Clouds and rain is coming our way. Its on the way for tomorrow, mr. Clark. Thank you. It is cloudy out there. A little bit of fog, maybe dancing around 40s 50s on the temps. It will be a cloudy day here. I mean, take a look yourself. I mean, were just painted with cloud cover and our system is still a ways away. But look for cloudy skies today. Although with a south breeze it will be on the mild side. I mean maybe even mid 60s here for some 60s to 65. In san jose. All right. Sal is here picking up cones. I dont know. Yeah. Theres not a lot going on. Maybe a little bit of that steve. But for the most part we do have a nice looking commute. And on friday, sometimes we do think that well get a break now. Well see. Its early. We dont really know. But you know, if you are going later, you might still see some pretty good conditions. At least we hope. No major issues here on interstate 80 or on bay area bridges. Its 401. Lets get back to the headlines. All right. Thank you. One year ago, the oakland mayor xiang tao fired Leronne Armstrong, oaklands former police chief in oakland, has not had a police chief since oaklands Police Commission is in charge of selecting possible candidates, but the mayor rejected their last list of recommendations. Ktvu zac sos talked with both locals and also with a former Oakland Police chief about what that vacancy says about oakland. It should not take this long to have a new police chief thursday, marking one year since the firing of Oakland Police chief Leronne Armstrong by mayor xiang tao and giovanni vincente. Far from the only one questioning the citys search for a successor, my thoughts are i dont know why its taking so long. I dont know why we cant get a good chief of police, but this have been expedited. And does it need to take this long . It does not add. And i squarely put a great deal of responsibility on the Police Commission. Former Oakland Police chief anne kirkpatrick, now chief of new orleans, accusing the commission of playing politics with the process. After submitting armstrong name as a candidate to the mayor in december. Others saying both sides are to blame. It just seems to be, uh, the way things are here in oakland and nothing gets done. Everyone is threw the ball to each other. In the meantime, kirkpatrick says, the city is suffering without a permanent chief. Its extreme disruptive. It is, uh, destabilizing, not only internally, but if you destabilize your Police Department and you destabilize your community. And thats reflect in crime from the streets of rock ridge. I never seen this bad. Ive been robbed, uh, twice at gunpoint to east oaklands hegenberger road. The crime, um, in this area has just gotten out of control. Crime is going rapid. In september, mayor tao telling ktvi if the city was still without a chief by the end of the year, she declare a state of emergency. Thats yet to happen, but kirkpatrick says it likely should have, allowing tao to expedite the process or name a chief herself. Thats what major cities do. Major cities just say, i want this person to be my next chief, and they do it. Um, oakland, i would have thought, would be a major city, but theyre not. Theyre not acting that way. And mayor tao unavailable for an interview today due to a death in the family. But her office says her plan is to continue to work collaboratively with the Police Commission to find a new police chief. As for whats next for the Police Commission, expected to submit three new candidates to her next month in oakland, zac sos, ktvu fox two news isaac. Thank you. Time is now 404. A Vallejo Police officer was arrested, accused of Domestic Violence and making criminal threats and stalking, the ktvu has learned that Vallejo Police officer Ronald Dupree is being held at the santa rita jail in dublin without bail.

Well police in san mateo confirmed the names of the four Family Members who were killed in a triple murder suicide case. Authorities say the father was anond henry. The mother was alice benziger. Their twin boys were four years old. On monday, investigators went to their home after getting calls from a Family Member saying they couldntrillioneach anyone for days. Investigators found the parents dead with gunshot wounds. We still dont know how the two little boys died. And heres just a reminder if you or someone you know is in need of help, there is a National Hotline to call and get support at 24 hours a day. That number is right there on your tv screen. It is nine, eight, eight. Our time is 405. Concerns were raised by federal lawmakers about plans in Solano County to build a new city, backed by billionaires from silicon valley. Bay area congressman Mike Thompson and John Garamendi hosted a forum about the plans to build whats called California Forever. A new Development Near Travis Air Force base. The lawmakers say the organizers havent answered basic questions like where would the necessary water come from . Or where would sewage go to . They may be the greatest people in the world with the most lofty ideas and morals, but i, i believe that you, uh, trust but verify. And theres nothing that they have done that leads me to believe theyre trustworthy. And theres nothing in their proposal that will allow for verification. Now, the leaders of the California Forever project say good paying jobs will be created by this new community, which will also have solar farms, parks and affordable housing. It is now 406. A verdict expected today in former President Trumps civil fraud trial in new york. A judge is set to determine whether trump will face millions of dollars in penalties for inflating his net worth on Financial Statements that were given to banks, insurers and others to secure loans. Meantime, in atlanta District Attorney fani willis is set to go back on the witness stand. Today, a judge is hearing arguments over whether to disqualify her from leading the Georgia Election interference case against donald trump. Yesterday, lawyers questioned fani willis about her romantic relationship with a special prosecutor she hired to prosecute trump for election interference. Youre confused. You think im on trial . These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020. Im not on trial. No matter how hard you try to put me on trial. Now, a judge in new york is also said march 25th as a trial date for Donald Trumps hush money trial connected with former adult movie star Stormy Daniels thats now set to be the first criminal trial ever against a former president. Times now 407 happening today. San Francisco City workers are expected to rally outside of San Francisco General Hospital, demanding better working conditions. Now Union Workers argue the city spends over 50 billion every year on contracts, many of them are awarded to people based outside of San Francisco. They say 1 in 10 contract requests are due to a lack of staff, with the department of Public Health being affected the most. Now, we did reach out to the city to try to get a comment on this. Were still waiting to hear back from them. Our time is 408. If youre hoping to vote in the march primary election, you have to register by next week to get your ballot in time for the election. County registrars around the bay area are trying to get the word out that you need to register to vote by tuesday. That means either registering online by midnight or having a paper Registration Form postmarked by tuesday, february 20th. If you missed that deadline, though, you can still vote. You just have to go register in person and the office will have to verify your ballot and registration time is 409. Opponents of a San Francisco ballot measure meant to increase Police Staffing are hoping new ads will boost their message. Supervisor matt dorsey was joined by the police union and other opponents of that measure. Supporters of prop position be on the march ballot say it would set minimum Staffing Levels and required the citys budget to have enough money to retain Current Police officers. But the opponents say that is misleading. They claim its a way to raise taxes. In my view, this is a slap in the face to every san franciscan who cares about Public Safety in San Francisco. This is a majority of the board of supervisors telling san franciscans that with our 14. 6 billion budget, we dont have enough money to hire even minimum Police Staffing levels that is not fiscally responsible. That is galling. No matt dorsey wrote the original proposition, but he withdrew his support after supervisor asha saffy amended it to allow for potential future tax measures. As supervisor saphi, who is running for mayor of San Francisco, says it not guaranteeing funding for the department would be irresponsible considering the citys budget deficit. Well, San Francisco could soon apologize to black residents for its role in decade of discrimination, a group of residents addressed the citys board of supervisors yesterday, asking them to adopt a resolution that would have the board of supervisors and the city apologize to black residents and their descendants. The group says the city should apologize for past structural discrimination targeted acts of violence and atrocities. That resolution comes as the city is debating whether to give black residents reparations for slavery. Well, theres only one statewide initiative on the upcoming march 5th ballot here in california. Proposition one would use more than 6 billion in bonds to provide housing for 11,000 people with Mental Health needs around the state, and 27,000 outpatient units. Governor newsom says its a key step to address the homelessness crisis here in california. California senator alex padilla also supports that measure. Proposition one begins that that big investment in Community Based services and support housing, together with Mental Health services. If thats what you need. Now, critics of proposition one say it would allow the state to force people into residential treatment programs. Our time is now 411 getting you ready on this friday. Steve paulson is back. Has that forecast, but ill be back for 5. 5 hours. Mr. Clarke. Thank you sir. Youll be here as well. Thank you. All right. Cloudy today. Uh, a lot of cloud cover streaming across. Nothing organized, but its just spilling across from the system, which will be here tomorrow. Rain returns on saturday, and then a much stronger system is on track as we head towards late sunday all the way into wednesday. Am i seeing am i the only one whos seeing . It goes to wednesday. Wind and rain at times heavy at times especially, i think about, oh, Santa Cruz Mountains, marin county and Russian River for sure. A lot of cloud cover, maybe some light rain today. But most of this is just a lot of cloud cover in advance of a what looks to be a pretty strong system here. The jet stream is cooking right along and that will enhance this system as it begins to move onshore late tonight. Tomorrow 20s in the mountains. There are all sorts of advisories. If it isnt a Winter Weather advisory, its a itll be a winter storm warning for the mountains eventually. Were good today. There wont be much at all today, but tomorrow start to bring in the rain and it looks pretty good here, especially up towards san rafael, San Francisco, oakland, napa, fairfield and santa rosa. Look at that. Thats pretty good. Lesser amounts south. But i think the sunday night system into monday will favor areas more towards the Santa Cruz Mountains. But some pretty impressive totals are on the way here between now and next late thursday into friday. Although this looks like more of a rain event than snow event. Theyll get some, though. Mostly cloudy to cloudy. Some patchy fog looks cloudy today, but warmer with 60s in fact, maybe even some mid 60s in the Santa Clara Valley there. Dave all right steve, thank you. Time now for 13 new details coming out about the shootings at the Kansas City Chiefs super bowl victory parade. Were live in kansas city this morning to tell you what investigators plan to do next.

