One woman was ejected. Shes the one who died. Theres another woman who is in critical condition, and police say they found alcohol inside the vehicle. Just one reason the chp is implementing what they call maximum enforcement period that started last night and runs through sunday night.

I think pete will start peeling potatoes there. Put him to work if he stays too long. And shopping. If its not your thing. Certain parks opened for black friday for free. One of my favorite traditions. East bay regional pashgt district does it every year to encourage people to spend time outside in nature calling it green friday. Parking and entrance fees waived. So are fees for dogs, horses, boat launching and fishing. Sounds like much better than going out to the mall for sure. Beautiful weather for viany. I agree. Sounds like a much better plan than heading to the store and getting trampled on. No fun for me. And weather great for the hikes, especially free. Maybe ill take binks on a nice hike. 56 degrees. Nice and mild. A few clouds. Theyre high clouds. Cant see them just yet. Sunrise at 6 59. Trivalley 53 degrees, and in San Francisco, also nice and mild at ak bout 57 degrees. North bay, can you see clouds in there. 50 degrees, an incoming system that kicks up the chance of seeing showers here and there but temperature trend on this thanksgiving day looks absolutely beautiful and perfect. In the 70s. Talking 70 degrees by about 1 00 in palo alto, but we have changes on the way. Ill tell you how that may effect your weekend plans coming flup a bit. Coming up next on today in the bay, protecting kids on the internet. The steps youtube is taking to make sure kids arent xpoearen inappropriate content. Youre watching today in the bay. Good morning. 6 14. Were about 45 minutes away from sunrise. If youre up and stretching, getting ready for that turkey trot, a quick check what you can expect. By 8 00, 9 00 a. M. , upper 50s. Around 10 00 a. M. , 60s in the forecast but overall, mostly clear skies. A perfect weather for all of the runners out there getting ready for that nice run. Send things to you, but an update on the rain in a bit. All right. Waiting for that. Thank you, vianey. All new this morning, youtube is making guidelines for kids programming tougher. The site faced criticism from people who say violent and exploitive videos aimed at older audiences are included with the Family Friendly options. Youtube says it recently kicked off 50 channels and removed thousands of videos. Youtube outlined changes in a blog post and the include stricter enforcement of the rules, violent ads from videos will be gone. Blocking inappropriate comments, and providing better guidance for the folks who are making the videos. The north bay fires may be out but concern remains. Can this happen again . Critics say that cal fire, the states latest Fire Department is great at putting fires out but not very good at preventing them. Liz wagner has the story. Reporter our investigation uncovered a tang manied web of fighter prevention experts say fall short of whats needed to make a difference. Extreme weather rotting trees and longer fir ticking on the n disaster. Youre looking at the forest in the central sierra. A stunning landscape from the air but a powder keg down below. Fire wants to burn uphill. Reporter this doctor of ucberkeley and his team are learning how to save the wildlands. On the ground. Reporter by setting fire to them. The goal ultimately is not to eliminate fire from the landscapes. Theyre fireadapted and been that way for thousands of years. Reporter california fire used to burn all the time before scientists started doing research, this hadnt burned in a century. Were looking at Fire Prevention . It is. Reporter dr. Scott steeves runs ucberkeleys science lab studying ways to make forests more fireresistant and slow the spread when wildfires do happen. Reporter this is the third time in 15 years the team set fire to this exact plot of land. They say burns like this need to happen more often in more places. To do this and really make a difference in the landscape we would have to do this at much bigger areas. Thats the thing that worries us. Were not doing it. Not even close. Reporter why . We dont have a lot of experience doing this in california. We have to train a workforce. Reporter stephen says building the workforce is a challenge. Right now fire prevent is divvied up among a variety of agencies. Most of time workers from nonprofits fill in the gaps. We cleared this area down here. Which was really thick with all the dead vegetation. Reporter they built a twomile fuel break near homes in the santa cruz mountains. That vegetation grows up and up