cloud cover with temperatures cool in the mid 50s. by 10:00 noontime, we're dry upper 50s. and then you can see by two, 3:00, maybe some rain in the far north bay. it's after 5:00 when the front slips to the south. 7:00 rain on the peninsula. and we're talking just under 5/100. so it's not a big deal, not a big rainmaker. we will have many other opportunities. even the word atmospheric river coming into play for the second half of the upcoming workweek. stephanie. >> all right, lisa, thank you. you can stay with abc seven news for the latest information. as these conditions change over the next few days, you can track the cold temperatures and the rain with the same live doppler. seven lisa and our weather team use. it's available at abc7 news.com/weather. a vigil was held to pray for a father who went fishing and never came home. he was one of six people thrown overboard when a boat capsized during a crabbing trip in bodega bay. two weeks ago. only one person survived. a 13 year old boy. abc seven news

have some partial lane closures, but the work should be done by december. a long awaited and controversial costco is set to open its doors in pleasanton. the store, near the stoneridge shopping center at the five 8680 interchange, will open the day before thanksgiving. that's one of the busiest days, of course, for grocery stores and construction of this store was held up by legal challenges from local residents. they said it would negatively impact air quality and traffic. city leaders, though, argue the store will provide a big boost to local sales tax revenue. there have been debates over opening a costco in the west part of the city, with hundreds of neighbors writing to san jose city council against it. the city council did approve those plans, though, three weeks ago, and in the north bay, napa opened its first costco last month. a day of giving across the bay area as scouts are teaming up with local food banks for the annual scouting for food collection

drive to help families this holiday season. abc seven news reporter cornell bernard has a look from the north bay. >> a steady stream of food donations rolling in outside the san francisco marin food bank warehouse in san rafael. local scouts are doing the heavy lifting and collecting. >> well, it's always really like moving to see. and i think that every year i've done this, it just means a little bit more, especially around the holiday season. you see, like, i mean, the sheer amount of food that we have today and it's just like, wow, like to think about all the people that's going to help. >> with less than two weeks before thanksgiving, the scouting for food annual collection drive is more important than ever. this holiday season, with 1 in 5 californians at risk of food insecurity. >> the needs a little bit greater now, even post pandemic. this is a critical time of year for donations going into the holidays. like you said, everybody's in need of some additional support. >> roman says the food bank is serving more than 50,000 households across san francisco and marin weekly. last week, scouts left door hangers on

homes asking for nonperishable food items. those donations were picked up on saturday. >> it's a great chance for them to kind of learn a little bit more about how people have food insecurity today, even despite our affluent uh- county last year. >> believe it or not, these scouts collected more than 28,000 pounds of food. the effort happening all across the bay area and in sonoma county. >> they struggle to get food. so it is it's good to help people. >> local girl scouts and nearly 200 volunteers are helping at the redwood empire food bank in santa rosa, collecting and sorting food donations. on this day of giving the food bank, there also says the need for food assistance is increasing and despite the scale of our operations, the demand for our services continues to grow at a rate that is outpacing the donations coming in to support us. scouts and a generous community doing their part to lend a hand. this holiday in the

north bay, cornell, bernard. abc seven news. >> on the peninsula now an unveiling for an interactive street art display in east palo alto. the event brought out families and the community to experience this tech to real life experiment. >> it's really important opportunity for youth in this city to be able to shape how it looks and feels, because they are the ones who are going to inherit it in the future. >> when they live here, as adults. >> and so now they get from a very young age to see the city evolve around artwork that they have created themselves. >> about 140 students were involved in creating this art project, which is on electrical boxes around the city. some made clay sculptures for claymation scenes and others made the base art and filmed it. musicians that is, provided the tunes and visitors can enjoy this come to life by scanning a qr code on their phone. in the area. all right. the holiday spirit is returning to san francisco's

