good morning. it is sunday, november 8th. 7:00 on the dot. as we take a live look outside in san jose. cloudy skies. it is really chilly out there and you can see that tent blowing in the wind. thank you for starting your morning with us. vianey arana joins us with a look at your microclimate forecast. i felt like i was gripping my steering wheel this morning. it was quite windy out there. it is windy and we're expecting to see those winds continue which is why the national weather service issued a high wind advisory.

we've got a storm system, a cold storm system, that will drop in from the gulf of alaska dropping our temperatures down and it's kicking up those winds already. gusty conditions could have the possibility of spotty showers here and there. storm ranger up and scanning. gusts up to 30 plus, 40-plus plus an hour. that cold air breeze will make it feel even kohler out there. that windchill effect is very real. let's look at some of the current wind gusts. santa rosa 34-plus miles per hour. kira? we look forward to seeing you then, vianey. thanks so much. after four days of tracking the numbers, making predictions and counting the votes the country has a new president elected and vice president elect from right here in the bay area.

celebrations went well into the night across the u.s. and here locally. president trump remains mostly silent inside the white house save for a few tweets as the world found out and reacted to the announcement of the 46th presidential administration. president-elect biden and vice president elect harris delivered a rare defeat to a sitting president. the president-elect took to the stage last night saying he is already getting to work with his plans to fight coronavirus and get americans back to work. and a promise to heal this country after such a contentious election season. jay gray with a closer look. the president elect of the united states of america, joe biden. >> reporter: a four-day wait didn't seem to put a damper on this historic drive-in party.

president-elect joe biden and kamala harris, the first woman and first person of color ever to become vice president elect thanking supporters and acknowledging the tough job ahead dealing with covid, the struggling economy, and a deeply divided nation. >> i pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify, who doesn't see red states and blue states, only sees the united states. >> reporter: the celebration actually started -- >> it's one of the great days in american history. >> reporter: minutes after biden was named the projected winner, thousands across the country spilling into the streets dancing and -- ♪ -- singing, chanting and cheering. the parties in many areas, though, met by protests. trump supporters, like the president, challenging the

results. >> voter fraud. cheaters! cheaters! >> reporter: president trump was on his golf course in virginia when the call was made. >> are you kidding me right now? >> reporter: even stopping to pose for a wedding party. the next few months will be anything but a honeymoon tweeting he won the election, his campaign promising he'll ramp up a legal challenge monday. which means the fireworks are likely to continue long after the biden/harris victory celebration. jay gray, nbc news at the white house. here is a look at how this all played out, happening minutes after we went off air yesterday morning. it was pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes that sent biden over the magic number of 270. president-elect biden picked up six more with the projected win in nevada putting him at 279 votes. shattering glass ceilings is

nothing new for vice president-elect kamala harris, making history becoming the first vice president elect and being the first black south asian american to hold the second highest office in the nation. the howard university graduate also becomes the first graduate of a historically black college or university in hbcu to rise to the vice presidency. and earlier in her remarkable career harris broke other barriers as the first black senator to represent california. before that back in 2003 harris was elected to district attorney of san francisco becoming the city's first female d.a. her dual ethnicity to earn the position. as women, people of color, as supporters celebrate the historic rise of kamala harris to the presidency, locals are pausing to commemorate her beginnings in oakland and berkeley. in addition to recognizing her historic rise to the white house

many are also celebrating her bay area roots. "today in the bay's" marianne favro takes a look back from her childhood home in berkeley. >> reporter: this two-story yellow building on bancroft way is becoming a landmark. hundreds stopped by to honk, add chalk art and messages on the sidewalk and take photos of the childhood home of vice president-elect kamala harris. this mom wanted to show her daughters change in neighborhoods. >> whatever our nation's leaders started here and began as a child in this neighborhood is exciting. >> reporter: harris lived in berkeley for 12 years. for most of that time this was her home. now it's a montessori school. >> to have a berkeley person in the white house and who is a minority and a woman is just the most cool thing ever. >> reporter: as a child harris

also attended thousand oaks elementary school in berkeley. her face is on a mural in campus. the proud parents and students visited the school. >> it means a lot, the way kamala grew up, in the program she was in, she was bussed here to get a great education. my daughter is following her footsteps. >> reporter: harris has often mentioned her childhood here saying this is where she learned the road to racial justice is long. a lot of pride in berkeley for the girl with big dreams who went on to break barriers. in berkeley, marianne favro, nbc bay area news. so as a result governor gavin newsom will have to appoint a replacement to serve the rest of senator harris' term, likely would be elected to fill the seat permanently. newsom has not hinted at anyone he may be considering but is no stranger to historic choices.

