white. it's cool to see the snow hitting many parts of the bay area. we're going to give you a really good look at all the areas it's hitting in a little bit. good morning to you and thanks so much for joining us. i'm laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. let's head over to meteorologist kari hall tracking the snowfall for us this morning, and kari, is it sticking around for a bit? >> it will be sticking around for another i'd give it three hours before it starts to taper off. we're seeing quite a bit of re we head to the north bay where we've seen a mix of some snow and rain, in the mt. tam area. where we see the white, that is snow. pink is the wintry mix and of course the green is rain we're used to seeing but it's such a colorful radar, we have to sort it all out for you, as we are also seeing some of that moving through parts of the east bay, east of danville, around mt. diablo and the altamont pass and headed toward the santa cruz mountains mostly scattered rain now and seen snow coming down in some of our higher elevations, right there where the radar is

parked uminum and also snow coming down on mt. hamilton. a lot to track here for the morning and the moisture will be tapering off and we'll start to see the snow winding down by 8:00 to 9:00. it's still really cold temperatures throughout the day. mike, has it affected anything besides what people are driving through this morning? >> we have the mountaintops, you have to be careful. if you're curious, hold off, folks, wait until daylight and we'll see whether they open some roads to the mountain peaks. this did not open in time, train number one has been canceled for ace train. in stockton there's a derailment of a freight train. no injuries and not the commuter train and no impact to capito different line. so far the roadways are moving corridor. that train system uses a nicely. doing okay so he pink, snownd e far. watch the smaller roads. back to you. >> thanks, mike.

temperatures are dropping and we are looking for icy roads and maybe snow. >> we've already seen it, kris sanchez is live at highway 17 at the summit. saw it earlier at least. >> reporter: oh, yeah. it's a little, we're seeing little tiny flurries at the this point but there was enough for accumulation. it's like the nice, fluffy snow you could make a snowball with. alan was out there at 4:15, and it is accumulating on the ground which is fantastic to see, and seems super fun, unless you are out here driving, folks. it is a really slippery mess ou the snowplows. they must have been called in extra duty and the california highway patrol has been pacing drivers, when they get ahead of the traffic and slow down to make sure people are not driving too fast for those conditions. we saw them as they were doing that last night as well making sure that cars and trucks and all those drivers were making it

up and down the mount this morning.it is a very diffie know in the rain, and with this kind of wintry mix, folks who live up in the mountains say they can be really dangerous. >> we have a lot of accidents up here. we see them every day with the restaurant. you know, somebody driving too fast, not slowing down and they spin out and cause the accidents. >> reporter: so the snow has pretty much let up at this point here, where we are. kari said that it is still going to be off and on through the morning but now it's just really cold. the roadway is wet, and so we are watching for any chance of black ice. you won't see it until you hite give yourself some safe stopping distance, and also make sure that you are minding the speeds for the conditions. otherwise, a very nice morning, if you have pictures of the snow, where you are, make sure you tag us in your pictures. we'd love to see them as well because it certainly is a special day. in santa cruz mountains, kris

sanchez, "today in the bay." >> it sure is. all that snow is expected to draw some crowds to bay area peaks today. >> pete suratos is live in mt. diablo. how are things looking there? >> reporter: yes, good morning to you, marcus and laura. as you can see behind me, no snow where we're at, stuck at the base of the mountain at mt. diablo. the road is closed. the park opens at 8:00 a.m. so a much different scene than what kris is seeing at the santa cruz mountains. there is snow up there in the mountains, way up there. i want to show you video from overnight, when that snow was coming down, of course, as snow, brings a lot of people who come out to check out the snow to take in that experience of the winter snowfall in the area in mt. diablo. here's what they were saying yesterday, guys. >> we've had people bring skis up, sleds up, >> we were here last week, total, beautiful weather, 80 degrees, felt like awesome, and less than a week later it's snowing, so we had to bring her up to see it.

