Breaking news, another tech giant promising billions of dollars in money overnight to help you or someone you know find Affordable Housing across the state. This time its apple saying it has a plan. Kris sanchez joins us with some of the highlights from this overnight development. Reporter hi there, laura. Apple certainly not the first bay area Silicon Valley tech giant to commit to the housing crisis but the 2. 5 billion commitment certainly is the biggest one to date. Youve seen apples slick product announcements like this one but this news came out quietly overnight in a written statement quoting ceo tim cook as saying he and apple feels Civic Responsibility towards housing in the name of civility and opportunity. You might be thinking what does this mean for me. Heres how the commitment breaks down. The company says 1 billion will go toward an Affordable HousingInvestment Fund for california to borrow money and other developers to build new low to moderate income housing. 1 billion will fund a firsttime buyer Mortgage Assistance Fund for downpayments especially for Service Personnel like School Employees and veterans. Apple is offering up to 3 million in land for the construction of Affordable Housing and also putting 150 million toward existing bay area housing funds and 50 million to support vulnerable populations through destination homes. Governor gavin newsom has high praise for apple at this point and says its Innovative Strategies should be an inspiration for other Bay Area Companies to follow suit and they certainly have been involved in this conversation. Facebook and google each committed 1 billion toward bay area housing and solving the affordability crisis. A lot of critics point to these Bay Area Companies as creating this problem by letting jobs outpace housing availability. Good news for a lot of people, kris. Thank you. In the south bay, a stunning incident at Milpitas High School is sparking outrage in that community after this video surfaced online. What youre looking at is a teacher wearing black face in a classroom and interpreting a rapper imitating a rapper. Were at the high school with a news statement overnight from the superintendent. Reporter indeed. We are waiting to hear what will happen with that teacher, whether or not well be disciplined or what his fate will be. We know that he is on administrative leave while the district investigates all this and this morning on social media students are saying they are shocked and disappointed. Millions of people not enough to eat, what will we do. Reporter now, a student posted this video on twitter saying that the man seen here in black face is a white teacher at Milpitas High School and that on halloween in a classroom he was apparently trying to imitate africanamerican rapper and social activist common. The president of the Silicon Valley naacp says that kind of behavior is just unacceptable. Its harmful, hurtful and its not an environment thats conducive for students of color to look at a teacher get up there and perform. Reporter the superintendent and the principal released a joint statement saying in part the act was disparaging to our students, parents, colleagues and the milpitas community we serve. Our Human Relations Team has placed the employee on leave and appropriate action will be taken pending further investigation. Now, the School District has not released a name of that student and will not confirm the name that students are placing on social media. In the meantime the naacp is asking for an investigation into his history and his association with students and a possible firing. Roz plater for today in the bay. 2019 so shocking to see this. Thank you. Only a few hundred homes remain threatened by the kincade fire as firefighters made moreheadway. As full containment is expected on thursday. The fire has burned just under 78,000 acres. 374 buildings have been destroyed including 174 homes. The latest round of California Wildfires setting off a new firestorm of tweets from President Trump which include veiled threats to cut federal wildfire funding. Over the weekend the president tweeted, Governor Newsom has, quote, done a terrible job of forest management. His tweets also suggest the same things happens each year and each year the government has to help to which the president said, quote, no more. The Governor Newsom tweeted back, you are dont believe in climate change. You are excused from this conversation. 5 06 and the impeachment inquiry on capitol hill and what could turn out to be a critical week. Nearly a dozen people are being called to testify but the big question this morning is will they show up. Tracy potts reports from washington. Reporter 11 Trump Administration officials are scheduled to testify in the impeachment inquiry this week. Four of them today. Most are political appointees not expected to show up as the white house refuses to cooperate. I think this week is going to be a big disappointment for those who are looking for new evidence. Reporter john bolton could be the exception. Hes the former National Security adviser who reportedly had issues with President Trumps personal attorney, rudy giuliani, directing ukraine policy. Boltons attorney has suggested hell only testify under subpoena. Its really up to the lawyers. I like john bolton. I always got along with him, but thats going to be up to the lawyers. The white house is telling people that under their employ you cant show up doesnt apply to john bolton. Reporter the whistleblower is now offering to answer republicans questions in writing, according to his attorney. I think that individual should come before the commit e committee. He could come down to the basement but he needs to answer the questions. You wouldnt call the whistleblower. What you call is the people who are actually there. Reporter there for the phone call between President Trump and ukraines president. That call touched off this inquiry. Democrats plan to begin public hearings in the next two or three weeks with transcripts from private testimony released this week. A new nbc news wall street journal poll shows 49 think President Trump should be both impeached and removed from office. Thats up 6 points from last month. Tracy potts, nbc news. Dungeness crab lovers may want to put the butter on hold, at least temporary. This is a chance to delay the start of the crab season. Its supposed to kick off november 15th but a new law allows fish and wildlife leaders to delay the season when migrating whales are still in local waters. Thats to limit them from being entangled in those nets. If a delay kicks it, it should be brief but not keep the local crab from thanksgiving dinner tables. A final decision is expected as soon as today. Now to a sign of the changing Holiday Season, ice skating coming back to San Franciscos union square this week. Opening day for the ice rink is wednesday. This is the rinks 12th year in San Francisco. Skating is open from 10 00 in the morning to 11 30 every night.

