North bay and thats going to last through at least 9 00 this morning. So, hopefully you have the pets inside and protected or sheltered some way. Your plants also because this is the type of freeze that will end the growing season. And then weve also got the possibility of some pipes bursting as we get down into the mid 20s. Hopefully everything is taken care of through 9 00 this morning. You see we have upper 20s in places like ronard park and petaluma should be 38 not 28 and 29 in fairfield and how about some other areas and youre going to find some frosty spots around lafayette at 32 and close in san ramon at 33 and just like yesterday if you dealt with frost in the morning more than likely youll wake up with frost during the Morning Hours. As we head through the morning, you can see the feelslike temperature which factors in the wind chill is about the same as it temperature outside unlike yesterday when we had the wind chills that were in the low 20s. Mike, thank you. Today president elect joe biden will talk about his plans for health care. Hes already at work tackling the coronavirus pandemic, meanwhile, President Trump and his team are still defiant. Theyre claiming still that the election was stolen and providing no evidence to back that up. Abc News Reporter alex presha live in washington with also new information about Pfizers Covid19 vaccine. Hi, alex. Thats right, reggie. So, some good news in the fight against the coronavirus. A Drugmaker Pfizer announcing that its vaccine has more than 90 effectiveness in some lateround clinical trials. This is coming as president elect biden is trying to pave a path for this country to get past a pandemic. As the u. S. Passes 10 million covid cases, joe biden is welcoming the vaccine breakthrough but warning more work to be done. The challenge before us right now is still immense and growing. Were still facing a very dark winter. Reporter mask wearing often politicized by the president , biden is trying to reset that conversation. I want to be very clear. The goal of mask wearing is not to make your life less comfortable. Its to give Something Back to all of us. A normal life. Reporter monday, he was briefed by his new Coronavirus Task force. Biden planning to ramp up testing, Contact Tracing and get more ppe for Health Care Workers and assess the Racial Disparities with the virus. Today biden is expected to talk about his plans for health care as the Supreme Court hears another challenge to the Affordable Care act this morning. Meanwhile, the white house had its own covid briefing led by Vice President mike pence for the first time in nearly three weeks. President trump largely out of sight since bidens victory speech and still refusing to concede. This election is not over. Far from it. Reporter President Trump and his team have presented no credible evidence of voter fraud and overnight the head of election crimes at the department of justice resigning after attorney general william barr issued a new policy to u. S. Attorneys. Telling them to pursue substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities. Voter fraud would typically begin after state certified results, weeks after an election. And right now a trump appointed administrator to the General Services administration has not yet recognized the results of this election. Until that happens, the agency is withholding Transition Resources from joe biden. Its something that bidens lawyers have threatened legal action over. In wilmington, delaware, alex, presha. The Supreme Court will hear a case today aiming to strike down the Affordable Care act. Jobina, this could wipe out insurance for millions of americans. Lawyers for the Trump Administration and 18 republicanled states would argue the mandate to send constitutional. That part of the law requires nearly all americans to buy Health Insurance or pay a tax. The court has rejected two previous attempts to throw out obamacare. Normally the Supreme Court when they rule something unconstitutional, it takes effect immediately. But its really hard to find a precedent of a Supreme Court decision that would have such a sweeping effect on the country. 21 million americans are at risk of losing their coverage, if the court rules in favor of the Trump Administration. 54 Million People could be unable to find insurance due to preexisting conditions. The justices could take until june to reveal their decision. The Trump Administration has not said how they would replace the Affordable Care act. Reggie . Thank you, jobina.

Some recommendations this Holiday Season saying the safest thing to do is celebrate with people in your household and celebrate virtually with other relatives and friends. We asked people their thoughts on getting together during the holidays. To me to hear that theres a spike when literally everywhere i go everyone is following procedures, its hard for me to believe. Where is the spike coming from . I have a coworker went to a Family Gathering and then they all ended up with covid. So, no. Here are the recommendations from local health leaders. Avoid nonessential travel, if you travel, quarantine for 14 days when you get home. Group gatherings should be small and short. Gather outside. Wear masks, stay distanced apart, snow more than three households should get together and you should gather for no more than two hours. These are recommendations, not requirements. But officials are very worried as the number of cases go up. Reporting live at sfo, amy hollyfield, abc7 news. Thank you, amy. You can keep track of where your county stands.

We have two systems that will roll through. One thursday night into friday morning and then another friday afternoon into saturday morningpen we hamorn ing. We have showers at time and a small chance of some lightning and thunder. That is looking less likely as we get closer. Here we are thursday at 4 00 in the afternoon. Up along the oregon border the best chance of rain and this storm will weaken as you can see the cloud or the rain shield breaking up as we head into the evening hours and through friday morning. So, definitely some slick spots for fridays morning commute and then look at friday evening. We have a better chance into saturday morning of some wet weather but that looks more impressive than the rainfall totals out there. As you can see a third of an inch in the north bay to just a couple hundredths of an inch in the south bay. Heres jobina with a look at the morning commute. Thank you, mike. Good morning, everybody. Well start off here with a live look showing you emeryville checking out 80 right now. The headlights making their way westbound. The chp is not reporting any problems on the road right now.