>> reporter: definitely the opposite of 80 degrees there, and we're showing you guys some video, the sound of hail at tilden regional park and the sleet bouncing off the asphalt back on to mt. diablo. you have to head high to get to the snow but the park behind me opens at 8:00 a.m. we're live here at mt. diablo, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> thanks a lot, pete. it's really beautiful to look at when you see it. >> isn't it, though? in fact, look at our radar right here, kind of gives you that, you know, idea of where the snow is. we see the rain, but some of the white parts you see down off of looks like hollister toward los spanos, so cold, we're seeing some snow in those parts? >> we are seeing some snow. you have to go up in some elevation above 1,000 feet before we really s i changing over to snow, but slick road conditions as we track it with storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar. this is part of a larger system

and some cold air rushing in, and our temperatures will stay chilly as we go throughout the day, so some off and on rain that will start to wind down, as we're starting to see some drier air coming in. we'll continue to track that and also all the snow that develops on bay area peaks, we'll have more on that coming up in just a few minutes. >> we're checking on the hot spots, too, or cold spots i should say. want to take you live to morgan hill this morning, where we had heard there were going to be reports of snow flurries over there. obviously slick roadways there, but yesterday the uvas reservoir overflowed into parts of the town. watching for anything happening there. not surprisingly the road to lake ta show still closed, i-80 closed from colfax to the nevada state line, shut down in both directions. whiteout conditions up there, and actually right now there's no estimated time for reopening. nearly ten feet of snow fell in the past two days alone, closing, in kt fa, sofact, clos

of the resorts. too much snow to deal with. turning to capitol hill, president trump will be delivering the state of the union address tonight in washington. tonight said the theme is choosing greatness, focusing on immigration, trade, infrastructure, lowering health costs and foreign policy. it comes amid negotiations to avoid another government shutdown next week, hung up over the president's demand to build a border wall. the president and the first lady have invited more than a dozen guests tonight. senator kamala harris is inviting the southern california mother of three as her guest. the family, davock family lost their home in 2017 to the thomas fire. their loss was compounded when the parents were furloughed during the government shutdown. both are air traffic controllers. congresswoman barbara lee's guest is an oncology nurse who was deported by the trump administration in 2017. and you can watch the state of the union right here on nbc

through the tri-valley, the hills, just above livermore, and also going through the north, some of the mountains near the diablo range, seeing some snow coming down and then we are seeing some rain around oakland, san leandro, and also down to about hayward, and then as you head down to mt. hamilton, and also as you go up in elevations just east of san jose, we're seeing some snow. so here is what to expect, rain/snow mix coming down in some spots down to sea level especially in the north bay, and then as we head out this morning, you just make sure you drive slower, leave room for bre braking and try to get the best traction. a lot of this will end after sunrise. as we head over to mike, oakland is a little blurry. >> this is what it looks like when i wake up, have to rub the sleep out of my eyes, the camera is showing blur because the water is kicking off the roadway. you'll have slick roadways, overnight rain is all rain. taking you out to the maps, we

normally show you the green where you'll see damp, wet roadways but over here we see some pink and white. white is where there is some snowfall overnight and most recently sticking around. the pink where there may be ice on smaller roadways. the freeways are maintaining a pretty smooth, slicker drive, no ice really because the cars over them are able to melt the activity there, the pavement a little warmer as well but we're still tracking that because it could continue to be a problem. temperatures still very cold, still watch for the slick roadways and the closures, highway 35 skyline and 84 over here in fremont. i'll outline those more coming up. back to you. >> thanks, mike. it's 5:11 right now. patriots fans expected to line the street in boston. the new ror the super bowly not one to be too proud of. televisions?

