plan taking shape. the comments he's making overnight on the

social media as they're talking about declaring a national emergency over immigration. plus, check your fridge. the recall alert impacting a lot of big grocery chains after organic carrot products are now being linked to a deadly e coli outbreak. we're live with more on the california farm at the center of the outbreak. and here's a live look outside. a chilly start to the new workweek, but we're also tracking more rain in the forecast. meteorologist kari hall is timing out what we can expect over the next seven days. this is today in the bay. good morning to you on this monday, i'm marcus washington, and i'm laura garcia. we'll get a look at the roads in just a moment with mike inouye. but first let's start out with a look at that forecast. kari hall and it's been very chilly. these past few mornings. it's cold again today. but of course, as we go into our new week, we have a lot that we're going to be watching over the next few days. it is all dry now. will stay dry

today, but then this atmospheric river is starting to take shape as we watch it. it's going to be our first major storm of the season coming in midweek. we are going to have some time to prepare so as we're starting out this morning, it is a chilly one for walnut creek. it's 48 degrees with a breezy wind, and as we go through the day, it stays mostly sunny with a gradual warm up, but our temperatures headed for the upper 50s and low 60s. so we'll talk about the arrival of that storm coming up in a few minutes. mike, you're seeing the reports are pretty quiet right now. yeah, the reports are looking really slim on the chp report. we like to see that early start green sensors around the bay. i want to zoom you in. actually, hidden by that 580 shield, we had a crash which will now looks like it's cleared from surface streets right over here through livermore. it was on manning, just off of manning. so if you know where that street is, there may be crews clearing. but right now vasco roads just fine out of the altamont. typical light slowing a little bit of brake tapper. no big deal. and over here through

contra costa county getting over toward the bay bridge. an easy drive into alameda county. back over to you. thanks, mike. well, we are following breaking news this morning. spirit airlines filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. this comes as the company is struggling with losses and growing debt and a failed merger with jetblue. spirit says it has secured a deal with bondholders to keep the company afloat. now, ticket sales and all other operations will continue as normal. scott mcgrew is following what this means for the future of the company. he'll have an update for us coming up in just a few minutes with his business and tech segment. also breaking at this hour, president elect donald trump is confirming he is prepared to declare a national emergency and use the military to carry out his promised mass deportations. overnight, trump responded to a truth social post saying true to a post which states trump would declare a national emergency for his promised mass deportation program. it is a program which focuses on the southern border. today in the bay brie jackson is following the very latest on his

transition back to the oval office. president elect trump, with a ringside view of the u.s. sea fight over the weekend. as the country gets a clearer picture of his picks for key roles in his new administration. trump's latest is fossil fuel executive chris wright as energy secretary. he's argued that the climate crisis is a myth. you get the truth from people who. this comes amid news that mr. trump's pick for defense secretary. pete hegseth paid a woman an undisclosed amount of money after she accused him of sexual assault. seth's attorney says his client is completely innocent of what he calls a consensual encounter. lawmakers also raised alarms about seth's past comments that the military should not have women in combat roles. there is deep concern, but also a deep opportunity to sort of make sure we are putting only qualified people in these jobs. there's also controversy surrounding trump's choice for

attorney general matt gaetz. some lawmakers want the house ethics committee to release its report into allegations of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use. gaetz denies wrongdoing and resigned from congress last week. some republicans argue the report should not be released. the jurisdiction of the ethics committee is limited to those who are serving in the institution. i believe the senate should have access to that now. should it be released to the public or not? that that's i guess that will be part of the negotiations. democrats are also blasting trump's selections, including robert kennedy jr, as health and human services secretary. these nominations are insane and crazy. congress gearing up for a battle over cabinet selections in washington, brie jackson nbc news developing right now. the fda investigating a new e coli outbreak, this one tied to carrots. at least one person has died. today in the bay's bob

