received that sad update from officials who spoke tonight with heavy hearts. our crime reporter, henry lee live for us tonight in milpitas with the new information. henry. >> yeah. heather, this is a tragic situation that milpitas police indeed believes was a murder suicide involving a married couple and their two children. now, a request for a welfare check led to the grim discovery of four bodies at the touring apartment complex on mccandless drive at about nine tuesday night. milpitas police today identified the dead as 36 year old vin quang nguyen. his wife, chao bao pham, known as becky, who was also 36, their nine year old son and their four year old daughter. the names of the kids were not released. police say wynn used a legally registered handgun to kill his wife and children before turning the gun on himself. each family member died from a single gunshot wound. family members had reported they hadn't spoken to them for several days. police believe the killings happened between saturday night and the

time officers were called to the scene. >> this tragedy is a very difficult reminder of the importance of addressing domestic violence and gun violence. the loss of their lives was preventable. and for anyone experiencing distress, whether that's domestic violence, gun violence or mental health concerns, help is available. >> police said there were no previous reports of domestic violence that a motive for this is under investigation. detectives will be going through digital and other evidence in hopes of determining what led up to what they called an isolated, heartbreaking incident. now, police remind everyone that there are crisis and suicide hotlines, including nationwide number that's available 24 over seven. that number is nine, eight eight. live in milpitas. henry lee ktvu, fox two news. >> yeah, so tragic. henry. really? there are really no words. but when you talk about family members who reported that they hadn't seen members of this family in some time, do police

officer any offer, any more details about just how long it had been since anyone had heard from this family? >> yeah. they had not been heard of, heard from for several days. and so family members from both sides, both the husband and the wife called police. and based on their estimation, they believe these killings happened sometime saturday night at the apartment complex. and of course, police were called to the scene about tuesday at 9 p.m, our henry lee reporting live for us there in milpitas. >> henry. thank you. memorial services are now set for three piedmont college students who were killed in that fiery cybertruck crash. soren dixon, krista sakahara and jack nelson died in the solo vehicle crash back on november 27th. they were home from college, visiting their families for the thanksgiving break. the chp is investigating but has not yet released a report. a funeral mass for jack nelson will be held saturday at corpus christi catholic church in piedmont. christie tsukahara's memorial will be held on december 28th at sequoia country club, and soren

dixon's family says his service will be on january 4th at the piedmont community church. well, six people are now displaced after a destructive fire in san lorenzo. smoke pouring out of the home. as you see here on bandoni avenue near villa molina, just before 1230 this afternoon. our chopper, catching the moment that firefighters were there, climbing on top of the roof of that house and using chainsaws to ventilate the home. san lorenzo fire says crews were able to knock down the blaze in about 20 minutes. no one was injured in that fire. however, two dogs did die. the cause of the fire is still under investigation. now we go to washington and elon musk flexing his political muscle and scrambling. republicans plans to pass a short term budget. musk using his megaphone to help tank a bipartisan deal that would have kept the government funded through march, saying it contained unnecessary spending. and he posted this on x today showing a new slimmed down

spending plan next to yesterday's much larger bill. president elect trump threw his backing behind the new agreement. but about an hour ago, that bill failed to pass the closely divided house. ktvu alex savage is here now with what's next. i mean, it's been a really action packed day there in washington. >> yes, certainly a busy night in washington, here in washington. a lot of back and forth that we're following here closely. of course, earlier today, speaker mike johnson rushed out that new bill. he had withdrawn the previous version negotiated with democrats after, as you saw there, musk bashed it online. and then president elect trump demanded changes to it. now that updated bill has failed. house republicans are having to come up with a plan c. time, though, is running out to get a bill through the house and the senate before midnight to try to avert a shutdown. this latest bill would have funded the government through march, and included disaster relief and assistance for farmers. but on the insistence of president elect trump, it would have

raised the debt ceiling for the next two years. democrats opposed that part of the bill, saying it was meant to allow trump to extend tax cuts for the wealthy, which are set to expire next year. democrats said musk's influence here was to blame for all of the chaos. >> elon musk, an unelected man, said we're not doing this deal. and donald trump followed along. so here we are once again in chaos. >> tonight on x, musk blamed democratic minority leader hakeem jeffries for the bill's failure, even though conservative republicans joined with democrats to reject that bill. democratic leaders said they are keeping an open line of communication with speaker johnson to try to work out another bipartisan agreement if funding does run out on friday, there would likely be a partial shutdown of the government. federal workers would be furloughed or go without pay.

