thousands of pg&e customers in the last round in los gatos, people were making sure propane tanks were topped off, making sure generators were good to go, and clearing any debris that they could. in some neighborhoods, we also found people were stocking up on water as well. >> water company here is based on using a pump to deliver water to the up hill systems, and that runs off a generator that reuses propane, and propane deliveries are hard to come by right now. >> reporter: we did reach out to pg&e to see how they are preparing as well. they say they are focused on the storm on the south bay and the peninsula. they are staging equipment in critical areas in these two regions, and they are bringing in additional crews. they are also warning customers in critical areas like the santa cruz mountains to be ready to lose power again. they said last time some folks were without power for five

days. so that's a lot of supplies and not a lot of time to get ready if you haven't started. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> it's frustrating for a lot of folks. >> reporter: there you see the wind. >> no doubt can feel it. stay dry if you can. we want to see what the rain looks like where you live. tag us in pictures and video on social media. we'll be watching for them on twitter, facebook and instagram. 6:04 right now. in washington and new york city, authorities are bracing for possible unrest in the event of an indictment against former president donald trump. police officers putting up barriers here. this is outside the capitol building. this right here at the manhattan d.a.'s office where the grand jury is debating possible charges tied to hush money allegations. no credible threats and several sources now telling nbc there

"today in the bay's" brie jackson live tracking all of this. i want to ask you all of this. if the former president is charged he'll be the first u.s. president to face an indictment for a crime. >> that's right, good morning, marcus. it would be an unprecedented moment, but sources do tell nbc news that they do not expect any indictment today. that's because the grand jury does not meet until wednesday. but either way, former president trump took to social media overnight blasting the investigation. >> reporter: former president trump railing against investigators this morning. >> it's just a continuation of the most disgusting witch hunt. >> reporter: all eyes are on a new york city grand jury today. after trump predicted he'd be arrested in connection to alleged hush money paid to adult film star stormy daniels ahead

of the 2016 election. robert costello, a key witness for trump, testified monday. >> michael cohen told us that he was approached by stormy daniels' lawyer, and stormy daniels had negative information that she wanted to put in a lawsuit against trump. >> cohen, trump's former fixer alleged trump paid him $130,000 to buy daniels' silence. costello, who claims he was cohen's attorney attacked his credibility, but cohen fired back. >> pretty much almost everything that bob costello said will be once again proven to be inaccurate as it relates to me. >> reporter: top republicans coming to trump's defense. >> i believe the epitome of the weaponization of the federal government and departments against political opponents. >> reporter: manhattan's district attorney, democratic alvin bragg is weighing potential charges against the 2024 presidential hopeful. >> i think if it's a misdemeanor there would be more political consequences than legal

consequences. >> reporter: one question that could be answered today, will or won't trump be indicted. and if the former president is indicted, sources tell nbc news that the secret service would accompany mr. trump throughout the process. that includes possibly surrendering and making an initial court appearance trying to do all of this keeping mr. trump out of public view. marcus. >> brie jackson in washington. thank you. our coverage continues at 6:30. scott mcgrew is going to break down everything you need to know about the grand jury investigation including former president trump's efforts to squash another investigation. 6:07. landlords will call on the eviction moratorium. most will end on april 28th. berkeley's is extended through august. landlords argue the moratorium

any size, even deposits bigger than a quarter million. all to calm the banking industry down, and keep money moving. they'll get banks the money they need through something called the discount window. this will actually be a literal teller window for banks. it's all virtual now, and it is wide open. the situation here is very weird. the fed is trying to reduce the amount of cash in the economy by raising interest rates. but it's also assuring banks there's plenty of money available. this is like one guy on one side of a boat bailing water out of the boat while the other guy on the other side of the boat is bailing the water into the boat. it's hard to say what the fed's going to do tomorrow after its two-day meeting. that meeting starts today. maybe another interest rate hike, but it's of course interest rate hikes that have caused all the problems. this news that maybe the government will back up more than 250,000 just got the banks

so relieved. >> consumers with a big bank account. >> yes. >> and i know it's hard to feel sorry for people with more than $250,000 in the bank. if that's all they guarantee, and the bank seems it's in trouble, you're going to pull your money. >> it's not so much feeling sorry for the people, it's realizing that those people make investments that keep the economy going. >> and they may payroll. >> exactly. perspective. thank you. >> you bet. 6:16 for you this morning. new for you with baseball season nearing full swing, it's back to business for beloved giants broadcasters john miller. >> with open arms, open minds, the city has helped me be me. it's shown everyone when you brbring diffferent togegether, move the world forward. >> a great voice there, too. miller is the voice of a new campaign on behalf of san francisco and a coalition of business groups.

