kids out of the water. everyone is okay but, you know, the concern remains along the coastline, kari. how do you expect things to be out there today? >> well, we are going to see the breakers coming down a bit. we'll also have king tides today that draws the water further inland during the morning hours and it may cause flooding in our usual flood spots that see that during king tides. and the rain is staying to the north. even though there's storm systems nearby creating the high waves, the rain will miss most of us in the bay area. we'll go on a warming trend for this week as our temperatures reach near 70 for the weekend. we'll talk more about all of that and those big waves, that's coming up in a few minutes. mike, what's the update on the morning commute? >> there was a problem reported by b.a.r.t. in the transbay tube, that could have meant huge issues, but it sounds like everything is back on schedule or there may be a ten-minute delay there for some trains.

>> absolutely. they were saying no one has won in months now. i guess that's the reason why it keeps adding up. since you didn't win, you have to get to work. here's a look at the commute in dublin and the visibility is clear. a lot of people are up and out the door, but it's cold. make sure you're wearing extra warm jacket or blast that heat in the car. we'll see temperatures warming up today into the upper 50s by early in the afternoon. even though we do have a cold and cloudy start it will be a nice day. we'll talk about what's ahead in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. mike, what does it look like for the commute elsewhere across the bay area? >> it looks like we have circles on the map but i didn't explain them last time. i apologize. the reason i put circles in hayward and in san jose, those are the two zones where i saw some slowing develop and hold on just for a few minutes. we have not seen that in the last couple of weeks.

the early commute very light, still light but there was that slowing. the pattern continues towards the tri valley where we had the 580 out of the altamont, 84 in livermore towards sunol. those are standard slowing we have seen the last two weeks. a lighter volume still means slowing for that portion. contra costa county looks great. at the top of the screen, fog in benicia. that tesla is getting a tow truck sent over there on west 80 in san pablo so watch that fast lane. still need to return some gifts? top retailers that are now refunding customers but telling them to just keep the item. we'll tell you why next. and let's take you out to the futures this morning. it will be a loss on wall street at the open. twitter is down about 8% after the company kicked president trump off the service over the weekend. some investors worrying that view people will go to twitter. you're watching "today in the bay."

>> i don't think we'll need them, kari. >> no, but, you know, we've all been staying at home so we have not been able to go to tahoe as much. if you're going to the beach today, you have to be very careful. we see some dangerous waves in the forecast. i've been watching out for that. at times we have these breakers reaching over 20 feet. we also had these long period of swells where it takes a long time for the next period to come in and you may get drawn out into the ocean or get caught up in rip currents. there's also sneaker waves and the possibility that one of the waves comes up higher than previous waves. if you get swept out into the ocean, the water temperature right now is only 52 degrees. so it's very cold. we also have these king tides that are basically due to the gravitational pull of the moon. it makes the water come further inland. so during the late morning hours we'll have these extremely high

tides, but during the evenings we have extremely low tides. we'll do it all over again tomorrow and that may cause localized flooding during the high tide times. as we check out high temperatures today, it's going to be nice. even though we're starting out with clouds and fog, look at our high temperatures for today and a high of 64 in morgan hill. in the north bay, we're up to the upper 50s. a little bit cooler around antioch where that fog linkers longer. it's not going to be as warm and sunny. as we go through the week, we'll have storm systems passing by. the green shows you where it could be raining. we're for the most part just missing out on these storm systems as the rain just falls apart before it gets here. parts of the north bay may see some scattered showers between tuesday and wednesday. the models are not putting down that much for us as we could only see about a tenth of an inch around healdsburg. notice as you go to the north, those rainfall totals will be

much higher. that's the only chance of rain we get. the rest of the forecast is dry and our temperatures will be warming up for the weekend. it's going to be a nice one. go ahead and make some plans to get outside. we'll talk about what's going on coming up. mike, what's going on with the commute? >> looking at a smooth drive overall, seeing more cars. the volume is building a bit as we look at the green sensors around the bay. a couple of spots we've had a couple of issues. the circle at the top of your screen, west 80 at san pablo a crash blocking the fast lane. eastbound, almost the same area, we have another issue, looks like another crash, no injuries, maybe in the middle lane, though. that could be an issue. bay bridge slow a bit into the san mateo bridge. taillights are westbound. back to you. >> thank you. next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> they say he's in good hands but he needs one arm of the

those trump supporters are planning a demonstration in front of the twitter building because they feel president trump is being treated unfairly by the company. twitter, it is important to mention, twitter was one of the first businesses to begin working from home. so the initial thought was the building would be empty. we've been talking to some employers in the area and they say some employees are working inside of that building. now, trump was banned from the platform on friday following riots at the nation's capitol a couple days before. the president's account has more than 88 million followers. initially the account was banned for 12 hours due to what twitter called severe violations of our civic integrity policy after he used the account to condemn mike pence as his supporters stormed the capitol last week. his account was permanently deleted. neighbors living near the headquarters say they understand the seriousness of this situation but are trusting

