different ways that we're helping the public with this piece of legislation this was a targeted piece of legislation. it was because people need to help this was not really about coronavirus in terms

very latest hunting and what you can expect as you head out the door in the morning. >>yeah that's right jonathan and just see not an atmospheric river, but it is going to be a cold core storm that is going to be very unstable in nature, so it could bring us the threat of small hail pop-up thunderstorms with lightning that may also be detected in addition to light to moderate rain so let's track this storm hour by hour for you tonight live look outside in the east bay over berkeley, very dry clear calm conditions, but rain totals with this upcoming storm really peaking tuesday for wednesday expected to bring most of the bay area about half an inch to upwards of an inch of rain even higher amounts for local hills and mountains and we could see snow levels in our highest peaks with our local hills and mountains dropping to as low as 2000 feet just because it is a very cold core storm. so radar right now tracking very dry weather see some low clouds streaming through mainly along the coast and some high clouds overhead. but here's a look at our storm set to arrive in the coming days, we're going to notice a stray shower or 2 to start your work week monday, really impacting those of you in the northeast specifically in santa rosa overall monday is going to be a dry morning and afternoon but by monday night we're going to start to notice another stray shower making its way through the san francisco peninsula around 8 9 o'clock and then by around 10 o'clock. that's when we're going to notice some widespread light rain starting to make its way east into parts of the east bay for you but then drying out by monday night into early tuesday morning and that's when we're expected to see the bulk of the wet weather arriving shortly before your new lunch time hour and then it's really going to peak in intensity by around tuesday afternoon through tuesday night so that some are expected to get the biggest threat of pop-up thunderstorms if any lightning is detected as well it will pretty much happen by tuesday afternoon through tuesday night even through wednesday morning and there's a look at those snow levels dropping for those of you in mount hamilton. in the south bay but then by thursday morning. we're going to clear out and dry out from all of the wet weather so monday really just track about a 10th of an inch of rain or less slightly higher amounts for those of you in santa rosa. but then tuesday and wednesday when we get those light to moderate downpours we could see anywhere from 3 quarters of an inch to upwards of an inch of rain and then watch how the storm just kind of fizzles out the rain totals dropping significantly as it shifts south and east into the east bay valleys and south bay you can expect to see less than half an inch of rain but then after that no rain in sight even leading up to our 10 day outlook so really take advantage of tuesday and wednesday for those of you who love the wet weather because it looks like our march miracle. this may be it hopefully we get another shower or 2 by the end of march it happens that's it though usually get storms in april and may so we still have some chances but spring is right around the corner, so we'll have to wait and see all right we'll keep our fingers crossed thank you, yeah. >>thank you. >>former minneapolis police officer derek chauvin will appear in a courtroom on

way and those to you you can't miss the new year, the same color as the ball in all-star games right if you will if you walked outside right now you could lead you to just follow him there. >>we're show you the from tonight's all-star game a big day for warriors star stephon curry during the game. before the game. he was put on the show during the 3 shootout. it was a great it was a great game and a competition between him and mike conley coming down to the wire. >>jason up next. >>welcome to sports night live i'm jason dumas so we had a different feel to this year's all-star game, but it's still entertaining nonetheless. >>yes, it not quite what i think many were expecting i was surprised we haven't had a game right at all and then to condense it all the one d was definitely different format and then i was a struggling to keep up with the points scoring being there and playing to one 70 there are a lot of changes this year for sure it was overkill a little bit. >>yeah, it was just being honest with you and others over to a little bit but the show must go on you the almighty dollar runs things. >>yes, it does and people or entertain well many thought this game should not have happened including many guys who played in it tonight right >>there was a weird by going into a kind of like do i have to be here. do just like kylie mean i have to be at work right now so you might as well make it fun, let's go down for this year's all-star game in step with his usual pre-game kind of being up the thing with his head out i don't know about all that but he was ready to go from the jump steps if the corner 3 and turns around. we see him know