meeting taking place today as

leaders look to fill the seat he vacated following his arrest. bart police opened fire outside an east bay train station. new details coming in while you were sleeping about the late night shooting san francisco's mayor elect lays out his plans to move the city forward in a new interview. the first details on his transition team and his main priority once he's taken. once he takes office. this is today in the bay. good morning. tuesday. good morning to you all out there. i'm marcus washington, and i'm laura garcia. we're going to check in with mike for a look at that tuesday morning commute. a lot of people hit the road, but vianey is in for kari this morning. good to see you. good to see you as well. our last full day of completely dry conditions before we get the wet weather moving in. today will be a day for prepping. depending on where you live. but one thing you will also notice is just how cold it is. the frost advisories remain in effect and these are the current temperatures right now. we've got 30s for most of

the bay area from south san jose. look at fairfield 33 degrees up through parts of the north bay, 33 as well. and just to give you an idea, here's the temperature difference. compared to the past 24 hours running about 11 degrees colder right now in morgan hill, ten degrees cooler in oakland, and things will stay dry but cool throughout the remainder of the afternoon. we're in the 40s through about 9:10 a.m. for a lot of the spots, and then will be in the upper 50s low 60s. now i want to show you satellite radar, because the first thing you're going to notice is going to be the increase in cloud cover today. but look what's churning out in the pacific. there it is. you can see that moisture tap the atmospheric river is expected to make its arrival starting tomorrow. and folks in the north bay definitely need to prepare as we continue to see an active weather pattern lining up just in time, not only for wednesday, but also for the weekend. i'll have a closer look at that forecast in a few minutes. first, let's check in with mike. yeah, i was watching the crews here. i was watching the cones, actually, here on the northbound

side of the golden gate bridge overnight. pretty much all week. we're having lane restrictions, but they did just pick those cones up in the last few minutes. saw some slowing. look at that. it's already starting to clear up on the approach and across the northbound direction of the bridge into marin county. throughout we're seeing green sensors, as you would expect, it's an easier drive. tuesday. this tuesday should see a pretty good volume of early commuters as folks get into the office, and some folks are getting a little extra work done this week so they can take off next week. we'll see how the morning goes, but expect a good volume of traffic out there. back to you. thank you very much, mike. happening today. san jose leaders chart a course for the future leadership of district three. that council seat, now vacant after the arrest of omar torres today in the bay's kris sanchez joins us now. and kris leaders want to ensure people that live in that district actually have a voice. right. they elected this person who now is not representing them. right. so one of the main items on the agenda for the council meeting today is how to fill that district three council seat vacated by omar torres, who, as we have said, resigned and is now in jail without bail. omar

torres seat has been vacant since he was arrested on charges of sexually molesting a minor. today, the san jose city council will take the next steps to figure out the best way to fill that position. the term runs through december 31st of 2026, and the city attorney laid out two options that will be discussed at the council meeting today. one option is to appoint someone to fulfill that term until the next regular election. this is the option supported by councilman sergio jimenez, who says it is the most efficient and least costly route. the other option is a special election, which is the option favored by mayor matt mahan, who says the people of district three should get to vote on who represents them. a special election, though, would still require an interim appointment as that special election would be months away. in the meantime, the chief of staff for district three has been trying to make sure that constituents know that

their office is open for business with oversight from the mayor himself, and that six employees are working to address their needs. our focus keeps being the same helping the community. our district three residents, our small businesses and making sure downtown thrive. the estimated cost for that special election, according to the city clerk's office, could run up to $3.2 million. laura, thank you very much. so interesting. kris. well, happening now, police in san jose are looking for the driver in a deadly hit and run. it happened a little before 9:00 last night near bird and co in willow glen. so far, the victim is not being identified. authorities say he died at the hospital. police last night closed part of bird northbound to investigate. that stretch is open again this morning. new details. late last night. bart police confirming officers shot and injured someone at the union city. bart station. this

happened in the parking lot around 9:30 p.m. bart already calling that a person of interest. now they are not giving any indication about what may have led up to that shooting. that suspect's condition is also unclear. more cabinet members are being unveiled as president elect donald trump prepares to transition back to the oval office. he has selected former wisconsin congressman and fox business host sean duffy to lead the u.s. transportation department. duffy served in the u.s. house from 2011 to 2019. also well known for appearing on mtv's the real world boston. upon news of his selection by the president elect, duffy departed fox business on monday. if confirmed, he would not only be the only tv news anchor in the president elect's cabinet. last week, trump announced pete hegseth, the co-host of fox and friends weekend, as his pick for u.s. defense secretary. in the meantime, the controversy over florida congressman matt gaetz selection as trump's attorney

