it is mostly clear around the bay area and temperatures are dropping. we're at 36 degrees in san martin, 38 degrees in concord, 35 in santa rosa, with some upper 40s in san francisco. as we take a look at our high temperatures, not bad. we're in the upper 50s and low 60s, a little bit warmer compared to yesterday. but it won't be all clear and sunny. we will start to see some clouds filtering that sunshine, but it does continue to warm up in the forecast. we'll talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. mike, you were looking at the cameras and spotted a quick traffic break. >> you're right, kari, this is a gorgeous view because the traffic break happened as you travel southbound. as you were giving us your climate in crisis, thank you for the word on the ash throated songbird, we were singing a good, happy tune as things reopened on the golden gate bridge. not so happy here, the backup at the bay bridge. the span is much more pleasant. we are seeing speeds just below

the speed limit. typical pattern there and a little bit easier as you join on westbound 80 in el cerrito. a slower drive toward the carquinez bridge. 101 easing up from the first burst and we'll see it kick in again in about a half hour, 45 minutes. back to you. >> thanks, mike. we want to start this half hour with breaking news. this is the latest in turkey and syria following yesterday's powerful 7.8 earthquake. in the last few hours that confirmed number of dead has surpassed 5,000. here's a live look at one neighborhood. this is where the desperate search for anyone continues this morning. a lot of people trapped in the rubble. time is certainly of the essence. not only there, but for global rescue teams. some bay area first responders with turkish roots hope to mobilize soon. the turkish american association of california is now collecting donations. organizers say they are teaming up with turkish airlines to

deliver the much needed supplies. >> so immediate need is actually more rescue groups from the united states, from any other country, k9 units, medical supplies, and a lot of machines like bulldozers to remove debris. >> now, the nonprofit says most needed right now, baby formula, warm clothing, and hand warmers, as well as financial donations. now, could an earthquake that strong rock the bay area? if so, what kind of dev stationed would we see here? >> so coming up for you at 6:30 on "today in the bay," we're going to hear what kind of work is under way in san francisco to shore up buildings to make them safer. it is 6:02. we are hours away from president biden's state of the union address. we have a live look at capitol hill where the pride will speak to the u.s. in front of a joint session of congress. in the audience tonight, at least four people from the

greater bay area. they include two female scientists from lawrence livermore national laboratory. and chuck hammers, business owner of pizza my heart. the restaurant suffered severe storm damage last month and was one of the businesses president biden visited when he was here. and half moon bay farmworker advocate belinda hernandez will be in attendance. a white house official says president biden's tone will be optimistic when it comes to the future of the country. "today in the bay's" brie jackson is live on capitol hill this morning with a preview of what we can expect. >> reporter: good morning, laura. well, president biden is expected to talk about how far the country has come over the past two years since he's taken office, and talk about overcoming the challenges faced during the covid-19 pandemic. president biden preparing to deliver his state of the union address tonight. >> let them know the state of

affairs, what's going on, what i'm looking forward to working on from this point on, what i've done. >> reporter: touting accomplishments, including record low unemployment, rebuilding the nation's infrastructure and lowering prescription drug prices, while making changes to address challenges, such as rising tensions with china after the u.s. shot down their surveillance balloon. >> we're not going to back off. we did the right thing. >> reporter: facing a divided congress, the president will call for bipartisanship. >> he's going to talk about how we can finish the job and how we can keep getting things done over the next two years. >> reporter: republicans launching a series of investigations, ranging from mr. biden's handling of classified documents to the influx of immigrants crossing the southern border. >> the number of illegal immigrants who cross our border in just two years easily exceeds the populations of 25 states. >> reporter: the latest nbc news poll shows the president's approval rating sits at just 45%, sinking to 36% when it

comes to his handling of the economy. >> the way the administration is now, is not taking care of ouve our own people. >> he's done as much as he can with the cards he's been dealt. >> reporter: tonight the president will send a message directly to the american public about his vision for the country and his political future. arkansas governor sarah huckabee sanders will deliver the republican response to president biden's state of the union address. >> so much to watch tonight. thanks for the very latest. and you can watch the state of the union address tonight right here on nbc bay area, nbc's lester holt and savannah guthrie will lead our coverage starting at 6:00. now, locally we'll come back on air and on roku at 9:00 p.m. in our 11:00 p.m. newscast will air as scheduled. in the bay area, police say a homeless man walking outside the crosswalk was struck and killed by a car last night in san jose. it happened at monterey highway

