The thing to look at his what is going on on mount st. Helena today. The hour before it reported at 42 Miles Per Hour, virtually half the wind speed tonight compared to last night. It seems like good news to me. It is still windy, the red flag warning is still there but the wind is not as bad. We look at the wind model that tells you everything, after midnight things cool off and you see at 2 am they start to fire up, it is not as aggressive on the central and south bay as it was last night. Mostly in the Northeast Quadrant and by 9 am it is gone. Some really positive news, we are not out of the woods on this thing but if we can get through noon tomorrow with what we are seeing outside now with some of the current wind speeds i am feeling good. Hopefully it will stay that way. When i come back we will look at the forecast that includes less wind and cool overnight lows. Thousands of customers are facing another night of outages as part of the pg e Public Safety power shutoffs. Crews ar

Any objective standard, judge barrett deserves to be confirmed to the Supreme Court. The American People agree in just a few minutes, she will be on the Supreme Court. , President Trump is set to host the swearing in at the white house tonight, with Justice Clarence thomas giving the first of the two odes, this is a live picture of the scene there on the south lawn, you cant tell, but there is a Group Gathering for the swearing in and we have seen, for the most part, most of them wearing masks, and the chairs on the lawn, it is hard to see because it is so dark, but the chairs on the lawn are spread farther apart than they were when barretts nomination was first announced. Lawmakers say there is s
Around for a little while longer lets check in with john and get more about that. Yeah guys winds definitely still present for a large part of the bay area while some of us have calmed down so its a mixed bag this morning as opposed to yesterdays generally windy conditions all across the region. We have seen some improvements and well continue to see those in the days to come so that your good news for sure you look outside from center tower shows you just how clear those skies are a brilliant sunrise whether youre at the coast or further inland as marine layer, not really a factor this morning, its dry and it is breezy for many areas. The combination of those 2 factors resulting in the heightened fire danger for especially the north bay and then upper elevations in the east bay, our breezy a spots right now being Vacaville Atlas peak calistoga and sonoma danville in petaluma also notably on the breezy side. Later this morning still windy for these same areas while still calm for the o
