good to see you. >> good to see you, liz. good to see you virtually. >> i want to ask you about the inauguration, three days away. a lot of people here in the bay area are excited about this given our local connection. are you planning to attend? are you concerned about security? what are what do you expect to happen that day? >> well, certainly, everyone is concerned about security, especially after the horrific events of january 6th. at this moment, the security precautions have been really enhanced. i mean, this looks like i say baghdad west. it's really remarkable. there will be many, many national guard individuals here and different layers of security. but these white supremacists who were determined to enter the capitol in an attempted coup are making their continued threatss,

so our fbi and the security agencies are tracking the chatter, and they're doing everything they can do to make sure it's secure. believe you me, the threats are real. and the threats are real all over the country, especially here at the capital. so everyone is taking every bit of precaution possible. >> just to confirm, are you planning to attend still on wednesday? >> well, i hope to see vice president-elect kamala harris sworn in as our vice president, born and raised in our area, raised in berkeley. it's such a history day, i definitely intend to be there unless we're told that it's not safe. >> right. for sure. going back to the attack at the capitol, more than 30 of your colleagues have signed a letter calling for an investigation into what they're calling suspicious visitors potentially seen touring the capitol the day before the attack. did you see anything like?

do you have reason to believe some of the would-be insurrectionists were inside the capitol the day before the riot? >> i have every reason to believe that. when you look at how the plans were laid out, they knew parts of the capitol they should not have known how to get to. when you look at all the details now coming out, i absolutely believe that there was some co-conspirators on the inside helping this attempted coup to take place. >> given that, do you feel safe at the capitol right now? we heard reports about some lawmakers refusing to go through the new metal detectors. yesterday i heard one of your democratic colleagues say that she wants a bulletproof vest now when she goes to work at the capitol. how do you feel there? do you feel safe? >> well, let me tell you, i'm really pleased, first of all, our speaker made sure that the top command of the capitol police were fired, and that was a good first step. yes, metal detectors are extremely important now because believe you me, we have some

qanon members of congress, members of congress who have said they have carried weapons to the floor, and we have some -- believe me, last week i did see some interact with the capitol police really not wanting to go through the metal detectors. and why do you not want to go through metal detectors? so it's a very dicey situation, and we have to do everything we can do to protect ourselves from those colleagues we have to work with each and every day. >> i want to move on to the pandemic for a second. your thoughts of the impeachment last week. ten republican house members did vote yes. were you happy to see that many or were you hoping for more? >> i wanted to see all of the republicans vote for impeachment because the evidence is there. this president incited violence. he laid the foundation not only recently but throughout his presidency for hostile and angry

responses, and, in fact, he has violated the constitution. no one is above the law, including the commander in chief. so he should be held accountable, and this is the proper process to move forward to hold the president accountable. and for those who voted against impeachment or voted against the sealing of the electoral college, they are complicit with his lies about the election results, which we know biden and harris won. >> so let's talk about the pandemic for a moment, take a break from politics. the vaccinations, there's a lot of chaos and confusion in california right now about how and when to get a vaccine. we know now everybody 65 and older is supposed to be able to get it. there doesn't seem to be a plan in place to make it happen. why do you think california is having such a hard time with our vaccination rollout? >> liz, it's not just california. it's every state. come on. we've been trying to get this trump administration to help us put forth a national testing and

vaccine plan since march. they still have not done that. it takes a partner at the federal government so that the states can move forward with the plan and the roadmap. and when you hold back vaccines, when you say there are reserves when there really aren't reserves, that's another lie that the trump administration has promoted, then it's going to create this kind of chaos. i think that our governor and our state officials are doing the best they can to make sure that everyone gets vaccinated and that it's done in an organized way. when you don't have the federal government as a partner, it's scrambling. we're trying to fix that and thank goodness the biden/harris team have plans on how to do that. i have to say, i got $2.8 billion in this last survival stimulus package, $300 of which are for vaccines for medically underserved communities, black and brown communities that are disproportionately impacted by this virus. that money is going to come

sooner or later, hopefully sooner. we have the other $2.5 billion for contact tracing, testing, and isolation and health care. that's again targeted for racial minorities, ethnic minority, underserved communities that need this help so desperately. but believe me, the states have never had a partner with this administration on this horrific virus. >> so, congresswoman, what is your advice then to someone in your district, 65 or older, wants to get vaccinated? who do they call? what do they do? >> listen i can't give advice in terms of direction, but i can suggest that you call alameda county, because they have health protocols in place and they can get answers in terms of just the plan and how the vaccine will be distributed. remember, it went to the states, then the states have the state plan and the counties have their plans. so please, call your county, but in the meantime, stay masked,

continue with hand hygiene, continue physically distancing six feeptt apart at least. we've lost almost 400,000 americans. my heart goes out to all the families. these areveeen st bausef irresponble naturend control. believe me, the biden/harris team has aggressive plans to do that. >> we are just three days away until that transition happens. back to the inauguration as our fanl question, congresswoman. it is a historic moment. i old you to reflect and talk about what it means to you that the first woman vice president is not only a woman of color but a woman of color from oaklandland, froakland, from your home and district. >> and she's a friend. i have been so excited. i endorsed her early as a member of congress when she ran for president. i have seen how people around the country relate to kamala.

