>> we begin tonight with the city of new orleans desperately seeking a return to normalcy. 36 hours after what authorities are calling an act of terrorism. good evening, i'm cristina rendon. many are mourning the 14 people killed and dozens more hurt in that new year's day attack, but also finding a way to move forward. we want to give you a live look from earthcam at the famous bourbon street this hour, which did reopen earlier this afternoon to the public. the college football super bowl was held after a 20 hour delay. police have put in new security measures and more patrols as authorities continue to investigate the attacker, who drove a rental truck into a crowd. ktvu jana katsuyama joins us live in studio tonight with what those investigators have found. jana. >> well, the fbi says that the new orleans attack was a premeditated act of terrorism by a u.s. citizen. the attacker had an isis flag on the vehicle and posted videos online. but investigators say it appears that he acted alone. >> i am opening bourbon street

to the public. >> new orleans police superintendent anne kirkpatrick, who was oakland's former police chief, announced thursday that the french quarter had new security measures in place after the deadly new year's day attack. >> what you see behind us is what we call hardening the target. so we have brought in heavy trucks. you will see when you go down. bourbon. >> investigators say the attacker, shamsuddin jabar, was a u.s. citizen and a 42 year old u.s. army veteran who drove the white pickup truck into a crowd on bourbon street on new year's day, killing 14 people and injuring many more when he sped around a police barricade. jabar was from texas. he joined the army in 2007 and served in afghanistan. the fbi says he placed some ied or improvised explosive devices in the french quarter. he was killed in a clash with police who responded to the scene. the fbi says he acted alone, but evidence does indicate he was inspired by

isis. >> federal law enforcement and the intelligence community are actively investigating any foreign or domestic contacts and connections that could possibly be relevant to the attack. >> the fbi says they are reviewing hundreds of hours of surveillance video. >> at this point, investigators believe jabar picked up the rented f-150 in houston, texas, on december 30th. he then drove from houston to new orleans on the evening of the 31st. >> on thursday, police searched jabar's home in texas, as well as in new orleans rental property where bomb making materials were found. >> fbi and atf agents have secured that house. we have recovered two laptops and are currently reviewing them for any potential leads. >> the fbi says jabar posted five videos on facebook on the day of the attack between 1:29 a.m. and 3:02 a.m, stating he had joined isis before the summer. the truck in the new orleans and the truck used in the las vegas attacks were both rented through the vehicle sharing platform turo, which has

a headquarters address listed on sec documents at a downtown san francisco office building. turo posted a statement online about the new orleans and vegas rental, saying in part, we do not believe that either renter had a criminal background that would have identified them as a security threat. they also said, we are devastated by these horrible incidents and remain dedicated to helping the authorities however we can. and just in the past hour, the new orleans fbi field office released new photos of jabar and the cooler that was containing the ied. they are asking anyone who saw him to contact the fbi, so they are still actively investigating this. >> christina. 14 people killed in this. have we learned anything about the victims? >> well, the coroner says that they're not releasing a full list yet because they're still in the process of doing the autopsies and notifying family members. we do know one was a former princeton university football star. another an aspiring nurse who was just 18 years old. so these stories are starting to come out. there was one student at san diego state

university who was among the injured, dozens who were injured. so really sad that, you know, at this time where you're starting a new year, these families are mourning. >> right. okay. jana katsuyama with us tonight, jenna. thank you. 14 people, as we mentioned, killed in this attack. and we do know that the sugar bowl was hosted today because of the postponement yesterday, the game between notre dame and georgia was slated for new year's day, but postponed. and security was stepped up at the superdome. president biden did address the tv audience before the game today. >> i'm glad the game is back on for today, but i'm not surprised because the spirit of new orleans can never be kept down. and that's also true of the spirit of america. we just have to remember who we are. we're the united states of america. there is nothing, nothing beyond our capacity when we do it together. >> the president also thanked first responders and extended condolences to the families of the victims. a moment of silence was held before the game, and those attending said they would not let the attack stop them from enjoying their time in the

