very important. a lot of people coming and going. >> yeah, it's going to be a nice week. we don't have any issues there. we are also still dealing with gusty winds behind that system that moved through over the weekend, but we don't have any major issues we're tracking as a result. the good thing is that there's no fire danger or anything like that because we did have quite a bit of rain over the weekend. but we are going to be watching for potentially power and tree impacts. overall, the wind is starting to calm down. we are tracking wind gusts in parts of the north bay at about 20 to 30 miles per hour in these areas in purple. that's where the winds are higher. for much of the bay area, winds are at about 10, 15 miles per hour, and calming down as we go throughout the day. as you step out the door, it is chilly. we're at 44 in oakland and 49 in dublin. light winds and the winds will, once again, continue to relax going into this afternoon. mike, you're seeing the bay bridge toll plaza filling up. >> it's filled up.

i thought this week was going to be a lot lighter, and it actually is. but the bay bridge will almost always be busy like this. the last couple of days, this time of morning, we're looking at the approach coming in. there is another issue in oakland. this is at the transition just off of 580 heading onto 980. there was an earlier crash and car fire. the car fire was after the initial crash. we hear there are no major injuries. no slowing there. there is slowing highway 37, highway 4. the rest of the bay moves very smoothly. back to you. >> thank you very much. 6:01. breaking overnight, the chp is looking for two separate drivers involved in a crash which resulted in the death of a passenger who was just looking for help in oakland. >> "today in the bay"'s kris sanchez is joining us from the newsroom to give us details. really a bizarre sequence of events here. >> reporter: good morning, marcus and laura. the person who died was involved in two separate crashes and wasn't even the person behind the wheel. this is what the chp told us. the victim was a passenger in a

zip car that was involved in a crash on state route 13 near lincoln avenue with another driver who fled the scene. the zip car was stalled on the roadway, so the passenger got out to try to flag down help, and then was hit by a different driver. that person died at the scene, and now the chp is looking for the driver who fled the scene. the driver of the zip car was not injured. state route 13 was closed for about two hours for the investigation. it is now open for the morning commute. at this point the chp has not released a description of either of the vehicles involved in this crash. if and when they do, we'll pass it along in case you can help. if you were in the area and you know something, you should call the chp. >> thanks, kris. and we sent you a breaking news alert through our free nbc bay area news app. you can download it if you haven't already done so. that way you'll get updates sent straight to your phone. remembering the life and

legacy of rosalynn carter, the former first lady of the united states, and celebrated writer and activist died yesterday at the age of 96. across the nation, people are reflecting on her impact, and that includes communities she's touched right here in the bay area. "today in the bay"'s brie jackson joins us live in washington this morning. brie, she really helped to bring causes to light for people, and i remember when she would visit us here in the bay area. >> reporter: good morning, laura. rosalynn carter was president jimmy carter's partner, best friend, and closest adviser, in and out of the white house for more than three-quarters of a century. soft spoken, politically savvy and fiercely determined, rosalynn carter was known as the steel magnolia. born eleanor rosalynn carter -- excuse me, born eleanor rosalynn smith in plains, georgia, she married her husband, then a peanut farmer, when she was 18

years old. the small town girl from a poor family thrived on the national stage when carter won the press presidency. she was front and center, testifying before congress and making high-profile trips abroad. carter lost to ronald reagan in 1980 and they devoted themselves to human rights, international diplomacy, eradicating disease and habitat for humanity. that work allowed her to renovate homes in east san jose and build new ones in oakland. among some of the 4,400 she and jimmy carter built throughout her lifetime. the ceo for habitat for humanity east bay silicon valley says she was no stranger to rolling up her sleeves and getting to work. >> she was toe-to-toe with the president, working alongside him, hammering, sawing, using a chop saw.

i don't know how many former first ladies use a chop saw, but mrs. carter did. >> reporter: and a ceremony celebrating the former first lady's life begins next week, a week from today. tributes begin with a wreath laying at georgia southwestern state university. then she will lie in repose at jimmy carter presidential library in atlanta. a week from tomorrow, there will be a carter center departure ceremony and tribute service, and her funeral service will be held on wednesday, november 29th, in plains, georgia. when president carter was asked about his greatest accomplishment, he did not say becoming president, he did not say it was his nobel prize, he said his greatest accomplishment was marrying rosalynn. >> they had quite an amazing love story. thank you very much. that was a nice recap of her life, brie. the "today" show also will take a look back at her life, and the tributes that have been pouring in overnight.

