So, still, fairly warm even with this rain and we will catch a break, once again, this afternoon. But thats ahead of the next heavy round of rain. Ill detail that and what to expect as we go through the rest of the week. Thats coming up. Lets see whats happening on those roads now with mike.

The winner of the short straw this morning is Stephanie Chuang. The down pour a lot of floods this morning. Flooding and ponding. Yeah, thats right, scott.

Something to keep in mind as youre getting ready for your morning commute. Its going to be wet out there and going to be cold. I wish i actually had some gloves. But the good thing about the series of storms coming in today, tomorrow and the next day is that there is no forecast of major flooding in our rivers. However, flooding is going to be of concern and the days and months to come, especially here in the south bay. In places like the San Francisco creek that runs from palo alto and thats why during the dry months, the Santa Clara Valley Water District spent those days and weeks to clear up those creeks and shore up the size of those waterways to be prepared for this el nino winter. But in spite of that work to be done, theres still were not totally ready. Weve done a lot with sandbags. We just approved over 1 million extra for sandbags.

Good morning. Good morning. The heaviest rain now falling around San Francisco and farther to the south. The north bay hasnt seen as much rain, but this will be rolling to the north as we go through the rest of the morning. Now, we do see some of the bright yellows and reds moving closer to fremont at this point and with all of this moving off towards the north and east, we will see some of the heavier rain moving towards sunol in the next 20 minutes and pleasanton about 30 minutes and livermore also looking at some very heavy rain coming up around 5 45. And the rainfall will continue for the next few hours. At times quite heavy and this is 9 00. There still will be heavy downpours for the peninsula and parts of the south bay. And then that moves into the east bay by about 10 00. There will be some breaks in the clouds and maybe even a little bit of clearing in time for lunch. But still some spotty light rain will be coming down as we go through the day and much more of a break this evening before the next round of rain moves in and look at the rainfall totals were expecting just with the rain today over 1. 25 in some spots like union city. Well give you an update on what to expect as we go through inrest ithe rest of the week and also a look at the commute with mike. Why we place our cameras where we do because we have locations that are very busy like this. Eastbound 80 this is just north of that berkeley curve. Folks here coming away from the toll plaza itself and there is that car fire. Now, just seconds ago, this was fully on flame here. It was engulfed in flames and now the fire crews arrived on scene and now a lot of smoke and just starting to clear a little bit. Westbound your commute towards the berkeley curve really getti getting jammed up as you see that smoke. Coming past the mall and Movie Theater at emoryville. This just happened a few seconds ago. This change in the flow of traffic and, of course, just doused that fire. Were tracking that and any reports of injuries. Well let you know there. Meanwhile back to san jose where the other crash happened in front of our camera. Chp arrived and laid out the flares just north of the 680 interchange. A very busy place and now causing a bit of slowing and all that rain actively coming down in both of these shots. Less of an opportunity to react because you have to be more gentle with the controls. So, theres 101, as well. As you look at your map, a good dousing on the roadways. Blue where there is ponding and puddling and a number of spinouts reported throughout the south bay in the last few minutes and well track that and so far no freeway closures. Just a couple of lanes affected here and there. Back to you. Well be checking back with you a lot. Coming up, changing the nations gun laws. The president will lay out a plan on gun control, but is it constitutional . The strong opposition hes facing. That sound. Like nails on a chalkboard. But listen to this family talking thats a different kind of sound. The sound of the weekend. Unleash the power of dough. Give it a pop. Its always worth remembering. That icing the Cinnamon Rolls is a privilege not a right. Unleash the power of dough. Give it a pop. Plans to formally announce hes going to use his oval office happening today president obama plans to formally announce hell use his ooval Office Powers to change gun laws this despite the fact that there is fierce opposition republicans. Today in the bay kris sanchez has more on what were learning about the president s plans and this centers on background checks. Mainly on that loophole that allows people to buy guns at gun shows without getting a background check. Todays formal announcement comes the president gets coni r confirmation from the fbi director that the executive order is constitutional. A move to require all businesses that sell guns to obtain a federal license would also affect online gun sellers. It would also require that dealers have to notify police if a gun is lost or stolen in transit. Republicans say the president is gutting the Second Amendment right to bear arms. It is not going to prevent every mass shooting and keep every gun of the hands of a criminal. It will potentially save lives. We dont beat the bad guys by taking away our guns. We beat the bad guys by using our guns. The president has not even attempted to point to a single mass shooting. These actions he would propose because there isnt one. I always like to see these things in writing. Here they are for you. The president also proposing to modernize the background check process and streamline it and hire more fbi and alcohol, tobacco and firearm atf agents. The president also wants to research smarter Gun Technology to reduce the number of accidental shootings. And the president also wants to allocate 500 million towards improving Mental Health care. While the president can go at that background check opponent alone, he does need congressional approval for any part of that plan that does include funding. The president will make his announcement at 8 40 our time this morning. We will carry it live for you. Scott and laura.

