6:00 am
gold bond believes touch says everything. it says... i see you. i feel you. and...i know you. gold bond. get in touch with irresistibly touchable skin. i will never forget the picture that i have, i'm the only one that's not smiling. even though i'm with my close friends, i felt alone. i didn't feel pretty, i didn't feel confident. when i got invisalign, i built my confidence. it was the best investment that i could do. thank you so much for joining us this morning. we are so glad you are here. it is thursday, january 16th. >> let's open up the windows and start a new day together.
6:01 am
>> caution, fear, relief, elation. they're all in there but relief number one. >> this cease-fire is long overdue. >> a last-minute crisis holding up final approval of a cease-fire deal with hamas and gaza. we have the latest on the negotiations and how bay area communities are reacting to the deal. all the woke that they've put into coming here and like -- working their whole lives, it's -- like going downhill. >> just days before president-elect trump is set to take office, fear sweeping through the undocumented community in the bay area. plus the bay area helping those affected by the wildfires. we're live from manny's in san francisco where they're collecting donations and essentials. really love the fact that this is actually something that really helps the country and the world ultimately. >> the world's fastest supercomputer lives if livermore, we give you a look
6:02 am
inside the ground breaking research happening right here in the bay area. let's get this day started. >> good morning and thank you so much for joining us and starting a new day with us. always grateful to have you here, i'm reed cowan. >> i'm gianna franco with our meteorologist jessica burch as well and of course the latest forecast as we head into this thursday. man it's cold out this right now. we're talking about a frost advisory from santa rosa all the way down into the santa clara valley. on the map, heading outside this morning grab the jacket and grab anything to stay warm. we're talking about 30s just near livermore and actually past freezing all the way up into areas lake petaluma and now i'm going to drop the temperatures real fast because it's too cold for my taste personally and what's happening for us in the daytime highs? that's still our current temperature. here's our daytime highs for us all throughout the bay area. closer to the 70s down near san jose. los gatos. we might as well just call it 70. down into morgan hill a similar trend. now heading into this afternoon, expected to be a dry
6:03 am
sunny day for us. with beautiful conditions throughout this afternoon. we're still dealing with nice light winds and the sunrise around 7:23 is going to be stunning. the only thing i want to mention though and it might be a little bit hay zit out there in the coming days. still dealing with the moderate air quality right now and yesterday was a mixed bag and now we're starting to see the similar trend as we head into the weekend forecast. it's important to note and of course the offshore wind developing so it's still dry out there right now too. i'll have more on what that's going to look like for us in the coming days, for now over to you, gianna. jessica, thank you. you know, a little busy in some spots but look at this. here's a live look at the bay bridge. metering lights are on. it's a thursday. we would typically see a busier traffic pattern at this point. i think this is likely due to the crash on 80 right now westbound, now usually that's our busiest approach for the morning drive so right now, once you get past the crash, westbound 80 it's just before berkeley and actually move okay. but i'm going to zoom in here and you can see it's pretty backed up through the area all the way to
6:04 am
san pablo at this point. give a few extra minutes but looks better approaching the bay bridge toll plaza. right off the top in the headlines we begin with breaking news out of the middle east. just hours after news broke of deal. prime minister benjamin netanyahu signaling there's a last-minute crisis. israeli media suggesting the crisis may mean netanyahu's having a hard time internally with his right wing hard liners and his cabinet. who oppose parts of the agreement with hamas. meanwhile, as you are seeing here on your screen, bombing continued overnight in gaza leading up to the beginning of that cease-fire agreement planned for the weekend. so before news of that reported snag, reported by benjamin netanyahu, people on both sides of this war celebrated news that there could be a potential cease-fire and hostage release. >> that deal includes three phases, each lasting six weeks and the first phase is supposed to start sunday with hamasreleasing some of the nearly 100 hostages being held in exchange for hundreds of
6:05 am
palestiniaprisoners and israel would restart the flow of aid but again his cabinet needs to approve the deal first. >> bay area has seen major pushback against israel's war in gaza. you know, from encampment demonstrations on college campuses to protests taking over bridges. snarling traffic. our community conversation has been huge and very forceful. >> really has and our john ramos spoke with local israeli and palestinian supporters about the reported deal that appears this morning to still be in question. [ chanting ] >> reporter: for two groups that have agreed on almost nothing for more than a year, the response to the day's news left everyone feeling unsure of what they felt. >> caution, fear, relief, elation. they're all in there but relief is number one. >> we are heartbroken and relieved. this cease-fire is long overdue. >> reporter: this latest flare-up in the israeli palestinian saga began of course on october 7th of 2023.
