Morning a lot colder than yesterday was. Heres your change over the past 24 hours nevado down 20 degrees from the same time yesterday napa down 16 degrees in santa rosa, a full 17 degrees cooler than where we were yesterday so its time for those winter jackets go ahead layer up and feel cozy as you are getting up to the roads to make your way into work. Your car, i know some people i do have leave, but i was just thinking, im jealous of all the people with the heated seats and a heated steering wells must be nice. Yeah, im not on that level must be a knife on mornings like this take a little extra time to warm up that car folks since its so cold out there were looking at the trip into San Francisco. So you need extra time to warm up the car you need extra time to sit in this line which killed all the way back be on west grand but. We like quiet and its been very quiet here in the bay bridge throughout the morning so no issues just a lot of crowding with folks heading back to work they were off yesterday and now were back at 13 minutes into San Francisco, a beautiful shot of the golden gate were traffic remains nice and smooth here its been trouble free throughout the morning, lets keep it that way i know thats hopeful thinking 20 minutes rolling south nevado to the toll plaza so the bay bridge is packed james and darya but the golden gate looks good. So expect some bridges a great summer crawl. Dont even just what i hear you say golden gate makes me dollars saying increase in that hole. The possible highlighted on find out and i have a feeling the north bay residents, you know who come to work in San Francisco are not going to be the happy about that much money, the possibility of workers being laid off yeah my heart because you dont want to see that happen again so thats a tough decision. Yeah following that story for sure. Thank you robin time now is 7 02 and the top story, parents and teachers are rallying this morning at santa clara county. There are protesting. Against a rush to reopen schools. Yeah, they dont want to do until its safe. They say schools are big reopen without proper say a proper safety precautions. On the story for us this morning is coppers reyna harvey shes in san jose with the latest good morning, friday morning, the teachers and parents okay have been out here this morning asking the district to make sure that teachers and educators and Staff Members are safe as well as the students now weve got a chance to hear from miss sarah gia karl, shes an occupational therapist. What the district will already back in the classroom. Some things this morning that you all are asking for. So the primary thing were asking for is what Additional Health and Safety Training that is more comprehensive for all our classrooms staff as well as people returning to the programs as well. The second thing were asking for is ensuring that theres adequate staffing in our classrooms that you have more students obviously we have a cost of one or 2 students we dont need as much stock but we have some concerns that have 7 students with autism and they are having difficulty both and keeping their students engaged in working with them while also implementing the necessary cleaning protocols. The 3rd thing were asking for is to continue to allow workers to telecommute we know that there are less than a 3rd of students returning in person to the cost of the have reopened means that even if we doubled our students not ratio that should still be opportunities for 3rd of the people to continue to work from we talked about how the students have been struggling a lot of them. Who are working from home, what are some of the concerns and you have for students that may be at home during this time. One of my students for example has autism its a challenge for him to attend to the screen to sit near the screen even standing at the screen many times on his mom tells hes standing behind the ipad today and so shes relaying the information that im giving him in trying to engage him. But its a its a big challenge for him as a reason in addition he doesnt fully understand why hes not getting on the bus and going to School Every Day and so he has become more the stress that the disruption in his routine. He started biting his hand hes getting more upset when hes at home. And so he needs to be in person and we understand that this is learning is a challenge for many of our students and we want them to be in percent. This family, his dad had a transplant recently his brother previously had open heart surgery, so theres a lot of risk in the home of covid19 we want to ensure that if he comes to school. Hes not going to get something at school and take it back to his family its not that you guys are asking for them to close schools and keep everyone home is that you want to make sure that the classroom is safe and educators that can be at home and do the working for a moment, they have high risk Family Members can do so yes thats correct we definitely want our students back in person we understand that they need to be but we believe that it could be done better than what were doing right now i would she said the Mckinley School and they are not opening until next year that School District. So kind of juxtapose here you know kind of what are your thoughts on School Districts. Now are keeping their kids home until next year. I think for general education students they generally can benefit from Distance Learning my daughters nearly 11 and she can handle being in front of the screen and doing her assignments for special education students