[ inaudible ] >> frustrated and tired. residents in san francisco are pleading for action after recent crime spree terrorizes one neighborhood. the action city leaders say needs to take place to come back the growing crime. >> president biden remains under fire after dodging a reporter's questions of his handling of classified documents this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, amazon fire, apple tv and online. >> a good wednesday morning to you. i'm marcus washington. >> and i'm laura garcia. let's start out with the

forecast. we enjoyed the sun yesterday, a little rain making a comeback. it would be nice to space it out more but we are going to see one more wave of rain and then we'll catch a bigger break as we take a look at what we'll be talking about. it is cold as you head out the door. in the mid-30s and upper 30s, palo alto we're in the low 40s. as you head out for the east bay commute you don't need the umbrella or the windshield wipers at least not for now. temperatures in the low 40s here. this system approaches and starts to make its way into the bay area. it will be a quick-moving round of rain and coming late this evening. at 6:00 we're starting to see it pick up around ukiah and then for san francisco more like 9:00 to 10:00 tonight and then going into the tri-valley, into the

south bay around midnight. once again it will be in and out and we'll be done with it by tomorrow among at this time. and we'll be talking more about what else is ahead heading into the weekend. overnight crews are starting to move. i thought i saw traffic pause for a bit. i believe the crew on the span has cleared from just around the south tower. a smooth flow of traffic and they haven't moved that center divide just yet. crews were there overnight because they were able to be there and they're clearing now. highway 37 not clear. one lane blocked because of water coming up in the king tides and coastal flood advisories. kari talked more about that. more hillside slippage so that's still closed and many other passes with smaller surface streets as well. reports of a car fire on 24. still getting details.

we do have the sensors slowing as you travel north on 680. the pattern looks like they are clearing that construction. those crews also there in the northbound direction. i'll get an update from this and will bring it to you coming up. the rain makes a return following weeks of wet weather. >> "today in the bay's" pete suratos is live for us in oakland hills where crews are still work to go clean up landslides. i would imagine crews will have to work quickly. >> reporter: we're back here on st. andrews road where they had two landslides in a span of three days and, look, they are making pretty good progress. there was still a lot of debris and trees, able to push that out. some of that mud and sludge did slide over to the house. this isn't the only city dealing with storm cleanup.

pg&e dealing with power line issues because we see winds hit the entire bay area during these storms. talking about san francisco, the cleanup continues after flooding in those areas. for folks that are familiar with 17th and folsom, it was really hit hard by that flooding on new year's eve. a lot of business owners had sewage on the streets so they had a lot of cleanup and it damaged more than 40 cars it at this local repair shop. this is what they had to say about it. >> they say like 16 inches. >> reporter: in sunol you had a landslide coming down on an ace train that was heading to san

jose yesterday morning. thankfully no injuries but more than 200 passengers were stranded for some hours because of this. service is set to resume today so they're trying to resume service today. they continue some storm cleanup, still some muddy roads after two landslides in three days. heavier rainfall is expected a bit later in the evening. still time on the clock. live here in observing, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> i wish we had more of a window for that cleanup. thanks, pete. we want to remind you of our free nbc bay area app that will give you access to the exclusive doppler radar there. that way you can track any of that storm as it heads your way. the latest alert on any of that breaking news. in the marina district concerns of a rise in crime. last night police chief william scott, d.a. brooke jenkins and catherine stefani met at the

marina middle school. the main reason for the meeting a series of car windows smashed in the area sunday night. chief scott said hundreds more officers were needed and d.a. jenkins addressed those who disagreed with the city's current response. >> what i recognize we're in a state nobody believes there are any consequences for their actions and i am working day and night to make sure they understand -- >> at the end of the meeting the main agreement was that there needs to be another town hall to address the issues. lawyers for an ex-police officer who killed george floyd in 2020 are expected to ask for a new trial today. derek chauvin is seeking to have his sentence thrown out on the grounds that his high-profile case was tainted by publicity and deprived him of a fair trial. chauvin was convicted and sentenced to 22 1/2 years in prison. he and three other officers were arrested after he was recorded holding floyd to the ground and pressing his knee to his neck.

after nearly nine minutes floyd lost consciousness and died. 5:06 right now. president biden continues to ignore questions offer his handling of classified documents. >> however, white house officials are speaking up as the special counsel investigation is under way. "today in the bay's" brie jackson, the white house is facing intense criticism regarding his handling of the matter. >> reporter: that's right, good morning, marcus, laura. deflecting criticism it's holding or withholding information about president biden's handling of classified documents and accusing republicans of faking outreach. president biden remaining tightlipped about the classified documents found at his former office and his private residence in delaware leaving the white house to do damage control.

