washington. and i'm kris sanchez. i'm in for laura garcia. it was a lovely weekend. kari. and the week should be nice, too, right? yeah, it looks really nice. as we go through the next several days, starting out with some milder temperatures and some clouds as we take a live look outside in san jose. we have seen some fog drifting around parts of the bay area from the north bay to the east bay, but otherwise it's going to become a sunny day and by midweek we'll be watchg out for a chance of showers. but that's the only chance of rain we have in the forecast into the next week. and by the weekend it will feel like spring. so let's take a live look outside in san rafael with upper 40s and cloudy skies to start as we go throughout the day. some peeks of sunshine as it heads toward the low 60s here, and we'll see upper 50s and low 60s all across the bay area. we'll talk about those changes throughout the week and the microclimate forecast coming up. thank you. kari. now to a follow up in san jose, where police are looking for the people involved in the killing of a 15 year old boy.

the teen was stabbed at santana row on valentine's day, just after seven in the evening. police say they were called there for a fight involving several people. officers say the 15 year-old victim died at the hospital. police are looking for the people who fled the scene and so far there is no word on their identities. anyone with information is urged to call the san jose police and san jose police, also providing more details about a chaotic night at san pedro square. the citizen app video shows the police response after midnight early yesterday morning. so officers say it started with a brawl when police tried to break it up. they say other people got involved and the situation just escalated. a few officers suffered minor injuries trying to break things up. several people were taken into custody. well, activists across the nation are organizing today to protest, themed with the slogan saying, quote, not my presidents

day, but. five oh, it follows bay area protests this weekend that included one yesterday outside of the tesla plant in fremont. protesters are planned for today across the state and nation. that includes one in san jose, another in san francisco, both of those starting at noon. people will gather at 11 a.m. for a march and rally in oakland. 602 for you right now. and steph curry riding high following his weekend 2025 nba all-star game last night. the four time nba championship winner added another trophy to his very crowded case mvp and his team, which included oakland's damian lillard, former teammate kevin durant. they actually won the tournament at chase center. the game featured a lot of nods to warriors and bay area culture that included a celebration of bay area music from e-40 to two short saweetie and in vogue, and more than

dunks and plays and all of the hype. of course, basketball really is proving to be a power to transform beyond the game. today in the bay ginger conejero saab is live in san francisco this morning, ginger. leading the way in that effort is our very own golden state warriors. we love to see it. go warriors! good morning chris and marcus. those dunks and those shots brought lots of fans to their feet during all star weekend. but it is our golden state warriors that are proving there's much more to the game of basketball. the game of basketball, much like the game of life, doesn't always go according to the playbook. two on this side, two on this side. sometimes it can mean you get taken out of the game. i committed my crime in 19 years old. camee to prison at 20. they gave me life without the possibility of parole for murder. robbery. but what happens if you get a chance to be put back in? would you be ready? and how would you start

again? i don't react, i respond, i take a breath and i move on. let it go. get it back. next play, i attack. what we do is we use sport, in this case basketball, as a catalyst for change. hilton freud is the global ceo of the twinning project born out of the united kingdom. they engage incarcerated people in football based programs to rebuild life skills and even obtain a qualification which could improve chances of employment upon release. recently, the twinning project partnered with a club in los angeles, and that is when the golden state warriors took notice. i got to give a lot of credit to our director, claudia. least, you know, she kind of discovered the twinning project, saw what was going on and what was being done with soccer. and she had the idea of, well, why can't we do this with basketball warriors? and that is what the warriors did. more than 20 incarcerated people have graduated from the warriors partnership, and they