city. >> it's sad that we have to worry about that in today's day and age, but you know, they say, you know, we have freedom and stuff, but it still comes responsibility with freedom. so we just got to take it easy and keep your head on the swivel and. >> police said fans attending the game would expect to see as much security, if not more, than what was expected to be present at the super bowl next month. notre dame did beat georgia with the final score of 23 to 10. now to some breaking news in southern california, where authorities say a small plane has crashed into a building near the fullerton municipal airport, killing two people and injuring at least 18 more. police say this crash was reported just after 2:00 this afternoon. and in the video here, you can see smoke coming from the top of the building. a heavy police and ems response as well as firefighters. police say the building is a warehouse and contained materials used to manufacture furniture. as we learn more information, we'll bring it to you throughout the

newscast. well, tonight we are also learning more about the new year's day cyber truck explosion outside the trump hotel in las vegas. ktvu greg lee joins us in studio with those details. greg. christina. >> authorities have identified the person they strongly believe was the driver as 37 year old matthew berger of colorado, saying he died from a self-inflicted gunshot before the explosion. berger is a highly decorated, active duty army special operations soldier. >> it's been confirmed by dod that he was indeed in the united states army. he was also a green beret operations sergeant who spent most of his time at fort carson, colorado, and in germany. he was on approved leave from germany, where he was serving with the 10th special forces group. he was also previously in the national guard and the army reserve. >> the sheriff would not definitively identify the remains, but said a military id, passport, credit cards and tattoos all matched. berger to recap the incident. wednesday

morning, a driver in a rented tesla cybertruck pulled up to the glass doors of the trump international hotel off the strip. that explosion happens within 17 seconds of his arrival. investigators say the explosion came from large fireworks, gasoline and camp fuel canisters packed in the truck. seven people were injured by the blast. investigators also found two semi-automatic guns legally purchased by berger on the 30th. authorities are still looking into the motive. >> we're running down investigative leads around the world. no information that we're aware of right now that connects this individual to any terrorist organization around the world. but that's obviously the thrust of the investigation is ruling out that there is any sort of terrorism nexus. >> the fbi said they have found no definitive link between the explosion and the attack in new orleans. law enforcement did point out both men served at fort bragg in north carolina, though not in the same unit, nor at the same time. they bothlso served in afghanistan in 2009. all of thi remains under

investigion. the sheriff also outlined this route that berger tookfter renting that cybertruck i denver. the map shows his charging stops in colora, new mexico and arizona before he arrived to the las vegas strip. president biden, also addressing the vegas explosion today. >> the fbi is working with the department of defense on investigating, including the service member's possible motives and all those he worked with in who served with him, with things he'd say and do. >> authorities today also acknowledged the apparent symbolism of a tesla vehicle catching fire outside a trump building. given the recent history between elon musk and the president elect, still, police say it is much too early to determine a motive here. christina. >> greg lee in studio tonight for us. greg. thank you. the chp is investigating a new year's day head-on collision in the south bay that killed a pregnant woman. the 29 year old woman was a passenger in an suv that was hit by a suspected drunk driver in a pickup truck in gilroy. it

happened aroun 630 yesterday. according to the chp, the pickup was speeding east on wellesley road, eastf w avenue. the truck then crossed over into the westund lane and hit the suv and another car. 50 year old jesus carlos ramirez of mountain view was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence. in antioch, firefighters have gotten control of a fire at a gas station. skyfox overhead this scene about 30 minutes ago in the area of lone tree way and rural road. an aggressive attack appears to have kept the flames from spreading out of control. no one was hurt. the cause is still under investigation. it has been a violent start to the new year in san francisco. three shootings in the first two days of 2025. ktvu christien kafton joining us live from the scene of one of those shootings tonight. christian. >> yeah, as you said, three shootings in just two days. one of them happening right here behind me. now, police say all of the shooters are either in custody or dead. but 2025 has started off pretty deadly. 2025

is off to a deadly start with a series of shootings, including this one shortly after eight thursday morning near alemany boulevard. >> my name is anthony thomas. i'm the father of the deceased male. antoine thomas. he took his took his life for, for some strange reason, i didn't. i didn't get a chance to make it here on time to stop it. and now he's gone. >> anthony thomas said his 24 year old son's girlfriend called him frantically, telling him to come over right away. but by the time he arrived, the tragedy had already unfolded. the younger thomas, he said, dead by his own hand. the girlfriend rushed to the hospital in critical condition and a toddler, also injured but expected to survive. >> the baby was a year and a half year and a half year and a half. so yeah, she's going to have to have to grow up without the dad and everything. he's going to have to grow up without

