is mardi gras, what would have been mardi gras and they're seeing icy conditions, and i-10 shut down as well as the heavy snow moving across parts of the midwest. that coming along with temperatures that are in the teens and single digits. i mean, that is just brutal. dallas is at 7 degrees right now. it is 10 degrees as we take a look at what's happening in arkansas, and then even up to parts of the northeast, really bitterly cold temperatures. so you'll be seeing more about that. meanwhile, we're over here oblivious. i would equate those kind of temperatures moving into the bay area, we wouldn't know what to do with ourselves. so they're seeing some really record cold temperatures and here we are looking at highs in the low 60s. don't call your family and brag today because they'll probably be really mad at you. we're going to see some light showers starting out this morning, and we're going to see it for the most part clearing up, although the clouds will still linger for today and our rain chances for mostly before

noon but then the rest of the day is looking pretty good, once again as we head toward those low 60s, and we'll see for most of us, getting about 0.1 of an inch of rain, not a heavy downpour but it's the last we'll get until we get another storm later in the week that's going to bring the sierra some snow between friday and saturday, looks like we could see at least another foot of snow there, while we're going to see some scattered showers moving in late thursday night into friday, and temperatures for much of the week reaching into the low 60s and it does look like we'll be dry this upcoming weekend. mike, heading out the door this morning, any problems with the commute? >> no, no complaints especially none to our friends in texas, illinois and new york. the roadways with the note with the mist out there, we may have an issue. a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza, you still have that sheen on the roadway, but you can see plenty of the roadway, watch, as these cars us, right behind the cars

there's a little bit of a tail there as the water gets kicked up. that is the biggest issue right now, the volume quite manageable ads we look at the speed sensors, coming into the area, no delays, the earlier issue 580 at golf links has finally been cleared by the tow truck that was on scene without further incident. green sensors out of the altamont pass and south county. watch those speeds. it could be slick. back to you. >> thanks, mike. 6:22. coming up next, we continue our ongoing series highlighting a bay area changemaker, as we celebrate black history month. next, meet the man helping transform the lives of hundreds of black boys in the east bay. you're watching "today in the bay."

welcome back. california's new unified statewide system for the covid-19 vaccine is rolling out to more and more counties. when you are eligible, that's where you'll make an appointment. consumer investigator chris chmura is going to show us how. ♪♪ >> you have two choices to make a covid-19 vaccine appointment through the state. you can go online or call. if you choose the phone, dial 833-422-4255. if you want to to it online, go to myturn.ca.gov. first, pick your preferred language. next, certify that you're an adult and give consent. after that, select what county you live in, add your age and if you work, share what kind of job you do. that matters because some essential workers get priority over others.

when you click continue, it will tell you if you're eligible and if there are any local vaccine appointments. if not, you'll see this page, if you're eligible you'll see this page and begin the process of booking an appointment.ddress or zip code. after you type in an address or zip code, you'll get a list of vaccination sites. when you find a place that works for you, click the blue button to find out when appointments are available. from there, you'll use a calendar to pick a day and complete your registration. if you have trouble booking an appointment, you can call the phone number we mentioned in the beginning. the state says it's open monday through friday from 8:00 to 8:00 and 8:00 to 5:00 on weekends. our changemaker series continues this morning with a focus on faith and colonial williamsburg, virginia, black history is in the process of being unearthed. archaeologists there are excavating one of the country's oldest black baptist churches. this morning craig melvin shares the history of the church whose congregation was founded by those enslaved and freed blacks.

we spoke with him about the descendants of that church and why the excavation of the church is so important to them. worship at this church now are being involved in the process, the excavation process, they're sifting through the sand. they're helping the archaeologists there on site so they're literally bringing their history to life before their eyes. >> and you can watch that entire story that's coming up for you this morning on the "today" show. it's certainly going to be one to watch. i think it's so cool to be able to trace back history and just unearth it literally. >> yes. and share the stories, too. the vaccine shortage sadly boy is hitting close to home. up next, the bay area sites now closing because they don't have the supply. plus, the push to recall governor newsom seemingly turning a new corner. why california's leaders may be thinking differently about the campaign against him. and the snow has been coming

down in the sierra. chp out on patrol shows you this cruiser really in the thick of it. chains required most likely as it continues to come down, although 80 is open right now, all clear. i was just there, made it back for monday morning just to be here for "today in the bay." 6:28 right now.

