sal is off. alex is in. speaking of a few extra days clearly. >> 15 wasn't enough. that's for you sal, if you're watching. i was at the gym and i couldn't get on a machine. it was packed. >> i'll confess, i haven't gotten there yet to the gym. >> but we will. >> i have to get to that resolution. >> the problem that i have found, during the holidays you're busy and it throws off your routine. >> the routine for the past month. it starts next week. >> also new session of congress. >> right. >> it started today. it will be a very interesting year. >> yep. >> in politics. we saw it this morning where the house republicans had a vote behind closed doors. then we saw president-elect donald trump questioning the move. my question is, what do you think the relationship is going to be like between trump and the house republicans? >> that dynamic is going to be one to keep an eye on, i think. >> yep. >> certainly throughout his presidency. obviously we know that a lot of republicans didn't have his back during the campaign. it's going to be interesting to see how much they accomplish. >> also kamala harris being sworn in today. the 45th senator of california. we will talk more politics in a bit. let's get you updated on the forecast right now and go over to steve paulson. >> thank you, guys. it looks like a break in the rain for right now. still on its way. plenty coming in tonight and tomorrow and also the wind will crank up here. but overall, about a quarter of an inch to over an inch for some on the rainfall. especially marin county and up in the santa cruz mountains. snow level is inching up a little bit. it was down to 1800 yesterday. i expect it to go 2500 to 3,000 later on. there's going to be a lot of rain in the next 24 to 48 hours and more so for the weekend. we will get a break on thursday and friday. look what happens on saturday. and then especially into sunday. there will be some heavy duty rain totals. in fact, there may be a lot of rain over the next 10 to 15 days or so. some of this is still snow. but not as much as yesterday when it was low snow levels for many up in mendocino county and lake county and the bay area hills. we are seeing a little break. the rain is starting to fill back in now. plenty to the event with. it will get enhanced over the next few images. santa cruz mountains, you can get good rain out of there. these temperatures are 10 degrees warmer for some than yesterday. low off of oregon funneling in. look at the moisture off to the west of us. the whiter the tops, the colder the top. that is the source of the wind. i think heavy rain tonight and tomorrow morning. you can see where the moisture is coming up from the west/southwest. there's a lot going on across the pacific that will play into awe wet pattern and a tremendous amount of snow. even though the snow level will go up. 15-day outlooks of 200 inches of snow up towards the sierra snow lab. a lot of rain. maybe too much rain. we will ease into this. i mean, it's looking very wet here for the next week or two. >> thank you, steve. >> snow as steve just reported bringing snow to the sierra and parts of the bay area. janine de la vega is live on mount hamilton where road conditions are tricky. aren't they? >> reporter: yes. there is a road closure on mount hamilton road. they don't want anyone coming up here. and so at least the public. that's because it is icy. there is snow. not too much of it. a lot of it is melting. i was able to make one snowball here. behind me you can see it is dusting of snow here. but it's really melted off all of the trees. the roofs of the houses here still have snow. there's some on the cars. last time though we checked in with you, in the last 30 minutes, we ran into a couple of snowboarders who brought their snowboards up here, thinking they can do that. let's go to that video. they're not supposed to be doing this. but, you know, it was pretty comical watching them try to do something like this. they are from morgan hill. they were just in tahoe. and they missed the snow and wanted to attempt this. the workers up here at lake observatory discouraged them and told them they couldn't be here and they ended up leaving. the snow started falling on mount hamilton on sunday and continued on to monday. a heavy dusting of snow. it all stopped this morning. there was rain o'er night. that has stopped. a lot of the snow right now is turning to slush. we did he can speak to the snowboarder on camera a little while ago. here is what he had to say. >> it is amazing. it is cool. i never chased the snow up here. i've heard of snow coming around with united states in a while. it is cool to see. i woke up at 6:00 in the morning to be out here. i'm glad i made it. >> reporter: now, here is a photo that one of our viewers sent us showing what it looked like in the parking lot yesterday off of summit road at castle rock park in los gatos. they got snow there. check out the snow coming down in middleton yesterday in lake county. you can see farm animals, pigs walking around in the snow. we had a viewer from kell industryville send in footage from-- kelseyville send in footage from yesterday. we have seen caltrans equipment here. they have been up and down the road. there is a plow right here. they're maintaining the roads up here. but they want to make sure that the public stays away from here. we are wearing a lot of layers here, my photographer and i because it's windy. at least the