"the associated press" says the new ban will bar people from the same seven countries as the first badly written plan. but key difference is it is going to allow people who have already been approved to travel

here. keep in mind people from the countries have always been subject to extreme vetting. some wait more than 10 years. the last ban kept out people with the legitimate visas and kept out only legal residents with green cards. the new ban presumably will not. sam and laura, we have not seen the final product, but this is a huge point. if you add all of this criteria today, the new ban describes something we have been doing for years. all right. the new ban like the old ban. >> scott will be looking at the president's tweets, executive orders and speeches throughout the first 100 days. scott would like to hear from you. share your thoughts with him on twitter. no ban on interacting with wildlife, at least not in this scenario. check it out.

will have passing showers. a little bit of a break. and then the rain returns once again. even at 4:30, 6:30, a chance of showers. it will become few and far between variety. later this evening, clearing skies and some cooler temperatures dropping in. additional rainfall may reach close to half an inch for spots across the east bay. livermore. you could see another three-quarters of an inch. many all icons show storm reports. we have had 34 reports of flooding or wind damage across the bay area. recently we haven't seen much on of that. still lingering showers today. the next storm moving in.