>> the president and his team rightfully took action when they learned the documents existed. >> reporter: the justice department has not told the white house that it cannot talk about the facts of the case, still, the white house is only providing limited details amid growing calls for transparency. mr. biden's personal attorneys found the first batch of documents less than a week before midterm elections but the discovery was not revealed publicly until recently. >> why did we not find out about it until 60-plus days later? and then we only found out about it because of an investigative report. >> reporter: with even more documents found just last week, republicans are drawing comparisons to the documents fbi agents seized from former president trump's mar-a-lago residence. >> is the same push behind it? it just does not seem fair.

>> reporter: some lawmakers want to review the process of packing sensitive government records. >> we have to review how departing presidents and vice presidents are going about organizing the archiving of their documents both classified and unclassified. this can't go on. >> reporter: questions remain including the total number of classified documents found at both locations. and white house officials told reporters that the administration was releasing information as it deemed it appropriate, but even some democrats are calling for more transparency on this issue. marcus, laura? >> certainly a conversation we'll be talking about for a while. thanks, brie. it is 5:09. everyone is talking about being able to see the blue skies again. we're waiting for the sun's arrival this morning overlooking downtown san jose and look at that at the bottom, tracking incoming rain. yep, another one headed our way. you won't see it this morning.

this one will not tap into the deep tropical moisture and will be in and out of here quickly so we are expecting it to move in later on this evening. we do have a dry start as we take a look in dublin. we are in the upper 30s. they'll be with us through 3:00. sun and clouds throughout the morning, we're headed for the low 50s and coastline. a coastal flood advisory and low lying areas are still seeing a lot of that run-off going down into those areas and still the potential of flooding into 4:00 today and our reservoirs are doing great. we are seeing them over capacity for a lot of spots like lexington reservoir at 106% of capacity, still running very high but we're tracking one more round of rain that may bring these levels up a little bit more. still concerned about flooding. mike, as you head out the door,

heater on. used the defroster before i got out of the driveway. have enough gas to maintain that. we'll start with sunnyvale for the gas prices. old san francisco road and that edges out the others in sunnyvale at $3.84. in solano county the best is in vallejo with the marathon that's $3.65, trending lower with the prices and ending with the low here. on willow pass road, $3.59. great reports coming in from gasbuddy.com. speeds doing fine. that was not a fire but was a smoking vehicle, no injuries reported on the shoulder. we'll talk about that. 84 continues to be an issue for drivers still closeded between sunol and fremont. continuing because of the hillside and repair work.

ace was brought to a standstill yesterday. they did restore the service. b.a.r.t., caltrain, vta has additional service added yesterday. looking at a smooth drive on the roadways. back to you. 5:12. what's old is new once again. next on "today in the bay," the trend that has teens suddenly flipping for flip phones and the reason why may come as a surprise to many. the list of best airlines is out. number one may not surprise you. it's a good airline. it's a good airline. i think number three will be

i was injured in a car crash.

it's i had no idea how much i thimy case was worth.ll be call the barnes firm to find out what your case could be worth. we will help get you the best result possible. ♪ call one eight hundred, eight million ♪ good wednesday morning. it is 5:15 and it is cold. check out our east bay temperature in martinez. right now 39 degrees. it is all clear to start but we'll start to see clouds moving in and the sun is peeking out but the rain holding off until later on this evening. the time line and we'll talk about what's ahead in the rest of the forecast coming up. it's cold in the north bay but we do have a restriction getting over to highway 101. a light, easy drive. santa rosa down to the golden gate bridge. where you're not at speed a

couple developments. stocks took a beating after goldman reported its financials. retail sales data today. tesla starts its federal lsuit trial in san francisco. microsoft will cut jobs. cnbc says many of the cuts will come from the engineering department. microsoft had layoffs. today's could be as big as 5%. now based on published employee numbers that's 11,000 people. we'll talk more about how to survive a layoff coming up after the next break. updated prices on that twitter auction which continues through this afternoon. twitter selling off stuff from its offices. this light-up twitter bird $22,000. this chair a 20% auction fee. some people pointing out you could buy this chair and get it delivered from a furniture store for less money, but, hey, it

