in fact we do have some sierra snow on the way. not much, but feeling more like february in the next day. so right any live doppler 7hd you see some of the fog banked up along the shoreline and we also have fog to the east of us. there's a weather system coming tomorrow. that should mix things up a bit. from our sutro tower camera temperatures are ranging it from the low 50s in san francisco, 41 half moon bay. it is much cooler at the coast. 49 palo alto, 47 in san jose. and here's a look from our exploratorium camera where it is clear, but then you will run into some dense fog from petaluma to napa with numbers dropping into the upper 30s. we haven't seen 30s in a while. that's what it should feel lake in february. we are looking at the cooler start everywhere. even if it's just a couple of degrees. out by the delta and you throw in fog there it feels cool and damp. and all around the bay a good five degrees colder this morning from hayward, san carlos and mountain view. the fog perhaps creating a problem from santa rosa to petalu

november 14, and prior to that and sierra leone in august. i would like to thank the minister for making time to come to the united states from liberia in the midst of the beginning of the vaccine trials and so much of the work he has been involved with. i really appreciate also you mentioned a shocking number of healthcare workers and liberia have been infected with ebola virus. in fact who this week their weekly their weekly update around 830 healthcare workers in west africa altogether you have been infected with the virus in almost 500 u of died. i wonder if you could offer suggestions or ideas for how perhaps the region and the world could have helped more in terms of providing healthcare providers to take care of so many patients and liberia and in the region, particularly as you mentioned during a terribly dark day july, august or september. >> down in front. >> such a dynamic recount of the ebola outbreak and the multinational approach by the people of liberia to get us to zero. and so i i commend you and your team on the work that ha

meanwhile over the sierra still dry.he showers can start to fall over the sierra. we pick up a little bit of patchy drizzle maybe. as we get in to the afternoon the system starts to slide south and when it does looks like a few scattered showers may pop up over the diablo range. we won't see much of any of this a few inches of snow expected for the sierra. that's good news. s sit -- the system will continue to move before sunday. today mostly sunny. temperatures like where we have been. mid60's to low 70s. ridge of high pressure continuing to dominate the weather pattern. when the system sweeps through it'll pick up the winds. tomorrow could be gusty and it'll bring a cooling tend. today will be the warmer day of the weekend. 452 degrees right now in oakland. 43nevado. temperatures are slowly beginning to turn around. the better clearing in the overnight hours and early this morning. 65 expected for nevado. relatively mild out there. above average for this time of year. upper 60s in areas like livermore, brentwood, castr

look at the snow there in the sierra and last weekend we had two inches of snow in the sierra from those showers. now this system is going to make a difference as you can see there. elevations above 8,000 feet may pick up more than a foot. there's great news for the sierra and about at least six inches there at 6,000 feet and snow levels maybe as low as just below 4,000 feet with the system coming in late tomorrow into saturday. rain totals, though, not great for the bay area. take what we get. most of it likely falling on saturday. so today it's dry. tomorrow we see a chance of showers coming back into the picture. weekend, plan on scattered showers to start things off saturday. then skies clear. temperatures staying cool as you wrap up the weekend. another check of your thursday commute, what's going on with mike? >> big change in the commute now is looking here towards fremont, traffic moving smoothly. big changes at the bay bridge. touch on that later in the commute. there's the bay bridge. here we go. traffic flowing nicely. metering lights turned on. the stack up. fremont, the park

there's some green, some snow in the sierra nevada.s today. wind advisory with wind gusts in the upper elevations, upwards of 30 miles per hour from the north to east bay hills. we will be looking at 10 to 20 miles per hour winds and it will be dry with sunny conditions. here's sutro with numbers in response. mid-and upper 50s from the coast and looking at 54 in oakland. the fog is down and the wind continues to increase in the upper elevation winds. we will be looking at a cooler day today. and it will be with us throughout the even hours. we will talk about the last week in february coming up. >> thank you lisa. cool here, but a winter storm watch in effect for the northeast this morning, as wild weather continues to cover the state with snow and ice from maine to the midwest. in tennessee two dozen employees of a printing company managed to escape before their building's roof collapsed. much of the south is in a state of emergency. tens of thousands are still without power. the winter weather is also causing accidents, and snarling

