>once again, we are feeling lucky weather wise compared to other parts of the country. several areas facing severe weather this week, the governor of kentucky has announced that 15 people, 14 people rather have now been killed in floods. first responders are out rescuing people across the state, with almost 300 people rescued in martin county alone yesterday. it comes as kentucky braces for another winter storm. the governor is urging anybody without power to stay with a friend or at a shelter. in massachusetts, a combo of snow, ice and wind left more than 2000 people without power. and in north andover, an ice

covered tree fell onto a home and a car. that storm brought down another tree in sterling. crews working to clear the ice from high traffic areas to prevent accidents. well, by some estimates, los angeles is facing up to $275 billion in damage from last month's wildfires. and that is creating a huge dilemma for a lot of homeowners. >here in los angeles in the aftermath of disaster. the question is whether to rebuild or retreat. i'm mark strassmann, and that's our eye on america. on tonight's cbs evening news. >and mark strassmann joining us live now. thanks for being with us. can you talk a little bit about some of the damage that you witnessed on the ground there in l.a.? >and great to talk to you. sure. i mean, walking around these neighborhoods in los angeles. i mean, if you've ever seen the aftermath of an individual house fire anywhere where you just your gut tells you, you know what, this family has just lost everything. you know how wrenching that moment must be for that family. so now

imagine house by house, block by block. entire neighborhoods just sort of completely burned off the map. and you get a sense of of los angeles. and the challenge that los angeles now has to rebuild. and that's true whether you're talking about a working class neighborhood like altadena or a fancy neighborhood like malibu. they face the same uphill struggle, and it's clearly going to be a significant rebuild. one of the epic rebuilds in urban rebuilds in modern american history. >yeah. >>and that but that is essentially the moment that los angeles is facing. >it really does seem like an insurmountable task. and of course, we've seen this on a bit of a smaller scale here in northern california. and a lot of people, when you go to these fire zones, say, we have to rebuild, we want to rebuild. that's a lot of people's initial reactions. but from what you're hearing about people a few weeks after, are they still planning on rebuilding or retreating? >yeah, and i think that's the goal in the minds of many people and the hearts of many people is, is that they want to rebuild. they love their house. if they could snap their fingers and magically make it

reappear, they would if they could make their neighborhood reappear, they would. i'm not sure that's realistic. in many cases, they have such an uphill climb. they have insurance questions to deal with. and so for a lot of families, there's going to be a gut check, a reality check of can we afford to do this if even if we want to do this? and that's the, i think, a challenge that's going to be facing many families in the weeks ahead. >and i know you spoke with a fire historian down there in l.a. he had some cautionary tales about rebuilding. >yeah, i mean, here in los angeles, you're talking about a 40 year drought. you're talking about very dry vegetation. and then the santa ana winds came along. his essential point is, are we really going to rebuild and set ourselves up for another big fire disaster like the one we just had back in january? would it be smarter for government to come in and buy out some of these people and move them to less fire prone areas? it would take money. it would take political will. but there is some precedent for that. and we talk about that in our piece on cbs evening news tonight. should

these folks essentially allow themselves to rebuild in areas that they know are problematic? >yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it is a real tough question. all right. thank you mark. and you can catch mark strassman's piece on tonight's eye on america that's coming up on the cbs evening news starting at 4:00. back to our first alert weather forecast. taking a live look over the bay right now really is a nice day, but it sounds like those clouds are about to start building back in. let's check back in with meteorologist jessica burch. >it is a beautiful day for us today here in the bay area, as we're gearing up for daytime highs to top off in the low 60s near san francisco across the bay bridge, which you see behind me in that live cam over in oakland. and we're seeing a similar forecast all throughout the north bay as we make our way down into the santa clara valley. upper 60s are in store for us today in the santa clara region, anywhere from san jose over to los gatos. but as we head into the next couple of days, a cold front approaches us as early as tomorrow morning, and that's going to drop all these temperatures down by about 3 to 5 degrees. so let's dive into that

forecast. starting off with today, the winds are relatively light. yesterday it was a little bit breezier along the coast with gusts up to around 20mph. well today closer to around 15mph at max. the rest of us are going to see light conditions into the afternoon and evening hours. tonight the clouds start to accumulate into the overnight hours tonight, and then we get a quick splash of showers for tomorrow. and we're going to time that out right now, so you can kind of see how fast the system moves through into the afternoon hours we go. we're just seeing mostly cloudy skies in the forecast. that becomes a lot more dense into the overnight hours, just ahead of this cold front that pushes through tomorrow morning around 910, 11 a.m. and by the time we even blink, that system moves off to the east and we clear up into the afternoon hours with just a little bit cooler weather in the forecast in total tomorrow, we'll see close to around 100th of an inch of rain up into the north bay, potentially along the coast to near pacifica, up into san francisco. but for the rest of us, down into the santa clara valley, it stays pretty much dry. let's take a quick look at the next seven days. we're gearing up for drier weather after wednesday and

sunnier skies to. not only are we dealing with that, but we're also getting a nice warm up as well as we head into this weekend's forecast with 70 right around the corner as we head into saturday and sunday for the santa clara valley, the east bay and potentially up into the north bay will at least hit the upper 60s. now, speaking of upper 60s, that's the case for our friends along the bay as early as friday. this is going to be an amazing weekend ahead of us with beautiful dry weather, sunnier skies around the corner. two definitely feels a little bit more spring like here in the bay. >up next here on cbs news, bay area scammers are impersonating toll collectors. what experts say you should do if you get one of these scam texts i've gotten one. we'll talk about it when we return. >so. vlad, we are connected. now more than ever. our phones are. our. lifelines and the rush. charge universe is going to keep our devices powered while on the go. i love these. notice no cord, no cables. we're not tethered to an outlet. 100%. you just plug it into your
