cloudy, overcast skies, some pockets of drizzle from time to time. and then by wednesday we are tracking some evening rain showers. it will be a level one on the storm impact scale. a closer look at that. level one reggie coming up about seven minutes. >> thank you drew taking a e on muni for free. the special offer this week for grade school students in san francisco. how they can even take part in a muni inspired art contest. >> plus, an investigation into tiktok and reddit in the uk. a closer look at the how the social media apps uses the personal data of children, and the recommendations that could be put into place. >> turbulence over texas. the scare on united airlines flight that

right now. and this is one of several bay area locations that was battered by waves over the weekend. now we can still hear those waves crashing into the seawall here behind us. even though the national weather service has canceled the high surf advisory. now, further up north on the sonoma county coast, the sheriff's department says the body of a man who was swept into the ocean over the weekend has been recovered at gerstle cove campground, near fort ross sunday morning. officials say the man was standing on rocks near the shore when he got swept into the ocean by a crashing wave at ocean beach in san francisco. one fire captain is now warning folks to beware of dangerous surf and rogue waves. >> inexperienced swimmers, inexperienced surfers need to be very aware of these conditions, and it is our recommendation to stay out of the water at this time and come back on a day when it's a little more calm. >> capitola closed its beach and wharf saturday for several hours because of the high surf. police

said numerous people had to be rescued but no injuries were reported. now that high surf advisory that was in place until 9:00 tonight has since been canceled. that was canceled right before 4:00 this morning. but still a very good reminder to useand at waco regional airport after experiencing turbulence on its way from springfield, missouri, during a strong storm. there were 28 people on board the flight. five were taken to nearby hospital. several other flights were diverted to the airport because of the storm system. sunday's flight diversions come amid a string of incidents involving aircraft safety in recent weeks. >> in the east bay. a shooting outside a restaurant left four people hurt over the weekend, and this morning the shooter is still out there. the shooting happened just before 11 saturday night at the grill by mis g hig. police say three people were taken to the hospital by ambulance. a fourth person showed up to an emergency room on their own. and the motive here is under investigation. tiktok is also under investigation. the app is facing a probe by the uk's data

protection watchdog. investigators want to know if its algorithm is sending harmful content to kids. the watchdog is also looking into reddit and the online image sharing website imgur for the same reason. both of those companies are based in san francisco. >> and back to hollywood's biggest night. now a theater in the east bay created the perfect spot for watching the oscars last night. the orinda theater invited their community to watch the award show on the big screen. they had snacks, trivia prizes and discussions led by movie critic dan wall during commercial breaks. >> first of all, i did not expect a good oscar show. i'm not really a conan o'brien. i mean, i know him and i've watched him and i've even met him, but i just didn't think it was going to happen. and he was funny. it was well written. it moved. it had production numbers. thank you god. >> well, she had an honest review. i like that. >> and a spirited one. >> yes. and one of the moments that hit home for people in orinda was during sean baker's

acceptance speech. he advocated for getting both fans and distributors to support movie theaters, and the experience of seeing movies on the big screen. that got a lot of applause last night. >> i think that the opening with ariana grande and cynthia erivoh is one of the best oscar openings that i've seen. >> so far. it was really beautiful the way it was done. yeah. >> when cynthia started singing home from the wiz, that's what really took me out, because i didn't expect that to happen. and that was really a genius production move. >> can't go wrong with somewhere over the rainbow. you really can't. >> no no. >> no no. and her dress with the shoe on the back. was just spectacular. loved it. yeah. >> the whole thing was really cool. i also loved how they focused on the orchestra. they put them in the middle instead of, like, hiding them below the stage now. and it was cool to see them all from time to time. >> yeah. speaking of their outfits, i loved how they had the green dress and the pink dress earlier in the night. you know, so gorgeous on the red carpet. >> yeah. well done. love. >> it was the only time they would be on stage for the rest of the show. but we'll take it.

>> yeah. >> they thought so. this morning. here's a look outside from our east bay hills camera. you can see we do have calm conditions. so today we will be bright, brisk, with some evening clouds rolling in tomorrow and wednesday it's pretty cloudy both days with some pockets of drizzle. and then thursday and friday. sunny skies are back in the forecast, so this morning we do expect fairly bright skies out there. it is pretty chilly through about 9 a.m. in the 40s, and then we'll climb into the 50s. so mostly sunny today. but it is cool for march. upper 50s to around 60 degrees for daytime highs. overnight tonight you'll notice a lot of cloud cover. we will find temperatures mainly in the 40s as we head into tuesday. let's go on future weather. show you hour by hour today. it is beautiful. it is bright. late this evening. the clouds roll in ahead of that front that will move through on wednesday. so here you look at tuesday. tuesday morning it's just overcast, some pockets of drizzle. there's really nothing uniform. but from time to time you may find some mist and drizzle in your neighborhood. on tuesday, it's likely wednesday. we have our best chance of any light showers in the evening. this is when

the front really crosses through. so by wednesday evening, just a light shower. minimal rainfall coming with this front. in fact, look at the rainfall totals. we're looking at a 10th of an inch at best on wednesday evening as this front moves through. so there's not a lot of moisture that this system has to work with, but it does keep temperatures on the cool side for much of the week. so here's a look at future tracker the middle part of the week. we're still mainly stuck in the mid 50s to around 60 degrees. similar story on thursday. we will likely see by the end of the week and into the upcoming weekend. a little bit warmer air moving in, but nothing like we experienced last week where temperatures were in the 70s and 80s. temperatures stay pretty close to average for the next seven days. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. bright and brisk today. cloudy with some drizzle on tuesday. an evening. chance of rain on wednesday. then we'll brighten up those skies. thursday friday saturday. rain back here likely on sunday. also, daylight saving time begins as clocks go forward. one hour on sunday. guys. >> just around the corner. thank you drew. well coming up the seven things to know

you're watching abc seven mornings live. >> watching a film in the theater with an audience is an experience. we can laugh together, cry together, scream and fright together, perhaps sit in devastated silence together. and in a time in which the world can feel very divided. this is more important than ever. >> that was the director of honora, who was up on that stage more than i think, more than conan. i mean, it was really amazing. now a 530, it is all about the oscars history made at the big award show in hollywood.