. >> good afternoon, supervisors, my name is sue vaughn, i'm the chair of the sf group of the sierra club, but i'm here speaking on my own. supervisors, a pandora's box of problem for muni and other public transit agency and statewide could be opened unless we all act fast. a republican assemblyman from southern california has introduced ab 61 to amend the state vehicle code 2250.5 which prohibits all, but common carriers, muni and other public transportation agencies, buss from operating in public bus stops. this bill quite simply is an attempt to circumvent environmental review. and the tech companies to mitigate their impacts. apple's 4th quarter profits were greater -- and other tech companies with similarly wealthy. and environmentally review would assess the impacts of these buss from everything ranging from safety pedestrian and bicycle safety and infrastructure impacts to evictions and hyperinflation of housing prices. these companies can afford to mitigate for their impacts. why is a republican assemblyman from southern california introducing legislation to privatize our bus

lingering on into saturday and there you see that much-needed snow in the sierra. so the five-day trend tomorrow begins to bring showers back in for friday. saturday, seeing showers to start the weekend and turning drier and breezy once against towards sunday. another check of the thursday commute over to mike. >> canadian air conditioning the a.c. -- a. -- never mind. san mateo bridge might make it worse, worse than the joke as far as slower driving. suggesting that. east bay, show you the map and slowdown you see. southbound 880, just past dakota where the dumbarton bridge cut over is. causing traffic to back up a lot through union city heading south. if you're in the northern portion of union city or heyward, consider that san mateo bridge heading towards the peninsula y peninsula anyway. both of those bridges unimpeded by incidents. look at the feeder routes heading over out of the tri-valley. this is dublin. a crash westbound 580, santa rita made its way to the shoulder, a little distraction could cause more slowing in livermore. 680 show as build or two sunol

highs today in the low 50s in the northern sierra. 64 southern sierra. the coast. but you overall we're still above average from fremont to livermore up in santa rosa, down around morgan hill cooler half moon bay san francisco, the accuweather seven-day forecast breezy, sprinkle, more clouds and tomorrow, and temperatures will be kind of average for a change. that will take us into monday and then sunny. a few more clouds in here the middle of the week but nothing to bust through that ridge. in fact, we're back to upper 60s to near 70 for the end of february. >> we don't get the rain but at least we have some sun to head outside and enjoy it. >> we do. it is what it is. >> exactly. lisa, thank you so much. turning to sports, the warriors are traveling to indiana today to face the pacers tomorrow night. it's the start of a grueling six-game road trip. but last night they returned from the all-star break at oracle arena against the spurs, one of only two teams to beat them on their home floor this season. here is sports director larry beil with the highlig

most of it will focus its energy toward the sierra nevada. but we will get some rain out of it on saturday. 50s and 60s. out of those 70s for awhile here. happy friday, sal. >> thank you, steve. we are looking at a commute where traffic is going to be busy if you are driving around the bay area but not stop and go. busy for this time of the morning. a lot of people out there. but still plenty of room for you. let's go outside and take a look at what we have. only 17 minutes. so certainly a lot of people with you. but it's going to be nice. this is a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. that is a light commute. some people on the right hand side there. but for the most part it will be a nice commute with no major problems if you are driving into the city or for that matter if you are driving from san francisco to oakland. and if you're on the peninsula, highway 101 looks good and so does 280 heading down south. 4:30, let's go back to the desk. >>> an investigation is under way into a deadly police shooting in san francisco. two plain clothed off

again, it's more for the sierra.about 6 to 10 inches of snow above 6,000 feet over the week. for us, it will be more scattered showers. some fog, most of it, though, a little bit -- excuse me. hy to cough there -- i had to cough there. if you have been fighting the bug, it doesn't let go. >> our system is giving us mostly sunny skies. 30s for a few but a lot of 40s and 50s. the cloud cover the high cloud deck. 42 now for woodside, palo alto, still holding onto 39. la hon -- 48 for foster city. one system here. it's gonna be a lot of snow going into iowa and the great lakes, for chicago as well. minneapolis more snow there. denver is looking for a possibility of three to eight that would give them a record for february. it's already into cheyenne. the upslope is probably going to kick in any time for them. here's the big system out of texas, arkansas and into northern louisiana. they are talking about freezing rain. a wide variety all the way to the carolinas and up to the north. it's just a who-- whopper. for us, we

