How many people were out here. Right now, streaming on cbsn bay area. The u. S. Records the single deadliest day since the pandemic began. More than 3100 deaths. Here in california, we have had more than 18,000 new cases and 113 deaths in just the past 24 hours. Positivity rate now at 7 . Good evening, im lisbeth cook. Im ken bastida. Heres the new plan to deal with the search. He is breaking up the state into five separate zones. If intensive care unit capacity falls below 15 , in any one of those zones, it will get hit with new stayathome orders. Ken and elizabeth, they are in danger of falling below the 15 threshold and just the next few days. Almost every region in the state is vulnerable to the new stayathome order role. Must we do more than weve ever done. The match to determine if a region goes back to full shelter in place order is icu capacity, if it dips below 15 , a regional move into a minimum three week long shut down. Nearly 4 times the rate of transmission, going on in our state that we had just six weeks ago, it is time that we actually limit our movement, and really this transmission down, so that is what this is about. Reporter bars, wineries, personal services and barbershops must close. Critical infrastructure will remain open along with schools with waivers, retail at 20 occupancy and restaurants can only serve meals via takeout and delivery. After three weeks the state will look at transmission rate at that moment, and icu projections for the month ahead. We know that cases today will end up in the hospital two weeks from the time that we register those cases. At about 12 , and then within about a week, weekend a half, we start to see individuals were hospitalized, going to the intensive care unit. With vaccine deployment weeks away, governor gavin newsom said this third wave of coronavirus should beat the last for the golden state. We did not anticipate, we all need to step up, we need to meet this moment headon, and we need to do everything that we can. Field hospitals are getting ready to be activated for a potential crush of covid 19 patients. Including the San Mateo Event Center and the pavilion in richmond. Now around the state they are in the most danger of falling into that stayathome order the soonest with the icu capacity hovering between 18 and 19 . Live in San Francisco, andria borba, kpix5. Meanwhile antivaccine activists took to the streets, rallying outside the Santa Clara County office building. The group was speaking out against pandemic lockdown policies and the vaccine. However, one Stanford University expert told us he thinks that desire to move past the pandemic will drive more than enough demand for the vaccine. Im not going to get the vaccine, put a bullet in my head. I would just get sick with covid. It will be fine. Im cautiously optimistic that most people are actually going to be clamoring for this. They want to get back to their lives. They want to go back to normal. Hospital beds in Santa Clara County are filling up. Alarmingly fast. Here is a look at the numbers. More than 36 hospital beds in Santa Clara County are filling up. Alarmingly fast. Here is a look at the numbers. More than 36,000 cases and all, 18 of the icu beds are available. That is it. 18 but as Juliette Goodrich reports, those numbers can change on a dime. All eyes are on Santa Clara County right now, they issue a daily dashboard information on hospital totals. Heres the latest. In terms of hospital beds, 18 available data county. Icu beds, 17 available, noni see you, 19 available. The governor stayathome order is based on icu capacity per region. The direction we are headed, we are going to be at less than 15 icu bed capacity in the very near future. The numbers change daily if not hourly. 50 icu beds available today, yesterday it was 44 beds available. Is another factor taken into account . Staffing levels. The number of beds available depends not only on how many beds there are but how this staffing is for those beds. So what we asked hospitals to report every day is how many beds can they actually staff to take care of patients. The new stayathome order is triggered when the intensive care unit capacity in our region drops below 15 . So Santa Clara County maybe at a certain percent but then i believe the announcement it would be based on the regions there is light at the end of the tunnel. It will get worse before it gets better. Lets switch gears right now, lets check in weather because it was a big waves Surfers Paradise today at ocean beach. Alex montana, and rgn mcconnell captured the accident. Check out these wades. The massive swell at ocean beach looking more like mavericks in Half Moon Bay or even the pipeline in hawaii. Watching the big waves and seeing the surfers going for it, it is a little too big up there for me but i am admiring all the other surfers going forward. Reporter you can see the faces they are triple and quadruple the height of surfers. We have a really big swell coming through, ocean beach in San Francisco is one of the, one of the best big wave beach breaks we have up here in california. You know, it gets really gnarly, theres areas out here that are actually difficult to get out to the guys that are out there surfing, they are putting up a fight just to get out past the break today. The waves have so much for scummy make the wrong move, you could die in an instant. One of the most interesting things, it is a heavy sure pound come you can at easily break the neck or ahead, the ribs are really strong, the water is freezing, theres a great white breeding ground off the coast. It is pretty dangerous. Reporter the biggest waves we spotted were breaking south of noriega street and you can see dozens of people including National Surf photographer brian phone are they are taking in the spectacle. Theres a lot of folks here today that are pretty well known in the surf world. Theres a lot of people that have been doing this for years that are kind of superstars in the industry up here but we also have a lot of other big waves going right now, maverick was going up earlier so there are a few people out. Reporter he was out there filming the pros who showed up, some with jet skis to get towed into the huge waves. It is really good that they are out to keep an eye and everybody because if somebody breaks a leash or loses their board, and, you know, does not really have an easy way to get back in or get caught in a replica i did earlier. Reporter waves this big combined with the clean conditions created by offshore wind is a rare sight at ocean beach. Oh, my god, that is such a good wave, though. He is. Oh. Amazing what they can do.

