you're good. -very good. morning. it is sunday, november 24th. a live look outside from our emeryville camera. clear across the bay and cloudy skies

over the city by the bay on a can i just say cold morning i was cold getting out this morning. hopefully you're somewhere warm and safe. thanks so much for starting your sunday morning with us. i'm kira klapper cinthia pimentel has a look at our microclimate forecast. although it was nice to get that break yesterday. see some sunshine. it was really pretty the second half of the day. we did have some showers in the morning but it's okay. it turned out a little bit better. no showers this morning, but look at that santa rosa camera along 101. barely making that exit sign around the in and out. we have some dense fog in some places of the bay and some cooler temperatures, some 30s and 40s. check out dublin also parts of patchy fog there along 680, but we take it to stormranger who is taking a little bit of a break this morning. that sunshine coming through. temperatures in the upper 40s and as well as down here in san jose, i did get some patchy fog coming into the studio, but it's starting to clear out. those showers, though, will come right back in into our late afternoon plans

and continuing for early thanksgiving travel. monday tuesday i'll show you where some of those higher totals are. painting coming up in about 15 minutes. kira. all right, cynthia, thanks. we'll see you soon. well, those drenching rains and flooded roads across the bay area have claimed at least one life. we learned that a person died after attempting to drive through flood waters in guerneville and in santa rosa. police are investigating whether the rains contributed to another drowning. sonoma county was hit hard with those three straight days of heavy rain, and now people there are bracing for the next round of rain. as cynthia said, coming later today. today, in the bay's alyssa goard begins our coverage. well, we've got a break in the rain. sonoma county is still having to contend with flooded driveways soaked in grounds and flooded roads like this one. after three days of heavy rain in the north bay, water is coursing through an overflowing russian river. it's concerning and it's amazing how much rain we got in so little time. some people even using

kayaks to navigate flood waters in guerneville. nearby, close to highway 116 and maze canyon road, a car was spotted in a flooded roadway saturday mornin. the person called in saying they could see that the vehicle was bobbing in the water and that there was a person inside the vehicle. first responders recovered. the man who was in that car, but he was pronounced dead at the scene in santa rosa, firefighters pulled another man's body from piner creek, though police say it's not clear if his death was storm related. sonoma county residents are used to flooding, but several tell us this storm caught them by surprise, bruce trowbridge says at the ranch where he works, the ground is much more saturated than usual for this time of year. nothing's getting absorbe. yeah, which is kind of strange, too, because it was just dry. not more than two weeks ago. it was the ground was dry out there. we were planting some redwood trees and whatnot. so, you know, yeah, i'm concerned about it. this couple stepped outside after being cooped up, avoiding floods the past few

days. we went for our daily exercise and it was a lot of flooding everywhere. so we just did what we could. but yeah, we have a lot of pictures of all the flooding around with more rain and likely more flooding on the way. sonoma county officials are urging people to use caution and to not drive through standing water. alyssa goard today in the bay and we have this dramatic new video, this morning from forestville. this is a vineyard almost completely underwater. this is about ten miles north of sebastopol, about 15 minutes southeast of guerneville. forestville we're talking about and yesterday's break in the rain. we've been talking about gave people across the bay area a moment to deal with the aftermath of the storm. this happened in berkeley. a large tree fell on gilman street blocking the road. crews spent hours clearing the mess. neighbors tell us they're just grateful the damage was kept to a minimum. it's great that no one was underneath and it didn't hit any cars. it didn't hit any

fences or any houses in marin county. this large oak tree fell over onto another big oak, which then fell onto power lines, causing sparks and outages in san anselmo. one neighbor told us he and his wife saw it all happen early yesterday morning. we saw sparks dripping out of the trees and so we're watching it from our deck and all of a sudden, you know, we heard the transformers blow and it was, you know, you're not used to hearing that at night. absolutely. it was like a couple of shotguns going off at least he did go on to tell us this isn't unusual for san anselmo, which has many old growth oak trees. some of them simply do not withstand the winter storms. our nbc bay area app is a great resource to have during this stormy weather. as cynthia said, it is making its way back. just scan the qr code to download it

