See some spots that are really gusty, windy. Other spots are going to be in the 60s. Other spots are going to be in the 70s. Thats really the epitome of living in a microclimate area, right . I think you need to copyright that or something. Look at the south bay camera, though. I know its blown out right now but it is clear and beautiful out there. 50 degrees right now in the south bay peninsula. 49. Tri valley, 44. And also in San Francisco, beautiful, clear skies. But in San Francisco, 52 degrees, it is a little bit chilly in the north bay at 42 degrees. Now, overall, our temperature trend will once again start climbing into those upper 60s and 70s. But the good news, though, some spots are definitely going to feel a lot cooler than what we have seen all week. So weve got a slight cooling trend as we head into the weekend. But not by much. Another thing youre going to notice is in the hillside areas, especially, above 1,000 feet and at the 1,000 feet level, its going to be very gusty, between 20 to 40 Miles Per Hour. Of a quick look at your daytime highs, weve got a nice array of 60s and 70s. And, yeah, were even tracking the conditions in pyeongchang. Of course, our own Garvin Thomas is out there and he has been posting photos where he looks very cold but very happy. Yeah. Which is fair enough. Right now there, it is 12 degrees. Nothing compared to our 70s here. So definitely perfect weather for the Winter Olympics. Theyre expecting a high of, get this, kira, 20 degrees. Oh, boy. Yeah, and the wind chill, negative 11. So 20 degrees, but feels like negative 11. Exactly. Well, at least he has that snazzy nbc olympics coat. Im jealous. Its a nice coat. I know. I want one too. Maybe we can buy one or something. Well check in with you in a bit. Thanks. As we were just talking about, the 2018 Winter Olympics are officially under way. A live look at the olympic flame. Today is the first full day of competition, including a few of our local athletes. Speed skater jr sell ski will compete on the short track. Joan joanne reid will compete in the biathlon. The first gold medal has been won. Unfortunately, not by team usa but sweden. Charlotte kala won the event. Diggins narrowly missed out but had a strong showing with a fifthplace finish. Diggins was trying to become the first u. S. Woman to win an olympic medal in crosscountry skiing. I think today was a good race for me. It wasnt my best race, by far. I was having my triceps were cramping out there and having a few technique issues. But i think, yeah, it was a good race. My skis were amazing. Artek worked so hard. Mentally, i pushed as hard as i could. My body wasnt quite cooperating in a few areas so i know what im going to tweak for the next races so i know im in good shape. I know things are moving well and im really excited where these games are headed. How nice of her to share the credit. So, okay, although she didnt win the medal, Jessie Diggins did make history. Her fifthplace finish is the best ever olympic finish in a skiathlon for a u. S. Woman. Congratulations. Our own Garvin Thomas is in pyeongchang. Beyond appearing in our newscast, hes also bringing us a behind the scenes look, front and center with the olympians, like bobsledder Nick Cunningham there, who was born in los gatos.

Now to last nights highly anticipated Opening Ceremony. Team usa has the largest delegation of any team in the history of the Winter Olympics with 242 athletes. If you were closely watching the teams grand entrance last night, you may have noticed one athlete was missing. Speed skater shani davis didnt go following controversy. Luger erin hamlin and he tied 44 in voting by their fellow team usa athletes in voting who should carry the flag last night. To break the tie, the team held a coin toss and hamlin won.

