it is an eye opening experience for people to experience one night what people experience a lot. >> sara: now at 11 some are raving the bitter cold so others don't have to. the effort to stop youth homelessness. >> from kpix this is the late news with sara donchey . >> good evening i am sara donchey is been quite a week we have had heavy rain, wind and damage from both. bay is under
11:01 pm
frost advisory most of the weekend. darren peck is in for paul tonight. first the cold and then you have a whole other mess on our hands. >> yeah. >> with this storm coming in on tuesday. >> that's the bigger story. >> yeah. >> it's the tuesday morning time frame for that next storm. it's going to be widespread rain and winds strong enough we could be looking at the possibility of more downed trees. that's coming there is a us advisory the next few mornings saturday and sunday. temperatures low mid 30s for inland locations watch the morning close go down each day as we get sunday, monday and tuesday. i want to switch our attention to pulling out some of the headlines on what to expect from the monday night through
11:02 pm
wednesday time frame. when you look at that the take away in terms of rainfall. >> darren: if you look at the forecast on wide the site from 1/2 inch to an inch and 1/4, a if we get that it is a small flood advisory. this does not look overly overwhelming but it definitely looks rainy enough to raise awareness. it will not be as strong as the tuesday storm. the few storms off that is strong enough we could have issues. i will be back with the first alert forecast. for now sara back to you.
11:03 pm
she brought up some of the things she needs to brave the cold. just the struggles, the extra struggles the youth go through being minors and having to deal with not having a home. >> reporter: each participant had a goal of raising $1,000 to help the covenant house, an organization that helps homeless youth pay for food, shelter and medical services.
11:04 pm
>> the vast majority of all our youth are former foster youth. of that most of them were at their last placement less than six months and then a quarter of our youth have been sex trafficked, so they've experienced sex trafficking and especially for that 13 to 17- year-old group, that's part of what's led them to this experience. >> reporter: vera works for the covenant house and will take part in the sleepout. she adds 40% of the youth they serve are lgbtq and the majority are african american. many who have nothing but a sleeping bag like those here for the sleepout. alan august says part of this event includes learning about how most of the belongings the youth have are often stolen or they are forced to leave things behind. >> taking youth through losing all of your belongings and you have nothing and it was really heartwrenching because i was thinking i can go out and volunteer and do this, but i have all of these creature
11:05 pm
comforts that i can bring with me that, you know, some people don't have at all. >> reporter: ellen is a mother of two and knows spending one cold night on the streets doesn't compare and to what homeless youth have to go through every day. the goal is to bring awareness to the issue and hopefully inspire others to volunteer. >> my children, i hope that they can get the appreciation for the things that they have, having a roof over their head, food, clothes on their backs, things like that and i want to encourage them to want to get out and do more to help the homeless youth in the bay area. >> reporter: so, sara, these people say it's not exactly like what it would be tiply on a night they are tucked away, but it's a moment of action to bring awareness to this issue.
11:06 pm
>> you bring up a good point. of course, security and safety is a huge thing people unhoused have to deal with pretty much every second of every day night or dark. is that something they were talking about out there tonight? >> reporter: yeah. they had security out there. so like i said, it really wasn't a normal, typical night on the streets and that this is just to bring awareness to this issue. >> thank you so much. things really aren't made any easier when it comes to affordability and housing and the homeless crisis in this state. by this new report from the state housing partnership which shows that 120,000 homes in the state have become unaffordable for low income households since the middle of 2020. those darker regions on the map show where the problem was worst. the report says another 324,000 homes will been affordable by the middle of next year. it is not just young people dealing with this. healthcare workers in california are struggling to make ends meet, too. state lawmakers are proposing a
11:07 pm
minimum wage of $25 an hour for all healthcare workers in california, but the industry says the costs could impact patient care. one healthcare worker said that increase would make a life changing difference for her family. >> reporter: shawntae jones says it's a joy educating parents and helping them get through their pregnancy. she's worked at the same clinic in san pablo for 11 years, but she lives paycheck to paycheck. >> when you're at the grocery store, i have to tell my daughter we can't get this. we have to wait until next week or wait till the next paycheck and she's like i don't understand. you work. >> reporter: right now she works a second job to support her family, but if the statewide minimum wage for healthcare workers passes, this would give her the security to stay where she is, living in an apartment with her 16-year-old daughter. >> i can pay my rent a lot more easier and wouldn't have to worry about being homeless or
11:08 pm
sleeping in my car. >> reporter: state senator maria durazo introduced the bill. she says healthcare is a significant part of the economy and it affects everyone. >> they are understaffed and undervalued and we need to address that. we take care of those workers and they don't feel understaffed or undervalued anymore, that's going to make our healthcare system much, much stronger. >> reporter: we asked the california hospital association about a statewide minimum wage for healthcare workers. the organization said in a statement, "any proposal that would further threaten hospitals' ability to care for patients will only mean more uncertainty and diminished care for patients." the organization points out that some hospitals in california have already closed or reduced services. >> i don't see paying the people who take care of patients, taking care of them so that they can take care of patients who are ill, i don't
11:09 pm