6:06 am
with the coordinated surprise attack on israeli citizens by hamas. the savage violence, murder and kidnappings led many to believe it was meant to force israel into a massive response. it was something tyler gregory of the jewish community resource center foresaw as he addressed a jewish audience in san francisco the following day. >> while the first priority for israel is getting the terrorists out, the second priority is rescuing these hostages and a harrowing situation. and then we must be prepared and be resilient for the campaign that follows inside of gaza. >> reporter: the retaliation began almost immediately with israel releasing a furious attack including on civilian locations in gaza. and communities were reduced to rubble. as the campaign roared on, outraged palestinian supporters hit the streets with protests and civil disobedience and aimed at turning public opinion against the state of israel. sam says he can hardly believe that violence may
6:07 am
finally be ending. >> we've been out on the streets almost every week, you know, calling politicians and talking to our elected officials. you know, organizing with our neighbors. whatever we could possibly do, blocking highways and you name it. to get someone to get us to this point of cease-fire. the thought that maybe, maybe that might be ending today, that's -- it's huge. right? it's hard not to feel, you know, almost overwhelmed by the possibility that this carnage can stop. >> reporter: a temple beth abraham in oakland rabbi mark bloom acknowledged the local protests against israel took their toll leaving a lot of jewish residents feeling pretty isolated. >> yeah, we felt very alone as jews in this area. we thought people really didn't understand the existential threat or the horror that was faced on october 7th. so we definitely felt that. we also know that we live in the bay area and that's not necessarily the way the entire country feels. >> reporter: after so much rage and bloodshed, it's hard for anyone to feel completely confident that it may be coming to an end. but there is an
6:08 am
eerie similarity to the timing of this deal and what happened in 1981, when the iranian hostages were released just as ronald reagan another tough talking republican, was being sworn into office after defeating one term democrat jimmy carter. >> it does feel very carter/reagan vibes. the way this has gone down with biden and trump. it does feel somewhat like that. and actually there was even reported in the times of israel somebody said, you know, trump accomplished more, you know, in a couple of meetings than biden did in a year. >> no one last of all me would think that donald trump would be better for our communities. but it is interesting to note that it was his threats and his urging that this be resolved before he take office that coincides when and how this happened. >> reporter: there were no winners. israel still feels threatened and the question of palestine's future is still very much up in the air. on the
6:09 am
day the cease-fire was announced. people on both sides are wondering what, if anything, was accomplished by any of this. >> well, this morning, people in los angeles grateful to hear red flag warnings for wind have expired and that break in the weather really gives a boost to fir crews who are trying to gain the upper hand on the two largest fires. so we just got these new numbers on containment. the eaton fire is now 55% contained. that is such great news, more than half contained and meanwhile the palisades fire is 22% contained. but think about it. at least 25 people known to be dead. there are still several people missing. more than 12,000 buildings gone and you know little by little we are starting to see people allowed back into their neighborhoods. coming up a live report from los angeles at the fire line to show you more on what happened in the hours before disaster struck. gianna, it sounds like an investigation. >> yeah. i mean, sounds like it's going to take some time too to figure that out. back here if the bay area,
6:10 am
toke land firefighters say a house fire on lockard street could have been contained if a nearby fire station had not been closed due to budget cuts. firefighters say it took nearly three times as long for crews from the next closest station to respond. now thankfully, no one was home when the fire started and it was yesterday morning. oakland firefighters union local 55 say before the cuts 90% of fires were handled within four minutes and now they warn future closures would worsen response times. >> i mean we have two structure fires a day in oakland. it's a roll of the dice every single time. that is a very clear and truthful message full stop. >> a virtual town hall to address the station closures will be tonight at 6:00 p.m. moving on the map now this morning to oakland. where a community conversation on when police should chase bad guys is playing out right now officers can only chase people suspected in violent crimes or gun
