Despite picking up North Carolina President Trump fell further behind overall in the electoral count. Biden leads the Electoral College voters 306 to 232. The pressure is on for President Trump to concede. And that pressure is mounting. Today he left open the possibility that biden might be the next president. This administration will not be going through a lockdown. Whatever happens in the future, who knows which administration it will be. I guess time will tell. Regardless of the president s comments the Joe Biden Transition Team says its moving ahead even without the help of the white house. The numbers in california are revealing. President trump did break a state record. More than 5. 5 million californians voted for him. Thats the most republican votes ever cast for a gop candidate in the state.

The devil is in the details. Reporter a lot of those details are still being worked out including who gets the vaccine first. New results from mudernas trial are expected in a matter of days. It all hinges on whether or not the ninetysecond candidate moderna with get its data out in time and whether or not it shows a robust and promising response. Reporter meanwhile president elect joe bidens team is working on its own vaccination distribution plan. Members of his team says that plan is running into major roadblocks due to President Trumps refusal to concede and work with the biden transition team. Dr. Hong says it is crucial that a vaccine is approved soon because americans are in desperate need of hope during this crisis. Dont put all the eggs in one basket and think this is the cure all, but it does give us a symbol and metaphor that things are looking promising on the horizon if we can just hunker down and get through winter.

You know, the rain was so nice to just wash everything off and get it clean after all this smoke and ash we had over this past summer. I was outside today doing some gardening and actually still some ash on the ground, so i know like a lot of folks who kind of felt like a big cleansing here across the bay area getting more of that rainfall. Well take you into storm ranger and mobile doppler radar. We have the live sky camera up, and you can see sky ranger and a bit of mist here and storm ranger is the only one here then bay area that scans closer to the ground so it can give us a better idea of whats happening. As we get a look at the live sweep, you know it is live when you can see the red surveillance arm moving around, and currently as it moves over the north bay theres a little bit of some patchy drizzle. But other than that, again, the storm has moved off towards the south. Through tomorrow morning i do want you to know well have some cloud cover here through the bay area and possibly some patchy areas of dense fog youll want to watch out for. If youre up early around 5 00, 6 00, 7 00 in the morning please be careful of that. And afternoon that sunshine returns and real beautiful weather coming our way. Jacket weather to start.