redell live for us this morning. and, bob, a lot of people probably questioning where were these carrots sold? good morning to you, marcus. these contaminated carrots were sold at stores like namely target, walmart, trader joe's, and they came from grimmway farms, which is based in bakersfield. the e coli was found in selected select bagged organic, whole and baby carrots. the whole carrots alone are sold under 15 different names, including bunny love and o organics. now, the cdc says the outbreak has been reported in 18 different states. unfortunately killed one person, sickened almost four dozen more, including at least three people here in california. we spoke with san jose state food safety expert todd engstrom. he says e coli, if you're not familiar, comes from the intestines of animals and can sometimes be passed on to produce through contaminated water. it seems to be an ongoing problem, and it's somewhat alarming, especially when dealing with raw vegetables

that people aren't cooking. it becomes really problematic, and cross-contamination from that pathogen going from one surface to another can be really, really challenging, especially on the home front. now e coli symptoms include diarrhea, stomach cramps and fever, but can also be much more serious children. the elderly and people with compromised immune systems. they're most at risk. the outbreak comes on the heels of an e coli coli outbreak in october that sickened more than 100 people who had eaten at a mcdonald's. it was traced to slivered onions from taylor farms in salinas. the incidents have left some consumers obviously feeling uneasy. grimmway with regards to those contaminated carrots, they say those are no longer on store shelves. but if you happen to have them at home in your refrigerator, you will want to throw those away. reporting live bob redell today in the bay. good information there. thank you. bob. will the city of pacifica today take a new step

in helping more teachers make it in the bay? crews will break ground on a new affordable housing project. it will be located at what's called the odd start property on odd stat boulevard. it's currently a group of old buildings which used to serve as a school and later an athletic venue, and community center. the city hopes it will assist in better recruitment and retainment of teachers and staff at pacifica schools. the groundbreaking is planned for 4:00 this afternoon. 507 for you this morning. taking a live look out in dublin. folks on the road. getting started with the day. temperatures out there. certainly cold for you. meteorologist kari hall, of course. tracking what we can expect today. and we've been talking about some incoming rain this week. and we're going to be talking a lot about this. the rain right now looking at the radar and the satellite, you can see that we are all in the clear for today. there's not a whole lot happening close to home, but across the pacific northwest you can see all of the rain coming in and all of the clouds extending out into the pacific. it will be coming in over the next few days. we will have our

first major atmospheric river coming in, and it arrives on wednesday during the afternoon into the evening, and it looks like pretty much all of the bay area gets some rain. but then that atmospheric river starts to wave a little bit to the north and takes with it the rain just mainly into the north bay on thursday and then friday it starts to sink back down and may be more intense with some higher winds and the heavy rain continuing at least into the start of the weekend. so we're looking at some pretty significant rainfall here farther to the north, where we see the yellow. that's six inches of rainfall that we could see north of santa rosa. and then the purple shading shows about two and a half to three inches of rain. and then for areas south of the golden gate bridge, it could be more like 1 to 2in of rainfall, which once again will be our first significant storm of the season. so i'll be tracking that. we'll have more details coming up in just a few minutes. mike has a look at where you can fill up for a little bit lower today. yeah, we've i've seen local

prices go down over by my house. at least i've seen them on the chart. but the rest of the state pushed us out of that top ten list. so bigger changes elsewhere. livermore still on a roll with 349 best in the bay area at marathon on holmes today. san jose's shows up for the san jose's south bay's best for 375 at dimond gas and market. same place we've been talking about last week over on south winchester. and for the best price for a quick fill up in san francisco, head to speedway on cesar chavez street. it's 389 a gallon. that's the best in that city and county. check out gasbuddy.com to see the changes over the weekend on the roadway. not a lot of change over the last few minutes. it's a smooth drive as we get over toward the north bay. the overnight road work that started last night and will continue overnight through thursday. highway 37 near lakeville. that cleared up without any incident. no problems there. taking a look at the north bay, there's san rafael. those tail lights, the commute direction. heading south toward lincoln. you see a nice easy drive. back to you. thanks, mike. lacing up and pounding the pavement ahead on today in the bay. we hear from the winner of

