and supreme court. all of it eerily similar to one of the ugliest chapters in american history, the january 6th attacks. the protesters claiming the october election that saw luiz inacio lula da silva beating jair bolsonaro, that it was rigged. it's a claim bolsonaro had been making for months without evidence. lula promising to punish the demonstrators, calling them fascist. and saying they did something that wasn't ever done in the history of this country. overnight lula arriving at the presidential palace to assess the damage. federal police were deploying tear gas and flash-bangs well into the night. officials say more than 400 people have already been arrested. those who follow brazilian politics say this felt inevitable. since january 6th how much concern has there been in brazil that something like that could

happen? >> a lot because bolsonaro is a major fan of trump, trump is his idol. >> reporter: the protesters receives support from trump allies, including former aide steve bannon who called them freedom fighters. bannon was involved in the president's tempt to overturn the 2020 election and predicted the chaos one day before the capitol riots. >> all hell is going to break loose tomorrow. >> reporter: global leaders condemning the violent behavior in brazil with president biden calling it an assault on democracy and tweeting, brazil's democratic institutions have our full support and the will of the brazilian people must not be undermined. bolsonaro reacting on social media tweeting, invasions of public buildings are outside the law. >> you mentioned, sam, he is in florida. i mean, are there potential consequences for him here? >> reporter: right. he is reportedly in orlando right now. we know bolsonaro is the subject of several criminal probes at the moment.

the fact that he is no longer the sitting president reduces a bit of legal protection he has. u.s. lawmakers are demanding some of them, that the u.s. not provide refuge to this man. there is an extradition deal that the u.s. has with brazil. how it will be applied in this case is not exactly clear. certainly brazil would have to request that extradition. savannah? >> a lot of moving parts there. sam, thank you. president biden is starting this week in mexico attending a key summit with fellow north american leaders. one focus the migrant crisis. yesterday he made his first trip to the southern border since taking office, a visit some say should have taken place a lot sooner. nbc's chief white house correspondent kristen welker is there in el paso, texas, for us. good morning. >> reporter: hi, hoda. good morning. the president's agenda in mexico includes talks on climate change and the economy, but this pressing issue will be the crisis at the border.

here in el paso, migrants are finding ways to get over or under the fence behind me, even cutting through it. all of it creating a fraught backdrop for the president's first face to face with the border. president biden touching down in mexico overnight after visiting the southern border for the first time since taking office two years ago. while in el paso, the epicenter of the ongoing migrant crisis, mr. biden met with border patrol officials and toured a support center, though he did not directly meet with migrants. when asked what he learned? this high-stakes trip amid a surge of migrants nationwide. border patrol said it stopped a record 2.6 million migrants crossing illegally last year. as soon as he arrived in el paso, the president was met with criticism from all sides. texas republican governor greg abbott handing the president a letter on the airport tarmac blasting mr. biden's policies as

weak and arguing the visit came two years too late. >> he should have been out here from day one to fix the problems that he created. >> reporter: humanitarian groups say the president's new immigration policy could put more lives in danger. that policy seeks to expel 30,000 migrants a month who unlawfully entered the u.s. from venezuela, haiti, nicaragua, and cuba. all of it adding to a tense backdrop in el paso where migrants line the cold streets outside of this church, like maria rodriguez who says she risked her life fleeing violence in venezuela with her two children and a nephew. their harrowing journey lasted four months and included hiding in a garbage truck for five days. five days hiding? joe, who lives in el paso, says he empathizes with the migrants

but says his community cannot support the surge and something needs to be done. what do you want to hear from president biden today? >> i want him to do something about it finally, for sure. not just empty promises. i want him to actually do something. >> that was kristen welker in el paso, texas. the business of washington is back in business this morning after the most contentious battle to elect a speaker of the house since the civil war. kevin mccarthy landing the job on the 15th ballot after flipping a handful of republican hold-outs in an all-nighter on capitol hill. there are new fights ahead. nbc's capitol hill correspondent ryan nobles joins us with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the good news is there is a fully functioning house of representatives here on capitol hill. after everything that happened last week, the big question is, will they get anything done? for kevin mccarthy now the real work begins. >> that was easy, huh? >> reporter: just three days removed from his contentious climb to the speakership mccarthy facing a major

challenge. the house is set to vote on a rules package filled with the concessions he was forced to make to win over the rebel republicans. among them, the opportunity for any member of the house to call for a vote to remove the speaker. the creation of a broad select committee designed to investigate the quote, weaponization of the federal government, reviewing ongoing criminal investigations. and a requirement that lawmakers have 72 hours to review any piece of legislation before it comes to the floor. some moderates already raising concerns that mccarthy gave away too much. >> i have to represent everybody. i am concerned that common-sense legislation will not get through to get a vote on the floor. >> reporter: in the aftermath of the late friday drama, the gop now claiming they are ready to work together. >> it is a tough job to get to 218. i believe he is the right guide. >> reporter: he endured 15 rounds of voting. over five days. he thought he had the job

wrapped up on round 14 when matt gaetz refused to vote, leaving mike rogers to be held back from confronting gaetz. over the weekend gaetz and rogers mended their relationship. >> people can have moments of frustration. mike rogers and i had a six-year productive working relationship. we are going to work together wonderfully going forward. >> reporter: and now mccarthy is left to find a way to make the rest of his speakership different from the tumult of last week. >> how do you prevent a situation like this from happening on every type of contested vote going forward? >> i think what you will see, by having this now, we have worked out how to work together. >> reporter: and as the house gavels in later this evening, there is september simple if any of the legislation they pass will become law. it is likely the house republicans focus on investigations into the biden administration. savannah, back to you. >> thank you. turning to a milestone in the pandemic.