projects outside search. google stock under pressure this morning. san francisco-based slack has filed paperwork for an ipo. could come later this spring. i'm not going to get into the details here, but it's an unusual ipo, one that won't actually raise money for the company. slack was started by stewart butterfield, who, along with his wife at the time, also started the photo sharing website flickr. he made slack sort of by accident. it spun out of an idea for a game. and the head of the fx network says he doubts netflix is telling the truth about how many viewers it has on shows like networks feeling pressure. tv networks use nielsen, stream ing flicks netflix doesn't. "the marvelous mrs. maisal" show on amazon show it's a hit for amazon, though if you compare it

to tv cable numbers, it's about average. if you watch the super bowl ads, there were a sta ggerinand netflix as well. >> that's true. >> the regular tv networks like ours feeling the pressure. so far, the numbers say the blockbuster hits for them are fairly rare. >> right. >> so far. >> a lot of choices. >> we do. >> we're. pi you're here right now. absolutely. speaking of the super bowl, in just a few hours the super bowl liii champion new england patriots will take a victory lap there, a victory parade being held this morning, the team won their sixth lombardi trophy in franchise history, when they beat the los angeles rams 13-3. such a low-scoring game there, but this morning, we're learning the game was the lowest rated super bowl since the pittsburgh steelers/arizona cardinals match of a decade ago. about 100 million people watched sunday's game, a 5% drop from

last year's game. >> there you have it. >> i wonder if the companies that paid top dollar for the advertising spots if they're happy with the results they may get because of the lower viewership. >> i'm sure they're not. maybe it will pay off. we still talk about the commercials. >> still playing them. >> they keep playing. we're talking about the snow. it's so cold out there. >> yes, it is very cold, and such an unusual sight to see, a winter weather advisory in effect for the bay area. all of those areas shaded in purple and that continues until 7:00, and we could see some snow continuing in some spots.lrea s down, and as we get a look at it on storm ranger, that's our mobile doppler radar, it's tapering off for the north bay, starting to make its way south, as we get this last little burst of some rain and snow, wintry weather moving through parts of the east bay, where we have the blues and the whites, that shows snow, and then as you see the pink shade there, that's a transition from rain to snow,

and then here is some rain. we have a lot of colors to sort out here, but also a lot to deal with as you get ready to head out. this is 580, going through the altamont pass, just north of livermore, and then we can also see some snow coming down in the hills just above livermore. i was also looking at this cell. this is some rain that's moving through san leandro, castro valley, and just around the alameda area. as it moves up around the oakland hills, it's transitioning over to some snow, so we can see that, as we go down the street level here, here is the oakland zoo, a wintry mix coming down there and you go in the hills just above the oakland zoo, and it is snowing right now, so a lot to deal with this morning, as you get ready to drive, and we're really not used to this kind of weather. then as we go down toward mt. hamilton, we're still seeing a lot of snow, and the snow is also coming back to the santa cruz mountains. temperatures are cold as you step out the door, with some near freezing temperatures in fairfield, and then it's mostly in the mid-30s for parts of the

antioch, things are going to e.e start to dry out, but look at how cold it is, with some upper 30s for the next fewhours, and then getting a little bit milder for the afternoon, but overall, it's just going to be a chilly day. going hour by hour, still shows that we could still see a wintry mix of some rain and snow for the santa cruz mountains. snow coming down for those east bay hills, and then it tapers off by noon, and then the rest of the day is wan to get you ca the reservoir levels, looking at some of our reservoirs, sorry, that was going off the page there, but stevens creek at 82%. we are also vaching twatching t reservoir near capacity. uvas overflowed its banks yesterday over 102%. we'll see the levels dropping as we get a couple of days to dry out but also freezing temperatures for the next couple

of mornings. scattered showers coming the forecast for the what's happening out there and taking us where? >> i'll bring you back to the radar, kari. i's radar and putting it on top of the traffic map, where we have the road weather index. what that means is i'm showing you what's going on above the roadways and reportedly on the roadways. you see these grays, whites, pinks. these are all where there's snow and ice that's accumulated on the smaller roadways and you're going to watch the freeways as well, because even though the pavement is warmer and they've been able to stay clear we have spots for flooding along the peninsula from recent rain and slicker roadways, coming from where kari is talking about, snow on the mountaintop, mt. diablo, mt. tam in the north bay. over here we have this closure as well, the windy section of highway 84 through niles canyon. yesterday morning we had that sliding crash and it cleared and then happened again in the afternoon, another slide, so they've closed that for the time being. avoid that. also the pink and the white