The San Mateo County board of supervisors asked state regulators to reconsider allowing waymo Driverless Cars to operate in that county. Ktvu Lamonica Peters talked to leaders who want more regulations in place before Driverless Cars are allowed on the road. San mateo county board supervisor david canepa says the board has unanimously decided to support state senate bill 915, which will give local governments the power to decide if it wants Driverless Cars on its streets. Right now, the cpuc decides where driverless companies can operate, and it approved waymos application to expand to San Mateo County last month. The last thing i want to do is to make highway 101 a beaker in waymos science project. Want to make sure we have speeds going at about 65 miles an hour . Um, want to make sure that people are safe and look in San Francisco, theyve had a multitude of problems over the last two weeks in San Francisco, a bicyclist was struck and injured by a waymo driverless car and another waymo car was set on fire by a group of people in chinatown. State senator dave cortese from san jose says hes proposing sb 915 because local governments have no way to regulate Driverless Cars. Were going to fix that loophole in the law, and were going to let cities and counties, um, start putting ordinances together, laws together at the local level as they see fit for their particular community may be different, um, from one community to another, cortese says he believes Driverless Car Technology will continue to improve, but regulation should happen at the local level. I think what theyve proven to us is that theyre not quite there and, and, um, we certainly need to let local communities like San Francisco, in the San Francisco board of supervisors come up with their own rules to protect people. Now, in a statement, waymo says that it did provide information about the company to the board and other stakeholders before applying for the permit. Senator cortez says that it could take this bill about a year to work its way through the legislature. Nature. Lamonica peters ktvu, fox two news. All right. Lamonica, thank you. Time for 18. A tech company is renewing the lease on its headquarters in the bay area. Github the Software Development management company, announced its keeping its headquarters in the south beach neighborhood, where theyve been based since 2013. The company told ktvu, weve extended leases at all of our hubs and were actively investing in reimagining github spaces around the world to better cultivate togetherness, as it is for 18 sfo, getting 31 billion in federal funding to make improvements to the international terminal, the faa and the Biden Administration announced almost 1 billion in grants from the bipartisan infrastructure law for airports around the country. The money at sfo will be used to replace heating and cooling systems inside the international terminal. That terminal opened in the year 2000. The airport says theyre now dealing with aging infrastructure. Well, the city of oakland taking action now to improve its waterfront along the embarcadero. Mayor shang tao says the city has awarded a 25 Million Contract to reconnect communities in west oakland. Chinatown and downtown all the way to the waterfront. Those areas right now are cut off from the water by interstate 880. Bart and the railroad tracks. The new plan is to design a pedestrian and bike trail and upgrade Railroad Crossing equipment. The city says the goal is to make the water front safer, more accessible, accessible and also vibrant art. All right, just about 420. Lets talk more about your weather and the clouds. We have outside right now. Well, well look at the sierra here. Dave, if youre going to travel, today is the day to do it because itll start to go downhill, if you will, by the time we get to tomorrow, these will probably change. But Winter Weather advisory starts tomorrow morning at 10 a. M, goes through 4 a. M. Sunday. That winter storm watch will become a warning. It always does. That will be late sunday to tuesday night. A couple of feet of snow is being forecast here, so be be advised if youre going up. Today is the day to go and then get back early on saturday. Or if youre staying up there, then hang out cloudy warm today with a south wind. More rain and the wind picks up on saturday and then wind and rain, heavy at times, will take us late sunday. Probably all the way out to wednesday is the way its looking. I do think that Santa Cruz Mountains, of course, Mount Tamalpais, but especially the Russian River. Cazadero occidental forest. I think theyll be in the mix for the highest amounts, but everyone should get in on some pretty good activity here. Not so much today. Cloudy there could be a few, you know, some light activity, mainly north, but the front still has a ways to go. There it is. Its packing. Its tapping into a lot of moisture. Its for this time of year. Its off the scale there. 40s on the temps are 50. These probably wont change under cloudy skies. A roaring jet stream will help usher this in here. And it might. Hopefully it wont stall, but there are some hints that it might before it starts to get bumped along again by that next system on sunday. Heavier amounts, i mean, you know, again, san jose only showing a third fremont, redwood city, not so much, but San Francisco, oakland, fairfield, napa, san rafael, santa rosa. Uh, thats looking rather impressive. Again, if santa rosa gets two, thats four in the Santa Cruz Mountains and the projection all the way out to next wednesday looks pretty impressive. I mean, there will be some hefty totals here, but the most rain in the 48 contiguous states over the next week is right here across the entire country is right here. Most cloudy to cloudy. Some patchy fog looks cloudy today, but warmer with a little south breeze. Get some mid 60s. Dave right steve thank you. A record breaking donation for the San Francisco ballet.

Police in kansas city still out there searching for what led up to this weeks shooting at the super bowl victory parade in kansas city. Now, the Police Say Many of the victims were kids and so were the suspects. Reporter Kennedy Hayes is joining us live in kansas city with the latest details. So has anybody been charged as yet . Dave . No one has been charged yet, but Kansas City Police say they plan on filing charges soon. Right now, two children are in custody. One suspect was released yesterday, and now the relationship between those suspects is still under investigation. But in terms of a motive, police say the shooting was not terrorism or extremism. It appears to be a dispute between several people that ended in gunfire. Authorities add the violence took place mostly on the west side of Union Station wednesday, despite initial reports. Gunfire erupted in multiple locations. It wasnt just police who ran towards the threat. Officials thanked the chiefs fans who tried to help tackle suspects and called for an end to gun violence. Unfortunate this is not the first shooting at a parade in our country, or a rally that is certainly a tragic incident for us because we dont have experience with them. You ask the chief at the outset, is this kansas city . Well, weve had parades like this before. We had one last year without this type of incident. We had a Kansas City Royals victory parade where we had almost no arrests in 2015. So i dont think in any way that this is kansas city, say more than 20 others were injured. Half of them are under 16 years old. And doctors say all children wounded are expected to make a full recovery. And despite the tragedy, the mayor says they will go on with planning their Saint Patricks day parade next month in kansas city, missouri. Kennedy, hayes ktvu, fox two news. All right, kennedy.

The latest water collection data shows california reservoirs are doing a lot better than they were this time last year. The states major reservoirs are now at about 76 capacity. Thats. 115 of the usual level at this time of the year. But while water storage looks pretty good, the experts are grateful california will get a few more storms this weekend to add to that capacity. Its great to see this stream of storms because to get even up to average conditions, we need 4 or 5 big storms during our winter wet season. Now this weekend storm jared, steve will also benefit the if youre heading north to go skiing this Holiday Weekend, where do you think of all that . Steve . I think the water managers are having a early meeting to decide on shasta because theres going to be a lot of rain up there. Wow. And shasta gets, i think, 75 of their water from rainfall. Not from snow. So and theyre already releasing big time. And theres going to be a lot of rain here. So were doing fine rainfall wise. Snow. We could use some more and i think we will get some out of this here. A Winter Weather advisory starts tomorrow morning, so youre good to travel today if youre heading up 50 or 80. But that starts at 10 a. M. The winter storm watch will become a warning. It always does late sunday. That will go into tuesday evening, and i think it will linger even into wednesday. So cloudy today, mild to warm though with a little bit of a southeast breeze. Rain returns saturday. Could be moderate to heavy. The jet stream thats the river of air where the pilots fly. And theyre theyre making good time. If they have any flight from anywhere in asia or even hawaii back to here, theyre catching that strong jet stream, wind and rain, heavy at times late sunday, although that might even come in now. Sunday afternoon. Originally it would look like late sunday. Ill stick with that for now, but theres going. There are going to be some impressive totals after everything is said and done. The key will be theres some really deep moisture here for this time of year. February middle of february. Its up there as, as almost i think 97 percentile. And thats how deep this moisture is. And you get the low level convergence. So thats a strong low level jet stream. And you can ramp up some big totals Russian River around Mount Tamalpais and also of course the Santa Cruz Mountains a lot of show not much go today. If theres anything itd be light. But really the system is coming in later tonight, more likely tomorrow morning. So somebody will write me and say, steve, were going golfing tomorrow. What do you think . Ill tell you exactly what ill keep an eye on the sky and play fast. But play fast. It looks like its coming in saturday morning, though. If youre inland, maybe youll get a break. Coast . I dont think so. East wind. Look at that mount veeder Oakland Hills also Boulder Creek, all easterly breeze. So its an offshore higher pressure inland lower pressure off the coast 40s 50s on the temps. And there it is. You can see our system is inching closer. Rain will start probably tomorrow morning. His way. It looks you can see it there. And the heavier amounts this time around will be to the north. I think the system late sunday monday will focus a lot of energy towards santa cruz, Santa Cruz Mountains. But anyway , you look at it, were in for some pretty good rainfall here between now and next wednesday night, if not thursday. I think itll be done by next wednesday. Theres your system. Tomorrow morning continues as we should see rain most of the day, then looks sunday. Theyve ramped that up. Thats thats much quicker than it was. That will take us into sunday night. Thatll take us into monday. Watch here. We go into tuesday and then i think it lingers all the way into wednesday. So get ready.