a dad. >> in a separate incident thursday afternoon, san francisco police confirmed they had arrested a woman in connection with the shooting on the 800 block of bryant. at about 10 a.m, officers arrived on scene and located two victims, an adult male and an adult female suffering from apparent gunshot wounds. >> the victims were transported to the hospital for non-life threatening injuries. >> investigators caught the woman, who they say pulled the trigger hours later in the city's tenderloin district. >> at this time, this is an active investigation. >> san francisco police also say they have a suspect in custody after a homicide on the first day of the year, the first homicide of the year. investigators say shortly after midnight on new year's day, 29 year old jose rivera flores shot a man near the intersection of venice and 17th. >> right after the shooting, the suspect fled from the area in an suv. a few hours later, officers located the suspect vehicle in the area of bayshore and geneva and were able to take the

suspect into custody without further incident. >> and all of this comes on the heels of a year that saw homicides in san francisco drop steeply to their lowest level since the 1960s, with just 35 homicides over the course of 2024. we're live in san francisco, christien kafton, ktvu, fox two news. >> coming up on ktvu news at five. another blow for tesla. what the ev maker is reporting for the first time in a decade. >> also ahead, the state of california does its first of the year snow survey and things are looking up, but they're not guaranteed. [music] >> and barry, whether some scattered high clouds out there. as we head into your thursday evening. we are tracking rain though in your friday forecast, and we'll have the update after the break. >> but first, an update on the butte county boys shot by an intruder on their own school campus. how the family say those boys

killed in a shooting spree in montenegro. a candlelight vigil was held in the small town of cetinje, where tragedy struck on new year's day. police say a 45 year old man opened fire after a bar brawl where he killed the owner, his children and patrons. he then left the scene and killed members of his own family before opening fire in several other locations. the gunman then took his own life after police tracked him down. the government has declared three days of national mourning beginning today. police in new york city are investigating a mass shooting outside of a nightclub in queens. they say at least ten people were shot last night when 3 or 4 gunmen opened fire on a group of people. police say the victims were outside of a

private event celebrating the life of a 16 year old who was recently shot to death. all ten people are expected to survive. no word yet on a motive and no arrests have been made. a five year old boy from butte county is still in the hospital after a school shooting, but his family says there is some good news. elias wolford was shot on december 4th at feather river adventist school. the bullet hit his chest, abdomen and hit multiple organs. he could not move his legs, but his family says. a few days ago, he wiggled his left foot. the second boy who was shot, six year old roman mendez, was released from the hospital five days before christmas, and his family says he is doing well up in the sierra. the state department of water resources took the first official snow survey of the year to help determine where california's water supply stands. ktvu tom vacar shows us what's in the report. >> what we have at this point is a mixed bag of positive news and a fair dose of future concern. california began snow surveys

115 years ago here at phillips station. six specific spots on this meadow have been measured and averaged for 84 years. today, this is just one of 265 snow courses, plus another 130 remote snow sensors blanketing the vast snowpack area. this combo of human surveys and remote sensing gives water planners, farmers, 27 major water agencies and wildlife protectors excellent, accurate and critical information. >> our snowpack is about 110% of average to date, based off our automated snow sensor network. statewide and statewide, precipitation is about 115% of average right now. >> but north of interstate 80, where all the big mega reservoirs are, the snowpack is a whopping 160% of average on this date. one caution though there have been some years where rain and snow seasons started

out gangbusters, only to see the storms mostly disappear after the first of the year. >> back in year 2022, we had 154% of average snowpack on this day in january, but it ended up on april 1st at 37% of average. so we definitely dried out. most of the storms that are predicted are going to be north of california for the next two weeks. >> it's a little early, i think, to have have any concern for more than four decades. >> veteran meteorologist jan null has developed many aspects of weather forecasting and has taught legions of meteorologists the art and science of forecasting. >> having these fluctuations through the course of the year is, you know, is not unexpected. we're not even to the midway point of the rainfall year beyond two week forecasts. >> we're mostly guessing. >> looking farther on out, you know, talking about, you know, long range weather forecasting. you know, it's not there yet.