over the weekend china lifted restrictions on foreign travel for the first time in nearly three years marking a new phase in the nation's covid response. janis mackey frayer has more. good morning. >> reporter: hoda, good morning to you. this is a day a lot of people here have been waiting for. me included. to be able to travel into china without long quarantines on arrival. for three years china had some of the toughest covid controls of any country ending this part of it effectively reopens china to the world. this morning for the first time since the start of the pandemic travelers are streaming into china. arriving, reuniting, now that borders are open. for this family, ending a three-year wait for this. >> a great time for us to come back before chinese new year. >> reporter: scrapping quarantines for every passenger a last step in dismantling

china's zero covid regime that cut off the country from the world and battered china's economy. now thousands are crossing from hong kong to the main lined. in shanghai, 18 international flights from singapore, paris, san francisco. >> we are very happy that we can travel this year. >> reporter: since march 2020, traveling to china used to mean a surreal mix of hazmat suits, disinfectant fog, and enforced isolation. it all changed abruptly after widespread protests late november and over the past month the massive system of testing and lockdowns has been unraveled. loosening controls has fueled a surge of covid infections with china's own experts figuring 800 million people will be infected by spring. hospital emergency rooms are overwhelmed, and so are funeral homes. the world health organization criticized china for, quote, under representing the number of

covid deaths. and the scale of the outbreak is about to get worse with millions on the move from major cities to rural areas to celebrate a lunar new year without restrictions. outbound tourism is expected to rise, too, with countries like the u.s. putting restrictions on chinese travelers. the u.s. wants all travelers from china, hong kong, and macao, regardless of their nationality, to show a negative covid test. something officials in beijing have criticized as unfair, though china requires the same of people to come here. the concern among health officials, potential for new covid variants and the lack of credible data out of china has left most researchers guessing. hoda? >> thank you. quarter after on a monday morning. good morning, craig. >> hey, savannah, hoda. >> good football weekend. >> it was a special saturday and sunday in the nfl for sure. the final day of the nfl's

class this week knowing that suspect bryan kohberger is here at the county jail. think about when they left there was no suspect. little was known about this investigation and many of the students were walking around on campus worried for their safety. and now they know that they have a suspect in jail but this school will never be the same. at the university of idaho students say the mood on campus has changed following the arrest of bryan kohberger over the holiday break. >> i feel better, sort of, knowing that they have the suspect in custody, that there is a chance that this might all be behind us soon enough. >> reporter: with spring semester about to kick off, a new sense of hope even as much about the murder case remains unknown, including a motive. >> i think a lot of people are wondering how he planned it out, how it came together and why. >> reporter: the suspect is due back in court this week after appearing before an idaho judge facing four counts of first-degree murder. also in the courtroom, the

family of victim kaylee goncalves, seeing the accused killer in person for the first time. >> we can't, you know, stop all this fake information and fake stories. we can focus on this individual and finding every piece of evidence. >> reporter: overnight kaylee's sister describing the family's emotion when the suspect was arrested. >> the relief we felt having a suspect in custody was, it was like i can't even describe it, like the weight of the world was lifted from our shoulders. >> reporter: according to a police affidavit, old-fashioned detective work appears to have led to the arrest. but online the pace of rumors and speculation from amateur sleuths has not slowed down. over the weekend some spreading unverified reports kohberger may have attended a vigil for the victims and even posted an online groups devoted to the case. >> i think it's possible he was on some of these chat rooms, maybe taking part, maybe not, maybe just observing other people. >> reporter: while internet

sleuths can be useful in some cold cases, a former fbi agent says they can be an unwelcome distraction for law enforcement and cause real harm to innocent people, like the food truck guy seen with kaylee and madison the night of the murders. and a female history professor suing a popular tiktoker for suggesting she was involved in the crime. >> that stuff is where online sleuthing kind of crosses the line, when you start accusing someone. >> reporter: kohberger has not entered a plea. he is expected in court on thursday. his public defender in pennsylvania said he expects to be exonerated. savannah and hoda, back to you. >> thank you. all right. let's welcome in our nbc news legal analyst, camille vazquez, good to see you. size up this case. we have dna evidence. there is a living person who is in the home who saw some things. how strong is the case against him? >> i think extremely strong. the police and the investigators are not in the business of telling us everything that they