for free. we just redesigned the weather section. it is more accurate than the weather app already installed on your phone. it gives you access to our storm rangers exclusive radar scans, a listeria outbreak connected to ready to eat meat products has turned deadly. a california infant has died, and at least ten other adults have been sickened in the four state outbreak. the listeria contaminated meat has been traced back to yu sheng food, based in spartanburg, south carolina. one of the retailers selling the product is 99 ranch market, which has several locations in the bay area. the cdc says the true number of people sickened likely is much higher than the number currently reported so far. confirmed cases have been found in california, new york, new jersey and illinois. if you have any of those recalled products in your home, throw them away immediately. experts say you should clean any surfaces that touched them because the bacteria can spread to other

foods. oakland city council president nikki fortunato bass is declaring victory in her bid to become alameda county supervisor, while the race is still too close to be called. bass says the other top contender, john borders, called her to concede. the two are divided by just 415 votes, according to the latest numbers, but nearly 5000 ballots still need to be counted. if bass does win the seat, you might know this by now. oakland will have to elect a new city council president, who will then act as interim mayor because of the recall of oakland mayor sheng thao. in her victory message, bass wrote, quote, this victory belongs to all of us, the people who believed in a vision for an alameda county that prioritizes community equity and opportunity for everyone. if you live in or near oakland, you may have heard this last night. take a look. a lot of people on social media

talking about these fireworks that started going off around 10 p.m. the person who took this video tells us the booms went on for at least five entire minutes. we still have calls out to police since last night, and the fire department for more information. we do not believe it was an official show put on by oakland. an unexpected result of this week's atmospheric river chinook salmon spotted in big numbers in south bay creeks today in the bay's marianne favro. reports from campbell look with a look at why it's such a promising sign. i'm here just a couple of blocks from downtown campbell, where these salmon have become quite an attraction with people pulling over in their cars or even on their bikes to take pictures of the tenacious fish. this chinook salmon is trying desperately to make his way up los gatos creek, something you don't always see in a metropolitan area. i was driving by on campbell avenue,

and i saw people standing at the bridge parked and came over to see what they were seeing. i love it, i love what i'm seeing, i love the fact the salmon are here. i love the fact that people are excited about it. the salmon weren't hard to spot. some of them were more than 45in long. we're looking at the fish swimming up the stream here and they're jumping up over this like kind of like waterfall sort of thing. and they're really big and they're like this big and they have like red bottoms. it's really cool. volunteers with the south bay clean creeks coalition say in some areas of the creek where they usually only see 3 to 6 salmon, they spotted 30. in the last 11 years that we've been doing this, i've never seen this many fish. so we're super excited because this could be that time where we're starting to see the fish take on and increase their numbers significantly. what he's not excited about is that despite volunteers posting no fishing signs, people are still trying to catch the salmon and what we're trying to do is just educate the public that you cannot be fishing now. it's a no

fishing time. so we put up signs throughout the los gatos creek area and on the main stem of the guadalupe. and still we're having people that are coming in and poaching the fish. he says one person even made a makeshift spear, while others used shopping carts to try to catch the salmon. but most people are just taking photos as they watch the salmon desperately try to jump several feet up this mini waterfall. you can hear the crowd cheer when one makes it. oh, that was nice. a lesson in determination and perseverance from a fish. the south bay clean creeks coalition is working on a project to help make it easier for these salmon to swim upstream in this area in the future. in campbell, marianne favro nbc, bay area news. ten past the hour. we have much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up. we take you live to washgton, d.c. forin

incoming trump administration. longtime supporters, aides and members of congress. so far have been named to posts by the president elect. please join me in welcoming kristen welker, moderator of meet the press. hi, kristen, great to see you. this morning. nbc news. this is sort of tangentially related. nbc news is reporting that donald trump plans to sign a flurry of executive actions within hours of retaking the white house. what can you tell us about his day one priorities, kyra. great to be with you. one aide saying it's going to be like nothing you've ever seen before. that's a direct quote. there will be a range of different executive orders, including ones that relate to reproductive rights. for example, there's one that will roll back reimbursements for those who are in the military who travel to get abortions. some will relate to other modes of health care, and

