5:05 am
>> wow. truly heartbreaking. a link to the family's gofundme is over on our website, abc seven news.com, and there will also be a vigil in bodega bay next weekend. we'll keep you posted on that. well, days after election night, the results are now final in two closely watched recall elections. first, pamela price has been ousted as alameda county district attorney, 65% of voters approved that recall effort. critics said price's progressive reform platform was too soft on criminals and led to a spike in crime. and the mayor of oakland is out as well. 65% of voters in oakland said yes to a recall of mayor shang tao, the president of the oakland city council will now step in as interim mayor until a special election can be held, likely in april. tao said she is committing to a smooth transition. she has been harshly criticized for several of oakland's main issues, including the crime rate. she issued the following statement in response
5:06 am
to the recall vote, thanking oakland citizens, saying, quote, it was my goal to make oakland safer, cleaner, and more vibrant. i am proud of what we accomplished together. we brought crime down dramatically across the board for the first time in over a decade, oakland went over a month without a single murder. our work literally saved lives. now, congresswoman barbara lee is reflecting on the accomplishments during her time representing california's 12th district. she sat down with her newly elected replacement, lateefah simon, to talk about that legacy and the future for her district. they spoke about the fighting for the rights of women of color and various international aid, plus a gesture welcoming simon into the position. lee passed her literal baton, like ron dellums passed to lee back when he retired from congress in 1998. alameda county officials are still way behind in counting election ballots, but they are saying they're
5:07 am
making progress only about half of the ballots cast in the county have been processed so far. the county registrar of voters says there are still about 370,000 ballots left to be processed. >> and we're given until the beginning of december to certify the election. we have no there's no risk that we're going to be having any issues with getting this election certified. i do recognize that people are anxious, especially with some of the high profile races that we have. >> county officials plan to work through the weekend and monday's veteran's day holiday. according to data from the secretary of state this year, alameda is by far the slowest at counting ballots of the ten most populous counties in california. in san francisco, a political newcomer will soon be at the helm of city hall. nonprofit founder and levi strauss heir daniel lurie will be the city's first elected mayor in a century. with no governing experience, he officially declared victory to supporters at a rally and shared
5:08 am

5:09 am
potential tourist attraction, a major part of her push for reelection and now that she's lost, are all hopes for pandas lost, too? or will mayor elect daniel lurie continue the push? >> you know, the pandas are kind of an interesting illustration of the challenge of being mayor of san francisco. on one hand, people really like them and they bring a lot of attention. on the other hand, people say they're frivolous and it's a waste of money. but, you know, san francisco is supposed to be attracting people. and this is one of the ways to attract it. >> the pandas coming with a multi-million dollar price tag. breed was trying to raise $25 million needed to build a new panda enclosure at the san francisco zoo. >> i'm pro panda loving the pandas, but with all of the dangerous things that are going on with the zoo, i think we should hold off on the pandas. >> the zoo last month, facing a scathing report, the san francisco animal control and welfare commission saying many of its enclosures are extremely outdated. >> i also think we have a lot of other problems to solve before bringing the pandas over. like
5:10 am
every single thing that our mayor elect ran on, it's an opportunity to learn about pandas and children love to see live animals, so why not? >> hey, listen, anything to get more people to the city, right? >> if you see a panda, it's very cute, so i'm pretty sure it will track a lot of people coming from other cities. >> as for the incoming mayor, he says, i don't know the status of all the issues that are going on at the zoo. >> if it's doable, great. >> telling us he plans on getting up to speed before taking office. >> i will talk with mayor breed and her team and see where we are with that. you know, anything that brings tourism to our great city we should be looking at. >> tara campbell, abc seven news. >> all right, so it sounds like more to come on those pandas. how's it looking out there, lisa? >> well, we have some clouds, but temperatures still manage to drop off into the 30s in our inland valleys. and cloud cover.