last month he nominated the first openly gay justice to the california supreme court. and former president obama congratulated his former vice president joe biden and kamala hair which is a heartfelt statement. it reads in part we are fortunate joe got what it takes to be president and already carries himself that way. because when he walks into the white house in january he'll face a series of extraordinary challenges no incoming president ever has -- a raging pandemic, an unequal economy and justice system and a democracy at risk and a climate in peril. the former president obama then encouraged every american to give biden the chance and lend him their support. >> we are tracking the reaction in the bay area to the biden/harris victory. our twitter feed is a great resource for ongoing coverage. and it is just shy of 7:09. we do have move more ahead on

"today in the bay." coming up, if you watch every sunday you know we're about to take you live to our conversation with chuck todd, a preview of this week's "meet the press." for four years there has been protest but much of the area is dancing and celebrating.

♪ wild thing, ♪ ♪ you make my heart sing ♪ ♪ wild thing i... think i... you know what i think?

i think you owe us $48.50... wild thing. if you ride, you get it. geico motorcycle. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. welcome back. it is 7:11 right now on your sunday morning. we want to take a quick look out at san francisco, the eastern span of the bay bridge. the sun rising. you can see the sun shining on the sales force tower clear enough to see sutro tower beyond. there is some cloud cover. it is cold, and you can even see our camera shaking a little bit because it is windy out there. vianey arana will have your full microclimate forecast in about five minutes from now. it is time to bring in chuck

todd, moderator of "meet the press." as always, thank you for joining thus morning. i feel like i've been with you all week covering this election. i commend you for your work. >> thank you for being with me. >> definitely. while i'd love to talk about what's to come with president trump's potential recount, lawsuits, i want to get to the senate. we know now it appears that the u.s. senate will be under republican control save for two runoffs in georgia. democrats were counting on enough pickups to become a majority, hoping for the blue wave not to keep use that go cliche. so what do you think happened and what does it mean for the biden/harris administration? >> well, look, my biggest takeaway in the election the biggest mistake any analyst made after 2016 was making a prumgs

that 2016 was an outlier election. it was no outlier. in many ways 2020 was the 2016 election except this time none of the above vote, the third party vote, all went to joe biden. had hillary clinton won the third party vote in 2016, the result we just had this week would have been the same result as in 2016. i think that's the bigger takeaway, we're a fairly even divided country, i say fairly, in the battleground states exactly evenly divided and essentially leaning left, if you will, maybe center/left because of the popular vote perspective on that front. but, look, the georgia runoffs, don't assume anything there. georgia now an emerging battleground state. it is going to be, i think, one of those with so much money thrown ought it, it'll be something else. but when you look, when i look

at the results, the none of the above voters from 2016 who decided to vote for joe biden, they didn't vote for democratic senate candidates. i think they voted for republican senate candidates. look at north carolina, probably the biggest disappointment. the republican senate candidate there thom tillis, we haven't called the race yet, but performing a point or two above donald trump's vote total. what does that tell you there were some biden voters who voted for thom tillis and that was the difference between tillis winning that race and losing that race. and so i think these gary johnson voters, for the most part, who was one of the third party candidates voted biden and gop down the ballot. >> i heard someone say it was a good day for all republicans unless your name was donald trump. staying with congress it appears

democrats lost some seats, narrowed their majority. we here in california have a connection to nancy pelosi. is she in trouble? >> i don't think she's in trouble. you can't beat somebody unless you're going to run. there's no obvious heir apparent yet. she has, i think, done a fairly good job in the first two years of this majority trying to keep the moderates and progressives in the same tent. i think that job got a lot harder. you'll hear on the show this morning there is some resentment from some center/left democrats who believe phrases like defund the police, democratic socialism while may be arguments that fire

up progressives on social media, they believe they're on the right side of the issue that tactically and emotionally those phrases worked against moderates whether they lost in south florida with the socialism issue or perhaps in some swing districts because of the defund the police issue. yeah, and we heard a call saying some of them want that word to stay out of democrats' mouths. we'll continue to follow that, chuck. we hope you have a nap in your near future. thank you for your work this week and for your insight. we hope you join chuck for this morning's "meet the press." an interview with biden deputy campaign manager and mitt romney plus representative jim clyburn. we hope you stick right here and tune in at 8:00 a.m. right after this newscast. and coming up in about 30 minutes from now our election coverage continues. we will talk to our nbc bay area political analyst, larry