And this warm weather just keeps coming. Nice little cooldown for the weekend. So but its still going to be warm. So, you know, kind of a give and take. But ive got some exciting news, guys. First, lets get you a shot of this gorgeous sunrise, walnut creek looking absolutely beautiful. You know what we have in our parking lot. It is up and running, scanning our very own stormranger. And were very excited for it to be a part of our weather team. So what exactly is stormranger . Well, it is a mobile radar. It is currently tracking i know were not tracking any rain, but i do want to let you guys know, the rain comes, well be ready. It scans horizontally, giving more storm data, the only in the bay area and we have it. Its an exclusive only nbc. And our sister station, telemundo 48 has also accessibility to this tool. I do occasionally fill in for them so i will be using it on the telemundo site. For now, even though were not scanning rain, were tracking plenty of sunshine. 49 degrees for the peninsula. 44 for the tri valley and the south bay right now at about 50 degrees. San francisco waking up to clear skies. Its 52 degrees, east bay 47. North bay, 42. And overall todays microclimate highs are actually going to be cooler than what we have seen. But still warm in some spots. So its kind of a give and take. The biggest takeaway this weekend is going to be the increase in those wind speeds. Oakland, a high of 67. San jose, a high of 71. San francisco, 66. And santa rosa, 70. You may recall, this week long, all week long, we have hit nearrecord temps, made new daytime records and this weekend were going to catch a break. I want to talk about these winds. If we take a look at the hourbyhour wind gusts, if you notice, were going to start picking up in terms of the breezy and windy conditions. Right at about 6 30 p. M. , especially in the Higher Elevation areas, above 1,000 feet or at 1,000 feet, were talking about 20, possibly 40 mile an hour gusts. Napa is going to get pretty windy. 29 Miles Per Hour. Santa rosa, 22. Orinda, 22. San jose, not as windy, but definitely on the breezy side. And then if we fast forward this time line through sunday, you notice the winds significantly calm down. But as far as that longrange outlook in terms of the rain, we do have this upper level low. That is going to miss us. Weve got the shifting winds facing the strong ridge of High Pressure. And off to the south as we head into monday and tuesday, that upper level low is going to bring a chance of rain for areas just south, as far south as monterey. Into tuesday. And then for wednesday, looks like the upper level low might bring rain to the valley. As far as San Francisco and other areas, not expecting much rain. Well keep the breezy conditions through tomorrow and, of course, pleasant 60s in the forecast. Kira . Vianey, looks good. Thanks. It is just shy of 7 21. Still ahead on today in the bay, she is somewhat new to the sport, but shes going for gold in south korea. Well tell you about the unlikely chain of events that inspired this bay area woman to try biathlon. Welcome back. Our olympic coverage will continue. First we want to tell you about other news. Hours after leaving the bay area yesterday, canadian Prime Minister justin trudeau, his motorcade was involved in a crash in southern california. The Prime Minister was leaving an event in simi valley when a car turned in front of his motorcade. The chp officer and the driver of the car were taken to the hospital with injuries. Theyre both expected to be okay. Mr. Trudeaus vehicle was not involved. Earlier in the day, the popular Prime Minister was here in the bay area. He met with governor jerry brown, focusing on climate change. And also discussed things with Lieutenant Governor gavin newsom. Take a look at this video of a traffic mess last night in Solano County during the height of the friday evening commute. Sky ranger was over interstate 80 after an excavator truck hit an overpass, creating a 15foot crack. It happened at the manwell campos overpass on the eastbound lanes of 80. No one was hurt, but traffic was backed up for miles, as you can see there. And for about an hour and a half. Now to an out of control problem in the bay area. Sideshows and the ongoing issue of how to stop them. Law enforcement is putting together a task force now to try to do something about them. Bay area Law Enforcement tell us they have been working on a plan for weeks. It was tested last week in oakland when you may recall more than 100 cars were towed at foot hill and high street. Right now Law Enforcement is trying to finetune their plan. Instead of one agency or a couple of agencies trying to deal with this, were going to join forces and work together. Oakland will be the lead agency. Fremont police will take the lead in the south, and that also will include santa clara county. All right. Back to the olympics. We have a live look for you at the olympic flame in pyeongchang. Today is officially day one of the 2018 Winter Olympics. Last night team usa was front and center on the world stage at the Opening Ceremony. It was an incredible moment for our athletes. Among team usa marching last night, a bay area biathlete whose Olympic Dreams are thanks to her grandfather. Here is garvin tom thomhomas wi story. Cold. Im going to go with cold. Reporter joanne reid you quickly learn after meeting her, has a great sense of humor. But like any athlete at her level, when the competition starts, she is all business. Reid, though, has a back story like few others in this sport. A crosscountry skier in college, reid had decided to give up elite sports. But then her grandfather was diagnosed with alzheimers, and as a precaution, weapons were removed from his home. Including a biathlon rifle. It ended up in reids hands, and so she thought she would give biathlon a try. Two years and two months ago was my first. Yeah. Reporter and here you are. And here i am. Reporter here she is. Competing with a rifle inscribed with the lakota word for grandfather, competing in his honor. Yeah. I had always wanted to do this for him. Im not sure how much he understands right now.

From south korea to San Francisco. A lot of emotion and excitement here as the american athletes walked in the parade of nations last night. Because who would understand all of that special energy and feeling more than former olympians . Today in the bay was at pier 39 where a room full of olympians watched the Opening Ceremony. Reporter there was a round of cheers for team usa as they entered the stadium in pyeongchang. When they walk in, it just sent chills up my spine. Memories come tumbling down. Reporter its been a few years since beverly brockway took part in an olympic Opening Ceremony. She was an alpine skier when the games were in squaw valley. Susie jones roy was a swimmer in the summer olympics. She says watching the Winter Olympics is still moving. It takes me back to 1968, when i was in the olympics in mexico city and how i felt in the opening ceremonies. The excitement, the wonder. Each athlete wore their uniforms from the years they competed. Youll notice a few didnt wear red, white and blue. As the athletes in pyeongchang parade into the olympic stadium, they are becoming part of this exclusive group. And its a lifetime membership. We have a seeing here in the group.