6:11 am
offenses. if you ask governor newsom he's going to tell you the oak l policy is too restrictive. in fact, interim city council president guy owe feels like the current policy only incentivized the bad guys to rob and run. >> i see the robberies that are occurring and people come out of town and robbed them and take it off in their car and officers sitting there watching. >> ramping up the pressure, governor gavin newsom warning oakland leaders to revise the policy or risk losing the chp support that he sent in to try to curb crime in recent weeks. moving on the map now to san francisco. mayor daniel lurie introduced his first law called the fentanyl state of emergency ordinance and it's aimed to end san francisco's fentanyl crisis. streamline hiring and contracting for services and encourage his private funding for addiction and mental health and homeless resources. the ordinance requires approval from the board of supervisors. we're going to ask sheriff miyamoto about that coming up at 6:45. but you are seeing the young faces on your screen and that's because we have a
6:12 am
tragedy to report. a car crash has a bay area school community in mourning. three hollister high school students killed in that crash near gilroy tuesday night. police say the driver lost control and hit an oncoming car. police say a former student was also critically injured in that crash. so sad. all right, well, president joe biden giving his farewell address last night after more than 50 years in federal politics. details on his closing message for the country. that's up next. we continue our coverage on the devastating wildfires in los angeles. san francisco firefighters shoulder to shoulder with so many firefighters and we have a
6:13 am
6:14 am
"the doctor will see you now." but do they really? do they see all that you are? at kaiser permanente all of us work together to care for all that is you.
6:15 am
welcome back. it is 6:14 in the morning and it's farewell address to the nation, president joe biden capped off a decades long political career warning americans of a forming ole guardky in the united states leadership structure. he used strong words and he also warned about social media companies stopping the practice of fact checking on their platforms and expressed concerns about facts being overtaken by lies online. meanwhile, incoming president donald trump watching closely, confirmation hearings for his incoming government and another day of confirmation hearings
6:16 am
happening today at bat trump's picks to lead the treasury and interior and housing and urban development departments. we're watching. well, bay area fire crews shoulder to shoulder with l. a. firefighters, there's good news this morning. think making huge progress and they're kind of getting a break in the wind to try and increase containment. >> at least 25 people have died and more than 12,000 structures have been destroyed. charlie de mar joining us live from los angeles once again where officials are now grappling with some tough questions charlie about what happened in the hours before this disaster struck. >> reporter: reed and gianna, good morning. you nailed it. those winds have subsided and giving firefighters a little relief and hopefully being able to contain this fire even further. the eaton fire which just devastated the community that we are in this morning is only about 50% just under 50% contained at this point. this, as there are new questions this morning over the fire department resources and the amount of resources that were deployed before the fire
6:17 am
started. weakening winds offered a much-needed break for firefighters battling the southern california fires. but now questions swirl over what happened before the deadly flames spread. >> it's the actions that we take prior to that wind event ever starting that are going to make the most difference. >> reporter: cbs news has confirmed that as the palisades fire started on the morning of january 7th, only 19 fire engines were pro deployed to the area. it's unclear how many, if any, were sent to the first neighborhood on fire. hours passed before officials sent out this notice to bring in off-duty firefighters. >> i can guarantee you that every resource that was available was working and focused on the mission. >> reporter: the glassmans returned to find a diamond in the rough. among the ruins of their palisades home. >> i thought i was nest going to see it again. so happy. pure joy.
