evening news," president biden said the payments will phase out based on income. >> it's somewhere between an individual making up to 75 and phasing out and a couple making up to 150 and it phasing out. but again, i'm wide open on what that is. >> reporter: the president admits this bill will not raise the minimum wage but democrats are planning to add new child payments up to $3,600 paid monthly starting in july. republicans argue the $1.9 trillion plan costs too much. >> sometimes a cure is worse than the disease. >> reporter: stimulus talks continue as the senate prepares for the trump impeachment trial to begin tomorrow. >> i think this is a very bad idea. 45-plus republicans are going to vote early on that it's unconstitutional. >> reporter: a handful of republicans say they'll be impartial jurors. arguments on both sides and make the decision that i think is right.

>> reporter: those arguments may or may not include witnesses. >> there will already be over 100 witnesses present and those will be the house and senate members. >> reporter: but getting 17 republicans to convict still seems unlikely. now when it comes to the witnesses, senate democrats in charge of all of this is a they're going to defer to the house managers, the prosecutors on whether or not they want to call witnesses but those managers haven't said yesterday. laura, cierra? >> all right, thanks for watching washington for us. it is 6:03 right now. score one for san mateo and maybe score seven, that's the number of times the san mateo native tom brady has now won the super bowl. in fact, he's now won more trophies on his own than any nfl team. t.b. 12 led the buccaneers to a

dominating 31-7 win yesterday over kansas city and super bowl lv. the 43-year-old brady threw three touchdown passes including two to long-time teammate rob gronkowski. brady also won his fifth super bowl mvp award, further distancing himself from any other player who has ever played in the nfl. there are concerns about the big game triggering a surge in our bay area as well. bob redell, what are health experts saying about that here at home. >> reporter: good morning to you, cierra. an infectious disease specialist at ucsf believes yesterday's game in tampa could have been a super spreader event for covid-19. dr. peter chin hong tells the "business insider" the precautions taken at the game were not enough. 25,000 fans were spread out in the stadium that normally holds 75,000 people. and by the way, 7,500 fans were vaccinated health care workers invited as special guests of the game and

the stadium is open air which is which causes germs to travel past the six-foot social distance guideline. there was a lot of drinking, most likely going on, which means fewer people were following social safety protocols, and nevermind the photos and videos we've seen of people partying outside the stadium in tampa without masks and zero social distance. then there's this nugget, the cdc reports that florida has the highest number of uk variant covid cases among the 50 states, that variant is believed to be more transmissible and poshlly potentially more dangerous. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you, bob. 6:05 right now. we're expecting to get more clarification from santa clara county on its stance on indoor religious services following friday's supreme court ruling. justices are allowing limited indoor church services to resume.

i know because my children were inside, so i know that, and i was desperate trying to get them out. knowing they were safe, it was like a big weight off of my shoulders and just, god, thank god. >> police located the children in the bay view about four hours later, nowhere near the pacific heights neighborhood where it all unfolded. the carjackers are still on the loose. new video of one of several side shows authorities say took place yesterday in the east bay. this one that you're seeing happened in oakland on high street near interstate 8808 because drivers could not exit, chp says traffic backed up on the freeway, but officers did manage to stop some of those cars involved. a lot of victims from the czu complex fires may be wondering how they go about rebuilding. santa cruz county is holding two virtual town hall this is week to talk about the permit process. several services can help to streamline things. staff will also stay online after the presentation they say

[ laughter ] >> this one hit close to home,

it was so funny to me and the company took note as well. zillow tweeted at dan levy, "snl" host saying "see you at home." today is a new day. a lot of people will be talking about the commercials hopefully as they take a walk. is the weather going to participate and make that a good one? >> yes, absolutely. i know a lot of people are going to be talking about all that went on yesterday including that halftime show. so you know, we're all just sharing our opinions. let's get a look at what's going on right now. we have some fog to start out over san jose, some low clouds rolling by and that's what we'll see even into this afternoon, it's not going to clear out very much at least our temperatures will be coming up, headed into the low 60s as we check out what to expect all around the bay area, we're going to see near normal high temperatures, this is about where we should be, reaching 64 in morgan hill and low 60s as well for parts of the north bay, oakland reaching 60