but at this point in washington, there is no resolution in sight. but congress ready to leave for the holidays here, of course. so they want to get a deal done, hopefully avoid avoid a shutdown at all. but if there is one, it could be just a brief one for part of the weekend. >> okay, a lot at stake though in these negotiations. alex thank you. all right. on wall street we go today. and stocks were mostly flat after yesterday's dismal day for the market. the dow gained 15 points. the nasdaq was down 19 and the s&p was off by about five points. shares were down sharply yesterday as traders are now expecting the federal reserve to deliver just 1 or 2 interest rate cuts next year. attorney general rob bonta says immigrant communities here in california can count on the state department of justice for legal protections. ag bonta spoke after an immigrant rights convention that was held in san francisco this morning. bonta said that he wants to make sure that immigrants know their rights. this comes as the state legislature is considering a new litigation fund of up to $25

million to defend californians, as the trump administration threatens mass deportations. >> my team and i are here to protect and defend and enforce immigrant rights, regardless of who is in the white house or who controls congress, just as we did during trump's first term. >> attorney general bonta said that california is home to nearly 11 million immigrants who helped drive the state's economy and workforce. well, one strike may be over in san francisco, but another is just getting underway in this new strike could affect your holidays. ktvu christien kafton. joining us now live. and workers at one major hotel chain, kristen, have now reached a tentative deal. >> yeah. that's right. the workers here at the marriott and at marriott around town had been on strike for months and are in the process of reviewing and possibly ratifying that new contract that could be signed as early as tonight. meanwhile,

amazon workers have just walked off the job. amazon workers nationwide and here in san francisco walked off the job and onto the picket lines backed by the teamsters union. dozens of workers in one of san francisco's distribution warehouses asked amazon for pay increases, better benefits and to recognize the union. they say they gave amazon a december 15th deadline but were ignored. >> they refuse to do that. they've refused all the other deadlines that we've set for them. so now they've left us with no choice but to strike. >> amazon responded to the strike, saying in part, quote, this is another attempt to push a false narrative. the truth is that the teamsters have actively threatened, intimidated, and attempted to coerce amazon employees and third party drivers to join them. the picket line slowed delivery vehicles, but workers say they understand that people around the bay are waiting on holiday gifts. >> it may we hope it doesn't. we hope everybody gets their packages on time. that's up to amazon, you know. if amazon wants to bargain with us, they could end this strike right now. >> as amazon workers walked off the job, workers at the marriott

hotels began voting on a new contract offer. workers say it appears to be a good deal with medical benefits and wages, where they need to be, just in time for the holidays. >> it's a great deal and we were able to gain, you know, our wage increases that were much needed with inflation nowadays. >> while marriott workers may be on their way to a contract, negotiations are still underway for hilton and hyatt workers, with a deal in the works for marriott. union leaders say it's up to hilton and hyatt to come to the table before the holidays. >> i don't know if it makes it more likely. i mean, that's for them to decide, but but i think the, you know, the fact that there is now a contract, there is now a standard in this city makes the decision simple for them. >> and marriott workers could be back on the job as soon as saturday if in fact they ratify that contract. again, that voting should be wrapping up right about now. we are expecting to learn whether or

not those marriott workers have, in fact, ratified that contract at around 630. we're live in san francisco, christien kafton, ktvu, fox two news. okay. >> stay tuned for that vote. appreciate it kristen. thank you. flight attendants with united airlines meantime walking the picket lines today at sfo, as well as at other airports across the country. the flight attendants are gearing up for a possible strike as they negotiate for better pay. the association of flight attendants is calling this a day of action. more than 99% of members voted in favor of a strike authorization back in august. and so now they're being asked to sign up to be called on first, a strike if and when the national mediation board gives the green light to strike. united airlines says it plans to resume negotiations next year. a rally at the state public utilities commission meeting in san francisco this morning, demanding that commissioners reject a proposed rate hike by pg and e, the cpuc is considering pg and e's request to recover $723 million in costs