general continues. some republican senators are demanding to see the house ethics committee report about the former congressman. the group investigated allegations of illicit drug use and sexual misconduct, including claims that gaetz had sex with a minor. a lawyer for one of the alleged witnesses in the case is now opening up about his client's testimony. nbc news is not naming that individual. she testified that her belief was that representative gates had no knowledge that she was under 18, that she was 17 years old at the time. he was having sex with her. she also testified that when representative gates found out that she was underage, that they stopped their sexual relationship and did not resume it until after she turned 18. well, house speaker mike johnson says the report should not be released because gates is now a private citizen. gates, duffy and hegseth must all be confirmed by the senate before becoming official members of the president elect's cabinet. well, closer to home, san francisco mayor elect danielle laurie

opening up to nbc bay area about members of his transition team. now, we reported that sam altma, the ceo of sf based openai, is part of that team. also, retired san francisco police fire chief joanne hayes white, former san francisco police captain paul yep and former mayor of stockton michael tubbs, all members of laurie's transition team. now, in a one on one with raj mathai during our 7 p.m. newscast, the mayor elect says that he picked each member for their track record of shaking up the status quo. and it's not just about tech, it's about bringing our creative class back. it's about diversifying what we have downtown. laurie says that his number one priority taking office public safety and increasing the number of san francisco police officers. he will be sworn in as san francisco's 46th mayor on january eighth. and if you'd like to see that full interview with raj in san francisco, mayor elect danielle laurie. just head over to nbcbayarea.com. the latest incoming storm is

expected to officially wash awa. fire season. now that's big relief for firefighters in the north bay, but now the focus shifts to potential flooding. the first big storm of the season, not expected to lead to major flooding issues, but sandbags are already available and many of the cities, including santa rosa. meteorologist vianey arana is tracking the incoming storm, and this one i understood could stick around for a while. yeah. anytime we're monitoring atmospheric rivers, the big concern is whether it will stall out over one location. and that's what we typically tend to see. the problem with that is that means that you're going to get a ton of rain all at once. so if you zoom this out a bit, notice that's what we've got churning out in the pacific. you can see that moisture connection tap there. this is expected to make its arrival for tomorrow. now even though we're not expecting to see any major flooding at this initial system on wednesday, i do want to kind of turn your attention towards some of the rivers and the creeks. we're not expecting the napa river to go into flood stage. we're going to see that crest early saturday morning,

but we could still see a quick rise in our localized stream flow. so be mindful of that. the russian river also expected to crest saturday night at about 22ft, so that's a pretty quick rise. i mean, in the north they were expecting anywhere from 5 to 7in out of these initial rounds of rain. and then we are monitoring the arrival of a second storm system. that's also going to be another atmospheric river heading into sunday. so right now things are looking like they're going to hit the action stage right underneath i. but by the time that we get to that second storm on sunday, we could be dealing with even bigger issues leading into next week. but i'll have a closer look at that extended forecast and also what the sierra can expect in a few minutes. now let's go and check in with mike. all right. hey, folks, livermore still leads our list. it's back on the state's best ten list with two two marathon stations, both at 349, one on south livermore avenue and the other on home street. then in the north bay, we have fairfield that has their low of 369 for solano county. that's bond fair market on walters road and the best in silicon valley,

cupertino, cupertino the best is 379 at cupertino car wash on north deanza boulevard. check your area. looks like we're trending a little bit lower in some places, a little few cents a day each day. gasbuddy.com let's get a look at the roadways where we're showing a smooth flow of traffic overall. but we do have a lot of slowing. that's shown up south 680 coming down out of pleasanton and in towards sunol. things are starting to move much better as they cleared crews from overnight work. a little bit late there, but it is open from the dublin interchange down towards sunol and then in the south bay. we do have a crash reported north 87 right around curtner. there may be a couple of vehicles involved. chp should arrive shortly, but we see some slower sensors. back to you. all right. thanks, mike. taking a bite out of your budget just ahead on today in the bay. the amount you can expect to pay for your thanksgiving dinner this year. wall street had been on a tear, but it's kind of lost its way, particularly over the threats from putin. we'll take a look. and calling all raisin cain fans, we're going to tell you about a new location opening