On the fire watch night, 7200 acre fire jumping through canyons, threatening homes in orange county. Fire crews are up against powerful santa ana winds, humidity, and very steep terrain. The bond fire nearly quadrupled in size, in just a few hours, after starting as a house fire yesterday. About 25,000 residents are under mandatory evacuations, some evacuating for the second time in weeks. Utilities have cut electricity to tens of thousands of customers in case the wind knocked trees into powerlines. They scream fire, fire. It is right here, so we have to leave right now. I looked out the window and it was already so big. This is our sixth fire this year, the sixth one. It is so, so frustrating when you live in california, fire season is yearround, not just a few months out of the year. Right now, you add in the santa and the win and in terms, a particularly dangerous situation. This is the kind of phrasing that is reserved for tenor watches, theres the potential for a long track. Is a combination of very low humidity, very dry biofuels. Gdusting over 60 miles an hour to the red flag warnings to continue for southern california, around here, the wind has been on shore but not nearly as strong, at least not for now, some passing clouds. Clear skies, we will see plenty of sunshine. The next weather system is not that far off, a chance of housebuilding and already on saturday and likely we will see increasing clouds from the west and the future cast hitting at a little moisture trying to make its way on shore, it just falls apart so once again there is 10 to 20 chance of a sprinkle in the northbay, that is it. No measurable rain in the forecast anytime soon. Nice weather this evening, temperatures on the 50s in the 51 degrees in livermore for the cool spot 50 degrees right now in oakland. We will drop down into the 40s for the most part by early tomorrow morning. With clearing skies by the pre sunrise hours, some spots could dip down into the 30s, not quite as chilly as the past couple of nights, another day of above average which is tomorrow. Low 60s along the coast, mid 60s for the south bay with upper 60s for the santa clara valley, mid 60s and the tri valley and at or at least near 70 degrees east of the diablo range. Mid 60s around the central bay and mid to upper 60s for the northbay and warm temperatures farther north in mendocino and lake counties and the above average temptress will continue into next week so we will have warm conditions and also increasing offshore wind in our neck of the woods by monday so we start the clock here monday, 2 00 in the morning so basically late sunday night, 2030 mile an hour gusts with even higher possible in the Higher Elevations and the wind will die down slightly, it will still be breezy throughout the day and that is a concern. Humidities will not be too bad, this is the most dangerous, nation if i weather but it will be breezy enough and at that point it will be warm and dry and asked that we are going to have to watch for an elevated fire threat early next week. Temperatures will stay above normal inland, by the bay and along the coast, all the way through next week and not a drop of rain in sight. Ill have an update coming up.

Just 100 days to mask, not forever, 100 days. And i think we will see a significant reduction. A partial win for churches fighting californias limits on indoor worship services. Supreme Court Ordered a lower federal courts to reexamine the restrictions. And the argument is the restrictions violate freedom of religion. That means there is a chance that they do remain in place for now. Coming up next, the Bay Area City Council race that was just decided by a single vote. You beat easier to be defeated by a larger margin. Quite honestly. It just boggles my mind and know that they are able to get our information. Another big bust involving unemployment fraud, the crew of alleged crooks now in custody in the south bay. But first, San Francisco maryland and breed finally responding tonight to that wine in just a few months, weve learned a lot more about the covid19 virus. Its real. And its dangerous.

The incumbent that he beat is hinting that she is not done giving them a razor thin margin. She may request a recount. What you make of that . I am gob smacked. If i were to be defeated it would be easier to be defeated by a larger margin, quite honestly. It has been an interesting experience, much like a metaphor for the National Vote tally. With much less consequence. Cox can request a recount within five days of the election. One vote. Better hope on your family members voted.