>> that said, one thing is for sure, we'll need a progression of monthly storms to keep going because otherwise we will end up maybe similar under average by the end of the year. already, things are good enough that the water resources department has increased water deliveries to those with water rights from 5% up to 15% with just the water they already have on hand. tom vacar ktvu fox two news. >> and a nice solid start for northern california with the rainfall and the snowfall. so as you can as you heard in the story. yeah, the nice nice snowpack developing. of course it's a long term deal, right. we need to add some more snow to the base and hopefully that will happen. in fact it will happen in the short term. take a look at the sierra snowpack, the updated numbers from today. it's all breaking down. so remember the atmospheric rivers were focused up in northern california. that pattern clearly reflects that 161% of average up in northern california. those values do begin to come down, though, for central and southern sierra. but a statewide average,

at least with snowpack of 108% of average and more snow in the sierra forecast. with a winter storm warning in place tomorrow for the west slopes of the sierra, and snowfall could be right around 6 to 12in, so this could lead to some issues trying to get over the passes for both 80 and 50 at times throughout the day tomorrow, all in response to our next system, which is offshore here and it moves in tomorrow morning. rainfall expectations about a 10th of an inch to possibly an inch up in the north bay coastal hills. no wind advisories, but we could have winds up above 20 miles an hour. and we talked about the storm warning in the sierra. a lot of clouds streaming into northern california right now. and the focus of the rain is up here along the north coast, right around eureka, right around cape mendocino. that rain line will eventually move to the south first thing tomorrow morning. for right now, though, it's a nice afternoon heading into your thursday evening. and temperatures actually mild in the south bay. san jose 62, san francisco 58 degrees. and that's our live camera right now. and we will gradually thicken up the high cloud cover later on tonight into early tomorrow morning. so rainfall spreads

south first thing tomorrow morning. temperatures will be in the 40s and the 50s. and here is the forecast model. this is 7:00 friday morning. notice it moves to the south at 10:00. so this could be a factor for the morning commute. and then the focus will be kind of draped in the south bay. still the possibility of a few scattered showers for tomorrow afternoon. but once this moves on out, looks like we have a dry weekend forecast. we'll have more on that coming up with your full update in a few minutes. >> sounds good mark. see you then. tesla sales were down for 2020 for their first annual sales drop in a decade. the electric car maker says it delivered nearly 1.8 million vehicles this year. that's down 1.1% from 2023. sales rose in the last quarter thanks to discounts such as 0% financing, free charging and low priced leases. shares of the austin based company are down more than 6% right now, and markets did end the day down as well. the dow jones slipped 151 points, the nasdaq fell 30 points and the s&p dropped 13. today marked

the fifth day in a row of losses for the s&p and nasdaq. their longest streak of losses since april. next at five, a big honor for the woman who took on the federal government during world war two. how president biden is paying tribute to mitsu endo's personal sacrifice and calling it a career in congress. representative barbara lee's message to her

woman received a posthumous award from the white house for her work to address the injustice of japanese incarceration. mitsuye endo. mitsuye endo, excuse me, was honored with the presidential citizens medal at a ceremony in the east room this afternoon. her son, wayne tsutsumi, received the medal in her name. endo, a u.s. citizen, was among 120,000 people of japanese ancestry on the west coast who were forcibly incarcerated. she worked with attorneys to file a lawsuit challenging the order. president biden praised her and the other honorees today. >> our democracy begins and ends with the duties of citizenship. that's our work for the ages. and it's what all of you and i mean this all of you embody. >> endo was offered freedom to drop the case, but she refused. in 1944, the supreme court ruled in her favor, forcing the white house to announce that the camps

would be closed. she died in 2006 after 26 years. today marked oakland congresswoman barbara lee's final day in office. lee shared a lengthy statement on social media along with this picture taken on the day she was first sworn into congress back in 1997. lee said in part, quote, it has been the honor of a lifetime to provide constituent services, deliver federal investments to my district, speak out, and oftentimes be the only one to take tough votes against the tide. she also said she would continue to fight for working families, the middle class and those with low income. lee's next steps remain uncertain. though many have called on her to run for mayor of oakland, she previously told ktvu she's still weighing the decision and would make an official announcement on her plans sometime this month. the house and senate are set to meet for a joint session of congress on january 6th. but if the house does not vote for a speaker tomorrow, that session might not happen. incumbent house speaker mike johnson is on the ballot, and since his tenure

