bearing fruit, he says, is the statewide california highway patrol organized retail crime task force in 2024 alone. it recovered over 13 million dollars in stolen goods, arrested more than 1400 suspects and conducted 777 investigations. he says his decision to add the additional chp patrols and resources to areas he describes as regional hotspots, including bakersfield. >> bernardino, san francisco and oakland helped get those results. but specifically in the city of oakland, he says he will discontinue his decision to an additional chp patrols. if the city does not take quick action to change its policy that says an officer can engage in a police pursuit only if the suspect is believed to have committed a violent crime or if there is a probable cause. the suspect is in possession of a gun. otherwise no pursuit. newsom says that policy hampers officers ability to do their job. this extreme. pursuit policy. you can run a red light.

build in. so that had to get to monday. you start to see things change and that pattern will be a little bit different. but between now and then we have some rain to pick up to the tune of almost an inch in the north bay. it between, you know, half an inch an inch and then about a quarter of an inch to about 3 quarters of an inch and the rest of the bay area. you can see santa cruz mountains like little pickup a little bit more than other folks. but here's the 7 day forecast and it's a pretty good looking forecast. once we get past the weekend. so once we get to monday, some nice sunshine. new year's eve looks like pretty good weather for that new year's day. we start off pretty nice with that, too, with a little sunshine. so a little more of a soggy run last couple of days this weekend. and then we're off to sunnier times next week. thank you. police are investigating a deadly shooting in oakland. it happened yesterday. >> a bar near the franklin recreation center. officers found one victim who had been shot several times. that person died at the scene. no arrests have been made. in the east bay police in antioch now

way through. and then sunday that push of rain that comes in sunday morning will go up to the sierra and bring anywhere from about 4 to 7 more inches of snow. so it's not a huge system, but just a little bit on top of what is all ready there. so today, obviously partly cloudy skies tomorrow. some cloudy skies there. so not bad. if you want to go skiing and then a little bit of that rain snow mix is going to start happening as we move into sunday. that will be the next push for them. all right. so take a look at the snow pack because obviously we've done pretty well this season so far overall in the state, our snow packs about 119% of average. we can see upper northern sierra. it's 180% and the central 99% 83 in southern sierra. so so far, so good. of course, we still have quite a ways to go in our season and we'll see how we do. but you can certainly see it when we take a look at halftime here, yosemite started off. we have no snow. now, obviously we've got these nice snow-covered peaks that are up there. an indication that things going pretty well for our snow pack, bringing it back to the bay area. we've been dealing with the cloudy skies today. this is a live look from the east bay, a little hazy out there.
