seven. now that california is largely out of the drought what is it proposal to change san francisco's policies. how the author says it will help in the fight against fentanyl. we talked to him, live. >> middle school and high school teachers in oakland were out there as they marched and demanded for better pay and you can see teachers and . students behind me. take a look at the marching. we are on broadway approaching 12th st.. they are marching to the old headquarters of district headquarters. this is a large group of individuals. teachers and community members even the president of the oakland city council is here standing in solidarity. many teachers i talked to say they are working multiple jobs just to make mincemeat. one high school history teacher told me she's getting paid less than neighboring districts and
3:02 pm
that is why many teachers are leaving at the end of this year. >> is a huge concern. teachers working conditions are student learning can conditions. there are vacancies across the district. when there's no teachers to in the middle of this. we were at skyline middle earlier today just one of our 14 middle and high school teachers participating in this walkout. they tell me this demonstration is to simply illustrate the decades long disinvestment by oakland unified. this district offered a 3.5 raise and that came with working more hours according to teachers. they call it a disrespectful proposal since the district has failed to keep their pay with neighboring districts for years according to teachers. one teacher is a high school teacher at skyline for about six years and he says his pay is the fundamental issue here but it's just a fraction of
3:03 pm
their demands. they want the district to take a holistic look at students, learning and working conditions of teachers. he said the district recently cut necessary positions to help students learn. >> the district cutting 100+ or dozens of classified positions on the dozens of student support positions making every single educator's job more difficult run. >> in response to today's labor action oakland unified says they will continue to negotiate in good faith with the oakland education association. will follow and let you know what we see. other stories a police chase ended in a deadly crash in rodeo. a mother killed her to twin six-year-old boys were injured. look at the surveillance video. the chp said the stolen mazda suv collided with a nissan on willow avenue last night. look at this. will bring up another angle of that violent crash. you can see the suspect at that point look at that he took the coward's way he got out and
3:04 pm
ran. police caught him soon after and he is facing charges including second-degree murder. he was running while the mother was losing her life in the other car. oakland police are looking for suspects who broke into the different businesses in chinatown thursday morning. this one if you look close was captured on video. you can see people holding up guns as they walked through the kitchen area of this restaurant. business owners in the area our meeting with police giving them all the information that they have. we are chasing that story and an update tonight at 5:00 and also streaming on cbs news bay area. is like a breath of fresh air and blue skies. crews in san mateo county took advantage of the good weather we are seeing and ready for the next round of rain. these are fallen trees. what you are looking at is el camino real. they closed off this road for tree removal and cleaning up all the debris and the mess that came with it. >> good news for drivers on 580 orleans open on east bounds in livermore.
3:05 pm
caltrans shifted the highway to the left where the retaining wall collapsed in the storm. the shift is temporary until he can get a permanent fix in place. make a stormy pattern in california over the last few months has taken the state largely out of drought. that's good news. the governor said it's time to pull back on water limit. and maccabee joins me with a story that more people will like. governor is not going to ask people to voluntarily cut water use by 15 percent. i don't know how many people were doing it but he also said they would ease restrictions for local water agencies and here's a vision why the governor is making this move. the drought map on the left is from december 20. our storm started after that and they have not let up much. check out the map no more red dark red or much orange to see. clear. still, the governor said our state has historically had problems retaining groundwater.