have they want to put enough to get probable cause to get a judge to sign that search warrant. >> yeah, i mean, we won't know perhaps until the preliminary hearing more evidence in the case i find it interesting, we were just talking about it, you know, there were weeks and weeks where it seemed like there was nothing going on in the case people were quite critical of the police department. now we learn that perhaps they had been tracking the suspect since late november. investigators have to make a decision at that point to keep things close to the vest that helps with the investigation, i presume. >> exactly right this case has garnered so much attention, worldwide, really so i think these investigators do not want to make any mistakes they do not want to give the suspect any reason to have the case not go the way they want it to. >> we heard a lot about these internet sleuths everyone is trying to give their theories and in some cases name names. do those kinds of folks hurt a case or can they occasionally help a case, too

>> i think both. i think the internet sleuths, this has become something that really captivated the country, this case has. so people want to talk about the evidence they want to talk about the human impact and these are college students, right? so i think it can be incredibly helpful for investigators. they pleaded to the public and asked for information about the white elantra. it could also be not helpful, harmful when you start naming someone. >> yeah, especially when you don't have the evidence. these are real lives you are talking about. thank you very much. appreciate it. >> thank you so much let's get a check of the weather with mr. roker. >> a lot going on. a little light snow in the northeast. some showers that's going it be moving through. no big problems. temperatures fairly seasonal above average highs from the gulf coast to the mid-plains mountain snows out in the pacific northwest. the cascades, as well. heavy rain a

control in brazil right now. as you look over my shoulder, it's calm in front of the brazilian consulate in miami contrasted with the chaos that erupted in brazil yesterday. there was a sense, talking to people who covered brazilian politics for years, that you will see a january 6th type of event happen in brazil. originally the prothought -- thought process here, it would be september 7th on brazil's independence day. if not then, the first round of voting in the recent presidential election. if not then, after the second round of voting who saw luiz inacio lula da silva beat jair bolsonaro 51 to 49%. what you see on the screen did catch some off guard there. i am told there wasn't a hint of disruption until suddenly this played out. the parallels to january 6th are haunting and so evocative as you look at these images. we saw people using as makeshift weapons barriers and metal poles to bust through windows, people storming not just the congressional building but the presidential palace and supreme

court, taking pictures and soaking up the glory of what they were doing. according to brazilian officials somewhere in the neighborhood of 400 arrests and counting. they are vowing to bring those to justice who took part and trying to figure out where the financing came to bus all these people to brazil from all over brazil. the other outstanding question as you look at this picture right now of former president trump shaking bolsonaro's hand, what goes on with extradition were there to be a situation as bolsonaro is reportedly in florida at this moment facing several criminal proceedings from brazil, were there to be a request to extradite him, how would that play out as the united states has a treaty with brazil when it comes to extradition. it's not clear how it will be applicable in this situation. sa san savannah? >> all right. sam brock for us, thank you. president biden arrived in mexico city overnight for a two-day meeting. yesterday he made his first trip to the u.s./mexico border since taking office.

since then buy those. >> so you say you regret doing it and what's your advice for harry now, him having done something similar? >> well, i understand where he is coming from obviously, it's very complicated growing up and feeling like you are living under this huge shadow obviously, the monarchy is a bigger shadow than being part of the first family, but it's the same thing you don't feel like you exist as an individual. you don't feel that you are taking up space. you don't feel that you matter and it's human nature to want to feel that you matter so you think, well, if i just sort of, you know, open the floodgates and tell everything, you know, then i'll take up space. then i will matter then they will have to listen to me the problem with that is the only thing that is taking up space is all the things that you are saying about other people. and like the clip that you just showed of harry, the phrase that

jumped out at me was "my truth." as i said in the op-ed, that's a narrow way of looking at things. and i did it, too. this is my truth but the full story is other people's truths, also. so, you know, my suggestion in this op-ed was that silence and reflection is very valuable, you know, to take a step back and try to look through a wider lens look at the whole picture. get some insight that way because it's a bigger picture than just your story. >> well, kind of, i guess, what's done is done. he put everything in writing it was in the netflix documentary, as well but there is another piece here. you got to reconciliation and harry keeps talking about i want to reconcile or i'm open to that how would he possibly go about that given what's been going on? >> i think the only way to do it

is to change within yourself as i said, it requires some reflection it requires some silence, some stepping back. listen, you know, i'm not going to sugarcoat things. we never did become a close, cohesive family, but i think that's part of it. you have to accept what your family is and accept what your parents brought to the table i was struck in -- i did watch his "60 minutes" interview last night. i was struck about the story when his mother died and his father had his hand on harry but didn't embrace him well, i'd like to know what charles' story is with his father i mean, where is that part of the story? because he i'm sure would have wanted to be a more hands-on father i'm not sure, but i suspect. and that's part of the story, too. do you know what i mean?