Team usa has the largest delegation of any team in the history of the Winter Olympics of 242 athletes. If you are closely watching, though, team usas grand entrance last night didnt include one athlete. U. S. Speed skater, shani davis, didnt go following controversy. The twotime Gold Medalist speed skater who had called the flag bearer Selection Process dishonorable after a coin toss gave the honor to Luger Erin Hamlin and not to him, decided to skip the event all together. Davis then called out on twitter by fellow team usa member and returning Gold Medalist, david weise. David weise, by the way, is a Northern California freestyle skier. He tweeted out, quote, a true champion would walk by their teammate proudly. Seems to me, the dishonorable coin made the right choice. As far as 2022 is concerned, you wont receive my vote. In lighter news, a look back at the flame in pyeongchang. Nbc bay area, weiby the way, is your exclusive home for the olympics. We hope you stay tuned for the next two weeks.

And hes going to take things slowly with the rest of the money. He might some day even buy a home here. Not yet. Its been a crazy 24, 48 hours here. So trying to enjoy it this weekend. Got the family out here. So were trying to, you know, lay low a little bit, get a nice dinner. With that money, he actually might be able to afford a home here. There is much more ahead on today in the bay. Coming up a bay area attorney accused of ripping off an elderly woman. The bizarre scam hes accused. He can definitely take us all out. 42 degrees, beautiful clear skies. But how long is this ridge of High Pressure going to hold on tight to the bay area . Well have that answer after the break. Stay with us. Its 7 42 on this lovely saturday morning. If youve got one cup of coffee down, reach for another one. Its going to be a nice time out there. San francisco, nice and clear. Beautiful, clear skies. And, yes, we have our stormranger in the house. Literally in the parking lot right now. And it is scanning. Its right here, scanning. And although were not tracking any rain right now, were pretty excited to have it. Its going to be up and ready to go when we do finally start seeing rain around the area. So what exactly is stormranger . Its our dual really good doppler radar. Were talking a lot better than the radars we have right now. It picks up horizontally and vertically, giving a 2d view of the rain and we are the only in the bay area to have it. Of course, we will also be sharing this with our station for telemundo. We are excited. It is ready to go and fired up. Right now the peninsula is at 49 degrees. The south bay is a mild 50 degrees and the tri valley, 44 degrees. San francisco, 52. Now, as you may know, weve broken a lot of daytime records earlier this week, and weve inched near some new ones. But for today, were going to see some cooling in some spots, which will be a nice break from all of that heat, especially because were still in the winter. San francisco expecting a high of 66. Santa rosa, 70 degrees. Oakland, a high of 67. San jose, a high of 71. So no upper 70s for today. But the biggest impact youre going to notice is going to be a pickup in the winds. So your hourbyhour wind forecast, weve got a shifting wind pattern. What thats doing is, well, its kicking up the winds, especially in elevations above 1,000 feet. Napa, 29 Miles Per Hour. Orinda, 22. Santa rosa, 22. So if you live in any of these areas or you know you live in the Higher Elevation areas, make sure to tie down any patio furniture. Dont get thrown off guard. As we head into tomorrow, by about 11 30 a. M. , look how significantly calm those winds become. So we go from about 20, 30, 40 Miles Per Hour in some spots to pretty much nothing. So its going to be still a little bit breezy, though, for tomorrow. But your longrange outlook, if i take you through tuesday, weve got this upper level low, and yes, thats some moisture just off to the south. Now, unfortunately, the bay area is not really going to get much of that rain. Los angeles does have a good chance of seeing the rain, but for now that strong ridge of High Pressure is going to keep us dry and its going to keep us a little bit cooler, but at least not a lot of heat as we head in towards monday. 61 degrees for San Francisco. Showers just off to the south on tuesday. And then on wednesday, Central Valley has a chance of rain, thanks to that same upper level low. But for now, well, were going to keep the sunshine all weekend long. Kira . You know what, we will take it. Thanks, vianey. Looks good. Still ahead on today in the bay, he was hired to protect a clients savings before she died. But the state says he lined his own pockets. We investigate californias commitment to protect you from fraud. Bizarre scheme involving t accont welcome back. A lawyer accused of a bizarre scheme involving a trust account, credit cards and a dead woman. Weve told you about this attorney before. Our Investigative Reporter is back on the case and explains why the state is now taking action. Reporter attorney Drexel Bradshaw is in a legal battle of his own that could leave him banned from practicing law in california. The state bar, which investigates