Thank you so much for starting your sunday morning with us. Im kira klapper. Cinthia pimentel joins with us a quick look at our microclimate forecast. Yesterday, well, yesterday was kind of strange, right . A lightning delay in san jose, our coworkers saw some rain, but it was lovely where i was. [ laughter ] yeah, it was mainly focused down to the south bay as we forecasted. And more of that activity through the Central Coast this morning and today, a bit of a different story, although we are starting out with dense fog blanketing the bay bridge. Be careful with changes in visibility as you head out the door. San jose waking up to a bit chillier conditions and some cloud cover in the south bay. That visibility is a concern right now, mainly forming in the north bay. Navoto, santa rosa, less than half a mile of visibility. So be careful with changing conditions. Less of the cloud cover as we go into the middle of the day. Along the water, low to upper 80s for the inland valleys. Well hang onto summer just a little bit longer. Cinthia, thanks. This morning, we are learning more about that destructive earthquake thats left parts of morocco in ruins. As we reported yesterday morning, that deadly 6. 8 magnitude quake hit the north african country late friday night, and the death toll has grown from yesterdays estimate. Today, more than 2,000 people are reported dead. Just as many are injured. Of those 2,000 injured, more than half are in critical condition. Surveillance cameras outside a restaurant captured the moment the quake hit. Wow it has become the deadliest earthquake that morocco has suffered in more than 100 years. Survivors are beginning to speak out, pleading for help. This is one of the poorest areas in the city, and those people need help like food, water, blankets, however you can help. Search and rescue teams are working to find any survivors. Morocco has declared three days of national mourning. The National Flag will be flown at half staff throughout the country. And the effects of that massive quake are being felt here in the bay area. Some moroccans we spoke with locally were fortunately able to reach their loved ones, and ensure their safety. Alyssa gourd reports on what they say you can do to help. Reporter during saturdays Brunch Service at San Francisco restaurant here, the owner says his phone was inundated with people wondering if his family in morocco was impacted by the recent earthquake. After many attempts, i was able to reach them and apparently some of the mobile Service Towers were down because of the earthquake. Reporter he grew up in morocco and is grateful his family and friends are okay, but were only just starting to grasp the devastation caused by the quake. A lot of people are still in a lot of trouble. A lot of people are unaccounted for. And i can promise you that from what i from what i gathered from talking to people in morocco on the ground, Everybody Knows somebody who is missing. Reporter staff at several other moroccan restaurants in San Francisco tell us they have been on the phone with relatives all day, hearing about the devastation. Theyre also concerned that the numbers of people dead or missing will continue to rise. Prayers are nice. But at this point, people need a lot more than prayers. Reporter he says it could be helpful for those who are able to go to morocco to assist in the search and rescue efforts. But even if thats not possible, he says monetary support will be important, too. Hes talking with chefs from across the country about how to do just that. Were going to do a lot of events in the next, you know, coming weeks to help raise money for morocco. Reporter alyssa gourd, today in the bay. Were continuing to follow this story closely as the search and rescue efforts continue. Were posting updates on our website. You can go to nbcbayarea. Com and click on morocco earthquake at the top of our home page. Back here locally, were getting more information about a brawl inside the San Francisco Center Shopping mall, formally known as westfield. This happened just before 6 00 p. M. Yesterday. A Security Guard told our nbc bay area crew that more than a dozen teenagers started attacking someone. Nothing was stolen, but when the fight broke out, there were concerns that the teens had knives. Police say when officers responded, they found only one teen who had hit his head on something. They turned that boy over to a parent. No word on whether arrests were made. Crime and Public Safety continue to be hot button issues for People Living in oakland. At yesterdays Public Safety meeting at oaklands genesis worship center, the line of people trying to get in was out the door and down the block. Only about 70 people were able to get into the actual town hall. There was a live stream for everyone else. Oaklanders told us they want to hear specific steps leaders are taking to curb crime and improve safety. We want to hear about the safety plan, what is the safety plan . There are shootings every night. Its never, ever, ever been this bad. Neighbors and Business Owners shared their frustrations and concerns about everything, from thefts and breakins, to shootings. As you can see here, speakers included the District Attorney and the mayor of oakland. I know i cannot ignore one community or one person in the system in favor of another in the system, in favor of another person. We have to get back to the community in oakland. [ inaudible ] so we have to not only work for solving the crimes and getting justice, but we also have to do the work to prevent the harm of this happening. Officers from opd and the Alameda County Sheriffs Office also there. The group held a sort of counterrally, featuring a former city council member. We are hearing more from the family of a man shot to death on friday in oakland. Police tell us it happened just before 10 00 at 8th and filburt street. Paramedics rushed the man to the hospital where he later died. We spoke with his father. He says his son was trying to turn his life around. He was working. He was working for San Francisco and then he got another job. He was just saying, i like that and it was going to stick with that. You know, this just theres so resources for these kids. No word yet on any shooter description or any arrest. Now to the south bay where this water main break sent thousands of gallons of water flowing down stevening creek boulevard yesterday afternoon. The mess forced several nearby businesses to shut down for the day. It all started just after 11 00 yesterday morning, the force of the water so strong it actually uprooted some asphalt and sections of the road. Because the water had to be shut off to make repairs, a slice of pizza was forced to close. Thousands of dollars. College football starts today. I dont know if well even be open tomorrow. The manager there tells us there was so much water outside his store, it looked like a swamp. The city of santa clara is working to repair the break. Crews say it could be long before the water is turned back on. All right. We told you about this yesterday. Prepare for traffic trouble in Mountain View if you are headed out this morning.