>> yeah. it's so interesting, patti, is that i think you told our producer that almost immediately, like even during your book tour, you kind of regretted having written the book how did you -- what was the process like of coming to grips with that and then coming as hoda said to reconciliation? how did you get on that path to healing for yourself, as well? >> you know, it was a lot of internal work. it was a lot of grief, really, to accept that i made a huge mistake and i made it publicly it was like 40 years ago now but it was brutal. i mean, it was -- i, you know, i was like hated i got death threats. it was really, really brutal so there was some grief in there, but i also really had to just go do a lot of internal work for me, it was a lot of spiritual work part of that, i think, was to accept that my family was what it was

it was a fractured family. it was never going to be, i don't know, "the brady bunch." probably they weren't even functional i don't know [ laughter ] they seemed like they were >> no tell-alls on "the brady bunch" that we are aware of. i hope people read the op-ed i know that you took pains to be very fair to all sides and to really be thoughtful and introspective about the journey that harry is on thank you for sharing a little bit of that. also should mention her latest book, we will mention this one, "floating in the deep end" about being a caregiver for those with alzheimer's, something you know much about thank you, patti. >> thank you. 8:20 mr. roker, a check of the weather. >> good morning, guys. good morning, everybody. a nice crowd out here. braving the chill. let's show you what we're looking at for today we can see again more rain out west snow in the mountains. a little wet weather through the northeast and new england.

underway. these cars and drivers caught in intense flooding. santa cruz chp can confirm these reports on twitter as well. just amazing confirmation from that. there is massive flooding going on right now as well as road closures. >> that's right. this is coming from morgan hill. a lot of spillover in morgan hill. several streets shut down, including underwater near watsonville and morgan hill roads. valley water says west little yagas creek is spilling over, causing concerns as well. bailey is closed. monterrey, just northbound at old monterrey, so that's not quite downtown, but it's pretty close, has been shut down, as well. let's check in with kari. >> i'm watching all of the rivers and creeks around the bay area, really focused on that san lorenzo river fell, to where it went above what was forecast and continues to rise above that major flooding, right now at 24.29 feet.

and most likely will continue to rise more as the rain continues. and then looking at russian river at guerneville, that is expected to reach into minor flooding as we go into tomorrow morning at 32 feet. so some of those low-lying areas will have some flooding there. looking at the guadalupe river at almaden, we are seeing it also just above where it is expected to be, minor flooding happening as it is cresting now at 9.6 feet. and hopefully we'll continue to recede very quickly. and looking at the napa river, downtown napa, right now at that action stage, where you need to make sure you continue to monitor what's going on, at least through this afternoon, as it is expected as of right now to stay just below flood stage, but it's going to be very close. and looking at coyote creek at edenvale, that's at the action stage, but is expected to crest later on this evening. that all depends on how much rainfall that we are going to see in those areas. and looking back at the past 24 to 48 hours, we've gotten over

an inch of rain in san jose, but look at the santa cruz mountains. nearing 7 inches of rainfall, that is in a very short period of time. and even in the north bay, 3 to 4 inches of rainfall that has already fallen, where we are seeing a bit of a break there, there is still that heavy rain that continues to fall in the east bay, the peninsula, into the south bay, as well as the santa cruz mountains and you're catching a break once again in the north bay. but we are still seeing several storms lining up, all of this has to work through the bay area, as it taps into that tropical moisture. here's what we're expecting. waves of heavy rain through the early afternoon. a brief break for tonight and the next storm arrives early tomorrow morning. we can also see more high wind gusts and thunderstorms and also more landslides and mud slides, rising water levels, as well as street flooding that will continue as we are still seeing the axis of the heaviest rain shifting over towards more focused on the south bay for the

afternoon. later on tonight, looks like we get a brief break, but then that next storm coming in will have more of a punch. and this could produce more wind gusts and thunderstorms, a lot more lightning, but it is going to turn more scattered by late tomorrow morning into the afternoon and then we prepare for the next storm that's going to be coming in on wednesday. only a brief break on thursday, but on friday we see the rain returning as we go into the evening and continues into the weekend. and heading over to you, mike, you're planning also for those weather-related delays. >> yeah, kari, absolutely, kari, we have problems reported. we have the hills east of san jose and milpitas, where they're really getting concerned about getting rain soaked. there's concern over the soil and trees, but we are also hearing a lot of reports coming into my traffic center and also the station of 87, having flooding in many of your usual suspects coming up into downtown, some lanes over at 101

and 287 and 287. also near the airport, over by our station, 87 and 101, having a number of lanes flooded. 87, reports of flooding in that area. no full closures for the freeways in this portion. i'll tell you what is closed right now, you showed the tweet earlier, scott and laura. we're talking about it inmore inmoregan hill, monterrey road, a major north/south roadway. between little yagas creek and fisher creek, at last closure because those creeks building up. fortunately for drivers through the area, if you get over toward 101, this is around cochran. it's up to dunn, where it's very slow. things kind of ease up as you approach dunn and head north. that might be an opportunity for folks to get through the area. look at all this traffic