then a lot of them are going to be focused on the border, illegal immigration. that's obviously really the centerpiece of his campaign. and it comes amid president elect trump saying that on day one, he wants to start working on his plan to deport the millions of people who are here illegally. i, of course, had a chance to ask him about that several weeks ago. how much would it cost? what would it look like? he said there is no price tag. he said. you just have to do it. that was his language. so really notable. the question, of course, when you're talking about executive actions, kyra, will they actually stay in place or will they face legal challenges? will they get tied up in the courts as so often happens? so you can roll out a bunch of executive actions, and if they get blocked, they don't go very far. so we'll have to see how it all unfolds. but right now, that's the plan on day one for president elect trump. what about two months? almost to the day. we'll see. christian, thank you so much for that insight and happy thanksgiving. we hope you join christian for this

morning's meet the press. she will have exclusive interviews with senator elect adam schiff of california, as well as senator eric schmitt of missouri. if you just stick right here with us for today in the bay, meet the press is on at 8 a.m, right after this newscast and coming up in about 30 minutes from now, we'll talk to nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston for our weekly segment. we'll take a look at governor newsom and whether he is expected to run in 2028 or what the rumblings are surrounding that. well, as we reported to you yesterday morning, hundreds of san francisco families got a little extra help to make their thanksgiving meal a reality. the walkup law firm partnered with eight different schools for a free turkey giveaway at lowell high school. families in need were given vouchers ahead of time, and they got to come yesterday to collect their free turkey. the law firm also gave out coupons to purchase other fixings for the thanksgiving meal. you put something in their minds about it's not just about

us individually, it's about all of us collectively and the more that we can be present with each other, connect with each other. and thanksgiving is a time where we cook together, eat together, and bond together. i think these are really some essential values to bringing them back to a community. student volunteers from lowell high school were also there to help distribute the turkeys. well, it is a dream come true for one south bay youth football team. they have qualified for the pop warner super bowl in orlando, florida, and they need help getting there. san jose's coyote creek u14 football team was undefeated this season. then they went on to win the bay area pop warner championships as well as the pacific northwest regional championship. now they are headed to the super bowl 3000 miles away. but the cost to go are so significant, $40,000 for the team. so they set up a

gofundme page trying to reach their financial goal. two of the team members spoke to our marcus washington about reaching that goal. not all of us come from like wealthy homes, so it's going to be pretty hard to get everyone to raise enough money to get there. right now, if you went to coyote creek youth football and went to the bio on instagram, there's a gofundme link and it would be much appreciated if a lot of people could send money so we could potentially get to florida. the team is continuing to raise money right now. they have raised more than $6,000 but need more before the game. it is set for december 7th, so time is ticking. could there be a better gift than the gift of life? we have a chance for you to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic nbc show friends, while also helping out the red cross in the spirit of friendsgiving, the red cross is offering two pairs of socks to donors one for you, one to share

with a friend that turkey is based on the love of the beloved episode where monica dons the turkey on her head and chandler laughs and tells her he loves her accidentally. blood and platelet supply tends to drop during the holidays when people can't donate because they're sick or they're traveling. the director of the red cross blood services says everyone can find a why for donating. for him, it was more time with his grandmothers who battled cancer. but i was given was the gift of time and i really reflect on that, especially during the holiday season, because, you know, it was extra holidays that i was able to spend with both of my grandmothers, really, because of the generosity of donors that never got to meet them. the red cross, friendsgiving, blood drive runs now through december 8th. sign up for your socks and donation through the red cross app or red cross dot org slash friends, or call 800 red cross and take a look at this. you don't need four wheels, you only

need two. the drive thru light show at san jose's history park is about to become a bike only show. this is video from last year's drive thru display at history park, but today no cars allowed. the whole experience will be open to bikes for one night only. tickets sold online, $10 to join, $20 for a family pass. the event runs from 6 to 9 tonight with food trucks and snacks included. oh, i love those drive thrus and hopefully the rain will stave off for bicyclists tonight. cynthia is here with hope so man, i wish my dogs could ride bikes so we could go tonight. maybe not, although they're pretty pretty big. yeah, yeah, it's going to be a mix of what we see today. and out the door right now we have sunshine through the south and the east of the bay, but you drive up to petaluma, santa rosa, even down into san rafael. that's where we're seeing some of the fog as we start to dry out a little bit. now, this is what we can expect for the first

