progress reports. lead can damage the brain and inner sus systems. hamas is calling for global protests this weekend. hamas is also claiming responsibility for a shooting in jerusalem that killed three people at a bus stop. the latest group of freed hostages arrived at a hospital overnight, and as part of the latest exchange, more palestinian prisoners are expected to be released today. new video shows a bus of recently released prisoners arriving in the west bank. all the efforts come and here's

more on how the white house is reacting to the latest pause in fighting. >> the biden administration says the cease-fires are delivering meaningful results, including the release of nearly 100 hostages, and the delivery of much-needed humanitarian aid to civilians in gaza. the truce between israel and hamas extended for a second time, allowing more time to free more hostages. secretary of state antony blinken met with israeli president in israel today. >> from day one we have been focused relentlessly on trying to secure the release of hostages from gaza, from hamas. >> the renewed cease-fire follows wednesday's release of hostages, including just the second u.s. citizen to be freed. >> i talked with their mother and father and they are very appreciative, and things are moving well. she will soon be home with her

three children. >> back here in the u.s., there has been a rise in crimes aimed at jewish community. chuck schumer sending a strong message about the violence. >> all of us must condemn anti-semitism with full-throated clarity wherever we see it before it metastasizes into something worse. >> what happened on october 7th is an atrocity, but we ask israel and any military action be sensitive to the collateral damage of innocent individuals. >> israel and hamas both say they are ready to resume fighting when the pause ends. families of those still in captivity fear time is running out. officials say approximately 145 people remain in captivity held by hamas. >> just like you say, for those

families, time is running out. thank you for the latest, brie. there are new concerns for an east bay refinery, and this time it's the martinez refinery that experienced a new flare-up last night. today in the bay's bob redell is live outside the martinez refinery. it has been a rough week for the residents in the surrounding areas. talk to us about what happened with the latest flaring. >> reporter: good morning, marcus. yesterday the martinez refinery behind me had a flare-up, which means it burned off gases into the air, which was visible to people that live around here. the refinery posted this to its website, all appropriate agencies have been notified and we apologize for any inconvenience to our neighbors, and flares are a safety system designed to safely manage excess

combustible gases by burning them off efficiently. the flare-up appeared kau lawsuit against the refinery demands monitoring of the site. >> we don't know exactly what is going on, but a big part of the lawsuit is we need something to change. we want people to know in real time with a lot more information about what exactly is happening, what kind of chemicals are being released and all that kind of thing, because right now we are left in the dark and at the mercy of the refinery company to decide what and when they will release information. >> the refinery tells us they do

not comment on pending litigation. this past month there was another flare-up that sent black smoke in the air. chevron was asked to file a 72-hour report, which would be due today, and chevron said monday's flare-up was a result of a power outage at its plant. the bay area air quality management district said they have been monitoring this. the county did not issue a warning. an investigation is under way after an east bay wig shop was hit by thieves again. the owner of valley rags and wigs in dublin sells high-end wigs mostly to cancer patients.

we will talk about where we will see rain, coming up. mike is tracking gas prices still heading down. >> we have san josé back in the lead. 3.95 on quick serve, and then the jump up to the north bay jumps you up to 4.39, and that's on magnolia avenue, and that's also the cash price. on the roadway, not a lot of sharing going on, because there are fewer cars out there. slowing out of the altamont. vasco slows quite a bit was come down towards 580. despite the slowing, still, we are under half an hour from the drive on marsh creek. 580 itself, we are down to a 24-minute drive, and that's lower than half an hour ago. the traffic is flowing smoothly

through that area. 6:11 right now. major changes for ferry commuters. ahead on "today in the bay," how soon we can expect a zero emissions fleet. elon musk stunning an audience, really the whole business world with something he said. we will tell you what he said -- most of it, anyway. out to the futures this morning. a big rally this month. the best of the year, and we just keep on going. if 2023 was not your year, just say -- if you are saying, what did he just say? stick around. we will talk about the top slang terms the teens use, and i

another one in the books. but we're just getting started. everything going well? oh yeah. let's take a look at this knee. because it's the work behind the scenes, that truly matters.

paper tickets today. use that clipper card, that's the bay area's transit card. and there's a bus all week because they are doing the electra faction project. the stock market continues to rally. we are shaping up for the best month so far this year. we get key inflation numbers today, and those have been good in the past. general motors say it will reduce spending on san francisco based cruise by hundreds of millions of dollars, and they are buying back stock. the main business story of the day or the week or the month is this. >> don't advertise. >> you don't want them to advertise? >> no.