and san francisco looking at a high of about 58 degrees. now as we go through this forecast, a lot more changes ahead, so we are going to see clouds today, maybe a couple of spotty sprinkles but overall rain doesn't get here until thursday and then another chance of rain on saturday. so we'll have a couple of very weak storm systems passing by. the first one that comes in on thursday mostly looks to bring us about 0.1" to 0.25" of rain. even though it's not exactly the amount we need, it's nice to see some rain chances and a change in that weather pattern. as we are going into the week for the sierra, looking at mostly about seven to ten inches of snow. there may be spots in some resorts up to about 15 inches of snow so that will be nice. as we go through the forecast our temperatures don't change too much. our highs stay in the upper 50s we'll see chances of showers coming in on thursday, and then again on saturday, hopefully that second round of rain brings

us a better chance of more measurable rain even though i know it's right in the middle of the weekend. mike, what's going on now the morning commute? >> kari, right in the middle of the bay bridge we had that backup now things are starting to clear. let's start in the south bay, it's still back north 101. cars are moving, could you tell it's not one line but alum rock we show the accident crash scene still on the backup on our maps. backed up to tully road. alternate 280 to 87. we don't usual suggest that as an alternate but that will be the way to get you off of 101 there in the south bay. the rest of the bay looks really good. recovery on the span for the bay bridge but at the toll plaza we have the backup because the metering lights were turned on to slow and clear the span itself. it works but there is your backup. back to you. >> all right, thanks, mike. coming up, cierra, introducing us to a bay area changemaker. >> exactly. i spoke with an individual that

leads a san jose agency looking to uplift african-americans. i'll introduce you to him coming up next.

one of the most consequential policymakers in recent american history with deep bay area ties has died. george shultz died in his home on the stanford campus at the hoover institute. he was 100 years old. shultz was the labor and treasury secretary under president richard nixon before

spending more than six years with president ronald reagan. in the surrounding years he and his wife charlotte were fixtures in san francisco. reaction is pouring in from leaders who admired shultz. house speaker nancy pelosi wrote "the world has lost a revered statesman and brilliant public servant with the passing of secretary george shultz." so true. in honor of black history month, we're recognizing black americans in our community making history, calling them our changemakers. every monday this month we're going to recognize those changemakers and give you a peek into their world. this week we're honoring the leader of a san jose nonprofit. i spoke with milan balanton, executive director of the african-american community service agency in san jose. the agency serves as a one-stop shop for resources for those living in santa clara county in addition to serving and offering

information in health and wellness, connections to educational opportunities, the center played a critical role for african-americans when 2020 dealt the community a one-two punch. the center was there to meet the needs of those impacted by covid-19. balanton said their request for aid increased by nearly 40%. everything from ppe to personal care items like diapers and foods like non-perishables and months later, when the video of george floyd losing his life at the hands of a minneapolis police officer, the agency was then once again there to help offering mental health resources for those working through their feelings in that situation. >> san jose alone over 1 million people. we were meeting new faces and new communities that didn't know we existed but the issues existed. so those are some of the things that our board had to tackle with as well as our staff members and our team grew in regards to service-based

initiatives that we took on. >> and to this day, the agency continues to address the needs of the community, so to milan balanton and his team at aacsa we are grateful for your dedication and helping those in nasa astronaut victor glover as part of "today" show's changemaker series. glover is now in the midst of a six-month stay at the international space station. coming up at 8:00 a.m. he'll talk about his place in history as well as those who have paved the way for him. good stuff there. 6:26 right now. a boat docked on contra costa's bethel island catches fire. up next the firefight and the growing concerns for the boat's owner. you're watching "today in the bay."

>> and i'm cierra johnson. we'll have a look at traffic in a moment. we'll start with weather with meteorologist kari hall. good morning. >> good morning. it's a chilly start for many of us as we're waking up and looking out the window. that is a beautiful shot, a live camera in walnut creek, and then as we go into today more clouds moving in and we'll linger throughout today as our temperatures will be right at about where we should be for this time of year but then we'll start to see some rain coming back in the forecast on thursday, but until then it's dry as we reach near 60 degrees for today. we'll talk more about this in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. mike, any issues for the morning commute? >> yes, kari, live picture to show you, two key spots in recovery mode. the first san jose north 101 a big jam of cars starting to move better. all lanes clear north 101 at alum rock. still backed up to story.