and blossom hill road. the driver remained on the scene and is cooperating with police. this is the fourth traffic fatality in san jose so far this year. last year there were 32 pedestrian deaths in san jose. it is 6:05 right now. righting the wrongs. today san francisco supervisors will discuss if and how to pay reparations to african american san franciscans. it's bound to be a passionate conversation and the proposal will come with a big price tag. >> "today in the bay's" kris sanchez is joining us to talk about what's on the table with the first draft of the proposal. >> good morning to you, marcus and laura. for a year and a half the city's reparations committee has worked to identify how the city's african americans were held back by city policies and how to help them move forward. today san francisco supervisors will hear their proposal in full for the first time. it gives the redevelopment of the philmore district as one example of harm.

it was considered the harlem of the west and part of the african american renaissance. the chairman of the advisory committee says that redevelopment left black people out. the committee's proposal seeks to rectify situations like that one and it seeks to create new policies to help black families in san francisco prosper on equal footing without the challenges that lasted long after emancipation. >> everything from denial of services to removal from employment or just outright refusal around employment opportunities. land was taken, homes were destroyed, businesses lost, and so those are at a high level chronicled in the report and those are the basis for the recommendations that we made. >> here is part of the plan supervisors will hear today to offer reparations to anyone over the age of 18 whose identified as black or african american on public documents for at least ten years. some criteria, they have to be

san francisco born or have migrated to the city between 1940 and 1996. people deskenlded from a person enslaved before 1965 will also be eligible. each person who meets the criteria will be eligible for a $5 million lump sum payment. the proposal recommends supplementing low income households for at least 250 years. you're likely wondering how would san francisco pay for all of this. that will be part of the discussion at the supervisors meeting. and if san francisco moves forward, it wouldn't be the first city to offer reparations, but it would be the first large city in america to offer reparations to its african american citizens. >> something to certainly follow. thank you very much. it is 6:08. we're also following the forecast. we take a live look out in the north bay this morning in san rafael. we'll check the morning commute and see if things are picking up in just a moment. let's check in with kari.

>> it seems like we've gotten used to cold mornings. we've had a lot of them. as we take a look at what's going on across the region, it's been clear but we are seeing clouds and even some rain hitting the pacific northwest. we will continue to stay dry at the system moves close by and brings us more clouds. but the rain dries up before it gets here. if you're heading out the door in foster city, leave the umbrella at home. we're going from 4:00 at 7:00 to mid-50s, overall kind of cool with upper 50s for the tri-valley, low 60s for the south bay, up to 64 degrees in the south county this afternoon. this warming trend continues. we'll talk more about that in a few minutes. mike, we're still seeing pretty high gas prices. >> in fact, we're getting higher. i look at gasbuddy.com. vallejo has a couple of spots below the $4 mark. i'll call out grand gas on springs road at $3.99. dublin, alameda county's best at $3.93, the exxon.

and we'll point to grand gasoline on union avenue in san jose, one of the best at $3.97 at grand gasoline. we still have the $3.69 in cupertino at great gas. looking toward the rest of santa clara county, speeds are moving nicely. we are looking at typical patterns, 880 southbound, through the tri-valley and coming out of oakland there. looking at travel time building for vasco road, about 35 minutes from marsh creek down to 580. the metering lights have been on since about a half hour ago. back to you. >> thanks, mike. legalizing low riders. next on "today in the bay," the new push in california to put the brakes on the decades long cruising van. >> what's easier to learn t guitar or piano? and what does that have to do with artificial intelligence? we'll tell you that coming up. i see in your crystal ball the

markets. >> don't let this guy's face fool you. the reason one animal shelter has dubbed this pickup ralphie the demon. we'll tell you what happened after it went viral. you won't want to miss it. we're back in just under three minutes. minutes.

i have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. now, there's skyrizi. with skyrizi 3 out of 4 people achieved 90% clearer skin at 4 months, after just 2 doses. serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections or a lower ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine or plan to. ♪♪ ♪ it's my moment so i just gotta say ♪ ♪ nothing is everything ♪ talk to your dermatologist about skyrizi. learn how abbvie could help you save.

