authorized vehicles are allowed on the streets of downtown wuhan. australia announced one confirmed case with others pending. there are three coronavirus cases in france and as we told you yesterday, the u.s. reported its second case. reporter anna iliopoulos on the growing outbreak. >> reporter: multiple cases of the coronavirus in the united states. doctors in chicago say they are treating a woman in her 60s who recently traveled to wuhan, china, the suspected epicenter of the outbreak. >> she called ahead to alert her doctor to the illness. rather than presenting to the clinic or an emergency department. this is exactly what any potentially ill returning traveler from wuhan should do. >> reporter: the patient was hospitalized primarily for, quote, infection control. a washington state man is also being treated after a trip to central china and is said to be doing well. health officials admit they are monitoring dozens of other people across more than 20 states. friday also saw confirmation of the first european cases in france. more cases are expected, mostly because of france's open borders. >> plenty of people have layovers on their way back to france, so you can see how difficult it is in our world to close borders. in fact, it's impossible. >> reporter: but the overwhelming majority of cases are in china where more than 1000 are ill and dozens have died. the government there has expanded full or partial travel lockdowns to at least 10 cities. several popular tourist destinations are closed, like the forbidden city in beijing and shanghai, disneyland. a massive scale quarantine is unprecedented and public health officials around the world are watching to see if their efforts pay off. anna iliopoulos, foxnews. >> we checked with health officials in the bay area. alameda county says it has screened fewer than ten people thus far. no one has tested positive. but some test results have not been made available just yet. contra costa health reports testing one person, negative results there. san francisco and santa clara have no cases. alameda county activated its incident command response in coordination with other bay area health departments. >> this is above and beyond our day to day response and we need to coordinate more and pull in some resources. >> health officials say those with flulike symptoms should call their doctors first and not just show up in the waiting room. stay right here with ktvu for continuing coverage of the coronavirus outbreak. we'll bring you new developments on air and online as soon as we get those. now to the impeachment trial of president trump. his defense team begins opening arguments this morning. attorney jay sekulow indicates the defense strategy might be, less is more. you are taking a live look at what's happening in chambers right now. they are doing a morning prayer, and then will move straight to the agenda of the day. and here comes the opening. all right. let's go back to what president trump's attorneys are saying. they are saying this could be less is more. what does that mean? they say that means the defense may not need to use up all 24 hours that have been given to each side to present their cases. the house managers wrapped up their initial arguments yesterday. they accuse president trump of obstructing their investigation into his dealings with ukraine. >> this is a determination by president trump, that he wants to be all powerful. only his will goes. he is a dictator. this must not stand. >> we've got more than enough to resolve this matter right now. and i don't think we need additional witnesses. based on the evidence, the house has not proven their case. >> a twist to this story may be a stolen recording that is just now surfacing. president trump is apparently overheard telling a group of supporters at a dinner to oust then ukraine ambassador marie yovanovitch. however, a source within the defense team says the recording will not impact its case. time now, 7:06. happening today, tens of thousands of people are expected in san francisco for the annual walk for life. it is one of the largest antiabortion rights events on the west coast beach each year. the rally begins at 12:30 and will be followed with a walk down market street. one of the main speakers today is the national director of priests for life, which describes itself as the world's largest catholic pro-life organization. the trump administration says california's requirement that private health insurance cover abortions violates federal law. the white house is threatening to cut off federal funding arguing that california is discriminating against healthcare companies that do not want to provide coverage for abortion services. senator dianne feinstein says the administration is giving texas money for family planning, even though that state blocks medicaid recipients from choosing planned parenthood as their healthcare provider. pro-life groups are hailing president trump's historic appearance at the march for life rally in washington, d.c. he became the first sitting president yesterday to attend the event that has been held each year since the landmark roe versus wade supreme court ruling back in 1973. organizers say that rally is the largest annual human rights demonstration in the world. past presidents addressed the crowd by phone, video, and president trump told the crowd his administration has worked to limit abortion access. we are more than a week away from super bowl liv in miami, but 49ers faithful all fired up to take on the