I love that we can ice skate in 70degree temperatures. But its not 70 degrees yet. It is a cold start to the morning as we take a live look outside in dublin. We are starting out with the need to turn on the heater. Right now its 45 in livermore, upper 30s in the north bay. Its 48 in palo alto and san jose. Our napa temperature trend will be at 43 degrees. Were heading into the upper 70s there today. For the east bay, up to 78 in livermore, 77 in san jose. Keep in mind that sun sets a little earlier today at 5 07. Mike, youre seeing some early changes on the bay bridge. That time change is a good one as well. We typically see the roads flooded. Folks get out at 5 if they can because its dark outside. We see traffic flowing better although it looks like its jamming up here. Its flowing much better towards the San Francisco side. That earlier crash i told you about caused a backup and it rippled back to the bay bridge and toll plaza. We do see the lanes filling in over the last seven minutes. That will be an issue getting across but the crash has cleared on the fremont side. The rest of your commute looking good. Well talk about livermore coming up. Back to you. Thanks, mike. 5 11 right now. Still ahead, two bay area counties going after ecigarettes. Thats coming up for you at 5 25. Well tell you about their bold plans to regulate tobacco.

Well talk about whats ahead for the rest of the week coming up in less than five minutes. The san mateo bridge right side, westbound commute moving nicely. My concern is the bay bridge where there was an early backup. Well talk about that coming up. A very happy monday to you. Mcdonalds fired its ceo over the weekend. He had a consensual relationship with a mcdonalds employee but thats against company rules. Our kris san sachez will have m about apple and the big money coming for Silicon Valley housing. Stocks rallied friday over hopes of a deal for china because of a surprisingly good jobs number, 128,000 jobs added in the month of october says the Labor Department. Considering the headwinds of the g. M. Strike and the wildfires, that is an unexpectedly good number. Though the president tweeted before he was supposed to that the number was 303,000 which is very different than 128,000. The white house economic adviser helped break down the white house math. Heres the Labor Departments 128,000 to which the president adds the striking g. M. Workers. This makes a certain amount of sense. When they measured the numbers, the auto workers were off the job. Now theyre back on the job. All right, were okay so far. So back to this. The Labor Department said 45,000 people were on strike. The house has 60,000. This number is wrong. There are 20,000 fewer people working on the census as well, not 20,000 more. This is an interesting one. The president takes the adjustments on the previous months jobs numbers and adds those in. This is not how we measure monthly jobs. We dont subtract the old numbers if theyre smaller and add them if theyre bigger. Now, the president is not wrong in this. Its just this is not how data is presented. Other news, last night Silicon Valley hosted the 8th annual breakthrough awards. Mark zuckerberg there to help present those awards. There are breakthrough prizes in the fields of life sciences, fundamental physics and math. Its always exciting because, okay, there are the nobel prizes but when it comes to science theres not the black tie sort of raz ma taz sort of things that you see at the oscars and that kind of stuff and its kind of fun to see scientists getting up there, winning an award in their black tie. Thats right. Cool to see that. For kids to see too. A little science in this story as well. As santa and his elves start to pick up the pace, a new study showing how people are racking up new debt during the Holiday Season. Turns out about 60 of the current debtholders already accepting their card balances may go higher come the end of the holidays and when it comes to generations, more than half of all millennials are open to higher debt. Its 40 when it comes to the gen xers and just below that for baby boomers. Anybody start Holiday Shopping already . I thought about it. Thought about it, thats a good start, because you want to know what youre going to get everybody and then we have less time this year. One less weekend or something. Okay. Time to get started. Get thinking about it. There you go. When they open the ice rink thats when im like, okay. Thats wednesday. We are going to have falllike weather to start the morning and feeling more like summer this afternoon. As we look live at oakland, we have a foggy start with low clouds rolling across the bay and its also chilly. If youre about to step out, you do need a nice, warm jacket. We have upper 40s at 7 00 that will lead into upper 60s by early this afternoon. Overall its going to be a really nice day with warmer than normal temperatures. We should be in the upper 60s and low 70s but were heading up to 77 in downtown