6:18 am
>> reporter: sorrow for jordan mitchell who was not hospital when his wheelchair father and brother with cerebral palsy died in the eaton fire. he says his father called for help but no one came. >> dying in a fire is not a pretty way to go. >> reporter: crosses now line fences honoring the more than two dozen victims of the most destructive wildfires in california history. the atf is investigating the palisades fire. that is the largest wildfire that is still burning. the atf says they've already received over 150 leads and they are busy scouring videos on social media, home surveillance video, and also cell phone video taken by residents in the moments that these fires started. reed, gianna? >> right, there's the recovery and there's is you know, trying to get the fires out but then also this investigation, charlie, thank you for that update from the fire lines and coming up at 7 7:00 7:00 -- over on pix+ 44 cable 12, you are going to hear directly from
6:19 am
the sentence firefighters who had major wins. that's coming up in a live interview. we are so proud of the men and winter storm watch the san francisco fire department. >> oh my gosh doing such inthey believe work. >> there are others from marin and east bay everywhere. right. >> incredible. jess. >> yes, frosty the -- cold man? >> i know. right? >> visiting us. >> that's exactly his face. >> new tattoo. all right, here's what's happening for us as we wake up and head out the door this morning, it's pretty cool out there. i mean we're talking about 30 degrees for the friends all the way up into areas like -- this is the daytime highs by the way. 60s in the forecast for us but let's pull up the current temperatures. 30 degrees near petaluma and 303 in livermore and makes sense why the national weather service issued the frost advisory you see all around me in the blue color. kind of isolated to the valleys actually up near napa and sonoma and down into the santa clara valley too. even though we're already zitting at 4 # degrees from los gatos into san jose. cycle one more time here we go. we're expecting to see 60s in the forecast today and
6:20 am
anywhere from the santa clara valley oh my i love when technology doesn't work with me. upper 60s in the forecast down near san jose and los gatos. anywhere from redwood city all the way up into san francisco. it's a pretty mild setup for us today honestly and sunny skies in the forecast widespread throughout the bay area. we still have that light offshore wind and here's where you can expect as we head in the afternoon hours today. for the most part, i mean, we're just seeing dry conditions not only today but throughout the next seven days. the climate prediction center showing drier than normal conditions widespread through the state of california and all along the west coast. reason being the jet stream is well north of us. so it's bringing all that moisture closer to canada and then it's just completely missing us and continuing to sweep off closer to the dakotas. now as we look at the long-range models we'll continue to keep a close eye on that because recently, we have kind of wanted the rain. or at least needed it. right? and of course up into the sierra-at-tahoe area they can always use fresh powder too but that is what we're getting for the next seven days. a little cold front is going to sweep through actually and cool us
6:21 am
off just a bit more. upper 50s by sunday into monday and see clear conditions as we head into next week. and that's just our inland forecast. as we head over into the bay it's a very similar setup. anywhere from san francisco across the beautiful bay bridge you see behind me. upper 60s -- actually mid- to low 60s today and upper 50s by friday. gianna? okay. jessica, let's take a live look here at bay bridge toll plaza, so you know just a couple of minutes ago when we showed you this live shot that was hardly any backup or traffic. well, look how quickly that changed you know. this was due because of the crash westbound 80 working through berkeley this morning. we had a lot of boots from an accident there. it's now -- moving out of lanes and over to the shoulder, but that really changed that traffic pattern heading towards the bay bridge. this looks a little bit more normal now. with that backup heading over into san francisco. but still pretty busy ride early on here. there's still some activity on the right hand side of the roadway too. keep that in mind. now the richmond-san rafael bridge looks good if you want to make that ride across there over towards 101. if you are heading south of there to the golden gate bridge, no delays. over in the altamont pass, out
6:22 am
of tracy, that's a busy commute this morning. it extends all the way to north flynn. getting word of a hotspot there just past the connector from 205. but overall, it's business as usual. and a live look at 880 both directions we're seeing some busy conditions here just a little crowded. reed? all right, time right now 6:21. a bay area machine helping enhance national security. up next, we'll take you to livermore on map home of the world's fastest supercomputer. and here's a live look outside before we head to break. it is thursday, i see you, weekend. before we heads to break how about a live look over towards san jose as we say good morning to our friends down in the south bay? so far your 101 drive