police to handle it. >> i think it would be people coming in from outside the city more than likely. there's not been much reports of that so far. >> especially with what happened last wednesday, we cannot afford to be complacent. >> now the san francisco police say they have officers on stand-by for the planned demonstration telling us we will have sufficient resources available to respond to any demonstrations as well as calls for service city-wide. that protest planned for early this morning. things are quiet now, just barricades around twitter headquarter but we'll update you on anything that we see as well as anything that transpires throughout the city. live in san francisco, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> thank you very much. today president-elect joe biden will receive his second dose of the pfizer vaccine. what about you? kris sanchez joins us live in

san jose this morning. a lot of people are asking that very question especially with the pandemic raging. >> yes, a lot of us looking forward to getting our own covid vaccine and there's work under way to make sure the county is ready to make that happen in santa clara as soon as they get the green light. right now about a third of all the county's health care workers are vaccinated, we can't move forward until they are all vaccinated. they're getting vaccinated at work and the county is also setting up a vaccine clinic for county's fire, ems and paramedics. santa clara county pun health leaders today say they are working on adding an additional vaccine clinic to give 6,000 shots a day. at 11:00 today, we may learn where that will be. the testing site in dodgers stadium will turn into a vaccination site as the state moves through the vaccine phases in tiers.

in statian diego, the padres lo will deliver 5,000 shots a day by the end of the week. >> they will drive in, they will roll down their windows, a nurse will come and give them the vaccination, an observer will watch them for 15 minutes to make sure there's no reactions. and then as soon as that row of cars is done, they'll exit the other side of the lot. >> so we'll see if maybe that's what it will look like in santa clara county. covid vaccination is under way for health care workers, care facility employees and residents. by next month vaccinations should begin for workers 75 and older, teachers, fire, ems, police and grocery workers. after that, those 65 and older and transportation workers should get their shots. notifications are being sent out that the vaccine line is starting to move.

that discussion is happening in santa clara county. it's a virtual one but we'll be monitoring it for you and we'll bring you what we know in our midday news. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thanks so much. still not clear how devastating 2020 was to restaurants in san francisco. the golden gate restaurant association tells "forbes" magazine that about half of the city's restaurants did not show any credit card business as of a few months ago. outdoor dining and limited indoor capacity was allowed then. also active health permit figures are currently unavailable. the association tells sf gate restaurant closures may reach as high as 85%. starting this week, restaurants and other small businesses can tap into moment through the paycheck protection program. there are different options from those who received money through the ppp last year compared to this round. san jose will hold a webinar

unanimous consent for the vice president to invoke the 25th amendment. pence will have 24 hours to respond before articles of impeachment are introduced. "today in the bay's" tracie potts is tracking a lot of political upheaval. two weeks to go in this presidency. >> exactly. nine days to be specific. but democrats are determined to do something to get the president out of office early, plan "a," to get the vice president to invoke the 25th amendment, get a majority of the cabinet behind him and remove the president. not likely. sources close to vice president pence say he doesn't want to do that. he wants to ride out the last nine days. so plan "b" is a second impeachment, something we have never seen happen to a president before. as of right now, more than 200 house members, a third of the senate calling for the president's resignation or removal. and both democrats and

republicans disagree on how to get him out of office early. >> every minute and every hour that he is in office represents a clear and present danger. >> the best way for our country, chuck, is for the president to resign and go away as soon as possible. >> we're hearing more republicans calling on the president to resign but based on our sources people close to the president and we're told that's not a lot of people right now say that it is highly unlikely that he will resign. he's just not planning to do it. >> tracie potts live from washington, thank you. former california governor arnold schwarzenegger taking to twitter with a video message about the violence that happened at the capitol. it is going viral with millions of views. schwarzenegger, a republican, recalls his childhood in austria under nazi rule and drew parallels between the violence

then and the violence at the capitol. he denounced wednesday's ins insurrection and criticized president trump. >> what happened just not shattered the windows at the capitol, they shattered the ideals that we take for granted. they did not just break down the doors of the building that housed american democracy, they trampled the very principles of which our country was founded. >> the former governor compared wednesday's mob to the night of broken glass, that was a night in 1938 when a mob of nazi sympathizers stormed jewish neighborhoods in germany destroying jewish-owned businesses, rounding up jewish men for concentration camps and killing dozens of people in the process. schwarzenegger called wednesday's events america's day of broken glass. state lawmakers get back to business today. the legislature begins its 2021 session in sacramento. among the items on the agenda,