san jose. 79 in east san jose. Pleasanton reaching 78 and 73 in oakland. Half moon bay will be in the upper 60s while San Francisco will see low 70s in the Mission District today and nevada reaching 75 degrees. Lets go through our micro climates and see how the day shapes up. Keep in mind that were going to hit those high temperatures a little earlier in the afternoon and then the sun sets at 5 07 today so we are going to have a very short day it seems. Then our High Pressure stays in place. Were not going to see this pattern changing. It is blocking our chances of any rain in the forecast throughout this week, next week, possibly the week after that. So we are not going to see any rain here. Our temperatures are holding steady, once again above normal, reaching into the upper 70s. Morning temperatures in the upper 40s and then for San Francisco were going to see some upper 60s and low 70s all throughout the next seven days. Mike, you have a couple of spots recovering now. Were looking over here for the trivalley, give you a second to look. Everywhere over here in the green. Heres what we have slowing, coming through livermore, past ruby hill, an earlier car fire eastbound slowed the westbound commute and its sort of sticking around which is about the time we see slowing anyway. That volume building but not a problem off of 580. Expect a couple of seconds extra past ruby hill. Contra costa highway slows a bit through pittsburgh and then the bay bridge which is in recovery mode but the earlier crash at fremont did cause a backup back to the toll plaza. All lanes are filled in and judging by the pattern now the hov lane is moving quickly. I think they turned on the lights even though its not registering on the chp report. Back to you. Still ahead, another parent in the College Admissions scandal heads to jail today. Coming up at 5 30, the reason the sentencing of a napa valley winery owner stands out.

Happening today, santa clara supervisor cindy chavez will talk about banning ecigarettes and vaping sales. In september supervisors unanimously banned the sale of all people under the age of 21.

Leaders have taken similar action with a lawsuit to take effect next year. Thats provided voters dont overturn it when they head to the polls tomorrow. If youre a fan of the movie grease, you may get chills that are multiplying over the sale of an iconic outfit.

I had just gotten ready to ask our friends to record what was going on here. We just got word that theres no need to do that. The driver was heading westbound 80 going the wrong way on the fremont off ramp where another crash just cleared. Chp was able to flag that person down and say, whoa, whoa, you read the sign wrong. Thats good news. Westbound moving smoothly and safely towards San Francisco. The backup at the toll plaza, eastbound is okay and the rest of the bay, a mild build. Back to you. Thanks, mike. Almost everyone can sympathize with hundreds of travelers in this next story, a sea of very unhappy people standing in threehourlong lines at lax waiting for an uber. Were live at sfo this morning to show us whats happened at lax and whats being done to prevent it from happening right here at home. Thats right. We dont want that to happen here, pete. Reporter good morning, guys. Sfo actually had similar issues when it first made those ride share changes in june a while back. Folks that travel know sunday is one of the busiest days and nights of the week so that was to be expected when they made those changes. There were some issues at lax. I want to show you first an image of someone who was unhappy posting about their issues with lax during what was going on with those long lines. The ride share policy requires travelers to go to a special lot for ride share or taxis, similar to what they implemented at sfo. Those changes at lax began earlier in the week but with sundays also being the busiest day of the week, there were longer lines and of course fewer ride share options. As i mentioned, sfo experienced its own sunday night blues when the airport designated a new pickup zone back in june. A spokesman said at the time its not uncommon to see more than 1200 uber and lyft drivers on sunday night. Now, thats due to the number of what they call casual and parttime drivers that are driving just on those sunday nights. Now, its unclear if this is the same issue for travelers at lax last night but it was clearly a frustrating night for all. Im not sure how long that would be. I dont know, maybe 200 or 300 people in front of me. Chaotic, people are screaming. People are angry. People cant get on their phones. Reporter sfo did work on that issue by having workers stationed around the airport to direct travelers to the area where that zone is located, also handing out fliers to them who are waiting on travelers. L. A. X. Plans to rely on uber and ly lyft. Thanks for the latest, pete. 5 34. Happening tomorrow orinda leaders will debate changes for shortterm rental rules after five people were