rain has stopped. >> janine de la vega bundled up atop snowy mount hal i will ton this morning. let's shift to politics now. president-elect donald trump announced his candidate for trade representative. arobert lightheiser is the nominee. in a statement trump says that he will, quote, fight for good trade deals that put the american worker first. >> as congress goes back to work, republicans are eager to start dismantles president obama's policies. democrats talk about making life difficult for donald trump. >> both parties are bracing for what could be a very difficult year. >> reporter: you can judge how consequential this congress may become based on the high profile visitors this week alone. president obama will be here on capitol hill tomorrow to meet with democrats to try to salvage obamacare. vice president-elect mike pence will also be here to meet with republicans. the gleaming dome of congress has been redone. after a massive construction and restoration project. but inside, it's all about deconstructing president obama's agenda. for newly elected refers, it is a -- republicans, it is game time. >> the number one target is obamacare. that's the reason that president obama will head to the hill tomorrow, to try to figure out a way to save the health care law. for republicans the challenge may be unifying around a plan that saves the more popular aspects of the program but getting rid of the individual mandate to obtain or buy insurance. >> republicans have had a lot of plans for a number of years now. but this time they have to pick one. and as a party unite behind it and pass it, that will take hard work. >> reporter: and democrats are going to mount aggressive plays as well. planning on making it as difficult as possible for president-elect trump to win confirmations for his cabinet picks. specifically targeting eight of them for long drag out battles that could continue for weeks beyond the inauguration. already raising the ire of trump's team. >> there's a difference between opposing people on policy and allowing people to have the constitutional -- the president to have the right to choose his cabinet as long as they're qualified. each one of these people is unbelievably qualified to serve and bring change to the various departments in the government. >> reporter: the other real fault line on capitol hill includes the ethics. republicans have voted to dismantle it. democrats are howling. in washington, doug luzader, fox news. >> this morning, president- elect donald trump criticized house republicans for focusing on the ethics issue as the first order of business. he tweeted this, with all that congress has to work on, do they really have to make weakening of the independent ethics watch dog as unfair as it is. maybe their number one act and priority. focus on tax reform, health care, and so many other things of far greater importance. the time is 9:10. happening in his role as the president of the senate, vice president joe den is swearing in new u.s. senators. this group includes kamala harris. i believe she may be there shaking hands as we speak. >> your right hand. >> we listen here at vice president joe biden. kamala harris elected in november to take over the seat of barbara boxer. she will be the first new senator in 24 years. she is joining dianne feinstein in representing our state. with the republicans controlling congress and the white house, they should be able to get work done. but democrats are vowing o put up a fight. throughout mornings on 2 we have been asking what you would you like to see out of congress in the new year? is there something that you want to see changed or hoping that they can come together and get things done? one twitter user says making our government more transparent. make our government work for the people instead of getting paid by the people. >> on facebook, karen says i would like congress to be honest and work for the betterment of the country instead of themselves and lobbyists. >> russ tweeted this, more time in home districts. local news, interviews and town halls. >> we will keep taking your responses throughout the day and share them with you at 9:30. we appreciate the use of tvuthe9. an environmental group is traveling to washington, d.c. to take part in protests on inauguration day. it is a 16-city national protest tour ahead of the inauguration. they're calling the tour arthtotrump. they are asking people to put their messages for the incoming president into a giant globe. the group is concerned about trump's environmental policies. ental policies. >> in his first 100 days, he has promised to withdraw from the terrorist climate agreement. he has promised to fast tracked fossil fuel projects like keystone xl. >> and one of the biggest protests in washington, d.c. could be the women's march which is scheduled for january 21st, that is the day after the inauguration. as many as 200,000 people are expected to take part. all right. still to come on mornings on 2 the 9, a photojournalist in

