not big thing is just a lovely, brisk seabreeze weather headlines today. light rain especially in the north bay. but you'll want to keep your umbrella with you just in case because by tomorrow morning, heavier rain and stronger when will be pretty much everywhere. and that is the last hurrah. this is the i the last hurrah. this is the i will sa surf advisories for well starting tomorrow morning at 4 o'clock. and finally, we see clear skies by monday and some cold morning temperatures, high and this is for 18 to 25 foot waves. this is going to be really something. these are large breaking waves pushing right up against the coastline, tough to swim. and so if you're an inexperienced swimmer, stay away from that. stay away from the beach. if you don't want to get knocked over by a wave futurecast, this is the forecast model showing us today. we've got the precipitation very light. it goes away fairly quickly. and then here's tomorrow's stronger winds, stronger rain and some snow in the sierra. and that goes away. and here is your monday. and then we go

in as high pressure builds in. here you are for tuesday. this is your new year's eve. and then for wednesday, the brand new day, first day of 2025. it is dry. high pressure holds tight. so what we've got air temperature for future rain totals. a lot more in the north of the state than it is here. we're going to see through sunday about about midday or so that the end of the rain not so much across the bay area, very little in the south bay forecast. high temperatures 50's and 60's today. and as you look ahead at the next 7 days dries out on monday. and we've got just great conditions because you know what? we're going to see dry weather all the way through new year's eve into new year's day and beyond. so we're in for a treat. and right now it's back to stephanie for news. all right. sounds great. thanks for the good news there. kathy, by this time next month, san francisco will have a new mayor marking the end of london breed's historic tenure. >> kron four's noelle bellow

reports. >> london breed. i am president of the san francisco of supervisors and soon to be mayor of the city and county of. >> in london breed says it's been an honor to serve as mayor of her hometown. >> but it's been crisis after crisis after crisis. it is with profound sadness that i confirm. >> mayor edwin m lee. >> passed away early this f% morning thrust into the spotlight following the sudden death of mayor ed lee breed was tested early and often as mayor, most notably having to leave the city through a pandemic. please. >> for all of us. >> make smart decisions when it mattered. when we needed to save lives. i really feel proud that i was able to step up and and helped lead the city's. you feel like you're turning over the city too? >> the mayor elect in a better state than where you found it? i think overdose deaths are declining. we're getting

people off the street. crime is lower than it's been in over a decade breeds statistics paint a picture of positive change during her tenure. >> but she admits numbers don't tell the whole story. people think that. >> you know, well, you know, numbers are one thing. and if you don't feel safer, if something happens to you, they don't matter. in major cities, things are going to happen. but here's the difference. we now have a different kind of response. we now when those crimes are committed, people getting arrested. they are getting prosecuted. you know, they're getting provided with second chances if they're struggling with addiction. but there's accountability. and i think that has been the game changer for us and why we're seeing such a difference. i never thought. >> the opportunity to be mayor of the city and county of san francisco was possible. >> agreed is the 45th mayor of san francisco and the first black woman elected to that office. but perhaps more informing her legacy. she

became the city's first mayor in 5 decades who attended public school in san francisco. i think it was not just about being black, but they someone who grew up in poverty in this city. >> and had, you know, the kinds of experiences i had. i mean, i grew up in the midst of the crack epidemic. there was gun violence. there was last. there was hopelessness. there was poverty. i mean, it just every decision that i made had everything to do with understanding when people have had to live like that, like i've lived like in fear that, you know, the city and government can be transformative in helping to change, you know, and save lives. we have one of our lowest numbers of encampments that we had even since before the pandemic. people wanted to see things right away. and i understand and respect that because i felt the same way. but i'm so glad that people are starting to see the difference. while the most recent federal count shows fewer people are sleeping

outside. that same count shows an increase in the number of homeless people without permanent housing. >> while the city continues to fall well, short of state mandated housing goals breed says recent changes will help her accomplish her goal of creating more places to live in san francisco. the stuff we've done here on the local level >> will have impacts after leave office for housing production in san francisco in theirs. nothing that could be done to stop these units from being built within the past. the obstruction was always at the local level. obviously there's a new mayor. there are several new members of the board of supervisors as well that are going to be coming. and what is your advice for those and coming there's a lot of lot of new people that are very, you know, >> and i think what's more important is i think it's probably don't act like, you know, everything, mayors and supervisors, they come and go. but whenever you're in a

leadership position and you're fortunate enough to be able to serve in this capacity. >> make it about the city and not necessarily about yourself.