>> what do you mean? >> is somebody going to try and blackmail me with advertising, with money, go [ bleep ] yourself. >> but -- >> go [ bleep ] yourself. >> that's elon musk at the "new york times" deal book summit, talking about advertisers leaving x, the old twitter, stunning cnbc host andrew ross sorkin and the entire business world. musk said it twice, coca-cola, comcast, the parent company of this tv station, apple, all kinds of companies suspended advertising on x after elon musk who owns x posted an anti-semitic message, and now elon musk says it's the foolest thing he probably has done. elon musk said x may not survive

much longer, and the news was supposed to be that the cyber truck would be released today. musk called it the most important product release of the year, and tesla has more than 1 million preorders on the car. and musk still runs x despite bringing in an ceo from nbc. after dealing with a boss that posts support for an anti-semitic message, and then publicly and profanely curses the advertisers, and she still supports musk. the concern, i think, you are not seeing behind the scenes is x owes millions and hundreds of

millions to the banks, and there's less money coming in. those bankers, when they saw that, hey, our main source of income, that word twice, man, killing it. >> and not in a good way. >> thanks, scott. happening today, the federal fran seut administration is expected to make a big announcement about funding to enhance transit services around the bay area. already in the works for a ferry system is a zero emissions fleet. we know the first electric-powered boat is set to sail in 2025. the authority is shifting half of the fleet to zero emissions by 2035. that will be nice to see. >> yeah. if you know you know, parents with teenagers may hear all sorts of slang. >> yeah, the online learning language platform released a

survey of the most commonly slang terms that parents of teenagers are familiar with. the first on the top of the list is sus, and that means somebody or something is questionable or suspicious. and bet means i agree, and yeet is you deem to be worthiless. you know what? more than half of the parents say they try to stay up on the slang to communicate with their teenagers, and using google. sus and bet, i was using those 20 years ago. >> yeah, same for me. and we use it in the same concept. >> i never heard of yeet.

>> i am thinking it as in a song, and that's a whole other thing. >> i might have to check out that dictionary. >> i like it because my teenagers still talk to me and tell me what it means. >> they still speak in english. >> i asked my son, how would you use these in a sentence? i felt so old at this point. if i were to use this in a ste, -- in a sentence, how would i use it? let's get out the door to school and work, and temperatures in the low 40s in some spots. mostly upper 40s as you move across parts of the south bay. san francisco starts out the morning at 51 degrees. we are now feeling temperatures there, but we are headed for the low 60s for this afternoon. these are the same highs we have had all week long, so it's still

jacket weather throughout the day. as of now, we don't need the umbrellas but we are tracking rain further to the north, and we will move into parts of the north bay later today. we may slide down the pennsylvania, but this afternoon we are watching out for the hit or miss showers. hit or miss will be the key words here, because not all of us will see the rain and definitely not at the same time. the systems moving through are weak and will continue to weaken as they move in. into the weekend, if you have outdoor plans, it's looking good but there could be rain passing by. i wouldn't cancel any outdoor plans. next week we will watch out for this storm system to the north of us starting to drop into the bay area, and that's beyond our 7-day forecast. so inland, temperatures in the low 60s. we have a backup over here at the richmond bridge. we are down three lanes because of the earlier damage we had

months ago. we are looking at a slower drive building out of contra costa county. and into berkeley and across the bridge, and highway 37 and 4, there's no surprises. back to you. >> thanks, mike. next on "today in the bay," "nbc bay area responds." >> an airline sitting on 8 grand. would you just let them keep that cash? neither would our viewer, so she asked us for help. asked us for help. i am consumer [narrator] covered california is a free service

