santa rosa, quarter-mile, up to ukiah. you certainly have the fog and novato can't see a thing there with three miles at concord, seven miles at livermore. a lot like yesterday, that fog from our east bay valleys will be filling in to the san joaquin, the southern sacramento valley should be filling into the east bay due to the light east wind. as a result the national weather service issued a dense fog advisory for this region here until 11:00. it took some time yesterday and then we had that haze in the atmosphere, once again, high pressure pushing down on the atmosphere, allowing for very little wind, very little mixing and it's a heavier air mass so as we look at the rest of the day today, we have a lot of sunshine. this is your sunday, but as we get into monday there's a weak weather system to the north here that potentially will probably stay to the north but there is an outside chance that we could see a few showers maybe monday night. otherwise we're dry as we take you into your tuesday.

wednesday probably a lot of errands going on, and then as we get into christmas eve, still another dry day, but by friday, christmas day, looking at some showers here, it is 4:00 in the afternoon, and continuing into saturday looking at some scattered showers. so we'll watch it. hopefully another system behind this one, but overall it's high pressure in control again for today, and then this will take us into that last week of the year. highs ranging from the upper 50s in the city so another cool one here, 57 at the coast. look for 62 over in fremont, livermore about 60 in vallejo. mid-60s down towards morgan hill, a little milder there, 65 in santa cruz, and the accuweather seven-day forecast for today may be a few degrees warmer in spots from upper 50s to mid-60s around the bay. winter arrives on monday, really just with no real fanfare. it's tuesday we could see a little bit more cloud cover, maybe a few sprinkles monday night and as we get into your

wednesday, back side of that system brings some breezy winds and hoping for that level one on friday to bring us a little christmas treat in the form of a little rain. liz? >> it would be nice. lisa, thank you. just ahead, an update on covid-19 in marin county, where latinos over the summer made up nearly 80% of cases. i talk with the ceo of the canal alliance in san rafael, one of the people who has been at the heart of addressing this issue.

as we near the end of the year we've been looking back at important people and stories that have shaped 2020.

in july we took an in-depth look at marin county. latinos made up nearly 80% of covid-19 cases despite being just 16% of the county's population. it's the largest racial disparity of any county in the bay area. one of the people who has been at the heart of addressing this issue is omar carrera, ceo of the canal alliance in san rafael who is joining us now to talk about where things currently stand in the county. omar, good to see you. >> good to see you, thank you for the invitation. >> thank you. so omar, why has the latino community xh marin disproportionately impacted and have we seen any improvements over the last five months? >> there's multiple reasons why that happened, starting from the historically inequities that created the perfect environment for the virus to spread quickly. latinos are the essential workers of the county so they've been more ex-posed by the nature of the job they perform so we have continued working on education, making sure the

testing is available for the community, and it has been improvements in that area. >> we talk about what's changed, though, i think right now it's 60% of cases in the county are among latinos. so we have seen some improvem t improvement. talk about the change that we've seen since the summer. >> i think definitely testing and education. the community is also participating actively in distributing masks among their friends and families, and all of that has helped, the economic crisis that was created by the health crisis has become now a major barrier for people to continue getting access to testing. people are desperate. the debt accumulation is growing fast in relationship to the fact they cannot pay their rent. as you know, the latino community was not making no money even before the pandemic so post pandemic they have lost their jobs, they have lost hours

of work and they're not making enough money to pay the rent. >> i know you told me i think more than 10,000 families right now are at imminent risk of eviction. so what kind of help are you seeking for these families? >> it's a combination of programs that will allow us to pay back their debt. we are looking at rental assistance, looking at zero percent interest loans for the people that are able to pay, to use a loan as an instrument to pay their debt and also advocating for local policies. the last ten months we were focusing on the health crisis in particular but the economic crisis that was being built parallel to the health crisis has been coming as i mentioned like a huge tsunami coming our way and we really need to not separate the health crisis from the economic crisis so if we want to reopen our economy, we need to work towards the common good. we need to make sure the people who need the most has access to everything that they need to

survive, to take care of their families, to pay the rent, unless we don't do that, we are going to have those hard times opening in 2021. >> thank you so much for your time. >> thank you for the invitation. and still to come on mr"abc mornings," congress still trying to agree on a covid-19 relief package. why democrats and republicans believe a deal can get done today. california craft brewers are suing governor newsom over the shutdown orders. why they say they're being

had the fog and cold temperatures, repeat performance with numbers here below freezing in novato at 30. 34 in santa rosa. freezing in the san ramon valley, 33 in livermore, 34 brentwood and concord and 38 in san jose. a few degrees cooler for some of you. zero mile visibility novato and a quarter-mile santa rosa and ukiah, three miles in concord, 7 in livermore. so 9:00 pretty much in the 40s for everyone, a lot of sunshine, 2:00 some low 60s arriving in oakland. 60 in mountain view and by 5:00, we're still clear but numbers are slipping quickly, as that sun sets before 5:00 and then overnight looking at another cold night with those light offshore winds. so we are going to see a weak weather system arrive for the first day of winter tomorrow. we'll talk about that in detail as well as the christmas holiday, coming up. liz? >> lisa, thank you. developing news moderna's coronavirus vaccine the second is be granted emergency approval by the fda is beginning distribution this morning.