union square. you may have seen it with the tree all lit up, mayor london breed announced winter wonderland, a series of events and attractions that brought out more than 1.5 million visitors last year. the big christmas tree at union square, of course, is a big hit, and the ice rink is already open and the spca's holiday windows with adoptable dogs and cats are also on display at macy's, a holiday favorite in the south bay is getting a new look for one night only. our media partners, the mercury news, reports the annual christmas in the park drive through light show in san jose will actually be converted to a bike through show on november 24th, next sunday. the show of lights, decor and holiday displays will be open to bike riders only. the usual drive through show starts thursday and runs through new year's day. all right. with this weather, it's starting to feel like christmas too. we got the rain and certainly the drop in temperatures, but you said this is a weaker system. yeah, this

one's really weak. >> once we get going on wednesday, things are going to get interesting around here. yeah. so we'll show that to you in just a moment. it's another cold start to the day. skies are clear. the clouds are coming later as well as the rain. and this will just set the stage for some weather system that will allow the everything to come together. and whether or not it is shifting further south, that will determine how much rain everyone is going to get across the bay area. so the focus for the week's rain will be in the north bay, but that is yet to be determined for sure. so we'll just put a broad brush point on that and have to fine tune it as it gets closer. here's a look right now at the rain in the pacific northwest. and as we get into your forecast headlines, we're looking at the scattered showers, a little bit of sunshine today and that rain coming in late in the day for the middle of the week, monday and tuesday we'll see a mix of clouds and sun. and then we'll be looking at the rain returning

on wednesday. it will be slightly warmer and also allowing for that rain shower activity to sort of stay with us right on through saturday. so here's a look at our advisories. we have the coastal flood advisory throughout the afternoon today and tomorrow where we have that minor flooding. and in fact, we've seen that along the bay shores . so keep that in mind if you are headed out for a drive or a jog or anything along those walking paths close to the water level one system today, it's a weak one. we're only talking a couple hundredths of an inch of rain, and when we see that shower activity and it moves through the south, the winds are going to pick up behind the system. it's going to be gusty for your monday. here's a look at the next couple of hours. and you'll notice that we have the cloud cover in place here throughout the afternoon. this is noontime and we're dry going through the rest of the day, you'll notice that it's 4 or 5:00 in the north bay when we have the shower activity, and then this continues to sink to the south. and the east. not much to it.

the winds kicking up out of the northwest behind it. this is monday and we're sunny and you can see maybe a few stray showers offshore into monday night. but monday and tuesday are our dry days. rainfall accumulation through sunday. looking at just a couple hundredths here you can see 2/100 there for oakland mountain view. so not a whole lot out there. even the niners game should be dry and cloudy in terms of the winds. check it out. we're looking at some very breezy conditions up to about 30 miles an hour. and that's with the cold front. and then it passes on through. here's a look at what's going to set up throughout the week ahead. so here's our dry conditions on tuesday. look at that rain arriving on wednesday. check it out. it stays in place on thursday. this is friday. so the atmosphere continues to allow for the jet stream, all the elements to come together and allow for this rain to perhaps sit in one spot. so focusing on the north bay and it could wobble to the south, bringing rain as far south as san jose.

but for today, cloudy skies 61. there in oakland you can see the rain holding off for much of the day. the accuweather seven day forecast level one system today. showers late sunshine tomorrow into tuesday. that mix of clouds and sun. and then for the rest of the week we're keeping it a level one as rain arrives or returns, stays unsettled and takes us through the early part of t breathe better in as little as two weeks. when you can breathe better, what isn't better? this is better. this is better. that's better. dupixent is an add on treatment for specific types of moderate to severe asthma. it works with your asthma medicine to help improve lung function. dupixent is not for sudden breathing problems. it's proven to help prevent asthma attacks. and doesn't that make things better? dupixent can cause allergic reactions that can be severe. tell your doctor right away if you have rash, chest pain, worsening shortness of breath, tingling or numbness in your limbs. tell your doctor about new or worsening joint aches and pain or a parasitic infection.