can't seem to get enough of the community that's being built. we appreciate you all from the bottom of our hearts. and they came in that name on your shirt. it's the twinning project. ray woodfork is serving his life sentence at the california state prison solano in vacaville. i killed mr. roberto granados arguello street on december 20th of 2001. that moment changed my life forever. woodfork went through the twinning project program not knowing what to expect, but what he got out of it. the blues. they don't see this. they treat me like a human. sometimes you have to believe in someone else's belief in you until yours kicks in. nba champion and former warrior festus ezeli knows sometimes it's that coach in the game or in life that makes all the difference. just like my mentor keith did for me, i'm doing it for other people. and it's not. it's not just because i'm a samaritan. i just feel like it's my responsibility. i've been given that platform. some of them did some bad things and

they're trying to change their lives for the better. i was able to find myself here, so i was able to actually redefine who i was and not allow that moment to define me as a person and project. now, the warriors are the first basketball team to partner with the twinning project, but they may not be the last. the twinning project says they're already getting much interest from other teams. guys, back to you. great program and great to see good things happening for them as they change their lives. ginger thank you. a new at six. the man accused of killing united health care ceo is breaking his silence from behind bars. in a message to his supporters on a new website, luigi mangione says in part, quote, i am overwhelmed and grateful for everyone who has written to me to share their stories and express their support. while it is impossible for me to reply to most letters, please know i read every one that i receive. in an unusual

legal move, his defense team launched that website and it comes ahead of a court hearing later this week. meantime, a new documentary called who is luigi mangione? that is set to air this week. it features new surveillance veo and firsthand accounts of the accused gunman at the center of the murder case. ahead of this week's court hearing, money from his supporters continues to pour into his legal fund, which now has raised more than $464,000. it is cash. legal experts say, will come in handy for his defense team. money he is able to raise is a benefit to the defense in a case that otherwise, to outside observers, appears to be a really difficult one for the defense to win. while awaiting trial, mangione adopted or rather added, a court appointed death penalty legal expert to his defense team. he has pleaded not guilty to several charges, including first degree murder. developing in the

southeast. kentucky's governor saying that president trump is approving a natural disaster declaration following some of the strongest storms in years. at least nine deaths are now confirmed. raiain, wind and winr weather there, toppling those trees and washing away roads in louisville. other parts of eastern kentucky also dealing with heavy flooding out there. meteorologist kari hall of course, tracking where that system is heading. now, i know you have family there in that area. how are things there now? well, that storm system has completely cleared out. we're just seeing the remnants of all of that energy creating some lake effect snow. but the thing that we're concerned about, after getting six inches of rainfall over such a short period of time, there is a winter storm headed toward kentucky. and that's going to really hamper those cleanup efforts as we are going to see snow coming down over the next few days. so we'll continue to monitor that as we bring it back home. we are drying out and seeing a nice clear start around the bay area, and there's another storm system well off the coast that will arrive on

wednesday, but it will be a pretty weak one. so as you're driving to work on this president's day, we are gng to start out in palo alto with 46 degrees. and throughout the day we are going to see the sky gradually clearing out, headed for 60 in palo alto as well as 60 in martinez. and it will be 60 in san jose. pretty uniform temperatures from the north bay to the south bay tomorrow a touch warmer as we get more sunshine, and it could be as warm as 66 degrees in gilroy as well as san jose. so we'll be watching that warm up coming our way, as well as the traffic out there. a look at a smooth drive all around the bay area. we started out with some fairly light flow of traffic looking at the bay bridge. no issues and they haven't even turned on the metering lights at the bay bridge. i don't think they will at the toll plaza. so things are looking good there. and we're also seeing no major accidents on the roadways this morning, so it looks great. hopefully you have a nice, safe drive to work

and i'll keep an eye on everything. with an update coming up again in a few minutes. back to you. all right. thanks. kari getting rid of lawns in the north bay. next. how you can get cash in your pocket for switching away from grass. and it's presidents day, right? well, the new york stock exchange says no, it's not. what's in a name coming up. plus, your inside ticket to a very exclusive event. we're actually talking about doug's winter party. and if you don't know what i'm talking about here, i want you to stick around, because a lot of folks are talking about it. we're going to tell you about the viral impact it's having and the heartwarming get together put together by the special 87 year old man. keep it right here. you're

