lingers across the bay area. here's a live look outside at the san jose skyline. meteorologist kari hall timing out our thanksgiving week forecast. plus, making it in the bay could get even harder. pg&e pushing for another rate hike.

the proposed increase in monthly bills, which could soon affect your bottom line. plus, so far, we're remaining in california at the low level. we do actually see other parts of the united states are starting to see an increase, which is expected ensuring a healthy holiday season as you look forward to family gatherings, we're taking a look at covid, flu and rsv outlook. this is today in the bay. good tuesday morning to you. thanks for starting your day with us i'm laura garcia. and i'm marcus washington. a lot to talk about this morning. but first let's get you caught up on that forecast. i was looking ahead. kari. i'm kind of excited that we get a little break. we're getting a break from the rain, but it's also going to be cold over these next few days. and there's still some rain lingering across parts of the region. so as we get a look at stormranger, we are all clear for much of the south bay right now, but still notice those

lingering showers in the north bay around the santa rosa area just south. and we're also seeing a lot of rain south of the bay area, as of much of the central coast and parts of socal gets some rain as well as snow as you go up in elevation. so that's going to be the case as we go throughout the day. temperature wise, we're headed for the upper 50s and low 60s. overall, it's going to be a cool and mostly cloudy day with some peeks of sunshine here and there. concord will see a high of 62. there, 60 in hayward and also upper 50s and low 60s for the peninsula into san francisco, 58 degrees for the outer sunset and in the north bay in the upper 50s and low 60s there as well. so we'll talk about the changes ahead. mike, you were looking at an incident on the bay bridge. yeah, i was watching. there's a slowdown. there was a disabled vehicle and your slow lane reportedly blocked around treasure island. although over the last few minutes, i saw some flashing lights moving across into san francisco. you see the traffic bunching up there? i believe they're still trying to get that

vehicle completely off the bridge. that's the reason for a little slowing on the decline in toward the first san francisco exit. again, that's westbound. so at that point, it's the upper deck getting into the city. the rest of the bay shows a lighter volume of traffic that road weather index still showing the green, where there's definitely some damp and slicker roadways at present in many parts of the bay. we're watching for that, but we're expecting the lighter volume of traffic through the area. the rain that carries talking about might affect folks heading to the southern california, and also over toward the sierra will give you more updates on that and more details coming up. back to you. thanks, mike. well, as we move into our season of holiday travel and gatherings, we shouldn't let our guards down. when it comes to the respiratory virus season. and flu was once our main worry, but now there are a number of viruses to keep track of. today in the bay's kris sanchez joining us from the newsroom with a look at the big picture here kris. good morning to you marcus and laura. so the good news is that of the three big respiratory viruses that usually surge during this time of year, mostly we are talking about low numbers, not just in california, but also nationwide, which will

matter if you are hopping on a plane. here's the big picture. flu is low, but rising in california and low across the u.s, covid low in california and stable or declining across the country. respiratory syncytial virus, or rsv, which is most dangerous for babies and elderly folks, is rising in california, but only elevated in the south and in the east. this is all according to data from the california department of public health and the cdc. the advice is still to mask up if you are gathering with someone vulnerable, or if you are headed into a crowded setting like an airport or an airplane, and you don't know how everybody else is feeling a while. many bay area counties are ordering their health care workers to mask up when they are providing patient care. there are no such orders for regular folks like us, but sonoma county's interim health officer says you have to do what's right for you and for your family. people have to realize you know, as we gather

for the holidays, as we come indoors, because it's colder, we're going to share our germs. it's inevitable. so any little thing that we can do, particularly even in family gatherings, if you have members of your family who are particularly vulnerable either either because they're elderly or because they have an immunosuppression, you know, their immune system doesn't work well. it's really important to remember that and try to protect those people as much as possible. another way to protect the people around you is to get vaccinated. the cdc recommends flu and covid vaccination, particularly for children five and under. adults 65 and older. for pregnant women and all people with underlying health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, asthma or who, as the doctor says, are immunocompromised. while it is too late to boost your immunity through vaccines in time for thanksgiving, it is not too early to start thinking about christmas, hanukkah, new year's celebrations, and every

festivity that comes ahead. laura. they're all coming. thank you very much. 505 right now. vice president kamala harris is in san francisco this morning. she's continuing the vacation she started in hawaii. while it hasn't even been a month since she conceded to president elect donald trump, the speculation already pretty hot about her future. some are thinking it may be another run at the white house or for the governor's mansion here in california. political experts say it is a huge decision for harris. which path do i want? a path where i'm likely to succeed the governorship. a path that would be the top office in the world. the presidency, but much less of a guarantee with that choice. kamala harris is a brilliant, brilliant person, and she's a wonderful politician. she would make a fantastic governor. one cannot lose a presidential race. and then become the leader of a party. sadly, run for governor would be two years from now.

