good mning. it is saturday, january 25th. we are taking a live look outside from our emeryville camera towards a hazy, foggy san francisco. on a

chilly saturday morning. we want to thank you so much for starting your weekend with us. i'm kira klapper cinthia pimentel h has a quick look at r microclimate forecast. jason good morning. good morning everyone. well we saw those clouds return. no more of those golden sunrises. look at dublin this morning. we are looking at those clouds streaming in as that low has dropped into the state. so you notice here that it's taking that counterclockwise turn. it will wrap itself around here and bring us some of those rain chances that we've been talking about leading up to today. it will be really spotty, so don't cancel your plans just yet. windy at times too, especially up there for the north bay interior mountains. after we push that out, we're going to be settling in with some really cold air. we have a freeze watch going into effect starting tomorrow and possibly carrying on into tuesday, so lots to talk about on a pretty active weekend. i'll be back with that coming up in about 15 minutes. all right cynthia, thanks new this morning for additional israeli hostages have been

released from hamas captivity and returned to israel. all four are female soldiers for the israel defense forces. 20 year old naama levy, karina alev, daniella gilboa and 19 year old lira aalborg. all four women were exchanged for 200 palestinian prisoners. it was a coordinated show. hamas militants handing over the hostages to israel on a stage in gaza city's palestine square, their families watching, shouting for joy, seeing their children alive and safe. seven hostages in total have been set free since the start of the ceasefire hostage deal last sunday morning here. locally, a total of 33 israeli hostages are expected to be released over the next several weeks during the first phase of the deal, according to the terms of the deal, 30 palestinians will be released for each israeli civilian hostage and 50

palestinians for each israeli soldier. back here in california, governor gavin newsom yesterday greeting president donald trump in the southern california wildfire zone. the president and first lady toured the destruction firsthand and promising federal help. the once political rivals have promised to work with each other to help speed up the recovery of that devastated region. today in the bay thom jensen reports. the president's trip to los angeles wrapped up like it started. we're on the same team. we want to get it fixed. so we had a very good talk with the governor, had a very, very good talk, a cordial visit from the start as president and first lady melania trump arrived at lax aboard r force one friday afternoon and were greeted by democratic governor gavin newsom before an aerial tour of the fire ravaged region. i appreciate the governor coming out and meeting me, kevin. we very much. president trump walked through

the ruins in pacific palisades, shook hands with firefighters and talked to displaced homeowners. it's likyou got hit by a bomb, right? yeah, like you got hit by a bomb. the day before, the president had warned federal aid might be withheld if california doesn't change its water resource management practices. but he wasn't talking about contingencies. after seeing the destruction himself. at one point, he said, there can be no golden age without the golden state, and he promised to help expedite the rebuilding process by waiving federal permits or drastically expediting them. more than 16,000 structures were destroyed in the palisades fire and the eaton fire in altadena and pasadena. governor newsom has signed a $2.5 billion state disaster relief package for the region, and he welcomed the much needed federal aid. we're going to need your support. we're going to need your help. you were there for us during covid. i don't forget that. and i have

all the expectations that we'll be able to work together to get this speedy rovery. we will. we've got to get it done. nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston says the president could be backing away from the threats because it makes sense politically to play nice in time of disasters like this. there's a price to pay. to the extent that if trump does play that kind of a game, there could be a lot of blowback. he says the president is more savvy in his second term and wields more power because of it. he understands where the levers and power are. he knows how to pull those levers of power, and he's got all the people where he wants them. after meeting with the mayor of los angeles and state lawmakers in a fire roundtable, the president promised the cordial relationship will continue. we made a lot of prorogress. it's tragic events, really tragic. thom jensen today in the bay. and it was a heartfelt thahank u here in the bay area from a grateful pacific palisades

resident, eugene kwok says seven homes on his block burned to the ground in the palisades fire, and he says 17 homes are still standing. it's all thanks to the heroic efforts, he says of the crew from san francisco's engine company, 25. so while kwok was here visiting his mother, he stopped by station 25 to express his gratitude. it's really hard to describe. it's a very raw emotion. a horrible disaster. but we also experienced a lot of human kindness. that engine and the four crew members, along with the fire department and all the firefighters in the state, are our number one heroes right now. we're star struck just to think of them. indeed. engine 25, by the way, is still down in southern california on the fire lines in president trump's first week in office for his second term. his promise of immigration enforcement is underway. u.s. troops have arrived at the