and up. Reporter they point out the area faces the same dangers as the Sonoma County communities that burned to the ground last month. Cal fire is responsible for protecting that neighborhood in santa clara county. The agency oversees about a third of the land in the state. Thats why forest Economics Expert bill stewart says calfire should take the lead on an aggressive prevent program but says its not equipped to do it. Basically its a Fire Department. Reporter stewart says the agency made some progress, but lacks the scientists and staffers needed to coordinate a staidwide effort. Thats not really what they were designed to do yet are dragged into it. Were working to change the paradigm to put more time and energy into preventing fires. Reporter this man served as one of calfires deputy directors says they focused on beefing up inspections, brush clearance and prescribed burns but critics say its not enough. Their perspective, calfire should be setting the tone from the top. We need to start work on these big forest projects, and thats what it trickled down. The last couple of years, set high goals for firefighters to do more in fire pooecrevention. Reporter the director says the agency fell short on some of those goals. Meeting 70 of the prescribed fire targets. Should calfire advocate to the governor for more resources . More funds to do the really important work that your agency acknowledged needs to happen . Both this administration as well as the legislature invested more money into doing Fire Prevention work. Reporter calfire recently received a 200 million windfall from sacramento. Aside from this onetime boost, the agency spent 75 million on Fire Prevention each year, but thats just 4 of the total budget. Meanwhile, scientists working in the forest hope their new techniques for mitigating mega fires become a priority. Its really something that gets a little more traction every year, but it doesnt feel like it ever gets out of the gate. Reporter calfire recently signed an agreement with several agencies to increase the pace and scale of controlled burns, and also grants money to local fire democrats and fire safe councils. Sources agree, its going to take an extra push from lawmakers for calfire to make Fire Prevention a real priority. If you have a story for you are investigative unit, theyd love to hear from you. Phone number, 888996tips. Be website, nbcbayarea. Com weinvestigate. Supposed to be in the 90s for thanksgiving day. Yucky. Warmer than were supposed to be. A system is warming us up and another system bringing showers already toward ukiah and santa rosa. Yes. Very hot. Mild right now, though. South bay, 57. Peninsula 56. Trivalley 53 and you can see in the south bay camera. A couple of those clouds in the picture. San francisco at 57 degrees. North bay also seeing morning clouds at 50 degrees and 55 degrees right now for the east bay. Heres the reason why were tracking showers. Weve got the system and it looks like its getting kind of moderate towards ukiah. Notice off the coast, still got moisture that could potentially push through santa rosa and the north bay. Talk about that 24hour temperature change. The reason i want to pop this up, above seasonal temperatures and expected highs just that. San jose 5 degrees wormer than yesterday at this hour. So is livermore. Really the south bay area and kris was saying in Southern California, expecting 90s. Yes. Were not expecting 90s here, thank goodness. Warmest temperatures in the 70s and then once those spotty showers clear out for the majority of the north bay, you can expect to keep a few clouds in the system also along the coast. Napa a high of about 71. Oakland 67. San francisco 65 and over the next seven days, a couple of changes on the way. So for today, as soon as that chance of rain kind of clears out, topping out in the 60s for San Francisco. Notice by friday, keeping the clouds and the system and heading into saturday and sunday, this is where we have an additional system coming in to play, but our rain chances are more than likely going to be into saturday night and then as we head into sunday, expect to see rain really throughout the entire bay area all the way from sun up to sun down. So sunday is definitely expected to be the rainiest day of the week and expect breezy to windy conditions and more than likely, system carrying over into monday and possibly tuesday for the San Francisco area. Inland spots also expect conditions seeing north bay showers, heading into tomorrow. Right to start off your weekend, clk clg in cloud cover and saturday into sunday, a system bringing a better chance of rain for the entire bay area. Back to you. Thank you, vianey.