nefertiti: as a young girl i was always comparing myself to my sisters. they were always thin and i wasn't... i ate a lot of food. and then after i had my son it was really difficult to lose the baby weight, and everything took so much time and energy and i didn't have that. and then i tried noom, it was easy and it was super convenient. it's effective, i'd say it's life changing. my my name is nefertiri and noom worked for me. visit noom.com and lose the weight for good. right now at 6:30, out of vaccine.

san francisco closing its largest vax nation site today, and that's not the only place the city is running low. we've got a live report straight ahead. as the third hour of "today in the bay" continues right now. a very good monday morning to you. presidents' day as well. i'm laura garcia. >> and i'm marcus washington. kris sanchez is live at levi's stadium this morning. levi's has vaccines for now but not necessarily the case in san francisco. >> reporter: yes. i'm at the santa clara county fairgrounds because i wanted to tell you what happened here over the weekend. the county had to give away some doses because they were going to expire because people had appointments and just didn't bother to show up. so about 300 of those doses thawed out and set aside for health care workers and those 65 and older were going to expire, the county notified anyone over 65 and notified any county

worker who could show up, the good news no dose was wasted. san francisco has delivered more than 151,000 doses, nearly half of the over 65 population has at least one shot, but now mass vaccination site at the moscone center has to shut down until at least february 22nd because the health department isn't getting enough doses. the city college site will reopen friday but just for second doses. the head of san francisco's emergency management echoed mayor london breed's frustration. >> we got hit this week with a very low allocation meaning that we can't continue operations. >> today marin county will start vaccinating residents 65 and up. the bad news is the county is already warning people they're facing vaccine shortages, too, and it could take a while to get an appointment. tomorrow the mass vaccination site at the oakland coliseum

will open up with the goal of vaccinating 6,000 people a day. that site is a partnership with the federal government. you might be wondering how is it some sites are shutting down because they don't have enough vaccines, some sites are starting to ramp up and open up, because the supply for the coliseum site is separate, coming separately from the doses that are allocated to the state and then down to our county levels, so they are in addition to. we'll see how that plays out but hopefully the supply chain will improve in the coming days so everybody who wants a shot can get one. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> we're on a roll and came to a stop. got to get it going again. here is a closer look how california is doing distributing the vaccines. according to new data from the state health department california received more than 8 million of those doses, some of them are still being shipped and

about 75% of them, talking about just under 6 million there have actually been administered, a little more than half of all vaccine recipients are seniors 65 and older. people 18 to 49 are second followed by people 50 to 64. of course most of the people in those groups are front line workers. ac transit is joining the effort offering free shuttle service to the coliseum for those getting the vaccine. riders just need to show proof of an appointment, that service starts tomorrow. we know there's a lot to keep track of with this. so to cut through some of the confusion, nbc launched a new website called planyourvaccine.com. it tells you how, where, and when to get your covid vaccine and interactive map to show you the closest vaccination sites. just go to planyourvaccine.com. the l.a. police department launching an internal investigation after allegations officers shared a valentine's day image that mocked the death of george floyd. the photo was attached with the caption that read "you take my breath away." according to the "l.a. times" an

officer filed a complaint about the image and will be interviewed by officials today. the department will also be looking into whether the image was created by a police employee. the police chief told "the times" the claims were substantiated. in a tweet, the department said in part it will have zero tolerance for this type of behavior. as the push to recall governor gavin newsom seems to turn the corner, campaigners are getting a financial boost. the state republican party over the weekend gave the campaign $125,000. organizers recently said that they've already gathered the minimum number of signatures to qualify the measure, with four weeks to go to submit them. but those signatures must still be verified. recent polls have suggested somewhere around 35% of californians would vote to recall newsom. now to a live look in tahoe g,here we're seeing some showers here in the bay area. okay, nevermind, we're not going to show you that right now. take my word for it. i actually snuck up, i headed out on friday morning and just