in one bay area city. stick around. we're goin

degrees right now in santa rosa. and that's not the only spot in the 30s. we're waking up to frost advisories and freeze warnings for the north bay. daytime highs today will only climb into the 50s. you'll see the arrival of some clouds before the rain sets in for your wednesday. extended forecast coming up. and taking a live look, we're looking at dublin

westbound 580 toward the dublin interchange. that's the headlights coming into the area. but just outside of our view, we're actually maybe just under the shield. there's a lot of slowing that shows up on the sensors. i believe we have a crash as you're heading through livermore. we'll talk about that. it's impacting the commute. well, good morning. and a very happy tuesday to you. markets continue to sink. mostly, though, the nasdaq was saved by a rise in nvidia yesterday. futures though calling for a lower opening after russia's vladimir putin rattled the nuclear saber. he's done that before. blackstone that is a private equity group reportedly ready to buy. jimmy john's the sandwich store second largest in the u.s, behind subway. okay. and then look at this. this is a company called henry schlein. and no, i hadn't heard of it either. it sells dental equipment and supplies up 7% because analysts say trump's pick for health and human services, robert kennedy jr, will institute policies that will be bad for children's

dental health, which is bad if you're a parent or a kid, but brilliant if you're in the dental business. bloomberg reports. the justice department, meantime, along with a number of states, will ask a judge to force google to sell its chrome web browser in order to break up google's monopoly power. google gives away the browser for free, but it gets a tremendous amount of information from you. they'll meet in court on wednesday. obviously, the justice department will be very new in a few months, no matter who the attorney general is. and while the trump administration has signaled it will be softer on its approach to some tech, they're pretty aligned with the biden administration on google. in fact, the case against google was brought by the trump doj. walmart just turned over its books. and to analysts and reporters earlier this morning, and it's all good news. shoppers are spending they're starting their holiday shopping. they're buying a lot. late last week we

got general retail sales numbers that showed the same. the ceo warns some products will get more expensive because of the new trump tariffs poised to throw a singer playing on their worst fears. russell cohen the versace better win come real far but don't know where i'm headin. oh, you've seen it before. it's the crocodile of wall street. it's rapper razzlekhan, whose real name is heather morgan. she was just sentenced to 18 months in prison for her role in a bitcoin heist with her husband. they netted $17 million. so, i mean, you know, as far as, like, ocean's two goes, it was it was pretty good. but they had to pay it all back and then go to jail and go to prison. so. thanks, scott. you bet. 517 for you right now. okay. so new this morning. kind of like your best thanksgiving meal. expect a little bit of everything this year when it comes to paying for your holiday dinner. that's because new data indicates while most of us will be paying more

than we did last year, some thanksgiving costs are actually stabilizing or even headed lower. take a look at this. so the turkey this year well, prices this year nationally are lower than last year. and we're seeing more than 10% typically depending on the state you live. and at the same time families are spending more. new federal data indicates total cost for dinner are now about 25% higher than the start of the pandemic, new lendingtree data finds. also that thanksgiving hosts got to spend about 20% more than they did last year for thanksgiving, averaging about $430. now, one lendingtree analyst actually also points out that there are still some ways to save. if you're willing to maybe venture away from the typical grocery store that you go to or your favorite other types of retailers, you may be able to find some deals that help you keep those costs down. experts also point out some grocery chains are actually giving away turkeys this year, provided that you hit a minimum spending limit

for other items, so you're still going to spend just i've seen that in other parts of california, like central valley. they do that. but i haven't seen it in the bay area. yeah. happening today. fans are already flocking to the bay area's latest fast food chicken hotspot. the new raising cane's is opening up in colma along colma boulevard this morning, according to the sfgate. it's the chain's 100th location in the golden state. they're doing pretty good, and if it's anything like the scene that we saw last month, you can probably expect to see long lines there today. this is video from october 29th and fairfield. raising cane's opened at a location outside of the mall on travis boulevard. people there lined up for hours to get that first taste of louisiana. louisiana chains, chicken and texas toast. like this scene we also expect some giveaways, most likely at the colma location. the doors open at 9:00 this morning, so if you disappear from the newsroom, i'll be back. i'll be right back, guys. we'll

