You see that in yellow. Then on friday, the final holdout, Santa Clara County, will begin phase two. So what was the biggest change in Contra Costa County today . Most Retail Stores are allowed to reopen for curbside pickup. The coowner of this walnut creek book shop tells us shes excited about this next step but doesnt know if it will be enough to keep her store afloat. A nearby toy store already looking forward to the next step after this when customers will be able to come inside. So that there can be proper social distancing, were, you know, taking steps with Hand Sanitizer and making sure theyre Wearing Masks and that sort of thing. So were preparing for that next step of being able to open up. We get it. There are a lot of layers here, and it can get confusing.

New at 11 00, if you want to go to a hair salon, heres your chance, but you got to drive a little, to the sacramento area. The Health Officer who oversees yuba city is allowing salons to reopen but with major modifications. All of this is going against the governors orders. Nbc bay areas cheryl hurd is there with the details. Reporte we are in this big tugofwar between what our state says we can do and what our local Health Officer says we can do. Its not been fun. Reporter according to kristi goalby, one of the owners of headlines salon and spa in yuba city, the past two weeks have been exhausting. Ive probably never worked this hard in my life. Reporter clients have been flooding the salon with calls for an appointment. We have pages and pages and pages of people waiting to get in. Reporter the spa, which has been in business for 35 years, got the goahead from the county health department, not the state, to open up on may 4th. One of the recommendations is limited contact time. So were not spending two and three hours with a client at a time. So the waiting area is off limits to guests. Reporter the mandatory modifications have been put in place. The salon looks a lot different now. Masks are mandatory, and clients have to wait outside until they can be seen. But its good to be back in business. For the first eight weeks, we went from having a robust, healthy business, to literally no income at all. Its an understatement to say its been an emotional roller coaster. Reporter and its been scary because the state licensing board called goldby with a stern warning, saying there will be consequences if they open up for business. No one from the state has come by. Shes going with county rules, hoping all of her workers will feel comfortable coming back to work. We feel comfortable in our practices and the things that were going to be doing, but im not forcing anybody to come back to work. Reporter not all salons are opened up. Some Business Owners are afraid that the state will come in and revoke their license. Folks in this industry are hoping that both sides could come to some type of agreement. In yuba city, cheryl hurd, nbc bay area news. Its tough with all the different rules and different interpretations of the rules. So cheryl was near sacramento. So when can most people in the bay area get a haircut . That wont come until the county you live in moves into phase three. Phase three includes salons, gyms, movie theaters, and churches. Thats expected to reopen next month. Heres a look at the latest cases reported today. 48 new cases now in San Francisco. 15 in Santa Clara County.

As we reported yesterday, seven counties in the bay area went 48 hours without any new deaths from covid19. However, today San Mateo County reported nine new deaths from the virus. There is some encouraging news. Overall the number of hospitalizations is down. Look at this graph. 54 people hospitalized with covid19 in San Francisco. 55 in san mateo. Contra costa county with only 16. And these are all lows for these counties. Thats also a new low since march 24th, we should say, for Contra Costa County. Alameda and santa clara counties both have more than 80 patients hospitalized. Tomorrow a protest is scheduled at a Solano CountySkilled Nursing facility. 11 residents of the Windsor Vallejo care center have died from the virus. More than 130 people have tested positive.

One of the quietest places in the bay area this past couple of months has been the International Terminal at sfo but thats about to change. Flights to europe and japan are about to resume. That doesnt mean the Passenger Experience will be anything like it was. Heres nbc bay areas terry mcsweeney. Reporter at sfo this evening as it has been for a couple months now, its pretty much deserted. Were about 96 below where we would normally be at this time of year. Reporter that will change a bit next month now that lufthansa, swiss, and all Nippon Airways say theyll resume flying to europe and japan. If you havent been out here lately, be prepared for major changes, like making sure your travel is considered essential. For San Francisco and San Mateo County guidelines. Our airport hasnt really opened up yet for tourism if you will. It remains to be seen what the next iterations of Health Orders bring. Reporter the airport is not enforcing that rule, but face masks and social distancing are required. Hand sanitizer and plexiglas dividers are everywhere. Its quite scary to touch anything or just if we touch anything, we need to put sanitizer and wear masks all the time and then maintain distance. Reporter these folking queueing up six feet apart for an air india flight say flight attendants have changed as well. They had protective gear. They had helmet, and they have complete gear and mask and gloves. Reporter physical distancing not a problem on near empty flights now, but with summer just around the corner, fairly crowded flights will return. It begs the question what are airlines going to do when you have a fairly booked flight, how do you maintain some of those levels of comfort for passengers. Reporter many of these changes are expected to be withwith us for quite some time. Analysts say its going to be three years before we get back to the way it was prepandemic. Hard to imagine 96 decrease there at the traffic at sfo at the International Terminal.

