yet where it's coming down right now. the impact from yesterday's storm including where flooding is still causing problems this morning and when we should dry out for a bit. then a chp officer shoots and injures a man on a san francisco freeway. what we're learning about the incident that closed part of 280 for hours, then cutbacks local schools due to declining enrollment. how many classes are going away for the next school year in the san francisco unified district from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two. >> good morning, and we're so glad you're here. i'm gasia mikaelian and good morning i'm dave clark. >> it is thursday. it's february 1st. first day of the month. >> we say rabbit rabbit to ensure a good month ahead and hopefully a break in the rain. soon we'll see. >> paulson knows i'll get right to it. >> san mateo coast will go there because that's where a line of thunderstorms is moving onshore. the san mateo peninsula kind of missed out on rain. i mean, los altos and woodside had about an inch and a half. but look at that line. there's numerous

lightning strikes. i'll just extrapolate this out here. and you can see so near woodside, west menlo park, menlo park proper itself, mountain view and sunnyvale, i would expect some maybe some lightning here and some brief heavy rain moving through. there are other bands that are moving, but now you can see there's some areas that nothing at all. others can get some brief downpours. that's what we're dealing with today and probably tomorrow before we will get, i think, a break on saturday. the next big system will be on sunday. who'll stop the rain? well, not me off and on. morning rain cooler. some fog, mostly cloudy, occasional rain with thunder storms. temperatures are coming down 50s upper 50s to near 60, but a lot of 50s here. all right. sal's here. 701. and he will begin. where? well well, you know, in san francisco, northbound 280. >> steve is better and, you know, right now traffic is improving. after it was very slow. they're getting up to the alameda maze. so i do want to say that if you're driving from, let's say, daly city to the alemany maze, it is looking okay

. there are no major problems there. if you are driving on the bay bridge, it's still kind of slow as you drive around the corner to the toll plaza. or i'm sorry, to the tunnel and into the city. and right here at the toll plaza, there's a bigger delay. so it is going to be very, very slow. so as you try to get onto that span 701, let's go back to the desk. >> well the rain is starting to let up in some parts of the bay area. after several hours of downpours, it almost a full day of rain in some areas. the north bay is one of the most hard hit areas. ktvu bailey o'carroll up near sonoma creek this morning where there is some flooding, let's talk about road closures first. bailey garcia yeah, we are near highway one, 21 and 1212. >> this street, fremont avenue, is closed from eighth, uh, down to probably just about a mile down the way to my right there. the reason in being. well, that's because of all this flooding here. we'll start with you mentioned the sonoma creek. you can see the creek flowing

right through there. and it's appeared to have overflown. uh, can't tell exactly how deep it goes right there. but you can tell that eventually or not too long ago, maybe this roadway was completely covered in water by all the tree limbs that looked to be pretty soaked, that are in the road here. it doesn't look like they just broke off and blew from the wind. there incredibly wet, so it looks like water possibly carried them out here. and then you can see kind of near that street light the intersection that you're looking at. now, obviously, the creek overflowing into that intersection also. but i also want to show you across the street here. so we'll kind of walk a little bit, uh, just across fremont avenue. uh, the obviously the creek, uh, didn't quite overflow, maybe over the entire street. uh, but you can see it is quite deep over on this side, too. we're not too far off from some wineries. i can actually see some of those vines from where we're standing now. uh, and there is a tasting room somewhere on the other end of the street. we actually can't

see all the way back there from where i'm standing right now. uh, but there is a sign outside that says tasting room closed. today i'm going to guess they put that up yesterday and, uh, that that closure will remain in place today because again, we tried to kind of get an idea for how deep this water goes right here. but we just can't see exactly how deep it goes. so this whole area, kind of this little half circle where i'm standing, uh, probably was completely flooded, completely underwater for some of that water has gone down a bit. we were out talked to caltrans, uh, earlier this morning, and they told us the flooding was a lot worse in the overnight hours. it's gone down a little bit, but they're going to keep this road closed until that intersection that you were looking at, some of those flood waters go down a little bit until it's safer for cars to drive through here. we've already seen a number of cars get turned away who have tried to pass through here in caltrans says turn back the other way. you've got to go all the way back out and around. take highway 121. if you do want to get to sonoma. but luckily the rain has let up. there's no