this moment? well, it's a push for marketing efficiency, right? how do we create more with less? i mean, that's just that's sort of, you know, business one on one. that ad, one of several coca-cola has put together. none of those people are real. today show coming up at 7:00, right after today in the bay. looking ahead on the week, mortgage rates have stabilized, though they're stabilizing at a higher level. and we've talked about this. concerns over inflation in the upcoming trump administration due to spending and tariffs. have the ten year bond yields higher. that's driven up mortgage rates. and netflix says 60 million people watched the jake paul mike tyson fight on friday. paul was ruled the winner after a not particularly active bout. the fight before the title card became the most watched women's sporting event in history. 72,000 people watched it in person at cowboys stadium. netflix is getting into live sports with two nfl games on christmas. crazy weekend for sports. and you had that. you had the stanford thing, which

foot through some of the most scenic parts of berkeley? thousands yesterday took part in the berkeley half marathon. the 13 mile race starts downtown and winds through the cowell campus, wrapping up at civic center park at martin luther king junior way. we caught up with this year's winner, eric noll, who says finishing second last year left him craving more. nobody remembers second place, so after last year's second finish definitely came out with looking for the w. so it feels good. and i run these streets like every day, so it feels good to kind of have a home crowd and be familiar with the course, so it felt good. it's really nice. goes to local guy. all right. participants had a lot of ways to enjoy the race. besides the half marathon, there was also a 10-k, a5k and a family one k. so you can kind of build build yourself up. yeah, absolutely. it sounds like he remembered second place. yeah, exactly. motivated him to come back. there you go. so two time winner now. i always look at those marathons. like the cooler it

is, the better it is. yeah, i just look at the marathons and watch. yeah, absolutely. keep going. you got it. we did have some cold weather over the weekend, and at least we had the sunshine during the afternoon to help warm us up. it is a nice cool morning once again and mostly clear as we take a look at some of our current conditions that we're waking up and heading out to on this monday morning, we are going to see it all clear for today. and then as we go through the next several days, we'll be talking about our first major storm of the season coming in. it is developing and as we time it ou, we see the rain arriving on wednesday. but then it starts to push back toward the north bay on thursday. so a lot of us get a break, but then we are going to see it waving back in and intensifying on friday. so that's when we're really going to get the brunt of this storm. with still some lingering showers into our weekend just off and on, continuing to snow in the sierra and it looks like we could have several days of rain chances in our forecast starting on wednesday and continuing into the weekend. so

looking across the region at how much rain we could see, the rain outlook shows that these areas in yellow, that's calistoga on northward, could be about six inches of rainfall between wednesday and saturday. and then for the areas in light pink, that's about three inches of rainfall. and that's much of the rest of the north bay into the east bay. we could see about 2.5in of rainfall, which is fairly significant coming over the course of 2 to 3 days. and then for the sierra, we go into the weekend with the possibility of a couple of feet of snow, and then there could be some more coming next week in total. look at this 58in of snow over the next week and a half for kingvale. so that's going to be a really big boost to getting those ski resorts open in time for thanksgiving, as well as beyond. so we're looking good here. we need the rain of course, but we don't want too much of it and we're going to be watching out for the problems that come along with that.

that's the flooding. that's the high winds and downed trees, and we want to be prepared for that as it comes toward the middle to end of the week. we do have a couple of dry days. that's today and tomorrow. we're looking good. mild temperatures with highs in the mid 60s inland. and for san francisco will be in the low 60s for today and upper 50s tomorrow. mike, now you have a crash in some slowing that showed up. we'll take them individually. the slowing is where you would expect it here. highway 37 out of vallejo. just saw those sensors. really change over the last ten minutes. no surprises. a smooth drive across the carquinez benicia bridge. and also for highway four. oh, there we go. little break tapping already coming in out of bay point into concord. over here. you're looking at the commute directions for these yellow arrows. but the orange arrow, the crash i found on vasco road while chp found it reported there is just a couple blocks north of 580. so note that's counter commute your commute direction. let's time out the drive from contra costa into alameda counties. that's vasco road here. you're already at 19 minutes. that's a couple minutes longer than your minimums through the area. so

we're building the volume of traffic and maybe folks are slowing past that scene. didn't show up on the sensors, though. we're looking at the rest of the bay, a smooth drive from the north bay all the way down into the south bay. we should see right here, 101 showing a little more slowing over the next 15 to 20 minutes. back to you. thank you. mike. 521 this morning next here on today in the bay nbc bay area responds. our energy bills are up. we want to help you bring them back down. i'm consumer investigar chris chmura. towe