border, and immigration and customs enforcement agents have arrested hundreds of unauthorized migrants across the u.s, including one man in san francisco, today in the bay jocelyn moran reports. active duty military troops arriving in san diego and el paso, texas, to support border security. migrants are being deported, not on chartered flights like before, but on a military plane. two flights landing in guatemala. we're getting the bad hard criminals out. these are murderers. these are people that have been as bad as you get. after a record 10 million illegal border crossings over the past four years, ice is ramping up arrests of undocumented immigrants. 538 arrests made thursday across the country, doubling the daily average in september. ice confirming one arrest was made in san francisco. a man in the united states illegally who had been convicted of sexual exploitation of a child. our immigrant community is living with a lot of uncertainty. all of these developments heightening fear and concern

here in the bay area. just seeing all the news coming down from washington and all the executive orders and memos, it just brings a lot of uncertainty with our immigrant families and people just being a little bit more careful when they're out. jeremy burrows with the nonprofit group amigos de guadalupe, says they've seen an increase this week in people wanting to speak with immigration lawyers. in english and spanish. they've also passed out thousands of these red cards, informing people what they can say if an ice agent approaches them. and lawmakers in the state senate have passed measures to provide more money to help the state's legal battles with the trump administration and to help undocumented immigrants with legal support. those measures now head to the assembly. making sure that that people are educated and aware as to what their due process rights are, that, you know, even when it's federal agents, they're not supposed to be coming into private places without a warrant. in san jose, jocelyn moran, nbc, bay area news. and

happening today, the catholic charities east bay is hosting a know your rights workshop. it aims to help people and families understand their constitutional rights and protections within the u.s. it will be at the willow cove elementary library on hanlon way in pittsburgh. there are two sessions today one at 10 a.m, one at 1 p.m. now to the peninsula, where a candlelight vigil was held in half moon bay to mark two years since that deadly shooting. dozens of people gathered together to honor those seven farm workers gunned down by a coworker. most dominant nation. this vigil was held by the community group. alas, while marking the lives lost, organizers pointed to the changes made in the wake of the mass shootings better living conditions, better working conditions for those mushroom farm workers. local officials

criticized the trump administration for casting a shadow over the progress. with the ongoing threat of deportations. there are so many undocumented farm worker families who are not here with us tonight because of fear, but i want this message to reach them that when that word came, everyone at the county who i spok to had one thing to say, and that's that we stand with the undocumented community. we will not be deterred. alaska and other local groups like puente and coastside help are holding workshops to help farm workers also know their rights. a live look for you at the white house, where pete hegseth will be sworn in this morning as the new secretary of defense. the senate narrowly approving hegseth after a contentious battle yesterday. his nomination had been called into question over allegations of financial mismanagement, sexual misconduct, allegations of excessive drinking, all he

has denied. president trump stood behind his pick. the senate's initial vote was split 50 to 50. vice president jd vavance casthat tie breaking vote. back here locally, the search is underway for people involved in an armed robbery near a south bay elementary school. it happened around three yesterday afternoon at a store on old san francisco road in sunnyvale. police say several people armed with guns demanded money and then sped away in a car. no one was hurt, but as a precaution, officers placed brawley elementary under a brief lockdown. sunnyvale police later arrested one of those suspects. they are searching for t others. 11 past the hour on your saturday morning. still ahead on today in the bay. concern over toxins not only in the air but now in the water. following that fire at the one of the world's largest battery storage facilities just to our south in monterey county. we'll tell you what state leaders are now

cloud cover over downtown san jose. we are experiencing a big cool down this weekend. cinthia pimentel will be along with your microclimate forecast in just a few minutes. but first, leaders in monterey county are making moves to ensure that that