gerston, for our weekly segment. we'll take a look at president-elect biden's road to victory. and sticking with that theme, people held celebrations across the country, across the bay area. this is the scene in the castro last night. our sky ranger flying overhead for the massive party. sergio quintana was there and he has this report. >> reporter: this has been a street dance party for hours. so many came here at this spontaneous release of anger and frustration that has been building for quite some time. >> it has been an extremely long week, and following the results every hour of the day has been excruciating, so we are very excited. >> reporter: the crowd quickly turned its attention to vice president-elect kamala harris and president-elect joe biden as they spoke to the nation from their campaign headquarters in delaware.

>> black women -- asians, whites, latina, native american women who throughout our nation's his interest have paved the way tonight? >> reporter: the speeches were broadcast over loudspeakers. the last four years have been difficult and they weren't sure how this election would turn out. >> i'm totally elated, i'm totally relieved. i thought trump was going to win and i feel my faith in humanity is restored. >> reporter: the call for biden and harris has been cathartic. >> a show of hands how many people cried this morning when you heard the news? >> reporter: many in this crowd have actively protested against many of president donald trump's policies. tonight they cheered for the

president elected's calls for healing. >> let this grim era of demonization in america begin to end here and now. >> reporter: sergio quintana, nbc bay area news. >> now to observing where mayor libby schaaf took a celebratory lap around lake merritt in a ride that symbolized the slow path to victory for joe biden who first ran for president in 1988. schaaf rode as nearby crowds cheered and honked horns. the mayor says the city could not be more proud of oakland native kamala harris. >> kamala, my sister, my friend, my fellow girl, we are hella proud of you. we want you to know we have your back.

the work is hard. you have so much to do. >> an unforgettable moment for all the people who have cheered on harris throughout her career from the bay area to the white house. it is just about 7:20. time now to check in with vianey arana. a chilly and windy sunday. i have my sweater of the day. i'm whipping them out, kira. we're going to need them all weeklong. an active weather pattern that will make for finally fall temperatures around here. maybe even a sneak peek of winter weather. let's take a look at san francisco using our weather underground camera. great shot there. it is certainly windy and chilly but even colder heading into the overnight hours. we're starting out in the 40s and 50s. microclimate highs for today will only top out in the upper

50s, low 60s. we have this cold weather system dropping from the gulf of alaska. that is what's kicking up our win, but it's also going to bring the windchill factor to these 50s and 60s. in addition to that there is a possibility that we could get an isolated shower or two. here we have our storm ranger up and scanning, our mobile doppler radar. the only ones in the bay area that have it. in the sierra some shower activity and sierra snow as well. so i'm going to take you through everything that we're monitoring. zoom in closer. it's pretty calm right now. we're not seeing much rain when it comes to measurable amounts. the wind advisory is in effect and will remain in effect through 4:00 p.m. we have the northwest wind right now currently gusting upwards of 30-plus-miles-per-hour. as you know anytime it's already cold kick in gusts to 40, 50 plus miles per hour and it feels

even colder. look at novato. san francisco, it is definitely windy. 44 miles per hour and we're going to expect to keep the gusty winds at least for the first half of our morning. by 11:00 we start to notice the winds die down as that system continues to dig further south and notice by 5:00 which, remember, that wind advisory expires at 4:00. we see the winds back off. as far as that advisory, plenty of snow expected for the sierra. if you had plans to travel up there, check the road conditions. the hour by hour outlook shows a couple of isolated showers here and there. the cool temps will continue. and then what we're looking out for tonight is going to be that frost. there is a frost advisory now through 9:00 a.m. tomorrow. cold overnight lows in the mid-30s expected and got to remember the three ps, your pipes, your plants and your pets. for the north bay valleys and the hollister area it's going to be extremely cold.

here is a look. santa rosa dipping down to 30 degrees. 30 to the south bay as well as the interior valley so definitely going to be a very cold night over the next seven days we keep that active weather pattern. thursday, friday and saturday it does look like we have another low-pressure system that will bring more rain back to the bay area. kira? >> we need it. thank you so much. we do have much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up president-elect biden says he is already getting to work as he lays out his plan for the first 100 days of his presidency. we take a look at how he'll fight coronavirus next.