that all the time is it's amazing this that his muscle memory. more from staff showing off from 37 feet beyond staff hit 4 threes in the 4. in the 1st quarter. then he gets the steal over his head. lebron bounce pass to the most boring all-star in nba history may be ready go based on team lebron wins the 1st quarter 45th 39 to 2nd quarter really had amazing game is not known as the shooter, but you couldn't tell tonight. he's doing his own staff turning around as he shoots now speaking of surprises staffed he's not known for his bounce but he catches the from chris paul after next time down court step returns the favor he finds cp 3 on the point guys having a blast out there you love to see it clock winding down staff. just like a layup. so amazing to watch that in the 3rd the bank is open free on us like he's trying to mimic steph. >>get this 16 for 16 from the floor 35 points and of the 3rd donovan mitchell another one of those quote unquote disrespected jazz players. he has been job but. >>it was all team lebron at this point. the 4th quarter steph still high. this time he nailed another 3 this time on the left wing. cash money right there hot official grief yet 8 threes and brown we need 3 points in oakland got comes through in the clutch shot all the time morning feet game time cap and kevin is watch the honest when the kobe bryant mvp award. this was the first time it was honored for kobe bryant after his passing. greased up their team lebron the first a 170 they take every quarter and earned one 0.2 5 million dollars for the thurgood marshall college fund which benefits historically black colleges. good for them. >>yeah it was quite the game to jason what were your biggest take away staff is really good. yeah. dan miller is merely getting honest, i feel like those are the 3 best players. of the night stephany on us. you know just served as another reminder that steph is amongst the greatest players alive. i say he's top 5. >>yeah, i was a little bit bummed that we didn't get to see joel and the go out there and compete, he's you know the big one right now as an mvp candidate a lot of people are talking about he was one of the 2 players who was scratched because of covid-19 protocol so that was a little bit disappointing. i was curious to see you know how he would fare with the other all-stars yeah of course had to be 2 they yeah, of course and it was before they travel least that's the good they got backs. >>and. >>they're barbara tested positive. but since then ben simmons and joel embiid had tested negative for covid so i think they have to go 3 straight negative tests what you have some exposure. their first game after the all-star break is on the thursday, so i'm not sure their status is still up in the air what matters most is that they're healthy eating it sake the barber apparently isn't showing symptoms to flats good news will be okay, yeah, you know it's all we've got to keep it in perspective, but yeah, i mean that's the stuff that can happen because this game while it was entertaining fun for fans is completely a mess. it was an essay do that yes and during a pandemic you have to question doing things that are unnecessary that bring people together from. >>different states different teams to one i mean a lot of the players voiced their concerns about it beforehand the decided to move forward anyway, and at least we got to see in a show from staff so not going to play about that he actually finished with 28 points 8 of 16 from 3 point range, but again, no surprise staff. the greatest shooter of all time i'm going on a limb and saying yeah and i like we just saw it a shot of stephon lebron you know, yeah least going against one another it was a cool refreshing thing to see them. >>with each other and same thing we on us, you games are really the perfect setting for his skill set 16 for 1635 points, 7 boards. i mean i was happy you know this guy runs like a deer he call of the center as athletic as a and when his when he's hitting perimeter shot there's nothing you can do. i mean it doesn't come on off and that's kind of been his achilles heel. in the playoffs over the past couple years but of course he's a fun player and for a while and warriors fans thought they were going to get him i you know i thought delusional and yeah i was just going out to be right if i have an aid warriors fans, the warriors got kevin duran that's like a once in a lifetime so they're we can get this guy that doesn't happen like that you don't you don't strike gold more than 1 million per from the you know you on this will be a buck for florida from foreseeable future. >>yeah i will say it is kind of to see the team's mixed up, i know we're just talking about typically are in many years past it was the east versus the west sea never got to see lebron staff team up you would never seen otherwise staff and honest team up so it's kind interesting to see a little bit of a different mix of players i enjoyed that aspect know you get to see the best in the world play with people you would never see him play yeah and something also different is that everything took place on the same night, the skills competition took place tonight as well as the game with the