>> his logic was they're bombing everywhere. >> plus an attack suspect is slammed by police in san francisco, and the latin music sensation inspiring people to get up and do more than dance. >> as soon as i saw him, i said i want that hair cut. from kpix, this is the late news with sara donchey on cbs news bay area. hi, i'm sara donchey. tonight, more than a million people are being told to do what the united nations says is impossible. israel has warned people in north gaza, get out now. they were told they have 24 hours to leave about 27 hours ago, ahead of what many expect to be an imminent ground invasion by israel in response to the attack hamas launched almost a week ago. but many palestinians say they have nowhere to go. israel dumped

leaflets in the sky over gaza saying evacuation your homes immediately. the people that could leave packed what they could and headed south. the un and other humanitarian groups have called the orders inhumane, pointing out there's no food, no water, and again there's nowhere safe for people to go. u.s. officials think there are between 500 and 600 american citizens in gaza too, and there are many here in the bay area whose loved ones are trapped in gaza hoping to survive whatever is coming next. our betty yu spoke with a south bay man who grew up in gaza and tells us some of his family members say they won't evacuate. >> reporter: san jose resident sammy is pictured her with his parents in gaza, a place where he was born and raised before he left for college in jordan. >> it's beyond, you know, stressful. it's, i, you know, today i took the day off work. i couldn't focus on my work.

>> reporter: sammy works at a bay area tech company. his mind and heart are with his family in gaza. most of his siblings, nieces, and nephews, and his mom fled south. since the idf warned 1 million residents to evacuate within 24 hours for their own safety. his father, who's in his 70s, chose to stay back in the north gaza home that sammy grew up in. >> his logic was they're bombing everywhere. even on the way, his point was telling him to just go and stay with the family so they're all in one place, and he was saying no one guarantees we won't get bombed on the way. >> reporter: sammy's brother is saying behind to watch over their father. sammy last visited gaza earlier this summer. he remembers a childhood with periods of peace and violence. >> we would be tear gassed on the way to school almost every other week when i was six and seven. life was never normal in

gaza since 2005, 2006. >> reporter: now he's staying in touch with his family via what's app and hoping they come out of this alive. >> it will never end the cycle of events we see there because there's always occupation. people for 15, 16 years in gaza haven't had a path for life. yeah, they go to school. they eat, they sleep. but there's nothing. health authorities in gaza say 1900 palestinians have died in israeli air strikes, more than half women and children. israel meanwhile says it lost 1300 people in rocket attacks and brutal raids by hamas. also in gaza, hostages taken by hamas, including women and children, a berkeley ph.d student who attended a rally in san francisco today told us her sister-in-law was kidnapped. these were the last messages she got from her as she was taken. >> at 7:30 she texted we are

surrounded. at 8:00 a.m. she said i hear gunshots and blasts. there's fire outside. 8:26 a.m., they're shooting at me mom. 8:29, i love you. i love you mom. these are the last words we heard from her. >> president biden spent more than an hour today speaking with the families of the 14 american citizens still unaccounted for after these brutal attacks by hamas. some believed to be taken hostage. in an interview with 60 minutes, he talked about efforts to get them out. >> i say we're going to do everything in our power to find them. everything in our power. i'm not going to go into details on that, but we're working like hell on it. >> more of that exclusive interview on america's role in the war coming up on cbs sunday night at 7:00. across the bay area, jewish

families have been taking time to pause and remember the lives lost. tonight there was a vigil for peace in petaluma with many praying to not only end the violence, but for the safety of their loved ones in israel. andrea nakano talked with a rabbi who is trying to stay strong for his congregation as he worries for his brother overseas. >> reporter: the rabbi has lived in israel himself, but his brother just moved there two weeks ago to be surrounded by family and faith. rockets have been directed at his neighborhood, but so far they have been shot out of the sky. the rabbi was just at a baseball game with his brother a month ago. now there is constant worrying as his brother refuses to come back home? he's safe, and he's certainly not going anywhere. >> he's very proud to fulfill the life long dream of moving to israel. but it's a scary time. >> reporter: he's been watching news updates to see how close

