Abc 7 News Reporter Cornell Bernard has the not so jolly story. Its important for everyones health that we give the gift of clean air this season. Reporter its a very smoggy holiday across the bay area. Air quality Officials Say dont even think of using your fireplace Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Spare the air alerts have been called. We have no wind. We have no rain. And unfortunately, its just capping all of our bad air quality and keeping it right here in the bay area. Everyone wants clean air, but breaking tradition without a fire on christmas is a tough sell. Its christmas. We have a bunch of clean air regulations. We could let that slide of all things. Reporter air quality officials get a lot of complaints. Here are just a few they have received on their website. You people make me sick. Its christmas. People light fires. And there is this one. You socialists, you want to control everyone, followed by an expletive. People are angry. They feel like there is a tradition to burn on christmas. But people need to breathe. Martha agrees. If you go out there and try to do some type of walk organize exercise like im trying to do, im having a hard time breathing. So you know what . We need to spare the air. A dramatic drop in firewood sale, definitely. Firewood is gathering guest in bernal heights. Gas fireplaces are hot sellers at warm solutions. Gas inserts are the way people are going now. People are afraid to make an investment in wood burning because of the spare the air days. Gas fireplaces can run from 3,000 to 5,000. But if youre caught burning wood on a spare the air day, its a 100 fine. 500 if it happens again. In San Francisco, Cornell Bernard, abc 7 news. So how bad is the air going to be . Meteorologist sandhya patel is here with live doppler 7 hd. Its a shame to spare the air on christmas, but thats the way it goes, i guess. Absolutely, dan. I wish it could have been another day. But i cant tell you that because of the stagnant weather pattern. As you look at live doppler 7 hd, cloudy skies are clear right now. And i do want to show you the conditions as we look across the bay from the east bay hills camera. Air quality not so good. It is expected to be actually unhealthy in the santa clara valley, pour across the rest of the bay areas. So no wood burning is allowed right on through tomorrow. And one of the reasons for this is High Pressure offshore flow. Its a down sloping wind that is continuing to even the pollutants trapped near the surface. We dont have the ocean breeze. Today Moffett Field 71. San rafael 66. Gilroy tied its record at 72. And we have plenty of 60s and 70s. Unseasonably mild for this time of the year. More records are likely as we head into Christmas Day. And dont you worry. Im not just tracking the weather. Im tracking santas whereabouts. Ill be back with a look at that in just a few minutes. Dan . I want to know where he is now. Sandh sandhya, thanks very much.

Its too late to order a gift online. So this is where shoppers must turn to insure a present is under the tree in the morning. Surprisingly, some shoppers will wire. Ive been to the mall for the last five days. Youve been shopping for five straight days. Yes, i have. And youre still not done . Nope. More to do. If excuses abound for procrastination, the economy was cited by many. Were more busy this year because of the pickup in the economy. So normally i would have had my shop dung by now. Nationwide retail analysts say instore shopping has taken a hit this year as more people take advantage of ordering online, often with free delivery. However, inperson shopping still generates the majority of the 602 billion expected to be spent. The key has been discounts. Some shoppers just wont spend unless they get a good deal. Yeah, im actually finding really good deals today. I found a whole bunch at macys. Im pretty happy right now. 20 off or better . 20 off. And then 50 off on some other items too. Some items seem to be discount in order than others. Especially childrens toys and things like that and movies. And anything to do with christmas. Is really marked down pretty good. Linda from soledad bought a lot of chocolate. If i buy one, get half off the second one. Its a great deal. Gift cards remain popular on Christmas Eve, partly out of desperation, but also because they stretch buying power. The big question is whether some of the markdowns will be this good after christmas.

Organizers are hoping to collect more than 10,000 toys for kids who may otherwise not get a present for christmas. When a kid gets a toy for christmas, it gives them some hope and stuff.

San Francisco Police and firefighters will distribute donated toys tomorrow. And San Francisco firefighters joined forces with santa to gather toys today.