building up through morgan hill itself. as we look at the rest of the bay. 680, a lot of pulleding, ponding, on and off-ramps here, watching the downtown area. 280 and 880 moving smoothly through the area, coming up on that rain-soaked portion of the bay. on the peninsula, first of all, i should show you 84. the folks that are just joining us, need to be reminded it's closed through niles canyon. over on the peninsula side, i want to show you one of our live cameras over in palo alto. things were really soupy up until about five minutes ago, kind of calming down. not reacting with the rain right this moment, but look at all of the water on the lens and on the roadways, slippery conditions, water continues to kick up as southbound 101 sees a lot of traffic traveling down the peninsula heading into silicon valley. soupy conditions here, getting there or from there, here's the

san mateo bridge. a lot of issues as follows visibility goes. much soupier conditions across the bay. we can make out the high rise now, but it's changed over the last ten minutes as well. folks are slowing, only going as fast as as it is safe to go, as fast as the conditions allows. soupy conditions there. and on the other side of the bay as well, northbound 880 thinning out a little bit as traffic travels past past high street. the bay area had the metering lights on and they're still activated. there's still a backup at the toll plaza. keep that in mind, add that in addition to slower speeds across the bay. mass transit can get you past the toll plaza, but b.a.r.t. is operating with slower trains in general, because as we've talked about over the last few weeks, slippery tracks, potential for an issue for breaking. they slow those trains down, so they don't have an issue with the wheels, causing wear on the wheels as they slide at higher speeds. that is a concern. scott and laura, you talked about morgan hill again and also south from the area, we showed with kari, almost 7 inches in

the santa cruz mountains. that's near felton where they showed that 6 .75 inches of rainfall. graham hill at mt. hermon is closed due to flooding. you can see the real estate signs, but not on. chp has blocked off that intersection, but of course, they talked about having had several rescues already this morning. the chp report had almost 100 incidents they were tracking. that includes flooding, spinouts, people stalled in the water, repeatedly in some areas like the north bay and down here in the santa cruz mountains. so your car will be like all the other cars, right? stuck in the water, you're not special, i'm sorry. but if you see standing water, don't go into it. >> don't go into it. >> they've talked about -- the highway signs have said non-essential travel. we've heard from parents who have thought, i'm making the decision, we're not going to school today. >> this is from morgan hill unified school districts, acknowledging that there are several flooded roads,

especially in the area of monterrey road, which you had mentioned previously. as the rainwater is expected to be so heavy, they're saying, we understand that it could be challenging if you're trying to get your child to school this morning. if this is your child situation, least morgan hill unified, they're saying, we're willing to work with you, don't worry about it, keep your kids home. they'll work with any attendance-related matters there, because this is concerning with so much flooding going on throughout the bay area. this latest storm triggering a lot of problems, that includes downed trees and rock slides. >> nbc bay area's emma gosk continues our coverage now. she's in san bruno, i can hear the chainsaws behind you there. >> reporter: you can hear the chainsaws because a tree trimming service has come out and made quick work of this large tree that fell down earlier this morning and toppled on to the roof of this house, on pacific heights boulevard and also did some damage to the car parked in the driveway. they've now been clearing this

out and the rain has -- this is the first time all morning that the rain has let up a little and stopped for the time being. we spoke to a neighbor next door, who said that they couldn't hear the sound to have the tree falling overnight, but they did get a text message from their next-door neighborhood, who safely evacuated, no reports of any injuries and they're staying somewhere else for the foreseeable future. but we did see that the tree earlier was an incredibly large tree and now it's been removed fairly quickly. a good sign that things are able to move quickly for the tree trimming crew. back to you guys. >> pretty impressive they were able to get out there that fast. >> it is. and of course, this reminds us of that 2-year-old that was killed a couple of days ago. there were no injuries -- just establishing, no injuries, right, emma? >> reporter: no injuries. the neighbor was able to share that the neighbors are okay and uninjured. >> that's good news.

all right, emma gosk reporting from san bruno. we'll check back in with you later. >> i'm afraid this is just the first of many problems we're going to see throughout the bay area and also we're monitoring what is happening in the santa cruz mountains, where evacuations are underway. we're in this microclimate weather alert this morning, as the latest storm is moving through the bay area. >> yeah, santa cruz county, i mean, felton is just extraordinary. you've got the san lorenzo river there at flood stage, evacuations underway in felton grove and paradise park areas, brand-new video coming into our newsroom from that area. >> that's right. cars just submerged underwater and the water that's even rising going into homes now. we're getting reports of rescuers that were underway after people have been trapped in this intense flooding. santa cruz chp does confirm reports on twitter this morning that rescues are underway there and in other areas. >> and certainly a lot of these cities will have emergency shelters open for people who have lost power or you need to do any kind of evacuation.