the war is getting to his brother's home. the images from israel have been hard to watch, but feels he needs to stay informed. >> it's not easy. there are hours of just complete emotional breakdown and realizing turn the screen off, turn the news off, take a break. then you go back and read some more. >> reporter: this vigil was truly a call for peace as muslims, palestinians, and religious leaders all called for the end to violence. many in the community said they needed to be with others that shared their pain and see hope for the future. >> have to wake up and be a mom and wake up and like, have a job. it's just like too painful. this is, like, it's never been this hard. >> there's so much pain and so much fear and hatred out there, and this community feels different to me. it always has. >> with hamas leaders calling

for a day of jihab, the rabbi said there was some concern about safety, but felt it was important to hold friday's events. officers from the petaluma police department were there to make sure the vigil remained peaceful. >> we can't change the world, but we can change our community and neighborhood and hope it spreads. there are americans in israel who have had difficulties leaving as dozens of commercial flights have been canceled. today the first chartered flight carrying american citizens out of israel has touched down in greece. there was a mom from southern california trying to make it back home with her three kids. >> it is confusing. we're having to, um, kind of facilitate calling the embassy, calling whomever we can to get information, and usually that's none. >> jessica says she and her children are staying inside a bomb shelter while awaiting instructions. one thing we know can't

happen now, congress cannot respond to the war in the middle east or do anything else for that matter. they've gone home for the weekend without having elected a speaker. today house republicans nominated jim jordan of ohio, but he seems to have a math problem ahead of him. he can only afford to lose 4 votes, but today in a secret ballot, 50 republicans said they wouldn't vote for him. >> yeah, but he'll get there. i don't see a problem with him not getting there. i think the people have been here a long time. we've now elected a speaker candidate. >> he needs 217 votes to win on the house floor. police jump out of what looks like a soccer mom's mini

van and take down a cyclist in san francisco. plus, a driver turns an iron man race course into a racetrack. his excuse to police when they arrested him. and a rising mexican star is in the bay area tonight, and he's not only loved for his music. >> i've been growing it out since the day i seen him. the day i saw him, i was like i want that hair cut. plenty of clouds over the bay area this evening, but very little moisture out of the clouds so far. that could change tomorrow. the complete weekend forecast coming up.

well, this was something of a take down in san francisco's tenderloin. police officers jumped out of a very ordinary looking mini van and bowled over a guy on a bike. it happened this afternoon at ellis and hyde. police say he was the suspect of a hammer attack on another man a few hours prior. the 38-year-old is now under arrest for attempted murder and a probation violation. wow. well, there's something in the water off the pacifica coast, and whatever it was bit a surfer in the water today. it happened around 3:30 this afternoon. the surfer was hurt and taken to the hospital, but we're told he's going to be okay. okay, they are not exactly

the type of water front you long to live by, in fact al michaels actually made fun of them when thursday night football came to levi's last month. >> ever notice we come here and the only aerials are 44 miles away. we'd like to bring in aerials from nearby, but show the evaporator flats? >> well, you know what? those ponds he was ripping on were a once thriving wetlands. salt marshes that helped filter water, shelter wildlife, and protect coastal communities from flooding very importantly. however, climate change is threatening to bleed them dry by the end of the century. tonight anne makovec shows a new approach that could give them a chance. >> reporter: little flags mark

