Reporter do you have an issue or problem with Sexual Harassment in the workplace . I do not personally. But i know it exists in our society and globally. Obviously its been in the news.

Reporter omalley has joined other d. A. S from across the state, urging the department of justice to reconsider their position. Alameda county public defender brendan wood says courthouses need to be offlimits to i. C. E. Agents. There is a place that should be safe, a place for victims, witnesses, and defendants can come to court to litigate without having i. C. E. Or Civil Enforcement come in and arrest them. Reporter i. C. E. Says only specific immigrants such as gang members or those with criminal convictions will be targeted and the arrests will take place as discreetly as possible. Omalley says dont expect court staff to assist in any way. We are not your agents. We are not enforcing your orders. Reporter Community Activists fear the threat of courthouse arrests will stop undocumented immigrants who are victims or witnesses of crime from coming to courthouses altogether.

Im keeping my fingers crossed that well have more water. Reporter so is the Santa Clara ValleyWater District. In a bold 800 million proposal, the district wants to expand one of the areas smallest, most obscure reservoirs, from 6,000 feet capacity to about 140,000. It would be the largest project our Water District will have ever tried to do. Reporter tomorrow the state Water Commission will be evaluating the pacheco reservoir proposal to decide if the benefits outweigh the costs. This kind of reservoir would really help us out in multiple dry years. Reporter which youre expecting . Absolutely. Reporter some people worry about a big project. I hope that theyre thinking about preserving the area as well as turning it into another big water tank. It would have water supply benefits. It would have environmental benefits, both to the creek below, for fish habitat, as well as provide water for refuges in the central valley. Reporter now, the Water District says frankly it expects the state to be skeptical of an 800 million price tag. But Officials Say theyre confident and point out they will get a Second Chance later to respond directly to any specific criticism. Live in morgan hill, robert handa, nbc bay area news.

Now, not only do we not have any rainfall today, it was record setting heat. It wasnt uncomfortable, it wasnt dangerous, but it was way above where we should be for this time of the year. San jose, 74 degrees. Mostly sunny skies. The old record was 72 set back in 1982. How much warmer do we go for tomorrow . Its going to be a degree or two change.

One thing to watch is her jade necklace. Chan says it was a gift from her grandmother that she began wearing regularly at the age of 9 while recovering from a foot injury. When she was younger, her mother had given her a jade necklace. It kept her safe and secure and protected. So its kind of doing the same for me. So i never take it off. When im skating, even like before competition, ill just kind of touch it. Ill do it without knowing so, but i guess it just makes me feel comfortable. Very special for her. Chen also said that jade necklace isnt her only superstition. Watch carefully, she always laces her left skate first, then the right, jumped around a bit, and reties the right skate before taking the ice. All sorts of superstitions. We wish her well in south korea. For more stories up and personal with our Northern California olympians, tune in to our Olympic Special in prime time.

We should have pool parties. Its going to be really nice throughout the bay area. Any kind of Super Bowl Party you have, youre in the clear to have those outside. Give it a nice little extra flair this year. Lets go ahead and get a look at why it is so unusually warm here to start off february. We have High Pressure sitting right here offshore, acting as a big shield. All that dry air is sending any kind of rainfall to the north. Were seeing warmer air move in from the south. We can show you this top down view. Again, most of that wet weather is well up towards alaska, canada. No hope of rainfall over the next seven days. That means tomorrow is dry, cloud cover to start. Nothing in tells me of a big deal. I think youll need the sunglasses as you start off that commute. 47 in the trivalley. A cold 48 for the north bay. San francisco looking pretty great on your friday morning at 52. We see a lot of warming through the day for tomorrow, in the south bay, every single city will be in the 70s. In fact i pushed up temperatures a degree or two. This now puts us in downtown san jose at 75 degrees. Morgan hill, 75. Gilroy, 74. Los gatos also at 76 degrees. A little bit of a wind tomorrow coming out of the north and slightly out of the east for the east bay. Its going to be a drying wind, a slight offshore wind as well. Thats going to bump these temperatures up and keep them in the mid70s from concord to danville. Low 70s from oakland towards hayward. Approaching the 70degree mark at half moon bay. Redwood city, 75. What about San Francisco . Looks like well tip over the mark here in the mission to 71. Slightly cooler in the marina at 68. 76 in napa, 74 in sonoma. And 76 here in santa rosa. Extended forecast keeps dry weather through the next seven days. At the beaches were looking at milder weather. Warmest beach spot in doubt, and probably one of the busiest, santa cruz, mid70s into next thursdays forecast. On the extended, we stay dry in San Francisco as well. Warmest right through sunday, then back to some 60s into next week. For inland valleys, were also tracking with mid70s all the way into next thursday. Eventually, some rainfall in midfebruary. Our long range outlook, we already talked about the next seven days and how dry it will be for us. Next rain, as we also mentioned, the 13th to the 16th. For the next three months, the things were paying attention to is la nina looks to be fading. That could bring us an equal chance for above or below average rain. If we have below average rain coming our way, we may actually see the drought creep back in. Theres still some hope, the midand end of february, also into march, we could get close to an average season when all is said and done. Well pay for it, all the sunshine, in about a month from now, well get hammered. Thanks, jeff. Imagine teaching yourself how to be an olympic athlete.