Reporter the holidays were always a happy time at frank and janet rossinis house until they lost their daughter carolyn. Carolyn was killed by a drunk driver two years ago. And we havent been able to celebrate christmas. We havent been able to put up a tree or listen to music. Its just its just been hard. Reporter carolyn left behind a husband, three kids, and these, a pair of ceramic garden gnomes she made for her dad when she was 8 years old. And they were special to me. Actually, she gave them to me as a christmas present. Reporter they live happily on the lawn until they were stolen. Frank put out a sign asking for their return, but no luck. We havent heard a word. I thought oh, well, its been over a month. Theyre gone. I thought it was dead issue. But they just showed up . Yeah, this morning. They were hoping for a christmas miracle, but it arrive on Christmas Eve. Frank was reading the morning paper when he looked outside and couldnt believe what he saw. The gnomes were standing there behind the sign, looking at me. And i said no way he carefully returned them to their rightful places. Back in here like that. And wasted no time making a new sign. It reads our faith in humanity is restored. And i said god bless them, because i believe that god had a lot to do with this. But janet thinks someone else played a role, someone who has been watching over her family and wanted them to have christmas again. When they showed up this year, i think it was like carolyn saying, look, get on with life, enjoy yourselves. And i got out the Christmas Music and put it on. And were back. In concord, Jonathan Bloom born is the sing of israel abc 7 news. Nice ending to that story. And a happy reunion in San Francisco just in time for christmas. 2monthold kitten arizona was reunited with the nibbler family late today. The family was excited to adopt the female kitten from the San Francisco Animal Control Center and bring her home for the holidays. But before they do this, could do that, rather, arizona was stolen. Whoever did it has not been caught. She was found last week at a Residential Hotel south of market. The first order of business the nibblers say theyre going to do is rename the cat to storm. Which is something we need around here, but were not going to get one. Sandhya patel is here with the christmas forecast. At least smooth sailing for santa tonight. Absolutely. Since i have no storms to track, im tracking santa tonight. And good bicycle weather tomorrow and all the rest of it. Absolutely. Scooter weather. I know dan wants a scooter for christmas. A lot of kids are actually up tonight. Keep your fingers crossed. And if they are watching right now, wondering where santa, lets go right to where he is. He left the north pole quite some time ago.

Hilltop winds have begun to pick up. Take a look right now. Gusting to about 30 Miles Per Hour in the east bay. 24 Miles Per Hour knoxville creek. Notice the direction of the wind, though. It is coming out of the northeast. Thats what brought us a record temperatures, unseasonably warm weather. But this is actually concerning, because it is a drying wind. It will dry out the air mass some more. And we havent had much rain. So there are fire concerns as we head towards the rest of this week, which includes Christmas Day. So just keep that in mind.

Well, just ahead here tonight, 7 on your sides Michael Finney delivers an important Christmas Gift to a group of people who lost sending a letter to santa or any place else just got a little more expensive. A threecent price hike for first class stamps was approved today, bringing the cost to send a letter now to 49 cents. The new price will take effect on january 26 and will last no more than two years. Postal Officials Say this hike will help the struggling service recoup nearly 3 billion in losses. Theyre just draining money. And the cost of stamps is not the own thing going up. Bulk mayor, periodicals and package rates will rise by 6 . A san jose for severely disabled adults is struggling to make life enjoyable for its residents. And among their favorite activities, watching shows on a big screen television. But this fall that set broke, and they could not get it repaired. So they were resigned to a gloomier holiday, until 7 on your sides Michael Finney stepped in. Watching television is the one activity that brings residents together here at shamrock house in san jose. Its a good thing for the household here, because we get to connect with the outside world. Shamrock is a home for quadriplegic adults who rarely venture outside. Instead, television brings the world inside. Its great. Watching people like theyre really here. Together the six residents watch movies, 49ers games and reality shows. The tv is important because instead of living in their rooms like a little bubble, they can come out here and mingle with each other. House manager Fernando Ramirez says tv and movie nights lift the spirits of lonely residents. And so it was huge blow when their lifeline to the world suddenly broke down. It was just completely black. No picture, no sound. The tv did not work. Luckily, the extended warranty was still valid, but only for two more weeks. Right away fernando filed a claim, and a technician came three weeks later. And the part wasnt the right part. So they left. Another technician came with another part. It didnt work either. There was a third visit and a fourth. The tv still didnt work. The mood in the house turned somber. They were all in their rooms, which is not gad for them to stay in their rooms. So i found myself playing Computer Games a lot, which was very boring. It was dark. Nobody was out here. Its like there was nobody living here at all. Everybody was a little bit more sade didnt have the tv, because we had nothing to do but go to our rooms. Reporter fernando says the Warranty Company stopped sending out technicians. They said we werent in the computer anymore and they werent going to honor it. Somebody told us about 7 on your side. We contacted sharps Warranty Company, aig insurance. An agent agreed the set should have been replaced. And a few weeks later, a knock on the door. I was very surprised and very happy. We came home and hey, we got the tv. In an email to 7 on your side, aig insurance said aig warranty works closely with its customers to resolve claims. After attempts to repair mr. Ramirezs television in october and early november, aig warranty determined that the tv would need to be replaced. And it was, with this brandnew 57inch 3d television, even bigger than the old one. And just in time for the holidays. I was surprised it was actually done. Oh, a they were all happy they got a tv. Thank you guys very much. The technicians were unable to fix the tv before fernandos warranty expired. However, fernando was still entitled to coverage. Why . Because he filed his claim before the expiration date. And the new tv has made for a much nicer holiday for the folks at shamrock house. Im Michael Finney, 7 on your side. Happy holidays to all of those guys at shamrock house.