it's all coming up at 7:00 right after "today in the bay." 6:06, and a live look this morning from the southern israel toward the gaza strip. negotiations appear to be closing in on a deal to free hostages being held by hamas fighters. in exchange, israel would agree to a pause in fighting that may continue for several days. the u.s. is taking part in those talks and the white house insists that things are still in the early stages and hopes for a deal may still fall through. but any agreement will likely not deter efforts by u.s. lawmakers to approve new funding for israel and ukraine before christmas. >> the singular best way to protect the people living in the gaza strip is the destruction and annihilation of hamas. >> i would be very loathe to impose conditions that would in effect straightjacket or handcuff the idf in this very, very excruciatingly difficult challenge. >> at this point most believe israel's war on hamas may drag

out for weeks, if not months. but president biden is already among those pushing for a two-state solution. happening today in the north bay, if you see smoke in the skies above al calistoga, it may be due to a proactive burn. cal fire will be burning piles of organic combustible fuel. it starts in napa valley state park and it's scheduled to last through 5:00 p.m. it's part of a larger project to burn more than 200 piles there over the coming weeks. 6:08 this morning. taking a live look at sfo, and a lot of people already traveling for this week, and they're worried about looking at that weather. how is it going to be for our travel? meteorologist kari hall has been tracking that for us. kari, you say it's going to be pretty good across the country. >> yeah, we're just watching a couple of spots. we have a storm pushing off toward the east, so parts of the

midwest and around minneapolis, all the way down to texas may see rough weather. here at home it is cg there's another storm system off the coast. but that one is going to continue to fizzle out. still windy this morning. we're seeing in dublin winds coming out of the east-northeast at about 14 miles per hour. elsewhere it is calming down in a lot ofur valleys. it's a chilly morning, but it will be a mild afternoon. we're headed to the upper 60s today, with san mateo hitting a high of 68 degrees. about the same in oakland, as well as in napa, and slightly warmer through midweek. mike, you have a look at what the gas prices are like. >> quite a sampling. we start in san jose. san jose has the south bay's cheapest, the cheapest on our board, $4.03 at costco. both center road and automation parkway. contra costa county a little higher, brentwood with $4.37 at mobil on brentwood boulevard. and then larkspur at $4.49 at

marin gas on magnolia avenue in the north bay. these reports coming in through gasbuddy.com. the roadways, the altamont pass, we have a good volume. holding steady with highway 4, highway 37. no major issues. we do have more information on this crash, a car fire on 980 just off of 580. we're looking at reports of several small explosions in that car fire. no injuries, it sounds like everybody got out okay. we're still watching this and tracking it to make sure they can get this under control. slowing at the bay bridge toll plaza. the metering lights and toll plaza full. back to you. one thing you can pretty much count on, your thanksgiving dinner will be a little more expensive this year. coming up, we break down the growing costs for turkey and all those fixings. what have you served less? because it may be that some people don't want as much. i'll explain why coming up. shortened workweek on wall street. as you know, stocks have been rallying.

plus, bars across the bay area are being transformed into winter wonderlands. we're going to show you where you can get jolly while sipping you can get jolly while sipping on some holiday look mom, i found one. oh, yeah, you did.

but we need an atm from our bank unless you want to spend a small fortune in fees. uh, no, thank you. banking with us means more fee-free atms than the two largest us banks combined. well, that would be convenient but there is no b-m-o here. ah, you can just call us bee-mo, and there is now. you know what else is convenient? mobile banking that makes it easy

to track your goals and manage your money get out of town. but we... just got here. when a bank helps you get and stay ahead. that's the bmo effect. ♪ bmo ♪ good monday morning to you. the time is 6:13. let's get a look at our day planner for concord. at 9:00, we're still feeling some very chilly air. it's in the mid-50s and mostly