chiefs. coach shanahan said the team had a very solid practice at levi stadium yesterday. this, by the way, will be quarterback jimmy g.'s first time going to the super bowl but his first one as a starter. jimmy garoppolo says his past experience will help him this time around. >> i think just when you get down there immediately, the availability and media and obligations you have to do, obviously being through that, that's a little bit different with time management and everything. having seen all that and being up close and personal, i think all of that will help me. >> the team plans ahead to miami tomorrow. then let the hike begin with just a week before the big game. you can of course watch super bowl liv right here on ktvu fox 2 leading up to the game. our team in miami will be covering all of the angles. watch for mark, claudine, and joe all next week in miami. >> looking forward to it. while football is on our mind, baseball is just around the corner. this morning, we have the oakland a's annual fan fest. we have elissa harrington live at jack london square with what is on deck for fence today. always a really fun event. >> reporter: good morning. behind me, we are seeing a lot of balloons. you can see organizers are getting set up. the event starts at 4:30 but we already have a fan in line. this is robert. you have been a fan your whole life. who are you most excited to see today? >> i like to see matt olson, matt chapman, and jesus lezaro. >> why do you want to make sure you are the first one here and why do you love being an a's fan? >> i like the bay area team, a's versus giants. battle of the bay. >> that's right. i grew up in the bay area, too. battle of the bay, that was my absolute favorite thing. let me show you video while i tell you what's going to happen today. event starts at 9:30 and is free and open to the public there will be a lot of days of free activities. the event ends at 3:00. there will be players, coaches, and oakland a's alumni here to meet fans, take pictures, and sign autographs. some big names include pitcher liam hendriks, marcus simeon, and third baseman, matt chapman. general manager bob melvin will also be meeting with fans. this is an event for the whole family. expect to see food trucks, live music, kids area with games and giveaways and plenty of a's memorabilia on sale. when the event begins at 9:30, fans are encouraged to line up right here along the waterfront for the welcome walk. that's when the players and coaches will be arriving for fan fest. fans are encouraged to line the walkway and clap and cheer them on as they make their way to the event. reporting live in oakland, elissa harrington, ktvu 2. back to you. >> good to have that. when i was a kid they would have been front and center just like that one going, where are they? where are they? >> they are waiting. rosemary, they will have pretty good weather for fan fest. >> big crowds. a lot of fun. the players are out there, free food trucks. may i say it again? free. the a's host that. so that's awesome. and we've got dry weather in store for a's fan fest today. most of us will remain dry for most of the day. as we get into the evening hours, that begins to shift. and the fog, take a look at that from ktvu. patchy dense fog reported in our valley locations, if you do have an early morning drive. i think you are also going to notice it feels really mild out there this morning. temperatures in the low 50s over areas of santa rosa. san francisco reporting 54. 55 in oakland where we do have clear skies out there and are a little bit cooler. 47 degrees outside of your door in livermore and san jose at 54. temperatures are up by several degrees over yesterday. up by 12 in napa, 8 in hayward, 7 in novato. here is a view of the fog getting into the visibility issues. open reporting visibility down to a quarter-mile. we took a live picture of the golden gate bridge where you can see the dark gray indicating pretty thick fog. half moon bay, less than 2 miles. santa rosa, a mile there. going into the sacramento central valley this morning, you'll find it as well. fog this morning, temperatures up. most of us in the 50s. we are waiting on that rain. it is going to come late for most of us and does not look like it's going to be much. here is a look at our futurecast model. let me run you through this very quickly. in the afternoon, the north bay and lake county have a shot at light rain but the central and south bay are likely to remain dry. here we are at midnight, and we are still waiting on this wave to move through. it's going to come through in the overnight hours. when i come back, new details on this, how much we will get. your extended highs and afternoon forecast coming up. coming up, new information in a case that involves a missing san francisco man. still ahead, my police are investigating the case as a homicide. and the niners player that is already signaling to refuse a visit