to operate the diablo canyon nuclear plant. the facility was set to close next year. pg and e says keeping it up and running, though will help meet the state's growing power demands. clean energy advocates say the plant is too dangerous. >> we don't want any more investor owned utilities. we want utilities owned by the people and for the people so we can have safe, clean, affordable energy for everyone in the state of california. >> the groups are also calling on the cpuc to close the aliso canyon gas storage facility, and to reject a rate hike for san diego gas and electric customers as well. >> it was this opportunity to come together and really unite around someone we believe in. >> calls growing tonight for retiring congresswoman barbara lee to run for oakland mayor. so will she get into the race? and the saying goes, you build it, they will come. a howard terminal stadium didn't happen for the a's. so will it work for the oakland roots and seoul

enroll by december 31st. covered california. this way to health insurance. congresswoman barbara lee to run for mayor are ramping up today. a group of community leaders publishing an open letter calling for lee to run. ktvu jana katsuyama joining us now live tonight with details. so, jenna, and any reaction from the retiring congresswoman?

>> well, her staff told me that she has no comment today, but this group is very hopeful that she will run. and when she spoke with ktvu days ago, she did say that she was thinking it over and has not ruled it out. congresswoman barbara lee is serving out her term until january 3rd, but already pressure is on to recruit her to run for a new job as oakland's mayor. on thursday, a group posted a public letter signed by 25 community leaders and organizations. it says oakland is a city that is facing a crisis of leadership, and that barbara lee is the person they think could bring people together. >> she brings a level of stature. she can get anybody in the world on the phone, and oakland is going to need a lot of help to get out of this situation that we're in. >> isaac kos-read, who helped spearhead the letter, points to the diverse group of people who signed it, including current interim mayor nikki fortunato. >> bass is one of the first times you have a coalition of business people, labor people, community people, longtime civic leaders, longtime residents, council members who don't always agree on issues.

>> i'm talking to people who who really want me to run. i'm taking a deep dive on what it means. >> congresswoman lee said in an interview this week with ktvu that she is weighing the options. >> if i say that it's something that just would not work with, with what i have a vision for making life better for everyone and that it's just too, you know, messy and too crazy right now. then i would say no. >> but lee says she has not ruled out a run for mayor and right now is listening and talking to people, listening to what they care about and what they want and seeing if i'm the type of a person that could help and again, make life better and make every community better. >> so i'm still pondering it. >> this was an effort totally outside of her. she brought together people that would normally not even sit in the room together. that's what oakland needs right now. we need no more divisiveness. >> and just today, the oakland city clerk that is handling the

special election next april posted this list of the candidates so far who have already submitted paperwork. there are 11 people there. that includes former supervisor lauren taylor, who narrowly lost the last mayoral election to xiang tao. so heather, quite a few people who have already thrown their names into the hat and, you know, there's still some time, so there could be many more. >> okay, so let's talk about timing here. how long does former congressman woman lee have to think about this? what's the deadline to file the paperwork if she does, in fact decide to run for oakland mayor? >> well, the city clerk says that friday, january 17th, is the last day to file this paperwork. and so that is one of the reasons why this group said that they wanted to get this letter out, publish it now, and try and really encourage her to think about it. >> okay. well, we will see what happens. janet katsuyama, thank you. on capitol hill, the senate has unanimously approved legislation to preserve sites that honor labor and civil rights leader cesar chavez and the farm worker movement. the bill names several nationally

significant sites, both in california and arizona, related to chavez and the labor movement, so they include two sites in kern county. the first headquarters of the united farm workers union and the existing cesar chavez national monument. another site is a building in phoenix. that's where chavez held a 24 day fast as part of a labor protest. under the legislation, these landmarks will be part of the national park system. all right. the cleanup continues across san francisco after that severe storm over the weekend that triggered the city's first ever tornado warning. now, a tornado never materialized, but the powerful winds did topple trees all across the city. the recreation and parks department has tallied up 98 downed trees in all, with 74 of those trees right there in golden gate park, city officials say although the damage was extensive, the best news no one was hurt. >> i'm pretty confident that our staff is well prepared for these kinds of impacts. you know, our