have to mean a spiking energy bill. yeah. chris gilmore shows us ways to cut our winter energ. unfortunately, the best way to cut your energy cost is to use less energy. but that doesn't necessarily mean you have to be uncomfortable. let's start with your thermostat. pg&e says each degree you lower your thermostat can save you 2%. drop it five degrees at night, and you might save 10% if you're able to pg&e recommends 68 or lower blankets to the rescue when you leave your home. try to keep the warm air inside. close those curtain, shades, and blinds, then, pg&e says, set the thermostat to 56 while you're away. the department of energy recommends a look at your water heater. many are set to 140 degrees by default. we'll consider 120 instead. if 120 is warm enough for your showers and doing the

dishes, uncle sam says you might save 22%. pg&e says you can save roughly another 10% on your bills if your attic walls, doors and windows are sealed nicely. caulk is cheap and it easily fills those gaps where warm air can escape or cool air. weasels in. if you qualify as low income or receive government assistance, click this qr code. you might be eligible for savings of 20 to 35%. thanks, chris. coming up next, the top stories that we're following for you today, including a mask mandate, is returning for some north bay residents. ahead, we talk to health leaders about the change. i'm ginger conejero saab. we're live at sfo this morning. thanksgiving travel holiday forecast. they're out. we'll run that down for you up ahead and we'll give you this year's top destinations, including a city right here in the

tracking the worst times to hit the road. we're also looking ahead to your holiday forecast. meteorologist kari hall tracking the outlook for a possible wet thanksgiving. this is today in the bay. good monday morning to you. hope you had a great weekend. thanks for starting your day with us. i'm laura garcia. and i'm marcus washington. let's get a look at that forecast this morning. meteorologist kari hall is tracking those cold temperatures out there as we start our day. and we started out with some 30s and low 40s across much of the bay area. and it is all clear as we're getting started and heading out the door. but here's what we're looking forward to this week. we are going to have some frosty conditions as you're stepping out with a sunny day ahead and midweek into saturday, we're going to have some heavy rain and high wind likely as we get an atmospheric river coming in and some big sierra snow coming in as well with some high winds. we're going to see those some dry, sunny conditions today. we're starting out in the

upper 40s headed to about 60 degrees for this afternoon there. and upper 50s and low 60s all across the bay. so we'll talk more about the changes coming up. mike, you are tracking a haze. a hazard on the bay bridge trying to see exactly where it is. it's on the bend heading into treasure island. you see, slowing on the incline, folks, let's take this closer to you. maybe you can find some flashing lights under the tower. i thought i saw some, but maybe not. we're talking about a disabled vehicle in that westbound commute that caused those metering lights to be turned on early today, just before 530. and so there's already slowing at the toll plaza, a build up. and there's also slowing across the span to at least treasure island for west 80, typical for highway 37 and highway four. we see those builds as well. but again, the bay bridge showing a little more slowing because of a disabled vehicle on the span itself. there is a crash in san jose. 101 at 87, doesn't talk about lanes blocked, but i'll track that. no slowing shows up yet. back to you. we are following some breaking news in san jose as well. police now confirming an officer-involved shooting

that followed calls about a family disturbance. it happened when officers say the suspect threatened them with a knife and officers fired. it happened at about 8:00 last night near south first and sutter streets. the suspect then barricaded himself inside a home. officers eventually moved in for the arrest. the suspect is now in critical condition, and two blocks of sutter street and firs remain closed at this hour. happening today. another bay area county enacting a mask mandate. but before you blame covid era practices, you should know that this was a policy long before the pandemic. today, in the bay's kris sanchez joins us now with more on why now for sonoma county? well, why now is because we are now in peak respiratory virus season. what we used to call flu season. but now we know there are more bugs going about. but while california, sonoma county is now asking its health care workers to mask up in order to stay healthy and stay on the job for years before the pandemic,

