>> sonar and engineering assessments were reviewed by the u.s. coast guard. so officials say it's been deemed safe to reopen. however, the far end of the wharf will remain closed off. >> take a look at this. some wild weather in northern california. tornado touching down just before 5.30, this evening in shasta county. no reports of any damage or injuries here. but it did produce quarter sized hail. look there. this comes just weeks after a different tornado touched down in scotts valley down in santa cruz county, which was definitely wild and unexpected for a plot for us. with closer look at our weather, i think we're gonna have a calmer weekend for us all or first tornado the year. ironically in california, right? you're thinking about the planes, but >> there you go. things very active with thunderstorms rolling across parts of california today. just enough to spawn that tornado. things begin to settle down now, though, but that cold front. >> you can see it swinging by

early on today. behind that you get all that cold, unstable air. all of a sudden you start to see that instability and a couple thunderstorms starting to pop up. so yeah, watch this right here will go through time here. i'll show you where we're at as we head toward the afternoon. things started to pick up and that's when you get the most instability. get the sunrise, the sun high all that energy from the sun office and the developing thunderstorms and then things got active, especially in parts of the central valley. and there you go. thunderstorms begin to pop up there. and that was the system right there that actually produced the tornado just to the east there, but landing in a place that thank goodness to do any damage like the one we have in scotts valley, a bay area. still a couple scattered pop up showers around the bay area right now. not much. but this quickly coming to an end watching some big-time waves along the coastline. that's going to be the big concern. weather wise over the weekend, 18 to 25 footers up toward the coastline right now, not all that large but beginning to build to about 7 feet. now just off the coastline of san francisco. but a little further out and boy, not that far away. we're talking 21 feet off the coast of northern

california. further out seeing some of these waves 28, even 32 feet off the coastline, though. still yet to come as we head through time here, we're going to see dry conditions returning high pressure building in. that's gonna send the rain line well to the north of the bay area. we're gonna see some passing clouds throughout the weekend, but i think we stay dry here in the bay area and probably right through monday as well. maybe through the middle of the month of fact, long range models are say, hey, we're going to be well below average on one of the wettest times of the year here in the bay area, but looks like at least through the middle of month is going to stay dry. temperatures for tomorrow. 50's maybe some low 60's. but i think as we get to next week, we're going to start to see a bit of an offshore wind and then offshore wind going bring some unusually warm temperatures. well, a good part of the country is going to be freezing. we're going to be basking to some sunshine and some of those temperatures may be getting near 70 degrees by about the middle of the week. so other parts of the country, i mean, they're going to be like even get above 0. and we're going to be talking about 70 degrees or so here in california. there's a reason we live exile morning were very thanks, lauren. thanks.

>> well, christmas is finally arrived for animals at the berlin zoo every year after the holiday season. the zoo collects unsold christmas trees. >> from local vendors and offers them to a variety of animals as a special treat. this guys having a good time, not only to the trees, provide a tasty little snack, but they also serve as enrichment keeping the animals engaged and entertained this year. for the first time the giraffes were included in the festive tradition, enjoying their share of the holiday fun. think a lot of folks are going to be taking down their christmas trees this weekend. >> still ahead here in sports, forty-niners would like to end their season on a high note with a win against the cards. but we'll have to do it. short-handed been ross tells us who will not be playing arizona on sunday. that's next. in sports. well, as the

forty-niners. >> prepare to wrap up the season on sunday at arizona. the season has actually already come to an early end for at least 5 more key players. kyle shanahan announced today that spencer burford deommodore lenoir robert peel junior brock purdy and deebo samuel all gonna miss the finale in arizona. the most surprising one of that group is samuel who had stepped up his game lately, including a touchdown reception in monday night's loss to the lions. he's missing the game with rib and wrist injuries. purdy and the others were mostly already known. well, speaking of

shanahan, he and general manager john obviously we're not thinking in august week 18 would be their final game of the season. >> they both did receive a vote of confidence from ceo jed york recently as told the sf standard. so i guess they got that going for them. the silver lining here is that this will be the first time in 4 years. the shanahan actually gets a full offseason to assess the year its work on next season's game plan. >> yeah, maybe i'd be much more excited that to not have one and the goal of the february again, you know, but it's that does that is you know, when you do that that long everyone needs to get away. and by the time you come back as usually right free agency starting not totally quite there yet. we are first time since covid being off in january gives you more time figure things out. a few times go through the things like the cut up some stuff you finish that most of the snowfall before the super bowl and then you're ready to go to other stuff like the draft and and

free agency and all that soon as the super bowl. and so just being a lot more ahead of that is is really exciting. and i'm ready to get to it. >> on your shoes. well, meanwhile, did you see what steph curry did last night against the seventy-sixers? the warriors? >> we're very happy he was able to play through his sprained right. it was taped up. but it did not bother his shooting. stroke. one a historic night, steph, 8 for 8 from 3 point range. his most made threes without a miss in this entire career. just one shy of the nba record and 30 minutes. number 30 finished with 30 points, 10 assists and 6 rebounds going as the warriors routed philly one, 39 1 5. >> first off, thanks for making up stat that i could be a first that pretty cool. i really think nothing of it. sometimes you little injury or something as random. the kind

forces you to focus a little bit just be freed is having i got to play because was kind of a sure going into the day, but he's want to maintain calm as i know what i said last game and i meant it because we are no, you are what your record says. you are and we haven't plan below average basketball for a long time. obviously, i take accountability for a lot of that and celebrated my first 3. and just to try to infuse some joy into the game. we have to try to maintain that even if no shots don't fall for a search a game to stay, stay locked in. >> so with steph curry's 30 point game last night he passed michael jordan allow for 30 point games after the age of 35. and so shows he is still going strong. yeah, no signs of slowing down, which i feel like no one really. thought he was going to be slowing down anytime soon. he's always you know, he might play forever eyes. let's back in la. i think the warriors would appreciate so. sure. yeah, thanks, ed.