the other live shot is the bay bridge toll plaza the metering lights turned on before 6:00 due to a crash on the span. that is cleared. we'll have i backup for a while. divers are prepared to search the waters near bethel island after a boat fire. the owner of the 30-foot cabin cruiser lives on board and is not yet fully accounted for. east contra costa fire responded to the call just after 10:00 last night at bethel island marina. still no word on what caused that fire. another mass vaccination site is set to open in the bay area. this one in the south bay. "today in the bay's" kris sanchez joins us live at levi's stadium, providing thousands of shots today, starting tomorrow. >> reporter: i'm the first one at the tailgate party. the vaccination is not drive through in the parking lot. it's happening inside the stadium itself starting tomorrow. these are some of the nurses who prepped levi's stadium for

tomorrow's opening. levi's management provided the video, we should mention that. tomorrow day one up to 5,000 people will roll up their sleeves. when the site is up to full capacity of 15,000 shots a day levi's will be the largest mass vaccination site in the state, open to anyone 65 and older who lives and works in santa clara county. no walk-ups, though, you have to make an appointment through the county at secfreevax.org. the oakland coliseum site is opening up next week for alameda county residents. because it's a federal partnership, we could see national guard soldiers helping with that effort. because the virus is mutating, mass vaccination sites are critical, experts say. >> we need to vaccinate as many people as possible in a short amount of time as possible. that is not only because of the pandemic in general but because of the specter of the variants cycl resistant to the vaccines.

>> reporter: also this week the federal government will push out a million vaccines to 6,500 pharmacies, eventually 40,000 pharmacies nationwide will have covid vaccines, including walgreens and rite aid, walmart, costco and grocery stores are getting some and cvs stores will start vaccinating people on thursday. that includes three cvs locations here in the bay area. the thing to remember is you still have to qualify for the state and your local county and you have to have an appointment for almost every one of these situations. there are a few walk-up clinics but best to assume you need an appointment. check out your county website for that. in santa clara, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> are they going to have enough vaccines to keep up with it all? >> reporter: this is part of the biden administration's effort to vaccinate this many people in the first 100 days.

johnson & johnson is going to be seeking emergency use approval by the end of the month, that should increase supply if that is approved. also we know pfizer says it can increase production capacity by up to 50%, so we could see >> all right, yes, seems like a lot of people are waiting right now so we'll wait and see and get it going. thanks so much, kris. a new step to bring san francisco students back to the classroom, schools and teachers unions reached a tentative agreement but lots of people all the way up to san francisco city attorney are wondering if it will speed up the process. "today in the bay's" pete suratos is live in the city. >> good morning to you, cierra. one reason for the skepticism is in the tentative agreement. here are the details on the agreement between the teachers union and the san francisco unified school district. limited school instruction if

the city drops from the purple tier into the red tier and calling on all staff returning to the school or school work sites to have the opportunity to get vaccinated at the recommended dosage. if san francisco drops into the orange tier this tentative agreement says the students can return regardless of vaccine availability. here's what the teachers union and some parents are saying about this agreement that's in place. >> this is a perfect example of how the city of san francisco can help us bring our students back, by helping get the vaccines into the arms of school workers. >> while we are hopeful and glad to see that this, you know, to see this announcement today, i think we're all feeling that there's probably more work to be done to make it a deal, an agreement that actually brings kids back this spring. >> reporter: remember, the city of san francisco is still in the midst of this lawsuit with the san francisco unified school district regarding reopening. the city attorney calls this tentative agreement more of the

same and the prerequisite for vaccination isn't needed if cdc protocols are in place but that agreement could be ratified by the board of education by february 16th. reporting live, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> thanks so much, pete. 6:36 right now. peninsula native tom brady making it harder to argue that he isn't nfl's greatest ever. in tampa bay brady and the buccaneers dominated last year's champs, kansas city chiefs. the chiefs came in as favorites but super bowl lv was all brady and the bucs. he threw for three touchdowns. including two scoring passes to his long time compatriot rob gronkowski. ta pa bay won it going away 31-9. brady wins a super bowl for the seventh time and super bowl mvp award for the fifth time. mostly maskless