to get some fresh air out there and yeah, the snow was coming down on saturday but at least i had my window to come back to work yesterday, kari, to drive back down. >> yes. >> is it going to continue up there as we're seeing rain here? >> i just saw the video. >> yes, we tweeted it out. >> we're going to get rain here and winter weather advisories throughout the morning. it was cool to see what it looked like there and still looks like as the snow continues for some of those upper elevations. here in the bay area, we're seeing some light rain this morning. of course, we've been talking about what's happening here, as well as the big snowstorm that's moving across the south right now. all this purple is heavy snow and the pink shows where there's a wintry mix and they're seeing that along the coast in louisiana and some of those areas across the south that are not used to dealing with some winter weather. that coming along with

temperatures that are in the teens and even single digits, so we'll continue to follow that, and we can also look for those pictures on social media. mike, what is it looking like right now headed out the door for work? >> it looks like i'm going to just enjoy the pictures and not the purple there. looking out toward the roadways, a live look shows you the golden gate bridge. we have the misty conditions, so slick roadways and that will be an issue. you need your windshield wipers out there and the rain is not heavy and wiper fluid to assist in case there's smears on the windshield. the maps to the north there's a little fog coming up through novato there and the arrow shows you the bay bridge, no backup, no slowing not even on the incline. it's lighter traffic today and a holiday for many, following the police activity off of putnam and antioch. bob redell reported from over there. meanwhile the rest of the commute the freeways move very smoothly. back to you. 6:37 this morning. coming up next, meet the east bay man helping hundreds of

young men create a brighter future. plus -- >> we will continue to turn our focus towards the biden white house. we'll have the latest from washington, coming up. and this is no laughing matter. the laughing emoji not cool anymore. up next, who is saying that and the thumbs up or thumbs down from our own social media expert. you're watching "today in the bay." i'm morgan, and there's more to me than hiv. more love,... more adventure,...

more community. but with my hiv treatment,... there's not more medicines in my pill. i talked to my dswitched to. fewer medicines with dovato. prescription dovato is for some adults who are starting hiv-1 treatment or replacing their current hiv-1 regimen. with... just 2 medicines... in 1 pill,... dovato is as effective as a 3-drug regimen... to help you reach and stay undetectable. research shows people who take hiv treatment as prescribed... and get to and stay undetectable... can no longer transmit hiv through sex. don't take dovato if you're allergic to any of its ingredients... or if you take dofetilide. hepatitis b can become harder to treat while taking dovato. do not stop dovato without talking your doctor,... as your hepatitis b may worsen or become life-threatening. serious or life-threatening side effects can occur, including... allergic reactions, lactic acid buildup, and liver problems. if you have a rash and other symptoms of an allergic reaction,... stop taking dovato and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, including hepatitis b or c,... or if you are, may be, or plan to be pregnant.

your doctor may prescribe a different medicine... than dovato if you plan to be pregnant or if pregnancy is confirmed during the first trimester. dovato may harm your unborn baby. use effective birth control... while taking dovato. most common side effects are headache, nausea,... diarrhea, trouble sleeping, tiredness, and anxiety. so much goes... into who i am. hiv medicine is one part of it. ask your doctor about dovato—i did.

right now at 6:40, it's a day off for a lot of kids, a holiday on presidents' day and in fairfield headed to the park today we start out in the upper 50s. some mist and drizzle this morning but we should get some peeks of sunshine later today. we'll talk about this and our microclimates in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. and really because of that vacation for a lot of businesses as well, we have lighter traffic. you see here at the bay bridge toll plaza, it's not the volume of traffic, it's the wet roads that are the concern, even kicking up behind the cars that are traveling at speed across that bridge. show you a bigger view, coming up. thanks so much, kari and mike. 6:41. the second impeachment trial for donald trump is over. the former president was found not guilty. scott mcgrew, not the end of the former president's legal challenges that he'll face. >> i don't think it is.

we've detailed it in the past some of the possible accusations that he may have to face ahead in the future, related to his taxes and accusations from women, and several republicans hoping to end the impeachment trial said perhaps he should be tried in criminal court for the attack on the capitol instead. but in the trial, where democrats were hoping to convict him, they did not, though in the final vote, seven republicans voted to convict, six more than in the first trial, and the most senators to vote to convict a member of their own party in all of american history. >> instead of preventing a dangerous situation, president trump created one. >> our constitution and our country is more important than any one person. i voted to convict president trump because he is guilty.eade mcconnell said trump was guilty as well, after he voted to acquit the former president.

