Kpix 5s Juliette Goodrich is in pleasanton where people are having a hard time getting a test. There are many testing options, but getting a test seems to be the hard part these days. And when you do get your test and you get the results, doctors say that doesnt mean youre in the free and clear come next week. Karma chang and her two sons got their covid test today in the cv s drivethru line. No, we just wanted to before the holidays just make sure we were healthy. And we plan to just stay with our own family. Reporter but securing appointments meant booking them at the strike of midnight, and even then there was no guarantee. You had to go on at midnight, three days before to book your appointment. If you waited until that morning, you werent going to get an appointment. Reporter or there is the hours long wait at the Alameda County fair where testing was done by 10 00 a. M. Because theyd reached a 500 patient limit. Testing should be ubiquitous. That should be a major priority of the new administration. Reporter an epidemiologist has this warning. Now we can bring back the kid from college in wisconsin and, you know, have him meet up with his grandmother on thanksgiving for six hours with no masks on. Not a good thing. You need to be really careful about those sorts of situations. This is our bubble. Reporter as for getting your test results, places like cvs and even the Alameda County fairgrounds say you likely wont get your results for the next 48 hours. And then beyond that, its up to you if you stay in your bubble or not. In the east bay, Juliette Goodrich, kpix 5. Lets take a live look at oakland tonight. A new covid crackdown is hitting many businesses in Alameda County right now. They have been forced to shut down indoor activities now that the county is back in the purple tier. Its outdoors only at restaurants, gyms and places of worship. In napa county, Health Officials say the surge is being driven largely by household gatherings and between friends and family. Now, that has a lot of Business Owners asking why are we being penalized with new restrictions . Knowing that people are getting sick because theyre gathering at home, with their families, going to house parties, so why are businesses closing . Theres no way to control whats going on in homes. I feel badly for my neighbors who have restaurants, and then we suffer by not having the tourism coming into our shop. New fallout and new photos of governor gavin newsom attending a dinner party at the French Laundry without a mask on. Los angeles fox station kttv First Published these photos of the governor snapped earlier this month. The governor was seen sitting at a crowded table of 12 people at the restaurant. Indoor dining was allow at reduced capacity, but the governor insisted the Birthday Party was outdoors. We also learned today these two top Health Executives were among the guests seated near the governor. Krar medical association ceo Dustin Corcoran and top lobbyist janus norman.

The governor has apologized for attending and said he made a mistake. Looking live at chase center, the warriors had hoped to welcome fans back next month with a first of its kind testing program, but as kpix 5s andria borba explains, the team just found out tonight that the plan wasnt a slam dunk for some city leaders, andria . Reporter yeah, it got rejected by the department of Public Health here in the city and county of San Francisco, ken. Now, reminder, here at chase center, the warriors still have not played an entire season. That season cut short when the pandemic ally flared up here in the u. S. And it looks like it will be quite some time before it will be loud and rocking once again. Threepoint splash downs at chase center wont be backed by the roar of the crowd any time soon. Operation dub nation a plan to bring 9,000 fans a game, inside the mission bay arena by testing them has been blocked by the city. Heres how warriors president rick outlined the 30 million testing plan just last week. Everyone from our employees to all the parttime workers to every fan will be tested for the coronavirus with the highest quality test available within 48 hours of the event itself. Reporter warriors owner joe, a trained epidemiologist, offered to foot the bill for the testing plan himself. In a letter, the Health Department rejected that idea today. In the present circumstances, bringing thousands of individuals and households together, many of whom would travel and return from other counties, creates too much risk of widespread transmission in transit and while visiting San Francisco. The warriors responded with a statement of their own. We believe the thorough, detailed and adaptive reopening plans weve been developing over the last eight months will help us accomplish our goal of welcoming our fans and staff back to chase center when the time is right. Now, the nbas season was set to kick off on december 22nd. Any splash downs from steph curry, however, seem to be met with silence at this point until the pandemic is under some bit of better control. Live in San Francisco tonight, andria borba, kpix 5. Just bad timing right now. Andria, thank you for that. Despite a spike in covid cases, one north Bay School District says inperson learning can be done safely.

And you can see that were not looking at rain clouds, just some regular old cloud cover over the bay bridge. Almost 4. 5 inches on top of mt. Tam. That was the big winning spot for this rainfall event. The higher terrain picking up a lot more rain. Santa rosa picked up more than 1 inch of total rainfall. Almost an inch in danville. Almost a half inch in San Francisco. San jose, the good news is it was measurable, the bad news, barely. Less than a tenth of an inch in santa clara county.

Well see fog tomorrow morning. Near zero visibility around the bay and spreading into the inland valleys. It should head back up quickly tomorrow, unobstructed visibility expected by a late morning on thursday. Right now, good look downtown from the top of the mark hopkins hotel. Some of that lingering cloud cover out there. Were waiting for that to settle down to ground flefl the form of fog. Temperatures in the 50s across the board. Anywhere from 51 in santa rosa to 58 degrees downtown and in oakland. Temperatures retreat as the clouds break up farther up in the atmosphere and before the fog develops at ground level, mostly in the low to mid40s with upper 40s to around 50 around the bay. High temperatures tomorrow are almost exactly where were supposed to be in midnovember, within a degree or two on either side of whats average for november 19th. Low 60s around the bay. Upper 50s along the coast with low to mid60s farther inland and very little change to our temperatures as we head through the next several days. Low to mid60s inland. Low 60s around the bay with mostly mid to upper 50s along the coast. No rain in sight for at least the next seven days.