One state lawmaker from San Francisco wants to make sure that all bridges in california remain toll free for people who walk or ride a bike, state Assemblyman Phil Ting formally introduced this legislation yesterday. It would permanently ban tolls for pedestrians and cyclists on all state owned bridges, as well as the Golden Gate Bridge. At a time when were dealing with Climate Change and were trying to get encourage more people to walk more people to bike, i cant think of a greater disincentive for that than actually charging a toll for pedestrians and cyclists across one of the most famous bridges in our world. Now now, representative ting says theres no current plan to impose a toll to walk or bike across california bridges. But he wants a law on the books just in case that idea pops up. However, pedestrians were charged across the Golden Gate Bridge between 1937 and 1973. Well bart will be Closing Service between richmond and el cerrito del norte stations over the weekend. They want to repair the track equipment out there and remove trees near the train tracks. The busses will replace Train Service between those two stations, beginning tomorrow through monday and then starting up again. One weekend in march and two weekends in april. Bart Officials Say riders should anticipate delays of 20 minutes or so in that area. Time now for 50. Scientists have discovered mountains under the seas were discovered between costa rica and chile, and these sea mountains are 1 to 2 miles high. Theyre a cover about more than 170mi s. This discovery was made while technicians were examining gravity anomalies, which are differences between observed and predicted values of gravity on the earth. Time now for 50. A lot of value in Steve Paulson this morning. He knows about our weather. I hope so, mr. Clark. Thank you, sir. Well do our best. Cloudy and warm today. The fabulous ali just walked in good morning. Ali. Uh all right. More rain and wind on saturday, but the bigger system will be late. Sunday. Might even be sunday afternoon. Now, i might have to tweak that. And itll go all the way out to wednesday. The system coming in tomorrow will favor marin county north, the system coming in late sunday into monday, i think will favor santa cruz at mountains down towards monterey. Thats kind of the way its playing out as the way it looks. We could get some lightrillionain today. I would think to the north that would just be the light overrunning. Uh, you see a tremendous amount of cloud cover, but the front still has a ways to go. Theres an easterly breeze in place. Ill say mount veeder, Oakland Hills, also, Boulder Creek east of ten. All in the 40s and now 50. So upper 40s, mainly mid 40s on the peninsula, but mainly 40s to low 50s. A screaming jet stream. I mean an abundant amount of pacific moisture is being entrained in there now. This will produce moderate to heavy rainfall and whats called low level convergence, low levels around 5000ft. So if you get that and you take this moisture and then you start to ramp it up like that, especially coastal hills, you can squeeze out a lot of rain. So maybe a half inch to one inch rainfall rates per hour are possible with this system, especially north of marin county, maybe even San Francisco, oakland tomorrow, far less to the south, at least through saturday. But again, the sunday night, monday, tuesday, maybe all the way into wednesday system. No doubt about it, figures to be more towards areas towards santa cruz down to monterey and Santa Clara Valley. But everyone will get in on the rain starts tomorrow. Early goes through most of the day. Might get a little break sunday morning, but forecast models are speeding up the onset of this next one on sunday and then watch. It just keeps going. Sunday, monday, tuesday finally gets whats called a kicker on wednesday before it looks like that next system may go to Southern California. That wouldnt be until a week from today though. 60s on, the temps cloudy skies, mostly cloudy, some patchy fog, but could be a few light showers or sprinkles. But i think really most of this is coming in tomorrow. Mid 60s on some of the temps. Okay steve, thank you times for 53. Only one statewide proposition is on the ballot for the march primary ballot. Well take a look at the support. Its getting from some lawmakers and a new global athletics competition. The reason this one will allow athletes to take performance enhancing drugs in Southern California. After a truck caught fire and its fuel tank blew up. It happened in the wilmington neighborhood in south la. Look at that. Firefighters say a 100 gallon cylinder of compressed natural gas blew up. Boom is what made me shoot out of bed. I shot up real quick, and then the rumbling is what made me kind of like, question everything. Like i thought it was a earthquake. I got scared, i thought it was gonna be like a chain reaction. And i was like, oh my god, what else is going to blow up . Now, the first firefighters who pulled up to the scene were trying to put out the flames when that explosion occurred. Two of the firefighters were taken to the hospital and they have serious injuries. The driver of the truck involved was not hurt. Our time is 456 and International Sports event now being planned has triggered some outrage around the sports world. Now this event would allow the athletes to openly use performance enhancing drugs. Organizers are calling it the enhanced games. It would feature older, steroid fueled athletes competing in several sports. 44 of olympians, according to the olympics own research, have used banned performance enhancing drugs. It only 1 get caught. This is exactly the promise of performance Medicine Technology to enable athletes to regain those extra few years. Now, organizers hope the games will begin as early as december of this year. But critics say this competition will only promote the use of dangerous, performance enhancing drugs. Well, at the start of the year, gyms tell end to be busy with newcomers who show up. But gyms around the country are strangely quiet this year, and new report showed that foot traffic at ten major gyms was pretty flat compared to a year ago. That slump affected both high and. Gym facilities and the ones that are budget friendly. Its a blow for those clubs that were enjoying a postpandemic bump. Analysts are blaming the drop off on bad weather all across the country, and more competition in the industry. See our time now. For 57. The as Organization Says it had a positive meeting yesterday with officials from oakland and Alameda County about extending the teams lease with the coliseum. That lease is due to expire at the end of the coming season, but the proposed new ballpark for the as in las vegas is not expected to be completed until 2028. That would mean the as are going to need a home for three more seasons. Last month, the as executives toured Minor League Ballparks in both sacramento and Salt Lake City as possible options. Major League Baseball commissioner rob manfred says hes confident the las vegas deal will happen in. Whenever youre leaving a market where youve been for decades and youre going to make a move, um, to a different city where theres not a stadium that thats a really difficult undertaking. And its not going to, you know, be seamless, smooth. There are going to be bumps along the road. Now, if the as do stay at the coliseum and in this market for the next four years, the as will be able to keep their broadcasting rights deal, which is worth about 75 million a year. Well, the new professional Baseball Team in oakland announced they have a new home for the coming season. The oakland ballers have named Richmond Park in west oakland as their home field. The independent league team will play 48 home games at the park, beginning june 4th. The ballers say they have a 1. 6 million plan funded through private investors, to make upgrades to the ballpark. Theyre the local community will still have access to the field on nights when the team is not playing. The sooner that the mayor gets this decision done, the better it will be. Ill be living in oakland for 25 years as an and ive never seen it this bad. Oakland now one year without a police chief and theres still no sign there will be one anytime soon. Well look at the long drawn out process of finding the next police chief for oakland. And today a verdict is expected in new york. In the civil trial, the civil fraud trial against former President Trump. What the judge in this case could decide from ktvu, fox two news. This is mornings on two. Well, good morning and thank you for joining us. Welcome to mornings on two. Im dave clark im allie rasmus. It is friday february 16th. Happy friday. Happy friday to you too. And to steve as well. Good to see you guys here this morning. And i think we should enjoy the dry weather today before things really start to change. Steve. That is true. Welcome to the dawn patrol. As we say, there allie. Thank you. We do have cloudy skies today. Rain arrives tomorrow. Uh, that is correct. 40s and 50s on the temps. Maybe a little fog out there if theres any lightrillionain today, it would be very light. I mean, ill mention it, but its not in the forecast unless youre north, because most of this is on its way for tomorrow. So today is heavy cloud, no rain. Uh but rain is on the way tomorrow. Mostly cloudy, lots of clouds today, but warmer with an east southeast breeze. Some mid 60s are possible here, but that system will usher in some pretty good rain starting tomorrow. All right, sal, is here anything new or are you still okay out there . Uh, were still okay. You know, as a matter of fact, im just looking to make sure that we dont have anything new that just popped up. Sometimes that happens, but, uh, you know, its not exactly fields of gold out there, but i like what i see. You can see traffic is moving along very nicely on 24, on 80, on 101 in San Francisco. So were you know, were going to, uh, were going to take the way it is. And there have been no major issues this morning on any of the bay area bridges 501. Lets get back to the desk, sal. Thank you. It is now been more than a year since the city of oakland has had a Permanent Police chief, Community Leaders and oakland residents say theyre frustrated about that and confused about the long, drawn out process to find a new leader of the department. Well, ktvu is Bailey Ocarroll in the studio with us now with more on this and more on the questions about it as well. Thats right guys, good morning. A whole lot of questions. People are frustrated, especially as crime rates in oakland rise, burglaries, robberies, vehicle theft are all up. So how did oakland get to the point that it is at. Well, no police chief for over a year. And of course, those rising crime rates. So take a look. So on february 15th, 2023, oakland mayor xiang tao fired then police chief leon armstrong. The city formed a Police Commission. It was made up of six members. They were tasked. Thats when the city tasked that commission with finding a replacement for armstrong. In december of last year, ten months after he was fired, they submitted three candidates to the mayor, including the chief who she had just fired, armstrong. They also submitted an assistant chief from tucson, arizona, and a candidate from the san leandro Police Department. The mayor denied all three of those candidates. Uh, former Oakland Police chief ann kirkpatrick, who was fired. Like armstrong said. Simply put, she thinks the commission is playing politics with the mayors office. I squarely put a great deal of responsibility on the Police Commission when they, um, i think politically they advanced three names that they knew who they were trying to buttonhole, all trying to get chief armstrong put in that position. Uh, the mayor did not take that bait. And so they played, uh, games and that should never have occurred. So the question many are asking now is what happens next . How can oakland move in the right direction . Well, the Police Commission went back to work. They continue to work with the mayor. They are expected to have the next round of names on the mayors desk come march 1st. The deadline to apply did just pass a handful of days ago. Uh, something interesting, though, that i want to note. Former police chief kirkpatrick told us that many major cities like oakland actually dont use a Police Commission. Commission to find the next candidate. Rather, the mayor just selects who they want to be chief and so be it, she said. Kirkpatrick said that she found it surprising that oakland mayor tao has not done that just yet. Back to you guys. All right, bailey, thank you. Time now, 504 of vallejo. Police officer was arrested, accused of Domestic Violence, making criminal threats and stalking. Ktvu has learned that Vallejo Police officer Ronald Dupree is being held at the santa rita jail in dublin without bail. Dupree in the past has received awards for his involvement in making arrests for duis and stolen cars, a statement by the vallejo Police Department says officer dupree is on paid leave for a ongoing personal matter. Police in san mateo confirmed the names of the four Family Members who were killed in a triple murder suicide case. Authorities say the father was anond henry and the mother was alice benzinger. Their twin boys were four years old. On monday, investigators went to their home after getting calls from a Family Member saying they hadnt been able to reach anyone in the family for days. Investigators found the parents dead of gunshot wounds. We still dont know how the two little boys died. And heres a reminder if you or anyone you know is in need of help, there is a National Hotline to call and get support 24 hours a day. That number on your tv screen. Right now, it is nine eight, eight. Okay allie, time is now 505 concerned were raised by federal lawmakers about plans in Solano County to build a new city backed by billionaires from silicon valley, bay area congressman Mike Thompson and John Garamendi hosted a forum about the plans to build whats called California Forever, a new Development Near Travis Air Force base. The lawmakers say the organizers have not answered basic questions like where would the necessary water come from . Or where would sewage go to . They may be the greatest people in the world with the most lofty ideas and an odd morals, but i, i believe that you trust but verify and theres nothing saying that they have done that leads me to believe theyre trustworthy, and theres nothing in their proposal that will allow for verification. Now the leaders of the California Forever project say good paying jobs will be created by this new community, which will also have solar farms, parks and affordable housing. A verdict is expected today in former president Donald Trumps civil fraud trial in new york. A judge is set to determine whether trump will face millions of dollars in penalties for inflating his net worth on Financial Statements that were given to banks, insurers and others to secure loans. Meanwhile, in atlanta, District Attorney fani willis is set to return to the witness stand today. A judge is hearing arguments over whether to disqualify her from leading the Georgia Election interference case against former President Trump yesterday, attorneys questioned willis about her romantic relationship with the special prosecutor prosecutor she had hired to prosecute donald trump for election interference. If youre confused, you think im on trial. These people are on trial for trying to steal an election in 2020. Im not on trial. No matter how hard you try to put me on trial. A judge in new york has also set march 25th as a trial date for trumps hush money trial, connected to former adult film star Stormy Daniels that is now set to be the first criminal trial ever against a former president. Our time now 507 happening today san Francisco City workers are expected to stage rallies outside of San Francisco. General hospital, demanding better working conditions. The Union Workers argue the city spends more than 50 billion every year on contracts, many of them are awarded to people based outside of San Francisco. They say 1 in 10 contract requests are because of a lack of staff, with the department of Public Health being affected the most. That we did try to reach out to the city to get a comment on this. Were still waiting to hear back from them anyway, hoping to vote in the march primary must register by next week to get their ballot in time for the election. County registrars across the bay area are trying to get the word out that people need to register to vote by tuesday. That means either registering online by midnight that day or having a paper Registration Form postmarked by tuesday, february 20th. If you miss that deadline, though, you can still vote. You just have to register in person and the office will have to verify your ballot and registration. All right, ali times 510 509. Opponents of a San Francisco ballot measure thats meant to increase Police Staffing are hoping some new ads will boost their message. Supervisor matt dorsey was joined by the police union and other opponents of that measure. Supporters of prop b on the march ballot say it would set minimum Staffing Levels and required the citys budget have enough money to retain Current Police officers. But the opponents say that is misleading and claim its a way to raise taxes is, in my view, this is a slap in the face to every san franciscan who cares about Public Safety in San Francisco. This is a majority of the board of supervisors telling san franciscans that with our 14. 6 billion budget, we dont have enough money to hire even minimum Police Staffing levels. That is not fiscally responsible. That is galling. Now, dorsey wrote the original proposition, but he was drew his support after supervisor asha safai amended it to allow for potential future tax measures. Supervisors off i, who is running for mayor, says not guaranteeing funding for the department would be irresponsible considering the citys budget deficit. 510 is the time and we are in the calm before the storm. I guess you could say Steve Paulson, ali, i have to be on my toes when youre here because you follow the weather. I listen to your report. Youre very good at it, i know, thank you very much. That is correct. Uh, now the wind will pick up more. So on the sunday night monday system. But if youre going to the mountains, today is the day to go. Then get back early tomorrow. Really . Thats the way i see it. Winter weather advisory starts at 10 a. M. Saturday and goes through 4 a. M. Sunday. Winter storm watch slash warning late sunday into tuesday. Feet the measure and feet. Thats the good news. Theres not a heck of a lot being forecast on the saturday system, maybe above lake level, but i mean, you know, 4 to 7, 1 to 7 and not at pollock pines. Thats around 4000ft. So youre seeing blue canyon. So around 5200ft and up. But there will be a lot more in the higher elevations. You get above 7000. So cloudy today. And there could be some, you know, hit and miss little garden variety, uh, light showers and stuff. But the most of this is coming in tomorrow. More rain, heavier rain moves in and wind picks up on saturday. The bigger system, though, is late sunday, monday, tuesday and will probably go all the way into wednesday. The way its looking. Unless youre north. I mean, there could be some light activity, but thats really high base. Its just a lot of show and not much go. You can see though, its continuing. But boy this is some deep, deep moisture as we say is off the chart for this time of year. And it is going to make an impact starting tomorrow. We get an easterly breeze. Temps have come up 40s and 50s east at mount veeder, east at Oakland Hills, east at Boulder Creek at ten. So that will allow for some warming south southeast breeze, 40s for most few 50s, but mainly 40s on the temps. Raw jet stream screaming across the pacific there which will enhance that system. Uh, not only that, it may slow down or stall out a little bit. I think this system will take aim more towards San Francisco, marin county, north, the system late sunday, monday will favor areas towards santa cruz, down to monterey, down to central california. As the way i see it on this here and others as well. And there will be some impressive totals by the time everything is said and done. And that may not be for about a week. If santa rosa gets four and a third. You know this. I say it all the time. The old rule of thumb is double it for cazadero. So theyd be looking at eight and a half. I mean, thats a lot of rain. So i think i think the usual suspects Russian River, marin county for the next 48 hours, and then itll be Santa Cruz Mountains south, but theres just a train here coming in sunday. Sunday night, monday watch tuesday for the low. Just sits there and taps into moisture and finally kicks out wednesday. I dont know why anybodys clearing it out wednesday. I mean it looks like a rain day. That next system, though may favor Southern California over us. Thats a week away, though. 60s on the temps. Mostly cloudy, some patchy fog. Looks cloudy today, but warmer temperatures will be in the 60s. Rain comes in tomorrow. You guys all right . Thank you steve. Will new details coming in about the shootings at the Kansas City Chiefs super bowl victory parade . Were live in kansas city to tell you what investigators plan to do next. In that case. And a push in San Mateo County to bring in Driverless Cars is getting pushed back while the board of supervisors wants state regulators to reconsider letting waymo cars operate, there the economy is simply not working for millions of hard working families. Theyre working harder than ever and they still cant make enough to get by to afford food and medicine to even keep a roof over their heads. We need to build more housing thats truly affordable. We need to address this terrible epidemic of homelessness. We need to invest in good paying jobs, union jobs and investments in our future. This, this is why im running for the us senate. Im adam schiff and i approve this message. This ad . Typical. Politicians. Hes bad. Im good. Blah, blah. Lets shake things up. With katie porter. Porter refuses corporate pac money. And leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. Katie porter. Taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. And drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. Most politicians just fight each other. While katie porter fights for you. For Senate Democrat katie porter. Im katie porter and i approve this message. In the march 5th ballot here. Proposition one would use more than 6 billion in bonds to provide housing for 11,000 people with Mental Health needs. Around the state and 27,000 outpatient units. Governor newsom says its a crucial step to address the homeless crisis in california. California senator alex padilla supports that measure as well. Proposition one begins at that big investment in Community Based services and support housing, together with Mental Health services, if thats what you need. Now, critics of prop one say it would allow the state to force people into residential treatment programs. Rouz San Francisco could soon apologize to its black residents for its role in decades of discrimination. In a group of residents addressed the citys board of supervisors yesterday, asking them to adopt a resolution that would have the board and the city apologize to black residents and their descendants. The group says the city should apologize for past structural discrimination, targeted acts of violence and atrocities. The resolution comes as the city debates whether to give its black residents reparations for slavery. All right, our time is 517, and a new plan to bring Driverless Cars to the peninsula is getting some pushback. This morning. The San Mateo County board of supervisors asked state regulators to rican consider allowing waymo Driverless Cars to operate in their county. The board is supporting legislation at the state level to allow local governments to decide if they want driver less cars on their streets. Now it comes as state regulators recently approved waymos application to expand service into San Mateo County. Supervisors say the Public Utilities commission never asked them what they thought about having Driverless Cars on their streets before giving authorization to waymo. The last thing i want to do is to make highway 101 a beaker in waymos science project. Want to make sure we have speeds going at about 65 miles an hour . Um, want to make sure, uh, that people are safe and look, in San Francisco, theyve had a multitude of problems. Were going to fix that loophole in the law, and were going to let cities and counties, um, start putting ordinances together, laws together at the local level as they see fit for their particular community. It may be different, um, from one community to another. In a statement, waymo says that it did provide information about the company to the board of supervisors before applying for the permit to operate in San Mateo County. The Autonomous Car Company Cruise is undergoing a change in leadership. Head of hardware karl jenkins resigned after six years. His linkedin page says his team was responsible for developing cruises selfdriving hardware. In november, a cruise Autonomous Vehicle dragged a pedestrian whod been hit by another car about 20ft in San Francisco. The state then suspended the companys permit for driverless vehicles, cruise ceo says jenkins team is critical to cruises efforts to return its vehicles back to the road. As soon as possible. A tech company is renewing the lease on its headquarters in the bay area.