And here in the bay area, the heaviest rain is now moving in with the second round of storms for the week. Yesterday was pretty light, but this one is a little bit stronger with some heavier rain and we can see even by the intensity of the bright colors oon the radar where the heaviest rain is coming down now. Havent seen any lightning strikes, at least not cloud to ground. That is detected by our radar. Going to gilroy to morgan hill. You can see some heavy rain now there and anywhere from los gatos to Mountain View and san jose up to fremont we have do downpours coming down at this point, too, causing some water to start ponding on those streets and then heading from fremont up to oakland and you see the bright yellows and reds there and then gets a little bit more green indicating that the rain is not as heavy from oakland over towards concord and san ramon also seeing some green shades on the radar. Fairfield, as well as novato and seeing some light rain and then as you head farther to the north bay and farther north, well, there is not as much rain at this point.

Crews on the scene putting that fire out, a crash and then a fire in that car, which was containing some sort of cleaning fluids. Were told that by the person that was driving that car. Lets geet the present scene. Thats the good news because that person made it out of the car without any injury. Ill step into your shot. This is the live shot over here on the east shore freeway. Westbound towards the bay bridge, that is your commute direction but slows as youre eastbound which is down to one lane. There is the burnt out shell of the car that was in that crash. The fire is out. Were hearing no injuries as a result of all this activity but a lot of slowing getting away from the bay bridge right in front of that dennys and the ross in front of the mall and the Movie Theaters that youre passing by emoryville and not showing impact on the Speed Sensors and the commute towards the span. Again, watch the blue puddling and ponding and your usual suspects some flooding and couple lanes there. San jose more than a couple lanes and the rain actively falling and this crash north 101 and flares put out by the rain and still activity.

And when you see the bright yellows and reds, that shows the most intense rain. Green show more of a moderate downpour and the heaviest rain moving into san jose. That will continue to move off to the east we go into the next few minutes. Temperatures are mild now in the lower 50s. Well reach into the upper 50s as we go through the day.

Ill detail all of that and what to expect as you head out the door. Lets see how it looks on the roadways now with mike. Kari, the conditions as youre talking about are horrible out there for driving. The rain actively falling in our san jose shot and two tow trucks arrived a few minutes ago. North 01 just north of 680. Showing all the traffic jamming up at the scene for spectator slowing and keeping one clear for safety sake. What were looking at nothing more than the slowing throughout the south bay. Weal get another live look out here for another crash in front of another camera and eastbound 80 getting away from the bay bridge and five lanes shifting over to one getting away from the bridge. Thats the biggest jam away from the berkeley curve because heading towards the bay bridge youre slowing a bit towards powell and easing up towards the berkeley curve and the toll plaza. This is the scene of a crash and car fire. They continue to remove cars from the area and look at the bay bridge. A lighter flow of traffic getting here because of that spectator slowing and folks are easing into this mornings commute. Ill hand it back to you guys. Thats right. Live right now to today in the bay Stephanie Chuang back in marin county as this latest system is barreling through there, steph. Thats right, laura. The rain has been steady here for hours and thats why water is pooling here at lucky drive off of 101 northbound. You can see this vehicle slowed down quite a bit before going through because this is a notorious stretch of roadway for the flooding in the middle lanes particularly bad. The 911 calls and chp on roadway flooding and collision has been nonstop, really, since early this morning. The chp says there is a bout of wet weather. Down in San Francisco, the rain has hitting pretty hard overnight, as well. The usual spots starting to see puddles.

