arrival on sunday night into monday and it's a long-term swell so we're going to have to keep a close eye on that one. now, microclimate highs for today, very comfortable, if you look outside of your window, you're probably -- depending on where you are -- you're probably going to notice a lot of beautiful skies. 43 degrees in the south bay. look at all those colors in the sky. peninsula right now also 43 degrees, 47 for the tri-valley, and san francisco, 47 degrees in the north bay right now. still a very cold 38 degrees. now, we are keeping a close eye on a couple of systems expected to make their arrival on monday but so far, that 24-hour temperature change, you can see a nice little drop in san jose. napa about 6 degrees colder and santa rosa about 8 degrees colder. so definitely notice a much chillier morning this afternoon. today's forecast, expect beautiful conditions, mostly clear skies, and look at these temperatures. we're actually slightly warmer, so trending on the warmer side. santa rosa, 66 degrees, so he

could -- oakland 60. all thanks to high pressure that's been dominating since yesterday. this is what we're looking out for as we head into sunday night and early monday morning. we've got that system that is sitting out to the pacific and this is what's expected to make its arrival as early as sunday overnight into monday. that's also what's expected to bring that swell for that mavericks contest. so, as soon as we hear an announcement, we're going to be, of course, making sure we post that. the doppler radar right now not showing a lot of activity just yet, which is great, because if you had any plans to be outside, not really expecting any rain through tomorrow, really just dry conditions. let's get a quick look at that rain outlook. your future cast for monday, if you notice, at about 5:00 a.m., we're seeing that early morning commute, really kick into high gear in terms of the rain. we're going to keep that rain lingering really all day long and then we get a heavy band of showers again monday night into tuesday. if you look right here at about 10:30 p.m., we start seeing a heavy band of showers all the way from the north bay down

towards the south bay as well. fast forward through wednesday and this is where we're going to catch a little bit of a break from the rain before we see the arrival of a second storm system, and that's expected to come in thursday morning. you can see widespread rain all the way through gilroy and in monterey area as well. thursday by about 1:00, the second storm system is also expected expected to bring a good amount of snow for the sierra. now, as we head into saturday, we see that that storm system is still kind of lingering and hanging around. as far as rain totals, as of right now, this storm system doesn't look to be as big as the last storm system, but judging by some of these rain totals, you can see anywhere between 0.5 to just over 1 inch of rain for monday and if i take this time line through friday, we see that the north bay gets hit with about another inch of rain. so a good amount of rain expected from both of these systems. as far as is sierra forecast, from that first initial storm

through the second one, by wednesday, 5:30 p.m., you can see anywhere between 6 to 9 inches of snow expected. mostly for the higher elevation areas above 6,000 feet. over the next seven days, a quick look at what you can expect. again, today and tomorrow, we're going to keep nice right conditions, slightly warmer temperatures and if you look at monday and tuesday, a drop in those temperatures from 60s to 50s, thanks to the arrival of that system. and then we see that second system make its return on thursday, bringing back the next chance of rain. so, again, we're going to keep a close eye on mavericks because that storm system that's expected to bring its arrival, well, it looks like it's going to bring a pretty good swell. >> vianey, thank you. well, still ahead, "today in the bay," going for gold again. we talk to an olympic champion about what she's doing to help others. the winter olympics are fast

summer and then all -- i worked at a few different restaurants when i was young. and then it was like, well, i want to do snowboarding so i don't have to do this anymore. >> i think this might be a 900 right here. >> reporter: and do well, hannah did, winning a gold medal in snowboard halfpipe at the 2006 games in italy. but instead of reaping the financial benefits of her success for herself, hannah remembered and honored a promise she had made years ago. >> it was always like, if i ever make it big, i'm going to give back as much as i can. >> reporter: so, hannah proceeded to donate all of her winnings for the next five years to charity. >> so yesterday was our first day out on the field. >> reporter: she started hannah's goal, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing clean drinking water to a village in kenya, then traveled there to see the results firsthand. >> it's amazing.