slam dunk contest happening at halftime and 3 point contest happening before the game cell. yeah kind of interesting and of course we all know that steph curry went into this one is a favorite when it comes to 3 pointers i mean who wants to take on the best shooter of all time. i mean i guess they could compete for second place and the broadcasters were joking before it even started so first round step actually missed his first 2 shots but as you can see he got completely red-hot from they're making 9 straight after that and burying all 5 of his shots in the final rack and curry has the high score 31 to easily advance to the finals against michael connelly and in the final round staff makes both of the 3 point mountain dew from 29 feet 9 inches and then the last shot right there. yeah, i was and then he had to be to win it all he had the nice follow through and staff is pumped. it was a great competition, but it can't take down stephon 3 pointers the trophy back where it belongs with the splash brother himself i know that he gave little shout out to klay thompson as well as other splash brother who wishes could be there. to put on a show of course although kudos to calmly for giving a run for his money step for you right there, you know he's the last best shooter on earth like you said, and i think. >>i think we have some sound from staff after he winning that just talking about today to 3 point contest. >>and the game is such a weird state that was off target this year. >>it was have a you know everything in one night was different, it was nice to have all the guys who are here in on the court supporting each other try to bring some energy and have fun reports you know as i was you know congressman the last track and having fun with that get the job done to win some good shoot during the game we're successful we're in great experience we have put a locked room job to the new format with the all-star game next an imagine conferences, you know he's in the west know it's google is bound to happen we had a great obviously representing him as a captain katie and and we've got to win service. night for sure. >>i saw before you know before we get to break i saw a instagram post after the the festivities is from i should carry who now he's all mine for some quality you guys about what 3 days and then you have to get back to work you know steph didn't really get much of an all-star break but i guess we'll get some quality time with his coming up though we have highlights for the slam dunk contests. >>it was okay, but i love you guys at home have your own opinions that kid jumped pretty high, though we'll give him a little bit of credit also a top notch designer who's the mastermind behind some of the warriors threads talks with jason about the inspiration behind >>welcome back to sports night live island is usually saturday night they do all the skill, yeah titian's and you know posted at washington but obviously the life of covid they're switching everything up so we've got a nice halftime pointing out that elise it kept things interesting and a half time versus you know like cat walking on a tight rope or something that literally has been played at halftime warriors game. >>but tonight it did not disappoint unless you're jason you're expecting more from the slam dunk contest but some incredible athleticism in serious hops on display in the nba slam dunk contest this year featured some young talent too. knicks rookie obi toppin junior, setting up his teammate julius randle and his street ball legend father obi toppin senior near the rim. now check this out. he layups up over both of them and gets the slam let's take another look at this thing of beauty goes the dynamite now it's up to anfernee simmons simons rather to close it out and this dunk right here would do it he leaps up. sales it with a kiss right at the rim. let's take a closer look here love it here. yeah, the hair blowing in the breeze and yeah he really just parker's right up to the rim trail blazers anfernee simons wins and is your 2021. slam dunk champion, but jason you already alluded to your thoughts about this what did you think about the dogs themselves, you know i thought >>it kind the bus killing the beginning because i thought caches stanley the kid from the pacers had an amazing docking got like a 44 yeah, the first one out the gate nine's an eight-year solos i don't know. i miss the days of like vince carter is a greedy i some around but aaron gordon who he had some great dunk contests he hails from san jose and mean so being on a couple times he had some nice ones i thought this year didn't quite have the star power of years past and just felt like something was missing probably because at halftime yeah also game now. not complaining, but yeah, it was entertainment will already sports are in hip-hop culture have always been intertwined even more so with the emergence of social media, some of the most talented artists and designers in the world have platforms to connect with athletes and sports leagues. >>and one of those talented designers just so happens. the hail from oakland, meet dustin candyland. i'm joined by a very special guest dustin kanell and he's a designer he's
