8:14 am
of the way of some high cloudiness off towards the coast. this half moon bay for you. look at a nice, peaceful, see a place here or peaceful. see something. yeah. so what's going on with the cold temperatures we have up in the north bay is where the concentration of this is. this is a freeze warning for all these valleys until 10 this morning and going to repeat that again tomorrow at 10:00am what has not happened is the east bay hasn't gotten involved in any of this because we haven't seen temperatures fall enough. it's only been pretty much up in north bay valleys. also, it's kind of interesting a bit as right up above us. not that shocking, but right up above us, it's really dry. it's like art right. and it probably would be close to like that at the surface. but we have all this water around here and that keeps the dew points a little bit more elevated than they would naturally be to go up. but 1000 feet really get that dry pretty much the same until you go way high up. so that's what some of the high cloudiness, what kind of linger in spill on over from the larger synoptic systems 30's up to the north bay right now you have 44 from ever more chilly. 37 still hanging on for concord. 42 for any off.
8:15 am
45 for hayward? there's a nice mild, 50 coming in for half moon bay. 43 san jose stormtracker four's. what i mention again, some of that high cloudiness and thinking up at times for tomorrow. but it really is not that impressive. looking at all the models in terms of seeing this cloud cover come our way. but this is somewhat reminiscent of what we had from last week. just move the playas a little differently. this high-pressure zone in our backyard. this further south yesterday. so this is drifting to the north. this go around. so it's kind of blocking the major systems from dropping in south here. so we're getting to some of higher clouds with all of this future cast for was run through it. your, not much to see tomorrow. do want to mention maybe some scattered clouds working their magic magic here. just a touch there. but on balance, going to see a lot of sunshine this weekend, a night point that out specifically because it's a different story as we go more long range east bay shoreline here. we've got a start. 30's happening inland today tomorrow. mostly sunny and 60 is for those highs next week. we've got coastal bay
8:16 am
clouds, mostly sunny inland, pretty much 60 ish. and as we head on into the weekend, we've got rain showers return and it looks like we've got a lot of consistency. it looks like it's fairly potent as well. maybe just enough to not have any issues or problems with it. but the timing and all of that to 3e determined as we get a little closer, see if the intensity holds up there. sometimes these things could be very organic and change 60 for san francisco. 61 oakland, 64 for san jose. not a lot of moving even well inland. in fact, dropping off for the quirkiness straight. 57 all the way off the antioch, lower 60's up north. these are highs now and lower 60's on the east bay shoreline will get more into this. checking out your 4 zone forecast and also that extended as you start mentioning about that rain coming next weekend. stephanie. >> all right, dave, thank you. 2 months into the israel-hamas war and international efforts for another cease-fire are falling short. the united nations security council met earlier today. the un secretary general says the delivery of humanitarian aid to the area is becoming nearly

impossible. and people are suffering. the un failed to pass a vote that would formally call for a ceasefire with united states. the only member nation to vote against the resolution. >> that is a higher of the total collapse of the minutes that in support system gaza, which would have devastating consequences. >> well, the u.s. does not support a cease-fire. it has warned israel it must do more to limit civilian casualties. the hamas-run health ministry putting the death toll there at more than 16,000 since the war began. secretary of state antony blinken saying the u.s. expects major fighting to be over but early january. san francisco police say a group of burglars used a car to smash open a cvs and steal an atm kron. four's gayle ong has the details. >> overnight, some people came through with possibly 2 cars and busted through front of the cbs here.
8:18 am
>> and drag the atm. and this is the aftermath. shoppers showing up to this cvs on 32nd avenue near clements street in the city's richmond district. stopping by to a closed store friday. san francisco police say the call came in just before 03:00am for a reported burglary. witnesses told officers at least 5 unknown suspects broke into the store using a vehicle through the front door, then stole an atm machine. the suspects then got into a getaway car and fled the scene. it's frustrating. it's very frustrating. >> we've got to do a better job of. having consequences for actions that people take. this is the case for automated license plate readers are john phil. how are lives in the neighborhood? and he's running for city supervisor. she is referring to mayor london breed's legislation to install 400 new automated license plate readers. automated license plate readers will allow police 2. find the perpetrators of these of the criminals who committed this crime. what it does is it's a network of cameras that will allow police to do their job.
8:19 am
in a statement to kron 4 city supervisor connie chan who covers this district acknowledged the recent crime in the neighborhood. a statement reads in part, quote, last wednesday, i presided over a hearing at the budget and finance committee and approved the san francisco police department's request to accept a 50 million dollar state grant to tackle retail theft as a result, the police department will be receiving 400 automated license plate readers to help investigate and prevent crimes. citywide. meantime, the store remained closed for much of the day as crews cleaned up the mess. sad. it's just sad to hear about stuff like that happening. scary. i'm just glad no one was hurt. >> everyone is okay. >> things can be replaced. >> and that was kron four's. gayle ong reporting for us today. for your money. there's a new plan by the white house to lower the price of prescription drugs. kron four's catherine heenan explains. >> it's a fancy title call marchan right?
8:20 am
>> the health and human services secretary says this proposal would allow the federal government to open the door to cheaper generic drugs. if the major drug companies refuse to lower prices when taxpayers help fund the invention of a particular medicine, therefore, it's available on the market because taxpayers help make available. then we have the right >> to go in march and say, wait this is incorrect. >> the possible scenario the government taking away a license for a drug and giving it to a company that makes it cheaper. generic version. the room must undergo a 60 day review before the government can do anything. and some consumer advocates want even stronger measures, just potentially like a very broad check on pharmaceutical monopoly. power and price abuse. >> the actual guidance that the administration has issued indicates that it would only be used in circumstances. >> the pharmaceutical industry not surprisingly, is pushing
8:21 am
back on this, arguing it could stifle the development of new drugs. as for whether the government would actually march in an up and a drug license that remains to be seen. some experts believe just the threat of that could likely lead to lower prices. >> well, state lawmakers are weighing in after the biden administration announced it is spending billions to finish california's high-speed ail project kron four's capitol correspondent eytan wallace reports. >> we're looking at the future of high-speed rail in california. a project that has been under construction and development for several years now. and one that eventually seeks to connect southern california to northern california. and now the project is getting a boost in the form of a 3 plus billion dollar federal investment from the biden administration. >> california leaders including former house speaker nancy pelosi, responding to the news on this zoom call this massive federal investment takes us one step
8:22 am
