Rob roth went to sonoma and napa counties to find out. Reporter napa and sonoma valleys or perhaps two of the biggest wedding capitals in the United States, and not even the coronavirus has been able to put a damper on that, at least not yet. This winery in st. Helena has booked 60 weddings between april and october this year, and while three brides and grooms have moved there dates to later in the season, none have canceled. The first one is in april in this courtyard. We are still anticipating that we will have a good wedding season. Event planners and Sonoma County also say all their weddings are still on, but they are talking to their clients about the coronavirus. We are letting people know that they should anticipate a reduction in headcount, not very significant, but there could be one. And all the vendors and the community are working together to make sure things will be properly sanitized. Well people are still booking weddings, the wineries are staying a huge drop off in Corporate Events. The april and may events are going away. They are looking back to august, september and october for rescheduling. The Corporate Events are saying we are prevented from traveling, most are corporate directed. The financial effects in the area are jawdropping. Not to mention losses at hotels and restaurants and potentially jobs. Still, life does go on, the coronavirus do not keep these people from the tasting rooms. Im definitely not changing my life. I came to wind taste and im having a great time. Its an area thats seen its share of wildfires and drought, and now a pandemic. We are heading for some rain this weekend, tomorrow looks like another nice day. Today we had warmth again, with some areas in the low 80s. Sacramento set a record at 81 degrees. The rain is behind me, to the south, and brought us a few showers, but its been lingering down there. With that, theyve done well on rainfall, we have not. But we will is the next system tees up to move into the bay area saturday afternoon, may day, Something Like that. So saturday looks wet for the second half of the day, sunday looks wet pretty much all day, and then monday and tuesday looks like theres some there too, so its all good in terms of rainfall. These are the current temperatures, sfo right now, you can see the fog out there, and tomorrow, a lot like today, not quite as warm because youve got a little bit of an onshore flow, so we didnt have that for the month of february. The winds were blowing offshore, but today on the coast temperatures in the 50s, thats kind of how you can tell if you have an offshore flow, when the temperatures on the costar in the 70s, it usually indicates they are coming toward the coast, but when its going off the water eight cools, much like it did today. So tomorrow, the sky will look like this, low clouds and fog in the morning, partly cloudy, partly sunny, all day. And then 60 in San Francisco, not 67 or 72 like last week. This low Pressure Center that brought rain to Southern California, its getting ready to drop out. That happens on saturday, then this low comes in, and this is a cold, core low, where you will see snow levels down to where it should be, 3500 feet. Probably when its all said and done they can see anywhere from 3 to 5 feet of snow. In the north, the big reservoirs like shasta and oroville will do well. So heres at the model, heres tomorrow afternoon,here is tomorrow night, and here comes saturday morning. You see that showers come through, saturday afternoon, and it just keeps going, its a wideopen pattern. So weve got a wet pattern coming up, and it starts this weekend. The forecast highs you will notice are certainly cooler than they have been. So get ready for winter to return, just drive safe, we are not used to having wet on the roadways. Coming up in sports, on the heels of the nba suspending their season, Major League Baseball has shut down spring training and will delay the start of opening day. Then on the 11 00 news, more firefighters testing positive for the coronavirus, the cleaning now underway at fire stations as dozens of firefighters are placed on leave. The best way to predict the future is to create it and change the world. Here at abbvie, were inventing medicines of the future. And happier, while making medicines that help people right now. Because thats the present we wanted to live in. And thats the future we all want to see. Abbvie. Here. Now. Mark is here now with whats been a very memorable week in sports history, just one thing after another. In the last 48 hours you can really say the landscape of American Team sports in particular as we know it, completely leveled. As of 6 00 today with that well at least we will have a little golf to watch over the weekend. Not so, the pga players championship is the last we will see of sports with any kind of a gallery or crowd on hand. Lets take a look at what was round one at the time, beautiful scenery down there in florida, the gallery was there. We were told during the final three rounds there would be no gallery, but plenty of golf to behold. Charlie hoffman at 8, must see that again. It just disappears, thats beautiful. Kim with a par 511, another incredible golf shot, 7 under 65, and the leader, 9 under 63, long putt at 9 15 million was the pot, and we are only four weeks away from the masters which may be the reason for the statement tonight that says basically for the next three weeks, no pga golf at this point. As the situation continues to rapidly change, the right thing to do for our players and fans is to pause. They are holding out hope that maybe the masters in augusta georgia in about four weeks from now can be held. Might be a longshot. So around noon today, you knew it was going to happen after the nba suspended operations. Last night all the other sports were going to have to follow, and that they did. Starting with majorleague baseball, its over in arizona and florida, spring training has ended. What they hope to be able to do, you can see the players they are, whatare hoping to do is start the regular season in about two weeks, which would mean, if you are counting for our local teams, april 9 for the openers. Obviously this situation is so fluid it can change at any moment. But at least the hope is that they will be able to play within a couple of weeks. At this point i think reality has really set him with the players about how important this really is. Some things are bigger than baseball, bigger than sports at the moment. Hopefully we can get a hold on some things and we can figure out when things can continue. In the nba of course they were the first to get a player diagnosed with this corona flow, and it is a situation that has evolved a little bit. Another player on the utah jazz has confirmed to have had the virus, donovan mitchell, in fact there absolute star player today confirmed that he is suffering from the coronavirus. He tested positive, and everybody is still talking about his teammate rudy gobert, lets see some footage of him greeting the press, its been well publicized that he was taking things lightly and some reports tonight say there is some definite rupture within that locker room right now, and they will need some time to heal as reportedly gobert took a very cavalier attitude toward the seriousness of this and he touched various teammates and their belongings with every intention of not conflicting any harm, but he took things too lightly. Adam silver made a statement tonight that gives you a little bit of an idea of the timeline that nba leaders are thinking about at this point. Two sort of full board meetings that i had yesterday and today, not one team raised money. The entire discussion was about safety and health of the players, the Community Around the nba and our fans. What we determined today is that this hiatus will be most likely, at least 30 days. Speaking of money, how about kevin love pledging 100,000, you see him pictured here, with the quicken loan arena workers to help out the cleveland franchise. 100,000, and i guess you can say with the league down for at least 30 days, you can hope that maybe some other players, these guys are highly compensated, that kevin love will start a trend and take care of the people who dont make millions of dollars and are going to basically be out of work for a long time.
