9:20 am
chance of a thunderstorm, and this system is a slow mover so we could even see a few areas of rain into tuesday. so tonight into sunday we'll get that light to moderate rain, the gusty south winds, chance of thunderstorms, and with that could see some embedded hail. here's the way it looks for the day today with some of the cloud cover, 5:00, some partly sunny conditions at times, then here comes the rain in the north bay. overnight it spreads to the south, to the southeast, and as we get into your sunday afternoon, we've got pockets of soutbay.rms, and then k to fuel ha thonpr as we get into sunday. here is your monday overnight. we're going to add to the rain totals on tuesday. this is your three-day rain total. this is early tuesday. there should be a little more after that, anywhere from about a half inch in oakland and fremont totals adding up.
9:21 am
the north bay, the hills, three quarters to an inch of rain. elsewhere, anywhere from about 0.2 to probably about a half inch to three-quarters of an inch for most of the bay area. high-elevation snow is on the way for monday into tuesday, 3 to 8 inches above 6,500 feet, and at -- above that we could see anywhere about a foot. so looking at some e pretty significant snow. good thing travel is not advised there because it will get particularly tricky into the early part of next week. 70 in oakland today, 75 in fremont, 78 in san jose. the accuweather seven-day forecast, rain beginning early evening in the north bay and spreading south. level 1 tomorrow for periods of rain, looking at that system continuing into monday. chance of thunderstorms and maybe a few showers on tuesday. but after that, it's sunny, milder, nice for the long holiday weekend next weekend. liz? >> sounds good. thanks, lisa. a show of support dedicated

9:26 am
some real work they need to do. >> reporter: some camps adedill not open for the summer. others are awaiting guidance from state and local governments. in new york and new jersey, the epicenter of the virus in the u.s., governors have yet to say whether camps are even a possibility this summer. in states like rhode island, camps are allowed to resume as usual, but under strict guidelines with children divided into groups of ten or less. then there are virtual camps like those offered in montgomery county, pennsylvania. >> you can choose anything like "mine craft," coding camps with scratch or java, python, even graphic design camps. >> reporter: ultimately, it will be up to not just governments and camps but also parents. >> it's going to be a very nuanced position for parents as they wait for the data from e c preparation that those camps are take on the ensure the safety of the campers. so clearly for the parents, it's going to be a complicated
9:27 am
choice. >> even if everything checks out and everyone is on board, the cdc is still telling camps to be prepapered to communicate with health officials should there be a sudden increase of cases in their area or at the camp itself. still to come on "abc7 mornings," the white house's prediction for a vaccine. the president aiming for developments by the end of the year. do his own experts think that time line isist realistic? and a central california restaurant is facing a challenge, how they're staying open during the pandemic.
9:29 am
9:30 am
vaccine will be developed by the end of the year but members of the white house coronavirus task force team are not sure about that. if you're just joining us, we start with a look at the weather. the rain is coming in this weekend. >> look at this. look at this santa cruz shot where it is 60 degrees, going for a high of 70. certainly you can see the clouds, but that is beautiful. some sun out there this morning, peeks this amp, but high-level clouds will be advancing ahead of the front. mild in san jose, 63. how about that 64 in oakland? from our roof camera, partly sunny conditions downtown. it is in the mid-60s up in napa. so partly sunny, partly cloudy there. but as we go through the day, get out there quick and enjoy the sun because here come the clouds. here it is by 1:00. north bay pretty cloudy, and then by the afternoon, we've got more clouds around. the rain doesn't arrive until later on in the evening in the

9:32 am
kind of a long shot? >> it's definitely not a long shot, senator romney. i would think it is more likely that we will. >> reporter: the president made it clear the country will bounce back with or without a vaccine. >> it's very important. vaccine or no vaccine, we're back. and we're starting the process. >> reporter: and this morning, new questions about the rapid covid-19 test used by the white house. the fda warning early data suggests potential inaccurate results from using the abbott id-now point of care test to diagnose covid-19. specifically, the test may return a false negative result. that test is used to screen people close to the president. one study indicated abbott could be missing as much as 48% of positive cases. the president dismissing concerns. >> no. abbott is a great test, a very quick test. and it can always be very rapidly double-checked if you're
9:33 am
testing positive or negative. >> reporter: rachel scott, abc news, washington. let's take a live look from our sfo cam. air travel has been off the table for many people for months, but as americans slowly retake to the skies, expect lots of changes starting from the moment you arrive at the airport. abc news has the details. >> reporter: the next time you fly, the number on a thermometer may be just as important as your gate number. this morning "the wall street journal" reports the white house is considering passenger temperature checks at about a dozen airports, an effort to keep covid-19 from spreading city to city. the tsa says no decision has been made regarding specific health screening measures at airports. the safety and security of the traveling public and our employees will always be our top priority. fever checks are already popping up in some airports. in bozeman, montana, national guard troops check every arriving passenger. at l.a.x. they're planning to use new cameras that sense heat. >> we could see on the screen xwho who has an enhanced
9:34 am
temperature and then we can do a further secondary check on that person to determine if they are ill or not. >> reporter: the future of flying includes facemasks, touchless kiosks, high-tech plane cleaning and maybe long delays. >> the physical distancing is going to be the biggest challenge, and that probably will be the cause of most delays. >> reporter: despite social distancing guidelines, pictures of crowded flights like these may not go away as airlines stand to lose $300 billion and say they can't afford empty seats. a high-level source at one major carrier tells abc news they're looking to essentially eliminate social distancing. amb amber o'hara has three cruises booked during the fall and no problem traveling during a pandemic. >> i kind of liken it to what happened with the airline industry after 9/11. it was probably the safest time to fly because they had put in new rules and taken care of handling the security aspect.

9:36 am
concerns. >> the government can say in this area we found that 2,000 people are exposed. we cannot have that information. >> reporter: the app works on a user to user basis. in this illustration, for example, bob would have to tell the app that he tested positive for covid-19 before an anonymous alert goes out to anyone he's come into contact with based on i.d.s exchanged through the app. napa says tech companies should think about doing more, especially now that the data they collect can be used for public good. >> it is the opportunity for the tech companies to read in their invitation -- to regain their reputation after the privacy and breaches. >> chris reyes for abc news.bc e it's time to see how people are dealing with challenges of their own. >> it is so much more than just
