She said she meant to say Bowling Green terrorists to refer to two iraqi men arrested in kentucky in 2011. Howard stern says President Trump just wants to be loved. The radio host talked about his longtime friend on his radio show and he believes the presidency is not good for mr. Trumps health. Stern also claims that mr. Trump is hoping he can prove voter fraud in order to put Hillary Clinton in office. The president so far has not responded. Number three, a campaign called grab your wallet has led to a boycott of retailers carrying donald trump merchandise, nor tdstrom is dropping ivanka trumps fashion line not because of the boycott but because of dropping sales. There is a new report that says apple is no longer the most valuable brand in the world. The top spot belongs now to google. The brand is worth 109 billion, making it the most lucrative in the world. That is the first time that google has topped the list since 2011. The annual ranking comes from brand finance. It says apples monetary value has plummeted 27 . I mean, dont cry too much. Theyre still at 107 billion. But it does allow google to say its number one. A rare treat is rolling out in the bay area today. But you have to wait a while to get a taste. Today in santa rosa, pliny the younger is going to make its 14th annual debut at the Russian River Brewing Company and look, there will be lots of company. Whenever we shot this, there was lots of rain. Today wont be any different. Each february, beer lovers line up for a taste of this triple ipa. Its only available on draft at that brew pub for two weeks. Pliny the younger is like a ghost, man. Everyone knows about it. Its mythical. I never tried the beer but i heard its really good. Ive never seen it. If i had, i would have drank it. Theres only a daily allocation and once thats served, theyre done for the day. Each visitor is allowed three glasses of pliny the younger and they only get three hours to drink them. Although, lets three is enough, isnt it . Right . I dont know. You know, mike, its only 6 48 in the morning, i have a feeling you are ready to go. I am. And you know, we had a rodent yesterday tell us, why didnt pliny the younger just tell us every year they roll that out so i can forecast rain. Id much rather have the beer than the rodent. Thats what it boils down to. Good morning, everybody. About 1 3 inch of rain on the san mateo bridge. Everythings moving so slowly there. Its not quite as bad as some of the other lesser traveled bridges as far as standing water but it is definitely wet. Winds have tapered just a little bit, gusting to 29 at sfo, 24 at half moon bay, gusts up to 25 Miles Per Hour earlier. East west bridges, you got to watch out. Its wet and the wind is hitting you cross waiz. Weve transitioned in the moderate rain to light rain, same thing in the east bay and up in the north bay, weve got some scattered showers and its close to mt. St. Helena, maybe a little San Francisco, sixhour total about 1 3 of an inch. Showers today, heaviest, weve had them this morning. Longer periods of dry weather tomorrow and sunday and then unsettled, rain in the forecast all seven days. Todays storm impact scale is 1. Were getting out of the brief morning downpours and breezy conditions and transferring to scattered showers already. From 7 00 to noon, and then from noon to 5 00, still a lot of green on the map. If youre heading out this evening, take an umbrella. You may need it. Isolated shower here and there. 8 00 tomorrow morning, pretty wet and then just some isolated showers through saturday evening and look how dry it gets sunday morning, but then we get to 8 00, just as the super bowl ends, and youre about to head on out, another wave of some heavy downpours starts to roll in. That will linger through mondays morning commute as if it wont be bad enough after the super bowl to try to get out of bed. Tuesday, wednesday, and thursday, theyre all 1s, though, light on our storm impact scale. Alexis .