sonoma county used a mask mandate for doctors, nurses and other providers to limit the spread of viruses like the flu and rsv and bacterial infections like whooping cough. now, several other counties enacted mask mandates starting november 1st in alameda, contra costa, santa clara, san mateo and napa counties. their health care workers are also wearing a mask when they are providing care in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities and other health care facilities. we need our health care workers during the winter. the winter is the time when we see many more patients per day, and we want to be sure we have a whole and healthy workforce. now, while covid levels are low and flu levels are low in california, cases of respiratory syncytial virus or rsv, those are starting to tick up. and with the holiday gatherings coming up and travel ahead, we could still see cases on the rise. now, if you have not

gotten covid and flu shots yet, you're not too late. but you do have to act quickly. it takes a couple of weeks for your bodies to build that immunity. so if you get a shot soon, you will be protected in time for thanksgiving. now, the cdc recommends vaccination, particularly for children five and under. adults 65 and older, pregnant women and all people with underlying health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, asthma or people who are immunocompromised. now, the respiratory virus season generally peaks in february, so between now and then we're going to be in it. so make sure you wash your hands and do what you got to do. marcus. all right. thanks, chris. well, the trial of the man accused of killing cash app co-founder bob lee resumes this morning in san francisco. last week, he took the stand in his own defense. he recounted his version of the events surrounding lee's deadly stabbing in april of 2023. well, he says that he killed the tech executive in self-defense. this is after lee lunged at him with a knife after the pair took

drugs. he says that he did not find out about the cash app co-founder's death until the next day. a vallejo man is facing murder charges after police say he stabbed his wife, then admitted to stabbing and killing his own mother. police identified the suspect as 63 year old frank mcmillan. officers on saturday responded to his home on sorrento drive to find he and his wife each suffering from stab wounds. both are expected to survive. during questioning, police say he admitted to stabbing and killing his mother at a separate home on campbell drive, where officers later confirmed in a welfare check. happening today, san mateo county workers are expected to start voting to ratify a new contract. the union announcing a tentative new deal friday. and it actually leaders say that it includes the largest wage hike in 20 years. it calls for a 15% wage increase over three years, and also establishes cesar chavez day as a new paid holiday and boosts

health benefits. some 2000 rank and file members will vote on that new deal. new this morning, new numbers projecting record travel over the thanksgiving holiday. yeah, we're talking about some 80 million americans will be on the move, including record numbers in the air today in the bay. ginger conejero saab live for us over at sfo this morning. and ginger, the travel period also extended for the first time this year. that's right. good morning marcus and laura. although today would not count as part of that thanksgiving travel period, but it has been extended to the tuesday before thanksgiving and the monday after thanksgiving. and that might explain the boost in numbers. but nonetheless, it is looking like a busy time to travel. as you mentioned, around 80 million people projected to be on the move this thanksgiving period. they are projected to travel 50 miles or more for thanksgiving travel. that's up 1.7 million people from last year, and 2 million more than

2019. now, of that 80 million, almost 6 million will fly domestically this holiday. nearly 2.3 million are traveling with other modes of transportation outside of flying or driving. the cost of flying within the us is up slightly 3%. international travel is down 5%, and as of today, show explains, we are really seeing records all around this year. records all around cruises, by the way. huge look at that number. busses, trains, cruises up 18% versus 2019. cruises are basically booked solid. well let's talk driving to your holiday destination from that 80 million. triple a projects a record 72 million people will travel by car. now that's an additional 1.3 million travelers on the road, which also surpasses pre-pandemic levels. for those planning on hitting the road, gas prices are trending lower this thanksgiving season. last year, the national average was $3.26, and this year

it may fall below $3 a gallon for the first time since 2021. so if you are hitting the roads, the best and worst time to travel. we come out with those pretty often when this time of year comes around, triple a really gets to the specifics by metro, but the general rule is on the days leading up to thanksgiving, try to get out before 10 or 11 in the morning, and if you are lucky enough to be able to extend your holiday break all the way to the monday after you got to get out early, get out before 8 a.m, or then wait till after seven. it's a pretty long break, guys. we're live at sfo. ginger conejero saab today in the bay. sounds really nice. i know i was thinking the same, like okay, especially on a monday. right? all right. thanks so much. okay, what about the forecast though for the holidays. yeah. so at least my kids are off all next week. so i know that there may be some families traveling this upcoming weekend. and that's when we're going to see this big