secondly, this is historic. i got involved in politics through the campaign of the first african-american woman to run for the presidency, shirley chisom 50 years ago. i know she'll be carrying shirley around with her. this is long overdue. 50 years later, finally. and senator, vice president-elect harris, brings that perspective of a black woman, a south asian woman, a person of color to the issues. so gender, equity, racial equity and justice, justice for everyone will be part of the overall biden agenda because vice president-elect kamala harris will be there at the table, making sure that those perspectives are part of every decision that's being made. so i think our young girls, our young girls of color should be excited and they should know that they're able to do whatever in the heck they want to do because kamala harris, like

shirley chisom, broke a glass ceiling. shirley did it for me and kamala is doing it for so many women of color. i'm excited and happy. >> a big moment for country and for here in the bay area. congresswoman lee, thanks for joining us. stay safe on wednesday. >> thank you very much. nice being with you. >> thanks. all right. lisa, let's get a check outside. it will be beautiful again. feels like summer. >> i know. we feel guilty, don't we? a little bit, because temperatures shouldn't be this warm and we shouldn't have this offshore flow fis exactly we hae for the end of january. we're talking about elevated fire danger, so that's certainly a concern. we have about 30% of average at best for our precipitation. that's up in the north bay. elsewhere, less than 20% of average for our friends in the south bay. live doppler 7, no cloud cover, big ridge of high pressure continues to stay in place. with that the clear sky.

concerning. >> yeah, exactly. nearly 70 degrees at the coast right now. 2 to 5 inches of rain across the ba bay area keeping us at 15% to 32% of average for the rainy season. doesn't feel right, does it. we have had times like this for sure with the warm weather and the lack of rain in the winter. high pressure is built into the bay area. it's going to back off allowing for two systems to dive over it, and those will be windy systems that bring an offshore flow, elevate the fire danger, bring record warmth on the peninsula. widespread 70s today. enjoy it. 56 san francisco, 59 in oakland, 61n mvi 52se, morgan hill. how about that 68 with a light north wind, half moon bay. beautiful view here of the golden gate bridge. 47, kind of chilly in santa rosa with 55 in novato, 48 in napa. a little fog earlier. upper 50s for our friends in concord, 56 in livermore.

here's a look at the current winds 1,000 feet. mt. st. helena, 33-mile-an-hour wind gust, oakland hills about 26 miles an hour, and mt. tam nearly 30 miles an hour. mt. diablo has had winds of over 60 miles an hour, so those gusty elevations, the upper elevations, we'll have that wind worked down to the surface. it will do a couple things -- keep us warm, keep the atmosphere premixed for pretty good visibility but also allow for drying out of the atmosphere, reducing the relative humidity. rainfall has been scant so we're looking at not only that but a dangerous surf as well. we have the holiday weekend, gorgeous weather, folks flocking to the beaches, but the conditions need to be watched all over the bay area for the surf and for the potential for fires. upper 50s is where we should be for this time of year. about 74 in livermore. the airport yesterday was 75. so anywhere from about 11 to 20 mid-70s in santa rosa, looking at upper 60s downtown

san francisco. had the fog yesterday. looked like a summertime pattern. so the wave heights continue to increase, up to 22 feet. right now not bad at 8 to 9 feet, but the swell is building. got a lot of tack tif ti in the pacific, and that is allowing for continuation of some very strong rip currents, sneaker waves. as we look at our winds, we have the wind advisory, this is through tuesday 6:00 p.m., could be extended. it starts at 10:00 tonight. d winds 15 to 25 and vation looking at higher gusts. very windy conditions throughout the later evening hours, so this is going to be a breezy night tonight in the north bay and the east bay hills, then a windy monday. monday night 7:00, you can see how gusty it is with the colors there. let's add on into tuesday, a brief break and tuesday is very windy as well. we get into late in the evening and really the upper elevations are still finding some very

gusty winds. mid-70s in concord, 73 in san jose, 68 downtown. so could see some records in the north bay. and we are looking at the accuweather seven-day forecast, the holiday, martin luther king jr. day tomorrow, almost as nice because we're feeling guilty, a little bit, anyway. tuesday still pretty warm. we finally cool off. that friday rain, liz, we've been advertising, kind of eh right now. so not promising that, but we're hoping for it. >> we certainly are. lisa, thank you. the world famous kite man of martinez is taking flight again. he was grounded by an injury, but he's back flying his incredible custom kites thanks to the kindness of his community. he's giving back to that same community. >> i get asked a lot how many kilts do i have. i would have to estimate 350 to 400 kites. a lot of them are custom. the kites are all different, from little to huge to single

lines, dual lines. got to have a variety. i've been called the kite guy, the kite man. people will say are you the kite man of martinez? it creates a lot of fun just amongst the community of martinez. like a lot of people growing up, you fly kites as kids. that took about a 30-year hiatus until i moved to california and i saw some people in san francisco flying support kites. that's how i got back into it about 22 years ago. i could v i get asked since i got into the big kites to fly literally all over the world. these are literally one-of-a-kind world-class kites that have been on a world stage. the bolt is about a ten-meeter, about 32 feet across. i have one 20 meepters, about 67 feet. it's fun to get people excited. it's a great way to interact with people. last august, i hurt my back, and

people were asking when will you be out flying? i said i can't, i'm hurt, i'm sorry. people i'd never met, where do you sflif do you need food? do you need groceries? i fly for the community i love. it humbles me just to see a community come out because you're the kite man and you can't help but feel pride that the sport i enjoy is enjoyed by so many people. this is why i do it. >> that story. we need good news like that. next, an annual musical tribute to honor the life of martin luther king jr. how the event is helping a local nonprofit. california phones offers free specialized phones... like cordless phones. - ( phone ringing ) - big button, and volume-enhanced phon get details on this state program. visit right now or call during business hours. ♪ ♪ ♪