3:06 pm
california has to stay vigilant. >> when we talk about the hots getting hotter and the west getting wetter and the drives getting a lot drier, it requires us to reimagine a water delivery storage and conservation system in this state. >> the water districts that serve 27 million people in the state will get about 75 percent of the water they requested from the state. compare that to last year when they only got five percent. >> a lot of change. and maccabee, thank you. san francisco is a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants and we know that. what it means is that city employees are not allowed to assist in the enforcement of federal law. now it county supervisor wants to change the rules if an undocumented immigrant is convicted of dealing fentanyl. look at these numbers directly from the city and county show from 2020 february 20, 2022 deaths by fenton all in san francisco would triple the number of deaths by homicide and heroin combined. just staggering ernu
3:07 pm
pervisor maljoins me now. thank you so much. it's nice to have you on set. get you started i want to roll some video i want to personalize the story i want to introduce you to a young lady named karana. she walks through the tenderloin to go to to an afterschool program. she tells me she navigates that's street through what she says are drug dealers. when i look at the story i see this young lady one of the best in our community and she says this i'm asking you how will your plan help her run? >> let me say this this is personal to me. i have struggled with drug recovery for much of my adult life. we have a crisis right now and drug overdose deaths but also in street conditions and drug dealing and it's largely if not overwhelmingly being driven by one drug, that in all.
3:08 pm
>> who is carrying it? >> drug dealers. street-level drug dealing is at a level that i have not seen in years. in and around seven cisco politics goes back to my first job was san francisco. sanford cisco has a policy a long-standing policy that i strongly support sanctuary city policies that protect undocumented immigrants who are playing by the rules and obeying the laws. but there are long-standing exceptions in our sanctuary city policies are people who were committing crimes, who have convictions for crimes and on a second offense. right now under existing san francisco law there are 46 felony crimes for which sanctuary does not apply. >> for things like murder, rape, obvious big ones. >> it also includes things
3:09 pm
like extortion, carjacking, arson, robbery. in my view the deadliest crime going on in seven cisco right now and i would submit to you the deadliest crime in seven cisco history it's sentinel dealing. >> it will get worse? >> it's terrifying because were seeing things like iso and trach that are complicating the drug supply with a lot of open sores and injuries. we are also seeing in street conditions where people are out on the street as we just saw in the tenderloin who are so captured by the struggle and the addiction that they need to be on the street even if they don't have a place to go even if they don't have housing because this is so potently addictive and close to drug dealers. >> right now if someone's down there dealing the stuff they are caught and they fall within city sanctuary protections we can't protect them? >> what i'm proposing is that we take a hard line on the deadliest drug attempt cisco has ever faced, fit know and
3:10 pm
have the status quo on other drugs. statistically even if we go back to heroin or foxy or other kinds of drugs we would save hundreds of people per year. if people say it's a return to the failed impact on the war on drugs, if that was relevant five or six years ago but were dealing with something we've never seen before. this is a drug it's unprecedented. >> to go back to what were talking about here other cities that don't have sanctuary protections could say look at sam cisco reductions are for people who are pushing that in all. is that the case right now on our streets? >> i will say that we should make a narrow exception for fenton all dealing that would elevate the price for those drug dealers who happen to be undocumented immigrants, we should make it something where there is a price to pay for that in terms of the penalty or consequences. if we do that i think we have the possibility of saving lives. i strongly support sanctuary.
3:11 pm
it's not the job of local government to do the federal government work . we owe it to our communities. people are here they can trust their local government and the police department. i'm strongly in support of sanctuary but we have 45 crimes right now to where sanctuary doesn't apply and if are going to withhold sanctuary for extortion for god sake we better do it for the deadliest crime ever. >> public defenders are part of the critics. there's critics there how do you dress your critics? >> if we are going to have exclusions for sanctuary, for things like carjacking and arson and extortion, when you look at sentinel dealing given the loss of life that we are seeing it is staggering. it's also resulting in street conditions that are dangerous where people are out there captured by their addictions and we have to do everything we can to get people off sentinel. >> to bring it. all for ladies like karan.