half of the day. storm ranger, our mobile doppler radar. taking a break, we will see the first half of the day trending mostly dry temperatures, similar to what we had yesterday. 50s and 60s around the bay 62. san jose 59. san francisco. similar feel up there in wine country. so those afternoon showers. let's help you time them hour by hour as people get busy here ahead of a long week ahead, we see that sunshine a better chance for people to kind of take a breather. maybe still in cleanup mode, but we have the rain once again. models are painting it into the early afternoon hours, the activity still staying up there towards the north. we could see right there those circles of the darker orange. some isolated thunderstorms as well. and as i take it into the evening hours for that ride along down there in san jose, we could see mostly cloudy skies. still that rain trending northward into our late evening plans. but we do have more heavier storms on the way. this time, though, focusing that

atmospheric river chance to the central coast and south so that could impact your plans. if you're traveling down to santa barbara, la. even along parts of five or the 99 heading into central california. so i want to help you time this out. what we're seeing right now with the models, we also see those purples on your screen for the cierra. if you're going to tahoe for the holiday, we go on into tomorrow morning seeing some showers. if you still have to go to work, i'm right there with you. we're going to see the rain coming in for the evening time as well, and then really starting to push on south into the central coast as we take it on into tuesday. so hopefully that will start our drying trend here. tuesday, wednesday and even thursday as we go on into thanksgiving. so that's what we're going to be thankful for. a dry thanksgiving. but possibility of some showers late on friday into saturday as people come back from those holiday plans. but that's still a ways out. let's take a look at that 7-day forecast. three chances of rain, early week, 50s and 60s. but then we trend

drier. see more of those sun icons and even bump up the temperatures a little bit. second half of the week san francisco if you've got friends coming in, make sure they're bringing maybe a rain jacket, the umbrella and some layers as we go on through the city. there similar pattern showers to start and then some sunshine towards the end of the week. love that sunshine. it's coming cynthia. thanks 21 past the hour. we have much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, a big time comeback leads to another victory by cal over stanford. we have highlights from the game winning drive in the 127th edition of the big game. sports is next

as you drive over into livermore. cooler temperatures there too. in the upper 30s. but look at the top half of the map and no showers this morning, but it is the fog that we're dealing with. very dense fog right now through parts of santa rosa down into southern marin. so aside from the localized flooding that we saw this week, the fog is another thing that you'll have to deal with this morning. but as we go on into the afternoon, we should see a mostly sunny day. those showers will come rolling back in, though, once again into our evening, continuing for our travel day here on monday tuesday. but look towards thanksgiving. it's looking dry. i'll show you the full 7-day forecast coming up in about ten minutes. kara. back to you, cynthia. thanks. people across the bay area did enjoy that break from the rain yesterday to clean up after three straight days of storms, but we have learned that the flooding has contributed to at least one death in the north bay. in guerneville, residents resorted to using kayaks to navigate the flood waters. one car was spotted submerged in a flooded roadway near highway 116

and maze canyon road. first responders say they recovered the body of a man from inside that car, and about 20 miles away in santa rosa, firefighters pulled another man's body from piner creek. police are looking into whether the storm caused his death. other residents tell us they don't remember it being this wet this early in the season. nothing's getting absorbed yet, which is kind of strange too, because it was just dry not more than two weeks ago. it was the ground was dry out there. we were planting some redwood trees and whatnot. so, you know, yeah, i'm concerned about it. with more rain and likely more flooding on the way, sonoma county officials are urging people to use caution and not drive through standing water in marin county. a large oak tree fell over onto another big oak, which then fell onto power lines, causing sparks and outages in san anselmo. one neighbor told us he and his wife saw it all happen early yesterday morning. we saw sparks

and advice. organizers said while everyone was welcome, it was intended to reach farmworkers who often struggle to get adequate health care for various reasons. farm workers and folks in the community have struggled to get access to health services and to connect with our our systems of care. so it's all about making these things accessible and helping get information and resources into into folks hands here on the coast side. and particularly on the farms, people can be a little bit separated from the other resource systems and services that are generally available. california life sciences put on the health fair in partnership with glaxosmithkline, genentech, and the county of san mateo, as well as allies. this is the third year for the event. happening today, two east bay organizations are coming together to host their second annual friendsgiving, all for the lgbtq community. the groups good vibes and color block are

