Up. This is good news. We need the rainfall. It should be happening in december, and thats what were picking up. Santa rosa over an inch. Redwood city. 82, oakland. 69. Those amounts tapering off in san jose,. 06. But this is just the beginning of what will be a pretty active weather pattern into the weekend. The storm system moving across the region. This is not just one storm. Its a continuous flow of moisture in the pacific actually being directed toward Northern California and the bay area. So a lot of moisture to work with. We had the rain here. Look at all the snowfall reports up in the sir ray. We will sample one of these. We do have snowfall, it looks like its right about three inches. Theres my query tool. Tahoe city this morning, 6 34, reporting over three inches of snow. Back here in the bay area our live doppler sweeps showing you lots of clouds in place but not much in the way of scattered showers as you can see a few popup showers. Even if you dont have the green you still have a lot of moisture, enough to trigger that mist or some drizzle. Enough to wet the bay area roadways. So outside right now here is our live camera looking out towards the oakland estuary. Solid overcast. Still some mist. Here is our forecast model for tonight. Mostly cloudy skies, the possibility still of a few scattered showers and then into tomorrow morning for your friday morning still some scattered showers. Notice its not widespread but these are quickly moving across the bay area at 3 00. Possibly setting up a break later in the day friday he is special by friday night. Then look what happens into saturday. We have shifted the timing with our next storm system moving on board, and saturday i would plan on some wet weather especially first thing saturday morning. We will talk more about this weather system as we head into the weekend. We will also update the five day forecast abe few minutes. Thank you mark. Now to our continuing coverage of that deadly warehouse fire in oakland. Today artists lined up to speak at city hall. They say their work spaces are threatened as landlords fear liability in the wake of the guest ship fire. Cristina rendon live outside city hall. Its a tough situation for many people out there. Reporter yeah, and city council understands the concerns of artists and others in oakland that live in these warehouses or live work spaces. But i want to mention within the last hour the city council took action to ratify the existence of a local state of emergency. That allows oakland to start receiving state and federal funds to help recover from this tragedy. This was unanimous vote. It is something that the city council said they had to do, part of the bureaucratic tape to get through this measure. But they say that prior to this vote more than a dozen artists had lined up to speak. Some suggest that part of the funds be released to current art spaitsz. Every artist inside expressed concern that the city will have a knee jerk reaction to crack down on spaces that are unpermitted or not up to code. They want a moratorium on evictions because they say that many people are already getting eviction notices from their landlord. The Artist Community says it is not fair. They want to come up with a solution. We feel like stereotyping on the basis of a single incident is not fair to people who have been taking incredible safety precautions and whats own efforts have redoubled since this tragic incident. Reporter the city council says they do understand the concerns of those in the Artist Community. They say theyre going to be working with landlords so that oakland does not see mass evictions. They also say they want to work with landlords to make sure their properties do come up to code or in compliance without those landlords fearing any type of punishment. That, of course, will be a long road ahead, but for now we do know that a local state of emergency has been passed, though it is unclear how the funds will be divided. The city administrator says right now it depends on the source of the funding to determine where that money will go. Guys. Cristina rendon live in oakland, thank you. Today Authorities Say that they have identified all of the 36 people who died in that fire.

The students from st. Elizabeth Catholic School came to pay tribute to the 36 people who died.

There were two major earthquakes within a few hours of each other this morning. The first was felt across Northern California and by many people here in the bay area. It was a 6. 5 magnitude earthquake. It was about 280 miles from the bay area off the coast of Northern California, yet social media lit up, and we heard from people around the bay area. Bonnie here said she felt it in pebble beach. Ariana was in daly city. There were a lot of people in San Francisco that claimed they felt it. Heidi says she woke up in nob hill saying her bed was shaking, claiming it was her first earthquake. The second earthquake hit three hours later in the Solomon Islands, a massive earthquake. That one triggered a tsunami warning which affect the hawaiian islands. That warning was eventually canceled. Most people around the bay area believe that possibly these two earthquakes could be related. Hard to believe that they arent but that is why we ask the experts. Were going to go to one of those. People as far south as santa cruz reported feeling the earthquake, and for a closer look at that 6. 5 we want to go to the usgs in Mountain View and talk with brad. Thanks for joining us. Tell us about the two quakes. This mornings earthquake off the coast of eureka was a magnitude 6. 5 earthquake at 6 49. It was followed by a magnitude 4. 7 after shock at 8 32 this morning. Now, the earthquake off the coast of eureka did not cause strong shaking. It was felt relatively lightly along the coast. But as you mentioned as far south as the bay area and up into southern oregon. Okay, so because they happened so close to each other, a lot of people speculated that they might be related, but what do you say . Well, both of these earthquakes, the one off the coast of california and the one in the Solomon Islands occurred on very tectonically active areas. These are areas where we have the most earthquakes, so its not that uncommon to have two earthquakes that are felt in both regions on the same day. So because the magnitude 6. 5 happened first and it was so far away, any stress changes caused tin Solomon Islands are minuscule compared to, say, local other earthquakes happening in that region. Did these quakes, though, happen on the same fault line . No, these are both occurred along the pacific rim of fire. This mornings earthquake off the coast of eureka occurred on along the san andreas an extension of the san andreas plate boundary along the mendocino transform fault shown here in red. The Solomon Islands is on a different fault on a different part of one of the plate boundaries that makes up the pacific ring of fire. Okay, have we seen any significant aftershocks . For the one off the coast slur rei could, we have seen just this magnitude 4. 7 nearby. Right at the coast, we have this magnitude 4. 3 earlier in the week and weve had a couple of aftershocks, and its more likely in terms of related earthquakes, these two up here, the magnitude 4. 3 and the magnitude 6. 5 could be related but this is really the outside of the limb of its what would you expect earthquakes of that magnitude to be related in terms of one triggering another. You mentioned both of those areas have seen quakes before, a lot of activity. In fact, back in 1992 a lot of buildings there in the ferndale area were destroyed because of a pretty significant quake. Are you surprised that we didnt see any damage from todays 6. 5 . Well, todays 6. 5 was over 100 miles off the coast. And so by the time the seismic waves reached land, they had diminished in amplitude by quite a bit. Larger events that have occurred closer in towards the coast are the ones that have tended to cause damage along the coastline up near eureka and ferndale. Okay, im going ask you to look into your crystal ball for me if you can. A lot of people wondering after what they saw earlier today, do you expect any more . Well, we do expect additional aftershocks. Many of the aftershocks are probably too small for us to detect with our sensors on land, and for any earthquake in california, generally theres about a one in 20 chance of it generating a larger earthquake in the following week. Okay. Thanks so much for your expertise, brad. Always great to chat with you. Youre welcome. All right, football fans, raider fans in particular, it is a conference showdown tonight.