Be alert this morning and this week. Here in marin county, Stephanie Chuang. Lets go to bob redell in Santa Cruz Mountains. Bob . Good morning to you, scott. Here on the summit headlights heading southbound over 17 into the Santa Clara Valley. You can see its definitely coming down here. This is what you can expect on your morning commute. We dont have reports of flooding or significant flooding on the roads but that is certainly a possibility today, tomorrow, a possibility of urban flooding. Fortunately, we dont expect enough rain to cause major flooding in the rivers. But as the winter season continues on with this el nino pattern, its quite possible you could see some significant flooding, especially as you head up 101 in the south bay. Palo alto below the flood line. In a bad flood like we had in 1998, people could lose their lives. And that was a board member with the Santa Clara Valley Water District. Right now were looking at a bulldozer shoring up part of the creek in san jose. This is some of the type of work that the district has been performing during the dry months in the weeks and months leading up to the rainy season that were in right now. Even in spite of the work theyve been doing, they still have to try to get more sandbags out there. They got about a Million Dollars allocated for that. So while theyve been trying to get ready, still some thing that need to be done. If youre driving into work today, you want to watch your speed and watch the distance between you and the car in front of you as chp would always remind you, again, these roads are very wet.

In just a few hours president obama will announce executive action to do just that. Chris san chazz has more on the plan. The first change deals with more background checks. More background checks and the way we do background checks, as well. The president wants to close the loophole that allows people to buy guns at gun shows without a background check. Todays formal announcement comes after the president got confirmation that this executive order is, in fact, constitutional. The move to require all businesses that sell guns to obtain a federal license would also affect online gun sellers. It would also require that dealers notify police if a gun is lost or stolen in transit. Republicans say the president is essentially gutting the Second Amendment right to bear arms. Its not going to prevent every mass shooting and its not going to keep every gun out of the hands of a criminal. And it will potentially save lives. We dont beat the bad guy by taking away our guns. We beat the bad guys by using our guns. The president has not even attempted to point to sangal mass shooting. These actions he would have prevented because there isnt one. The president s announcement is expected to also include modernizing background check processes. Also hiring more fbi and alcohol, tobacco and firetarm agents.