wouldn't be from twitter. some surprises on this year's list of best airlines. delta is number one. that's not a surprise necessarily. a lot of people like delta but take a look at the number three spot, southwest airlines, delta, followed by alaska and then southwest, united and alallegia. they date back to september. that's why southwest is number three. the meltdown is not included when they consider their ratings. it's fair to say southwest is not likely to appear so high next year. american and spirit, frontier and jetblue comes in last. i think some people will be surprised. jetblue is largely based in new york and the upper northeast which is where it gets such bad

weather. and so that's when their planes get delayed, and so their delay numbers are terrible. i think on time is something like 60% but it's largely because of where they fly not necessarily how much you'll enjoy the flight. >> right, on the west coast, a lot more time. >> a lot easier. >> thanks, scott. new this morning door dash will soon start delivering starbucks nationwide. the service will initially be rolled out to northern california, texas and georgia. as for the norcal most will be starting in sacramento. gen-z no stranger to trends, how physical film cameras made a comeback. >> remember the flip phones? they have been showing up more and more and even celebrities

are checking in. young people like to try and connect. >> what's the balance of connection and presence with those in my life and how do phones add to that or take away from that? >> psychologists say as smartphone and social media use has grown, so, too, have rates of depression. some tell us flip phones help them be more present with friends. >> do you know what they need to try? pay phones. >> taking it back old school. it was a quarter at one time. >> a dime. >> didn't it go up from a quarter at one time? >> calling cards. >> and i had a phone before the flip phone.

>> a brick. >> when i upgraded from my pager i had a nokia phone, a flip phone back in the day. >> wow. >> mine was called a computer. >> you've got mail. >> what's old is new. let's also talk about all of the rain we've had and it will be new again, too. we are starting out with a look outside in san francisco where we start out very chilly but it is dry and we're going to be talking about king tides. along the coastline dealing with extremely high tides late morning and extremely low tides in the evening. here is why. the sun is at its closest point to the earth and the moon at its closest point to the earth so all of that gravitational pool is going to make the waves come up higher and further inland.

we will be watching out for that and you do want to make sure if you are going to be out there especially at high tide time that you never turn your back to the water or any time for that matter because it will be very dangerous. we are also going to see temperatures today staying on the cool side. mid to upper 50s. then the heavier coat earlier tomorrow morning. some spots in the north bay will start out near freezing and we could see frosty conditions. we have one more shot that will reinforce the chilly air we're already feeling as well as a little bit of rain. the time line starts at 6:00 in the evening for areas further to the north approaching santa rosa and getting heavier shortly there after that. for san francisco more like 10:00 moving into oakland as well as concord and fairfield and then for san jose it's around midnight and then we're

in for some clearing skies by tomorrow morning. so we're going to quickly see the raindrop about a tenth to a quarter inch of rain and it may be up to half an inch or more for areas further to the north. then we're in for a stretch of dry weather and it's going to stay with us as we go into next week. it's nice to have a chance to let all of that water soak in. we can enjoy some sunshine but it won't be any warmer. take a look at those temperatures especially in the mornings where we dip down into the low 30s in some spots. going into the afternoon upper 50s extending into the weekend but it will be nice for everything going on and all of the things we've had to cancel recently we'll be able to do that under sunshine. mike, you are checking on the san mateo bridge. because kari and i share cameras, the san mateo bridge, we saw some slowing. kari said, hey, isn't that much

for about now? it sorted itself out. it looked like things are jamming up. 92 smooth across the water once again. over here not so smooth but it is flowing. that one-way traffic control continues because that sinkhole continues to block lanes or restrict lanes. we saw a good backup yesterday, lighter traffic today. we'll still see that and one lane blocked westbound 37. we still have standing water and have king tides kari is talking about. that area is low close to the water. 5:23 right now. surviving a layoff. a trend that is increasingly common across a variety of industries. when we come back on "today in the bay," we'll talk about what one doctor is suggesting you do to help cope with the stress of to help cope with the stress of sing a job.lo