next six weeks or forfeit her $8,000 ticket, and susan felt pressured and asked for an extension, and that did not happen. she contacted us. after we spoke to them, they gave susan vouchers for $8,753 bucks and a lengthy extension. i am ginger conejero saab. bay area groups continue to call for the release of all israeli hostages as the seventh day of the temporary truce between israel and hamas is set to expire. we will have more on that and

we will tell you what to watch for. this is "today in the bay." it's thursday morning. 6:30. thanks for starting your day with us. i am laura garcia. i am marcus washington. first, making sure your holiday season is signed, sealed, and most importantly delivered. we will take you live behind the scenes. we are looking at the bay area's newest mail processing facility, and we can tell you how to insure your packages get delivered on time. >> i am surprised did you didn't sing that, ♪ ♪ signed, sealed delivered -- >> ♪ ♪ i'm yours. we were in the 20s and low 30s for monday and tuesday, and now in morgan hill we will start out with temperatures in the 40s at 8:00. we will also see a mix of sun

and clouds, and temperatures there only reach the low 60s for today. then there may be spotty showers go into the afternoon. we're not going to see anymore widespread rain, but at times there will be wet weather moving through. we will talk about the weekend forecast coming up in a few minutes. >> thank you, kari. developing now, the extended truce between israel and hamas will expire at the end of the day, and it comes as hamas is issuing a new call for global protests this weekend. >> hamas is calling -- actually, they are claiming responsibility for a new attack at a jerusalem bus stop that killed three people. eight more are injured here. in the meantime, more hostages being released, among them a woman with ties to the bay area. >> and ginger conejero saab

joins us live in san francisco this morning. ginger, while this woman's family may be thrilled, others are still on edge. >> reporter: you can imagine, marcus and laura, the release of every hostage celebrated, but here in the bay area and around the world, jewish communities waiting for all the hostages to be released. >> the emotional trauma that is being inflicted not only on these families but the entire jewish people is ongoing, and in some ways made worse by the constant question, will some come out today? >> reporter: that question still being asked by the family of 36-year-old american ramon keirsh. her family is still waiting for her husband who remains in

captivity. this morning another american is free, a mother of three, who has been released while her husband, as well, remains a hostage. here in the bay area, seven sonoma synagogues and close to 200 people came together for a prayer vigil in the north bay, over in santa rosa. they are calling for every hostage to be freed. there are more than 150 hostages still left in captivity, including nine children and eight americans. overnight, 21 aid trucks arrived in gaza and in northern israel -- parts of the northern strip. those aid trucks had food, baby formula and water and other essentials. the u.n. secretary general saying that gaza is in need of immediate and sustained humanitarian aid. marcus and laura? >> it never gets easy hearing what is happening there. ginger, thank you.

it's 6:34 right now. governor gavin newsom will debate the florida governor, ron desantis, tonight on fox news. >> you probably are asking, what is at stake here? that's not entirely clear. scott? >> well, pride is at stake. newsom is not running for anything at all. maybe this could be a preview five years from now, newsom versus desantis. there's a possibility biden changes his mind about this election and newsom steps in, but that's unlikely. what you got tonight is mostly spectacle. >> i want to get this right. you called him a small and

pathetic man and asked, quote, kidnapping charges? is that what you believe happened, governor newsom, florida kidnapped migrants and brought them to california. >> i think i am being generous, small and pathetic. very generous. he's just weakness mass kau rating strength. >> one of desantis' biggest advantage, he doesn't have to defend anybody but himself, and he can deflect any criticism of trump because he's running against him in the primary. the polling numbers show the more voters get to know him the less they like him. his position on abortion is a counter to a number of americans, and newsom has been

attacking him on that. here's an ad running in florida by newsom. >> even though many women don't even know they are pregnant at six weeks. that's not freedom. that's ron desantis' florida. >> desantis has one other weakness, he has a lot to lose because he has a lot to gain. he is running for president and needs to pull supports from trump supporters and nikki haley supporters. they will be watching tonight. gavin newsom, in the meantime, has nothing to lose. he's not running for anything. his position on abortion matches the majority of american voters. his disadvantage, when desantis brings up biden in the debate, newsom will have to defend him. and then there are images seen around the world in california, what it looks like in the malls and union square, and major retailers moving out. these are the images many in the