began, some house republicans have been disappointed with his decisions. ten conservatives could vote for someone else. republicans have a razor thin majority in the house. just a few no's from the gop party could put johnson's win at risk. >> investigators now say the suspect in the deadly new year's attack did act alone. i'm rebecca castor in new orleans with the latest on the investigation coming up. >> plus, disaster strikes a hawaiian neighborhood on new year's eve. what authorities say happened right before a lethal amount of fireworks exploded in a carport. and a new year bringing new beginnings in san francisco at 545 tonight. how a relocation is marking a new era for the city's flower market in re ay

dozen people. investigators now believe the suspect, a 42 year old u.s. army veteran, acted alone and say social media posts show he was inspired by isis. >> he originally planned to harm his family and friends, but was concerned the news headlines would not focus on the, quote, war between the believers and the disbelievers. >> the fbi says the suspect rented the truck in houston on december 30th, and then drove it to new orleans. on thursday, police searched his texas home for potential evidence, as well as a rented new orleans property where bomb making materials were found. >> fbi and atf agents have secured that house. we have recovered two laptops and are currently reviewing them for any potential leads. >> and despite concerns, the sugar bowl kicked off this afternoon after being pushed back a day, national guard troops and police deployed to secure the scene. louisiana officials, now facing questions over whether the city is prepared to host future events, including the super bowl and

mardi gras. >> we're ready to continue to host large scale events in our city because we are built to host at every single turn. >> and at this time, the fbi says there was no evidence directly linking the tragedy here in new orleans to that cybertruck explosion in las vegas. christina, back to you. >> rebecca, you're on the ground there in new orleans. do you get the sense from people that they feel safe? >> we do. you know, the sugar bowl just ended. we have a lot of fans coming from the superdome over to bourbon street to celebrate tonight. and, you know, everywhere you turn, you see a police officer. so i think that is really calming some people's concerns. >> okay. so we're about a month out from the super bowl there in new orleans as well. do city officials have any specific plans that they've talked about in terms of doing things differently for events like the super bowl? >> yeah. one thing they're going to do differently, christina, is they are going to have atf

specialists here in new orleans. these are people that are able to detect makeshift bombs. they're going to be, you know, crisscrossing the city during the super bowl to, you know, see if there are any ieds or explosives, you know, similar to the ones that were here on new year's eve. >> and last question before i let you go today, officials clarifying they believe the suspect acted alone. did they clarify why they changed the initial information from seeing different people on surveillance video to now saying he was just a lone attacker? >> they didn't give specific details about what changed their mind, but we do know that they did interview four people that were looking suspicious on that security footage yesterday. and after speaking with them, they just kind of determined these people were bystanders that happened to look suspicious. so but they're keeping those people close just in case they need to ask any more questions. >> okay. rebecca castro live for us tonight in new orleans. rebecca. thank you. we'll have more coverage of the new orleans attack coming up on ktvu news at

six. and of course, you can always get the latest information at your fingertips by downloading our fox local app. we're learning more tonight about what led up to a deadly fireworks explosion in hawaii. it happened on new year's eve at the stroke of midnight, inside the carport of a home near honolulu's airport. three people were killed and more than 20 others were hospitalized with injuries, including severe burns and shrapnel wounds. investigators say a bundle of fireworks fell over onto its side after it was lit, and set off crates containing other fireworks. neighbors say the incident continues to haunt them when the big bombers. >> exactly at 12, was the bomb. and then i knew it was bad because just part of my house. i have the old jealousy windows. it rattled and i've never had that before. i looked and i just seen people screaming and stuff and everybody was everywhere. >> hawaii's governor said the victim's injuries were so horrific, they were comparable to injuries that one might suffer in a war zone. police are

now investigating whether to charge the person who lit the fireworks. still ahead tonight, the former president's life work, taking the global stage after his passing. how? family members of jimmy carter say they intend to carry on his legacy. >> and a bay area weather wrapping up. a nice day out there today with just some high clouds drifting into the bay area. right now, those clouds are linked up with our next rainmaker for tomorrow, but then eventually we're going to really dry things out. we'll have your forecast coming up. >> also ahead, staying on track and celebrating your successes. experts weigh in on how to make those new year's resolutions last more than just a month. [music]