the sky but dry until tomorrow that is what the light showers will be developing with snow in the sierra. the big concern is saturday with a possibility of a thunderstorm or two and small hail and snow is heavier in the sierra. that is coming up in the big forecast. >>> we have good news streets are getting safer, the most dangerous streets for pedestrians. a new report from the highway association says that less pedestrians killed than in 2013 for the first month. california is the second worse state for pedestrian deaths behind florida. hour numbers combined with the other three states florida, texas and new york make up half of all deaths in the united states for pedestrians. >> part of the plan do cut back on pedestrian deaths san francisco is hard at work on new crosswalks painting zebra lines to make them more visible. the crosswalks have been used near schools but the plan is to repaint hundreds of crosswalks on the busy streets. officials say it is a quick and inexpensive way to improve state. >> union supporters of those who shuttle around apple employees are protesting outside

more for the sierra than us, it will be close.e colder and windy on sunday into monday, after this fog lifts, enjoy the sunshine because change is on the weekend. it will start on saturday, not only the inland variety but the coastal variety they have definitely come together which means we have a foggy pattern here. even the areas fogs come up the hill, for some it is really socked in. higher clouds staying south, it is a tiny little band, some 30s this morning, a few 40s but a lot of 50s because they are stuck in the fog, about 1 to 2- miles, there are areas about a half mile. 50s on the temps, 46. 55 san jose, upper 40s for a few here, i know hillsburg, lake port, and 56 degrees, right there. a little low. once that goes far enough south the breeze should turn northerly. it settled over the north baby monday. fog overcast may take awhile. morning looks pretty much sold out, the breeze will settle later on. 60s for most, isolated. especially santa rosa, that usually warms them up. >> that bridge is cleared steve, the good news i

you don't live in the sierra if you are watching this broadcast. let's take the sierra to you. what 22% of average snow pack looks like. that is yosemite. that is near homestead point. elizabeth was hiking there a couple of days ago. that is at 8100 feet of elevation. 8,000 feet up and there is zero snowfall. i have good news. the long range climate prediction center outlook paints a wetter an average picture for all of california including the sierra and the bay area. this is coming up more than a week from now. likely not starting until early march, but it is something. some bit of hope that we can get some snow in the sierra and some rainfall around here. tonight, there will be low clouds, fog. 48 degrees. oakland, 51. san jose, 49 degrees. why no rain from days one to seven, why are we looking eight to 14 days? we have two ridges of high pressure. the one to the south has been dominant. a lot of cloud cover. we got the afternoon sunshine. it has felt like june for a second morning in a row. we say good-bye to that ridge. it is all about that ridge to the north that will giv

we do have showers across parts of the sierra this morning.hen we come back, we are going to talk about if any of those showers will make their way into the bay area. >>> welcome back. 7:52. we want to start off with some showers this morning. showers developing across the central valley and over towards the sierra. that's where the brunt of the storm will stay today. one or two of the showers will make their way into the bay air kra, mostly across the altamont pass. even down towards gilroy, more began corridor. overall, not expecting a lot of rain today. we will see across the central coastline and down towards l.a. and the sierra. that's where we are expecting the brunt of this system. nonetheless, it will be enough to get the ground wet where we do see the showers. right now, waking up to clear skies and the north bay with a little bit of coastal fog. in the north bay, chilly. 38 degrees. 47 in the south bay. 50 right now in san francisco. later on, san francisco, up to 68. cooler in the south bay because of the cloud cover that will devel

we had a case of the disease and imagine the entire region, guinea liberia and sierra leone, there was no -- in liberia. so we needed to take the specimen across the border to have it tested and know whether or not we're dealing with ebola virus disease. and before that, liberia was also battling the endemic of fever. the signs of ebola are related to some of the common diseases that we were seeing in our health system like fever headaches, vomiting bleeding from all of the orifice, from your nose, from your ears, from your eyes, those are signs and symptoms of lhasa fever so we could not really distinguish between whether or not it was ebola or lhasa fever. so the first case was that our minister of health pronounced to the world that ebola outbreak was in liberia, we notified the world organization that we had a disease in the region. it was the first time that ebola had leapt since the history of ebola since 1976. ebola had been in east african area. we have no knowledge in west africa of such disease and this was the first time. so the health system was not that equipped to the ext