be back. i'm going to help them out a little bit. raising cain won't need the umbrella when we head out to go. not today. today is your day to prep. and especially folks who live north of the golden gate bridge. it will definitely be necessary. just think about the wind gusts. anything that could potentially fly away. anything you don't want to get wet. today is your last and final full day now. current temperatures very cold out there. i mean, we've got nothing but 30s basically, aside from a couple of 40s, it's going to be very chilly to start. and we're also going to notice a change today with an increase in cloud cover. here's what we've got in store. so you'll notice we've got some precipitation forming out in the pacific. but this is what we're really monitoring here. there's that moisture tap you can see there. we've got the atmospheric river lining up getting ready to make its arrival starting tomorrow. and i'll take you to the timing of that. but let's get to your forecasted highs for today. we're going to see the return of some clouds. it will be comfortable. we're going to be in the upper 50s around san francisco. half moon bay, up

through parts of santa rosa and napa and low 80s, i should say low 60s. excuse me. and about a 20 degree difference there. livermore about 60 degrees, san jose 63. and you're going to notice the system making its arrival first on wednesday. so starting tomorrow, it's going to start out in the north bay, becoming more spread southward. by the time we get to tomorrow evening. and if you notice, even into thursday, the majority of this does stay just north of the golden gate bridge. that's going to mean some of those higher totals for areas like sonoma, santa rosa, areas south of the golden gate bridge will get more of that impact starting on friday. you're going to also notice that it will start to get much colder and also hazy at times in the morning. but if you look here, this wintry mix with the pink and the blues, that's more sierra snow. now that active weather pattern creates that instability that's going to keep us with some rain into saturday. and then on sunday we're monitoring a second atmospheric river. sunday looks to be a bit more towards the south bay. we're going to take a closer look as far as rain totals right now, though, it

does still look like the north bay will have the biggest impact. let's take a look at the outlook heading into thursday. if you look at the key index right up top, we've got anywhere from about 3 to 4in for the north bay areas just south of the golden gate. we're talking less than an inch, but by the time we hit that friday, saturday forecast, look at some of the totals up through parts of the north bay over six inches some areas could see upwards of seven inches. we've got a little over two inches in areas like the santa cruz mountains. and then of course, we've got to keep a close eye as well on the sierra, we've got some snow totals, accumulations upwards of 20 plus feet or inches heading into the weekend. so here's what to expect wednesday into saturday. isolated flooding for the north bay that will be hit the hardest. and then of course we're going to watch out for that wind 15 to 40mph. there. so please be mindful of your 7-day forecast. we've got overnight lows in the 40s. and then we're going to max out in those upper 50s low 60s. now let's get a check of how the roads are doing with a mike. mike how's it looking out there. you know so conditions are great. as you

know we haven't had those changes. vianey is talking about. but prepare for the rain. check those windshield wipers, folks. but we are looking over toward the tri-valley, where we do have two crashes reported for your commute direction. westbound on 580. the one in isabel not seeing slowing because folks are slowed down approaching the area right around first in springtown, there may be three left, three of your left lanes blocked. that may leave only one lane. and the off ramp lane as as your access. getting past springtown. no major injuries reported, but there's damage to these vehicles. again, that's the first slowdown you see. the second one is actually starting to clear up south 680. that crew we talked about in sunol, they did report clear from the caltrans grid, but there's still equipment probably in the area. so that might be for some slowing north 87 toward curtner. things have maintained some slowing approaching the scene of a crash, which should be getting off to the shoulder. back to you. thank you. mike 523 this morning, a jolly celebration in store over at rockefeller center this year. next up here on today in the bay, the performance lineup set to take the stage at this year's tree lighting plus a beloved comedy, returns to nbc tonight. a preview of the new

morning. thanks for joining us. i'm laura garcia. and i'm marcus washington. since we're talking about the rain, let's talk about the forecast. meteorologist vianey arana in for kerry this morning. tracking what we can expect out there. i noticed this morning, i don't know if i'm wrong. is it a little bit warmer today than yesterday? it's actually chillier. yeah, i think it's colder. it must be your. must be a jacket. yeah, it must be your coat. he's got that extra. i don't know, we've got 30s. in fact, we are under a frost advisories for a lot of these areas and freeze warnings up through parts of the north bay. if you notice, we've got 30s up through parts of napa, sonoma, santa rosa, but also south san jose right now is at about 38 degrees. hayward is at 42. and if you look at the temperature trend and the icons, one thing you will notice is the increase in cloud cover by about 12:00. most places will be in the 50s. we're going to max out in those 50s, low 60s. and you can see here on satellite things are dry today. but look what's out in the pacific. you can already see the formation of that moisture tap that atmospheric river expected to make its arrival on wednesday. so starting tomorrow, here's what to expect. we've got