The city of oakland is taking steps to improve its waterfront along the embarcadero. Mayor shengtao says the city has awarded a 25 Million Contract to reconnect communities in west oakland, chinatown and downtown, all the way to the waterfront. Those areas are currently cut off from the water by interstate 880 bart and railroad tracks. The plan is to design a pedestrian and bike trail and upgrade Railroad Crossing equipment. The city says the goal is to make the waterfront safer, more accessible and more vibrant. Okay allie, time is 520. Were going right back to Steve Paulson talking about the quiet before the storm. Oh, i like that, dave. Yeah, its an allie rasmus original. Im tc tony kilbert sal will know what im talking about. There uh, Leslie Stovall is up next, by the way. All right. The quiet storm. All right. Cloudy today, then rain tomorrow. And then a bigger system. Late son might even come in earlier sunday. Now you know me and my army of one. Tim working as fast as we can to try and update things. But cloudy skies today, if theres any rain, itd be light, light, light and i would think more tomorrow. So rain saturday. Moderate to heavy, especially San Francisco north. Thats a roaring jet stream. I say jet stream because without that we wouldnt have any rain and its painted right over us. More rain, wind saturday, but more in the way of heavier activity would be late sunday, monday, tuesday, and probably all the way to wednesday is the way its looking. This has abundant pacific moisture, and after everything said and done between between tomorrow and id say wednesday night, ill say cazadero will get the most. Thats my 0. 02 worth. Mount tamil pilots will be close for those of you southward if youre towards santa cruz, Santa Clara Valley down to monterey, salinas, i think yours is sunday night. Monday, i think thatll be a heavier system than the one youre going to see tomorrow. Nothing really popping up yet. Im looking up towards fort bragg, willits, ukiah. I mean, thats all light, but so a lot of show. Not much go here for the for today, but we could get a little bit later as things start to juice up. But boy thats a lot of cloud cover streaming in the front though. Still has a ways to go 40s 50s on the temps here. Uh, we do have temperatures that are going to be on the mild side because were getting an east southeast breeze. Look at that mount diablo 45, northeast 13. But with that system getting closer, the wind direction will turn southerly and that will put some mid 60s in the mix here. But everything is pointing towards saturday. A pretty good amount is being forecast here. The last couple of uh, system days i have hung my hat on whats called the gem. Its the canadian global model. Cmc is what its called. It has been spot on with some of these projections over the last two weeks or so. So the trend is your friend. Im not going to change anything now. San francisco, Oakland North more so than south again though, youll get yours south on late sunday monday. And i think thatll be a focus for the heavier rain. So all told, here we are looking for some pretty impressive totals once everything is said and done. Today is your day to get out. Maybe mostly cloudy to cloudy, some patchy fog. It looks cloudy today. If theres any rain, ill mention it, but most of this is coming in tomorrow. 60s on the temps buckle up, get ready. Its on its way and thats going to be rain starting tomorrow. All right, well do that. Thank you steve. Well history made last night for the Golden State Warriors in utah. Lay thompson had a h e night. Nd when barbara switched to turbotax.