let's head to the tri-valley with a look at danville. temperatures in the upper 30s and it's going to be clear with light wind. temperatures dip a few more degrees around sunrise and then slowly warm up. you'll notice more clouds, but we're still making it into the upper 50s here and we'll talk about slightly warmer temperatures in the forecast in just a few minutes. connecting the nimitz with highway 101, a smooth drive for 92, a little lighter farther south on the dumbarton bridges. we're watching the build, of course, approaching the bay bridge toll plaza out of oakland and we may have a new incident on the peninsula. we'll check again coming up. happy tuesday to you. fed chairman jay powell makes a public speech today, a week after his open markets committee raised interest rates again. it's going to be interesting to watch, because since that time we got more evidence the economy is not slowing down and it's his job to slow the economy down. google noticing that 30 million people are using chatgpt, the

new ai website, and thinking to themselves, we've got to get in on that. the company says it will introduce something called bard in the next few weeks. if you had a question like is it easier to learn the guitar or piano, google would find articles that answer the question. the new bard ai would actually answer the question, it would do the research for you and just tell you as if you had asked a music teacher. this seems to be very much the future of search. it's hard to overstate how popular chatgpt is and how uneasy it has google. >> bed, bath & beyond, that company close to bankruptcy, is reportedly thinking about selling more stock. that would help it raise money. there are obvious risks in buying a share in a company that just a few days ago said it may file for chapter 11, but it can be done. amc movie theatres did this.

went from nearly bankrupt to selling new stock. amc ready to introduce tiered seat sales like an airplane, first class, coach, basic. amc calls it preferred, standard and value. preferred seats are in the middle. value up front under the screen. the middle, coach class, called standard, will be the same price as they are now. >> president biden is going to give his state of the union address tonight. we'll talk a lot about that as we talk politics a little earlier today, about 6:30. one of the things he's going to proposal is a bigger tax on stock buybacks. as we talk about biden, we're going to talk about some comparisons to clinton. both had that reversal in the house, losing to republicans. clinton was able to turn that around and got himself a second term. a lot of it dates back to that very state of the union address. >> interesting. >> a little history lesson. >> his approval ratings aren't great right now. >> no, they are not. >> thank you. state leaders are considering a new bill that

would repeal a statewide ban on low riding. the measure would prohibit authorities have stopping drivers from cruising or driving cars modified to a lower height. last year san jose council members repealed the city ban first implemented in 1986. critics called that ban discriminatory and a card commonly played by police to pull over young people. >> wait until you see me cruising into work. >> and the music loud. >> who is that kid in there? >> 6:17 right now. trending this morning, a match made in heaven for a sassy dog some thought might never be adopted. >> we like sassy sometimes. when a shelter in new york first posted ralphie last month, there were some concerns that went viral. he was billed on facebook as a 26-pound jerk of a french bulldog and a terror in a somewhat small package. the posting suggested his cute face got him whatever he wanted and boundaries are something he

heard people talk about, but they didn't apply to him. great news here, ralphie the demon dog, as they called him, he was adopted, and his new owner says he is a little bit of a nipper, but the two are completely in love. so cute. >> he's got some hops. >> no kidding. get that little treat. that's nice. so these clear days are perfect. i'm finally getting to take the dog out. >> do you all need to throw on a jacket? >> oh, yeah, of course. if it's cold enough. >> in the low rider. >> yeah, right. the other day we got caught in the rain. >> you don't have to worry about that now. the next few days it's going to be dry. we have good walking weather, whatever you plan to do. we are going to start out all clear this morning. we're taking a live look from emeryville toward the bay bridge. we are waiting for a very nice sunrise. you've got to get the kids up and ready. let's get you ready for the day

in milpitas. 45 degrees at drop off and 59 at pick up. eventually we'll make it up to 62 in san jose and los gatos, 62 in fremont. we'll see a high of 62 in mountain view. let me show you what to expect tomorrow, slightly warmer temperatures. we'll feel that in santa rosa as we head for 66 degrees and then look at thursday, even some low 70s in the south county. morgan hill reaching 71 degrees. we'll be in the mid-60s from concord toward martinez. overall dry, but we are going to see a couple of systems get very close with some rain. it looks like on friday the rain stays just to the north of us, but it will cool down those temperatures and that's what we'll see for the weekend. early next week we may be tracking showers. look at the time. it's right on valentine's day, we may have some rain moving in. we'll see if the system can hold

