time right now is 5:43 and we're taking a live look outside from our golden gate bridge camera. you can see the roads are wet this morning. we'll get a check of the full accuweather report from meteorologist lisa argen coming up in a little bit. in sports, tonight the warriors will be well represented in charlotte at the nba all-star game. kevin durant and klay thompson will be on team lebron facing steph curry, who is on team giannis. lebron james and giannis antetokounmpo selected the teams. tip-off is 5:00 p.m. at the spectrum center. last night, steph battled his brother in the shooting contest. mindy back has the highlights. >> reporter: stephen curry had a lot riding on the three-point shooting contest saturday night.

his brother seth was also competing and the brothers made a fairly expensive bet over who would finish higher. steph scored 27 points in the first round, so he advanced to the finals with buddy hield and joey harris. harris of the nets caught fire in the finals. he put up 26 points and hit all five on the bonus rack. those are worth two points each. steph made nine of his first ten shots but needed to make all of the bonus balls to force overtime. he came up one basket short. but he's okay with it, as larry beil explains. >> so close, yet so far. steph curry came within one, in and out, of forcing overtime in the three-point shoot-out, instead losing by two points to joe harris. >> it's a make-or-miss ma make-or-miss competition. tough way to end it, but joe shut the lights out. it was a great show. i think going into this knowing how strong the field was, whoever won was going to have to

earn it. >> i thought, this guy's not going to miss a shot at all. what was going through your mind? >> it's just such an adrenaline rush. this is what we were talking about on the bench the most is how much fun it is to do this competition. you know, that minute seems like an eternity just because it's just you and the racks and the basket out there. so, i definitely had fun. >> but you guys had a bet on this, and how does that stand, because you got him in points. >> yeah, we'll have to talk about it. we'll have to get a mediator in there and see what's going on. >> upon further review, steph said total points would decide this, so he will pay for family tickets for life in their he did-to-head e, larrybeil, abc7 s sixfinal game of a four-game ro trip, and they blew him out. saturday night's game was in san jose and much more evenly matched. mainly, the canucks were not using an emergency goalie.

and erik karlsson returned. he missed the last nine games due to a groin injury. the defenseman made an immediate impact, set up timo meier for the opening goal, his 21st of the year. in the second tied at 1-1, logan couture showed patience and beat david mark strom. the sharks take the one-goal lead after two periods but the canucks come back. besser takes it from behind the net and fools martin jones. that's his 21st of the season. under seven minutes to go in the game and the shot is stopped but joe pavelski is there for the rebound. that is his 31st of the season. the sharks win 3-2. nba all-star weekend comes to a close today with the actual all-star game, as you saw, larry beil is in charlotte. we're going to bring you those highlights from charlotte and from here in studio tonight starting at 5:00. until then, have a great day. time now is 5:46. turning to weather now and the bay area forecast with

meteorogt lisa >> ll, it seems g day, same thing over and over. and once again, starting out with the showers, but a live look outside where the viewpoint looks pretty good, but we do have rain and clouds around, certainly sinking to the south around the bay area, and it will clear up later on today for most of us, but boy, we've been talking about the mountains and the banner snow that they've had. well, how much did they get? since about thursday, they added up the totals into feet and you can see from sierra tahoe, 58 inches, 70 inches reported at squaw, 64 inches north star, heavenly 59. 53 at kirkwood and mt. rose almost 3 feet. so, more is to come,r s warning in effect through 4:00 this afternoon. and we have an advisory for the west slopes. here's the san mateo bridge. we can see the drops on the lens there. it's wet, it's slippery, and the winds are going to pick up the activity pushing to the south, sinking into the south bay.

that rain/snow mix around mt. hamilton, san jose, guadalupe parkway and 680 looking at light showers. they're lighter as we go further north from fremont and newark but still wet from milpitas and into pleasanton, dublin boulevard looking at some wet weather. and back through schaffer ranch road into oakland and alameda this morning, while emeryville embarcadero, 880, i should say, where we have a light shower. the peninsula looking at the wet weather down through 101, san mateo down through belmont there. then finally, you can see along the coast here the higher elevations, the summit, santa cruz mountains looking at a little bit of that moisture. so, in the mountains, an additional 5 to 7 inches expected right on through the morning hours, basically. and by the afternoon, things will wind down, but the upper foothills, the west slopes on the way to sierra nevada still could see several inches of snow. this goes until 4:00. and then actually, winter storm warning now until 7:00. so still a lot of activity up