president-elect joe biden expressed the top item on his agenda come january 20th is battling coronavirus. here's nbc's jeff bennett with how biden says he'll jump-start his plan. >> reporter: president-elect joe biden promising a packed day one

agenda. >> they've given us a mandate for action on covid, the economy, climate change, systemic racism. >> reporter: at the top of his list, combatting the coronavirus crisis as new cases surge. >> on day one we're going to put our plan and control this virus into action. >> reporter: biden says he wants to develop a national covid strategy right away urging governors to mandate mask wearing, creating a plan to distribute vaccines and expand covid testing. campaign sources telling nbc news that biden is expected to announce his coronavirus task force on monday. a potential boost for obamacare with the affordable care act facing a supreme court challenge next week. >> folks, 100 million americans with pre-existing conditions who live in fear every day obamacare will be taken away, i promise it won't be. >> reporter: an immediate halt on most deportations for 100 days and says he'll create a

task force to reunite migrant families. when it comes to climate change he says he'll bring the u.s. back into the paris climate agreement. >> i've laid out how, in fact, i'm going to get us to net zero emissions in the united states of america by 2050. >> reporter: while promising attacking social and racial injustice. >> the names of george floyd, breonna taylor, jacob blake, they're not going to be soon forgotten by me. not by anyone in this country. >> reporter: with a nation divided, a pledge to push unity. >> it's time for us to come together as a nation to heal. it's not going to be easy. we have to try. >> that was jeff bennett reporting. we do have move more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up president-elect biden and vice president-elected harris already are setting the tone for their administration delivering messages of unity and reconciliation to this fiercely divided nation.

good morning, it is november 8, nearly 7:30 on your sunday morning as we take a look at the bay bridge bathed in sun light. it is cold and you can see how windy it is with our camera blowing in the wind. good morning to all of you. thank you for starting your sunday with us. a quick hello to my brother-in-law who is watching us from los angeles on his computer right now. i think it's the first time he has live streamed us. good morning to him. i'm kira klapper. vianey arana joins us with a quick look at your microclimate forecast. usually your mom in l.a. and my mom in l.a. are the only people live streaming us. >> yes. indeed. it's going to be coal down in l.a. because the same system that's affecting us is bringing some chilly temps and windy conditions to the southern california area as well. so the theme for this morning is going to be shaky cameras because all of our live cams are

showing that little shade. in san jose 51 degrees. now we're in the 40s and the 50s to start with the exception of napa. 32 degrees. however, the windchill factor makes it feel a lot colder and look how gusty it is. santa rosa 34 miles per hour. down to the south bay as well. in through the san francisco area upwards of 40-plus miles per hour and gustier in the higher elevations. the wind advisory will be in effect through 4:00 p.m. tonight. we're monitoring the cold system that will really drop our temperatures overnight tonight into early monday morning. it looks like a little bit of a possibility of seeing some shower activity but it's not going to be measurable amounts of rain. the bigger story just how cold especially overnight into early tomorrow morning which is why there a frost advisory so we're going to have to take a closer look because the active weather pat earp is here for the week. kira? >> thanks for the warning. we'll see you in about 15 minutes. after a long week of back

and forth tracking numbers, counting votes, the country has a new president elected and vice president elect from here in the bay area. celebrations like this were seen throughout the country. president trump remains mostly silent inside the white house say for a few tweets he sent out as the world found out and reacted to the announcement of the 46th administration. last night the plans for uniting our divided country reaching out to supporters of president trump after delivering a rare defeat to a sitting president. before he was president elect, joe biden spent nearly 40 years as a senator and was known for reaching across the aisle. last night he delivered a clear message to the country. here's nbc's sarah dallof. >> reporter: a prime time address to a divided nation. joe biden calling for unity and

healing after being elected the 46th president of the united states. >> let us be the nation we know we can be, a nation united, a nation strengthened, a nation healed. the united states of america, ladies and gentlemen, there's never, never been anything we've tried and not been able to do. >> reporter: the president elected vowing to make combatting the coronavirus pandemic a top priority. >> our work began with getting covid under control. >> reporter: and pledging to work for all americans. >> for all those of you who voted for president trump, i understand the disappointment tonight. i've lost a couple times myself, but now let's give each other a chance. >> reporter: kamala harris shattering a ceiling, the first woman and person of color elected vice president. >> while i may be the first woman in this office, i will not be the last. >> reporter: flags filling the air, supporters cheering them

on, scenes that continued across the country. the trump campaign filing multiple lawsuits alleging unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud. a defiant president trump issuing a statement saying this election is far from over. the biden campaign bracing for possible lengthy legal battle. but tonight celebrating with fireworks after a historic election. in wilmington, delaware, sarah dallof, nbc news. just about 20 hours ago it was pennsylvania's votes that sent biden over that historic number and picked up six more with a projected win in nevada and that put him at 279 votes. this morning the world is reacting to this long and historic united states presidential race. waking up to front pages across the world. i will give you some from american papers this is the sunday edition of "the washington post."