Temperatures in the 20s and 30s through 7 00. 54 to 58 at noon and then 53 to 59. A lot of us will reach the 60 degree mark for a couple hours this afternoon. So, a little bit milder than yesterday.

Even a 70 in palm springs and a 47 in tahoe today and look at this forecast for tahoe. Theyre finally going to get out of the deep freeze for a day or two. Dry cold front will bring us back into the 30s thursday and then a chance of snow friday and saturday and more next week when we have our chance of rain, too. Kumasi. Ill take it, thanks, mike.

Jon venverloh sent abc a statement saying he disagrees with his wifes statements and mehridith blamed a medical condition for her reduced judgment. Today the San Francisco board of education will consider a plan to reopen Public Schools in january. Three of the seven Board Members support this plan. It includes reopening Elementary Schools for students with disabilities, plus students in preschool, traditional kindergarten and first grade. Other grades would be added later on.

The San FranciscoMarin Food Bank just received its annual donation of 1,000 turkeys from foster farms. The birds distributed to more than 200 local agencies and provide enough turkey to serve 15,000 people. We are serving 55,000 households, which is nearly double what we were doing prepandemic. So this year more important than ever. Foster farms has already donated more than 2 Million Pounds of chicken during the pandemic. In sacramento, the capital Christmas Tree has arrived and it is ready to be decorated. Lets look at it. This years tree is a white fir. 60 feet tall donated from the state to shasta county.

Theyre in their late 70s. 39 in san jose right now. Lets take a look at your accuweather highlights.

