11:01 pm
bad news as places like santa rosa had been expecting half an inch of rain. >> the reality is we ended up with quite a bit less. so we're faced with what potentially is a long, dry summer. >> reporter: the assistant fire marshal says their agency is likely to officially declare an early start to fire season in a matter of weeks. those who crunch the numbers say the outlook is not a good one. >> i just looked at the numbers. 85% of california is in severe, extreme or exceptional drought. compare that to last year, only 12% of the state was at that same level. >> reporter: numbers that haven't been seen since 2015. those with the water agency east bay m.u.d. say their board will vote tuesday on declaring a state one drought that would ask for a 10% voluntary reduction of water use but would not impact the cost of your water. >> so in the east bay it is it
11:02 pm
looking like the dryest year ever for us. right now there is no added financial burden to our customers. >> reporter: much of that water supply comes from the sierra foothills where we are currently at about 50% of average yearly precipitation. some of the recent bay area fires have cleared fire fuels, but in locations where past fires have burned it's a different story. >> there's a lot of those areas that have regrown, have regrown with invasive types of species, scotch broom and other types of things where in some cases it's worse than it was in 2017. >> reporter: as for water conservation, officials agree we are using much less water now than we were before previous droughts and firefighters and homeowners are much better prepared for wildfires. j.r. stone, abc7 news. after a nearly two-week pause the johnson & johnson vaccine will return to vaccination sites in the bay area as early as
11:03 pm
this week. abc7 news reporter dustin dorsey has the response from local health leaders. >> reporter: another vaccine has reentered the fight against covid-19, the johnson & johnson vaccine facing a two-week pause following serious side effects across the country, but in a joint statement today from the eight bay area countries and city of berkeley, health leaders say the risk of the rare clotting disorder is low and that j&j can safely be administered again. the san mateo county supervisor says this is huge. >> this pandemic will be with us for a while, but it gives us greater, greater hope to return back to normalcy. the j&j, putting it into the vaccine mix, is a game changer. >> reporter: he expects the return of j&j and a larger allotment of vaccines from the state will help keep the county mass vax sites open. he adds while residents in san
11:04 pm
mateo county won't get a decision on whether or not they get the j&j at a given location, it will be well advertised when people book an appointment. meanwhile here at levi stadium mass vaccination site in santa clara county residents we spoke to are mixed whether or not it's safe to return to the johnson & johnson vaccine to the public. >> i think it's great. i'm glad that they evaluated its safety. i think that really gives me confidence that all three vaccines are really safe. >> it's a little scary because you don't know the risks and if you would, you know, get a blood clot or not. i mean for me my kind of thinking is if i went in and they were only offering johnson walk away and say i'll come back another way. >> even birth control gives women a bunch of blood clots. so i think there's a lot of other medicine out there that's worse than what we're taking here. so i think there's a lot of conspiracy around, but i think they're fine. >> reporter: when we reached out to the county health department, they told us the single-dose vaccine will resume as soon as educational materials from the state are accessible so community members
11:05 pm
can make an informed decision, a decision hopefully to get the bay area out of the pandemic. >> the governor said we're looking at the june 15th date, the magic date when we're all open. i was really, really concerned that that date was a date that we weren't going to be able to hit, you know, and now as j&j a comes more into play, i feel a lot more optimistic. >> reporter: in the south bay, dustin dorsey, abc7 news. >> for more information about the race to vaccinate, head www.abc7news.com/vaccine. we've posted this interactive vaccine tracker that shows just how many people have gotten the shot where you live. moving on, it was an oscars unlike any other tonight. a new location, a whole different vibe with the pandemic and some historic wins. abc's zohreen shah joins us live from the dolby theater with the highlights from hollywood's biggest night. by the way, you look totally

11:09 pm
i would hope for me we refuse hate. >> those to me are the most powerful moments to talk about their own identity and how this impacts them and to learn more about the people making these stories. >> after years of calling for more representation the academy's members are more diverse than ever. according to the center for asian-american media, the pandemic is partially responsible. >> these movies were on netflix and on amazon prime and when they don't go through the theatrical system, you see more diversity and stories being kind of connecting and resonating with audiences. >> asians also won big. yuh-jung youn, the first korean nominated and to win best supporting actor, her heartfelt acceptance speech -- >> i cannot believe i'm here. >> -- highlighted how far the oscars has come. >> basically her speech was i watched this as a show and i never thought i'd have the ability to be on the main stage, let alone win one of the

11:11 pm
rainey's black bottom." bozeman would have been only the third actor to win posthumously. emery-based pixar won two oscars tonight for "soul" best animated film and best original score. for the trio behind the music it was the first academy award for jazz artist jon batiste and the second for musicians trent reznor and atticus ross. while vallejo singer/songwriter h.e.r. took home an oscar for original song with "fight for you" from the film "judas and the black messiah." still ahead on abc7 news at 11:00 if you're feeling inspired by the fashion from the oscars, one bay area woman can help, the business she founded to give you access to celebrity stylists right from your computer. we're entering a drier pattern starting tomorrow and much warmer temperatures midweek. good news, american tourists may be able to return to europe this supper, but it's

you're vaccinated. the head of the european commission told "the new york times" today transatlantic travel will be allowed this summer but didn't set a date. part of the reason for lifting the ban on tourists is the rapid pace of vaccinations. even so, it is still not clear how travelers will provide proof, something the eu and united states have begun discussing. shifting now to the weather, a little bit of rain, but that drying out certainly is happening for the next couple days. >> yeah. we're definitely drying out and we're talking meager amounts of rain, dion. many places got less than a tenth of an inch, although san francisco almost got 02. the system is moving east. it brought some thunderstorms to the area near chico, but we are drying out seeing less cloud cover and clearing. as we look out from sutro towards san francisco, you can
11:19 pm
see clear across the bay, oakland 51, san jose 41, half moon bay 39 degrees and from the east bay look at this wide view of the bay bridge and san francisco, all across the bay. so temperatures are in the 40s and low 50s for many areas, santa rosa 45, napa 51 degrees, concord 50, livermore 47 degrees. this time we're looking in the south bay. so this is what you can expect. we'll see partly cloudy conditions develop overnight with some possible patchy fog, more likely in the north bay and then we enter a much drier and very sunny pattern this week. in fact, temperatures will be climbing up well above average tuesday, wednesday, thursda and possibly even into friday. however, this system that has been moving east, there's still a winter storm warning in effect until 11 a.m. tomorrow. avoid driving until then. expect travel delays up to 16 inches at the highest peaks and it will be windy. overnight lows will be a little cooler, mostly 40s with a few 30s out there.
11:20 pm
so santa rosa, napa 39, could see fog develop, mid-40s around the bay and highs tomorrow, although we'll be getting more sunshine we'll still see a sea breeze and this will keep temperatures on the cooler side, a little bit warmer compared to today, but the real warm-up starts on tuesday. so 57 in san francisco, 59 in oakland, 61 in san jose. here's the accuweather seven- day forecast. so our drying trend starts tomorrow and then we warm up much brighter sunshine tuesday, wednesday, thursday and friday. check out inland temperatures in the mid-80s through the middle part of the week. around the bay low to mid-70s and at the beaches low 60s and then a little bit of some slight cooling but not too much change for next weekend. so you can put the umbrellas away, not that we needed it much today, dion, but we need the sunscreen and sunglasses. >> what a roller coaster. thanks. well, it is not just film's biggest night, but also