Today we have a lot of cloud cover thats for sure. And thats whats streaming across. If theres any rain to be light, i think more of this is coming in saturday morning. But cloudy and mild. Heavy cloud, no rain. And thats because were getting a lot of this overrunning. But mostly cloudy morning. It looks cloudy today, but mid 60s. And Santa Clara Valley. Thats your rainmaker for saturday. Temperatures will be in the 60s low to even mid. Well lets see if its fields of gold out there on the commute. Heres south. Uh no steve, not exactly. Uh, not exactly. See what you did there . But were actually pretty good, though. I like what i see out there when it comes to the commute. Uh, and traffic is moving along relatively well.

Well, you can expect to see the first round of that rain starting this weekend, though. Expect to see it last for even a few days. Beyond that. Well, just a few days ago, rather a few weeks ago, when we dealt with that last round of storms, we really worried and paid attention to those heavy gusts of wind. Some parts of the bay area saw nearly 100 mile an hour gusts. This time around, were really going to focus our attention on the amount of rain, and we know already our ground all over the bay area, very much saturated from the amount of rain that weve got before. Most scientists will tell you thats a pretty good thing, especially after years of drought. Those storms are doing a great job of replenishing our water sources and our water supply. And its even better when we have this kind of weather year after year. Its great to see this stream of storms, because to get even up to average conditions, we need 4 or 5 big storms during our winter wet season, which runs from basically december through through march. It may be into into april. However, other experts will warn about the dangers those gusts of winds forced large trees to topple over. In some cases crashing into homes and bringing power lines down with them in just a few weeks ago, the state reported three storm related deaths. Now, say youre worried about a tree that is in your in your yard. Maybe you notice its height, its strength. Maybe you notice that the ground is saturated around it.

Its called the California Retail theft reduction act. It would keep repeat offenders in jail, in custody and increase the jail time for suspects identified as professional retail thieves.

She had an impressive collection of shoes and was an unlikely influencer with thousands of followers on instagram. In 2019, ginas favorite store, the bay area based retailer shoe palace, worked with the jordan brand to create a special sneaker just for gina. Shes the only nonceleb to ever get one. Her family and shoe palace now want to auction off more than 200 pairs of her shoes to raise money for a scholarship. We were just trying to figure out, you know, the shoes and the amount of shoes and how to make her proud. It was tragic that what happened to her. And i just feel like at least her legacy can still live on. We have a part in that. I feel like thats what were trying to do here, and a family decided the scholarship should be for a student at ginas alma mater, san jose state university. They say its only right that the auction be about sneakers and education. The auction is expected to begin in early march. 540 is the time. Lets look at our forecast coming up this weekend. Its a Holiday Weekend. A lot of kids off next week, steve. And i think theres going to be a lot of indoor activities for them. Well, theres a lot of weather on the way. Today is kind of the, you know, in between day here. We have a lot of cloud cover, but the activity starts saturday. Then picks up again. Sunday might even be sunday afternoon. Now, originally i thought it might be sunday night, but boy, some of the forecast models are speeding things up a little bit. Cloudy today. Uh, cloudy to mostly cloudy again. This is more just cloud cover just racing across us but mild to warm. Were getting an east southeast breeze that will do it. Rain returns saturday. More rain. Heaviest rain will be. I think, marin county north, but the system on late sunday might even be sunday afternoon. Now all the way out, off and on until wednesday will produce some Copious Amounts of rain here initially. Saturday system tends to favor, i think marin county, north Sonoma County. Ill go out on a limb and say cazadero will end up with the most here the sunday night, monday tuesday system, though, would be more towards santa cruz, Santa Cruz Mountains down to monterey and Santa Clara Valley. I think that has a bigger impact farther south on sunday, monday, but the one coming in tomorrow is no doubt more towards marin county, Sonoma County, mendocino, lake, napa. Nothing much happening yet, just a lot of cloud cover racing across. But oh boy, theres a lot going on here. Was that system now more moderate to heavy rain will begin on saturday. Anything today will be light. Itll be to the north. But this system though is really its for this time of year. It is what they call the 97 percentile as far as the amount of abundant moisture. Its loaded with moisture here, 40s and 50s on the temps. With that theres your easterly breeze up in the hills. No doubt about it. And it will be a southeast breeze at the surface that will allow some areas to get into the mid 60s. Today were in the 40s right now, but you can see this system now. It will be a slow mover. And the key is we hope it doesnt stall out. But there could be some rainfall rates of about a half inch to an inch per hour in some of the peak point of when this front moves onshore. Uh, again, its what you get a low level jet stream thats at 5000ft. Boy, you take that moisture and you ramp it up. That deeper moisture and you get a pretty strong jet stream. Around 5000ft. You can squeeze out a lot of rain. Santa cruz mountains, marin, especially around Mount Tamalpais, and of course, up in the Russian River, heaviest amounts over over the next 24 hours will be north. But then i think it starts to even out as we head towards sunday, monday, tuesday and even wednesday. Winter weather advisories out for the mountains that will eventually become a winter storm warning late sunday into monday. Mostly cloudy to cloudy. Some patchy fog looks cloudy today but warmer mid 60s on those temps. Maybe even pushing 66 or 67 from morgan hill down to gilroy or hollister. Rain saturday, maybe a little break sunday, then wind and rain come in sunday and it will be off and on into early next week. All right. Thank you steve.