storm coming in. we've been talking about the atmospheric river coming in midweek and going into the next several days. after that, we're still going to see the storm in the area, but it looks like at least atmospheric river wise. we'll see it clearing out ahead of thanksgiving, but temperatures are going to be cool. take a look at san jose. we're extending it out ten days. looking at the weekend where we are going to see highs in the low 60s. but we are also going to see that cool weather extending into the middle of next week. so that's as far as we can see right now in terms of planning for thanksgiving. i know the days leading up to that is looking pretty good for early next week, and then we're watching this storm system that will be affecting us going from wednesday through saturday and possibly into sunday. so i'll have more of that timeline coming up in a few minutes. mike, you're continuing with that delay on the bay bridge? yeah, a note also, though, on the thanksgiving note kari a lot of kids like you said, are off next week, and so this may be the week with a heavier volume.

actually, for the early commute in the mornings, folks trying to get those meetings out of the way this week so they can extend it through next week for some more days off over here. this backup, though, is extra heavy. not because of that schedule, but because of a disabled vehicle reported on the area approaching or just past treasure island reports of a disabled vehicle in one of your middle lanes, and that has backed things up across the span and started that backup a little bit early over at the toll plaza. but i do see these speed sensors improving, and the crew is reportedly on scene or perhaps dealing dealt with the scene there. as you travel through treasure island. so we should see some improvement across the bay bridge. everything else pretty normal for that view there. a look ahead as well, like last night. we're going to have through thursday night, overnight roadwork and traffic control. lakeville highway and highway 37 in that area. they're working on the drainage there before the storms come in. and so they are going to have some traffic control do mine the cones and watch those speeds through the area. meanwhile, tonight in downtown san jose, we have sharks playing at the tank tonight as well. so do note right around sap center. there may be some more pedestrians just about the same time as some

folks may be leaving the area after work. getting to work this morning. we do have some slowing and there's that crash 101 at 87. there must at least be some visual impact because we see a little more slowing a little earlier around the airport. sjc, back to you. good. good to know. thanks. 540 this morning. and bart today expands its rollout of the new gates meant to crack down on fare evaders. stick around because we have that story just ahead. and the head of donald trump's proposed government cutting agency promises and extinction level event for government departments. well, maybe you need some laughs. these days. we're going to meet a comic bringing his own unique brand of comedy to a new podcast. keep it

starting out clear, and it's in the upper 40s. chilly morning with a very slow warm up today, but at least it will be sunny. you'll need that jacket throughout the day as our highs only make it into the upper 50s. we will have dry weather today and tomorrow, and then rain arrives wednesday. we'll talk about our first major storm of the season coming up. and right now i'm just looking at that flag in the lower left corner. things are pretty calm there, but we're watching for those changes, watching the changes in the commute as well. the headlights southbound through fremont a little farther north. there may be a crash or maybe two actually, reports of a hazard. we'll sort things out and i'll let you know what's

going on. coming up. sounds good. we'll check back with you both. it's 544 right now. president biden has given permission for the ukrainians to fire medium range american missiles into russia. and scott mcgrew the u.s. and ukraine. concerned about the massing of north korean troops on the border. yeah. with any luck, these missiles are going to hit them, right? they're called atacms, these missiles. it's an acronym ukraine has been itching to send these missiles into russian territory, though military experts say ukraine has done a pretty good job using long range drones as a replacement. so far. biden, meanwhile, has resisted giving permission as he was concerned it would cause russia to escalate the war, maybe even against nato. president biden is in brazil for the g20 conference. on sunday, he became the first sitting u.s. president to visit the amazon rainforest because the fight to protect our planet is literally a fight for humanity for generations to com.