In richmond, a mother and her family are working very hard tonight so they can work even harder tomorrow by giving gifts to the needy. Tonight that program is in a bit of need itself. Here is abc 7 News Reporter Wayne Friedman with more on a charity called christmas in richmond. Well start with the big gifts and put them at the bottom, okay . It would appear to be a Christmas Dream come true in the courtyard marriott, overflowing with present, all given to Edna Campbell and her family to be passed through them. This is not about us. Its not about our family. Its about just giving back. Through actions, through deeds, and some heavy lifting. Edna, her daughter burgundy and the rest of the family spent this morning transferring those hundreds of gifts downstairs to a meeting room where tonight they and friends will organize, wrap, and prepare to give them all away to the people of richmond in need. Our family has been on the other side as well. So its a blessing to now be in the position to be able to be a blessing. It was just eight years ago in 2006 that edna and her family were about to become homeless through foreclosure. Edna was feeling sorry for herself. At that point, burgundy sat her down and said this is a perfect time not to grieve, but to give. Well, to take the focus off of what we were going through, reaching out and helping somebody else kind of shifted what we were going through. So it we thought less of what we were going through by helping someone else. That was the beginning of this Family Charity called christmas in richmond. And look what it has become. So right now not only do they give gift, tomorrow they will feed some 800 people. When edna found out she needed more cooks this year, she somehow convinced Hometown Buffet to donate hundreds of meals. And at a local chevys restaurant, edna merely asked the general manager for a discount to supplement her own money. The restaurants have basically a penny. And yet there is a downside here. Even amidst the generosity. Because compared with other years, donations in 2013 have dropped. In previous years, they have filled this place. Well, im trusting and believing that the overflow is on the way. I know its late in the evening. But i believe its still coming. If you dont already see it, Edna Campbell is a woman of faith. She will be here waiting, even if it takes all night. From the courtyard marriott in richmond, Wayne Friedman, abc 7 news. Thank you, edna. Well, people in minnesota will wake up to a White Christmas in the morning. This is what it looks like in duluth tonight. Theyre expecting about 2 to 4 inches overnight.

How hard is that for a player to work as hard as you do and not see the ball in your hands . Its tough, its tough. But i cant pout about it. I cant get upset. That was my earlier days. I just move forward. I just move forward. Because a win is more important than anything when it comes to the team. Arizona, going into their house, i dont know if you got to see them the other day. But theyre playing some good defense. Thats not a gimme. Well just say that. Hey, i mean, thats what this league is all about, you know. This is the nfl. Everyone is good. You cant take no day off. No days off, nothing. But we look forward to the challenge. Dont look for raiders head coach dennis allen and Terrelle Pryors agent to Exchange Gifts this year. Pryors agent Jerome Stanley pryor was starting because he wanted to see him struggle and justify his decision to go with matt mcgloin the past five weeks. Allen called it, quote, the stupidest thing he has ever heard. No coach in their right mind, this isnt the real housewives of beverly hills, all right. This isnt made for tv drama. Okay, this is football. And we make our football decisions based solely on that. Nothing other than that. Im very happy that coach gave me this opportunity. I know for a fact the man coach allen is. He wouldnt do that doesnt even cross my mind, a possibility. So i know he wants to win. He always talks about winning. And we have a good game plan. At the hawaii bowl, boise state was without quarterback Joe Southwick because he allegedly urinated from a hotel balcony. Southwick, who is from danville claims he is innocent, and even took a polygraph to prove it. He was still sent home. Look closely, you might see larry beil out there catching a wave. The beavers got off to a fast start. Shawn mannion to Brandin Cooks for the games first touchdown. Things would get worse for boise state. Quarterback grant headrick coughs up the ball. Rashard reynolds scoops it up. Reynolds returned another fumble 70 yards for a touchdown. Ward capped off a 31point first half with this strong nineyard run. Oregon state wins, 3823. The warriors will be home for christmas. Theyll host the clickers tomorrow night at oracle. Right now golden state is in eighth place in the western conference. But are within three games of five teams. In video provided by the warriors, head coach mark jackson was asked about trying to improve his teams position. When the schedule eases up, youve got to capitalize. And then when youre playing tough teams on the road, or at home, what have you, you have to make sure you keep your head above water. I like where my team is at and how were playing right now. Warriors going for the Third Straight win. Im so excited about the warriors. Go for the Third Straight win tomorrow night. Thanks. Its on the list, santa. For all of us here, rick quan, sandhya patel, thank you for watching. We appreciate your time. Have a Merry Christmas. Enjoy this time with your plante family.