berkeley igs poll says nearly half of california voters would be very or somewhat likely to support her candidacy. turning now to the legal victory for president elect donald trump, his election interference case has been dismissed. this all comes after special counsel jack smith asked the judge to toss the filing. due to that long standing justice department policy, which bars the prosecution of a sitting president. the judge in the case agreed to do so without prejudice. smith also asked a judge to throw out the appeal of trump's classified documents. prosecution. however, he is requesting charges against two co-defendants in that case be allowed to proceed. don't get too comfortable with your current gas and power rates. it's about to get even harder to make it in the bay. that's because the bay area news group reports pg&e is seeking another rate hike. as soon as the start of next year. utility says the money is needed to meet added demand for new housing and development projects. if regulators approve the plans, customers would see an average increase of more than $4 a month. consumer advocates point

out pg&e rates are already rising faster than the rate of inflation. happening today, santa clara valley water agency leaders will debate a new homeless encampment policy. the water resource protection zones ordinance is a culmination of a series of feedback sessions meant to devise new strategies to tackle encampments along creeks and waterways. at one point, directors they considered issuing steep fines or even jailing violators up to 30 days. supporters argue encampments generate trash and hazardous material that pollute water and threaten endangered species. that agency also is concerned about worker safety. now to a live look at sfo today. tomorrow and sunday are the three busiest days of the thanksgiving thanksgiving holiday travel season. across the u.s, the tsa forecast more than 18 million people will fly between now and next monday. that's a 6% increase over the same period last year. and if your thanksgiving plans include a trip to the sierra, most ski

resorts have received more than a foot of snow since last week. there's still more snow in the forecast as well, but drivers are dealing with safer road conditions and no chain requirements along highway 50. yesterday, it was a lot of fun that could be found even without the skis and snowboards. we finally like, you know, find the spot. and we were like, yeah, i think it was enough, you know? it's enough space here so he can slide. he's he's actually enjoying it. the cierra is expected to be dry and cold by thanksgiving day. it's always cute when you see families pull to the side of the road and find a little hill and slide on down. i know the old school days. i remember that not so much in the bay area though. no snow here, but if you are traveling that direction, there's still some snow coming down. i wanted to show you this system that brought us some rain and is still bringing some spotty showers to the bay area is producing some snow for much of the sierra. it's mainly from south lake tahoe on southward.

if you're going to north lake in that area, the snow showers are a lot lighter. this is a live look at palisades tahoe this morning where we can see it looks fairly quiet. a fresh coating of some light snow coming down, and it will continue for the next few hours. but then by tomorrow it's going to be chilly. but all dry. and thanksgiving day we're looking at high temperatures in the low 40s. that's after starting out in the teens. so make sure you're packing those extra layers for that area. now we're going to see this winter storm warning in effect until 4 a.m. tomorrow. so there's still the possibility that there may be some chain controls and road closures. and it looks like beyond that point, we are going to see our weather improving. but as far as snow, there is only about 1 to 2in of additional snowfall. and this takes us all the way through next week where we're not expecting any more snow coming down. so that's kind of the downside. but i guess the upside is that you won't have many issues getting to the sierra and

mike, if you're filling up this morning, where can we find those lower prices? yeah. you don't want to run out of gas if you're heading through the sierra. best price in the bay. this top ten worthy. it's the alameda county. of course we have 349 in livermore at marathon on home street today. the south bay, santa clara's best is in the middle here. it's three. 77 at platinum gas on washington street and in the city. san francisco's low is 379. make it quick and head to double time on mission street. you can check all those prices as they change. or maybe you're heading to a different area. this over this holiday. we're looking at gasbuddy.com on the roadway. we're looking at lighter traffic volume overall. and now that the rain has eased up. better conditions, but still slick in many spots. so watch where those green highlighting those puddling and ponding may be at some intersections as well. and the bay bridge. we still have a slower drive traveling across into the city. i believe they've got that cleared. the disabled vehicle cleared. their crews have cleared from their overnight road work. yes, they were working in the drizzle there as well, but they're clear