room where dave clark is keeping an eye on big stories of the day. >> here are some of the top stories this morning. jury selection continues today in the murder trial of antolin garcia-torres. this comes five years after morgan hill teenager sierra lamar disappeared. her body has never been found. prosecutors say the dna of garcia-torres was found on her clothing in her bag that was found in a field. and that the dna of sierra was found in garcia-torres' car. his lawyer says he is not guilty of murder and says sierra lamar ran away from home. the opening statements are scheduled on january 18th. well, normally every morning there are four southbound lanes on the golden gate bridge and two northbound lanes. but this morning, there were only three lanes in each direction. that's because of damage on part of a movable median on the golden gate bridge. the zipper was broken. bridge officials were waiting until today to fix it. the repairs should be finished by the evening commute. grief counselors are at evergreen valley high school in san jose for the first day of school since a 14-year-old freshman was killed christmas morning in a suspected drunk driving crash. andrew nguyen was in a car with his family on capitol expressway when another car smashed head on into them after crossing into their lane. the other driver who police say was under the influence also died in the crash. those are just some of your morning headlines from our news room. mike, alex, gasia, i'll send it back to you. >> thank you, dave. police in new york this morning, they are looking for three thieves who got away with $6 million in jewelry on new year's eve. we want to show you surveillance video of the two men. they raided a jewelry wholesaler. the suspects climbed the fire stairs to get inside. they waited in a stairwell and struck right at midnight, possibly using the noise from the new year's eve celebration as cover. police believe this heist was an inside job because the safe was left open. the priceyest item was worth more than $200,000. >> you don't just leave a safe like that open. >> no. not by accident. this is a video that we want everyone to see. we have young children. we should know the dangers. a 2-year-old boy rescued his twin brother during a frightening incident that was caught on camera. some people might find it disturbing. i think it carries an important message. that having been said, we will show it you to. the dressers toppled right over on to both of the little boys. this is happening in their bedroom in utah. one little boy is trapped underneath. thank goodness his twin brother remains calm and uses his strength to push that dresser off of him. watch, his twin brother gets up and is okay. now, the boys' parents were not in their room when this happened. they actually saw it on their surveillance video. and that's how they realized what had happened, how the dresser came down. they chose to share the video on social media because it highlights the important of taking the extra step of anchoring your furnish to the wall which a lost us do because we're in earthquake country. >> tvs and the furniture. >> maybe they heard it -- >> i hear a pin drop in my house. i have parent ears. >> my wife, absolutely. she is there in a minute. >> right. >> when she hears anything. you would think they would have heard. >> it is amazing to see him lifting that up. >> that's right. >> he can hold that over his head forever. >> i saved your life. an important note. the parents said they had done everything else. the latches on the drawers and the cabinets and all of that stuff. >> the one thing they didn't do. so do it. >> this is talking about rescues here. a photojournalist came to the rescue of a driver trapped in his vehicle in a fiery freeway crash in southern california and he captured it all on camera. [censor] >> this was the scene early sunday morning on the 110 in l.a. photojournalist ashton watched it happen. he spends his night covering crashes and crimes. he rushed to the help of the driver once the car burst into flames. rescuing the man proved to be no easy task. >> he literally had less than five seconds to live. and i managed to just -- just managed to get him out. >> that driver was taken to the hospital in critical condition. but he is now expected to be released in a few days. >> that is incredible. coming up on mornings on 2 the 9, myth busters getting revamped and on the

quite a line-up there. the three-day festival is may 26th to the 28th in napa valley. tickets go on sale tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m. the lineup is incredible. the big names. >> i would go for tom petty alone. >> tom petty is great. i remember being there for the first time and seeing the crowds grow year after year. there was debate whether this would be a big deal after the first time they had that. and here we are. >> it took off. it certainly did. >> let's talk here about a show that we all know very well. mythbusters a hit show filmed in the san francisco bay area. the mission was to figure out if some of the biggest science rumors were real or fake. >> this saturday, the science channel is launching myth busters the search. they are finding more curious minds looking to uncover the truth. >> the myth is can you build a nonrocket power ejector street that doesn't shoot them up but out to the side. >> joining us this morning is the host of the new show, kyle hill. kyle, good morning to you. >> good morning. thanks so much for having me. >> no problem. i know you're a science buff. how fired up were you when you got word that you would host mythbusters the search. >> honestly a dream come true. mythbusters has been with me for over 50% of my life in terms of years. it actually did help sculpt my career path. when i was in high school determining what i wanted to do, going into college, mythbusters