sunny. going into the afternoon, we hit a high of about 65 degrees at 3:00, and then the temperatures start to drop again. we're going to have some breezy winds to start, but calming down. we'll talk about all of this in the microclimate forecast coming up. lots of lights, but they are in motion westbound, taillights away from us into san francisco. there may be some additional slowing as you head through the treasure island tunnel. i'm hearing about a disabled vehicle somewhere through that stretch. i'm watching the sensors and we'll let you know what chp has for the update coming up. good morning. happy monday. it's a shortened workweek for almost every tech company, shortened workweek for wall street as well. still lots to talk about. sam altman is out at openai. we'll talk more about that. a lot more about that at 6:30. disney is one of the companies to announce it is once again pulling advertising from x, the old twitter. comcast, which is the parent company of this tv station, apple, paramount, ibm, they've all joined in. they're not advertising on x.

it comes after elon musk made an anti-semitic post on x and then media watchdog media matters pointed out many advertisers' ads were showing up next to anti-semitic content. musk promising a, quote, thermonuclear lawsuit against media matters. musk said the split second the courts open, x will file that lawsuit. courts in washington, which is home of media matters, are open right now. we have not seen any new filing. local federal courts here in the bay area open at 8:30. now, media matters says musk is a bully who threatens meritless lawsuits in an attempt to silence reporting that even he confirmed is accurate. musk admitted the ads at issue ran alongside the pro-nazi content we identified. if he does sue us, we'll win. musk denying he's an anti-semite, saying bogus media stories claim i'm anti-semitic. nothing could be further from the truth. the head of cruise

automation has resigned. the autonomous cruise company lost its permits to drive on california roads without a driver. cruise is owned by general motors, which says it will get rid of the cruise ceo position altogether. gm had sunk $3 billion into cruise, hoping to develop self-driving cars. ozempic once again poking itself into the news with many thanksgiving hosts and hostesses wondering if maybe they need to make less food now that some of their guests are eating so much less. bloomberg predicting smaller plates at thanksgiving. you remember some of the snack food companies had talked to investors earlier about maybe they're going to have less sales. walmart predicting it's going to have less food sales just based on their own their own pharmacies and they know how many people are taking ozempic, and they think it will reduce the amount of food intake. >> that's amazing. >> that's when your eyes are bigger than your stomach. >> you can still make it work. >> to-go plate, please.

thank you. well, this thanksgiving your turkey might not be the most expensive thing on the table. in fact, it could cost you a little less this year. turkey prices are set to be down by 5% this year according to the american farm bureau federation. last year an avian flu decimated the turkey population. prices for side dishes like pumpkin pie are still driving up the cost of thanksgiving dinner. many say they're trying to use coupons to save. >> it's just crazy today. you've got to use coupons and shop smart. >> here are some other ways to save. be sure to look for store brands, split the dish responsibilities and swap fresh ingredients for frozen ones. nbc bay area and telemundo 48 are teaming up with safeway to make sure everyone in the bay area has a holiday meal. >> we're already kicking off in a big way with our 14th annual nourishing neighbors campaign.

over the weekend laura and i stopped at the rivermark safeway in san jose, having a great time seeing some of our viewers out there who also made donations. kari, mike, bob redell, kris sanchez also helping kick off everything in different stores throughout the bay area. it was a wonderful way to meet a lot of people who stopped by to say hello, but also wanted to donate. and since saturday morning, nearly 291,000 people have helped raise money for families in need in the bay area. if you would like to help, you can do it by visiting any of the safeways here in the bay area. it's really easy to do. donate at the register or checkout, and the campaign runs through christmas day. >> which is a great thing. it's really nice. you're making a difference. that money stays right here in the bay area, local food banks, 11 counties. >> if you're lucky enough, they ring the bell. >> some stores. >> we need to get a bell. sometimes when you walk in, we're all standing there, it's,

like, what's going on? >> why are all these news people here? it was a nice weekend out there. we had a little bit of off and on rain. now that storm system is clearing out, and we're going to have some gusty winds going into the next few days. we want to talk about this trending, a lot of people enjoy the holiday spirits with the help of your holiday makeover for bay area night spots. >> the company miracle transforms local watering holes into pop-up holiday bars. they do it across the country, including right here in the bay area. it provides a little bit of a holiday setting to enjoy your spirits or any other favorite beverages. the pop-ups are coming to seven bay area bars. a list is on your screen. one opens up today in livermore at the fat pigeon, others include napa, petaluma, two in san jose and san francisco. the transformations end in january. some locations require reservations to attend, so make sure that you call ahead. >> what's the fat pigeon?