6:23 am
6:24 am
6:25 am
i'm johnny mosley. the mountains are calling. the toyota is packed up and ready to go. but before we get out there, let's take a look at what the conditions are like. the toyota tahoe report is ready to go and let's head over to the map. >> all right. just like us here in the bay it's been pretty dry for our friends all the way over into tahoe. so you head down to kirkwood or maybe one of my favorites heavenly if you have that epic pass it's epic conditions and there's no new snow. but that doesn't mean that they don't have amazing machine conditions at the base or at least that packed powder all the way up to the summit. but let's head more north now. kings beach and maybe incline
6:26 am
village, it's beautiful conditions for all of the friends over at palisades and north star. we're going to continue to watch any new winter storms that can bring in more fresh powder for us but for now the resorts are taking really good care of all the slopes out there. of course this was your tahoe toyota ski report. we'll continue to keep you updated on your forecast. focus in the bay area community of livermore this morning. home to the world's fastest supercomputer. this thing is way smarter than me. called the el capitan. >> you are pretty smart just saying. >> i don't have all those wires plugged in. >> well, it plays a key role in national security and the $600 million el capitan consisting of over 11,000 computers is driving ground-breaking research in nuclear weapon aging and climate modeling and gene analysis. now in its early access phase, it will soon process classified data with a
6:27 am
peak performance of 2.79 quintillion calculations per second and el capitan far exceeds the capabilities of previous supercomputers. >> when people talk about running on high performance computers, this is the main thing. i really love the fact that this is actually something that really helps the country and the world ultimately. in doing this research. >> well, they praise the lab's critical role in enhancing national security and i can't -- we actually are are going to have the full story on this in the 7:00 hour on pix+ 44 cable 12. there's more to this. i want to learn more about this. i find this incredibly fascinating and because my husband works in the kind of industry and i'm always like learning so much. so cool. >> and i mean, talk about destined for greatness by virtue of your name. pieing thats are watson you just heard from there. our supercomputer the teleprompter and the digital clock, remember those? way back
6:28 am
when. says 6:27. bay area businesses stepping up to help those affected by devastating l. a. wildfires and listen there's no genius like goodness and kindness right? you can't compete with that. it just comes from the heart. and up next we're live from manny's in san francisco talking to manny who is holding a donation drive that you can be a part of to do something good for southern california
6:29 am
6:30 am
6:31 am
your community station watching the ravages in southern california. lot of families and fire crews getting a break from the winds that fueled these destructive wildfires. more than a week now and there's good news today to report on containment. it is growing this morning. so 55% containment in the eaton fire and 22% for the palisades fire. >> and good news for firefighters. battling those fires right now. but really what is sobering and heart-breaking is 25 people have died and sadly that number is expected to go up. and now price gouging is making it harder for thousands of fire victims to find a place to stay. the recovery process will be long and difficult. so when help is needed, the bay area steps up with so many impacted by the wildfires in southern california. we are seeing really the outpouring of generosity and so much support. reed. >> always a touchstone for community conversations and engagement and manny's in san francisco is having a week long drive in the mission district of donation boxes to fill the boxes up for people who have lost everything. >> so we are live at manny's
6:32 am
this morning and the owner manny uchitel joining us to talk more about what we're hearing and seeing and really manny, you know thank you for doing this and opening up the idea of people bringing stuff to donate to those who are in need. but are you -- you know, hearing from community members about what's their motivation and how they want to help? >> well. >> first of all, it was one community member the man standing to my right around the corner here, daniel who actually proposed the idea to me. he grew up minutes from the eaton fire. him an opportunity to tell you all why he thought this was important. >> thanks manny. and thanks so much for covering this. like manny said i grew up minutes from the eaton fire and my family evacuated over a week ago and just went back. we were one of the lucky families that whose house is still standing but every day we're learning of five more friends and families that weren't so lucky and have lost everything and the neighboring town of altadena is almost gone. but
6:33 am