pushed me into engineering. from there, i realized that i too wanted to try to take complex scientific topics and explain them for people to get people interested in science in a full and digestible way. that's what i do for my day job. when i got the call from mythbusters saying do you want to be part of this new show, it was a perfect fit. >> with the ten contestants, what sort of science background did they need to come or do they come from or are these just excited people happening to be on a science competition show. >> to be honest, they are green on cam what when they come in. what we are looking for is contestants that can come alive and be passionate over the course of the shows. they have science backgrounds. that is encouraged if you are doing experiments and building stuff. we have ph.d.s and engineers and other scientists. we have youtube stars who make things for the internet. we have these people with different backgrounds and genders and ethnicities. what we are really looking for is for those people to come into their own as mythbusters over the course of the show. that's why we're doing it in a competition format that is not gossipy or caddy or anything like that. nothing like voting off the island in negativity. we want to show fans of the old show that these people are passionate and mythbusters fans themselves. we want you at home to get to know them. by the end of the show, i think it might happen. >> kyle, why do you think it is important to have shows like mythbusters that makes science fun and make it so accessible to such a wide audience? why is that important? >> sure. for whatever reason every generation has a few shows that really make an impact. a few decades ago, something like that was if you're talking about science fiction, star trek. these are institutions that i think the data would prove pushed more young people into science technology, engineering art, and management paths than otherwise would. i think mythbusters did that in spades. and now that the original host hung up their mythbusting happens and pursuited other things, i think this legacy of being a great science show on television is something worth continuing. which is why we're doing it like this. and that's why i'm a part of it. because i think it is worth while to do, especially in this day and age where everything is information. it's about knowledge. it's about what you know and how you can apply it to be not only a good citizen, but just good human beings on this planet. knowing science, having a background in curiosity, being someone who is passion alternate about learning. that's what is most important. >> we know the old show had a lot of filming done right here in the bay area. does the new one the bay area play a role? >> i can't confirm that -- i can confirm that we filmed all throughout the bay area. it was lovely. i had never been there before. speaking of which, for fans of the old show, we go to a lot of classic mythbusters locations that you will recognize in the bay area. alameda runway, the gun range, bomb range. you will see familiar locations there. >> we will watch mythbusters the search this saturday. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> speaking of doing an experiment, the 49ers need to find a new head coach and general manager. a look at

of your responses. reach us on twitter with #ktvu. let's go over to tara moriarty who is joining us live from the hall of justice. hey, tara. >> reporter: good morning. happy new year to you guys. we are going to start off the new year by talking about two things important to san francisco, water and transportation. the board that oversees muni will be meeting today. one of the items on the agenda is examining a report about safety records and on time performance for the 2016 fiscal year. crime dropped to the lowest since 2013. on time performance increased by 3% to nearly 60%. it is far short of the voter approved standard of at least 85%. the number of collisions ticked up slightly. but muni says rider satisfaction has been increasing. it now stands at 70%, up from 45% in 2001. switching gears now to your drinking water. the tunnel that delivers water from the reservoir to the bay area will be shut down for a two-month inspection. san francisco and other cities will receive their water from local reservoirs while crews determine whether the aging tunnel can be repaired or needs to be replaced. water officials say it is at risk of a catastrophic collapse. 2.6million customers depend on water from the reservoir. that is it. we will head back to you in the studio. >> thank you, tara. all right. it has been one month sense the devastating oakland warehouse fire that killed 36 people. and already several lawsuits have been filed against the building's owner and employees of various county and city departments. oakland councilman says that inspections may have fell through the cracks but the city will address similar properties in hopes of preventing this from happening again. >> it is not just one facility that we may have not dropped the ball. there are a number of facilities or residential units housing our resident that's are in question right now. >> he says that city inspectors have been making efforts. >> the 49ers will start interviewing candidates for head coach and gm today. the ceo york defended himself and says why he is the right person to make the critical hires. >> we're going to be judged