back to you. all right. thanks, mike. 511 right now, saving on costs and cutting down on your travel time. in the bay, the new tech tool you can use to help you with your holiday plans. and walmart's latest and biggest company to start scaling back die. and it was a song of the summer that had everyone saying they like us. they not like us. well, you know, stick around because we actually have more on why that popularity of that song is the basis of a recent legal acti

right now at 514, we are taking a live look at san rafael this morning. cloudy with some light showers. we will see the rain linger through about 8:00 and the rest of the day it's mostly cloudy with some peeks of sunshine and overall a cool day as our highs only hit the upper 50s. looking ahead, we do have more cool weather, but much drier. we'll take a look ahead to thanksgiving coming up and i'm still focusing part of my attention on the bay bridge. getting into san francisco. we still have slower sensors, sensor reads, and they have not cleared. the incident reported a disabled vehicle heading into the city right where the arrow is. that's the approach to the city, and there are slower sensors between treasure island and the first exit. i believe they're trying to get a disabled vehicle. clear. we'll give you progress coming up. well good morning. very happy tuesday to you. the dow hit a new record monday. but markets kind of

rattled overnight over something incoming. president trump posted on social media. we'll talk more about that in a minute. the feds are going to send less money to intel than intel might like under the chips bill. still, a lot like 8 billion, but less because washington's going to subtract about a half a billion. it already paid intel for chips for the military. starbucks apparently has been hit by a ransomware attack that's affecting its online employee scheduling system. so they're doing it the old fashioned way on paper. kohl's has a new ceo. he's coming from michael's, the arts and crafts store. i don't know if you've been to a michael's lately, but they've made improvements, including faster checkout. kohl's hoping ashley buchanan will help them find their footing. he'll be kohl's third ceo in five years. okay. foreign markets lower this morning after president elect trump said he would put a 25% tariff on anything made in canada or mexico in addition to planned tariffs on china. in the

case of canada and mexico, that's higher prices for everything from lumber to food to car parts to medical product. mexico is one of the largest exporters of medical products. trump says canada and mexico need to crack down on smuggling of drugs. now, those tariffs would violate the spirit of the usmca deal. that deal that the first trump administration insisted on to replace the nafta deal with mexico and canada. the electric car maker rivian will get billions in government loans to build its plant in georgia. the california based company has been struggling partly because it's having trouble sourcing parts, something tariffs would make worse. these loans are nothing new. it's the same government money that got tesla off the ground, though. tesla got a lot less. and walmart says it's backing off its d e i program diversity equity and inclusion. other companies tractor supply harley davidson, molson coors among them have

done the same. walmart says it will drop out of some of the indices that measure equal opportunity will no longer count race as a factor when sourcing goods, and will rethink its contributions to pride efforts. now, this comes as an activist investor gets very active in in what's going on with lowe's. the hardware store dropped its dei program. one of the things they forbade was employee research groups or resource groups. ergs, groups like, you know, asian american women who work there or even veterans groups not allowed any longer. everything at lowe's. interesting. all right. thanks, scott. 518 for you this morning. you know, because your time is valuable. google says that the latest technology is making inroads in helping ease the crunch around the holidays. so that includes most popular and least popular times for places like post office, gas stations and grocery stores. not only that, but there are better and worse times to book those holiday flights. generally, the start of the week brings the

cheapest fares, but if you're thinking about buying an airline ticket this friday to save, it might pay off. search trends for things like black friday deals has really popped up in the flight space, so if you're maybe looking to see where you can get some deals on flights for the holiday season, some airlines may be offering some black friday deals for you to take a look at. they also recommend using the latest ai tools for travel tips and advice. drake is raising the stakes in his feud with fellow rap superstar kendrick lamar. in a new filing, his legal team accuses universal music group of falsely pumping up the popularity of lamar's hit diss track not like us and inflating the number of plays on spotify. the filing asks for each artist's label to preserve any information in the event of a lawsuit. umg did issue a response, calling the allegations offensive and untrue. trending for you this morning. dictionary.com

announcing the annual word of the year. okay, so here it goes. among the contenders brain rot and brat. but one stood out among the rest. and you could say it's very mindful. you see how i do my makeup for work? very demure, very mindful, very cute, very demure. the demure is the official word of 2024, made popular by tiktoker jules lebrun, whose phrase was featured in a series of viral videos made between january and september of this year. dictionary.com says it saw a 12%, a 1,200% increase in the word demure online. the word is characterized as modesty or reserve. a second definition defines it as affectionately sober or sedate demure. it's so funny when you see people like, i'm very demure, i'm very cutesy. and then they have on like these cutout outfits and you're like, that's not demure, not demure, you know, skippity on their skippity skippity toilet, i don't know. all right,