this coming out of santa cruz, but just a lot of logs and debris, it says, moving through a levee in santa cruz and the rushing water really picking up. as we see all of this high water and all of these waves, please, please keep a safe distance from them. >> yes, most definitely. and as we've mentioned, this is just the latest storm moving through the bay area. boy, we could really use some breaks here, kari. >> we could, but it doesn't really look like our breaks last that long. and so what happened here at the san lorenzo river, we were expecting it to flood, but it happened a lot sooner and actually went above what was forecast. you think about just one intense rainfall that moves through, that is really hard to predict as well as that water draining down a lot faster, that's what happened here. and so, people in that area hopefully were able to get out in time, were prepared and evacuated before we saw all of this happening. we're also closely watching the

guadalupe river at almaden. it's now cresting at 9.6 feet. that is at a minor flood stage. and we've had intense amounts of rainfall. we've had about an inch of rain in san jose, but over the santa cruz mountains, it's nearing 7 inches of rainfall. and we look at the north bay, 3 to 4 inches of rain, most of the rest of the bay area getting up to an inch or more, up to 2 inches. we'll see a break narts of the north bay, but it's still going to stall out as we look at the santa cruz mountains, parts of the san mateo area, moving over towards the east bay. san jose, this is where we're expecting the rain to linger for the next couple of hours before it moves on. and we're still seeing heavy rain around antioch, brentwood, towards byron, parts of the delta as well as the tri-valley picking up on pockets of heavy raun. those rainfall totals continuing to go up as more street flooding continues as well in san jose down to the south bay.

as we've been mentioning, these storms are developing, lining up, a parade of storms will continue to move through with very short breaks in between. it does look as we go towards 1 to 2:00, it's still raining in the and the santa cruz mountains and we all get break later on this evening. tomorrow morning, the next storm comes in and may have more of a punch in terms of more thunderstorms, brief heavy downpours and more impacts with downed trees and power outages as this all continues, as the impacts of getting all of this wet weather continues. and this is what mike mentioned, that if you see water covering the road, you don't know how deep it is. just turn around, don't drown. because only 6 inches of rainfall and sweeping water can carry you away, knock you off your feet, about 12 inches of water can sweep away a small car, and about 18 inches of water can sweep away a truck or suv. even bigger vehicles can get carried away in some of the water that we've seen flooding

the roads around the bay area. going into the rest of the week, storm after storm moving through, only brief breaks possibly thursday afternoon into early friday. the weekend is looking wet as well. so as these storms continue. we do want to make sure you're prepared. you have that emergency kit, whether you're going to be staying at home with no power, or you need to evacuate at a moment's notice, make sure all of those things are gathered up and ready for these impacts that we'll continue to see as these strong storms are staying in the forecast with us, even going into the weekend, as well as next week. scott and laura? >> kari, thank you. we're getting reports out of morgan hill. lots of flooding there. watsonville and monterrey roads there in morgan hill. several streets shut down or underwater, as well. these advisories, valley water says west little yaga creek spilling over, causing issues there. i have a number of friends that have been texting in, one saying

it's up to his jeep doors. i've got another who says, send anyone out in my little hyundai, no. >> exactly. they're advising people to stay home. morgan hill unified is telling parents, if you can't get out, if you can't get the kids to school, it's okay today. there is massive flooding going on. we're seeing numerous accidents on the roadways, as well, at least 100 already reported. let's check in with mike inouye. he's been importanting all that for us. >> yeah, the 100 number that i gave, laura, was the active incidents in the chp report. now, they're scattered. some of them are crashes, some of them are disabled vehicles, roadway hazards, flooding incidents like mud slides and trees down, but there were 100 active incidents at pretty much any given time over the last hour. things are calming down a little bit, but that means fewer people are coming in. folks, you heard about monterrey road being closed because of the rising waters. there's little llagas and fisher creek. what morgan hill chp is

offering, butterfield, which locals will know is also a north/south avenue through the area. take butterfield boulevard to get around that closure of monterrey road. and that is one section of monterrey road, but the entire area is going to have a lot of water, obviously. but between those creeks, that's one concern. 101 hasn't seen a closure, but we've seen a lot of slowing traffic in your usual spots, just made slower by the conditions and visibility. now, if you were with us at the beginning, as we came into programming, you would notice the fact that the blue kind of eased off from this portion of a map. we're recalculating as the conditions continue to change. but it's still going to be soupy, sloppy conditions with a lot of standing water, as we showed you in many spots. highway 17 has had continued issues northbound. they continue to have one lane restricted by mud flows off of the hill. watch for that. if you have friends coming over from the santa cruz side, just be patient and tell them they don't have to come up and they don't have to come up. southbound, we had some flooding around ottawa, northbound, we had another issue around laurel, but this one is approaching the

