-- ama: across highway nine, highway one it is dicey. from san mateo to wellston avenue, south city pigot into the east bay, san leandro, hayward. you are getting heavy rain right now because a low pressure system lever one storm off the bay area coast is starting to lift a little bit as it's moving toward the south. the next 24 hours, here's what you can expect. a wet morning commute. showers will continue to wrap around for the evening commute. be prepared. use caution. possibly a slower commute and pockets of low visibility ahead. i will be back with a closer look at the forecast. ama: thank you. dan: let's get back to that game one heartbreaker for the golden state warriors. came so close to a win. ama: right down to the final seconds. chris alvarez is live at chase center where the dubs were just

a shot away. reporter: yeah. it was a really good game. entertaining. just like the last series against sacramento, the warriors started out with a loss in game one. how it went from chase center. lebron and steph curry sharing a moment there. warriors ended the night with anthony davis leading the lakers. he's a problem. l.a. pushed them. steph curry scored a team-high 27. that tied the game. those will be the final points the warriors scored. jordan poole missed that d3 with a chance to tie a tough shot there. >> the game. you can go through tape and you can talk about strategy but you have to feel the game and the personnel. i thought 80 had a great game.

>> road teams will get some games. we will have to make sure we do that and return the favor. we all want home court. we have to protect home next aim -- game. but also come in this weekend and go down there and get one back. reporter: game to is thursday right here at chase. a special 6:00 start time on espn. the scene shifts to l.a. for game three saturday right here on abc seven. the warriors, you would like to win. you don't want to go down 2-0. it was the reverse last time. momentum is always key in the series. the warriors trying to get one before they get to l.a.. back to you guys in the studio. ama: it's early but we don't want to get far behind. thanks. dan: it's close. here's a look at the series ahead. came to from chase center is thursday at 6:00.

there was the little boy from georgia. he just wanted to see -- see steph curry in the warriors. >> i'm from atlanta. >> we literally got here last night on the redeye. we are headed back right after the game. >> along fight -- flight but these warriors flew in from australia. how did they do it? >> you book your tickets. you hope for the best. you have major anxiety for the whole week of the playoffs. then we fly home on saturday night. we watch game six in australia. get on the plane for 14 hours. get a greyhound bus at 6:00 in the morning. >> now time for this one. >> it is so exciting. it is bucket list stuff. reporter: while the warriors did lose, next game is thursday. >> i think they need to step it up and hopefully we win on thursday. it's not over. we still have six more games. reporter: j.r. stone, abc7news.

ama: we are giving you all the warriors content you can feast on with our abc7news bay area and instagram facebook pages. you can post or share any event to your profile to show off that pride. dan: let's get into tonight's abc 7 deep dive at 11:00. there's one local issue dominating the headlines tonight that we feel deserves a much closer look. we are keying in on the state of san francisco. a constant source of discussion and debates. another stunning blow to the city's downtown core. a name brand when you think shopping in san francisco but nordstrom is closing both of its stores in the city citing difficult conditions. the westfield mall location will close in august. it's been the anchor store in the mall for more than 35 years. the nordstrom rack on market in fifth will close in july. we put together this map to give

you a better idea of the other recent reporters in terms of stores. the question that matters here, why and what if anything can be fixed? some including officials from the westfield mall are squarely blaming crime and safety as the reason for the closure. the whole foods that announced a temporary closure on market market street last month also cited worker safety. tonight, the national retail federation is telling us nordstrom's strategy follows recent customer trends with such high inflation. less of a high-end store and more budget friendly options. >> they will start trading down. if eggs cost too much, they will buy something different. dan: nordstrom's is closing the two downtown stores. it's opening 20 new nordstrom rack discount stores including one in pinole. that is something to keep in mind. no matter how you look at it, this is a serious loss for residents, employees, and other

small businesses. i want to bring in tim johns who is looking closely into what this loss what's -- will actually mean. reporter: no matter what the reason for the closure, it got a lot of people talking today. not just about nordstrom itself but also about downtown san francisco as a whole and our local bay area economy. another day, another store closure in downtown san francisco. this time, nordstrom announcing tuesday that it will close two of its locations. the news fueling the debate over the state of the city center and its impact on our local economy. >> san francisco's downtown was living off tech, office, tourism, and retail. reporter: those days seem to be over for now. by several metrics, san francisco has been one of the slowest cities to recover from the pandemic. >> the offices are empty and the retail is getting empty. it won't be easy to get somebody to come in and take the space. reporter: many in the business

community are urging city leaders to tackle issues like crime and homelessness head-on. >> we need to invest to make downtown safe, clean, welcoming to all people. we need to do that now. reporter: they say the city needs a thriving irving core. it's not just big brand stores that are hurting. some local businesses like old hardware nears a nordstrom location say they've also been impacted. >> the downtown store on 4th street lost about 60% of its business. reporter: it's not all bad news. ikea recently announced they are opening a brand-new store not far away from the downtown nordstrom. given the amount of wealth and innovation happening around the bay area, several business leaders say despite the tough times now, they are confident san francisco will bounce back. >> so much going for us. the natural beauty. incredible talent in the workforce here. it's truly an incredible place

to live and work. reporter: it is worth noting that ikea is just one of several companies that's expanding or looking to expand here in san francisco and the bay area. i've been speaking with several ceos who say they believe in the city and that this rough pass -- patch is just a transition. abc7news. dan: thank you so much. if you want to dive deeper into the story, had to abc7news.com. we've interact -- included map of store closures along with the full statements from westfield and nordstrom. ama: new development in the deadly shooting by a security guard at the san francisco walgreens area -- walgreens. aaron peskin is planning to ask district attorney brooke jenkins to reconsider the case. according to the chronicle, he said that he was deeply concerned about jenkins decision not to file charges. the concerns are based on conversations he's had with law enforcement.

eggs in standing water which hatch larva. they will use the nonresidential areas. experts say once mosquitoes are adults, they are difficult to control. >> this material is so friendly. animals. reporter: they can access remote areas. they are faster, accurate, and have less of an impact on habitat. >> this drone is capable of handling a max payload of 40 pounds. reporter: one of the diseases as west nile virus. the county says they are being proactive but they need everybody's help. they are encouraging residents to get rid of any kind of standing water where mosquitoes can reproduce. we spoke with san jose resident dailies auto who said her family is installing new screen doors. >> the ones we had were open and shut. we are doing the magnetic ones.