it may be the only existential threat to all our nations. incoming president trump, meantime, has confirmed on his social media he will declare a national emergency and send u.s. troops to protect the border. state national guard already make regular appearances in texas and arizona, but active duty is different under the law, trump says 20 to 30 million undocumented immigrants will be deported. trump, standing by his proposed secretary of defense, pete hegseth, who it's been reported, was under investigation after an alleged sexual assault in monterey at a republican women's conference in 2017. no charges filed. hegseth lawyers confirmed there was a sexual encounter and that money was paid to the woman under an agreement of a confidential settlement. but the woman, they say, was the aggressor. the lawyer said, quote, this is a situation where a consensual encounter occurred and unfortunately, the woman had to come up with a lie to explain why the woman had not come back

to her husband's room that night. more pressure on the speaker of the house and the house ethics committee to release the report about trump's pick for attorney general, matt gaetz. gaetz had been under investigation accused of sexually trafficking a high school girl. at first by the justice department and later by congress itself. no charges filed there either. the speaker says the report should remain under seal because gaetz is no longer a member of congress. tesla's elon musk, meantime, who trump has named as a co-chair of a cost cutting effort, says he and vivek ramaswamy will cut so much from the budget, it will be a, quote, extinction level event. ramaswamy promises thousands in reduction in force, a government term for firings and layoffs. are you expecting to close down entire agencies like president trump has talked about the department of education, for example. are you going to be closing down departments? we expect mass reductions. we expect certain

agencies to be deleted outright. we expect mass reductions in force in areas of the federal government that are bloated. we expect massive cuts among federal contractors and others who are overbilling the federal government. so yes, we expect all of the above, and i think people will be surprised by, i think, how quickly we're able to move with some of those changes. now, musk has said they're going to cut 2 trillion out of the budget, but you can see here when you take out the stuff that you have to pay for, like social security, the discretionary budget is less than $2 trillion. this is important context. as we listen to musk's plans to make the whole several departments extinct. a vast majority of the federal budget goes to just three things one, two, three. and very few americans support cutting these three things. laura, a lot to follow there. thank you. scott. 548 right now, firefighters will take part in a prescribed burn starting today in mount diablo state park covers about 100 acres in

mitchell canyon, south of clayton. several nearby roads and trails will be closed. the burn is expected to continue through wednesday. also happening today, crews begin installing bart's next generation faregates at the warm springs south fremont station. the six foot gates are designed to better thwart fare jumpers, and they're now in use at ten bart stations, with a plan to have all stations upgraded by the end of next year. well, thousands of families will receive free meals in marin county this holiday season. this is all thanks to a food drive by the boy scouts over the weekend. i remember doing this as a kid, so each year they go door to door collecting food donations. this year they collected nearly 50,000 pounds of food with the help from marin county fire and san francisco marin food bank. the donations are now at the san rafael food bank, distributed throughout the holidays. and we here at nbc bay area are doing our part to help out our nourishing neighbors campaign is officially underway. members of our today in the bay family kick

things off with our own annual food drive over the weekend. mike inouye was up early saturday morning, flanked by janelle wang as well as raj mathai. you don't see them in that picture, but they were there. i promise you. and this is they were at the safeway in el camino real in menlo park. the group helped hand out some cool nbc bay area swag to those customers. and not to mention, look at this myself, along with kris sanchez. we were there over at the rivermark safeway in santa clara starting out the day. now we love meeting all of our today in the bay viewers this weekend. there are a total of 167 safeway's participating across the bay area, so there's pretty much one near you. our nourishing neighbors food drive lasts through christmas day, so you have some time. get out there and do that, and next time you're at a safeway, you can donate the $10 donation at the checkout. as of last night, the food drive has already raised more than $191,000, with several weeks to go, we know that your

donations really can make a big difference right here in the lives of so many people in need here in our own backyard in the bay area. nice to see. keep it going. well, turning for you this morning. let's talk about this. if you thought about connecting with a popular jewish comedian. well, if that's something you've thought about, there you go. i just learned about it. the yiddish word for complain, by the way. and it'll just be a small part of a new podcast. stars of david, which debuts tomorrow. it's hosted by comedian comedian elon gold and his co-host eli leonard. gold is also an actor, and the way he puts it, his podcast will include guests who are jewish covering topics that are universal. as elon tells our own mike inouye, even his parents are playing a role. i'm still holding the grudge that they didn't teach me our sort of language from eastern europe, and now this is payback. now they have to come on the podcast and teach me and our viewers and listeners a yiddish word of the