(burke) if it's important, it's not worth compromising. which is why with farmers, you don't have to compromise quality to get great savings on your insurance. i saw a nice hotel down the road. little less pungent. (wife) yeah. (burke) shall we? ♪

heading out at 613 on this monday morning. we are looking live in san francisco where we can see it's all clear and it was such a busy weekend, but now things are calming down there and we'll see temperatures in the upper 50s for this afternoon with a mix of sun and clouds. a pretty nice day ahead. we'll be tracking rain and a few changes as we go through the week. coming up in the microclimate forecast. and as you head out on the road, here's a look at some of the drive times. haven't seen any major incidents on the road and the traffic flow is fairly light. so it looks like you can get to work a little faster if

you're working on this holiday. we'll talk about what to expect, as well as a look at weather coming up in a few minutes. well good morning. very happy monday to you. it's a holiday so the stock markets are closed. technically they're closed for washington's birthday. that is what federal law named it. so that's why the new york stock exchange calls it that. you've heard the white house wants everyone to say gaugh of america. so by that token, it's not presidents day today. the white house also says it's likely to grant doge access to taxpayer records, what the irs calls the integrated data retrieval system. doge says it's looking for fraud and inaccuracies. the white house also says it plans to meet with the federal reserve on a regular basis. so the president's opinion about the economy can be expressed. central bank is supposed to be an independent body making decisions outside the political sphere, the head of trump's economic council told

cbs. the federal reserve's independence is respected. the point is, the president's opinion can also be heard. he is the president of the united states, and cnbc has done some math and figured out that the golden state warriors are the world's most valuable basketball team, selling more jerseys, more tickets, more endorsements than any other team. the warriors bring in nearly 800 million every year, giving them an overall value of nearly 9.5 billion. knicks in second place. lakers below that. bulls and rockets least valuable team is the memphis grizzlies, worth about 3 billion and change. former apple engineer robert pera bought the grizzlies back in 2012 for just 377 million. i talked to him shortly after the purchase where he predicted, quite correctly, pro basketball would continue to grow. i believe the nba is the international sport of the future. it's so well, tightly

ingrained in youth culture and fashion. and when i've traveled the world with on business, with ubiquity, i've seen basketball courts popping up in china and india and south america. so i believe nba is a fantastic investment. and he was right. you know, i've lost touch with him over it's been what, ten, 12 years now. but for a while as a billionaire, he lived just north of us on north first street. in those apartments. you know, when i first moved here, raj told me that. yeah, yeah, yeah. and, i don't know, two bedroom apartment, you know, like, just some college student. he upgraded to a three bedroom. yeah. now that he has millions. right, right. he's like, i think i could go for that extra bedroom, maybe a half bath. okay, good to know, scott. you bet. take note, folks. all right. thanks, scott. well, new incentives in the north bay to ease our climate in crisis. marin water leaders offering homeowners cash to replace their lawns. this is all thanks to a funding boost. customers for a limited time can receive a rebate of nearly $5 for each

judge michael bublé and bethenny frankel are among the many people taking notice. turner penned 25 unique invitations with his own artistic flair and sense of humor. now the party happened on saturday. and now the host is speaking out about it, about how it went down. it was. it was a rager. yeah. we started at 4 p.m, and most of the 24 people invited showed up, and we just ate food and drank beer, and they even snuck into my whiskey stash and drank that. and that was pretty well. it lasted until midnight. oh, wow. hot dog. all right. to see how social media fans who could not attend in person were inspired to hold their own shindigs for the solstice. tune in to today. right after today in the bay that's comingg up at seven. pary hard. yeah, it didn't feel like the winter solstice here. well, i mean, winter solstice is in december, right? maybe it took that long to get all those back. i'm like, wait, we're a little off track here, but okay. it's