shot and killed at a party on halloween night. Video posted on social media showed some of the chaos inside that house before the shots were fired. You see it here. The home was listed on airbnb which is putting new measures in place to ban party houses on its platform. So far police have not announced any arrests. Also happening tomorrow, San Jose Police chief is going to provide new details of a Deadly Police shooting on halloween. Last thursday officers went out to a call on mckee road. This is a block from 680. Officers say they found a man with a gun, demanded him to stop Walking Around drop the gun. Police say he refused and it appeared he drew the weapon. Thats when the officer shot him. He later died at the hospital. That gun ended up being a replica. 5 34. Happening today, a bay area parent in the College Admission scandal is set to report to prison. He was sentenced to five months and fined 100,000.

Brady, a san mateo native, said his offense didnt do a good enough job. The 49ers play the seahawks a week from tonight at levi. What do you think, should i battle through the levi traffic to go . Yes, i think so because the day after you go to a night event is so much fun to talk to you. Its great. Actually, when im so exhausted i kind of get loopy. So good luck to that. Stay tuned, folks. Over here, the south bay were looking at smooth traffic flow. The bigger concern is 580. I did get word of a cash with a tiny bit of slowing westbound 580. Your commute direction threw livermore the first spring town exit there, there may be some lane effect just for a few seconds but they should get that quickly to the shoulder. Were on schedule for your typical monday flow of traffic heading towards the bay bridge. The toll plaza started early why the problems on the bridge but all problems on the bridge are gone. Problems on the bridge gone. Good weather still here with us. Yeah. Were going to see the weather we had this past weekend continue into this upcoming weekend if youre already starting to make some plans. Lets get a look at that sevenday forecast. We have mid 70s for the inland areas. A lot more sunshine. Morning temperatures in the upper 40s and for San Francisco low 70s by saturday as we check out where you may be headed for the coastal areas. Half moon bay will be at 71 on friday and upper 60s for the rest of the weekend. If youre planning to head to Russian River valley expect it to reach into the upper 70s from friday through sunday. Morning temperatures though start out chilly with upper 30s and low 40s. For yosemite were also going to have some very nice and mild conditions reaching into the low 60s.

Another horse euthanized. What happened to that horse, next. It looks like the white house will block four witnesses from testifying. Well bring you the very latest when today in the bay continues. 5 41. Its all clear and a chilly start to the day. Heres a live look outside at the south bay, checking out san jose as we head down to santa theresa. Expect it to be in the upper 40s and that will lead to upper 60s by 11 00 as we warm up fairly quickly. Well reach the upper 70s today. Ill show you this weather pattern continuing and whats ahead in the rest of the forecast coming up in less than five minutes. Youre looking at palo alto, highway 101. It looks great. It connects the south bay and the city but in the south bay and the city we got word of two fires. Were going to let you know what you have to avoid. Thanks so much, kari and mike. Stick around for this story coming up at 6 00 a. M. Theres a black face controversy at one south bay school. What parents and students are saying before school heads back in session this morning. Plus new reaction the school gave us overnight. 5 42. Bart supervisor is being called a hero after witnesses say he saved a mans life. Heres a video there. This is the aftermath when both of those men embrace. The man in the safety vest is john oconnor. He was working crowd control after yesterdays raiders game and thats when people say an intoxicated man fell onto the tracks as that train was approaching the coliseum station. Witnesses say he grabbed that man, pulled him to safety. Wow, thats great. Quick thinking. 5 43 right now. The latest death of a horse at a troubled santa anita race track is creating waves throughout the world of horse racing. Thats because it happened during saturdays 6 million Breeders Cup Classic which is the single richest horse race in the united states. 