of the little bit trickier which is one of the reasons why we place that the county has paid the priority on bringing students back in person. We opened our first classes for special education students on october 5th and have been opening additional classrooms every week since thank you so much for speaking with me all right, thank okay saw like you mentioned that just wrapped up that press conference here weve all soul. Reached out to the School District are waiting to back from them, but as you can see 2 completely different School Districts. One keeping their students at home until next year and the students and teachers, many of that are here today already back in their classrooms asking for more support and safety in our reporting here in san jose right in the kron 4 news the top on a tough decision and its really an uncertain time for different schools doing Different Things thank you reena. 7 06. Well the San Francisco unified School District is increasing its Testing Capacity just to make sure that even asymptomatic Staff Members alright den a fine and they receive the proper care. The district is partnering with the Biotech CompanyCurative Incorporated thats the Company Actually be providing these tests and that basically will make the district now the largest testing entity. In the entire city. The district is still preparing to start reopening schools in january thats the plan as it stands there working out the details right now regarding where the testing sites will be how the tests will be administered. Tracking the results and of course conducting Contact Tracing should that be necessary here have ocean of coronavirus cases all around the United States weve seen this trend in the past week and now were at an all time high with the country recall recording close to a 140,000 new cases on tuesday new hospitalization from covid reach more than 61,000. The u. S. Currently averaging 1600 new hospitalizations every day and this is all coming in to the covid tracking and as coronavirus cases rise in the north bay marine county now recommending that Indoor Dining be reduced. To just 25 at the moment its just voluntary. Theyre trying to get a better handle on this rise that theyre seeing here in coronavirus cases kron fours will tran joining us live from marin county with more on the story not mandatory for now well theyre hoping that just enough from restaurants and businesses will just comply voluntarily. Hopefully you can get it under control because if the state steps in it could be a little bit more severe as far as the duration of how long they could possibly be in the red tier which is an inconvenience towards the customers and it would cost the restaurants a lot of money so better do it yourself as far as whats going on they had it under control in midoctober where the state said its ok to go back to the orange here you might recall that it was red for quite some time and went back to the orange here and things are under co trol for quite some time. Then they saw the explosion in cases after the first week of november so went from like 9 daily cases to like 2223 cases and thats why theyre in jeopardy of going to the red tier which means that capacity will not be what it is currently this morning at 50 they want them to go back to 25 capacity and that stopped because it is cold these days and a lot of people would like to dine inside but inside means it could be possibly as super spreader area as far as covid19 is concerned weve got a chance to listen in some on some Health Officials in marin county. Heres what they had to say about scaling back. Food Service Workers correspondingly have the highest rates of covid19. In marin county and thats a pattern across the nation as well. There have been several super spreader events described from restaurants where an individual who may have infectious at that time not covering their faces theyre eating and drinking. The demolitions or and theres many gathered indoors. One case can lead to in some some descriptions of 20 other cases just from one. Once eating at a restaurant. Ok so heres the reason why and area im sure can attest to this its almost like the nc double a will step in and sanction use better that you as a university punish yourself and the reason being if you can get it under control now than maybe you wont get into the red or if you are then maybe wont last as long because under the states guideline if california steps in that means they will be in the red tier for at least 3 weeks as the state monitors the situation so thats why theyre asking the restaurants now to do it themselves or risk further consequences down the road i see people showing up right now and i will get reaction coming up at 8 o clock. Back to you. All right well, thank you very much. 7. 10 and today theres going to be free coronavirus testing in the south bay the tests are at Central Park Library on homestead road santa clara. From 9. 30 this morning until 3 in the afternoon. You dont have to have insurance but you do need an appointment and results are supposed to come back within 3 to 7 days.

So some pretty light totals coming in over the next 24 to 48 hours. This is great news because weve seen expanding Drought Conditions lately and now as rainfall approaches its actually going to leave its greatest mark on those areas in red which is the extreme drought category. These same areas are about to be the ones that see the most rain fall into the start of the weekend as for temperatures today should be any surprises here were back to very familiar territory.