bills related to the pandemic including extending protections for renters, maybe redirecting decisionmaking authority away from governor newsom and quick action on one of his budget proposals, a $600 stimulus payment for low-income californians. the session was supposed to begin last week but was pushed back due to the surge in covid-19 cases. high tide is expected to mix with large waves this morning on the coastline. heavy surf over the weekend triggered several rescue efforts. meteorologist kari hall is tracking the forecast for us, talking about the gravitational pull. let's start out with "today in the bay's" bob redell. there were a lot of problems on the beaches this morning, bob. >> unfortunately yes, right now two people are still missing off the shoreline in the pacific ocean. good morning to you. the national weather service has not extended the high surf warning that we saw yesterday. but they are warning about the possibility of light coastal

flooding this morning. not only are you going to still have large waves up to 18 feet, but also the king tide. so those two forces coming together. you could see some flooding. a woman is still missing after she and a man were swept into the ocean while looking for muscles on the rocks at pa pescadero state beach yesterday. a witness was able to save the man, he was taken to the hospital. unfortunately for her she was too far out and went under. sunday afternoon, a large wave swept a san jose man into the ocean. this hassed in the marin headlands off point bonita. the man and two friends were walking along the bluffs when this wave came and swept them off the rocks. the coast guard and other first responders had to call off the search last night. they're supposed to resume this morning. yesterday afternoon the waves flipped four to five small sail boats off santa cruz. in one case, 20 people including 12 children were thrown into the ocean. when santa cruz fire arrived, 7

of the 12 children were pulled from the water. the firefighters rescued the remaining five. no one was hurt. everyone is okay. reporting live in foster city, bob redell, "today in the bay." now we'll send it over to meteorologist kari hall. kari? >> bob, you were talking about those big waves. those have been driven by the storms off the coast. we also have king tides, which is a higher gravitational pull due to the alignment of the sun, the moon and the earth. so we're actually during the winter months closer to the sun and it's also the way they are aligned, it's pulling up that water and making it come further to the inland areas. we will see those king tides moving in for the coastal areas between late morning as well as again tomorrow morning right before noon. now today we're still looking at those big breakers coming in, but we also have these long periods of swells. that means you have a wave that comes up, but it takes several seconds before the next wave

comes up. so you're drawn further out into the ocean. you may get also caught up in a rip current that could pull you under as well. some of those sneaker waves means one of the waves comes up higher than the other ones, so you need to stay well away from the coastline. with those water temperatures only at 52 degrees, that water is cold. you have a maximum of two hours before hypothermia sets in. so a lot of concerns there along the coastline. with the king tides, that causes the coastal flooding. once again, the time this morning along san francisco and along the coastline will be at about 9:14. you also have extremely low tides during the evening hours. so we're watching out for that before the inland areas pretty quiet and calm day. after the fog clears up, we have sunshine and some nice warm temperatures. the fog does linger a bit longer in the tri valley and parts of the east bay. it will be cooler there. notice what happens as we go through the week.

this shows you the wide view of what the rain could look like. as we loop it throughout the week, not much rain for the bay area. a lot of that rain stays to the north of us. we see some dry weather and a warming trend. i wanted to show you the seven-day high temperature forecast for napa. a cool start to the week. look at the weekend. some highs up to 70 degrees. it's going to be so nice. we can already start to make plans to get outside. maybe go for a hike or enjoy more sunshine if you didn't get a chance to this past weekend. as we head over to you, mike, we're getting out the door to work this morning, how is the commute looking? >> maybe an issue for folks coming down from the east shore freeway. i spelled something out, and it wasn't so the kids couldn't tell, it was these initials here. spdr, san pablo dam road, that's the trouble spot this morning. a number of crashes reported. the last of them leaves one vehicle in the roadway, i think a tow truck just arrived. those sensors turning to red the

last couple of minutes. the east bay looking good so far. more slowing on the bay bridge span, no problems. recovery through fremont as an earlier crash cleared around the dumbarton bridge and here's palo alto, the other side of the bay looking very smooth and very nice. back to you. >> all right. thank you. happening now, pope francis changing church law to allow women to do more during mass while reaffirming women cannot be priests. pope francis changing church laws to allow more women to do things during mass, including reading the eucharistic gospel and serve as ministers. coming up, police waiting for people to gather outside of twitter headquarters. plus -- >> what does a dinosaur have to do with whether people would be

before the president's account@realdonald trump has more than 88 million followers. originally the account was banned for 12 hours because of severe violations of the civic integrity policy after he used the account to condemn vice president mike pence. as the protesters stormed the capitol, that account was suspended due to inciting the risk of more damage. it appears to be a normal monday in the city other than those barricades, there's just one lone police officer or cruiser parked in front of this building. all is quiet. we'll be here for the remainder of the morning just to keep an eye on things as that demonstration is planned for later this morning. live in san francisco, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> thank you very much. president-elect joe biden today set to receive his second dose of pfizer's covid-19 vaccine. he received his first dose back on december 21st along with his