whatever the kids are saying nowadays, kari kari and i sometimes go through decoding sessions to figure out what kids are saying, to figure it out. now that we have teenagers, it's like, oh my goodness, we got the traffic center, the weather center and decoding center. yea. all right. so we're starting out this morning with some very demure weather, very mindful of the temperatures that you'll see out there. it's in the low 50s as you're stepping out in walnut creek. it's 54 in palo alto and in san jose 56 degrees. now taking a look at storm ranger mobile doppler radar. it's still not letting up for the north bay just yet. while we are starting to see the rain easing up elsewhere. going to be tracking some wet weather for your morning commute through marin county. parts of southern napa county, as well as in san francisco and near the coast in pacifica and extending across the bay to the richmond area. but we've also been tracking all of the rain changing over to snow as you go up in elevation

and parts of the sierra still seeing that snow coming down. although the rain has been spotty, we do have the wet roads out there as you're driving through the tri-valley looking at 580 in dublin, 52 degrees, the temperature at 8:00, and notice all of the cloud cover that we will see today with only some peeks of sunshine going into the afternoon. so that's going to keep those temperatures down. we're only going to make it up to 59 in dublin, oakland today 60 degrees and novato up to 60 today. and it only gets slightly warmer over the next few days. the big change that we'll have will be our overnight temperatures. look at what we'll wake up to tomorrow. so this morning it's in the 50s tomorrow morning. a lot of us are going to be in the 30s and just a degree above freezing in clear lake and in santa rosa, 34 degrees, but even colder, heading towards our thanksgiving morning, where we will start out with some frosty conditions. even san jose will drop down to 36 degrees. well, at least it

will be dry. and that's what we're expecting over the next several days, even into the weekend, we may see some spotty showers farther south, but even that looks like it's kind of backing off on that resolution as we take a look at our computer models. so it looks pretty dry for our thanksgiving holiday into the weekend. it's just going to be cold in the mornings with those lows down into the mid 30s. and mike, you're seeing the bay bridge in recovery mode now. yeah. traffic not so demure. so be mindful. there's some slowing. they did clear the vehicle off on the san francisco side, but not before they had to break traffic enough to cause that ripple. so from treasure island this backup is rippling back along the area, past the tower and then not really affecting the incline, but that's blending in with a little more traffic. we should have plenty of time for this to recover before the build comes over from the east bay, with lighter volume of traffic expected today. still some slick spots that kari talking about 101 northbound into nevada. that crash did clear as well after a traffic break, and we're looking

at the rest of the bay with lighter traffic. even out of the altamont pass, there's a tiny bit of brake tapping. back to you. good to know. thanks, mike. a unique effort to fight climate change from the sky. next on today in the bay, meteorologist kari hall shows us the ♪ i'm on my way ♪ ♪ home sweet home ♪ there's no place like the road home. receive a $5,500 bonus on a new 2024 audi q5 plug-in hybrid during the season of audi sales event.

the sky. they're performing aerial seeding to plant tens of thousands of mangrove seeds in hard to reach areas. this is an effort with the surfrider foundation, a nonprofit group that works to protect our oceans. mangroves are a great tool to fight climate change because they absorb greenhouse gases and act as natural barriers against erosion. we work to the nature based solution. we're working to mangrove restoration, sand dune restoration around the united states or here in puerto rico. and we're working to the different ecosystem to teaching and learning for the community about the restore these ecosystems. the program manager in puerto rico tells us that much of the mangrove ecosystems was lost due to illegal development. and hurricane maria in 2017. so if you want to learn more about this project and how to get involved, search for this story on our website, nbcbayarea.com and click on the climate crisis tab. we'll check it out. thanks, kari. next here on today in the bay the top

stories we're following, including the last minute move in a fight over a transgender volleyball player at san jose state. the new legal action. nine players are now taking. i'm ginger conejero saab are live at sfo this morning on one of the busiest days to travel this thanksgiving holiday. up ahead, we'll give you a live look at terminal two here at sfo, where wait times are manageable. but just in case they aren't. we'll tell you how to make the