The National FireProtection Association released this video intended to show how dangerous it can be if you dont do it right. Safety groups strongly recommend against deep frying your turkey but if youre still going to do it, important things to remember. Make sure you use that turkey fryer outside and away from your home. Dont overfill the oil or leave the turkey unintended and make sure the turkey is fully dried before frying so that doesnt happen. And im surprised. Spring water. Only fried our once once as novelty, too scared to enjoy it. Beautiful, but wouldnt let the kids go outside to watch. Coming up next on today in the bay.

Happy thanksgiving, first time cooking a turkey and havent taken it out of the freezer, you wont be having turkey for thanksgiving. Right. Never cooked a turkey, ri im gy of that but i also bought my premade. Im also guilty of that. Enjoying a turkey today, today will probably be the last day enjoying a regular breakfast. Tomorrow youll have a lot of leftovers. Temperatures are mild now. If you wake up for an Early Morning run or today, as a matter of fact, for the turkey trot, perfect weather for that. A little bit of clouds in the system. Right now overall, looking very beautiful. However, if you are going to be out doing the turkey trot, good for you and we can expect to see those temperatures climb into the upper 50s. About 57. By 10 00 a. M. , 60s. By 11 00, talking 65 degrees. So overall, we can expect to keep mostly clear skies and not expecting rain for the south bay. Going to be perfect weather conditions out there. No one has to worry about getting muddy, just making it to the finish line. Good luck if youre heading out to the turkey trot this morning. Back to you. Vianey, thank you. And the glide Memorial Church getting ready for its annual thanksgiving meal to give folks a little help this Holiday Season. Showing all the preparation going on, good morning, pete trying to put you to work. Arent they . Reporter just a yes theyre going to put me to work soon. Good morning to you guys. Happy thanksgiving to you. You know what . Actually dirk over here is working 0en that ham. Very big ham, putting it to work there and these are a part of all the meals theyll serve to folks here. Thousands of meals served in this wonderful thanksgiving celebration glide church has been doing a long time here. Really, a tradition in San Francisco. Bringing karen hanrahan. Reporter we just met. President and ceo. Step this way. Talk about todays event. This annual thanksgiving celebration. What it means to the city of San Francisco and really the bay area . Sure. So this is this is a tradition in San Francisco. Its been going on for over 50 years. Serves over 5,000 meals today. We have over 500 volunteers. Glide has really become a home for people to take a moment to be grateful for what they have. To come together across the spectrum, from those who are suffering to those who are donors, we all come together on this day to provide community, to serve those in need. And to really build on that tradition in San Francisco. Reporter very familiar with tradition. Reverend Cecil Williams here, the good work hes done here at glide church. Talk about how much food theyre serving. Look over there. All that ham. Talking about what, 200 hams . 300 turkeys . 200 hams, 300 turkeys. Weve got thousands of pounds of potatoes. We have thousands hundreds of little pies made by the girl scouts. So all of this, about 50 of what we have is donated, and about 50 purchased. And, again, its been an outpouring of support and generosity from the city of San Francisco and were really grateful. Clearly. Reporter to wrap things up, obviously talking about today 5,000 meals served out but you do it yearround . Yearround. We serve over 750,000 meal as year. Its particularly important now, because people in San Francisco are increasingly struggling to feed themselves. We also provide access to homeless shelters. We provide counseling for addiction. We provide a spiritual home in our sunday celebrations and really services across the spectrum to help those in San Francisco who need it the most. Those who are the hardest off. And it is as i mentioned, really getting getting worse in San Francisco. The gap between rich and poor. Fewer people have homes. Fewer people are having access to food. So glad is needed more than ever. Reporter thank you so much. The new president and ceo of glide. Great work theyre doing here. Well start seeing folks come in at about 10 30 a. M. Already getting to work, cutting ham, getting it. Reporter for all the folks theyre expecting. Live in San Francisco, for today in the bay. Pete, thanks. Happening now, the Salvation Army also preparing to deliver meals to people who have a little trouble getting out of the house. Hundreds of volunteers there help deliver mealed around San Francisco, and theyll start doing that in a couple hours. You recognize that guy . Because its San Francisco mayor ed lee. There are some changes to Public Transit you need to know about for today. The San Francisco bay ferry wont run at all. A modified Holiday Schedule tomorrow and saturday. Then regular Weekend Service will resume for most routes on sunday. Caltrain, samtrans operating on a sunday schedule. 