on what we do. and what we accomplish. we haven't accomplished enough. i own this football team. you don't dismiss owners. i'm sorry that that's the facts and that's the case. but that's the fact. and i'm going to do everything that i can to get this right. >> he came under fire a number of times in the news conference. the team must be flexible but he refused to say which position he will fill first, coach or gm. he indicated that he is talking with former super bowl players and coaches about the search and hiring process. >> let's take a look at the people that the 49ers are interested in talking to. patriots offensive coordinators mcdaniels who has the support of tom brady. the two other candidates have 49ers time. interim coach for the bills i running back for the 49ers back in the '90s. and falcons offensive coordinate kyle shanahan. his dad mike shanahan the 49ers offensive coordinator who won super bowl 29. here is a partial list for general manager. they include patriots director player personnel nick. another reported candidate is espn analyst who was drafted as a db back in 1991 for the 49ers. elliot wolf. his dad won super bowls with the raiders and the packers. >> a lot of good candidates there. here we are the third straight january talking about the firing of a head coach for the 49ers. it is becoming routine over here. we're talking about the firing of the general manager this year as well. >> all of this just scratches the surface when it comes to the status of coaches under the team's current ownership. >> the 49ers are bordering on the most dysfunctional time in the organization. they had six coaches in five seasons back in the '70s. joe fonzi takes a look back. >> reporter: the first coach fired by the york family was coming off of quo two consecutive playoff seasons. they lost to essential super bowl tampa in the playoffs. he paid the price, learning about his dismissal from his wife who was listening to the radio. they were both fired after the 49ers went 2-14 in 2004. >> i'm enormously pleased to introduce to you the new head coach of the san francisco 49ers, mike nolan. >> reporter: by current standards the mike nolan era was the symbol of continuity. he lasted until the middle of 2008, replaced by mike singletary. they won five of the last 7. jed york made his first hire in the locker room. >> i would like to introduce the new head coach. >> reporter: singletary almost made it to the end of 2010. a season of embarrassing incidents was capped by what happened on the side lines in st. louis. jim finished that year coaching the team's final game. tom would be heard from again but not before the jim harbaugh area. three playoff teams and a trip to the super bowl represent by far the most successful run while the yorks have owned the team. we know how thing went for harbaugh in year four. since then, we've had one year of tom, now one of chip kelly, and another vacancy. the 2017 season will mean four new head coaches in as many years, which represents a lack of a very important pro sports commodity. >> continuity is a big deal. and, you know, it's easier to win ball games when you know you're in the same system for a while and you know what the expectations are. >> there was a time in the last two weeks that i looked around the locker room and the guy turnover was crazy. we could have really lost this football team. he did a great job of keeping people focused throughout the crappy season. >> reporter: joe fonzi, ktvu fox 2 news. >> if you want to see the entire news conference, we have it on ktvu.com on the home page. rep prosecute races owe owe preparations are underway for the electronics show in las vegas. we got a sneak peek of how it is coming together. >> reporter: industry experts showing off the latest and greatest pieces of technology. for the last few weeks, it sounded more like this. >> they have been setting up since december 23rd. >> reporter: 3,000 men and women working through the holidays for one of the largest innovation events in the world. >> we're building a city. this is the record footprint 2.6 million net square feet of exhibit space. >> reporter: to put that in perspective, that is the equivalent of 45 football fields. three football fields more than last year. >> this magnitude setup is one of a kind. it really is. we have 3800 exit exhibit -- exhibiting companies. >> reporter: all to see what 50 years of innovation and technology will bring. >> 50 years ago, you know, it was little television and radios. today we have smart home and self-driving cars and wearables connecting our entire lives. it is incredible to see the transformation. we love being in las vegas. >> reporter: the event is broken down into three campuses. >> as we want to expand, we're thrilled that the city is expanding with us and letting us have the growth that we need. a lot of blood, sweat and tears. but the excitement and energy makes it worth while. house republicans have just reversed themselves under pressure from president-elect donald trump. they have dropped their plans to gut an independent congressional ethics board. you is see live pictures from the house of representatives. this is happening as new members are being sworn in today. house republicans had planned on virtually eliminating the office of congressional ethics. after criticism in the form of a tweet from donald trump it appears that they have reversed themselves. we will follow this story throughout the morning. an interesting start to 2017. >> yeah. >> not this year. coming up on mornings on 2 the 9, he calls himself the biggest colts fan. the technology that allowed the man to watch his first game. coming up next here, we will talk live with emily the star of bones as fans bid her and the other