flooding concerns into central california as well. but we're starting to see some of those heavier pockets coming down in santa cruz, gilroy, and through the san jose stretch making its approach, light to moderate right now. san rafael, san francisco, fairfield and concord as well. notice in san jose, just light rain coming through, and it will stay kind of widespread pretty much the entire morning. if you notice by 9:30, we do get some rain shadowing here. it happens, and then notice by about 1:30, it becomes way more scattered. but on and off again, none the less. once the line of showers passes through, behind that, the winds begin to cause issues, and that's where we start to see gusty conditions ramp up, especially for the santa cruz mountains. this goes into effect starting at 7:00 a.m. 60 plus miles per hour winds could bring the potential for downed trees. rainfall totals, you'll notice the purple color over santa

cruz. the model runs are showing a little bit too much rain for parts of the north bay. aside from that, any form of rain at this point, as far as saturate goes can be problematic. we're going to monitor rivers and stream flows, no flood watches or warnings are in effect now. there is a winter storm advisory in place for the sierra. gusty conditions, 70 plus. snow may also turn into rain below 6,500 feet. avalanche warnings could be a problem. to give an idea where we stand for the statewide average, 225% with 218% of that april 1st average as of this morning. now, your 7-day stretch will continue into early wednesday morning, and then we finally fall in line with a pattern just in time for the weekend. let's get a check of the roads with mike. >> showing folks rain around the bay. there's a few drops on the lens at the bay bridge toll plaza. many more cars. we'll talk about the backup. as the rain comes in, we'll see more slowing. where the volume is building right now, 37.

golden gate field, the bay bridge toll plaza. more rain coming in may complicate things. we see the wind pushing across the bay, and wet roadways across contra costa county, alameda county, and the south bay. back to you. nbc bay area responds. a vacation rental host might have cameras watching you, so you need to look for them, beginning with your search for a vacation rental. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, we'll show you how next.

6:24, and a micro weather alert coverage continues when we return at 6:30. look at all the green we have on the radar right there. we're tracking the latest storm, plus all the commute issues starting to pop up as the roads get wet this morning. >> that's right. if you think cameras are totally forbidden from vacation rentals, your host might be able to have a camera outside the house, and inside parts of the house. vrbo permits cameras outside but not inside. airbnb says we require hosts to disclose all security camera ands other recording devices in their listings. and that's the first place you

should look for a camera, in the listing. look under house rules. say there's no camera listed there. message the host with a question like this, where do you use security cameras. if you get a cagey answer, let the booking company know about it. once you arrive at a property, you can take a couple of steps to scan for cameras. look for obvious ones. look for things like nanny cams and baby monitors. many connect to the internet using home wi-fi. you can download an app like fing to see all the devices connected to home wi-fi. fing is free to load but you'll possibly see in-app purchases. say you find a camera that's not supposed to be there, what should you do. both airbnb and vrbo said contact them immediately to investigate and make things right. you can also contact a lawyer and law enforcement, especially if you think a camera was intentionally concealed to invade your privacy. >> thanks, chris.

we are back again, take a look at the green on the radar. you can see the brunt of the storm happening right now right there over the santa cruz area and san jose. meteorologist vianey arana is tracking that. she's going to have that coming up in just a bit. more rain on the way, the continued impact on our infrastructure because of the last storm. >> l.a. schools are shut down today. the reason why workers at one of the biggest school districts in the nation are walking off the job for the next few days. all of this and so much more right ahead for you this morning on "today in the bay."

right now at 6:30, the next storm making its way into the bay area. we're tracking the outlook for strong winds expected in your neighborhood. and a new freeway trouble spot, we're monitoring possible spots for evening commuters after part of a retaining wall moves down an embankment. will former president trump be arrested today? he seems to think so. breaking down the latest on the possible indictment. this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, xumo and online. it's 6:30 on tuesday morning, thanks for starting your day with us, i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. let's get right to our big story this morning as you take a live look outside, you can see we're monitoring across the bay area,