it together and bring us moisture as we go toward the middle of next week. but as far as what the models are plotting, anywhere from a trace in parts of the north bay to about one-half of rain possible for east bay and the peninsula if the storm system next week makes it all the way to the bay area without drying up. and then the sierra could see another foot to possibly a foot and one-half of snow, but i'm running the model through the end of next week. so we are dry as we go through the next several days. our temperatures are warming up. still cold mornings, but look at those afternoon temperatures on thursday, near 70 degrees. it will be cooler for the weekend but it looks like the sunshine continues. if you're heading out of san francisco down the peninsula on 101, just a heads-up, after 92 you'll see slowing. two of the five lanes are blocked right now by a crash heading south toward ralston. it seems like things should clear quickly. chp knows about it.

el camino is great if you don't have to get on until after ralston. 280 is clear. i don't think you need to switch over. i think that will be clear in the next few. there may be something farther south through palo alto and 280 should have cleared to the shoulder there. south bay, typical pattern. no surprises through the dublin interchange. back to you. >> thanks, mike. it is 6:21. coming up next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> reporter: she says her brand new kitchen cabinets were installed, damaged, and after a year, the company still hadn't fixed them. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura. nbc bay area responds and finds a lesson for you, too, next. >> first, we want to continue our series discover black heritage, and introduce you to influential african americans who have left a mark on the bay area. i would like to introduce you to and highlight ahmed muhammad. he was an oakland technical high

school valedictorian, the first medical black valedictorian there. he is an engineer at stanford. in 2020 he founded kids cubed, a youth-led nonprofit organization based in oakland. its goal is to excite young students about the wonders of science. in three years, the kits are in the hands of thousands of students. truly inspirational. it doesn't matter how young you

(vo) call the number on your screen to learn more about medicare plans in your neighborhood that include caremore.

welcome back. nbc bay area responds to an east bay woman whose brand new kitchen cabinets were a mess. >> consumer investigator chris chmura's team jumped in to straighten things out. >> jennifer in livermore says she paid lowe's $11.567 to install new kitchen cabinets. she got a smorgasbord of problems. check out her photos. she has peeling paint, a damaged corner, and she has some doors that rub up against her appliances and won't close. jennifer says she complained, she says lowe's promised a fix, but a year later, nothing. so she called us. we went back and forth with lowe's for five months. then jennifer told us that she was happy with the outcome but wouldn't couldn't say any more. that's a sign she might have been asked to sign a nondisclosure agreement to

settle her case. all we know is jennifer had told us she wouldn't be happy unless she got her cabinets fixed and at least a partial refund and now she says she's happy. lowe's told us that its customer relations department worked directly with jennifer to address her concerns and we are pleased that the issue has been resolved. sounds like an $11,000 win for jennifer. so there is a good lesson here for everyone. if you're having something installed in your home, anything, snap lots of photos at every step. that's what jennifer did. and it really helped make her case. jennifer contacted us online. you can, too. scan the qr code on your screen to fill out our consumer complaint form online. >> thanks, chris. 6:26 this morning. and we are monitoring the situation in turkey and syria. this is after the devastating earthquake. it has many people here in the bay area asking, are we prepared? ahead, the steps local leaders are taking to minimize potential damage when the next big one

strikes. plus, just into our newsroom, a tesla crashes into a home in the east bay. details on what may have happened and the mystery police are still trying to unravel. >> reporter: plus, sticker shock over your latest pg&e bill? governor newsom's call into a federal investigation into the high price of natural gas and a key meeting getting under way key meeting getting under way - life is uncertain.