going to feel more like spring by the end of the week. and temperatures warming up warmer than we've seen in quite a while. and as you're heading out this morning, you may step out and say, okay, it's not as cold. we're in the mid 40s for palo alto. upper 40s for walnut creek, and in san jose, 47 degrees. so looking at what to expect today, if you have the holiday off and you want to find a new spot to enjoy, how about half moon bay? just enjoying some time out in nature and walking along the coastline. it's going to be in the upper 50s, so a cool day and only some peeks of sunshine, so make sure you're layered up. we're also going to be fairly mild for this time of year, as we take a look at our highs up to 60 degrees in napa and oakland, 62 in hayward and san jose will see a high of 60 degrees. a little bit warmer tomorrow, more sunshine and some of us making it into the mid 60s. we'll see that in the south county, as well as the south bay and up to about 64, in martinez,

as well as livermore and 62 in napa tomorrow afternoon on wednesday we will see some more clouds and a slight chance of rain in the north bay, but most of the rest of the bay area will kind of miss out on any wet weather. so here's a look at our hour by hour forecast. once again, dry today and tomorrow. but then take a look at this quick round of rain that's moving through between 9 to 10:00 on wednesday morning, moving into san francisco as well as parts of the east bay. but this system really just falls apart before it makes it into the south bay. so we're looking a parts of the bay area, seeing some very brief showers moving through. after that, we're going to be warming up. we talked about it feeling a little bit more like spring. and in brentwood we go from highs and low to mid 60s to 70 for the weekend. so what are you planning to do? you can already start on this monday morning to make plans, as we are going to have some really nice weather coming our way, although we could use a little bit of rain in the south bay and the east bay. we are going to be all dry

throughout the week, and that one chance of rain we get is where we don't really need it in the north bay, as we are going to go throughout the middle of the week. also for san francisco, that chance of rain on wednesday. other than that, the week is dry and we'll see a lot of sunshine and highs in the mid 60s by the weekend. heading out on the roads this morning. that's a live look at the golden gate bridge. we can even just count the cars right now. just a few people coming across. but definitely a pretty good volume coming through the tri-valley on 580. we've seen some fog drifting around this camera, just watching out for that. in some of those low lying areas. the bay bridge is looking good. they haven't even turned on the metering lights at the bay bridge toll plaza, and you can see why there really isn't a lot of cards out there. and in fremont, as we take a look at 880, well, it looks pretty good there as well. looking all around the bay area, no icons on the map here, just green sensors, which shows that everybody is driving safely, at

least at the speed limit. so maybe you can hang out with us a little bit longer and sip your coffee. it shouldn't take too long to get to work. we'll have another update coming up again in a few minutes. back to you. that sounds nice. relaxed morning. yes. all right. 622 right now. bay area homeowners dealing with a builder taking their money and doing little to no work. well, now the state lawmakers are taking action to protect people in the future. up next on today in the bay, our consumer team has an

leading the effort to slash the federal budget and thousands of jobs in the process. today, in the bay's bob redell is live outside a tesla dealership in dublin, where protesters gathered over the weekend. good morning to you, bob. what do we expect today? more protests in san francisco, oakland and san jose over the weekend. hundreds of people, they gathered outside tesla dealerships like this one here behind me in dublin. this happened nationwide. this is to express their anger at tesla ceo elon musk and his efforts to cut federal spending, spending and to cut federal agencies. as you can see in this video, there were a small number of people who protested outside this dealership here in dublin. and then there were others at tesla showrooms throughout the country. again, to try to get people to stop them from buying musk's electric vehicles, to try to send them a message on the peninsula. a number of people held signs and stood on the sidewalk outside the tesla dealership in palo alto. president trump has appointed

musk that lead the department of government efficiency, also known as doge, to cut what he and musk says is wasteful spending by the federal government. many people questioned musk's true intentions. they have criticized doge's lack of transparency, and they believe musk has access and continues to access the private, personal and financial information of american citizens. we're concerned about the coup, the ongoing administrative coup by the executive branch. that's president trump and elon musk coordinating together, basically to seize the entire financial power unconstitutionally and illegally away from congress. we've seen the reaction in europe. and, you know the behavior here. it's going to follow. it's a matter of time. that was a professor at san jose state who specializes in tech, who believes musk's involvement with doge will hurt tesla car sales here in the united states.