as the rain makes its way in oakland, you can see on the camera there, the sprinkles on there. meteorologist vianey arana tracking the storm hitting the bay area right now. certainly rain in spots of the bay area. >> light to moderate rain. >> santa cruz is going to get the most when it comes to rainfall totals, but this new system is moving just what we saw forecasted, really for the days leading up to it. the heavy rain, central southern, we're still going to get rain out of it, though. be mindful of that. san jose, you'll notice we're going to keep scattered showers through the early afternoon. san francisco right now, about 52 degrees. also with the scattered shower activity, but i'm really concerned about the winds out of the system. the wind advisories and wind warnings kick in at 7:00 a.m. daytime highs will be comfortable in the 50s, and then as we head in towards, you know, the 1:00, 2:00 hour, we could see some winds upwards of 60 plus in santa cruz. we've seen the impact this has had with downed trees on the roads. i'm hoping we don't see that

today. how are things looking now. >> we haven't had the reports for 17. the san mateo bridge, a good illustration, as we have been watching all morning. now the rain is creeping across, from the peninsula, over to the east bay. we'll show you on the maps as well. there is slowing on the high-rise. i think more rain is currently hitting the portion of 92. and that's wise because you want to always maintain good control. the green dominating the map. the index shows you will have slicker roadways. i'm concerned about this. not the altamont pass, that's a typical build coming into the area. showing some more slowing, and wet roads, puddling and ponding in the areas. watch for the blue highlighting areas. it's eastbound, getting away from us, that is counter commute. it's not a problem right now for those speeds. we do have an issue there. it might be complicated for the rain. you guys explain that story. >> all that recent storm data we have been talking about. taking a big toll on

infrastructure. sometimes even when we're in a break from all of the wet weather. >> we're talking about the roadways here. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live along interstate 580 at the altamont pass this morning. workers are trying to repair a major commuter artery there. >> they are. we're on eastbound 580, just east of north lynn road. if you're not familiar, this is the altamont pass, east of livermore, and you can see the bright lights behind me. that is a caltrans worker crew that has been out here since yesterday, trying to repair major damage along eastbound 580. we've got video here from nbc bay area, sky ranger, give you a better sense of what happened. you can see a large chunk of the right shoulder of the eastbound direction of the freeway, along with the k rail has slid down the adjacent hillside. this started as a crack in the road, then worsened as the grass and soil saturated by all of this rain just gave away. as a result, the far right lane is shut down, but this is in the

reverse direction for the morning commute. so it's not impacting drivers trying to get into the bay area. it could be an issue tonight as commuters return to the central valley, if caltrans isn't finished by then. there is no estimated time on when this work behind me will be completed. reporting live here on the altamont pass, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> bob, thank you. i feel bad for bob, pretty foggy right now. 6:33. we want to get the latest on the possible indictment of former president donald trump. >> scott mcgrew joining us now. the former president said he would be arrested today. >> right. and really he's the only person. it's a good reminder. it's only the former president who says today is the day. prosecutors in manhattan have been mum about what's going to happen next. we don't know if the manhattan grand jury will indict trump at all. we do know law enforcement has been prepping, both in new york city, and washington, but again, individual officers don't know

anything more than we do. only that an indictment may be coming and trump has been called for protests. the case in new york involves trump's payments to his lawyer, paying him back for paying off adult film actress stormy daniels. there are allegations trump misreported hush payments as legal expenses and falsifying financial documents is against the law in new york city. now, do americans think this is serious? it depends on how you ask and, of course, who you ask. an economist you gov poll asked is it a crime for a candidate to pay someone to remain silence about something that could affect an election. 72% of americans say, yeah, it's a crime. 11% no. the rest undecided. when the same pollsters point out, well, that's what donald trump has been accused of, just

45% of republicans say it's a serious or somewhat serious issue. keep in mind the thing in new york might be the first indictment but it may not be the most serious. there's also a prosecutor in atlanta looking into the phone calls trump made to try to influence the vote count there, all on tape. >> i just want to find 11,780 votes. >> then there's the other prosecutor, jack smith, who's looking into trump's role in the attack on january 6th and the documents found at trump's mar-a-lago home. more importantly, how trump reacted. did it add up to obstruction. that obstruction case, if there is obstruction, is way way more worrisome for a dependent than this case in manhattan that we're talking about. marcus will certainly monitor what happens today, and you know will break into any programming to let you know if it happens. >> scott, thank you.

