[ cheers and applause ] because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities. >> reporter: janai norman, abc news, new york. with the biggest election question being answered, there is one that's now emerging for all of us in california. who replaces vice president elect kamala harris in the u.s. senate? phil matier has theories. >> it could be a chess game. if he takes attorney general javier becerra, former congressman, he would have an opening for the attorney general that he could put in. let the chess game begin. >> in a recent poll of california voters for the pick they would prefer, bay area congresswoman barbara lee and congressman ro khanna were at the top of the pack. whoever newsom appoints, that

person will have the senate seat until 2022. when is the last time we said this? chain controls are in effect on highway 50 and interstate 80 in lake tahoe. the area is getting its very first snowfall of the year. and i don't know about you, but i put on the heat last night, lisa, it wasn't that cold. >> you know what, jobina, you were smart, because it's certainly going to get even colder out there as the winds back off tonight and into monday night. live doppler 7 right now, picking up on the precip to the west of us, the snow to the east of us. but right over the bay area, no, we can't get any rain. the flow out of the north-northwest continues to have active weather out at sea with thunderstorms there. and even san diego getting rain in southern california. for us, gusty winds, dry conditions. here is the view, and you notice that the camera is shaking here at the golden gate bridge. 56 in mountain view. 54 in half moon bay.

it's going to be a blustery day out there with wind gusts over 40 miles an hour at times. numbers staying in the 50s for most of us. low 50s in santa rosa. overnight lows didn't drop too much because of those winds, but they're chilly winds. towards san jose, a few clouds here. it doesn't even look like you'll get a sprinkle. we had thought some of the hills of the south bay could see a few sprinkles but it's really all about the wind today. the frost tonight in the north bay, a frost advisory with rain likely to return by the end of the week. rain chances increasing by thursday and friday. the airport, wind gusts to 39 miles per hour at the surface, 25 to 25-mile-per-hour winds come in. east bay, wind gusts at 28 miles an hour. certainly cold conditions out there. just another indication as you look at this hour by hour forecast, of how that precip misses us. it's on the ocean and continues to run parallel to the coast, so

it's driving the cold air into the bay and it's keeping the winds with us. in fact the strongest winds have likely already occurred and lessen just a little bit but they'll continue out of the north the entire day today. wind advisory expires after 4:00 but after 5:00, it's still windy to breezy out there. slowly those winds will back off. your mid-week forecast, we're likely to bring rain back in the forecast by thursday. so it's dry, and temperatures moderating as we get into the middle of the week. but it's thursday into friday that we're hoping this rain continues on this course, bringing mountain snow and some decent totals to the bay area. but between now and then, it's a chilly day out there. in fact blustery with highs only in the mid-50s. remember that wind advisory. throughout the afternoon we're talking 61 in oakland. you see the green there. this forecast model wants to paint a little bit of precip maybe in higher elevations. overall, it's dry and windy. here is our frost advisory, 3:00

to 9:00 on monday for the valleys of the north bay, rohnert park, napa, san rafael, novato. 30s to 20s out there overnight tonight. the accuweather seven-day forecast, we're cold and windy today. several cold mornings ahead. but slightly warmer afternoons, staying dry to late thursday into friday. that second system looking stronger. so we'll keep our fingers crossed. who says you can't make a pizza in five minutes? learn how to make a tortilla pizza on your daily clip sponsored by tiktok. surprise! ahhh! yes! i love it!