isolated flooding, mainly for the north bay, the north bay mountains, but also depending on where you live, you're going to see different impacts throughout the remainder of the week. as we continue in an active weather pattern leading into the weekend as well. also monitoring those winds so you don't want to stick around for timing of that. but of course, we've got to get a look at how the roads are doing and what's going on at tri-valley. we have big delays on 680. vianey there was some debris in the earlier construction zone. looks like they've cleared it because those sensors are starting to move better. top of the screen though. still have your left lanes. actually, there may be three left lanes blocked westbound in your commute direction for 580 right around the springtown exit. there may be an issue on vasco road will follow on that as well as a new icon has popped up. this icon stays north 87 at curtner. this crash with a damaged vehicle that has to be cleared. no injuries reported though. that's the better news. the typical slowing at the top of the scree. north 101 into santa in through san jose. back to you. thanks so much, mike. well, in just a few hours, the san mateo county

board of supervisors is expected to tighten the screws on their sheriff and their attempts to get her to resign. today in the bay's bob redell joins us live from outside the government center in redwood city. and, bob, this comes just a day after local lawmakers demanded the resignation of that sheriff as well. you are correct. good morning to laura and marcus. later this morning, the san mateo county board of supervisors will meet here to discuss putting a special election on the calendar for march of next year, asking the voters here on the peninsula to amend the county charter and to give the board of supervisors the power to remove a sheriff for cause by a 4/5 vote. the board has been calling on san mateo county sheriff christina corpus to resign. this was after an independent investigation found that her department allegedly fosters a culture of racial and homophobic slurs, retaliation and humiliation. the investigation also points to evidence showing sheriff corpus and her chief of staff, victor erriyon j. are involved in a

personal relationship now, the sheriff says this inquiry was politically motivated, one sided and was filled with lies. last week, the board was to consider a resolution to remove iron j's position. but sheriff corpus, as you might recall, walked into the meeting and promoted him to a different position. now, county does not believe iron, who is a civilian, meets the requirements to be an assistant sheriff, which is a position that she signed him to shortly after. assistant sheriff matthew fox resigned. in a statement, the sheriff thanked him for his service. now, the sheriff has not responded to our request for an interview in recent days. yesterday, as you alluded to, lawmakers representing san mateo county at both the state and federal level, they issued a statement calling on the sheriff to resign, saying, quote, the turmoil and violence engulfing the sheriff's office continues to damage the organization and its members, jeopardize public safety. today's meeting starts at 915, will bring you updates throughout the day and during our midday newscast, reporting

live here in redwood city. bob redell today in the bay. a lot to follow there. bob. thank you. 535 right now. authorities in the north bay are sounding the alarm after a third recent deadly boating incident in rough waters. the latest tragedy unfolded yesterday in bodega bay. today in the bay's ginger conejero saab live for us this morning in san francisco. and, ginger, it seems that there is a common thread that we're seeing between each of these incidents. that's right. marcus and laura, these incidents involved rough waters with very high swells. they also involved small boats. the two previous accidents before yesterday's incident had people doing recreational crabbing. now, the most recent accident, which took place yesterday in the midst of a small craft advisory. sonoma county deputies say a distress call first came in a little before 2 p.m, when someone spotted a boat in very rough seas. some people were already overboard. first responders rescued four people and a fifth

person died. authorities are warning people to take heed of advisories and always wear a life vest or a properly fitted flotation device. we always recommend to people is that you look up the forecasted conditions and make sure you understand them. so it's not just about looking at what the ocean looks like right now. it's about understanding how that's going to change throughout the day. now, over the weekend, mourners held a vigil in bodega bay for five people swept out to sea while crabbing on november 2nd. one person survived a 13 year old boy. then, two days later, two men were swept out to sea, also in the waters around bodega bay. now, in some cases, the bodies of those victims have still not been found. so far, authorities are not releasing any names or identities about the people involved in yesterday's tragedy in san francisco, ginger conejero saab today in the bay. very sad. thank you. ginger. well, the man

accused in a recent grisly attack on board a bart train is scheduled to be arraigned today. police say giovanni torres stabbed 54 year old woman on an antioch bound train this happened ten days ago as the train pulled into the mission in 24th street station. officers arrested him the next day. that woman suffered serious injuries. posadas faces attempted murder charges, ousted alameda county district attorney pamela price, making her first public comment since voters recalled her two weeks ago. she conceded defeat yesterday. she becomes the second bay area district attorney to be recalled in two years, joining chesa boudin in san francisco. price says her chief assistant royal roberts, will take over as the interim until supervisors select someone to finish her term in office. she is also has this message for voters. it is up to you and me to make sure that future leaders of this office remain independent decision makers and