arborists and gardeners work year round to assess the health of trees. so, you know, whether there is another storm coming. we are well prepared. our advice to people is really to avoid unnecessary travel during extreme weather, and also to be careful when walking near trees, especially in parks. and it's also important to note that even healthy trees can fall during these strong wind gusts that we have so far. >> there is no estimate on the cost of the damage, but as we bring in our chief meteorologist, bill martin. bill, that's a significant number of trees and some large trees there in golden gate park. >> yeah. and as i was looking at that, that debris field, i actually didn't go out there. i wished i had actually. but you can tell when you're on the ground. the weather service sends people out to look to see if it was a tornado or not. if the radar says it is, that's not enough. you got to go out and look at the damage on the ground. one of the things that i think could have happened out along the coast, we had something down by davenport and

something up by the golden gate park. there's a thing called a microburst, and i think there's a real potential for that when you have this big convective cells, those big thunderstorms we had, the air gets pushed, pulled in and rises and gets really cold. it cools a lot of enough air. if the cell is big enough, you get enough air up there, super cools, and then it gets heavy cold air sinks and it comes straight down. look up microburst. google it sometime. it's awesome. i mean, some of the some of the debris that is created from that. so it's this flat straight down and then it shoots out at the sides. and part of me i look at that debris field in golden gate park, just the cameras there. and it looked, it looked a little bit like it could have been something like that. but either way, we do have more weather coming. we've got fog right now. the fog. i mean, if you look at this picture right here, live picture, this is golden gate bridge. this is a north kind of a northeast wind. that's the flag. it's hard to tell, but this is fog coming through the carquinez strait out going the other way. right. it's coming from the sacramento valley and pushing into sausalito and pushing out through the gate. and it's been doing that for a few days. that's why temperatures have been so cool in some parts of the bay area. so the fog a product of high

pressure, strong high pressure. this is the long range model. see all those tweaks going through? yeah. it's an active pattern that's developing starting on saturday. a little bit of everything we're going to see. but that breaks up the inversion. so the fog will go away. but not by tomorrow morning. tomorrow morning it's going to be foggy again. there's going to be clouds, maybe not as much fog, but it's going to be have the potential to be really, really dense again. so be prepared for that. and then we got this holiday week. it's going to be wet. it's going to be on and off wet. so just get used to that idea and we'll dial it in as we get closer. i'll see you back here. we'll do the full forecast in just a couple of minutes. >> so it's a piece of history that we are looking at here right now. it's a masterpiece. >> making things a bit merrier for the holidays. hop on board a historic trolley that will ll thro h th

chase really knows how to put the hart in your local community. see what i did there? hey, jackie! (♪) evan, my guy! you're helping them with savings, right?

today in san francisco at an annual salvation army toy giveaway. this is part of their angel tree holiday program that supports underserved kids. several volunteers helping with today's toy distribution were dressed for the occasion. as you see here in santa and elf costumes. some of those holiday helpers were volunteers with the department. this year, the salvation army gave two gifts to about 1500 children who were pre-registered with the program, from newborns to 12 year olds. this year, the program saw a 10% increase in the number of registered angels. well, vta's historic holiday trolley returns this week after a long absence. riders in san jose will be able to check out christmas in the

park and other downtown attractions in vintage style, and all for free. as ktvu an rubin explains, it took a lot of work and determination to get the trolley on the move again for the first time in a long time, a piece of history will take to the streets of san jose. >> this trolley. more than 100 years old, will be offering holiday trips to awestruck riders. >> they are in awe. their jaws just drop and they're like, wow, because you don't get to see this often. >> in fact, vta stopped operating the trolleys completely back in 2018. at first, the issue was financial, but then the pandemic struck and the trolleys sat idle. rod diridon, the father of transportation in silicon valley, was devastated. >> i came by to look at the cars here and they were covered with boxes, stuff stored on them. they were all filthy, dirty with dust and debris, and it was a heartbreaker. >> back in the late 80s and