Heres nbc bay areas ian cull. Reporter this video trending on twitter tonight shows a man recording a costco employee asking him to put a mask on or leave. Hi, everyone. I work for costco, and im asking this member to put on a mask because that is our company policy. So either wear the mask and im not doing it because i woke up in a free country. Have a great day. So youre going to take this cart from me full of stuff . Youre no longer welcome here in our warehouse. You need to leave. Reporter its reportedly in las vegas and is the latest maskdefying video circulating, this one viewed more than 3 million times. Like costco, face coverings are required at businesses in most bay area counties. Its why every shopper we saw at this san jose target was wearing one, and many condemning the mans behavior. I just think theyre not fully aware of all gting the fa different Media Outlets or taking time to do the research and listen to the scientists. Reporter businesses can refuse service to someone without a mask just like if you dont have shoes or a shirt on. I talked with multiple Law Enforcement agencies today. They say that they can remove someone for trespassing if that person doesnt leave, but theyd rather focus on education and perhaps even give that person a face covering.

Keith payne used to live in japan and says masks are commonly worn to protect the community. Theres a respect for others, and you see it i mean this is years ago, but you would see it where people, if they had a cold, they would wear a mask. Reporter others say its the law and do your part.

Stay at home and save a granny. That was the message in palo alto tonight. The group raging grannies sang and danced on college avenue, but this show wasnt just for fun. With memorial day weekend approaching, the ladies say theyre worried people will forget about our social distancing and head to beaches or barbecues. They just want to remind everyone now is not the time to let your guard down. Memorial day, i think, is not a day to go out and create more illness. Its a day to reflect and take care and enjoy yourself but be careful at the same time. The grannies also voiced concerns about cuts to programs that help seniors and the disabled. The group was founded, by the way, 20 years ago. Well, bay area home sales have plummeted since the covid outbreak, but prices arent going down. April numbers reflect the first full month of the virus, of the impact here. Sales of singlefamily homes dropped 37 . Statewide, sales were down nearly a third from april of last year.

Lets bring in our chief meteorologist, jeff ranieri. Jeff, its been, gosh, ten weeks since youve been at home so you havent been commuting. Im coming in here every third week. I can see slowly, though, every week passes, a little more traffic on the road. Yeah, and, you know, at least weve been able to make some of those remarkable gains, a little bit of a Silver Lining if you could call it that in the middle of all of this chaos weve been going through with our daily lives. Now, Weather Forecast at least lately has had some unusual may rain, also sierra snow. But were on the other side of this now as well start to see some sunnier and warmer weather build in. I did want to start off with storm ranger mobile Doppler Radar and show you we have dried out over the bay area with some spotty showers over the sierra. Thats the one spot even into tomorrow well continue to see some on again, off again snow showers. And then everybodys going to really dry out. Let me show you exactly why. What were dealing with is this area of High Pressure thats moving in, has warm, dry air associated with it. Its going to take any kind of rain chance that we would have and move it well off towards the east. The big headline is were warming on up. Through tomorrow morning, well start with patchy low clouds over the trivalley, peninsula, south bay, low 50s. As you head more off to the north, well start with increased sunshine over the east bay, San Francisco, and the north bay, upper 40s and low 50s. So with that sunshine as we move through tomorrow, i expect everybody with a mostly sunny sky. Its going to help to heat us up. 74 in san jose. The east bay, a few spots in the upper 70s like concord, antioch, pittsburg. The more you get away from the coast and the bay and that cooler breeze, the hotter those temperatures get. Oakland, 69 with that bay breeze. Palo alto, 73 degrees. Then you head closer as we mentioned to the ocean breeze, and youre back down into the 60s here in San Francisco. But its what you like this time of the year. 60 in the marina. 63 in the ingleside. For the north bay, 76 in napa. The only issue with the forecast tomorrow is the fact that the allergies still may be bugging you. We have oak, pine, and olive in the high category. Gra grass is in the moderate. Head to my twitter page. I have a medicare the symptoms list so you can take a look at allergies versus covid and the flu. Low to mid70s sun, monday, and tuesday in San Francisco. Thats going to be a good change. The inland valleys may get a little bit too hot for you. We have 84 saturday, 88 sunday, 92 on memorial day.

Promising news from south korea. Patients who thought they were getting covid19 for a second time, it wasnt happening. Researchers looked at nearly 300 people who tested negative after recovering, but then later on, those same people tested positive. Researchers traced nearly 800 of their close contacts and did not find any new positive cases. Doctors there and here in San Francisco say they believe the patients were shedding dead virus particles. It wasnt false positive. Probably picking up viral fragments that werent alive, and we see that alive because whats positive and whats negative at the borderline is very imprecise in these kinds of tests. That dr. Peter chin hong from ucsf. South korean Officials Say they will no longer recommend people test negative in order to return to work after they recover and finish 14 days of isolation.

The authority says the as balked on the rent because they havent used the ballpark during the pandemic and arent able to generate any revenue.