being remembered here in the u.s. and overseas, where he is still making a mark on global affairs. as vox's steve harrigan tells us, that work will go on at the institute that bears his name. >> the life and legacy of jimmy carter is being remembered and celebrated across the country and on the world stage. the panamanian government, celebrating the 25th anniversary of its control over the panama canal, which was made possible by a deal signed by carter during his term as president. panama's president used the occasion to push back on recent calls for the canal to revert back to u.s. control. >> president jimmy carter, former president jimmy carter

had the vision and nobility to take the right path for the canal to have the nationality it deserved the panamanian one. >> here at home, carter is being remembered as much for his post-presidency as his time in the oval office. he was closely associated with habitat for humanity, working well into his 90s on construction sites around the country. >> it would be the grace of god if we can find another human like jimmy carter, the man he had love. he cared for people. and in this world, you got to know love. >> the carter family released a statement on thursday, writing in part, quote, we are sincerely grateful for everyone's words of comfort and acts of kindness following the passing of such a champion of human rights, justice and peace. the organization he founded says they will continue his work. >> they felt the carter center was in good hands, and for them to feel that their legacy was going to be carried on was this moment of relief for all of us.

>> saturday, carter will lie in repose at the carter center in atlanta. steve harrigan, fox news. >> well, it is officially the new year, and with a change to the calendar year, many people are hoping to make changes within themselves. millions of americans make resolutions each new year. a large majority tend to focus on health, exercise or diet, but really, how many people stick with them? a study by columbia university shows only about 25% of people actually stay committed to their goals after the first month earlier on the floor. we spoke with clinical psychologist pam oren from kaiser permanente in walnut creek about what might help you stick to your goals. >> so instead of saying something like, i'm going to go to the gym five days a week, it would be better to scale that back. i'm going to go three days a week, and then if you go four, you're feeling really good about yourself. if you set it at five and you go, you miss a day, you're going to be like, well, i failed. i guess i can just give up the rest of the week. and so we want to set ourselves up for

success as opposed to failure. >> doctor oren also recommends the smart goal method of setting goals that are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time bound. new at five, apple will pay $95 million to settle a proposed class action lawsuit over its siri voice assistant. owners said that apple routinely recorded their private conversations after they activated siri unintentionally. plaintiffs said their conversations triggered ads for products including sneakers and chain restaurants. individuals will receive up to $20 per device. the settlement was filed in oakland and will require a judge's approval. a similar lawsuit on behalf of users of google's voice assistant is pending in san jose. still ahead tonight, the 49ers holding their heads high as they prepare for their final game of the season. how quarterback josh dobbs is preparing for his first start for the red and gold country. >> right now in the world that's opening a wholesale flower market in a heavy, a heavy city like san francisco is.

their final game of the season, and the niners did hit the practice field today with backup

quarterback josh dobbs. he will be starting for the first time this season due to brock purdy's elbow injury in monday night's loss to the detroit lions. on sunday, the niners will be playing the arizona cardinals, which is one of dobbs former teams. this game is sort of like an audition for dobbs. he'll be able to show his game skills to the niners and teams around the league, who might be looking for a new quarterback next season. >> it's always an audition, not only for the team that you're on, but for the other 31 teams, especially knowing my contract situation and being a free agent in march. so it's an opportunity to go out and show what i can do. here's a 49ers in this scheme, as well as for other opportunities. so i kind of let free agency, all that stuff work itself out when that time comes, but i'm just excited for the opportunity to get on the field and play. >> dobbs will be a free agent in march, and this will be his 15th career start. besides the 49ers and the cardinals, he also played in prior seasons with the minnesota vikings, tennessee titans and pittsburgh steelers for at least four 49ers. this

season will not be over after sunday. the nfl announced the rosters for the pro bowl in orlando on february 2nd. tight end george kittle. fullback kyle juszczyk, defensive end nick bosa and linebacker fred warner all made the cut. more niners could go to the pro bowl as alternates if other players drop out. the pro bowl will feature a flag football game instead of tackle football. there will also be skills components leading up to the game, such as dodgeball and tug of war. well, the new year is also marking a new location for san francisco's flower market. ktvu amanda quintana takes us inside for the grand opening. >> this day is for myself, right to, like, explore everything over here. and this is like my home for nearly 60 years. >> the flower market on sixth and brannan was home to growers, florists, wedding planners, any and all flower lovers. but today the flower market has its own new home in potrero hill. a big deal not just for these

customers, but for the global floral industry. >> there's no country right now in the world that's opening a wholesale flower market in a heavy, a heavy city like san francisco is. >> san francisco flower market executive director jenny taggart bowes says when a developer bought the old market in 2014, it was scary for a lot of flower businesses as this market is the main source for florals in northern california. >> luckily, the city of san francisco went to bat for our historic market and with the help of supervisor aaron peskin, we were able to renegotiate a deal where the market could move one time to a permanent location and give these these vendors a chance to survive a really expensive city in an industry where our margins are really short, customers from as far as lake tahoe depend on this market, and many were up before the sun to see the new space. >> they've been promising me this new market for ten years and so i had to come see it.