72 hours is kind of the threshold of how long someone could theoretically be viable. and breaking right now at 6:30, time is critical in turkey. this is where the desperate search continues to save people trapped in the rubble. a live look at the devastation from yesterday's powerful earthquake and how the bay area cities are staying prepared for the next big one. >> president biden ready to make his state of the union address. ahead, the challenges he has and how these midterm speeches can make or break a president's future. >> and trying to rein in skyrocketing utility rates. governor newsom's new call for a federal investigation as the cost to heat your home surges. this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, amazon fire, and online. 6:30 on your tuesday morning. thanks for starting your morning with us. i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. first, we want to start with the forecast for you.

another chilly start to the morning. meteorologist kari hall is monitoring that. >> a chilly morning but a nice rebound going into the afternoon. we're starting out in san jose at 40 degrees. you can see the trend as we make it into the mid-50s and eventually into the low 60s for later today. we will still have some slightly warmer temperatures in the forecast as we will see more dry weather over the next few days. oakland today reaching 62 degrees. 62 in santa rosa and 64 in san martin. we are going to once again see this nice weather continue. we'll talk more about that, as well as when we could see some rain in the forecast. that's coming up in just a few minutes. >> thank you very much, kari. we start this half hour with breaking news in the latest in turkey and syria, where more than 5,000 deaths are confirmed from yesterday's powerful 7.8 earthquake. we have a live look at one neighborhood where the search continues for survivors trapped in the rubble. and new drone video to show you how widespread some of the

damage is. authorities say in turkey alone, more than 6,000 buildings have collapsed. for some, the devastation there is a reminder of potential earthquake vulnerability right here in the bay area. the most striking example in modern times, the loma prieta quake in 1989 where unreinforced homes in san francisco's marina district were flattened as multiple fires broke out. since then, experts say much has been done to improve seismic safety. as part of the 30-year plan to reinforce large structures, that's now 90% finished. >> that is protecting about 114,000 people that live in five-plus unit buildings that are three stories or greater. >> such a devastating memory here in the bay area. the city completed a retrofit program for all unreinforced masonry buildings back in 2005.

the "today" show will continue our coverage. they have a team of reporters on the ground in turkey and syria with the very latest developments on what's going on there. 6:32 right now. just into our newsroom, new video of that san ramon car that crashed into a home. this is showing the tesla plowing through the wall of that home and police say the tesla may have been accelerated by itself. this is with the driver still in the vehicle. you can see the damage there to what is, we're told, the kitchen. this all happened around 9:30 last night along poinsettia street in san ramon. the driver is unhurt and it's not clear how the tesla suddenly became engaged. you may have noticed the big jolt this winter if you were trying to make it in the bay. the cost to heat your home is skyrocketing and now governor newsom is demanding answers. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live in the east bay. bob, in just a few hours, the

state energy regulators are going to try to dig up some answers for us. >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus. in about two and a half hours the cpuc, the california public utilities commission, will hold a hearing to look into why we're paying so much more for natural gas this winter and also to try to figure out a way we can avoid these future price spikes not only in natural gas but electricity as well. yesterday governor newsom sent a letter to the federal energy regulatory commission asking for an investigation into the natural gas price spike. the governor wants the commission to determine if those prices are being driven by market manipulation or other anticompetitive behavior. in a statement, the governor wrote, millions of california families are opening their utility bills to sticker shock and we're taking action now to provide relief to help with those high gas bills. that action, a credit on next month's pg&e bill. the cpuc has voted to accelerate

the climate credit, which could amount to anywhere between $90 and $120 on your march bill. the public advocates office with the cpuc says it supports governor newsom's request for a federal investigation. many people are seeing a spike on their pg&e bills, with one homeowner recently telling us his january bill was just shy of $600. today cpuc, the hearing is virtual. there will be an opportunity for public comment. we'll bring you an update on our midday newscast. reporting live in livermore, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you. 6:35 right now. president biden is ready to deliver the state of the union address tonight. nbc will, of course, carry that live. >> scott mcgrew, we expect the president will talk about bipartisanship at a time when we don't see many people wanting to do that. >> yes, but he is good at that. joe biden has been calling for bipartisanship since he was a brand new senator from delaware.