i guess i'll have to check that out. >> the fat pigeon better watch out because thanksgiving is here. >> the pigeon is not on ozempic. [ laughter ] we're getting ready for thanksgiving week, trying to plan things out. at least the weather will be the least of our worries. it's still windy as that storm system moves out of the bay area by 9:00, we'll see this wind advisory expiring for the hills and mountains. and we had some really high winds for yesterday afternoon into the evening for some of our mountains. a 52-mile-per-hour wind gusts at mount tam and mount st. helena had 47 miles. looking across the country, if you're packing bags and will be leaving the bay area, this is what we're seeing elsewhere, with a lot of showers and thunderstorms from minneapolis down to dallas, and much cooler temperatures. a lot of 40s for highs across

parts of the midwest. and as of now, it looks like everything is on time in terms of our major airports and those flight delays. we're not seeing any delays as of yet. it looks pretty good across the west as well. so hopefully everything is going to be smooth for your holiday travel, and we're just going to see a couple of very spotty showers early on thanksgiving morning, it looks like parts of the north bay may see a little bit of rain. but much of the bay area staying dry as that storm system weakens as it moves into our area. the rest of the forecast is drying out as well. let's get a look at walnut creek. so our temperatures for the first part of the week reach into the mid to upper 60s. it does get slightly warmer ahead of that system on thanksgiving. then we cool back down to mid-60s for the rest of the week. a lot of sunshine icons here. there will be a slight chance of rain late wednesday night into early thursday, and then we see those temperatures coming back to the mid-60s. and, mike, now you have a

bigger backup out of oakland? >> some people might say that's expected as the morning commute goes on. this is tougher than i had anticipated. these lanes really starting to slow down. i think the metering lights may have been slowed down because of the incident we talked about on the bay bridge. it's just past the treasure island tunnel or perhaps in the tunnel. reports are a disabled vehicle, but the driver's side door is open and that is presenting an issue for folks as they pass by. that may be an issue until the bridge crew gets there. it's right there at the tunnel it really starts to slow. we still have a car fire reported on 980. there's now an issue on marsh creek road, some rooks in the roadway. just be careful. >> want to dodge those. next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> a family trip to sail the south pacific is all set, until their airline changes its mind. their airline changes its mind. i'm consumer investigator chris

[deep breath] nbc bay area responds to a peninsula family whose flight plans cost a couple thousand dollars more than they expected. >> we found an important lesson for all holiday travelers. here is consumer investigator chris chmura. >> good monday morning. whenever you're flying, check your itinerary early and often for changes. airlines modify their schedules regularly, changing flight times, dates, and even airports.

that's what the australian airline quantas did to bob in fairmont. he booked his family to fly to sydney for a cruise, five months beforehand, a big change. >> so they were going to fly out of los angeles instead and the email said that they would use a partner airline to provide transportation. >> transportation to l.a. to catch that new flight. but that didn't happen. so last minute, bob spent $2,000 in airline miles to catch a flight from l.a.x. bob asked for reimbursement. qantas declined. he asked us for our help. we contacted them and they said the agent made a rebooking error and sent bob $2,000. check your flights after you book, see what's changed and take action. if your vacation plans get turbulent, contact us. snap the qr code to fill out our consumer complaint form online. we've whipped up for tips or holiday travelers, including

your ticket to beat delays and track lost luggage. we'll share our secrets tonight at 5:30. see you then. >> thanks, chris. coming up next, the top stories we're following for you today, including under surveillance. the east bay police department is looking to get more cameras to crack down on crime. and the key vote today that could expand the program. and good morning. i'm bob redell. we're live at oakland international for the start of this year's thanksgiving holiday travel week. the highest number of air travelers expected in almost two

right now at 6:30, a deadly turn, after a car share gets caught in a highway hit-and-run. new details this morning from investigators at the scene, and the ongoing search for two cars. plus, hundreds of employees threaten to leave the nation's top ai company after their ceo is suddenly fired. the holiday travel rush takes off. here is a live look at sfo now bracing for waves of people to pass through ahead of thanksgiving. we're live with what you need to know if you're planning to take to the skies or hit the road. this is "today in the bay." good monday morning to you. thanks for joining us. i'm laura garcia.