it's part of the city's new approach to the homeless crisis. a new program is mapping out where people are living in rvs to eventually set up zones where parking is not allowed. here's abc seven news anchor dan ashley. >> san jose is launching a new program that tracks where and how many rvs and lived in vehicles are parked on city streets. the staff took inventory and put the data on a map that residents can access. they found more than 900 oversize vehicles are likely occupied. we went to regatta lane and found these parked there. >> we have to enforce our laws. we have to hold people to a certain code of conduct. it is unacceptable whether you're housed or unhoused for your personal belongings to be blocking a sidewalk or out in traffic, creating a traffic hazard. >> the program is meant to identify which areas are affected the most, starting in 2025, the city will establish ten permanent and 30 temporary towaway zones. the hope is those areas can be cleaned up while car free. >> we can't have rv encampments

set up with a sense of permanence and just grow over time. >> we spoke with todd langton, executive director of the nonprofit agape silicon valley. >> the city and the county and the state. they do things backwards. they focus on. let's identify where the homeless are, where they live, and then let's abate them. >> langton questions this program and feels it may just exacerbate the problem. >> let's identify all these places where they cannot live, and we're going to kick them out with. we have no idea where they're going to go. where are they going to go, and somebody else's backyard. let's find a way to get those vehicles operable, help them get them registered, and then let's have a place for them to go park. the safe parking sites that the city and the county are proposing, they're way behind. >> next year, the city plans to open its second and largest safe parking site, which can take up to 85 vehicles off city streets. mayor mehan recognizes that's where some people can go. >> we don't have enough. but i also think there's an element of

fairness here. you know, if you run a small business, if you worked hard and bought your home, or if you're working hard and renting in a neighborhood, it is not fair that a that an rv encampment will be permanently in front of your home or your business. >> now, still to come this morning, joe biden in his last apex summit as president. what he discussed with world leaders, including ai, climate change and north korea and the improvements on the way for bart expected to enhance safety.

>> they're trying to make money. my problem is, why is our government enabling them? why is it officially sanctioned by the government? i don't understand the government doing it to their own citizens. >> it ought to be clearer and much more conspicuous. you are not on the government dmv website. >> consumer advocate robert harrell says the state should require companies like need tags to post prominent disclaimers. >> we're not the dmv website, and if we're being honest with you, you're going to pay a heck of a lot more. >> scores of californians posted complaints online and to seven on your side saying need tags led them to believe it's the dmv for one need. tags pays google to appear at the top of search results for the dmv. also, the need tags website says california dmv registration renewal in large type. it's not until checkout that consumers see the extra fees tacked onto their bills. >> the department of motor vehicles offers the same functions for nothing. why is

there a need tag? >> need tags? owner eddie marion could not be reached, but he has told us the company is committed to transparency and the website shows fees before payment. we asked dmv director steve gordon about the surge of complaints about the dmv partner. gordon did not respond directly, but in emails to seven on your side, a dmv spokesperson said the need tags website states it is not the dmv, but where there is some fine print there, but it's written in a font size that is considerably smaller than everything else on that page, and the page is designed to draw your eye to the other elements. as for hidden fees, the dmv said need tags does list them. but even if they knew about fees, consumers would have to scroll to the bottom of the website and click this button. it shows they will pay an extra $49 per car, or $100 for commercial plates and an array of smaller charges on top of the dmv fee.

>> i would argue that's a violation of california's upfront anti-drip pricing law. >> we asked the dmv, is any tags violating the state's own ban on hidden fees? the dmv told us to contact the department of justice. >> that is pretty unconscionable. and the state of california ought not be encouraging the very type of behavior that if we see it in the private sector, we would want to crack down on the dmv website is dmv dot ca.gov and you can also go to our website abc seven news.com/7 on your side for help with issues like this as well as other consumer problems. >> all right. how's it looking out there, elise? >> well, we're cloudy, we're dr, but we're going to see some sunshine to start out today. and then showers are coming in later on. here's a look at pier 39. so maybe about five 6:00 the front pushes through. and with that maybe 2/100. so we're talking very little amounts barely a level one system. but the second