celebrations in surrounding cities following that win. tampa bay celebrates a championship for the first time in nearly 20 years. here's tom brady talking about how all the hard work really paid off. >> just really proud of all the guys, proud of all the coaches, the effort we put in. we knew we were playing a great football team tonight and got the job done. if you want to get this far, you got to get the job done and we did it. >> nice to see. maybe this puts into perspective the 42-year-old brady has won more super bowls than every nfl team. he's got seven titles while the steelers and patriots each have six. coming up, marcus washington will join us in about 15 minutes with highlights from the halftime show as well that was entertaining and the dog getting a lot of attention following the puppy bowl. and hopping today, oakland's new police chief will officially be sworn in as the city's top cop. mayor libby schaaf made the

announcement friday leronne armstrong will be oakland's new chief. he's been with the police department for 20 years and recently served as deputy chief. at noon today, oakland leaders will talk about new efforts to battle the surge of recent crime in the city's chinatown neighborhood. this unsettling surveillance video shows a violent attack last week that later led to an arrest. it's just one of more than a dozen recent cases. as part of today's news conference, leaders will announce a new award to find those responsible in three other violent attacks. new overnight, one san jose family had their sleep interrupted when a car slammed into their garage. it happened just after midnight on center road not far from monterey. a woman living in the home heard a loud boom, rushed out and saw a black audi had crashed into her garage. police showed up and this video shows a person being taken into custody. coming up next, scott mcgrew, a big week again in washington.

right now 6:42, headed out the door in the north bay, as we look at our temperatures, it's starting out cool and we have patchy fog. the rest of the day we'll see a lot of clouds but warming temperatures headed into the low 60s. we'll talk about what's ahead for the week, coming up in a few minutes. a change in palo alto, low clouds and fog, just a note as folks head to the peninsula on the san mateo bridge where it slows driving toward that lower visibility as well as folks avoiding the bay bridge. the earlier crash has cleared from that span but we have slowing in san jose and a new

crash down there, coming up. >> thanks, kari and mike. 6:42. president biden says iran has to make the first move if it wants the u.s. to lift sanctions against it. >> iran has been refining more uranium allowed under the iranian nuclear deal. >> that's right. the deal that the trump white house had abandoned. good morning. our allies did not abandon that deal but iran responded to the u.s. breaking the deal by breaking the rules on how much and how refined that uranium would be. the u.s. responded with new sanctions. in his first network interview just before the super bowl yesterday afternoon, president biden said the impetus was on the iranians to stop this behavior before we would drop the new sanctions or return to

the nuclear deal. iran says it won't stop until the sanctions are lifted. in other words, both sides are saying the other side has to take the first step. back here at home, the new white house covid team will meet in public today virtually. president biden not expected to attend, leaving it up to the appointed scientists. we're getting word south africa stopped its testing of the astrazeneca vaccine saying it's not effective enough against that region's virus mutations. normally we would just concentrate on the president's first 100 days but of course the previous president is still in the news occupying a great deal of the headlines. as former president trump's second impeachment trial gets under way tomorrow. it is expected to last through the end of the week. donald trump charged with incitement of insurrection against the united states. some in congress have started stated trying someone after they leave office is unconstitutional. not only does the constitution not forbid it, we've done it before albeit against someone who wasn't a former president. one of the republicans for the

top legal advisers team says yes of course it is constitutional, writing an editorial in the "wall street journal," chuck cooper points out if you remove somebody from office via impeachment, then bar them from ever having office again, the person you're punishing is by definition a former officer holder. "given that the constitution permits the senate to impose the penalty of permanent disqualification only on former officeholders, it defies logic to suggest that the senate is prohibited from trying and convicting former officeholders." you'll recall in the days leading up to the first impeachment, we heard from a number of high-level officials and military officers about trump's attempts to subvert the election. we may hear from fewer eyewitnesses this time around because as adam schiff pointed out on "meet the press" on sunday, the senators themselves were eyewitnesses to the attack on the capitol. >> when the managers walk on the floor of the senate, there will

already be over 100 witnesses present and those will be the house and senate members, whether you need additional witnesses will be a strategic call for the house managers >> we'll be paying attention to the rub-up to the impeachment and paying close attention to president biden as well. i'll be on twitter, ou very muc. trending this morning a lot of historic firsts at this year's super bowl. >> that'arcus washington joins us with more. marcus? >> we have to talk about this one, sarah thomas becoming the first female referee during a super bowl game. so everyone, a round of applause and as i said earlier, about time. all right, another first to talk about you. the inauguration breakout star amanda gorman reading the poem before the game started, gave tribute to an educator, nurse manager, and marine corps veteran. also before the clock started, grammy award winning h.e.r.,