Well, one state lawmaker from San Francisco wants to make sure all bridges in california remain toll free. If youre walking or riding a bike, state Assemblyman Phil Ting formally introduced his legislation yesterday. It would permanently ban tolls for pedestrians and cyclists on all state owned bridges, as well as the Golden Gate Bridge. At a time when were dealing with Climate Change and were trying to get encourage more people to walk, more people to bike, i cant think of a greater disincentive for that than actually charging a toll for pedestrians and cyclists. Across one of the most famous bridges in our world stadium. State Assembly Member ting says there are no current plans to impose a toll to walk or bike across california. Bridges but he wants a law on the books just in case that idea pops up. However, between 1937 and 1970, pedestrians were charged to walk across the Golden Gate Bridge.

In fact, i can put the map up. Ive just been just like you do with your phone. Kind of. All right. Just kind of scrolling around to see if i see any red. And i dont see anything. Uh. Thats awesome. 24 ill turn this off right. Let me turn that down a little bit. Uh, you know, right. Right now, traffic is moving along very nicely there have been no major issues. Lets go to the bay bridge. You can see that traffic is moving along relatively well. There are no problems here. And if you are driving onto the bridge, it looks good. No no major problems as you drive into the city now at 550, lets bring steve back in. I guess i was going, thank you. Breaker, breaker one heres okay. Copy that. Does anyone watching out there remember cb radios . Ooh. Were you one of those geeks . Yeah i never could afford it when i was young. Understood . Yeah. Okay. Thank you, sir. All right. Uh, we have a cloudy day today, friday, and then rain returns tomorrow. Uh, i dont think much will happen today. If it does, itll be light. But most of this is coming in tomorrow morning. Rain saturday looks pretty good. Rain and maybe even some wind. The jet stream where the pilots are boot scooting right along the pacific. Ill tell you, theyre making great time if theyre coming across from asia, or even i think of hawaii. They go north and then due west and theyre arriving early. Uh, it is cooking right along. So wind and rain will arrive late sunday into monday after by this time next week, i think well say cazadero was the winner. But somebody in the Russian River around Mount Tamalpais, although the Santa Cruz Mountains will certainly do their fair share to be in there as well, with some pretty hefty totals being advertised here. A lot of cloud cover today. Uh, not much else. Its just in advance of that system. But you can see that maybe a little bit to the north. Ill mention it. Mendocino county, lake county, northern sonoma. It doesnt take much when the atmosphere is this juiced, but the system is moving in on saturday. Higher elevations, east wind, northeast or east wind. Eventually at the surface. This will turn more southeast, which means well be on the mild side peninsula san jose, maybe livermore, mid 60s would not surprise. Uh, the deep low, though is lifting northward, but that will drag that system across us almost. It looks like all day saturday. Heaviest amounts look to be about San Francisco, Oakland North on the saturday system. The system on sunday, monday, tuesday i think favors san jose, Santa Cruz Mountains down to monterey, salinas and areas south. Uh, theres there will be a lot of moisture here stacking up. And i think some eight inch amounts are possible after everything is said and done here. Mostly cloudy to cloudy, some patchy fog looks cloudy today, but warmer mid 60s on the temps. Uh across the board here. Warmest temps will be Santa Clara Valley, but getrillioneady. Tomorrow its rain. Maybe a little break sunday morning sunday afternoon, evening all the way into probably wednesday. There will be rain all right. Thank you steve.

A new report showed that foot traffic at ten major gyms was flat, compared to a year ago. The slump affected both the high end facilities and those that are budget friendly.

A lot of people might be heading to the sierra. And theres going to be a lot of weather to talk about. There will be a lot here and up there as well. We have cloudy skies here today. Probably will stay that way if theres any rain, itd be light. Ill mention it, but im not putting it in the, you know, official forecast. Thats more for tomorrow. But heavy cloud, no rain for your friday. We are looking for a mostly cloudy morning. Some patchy fog looks cloudy today. We are looking for mid 60s for some. Thats your system for tomorrow and it will give a widespread rain. Heaviest i think will be San Francisco north 60s. On those temps its all right. Well if you get on muni or bart youre probably saying dont stand so close to me. But this man can tell you whats going on with the travel times. Are theyre going to be any shadows in the rain. Steve.