We are checking back in on the bridges john because they are pretty active with some traffic commute traffic heading back to work this morning yesterday a lot of folks have the day off today. Theyre back and were seeing that busier traffic here like on 9 to 2 heading to the peninsula. This is your westbound drive and route 15 minutes and growing so little crowded here west of the toll plaza, but no major issues also no issues here from oakland to San Francisco at the bay bridge toll plaza stocked up from west grand but pretty decent drive for you across the upper deck were checking on highway 4 theres a crowd through pittsburg bay point thats normal 20 minutes antioch to concord a little sluggish for your emerging from to 42 on to 6. 80 there as you leave concord but no major trouble spots. Well check some more slowdowns and drive times coming up in just a bit back to you thanks a lot rob and 7. 18 and were talking a lot about coronavirus and about thanksgiving. Approaching and the 2 are not meeting at a very good time, no yeah, the cdc releasing some guidelines for the it appears a lot of traditions are probably going to be out of the question. So like you cant come to my house right familystyle meal where everybody passes the bulls in the plates do that dont cdc says dont pass the stuff thats number one Bridgette Bjorlo breaking down what the new guidelines are that you should follow. Its Health Experts with the cdc have it their way if youre people will be sitting around the dinner table this thanksgiving holiday as cases of coronavirus or across the u. S. The medical Community Fears that gatherings with friends and extended family will only drive infection rates up even further at a time of hospitals nationwide are becoming overwhelmed with an influx of new patients, im very worried about that because if we do get extended Families Together people from different households mixing together and if they are not social distancing and not Wearing Masks all the time. Then i think were guaranteed to see an increased rate of transmission and then a holiday like this is a recipe for disaster in terms of having a huge surge in the number of cases the cdc is urging americans to forgo tradition and live in holiDay Celebrations in members of your household also to refrain from traveling and if you must welcome extended guests to serve thanksgiving dinner outside. Making sure everyone wears a face mask and sit 6 feet apart, but we know that the virus is more concentrated indoors than outdoors so if feasible if the weather allows that it would be better to do this outdoors rather than any doors. And so you can you know for us in sacramento, for example, you might want to move thanksgiving Day Celebration to a lunch time when its warmer rather than doing that in a evening chief of pediatric Infectious Diseases at U C Davis Medical Center doctor dean blumberg says he typically postthanksgiving holiday in his Northern California home. But he decided not to this year for safety reasons and advises others to make a similar sacrifice. We love seen our extended family. And we made the difficult decision to cancel this year because of the risk of transmission. I think its important for everybody to act responsibly. So that you dont put yourself or someone you love increased risk of becoming infected. I think its been very difficult for all of us. But were all one community and i think we all need to contribute to stop the spread of disease. 7. 21 and for your money this morning americans are drinking more alcohol during this pandemic and a lot of hard seltzer is fueling the rise also disney will likely report a grim quarter for business today.

But i want to point out this is through Fremont South 6 ad admission south, new accident 2 lanes blocked are backed up about a mile or so leading up to the scene so keep that in mind for south 6. 80 and for my folks who vasco if youre coming from brentwood Discovery Bay and key take vasco to make it over to livermore and 5. 80 we have about 3 miles of slow traffic here southbound vasco before old vasco road. Injury accident still working crews on scene lots of heavy traffic. So it is crawling theyre vasco road but the rest of the trip.

It is a violation of norms the General Services administration typically provides Incoming Administrations with office space and Financial Resources to begin work the gsa said president elect trump and obama letters certifying their transitions hours after their projected wins both of those races did not see any major legal challenges, so far the gsa hasnt done the same for the Incoming Biden Administration theres going to be little bit of time here i think is the 14th of december by the 14th we should know democrat senator joe manchin says if the transition begins when the Electoral College certifies bidens when it should be enough time for a smooth transition, but he says many of the Trump Campaign lawsuits delaying the transition or frivolous they want congressional seats. They won senate seats they werent supposed to so you just cant because its all on one ballot. You cant just pick and choose and say that was from this is not what we have done before.
