infrastructure is strong. the funding for these projects comes from the infrastructure law passed in 2021. democratic senator mark warner says it's an investment that pays off for everyone. if you want to be good stewards of our taxpayer money, if we didn't do that, it would be irresponsible to the nth degree. and republican senator shelley moore capito agreed specifically praising the money going to her state of west virginia to elevate a highway to prevent flood damage. i look forward to seeing it happened. i think this is what it means, what it means to rebuild in a and smart areas. secretary buttigieg says there's a reason the support is bipartisan, but i think that reason is that there's no republican or democratic roads or bridges. they're just pieces of infrastructure. we all count on every day in washington. i'm hannah brandt. beneath the city's glow where bart's lines softly. we've. >> a story of us begins in the twilight of the eve. my friends is the opening line. 2 under the stars of valencia, a bart love story and the winner

warriors need this win. right now. they're tied in the standings, technically with the lakers. they actually have the 9th seat over the lakers and the lakers right now sits when it comes to their record is the same a win tonight for the warriors with solidified most likely that record to stay that way because the lakers, they have the grizzlies tonight at 9 times out of 10, they will get that game tonight in memphis. that being said they have the tie breaker. the warriors do over the lakers. so it's ok if their record remains the same. but if the lakers take a game ahead of them, they dropped back to that ian, they lose their home court advantage that they right now hold if they were to start the play-in tournament today. now that being said, jonathan kuminga is actually out tonight. he was the second leading scorer with 19 points last night portland for the warriors. what the court did say that hit or he actually had a play that actually just a little bit. so he needed to rest tonight. now. >> gary payton, the second is also out tonight. you will not see him out there, but they did. they didn't mention quite

being out. he didn't mention draymond green being out, although they say all especially dream. and last night he we do expect him to play tonight and they'll need them against a high-powered. can see that's also on a 3 game winning streak and they do look lose at all because they are right now holding the 60 in it trying to solidify front as we get closer to the postseason. now that being said, i de pere, how important is this when although it's not a must-win, take a listen to what he had to say. >> you know, if if we win tonight and sunday, then we have a legit shot at 8 that's a big deal. you know, get to. 2 chances to win one game. you also have a chance you know, move up to the 7 seed. if you win that 7, 8, playoff play-in game. so obviously where we want to just win every game and put ourselves in the best spot possible. >> put themselves in the

possible. that's exactly what they need to do when you think about it. that's exactly what has happened with klay thompson since being moved to that ben te'o. he's been playing amazing basketball and actually said today in the press conference that he's just playing with joy and freedom, which is actually the motto for the gymnastics team for cal bears hit it to the national week. but it's funny how that is also transpired here with the warriors, especially the klay thompson. definitely been a must have for the warriors and some of these winds lately. and they need him show up tonight as well. now we'll have a full breakdown, of course, 06:00pm in sports before right about the back to you guys in the studio. mayor wilson banks going to be chasing a bump in tonight and sunday. and to the regular season. can't wait. all right. >> we'll check in with aaron later. >> meanwhile, the a's are back in the coliseum tonight. plan the washington nationals in tonight's game is the first home game since the team announced plans to start play in sacramento next season. so.

>> what more is a picture. so will be interesting to see her on the mound. the ballers now have 31 players under contract going into the club's spring training. >> so a little clip instagram or twitter, something i apologize. if posted it can't give you credit. but she was humming it in there she can really throw a fastball. so that will be fun. the can't wait to see what the ball is have to offer. i know a few people who already have their ticket, you know, to season ticket. yeah. i think one, bonnie. yeah. exactly. are signed the dust >> huge a's fan days. and yes, and i mean, >> they're looking for something to fulfill some of problems. they have the a's leaving. but the ball and i love those jerseys. heavy check out the jerseys. i mean, they say always, yeah, i know i cool. yeah. i want to get one of those. folks of your head around the bay area need extra jacket this weekend, but it is going to be cold. you may have felt the change in the weather today. the temperatures really taken a major hit. some of the numbers today, 20 degrees colder than

yesterday. so you see the clouds moving onshore. we've got that wind that is kind of kicked up outside and that ushered in the much cooler weather going to be even a lot colder by tomorrow. clouds rolling in near the golden gate bridge right now, looking a little more ominous turning pretty gray out there. and that is because we're getting ready for a late season storm rolling into the bay area. how about those temperatures? yeah, look at this. boy. they really took a hit today. 21 degrees colder in livermore today. a 20 degree drop and cocker 14 degrees cooler in san jose and 13 degrees cooler in hayward. you get the idea that much cooler air already working its way on shore. so we went from temperatures in the 70's and the 80's today topped out of 58 degrees actually below average in san francisco today, below normal in oakland today, 60 to 68 in san jose. 64 degrees. little remember yesterday there in the 80's also out of the 80's 66 degrees and 64 degrees in santa rosa. that is a trend that's going to take us into tomorrow, too much colder air on the way tonight, cloudy skies, rain developing really around midnight or so and then

spreading across the entire bay area overnight tonight with some gusty winds to go along with that some of those gusts. 35 miles an hour or so tomorrow should be partly cloudy. so we'll get the heavy rainfall overnight tonight and then we'll just turn into showers as we head throughout the day. so you see some showers, some breaks, some sunshine in between the clouds, maybe even a couple of thunderstorms popping up outside this late season storm bringing with it. that area of low pressure very close to the coastline. and that may be just enough to crank out a couple of thunderstorms, especially along the peninsula. all right. look at that. suddenly wind kind of kicking in the clouds flowing overhead so far staying dry, but not for long. the system want to come rolling on in as we head in toward tomorrow, making for another weekend of some rain. boy, we've had a lot of that this year. more on the way. here's models picking up on as we head through the night tonight into tomorrow morning. we're into that rainy start to see the blue in the pink here that some snow being picked up by the computer models. don't be surprised if you look up the hamilton tomorrow afternoon and see some more snow up there that shower activity continues as we head toward tomorrow night

as well. maybe a better chance thunderstorms by tomorrow evening. then even a lingering shower into sunday as well. so be prepared for that rainfall totals. yeah. maybe as much as an inch of rain or so across parts of the bay area. so you get the idea. look at the temperatures tomorrow. but this is amazing. or even try to drive a close to a cold. miss highs only tomorrow in the 50's outside all around. some of the models may be over the mountain tops. we could very well see numbers generally in the 40's. so very, very cold out there. those temperatures stay cool. maybe a little bit unsettled on sunday as we get into next week, return to some dry weather. so this could be it. this may be the last storm of the season. a sad well, a little bit. yeah, but you know, they do something still coming. so i'm keeping my hopes up. i'm looking like this that this is going to be but actually maybe, you just never know. i mean, it's that time of year where things kind of wind down, right? yeah. if you want to be a real shot, caller, you've got commit to this is that this is it that this is the big one. so enjoy it. all jeremy. well, thanks.