>> amanda quintana, ktvu, fox two news. >> well, a nice friday out there with mostly sunny skies. the high clouds are increasing right now. we're talking about some rain as we do move into your friday forecast first thing tomorrow morning up in the north bay. take a look at some of the highs from this afternoon. san francisco, upper 50s. but look at san jose in the upper 60s. so some mild temperatures in the south bay. most areas tomorrow will be just a bit cooler as that system comes on board. what's interesting with the seasonal rainfall going back to october 1st? it's still pretty early on, but take a look at the difference here. up in the north coast, crescent city, even up into santa rosa, you could see over 200% of average. by contrast, look at this. the southern california area, santa barbara, los angeles and san diego. not even an inch. you can see only 4% of average in los angeles. and it looks like this pattern kind of remains in place into the weekend and into next week. in fact, southern california, they could be talking about high fire danger into next week. now, here's our next system coming on board. you can see rainfall expectations

about a 10th of an inch to possibly an inch. no wind advisories, but winds could be up above 20 miles an hour. and the sierra for the west slopes, they have a winter storm warning in place tomorrow. take a look at the rainfall breakdown. just like we've been talking about these past few storms, the bulk of the rainfall will be focused up in the north bay, possibly near nearly an inch of rain up in the north bay hills and then down in the south bay. could be maybe around a quarter of an inch. as that system comes on board, that rainfall eventually moves to the south throughout the day tomorrow. here's the satellite and the radar. so far, the focus of the rain has been up along the north coast, right around eureka, cape mendocino. those clouds are up here as well, and those clouds will eventually be on the increase later on tonight into early tomorrow morning. take a look at the current numbers as we show you the 5:00 numbers in san jose, 62 degrees, livermore mid 50s and santa rosa in the upper 50s at 59. beautiful here, as you can see, looking out toward the oakland estuary and then some scattered high clouds already kind of working their way back into the area for this

evening. heads up. we've been talking a lot about the surf over the past couple of weeks, and another high surf advisory begins tomorrow night. so tomorrow they call what they have a beach hazard statement, but the swell will be building throughout the day on friday saturday, peaking 15 to 18ft and then coming down a little bit for the second half of the weekend. so just be extra careful if you are visiting the coastline over the next few days. here's our next system moving in from the pacific. this will be the source of some rainfall for tomorrow for your friday and then into the weekend. this area of high pressure returns and this will bring in dry weather. and it looks like for an extended amount of time into the weekend and into next week, here's the forecast model. tomorrow morning, 6:00 there's that rain moving into the north bay. this is 10:00 tomorrow morning, drifting closer to san francisco and oakland. by 12:00, the focus could be in the south bay throughout the afternoon hours. there's still the possibility of some scattered showers, but the main brunt of that system moves out later on tomorrow and then into saturday into the weekend. probably just a sun cloud mix. highs for tomorrow will be cooler than today. 50s warmest locations approaching the lower

60s. here's a look ahead. your five day forecast. the weekend will be dry, just a mixture of sun and clouds, and then we'll keep an eye on some stronger winds by sunday night into monday. but it looks like this dry weather stretch wants to kick in this weekend and stick around into next week. >> cristina rendon mark. thank you. take a look at this. hundreds of dinosaur footprints have been discovered in the uk. researchers from england's birmingham and oxford universities discovered these footprints in a lime quarry. they are believed to date back to the middle jurassic period, which is about 166 million years ago. researchers say four of the tracks were made by gigantic, long necked, herbivorous dinosaurs called sauropods. it's being called one of the largest dinosaur track sites in the world. meghan markle is making a return to the screen, this time with her own lifestyle show. >> i've always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it, surprising people. >> this netflix series is called with love. meghan netflix says it will showcase practical how