summit road through the area, similar area again, more mud through this portion. we're talking about the entire bay area getting soaked. the south bay itself, of course, we hear about 87 with flooding, less traffic now, so an easier ride as far as this weekend goes, but still we've had reports of flooding around curtner is very jammed up. heading up capital expressway to curtner. easing up as far as that volume of traffic, but still slow as you pass under taylor street bridge, we often hear about flooding approaching the san jose airport, heard about flooding on to and off of 87, right around 101, chp and local crews there. i think we were waiting for caltrans for one of those issues for lanes closing just up at the top end of 87. 680, 280, 101 all slow through these areas. a lot of slowing for this portion of the bay, and continuing up, look, a minor crash on 280 north causing slowing back to 85, slowing through this rainy area. traveling up in towards sunnyville and mountain view, 101, 85 also showing some late commute slowing through nah

area. typically have the build around that area where we have all of those businesses like alphabet or you can call it google, some still call it google. we're looking at linkedin, microsoft, all of that around the shoreline area, but that will be very congested and slower because of soupy conditions. when i drive through that portion of 101, i also see the lower portions. the outer lanes have a lot of flooding. stick to the middle lanes when you can, when it is safe, you can look at the conditions out here in fremont. you can see the flag waving here as folks travel south, down the nimitz freeway, coming out of oakland, then through newark in and towards fremont and into the south bay. good volume of traffic traveling south with these conditions continue to provide an issue, when you get to higher speeds, the water still kicks up the car behind you. over here at the bay bridge, we haven't had a break once those metering lights were turned on. and when you try to take b.a.r.t. to get around, b.a.r.t. has those slower trains serving

for them. we have video and footage that came in there santa cruz, chp as well. this is over at graham hill is and they're just saying avoid this intersection. i showed you a still picture from the intersection earlier. this is in felton where we have one example of why you don't drive through standing water, because if you notice the sign in the background, look at that, that sign is halfway covered with water. so that's really deep where that sign is itself. it looks like a shallow puddle. not so much so. you talked about the hyundai, yeah, no, even the bigger vehicles. >> stay out of that. and in the same area, we are seeing some mandatory evacuations. so there are some emergency shelters that are now available at the santa cruz county fairgrounds and the cabrillo college as well. if you can stay in, if you're not under an evacuation order, absolutely do. laura was talking about many school systems saying, hey, listen, school is important, but if you don't think you can make it safely, make it later. >> and staying home, you would feel would be one of the safest places to be, it wasn't for one

family up in san bruno this morning. >> that's right. emma gosk is out in san bruno where a big tree came down, chainsaws behind her. and the best news, emma, nobody hurt. all right. it looks like her live shot is breaking up there a little bit. no doubt due to some of the high winds and stormy conditions that we have. but behind her there, you can see the tree that came down on this house and a car. the good news here is that no one was injured. >> if you're just joining us, we have special coverage of all of this flooding and rain, something that has become rather routine at this point. in morgan hill, we have a lot of flooding. bailey avenue is closed, the san lorenzo river at flood stage, as well. so cal creek has reach what they call the action stage. this is in the felton grove area. these are mandatory evacuations. >> that's right. and take a look at some of these areas there where cars completely submerged in water.

all of that water rushing now into homes. people have been evacuating these areas for quite some time. hopefully, they're heading to higher ground or actually, lower ground. maybe the santa cruz fairgrounds, cabrillo college is in an evacuation center being set up right now, and hopefully people are getting, you know, to a safer place. this is just some of the flooding that you're seeing in the south bay right now. >> we're talking about school. this is nordstrom elementary, we just saw a little clip of a young person walking to school, but, you know, stay out of these floodwaters, that doesn't look dangerous, but it certainly can be, particularly for a small child. >> that's a park that is right next to nordstrom, right on dunn avenue there. it kind of acts as a flood plane, and that's exactly what it's intended for. you can see how fulls is. >> as a dad, i can tell you, that would be tempting for children. and of course, we're thinking of the unhoused, they've been warned to stay away from

guadalupe creek. >> reporter bob redell was out there this morning, and rapidly, we're seeing that river rise since last week, since last thursday, new san jose mayor matt mayhem had declared a state of emergency. they were going down with loud speakers, teaming up with the police department, trying to get most of the unhoused out of this area. they were working on that last week, they had some people that wanted to stay, they didn't want to leave and have been trying to move them out of this area as this river is cresting very dangerous conditions there. >> kari said it was at minor flood stage and cresting at 9.6 feet. and of course, she has some of these storm totals. and some of these crests will come later, right, kari? >> that's right. some parts of the bay area will continue to see that water coming down and causing those rivers and creeks to continue to rise, even beyond when the rainfall is happening at its heaviest. now, we're looking at how much rain has fallen in the past couple of days, and well,

oakland has measured over 2 inches of rainfall, but of course, the stunner has been the santa cruz mountains getting nearly 7 inches of rainfall and just in this short amount of time. but all of that has also moved across the santa cruz mountains through san martin. even some of our low-lying areas are getting some of this really impressive rainfall. it's coming into already saturated ground. we've gotten over 3.5 inches of rainfall, and over 4 inches of rainfall for santa rosa. but the good thing is we've seen the rain lightening up for parts of the north bay, but it does continue as we look at san francisco, now getting a break, but for san mateo counties, santa cruz mountains, parts of the east bay, we're still seeing that rain coming down and a lot of our computer models have showed the rain at this point, where it is right now, just stalling out for the next several hours. so we're going to continue to see these areas that are getting rain right now see the biggest of the impacts with this system. and it's over toward the east