the message is concise. biden defeats trump. "the new york post" with a play on words, it's joe time. shattering glass ceilings is nothing new for vice president-elected kamala harris. she makes history becoming the first vice president elect and being the first black south asian american to hold the second highest office in the land. the howard university graduate also becomes the first person from a historically black college or university in hbcu to rise to the vice presidency. and earlier in her remarkable career harris broke other barriers as the first black senator to represent california. before that back in 2003 harris was elected district attorney of san francisco and became the city's first female d.a. her dual ethnicity made her the first black woman and south

asian woman statewide to earn that position. in addition to recognizing harris' historic rise to the white house many are celebrating her bay area roots. "today in the bay's" marianne favro shows us. >> reporter: this two-story yellow building on bancroft way in berkeley is quickly becoming a landmark. hundreds stopped by to honk, add chalk art and messages on the sidewalk, and take photos of the childhood home of vice president-elect kamala harris. this mom wanted to show her daughters that change starts in neighborhoods. >> for us to be able to say, look, one of our nation's most powerful leaders began right here and started change as a child in this neighborhood is really exciting. >> reporter: harris was born in oakland and lived in berkeley for 12 years. for most of that time this was her home. now it's a montessori school. >> to have a berkeley person in

the white house and who is a minority and a woman is just the most cool thing ever. >> reporter: as a child harris also attended thousand oaks elementary school in berkeley. her face is on a mural on campus. the proud parents and students visited the school. >> it means a lot actually because the way kamala grew up in the program she was in, she was bussed here to get a great education. my daughter is following in her footsteps. >> reporter: harris has often mentioned her childhood here saying this is where she learned the road to racial justice is long. a lot of pride in berkeley for the little girl with big dreams who went on to break barriers. in berkeley, marianne favro, nbc bay area news. >> and with harris making history as the first woman vice president, her husband will be the first male spouse of a vice

president. he will soon become the nation's first second gentleman. the 55-year-old entertainment lawyer has embraced his wife's campaign wholeheartedly, being her most fervent cheerleader. he was a divorced father of two. harris had never been married. they've been married now for seven years. and with kamala harris as vice president elect governor newsom will have to appoint a replacement. harris' replacement likely would run to be elected to fill the seat permanently in the 2022 general election. newsom has not hinted at anyone considering but he is no stranger to historic choices. just last month newsom nominated the first openly gay justice in california's supreme court. it wasn't just biden's celebrations that filled the streets yesterday. hundreds of people across the country attended pro-trump

demonstrations. this is from sacramento. things did get violent right outside the state capitol building. people started pushing and shoving one another. it is not clear who started the unrest. aside from a few tweets the president has been silent. he went golfing in virginia and was there when the presidency was called for joe biden. crowds of biden supporters appeared to be lining the streets. the president has not yet conceded and continues to make claims of voter fraud without evidence. he did release a statement vowing to fight the results in court. again, there is no substantiated evidence of any voter fraud. lawsuits that were filed by the trump campaign to stop the vote count have already been dismissed. legal experts say it's not likely for his upcoming lawsuit to succeed either. >> he would have to do something

never done in american history which is to show multiple states counted votes that were illegal. there's no evidence that it's happened here. >> some states will enter an automatic recount because of how close the race was. experts say the process is extremely unlikely to make a difference because it only tends to change a few hundred votes if that. we will continue to track any lawsuits, any recounts, all of the celebrations for the biden/harris ticket and the ties to the bay area by kamala harris. check our twitter feed. it's a great resource. follow us at nbc bay area. and at 7:40, still to come on "today in the bay," a historic election ends in a joe biden victory. how did it all happen? political analyst larry gerston joins us in a few minutes. but first you hear our sports music. stanford drops its season opener

time around? >> hello to your mother and brother-in-law. we had three buckets of votes, the day of voters, right, the ones who go in election day and vote. massive amounts of absentee votes, people who just moved things along and we had direct mail and then we also had the early voting. every state had a different way of counting those votes. some states count the day of first and then the absentee and mailed in votes later. some states's the other way around. it took a massive amount of time to just process all of these votes. that may not sound very sexy but that's what it was.