it really is life-changing, you know? and it makes you realize, like, all the little problems we have here and we stress about this and that, and it's like, it's really nothing. it's not a problem. like, think about the kids in africa who have to walk 20 miles to go get a jug of clean water. like, that will change your perspective. >> reporter: which is not to say that hannah doesn't think snowboarding matters anymore. she knows the only reason she gets to do those things is because she is so good at this. hannah has her sights on earning a spot on the team for pyeongchang. winning the gold, and once again sharing the rewards. speaking of qualifying for the games, hannah's next shot to do that coming next weekend at mammoth mountain. garvin thomas. >> garvin is headed to south korea to help us cover the olympics. you can follow his reports daily

bay bridge from emeryville well, good morning to you. let's take a look outside this morning at the bay bridge, and you can see the sunrise. vianey says a bit of fog is going to roll in, but things will burn off from there. >> yeah, we're starting to see some of our cameras are picking up that early morning fog but once that burns off, you're in store for a lot of sunshine. look at walnut creek. there's the fog. you can't even see the mountain. as soon as that fog begins to roll in, remember to slow it down and keep both hands on the wheel. drive safe out there. current temperatures are cooler

in some spots like santa rosa, 38 degrees, san francisco, 48 degrees. and our temperature trend for santa clara does show a climb, eventually from the 50s into those 60s. at about 2:00, we'll be at 64 degrees and if you notice by about 3:00, the majority of those clouds that we do begin to see within the next half hour or so will completely burn off, making way for plenty of sunshine. that will linger through tonight and into tomorrow. now, as we head into tomorrow, we'll start to see an increase in the cloud cover. the reason for that is because i am tracking not one but two storms that are going to impact the start of your workweek, and if you have plans to be outside at any point next week, you're definitely going to want to tune in, in the next 15 minutes, because i'm going to break down what days we're expecting heavy rain. in the news this morning, two to be house democrats say they'll unveil a resolution to censure the president. an east bay congresswoman says it's time for republicans to to

meantime, reacting to the president's comments in an exclusive interview with rachel maddow. >> the words of a president are very powerful words, and unfortunately, this president has used his words to demean and belittle instead of uplifting people. and it is deeply troubling. it is unfortunate, and it is irresponsible. >> senator harris also blasted the trump administration for revoking a promise made to d.r.e.a.m.ers, the children of parents who came to the u.s. illegally. she's urging lawmakers to pass a clean d.r.e.a.m. act before protections run out on march 5th. five days of searching and the grim work continues in santa barbara county. seven people are still missing. 18 are dead. here's why. the hills above montecito torched in december. then those rains came last week. with no vegetation to hold them, the hillsides cascaded down to

communities below. the waves of mud washed out three miles out to sea, taking everything in its path. now, the most activity our crews have seen is in downtown montecito on highway 101. caltrans and contractors have been pumping gallons of sludge through pipes and into vacuum trucks, working around the clock to get it done. >> our organizations exist for the community and will continue to support the community throughout the search, rescue, and recovery efforts. >> workers on the ground tell us a construction company built this device specifically for the job. they say it's a filter connected to a vacuum that will drain the water off the freeway at a high rate of speed. now, speaking of fire, the biggest wildfire in california history, the thomas fire, is officially out. the u.s. forest service made that announcement yesterday after a detailed aerial survey. the thomas fire left a 440 square mile burn area.

>> reporter: as a precaution, he says, workers briefly shut down the park and did an extra sterilization using diluted bleach on all the surfaces, including the astroturf. it's the first time the disease has been associated with the park and as part of the new policy, there will now be thorough cleanings and sterilizations four times a year. >> i trust that they're working and no one will get sick again. >> reporter: owners are being asked to monitor their dogs. >> be diligent with their vaccinations and if they see any signs of any kind of illness that their dog may have, seek veterinary help. >> that was roz reporting. officials in union city they've had similar situations at their dog park last september. they shut it down then and again last month after hearing about what's happening in fremont. here comes the mail with an unwanted look. posting trucks in oakland have been tagged by vandals. a majority of the civic center post office postal truck fleet