going forward and, fourth, understand your target industry. and the fifth is an important one, listen. >> even though this experience can be common for everyone or can happen to anyone it's okay to struggle through it, so don't forget to ask for help whether it's financial help, emotional help. there are people to support you as you go through this decision. >> and finally don't let worry dictate your next move. that's a good one. this story first appeared on nbc lx and you can watch more stories like it right now on various different top inspection by visiting their website, lx.com. you can watch lx on xfinity 185 or over the air on channel 11-5. up next, the top stories we're following including new funding on the way for storm-battered areas along the california coast. heavy surf took out one spot

and clouds throughout much of the morning into the early afternoon before this system drops in. a quick moving cold front will bring us another round of rain and for the north bay it starts about 6:30 this evening up around ukiah approaching santa rosa and moving into san francisco around 10:00 tonight. for san jose more like midnight and already moving out by 2:00 a.m. once again this will sweep across the bay area quickly and bring us much lighter amounts of rain. but we're still watching for the impacts of all of the rain that we've had recently and then colder temperatures settling in. mike, you were saying our view of the golden gate was busy. it's calmed down. i do believe there was one more crew just over the bridge that cleared in the last few minutes which is why traffic was held up just for a few. there's more build here on the east shore freeway, the berkeley curve. taillights traveling down the east shore freeway in through

emeryville out of berkeley and over to the bay bridge. that's the direction they're traveling. your commute is starting to build just a bit. one exclamation point, where there's still a full closure perhaps alvarado road. some mud on the roadway. smaller spots like that around the bay will continue and then larger spots like highway 84. niles canyon is still block through that portion of the tri-valley. a smooth drive, the rest of the highways and freeways and restrictions for highway 92. 17 people are dead including ukraine's interior minister after a helicopter went down outside of kyiv. this as new video of the fiery scene following the crash which happened close to a kindergarten. at least four children also among the dead. 22 other people were among those hurt. the cause of the crash is not immediately clear but comes as ukraine's war with russia approaches the 11th month mark.

president volodymyr zelenskyy is calling the incident a tragedy. the first homicide of the year is under investigation. a man was shot around 7:30 last night. he was taken to the hospital but later died. police are withholding the man's identity. in just a few hours the santa clara valley water authority will discuss what to do to keep unhoused people from living in creek beds. now this comes as we've been seeing all month they're in serious danger during the heavy rains. >> "today in the bay's" kris sanchez joins us with more on action that is expected to happen today. kris? >> reporter: hi there, marcus and laura. the waters are starting to recede in our creeks and rivers all around the bay area, but it's not going to be enough for people to live safely near those creek beds, and that's why the valley water authority is going to have that discussion today.

you saw the danger as valley water, san jose police and the new mayor himself went along creeks and rivers asking people, urging people to leave. many people did relocate and some found shelter at warming centers but that was the temporary solution. today valley water will hold a discussion on the long-term solution. that meeting is coming up at noon. if you want to attend in person, if you want to attend virtually can you find the zoom link at valleywater.org. a similar discussion in oakland as well regarding the wood stream encamencampment. they wanted to clear people out. there is a temporary restraining order barring them from doing that. before anything changes there is a zoom hearing scheduled for february 3rd. now the breaks in the rain won't be long enough for a solution everywhere. if you know somebody who is living unhoused along a creek

bed, urge them to find a different place. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> kris, thank you. we are learning the wharf in capitola damaged by storms will be closed for a year. one of the businesses on the wharf made that announcement on social media. huge waves, some approaching 40 feet, battered the wharf leaving a huge chunk missing. meantime fema is adding monterey county to the major declaration. the ag field of salinas. damage between $40 million and $50 million. the declaration will open federal assistance to people and businesses affected and this comes as president biden is expected to visit the central coast to tour all of that damage. we will bring you live coverage starting tomorrow morning on "today in the bay" and throughout the president's visit. we will also be streaming on roku, amazon fire tv, apple tv and online as well as our

nbcbayarea.com. rain means snow in the sierra. a live look at the palisades tahoe camera. a lot of snow at the top of the lift. we could see up to 11 inches. >> adding to what they already experienced up there. it's been amazing when we talk about the fact they've gotten all of the snow that they need for the year within the course of, like, three or four weeks. we're right now still well over what we typically see for this date. we're at 251% of normal in spots like palisades they've measured over 350 inches of snow. and even if we take it out to the april 1st average, we will still be at 124% of what's normal. so hope flip we do eventually see a little bit more snow after tonight. but then we will have a stretch of dry weather we're expecting and it's almost cold enough to snow in some parts of the bay