world think of when they think of california and they will be tough to defend. the debate is 90 minutes, and laura, it will be on fox news and starts at 6:00. >> i am sure we will still be talking about it. thanks. the city of antioch trying to move forward after being rocked by allegations of the police department. there's a healing vigil at the antioch community center. school leaders from around the state gathering today in san francisco for one of america's largest educational conferences. the california school board's education conference and trade show welcomes some 4,000 participants. it includes more than 100 workshops focusing on developing new methods to strengthen public schools, and that includes providing equal access to high quality education, student safety and mental health and

community engagement. it kicks off at 9:00 this morning and will run through the end of the weekend at the moscone center. let's look outside on this thursday morning. the sun is up and lights are on at christmas in the park. there's a chance of spotty showers today and through the weekend as well, kari. will everybody see the sprinkles? >> it's a hit or miss, and the north bay has the best chance of seeing that rain. this evening our temperatures will be in the mid-50s. make sure you are wearing the layers, because it will be chilly no matter where you are. it will be chilly in the chase center, and we will see temperatures in the low to mid-50s, but it will be windy throughout the evening. looking at let's glow sf, and the light show begins this weekend starting tomorrow at 7:00. it will be at 55 degrees. throughout the weekend we will see more of the same temperatures in the evening.

for sonoma valley, this is where we could see a higher chance of rain, but it states mostly cloudy and the rain will be very light. temperatures reach into the low 60s with our overnight temperatures in the low to mid-40s. mike, you are seeing more of a commute coming out of coco county? >> yeah, look at the walnut creek camera, and southbound 680 towards 24, there's slowing right here at the camera -- slowing right here -- there we go. just a little bit coming off of 242, and no real changes in the distribution. no changes in the sensors. a little more orange shows up on the maps. looking ahead, kari told us us about the warriors came, so keep that in mind. folks head into the city, perhaps, for more activities, and the warriors game tonight, so keep that in mind for the extension as well. and there's a concert at 8:00

p.m. over here, and there could be additional traffic on the nimitz, so watch for that. everything moving smoothly on the nimitz right now. there's a new crash on 680. we will check that out coming up. back to you. >> thanks, mike. using artificial intelligence to save lives, and in this case it's from the coastal threat swimmers may not even realize. still ahead, the new effort to zero in on a danger lurking just beneath the waves. we are at one of the busiest places approaching the holidays. this is the new sorting and delivery center in palo alto that can process up to 10,000 letters and packages through the holiday every single day. i will show you what this means, not just for your holiday packages but for the future of the u.s. postal service. you're watching "today in the bay."

good thursday morning to you. it's 6:43. now we are getting a live look outside in dublin. we are starting out mostly clear. it's another chilly morning. at 8:00 we are at 46 degrees and mostly sunny, but we will see a few clouds coming in today as our high hits 60 degrees. we will talk about where we could see rain in our microclimate forecast, coming up. the shot looks similar, but it's 880 in fremont. caltrans for the next three

weeks could be doing work overnight for a lane or two, and they have to repair a lot of potholes. we have a trash on 680, and we will talk about that, coming up. researchers at uc santa cruz are working on using artificial intelligence to save more lives. the hope is it could lead to a new warning system for potential riptides, which now are hard to detect. eventually researchers are hoping to develop an app for beachgoers >> i am interested in science that has real-life implications, and we need to make it better and more user friendly. >> researchers also hope the system can eventually benefit

other aspects of coastal life, including erosion and rising sea levels. one professor leading the effort said he's inspired with the memory of two ucsf students that died from rip currents back in 2015. and then on a rush to deliver this holiday season, and we know everybody wants those packages to arrive to their destination on-time. the u.s. postal service is getting ready, not just for the holiday season but are modernizing for the future. >> kris sanchez is inside the brand-new sorting center in palo alto. it's one of the first of its kind in the nation, i understand? >> reporter: there are only 40 in the nation like this sorting and delivery center. palo alto is one of the first to get one, and another one is in southern california. this can process 5,000 parcels and letters in the day, and