happening now, the state department investigating weekend vandalism during a protest at the indian consulate in san francisco's inner richmond, demonstrators shattered windows in a chaotic protest that left some embassy workers slightly injured. here's video of what happened and when it happened. protesters there say that the situation escalated when embassy workers got into a confrontation over flags placed at the interests. happening now, the nation's largest school district is cancelling classes as workers start a three-day strike. the closure will affect 3,000 students in the los angeles school district. workers are protesting after failing to reach an agreement over pay with the superintendent of the district. teachers represented by a separate union say they will also strike with the school workers. the superintendent says he is still willing to negotiate. take a live look out this

morning. as we get started with the day, meteorologist vianey arana, of course, has been watching over all of this rain that we have been getting in the area. look, i mean, i just want a break. luckily, we're getting a slight break, if you think about it. >> we had the atmospheric river developing in southern california, we're getting the low pressure system where it converges up top. we're getting a specific storm system, the tap of the river is going to be focused on southern california. unfortunately they will be dealing with, well, flood watches, flood warnings through the afternoon. let's get a look right now at satellite and radar, where we're starting to see some of the heavier rain pick up. in through santa cruz, you'll notice some heavier pockets, orange and reds, right there. you can see it, about to make its move into san jose as well. down through gilroy, along highway 101. if i zoom in a little bit closer, you can see heavier rain at times. through the south bay, the south bay will be the main focus of the next system. everything north of the golden

gate bridge will be more of a light to moderate effect. so keep this in mind because the possibility of downed trees is going to remain through the entire day. i put this through 10:00 a.m. as some continues to push through. napa, santa rosa, we get a little bit of a break. become scattered by 2:00, and we see more rain pickup, we see periods of on and off rain, another round of the cold front sweeps through now. this is going to move in later this evening. the winds will be kicking up as well. that's going to bring instability. what that can do is bring the possibility of hail, and even thunderstorm activity. long range outlook does look like the highest totals will be in the santa cruz mountains, and that means anywhere from about 3 to just a little over 3 inches, potentially for the bulls eye zones. everywhere else, we could see a quarter of an inch to a little over an inch for most. high wind warnings go into effect starting at 7:00 a.m., along with wind advisories,

winds from the south, gusting upwards of 60 plus. that has me more concerned than anything. i want to give you a recap. january and february of 2022, was noted as one of the top ten driest on record. santa rosa had only seen trace amounts by that point. to today, fast forward, we are currently at a surplus in santa rosa of nearly 9 inches on the map. look at oakland, 12 inches, san francisco, 10 inches, that put us at 80% in santa rosa, very nice look compared to what we had. the rain did good for us on our drought monitor. let's get a look at how the roads are doing. >> talk about the rain on your commute right now, the bay bridge and the rain on the lens, coinciding, so that will slow down your approach as we see general slowing now. el cerrito, richmond, berkeley, the bridge over toward the north

bay where we have the road index showing you green, highlighting through mill valley, and likely all spots in between. more slowing, traffic heads over for highway 37 and also into this area. we now have rain on both sides of the delta for highway 4. a build for the walnut creek and lafayette areas. as that rain comes through, we see the sensors flow. that's great. you go only as fast as conditions allow. we're showing more slowing across the san mateo bridge. as far as i can tell, that is because of the conditions. they are soupy conditions at times. minor crash, over 101, not affecting the span. puddling and ponding, on a crash, north 101, right around oakland road, that could be a complication. look at the conditions in the same area. fremont coming south with the headlights down into the south bay, we are looking again at the blue highlighting a lot of roadways, including highway 17. as you come down across the santa cruz mountains. talking about stronger influence from the storm, and we're

looking at 129 and highway 101. they're all open right now, but those were problem areas along with trees down highway 17 for earlier storms. again, we watch those very closely. back to you. >> thanks, mike. 6:41 right now, a teacher shot by one of her young students, speaks about it publicly for the first time. >> how do you feel? how is your recovery going? >> i have been doing okay, you know, it's been challenging. >> up next, her exclusive interview with savannah guthrie, and her message about america's growing gun violence. new help on the way for bay area farm workers hit by tragedy. the local stars now banding together to give something back to the community. you're watching "today in the bay."

long time. all year, actually. >> that was a deep sigh, a sigh that told me we had 13 atmospheric rivers since january. >> normally five to six. so we are well over where we should be, right? let's talk about where today's atmospheric river. unfortunately for southern california, this is going to be quite problematic. you can see right here making its big impact in through central and southern california, l.a. is under flood watches, flood warnings, they have also dealt with the impacts of a series of atmospheric rivers as well. we're starting to see rain rates pick up. i wanted to zoom this in, using mobile doppler radar, you can see the orange and red over the santa cruz mountains, and so far, the precipitation rate is at a little over an inch. nearly an inch and a half per hour. remember, i talked about how the santa cruz area is where we were going to see the highest rain totals. still looking like that's going to be the case for today. as we head in towards 5:00,