3:12 pm
thanks much we appreciate the conversation. it's obviously a bigger conversation and we could literally devote the show and lots of broadcast with this. these to your questions. we will continue to have these conversations. it's important to you. thank you supervisor matt dorsey head still ahead elements bring concerns to wine country. the benefit they hope to get from all the recent rain when we come back. >> that's a timely tiant the for the weekend talk about the frost advisory and yes, another

as the bay area cleans up from wind and rain there's more worried the approaching cold weather could be an issue for winemakers. why? ross can hurt the vines that have now started to head out. olson walker showed you that there could be more good news and bad news. >> when you have water coming out of the sky it's a lot easier than having it trucked in. >> at william harrison vineyards and winery the general manager is waiting for the season to bust out of these dormant vines. >> little nodules here where the green growth will pop out and in a relatively short time within the next month. >> if your vines are budding
3:16 pm
frost can be bad news. >> it depends on where you are in terms of little microclimate . we have had some cold evenings and that will be a concern. if you've already got green growth. >> the potential problem is nothing compared to the good news here and that is plenty of rain and water. >> really hopefully we get enough to where it's penetrating the soil. we had three very dry years and we have been in a drought. to get out of that water really needs to get below the soil down where the roots of the vine go. that's where the vines look for their water. in a perfect world we wouldn't use any water on the surface. >> are trying to make up for three years? >> yes and it's hard to do. without a lot of water this year. >> we've had smoky years and people talk about how that might translate. does the wet winter translate into something you would notice in a glass of wine? >> what it does is relaxes the
3:17 pm
vine. it's not going to be as stressed looking for water. they tend to give us a little more fruit as you would expect. a little more water equals a little more juice but also if it doesn't get too hot it tends to give us a little juicier flavor and it's a little easier to drink wine when they are younger. >> is farming. at the end of the day the wine business is all about the farm. >> if you have to be a winery where the buds popped early this could be problematic with the bigger picture winemakers have a lot to be happy about. they can relax after several years of drought and as you just heard relaxed vines tend to give us more wine. >> wilson walker, thanks. the sierra celebrating all the snow lab said they got eight more inches getting it season total to over 600 feet. more snow is on the way. let's turn it out to our first
3:18 pm
wind and rain here. next week the next storm is already developing and i want to take most of my visit showing you where we think that one will end up. first before i get to next tuesday just when were really going to feel this here's friday afternoon . a week storm is trying to move through and there's a bit of a cloud show that more blue sky then anything else. the future cast shows a few light showers are possible here they won't last long. notice here everything is coming down from the north. it will stay this way through the weekend. clouds and a breeze and it's the breeze that you might notice the most. it adds a little bit of a wind chill. in the daytime highs, they will be in the upper 50s. add a 15 mph northerly breeze. it will feel cooler than that. also pulling in cooler air watch the streamline and the deeper shade of blue over the
3:19 pm
weekend. it's cold enough in the morning that we have a frost advisory for all the inland valleys. thwateet's the coast or the it down to mid 30s but if you're i will. the next couple of mornings, think about this delicate plant. those are your numbers for saturday and sunday will be a little bit colder than these bottom out a few degrees lower. let's look ahead here's the latest storm to develop you look at the clouds developing near hawaii. it's not just those but as we play the future cast have to watch that weird that is where the energy is coming from. the area of low pressure is here and it merges with that and now we have a storm that is very well put together with all the necessary ingredients to give us widespread rain and gusty winds. this is next week. look at the timing this will be tuesday morning. remember, we are still pretty far out in this so the timing and the detail is this but the take away is starting monday night and going through most of tuesday widespread rain
3:20 pm
probably about an inch on the high side of the forecast and that means we will be concerned about some minor streams and creeks ponding of water on roadways but it will also be windy. look at the center of the storm on monday. what we care about are the deeper shades of purple. this is not going to be a repeat of the storm that came through here on monday. were going to feel the most noticeable wind before the actual center gets here. it will be more typical that way but even then typical is an issue. we'll have gus with temperatures reaching 45 mph. monday night into tuesday afternoon and on top of that and inch perhaps of rain and it's going to be a bit messy again as we go into early next week. we are watching it closely and we will have an updated status on whether this deserves a first alert status. more on that to come. >> read, back to you. >> march madness back to some