30. the rush is on. we're getting you ready for one of the busiest days of the holiday travel season. as millions prepare to hit the roads and skies. we have live team coverage on the record breaking travel week ahead. plus, from the tsa lines to the grocery aisles, the busy period for grocery stores ahead of thanksgiving. we're live with more on what you need to know if you haven't finished that shopping. also, the simple ways you can help those trying to make it in the bay and growing calls to resign. the local leaders calling on the san mateo county sheriff to step down after unanimously voting on a no confidence resolution. this is today in the bay. good morning. i'm marcus washington, and i'm laura garcia. first, millions expected to travel for the holidays. we've got live team coverage this morning. our ginger conejero saab is at sfo with more on the record number

of travelers expected this year. our mike inouye is tracking that commute for you. but first let's check in with meteorologist kari hall. she's tracking that forecast for us. and how is it looking, kari. it's looking better now. we are still watching two big storm systems. one is on the west, the other one is on the east. and the one that we're seeing right now is winding down, but still heading farther to the south. and that's going to give us some rain. if you're traveling down i-5 or 101. and we're also seeing some rain and snow showers moving into the rockies while out east, we are seeing this cold front, this storm system continuing to push into the northeast, but it's not causing any delays as of now. so travel delays are looking pretty good. we're not seeing any at any of the major airports as of now, so hopefully it stays that way. i know it's going to be a busy day, but let me show you what to pack here. if you're going to minneapolis. the high temperature today, 29 degrees, chicago 40. and just a

heads up that if you are going to some of those area spots like chicago around thanksgiving is only going to see highs in the 20s, lows in the teens, this cold air is blasting farther off towards the east, and we're going to see much of the country in a deep freeze over the next several days. but here out west, we're still looking at some mild weather, and that's what we're expecting going into our thanksgiving holiday. now, mike, you're seeing that bay bridge commuter recovering now. yeah, we had the backup on the span because of a disabled vehicle that cleared. and it cleared with enough time that we were able to recover the speeds across the span and not cause an early backup. but also that's assisted because tuesday before thanksgiving, we see a lighter volume of traffic. so sometimes it's the last hurrah, folks getting into the office for one last meeting. and then leaving earlier in the day. expect a more compressed morning commute and very light tomorrow, but we're looking at a smooth flow but wet roadways in some patches we're looking toward highway 24. looks like there's some slowing into the caldecott, and i'll

check on the reports there because it looks like something did pop up on the screen now. counter commute eastbound. we did have slowing because of a crash just past okolona, so we're watching both directions between lafayette and orinda through the 24 corridor. meanwhile, the rest of the bay does show a smooth flow. as kari has been talking about the weather pushing over in through the sierra. they are checking for chains on both 50 and 80 and heading south to southern california. you may get that inclement weather as well. back to you. all right. thanks, mike. well, happening now, the holiday rush is on and it is set to be a record breaking one. triple a says that 80 million people will be traveling 50 miles or more today in the bay's ginger conejero saab live for us over at sfo and ginger tsa telling everyone you're going to have to get there early. and you want to take that advice. good morning marcus. they're saying the earlier the better. if you've got a flight out today, take the time to make that adjustment. you're looking at pretty manageable wait times here. we're at terminal two at sfo.

now this could look very different at different terminals depending on what airline you are flying out. but this is a little secret. you can go through the checkpoint here at terminal two and then make your way to your gate. so if the other checkpoints are packed, that might be something you want to think about. heading out to sfo projections are up this year, starting today until december second. the numbers are telling with the number of travelers tsa says they project to screen more than 18 million people. that is up 6% from last year. today, tomorrow and sunday are expected to be the busiest days, but people took off as early as last week, so tsa says it has already picked up the wait times. as i mentioned, well below those double digits five minutes for regular line. for the regular line, and one minute for clear. but if you do find yourself in a long line these next days, tsa says take advantage. that's the ideal time to take everything out of your pockets. your cell phone, your other cell phone, your keys,

your wallet, your tissues, whatever is in your pockets and put them directly into your carry on bag. that way, you save a little time when you get to the stainless steel tables. also, instead of putting them into the bin, that means you're less likely to leave something behind in a bin. good reminder there. and speaking of leaving, sunday is expected to be even busier than today and tomorrow. tsa says get to the airport early, at least two hours before your flight, maybe even earlier, to be on the safe side in case there are dreaded delays or cancellations, let's give you a look at what those numbers look like this morning for sfo. there are 35 delays as of last check. just one cancellation. san francisco bay oakland international has four delays and no cancellations. and down at sjc there are two delays. no cancellations. so still looking good for you this early tuesday morning. now if you are hitting the road today triple a says you