stay the course of holding public officials accountable and law enforcement officers accountable for their actions. more than 60% voted to remove her from office. some experts call this the latest evidence of a shift in bay area politics, with voters rejecting the idea of criminal justice reform. let's take a live look outside for you this morning. this is in san jose getting started with this tuesday. we were talking earlier. it feels like wednesday. oh, to be so lucky. but you know what it is tuesday and it is the last day you said vianey full day that we won't need the umbrellas. right by the time we inch to that wednesday forecast, things will change. but the impacts will depend on where you live. that's the key component now forecasted highs for today. we're going to see the return of some cloud cover. we're waking up with the 30s and the 40s. by the afternoon i mean it's jacket weather for sure. upper 50s low 60s will be our daytime highs. and then you're going to notice throughout the afternoon the increase in cloud

cover as we continue to monitor right there that atmospheric river expected to make its arrival starting tomorrow, mainly for the north bay initially. and then it's going to become more southward spread by the evening. now there will also be a flood watch that will start going into effect tomorrow. for areas highlighted in green. so we're talking about santa rosa, san rafael, napa, calistoga. this is going to remain in place all the way through friday morning because we're talking about excessive rainfall. also, we're monitoring our local creeks and stream flows for the north bay. we could see some areas of ponding water in the roadways. the typical areas where you see some low lying flooding. now overall, we're going to see that these impacts will vary. areas in the south bay will get a lot less rain, but you'll still notice some impacts as far as the wind speeds go. i'll go into more detail as far as the timing and potential rain totals coming up in my extended forecast. first, let's get a check of how everything is going with mike. yeah, tougher drive right now through livermore, folks. 580 continues to build up as we continue to have left lanes, multiple left lanes blocked westbound 580 right around

springtown. you see the slower sensors building up past greenville, getting back toward north flynn and out of the altamont pass because of the lane restrictions there. the issue on vasco road, we don't have any detail from chp other than there's some sort of hazard roadway hazard there. but you do see the typical slowing right around dalton and approaching the area, your commute direction. this debris reported around los vaqueros, and it's not excessive. so we're going to continue to follow that as an issue out of contra costa county, down toward 580. the south bay, we still have that crash north 87 at curtner causing a distraction. and some slowing. typical for 101, you're northbound, slowing there as well. the peninsula is clear right now. now, in a few hours, we're going to have that daytime closure continuing this week over here on highway nine between sanborn road and redwood gulch. so keep that in mind from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and then overnight, we'll have the continued closure this week as long as weather permits. they're working on the drainage over here. highway 37 and lakeville highway. lane restrictions cleared by 4 a.m. today. they should be happening and clear by

the same time tomorrow if they hold it at all. if that rain comes in through the north bay, they may adjust that schedule. the lower manzanita park and ride has been closed because of that flooding. remember, those king tides are in and that rain will be coming in tomorrow morning and starting from the north bay. as vianey said. scott. all right. mike, well, coming up on today in the bay, vladimir putin rattling the nuclear saber as ukraine fires conventional weapons into russia. plus, and i hope it will be such a thrilling experience for the musical lovers. it is wicked weekend ahead. i go one on one with the wicked lead talented star michelle yeoh ahead of the movie's premiere. what she says she really hopes fans love most about this upcoming film. much

six degrees. expect to see that increase in cloud cover. we're maxing out in the upper 50s. low 60s today and enjoy the dry weather. we've got wet weather on the way. full forecast coming up. all the traffic has arrived at the bay bridge. we have the backup typical of a tuesday. we may see a little more traffic on your morning commute as folks get into the office, finish up some business, maybe try to take a little more time off next week. we do have additional delays though. continuing for the tri-valley. we'll check livermore coming up. investigators say a tragic chain of events led to the death of a mail carrier in the north bay.