early 90s, diridon had been responsible for bringing the trolleys to san jose from all over everywhere, from milan to melbourne. there were eight in total, four that live at kelly park for lease to vta to operate. diridon begged vta to run theirs again. >> i wanted to know, after especially having that conversation with him, why can't we put them back out? >> and so vta's maintenance crew got to work. most people familiar with the trolleys were long retired, so they sought help from the staff at kelly park, from atu and from muni. >> this is all technology, so we basically have to learn what people back in the day did without even thinking about it. so that was the biggest challenge. >> then a lucky few got trained how to operate them. >> it takes a little to get used to. it's very, very manual. so it's not. it's you can tell that you are in something historic. >> and while all the trolleys got spruced up this year, only one will go out making a holiday circuit from civic center to

diridon station. mr. diridon himself would love to see more. >> eventually, i hope that they they get back on a regular schedule. >> for now, though, he's happy to see this trolley on the move. he hopes riders might enjoy a ride to christmas in the park, and certainly a trip down memory lane. >> you can see it simply by saying you got to protect the best of the past if you want a better future. and by golly, we're trying to do that. >> the trolley will run this weekend and next weekend from three until nine, and the rides are free. the hope is to get more trolleys running for more weekends next holiday season in san jose and ruben ktvu fox two news. >> the oakland roots soccer team says it thinks it can put a soccer stadium at the same place. the a's failed to put a baseball stadium. >> plus, the man accused of killing the ceo of united health care in new york returns to the city of the crime. the state and

fe ral char s

the a's tried and failed, but the oakland roots and soul are hoping for success this time. the soccer club eyeing a stadium at howard terminal next to jack london square in oakland. the club filing a proposal with the port of oakland and releasing drawings of what that stadium might look like. ktvu tom vacar joining us now live with the latest on the roots effort, as

well as the challenges that the club will face. >> indeed, you know, the roots themselves actually have a much downsized and a much more humble project that they want to do in the same spot and is far, far smaller than the system that the a's claimed that they wanted to put together. probably not. but this still is going to have a lot of hurdles. the oakland roots soccer club has submitted a proposal to the port authority to build a permanent up to 25 000 seat, expandable modular soccer stadium at howard terminal for the oakland roots and the oakland soul teams in the city of oaks. >> it's an incredible place to live, and the sports fans here are the best in the world, and they deserve a team that loves them as much as they love the team. >> the three biggest barriers for the 55 acre site are 100 other competing applicants with their own plans, the need for a thorough above and below ground

cleanup of toxic chemicals, sufficient new infrastructure to the site and environs to handle the crowds and traffic, as well as a lack of mass transit. >> all of those barriers that we're still holding up the a's for a long time, when they were putting together their project. those are still going to be there for whoever moves forward. >> we definitely don't want to look like we're opposed to sports teams because we love sports teams. >> nonetheless, longshoremen oppose a port site, and we would like to see the property being used where it generates money and it generates jobs, high paying union jobs for the city of oakland and port of oakland and the surrounding areas in the bay area. oakland port trucker bill says there is actually a place at the port where trucks and containers could be staged, leaving enough room, potentially for a stadium. the question is,

is there the political will to do that? >> think about a trade. we have the city has a piece of property right by the bay bridge. that's waterfront that could be exchanged for that. and that's designated to go as a coal terminal, which the residential community and everybody is against. >> but our long term plan is to create a purpose built soccer stadium. but we're keeping other options open as well, including building a stadium at the coliseum site. >> now, all of this is why oakland needs to get that coliseum area in development, which bart already serves, has highway access and a whole lot of space to build things. one final thing. the great thing that the roots really have going for them is the fact that they're a beloved team. and when you're beloved, that is political power. reporting live. tom vacar, ktvu, fox two news. >> indeed it is. we'll follow up

on what happens. thanks so much, tom. appreciate it. bay of see, the bay area's national women's soccer league franchise will now have a permanent team home on treasure island. san francisco mayor london breed today signing legislation approving a 25 year lease for a training facility on the island. it will include a 20,000 square foot clubhouse, as well as three practice fields. bay fc ceo brady brandi stewart called this a historic day for the team. >> our goal is to build an iconic global sports franchise, and there is no better place for us to do it due to it than the iconic city of san francisco that we all love. we are absolutely thrilled to be making history with this training facility for our team. >> bay fc currently practices at san jose state. construction on the new treasure island training facility is set to begin next year, and it is expected to open in 2027. well, a big day for women's college basketball is