come to work. >> reporter: for those who deliver the mail, the spray painted designs are with them on their routes all day, not the kind of messages they're used to delivering to oakland's neighborhoods. >> it's part of the community. we see that. so, i don't know that that message needs to go everywhere. >> reporter: jodi hernandez, nbc bay area news. 49ers star linebacker reuben foster arrested last night. he was taken into custody in tuscaloosa county, alabama, for second degree marijuana possession. that's a class a demeanor under alabama law. california, it's legal. foster was a first round pick last year, considered a rising star. he's an alabama native. the 49ers put out a quick response, saying they're aware of the arrest and they're gathering the facts. well, it's already been a brutal flu season. it appears things are getting worse. health care experts say emergency room visits have reached near record highs and the flu season hasn't even

radar, but if i fast forward this rain outlook to future cast, look at the time bar up here, if you notice, right in the middle of that early morning commute on monday, we can expect the arrival of the first of now three systems, if i look as far ahead as saturday. now, if you look just behind this, if i fast forward this time line through about 10:30 p.m., we get widespread showers and then a band of heavy rain that really comes into play into monday night and into early tuesday morning. we'll keep the chances of rain as we head into wednesday. we'll get a little bit of a break from all that rain, but then we see the arrival of a second system, and that system is also expected to bring sierra snow to the mountains, especially to the higher elevation areas where you see these blue hues. this is the snow. now, all the way from santa rosa down through gilroy, that rain will linger through friday. all the way down towards san francisco, we'll also keep that sierra snow but if i fast forward through saturday, here goes a third system. so we're definitely expecting a very wet workweek ahead.

more snow is on the way, anticipated with that saturday outlook. estimated rain totals, that first system isn't expected to drop too much rain, anywhere between 0.5 inch to possibly 1 inch. but if i fast forward that timeline through friday and saturday, the north bay is definitely expecting over 1 inch of rain. we're going to have to keep a close eye on those burn scars. as far as squaw creek, lake tahoe, looks beautiful right now. definitely on the cold side, 23 degrees, but taking you through tuesday and wednesday, we'll see anywhere between 6 to twoepossi 12 inches of snow for the higher elevation areas. mostly 3 to 6 inches expected for elevations above 6,000 feet. look at the next seven days, here's a look at what you can expect. arrival of that first system as early as monday and that second system is expected to make its arrival on thursday, and then once again again saturday, we see a third system. so, don't wash your vehicles. get ready with the rain boots and of course bring out all of those umbrellas but enjoy today

>> you wouldn't have brought him otherwise, right? six months is a fairly long time. is that standard? i mean, how long is the usual amount of time for a adoption? >> well, length of stay really varies. but when we have a long-termer like little calvin here, we do make some extra efforts to get them out. so we have three basic things we do, additional enrichment, social media campaigns, and maybe structured foster. a lot of people don't realize that getting out of a shelter for even a short time can be really beneficial to a dog's state of being. >> sure. yeah. in fact, you were going to bring a different dog at one point. >> yeah. >> pom pom, wasn't it? >> yeah, well, pom pom was adopted. >> that was my point. >> we were going to bring gil. >> what happened to gil? >> got adopted yesterday. >> and gil, too, was a long-term -- >> yes, six months. >> inmate. yes. what's the longest a dog's ever stayed with you and been out? >> we had a dog at one time that was there since 2009, a little chihuahua. and about two years ago, he was

adopted. >> oh, that's adorable. >> yeah. but now, i mean, which ashby, running the, you know, enrichment programs, our dogs length of stay is 17 days. it's excellent. >> ashby, that's got to be rewarding. i'm sure every job at pets in need is rewarding, but yours, i mean, you're talking about dogs that really, really need a home. >> yes. certainly, we do everything we can do get them out. we don't euthanize for time or space so we do everything we can to get them out. >> what is the kind of dog that people are looking for most? is there a particular type? i mean, calvin seems like the perfect type. he's been quiet the entire time. he's small. we have small houses here in california. what sort of dogs are people looking for? >> you know, i think people want a dog that they can take around with them. you know, that's going to be nice with their kids or their other pets and a dog like calvin, that's him. >> ashby, thank you very much. calvin, best of luck to you after six months. we thank you for watching us.