And i dont see it yet. And some of the usual suspects, like 580 as you drive out. Yeah you know, 580 looks okay. Not exactly the king of pain this morning as you drive into livermore 601. Lets get back to the headlines. Thank you. Sal the bay area preps for another round of rain. Expect to see it for days as back to back storms come through. Ktvu james torres live near the San Pablo Reservoir talking about what we are expected to see this weekend. James ali, good morning to you. Well expect to see the rain start this weekend and certainly expect to see it last for days. Beyond that, as we see these next two storms pretty much back to back slap us here in the bay area. A few weeks ago. Of course, we had to worry about those really heavy gusts of wind up to close to 100 miles an hour for some parts in the area. That helped cause a little more damage and a little more of a mess than we expect to see. But with this next round of storms, were going to focus a little more on the actual rainfall than we are. That wind. We know our ground is very well saturated. Most scientists will tell you thats a pretty good thing, especially after years of drought. Those storms are doing a great job of replenishing our water sources and supplies, and its even better when we have this kind of weather year after year. Its great to see this stream of storms, because to get even up to average conditions, we need 4 or 5 big storms during our winter wet season, which runs from basically december through through march. It may be into into april, so that means we still have a couple more weeks of this wet, wintry weather. However, other experts would warn you about the dangers. Those gusts of winds we know forced large trees to topple over and in some cases, crashing in a homes and bringing down power lines with them. Well, we may not be as gusty and windy as before, but with that ground already so wet, a small little push could bring some of those trees down. Just a few weeks ago, the state reported three storm related deaths. If you are worried about a tree that could be in your front yard or backyard and you wonder what it might do in the middle of a storm, well, you can call an arborist out to check it out. That would be your response ability. You can also call your local city services, and they can help determine if it is best to remove that tree. Reporting live this morning im james torres, ktvu you fox two news okay james thank you. And just a reminder you can track the storm on the ktvu weather app. It has a live interactive radar. We also have a detailed look at how atmospheric rivers form and the problems they can cause. By the way, it is a free download. Time now 604. The marin municipal Water District approved a five Year Strategic Plan on the marin ij reports. The goals outlined in the five year plan include reduce reducing water use, increasing water supply and seeking support from state and federal agencies to develop Regional Water supplies. Also, that plan aims to reduce water waste across the county. Marin depends a lot on rain water for its water supply. Well, the city of antioch is trying to add more oversight in response to the Police Departments racist text messaging scandal. The new Police Oversight commission was created and Seven Members were sworn in just this week. The volunteer board will make recommendations on a wide range of Police Department policies. They start their work two years after the fbi started its investigation of the Police Department, after officers were accused of sending racist Text Messages and abusing their power. We have made history tonight, but history Means Nothing to people. If we dont make progress. My belief is that we will make progress. We will have transparency. We will have accountability, and hopefully a model, a Community Policing that is nonbiased and serves all residents of antioch equitably. City leaders say this Oversight Commission of volunteer is just part of the citys reform efforts. San Francisco Oakland and berkeley also have Police Oversight commissions. Our time now 605 opponents of a San Francisco ballot measure meant to increase Police Staffing. Theyre hoping new ads will boost their message. Now, supervisor matt dorsey was joined by the police union and other opponents of that measure. Supporters of prop b on the march ballot say it would set minimum Staffing Levels and required the citys budget to have enough money to retain the current officers. But the opponents say that is misleading ing. They claim its a way to raise taxes. In my view, this is a slap in the face to every san franciscan who cares about Public Safety in San Francisco. This is a majority of the board of supervisors is telling san franciscans that with our 14. 6 billion budget, we dont have enough money to hire even minimum Police Staffing levels. That is not fiscally responsible. That is galling. Now, matt dorsey wrote the original proposition, but he withdrew support after supervisor ahsha safai amended it to allow for potential future tax measures. Now, supervisor safai, who, by the way, is running for mayor, says that not guaranteeing funding for the department would be irresponsible considering the citys budget deficit. San francisco could soon apologize to its black residents for its role in decades of discrimination. A group of residents addressed the citys board of supervisors yesterday, asking them to adopt a resolution that would have the board and the city apologize to black residents and their descendants. The group says the city should apologize for past structural discrimination in targeted acts of violence and atrocities. The resolution comes as the city debates whether to give its black residents reparations for slavery. A former ucsf administrator has been sentenced to 20 months in prison for stealing 1. 5 million in tuition payments. 55 year old sandra lee will will also be required to pay back the 1. 5 million. Shell also be under supervised release for three years after shes out of prison. Lay pleaded guilty to diverting tuition payments to her personal accounts while she worked at ucsf. Our time now. 607a plan to bring Driverless Cars to the peninsula. Getting some pushback this morning, the San Mateo County board of supervisors supports legislation at the state level to allow local governments to decide if they want Driverless Cars on their streets. Now, it comes as state regulators recently approved the application by waymo to expand service into San Mateo County. Supervisors say the Public Utilities commission never asked them what they thought about having Driverless Cars on their streets before they authorized waymo to do it last thing i want to do is to make highway 101 a beaker in waymos science project. Want to make sure we have speeds going at about 65 miles an hour . Um, want to make sure, uh, that people are safe and look at San Francisco. Theyve had a multitude of problems. Were going to fix that loophole in the law, and were going to let cities and counties , um, start putting ordinances together, laws together at the local level as they see fit for their particular community. It may be different, um, from one community to another. Now waymo in a statement said it did provide information about the company to the board of supervisors before applying for that permit to operate in San Mateo County, 608 is the time and keeping an eye on the roads is Sal Castaneda. Hopefully theres a little bit of friday light out there, especially ahead of this president s day holiday. Thats right. And you know, i think that because of the holiday and im looking at some of the only slow traffic that i see in the bay area there, ali and dave, because of monday being a holiday for a lot of people, we do have some slow traffic out there, but not much of it. This is westbound 580 at 20 miles an hour. Thats the slowest we can find, but i think some people are making it a four day weekend. You dont see any slowing. And here it is, 609. Yesterday at this time, it was backed up all the way out to the maze. So definitely its going to be lighter. And i think on this friday its going to be even lighter as you drive throughout the bay area. So its good. But just remember that this evening trying to get out of town, its going to be much different. The commutes are not balanced. On a day like today. Its light in the morning and really busy in the afternoon. 609 lets go back to the desk. Thank you sal. Kansas city Police Released more details on their investigation of a deadly parade shooting. What we know about the suspects as the Community Comes together to honor the victims and money problems forcing the Trauma Center at Regional Medical center in san jose to close what the employees there plan to do to try to keep that center open in the economy is simply not working for millions of hard working families. Theyre working harder than ever and they still cant make enough to get by to afford food and medicine to even keep a roof over their heads. We need to build more housing thats truly affordable. We need to address this terrible epidemic of homelessness. We need to invest in good paying jobs, union jobs and investments in our future. This, this is why im running for the us senate. Im adam schiff and i approve this message. Santa clara county, raising concerns about access to important emergency medical services. Ktvu is andre senior here in the studio now to tell us about about the medical facility thats closing and how patient care in one san jose neighborhood will be affected. Andre. Well, dave, its an announcement that is certain to have a huge impact on thousands of people. San joses Regional Medical center is closing down its Trauma Center this summer, citing citing recent changes in hospital urgent care. Many hospital workers are worried about how that closure will affect Patients Living in East San Jose. Now those concerned workers include members of the California Nurses Association, who say People Living in East San Jose who go to the Trauma Center will have to travel all the way across town to valley Medical Center in West San Jose or they would be forced to travel 15 miles up highway 101 to stanford Medical Center in palo alto, depending on what time of day youre having, your medical emergency, you could be stuck in 15 to 45 minutes of traffic to get to the nearest hospital. Well, the san jose Regional Medical center says the number of patients going into its Trauma Center has dropped dramatically in recent years. At the same time, more patients are going into other areas of its emergency room. Experts say hospital administrators are under the same economic pressure as other businesses, and they are often forced to make tough decisions tied to the bottom line. Of course, health care is a business, and they need to keep their lights on. And if services could be better provided for emergency basis as opposed to a stemi or a Trauma Center and reallocation of resources is necessary, thats probably mostly a financial decision thats also backed by the numbers. However, members of the California Nurses Association say they plan to lead the fight against closing the Trauma Center, which is now scheduled for this august. That fight will likely include hospital worker demonstrations outside the san jose Medical Center during the next few months. Those demonstrations plan to demand the hospital come up with a new plan, ali. All right. Thank you. Andre. Well happening today, san Francisco City workers are expected to rally outside of San Francisco General Hospital to demand better working conditions. Union workers argue that the city spends 5 billion each year on contracts, most of them awarded to people based outside of San Francisco. They say 1 in 10 contract requests are due to lack of staff, with the department of Public Health being impacted the most. We reached out to the city for comment and are waiting to hear back our time is now. 615. Concerns were raised by federal lawmakers about the plans in Solano County to build a new city backed by billionaires from silicon valley. Now, bay area congressman Mike Thompson and John Garamendi hosted a forum about the plans to build whats called California Forever. A new Development Near Travis Air Force base. The lawmakers say the organizers have not answered basic questions like where would the necessary water come from . Or where would sewage go to . And they may be the greatest people in the world with the most lofty ideas and an old morals. But i believe that you trust but verify, and theres nothing that they have done that leads me to believe theyre trustworthy, and theres nothing in their proposal that will allow for verification. Now the leaders of the California Forever project say good paying jobs will be created by this new community that will also have affordable housing, parks and solar farm rouz. Time now is 616. Here is Sal Castaneda keeping an eye on the roads. What does it look like . How does it look like out there, sal . Well, it looks pretty good, you know. Um i think its because of the, you know, dave and ali. It looks good. I think its because of the holiday. So the bay bridge, uh, saying the drivers, you dont have to turn on the red light. It looks great heading over to San Francisco. No metering lights. Thats unusual. This is a look at interstate 880 north and south. That looks very good. And if youre driving on 92, it also looks good. So were been looking around. There is a new crash southbound 880 at 238. That one just popped up. Were going to investigate. And now theres a little bit of a backup starting there. Six 718 lets bring steve back in with todays weather. Thank you. Kind sir. Yes, sir. All right. A lot of cloud cover here if theres any rain to be light today. Its more coming in tomorrow. Is the main factor. Then again sunday afternoon, evening. Uh, speeding up. I think some of the projections, which were originally late sunday i think is coming in before that. But today its a lot of cloud cover and mild though were getting an east southeast breeze. You can see some activity well, to the north, mendocino county, lake county, northern Sonoma County wouldnt surprise me, but the front still has a ways to go. And its a its a good one. Im not you know i dont candy coat it here 50s on some of the temps mainly 40s upper 40s on the temps a roaring jet stream that is the river of air and that is enhancing that system. Now the upper low is lifting northward, but it will drag that system across. And it has what we call deep moisture. The system coming in saturday, i think its all about marin county, San Francisco, oakland, north. Im using the whats called the canadian model. Its jim cmc ten kilometer precip accumulation. Why . Because its been spot on. Gold star for the last two times i used it. So why would i change it now . I refuse to use the gfs. Its just awful. Uh, but lesser amounts to the south. And then well go with this system on sunday, monday, tuesday. Thats all about you, santa cruz, Santa Cruz Mountains, more so than the saturday system down to monterey and even salinas and central coast. I think thats sunday night, monday. Tuesday will be more about you, but everyones in on some rain starting tomorrow, mostly cloudy to cloudy, some patchy fog. Looks cloudy today, but warmer mid 60s on the temps. So today is the day if you need to get out and just todays the day. Saturday looks like a rain day. Theres just no way around it. Maybe sunday morning well get a break. More wind and rain sunday afternoon, evening and then off and on all the way into tuesday. If not wednesday. Okay, steve. Thank you.

Well, Kansas City Police are revealing and sharing more information about what may have led up to the deadly shooting that happened during the super bowl victory parade. Fox news Kennedy Hayes live in kansas city this morning. Kennedy. We know that two people were detained in connection with the shooting. Have charges been filed yet against them or others . Ali no one has been charged yet, but Kansas City Police say they plan on filing charges soon. Now we do know that two people are in custody right now. Originally it was three and those two are juveniles. We also know the relationship between the suspects is still under investigation. But police say the motive of the shooting was not terrorism or extremism. It appears to be a dispute between several people that ended in gunfire. Authorities add the violence took place mostly on the west side of Union Station wednesday, despite initial reports. Gunfire erupted in multiple locations, and it wasnt just police who ran towards the threat. Officials thank the chiefs fans who tried to help tackle suspects and called for an end to gun violence. Unfortunately, this is not the first shooting at a parade in our country or a rally that is certainly a tragic incident for us because we dont have experience with them. You ask the chief at the outset, what is this kansas city . Well weve had parades like this before. We had one last year without this type of incident. We had a Kansas City Royals victory parade where we had almost no arrests in 2015. So i dont think in any way that this is kansas city, a vigil was held yesterday night for healing and to remember lisa lopez galvan, a mother of two, killed in the shooting. Police say more than 20 others were injured, half of them under under age, 16 years old and doctors say all children wounded are expected to make a full recovery. And despite the tragedy, the mayor says they will be moving forward with planning their Saint Patricks day parade next month in kansas city, missouri.