the community is strong and it's resilient and there's a lot of resolve to build back and somanny who is also from l. a., jumped on the opportunity immediately when i proposed that we do something to support the community. and there's been a ton of engagement from the community. i mean you can see behind us we have -- basically overflowing with boxes and this is net of sending five trucks down to los angeles already. >> we love that. good to have you here on the community station. so what is the power of stepping forward to do something when you know so many people have lost so much? i mean, so many of us have just been on social media just swiping and swiping and you can go from tragedy to tragedy to tragedy and you can almost be left in a dark ally and what is the power of having an outlet to do something with all of is that pain -- that pain and all of that hurt? >> i think it's the only option. isn't it? right. we all have a part to play in our
6:34 am
future. and we cannot believe that we are just passive observers of what happens in the world around us. and especially in san francisco. we were made for this moment. san francisco was born out of tragedy. born out of disaster. born out of the need for people to come together and to make it through hard times. and so and manny's obviously what we're all about is giving people a physical place and an opportunity to get involved and i have to tell you guys i have been completely overwhelmed by the outpouring of physical support. by people coming from the moment we've been -- we've opened our doors into the moment we closed them people have been bringing everything they can to support these folks. in times like this i think it's really the only thing that we can do to -- ask the question how can we get involved and how can we help? and san francisco is showing up in this moment. >> love it. >> so good to see and you are so right. this is what we do as a community. come together to help those in need. we showed some video of all the boxes and you know tell us what do you really need? what can bring
6:35 am
people that's most useful for people affected by the fires? >> sure, so -- the needs are evolving every day and we're in touch with dozens of organizations, shelters, and relief centers on the ground in los angeles who are sharing their needs. one thing that we're hearing they don't need is clothes. so we have not been accepting adult clothes but we're accepting ten categories of other items that have generally been consistent across the day-to-day basis. they are storage products and new undergarments and n95 masks and i'm looking around and kids' toys and hygiene products and feminine hygiene products. nonperishable foods. and there's a couple more. so -- if you have any of these items we'll be accepting i think today is the last day. >> yes. today until 8:00 p.m. >> that's right. and we're -- rear really fortunate to have the whole community of volunteers actually who are driving these items down to los angeles to specific
6:36 am
destinations that we've been giving them. >> love it. it's always great to have you manny and always flexing your muscle and connecting community but my goodness. you have been doing some bicep workouts we're doing to bring you on for an exercise segment next. >> teach me. >> wow. [ laughter ] i got -- listen, i got to look good for you guys. >> you nailed it. you nailed it. >> so funny. i appreciate it. >> good to see you my friend. >> we're ending this today 8:00 p.m. and please come on by. >> i have a surprise coming to you from marin county. a whole bunch coming. thanks manny. if you'd like to help the victims of the wildfires, this is just one outlet down at manny's but you can also do this. if you can't get down there, cbs partnering with the red cross and you can call 1-800-red-cross and you can go to redcross.org/cbs or you can text red cross to 90999 to make a $10 donation. just outlets and look we're all hurting and we have the pain. what do you do with that pain? it can cause
6:37 am
you to become an angry person or disillusioned with the world or you can transform the pain into purpose this morning and that's an example in the mission district today. >> why have you not noticed mine and you are over here calling his out? >> it's inappropriate according to the company handbook. >> i do push-ups in the back hallway during commercial breaks. >> i very much admire your exercise prowess. >> i needed that. what's happening heading outside and we -- we wake up this morning to some chilly temperatures out there and i mean we're talk about daytime highs in the 60s and later into this afternoon. throughout the bay. but what we're waking up to this morning, it's a lot cooler and i mean we're close to freezing level near livermore and we head all the way up into petaluma. 43 over -- 42 in oakland and san francisco and just a little bit cooler conditions along the shoreline. now as we head into this afternoon, it will be a nice pleasant day for us and i mean we're talking about light winds pushing offshore and
6:38 am