24 trains between San Francisco and san jose. More options tomorrow, of course, for black friday. All right. The jurors in the steinle murder case are also on thanksgiving break and did not reach a verdict in the case yesterday but did deliberate all morning before heading home around noon for the long weekend. They will return on monday at 9 00 in the morning. Accused of shooting and killing steinle in San Francisco in 2015. The defense says it was an accident, but the prosecution claims garcia sir wroughrausirr to shoot steinle. This happened in menlo park. The victim, homeless, shot several times on a nearby train track. He survived. Officers used a drone and chp airplane in the search for the bad guy. No arrests, though. Word on what may have led up to this. The search continues this morning for a missing santa cruz tech worker. 34yearold, last seen leaving the headquarters of looker, a Software Company in santa cruz. Rode away on a red by tuesdike. Hasnt been seen since. If you have information, call the police. And warning in San Francisco. A phone scam targeting that group pap robocall, claims to be from the Chinese Embassy saying a packa acage being held for pi but you need a credit card number to pick it up. This is a scam. Call police if youve been notified. And cigarette ads banned from tv and radio, a big deal when it stopped at the time. This weekend, theyre back sort of. Cigarette Companies Intentionally design cigarettes with enough nicotine to create and sustain addiction. The ads arent for tobacco. They are antitobacco. A court order is forcing those tobacco giants to air these commercials about the health risks of smoking. The commercials are a result of a 1999 lawsuit which big tobacco lost. The judge ruled the companies were guilty of fraud, because they downplayed the known health risks. A warning this holiday for shoppers planning to visit one of the largest malls in the bay area. Police say thieves are targeting cars in parking lots and neighborhoods around Valley Fair Mall in san jose. Heard it before. Still happening down. Also warning folks about parking safely around santana row. Nbc bay area spoke with one woman who says someone stole her vintage Louis Vuitton bag from her car this week. She says the thieves broke the back window of her car. I was just isnt shock. There maybe an hour and a half. Looked it, had to, broke it really quick and left. Nothing else was missing. She tells us there were about five other cars also broken into at around the same time as hers. We researched crime data overnight and found a total of 21 similar incidents of car breakin in that area in the past two weeks. 6 38. All construction in San Franciscos union square has shoppers says bahhumbug. Muni building its ten tral subway under the busy popular shopping square. The last five years this stretch has been open to pedestrians. They laid down turf. Benches to sit on. This year there will be less space for that, because the construction has grown, and its taking up more space. Shoppers we spoke to werent terribly happy about that. No. Yeah, and a lot of displaced people dont have nice places to sit. And we lost the kids a couple of times behind the construction platforms. I guess if you dont know your way around San Francisco it could be very difficult, because there is a lot of construction in the middle. The pedestrian area usually opens the friday after thanksgiving. Though this year it will open saturday, and then it will remain open through december 31st. And the weather is not going to keep you from going out on black friday. Or green friday. Going to the park. Weather shouldnt be a problem today or tomorrow but its the weekend it might be a problem. So now you may want to Pay Attention to the forecast. Here it is. Saturdays forecast overall along the coast and bay, start with mostly cloudy skies and stay fairly cloudy, but as we head into the later portion of the night, inland areas especially the north bay as well, expect to see a system move in and thats going to bring a series of showers. So youve got to get ready for it, because today the north bay is already seeing showers. Then the remainder of the bay area is expected to see widespread rain. On sundays forecast, you can