massive fire at one of the largest battery storage facilities in the world doesn't happen again. this comes a week after the fire at the vistra plant in moss landing that's south of santa cruz. state and local health leaders have announced expanded testing for dangerous toxins that may have burned into the air and water supply. they're also proposing new legislation to put the power back into the local community. currently, energy companies seeking to use specific land to build their energy storage facilities go to the state level, essentially bypassing local decision making. this bill is saying, as we would no longer allow an optn process for what's commonly known as streamlining, we want to make sure that local communities have a voice in land use decisions, particularly around something this volatile. county leaders also are asking the california public utilities commission to conduct a thorough investigation into the cause of the fire. the

cleanup could take weeks, if not months. the largest homeless shelter in the south bay is now open and welcoming those in need. the ribbon cutting ceremony yesterday officially opened the mercado reception center, or brc, in santa clara county. the nonprofit group home first renovated the facility thanks to a $150,000 donation. there are now beds, food and supportive services for up to 250 adults and their families each night. the nonprofit home first says it's a better overall experience for those seeking shelter. the updates on the shelter floor, including those privacy screens and sleeping areas. those entrance walls and bathrooms, are more than just structural improvements. they are steps toward increase respect and dignity for the people that stay here at the brc.c. the shelter is on little orchard street in san jose, about a mile away from the santa

clara county fairgrounds. saturday night live is new tonight, and actor timothee chalamet is not only the host, but also the musical guest. i've never done this before. you know, i'm having to be snl host and musical guest in the same week, so it's a lot of work. i want to focus on the hosting gig comes just days after chalamet was nominated for an oscar for his role in the bob dylan biopic, a complete unknown. fans are hoping he will be performing dylan songs during the show. don't mind that. you can watch saturday night live right here on nbc bay area. it starts at 830 tonight. if you missed that coast to coast live broadcast, an encore will play right after our 11 p.m. news. and before we get to cynthia with the forecast, we want to mention that the san francisco giants and lucille will be taking a road trip down to san jose today for fan fest. it's like a traveling fan fest this year. they'll be there from 1 to 4 at

san pedro square market. you can get autographs, photos, all sorts of swag. so cynthia is here with the forecast for that and much more. and then eat at san pedro square. i love to eat there. it sounds good, but we need to bundle up as we get our weekend started. much cooler. we are looking at a patchy fog situation there through san rafael. it's cold to pretty much in the 30s and low 40s around the bay for today. and here it is. we're not going to break out of the 50s for our forecast highs today, so no more of those 70s we had thursday. we felt that cool down yesterday and then today and really sticking into tomorrow as well. we need the jackets pretty much all day long. here's why. it might feel cooler up there in the north bay. those gusty winds offshore putting us under that wind advisory through about tomorrow morning. the peaks of their the interior mountains up there in the north bay could get the gusty winds there, leading to maybe some tree limbs flying

around and possibly some power issues. so prepare for that. that's all because we are getting this low pressure system coming into the bay area. you'll notice cloudy skies at times, maybe squeezing a drop or two as we go through the morning. as that low wraps itself around a gloomy day. so if you don't want to leave the house, i don't blame you. we go on into the afternoon. still some scattered activity. eaton later part of this evening where it could stt to ramp up will be in the overnight hours. so we'll follow that. and you might notice little dots of pink that start to appear on the screen. we could be waking up and seeing a light dusting down here for mount hamilton. also up there for the north bay mountains where the air will just be so cold, allowing for about maybe two inches. if we are lucky, the activity will continue into tomorrow and maybe continue to push out south into the monterey area and the central coast down into la. that fire relief is on the way. good news there. as far as how much we could be getting here into today, we are looking

at trace amounts. here it is maybe higher into the santa cruz mountains and parts of morgan hill as the storm tracks south. so really it's not an us thing. it's more of a southern california system that we are looking at, but it could bring some snow up there in the sierra as well. there is a winter weather advisory. bring the chains. it's not crazy. 1 to 2in as we go on. better day to get up. there would be monday if you can make your weekend a little bit longer. i talked at the top of the hour about a freeze watch. here it is as we go on into tomorrow and possibly into tuesday. pretty much everybody under this freeze watch as we go on and maybe look at some upper 20s and mid 30s. and this is some dangerous cold, especially for our unhoused are the pets and the plants and everything really that needs to be protected from this cold. get ready to do that as we plan for tomorrow morning. our inland. seven day forecast. we're not breaking the 50s today. we get low 60s and sunshine returning next week, but there's another hint of rain there if you look towards the right of your screen