Everybody issing about the big storms hitting the bay area. We have a series of them and tracking them, kari hall. Good morning. Heavy rain moving through now. We will start to see this taper off as we go into the next couple of hours but really coming down anding some flooding. Some street flooding in some spots as the yellows and the reds here on the radar move off to the east. We will have a little bit of a break as we go into the rest of the morning. But you can see it is still heavy from gilroy to morgan hill and then as you head farther to the north in san jose, thats where were getting the worst of it. Also moving up towards fremont. The peninsula seeing a few spots with the brakes like san mateo getting heavy rain and head south of there and not as heavy. Over towards san ramon youre about to have heavy rain moving into your area. We go into the 7 00 or 8 00 hour and the rain becomes more spotty and then this morning we will have some breaks. We will have several hours to dry out in many spots and we will need it as we get ready for the next storm system cyst to m late tonight and by this time tomorrow morning more of the same weather with heavy downpours and the possibility of some flooding in some of those usual spots. Well talk more about that and a look ahead for the rest of the week. Thats coming up in a few minutes. Mike is giving us an update on the commute. Lots of activity out there, kari. Thankfully no major injuries but this is the improvement of the east shore freeway. Westbound your commute moves well flowing right around powell because of the distraction eastbound getting away from the berkeley curve. Were now have three lanes oep heading away from the bay bridge. Clear from the maze to powell and clearing once you pass that dennys sign right there. That is your approach to the bay bridge and lets look at your maps. You dont see a lot of slowing other than that other than at the caldecott tunnel. The blue is puddling, ponding and flooding and usual suspects around the east bay and peninsula. The freeways are open but really getting impacted as the cars start to build throughout and look at all these little crashes reported around san jose and focus on this one in front of the live camera and one tow truck on the scene and a couple vehicles there north 101 north of 680. This could not be a pleasant situation. Look how hard these folks are driving out there. Give them a little space like these folks are keep them calmer with the cars moving by. Thanks a lot, mike. Drivers may have to dig a little deeper to cover parking meter costs. Because the city has to cover a 6 hole. San franciscos mta last year approved a small debit and credit card transaction fee for smart meters. But Credit Card Companies argued it violated merchant rules. To cover the unexpected gap in the budget, the mta is now considering a 25 cent per hour increase for anyone who parks at a meter. That vote is expected to happen today. 5 40. Coming up on the move. The raiders take a big step towards moving back to southern california. What needs to make happen to ma a reality. To find out why your baby is crying, there is an app for that. Find out how it works next. The raiders officially have one foot out the door. In a late night move the t well, the raiders officially have a foot out the door a latenight move. The team took a major step towards leaving the bay area. As we have exmected for month the team did file paperwork to relocate to southern california. The raiders along with the rams and chargers all submitted applications to relocate to los angeles. The next step now is for the league to review those proposals, followed by an owners meeting. This is all slated for next week. If approved, the move could be effective with the upcoming 2016 season. They had submitted a relocationage and the matter is now in the hands of the nfl owners. The latest action from the team was expected, it still stings for fans. I dont think its fair because how are you going to take somebodys Favorite Team and try to move them to like l. A. Im really disappointed because, you know, its just a wonderful, fun team to watch and ive had season tickets for seven years with a lady friend of mine and it was like the most fun i ever had. Now, we should note the relocation of a team does require approval of threequarters from the other nfl owners. It is 5 44 now. To turmoil for a different Bay Area Team saying hes not a football expert. Jed faced the media to explain why he fired the teams head coach for the second consecutive year. A season like this ages you. I think i lost a little bit more hair. Beyond that, i was able to recognize mistakes that ive made in the past. The 49ers fan base is angry. Just three seasons ago, the team was playing in the super bowl. Now in contective seasons york has fired the head coach and the niners have not made the playoffs. I hear the criticism, loudly. Whether thats talking to fans directly or that social media or from planes flying over my head. The results of the season rest on my shoulders squarely. A short list of head coaching candidates, but would not say who is on that list and on rumors of his family possibly selling the team, he says his family owned the 49ers before he was born and will still own it after hes gone. 5 46. Happening today an emergency hearing scheduled in as youth soccer takes on the nfl. The organization has filed a lawsuit to stop the city of santa clara to stop using the practice field. Now that lawsuit has expanded to include the National Football league, but, nonetheless, the nfl started work yesterday on the media center yesterday right on the soccer grounds anyway. The santa clara youth soccer says the nfl will destroy the fields. The league has promised to make repairs after the super bowl. Its 5 46 right now. Happening today in the east bay. The hugely controversial proposals to start permanently listing rent increases in alameda. The last time the Alameda City Council considered the issue it got violent. Police arrested two in a meeting that lasted seven hours. In fact, so many people are expected at tonights meeting it has been moved to an oauditoriu. The council will consider three proposals. All involved some sort of an exof a moratorium on rent increases. They also each impose a varying degree of rent control in alamedas landlords. This includes preventing evictions without socalled just cause. Recognized four new element. Scientists add Lawrence Livermore lab discovered three of them. The elements