during the holiday season they are bumping up the season to 10,000. usps hired 10,000 new people to work through the holidays, and they have added 348 new package sorting machines and increased the capacity to 70 million packages, letters, christmas cards, all of that. we have the postmaster here at the palo alto center. this is quite an improvement from what we have seen in the past? >> yeah, we had to update our facility with the machines, and now we have better efficient to serve our customers. >> reporter: they had a bad rap a couple years ago. >> i can't comment on that, but we have better customer service

overall. >> reporter: it paused. >> yeah, it got jammed. >> reporter: where is this going? >> we cover 55,000 customers in this facility alone, so it's from here to the palo alto area. >> reporter: you do get a lot of packages, and i would imagine more than ever? >> right now we have a abnormal volume because the holidays are coming, and right now we are more efficient than before so we are able to process much faster. >> reporter: this is part of getting the usps not just ready for the holidays but for the future. >> yes, the future of the post

office. >> reporter: you could see amazon and ups and fedex and all the private guys, but you duh deliver more than anybody? >> that is true. >> reporter: i did ask if there was a cyber holiday deal, buy one, get one stamp, and he says no. >> we wish we had that. >> reporter: i tried, guys. i tried. shipping deadlines are coming up fast? >> if you use priority, december 20th, you can get it before christmas. >> reporter: don't wait until december 20th. >> yeah, don't wait. make sure you put the correct address and zip code. >> reporter: no calligraphy. keep it simple.

>> thanks, kris. simple, indeed. >> yeah, santa has to know where it's going, too. and then a writing contest is calling for kids to imagine their own nuclear power space mission. students as young as five years old are invited to dream up a totally new space mission to explore a place with limited to no light. yeah, one nasa spokesperson explains you can dream far into the galaxies but you have to use 250 words or less. >> i think it's exciting for students of all ages to look at where we live in the solar system, and understand more about earth. >> a winner in every grade category will win a trip to nasa's glenn research facility in cleveland, ohio. this is where they will get to see the people and technologies that power nasa missions.

submissions are due by january 26th. so put a stamp on them and mail them out. >> there you go. thursday morning, and we're through the rain for at least today? >> yeah, the rain is light and spotty and will not affect us through the next couple of days. low to mid-60s for today. gilroy heading for 64 degrees. 61 in cupertino. much of the east bay will be in the low 60s. no major changes, and san mateo reaching 64 degrees. a high of 62 in the mission district, and low 60s for much of the north bay. we talk a lot about rain because it has been in the forecast but not all of us have seen it. as we go hour by hour, we are going to see the potential of spotty showers this afternoon and into the evening, and then again for tomorrow evening, you can see it moving from the north bay to the coast and that

highest chance thereof seeing the wet weather. on saturday, as we look at the inland areas, not a lot of activity there go into the weekend. we have rain to the south and to the north. right now we are in between those two systems with dry conditions for now. there's more rain ahead, especially as we go into next week. an atmospheric river will dip to the south, and even that looks like it will weaken by the time it arrives next week. we need more snow. only looking at one to three inches of snow in the sierra into the weekend. mike, you are seeing more slowing in the east bay? >> we are, kari. 880 and 680, both coming south of 580. that's not a surprise. the only thing unusual is the

slowing south towards mission, and the mission boulevard cut over, we do have a crash, possibly two, between the parkway and mission. that's why they are slowing. one of the crashes leaves the cars in the lanes, so we are watching that. in the south bay, a smooth flow of traffic. the northbound direction, has your predictable build. back to you. >> thank you, mike. happening now, bart is working to track down a man that they say caused a big interruption during the evening commute. take a look. bart says this man caused major delays. the tube was shutdown which meant there were no trains. all service was eventually restored at 6:30 last night. anybody that knows who that man is should call bart police. moving you forward to a

[ physical therapy staff discusses results ] for your mind. for your body. and for the community. for all that is me, for all that is you. kaiser permanente.

we are moving you forward this morning with a look at the top stories here on "today in the bay," starting with the breaking news out of san francisco. >> police are at the scene of an unusual situation at the cal train station south of market. that's where a man can be seen hanging from power lines above the platform. he has been there since 2:00 this morning. this is video shot about 30 minutes ago at 4th and king street. all trains have been stopped, and employees say the power is shut off. so far police do not have an estimated time of how long that situation will continue.
