As for President Trump, he is still in california and headed to the border in a few hours. Today in the bays tracie potts is following that story for us liver from capitol hill for us this morning. Tracie . Hi, good morning. This is going to be a big deal because the president has made this border wall a hallmark of his 2020 campaign, we are told hell get a briefing and spend about an hour midafternoon in otay mesa to promote the idea of building hundreds of miles of border wall including in california. This is a big part of what the president is trying to push as he also tries to win election next year, take a look, he had a fundraiser last night in the bay area. Hes got two more coming up today. He also had one in beverly hills. Hes got one coming up in san diego, and in los angeles today, to try to not only raise money, but raise support for this 2020 election.

You likely know if you live in the bay area, even if youre not a niners fan, even if you dont live in santa clara there has been a huge rift between the Stadium Authority, which is essentially the Santa Clara City Council and the 49ers. There have been curfew complaints and big acts like ed sheeran and the Rolling Stones saying its not worth it to play levis because of all the rules here. The Stadium Authority ended the amsanagement deal over living wages for employees and booking nonnfl events that lose money. The 49ers accuse the city manager of retaliation saying in part her proposal is purely retaliatory, and will result in increased costs, lost events and further erode the Publics Trust in her abilities. She is abdicating herify dush area duty by destroying a city asset for petty, political vendettas. Sports fans feel theyre stuck in the middle. They can do great things for each other when both parties are willing to work together. Reporter well be at the Stadium Authoritys press conference scheduled for 11 00 this morning but we dont expect that will be the last ruling on the field, so to speak. We expect this whole thing is will likely end up in court. Kris sanchez, today in the bay. Wherever it does well continue to follow, thanks, kris. Its its 5 05.

Its rolling through fairly quickly. Were seeing it moving through parts of the north bay right now, and its very spotty. This wont have a huge impact on your day. Youre seeing some more clouds moving in to San Francisco, our usual start to the day, but a little unusual to see another round of rain moving in. So our models take it hour by hour. This is 8 00 and what the radar could look like. You could track it as well if you have the nbc bay area app, and you can even get an alert as the rain approaches your location.

All week long nbc news along with nbc bay area are bringing to light the impacts of climate change. This morning a closer look at precipitation whiplash. Meteorologist kari hall delves into why california is seeing more extreme swings of rain and droughts in years to come. Its part of life in california to have long periods of time without rain and heavy deluges in winter, but now climate scientists are predicting that due to a warmer planet, california will experience precipitation whiplash, that means well have worsening droughts, which will alternate with extreme rainfall in the winters, and instead of having our rainy season lasting from october to april, that heavy rain will all fall in a shorter period of time, causing major flooding i spoke with climate scientist daniel swain who came up with the term precipitation whi whip lash. Were seeing more potential for drought and more potential for floods at the same period of time, so what we end up, what we may end up seeing from year to year is an increase in the propensity to go from very wet conditions to very dry conditions for vice versa. He adds we need to focus on water storage perhaps using aquifers instead of reservoirs.

Uber installed an emergency button inside its app that allows to you digitally share info with 911 dispatchers, something that would be activated as a part of this new ride check feature. Ubers main rival lift has a similar 911 button and expected to releas a similar ride check feature later in the year.

She claims lyft allowed the driver to remain on their platform under another name. Lift said the victim didnt report the incident asking for a refund and lyft did not become aware of the rape until it was reported in the press.

This is a house judiciary, not a house party. Lewandowski gave a tidbit. The president ordered him to ask the attorney general at the time Jeff Sessions to limit the scope of the russia investigation. Lewandowski says he never passed on that order. Normally that would be a blockbuster admission but we dont live in normal times. The House Judiciary Committee is investigating whether the president broke the law and abused his power which sounds an awful lot like a preliminary impeachment hearing. The Committee Chairman says hes comfortable with that, caused a widely reported split between nadler and pelosi who doesnt want to use the word impeachment. Its a question of law versus politics. Pelosi knows the democrats dont have the votes to impeach. Nadly is gathering details from trumps own advisers. President trump will visit california today. This is not a campaign. Mr. Trump does not have a chance of winning california, even Orange County is now democratic blue. Orange county. California is full of money and thats what politicians need. President obama came here to raise funds. President trump and his former close ally, republican Lindsey Graham are fighting on twitter, graham says the iranians think President Trump is weak for calling off a military strike after they shot down on american drone. The president takes exception to that. Grahams been all over the place with trump, first calling him crazy, unfit for office. Now calling trumps decision not to attack iran weak. Were watching everything that happens in washington. You can follow along on twitter, im scottmcgrew. Its as and the royals in oakland, the as winning 21 with ten games remaining. The team has a 1 1 2 lead for the top wild card spots. The as started their game after the giants last night and they finished three hours before. The giants were at fenway park in boston for a sixhour game. Giants Mike Yastrzemski hanging out with his hall of fame grandfather, red sox college end Carl Yastrzemski and guess what . The younger yas hit a home run for the family and the crowd went wild, including all that family that was in the stands. Isnt that cool, your grandpa . Hes a local boy. The game went into extra innings in the top of the 15th inning, score tied at 66. Alex dickerson with the gamewinning hit. The giants ended up beating the sox 76. Grandpa, grandpa, did you see what i did . Oh, you didnt. Lets replay it on the national screen. Well, when i was a young kid thats cool. Youre a hall of famer, i know, i know. All right, so lets look outside day, se showers will be hitting some parts of the bay area. It will be moving through fairly quickly. We get a look at the radar and its very scattered, with some light rain falling in parts of the north bay. As we go into the rest of the day, this is quickly moving on through ahead of a cold front sweeping across the bay area. Our hour by hour outlook shows what the radar could look like. If you have the nbc bay area app could you track this along with me and also get alerts as rain aproechds your location. We could see the rain at 8 30 moving closer to napa as well as san rafael and moving in to San Francisco by 10 00 to 11 00 as well as parts of the east bay. Once again not everyone will see the rain, but when you do it should last for about 20 to 30 minutes and move on. For the south bay, we could see it moving through morgan hill, still about 4 00 this afternoon, before it clears out. So this will be moving a little bit slower than the system we had on monday, and then it looks to bring lighter amounts of rain, only trace amounts for much of the parts of the north bay, east bay, as well as the peninsula, up to a few hundredths of an inch. A live look in walnut creek, so as youre starting out this morning, clouds rolling by, and temperatures starting out in the low 60s, reaching the low 70s by noon. Its going to feel nice with a breezy wind and cooler than normal temperatures, reaching 75 in san jose, 80 in antioch, 78 will be the high in napa while oakland reaches 72 degrees.

This goes on not only today but the next several days, happening through september 22nd, and then as we look at our forecast, well start to see things changing going into the next couple of days. That system moves out. Our winds stay northerly and we will by the end of the week start to see our temperatures going up, and we will see highs in the 90s, returning by the weekend. So were going from 79 today to 92 in the valleys on saturday. Slight cooling on sunday, and then going right back up for the beginning of next week.

Dennis dabneys earthquake Insurance Premium jumped from 2,500 last year to a whopping 6,320 for the next 12 months, that is a 150 increase. Dennis says nothing changed with his house or his coverage and there were no quakes over in byron, where he lives. So he was baffled by the increase. Earthquake insurance is sold by the california earthquake authority. So we asked the cea what happened . It told us about 25 of its policyholders saw a rate hike over the summer, including dennis. The cea blames three factors, higher construction costs, new Research Showing increased earthquake risk, and changes to how cea evaluates roofs and foundations. There is some good news.