the spot. >> dense clusters of seedlings. >> reporter: here this once last salt marsh. >> that looks beautiful. >> reporter: has found a new chance to survive, even thrive as the planet warms and sea levels rise. >> what we've done here at hester marsh is build tomorrow's marsh. >> this marsh will survive much longer than most of the rest of the marshes in our system. >> and then you have a tag there. >> reporter: these scientists are part of a ground breaking effort to restore the marsh. >> we're pioneering this approach in california of building such a high marsh forward thinking for sea level rise. >> reporter: in the past century, california has lost more than 90% of its salt marshes. climate change with its melting glaciers and warmer oceans promise to endangerer the rest. >> those that remain here at elk horn slew are really low, so with just a little bit of sea level rise, they're going to drown. >> it's just a rare habitat we

don't want to use. >> reporter: decades ago farming and other human activity badly damaged the marsh, causing it to sink. this project promises to undo the damage by elevating it with a lot of dirt. >> we've built it up so high where it's only swamped by the highest tide of every year, and that means it will be resilient for tomorrow and face quite a bit of sea level rise. >> reporter: so far the project has moved roughly half a million cubic yards of soil. most of the dirt comes from nearby hillsides where it's scooped up and moved by a fleet of trucks. the caravan to the restoration site where the dirt is dumped. it's a living laboratory. >> we had a clean slate where the soil was moved in. we can learn so much about how marshes are developing. it's really a unique opportunity. >> that is amazing. >> reporter: the project also

involves revegetating the higher plain with thousands of plants that grow in salt marshes, including pickle weed. >> we've seen hundreds of thousand of pickle weed sprouting in the new marsh, which is really exciting. >> reporter: the hope the plants will establish roots, filter water, and even sequester carbon. >> it's what i'm both interested in and passionate about. >> i do like looking to try and figure it out. >> reporter: these university students are monitoring how the restoration is taking root, and it gives them hope. >> even if it's just something small, i can do something to better, not only this area, but the world. >> reporter: by showing others how to give our salt marshes a fighting chance. all right, we've got a lot to talk about when it comes to weather because it's the weekend, and if i know paul like i think i do, he is planning a whole weekend of football viewing ahead of him. perhaps outside, even? do we have an outdoor tv yet, paul,

at your house? >> we do. >> oh, i knew it! and if i know paul again like i think i do, there's probably some very spicy wings involved in the plans. >> there may or may not be some spicy food involved. i'll actually be at the half moon bay art and pumpkin festival tomorrow. i'll show you that forecast coming up. let's look at the big picture pattern. we have clouds on the way, and even the potential for a little bit of drizzle, which we haven't seen much of to this point. now, as we head through tonight into tomorrow, the thickening clouds will impact visibility of the partial solar eclipse that peaks at 9:19 and a half tomorrow morning. this is pretty much the view you'll get, even if you're that lucky. a faint crescent. the best chance of cracks in the cloud over is inland eastbound in the santa clara valley. if you can get the cracks to appear overhead, be sure to use

eclipse glasses to safely view this one since it won't be a total eclipse. the half moon bay art and pumpkin festival, temperatures not bad. upper 60s saturday and sunday, but it will be a little damp. don't let it dampen your enthusiasm. we'll see just patches of drizzle throughout the first half of the day on saturday. the cloud cover overhead definitely taking a bite out of the amount of electricity that solar panels will generate. the number is basically cut in half saturday, but should be back to normal sunday. a few showers trying to hit the ground in the north bay, but most of that is evaporating on the way down. but no measurable rain recorded by any of the recording sites whether it's north of the golden gate or along the coast throughout the evening. switching over to futurecast. we have the potential for rain to actually hit the ground, especially along the coast of the north bay before the sun comes up tomorrow with the chance drifting further south

mid to late morning. plenty of clouds overhead. that's why we're pessimistic of the chances of seeing the partial eclipse overhead. the clouds stick around most of the day. the drizzle should dry up in the afternoon, but more clouds than sunshine throughout the day limiting how much the temperatures warm up. clearing from south to north sunday allowing temperatures to return to maybe slightly above average for the second half of the weekend. right now calm conditions. temperatures in the low to mid-60s for most of the bay area, but already down to 58 in santa rosa. it's not going to drop much more, but the rest of us end up in the 50s by tomorrow morning which is pretty close to normal for this time of year. not as cool as the past couple of mornings due to the layer of cloud cover just holding some of today's warmth near ground level. tomorrow's highs, where you see more sunshine peeking through, around 80 in the santa clara valley and inland east bay. those temperatures very close to average for this time of year as are the 60s for half