attorney misconduct is accusing bradshaw of engaging in a scheme to defraud one of his elderly clients out of more than 157,000. Are you worried about potentially facing criminal charges . No. Not at all. I havent done anything wrong. Reporter so is the state bar just making all of this up . I cant speak to their understanding of the law. Theyve made an allegation. Its false. My clients money was used by and large for 24hour home care. Reporter this quiet San Francisco neighborhood is where his client lived for more than four decades. She hired bradshaw to help create a trust account. And in an unusual move, she listed the attorney as one of the possible people to manage her money and home, should anything happen to her. When she fell and injured herself four years ago, a court put her attorney, Drexel Bradshaw, in charge of her estate. Hes now being accused of funneling money from that trust into a company he helped create. Bay construction. Bradshaw hired bay to do work on the elderly womans home while she was suffering from dementia. Youre an experienced attorney. That doesnt seem like a conflict of interest to you . No. I dont. All that work was done just to maintain the safety of the home. Reporter bradshaw says hes never had any financial interest in Bay Construction. You dont have a Construction Company thats in your name . No. Certainly not. Im a lawyer. Reporter bradshaw signed documents filed with the state to form Bay Construction. But he says he was simply acting as an attorney for the person who actually owns Bay Construction. Handyman named Juan Gonzalez who had previously done repair work at bradshaws own home. I agreed to loan him 1,000 and to help him get his contractors license. Reporter bradshaw let his former handyman register that Construction Company to the same highrise address as bradshaws law firm. I offered office space and allowed my receptionist to answer a phone for Bay Construction. And the contractor would have meetings here. My conference room. If it was not being used. And his mail showed up here. And that was it. Bay construction is and has always been a 100 by Juan Gonzalez. Reporter but in court, gonzalez testified that he owned 49 of the company, while bradshaw owned the other 51 . Bradshaws own son colin also worked for the business. And Court Documents show bradshaw, his wife, son and receptionist all had Company Credit cards in their names for Bay Construction. Bradshaw says the arrangement helped the Construction Company get a 5 discount at lowes hardware. So he says it was a favor to help his former handy man succeed in his business. Does any of that make sense to you . No, it doesnt. Reporter jeremiah rackster is an attorney. At 90 years old, the woman passed away last june so her relative stands to inherit money from that trust. Money bradshaw is accused of using to pay for his own personal expenses. Its unusual to have a credit card in the name of a Construction Company that you have no interest in. It just doesnt appear correct. Something theres something missing. Reporter his client is now suing to have bradshaw stripped of all responsibility involving the trust. The judge in that case is yet to weigh in on whether there was any wrongdoing. But just last month, he did remove bradshaw as the trustee, at least for now, while the state bar pursues their own separate investigation into bradshaw and possible fraud. Normally the state bar is an entity out there but doesnt get involved. The fact they filed charges against an attorney i think is telling. Reporter the state bar also went after bradshaw about ten years ago, accusing him of fraud and alleging he charged grossly exaggerated fees. But how that case ended is unclear, since it was settled behind closed doors. Bradshaw was allowed to keep practicing with no Public Record of discipline. But now the state bar has issued a consumer alert for bradshaw, warning hes accused of a major misappropriation of client funds. Bradshaw says hes never collected any money from that trust. Most people dont see it, but i have a heart of gold. And ive done my very best to take care of ora. She was special to us. We were the only ones at her funeral. My wife, my children. Her friends and relatives tell us they were never notified about a funeral. They say if bradshaw planned one, he didnt tell them about it. We asked bradshaw for details about where the funeral was held, and where gozi is now buried. Bradshaw wouldnt say. But we obtained her death certificate, which shows shes buried at a cemetery in lafayette. The staff tells us no one ever purchased a tombstone for her. So bradshaws former client now rests here in an unmarked grave. The state bars case against bradshaw is expected to wrapup next week. And since this isnt a criminal trial, the worst discipline he faces is losing his license to practice law. But weve learned bradshaw, his former handyman and Bay Construction may now all be the subject of a criminal investigation by the contractor state license board. That agency would neither confirm nor deny its involvement. We have much more ahead on today in the bay. Coming up, our clear the shelter segment featuring our friends from pets in need.