the president elect is accusing the white house of a massive cover up. >> for some reason, they don't want to comment, and i think they'd be better off saying what it is our military knows and our our president knows. >> meanwhile, some lawmakers on capitol hill are trying to take action. but a bill that would have allowed local officials to counter drone threats failed in the senate on wednesday due to privacy concerns among republicans, despite having strong support within the drone industry. >> we've been pushing for rules that expand the current authorities about what we call detection and mitigation. >> ultimately, experts are split about why we're seeing such a big uptick in drone sightings, but most agree more needs to be done to determine if there's a risk and how to stop it. >> my guess is there are a lot of pranksters and, you know, individual operators, but we can't rule out the possibility of substantially more concerning kinds of foreign action. and we're going to have to learn more. >> the faa drone restrictions will remain in effect through at

resources to help respond to bird flu. it comes as a person in louisiana has the first severe illness, and officials say that person had exposure to sick and dead birds in backyard flocks. ktvu sally rasmus with the advice tonight for owners of backyard chickens. >> california is one of the nation's largest milk producing states. so far this year, bird flu has infected herds at more than 645 dairy farms. now, governor gavin newsom has declared a state of emergency over the virus. the declaration allows the state to send more resources to farms and counties affected, as well as relax some of the state labor laws about work hours, making it easier to test and treat infected animals and potentially manage the

disease in the general population. >> we still don't have a routine human test, so the test for bird flu have to go to specialized laboratories. i'm actually hopeful. with the state of emergency in california, that california health officials will see the need to develop our own test with state resources. >> up until this week, the bird flu cases in california had only been found in cattle in the central valley. but on december 12th, there was a case discovered in a herd in southern california. the governor's office said, that signaled a wider spread of the virus. >> the dairy outbreak started from wild waterfowl, interfacing with with domesticated dairy cows in texas and spread from there. so we are in the thick of it right now. there are 6 million waterfowl in the central valley of california. and there's a lot of birds that are carrying this virus. >> maurice pitesky is a veterinarian and epidemiologist at uc davis. he says there are about 100,000 backyard chickens in california, and their owners

could be at risk. he says anyone handling chickens should wear rubber gloves, boots and take other precautions. >> clothing that is 100% dedicated to your coop. you don't bring that inside. and now i'm encouraging people to also, at the minimum, wear a surgical mask. >> now, just yesterday, a man in louisiana became the first known severe case of bird flu in the u.s. this year, he was hospitalized in critical condition. authorities say he's 65 years old and had some preexisting health conditions, but authorities believe he was exposed after coming into contact with some infected chickens in his backyard flock. ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> the annual westminster kennel club dog show, of course, is a favorite for many dog lovers, and come february, when the competition is held, will a man from oakland will be on hand as one of the judges for the annual show will be held in new york, and oakland's ryan horvath has been selected to judge breed's in the hound group. it will mark his first assignment at westminster, and we spoke with

horvath, who said his participation will mark a long running dedication to the sport of competing in dog shows. >> started actively showing dogs almost 30 years ago, so it's been quite a long time, and that's one of the qualifications to move forward as a judge is to have been in the sport and show dogs for a number of years, as long as as well as having litters of dogs and champions and really showing that you've been active. >> horvath said that this year is the largest number of entries. in fact, they are from california. he noted that it tends to be difficult to breed show dogs in places like oakland, compared to places in the midwest where there's typically more land for proper dog breeding. >> all righty. as we head outside, we've got temperatures today that were pretty mild around the bay, but boy, you go inland. fairfield 49 degrees. that was the high. that's the overnight low a couple nights ago. what's going on is you got all this fog in the central valley, right? it's all trapped in that little bathtub of cold

and moist air, and it's filled up the valley to the point that it's actually spilling in through the carquinez strait and coming out through the bridge. and so we're seeing temperatures. if you look at vallejo, 4749 in fairfield, 50 in antioch, really mild or what am i saying, cold afternoons and you go down to bakersfield, you go to modesto. stockton, it's even colder. so what have we got? we got more fog tomorrow. we've got more clouds tomorrow. this is the long range model. i just want to click it through. and what you're seeing is a progressive weather pattern. a progressive series of weather systems want to come through that starts on saturday. don't buy all the timing right now because this thing is what happens is the jet stream is it's in kind of a zonal flow. so it's kind of goes from west to east, and it's not a flat line or essentially a flat line. and the jet stream buckles and ridges really easily because the jet stream is moving faster when it's like a river. rivers that are running straight run faster than rivers that are winding. the jet stream is a river. when it's running straight, it's running fast, but it also starts to get turbulence and shear in the jet stream will pop up,