6:00, 7:00, 8:00 a.m., you have seen the progress progression of the storm. expect to see on and off rain all day long into wednesday morning as well. now, the winds are going to be very impactful. wind advisories and warnings go into effect starting at 7:00 a.m., and temperature wise, we're going to be in the 50s. notice here, 54 degrees in san francisco, 55 in san jose, temperature wise we're going to be comfortable. but the wind is going to be upwards of 60 plus for the santa cruz mountain area. so keep this in mind when it comes to power outages, that could also be a possibility. debris flows and downed trees, at this point, any rain could be problematic, especially with the impacts that we've seen along highway 17 specifically. now, adding into wednesday morning, a spotty chance will continue, we do have much better weather into thursday, friday, saturday and sunday, things

clear out quite nicely. this is going to make way for a spring like weekend feel. temperatures will be in the 60s and looking out ahead, this is looking out into next week, monday, tuesday, wednesday, we are monitoring a developing storm potentially near the coast, and that could mean we're going to end march in an active weather pattern. which in the extended outlook, we have seen that as a possibility. it's not out of the realm for us to see the return of rain unfortunately for the last week of march. let's get a look at how the roads are doing with mike. >> looking at the wet roadways with palo alto. shows not a torrential rainfall but steady and wet on the roadways. we're looking at a lot of slowing as you come over to this side with the puddling and ponding for south bay. we're looking at west 92. still slow up to the high-rise.

i thought they had reported a crash to chp in the wrong location. there is a crash there as you approach 101/92. it's the volume of traffic combined with the rain coming down about now. you see that volume building for 880 as well. no problem from the dunbarton bridge if that's your road to the peninsula. puddling and ponding, for vasco road. you're over a half hour. down to 580. it's a smooth drive westbound for your commute or south on vasco for that commute. remember, as barbara delves out the reporting, we have the landslide repair work going on, eastbound 580. that is a problem for the evening commute or your commute, if you head over to the tracy area. over here, the rain continuing to fall in the bay bridge. we're seeing more rain now here, and more cars. that will be a continued factor for the bay area's commute this morning. so far we're doing okay. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. it is 6:52.

happening now, the oakland zoo closing down due to the storm moving through parts of the bay area. the zoo says customers who brought tickets will be refunded in the next three to four weeks. the oakland zoo has shut doors several times due to the wet weather and storm damage, this included a sinkhole that forced the zoo to close. meteorologist vianey arana is timing out the next storm for us this morning, and the damage that could be causing trouble for us. we'll have that and much more right here on "today in the bay."

6:56. this morning, welcome back, we are moving you forward with a look at top stories on "today in the bay." we are in the micro climate weather alert. >> vianey arana will break down

the storm's time line for us. first we want to check with "today in the bay's" kris sanchez, live in san jose with a look at current conditions there. >> hi there, we know the rain is starting to pick up, and we have felt some of the winds coming through, though not nearly as strong as what we're expecting today, based on vianey's forecast. we know this will be an impact on the commute and for the mid part of the day. we know that pg&e is preparing for this storm to bring down power lines as well. we asked them what they did to prepare. they said they'll really focusing on the south bay and also on the peninsula. they are staging equipment in these areas, and they're adding crews as well. in the santa cruz mountains, people are also getting ready for more rain and wind, and a repeat of the power outages that happen to hundreds of thousands of pg&e customers. in los gatos, we are people topping out of propane tanks, making sure generators are ready to go, and clearing debris as

much as they could. some folks are also stocking up on water, and that's because one of the water companies isn't getting enough fuel to keep the water pumps going. so pg&e reminding people to be prepared to have no power for up to five days, which is what happened during the last large wind event. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thank you. meteorologist vianey arana will have a final look at the forecast coming up for us in just a minute. and a reminder for you, if you have any unusual things happening, storm damage in your neighborhood, we want to see it. tag us as you post on facebook, instagram, and twitter, tag us @nbcbayarea. san francisco supervisors will urge lawmakers to legalizing sex work. legalization is an effective way to reduce crime and silence while protecting workers health and safety. urging sacramento leaders to draft a new bill legalizing a