according to the california new dealers association, tesla sales dropped 11.6% in q4 of last year compared to the year before, and tesla's sales in europe have declined sharply. we did reach out to tesla for comment, but have not yet received a response. so three more protests are planned later this afternoon outside tesla dealerships, again in san francisco, oakland and san jose. many are also calling for a nationwide protest titled not my president's day. reporting live here in dublin. bob redell today in the bay. all right. good information. thanks so much, bob. now, the immigration institute of the bay area wants to make sure that you know your rights if you're detained or even questioned by ice officers. so the qr code there on your screen is going to take you to their red card, which you can print out. there are many of them available. they're available in eight different languages, including tagalog, korean and farsi. i'll talk about a slam dunk. basketball fans had plenty to soak up all weekend for the all

star weekend finale, and we'll say that last night's games delivered on that action that it did. okay, so nba tried out a new format for you. and as today in the bay's alyssa goard reports. steph curry actually played a starring role here. the golden state warriors stephen curry was the clear star of this weekend. his team, which included oakland's own damian lillard and former teammate kevin durant, won the tournament. as for steph, it's only fitting that the all-star mvp on this score go to steph curry. it's really cool. all my favorite players are here. it's awesome. fans who've been to warriors games would recognize the warriors dance teams and hype man franco finn, who did what they do best. this is huge for our region in san francisco and the bay area beyond. i'm telling you, the worldld is watching us right now. the game was a who's who of local stars, including chef guy fieri, michael brownlee, and a celebration of bay area music from e-40 to too short t

saweetie and even vogue. a chance for people from around the country and around the world to learn about bay area style. the vibe has been great, the city has been great, it's been very welcoming. it's a nice city. i mean, there's some good parts and bad parts, but right down here by the chase, it's been really nice so far. it's been a slam dunk. mayor daniel lurie says he's already seeing ways this could benefit the city in the future. business leaders are here, nba owners are here, and they're saying, oh, your city looks good. and there's this sense of optimism and energy in the city that they haven't seen for years. the bay area pulled out all the stops to wow the world of sports, an effort that will continue as the region hosts the super bowl and world cup games next year. alyssa goard today in the bay. all right. so everyone this morning talking about one young fan from oakley. this i think the best story it really is because. so this was a surprise trip to the all star game. and it ended in a six figure viral

moment. so during the break in the action, 18 year old jaren harris actually was called down to the court for a three point challenge. this is against the bucks star and oakland native damian lillard. well, jaren had to make just 13. shot before lillard made three. and when he did, the young man won $100,000. later talking about it in his once in a lifetime moment. and to compete against damian lillard was also pretty cool. and then after i made the shot, shaq and kenny all gave me a hug. and then i saw curry at the end too, which was pretty cool. you see how chilly is? yeah. you know all these people came hug me. you know shaq and all that. you know my buddies oh my gosh look at that. so maybe the best part of the story is he had no idea he was even going to the game until his dad surprised him with those tickets on saturday. he currently attends los mendoza college in pittsburg, and plans to use at least some of that money to help fund his