see that as a bad thing. >> i feel that we was the healthcare heroes and now we're down as a villain. >> reporter: shawntae says her current income keeps her from qualifying for programs to pay for housing and food, but she does not want to give up on her patients. >> who is going to have the compassion and love for them like i do and my other co- workers? so we can't leave. we have to stay to help. >> reporter: shawntae and other healthcare workers in their union have campaigned together before and now hope to convince lawmakers to give them the help they need, too. frustrated oakland teachers walked out of class today onto the picket line. the union wasn't behind it. hundreds of protesters, some of them students, march several blocks to the district office downtown. they want better benefits,
11:10 pm
better wages, and they claim they get paid less than neighboring districts. >> that's a huge concern. i mean teachers' working conditions or student learning conditions. we have teacher vacancies at skyline. there's vacancies across the district. when there's no teachers to teach, students aren't learning. >> the district responded saying the strike did keep some students out of class today but that it will continue to negotiate a contract with the teachers association in good faith. new, shocking, and incredibly disturbing video of a deadly crash and rodeo that killed a mother of two young boys, the family sharing their grief and sorrow as the suspect sits behind bars. oakland business owners were asking where was the the previous security after thieves were caught on camera ransacking several chinatown shops. here are tonight's guests on "the

11:13 pm
new surveillance video, which is very disturbing, shows the moment a speeding mazda suv smashes into a nissan and rodeo killing a mom and her twin sons last night as police chased the driver of that mazda. it smashed into the mom's car as she turned left on parker avenue and fourth. a 20-year-old man from vallejo is under arrest facing felony charges, including second degree murder and driving a stolen vehicle. the surveillance video also shows what happened right after the collision. you can see the suspect's car on the sidewalk where he jumped out and ran away. today a relative of the victim stopped by the crash site to see the aftermath for himself. tommy lewis says he cannot believe what happened. >> i love my cousin and now
11:14 pm
she's gone. i don't know how to feel no more about this. she was 11 months, played sports, healthy, took care of her kids. this didn't deserve to happen this way. >> police have not said who the mother was. they haven't identified her right now. as for the condition of her sons, one of them is in critical condition and the other 6-year-old twin is in stable condition. in the east bay, a lot of small businesses are really upset after a string of recent break-ins in oakland. surveillance video there shows a group of people breaking into at least seven businesses in chinatown from restaurants to a salon. the video shows a burglar holding a gun going into different rooms looking for the cash register inside lounge chinatown, a restaurant that just opened in december. >> i feel numb, but i also feel enraged. >> they took everything. they're everywhere and they come all at once. they come in groups. >> the oakland chinatown chamber of commerce had a press
11:15 pm
conference about this this morning. business owners say while they appreciate the police presence during the day, they want officers to patrol businesses at night, also. meanwhile, the cleanup from this week's storms is dragging on. on the left you've got workers in burlingame removing a tree along el camino real and on the right they were cleaning up a tree that fell on a house in san anselmo. thankfully nobody was hurt. we also learned the name of the san francisco police sergeant injured by a falling tree while he was off duty during tuesday's storms. his name is kevin brugaletta. he's still very badly hurt but improving. meanwhile, some good news for anyone heading up through the altamont pass this weekend, four eastbound lanes of 580 are open again east of north flynn road in livermore. the highway lanes were temporarily shifted left to reopen lanes where a retaining wall collapsed during the storm until they can get a permanent fix in place.
11:16 pm
speaking of weekend plans, obviously weekend driving, there's damage people have to navigate around. we also have to deal with a little bit of cold. >> which is not a major factor. a frost advisory in the inland valleys. cover the delicate plants is the headline for the weekend, a bit of a breeze. let's move on. here's the takeaway for the monday night through the wednesday afternoon time frame and we're still far enough out it's best to kind of speak in generalities on this one and look at it in headline form. we can get a half inch to 1 1/4 inches in that time frame. tuesday morning would be the most impressive time frame for more rain. we could have an urban and small stream flooding scenarios, maybe ponding of water on roadways, streams and creeks. the lower end might not have to
11:17 pm
deal with that, but the possibility is on either end of the spectrum in terms of how far out it is and gusts of 45 miles an hour. that's kind of the middle road forecast on this. 45-mile-an-hour gusts would be enough to take a tree down but not a repeat of the tuesday storms, not that strong. i've taken us to monday night as it's approaching. we just saw what the rain would look like. within that you can also see what the wind looks like. we'll start with rain. tuesday morning most likely right there. that's kind of the most widespread rain. then we go through scattered showers through wednesday. within that time frame we pick up a half inch to 1 1/4. take a look at the leading edge out here. the deep band of purple is the cold front. that's the traditional way we get stronger winds from winter
11:18 pm
storms. that sweeps through. we don't get the center of low the like with the lae. that dissipates before it get here, but we still get the winds from the cold front likely late monday night into tuesday morning and that's when we get some of the strongest gusts, 45, maybe stronger. rainfall totals splitting the difference. it was a half inch to 1 1/4. these numbers fall at about an inch. here's the forecast through the weekend where it's just going to be a bit breezy and cold in the mornings. in the seven-day forecast there's that first alert day. we'll have much more in the details over the next 24 to 36 hours. vern, over to you. >> straight ahead in sports, more homegrown talent in play at the ncaa tournament. the warriors were back on home court tonight and that's usually a good thing. no rain this weekend means it's the perfect chance to get out and enjoy some of the events happening all over the bay area like the