plunge before it gets a makeover. the register reports that many fans of the ride came in to see the attraction yesterday on its last day of service. the ride opened back in 2004. going in its place, a guardians of galaxy theme ride that will open this summer. a new episode of the knick airs tonight. >> pull up a chair. >> you have to cut the food first. >> the mick stars caitlyn olson who has to take care of her sister's three young children once she flees the country. i hope you were with us last week when we talked with her live on the 9. she is lengths the executive producer of the comedy. she is continuing to costar on the long running show it's always sunny in philadelphia. the pilot episode aired sunday right after football. tonight's episode we will watch it starting at 8:30. >> she

two children of her own, younger than the children she is playing substitute mom to on the show. i said -- she is saying the things that parents sometimes think but can never say. she said i never talk to my own kids like that. >> following the episode is the final chapter of the hit show bones. >> tonight's episode picks up where last season left off. >> for more on the final season, we are joined this morning by emily herself. good morning to you. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> of course. >> i was cruising your twitter feed this morning in a very professional way. [laughter] >> and i -- >> go on. >> i saw a tweet though that said that you directed tonight's episode. is this something that you want to think about in the future here? >> yes. i actually do. i really loved doing it. i have a lot to learn. but i picked up a few things doing the show for 12 years, watching other people direct. and, yeah, i really enjoyed doing t it is something that i asked to do years ago and then they got postponed and then i got pregnant. then i had a baby. then i got pregnant again. so i kind of put it on the side -- the back burner. and, you know, this is our final season. so i thought, you know, this is my last chance. i asked and it was scary to me. and i actually really loved directing. >> i loved a lot from david, my costar. yeah. it was really great. >> for bones to be able to go out on your terms must be sad but a little sweet because there were people, emily, who did not expect bones to make it 12 seasons. >> oh, i mean some people. i think everyone didn't expect it to make it. i remember, you know, never thinking it could make it past three years. just because i didn't know you could have so many story lines about bones. i mean, it seemed crazy to me. but here we are. now we have done 12 seasons. it has been an amazing ride. the network has given us an amazing gift of 12 episodes for our 12th final season to wrap up all of the story lines. many times shows will be canceled without a chance to finish any story lines. they're canceled and you can't do anything. it is a tragedy, especially for the fans. we have done, you know, our best to try and give the fans a satisfying ending to the series and to all of the story lines and the characters that they love. >> yeah. obviously the show is not judge university about the bones. it is about the people. talk to me about sort of the evolution of the relationship between brennan and booth. how do you describe sort of the arc of that relationship over the past 12 seasons? >> wow. we had, you know, from the beginning there was kind of the sexual tension. and like butting heads about things because they're very different characters. acters. and then, you know, now the characters are married with kids. and we still butt heads about things. but our characters have changed as a result of knowing each other and loving each other. he has helped my character break down all of these walls that i built up. and i certainly taught him a thing or two about science and, you know, weighing your thoughts with your gut. because, you know, he was kind of instinctive and just go with things without thinking about it as much. so i think we have changed each other. these characters have changed so much. our relationship has changed so much. you know, our lives off cameras have changed so much as well. >> that's true. >> it has -- that is one of the joys of doing a television series, especially a long- running television series, is to grow with the character and to change so much. with a film, you only have so much time to change with that character. and you can only explore so many things. with a series, you can do 230- whatever episodes we have done and explore so many situations and relationships and dynamics and characters changing. it's been a real treat. >> it has been very addictive. you sit down and don't think you're going to watch the whole thing. it has been a great run. congratulations on your success. good luck with the directing down the road. >> thank you. i appreciate it. >> that airs at 9:00 right here on ktvu. they are aimed at busy commuters needing a hearty breakfast on the go. >> i'm in. >> ktvu's christien kafton live now at the gastro pig on franklin street where the grand opening is being held. pork on the menu there?