area. we're in the mid-30s right now as you get ready to head out the door. we will continue to see more cold mornings over the next several days. as we get the reinforcing shots of chilly air and we return to something that we normally see in january, some chilly weather. headed to the mid to upper 50s today in the south bay reaching 54 in danville and 55 in oakland. for san mateo we're headed for 57 degrees today. the north bay reaching the low to mid-50s. we'll talk more about that rain coming in tonight in a few minutes. mike, you are looking for traffic to build out of the east bay. more traffic flowing but no backup and no stopping and no metering lights not activated as far as reports go anyway. a smooth drive across and out of oakland there but a little build on the incline. out of vallejo, west in to

novato still only one lane available because of continued restrictions. earlier flooding and king tides continue with the issue for the coastal flooding. highway 4, a little build. there may be a new crash so i'll follow up with chp on that one. restrictions westbound lanes are not open but you can travel both directions because of one-way traffic control. you will be able to pass the sinkhole and it's proven to be a slower drive between 280 and highway one. no drive here between mission and 680 because ace train re-established service and the first ace train of the morning made it through the area where we had that mudslide yesterday so at least train number one is on time and so is train number three from what i can tell. 5:39. the campaigning is starting very early.

speaking with the democrats of rossmore. porter is running for the seat held by dianne feinstein. feinstein has not formally even said that she plans to retire. porter attended that event telling those people there that her goal is to, quote, hold those in power accountable. >> i am thrilled to be in this race. i'm sure i'll have competition. i have always had tough races. i'm sure this will be no exception. i have also always won and i don't intend to start changing that now. >> porter isn't the only name floating around associated with feinstein's senate seat. talks have included barbara lee and con man ro khanna from silicon valley. mayors are gathering for the conference of mayors. among them san francisco mayor london breed along with newly elected mayor sheng thao and

matt mahan are participating in panels and discussions on homelessness, the opioid crisis, public safety, jobs and climate changes later today. the white house says that it will not negotiate over the debt ceiling. >> scott mcgrew joins us. you've compared the debt ceiling to credit card statements but a new analogy this morning. >> how about hand grenade. i was talking to a policymaker and the idea of a hand grenade came up. everybody agrees about putting the pin back in the grenade but one side may see an opportunity to negotiate first. a failure to raise the debt ceiling could have explosive results on the economy hurting the stock market, a trun on the dollar, mistrust in the credit of the united states. america has never failed to pay her debt and the white house says it will not negotiate. the white house press secretary saying the debt ceiling is one

of those basic items congress has to deal with and should be done without condition. in the past it mostly has been because the spending question has already happened. it's not new spending. it's covering spending you already have done. speaking of congress, george santos of new york, marjorie taylor greene have been awarded committee assignments. santos lied where he went to high school, college, where he worked, his religion, among other things. greene assigned to homeland security, the committee set up after the 9/11 attacks which at one point greene said were faked. she has since restrakted that statement. >> i also want to tell you 9/11 happened. i remember that day crying all day long watching it on the news. and it's a tragedy for anyone to say it didn't happen, and so that i definitely want to tell you i do not believe that it's fake. >> an interesting report in "the

wall street journal" this morning. the doj considered adding fbi agents to help in the search of president biden's homes after the team reported it found classified documents and turned them over. the report, which nbc has not confirmed, said the decision was made not to add agents because the doj felt it was getting the truth, rather answering the question speaker mccarthy is about to ask. >> were the same amount of agents investigating this as president trump? is the same push behind it? it just does not seem fair. this is why the american people get so upset and distrust their government when they see that the law is not applied equally. >> "the journal" reports, quote, the two sides, the doj and biden team, agreed mr. biden's personal attorneys would inspect the homes, notify the justice department as soon as they identified any potential

classified records and arrange for law enforcement authorities to take them. what do you think about that? let's talk about it on social media. on twitter you can find me @scottmcgrew. jeremy renner is out of the hospital. he tweeted he watched the season two premier of his show with his family at home. he posted about weather conditions in reno and the tahoe area on instagram. the modesto native was seriously hurt new year's day while plowing snow at his home. as a result the actor suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries. i heard it will take him a couple years to fully recover. >> a couple years? >> really tough. many may woke up on the wrong side of the bed and put you in a bad mood for work. >> a new study from the university of arizona found people in a bad mood were able to find mistakes in stories much