4yearold mongolian groom was pulled up in the final turn. Race leaders say the gelding fractured his left hind leg. He was euthanized two hours after saturdays race. In a little less than a year 37 horses have died at santa anita. Authorities in brentwood are investigating the crash of a car into a utility poll that seriously injured the driver. It happened a little bit after 8 00 last night on lone tree way in brentwood near ohara. One person has died. They were air lifted from the scene. So far no update on injuries. Election day is tomorrow and a lot of attention will be on prop a in San Francisco. Supporters rallied over the weekend trying to get their message out. Prop a is a 600 million housing bond and proponents say it would create Affordable Housing for seniors, low income families and more. The mayor and president and city controllers make sure that it would not raise one cent in property taxes. The 600 million is as much as we could do without raising taxes. Thats a promise that was made and capped in prop a. Opponents call it a bad aid and it wont work. If it passes it would be the largest bond in San Francisco history. It may be a buy day in the impeachment inquiry. Assuming of course the witnesses show up. Thats exactly right. Good morning, and that might be a pretty big assumption there. Congress wants to talk to four white house insiders today but we are hearing they will be n noshows. The white house has blocked them from testifying. The big fish of course is john bolton, the former white house National Security adviser who objected to the president s behavior. The white house doesnt want him to testify but bolton doesnt work for the white house anymore. Hes scheduled for thursday. President trump continues to insist there was nothing wrong with that phone call to ukraines president. He said he didnt hear any complaints about it. Now, he may not have heard anything but he tweeted, yeah, ive never heard any complaints, but congress has heard from a lot of witnesses who were alarmed by the phone call, including colonel vindman, the cia Inspector General as well who made a criminal referral to the justice department, the white house lawyers who decided to move the transcript to a secret service, and of course theres the original whistleblower. Well, the whistleblower gave a very inaccurate report and as you know, certain of the media released information about a man that they said was the whistleblower. I dont know if thats true or not. What they said is hes an obama person who was involved with brennan, susan rice which means obama. The whistleblower, according to reports confirmed by nbc, works in the white house, works in National Intelligence and did so before trump arrived so that he worked with john brennan, the head of the cia or susan rice, the National Security adviser is not that surprising. Of course he did. Many people, particularly career military and intelligence analysts who work in the white house now worked in the white house a few years ago because thats their job. They work in the white house. In normal white house news, the World Champion and home Team Washington nationals will visit the white house today after their big world series win. Were watching everything thats happening in washington including who does and does not show up today. You can follow me on twitter. Speaking of showing up, did you remember to set your clocks back . Daylight saving time is in full swing but as researchers say every year the change could negatively affect your health. Experts say it can have an impact on your sleep patterns, yes. Another study shows a risk of heart attack or stroke increases when the time changes. Researchers also say the difference can lead to an increase of number of car crashes. I woke up an hour early today. Isnt this the last time were falling back before the law changes . Theyre talking about, yeah, well see. I thought, oh gosh, i could finally sleep in so i got up and went for a run at 2 30 in the morning. Watch out for a diminutive runner on the road. Thats right. And then youll be super sleepy later today, right as the sun sets which happens at 5 07 today. Its going to be really early and were still adjusting to that. Were also getting ready for sunrise within the next hour and well see that very shallow layer of fog right across the bay and you can see it over the golden gate bridge. Elsewhere it is mostly clear and were starting out with cool temperatures, especially in the north bay. Weve dropped down to 37 degrees in santa rosa. Its 46 in oakland and concord, san jose at 48 degrees and 50 degrees now in San Francisco. Getting you out the door in Mountain View with a look at how the day will shape up or at least the morning, well be at 46 degrees and low 70s by noon. These temperatures are slightly above normal. In fact, a lot above normal, especially for the south bay, reaching 77 degrees. Normal is about 68. Well be up to 78 degrees in concord and 77 in napa. Santa rosa today reaching 80 degrees.

Its also blocking our chance of getting any rain as it steers it well to the north of us, up and around as it affects the rest of the country, but for the bay area and much of california we are going to stay dry. Heres a look at our sevenday forecast. No changes here. Upper 70s today. Morning temperatures in the upper 40s and then we are going to see this as we go into the weekend continuing, may even be another two or three weeks before we seen see that High Pressure breaking down, giving us a chance of rain.