showing you ice, snow likely on the smaller roadway so be careful wherever you're driving. for now you look at a smoother drive through contra costa county toward the maze. we've lost our dublin camera so the weather may be playing a part there. you can see the glowing lights as the volume kicks up for oakland. coming up here on "today in the bay," president trump getting a big surprise overnight, what federal prosecutors are now asking he turn over. but first, check it out, "today in the bay's" mike inouye celebrating the lunar new year on facebook. be sure to follow him and see some of his traditions. roof rack! this is how are we gonna fit in your mom's buick? easy. i like that new buick. me too. i was actually talking about that buick. i knew that. did you? buick's fresh new lineup is full of surprises. get great deals on our expectation-shattering lineup.

the bay area. it's ald o outside. the snow falling in some parts of the bay area. check out our radar right now. we don't see that pink and white stuff too often, but that's snow right here in our area. we have brand new video from livermore. this is from overnight. look at all that snow, the white stuff, dogs getting involved and joining in. like what's going on here? it's the beginning of the tuesday morning here in the bay. i'm marcus washington. thanks for joining us. >> i'm laura garcia. let's get straight over to kari right now, she's been tracking all this. it's kind of cool to see. >> it is cool to see, but it, of course, is very dangerous. it's a lot of people getting ready to head out the door for, this morning, and we're tracking

scattered showers, some areas are seeing some very heavy snow. where you start to see blue, that indicates some pretty heavy snow, but most of it has been white, indicating lighter snow and you see the pink shades, that's the transition of a wintry mix from snow to rain, and of course that green is rain. so let's go around the bay area, and see that it is snowing right now in the oakland hills, and then also as you head down toward castro valley, and seeing possibly a wintry mix on 580 right now. as we get a closer look, we can see where it changes over near the oakland zoo. so as you head up in the hills, we are going to see a lot more of that snow coming down there as well as rain. san leandro getting in on some wet weather, and then we head to the santa cruz mountains, highway 35 is looking like still very heavy snow at this point. it's been off and on there, and then also for mt. uminum and also the summit, highway 17 getting some snow right now. we've seen it off and on, and

that's the nature of what we will see throughout the day, even on mt. hamilton, as we get the last little push of this moving through. so if you do have to drive this morning, the rain and snow may mix down to sea level in spots and just make sure you allow some extra room, and go slower for best traction. most of this will be ending after sunrise. heading over to mike, you're seeing that also on the roads, and breaking news as well for the rails. >> that's right. first we'll start with the rails. the conditions are an issue. train number one in case you hadn't heard was canceled this morning. they were not able to leave the stockton area because of a freight train that had a derailment. i don't know how severe the derailment was. it was not the passenger train, so we're not talking about injuries for folks on ace train. they can't ride here in the bay area and closer to san jose, train number three may start, with he'll see. meanwhile looking at the snow and the ice, the pink and the white. the conditions kari showed you

them around the bay and we showed you video. watch 84 through livermore, 580 reported a lot of snow out of the altamont. back to you. >> we've been talking about the snow. some places waking up to a lot of snow. >> we check in with kris sanchez, she's at highway 17 and look at it come down there. >> reporter: i feel like i'm in tahoe, laura. i might have to borrow your skis at a certain point. the snow is coming down, big, fluffy snowflakes are accumulating, you can see it on the ground behind me. i wouldn't say there's a tremendous amount, but certainly enough on the roadway to make it a little bitlippery outhere. we have seen california highway patrol escorting people, they do that pacing. mike's explained that before etnriving we've seen snowplows and a slow enough for the caltrans truck dropping salt along the roadways. obviously we're aware this could be a situation where we could see black ice. this is a beautiful sight. if you head out there this morning and trying to get the kids out to take a picture in