going on into next weekend, where the pacific could start to get a little bit more active. so we'll be watching that as we get closer to it. all right, cynthia, thanks so much. looking forward to winter weather finally. you know i'll miss the sun, but it's time. i miss it already. yeah. 20 past the hour. we have much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up just days away from lunar new year. we'll take you on a tour of san francisco's chinatown, learning about some of the traditions as about some of the traditions as people ppare for there i guess what i'm looking r from you is, i mean, i know how the fire affected me, and there's always a constant fear that who's to say something like that won't happen again? that's fair. we committed to underground, 10,000 miles of electric line.

you look back at where we were 10 years ago and we are in a completely different place today, and it's because of how we need to care for our communities and our customers. i hope that's true. [joe] that's my commitment. [ambient noise] for all those making it big out there... ...shouldn't your mobile service be able to keep up with you? get wifi speeds up to a gig at home and on the go. introducing powerboost, only from xfinity mobile. now that's big. xfinity internet customers, cut your mobile bill in half vs. t-mobile, verizon, and at&t for your first year. plus, ask how to get the new samsung galaxy s25+ on us.

are bustling with activity as vendors, locals, and even tourists gear up to celebrate the year of the snake. and this year, being the wood snake, i think it's a year that's really going to be marked by being a creative year. a year of resilience, a year of abundance. lunar new year decorations are everywhere. signs of good luck and prosperity. now this is pretty cool. this is kind of what we will see during this celebration. yes, including asian star fantasy on grant avenue. and this as you said, this will go like in the front door. yes. so you generally want to hang it like near an entry way because you're ushering in luck and also like taking good luck out with you when you're when you're leaving. so the red envelopes are right over here. the red envelope, that's something whether you know much about it or not. i know a red envelope. something's inside. yeah, what's inside is money. ultimately, what each red envelope carries is the hope for

wealth in in the new year. you know, you take pride in the types of envelopes you pick out and, you know, going to the bank and getting new bills. and when you get married is when you start to give out envelopes. if you're single. well, you'll be receiving a red envelope from many different receive. married. give. yes, yes. so do anybody does anyone try to stay single for a long time? i mean, that might be a plus, you know, and you can get all your chinese new year decorations at the flower market fair in chinatown on grand avenue today from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m, and then on sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and you can watch more of my chinatown tour and what i learned about other simple traditions, something that we all can do, like cleaning up and getting your hair cut. for a list of all the celebrations around the bay area, go to nbc bay area.c/lunar new year. kira. i learned a lot. had a great time.

saturday, january 25th. a live look outside a lovely as we look towards the transamerica pyramid. cloudy skies but a little bit of a pink glow as we welcome a new weekend. thank you so much for starting your saturday morning with us. i'm kira klapper cinthia pimentel has a peek at our microclimate forecast. definitely had to throw on my fuzzy boots this morning. i've been sleeping with like three blankets like the entire week. it is cold and especially up there towards the north bay right now. 37, in santa rosa, napa. the 30s continue for the east bay through concord and dublin at 39. but we have some microclimates, some upper 40s, as we go through parts of palo alto down into gilroy. we're going to keep the jackets around all day long, maybe bring one that has a hood to protect you from a chance of some spotty showers out there for today.