see the coast, bay and inland all expecting to see rain. Another thing you can expect to see sunday as well is breezy to windy conditions. Something to keep in mind. If you had plans to be outside at all, or maybe parties planned this weekend, you may want to bring it indoors. As of right now, modelling showing a pretty good amount of rainfall, and sticking, unfortunately all sunday long all through monday and possibly even tuesday. If youre heading to the beach, your best bet is friday and saturday. As we head into saturday, though, start noticing temperatures really drop. We go from 70s to 60s. Theres goes sunday. Brings on the rain. Drop down to about 61 degrees. Youre going to notice a temperature drop about 10 degrees between now and the weekend. As that cold front moves in, also expect to see changes in the forecast. Heading to lake tahoe. A lot of people are waking up in lake tahoe or heading to lake tahoe. Pay attention. Tracking snow with the system. So on saturday, as we head into the later portion of the evening, talking about rain, but on sunday, tracking more snowfall ahead, great for skiers and snowboarders. You always want to check road conditions. Enjoy today before that rain really moves in this weekend. Back to you. Vianey, thank you. Coming up next on today in the bay, the holiday heat wave, breaking temperatures expected in particularly Southern California. Holy cow yuck. Plus, thousands of people are getting ready to take to the streets for one of the bay areas biggest turkey trots. We are live in san jose with the preparations underway this morning.

Forecasters predict temperatures could be up to 25 degrees above normal today. People have been packing the beaches to get relief from the heat. The average temperature is usually about 71 degrees this time of year. Lovely. But the temperatures already soaring well into the 90s. That was yesterday. Expected to continue today. Crazy. Now to a bay area family that has a lot to be thankful for today. Detained six months by i. C. E. , a san rafael man is back at home in time for thanksgiving. A construction worker working at Travis Air Force base when he and another worker were taken into custody. He has been in the country more than a decade. His coworker was deported back in august, bought judge ordered him released on bond while his case makes its way through the immigration court. He says hes grateful for this small victory. I have no words to describe my feelings right now. Happy is the first thing, the only word i have right now, and i have to say thank you to everybody who supports me. He and his wife have three children. Two oldest children granted daca status and his youngest is a u. S. Citizen. Happening today, thousands of people getting ready for the Silicon Valley turkey trot in san jose. Today in the bay, live along the race to show us exactly where runners will be during the race, and what good theyre doing at the same time. Reporter yeah. Good morning to you, kris and scott.

We just spoke with Carl Guardino guardino, only 1,900 people were running at the time when he started. When i stand on that stage and as far as the eye can see, 20,000 to 25,000 of our neighbors Building Community together . When leslie and i created the race we had three goals in mind. We wanted to build community, help needy families, and start our holidays in a fun and healthy way. And we truly believe the Silicon Valley turkey trot accomplishes those three goals. Reporter take a look at your tv screen if you want to get an idea where the race will be in the downtown area. The course will be primarily downtown, but it will at one point cross the guadeloupe and go up and down the alameda. The main festival area as the arena green and gall louadeloup. San jose police already starting shutting down a lot of roads here. If you need to be in the downtown area this morning through noon, keep in mind, tru traffic will be a little nutty. 23,000 people returning. And you can register up to 10 00 a. M. Incident he, briefly, mike dosek i dont know if the name ring as bell. Ran a year ago and had a heart attack during the race. His life was saved and here a year later after he almost was killed out here. Fascinating. Reporting live in downtown san jose, for today in the bay. Happy thanksgiving. To you as well, bob and the light rail driver as well. President trump wishing everyone a happy thanksgiving and promising to build a wall along the u. S. mexican border, your country is starting to do really well. Jobs coming back, highest ever. Military getting really strong. And then we will build the wall. Meantime, turns out more than onethird of americans are dreading the idea of talking about politics over the holiday weekend. Just dont do that. Yeah.