>> i'm marcus washington. let's get a look at that forecast today. anyone out there looking to travel, kari hall has you covered. how sit looking? >> it looks good. it's still pretty windy after the system we had move through over the weekend. it brought us rain and gusty winds yesterday afternoon. but we're going to start to see the wind calming down over the next few hours. this wind advisory for our hills and mountains in effect until 9:00, and we're still looking at some breezy winds in parts of the north bay and the tri-valley. winds are up to about 25 to 30 miles per hour. then you can see at 9:00 the winds start to relax a little bit, still going to be breezy today. but just not nearly as windy as we saw yesterday evening. and now looking, as you step out the door across the bay area, our temperatures are anywhere from 44 in oakland to 54 in san francisco, and we'll see our highs headed for the mid to upper 60s for today. so we'll talk more about that coming up. mike, you were checking in on the bay bridge.

>> actually watching, kari, the taillights go up and around. they're moving steadily. on the left side of the screen, into san francisco, it looks like a smooth drive through treasure island. the sensors do indicate a little extra slowing as you approach on the incline. it looks like chp did get that cleared as far as the incident goes and they were sending a unit to treasure island. i believe the disabled vehicle has cleared. we should see recovery. lighter traffic. nothing major right now out of the contra costa county area. a little build 660, 880, and 101 does show some slowing. happening now, millions of americans are hitting the roads and taking to the skies for the thanksgiving holiday. "today in the bay"'s bob redell is joining us live from oakland international airport. airports say this thanksgiving holiday is probably going to be the busiest they've seen in two decades? >> reporter: correct. good morning to you, marcus.

aaa says that they predict that people will be traveling just over 50 million americans, there will be over 50 million of them this week for thanksgiving. that's an increase of just 2% over the last year. but to get to what you were just alluding to when it comes to air travel, like people leaving oakland international behind me, aaa predicts that 4.7 million americans will fly. that's a 6.6% increase over last year. that is the highest number of air travelers during thanksgiving since 2005. so almost 20 years ago. you can credit cheaper airfares and fewer covid concerns according to experts. this is video of oakland international yesterday, which you can see was a little bit busy, but not the busiest expected this week. and then, also, we've been at sfo this morning, today being monday. it is also not the busiest day for air travelers. aaa says tomorrow and wednesday are when most people will fly.

those are the most expensive when it comes to airfares, and obviously the most crowded. >> i'm a little stressed out because there's a lot of people here and i'm a nervous flyer, anyway. >> we heard that there would be significant delays, but it looks pretty smooth. southwest always keeps us well taken care of for our travels. >> reporter: speaking of southwest, you might recall last year around christmas, southwest airlines experienced a major meltdown because of technical problems and bad winter weather. the airline had to cancel over 16,000 flights. southwest tells npr it has readied for this year's holiday rush by investing in new equipment and upgrading technologies. back out here live at oakland international, you can see the line, or i should say lack of line for tsa, security here at one of the terminals at oakland international. an hour ago the line was stretched way out here. that was probably part of the

morning rush. things do appear to be moving very smoothly here. on the departure and arrival board, you don't see a lot of yellows and reds, which would be delays and cancellations, definitely not on the departure side. just a few delays coming in. this is good news for people trying to get in and out of oakland international this morning. reporting live in oakland, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> folks planning to travel this week are hoping, please let it be that way when i travel. thanks, bob. be sure to tune in tonight at 5:30, our consumer investigator chris chmura has pro trips for holiday travelers, including your ticket to beating delays and tracking lost luggage. we are following breaking news in the east bay, back-to-back hit-and-runs that left one person dead. it started when a zip car was disabled following a late-night crash on highway 13 in oakland near lincoln avenue. the chp says the other car took off. soon after, a passenger got out