create a ridge and dry you out a ridge stream jet stream will pop down. create a low pressure center, create a surface front. and so it's a lot can happen, but suffice to say the models are very good with main weather pattern position where the jet stream will be and the jet stream is probably going to be there starting saturday further south. and that's going to set us up with almost most certainly a wet period going into the holiday week. but timing things out right now, i'd give it a couple of days for sure, but it's active pacific, you know that because the surf is huge, it's going to be giant all next week. it's going to be big up to 25, 30ft. and, you know, snow in the mountains. but high snow elevations, atmospheric rivers hold. and this has an atmospheric river component. it actually has a couple small ones, one maybe bigger. but it basically increases the snow level. so here's tomorrow morning. you see the fog, see it in there, and you see it still spilling into the bay despite the high clouds. this is the mechanism for blowing up the inversion. so then on friday

afternoon, fog goes away. but then the showers come in. saturday. sunday looks kind of cloudy. and then monday we get back into some more scattered showers. so right. the first couple things that come through are pretty mild in terms of rainfall potential. but the middle early part of next week, 23rd, 24th looks like it has potential to be pretty wet in some places. it depends where you are. we'll dial that in as we get closer. i'll see you back here a few minutes. heather. >> all right. thanks so much. appreciate it. other countries have successful high speed rail networks. so why has california struggled to get on board? coming up next, what will happen now that the delayed and overbudget project has landed on the radar of president elect trump's department of government

unwrapped. california's high speed rail project is years behind schedule and billions of dollars over budget, and now it's caught the attention of those who will lead the new department of government efficiency. fox's max gordon has more now from hanford in the central valley, where a high speed rail station is planned. >> this project was supposed to be completed back in 2020, at a price tag of around $33 billion. but as you can see here, construction is still underway and it's still unclear when the entire rail line is going to be completed. costs have also been ballooning now at up to around $128 billion. because of all this, one california congressman wants to cut off federal funding to the high speed rail authority, says there's still a funding gap of $100 billion. >> they don't know where that money is going to come from. there have been five more ceos of the rail authority than there have been passengers, that there have been five ceos. there have been zero passengers. >> the proposed department of

government efficiency, aka doge, also highlighted the high speed rail project's woes. in a post on x. california voters initially approved this project back in 2008 with a bond measure. the promise was that san francisco and los angeles could be connected by bullet train, with a projected top speed of 220mph, the trains would deliver riders between the two cities in less than three hours, competing with airlines on one of the busiest domestic routes in the u.s. and providing an economic boost to communities with stops on the line. places like here in hanford, a town of just under 60,000, and the site of one of the proposed stations. we spoke to local business owners to get their thoughts. >> i don't feel like i'm ever going to see it done, to be honest with you. i mean, if it is done, that's wonderful. but i see more of the setbacks than i actually do see the progress. >> the entire route has now cleared environmental studies and many structures have been built. still, there's no operational line and the train sets haven't even been picked out yet. with limited funding and ballooning costs, the state has prioritized completion of an

initial line from merced to bakersfield, a line that's been criticized as a train to nowhere. this first segment will likely come at a cost, nearing the initial estimate for the entire project, and is on track to be done between 2030 and 2033. despite the setbacks, california governor gavin newsom still supports the project, and his office emphasized the number of jobs that have been created, as well as the progress that's been made in hanford, california. max gordon fox business. >> next at six. tragedy in the south bay, a family of four found dead. and tonight, police say a man killed his wife and two children before turning the gun on himself. we'll have the latest on the investigation. also, we are staying on top of the uncertainty back east in washington, where the clock is ticking to get a deal done to keep the government funded and organized labor taking a stand just as the holidays arrive. hotel workers in san francisco reached a deal to end the strike at some, but not all, of those hotels. meantime, some amazon