the snow, make sure you are very, very safe and if the california highway patrol or caltrans tells you not to go, then you probably shouldn't, and the wind just shifted, you see that, snow pelted, you can see the accumulation here. this is not what we expect to be reporting here in the bay area but it certainly is a fun morning for us. do be safe out there, folks, because you know, folks just like to drive fast and we should definitely slow down. all right, laura, i need your scarf. i need your tahoe stuff. >> i have snowshoes and the works. do you, you do. you look like you're reporting from tahoe. >> reporter: the producers must love this, just started blowing this way. >> good tv is what we call it. stay warm out there. >> reporter: see you in a half hour. >> it is kind of exciting. a lot of people will try to head up there but as kris said be very careful. we see accidents on 17 all the time. so they're saying the south bay could see some flurries over the next couple of hours, not just at some of the higher elevations. it will be interesting to see if

it makes it to the valley floor. it lass to stay pretty cold. >> we sent bob redell there live in morgan hill for us. bob, your view is a lot different from kris' this morning. >> reporter: but it's still -- you can see my breath, still cold down here but yes, we don't have the snow yet. we have a little bit of break in the weather in morgan hill but our team of meteorologists at nbc bay area do believe it is possible within the next 90 minutes or so between now and 7:00 this morning that there is a chance we could see a mix of rain and snow here at sea level. places like morgan hill, gilroy, up north through san jose, and palo alto, and if we get snow, the prediction would be flurries, probably not something sticking to the ground but seen at sea level that would be highly unusual. some other video we want to show you from within the past 18 hours here in morgan hill, this is from nbc bay area sky ranger, the uvas reservoir is full with the water overflowing the spillway and filling creeks

downstream. gives you a sense of how much rain we've gotten. management had to evacuate the thousand trails campground out of concern that its low-lying entry road could be flooded and stranding campers. the santa clara valley water district which manages the reservoir says there is no imminent flood risk and that the water is decreasing, so if you are heading out this morning, even though the rain here in morgan hill has taken a break, you can see behind me the reflection on the pavement the roads are slick, careful and dress warm. reporting live in morgan hill, bob redell, "today in the bay." lwlling, this is from overnight in morgan hill foothills. if you know that area this iswi. a lot of that snow, even dogs out there having a good time, the snow sticking on the ground there. two to three inches is sticking around this morning on highway 29 in napa county. this is just above calistoga. folks living up there tell us those roads are icy and there are even rock slides in some

spots, advice for you this morning to be careful in the areas. >> that was livermore, and of course napa county that you showed there, the snow falling as well on mt. hamilton, north santa clara county, just east of san jose. the chp is u not on mt. hamilton. it's really drive at your own risk, and the road leading to the top of the mountain is closed. when you get to the top, though, if you were able to, if it wasn't closed, it's covered with several inches of snow. >> laura, this snow here no surprise. the road to lake tahoe still closed. i-80 is closed from colfax all the way to nevada state line, shut down at this hour in both directions. whiteout conditions are there. there's no estimated time to reopen, nearly ten feet of snow in the past two days there, and many resorts like squaw and kirkwood were closed yesterday, so if you're headed up that way, if you make it up that way, you want to make sure you check that they're open before you get there and head that way. >> when we're not on the air,

our nbc bay area app is really great to take along with you. keeps you in the know. download it, get updates on when the rain or even snow if you're in the higher elevations will hit your neighborhood. >> 5:37. in other news for you this morning, oakland teachers inching closer to a strike. this after the union announcing results of a vote indicating nearly full support of the strike. the union leaders say 95% of the teachers who voted approved a strike. the union now plans to set a strike date before the end of the month. teachers have been working without a contract for more than a year. istr dt issued a statement saying in part, "we believe that our teachers deserve a fair wage, and we are doing everything we can to find a solution. we will continue to advocate for more funding from the state and find a way to compensate our teachers fairly." >> it is 35: -- 5:38. and warm this morning after they went missing in the snow-covered