in mcconnell's reasoning, trump was unquestionably guilty of the charges, but the charges should not have been brought in the first place. >> there's no question, none that president trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. no question about it. but in this case, the question is moot, because former president trump is constitutionally not eligible for conviction. >> mcconnell is really splitting hairs here. trump was impeached while he was still president. the primary person behind the delay of the trial pushing it past the end of trump's term was mitch mcconnell himself. but one way or the other that wraps up the trump impeachment. there's still little squabbles. lindsey graham spoke somehow of impeaching the vice president for her support of black lives

matter but most of washington is ready to move on. we'll get back to covering the president of the united states. mr. biden will have a new push for his stimulus plan hoping for but not counting on republican support as well as new gun laws as we mark the third anniversary of the deadliest school shooting in history at marjory stoneman douglas in 2018. we are talking about what's happening at the white house. find me on twitter @scottmcgrew. >> thanks, scott. happening today, fans will be able to join friends and family honoring the life of cessry tyson. the emmy award winner died january 28th at the age of 96. tyson's family organized a distanced public viewing in harlem today. her funeral is expected to be held privately. in honor of black history month we honor black americans each and every day, we call them our changemakers and every week

we are recognizing those changemakers and give you a peek into their world. >> "today in the bay's" cierra johnson joins us live to introduce us to this week's changemaker. >> reporter: good morning. sakima williams is an educator, out of oakland, and he spends his time uplifting and encouraging and empowering black boys not only in the classroom but for hours outside of the classroom as well. take a listen to his story. >> it is very difficult as a young black boy to create the roadmap yourself. >> reporter: it took a trauma filled educational experience for a student for this area educator to realize he could do better. >> at schools where the administrative staff and the deans didn't understand young black boys so i spent a lot of time being suspended from schools. >> reporter: and that drive to provide a better experience led sakima williams, better known as mr. kimo, to open the eyes as well as the hearts of students at claremont middle school as an

art and design teacher. >> so those really cool discussions that we had when i was in college is what i brought into the classroom and lo and behold, seventh graders can have collegiate level debate. >> reporter: the work doesn't end in the classroom. for years, mr. kimo also worked with african-american male achievement, an afterschool program started in oakland focused on black males in the district. >> i can't overstate the importance of a strong, positive black role model or figure in your life. >> reporter: the program aims to provide academic support, increase educational engagement and close the achievement gap. mr. kimo through song, conversation and encouragement is there every step of the way to make sure his students, a group of kings, finds success in the classroom and beyond. >> we have an obligation as black men to go back into our community and help shepherd these brothers along who don't have that figure in their life.

>> reporter: and like so many educators, sakima williams has had to translate the lessons virtually. he says the technology has given him another way to connect with students and allowed his students to connect with black males around the state and around the country, just broadening their horizons so for all of your efforts, we thank you and that is why you are this week's changemaker. i'm cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> round of applause he gets for what he's doing is opening the door to opportunity and we love seeing that and we thank him. thank you, cierra. a little sports news here. the unseen opponent still front and center as baseball returns to the stage this week. the covid pandemic means teams will have to be ready to adjust. giants pitchers and catchers report for spring training tomorrow in scottsdale, arizona. last season, they just missed the playoffs. a's fans will gladly point out oakland won the a.l. west last season but the roster has changed a lot this year.

oakland's pitchers and catchers report as well tomorrow to their mesa spring home. both teams are scheduled to play their spring openers february 28th. trending this morning, there is an all new fallout following the tampa bay super bowl association. buccaneers star tom brady is asked to apologize, for throwing the super bowl trophy during the boat parade. the daughter of the trophy designer said brady's move was disrespectful and disgraced the trophy and did you actually catch this over the weekend? brady's condition during the parade was a hot topic during "saturday night live." take a look. >> yes, i saw you throwing the super bowl trophy from one boat to another. >> oh, yeah. that was awesome. i've been bringing this bad boy around with me pretty much everywhere. she's a little banged up, but she still works. >> they know how to bring out the laughs. that was a good one. no indication if the real tom brady will apologize for anything, including crushing the hopes of chiefs fans.