we're not dealing with the best air quality. we're sitting in the moderate category right now. and that's actually the trends as we head into this weekend. so that's only downside to the forecast but other than that the light winds continue to push offshore throughout this afternoon. and anywhere up to around 5, 10 miles per hour maybe. the other big weather story for us i mean look behind me. for the next seven days, it's dry as can be. not a drop of rain in sight and the reason why actually is because the ridge of high pressure that's been keeping us pretty dry and of course those offshore winds developing, that's still sitting directly next to us out in the pacific and it's allowing for the jet stream to stay north of us and so all that moisture is going all the way into canada and then right back over into the dakotas, but back here hokily dry conditions this weekend and early next week at least for the next six to ten days. if folks are driving westbound 80 a busy one this morning. we have a crash that's cleared ouch lanes and not so great news is the backup into berkeley pretty significant. kind of changed the traffic pattern at bay
6:39 am
bridge toll plaza. but if you are headed that direction westbound you can see it's backed up and metering lights are on and a sloe commute into the city. travel times at about 32 minutes if you are clocking that from highway 4 over to the maze. some pretty slow speeds there. also busy on 580 in the altamont pass. that's about a 46 minute commute. reed? well, moving on the map to oakland now as they face a massive budget crisis. the race for who's going to lead oakland as mayor is getting more crowded and more competitive. former city council member lauren taylor, filing papers to run this morning. so supporters will join mr. taylor on the steps of city hall. now he ran for mayor back in 2022 when he lost to the now recalled mayor sheng thao. taylor will face off against former congresswoman barbara lee. the special election for the mayoral race is expected in april. looking live at good samaritan hospital in san jose. today as part of the national day of action, local nurse members of national nurses united walking off the job to rally. they are demanding safer
6:40 am
staffing levels and protections they say against artificial intelligence. thousands of registered nurses all across the bay area are expected to take part in that national day of action. the rally expected to start at 7:00 a.m. about 20 minutes. well, president-elect trump will be sworn into office four days from now during his second term. he promised a swift crackdown onillegal immigration even potential mass deportations. immigration sweeps were carried out this week in the central valley and some farm workers and others are really scared the show up to work. here in the bay area advocates worry they are just a foreshadowing of what's to come. our veronica macias reports on how local nonprofits are working to educate people about their rights in the event of a bay area deportation. >> reporter: like millions of children across the country, tiffany is worried about her parents who are two of nearly 1.8 million undocumented immigrants in california.
6:41 am

6:54 am
>> don't get me started. >> with the dumplings. >> do you dump them in? >> that's the fries. here's what's happening for us. the reason why is because we're under a frost advisory right now anywhere from santa rosa all the way down off in the east bay in the valleys. and stretched down into the santa clara valley too. as we take a look at temperatures this morning, i mean we're close to freezing in areas like livermore and we're below freezing all the way up near petaluma so very chilly conditions and this is the time of year where you have to take those outdoor pets and give them extra love and bring them inside. it's always the time of year where if you do have outdoor vegetation you should be very careful and maybe bring those plants inside too. give them some love as well. here's what's happening as we head outside today. and tomorrow. and pretty much for the rest of this week. we have light offshore winds developing as we head into this afternoon. and anywhere up to around 5 to 10 miles per hour at max. i want to bring that up though because earlier this week we were dealing with some gusty conditions and our friends down in southern california we are experiencing it ten times worse. now back here locally, our air quality is seeing in that moderate category and you
6:55 am
see just yellow across the stream. continue to see a similar trend too this weekend. if you are sensitive just be very careful out there as you go outside. now our rainfall outlook is showing drier than normal conditions for us here locally and widespread through the state of california. here locally, there's not a drop of rain really in sight in the next seven days so keep that in mind for any outdoor plans though. i bring this up for a reason. as we head into this weekend, and early next week, we'll continue to see these dry conditions stick around. but a little bit cooler weather in the forecast and meaning these slow 60s we have right now we're going to start flirting with upper 50s into the weekend and heading into next week's forecast too. dry conditions means it's a great opportunity to head out there and maybe do a nice trail walk and up in the marin headlands and maybe you want to go all the i way up to the sierra-at-tahoe area and get some skiing in. dry up there for them too. for now over to you, gianna. let's talk traffic and some of it if you are headed it looks like at least southbound 880 out of hayward working into