are joining a record 71 million people who will travel by car over thanksgiving that surpasses 2019 numbers by more than a million people. and there is some good news for people on the road. gas prices are lower this thanksgiving. the national average is 307. as of today, it was about 325 a year ago. now, triple a says if you want to hit the road today or tomorrow, you want to do so before ten coming back, they suggest that you leave before 1 p.m. on saturday and sunday, or you wait until seven after seven on monday, we will hear from amtrak. that's another mode of transportation that people are taking this thanksgiving holiday travel season. but as of now, terminal two here at sfo looking pretty clear. so if you are at the other terminals looking different, you might want to head over here and then make your way to the gate. just a little tip for you. we're live at sfo ginger conejero saab today in the bay. i think other terminals there are a little bit more busy, so make sure you get out early. all right. thanks,

ginger. new developments in the scandal rocking the san mateo county sheriff's office. san carlos leaders last night unanimously approved a no confidence ordinance calling for sheriff cristina corpus to be removed from her position. the city maintains a partnership with the sheriff's office, which is now in damage control after a scathing independent report suggesting incidents of retaliation and harassment. it also suggests an inappropriate relationship involving the sheriff and her then chief of staff. corpus denies all allegations and says she has no plans to step down. council members say the vote was important on multiple levels. for me, i've seen enough. i believe it is time for her to at least acknowledge the damage that is being done to the county in terms of public safety, public trust and confidence and the county's treasury, and resign immediately. i'm also concerned about the well-being of those working for our sheriff's office, and i do think that change is needed. the sheriff's office last night did

not respond to our request for comment, but in a recent newsletter, the sheriff tells residents transparency and information sharing are essential for building trust within the community. a federal court is weighing on an emergency appeal. this is surrounding a transgender volleyball player at san jose state university. now, this comes after the ruling saying that all players are allowed on the women's team. the first suit was brought by nine players, including the spartan co-captain and the team's assistant coach. they argue their rights are being violated by allowing the trans athlete to play on the women's team. the judge in the case says that the mountain west conference policy clearly allows trans athletes to compete. he also argued that other colleges knew the rules when they forfeited previous matches against san jose state university. legal expert stephen clark says that the legal proceedings regarding trans athletes in college sports is far from over. what you'll see now is that even though this

emergency request was denied, this case will make its way up the ladder in the federal court system. this really is becoming a national issue that needs to be addressed by the supreme court. the csu system issued a statement on the judge's ruling, saying, quote. the csu, the csu does not tolerate discrimination of any kind on or off the court. we applaud the court's decision and will be cheering on the san jose state university volleyball team as they continue to compete for the championship in the mountain west conference tournament. richmond leaders today debate new measures to cut down on dangerous driving and sideshows. it comes in the wake of recent incidents, including a chaotic sideshow along canal boulevard involving some 200 people. police ended up impounding several cars and charging nine people. in october, a teenager died in a crash on canal boulevard. the

extending up toward american canyon and napa as well as fairfield. so as you're getting up and heading out this morning, still a little soggy, even if it's not actively raining, there still may be some water on the roads, but it's going to be cloudy and up to 60 today in san jose. and 59 in morgan hill. a lot of us in the seconds for this afternoon, like vallejo, 59 degrees, 62 in concord and in oakland today, 60 degrees and upper seconds for much of the peninsula, daly city and san mateo looking at a high of 58 and 58 for the outer sunset for the north bay mill valley, 58 degrees and 60. in santa rosa. well, the big story for us now that the rain is clearing out, will be how cold it will be in the mornings going into the next few days. so this is what we'll see our low temperatures for tomorrow morning and looking beyond. so our lows in the upper 30s compared to the 50s that we have right now, we're going to really feel that when the heater starts to crank on a little bit

more and then look at thursday morning, our thanksgiving is going to be near freezing and a lot of spots will be in the low to mid 30s as you're getting up and heading out. and friday morning just as cold. if you're trying to catch some of those early holiday deals, but at least it will be dry. and we're looking at dry weather across the region going into the weekend. so after today, after these last showers clear, we are dry the rest of the forecast, but still very chilly. our highs in the upper 50s and lows in the mid 30s. laura marcus. all right thanks so much kari. well happening now a warning from danville police. this is after two home burglaries both happening friday night near the hidden valley community center on mccauley road. now, in both cases, police say that those suspects broke in through the sliding doors. police are reminding you to make sure that you have all your doors and windows locked, and also consider installing security cameras, alarm systems and motion sensor lights. if you haven't already done so. kamala harris waking up in the bay area