here's what we're tracking. not only the rain, but the cooler temperatures that could also bring about a light dusting of snow on our highest peaks. gusty winds up there, too. and for the sierra, also, just a little bit of some fresh powder up there. but the rain definitely going to benefit overall la this weekend with a firefight. so we'll talk about this and more coming up in about ten minutes. kira cynthia, thanks. new this morning, four additional israeli hostages have been released from hamas captivity and returned to israel. all four are female soldiers for the israel defense forces. 19 year old liora albeck, 20 year old. naama levi. karina alev and daniella gilboa. i wanted to me sure i got those in the right order. the four women were exchanged for 200 palestinian prisoners in a coordinated show, hamas militants handed over the hostages to israel on a stage in gaza city's palestine square,

their families watching, shouting for joy, seeing their children alive and safe. you see them there. seven hostages in total have been set free since the start of the ceasefire hostage deal. last sunday morning. our time. a total of 33 israeli hostages are expected to be released over the next several weeks. during the first phase of that ceasefire deal, according to the terms, 30 palestinians will be released for each israeli civilian hostage, 50 palestinians for each soldier. that's why 200 will be released today. meanwhile, president trump's campaign promises of immigration enforcement have taken shape during his first week in office for his second term. across the country, there are reports that ice agents arrested hundreds of unauthorized migrants and the first here in the bay area, a man in san francisco. we have video as active duty military troops arrived in san diego and el paso to support border

security. migrants being deported were not on chartered flights like before, but on a military plane. 538 arrests were made thursday alone across the country, doubling the daily average set back in september. ice confirming they did make one arrest in san francisco. a man you see there in the united states illegally, who had been convicted of sexuall exploitatin of a child. meanwhile, lawmakers in the california state senate have passed measures to provide more money to help with the state's anticipated legal battles with the trump administration, as well as to help undocumented immigrants with legal support, making sure that that people are educated and aware as to what their due process rights are, that, you know, even when it's federal agents, they're not supposed to be coming into private places without a warrant. the nonprofit group amigos de guadalupe says they've seen an increase in people wanting to speak with

immigration lawyers. they've also passed out thousands of cards. you see there those little red cards informing people what they can say if an ice agent approaches them. and with these expected ice raids, many bay area parents say they're fearful of what might happen to their children at school. and the emotional toll for many is just increasing. today in the bay's damian trujillo takes a closer look. in san jose's alum rock neighborhood. anecdotally, you will hear from parents say they are too afraid to send their children to school on certain days. here in alum rock. those numbers seem to fluctuate on certain days, but the fear remains. claudia obregon decided to send her daughter to school, but that wasn't the case. the day after the inauguration. pero es este amor. si verdad. claudia says there is great fear among her friends and neighbors, many who also keep their children home from school on certain days. mandando. this mom didn't want to give her name, but says she fearfully sends her daughter

to school. so it causes a lot of stress for her students. school board member corina herrera says she's heard from many parents who keep their children out of school on certain days, like the day after the inauguration, or they pull their children from class when they hear rumors of ice raids in the community. the district is still crunching the official attendance numbers, but there have been fluctuations day to day, and laura fears there is no way to measure the student's stress levels in local middle schools and high schools. we've heard children saying bye to their friends already because they don't know if they're going to leave. you know, back to where, you know, their home or their parents birth place might be. even though the children might be born here. the district says it doesn't know how many parents are undocumented because they don't ask for that information. continuamente claudia says she prays for protection from god because her family came to this country with the dream of a better life. damian trujillo today in the bay. meanwhile, president trump

visited the southern california wildfire zones yesterday. greeted by governor gavin newsom during his tour, he said the government is ready to immediately start rebuilding and recovery efforts. earlier yesterday, the president touched down in north carolina to visit families hit by hurricane helene, then touching down in los angeles yesterday afternoon, greeted by governor newsom. despite a previously icy relationship, the two shook hands, exchanging pleasantries. afterward, governor newsom took the president on an aerial tour to see the damage from the palisades fire. president trump and first lady melania trump toured the palisades neighborhood, talking to families whose homes have burned down. the president also met with police officers and firefighters who were heroically saving those communities. his final stop, a fire briefing with los angeles mayor karen bass and local congressional representatives. we're going to waive just about essentially

waive all federal permits. we're going to have you go very quickly because the federal permit can take ten years. we're not going to do that. they are literally in a position right now. they'd like to start tonight and they'll clean their site. they'll do everything. they just want to start. trump also says he plans to sign an executive order to get southern california access to water fm parts of the pacific northwest and parts of canada. president trump said he believes states should take care of natural disasters without the help from the federal government. he said he suggested he would sign an executive order to gut fema. so i'm hoping that we can get these funds and that we don't punish individuals for the policies of their state. you can disagree with them, and i think you've got some ideas you don't hear from president trump there. but he did mention getting that money directly to the states without the middleman of fema, so to speak. after meeting with

