orinda and perhaps walnut creek, continuing to see the moderate rain push through the area further out to the east, san ramon, i should say, south 680. it's lighter rain. and as we get up to the north bay, it's been scattered, but still some downpours from where sweep is situated. and saint helena there, yountville back towards the coast, some moderate rain moving into lagunitas and shortly highway one into novato. so it continues throughout the day even though the heaviest pushed on through maybe while you were sleeping. there's a look at our rain totals over two inches in novato and kentfield napa 0.83. san francisco now over an inch. this is a 24 hour totals closing in on a third of an inch in concord. more to come for you in orinda 0.62. our roof camera pretty gray out there and foggy 58. san francisco 59 in mountain view and looking at our exploratorium camera where we'll see plenty of cloud cover late day sun 58. santa rosa, 57 and

concord and the cloud cover. quiet looking pier 39, very gray out there. so some scattered downpours continue throughout the afternoon and those showers will take us right on through about 4 or 5:00. and then a dry week ahead. so hour by hour, our high resolution continue to pick up on a few scattered showers coming back into play by about 11:00 in the north bay. the rest of us just cloudy. but throughout the afternoon, we'll continue to see some of the light scattered showers this is 230 in the afternoon. so it's not raining everywhere. but as we get towards five, 6:00, still rain will be returning to parts of the bay into the east bay, perhaps around 580. the south bay, and then it finally ends towards early sunday. so anywhere from a couple hundredths to about a quarter of an inch still to come throughout 11:00 tonight. and in the sierra nevada, it has been a warm system with some light rain in the sierra nevada, around truckee, 36 degrees. but

on the red carpet. storyteller spotlight. they talked about the inspiration and the magic behind

the visual masterpiece that pays homage to disney's legacy. so i look up at the stars to guide me. >> i wish and throw caution to every warning sign. >> which really celebrates the power of wishing that that passion that drives you in life. it's recognizing that the bigger the wish, sometimes, the harder the journey. and it's sort of celebrating that perseverance of character. >> i made a wish on a star on the star answered at the root of this story is about a girl who realized she has such a big dream and did not know how to go about it. >> and i look to this story. there's such similarity with what i was going through in the moment of deciding that i should make a choice and jump into this pursuit of career in art. and i have to find the courage. three, two, one. usher i'm here.

>> i'm here. >> just i feel that wish is the story that is universal and really embraces individuality, mouth drooping. >> i feel like scooping. so the inspiration behind aisha's costume is her personality. she is a bright young woman who is very hopeful and we also want to highlight her her background silhouettes with a little bit of accent of where we come from. >> what are you hiding? nothing >> one of my favorite things about aisha is that she is very relatable and unapologetically herself, just like ariana dubose , who was a huge influence in the character for most of these wishes, will never be granted. >> yet i still protect them like all the others. >> important for all of us to have a voice, right? because i think that's what makes storytelling so rich in animation. it's hundreds of people putting so much effort and a little piece of themselves into this. one of the biggest

part of wish for us is, is stories that that give you a sense of possibility, wonder, joy, the playfulness of that. >> and that's foundational to disney. and then to wrap that all up into the wishing upon a star to bring the passion of wishing to life, that is something that i'm really excited to share with audiences. hey hi. hey >> hi. >> and which debuts in theaters on november 22nd. disney is a parent company of abc seven. happening tonight, formula one's las vegas grand prix. it is the first f1 race to ever be held in sin city. drivers will hit speeds topping 200mph. and right now we have a live look at the vegas sphere this morning. racers will weave past the venetian and caesars palace and then the bellagio. ferrari's charles leclerc took pole position in a practice session

last night. so a lot of excitement about that. >> yeah, and about the weather, too. where we've had some really heavy downpours right now into the east bay. here's a look overall at what happened in the past couple of hours. and in the south bay, the heaviest rain south of san jose around watsonville, further to the north, you can see scattered light rain from san jose and just east of oakland there towards orinda highway 24 and highway 13. some heavier downpours. watch out, walnut creek, pleasant hill, you'll be getting some heavier rain and as we look at the north bay, you can see it is certainly wet out there. so the accuweather seven day forecast keeps us with this level one system today. lighter showers but still with us throughout the afternoon. >> and i guess if you want to do anything outdoors tomorrow is probably a better day. >> yeah. or today it's on and off. keep the rain gear with you. >> all right. thank you so much, lisa. and thank you all so much for watching. we'll be back here at 8:00 this morning.

but we need an atm from our bank unless you want to spend a small fortune in fees. uh, no, thank you. banking with us means more fee-free atms than the two largest us banks combined. well, that would be convenient but there is no b-m-o here. ah, you can just call us bee-mo, and there is now. you know what else is convenient? mobile banking that makes it easy to track your goals and manage your money get out of town. but we... just got here. when a bank helps you get and stay ahead. that's the bmo effect. ♪ bmo ♪