of the zip car, only to be struck and killed by a separate car. that driver also took off. the incident closed all lanes for more than an hour. anyone who may have witnessed something is asked to contact the chp. jury deliberations continue today for a bay area man accused in the grisly murder of his ex-girlfriend, the mother of his young daughter. prosecutors argued landaeta used a samurai sword to kill his 27-year-old castro outside her home in september of 2022. during testimony, prosecutors laid out a tense relationship between the pair, including numerous threats of violence. they also presented graphic photos of the murder scene. landaeta and his attorney argued the killing was self-defense and he's a paranoid schizophrenic. pittsburg city council will decide whether or not to move forward with adding more security cameras around the city. city council members will vote on a grant worth more than $37,000, which will go towards

purchasing new cameras. the pittsburg police department says that the existing cameras have been helpful in deterring crime. city council meeting starts tonight at 7:00. the nation's leading ai company went through a crazy string of events over the weekend, firing their ceo, replacing another, and now new this morning, hundreds upon hundreds of openai employees are threatening to walk out. >> nearly 500 of them, just amazing. all shocked, upset, surprised. the ceo sam altman of openai was fired on friday. nobody saw this coming. here is altman speaking on behalf of the company at the apec conference just a few days ago. openai's board dismissed altman, though at first it would not give any details, only that he had lost the trust of the board. now, later the company would make it clear it's not for anything like office misbehavior, fiscal mismanagement, but still a huge surprise. and now as you say, you've got all these top ai researchers threatening to leave the

company. the creator of chatgpt. the takeaway is what a circus this turned into. >> and quickly. >> i have a timeline. based on our reporting, the reporting of "the new york times," friday they fire him, it appoints murati as interim ceo. then they seem to reverse themselves, asking altman to come back. then they appoint emmett shear instead. then altman was hired by microsoft instead. >> that shocked look on his face is rather fitting. microsoft, it's interesting, they didn't have any say at all in his dismissal, despite this company has invested $13 billion. >> they didn't have a board seat, even though that investment, which itself is crazy, and i'm sure at microsoft they're trying to figure out how they dropped the ball on that one. it's a tiny board, just four people. >> which is amazing. i can't believe that. then you were saying earlier the

head of cruise automation also out. >> very different story over the weekend, kyle vogt stepped down voluntarily. altman was fired. cruise technology essentially doesn't work the way they want it to. general motors responded by just getting rid of the ceo position altogether, openai, as i was saying, appointed not one, but two ceos in two days. >> what happens next? does altman return to ai? >> i suspect so. there are so many employees saying they're ready to leave. altman is more than qualified to take the position. >> what if he says no? >> that will be interesting. the thing, again, this is microsoft. microsoft will be okay pushing him back to openai. remember, they partially -- they own openai and i kind of expect microsoft immediately hired him in order to hold onto him, so they could bring him back to openai. >> it's all still playing out, and a lot of comments this morning. >> for sure.

>> thank you very much. taking a live look at downtown san jose this morning, this is where the holiday spirit is coming alive, because tonight marks the official opening of downtown ice on south market street. this is after the soft opening last friday. this is not video from last year. last year it was a roller skating rink. the ice has returned, and mike inouye is hosting tonight's ceremony at 5:30 tonight. for tickets, visit sjdowntownice.com. it's located between the museum of art and the signia hilton hotel, formerly fairmont. >> that will be fun to head out there. >> we'll have friends there also from telemundo.

[ laughter ] >> they have a new company doing it this year. it's a challenge. >> it really is. >> absolutely. >> mike will be practicing his triple-doubles. >> absolutely. >> we'll see his skills out there. we're going to have some cool weather out there, so, mike, maybe a heavier jacket. even though it's going to be sunny, our temperatures will be dropping quickly. we're going from our start in the morning in the low 50s to seeing our noontime temperatures at 63 degrees, upper 60s, and then as quickly as those temperatures warmed up, it's going to be headed back down. so we are going to have some mild temperatures today. in dublin reaching 64 degrees. we've been talking about how windy it was yesterday evening once that storm system moved out. we are still breezy this morning, but we are gradually going to see winds calming down. tomorrow a little warmer as we take a look at our highs headed for the mid-70s in los gatos, concord reaching 68 degrees,

also 68 tomorrow in novato. we'll be talking more about that. mike, you were saying that as of now it seems pretty smooth. >> yeah, the bay bridge itself, the toll plaza is starting to move better now. and we do see those speed sensors improving across the span. i believe they did clear that disabled vehicle. we're able to see some recovery because it is a lighter volume overall. earlier this morning it looked heavy. this week we're talking about a lighter flow of traffic. we have slowing in the tri-valley and toward the san mateo bridge. 880 slows toward the dumbarton bridge and across 92. westbound, a lot more slowing over the last ten minutes. still moving through the peninsula, which is clear right now. alameda county and contra costa county, vasco road is 27 minutes. just under a half hour. in san jose, a little build here.

