on the red carpet oscars 2021 section. let's get a check outside and finally we do see a little bit of rain and it is a good day because people can sit and watch the oscars. the deficit is anywhere from 8 or 9 inches to nearly 30 inches across the bay area so it is certainly not to make any impact at all on the drought, it does help to keep the brush from staying a little bit on the damp side, but then, again, that happens, it really fuel some growth. we are looking at a little bit of scattered activity here with live doppler 7 and the sweep on top of mount st. helena and you see some showers in santa rosa and the front sits right around santa rosa. as we look down further south we noticed the showers are scattered about and as we look across the san mateo bridge in the dumbarton bridge, some light activity further south around palo alto and sunnyvale

and a few sprinkles in light rain showers and then along the santa cruz mountains getting into some activity and the sierra nevada a winter storm warning in effect and we are looking at a little bit of light snow there and putting it into motion you will see that we are getting some shower activity filling in south of the front and the wind will kick up out of the south and then the front sweeps from north to southeast throughout the late morning hours and the early afternoon and we will even get some sun up in the north bay later on today and there is a look at the cloudy city 51 downtown and 54 in oakland 57 in mountain view and 56 in san jose and 50 for you in morgan hill with gray skies here and looking at temperatures in the low to mid 50s from santa rosa and 55 in novato and concord. with that breezy south wind ahead of the front, temperatures won't budge too much but look at what we have in mount rose with gusty wind in excess of 50 mph on the ridge tops and we expect

of snow. scattered showers out there and wet and breezy and then we will have that clearing from the north and a few showers lingering from the peninsula to the south bay and it will be a cold start into monday with a few isolated showers perhaps lingering right before sunrise so today 1/10 to 2/10 for most. we do still have a possibility of a thunderstorm perhaps in napa county this afternoon as the cooler unstable air moves in. you could get a little bit more bonus accumulated rain up in the north bay. there is the front around 10:00 or 11:00 and 1:00 pushing and the east bay and the peninsula and south bay by 3:00. we do have showers in the east and south bay. with the sunshine, we could see a chance of a thunderstorm to the north. there is about 1/10 of an inch in mountain view and less than that in san jose and one quarter of an inch perhaps enrichment and hopefully for tenths up in calistoga. here is the snow through monday morning and very difficult situation there. not advising anybody to drive there. about a foot in kirkwood so that is good for late april and for the rest of the day with

showers with about 9:00 or 10:00 moving to the north bay. it is the east and south bay throughout the afternoon then by the evening hours things will be quieter. we could see some sunshine which could fuel a thunderstorm particularly up in the north bay today. the oscars are hours away and this year will be a ceremony like you have never seen before and we are taking a look right now at the dolby theater in hollywood. it is one of the two sites of tonight show. we are in los angeles with more and what to expect tonight. >> reporter: it is hollywood's most anticipated night of the year and the 93rd academy awards with finishing touches underway and those iconic letters rolling out on the red carpet. they have never looked quite like this. >> the academy has said instead of our traditional live show it will look like a movie, so i think it will be a love letter to movies, but also a lot of

to some more news. we begin this morning with the new washington post poll showing a lukewarm approval rating for president biden now 100 days into office with 52% of americans approving of the job and the rating shows strong marks on his handling of the pandemic but then lower marks for his handling of the economy and immigration at the border. since 1945 only gerald ford at 48% and donald trump at 42% have had lower ratings 100 days in. this comes as president biden makes history this week and becoming the first president in office to label the massacre of hundreds of thousands of armenians during world war i as a genocide. governor newsom also doing the same and yesterday around the world including celebrities like chloe kardashian and those killed and in san francisco you can see hundreds gathered and laid flowers at the mount davidson cross. for some background starting in 1915, 1 1/2 million armenians

were massacred or deported from the ottoman empire which is now turkey and up until present biden's historic statement past presidents avoided using the word genocide not wanting to antagonize the american ally turkey which has rejected the label for years. the turkish government was quick to denounce a statement saying it won't yield any results other than polarizing nations and hindering peace and stability in a region. the white house said president biden talked with the turkish president on friday and the two leaders agreed to meet at the nato summit in june. the bay areas armenians has 150,000 people in many say president biden's recognition is what their grandparents and parents had been waiting for for over 100 years. they say it is the first step into their own healing. a san bruno man told us the

story of his grandfather and what it means to him. >> my grandfather was in his late teens and early 20s and they went to syria as refugees. they fled the genocide and as soon as we heard, we were all cheering. >> last week counties designated april 24 as armenian genocide commemoration data teach public schools about the historic day. two bay area communities will hold their own prayer vigils calling for peace and unity. this first is united we stand rally in santa clara starting at 3:00 this afternoon at river of life church and the mayor is expected to attend along with the mayors of santa clara, fremont and saratoga. at 5:00 another vigil in oakland will be at 16th and adeline street s still to come, a local documentary may just when an oscar tonight. the bay area civil rights movement would not be the same without it. here's a live look outside this morning at the golden gate