education. wow, what a smarty that is. so cool to swim in that i know right? well. the bay area will play a central role in two more major sporting events next year, and we are so excited to be talking about them, both of them at levi's stadium, of course, super bowl 60 on february 8th, which airs right here on nbc bay area. and then there are five group stage matches during the 2026 world cup. well, taking a live look for you in dublin this morning, that sun starting to peek out. meterologist kari hall has a look at what we can expect there. and the sky is matching your dress. yeah, a little blue there this morning, but it will also clear out as we go throughout the day and seeing some sunshine for the afternoon. we're in the upper 40s as you're heading out in walnut creek, 46 in palo alto, and 51 as we take a look live in san francisco, let's head to gilroy with a look at what to expect. it will be 46 at 7:00, and we'll see the sun just peeking out. and as we go throughout the day, continuing to clear up as our highs briefly

touch 60 degrees. we'll see a high of 62 in concord and 59 in novato and san francisco, and it will be a little bit warmer tomorrow as that sunshine continues. and we're expecting a warming trend as we go through the week. we will have a chance of showers. i'll talk about that coming up a little bit later. heading out on the roads this morning. a look at the golden gate bridge. it's such a nice clear view. no fog here, but i have seen some fog in some parts of the north bay, as well as around the tri-valley, but it is clear on 580 as you're driving to work this morning. also, the bay bridge is flowing very well. we've seen a smooth flow of traffic even across the bay bridge toll plaza, which we don't always see, but it looks great on fremont as well, traveling through the east bay on 880, and we have all green sensors on our maps here showing that we don't have any major slowdowns and no accidents as well. so looks great as you're heading out on this holiday, i'll keep checking in and giving you updates throughout the morning. back to you. all right.

i guess what i'm looking for 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]

on red. you get on that. you. i think so, yeah. i'm gonna pull you back under that brush. new at six. video of an intense rescue effort in the napa river over the weekend. firefighters posted it saying someone fell down a 20 foot embankment early saturday morning. rescue crews sprang into action, as you saw there. so far, no update on the condition of that person who fell in. wow. well, the state department says american negotiators are ready to meet with russian delegation over the war in ukraine. scott mcgrew. they're going to meet in saudi arabia tomorrow. yes. that is the plan. good morning. our secretary of state, our national

security adviser, president trump's special envoy to ukraine will all be there. not clear at this point who the russians are sending. and the state department memo about this meeting this morning does not include any information about ukraine's role, if any. now, there have been peace talks before. in fact, the first meeting was just four days after russia invaded in 2022. there have been five sets of talks in all. ukrainian president zelenskyy was on nbc's meet the press sunday morning, warning ukraine will not be willing to give away parts of its own country in order to stop the war, and warning president trump not to trust putin. is it true that you told president trurump during that phone call that putin is only pretending to want peace because he is afraid of mr. trump? yes. yes. i said that he's a liar. and he said, i think that my feeling he said that he's ready for peace negotiations. and i said to him,

no, he's a liar. he doesn't want any peace. but i think he is really a little bit scared about the president trump. and i think the president has this chance and he's strong. and i think that really he can he can push putin to peace negotiations. yes, i think so. i think so he can. but don't trust him. don't trust putin. don't trust just words about ceasefire. now, trump said late last week he did trust putin at least about the desire for peace. and he said he trusts putin in the past, most notably in his first term, saying he trusted putin's word that russia does not interfere in elections. the white house still blocking reporters from the associated press from attending events or press conferences, the trump administration says ap is, quote, lying when it calls the body of water between texas and flora, the gulf of mexico, because president trump has

officially renamed it. trump's deputy chief of staff saying ap's right to irresponsible and dishonest reporting is protected by the first amendment. it does not ensure, though, their privilege, of unfettered access to limited spaces like the oval office and air force one. the trump administration has asked the supreme court to rule whether the president can fire a government watchdog without having to explain why, despite a w requiring that explanation, trump and elon musk say they're shutting down fraud and waste in the government. but as you listen to those claims, keep in mind they are firing many of the watchdogs who are in charge of finding fraud and waste, including inspectors general, quite a few of them, and inspectors in the government accountability office. marcus. all right, scott, thank you. 647 for you right now and plenty of golden moments during last night's snl 50 celebration, a lot of which people will still
