A better system comes thursday and friday and Even Stronger on sunday. Colder as well with the fog the big story through 10 00. By this evening we will start to increase the opportunity for rain. There was a little bit trying to show up offshore but this is all. Just very brief if anything. 40s on the temperatures or 50s with most locations running in the lower 40s to the mid40s. American canyon 47, napa is 42, 48 petaluma, 49 san rafael and tiburon 46. The easterly breeze at the napa airport gusting up to 60 Miles Per Hour coming back from the delta really bringing in that fog creeping back. Not much rain with the first system just very light with a little bit to the south. Suffice to say it looks like a pattern change is coming. We are starting with fog and cloud coverage today.

Florida and look what has happened since. Of course outrage, sadness, morning for the families that lost these wonderful students, teachers and administrators but beyond that these High School Students 17, 18yearolds old and some even younger have really become a national voice, a powerful voice on the issue of gun safety in schools. I often wonder when this moment might occur or whether it would occur. Litany of mass shootings, massacres. Sad to say theres a mountainous setting in where terrible things occurred in places like las vegas and texas and other states. Youte wonder is killing those innocent children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in connecticut will that be the Tipping Point . Will america finally say enough .

Things can change like this. This is video of salman in a hooded shirt a day after the massacre. She told investigators she did not know anything about her husbands plans to attack the nightclub and federal prosecutors believed she did know and did nothing to stop him. I have learned that the u.

Her husband pledged allegiance during the standoff. 49 people were killed and omar mateen died in the shoot out with police. Noor salman is being held in dublin. Her family declined to comment. This woman left the home ignoring reporters questions and drove away. I felt if you were married to somebody or have a child with somebody, she may have had some thoughts about this and if she had just said something ahead of time it would have saved lives and she may not know anything and you know i hope thats the case. In a statement, Orlando Police chief john meana said today there is som
Several broken bones in his back. Reporter beverly smith, a court clerk, was released from the hospital, giving reporters a thumbs up and waving. She suffered only minor injuries in this mornings alarming elevator malfunction at the criminal Justice Center that some at first mistakenly thought was caused by an explosion. No one told us anything, but we were on another floor and we heard a loud commotion, a loud boom. Very loud, like a reporter investigators explained the bizarre chain of events this way. Sergeant owens was in the car on the left and it breached the shafts concrete ceiling. A heavy structure that is part of the elevators machine room. Heavy debris rained down on to the righthand elevator in which court clerk smith was riding forcing that car down. The question is, what triggered the event . The operation or the malfunction of the elevator is something that were not clear, so were calling for the experts to look into it. Reporter the incident caused widespread chaos at p