overwhelmed by so many votes from so many different places. >> i've seen this all week. is that the delay in counting mail-in ballots is what ultimately helps biden win the election? >> a lot of people have said it. i'm not so sure i look at it that way. what the president said was this is a rigged election. it's the mail-in votes are going to be fraudulent, so i'm urging my people to vote day of. the democrats were saying, hey, because of covid we have to urge our folks to get the ballots in when they can. don't show up if you don't have to. i think the votes would have been the same either way. the way it turned out democrats got all their votes in, took some pretty good leads. the republicans came on voting day. they cut into those leads and in some cases overcame those leads. i don't think it makes much difference. it was an extraordinarily close race.

people forget this already. it could have gone either way and it just so happened that vice president biden carried the day. >> it made it apparent our country is extremely divided, practically 50/50. will were some firsts, weren't there? >> yes. yeah. vice president biden becomes the oldest president to be elected, 78 years old. and, by the way, he tried three times. third time is the charm for him. give him point for that. ofurse kamala harris the first woman of color, there are so many things that come along with her election to the vice presidency. you put these together and you have a unique ticket, a standing generations, if you will, and whatever else you're going to say it was extraordinary for what is now the nation's -- or

will be the premiere power couple. >> and it appears across the world that this has been an accepted outcome. we know president trump is demanding recounts, promising lawsuits. so what happens next here? >> the lawsuits will be dealt with. no question about that. and nothing is going to happen. you don't take away votes after they've been cast and counted. it just doesn't happen that way. you try to control things before the election maybe, but not after. those things will be dealt with. we have 70 days here for the vice president biden, the president elect, to work through as much as he can. he will have this covid team put together on monday. he will have to work the best he can around a recalcitrant president trump who doesn't want much to do with him. national law says he has access

to the civil service and various departments, so that will work out okay. certainly covid-19 is the first thing he has to get his arms around and will try to do as much as he can before he steps into that office january 20th. it's usually more compatible when you see the president handing off to the president elect. let's hope that over time president trump reconsiders his present attitude and becomes more available and makes all the people around him more available to the president elect. >> larry, we always appreciate your insight. i hope that some sleep is in your near future as well after this roller coaster of a week, this roller coaster of a year. and we'll see you in a week from now. we will be back in a moment with vianey's final look at weather. it's not easy now with this pandemic. second harvest makes me really really happy. meatballs, mexican rice, chicken enchiladas, and mole. for almost twenty years. *speaking in spanish

good sunday morning. if you are a californian and you have been waiting for the drop in temperatures, this is your week to shine. bring out the sweaters, jackets, even a scarf. you're going to need it. extremely gusty and the majority of the bay area you can see our camera there is shaky. we've seen gusts upwards of 30, 40 plus miles an hour. because of that a wind advisory. i have a feeling that shot is upside-down. current temperature 40 degrees. we have our storm ranger up and

scanning. we have this cold weather system that's dropping down southward through california. that's what kicked up the winds and is what will bring the chance of seeing a little bit more snow for the sierra as well. not much in the way of rain. the possibility of a couple pop-up showers here and there. the bigger story is the wind and the drop in overnight lows. let's talk about that wind advisory. that will be in place and in effect through 4:00 p.m. northwest winds kicking up again upwards of 40-plus miles an hour for the coast and the bay area hills above 1,000 feet. anytime we get that cold air paired with gusty winds, we'll get windchill effects. 30s in the north bay. 40s in san francisco. and then notice by 11:30 the wind starts to diminish a little bit. fast forward to 4:30. by the time that wind advisory expires, in portions of the

north bay 18 to 20 miles an hour. there is a winter weather advisory in effect because this is a colder storm it is expected to produce a decent amount of snow. that could make for dangerous travel if you had plans to head up there. please check the road conditions. that frost advisory will remain in place starting at 3:00 a.m. through 9:00 a.m. monday. look how cold we're going to get. 31 degrees in santa rosa. 30s down to the south bay. and it's going to stay cold pretty much all morning. we get a second storm system that makes its arrival thursday, friday and saturday of next weekend coming up. our weather pattern will stay pretty active this week, but we certainly need the rain. kira? >> we sure do. that's a great forecast to see. thanks so much and thanks to you for making us a part of your morning. as always on sundays, no 5:00 or 6:00 p.m. news tonight. it is sunday night football night in america. the saints at the buccaneers. and then sports sunday airs at 8:30 followed by a special

edition of nbc bay area news at 9:00. and then the news back at 11:00 tonight. until then, stay up to date on nbcbayarea.com. have a great sunday.