5:16 am
newsom says it's necessary to maintain public safety following tuesday's election, but the plan is not without criticism. >> the chp has a terrible record in terms of being racially biased. people of color voters of color are more likely to be stopped, and when they are stopped, they're more likely to be assaulted. i don't know if chp has to be the answer, but at a moment when oakland pd is performing so poorly, it leaves the governor with not that many choices. >> newsom says officers are making progress against crime in the east bay. chp says officers have arrested nearly 1200 suspects since february. the port of oakland is getting million from the environmental protection agency. the grant will help decarbonize the port and help tenants switch to zero emission alternatives. congresswoman barbara lee says this will also help the climate and benefit people living near the port. >> not for too long. low income neighborhoods and communities of color near the port have had to
5:17 am
bear the brunt of pollution and health risks that come with it. so this investment is about reversing these inequities, reversing them by bringing cleaner air and better health outcomes. >> lee emphasized the urgent need, citing president elect trump's opposition to switching to renewable energy. well, californians are going to be hit with a gas price increase of $0.65 per gallon. the state's air resources board voted in favor of policy this policy that is to reduce emissions and improve air quality. the idea is to raise the price to reduce demand for gas, to reduce the use of fossil fuels long term. more than 100 people showed up for public comment, and as you can imagine, there was some back and forth at this hearing. >> what we have before us is not perfect. it has driven notable investments into cleaner alternatives. this policy is key to the ev transition and ev
5:18 am
infrastructure. >> you know, clearly going to have an impact on really poor communities. >> the amendments aim for a 30% cut to greenhouse gas emissions by year 2030, and 90% by 2045, and they go into effect next year. happening right now in san francisco, caltrans is continuing repairing emergency barriers on highway 101 and 80. work started last night. the southbound 101 connector at i-80 is closed, as well as the southbound 101 on ramp from 10th street and bryant. the roads will reopen monday at 9 a.m. across the bay now, oakland zoo's glow fairy is back. glow fairy opened last night for the first time this season. and take a look. look how neat this looks this year. there are hundreds of new animal lanterns to light up the zoo. you see all the colors circulating the area. this event goes through select nights through january 26th, and you
5:19 am
can get tickets on the zoo's website. what a beautiful night to do it all clear across the bay. but what's in store for the rest of the weekend? lisa. >> well, we still have the really cold temperatures. 35 santa rosa. we have 39 petaluma with a wind chill and all the way up to 51 in san francisco. so big variety and temperatures just slightly cooler. the next couple of days as we add in some cloud cover and our ridge begins to break down. a cold front sweeping through the bay area on monday, and then looking at some unsettled weather as we go through the rest of the workweek. so. live doppler seven. right now it looks like we're going to see a big storm. it won't be a big one. but you know, we still are looking at relative humidity just at about 22% from mount tam to mount diablo and ben lomond. so still quite dry. upper elevations 37 in novato and fairfield with 47 in oakland. you see that? 35 santa rosa, 48, in san jose. sparkling view from our sutro tower camera. so the weekend
5:20 am
weather featuring more clouds, a few sprinkles now and again at the coast for monday. veterans day, wet, breezy and cooler. and then by the middle of the week, we're looking at occasional drizzle. and the verdict is still out. whether or not we're going to add to the rainfall totals come wednesday through friday. it's a level one system on monday, light to moderate rain, slippery roads, the winds will pick up. they'll be gusty at times, but as we go through the next several days, you'll notice the clouds thin out throughout the day today, certainly in the south bay. so by the afternoon this is sunday morning. we've got more clouds, but we'll call it partly cloudy today. increasing clouds on sunday. this is sunday night and then into early monday. you'll notice a few sprinkles and the morning commute could be wet in the north bay. but by 11:00 the system still looking like it's hung up to the north and getting over into the east bay. by the middle of the afternoon and the south bay and then clearing on out for the evening commute. so
5:21 am
rainfall estimates at this point feature pretty general totals from about a quarter of an inch to a third of an inch in spots. you can see that 0.32 in fremont, maybe a little bit more than that in yountville in santa rosa. so picking this up on the monday system, you can see we've got rain here, snow in the mountains and then stopping this on wednesday. not all the models are buying this, but it looks like a progressive flow where we could see a little bit more rain as we get into the end of the workweek. in terms of snow, mainly in the higher elevations, but still picking up anywhere from two to about five inches through your monday afternoon and evening. today, 66 downtown. that's average 67 in oakland with some low 70s where the sun is out for a little longer in san jose and the accuweather seven day forecast. so we've got increasing clouds, drizzle perhaps along the coast tomorrow with 60s to near 70. level one system on monday, the winds kick up and the rain arrives with partly cloudy skies on tuesday.

systems, eventually flirting with the bay area and then giving us some rain on monday. but the details haven't really been firmly aligned as to what's going to happen this second half of the workweek. so really, things are changing in our favor with increased relative humidity, that onshore flow, and
5:48 am
eventually some rain. it is 51 san francisco. look at that 37. half moon bay 36, in danville. good morning to you with more mid 30s. santa rosa 43 in vallejo. so with that dry air still in place, it is awfully cold out there for the weekend though. more cloud cover. a few sprinkles now and again, mainly at the shoreline. by monday we bring in our level one system for veterans day. it will be wet. the winds will kick up, it will be a cooler day, and then by the middle of the week, we have some drizzle at the coast and you'll see that we looks like we have more opportunities for rain, but both forecast models are just kind of not in agreement with that. so we'll show you that in a moment. level one system light to moderate rain on monday. slippery roads, breezy to gusty winds at times. and you'll see the timeline on this, which should be after the morning commute. this is your saturday. partly cloudy skies saturday night. you'll notice with the clouds maybe keeping the temperatures up. not as cold
5:49 am
as we have been sunday morning. more clouds in the north bay sunday afternoon. we're looking at partly to mostly cloudy skies into monday morning. here's the commute. if you're working, you'll notice a few areas of drizzle 6:00 and then the front pushing through the north bay for the first half of the day, and then the second half of the day sinking to the south. and east. and looking at some of those downpours throughout the afternoon could be into the evening commute. for some of you, portions of the peninsula and south bay into monday. back to partly cloudy skies. so rainfall totals pretty general here with anywhere from about a quarter to a third of an inch. you see higher amounts to the north of us, so this would be a nice change, a good amount, but certainly wouldn't put an end to the rainy season. but if these systems do verify, that would certainly help us out. so this is the monday system. and then the partly cloudy skies on tuesday stopping this late wednesday it looks like another system. and then into thursday
5:50 am
and friday, this one model wants to bring in more rain sierra snow monday night anywhere from 2 to 5in for kirkwood. highs today partly cloudy 67. near average in oakland. low 70s for livermore and san jose with mid and upper 60s from napa to santa rosa. the accuweather seven day forecast increasing clouds to partly cloudy conditions for today and tomorrow. level one system for the holiday tuesday. we're dry. wednesday partly cloudy. could see some rain into late wednesday and thursday and then friday could see another chance of showers. stephanie. >> all right lisa thank you. on the court now the warriors made a stop in cleveland last night to try and extend their five game win streak. but it did not go well. here's abc seven news sports director larry beil. >> good morning everybody. after beating the defending world champs in boston, the warriors continued their road trip facing old friend kenny atkinson, who has the cleveland cavaliers undefeated coming in with a90