>> gracias. new short-term housing options heading to the south bay. ahead on "today in the bay," the new project organizers promise will set itself apart from other shelters. and how would you like to own an island in the middle of san francisco bay? up next, the price tag on this remote red rock. maybe you'll invite us over for dinner. you're watching "today in e bay." th

good monday morning to you. as we take a look at our planner for gilroy, we're starting out in the low 40s this morning. it's a chilly start. but with the sunshine, it's going to be a mild day. making it into the mid-60s, but then cooling down quickly for the evening. we'll see more days like this. we'll talk about any changes in our thanksgiving microclimate forecast coming up. and we're looking at the golden gate bridge, the volume builds a bit coming out of the north bay. on the north side of the bridge, the rest stop has cleared. all security zones have cleared safely and there's better movement, also lighter traffic overall. we'll show you where there are slow spots. >> thank you so much. 6:46 right now. more housing help is coming for those who need it most in the south bay. last month, leaders approved a transitional housing development on a small lot near san ignacio. the developer is donating the site to the city for $1 a year

over the next five years. the nonprofit dignity moves will initially construct 75 sleeping units on the site at a cost of about $50,000 per unit. organizers say the new community will provide shared laundry machines and kitchen areas and provide a more stable alternative than shelters with large rooms and bunk beds. >> interim supportive housing is a place where people can come for six months to maybe as long as two years where they can get stabilized and assess what their long-term plans are going to be. so it's not a permanent solution, it's an interim place where people can be, instead of being on the streets, and get stabilized hopefully, rather than the permanent supportive housing, which is in short supply and expensive to build. >> work on the development is expected to wrap in about half a year, even with donations from the developer and nonprofit, the project will cost the city around $11 million.

6:37 right now. today is president biden's birthday. >> and scott mcgrew he'll be celebrating, but for his critics it's time to point out his age again. >> he's 81, the oldest president of the united states. to be fair, he was the oldest president yesterday, too, when he was 80. the president's public schedule shows he has a turkey pardon today on his birthday. the turkeys are named liberty and bell. earlier this weekend, the president and first lady and some turkeys who were not so lucky got together for dinner in norfolk with members of the u.s. military. nbc news polling shows former president trump ahead of biden in a nationwide survey, right here within the margin of error, these two numbers. but worrisome for the biden campaign. when we show these nationwide polls, i remind all of us, this is not how we elect a president. it's not a popularity contest.

maybe more worrisome for mr. biden is this other number, an approval rating for people under 34 years old. this is low. many young people upset over the president's strong support of israel. young people telling pollsters they want the white house to be more even-handed in the conflict. the white house has been calling for pauses in the fight between israel and the hamas terrorists to protect the palestinians that everyone is very much worried about. now, it's not as if those voters will turn to trump over that issue. trump equally supportive of israel. i'm sure he would say the most supportive of israel. where the two candidates mostly disagree as far as funding and military is ukraine. brand new pictures into our newsroom of the secretary of state lloyd austin meeting with president zelenskyy in kyiv. president biden pushing congress for more funding to defend ukraine, trump has called for a pause in funding. he says he would solve the war

within the first 24 hours of being president. it sounds as if the deal to release some of the hostages snatched by hamas terrorists is close, and some of those hostages are americans. senator richard blumenthal speaking on our "meet the press" saying as much as he could. >> what gives you confidence that americans are likely involved? >> i have a high degree of confidence that americans will be involved. there are nine of them, and a green card holder, perhaps more. but americans' involvement will be an imperative, i think for the president, rightly so. >> and of course everyone in washington and america are saying good-bye to rosalynn carter, who passed away over the weekend. i had the pleasure of meeting her at her church in plains. she was 96 when she died. we'll have much more ahead on the "today" show, and then the funeral, marcus and laura, will be a week from wednesday. >> thank you very much, scott. 6:50 right now. trending this morning, if you're