he's good at reaching across the aisle. here is andrea mitchell speaking to chuck todd last year as president biden prepared to deliver his first state of the union. >> this could be a rare moment of bipartisanship, he's hoping, the kind that he remembers, politics stopping at the water's edge on foreign policy. >> there's blue and yellow in the crowd. >> and they're wearing pins, the ukrainian flag with the u.s. flag. >> tonight we meet as democrats, republicans and independents, but most importantly, as americans, with a duty to one another, to america, to the american people, to the constitution. >> last year president biden had two allies over his shoulder, his vice president and democratic speaker of the house, nancy pelosi. that's not going to be true this year. this year it will be republican speaker of the house, kevin mccarthy, and of course there will be more republican members of the house in the audience this year. now, it's one thing to call for

bipartisanship when you're in the majority, another when you're not. it was even worse for bill clinton at his '95 state of the union after clinton's democrats took a shellacking in the midterms. republicans sitting over the president's shoulder as speaker for the first time since 1956. and yet this is where political scientists say clinton really began his successful run for re-election, a second term. we don't know if biden is running for a second term, but he has a lot going for him with the economy. lowest unemployment rate in 60 years, job growth, wage growth, even inflation is coming down. here is the president on friday giving us a preview. >> today i'm happy to report that the state of the union and the state of our economy is strong. we learned this morning that the economy has created 517,000 jobs just last month. more than half a million jobs in just the month of january. >> now, that's the upsigh.

the downside or risks tonight, mr. biden will be speaking for an hour or so. he needs to keep that energy up. the accuracy in what he's saying top of mind. president biden has been the target of many who point out he sometimes struggles to speak. he's always struggled, he's talked publicly about his stutter. but he's also 80 and that becomes an issue for many americans. recently the president clearly momentarily forgot the title of secretary of defense, who has standing behind him. >> the secretary of state, the secretary of the -- of the military behind me are -- they've been deeply, deeply involved in this whole effort. >> now, we haven't seen the speech but the white house does brief us on themes in the speech, no doubt. so we'll talk about them before and after. number one is the economy. we've already touched on that. two, working together. he's going to talk about american pride, something that both sides can agree on.

and, of course, tough on foreign policy, tough on russia, tough on china. former white house press secretary, now republican governor of arkansas, sarah huckabee sanders, will deliver the republican response. that comes right after the state of the union. >> and, scott, we know that there are always special guests, but it's striking how many of them are actually a witness to violence. >> yeah, the leaders from half moon bay will be there, the hero who disarm today shooter in the lunar new year dance down in monterey park. paul pelosi will be there. the family of tyre nichols. the victim of the police violence in memphis. you may see buttons like this on some members of congress, 1870, marking the first year an unarmed black citizen was killed by an american police officer. the officer was convicted of manslaughter. those are being handed out by the black caucus. >> interesting. shows the state of our nation. so concerning. >> i suspect some blue and yellow as well.

>> 1870. >> thank you. nbc will start live coverage of the state of the union tonight at 6:00. we do have some newscast changes ahead. we will not be airing a local 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. newscast, but we will come back on air and on roku at 9:00 p.m. tonight with a wrap-up of the address, and of course your local news headlines. our 11:00 p.m. newscast will air as scheduled. and supporters plan to hold another rally later this morning calling for the reinstatement of suspended oakland police chief leronne armstrong. yesterday armstrong sent a formal letter asking the police commission and mayor sheng thao for reinstatement. armstrong is currently on administrative leave after a report concluding that the police department mishandled cases of officer misconduct. the chief says that there's no evidence to suggest that he did anything wrong. today's rally is taking place outside of oakland police headquarters. 6:40 this morning. we take a live look out at the golden gate bridge here in san

francisco. a little bit foggier there than it was over the city earlier. meteorologist kari hall is tracking what we can expect weatherwise out there and certainly a cold start. >> it's cold all around the bay area. take a look at these temperatures as you're getting ready to step out the door. 34 degrees in dublin and it is freezing in san martin. we've dipped down to 32 degrees. it's 42 in san rafael and we have some low 40s for oakland right now. after this cold start, there will be a nice rebound in those temperatures today. spots like dublin are going from 38 degrees to upper 40s at 10:00. and then as we go into the afternoon it won't be as clear and sunny as yesterday, but we have temperatures that will get a little bit of a boost compared to yesterday with a high of 62 in san jose, as well as some low 60s for parts of the north bay. we'll talk about the warming trend continuing in just a few minutes. mike, you were looking at the timing throughout the day. >> especially because right now the timing is pretty typical of