As we told you yesterday, the need for Blood Donations is great, and you helped make up for some of the shortfall of donations this summer. California Health Leaders say every two seconds, someone in the u. S. Needs donated blood. So here at nbc bay area, were doing our part annually, as we told you yesterday, we partnered with the Stanford Blood Bank to host the 7th annual bay area proud blood drive.

Much more ahead on today in the day. Coming up, we go live to washington, d. C. For an inside look at chuck todds last episodes the moderat aor at cretors, we handcraft every batch of our delicious popcorn. Like our cretors cheese and caramel mix. Great on their own, even better together. Try cretors, handcrafted smallbatch popcorn. Welcome back. This morning, nbc news is marking the end of an era, after nine years, nbc news political director and moderator of meet the press chuck todd is hosting his final episode as moderator of meet the press. Scott mcgrew spoke with chuck this morning. Sunday marks the last meet the press with chuck todd at the helm. Chuck joins me from washington. Chuck, meet the press is nbcs longest running program. Fidel castro has been on meet the press. You hosted for almost ten years. What sticks out for you . Well, look, i often joke when youre introduced as the moderator of the longest running Television Show in history, the goal is not to be the last moderator, so i achieved that goal. You want to pass the baton. So i want to get that out of the way. It is now kristen welkers burden to make sure shes not the last moderator of the longest running show in the history of television on the planet. The nine years that i was the kus tocustodian of this chair, f them are the most tumultuous years ive covered in politics. Not since the 50s have we been this polarized and uncertain in our direction and maybe not since the 1850s. So it is one of those and i think its one of the reasons why i was ready to take a breath and take a pause. Theres only so many rides on this roller coaster anybody can handle, and anybody should do on that front. But i would way for me what is certainly stood out, its sort of trying to trying to hold onto this idea that there are some of us that are dispassionate in the press, dispassionate about left versus right. Its more about covering politics as it is. The biggest change is how many people dont want to do that anymore. You talked with Governor Newsom for a one on one. What did you take away from that . Look, hes a very i moderated his first debate when he ran for governor. Ive been covering for 25 years, ive known for him for a quarter of a century. What stood out, there is a comfort and thick skin that he has, that he that he has acquired over the years. Hes very confident and comfortable in his station, and hes also been humbled. Look, we got into everything. Its a very wide ranging interview. Any question you want asked, i promise i got to it. But if you are asking me the sort of the bigger takeaway i had, this is a very confident individual, and i think he thinks he feels very fearless right now. Im pretty convinced, the next office he runs for is president. Its just probably not going to be this calendar year. One more question, nancy pelosi Just Announced shes running for reelection. Any thoughts on that . It surprised me. You know, its not its a bit unusual for a former speaker to stay longer than another term or finishing a term. Its mildly surprising. Weve seen it a couple of times in the senate where majority leader has gone on to another term. When youre driving, it is hard to let go of the wheel and let somebody else drive. My youngest son is just starting to drive. So im surprised she still wants to i know shes going to want to take the wheel, right . When you have been a leader as long as her. So i think its very hard to give up something. Its sometimes hard to let go and its clear she believes she still has the energy. She still has the ability to do it. So shes not going to let go. You know, i understand that some people are like, hey, you know, a generation is supposed to leave the stage at some point, right . Thats to make room for the next generation of leaders. I imagine this will be received with a mixed bag. Chuck, i wish you the best of luck, both with letting go of the Steering Wheel and being a bad, tinto avoid the mailboxes. Chuck, thanks again. Join chuck todd coming up at 8 00. And every sunday morning after that with the new host, kristen welker, right here on nbc bay area. Kira . Thank you, scott. By the way, chuck will remain at nbc news as chief political analyst. He also will be focusing on longform journalism. Coming up in 30 minutes, well talk to nbc bay area political analyst Larry Gerston for our weekly segment. Well take a work at the house of representatives has before them to avoid a Government Shutdown. And now we have some events to tell you about in this mornings weekend calendar. Good morning, kira. You may know the crucible in west oakland is a place to make with 18 departments, welding, black smithing, glass working and ceramics. But today instead of making or teaching, theyll be fixing. Its their quarterly fixathon. Theyll do tuneups for the first 30 folks who bring their bikes in. And then to a crucible in the south bay. You get your goblet at the Mountain View art and wine festival. This is the 51st annual event. If the experience lives up to the expectation, this years festival will be a festival like no other festival like in other. Or you can head up to San Francisco. This weekend marks the mid point of flower piano 2023 in San Franciscos botanical guarden, where 12 pianos are hidden throughout the park right here.