mendocino forest in glen county. here is when her father heard from his daughter for the first time in days. >> i miss you so much. i love you so much. >> tears of relief and joy there. hernandez, jr., were reported missing saturday. they say their jeep got stuck and buried in the snow. volunteers and glen county sheriff's deputies found the couple two days later. here is maya's father once again.ust got out of a real tight spot. >> rescuers had to brave dangerous continues to find them. both are safe and should be back home in san francisco soon. >> very happy about that result for the couple. it's another reminder why when the roads are closed you stay away -- not saying that was their fault, i'm saying when you see the closure, that's another reason you don't want to get into that situation when you know about the risk. the wet roads right here the bay bridge toll plaza, you see the backup and the slick roadways

here so we have the traffic and the slicker roadways to contend with. on top of that, this is what we're talking about, the snow and potentially some icy roads on the smaller sections, smaller roadways, as you get up toward mt. diablo and through the san jose hills and watch out for mt. hamilton, watching mt. uminum, mt. tam, lots of snow and ice. monterey, chp report they have a report for snow instead of roadway flooding, they have a report for snow. >> we're seeing it there. >> it's talking about accumulation on kris' hood. >> let's look at it in fact right now. you think it's highway 80 leading up to tahoe but that's 17. we're seeing a lot of snow falling in the santa cruz mountains. snow plays in the area. there you go. >> chp escorts. >> yes, so take it easy if you're headed up that way, for the folks coming down. that's already a slippery slope, but kind of exciting sight to see in the higher elevations of the bay area.

few areas tals measuring over inches.kland, check out san anselmo, over four inches of rain, almost five there, so it really was a lot, and now we're winding this storm down with some cold air blasting in, and changing some of that rain over to a wintry mix. we're tracking it with storm ranger, as we get a closer look at some of the spots like mt. tam, that earlier had some snow coming down. now that has since moved on, but then we head over toward the east bay, where you're seeing some snow coming through just in the hills above livermore, and then also in parts of the east bay, check that out, as you drive on 580, between castro valley and dublin, looks like there could be some snow or a wintry mix there, coming down to the surface. and then for the hills, moving through the sunol grade, some snow and also for parts of the santa cruz mountains through the peninsula, pink indicates a wintry mix, and then the white, the snow. the green is the rain.

so we are going toor of that as we go into the rest of the morning and some really heavy snow for the santa cruz mountains as the storm winds up and blows through with some chilly temperatures, most of us in the upper 30s and low 40s as you get ready to head out the door. we'll see activity tapering off throughout the rest of the day with sunshine and some chilly temperatures by tomorrow morning, it could be freezing in the valleys and may be slippery as well. temperatures only reaching the low 50s and more rain coming back in time for the weekend. mike, you have another update for the ace train? >> i do. unfortunately it's not a great one. we have no trains running. this is not a change if the general sense. ace train number one was canceled, train number three held in stockton. there was a freight train derailment overnight and why the trains are not able to get past that and in toward the rest of the commute. so right now, ace train reports, ace trail reports no trains are travelhrou t the area.y,

you are going to hit a bottleneck as well, talking about the delay right here coming off of 580 and 205 and in toward the altamont pass, out tracy, there is about a ten-minute delay right now because of the slower drive, and kari talked about the snow, keep that in mind, the roadways are open but the snow is an issue and distraction for a lot of folks. let's get back to our other maps and the traffic flow through the area, pretty standard with your backup out of the altamont. actually the dublin interchange looks great but this pink is icy, possible icy conditions, and the white is where there's still some snow deposited across the mountaintops as the sun comes up, folks will be distracted by that as well. and reminder, yesterday we did have the closure for 84, and then it reopened during about this time of the show, it closed again yesterday afternoon, so you can't get through the area and notice the windy roadway as well as the snow and ice reported in the area. that's just a tough drive, if it was open, but it's not, goois.