half of the upcoming workweek. well that's a different story. we'll talk ♪ this year take the time to melt into your holiday moments with lindor. ♪ ♪ irresistibly smooth chocolate. from the lindt master chocolatier. my late father-in-law lit up a room, but his vision dimmed with age. he had amd. i didn't know it then, but it can progress to ga, an advanced form of the disease. his struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warning signs of ga, like: hazy or blurred vision, so it's hard to see fine details, colors that appear dull or washed out,

or trouble with low light that makes driving at night a real challenge. if you think you have ga, don't wait. treatments are available. ask a retina specialist about fda-approved treatments for ga and go to gawontwait.com i will never forget the picture that i have, ask a retina specialist about fda-approved treatments for ga i'm the only one that's not smiling. even though i'm with my close friends, i felt alone. i didn't feel pretty, i didn't feel confident. when i got invisalign, i built my confidence. it was the best investment that i could do.

piece of some action later on today. not much, but it will get the ground wet and favoring the coastal hills there. the mountains. it is 42, in san jose, 39 palo alto. and looking at those low 40s in concord. look at all the 30s here. so certainly chilly once again, 36 sonoma and 39 santa rosa. so another look out towards pier 39. scattered showers, some sun out there today. the front moves through later on. today. we are dry and breezy into monday. monday is sunnier than tuesday. tuesday we'll see more cloud cover and then the end of the week. wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday. that's where it gets pretty interesting. here's a look at our coastal flood advisory until 4:00

tomorrow. the king tides once again over six feet and getting close to seven feet at right before 1130 this morning. so the minor flooding there, the level one system today allowing for the slippery roadways anywhere from three 4:00 the north bay and then later on. so stopping this at 230, you can see up towards ukiah looking at a few showers. and then here it is 630 and you can see perhaps from marin, the coastline here, and then into the south bay. but look what time it is. it's late eight, 9:00 and the amounts will be almost negligible for many locations. there's monday, we're sunny. tuesday we get some cloud cover. we're dry. and then this is the next system that will allow for a lot of the energy, the moisture, to head to the north of us, but a decent amount to head into the north bay and perhaps points south. so here's a look at what we can expect today. anywhere from a couple hundredths to perhaps 5/100 on the peninsula. you can see down around santa clara that's not going to happen until late, and that's just about 1/100. here

are two forecast models i want you to see this takes us all the way through saturday. this is the european. the wetter model that wants to bring. saw that right over seven inches. as we add up the totals wednesday through saturday in santa rosa over three inches in san jose. and then this is the american model that is not as aggressive. 3.5in santa rosa, maybe an inch under an inch and a half san francisco and less than an inch here in san jose. so both models are trending wet. but coming wednesday, right on through saturday. but depending on where the jet stream shifts and how much it wobbles is going to determine, determine how much we get in terms of 3 to 7in in the north bay, anywhere from an inch to three inches in the south bay today 61 in oakland, cloudy skies look for upper 50s along the shoreline here so it will be dry throughout the bulk of the day. a few scattered showers early and then that front moves on through. looking at the

accuweather seven day forecast, we are dry for monday and tuesday. monday is the sunnier day, tuesday a mix of clouds and sun. and for right now we'll just put level one systems for wednesday, showing the unsettled weather thursday into friday and saturday. so stay tuned as we can pinpoint in finer detail rainfall totals as we get closer to the second half of the workweek. stephanie. >> all right. lisa. thank you. it has been a busy weekend in college football. all three bay area teams played home games this weekend. here's abc seven sports anchor chris alvarez. >> good morning. the san jose state spartans with a chance to play spoiler in the new 12 team college football playoff last night, hosting number 13 boise state, who would be guaranteed a spot in the new playoff if they win the mountain west. but a spartans win. definitely going to throw a wrench in boise state's plans. mascot wars but at the end of the day, all those two are pals. all right, spartans up 14. nothing early on. going for it on fourth and three near the goal line. trick past the linemen. but boise
