we realized all of our stuff was under the bus. that's like our uniform and our shoes, so we got a little nervous after that but everything made it out so we were very lucky. >> reporter: after two and a half hours the team was transported to the university of washington campus in a city bus. >> we got some of our kids on there nervous about the meet and then this happens and you realize that there's much bigger things in life. i think that perspective is actually probably really valuable for them. >> reporter: some students back on the stanford campus were worried for their friends. >> i was really scared. i texted her. oh, my gosh, what's wrong, are you okay? she was like our bus caught on fire, but we're fine. >> reporter: their message to everyone back home? >> we're safe, doing great, ready to compete and make the school proud. the meet must go on. >> reporter: and the track meet is expected to go on as scheduled saturday. now, students actually spent the night washing their clothes to get rid of the stench of smoke. once their meet is done, they will fly back.

>> it doesn't have the same meaning, so no. >> the artists and age friendly apologized saying a new version will be unveiled at a later date. the time is 5:10 on this saturday morning. frances is in tracking the accuweather forecast for us. >> it's going to be gorgeous today, plenty of sunshine, above average temperatures. here's a live look outside, how clear it is looking down towards san francisco, so a great day to be outdoors. i'll have your neighborhood temperature forecast coming up. also ahead, a family narrowly escaped a fire that tore through their pip ole apartment. meet the he rroes coming to the aid once against. >> reporter: i'm here to tell you about a program that's keeping teachers, firefighters