still trying to figure out what kind of holiday gift to get the person who has everything, here is an idea. maybe their own island. >> i think it's a great deal. so red rock island is located in san francisco bay just south of the richmond-san rafael bridge. the listing agent tells the "chronicle," there's no wi-fi, no parking, and it's only accessible by boat. but you don't have neighbors, if that's your thing. and it's expected to hit the market this week at the cost of $25 million. viewing is by appointment only. >> you've got to take a boat out there. >> i have stayed at apartments that had no wi-fi. >> just go back to the '80s, right? >> something for everyone. >> meet the flintstones. it's windy across the bay area, and we're going to see the winds calming down. the wind advisory will expire in

a few hours, but it's mainly for the hills and mountains. some of those gusts reaching up to 45 miles per hour. that's after the storm system we had over the weekend has now moved off to the east. we have high pressure moving in, and there's another storm system out in the pacific. so the pressure gradient, all of the high and low pressure so close together is making that air flow very quickly across the bay area. but here is a look at some of our top wind gusts for some of our mountains. we saw mount st. helen reaching 47 yesterday evening, up to 52 at mount tam. once the wind calms down, the sunshine continues, and we're going to see highs reaching into the mid to upper 60s today, a little warmer tomorrow with highs in the low 70s and mid to upper 70s for morgan hill down to san martin. we're also going to see more mild weather continue into our thanksgiving holiday. just watching out for a quick pass of north bay showers early

thursday morning. we go back to some dry conditions the rest of the week, and our temperatures will be slightly cooler after thanksgiving, but we're not seeing any rain chances in our extended forecast beyond the slight chance we'll see between late wednesday night into early thursday. it looks good for the next several days. mike, you continue to see improvement on the bay bridge. >> moving much more quickly now that the disabled vehicle cleared across the span. holding steady on the eastshore freeway. no major backups outside of your typical commute spots. a build for 101, 87 and 105, and slow across the san mateo bridge. but overall lighter. back to you. >> thank you very much. 6:53. teams are searching for a missing northern california hiker, a 66-year-old, a michigan-based travel nurse last seen eight days ago in calaveras county. they disappeared along the popular arnold rim trail. searchers have been looking for

her since last weekend after her car was found parked at a trailhead. a quick look at our top stories this morning, including that breaking news out of the east bay. a late-night car share drive turns deadly on an east bay freeway. the investigation under way into the tragic hit-and-run and the search this morning for not one, but two drivers. plus, the holiday travel rush takes off. what you need to know whether you're planning to take to the skies or hit the road.

welcome back. we are moving you forward with a look at this morning's top stories, starting with that breaking news out of the east bay. >> back-to-back hit-and-runs that left one person dead. it started when a zip car was

disabled following a late-night crash on highway 13 in oakland near lincoln avenue. the chp says the other car took off. soon after, a passenger got out of the zip car, only to be struck and killed by a separate vehicle. that driver also took off. anyone with information is asked to contact chp. meanwhile, workers at openai, the maker of chatgpt, are threatening a mass resignation in the wake of the recent dismissal of the company's ceo. board members fired sam altman friday saying that he had lost their trust. other members of altman's team say this morning they're announcing that microsoft is hiring him to lead their new ai team. since friday, openai a pointed one interim ceo, then another, then at one point announced that it wanted altman back. close to 500 workers are signed a letter calling for altman's return. here is a live look at sfo

and oakland airport, each bracing for a surge in travelers. aaa forecasts close to 5 million people will fly, nearly a 7% increase over last year. the surge is being tied to lower airfares and fewer covid concerns. experts say the busiest travels days will be tomorrow and wednesday. wednesday will also be the worst day for road travel. be sure to tune in tonight at 5:30 on nbc bay area. consumer investigator chris chmura has pro tips for holiday travelers, including your ticket to beating delays and tracking lost luggage. >> speaking of travel, people are hoping for clear skies. it looks great this week. we're just waiting for the wind to calm down this morning. after that, we're in for sunshine, only a slight chance of rain between wednesday night and early thanksgiving morning. the san mateo bridge, the arrows point to flashing lights. someone is delayed. we're looking at long-term lighter traffic flow for the morning commute, but watch the