Im allie rasmus and good morning im dave clark. It is friday morning february 16th. Lets go right to Steve Paulson. Plenty to tell you about on this friday morning. Have you stepped outside mr. I did and there is a cool breeze this morning okay. Thank you sir. It is cloudy out there and itll stay cloudy. The system is really on its way for saturday. Then again sunday evening and probably all the way into the middle of next week. So heavy cloud, no rain today. Okay. Mostly cloudy morning. Some patchy fog. Looks cloudy today, but warmer some mid 60s on the temps. Thats your system for saturday and its a good one. It will be heaviest north of i think the golden gate. But everyone will get in on rain 60s on temps. Well yesterday your commute might have been the king of pain, but i think today were all right, sal. We are. I mean, its so empty out there. You might feel like youre walking on the moon, steve, because theres not a lot going on right now. Look. Look for yourself. Yeah, i could probably count the cars in this picture, but this afternoon, a lot of people are going to be getting away for the Holiday Weekend. In fact, some people may have already gotten away. Yesterdays evening commute was pretty tough. This is a look at interstate 880 now southbound 880. As you approach 2. 38, there is a crash. Theyre clearing from the lanes and there is some slow traffic there. 6. 31 lets go back to the desk okay sal. Thank you. It has now been more than a year since the city of oaklands had a Permanent Police chief. Community leaders, oakland residents pretty frustrated about it. And confused about the process to find a new police chief. Ktvu is Bailey Ocarroll joins us now to update us on the timeline and that process to find a new police chief in oakland. Thats right. Good morning guys. A lot of people in oakland extremely frustrated with the state of everything right now and the lack of a police chief. Its now been more than a year since the city has had a chief. So lets take a step back and look at how oakland got here. So we all start on february 15th of 2023. Thats when oakland mayor xiang tao fired. Then police chief Lauren Armstrong. The city then tasked the Police Commission with finding a replacement for him. Then, on december 14th of last year, ten months after armstrong was fired, the commission submitted three candidates to the mayor for consideration, including the chief who was fired, Lauren Armstrong and assistant chief from tucson, arizona, and a candidate from the san leandro Police Department. Less than two weeks later, on december 27th, the mayor denied all of those options. Former Oakland Police chief anne kirkpatrick, who was also fired from her role, believes that the Police Commission is playing politics with the mayors office, and i squarely put a great deal of responsibility on the Police Commission, on they, um, i think politically they advanced three names that they knew who they were trying to buttonhole, trying to get chief armstrong put in that position. Uh, the mayor did not take that bait. And so they played, uh, games and that should never have occurred. So the question many are asking now is what happens next . Or how can oakland move in the right direction . Well, the process started over as soon as the mayor denied those three names. The next round of candidates had until february ninth to apply. The commission will sift through those options options and deliver who they believe to be the best options to the mayor. On march 1st. Now, in an interview with ktvu, mayor tao said that if the city was still without a police chief come the end of 2023, which of course has already come and gone , that she would declare a state of emergency to get a chief, well, she has yet to declare one of those given the new names are due on her desk in two weeks. Its likely she will hold off until after that. Back to you. Thank you. Bailey well, a measure on the November Ballot in california would change a labor law in the state. The private attorneys general act allows employees to file class action lawsuits over some labor law violations. A coalition of business groups qualified a ballot measure to repeal the law. Labor groups say the law is important because workers who claim labor law violations like wage theft can ask the state Labor Commission to step in and investigate it. Our time now, 634. A bill aimed at regular voting social media to protect young people appears to be moving forward in the us senate. Whats called the kids Online Safety act now has enough support to pass in the senate. It would require Digital Companies to do more to prevent their sites and apps from endangering kids. But the critics say its an overreach that would give the government too much power over free speech online, even if it does become law, it will be among the most significant Online Safety statutes since the childrens Online Privacy protection act that took effect in the year 2000. There is a new effort to help california High School Students who are experiencing a physical or Mental Health crisis. State lawmakers are considering a bill that would reduce the graduation requirements for seniors that are dealing with serious physical or mental problems. Supporters of the measure say these students should not be penalized, since they are often forced to miss class due to physical limitations. Deep depression and other issues. Our time now. 635. Theres a new proposal in the state legislature targeting organize retail theft. Its called the California Retail theft reduction act. It would keep repeat offenders in jail and custody and increase the jail time for suspects identified as professional retail thieves. The lawmakers say theyre looking on working on solutions to deal with retail theft at all levels. We have this issue from big box retailers on the organized side, as well as small neighborhood grocers and Convenience Stores that focus on these same issues that may or may not be the organized element. So we will make sure that we respond accordingly. And the Public Safety issue will take these issues and these ideas seriously and put forward a robust package in the coming weeks. Now, this new legislation is the latest of the 15 to 20 proposed bills addressing retail crime. Now the measure would not require voter approval. Each element of the bill could be enacted by either the governor or the state legislature. Its a Holiday Weekend, and plenty of people have booked trips to the sierra and lake tahoe. Yeah, the ski resorts, the hotels, the restaurants. Theyre ready to welcome people back to the sierra. But it could be a snowy, stormy drive up to the mountains, depending on when you plan to go. The owner of a brewery in South Lake Tahoe says busy Holiday Weekends are essential for their future for their businesses. Theyre prepared and excited about the crowds. We prepare the whole restaurant for that, right . We bring in more food, weve got more product on board. It really is our livelihood. Its what we depend on and i will tell you out cold water, we bring it and we bring it out for those people. And we want the visitors and locals alike, public works crews in the area have been out clearing excess snow, laying salt and sand on the roads, and resorts and businesses are also prepping for popular winter activities like tubing and of course, skiing and snowboarding. That looks fun. Yeah, well, as wet weather and snow in the mountains approaches for the weekend, our meteorologists will be keeping you updated with the fox local app. Well have special forecasts to make sure you know about the latest storms and weather conditions. Just download the fox local app. Its a free app for your smart tv. Then you can select ktvu. Youre ready to do all that in the snow, arent you . In a couple of weeks. All right. Okay time is 638. So here. Now, sal, do me a favor. Dont stand. Dont stand. So close to me. Well, im on the other studio, dave. Its kind of impossible. Thats true. This is going to go on all morning. I think it will go on all morning. And it looks like the bay bridge. Boy, i was feeling alone, but seems im not so lonely being alone here at the bay bridge. You can see the traffic is going to be, you know i like it. However, i do want to warn you in all seriousness that this evening were expecting a big commute. A lot of people will be for president s day. Do get on the road on friday and theyre going to tahoe or theyre going wherever theyre going. Just make sure that you know that if you are planning to get on the road this evening, it will be crowded. Thats all. I mean, sometimes ive done it just knowing exactly what im facing, and i bring a different attitude. Southbound 880. We had an earlier crash at 238. Thats been cleared and things are recovering rather quickly. On days like today. Once the crash clears the lanes, the lanes. Pardon me, it is much better. Lets talk to steve now at 639. Thank you kindly, sir. Yes, sir. All right. A lot of cloud cover today. The system though for us is going to arrive saturday morning. But there could be some light activity. Nothing big, you know, but mainly saturday morning is the. When this first system arrives. Then well have rain sunday evening all the way. Probably off and on all the way out to next wednesday, 4050 on the temps there. It is. Its tapped into deep, deep moisture and itll swing through this. This looks to favor about Golden Gate Bridge north for saturday. But saturday does look like a rain day. You can see some of the heavier amounts being advertised here, no doubt about it. San francisco, oakland, fairfield, north. Lesser amounts south. What about us . Sunday night . Monday. Thatll be for you. Uh, thats the system that will probably be more towards the santa cruz area, Santa Cruz Mountains down to monterey and central coast. But everyones in on some activity and Winter Weather advisories kick in tomorrow for the mountains and probably a winter storm warning by sunday night. So today is the day if you need to go, uh, itll be okay for friday. If youre going up to the mountains, just get back early tomorrow. 60s on the tens, maybe some mid 60s with a little east southeast breeze here. So on the mild side well see a repeat performance of that sunday as a strong south wind kicks in again. But then off and on rain sunday night monday tuesday. All right steve thank you. Time now 640. Theres a push to keep california bridges free for tourists, pedestrians and cyclists. Well tell you why. Some lawmakers want to make sure people who are on foot walking dont have to pay a toll, and an fbi informant now facing charges of lying about a bribery scheme tied to president bidens impeached inquiry.

One state lawmaker from San Francisco says he wants to make sure all bridges in california remain toll free for bicyclists and pedestrians. Assemblyman phil ting formally introduced this legislation yesterday. It would permanently ban tolls for pedestrians and cyclists on all state owned bridges, which includes the Golden Gate Bridge. At a time when were dealing with Climate Change and were trying to get encourage more people to walk, more people to bike, i cant think of a greater disincentive for that than actually charging a toll for pedestrians and cyclists. Across one of the most famous bridges in our world, ting says there is no current plan to impose a toll to walk or bike across california bridges, but he wants a law on the books just in case the idea pops up. However, pedestrians were charged to cross the Golden Gate Bridge between the years of 1937 and 1970.

The family decided the scholarship should be for a student at ginas alma mater, san jose state university.

Ahead of this president s day holiday. Hopefully not as many people out there yet. Sal. Oh, thats right, its looking nice and empty for the morning commute.

Surface breeze is east southeast. That will make for a mild day. Santa clara valley, east bay, maybe peninsula. As this system is inching closer. But with the south wind in advance of it, thats going to make for some mid 60s, i think here this will be a pretty good rain maker for, i think, San Francisco, oakland, north. Tomorrow everyone will get in on some rain, but the system coming in late sunday into monday, tuesday i think will be more focused towards the Santa Cruz Mountains down to monterey. But everyone looking for rain. Look at that. I mean, youre seeing some pretty good amount that thatd be two and a half in the Russian River on saturday. So well get a break late saturday night, early sunday. Then the next system comes in sunday afternoon, evening and may stick around all the way through. Next wednesday is the way its looking here. Winter weather advisories are out in the mountains. It will become a winter storm. Watch. Theres 4 a. M. Saturday, so their moves in most of the day. So theres 9 00. Its still showing rain. A little bit of a break late saturday. Now the system is racing in. Uh, originally it was held off until late sunday. Looks like its speeding up the arrival on sunday. Sunday night. Now watch monday two tuesday. One more on wednesday. Yes one more on wednesday. Why everyones only saying through tuesday is one of lifes little mysteries to me.