certainly probably not going to apologize for that i'm sure. also trending for you this morning this one no laughing matter. >> not anymore. reports say that generation z is deeming the laugh emoji and the laughing while crying emojis as just old. they say they should be retired because older people like their parents are using them. the kids are now using the skull emoji to say i am dying laughing. this is all according to the website emoji tracker. >> look, i've been using a lot of those. time to bring in the social media queen, kris sanchez herself. kris, what is your take on this? you're all about social media. >> reporter: no, listen, i do a lot of social media. you can check me right now, facebook, twitter, instagram. i don't use a lot of emoji there is. what i say to my friends is a different story. i want to know if these people judging us are the ones who

think top sheets are useless and pointless and so is deodorant because then i don't care what their opinion is. >> think i'm officially in that "old" category because i use these emojis quite a bit yesterday now that i think about it. i now do the thing, what is the thing called, you know that thing that the kids are on, talking about snapchat. >> oh. >> i was like okay, i'm officially getting there. >> reporter: the thing, you know. >> that thing, you know. >> reporter: it's okay. we can love each other intergenerationally. it's fine. >> no, we're old. as soon as we're on tiktok or snapchat, then it's over. the first time -- >> reporter: they won't come to ours either. >> yes. let's move on to the forecast, something we can agree on usually.

it's pretty nice in california. how are we looking today, kari? >> i'm using the rain emoji toda cloud emoji later today, as we are looking at some light showers coming through. we are tracking it on storm ranger, and you can get storm ranger, too, if you have the nbc bay area app. you can see what's going on, but take a look at the clouds that we're seeing over the south bay, it is a cloudy start and i think these clouds will linger for much of today. even though the rain will start to taper off, and we're looking at temperatures today reaching up to about 60 degrees, so it's still going to be nice for getting outside, looking at some upper 50s and low 60s across the bay area, reaching 60 degrees today in martinez, and san francisco reaching 59 degrees. so we are going to have some rain throughout the morning, off and on showers, but then look at what happens as we go into the afternoon. the rain moves out, but then the clouds are still going to linger and then it will gradually clear

out later tonight. we are pretty much dry for much of the rest of the week, so this is our last chance to get some water on the lawn before we go back into some dry weather, but it doesn't look like much water. only up to about 0.1 of an inch of rain for today. as we go into the next couple of weeks our outlook shows that we will have some below average temperatures across the region, as well as some near average rainfall, so that's some good news. it won't be completely dry but not looking that good for southern california, that we'll have much drier conditions going into the next couple of weeks. here we're looking at some mild weather, temperatures that will warm up just slightly once that rain moves out. we'll reach into the mid-60s, but then we will be watching out for more rain coming in early on friday. mike, you've been watching the commute. what's going on right now? >> i've also been watching you guys talk about emojis and i'm so old i use the semicolon and

close pran they sis for the winky face. i zoomed in too far. that was an easy drive. i want to tell folks the one issue that might be a concern is circle the dublin interchange some debris reported and possible traffic break north 680 off of 580. 580 the green highlighting vet for vasco and 580. a quick look shows you the richmond bridge as well a smooth drive but the sheen on the road means possible slick conditions. >> thanks, mike. preparations are being made for the spacex launch tonight, that launch was scrubbed yesterday afternoon at cape canaveral because of bad weather. the falcon 9 rocket will take 60 new starlink satellites into orbit. coming up next, a quick look at the top stories we're following, including breaking news, a deadly shooting in contra cos it's 6:53. you're watching "today in the bay."

covid's still a threat. and on reopening schools, we know what happens when we don't put safety first. ignore proper ventilation or rates of community spread, and the virus worsens. fail to provide masks or class sizes that allow for social distancing, and classrooms close back down. a successful reopening requires real safety and accountability measures. including prioritizing vaccines for educators. parents and educators agree: reopen schools. putting safety first.

welcome back. here is a quick look at our top stories we're following including a new development overnight in what's already been a violent bay area weekend. >> "today in the bay's" bob redell is live for us in antioch, scene of a deadly late night shooting. bob? >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus and laura. police have since left. they left about an hour and a half ago but the shooting took