have yet to be officially named and their numbers 113, 114, 115 and 118 if youre keeping track at home. The elements created artificially and only last for an incredibly short time and theyre not find in nature. You find this in new households with babies and can you figure out how that newborn is now crying. Believe it or not, there is now an app for that. It is called the baby cry translator. The app is designed from a database of 200,000 baby cries. It can apparently identify for parents one of four reasons why their baby is crying. So, what do you think those four reasons are, parents . Come on, you know it. Hungry, tired, pain or wet diaper. Some doctors cry foul saying parents should not take this app too seriously. You have to listen to your response of your kid. Their cry is a communication. Its their talking. Their babbling is their discussion. To take your movement away from learning about what they are and being sensitized to their needs, i dont like it. Before you head to the app store t will cost you. The other catch is your baby has to cry for 15 seconds before the app renders its verdict. My kids are a long way from being babies and i have to admit even now i have to not watch little babies cry and try to figure it out and help them. I love it. I love it. I like when he stops, too. Right. Fussing over the weather this morning. A lot of people are crying as you head out and have to deal with the traffic and the downpours and just getting wet and bad hair days. All of that stuff. As we take a live look outside now at the Golden Gate Bridge. You can see that the rain is coming down sideways. But at least theres no backups there. But just need to slow it down. Look at how much rain is falling now for parts of the south bay and the east bay. Moving out of the peninsula now as we start to catch a little bit of a break there, but a closer look at San Francisco, its drying up. At least for now in some parts of the city. But head over to the east bay, it is looking bad. If youre driving from fremont and then up 880, well, it will improve. Look at the north bay. Barely anything going on there. So, as we go through the rest of the morning, well continue to add more rainfall in the buckets that weve already had. Over an inch of rain in sonoma and napa and novato and a look at San Francisco now. About half of an inch up to 075 and then as we go over towards the east bay, about 0. 5 in some spots and some spots like danville over 0. 75 there and in the peninsula also heavy downpours starting to rack up about 0. 75 and over an inch of rain and, once again, this is just with the second round of rain moving through this week. Were expecting four in total. As we take a look at the south bay, we have over an inch of rain in los gatos and willow glen and over 0. 5 and the heaviest rain moving through this morning and then some breaks later today. As we start to see the skies clearing up around the eavening commute, the sun peeking out and then this is a look at tomorrow morning as you head out this early, once again, it looks pretty wet and some heavy downpours. Possibly a few spots with some street flooding and the usual spots will be watching that for today and the next several days. So, lets see how it looks as you head out the door now with mike. All right, kari, first of all, looks soupy out here. A live look at 101. The better news is that these folks are looking like theyre just about to hook up that remaining vehicle with a tow truck and pull it out of the area. Chp and this is north 101 just north of 680. Look at this jammed traffic because we have one, maybe two lanes blocked at the worst point of it as youre heading north. Thats right there. That is the worst of the south bay drive right now. Folks are easing into this very rainy mute and i know its not even 6 00 yet. This is a lighter flow than we tip see on a tuesday. Look at the blue highlighting. Ponding and puddling like you saw on that live shot. Crashes around Silicon Valley and the last one in front of our live shot will hopefully clear soon. The rain travel across the from the peninsula over to the east bay. 101, 280, 880, 580. All flooded with roadway water but were having no lane flooding and as far as closures go coming up through the oakland area. Live look over here shows you eastbound 80 and both directions from the berkeley curve are now clear. The bay bridge toll plaza have the backup formed. Back to you. Thank you, mike. Scary moments unfolding in turkey. Watch as chunks of snow coming down on a busy street. This happened in the black sea. Take another look. People walking by and then just an avalanche in the city street. This came sliding down off the roof of a mosque. Two people were trapped but everybody acted quickly and got them out and, fortunately, nobody was seriously hurt. Pretty tremendous video. Take a look at this. Crews in utah received a thank you for from a dog they rescued after it fell into a frozen pond. Poor little tucker fell through the thin ice being walked yesterday in clinton.

They say the early investigation points to arson. Less than three hours from now, president obama will address the nation outlying his plan to tighten gun laws across the country without congress. Its not going to prevent every mass shooting. Its not going to every gun out of the hands of a criminal. It will potentially save lives. Now, the president s executive order will partially close some of the gun show loopholes requiring people who buy weapons at those shows to get background checks. Some republican president ial candidates are criticizing the move calling it a violation of the Second Amendment. But congressman Mike Thompson who chairs the House Gun Prevention Task force says inaction by those republicans, in his words, forced the president to act. Dont have any problems select committees to try to tarnish the record of secretary of state clinton or harass planned parenthood. But on gun violence, they wont touch it and Congress Wont act. I think the president needs to. President obamas executive action limiting gun rights will restrict our lawabiding citizens. Not the criminals or the terrorists who target them. Now, much like the president s unilateral move on immigration. There is question to whether this is constitutional. The president wants to widen background checks, can expand them to every gun sale without action by congress and hell need congressional approval for the addition of 200 new atf agents in the plan and a 500,000 for Mental Health care.