sunday of the month. we are starting off mostly clear down here in the south bay. there are some areas where we're watching a little bit of that patchy fog, but overall a gorgeous sunrise up there towards the north bay. we are finding some areas of dense fog, mainly towards novato. petaluma right now, the sun peeking through over san rafael 101. so that's the picture for at least the first half of the day. we are going to see mostly sunny skies taking it

into people running errands out the door, finalizing those plans. but then into the afternoon it could be time to come back inside as we track another chance of some spotty showers, we take it on into 4:00. we do see those rain possibilities popping up into parts of marin, up there in napa and sonoma counties continuing, if we have any evening plans tracking a little bit into the east bay and san francisco peninsula and into the south bay, we could just be in for a cloudy night. now, here's what's going to happen for thanksgiving week. we are going to be talking about that rain and the snow impacting travel here throughout the state. better chance of clearing out by wednesday as we finalize those plans. and a dry thanksgiving. that's what we're thankful for this holiday season. now in the last forecast, we talked about the showers impacting the central coast, but if you're headed the other way, there is some unsettled weather up into the pacific northwest. and those showers along snow showers along the sierra where there will be a

winter storm warning. so take note of that. i want to bring it down to street level here and help us plan our monday. maybe you still have to go to the office, prepare for some slick roads and that continues through at least the first half of the day, where we become a little bit more spotty into the evening plans and possibly start to lift those showers out of here as we get on into tuesday. now, if you're headed otherwhere into the country, prepare for some delays as we see right now, some of those showers and snow trekking towards parts of the central part of the country, continuing into the upper south. there, as we go on into cook springs baker summit. those are some fun names here. prepare for some rain and snow. so pack those jackets and just keep an eye on the forecast wherever you're going. seven day forecast looks like this here though, in san francisco along the peninsula. chance of rain three out of seven. right now for the first half of the week. cool temperatures as well. but then into the second half we bring more of those sunshine icons on there and even bump up the

thanksgiving, cyber monday and travel tuesday, which is the following day, tuesday, december 3rd. even though that's only three weeks ahead of christmas eve, there are said to have some great deals. while airfare is holding steady next week. travel site booking.com is planning to cut some lodging prices by as much as 50%. discounts on rental cars as well as attractions and on board credits for people going on cruises. but the experts say you have to commit when you see the deal. so for really anyone planning a trip, you got to have a game plan, pick a destination, preferred travel dates, set a budget so you're not scrambling when all these great deals drop. flexibility. a big plus too. so if you're open to shifting your dates or maybe a different destination, you can sometimes find even better discounts. travel experts are also seeing a trend in intergenerational travel. 80% of baby boomers

surveyed said they are willing to pay for their kids to travel with them, and almost as many said they'd be willing to pay for their grandkids as well. wo. back here locally, the controversy surrounding san jose state's women's volleyball team continues. sjsu has received a first round bye in the mountain west conference tournament. that position sets up a potential semifinal match between the spartans and one of its conference rivals, which initially refused to play the team during the first regular season. this all stems from reports there is a transgender player on the spartans. that player has not yet come out publicly. five teams forfeited. rather than play the spartans. two of those teams are set to play in the tournament wednesday. the winner is scheduled to face the spartans friday. san jose state is still waiting to hear if the player in question is eligible to compete. turning now to last week, when california governor gavin newsom

traveled to fresno county to learn why voters there supported donald trump in the 2024 presidential election. after voting democratic since 2008, newsom has taken several similar fact finding trips since his 2018 gubernatorial campaign. newsom is not eligible to run for governor for a third term in 2026, but he is eligible to run for president in 2028. nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston is here. this sounds so far away, i don't even want to think about how old my little boys are going to be in 2028, but here we go. is newsom's curiosity more than just that? oh, let me think about that. yes. of course. look, kira, we're in this period. get there yet? yeah, i know. the 2024 election is way back in the rearview mirror. way back. it's three weeks ago. it's gone, it's gone. we're in a period known as the silent primary. the silent primary is when people like gavin newsom run around the country listening. on the one