The new information we learned about pfizers promising vaccine including when and how it could be distributed. Good morning, welcome to tuesday, november 10th. Before we get to those stories we want to check in with mike and our chilly little forecast we had this morning. The big story is the frosty cold temperatures, especially up in the north bay where it could end the growing season if you didnt protect your plants during the overnight hours. Were in the middle 20s to lower 30s and also a chance of frost through 9 00 and other neighborhoods. Lets go to the east bay valleys where we have freezing cold temperatures in danville and pleasa pleasanton and 33 in san ramon and dublin. Youll find frost around there, also. Lets look at some other neighborhood. More moderate around the bay as you would expect closer you are to water the more likely you are to be milder. We have 40s in hayward, oakland and into the south bay, we have mid to upper 30s. All right. Well have high clouds and sunshine, just like yesterday. Temperatures a little bit milder. 61 in San Francisco to concord at 65 and 63 at san jose and oakland at 66 and santa rosa. Kumasi. Thank you, mike. This morning are threatening legal action over Transition Resources. Refusing to recognize election results. Jobina is at the live desk for what this means on the transition team. They need a single signature from the head of the gsa to get millions of dollars fro s from g and communicate with legal challenges but murphy refuses. The wibiden campaign is urging murphy to approve the transition and any further delay could disrupt the transfer of power. Put aside the rhetoric that is designed to demonize one another. Meanwhile, a protest resignation at the department of justice, the head of election crimes quitting after a attorney general william barr gave prosecutors approval to investigate Election Fraud allegations even though theres no evidence of any wrongdoing. The order breaks with Longstanding Justice Department policy to delay any investigations until after state certify their results and it comes after federal and state judges have thrown out multiple lawsuits from the Trump Campaign citing a lack of evidence. Kumasi. Thank you, jobina. Well, the Affordable Care act is headed back to the Supreme Court today. The Health Insurance of tens of millions of americans is on the line. And protections for 54 million americans is at stake, as well. 18 states backed by the Trump Administration are asking the high court to eliminate it entirely. 21 states are defending the law. Californias attorney general javier is leading the effort to save it. Cases are surging in every state, including here in california. Today we could see a partial rollback of the reopening plan. Dr. Mark ghaly is set to reveal those changes at noon and abc7 News ReporterJulian Glover is live in san jose with the surge in cases that are likely leading to the rollback. Julian . Good morning, reggie. Three months since the state rolled out that color coded reopening plan and now we expect several counties to go backwards into more restrictive categories into the reopening plan. In a News Conference on monday Alpine County will be among the counties that go backwards and be forced to reduce some indoor activities, capacities and perhaps even shut down some businesses. Its unclear if other counties will be on that list. The governor said while the Positivity Rate in california is right around 3. 7 and that may be good relative when compared to other states. Just a few weeks ago, the Positivity Rate here in california was 2. 5 . People are letting their guard down. Theyre taking their masks off. Theyre starting to get together outside of their household cohorts. Theyre starting to see businesses reopen and were starting again to see more people mixing as it gets colder. In that household that s noa see household gatherings as a major source of transition but we can make important end roads and our own choices can really reduce that transmission. Dr. Mark ghaly health and Human Services secretary for the state said contact tracers are finding private home gatherings are the top source of transmission currently. Which counties will be rolling back reopening and here in Santa Clara County the top doctor, dr. Sarah cody mentioned in a press conference that we saw a 358 case spike rivaling the spike that we recently saw in mid july. Record highs there and just some new numbers in overnight from our assignment desk just learning that there were 250 additional confirmed cases in the last 24 hours here in Santa Clara County. Reporting live here in downtown san jose, Julian Glover, abc7 news. That is really concerning. Were starting to see the numbers creep up here and in other states its even worse. Lets go to texas and especially the area of el paso where theyre having to do pretty grim things to respond to what is happening there. The top administrator fears the deaths could reach 20 per day within the next two weeks. Deaths. The county says its running out of space to keep bodies because of the growing number of coronavirus cases. Youve got a potential of ten morgues in your community. The trajectory does not look good at all and that to me is extremely scary. Climate control trailers and trucks have been set up to store these bodies. New developments, elielielii just receive emergency use. It is meant for treatin patients at high risk or getting worse, i should say, and needing hospitalization. The u. S. Will allocate 300,000 doses with no out of pocket costs for patients. Were learning more this morning about the possible breakthrough in the development of a vaccine. Pfizer says the vaccine is more than 90 effective in preventing infection. Case la kate larsen. If a vaccine is safe and effective in at least 50 effective, it could be approved. So at 90 , which is more effective than the flu vaccine, i have heard several doctors call the Pfizer Vaccine a home run. Help is on the way. Reporter top u. S. Infectious disease expert dr. Anthony fauci says early test results indicates Pfizers Covid vaccine is 90 effective. Which is extraordinary and will play a major role in what the outcome of this is going to be. So what do you think the soonest someone in San Francisco or the bay area could receive the Pfizer Vaccine is . I think its possible that it could happen before the end of the year. Dr. Susan is an epidemiologist with San Franciscos department of Public Health and running the bay areas astrazeneca trial. She says pfizers good news bodes well for all vaccine candidates being tested in the u. S. Right now because while they all use different methodologies they have something in common. So while some people were saying, you know, you may be putting all your eggs in one basket by all focusing on the spike protein, it looks like we chose the right basket. So, all of these different vaccines may actually then also be very promising and provide some protection. Reporter there is something unusual about the Pfizer Vaccine. Pfizer vaccine requires negative 70 degree storage. Reporter is 50 degrees below your typical home freezer. Shipped from pfizer on dry ice and shipped in a very specialized packaging container that they have been working on for some time. Reporter ryan, Vice President of pharmacy for Sutter Health says they spent 100,000 on 14 specialty freezers, some of which are portable. These units are something about the size of an igloocooler and they can run on a car power and keep the vaccine at a correct temperature so we can move it around Southern California. It is important to keep in mind that the trial is not over. More time and data as well as peer review. Also not clear how long the vaccine, which requires two injections, would provide immunity. And its possible that annual boosters like the flu shot would be needed. In the newsroom, im kate larsen, abc7 news. Coming up the current spike has moved another event out of the bay area. Olympic gold medalists and bay area native Kristi Yamaguchi has encouraging words for the athletes. What do you do when something is bothering you at work . A lot of people wouldnt mind talking it over with a robot. But, first, a real life human. Jobina fortson. Thank you, guys. We have a couple issues going on in san jose right now. I first want to start off with a deadly crash. This is going to be on brokaw road and zanker road. An investigation under way right now and not on a major freeway. We arent expecting a huge slow down but this will impact local traffic and not too far away a shooting investigation in san jose on westbound mckie road at capital avenue. That is going to be closed to traffic while that is happening. Our freeways, though, in the south bay are looking good. This is a live look showing you 101 in san jose. Very smooth ride there. And then a live picture bringing in the bay bridge toll plaza where things are beginning to slow down. Im going to see if the metering rights are on. It doesnt look like, but you can tell its definitely beginning to slow and as i check, no metering lights. Lets send it over to jobina, h everybody. How your weather is going to unfold. If you didnt put anything on your windshield and you had frost yesterday morning and likely have frost again this morning, have to get the scraper out. A lot of times like putting a sheet, a blanket and even cardboard and the frost will storm on it instead of your windshield. That is one of our issues. Going to be chilly this morning, but at least not wind chilly and milder this afternoon. So, lets jump ahead to the change in the forecast for thursday night, friday into saturday morning. The bulk of the light to moderate rain will fall friday as we have two weak cold fronts come through here. And the rain will taper as we head to the south but it could fall at times that make the commute slick. Lets time it out for you. Heres 4 00 p. M. Thursday. It looks pretty quiet right now. But as we head into the evening hours, you can see the rain moving into the north bay and the heart of the bay and then lingering during the Morning Hours saturday. Theres your first chance of slick spots and then as we head into the evening commute, a chance of light rain to moderate rain across the north bay. During the overnight hours saturday, it moves into the south bay and then its out of here by saturday afternoon. Rainfall amounts are not going to be very impressive from a third in the north bay to just a couple hundredths in the south bay. But it does mean storm door is possibly open. Well switch gears here and this morning we have simple life hacks for you, including a fast way to make ice cubes and an easy way to get those accidental egg shells out of a bowl. You know when that happens. Heres your daily clip sponsored by tiktok. If you need to freeze ice cubes in a pinch use hot water instead of cold water, it actually freezes quicker.