>> it's 12 this morning live look outside at the golden gate bridge. not too many people out there at this hour. probably can i say dia to stay in just indoors. watching kron 4 weekend morning news and just bundling up, maybe with your dog next to you, kathy, what? that sounds like perfect morning. it is great what you're looking at the golden gate bridge or the view from the berkeley hills. that is just the color of the day. you can barely make out the trees through the shroud of gray. >> and you know what? things are going to change. but for now, we'll stay gray with some rain drops, especially in the

north bay and in some areas across the entire bay area at the water's edge, a high surf advisory in effect until wee hours of tomorrow morning for 15 to 18 to 25 foot waves. he's are strong breaking waves. so concerns, of course, about being on the beach concerns, of course, about being in the water because it's pretty strong breakers. a look at 2 dead. today's high temperatures upper 50's to mid 60's or so lots of clouds, some light rain and that's not a big storm. but just enough to be in a bit of a nuisance. now, this is a bigger storm coming in tomorrow morning with gusts year winds and stronger rain. so you'll see smackdown right across the san francisco bay area, bringing rain and then bringing snow to the sierra. so a little more fresh powder for the skiers, which is great news. but look what's happening on the forecast model as you see this little hump start to develop. that's a ridge that's an area of high pressure. and guess what? it parks itself over us and it will bring all the

storms to our north. they will no longer be bringing us rain for quite a few days. so the forecast for new year's eve looks dry. in fact, even though says storm comes in toward the pacific northwest, that ridge holds. that is your new year's eve tuesday evening, 11:30pm, or so. it's dry about new year's day. still dry. yes, there's a storm up to the north, but it doesn't get here. so that is great news as we get a chance to a transition from the really wet weather to much drier weather. in fact, the wet weather this weekend will be mainly in the pacific northwest and in the northwest part of our state by monday. you know, all the weekend rain, it's not that much. 8 tenths of an inch or santa rosa. half that much in san francisco about a quarter of an inch in mountain view. so it's just a little bit of rain on sunday. today's high temperatures mainly in the upper 50's to low 60's to mid 60's. if you head down toward southern part of the bay area. and a look ahead shows we've

got again, the rain, a little bit of rain today, stronger, a little bit more wind tomorrow. and then we clear things out just in time. chilly mornings, though, starting with those dry conditions. that's a tradeoff. in the meantime, looking ahead, 6 to 10 day precipitation outlook for the first 5 days of the brand new year. when you see these colors of great yellow and the brown that is drier than normal. so that's going to be a big change for a stephanie. back to you for news. i kathy, thanks so much. and with the snow flakes falling in the slopes calling it's shaping up to be a promising ski season. the national weather service issuing a winter weather advisory this weekend up in the sierra. before you grab your skis and hit that powder. let's check in with kevin coop cooper, director of communications at california mountain resort company. good to see you. good morning. beautiful start to the day. looks like we've got some snow in the forecast. yes, we do. so as we just mentioned, you know, a winter weather advisory is in effect for this

prepared when you come up to the sierra, if you're a 2 wheel drive car chase chain tension or she checks the dav. those things with you do not try and go around the chain controls and think you could get over the summit without having change. then have your emergency road k your flashlight have water that car, some snackable items in the car as well. if you're in the eb full charge, charge it up before you come up to the summit are before you leave. lake take a gas as well. charge your cell phone. but i'll tell you what, come on up with a great attitude. get ready. it's going to be a little bit like level. but what you get up on the mound, you're going to have a great time. >> and testing now cook with winter conditions like these. you have any updates on resort operations. any possible closures at all. >> that your snow. not at all. we have plenty of snow right now to operate really what they have to do is get out of them out and take a look at it. a lot of the snow pack is really really moisture late. and so it's it's there to

stay. right now. we've had rain, snow, rain, snow flexed upwards downwards, rain up to 10,000 feet and then back down. it's a good start to a snowpack. it's not what we want. i'd love to see 96 inches right now 100 inches possibly. but right now we're city where between 36 probably 42 inches. china peak down in fresno, though, has a 50 inch base. so we just need to wait. watch and see that storm door. we do have high pressure that's going to lock in place for about 10 days. but look at those long rain by boj. models out there the year out at the gfs. it looks like that there's a hit of a break around the tent. and remember, winner late january february and then march calms. it is game on. so we got a long winter ahead. stop level site will see guys out on the mountain. fantastic. now. any special events that are planned for visitors a season that you can speak to. >> you know, you've always have the new year shows that are going to go on. so if you're at the kirkwood mountain resort, you're going to see the fireworks stacked.

see those storms start to move in. it will be good season averaged seasons about 3.96 395 inches were on want a good start. this is pretty normal, you know, depending on the lead the new year. but, you know, good once the storm door starts to open up and we see that first 12, 14, 16, 2 foot, 3 storms start to in. that will be on. if anything. we got to pay attention to the water tables up there because even though you've had a lot of moisture down in the bay area, a lot of precipitation, we don't have a snowpack to melt off quite yet at elevations. so that's that's the concern right now. i'm sure the guys over at the berkeley snow lab are looking at what they have on the jack right there and going. i wish we had another 40 inches right ok? got it. good contacts there. now, as we wrap things up here in our last 30 seconds, looking ahead to new year's eve in tahoe, you mentioned a lot of people like to celebrate just general advice, safety tips. >> you know, just had a great night. enjoy it out there. go