this happened last night in santa rosa. this is when an suv driver plowed into a mail carrier on the side of the road. this is on corrigan street near north point parkway. now, police later determined the driver suffered a medical emergency, losing control of that vehicle. a witness said that the car swerved several times before impact, and the mail man was outside his truck sorting that mail. authorities identified that victim as 33 year old irvine hernandez from santa rosa. the suv driver suffered minor injuries. it's 5:45 right now. more trouble for trump's pick for attorney general and scott mcgrew. the lawyer who represented women who testified against matt gaetz speaking out. yes, he is pretty much to every news outlet. those women testified behind closed doors, either to the house or the doj. and that lawyer says one of his clients was eyewitness to gaetz having sexual relations with an underage girl, among other accusations. this allegedly happened at a 2017 pool party in

florida while gaetz was a u.s. congressman. the house ethics committee investigated created a report about that alleged crime, and others showing fellow members of congress on the house floor was one of them, but nobody's actually seen that report. many senators say they want to see it before gaetz's confirmation hearings. the editorial board, meantime, at the conservative wall street journal, controlled by rupert murdoch, is calling for trump to drop tulsi gabbard's name as a proposed director of national intelligence. not so much. they're worried about the association with russian propaganda, and more concerned that gabbard, a former democrat, not tough enough. miss gabbard has given no indication across her long political career that she is the right person for that vital duty. it says russian president vladimir putin has signed a new russian policy regarding the use of nuclear weapons. it's important to note this document has been making its way around the russian

government for some time. it's not new, but now that it's official, it does change russia's official nuclear stance to say that russia will allow the use of nuclear weapons to protect its sovereignty, and it will consider an attack by a non-nuclear force who is allied with a nuclear force, to be one of those situations. obviously, this exactly describes what's happening in ukraine, where the ukrainian military has been given permission by the united states to start using atacms medium range missiles to target locations inside russia itself. ukraine has been shooting things into russia for months and months, but not missiles. we supplied the ukrainians and the russians say that ukraine has already started launching atacms just days after getting permission. it's normal for the incoming president to get intelligence briefings about these kinds of things. so he's up to speed. and the washington post says trump has started to receive those briefings. in

fact, he was entitled to them as a candidate. but he went on record to say he had rejected those briefings because he was worried he'd be accused of leaking them. trump has struggled in the past with what secret and what's not. when he was president, trump tweeted out a photograph taken by a u.s. spy satellite of a missile site in iran. that picture shows the world, the capabilities of our spy satellites not meant for public consumption. at a party at mar-a-lago. then president trump showed japanese prime minister abe a document about an attack on syria. they used their phones to light up the pages so they could see them in full view of other party goers. and finally, one more poll about the election. the economist newspaper and yougov asked democrats who was to blame for the historic loss in a vast majority of respondents said nobody really. it's just one of those days. the notable thing is far more democrats blamed biden for a variety of reasons than

harris. she took the least of the blame. that same poll said americans were pretty much 5050 on harris's running mate, tim walz. about half liked him, half didn't. same for jd vance and first new buddy. what's it called? first buddy elon musk though when you break that down by party. democrats do not like elon musk. 79% polled disapprove of his policies. thank you very much, scott. it is 5.49 right now. switching gears a little bit here, one of broadway's most popular musicals, taking the yellow brick road all the way to the big screen. you've probably heard about it, but wicked is opening in movie theaters later this week. yeah, i was able to chat one on one with one of the stars of the movie, oscar award winning actress michelle yeoh. she says fans can expect a lot from this cinematic experience of a beloved story. our paths did cross at school for more than two decades. the musical wicked has entertained fans with its characters. your green. i am. and of course, the music.

okay, we'll get to that song in just a moment. but first, let's take the journey to oz, the land of oz. before dorothy's house fell on the wicked witch of the east. this is the story of how glinda and elphaba, the wicked witch of the west, met at the school of magic shiz university, where michelle yeoh plays madame morrible. when you look at the promotions and visuals for the movie, you just can't help but to feel like you're there. from what i understand, you almost weren't there because you didn't initially just want to jump into this. you had to be persuaded. yes, i did call back and say, john, you realize i don't sing, right? and this is a musical dancing i can do for you any time. then he goes like, it's not a problem. you'll be fine. so if you care to find me, look to the western sky. what michelle lacked in her vocal ability was more than met by

both ariana grande playing glinda and cynthia erivo as elphaba, who both persuaded yeoh along with the help of the movie's director and bay area native jon chu from the peninsula. whenever anyone asked me like, what's the one movie you want to do? if there was one, i would always say, would be wicked. the two hours and 40 minutes of magical sets, costumes, story and music all bring what so many loved on the stage to life on the big screen. you can do anything. i know. how wicked the movie opens in theaters on friday, and defying gravity, the curtain rises on wicked airs at 10:00 tonight. that's followed by nbc bay area news at 11. and if you don't think you can get through the movie without singing, universal pictures is bringing the experience to you. universal announcing that there will now be interactive showings of the