the upper 50s to around 60 degrees. let's check in with sue hall. see the commute gg on this monday. >> good morning drew. good morning everyone. we do have high winds, especially here on the bay bridge. so just a heads up at the signs coming over the waldo grade towards the golden gate bridge. say heavy fog. there is none. so disregard those signs. don't always believe what you read this morning. we've got a nice looking commute headed on the corridor from hercules all the way into san francisco, and no metering lights here at the bay bridge, nor at the richmond san rafael. of course, there are no metering lights there, but it's pretty light getting across the span. we've got an eight minute drive and take a look at tracy up and over the altamont, where again, we do have high winds. the speeds are about about 20 miles an hour. first reports of an accident. we've got 87 north at 101 north blocking the right lane. so heads up. we're going to see a little bit of a backup there. building. >> thank you sue. it was a big night in hollywood. the

2025 oscars are a wrap. and one of the big winners. last night, actor kieran culkin, he took home the oscar for best supporting actor, then delivered a speech that managed to honor his wife and hold her to a major promise. >> about a year ago, i was in a stage like this and i very stupidly, publicly said that i want a third kid from her because she said if i won the award, i would she would give me the kid uh- turns out she said that cause she didn't think i was going to win. but after the show, we were walking through a parking lot. she's holding the emmy. we're trying to find her car. emily, you were there. so you're a witness. and she goes, oh, god, i did say that. i guess i owe you a third kid. and i turned to her and i said, really, i want for. and she turned to me. i swear to god, this happened just over a year ago. she said, i will give you four when you win an oscar. then i just have this to say to you. jazz, love of my life, ye of little faith. no pressure, i love you. i'm really sorry i did this again. and let's get

prominent for one of those five minute slots, which is why you hear me screaming for her for almost the entire duration of that five minutes. did she come over? no, i don't know why i thought bay area would get her because it got everyone else. but i just laugh because my very first person of the night was mario lopez. he was coming down immediately. i was like, he just played pickleball in san francisco. i looked at him, i said, pickleball, pickleball, san francisco, pickleball. and he was like, yeah. >> i did. >> i did play pickleball in san francisco. i was like, wonderful, come over here. but i asked him about that as well. he loved the bay area. he talked all about that. he really also made the prediction that honora was going to sweep. yeah. and i mean, he was right. he doesn't need to buy lotto. i mean, i'm sure that he's made of money, but, hey. >> well. >> this would be the time. >> yeah. and he's been doing this for a long time, so i think he knows the game. speaking of that, i was curious. did you see anyone else who had a great game

on the red carpet? like, was there anyone else who was pulling a stunt that you thought, oh, that's a good one for next year? >> no, i was by far ahead of everyone. >> oh, it was fantastic. >> i was like, no, i'm not even kidding. it's so funny because the news when people who were with us, they ended up like recording me because i, you know, was i gave it until the very last minute when they kind of rushed us off of the red carpet. and by then, all of the other abc affiliate reporters were walking down and i saw george pinocchio. and at that point i was like, george, comment. george, george. >> george. >> pinocchio, come on. and he was like, i'm not giving comments, amanda. >> and i'm like, okay, well, you know what? i'm gonna keep trying. >> this is why i'm here. they sent me down here and i'm going to i'm going to work every single minute of it. >> amanda i can't believe demi when you said demi, it's amanda that she did not turn around and say, amanda, i love that, though, that you. >> were just going at that. yeah. and i think at that point

of us. so for early march that is a couple of degrees below average. typically we're in the mid 60s this time of the year. overnight tonight we will find clouds rolling back in. and overnight lows will be in the 40s. so here's future weather. let's plan the next couple of days. today is beautiful. it's bright out there. temperatures a little bit below average. then tomorrow the clouds are here and there you find just some spotty drizzle throughout the morning and afternoon. there's nothing uniform, but it will be damp from time to time in spots. then on wednesday, the front is going to move through here in the evening, and that's when we have the best chance of finding light rain in the forecast throughout the week. so we'll find rainfall totals. i mean, very limited. that's why it's level one on wednesday. i mean, rainfall totals a 10th of an inch at best. so this is a system that is really moisture starved as it moves through here. but it will keep temperatures for much of the week kind of at or just slightly below average. so here's wednesday. look at thursday. it's a similar story a little bit of a warm up as we head into the upcoming weekend. so here's the accuweather seven day forecast. bright and brisk

today. clouds roll back in here tomorrow with some drizzle from time to time. now. wednesday. the cold front will move through us in the evening and that's the best chance of finding any light rain showers. but it moves through fast. so by thursday sunshine is back. we'll keep it bright friday and saturday and then another chance of rain on sunday. but that's also when daylight saving time begins. that means our clocks go forward one hour early sunday morning guys. >> thank you joe. coming up new at six. >> update delay. the reason apple has postponed an upgrade for siri. >> but first, scary moments on a freeway in the east bay. take a look at the scene showing a charred bus that caught fire. what we're learning abou