moon bay and san francisco and oakland. below average will be inland with a chance of splash and dash showers, and that limits how much the temperatures warm up. only into the lower half of the 70s. but you'll be in for a warm up through next week. here's the seven-day forecast. drop the map out of the way, and you can see temperatures will reach into the 80s sunday, retreating monday, but then back into the 80s, way into the 80s by the latter half of next week. even close to 90 for the peak of this next warm spell on thursday. temperatures around the bay will also warm up late next week, even up to around 80 in san francisco which is above normal, but it's not the extreme heat we had about a week or so ago. even temperatures along the coast after the drizzle is out of the way tomorrow, you're going to stay in the 60s for awhile. then temperatures warm up with additional sunshine peeking through by wednesday, thursday, and friday. you should return to the low 70s the latter half of next week. >> i know you're happy it's

friday night. >> always. >> thank you. still to come, these elite racers were in the middle of a marathon when they suddenly had to ride for their lives. matt? all right, one of the craziest games. a wild night with stanford and coach prime going at it. it just went final. plus the dubs finishing an endurance race is hard enough without actually having to run for your live.

police in wisconsin said this driver told them he just wanted to go home when he blew through a barricade and sped down the iron man course in madison. thankfully he didn't hit anyone, but he now faces reckless driving charges for endangerment. all right, college football. i feel like coach prime got me interested in college football again. >> you've been telling me you've been watching it. i don't blame you. it's been the best show in college football. the buffs have been derailed the last couple of weeks, so an easy opponent in the struggling stanford cardinal, this was a chance for a major bounce back. but not too fast. the buffaloes got off to a great start against the cardinal. it was 29-0 colorado at half time, but here comes the cardinal taking it 60 yards for the score. cuts the deficit to 29-19. we jump ahead to the final seconds.

stanford driving from the one yard line and into field goal range, they make the field goal forcing overtime. watch this catch in overtime. traps it on the back of colorado star travis hunter's helmet taking it in for his third touchdown of the night. game tied, second ot, drills it 31 yards out. it's the biggest comeback in stanford history. they rally from down 29 to 0. they stun deion and the buffaloes 46 to 43. best game i've seen in awhile. all right, talk about an expensive fashion statement. no, not me. george kittle was fined more than $13,000 for wearing a bleep dallas shirt during sunday's game. kittle says he has no regrets and would do it again. warriors in la facing lebron and the lakers in preseason action. opening

minutes, chris paul sets up steph curry for a three. curry points at cp3 before it even goes in. he scored 18 in the second quarter. the slam there. komingo had golden state with 26. jackson grabs the rebound, scores on the put back, gives the warriors the lead. they win it 129 to 125. and back to stanford for just a minute, biggest comeback in their history and a win over coach prime, that's something to be proud of. >> and i know you were excited for thursday night football for one reason, taylor swift in the box. she was cheering, gossipping with the parents. there was even a cardboard cut out of her outside the stadium.

so you know, matt, this is the third of the last four chiefs games that taylor has gone to. her attendance has sparked the tidal waves of tweets and memes about how she launched travis' career, and every time she shows up or leaves, she has a team of security and fans outside. that led to a pretty big question after the very first game she showed up to. how did she get out? >> was taylor swift carted out of the kansas city chief's game in a popcorn machine? >> fans waiting for her to leave after the first game never saw her exit, so they assumed she left in the popcorn cart. and if that sounds crazy to you matt, back in may at one of her concerts there was a broom cart and taylor herself popped out of it. wait for it,