hand, doling out campaign amounts of funds to the. on the other hand, because the two go together. what? what's going on? how can i help? what does it mean to me? this is all part of this period where not only newsom, but about a dozen or so other democrats, prominent democrats, are doing the same thing. it's fascinating. so give me an idea. if you can, about newsom's involvement in national politics. he he's been the mayor of san francisco. he's been the lieutenant governor now the governor. what is he doing nationally? it's big time. it's big time. look, since 2022 especially, he's been going around the country. look, some of this goes back to the very famous or infamous dobbs decision. that's the one that turned over abortion legislation to the states. newsom went around to seven states at that point that were considering abortion votes by by the people. and he put up billboards encouraging people to support for choice and this is just a

little small part of it. he has doled out hundreds of thousands of dollars to gubernatorial candidates, to senatorial candidates, even to congressional candidates all across the country. you know what you spend money, you get something back. he has a rolodex with 11 million names. that's 11 million people he can contact like that. in terms of campaign fundraising. well, that's a perfect tee up, because i was going to ask if he even has the wherewithal to take on president trump and the maga circuit. they have a lot of money. does he have the money, the capability? but it sounds like potentially he does. millions raised millions spent millions in the campaign coffers. but but more than that, newsom has taken on trump before. during the first four year term, california sued the trump government 123 times, won many of those suits dealing with with the immigrants, dealing with the environment, all these critical issues to california and what newsom believes are critical to the nation as well, won many of

those things. so. so look, dealing with with trump is nothing to new newsom, and he's not afraid to go out there and muscle in and say, look, you can't. and now they're worried about things like daca. what's going to happen there. they're worried about things like are you going to roll back the environmental regulations that we have in california leading the nation? i'm here. newsom says, to fight that and keep california safe and the nation, that's his that's his deal. and so he's really developing this very big national profile. and boy, when you talk about polar opposites, trump and newsom. yeah indeed. what a matchup. all right 2028. we'll see you then larry. around the corner. don't say that. happy thanksgiving. good to see you. 52 past the hour. up next a quick look at the top stories, including the north bay finally drying out after three straight days of rain. there's

on this sunday morning, and we have learned that the flooding of the rains over the last few days has contributed to at least one death in the north bay. in guerneville, residents resorted to using kayaks you see there to navigate the flood waters. one car was spotted submerged in a flooded roadway. first responders say they recovered the body of a man from inside that car. and in santa rosa, about 20 miles from guerneville,

firefighters pulled another man's body from piner creek. police are looking into whether the storm caused his death or contributed to it. other residents tell us they do not remember it being this wet so early in the season. nothing's getting absorbed yet, which is kind of strange too, because it was just dry not more than two weeks ago. it was the ground was dry out there. we were planting some redwood trees and whatnot. so, you know, yeah, i'm concerned about it. more rain headed our way later today. potentially more flooding. sonoma county officials are urging people to use caution, not driving through standing water. don't even attempt it. our nbc bay area app is a great resource to have during this stormy weather. you can scan that qr code, download it for free. we just redesigned the weather section. it's more accurate than the weather app on your phone, gives you access to our storm ranger and its exclusive radar. happening today in oakland. one restaurant helping make the season a little

brighter. the home of chicken and waffles is hosting a turkey food drive. community members across oakland, helped by donating trimmings for turkeys. the food drive is a first come, first serve basis. it starts at nine this morning on fourth and alice street, and we continue to work to make sure everyone has food on the table this holiday season. for the 15th year, our nourishing neighbors food drive continues. we've partnered with safeway. it runs through christmas day. the next time you're at the checkout at safeway or andronico's, you can donate $10 at checkout. that money will provide 20 meals to families in need. of course, you can donate more, but $10 is the general amount. all right. cynthia has one last look at the forecast before we go. we're seeing some patchy fog hanging around the bay. the first half of it will be sunny, and we'll get those showers coming in later on tonight. mostly golden gate north, but the showers and the storm will come in from the south tomorrow on into tuesday.