loaded for 4 bucks. delivered exclusively with uber eats. 15 for 3 bucks or loaded for 4 bucks. there are those who will say thatoo fat.: too skinny. too hard. too soft. too old. too much. too unexpected. too limited. and to them we say too bad. because at kaiser permanente, we believe that everyone deserves the right to thrive. san francisco police have a man in custody who they say may be responsible for the death of a missing 20-year-old. 21-year-old danilo baratzka is in jail on one count of homicide. police say 20-year-old amir alkhraisat had been found dead and was last seen january 28th. friend told his family that he was planning on eating with him on the day he was last seen. his father says he caught up with baratzka after his son's death. >> i said, okay. are you sure my son is okay? you are the last one that was with my boy. everybody has seen you with him. i hope he is okay. >> i think if you have the name and number of the person last seen with your son, you need to pull them in. >> police say that his son's body was spotted on treasure island. they also accuse police of not taking the case seriously until they publicized the case. police are asking anyone with other information to comport. b.a.r.t. who were attacked on a station platform are upset after losing a lawsuit against transit agencies. several people were attacked by a mob of teens at civil station. earlier this month, the court rejected an appeal in a similar case from another passenger who says the same group attacked her and told her cell phone. the court ruled that b.a.r.t. cannot be held liable to passenger safety and not on a train. time now, 7:17. time to head over to rosemary who is busy, studying on the very latest. >> i am. we have a lot of cloud cover out there this morning. patchy fog, you'll notice temperatures are warmer this morning. if you are thinking about getting out to maybe walk the dog or, i don't know, go for a run, you are going to notice. giving you a view of the cloud cover and fog this morning. not so much in the way of rain. we do have that coming although it does not look to be a whole lot. with this warmer air in place, snow levels are expected to be high. here is a look at the temperatures we have outside, starting in the north bay where in this time of year we could easily be in the upper 20s to low 30s. 52 right now in penn grove, 53 in petaluma. we'll take a tour around the area. 51 in moraga, 50 in danville. again, our valley locations, even areas over oakland are reporting some pretty thick fog this morning. if you do have an early morning commute, be prepared. 51 right now in san jose. closer to the coast, you've got 49 degrees at capitola. and along the peninsula, 52 in san mateo, 52 degrees in san carlos and 53 degrees over areas of menlo park. a lot of 50s this morning in san francisco as well. off to a relatively mild start. as we get into the afternoon, temperatures will be in the low to mid-to upper 60s. we have not been in the upper 60s in quite some time. that is going to feel nice for some of us. giving you a look at futurecast, going back to that possibility of rain. notice as we get into the afternoon, light showers, more so over areas of the north bay, lake county, and further north than that. central and south bay, spotty, light shower activity not out of the question, but you can see here it's not going to be a whole lot. and we are not going to have to deal with rain throughout the course of today for most. don't need to cancel any plans. here is a look at midnight where we are seeing a few showers to the north. as we get into the overnight hours, it does begin to shift and we'll have scattered showers as we begin sunday morning before we dry out. as far as rainfall amounts, not a lot. a few one hundredths are a possibility over areas like san jose, five hundredths of an inch, maybe a quarter for santa rosa. 51 degrees in santa rosa. we'll go into the upper 60s for the south bay. 626 expected over southbay and 64 for the inner east bay. if you are going to tahoe this morning, mostly cloudy and 41 degrees at blue canyon. that's a warm start for blue canyon. on the other hand, truckee, below freezing at about 48. getting into the afternoon today and into tomorrow, temperatures will range in the 40s with a mix of rain and snow. there is no advisory for travel and snow advisories are expected to remain fairly high. thinking about getting out there to do some skiing, you will come across more rain than snow. here is a look at the weekend where we are looking at the weather. we could pass this system and there is no chance for rain until about tuesday. right now, it looks like the north bay. >> all right. well, we'll have to wait for it. it just keeps coming. lunar new year celebrations are about to kickoff across the bay area. we tell you how san francisco's chinatown is planning to celebrate the year of the rat. new details on a powerful explosion that rocked a houston neighborhood that killed two people and leveled an entire building. and here is a look outside. you can see it is still a little gray, a little foggy. people still have

negotiations with the united states to restore the 2015 nuclear agreement. authorities in turkey say 22 people have been killed and more than 1000 injured after a strong earthquake work the usgs says the 6.7 magnitude earthquake struck in turkey yesterday. that quake was followed by several aftershocks, the strongest being a 5.1. turkish authorities say many people may still be trapped in glass buildings. rescue workers today are continuing the search for people underneath the rubble. authorities in texas are looking into circumstances surrounding a warehouse explosion that killed two people. police say a warehouse used to make plastics in houston exploded early yesterday morning. two employees at the building who arrived early for work were killed in the blast, 20 others were injured. the blast was so strong that it moved homes right off of their foundations. neighbors showed off holes in their homes, shattered windows, and garage doors that were blown out from the impact.