day from the shadows. eight episodes drop tomorrow. tomorrow's guests will include singer montana tucker and civil rights champion keana dvd. it's available at jewish unpacked, .com or anywhere that you find your podcast, which is everywhere. yeah. okay. have you heard about this? this friday, the highly anticipated fall blockbuster wicked finally hits movie theaters. yeah, but tomorrow night, the countdown officially hits the fever pitch. this is right here on nbc bay area. so if you care to find me, love to the western sky. yes. that is do that in studio. we're going to do that for you on thursday. just so you know, that's how i fly to work. just so you know. so look, make sure you check it out because you're going to get a behind the scenes glimpse of cynthia erivo performing. you heard it right there, high flying stunts there. and the highly anticipated defying gravity. yeah. that is probably the most popular song of the musical. tomorrow night,

nbc airs defying gravity. the curtain rises on wicked. audiences will be able to get some behind the scenes looks as you see right there, of what it takes to make that movie the magic of oz, bringing it to life. that includes massive construction across 17 soundstages and four backlots, leaving cast members spellbound. the scale is kind of a little hard to really wrap my mind around. i still have not processed any of it like i. this still does not feel like real life to me to be honest. yeah, yeah yeah. until until the movie comes out, i think it will not feel totally real to us. oh yeah. so wicked distributor is of course, comcast owned by universal, which is our parent company. defying gravity. the curtain rises on wicked airs at 10 p.m. tomorrow night. it's followed by nbc bay area news at 11. and make sure you tune in to today in the bay. tomorrow morning, you'll see my interview with one of the cast members, michelle yeoh. she's a part of that, so stick around for that. it's going to be a good one.

that is amazing though. all that goes into it. yeah, i'm glad you explained it was behind the scenes because i was like, really disappointed in those special effects. and then i realized, right now it comes to life. you know, i got a chance. now you know why she sings are. you like? yeah. and they're like, look it. that's perfect. i do the same thing. all right. kerry's got to look at our forecast. i already have my tickets for the weekend, which might be good because it might be raining. yeah. it's going to be raining off and on. and we are going to see a lot of wet weather coming our way this week. so we're starting out dry today. it's chilly and we're seeing those temperatures in the 30s in parts of the north bay mainly, but 40s elsewhere. frosty morning but will be a sunny day. and this midweek into saturday there will be our first major storm of the season coming in. we'll have to watch out for the possibility of flooding, as well as some very big sierra snow. and then looking at our temperatures right now, we're at 38 degrees in napa and it is 35 in calistoga. and we're seeing mostly low 40s for the east bay as you're heading out. but then

as we take a look at our highs for this afternoon, 59 in palo alto, that's kind of on the cool side. will be 59 in dublin and 60 in martinez. and tomorrow also sunny and just a touch warmer with low 60s in san jose and upper 50s for the north bay. wednesday is when we'll start to see that rain coming in. temperatures pretty much holding steady as we see the clouds that will be extending across the pacific northwest, reaching into the bay area. so first we all see the rain coming in on wednesday, but then it will start to lift back to the north just a little bit as this atmospheric river just waves across the region. and we will have some times of heavy rain. looks like thursday into friday as the heaviest rain with lingering showers continuing into the weekend and possibly early next week. so during the several days that we'll see rain off and on, the heaviest rain is just to our north with those areas in yellow at six inches of rainfall, it's about four inches for santa rosa and napa between wednesday and saturday, and

parts of the south bay and red could possibly see about an inch and a half to two inches of rainfall. and the sierra is going to get several feet of snow going into the next week and possibly more ahead. so we are going to see a big start to our cierra snowfall season and time for those resorts to open. here's a look at our 7-day forecast. lots to look at here. it's sunny today and mild and tomorrow it's going to be become partly cloudy. rain chances increasing on wednesday with rain off and on into the weekend and highs warming up into the upper 60s and low 70s. san francisco will have a nice quiet start to the week, but things really ramp up as that storm arrives on wednesday. back to you. all right. thanks so much, kari. well, happening now, san mateo county health leaders, they're reporting the first case of severe strain of mpox is called cloud one. officials say that the person became infected after traveling in eastern africa. that patient is experiencing mild symptoms and is recovering at home. the