the mayor of los angeles and state lawmakers at that roundtable, the president promised the coral relationship with california will continue. as for those two destructive fires that ignited more than two weeks ago, the palisades fire is now 79% contained. the eaton fire nearly fully contained at 95% combined. both fires burned nearly 40,000 acres, destroying 15,000 structures. back here locally, two students at the cal maritime academy are recovering after being caught in the crossfire while pumping gas in vallejo. surveillance video captured the shooting. people driving up in that white mercedes shoot through the students truck, getting gas towards another car parked on the other side of the truck. the two students were wounded. they got out of the truck and ran. one shot in the face, the other in the neck. the president of cal maritime says

one of the students used his thumb to plug the bullet hole in his neck while he helped his friend and called 911. cal maritime students, thankfully, are trained for medical emergencies. training kicked in during a really traumatic experience. it's a testament to these two. when i look at the level of violence and the frequency of the violence in this area, it's excessive and something needs to be done about it. a gofundme has been set up to help the student who was shot in the face, george hudson. he had emergency surgery and is still in the hospital. back here in the city happening today, thousands of people are expected in san francisco for the 21st annual walk for life. west coast pro-life demonstrators are being invited to meet at civic center plaza before marching down market street all the way to the embarcadero. the walk will start at 1230. 39 past the hour. still to come on today in the bay.

powering five years of savings. powering possibilities. comcast business. because of the gloomy weather that we're looking at right now through san jose, maybe even getting a drop out of those clouds right there for the early morning hours. much colder today. we had a lovely day on thursday where it felt like spring. yesterday those temperatures came tumbling down

and today, probably even worse. we're looking at nobody breaking out of the 50s through san francisco, through the tri-valley, and down here in san jose, only a high of about 56 degrees. there are going to be some spotty showers mixed in there, too. so if you don't want to leave the house, meet up with the friends, push it off to another day where the weather is a little bit better. we are looking quite interesting here. the wind advisory for the north bay is with us through tomorrow morning. we see those gusty offshore winds. aside from the winds, it could feel cooler up there, especially if you live in the interior mountains. but we watch the winds taking a little bit of a southerly direction as that low wraps itself. and that is further south into parts of the southern peninsula and the south bay. now here's the rain situation embedded in that wind movement. we go on and look to the middle part of the day. gloomy, spotty showers at times. really not going to be anything too exciting. so maybe just keep a small umbrella there with you. what will be kind of interesting to wake up to tomorrow will be a

light dusti of snow for the upper peaks here in the santa clara hills. as we go on and track that activity. still continuing with us. one more push there of rain here as we go on into tomorrow morning, and then pretty much out of here, except we're going to keep a chance of maybe seeing some isolated thunderstorms for the central coast, as that starts to push on through into southern california, where we see those returns of rain much higher for them. we'll also be waiting to hear if we have any localized debris flow. for us, it just looks like trace amounts as we push through this system today and tomorrow. after we're done with the rain, we are in for the freeze watch. notice those lows coming down into the 30s, possibly some isolated upper 20s there. as we get the workweek started, that will go until about tuesday the second half of the week. we do clear up there for wednesday, but then into thursday night, friday, i'm looking at another chance of rain that could come into the picture. san francisco and along the peninsula. i know we're getting ready for lunar new year. grab that jacket though,

depends on road conditions today. they're going to be great. but and also how comfortable everybody is driving. obviously safety is our main priority, but everybody always leaves with a smile on their face. definitely a smile on your face because this is something that you can't do every day. and this is all going to a good cause to talk to us about who benefits from this. so all the proceeds from today go towards local children and families in need here in sonoma county. we work with over 40 amazing nonprofits here locally that are able to receive the funds via grants that we distribute at the end of the year. so it makes a huge difference in the lives of these these children and these families. what better way to do that and have some fun on the weekend? so the track is open from 930 until three. you guys are taking walk ups, right? we are. although we do recommend checking the website to make sure we have space available,