bay, as we're seeing the darker shades of green over towards eastern contra costa county, as well as the tri-valley, markets of really heavy rain moving through there. and it is a little bit lighter for san jose, but it is still pouring to the south. these storms are developing, they're lining up in the pacific. we have a lot more of this energy that has to work through our area, before we catch a break. and there are some brief breaks in there, going into this evening, for the commute, it looks much better than what we were seeing right now. and going into early tomorrow morning, the next storm will be arriving, most likely before a lot of people get up, but we're going to be awakened early, as we are starting our show at 4:00 tomorrow morning, we're going to have a lot of heavy rain, even potentially some more thunderstorms, as we get this off and on rain and all of this energy moving through. and so, let's go around the bay area. take a look at some of our live cameras and the current conditions. as we mentioned, with san francisco, there is a bit of a

break here. the rain was very heavy earlier this morning, but now it's looking a lot better. but still very sloppy, as you're coming through 580 and dublin. and for the south bay, now getting the brunt of this storm, it is definitely low visibility and also, you may be hitting some puddles, so it could be very dangerous for driving out there within the next couple of hours. back to you. >> kari, thank you. >> and i'm just getting this on twitter this morning, near santa cruz. the fire department there is responding to valencia for a landslide with an occupied car buried in that slide. we're getting some really concerning rescues going on. >> and the catadi park school district just announced no school. we're continuing to follow the latest online. we're going to stay on for a little bit longer. we're staying on for a little

bit longer. follow each of us individually on twitter, because we're trying to get out as much current information as we can, even while we're on air. >> mike inouye joins us again. a lot of roads closed and where they're not, just go slow. >> exactly, exactly. chp, they're passing on the reports as they come in, as you can imagine, a lot of folks are calling into their systems, as more and more folks are hitting the roads today. the latest coming in, we have a report of just off of 238, as you're traveling past hesperian, another report of a number of lanes being flooded out. watch for the area coming out of castro valley and heading to and from 880, that's a critical castro valley "y" we talked about. you know, in that vicinity, we continue with the closure for 84 as well. that's niles canyon, the windy part that goes alongside the canyon and the train tracks and folks familiar with the tray of lights, that's kind of the area we're talking about. and if you've been through the area, you know that windy, sort of hillside roadway is beautiful

when it's dry, not in conditions like this. wet conditions continue around the bay area, as we're looking to the north bay. highway 37, just past top of the screen also comes in with another closure, a couple of lanes flooded out around hanna ranch, 37, of course, is a critical connector between vallejo and novato. we'll zoom in here, talking about the tri-valley. i want you to note, it's also, look at mission boulevard, mission north here. because this is closed off and has been for days now, we're looking over here towards southbound 680 bulb folks who want to cut off of fremont, can do that along niles canyon. we've been warning about that and familiar with 680 over towards mission boulevard. you see mission north or state route 238 is seeing a lot more congestion, a lot more traffic flow, just be patient, you see this surface street, even though it's a state route and badged as a state route, we know there are

lots of houses in the area. over here is dublin, we're talking about the tri-valley and all of that blue that's puddling and ponding through the roadway. folks are able to go at speed, but we've had a number of reports throughout the morning of the solo car crashes, there were officially spinouts, but in either case, solo car crashes are oftentimes when cars may need a little bit of traction. that often plays a part into it. not officially reported as the cause of that crash. as we're looking over here towards the san mateo bridge, it's a very tough bridge. at times, you can hardly see the high rise. a lot more traffic coming over from the peninsula side as you see the slower drive, that's pretty unusual at this time of morning, eastbound 92 coming off of 101. we've been seeing these live shots show fluctuation between a relatively clear and calm and soupy conditions. remember, with those windshield

wipers moving. right now, was probably need that in many patches. i'm hearing that we have another tweet to come up and we'll show you some of the information. this comes from the santa cruz chp, i believe. this again is over off of graham hill in felton area, where we were talking about why we should avoid this particular intersection and intersections like this. we've talked about monterrey road being flooded out. using butterfield as an alternate in morgan hill. here in felton, you can avoid this intersection. look at how widespread that water is. it goes well past all the signals at that intersection. and chp is stationed here, but if you stay away from the water, they have to go help you out. they can watch out for people to avoid the situations like this. we'll send it right back over to you. >> that's what we're finding, some of the people that didn't evacuate in areas of santa cruz, now they're having to go back and rescue them. that really ties up personnel. i don't have to tell you, we're in this microclimate weather

alert. >> santa cruz county evacuations at the san lorenzo area. >> this is that brand-new video that was coming into our newsroom, you see cars completely submerged. all the water going into homes and rescues going underway. we're continuing to follow everything that's going on. you can join us online and nbcbayarea.com and join us for midday news at 11:00 a.m.