father, anthony wright sr. a third person was injured but is expected to survive. faa says the plane was a modified version of an american made world war ii era utility aircraft. authorities first received a call about a low-flying airplane and it crashed a short time later. >> we needed to cordon the area off a little bit wider than usual because there are different plane parts all around the area. that could give you some sort of an idea as to just how terrifying this crash was. >> the faa is trying to determine the cause of the crash. wright jr. is a 23 year veteran of the sheriff's office and had joined the rancho cordova police department in 2008. a group of homeowners in castro valley are being built by the city for the cleanup of a homeless encampment. tom baker has more on the dispute involving property lines and land that the homeowners did not apparently realize they actually own. >> reporter: this former homeless encampment is in the sand lorentzen creek ravine. it is well off of the beaten path and well below castro valley 75 home lakewood neighborhood. the homeowners association management firm has sent each homeowner a bill for $300, more than 20 grand in all, to pay for the cleanup. >> the homeowners association was informed, and they just did not take any action. i don't know, maybe they did not want to, or they were just being careless. >> and it's not like it is on our property and we can see somebody camping out here and we can do something, but it is kind of out somewhere. >> reporter: as it turns out, it was on their property, as determined by alameda county. the homeowners assumed the association and management firm knew the precise boundaries. >> you should know exactly where your property line is. he said he did not know, okay? i don't think that's a good excuse. >> reporter: once the management firm was notified by the county to clean up, it says it immediately got the county to evict the tenants last august. five months later, with several cleanup bids in hand, the association's board of director has yet to choose one. some homeowners are not paying and say the expenses should be shared with the management firm and the county. >> that is part of the responsibility for their negligence and stupidity, okay? instead of putting everything on us. >> reporter: out of the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of items in this abandoned camp, four things caught my attention. a teddy bear, a toy truck, and two automobile baby seats. more proof that this homeless thing we have is way out of hand. >> to me, it is more a societal problem. it is not just in castro valley or the bay area. it's throughout the country. we have lots of homeless people. >> reporter: while we were there, two sheriff's deputies had just finished another of what is now a regular inspection of the ravine. but there is no guarantee that the homeless will not return here or on someone else's private property where that owner becomes liable. tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. 7:40. let's get you outside where it is kind of mild out there. >> yes. mild, but not freezing. there have been mornings where it has been clear and just bitter cold. >> below freezing for some northbay valley locations at times. not the case going on this morning. we are relatively mild. we do have a lot of fog to start the day. mainly dry, at least for now. we will have showers appear eventually. the northbay will get it first. here's a look at some soupy fog out here this morning. got a crew on the water just outside of ktvu. you can't see san francisco from this vantage point this morning and the golden gate bridge was swallowed up as well. as far as temperatures, 83 degrees in santa rosa, 54 in san francisco, mid-50s to start the day, livermore where we are enjoying sunshine and are cooler. san jose at 54. as we know, the clouds help to insulate us just a bit. temperatures are up by 11 degrees in napa, up by 6 in concord, livermore starting off cooler than most of us. 7 in the south bay as well as half moon bay. the visibility is an issue, especially over northbay valley locations. highway 101, santa rosa reporting mild visibility. we've got fog in our northbay valley locations. half moon bay reporting visibility a little more than a mile. oakland, the airport, a quarter- mile reported there. as you get closer to the central and sacramento valley, you can see that dark shade of gray is covering that area which means i-5 could be treacherous if you have an early morning drive that takes you in that direction. here is a view of storm tracker 2. you can see radar is fairly quiet. we are looking at the possibility of scattered showers for the northbay into the afternoon and into the early evening hours. for the central and south bay, may squeeze out drizzle but we will be mostly cloudy and mainly dry. in the overnight hours on sunday, we are looking at that rain moving through. and by sunday morning, we already begin to dry out and for the afternoon, partly cloudy and dry conditions for your sunday afternoon. when i come back, better details on the timeline, as well as how much rainfall i expect to get. we will have snow in the sierra but levels are expected to remain high. details in the extended forecast coming up. chinese new year begins today. this morning, we give you a sneak peek into the into china gallery which is new in danville, all part of a personal collection years in the making. the super bowl maybe in miami but police in the bay area say they will be on standby to keep the peace during the game. why that isn't sitting well with some people when mornings on 2 comes back. well a new gallery opened today at the blackhawk museum in danville with an exhibit called into china, for the start of the chinese new year. i got a sneak peek at the gallery and why the exhibits are so personal. >> reporter: there is a story being told inside of this new exhibit in danville's blackhawk museum, and it's a bit of a love story. >> this represents his love for china, his dedication to the country. >> reporter: elizabeth is the curator of the into china art gallery, attributing the art and history of china that features an imperial dragon, terra-cotta warriors, and a scaled model of the forbidden city that is 19 feet long and took 15 years to build. each piece has a story, but so does the exhibit and