afternoon highs. we'll do it all again today, live doppler 7 picking up on a little bit of fog there by the delta. a dense fog advisory in that region through 11:00. high pressure protects us today, allowing for another sunny and mild afternoon, except where some of that fog sits for a while, it's been, it will take some time to warm up. it is 47 in san francisco. freezing in novato, looking at 31 in san ramon. 33 in livermore, with upper 30s union city, down through san jose. certainly a cold start to the day, a couple degrees colder and the fog once again filtering in the radiation fog to the north bay, the tulle fog in the east bay making visibility issues through 10:00. novato, concord three miles and seven miles in livermore. so high pressure does that, it pushes down on the atmospheric temperature and dew point similar and we have the light easterly winds. so from fairfield to vacaville, looking at vallejo, some fog

into rio vista, discovery bay and good idea to use your low beams if you are out early this morning. here is our exploratorium cam camera, a few clouds. otherwise a cold start again with more sunshine this afternoon, looking at winter arriving overnight on monday, and as we go through the day today, with the sunny skies, we'll have nice afternoon, but as we get into your monday, a few high clouds late in the day, a system wants to bring in some rain to the north of us, and keeping most of us dry, but there is an outside chance we could see a few sprinkles as we get into monday night. otherwise, the next system misses us, goes into southern california, and as we look at your tuesday/wednesday timeframe, maybe a few clouds into christmas eve, we're dry and then into friday, christmas day, here comes some rain in the afternoon. looks like it will be ending on saturday, and could be a widespread event for everyone to pick up a little bit of precip there. so highs today ranging from your upper 50s again along the coast,

san francisco, numbers near average, looking at some low 60s and where that fog sits it's going to take time to warm up, so upper 50s out by antioch, with about 64 all the way up in santa rosa. starting out with some of the frost all over, hopefully the plants that you brought in and the cars. you see it out there. the accuweather seven-day forecast upper 50s to mid-60s, one of the warmer days today. winner arrives tomorrow, a few clouds monday night into tuesday. maybe mitigating frosty overnight lows. we get into a quiet pattern midweek for perhaps some rain to arrive on friday. it will be a level one system, liz, a weak one but it's a start because it looks like there could be another one as we get into that final week of the year. so you know, it's something. we have a lot of catching up to do for sure in the rain department. >> i know, and i keep thinking we want the rain on christmas but also we need people to sit outside socially distanced so it would be nice to not have the rain. >> yes, certainly kind of

complicated to add to this year. >> lisa, thank you. abc 7 news dedicated this past week what you need to know about the vaccines, while the race to vaccinate a majority of americans against covid-19 is under way, there are many unknowns, including how long it will take and if the months do drag on, could it lead to a kind of viral divide? so abc 7 morning news anchor examines what life could be like in the world of vaccine haves and have nots. >> reporter: it's the dream on the horizon, a world without masks where you glide through the airport or sit down to dinner wherever you want. the question now is, will you need a so-called vaccine passport to get there, proof that you've had the shot? some experts say it doesn't have to. >> if it comes out with a relatively high acceptance rate, like 60%, 70% of people, miller time. we're done. >> reporter: what if vaccinations begin to slow? infectious disease expert dr. george rutherford of ucsf says

the problems would begin if many months go by and some groups still have trouble getting a shot, or a significant number choose not to, leaving us short of the majority needed to reach an overall herd immunity. at that point, some worry about a potential scenario of vaccine haves and have nots. >> you're the ones get to see the giants play, you're the one who will get to go to the a's game, the one who gets to go to a restaurant and to the movie theater. you're the one that united airlines is going to let on the plane. >> reporter: and airline trade group is finalizing plans for a vaccine travel pass and the department of defense has released images of a vaccination record card for vaccine recipients. could they become the calling cards of a temporarily split society? >> i'm not sure i believe in airlines or restaurants doing that. i think that instead, let's get people vaccinated as fast as we can. >> reporter: fellow ucf infectious disease expert dr.

monica gandhi reports researchers haven't determined whether vaccinated people could still be infectious for a time and believes precautions will be critical in the months to come, even with increased pressure to return to normal. >> they continue to wear their masks until everyone, enough of the people are vaccinated, like you said, so that we can get to herd immunity. >> reporter: to speed that time line, some have suggested mandates vaccinations as soon as they're available for students returning to school, possibly accelerating the drive toward herd immunity. berkeley professor arthur reingold is hoping that won't be necessary. >> well, i always prefer incentives and knowledge and to mandates, mandates are very unpopular although mandates tend to get the job done. >> reporter: they believe getting vaccines distribute as quickly and widely as possible is the key to avoiding potentially fractured months with the prospect of passport

privileges and vaccine haves and have nots. >> you know, i think that's how we're going to, where we're going to end up with infection rates dropping. >> reporter: and perhaps ultimately realizing the elusive dream of return to normal. in san francisco, kumasi erin, abc 7 news. >> you'll find the stories online at abc7news.com/vaccine. we have them all there really, really fascinating stuff. next, the south bay toy give-away making sure children in need have a present to open