movie musical as well. they'll be offered in theaters starting on christmas day, so respect your fellow moviegoers in the next few weeks and channel your inner elphaba at the sing along screenings could be fun for families there. yeah. okay, so you know, a lot of people dress up for the film. what do you think this is giving a little shout out to one wicked super fan who no doubt will be watching this weekend? our midday producer justin, and his little dog too. and his little dog, who he's not actually green. i've seen him. can he hit the note? that is the question. all right, we'll wait for the sing along. oh, i'm sure he wil. all right. well, good. it'll be a lot of people getting their tickets early for this. and it's going to be rainy, so it's perfect time to go see. yeah. cozy weather at the movies. i think that's fair. especially with how the week is setting up rain wise. right now it's about 41 degrees in san rafael and we're 11 degrees cooler compared to yesterday. let me show you

where we're seeing some of the coldest spots. we're still under that frost advisory and through much of the interior and freeze warnings up to the north bay till about 8 a.m. notice how cold it is. santa rosa 33, pleasanton 38, fremont 38 degrees right now. and of course, we've got this increase in cloud cover. that's the calm for today heading into tomorrow, though, things will change. and here's the reason why we've got our first real significant storm of the season. this atmospheric river lining up out in the pacific. you can see, in fact, that moisture tap. and it looks like we're monitoring a second one as well heading into sunday. but first, let's get you to your forecasted highs for this afternoon. upper 50s, low 60s. aside from the clouds, it's going to be dry. we're going to keep a jacket around because that jacket is going to need a layer of rain gear. once we head into tomorrow, but it's going to depend on where you live. so heading into wednesday and thursday, notice the majority of the system is more focused on areas north of the golden gate bridge. they're going to see the greatest impacts out of that

first initial round of rain. on wednesday. as we enter into that friday, saturday forecast, you'll notice we'll get more of a widespread effect that means more areas south of the golden gate will start to see rain, so the impacts will start to feel more of a rainy feel for the south bay. starting friday to saturday. accumulations. though once we continue to see this active weather pattern heading into sunday, we've got a second atmospheric river that's also going to impact areas in southern california as well into next week, so that active weather pattern is right now looking like it could be anywhere from a moderate to a strong one. if you look at the atmospheric river outlook scale, one being the week with that blue five being extreme, we're kind of mixing in some of this yellow starting on wednesday into thursday. so notice we start to see some of that inching closer towards the south bay by the time we get to friday. so we're talking about a moderate to strong atmospheric river into sunday, though it does look like that second round will be a lot weaker. rainfall totals heading into wednesday and thursday. the highest will be for the north bay. and then you'll notice areas extending south of the golden gate will

start to see that color filling in friday into saturday. so seven inches for the north bay less than three inches for the rest by the time we get to the weekend. but for today, that rain is coming. all right, mike, how are those roads doing? roads are backing up, as you would expect at this time on a tuesday, vianey good conditions as vianey talked about. those will change. so prepare for the rain. that's today is your preparation day over here. the backup is filling in the toll plaza and they're slowing down through richmond out of pinole for westbound 80. typical for the east bay. no surprises for highway 37 or highway four. we do see a little slowing on 242. again, the build through concord typical about this time we still have the disabled vehicle reported on vasco at los vaqueros, but not a big issue. the big issue is west 580. we're down to two lanes at springtown and so that is jamming you up out of the altamont pass in through livermore. there is a new crash south 680 at or around stoneridge. the earlier issues cleared up. and now that crash is more slowing back to you. thanks, mike. well, happening now we will likely see spending for the city of oakland. some

cuts there, some limits on that because city leaders are expected to discuss a $93 million budget shortfall at a meeting later this morning. the deficit is due to a delay in revenue from coliseum cell and department overspending, specifically on public safety, contingency budget plan recommends making cuts to some vital services like fire and police departments. union leaders yesterday held a rally opposing those cuts. today's meeting is scheduled for 930 this morning. a search is underway overnight in the south bay. ahead at 6:00. new details on a hit and run that left a person dead late last night as police continue to search for a suspect. plus. san francisco is going to be open for business again. laying out his plan to move the city forward. the major bay area tech ceo now joining his team. how their partnership could help the cy recoverit