more rain here. hasn't been for about an hour or so. so that's good news to hopefully help this flooding go down sooner rather than later. reporting live from sonoma. i'm bailey o'carroll, ktvu, fox two news okay bailey thank you. >> time now 704. the santa clara county office of emergency management warns if you live or work in the south bay, take precautions because of all the heavy rain, the dangers include falling trees, power outages, slippery roads and flooding. now, after last winter's powerful storms, the santa clara valley water district has trained its crews to prepare for the problems this winter. >> we're clearing out a lot of sediment from the creek the larw possible. um, and so allows that water during the winter months to flow through, uh, smoothly out to the bay and, and, uh, right now during, during the winter months when we see storms and things like that, we make sure that we get out into our creeks and we're cleaning up debris and anything that may cause a blockage in the creeks

as well. the valley water also closely watching creek levels. >> the manager recommend you double check if you live in a flood zone and have an evacuation plan. a number of bay area communities are opening emergency shelters for people who need to get out of the rain. >> the caritas center on sixth street in santa rosa will be open until friday in san rafael, people can take shelter at marin health and wellness on kerner boulevard in oakland. the jack london square aquatic center on the embarcadero, and the east oakland sports center on eads avenue were open in san jose. people can go to the roosevelt community center on santa clara street and emergency crews all over the state are being mobilized by the california office of emergency services for weather related dangers. >> in fremont, firefighters and fire trucks have been pre-position. they're ready in case they have to respond fast. it's all part of the emergency resources for alameda county. it includes five fire trucks, a hand crew, a bulldozer, and extra dispatchers. >> it's a good a good thing for

us to get ahead of this, right? so instead of being reactionary, we're progressive and we're setting up beforehand so that when the calls for service do come in, we're not overwhelmed. we can have the resources in place to mitigate the problems and these emergency crews are often called to make swift water rescues and other kinds of dangerous rescues. >> now, ktvu has extended coverage of the storm in our fox local lab. you can find additional forecasts from our meteorologists and see video of the storm, as well as be told you'll find out what to expect this weekend. it is free to download on your smart tv 707. >> now the chp is investigating a police shooting on interstate 280 in san francisco yesterday afternoon. police responded to the area after receiving calls about a man on the freeway, according to highway patrol. an officer shot the man following a struggle. officers say they found a knife at the scene and say they think it belongs to the person who was shot. the freeway southbound lanes were blocked for several hours. another person was taken to the hospital

and is expected to survive. santa rosa is moving forward with plans to reduce violence through the city. the council wants to expand violence prevention programs, including intervention specialists at hospitals and middle and high schools. the city also wants more outreach, social activities and safe spaces for teenagers. city analysts say that schools will be key when it comes to reducing gang activity. >> we training them like on gang 101 information right? letting them know like what are the current gang trends we're seeing what are some of the warning signs that they need to look out for school staff, and what resources are available in the community to help our young people and divert that sort of behavior. >> the city just held a violence prevention awareness seminar and has another plan for october. declining enrollment is leading san francisco public schools to make cuts. the district plans to have 60 fewer kindergarten through fifth grade classes next school year. administrators say all the classes are fewer, are

under half full. the district is currently deciding the number of spaces available at each school to maximize resources for middle and high schools should remain, for the most part, unchanged. urged. a legal settlement creates new rules for how california public schools should spend $2 billion to help students recover from pandemic learning setbacks a lawsuit was filed back in 2020 by the families of 15 students from oakland to los angeles. it accused the state board of education of failing to provide the support needed for low income students to access remote learning during the pandemic. as a result, the state will target the $2 billion of remaining learning loss money to low income students. it doesn't say exactly, though, how that money will be spent. >> all right, our time is 709. the billionaire investors in solano county are slightly scaling back their plan to build a renewable community in california forever. the silicon valley backed company originally wanted to build an urban center on top of an 18,600 acre site near the city of rio vista,

organizers have now filed an amendment to their proposed ballot initiative that reduces the plan by 1100 acres. their plan also says water could come from someplace else, as railroad tracks are being set up. now, organizers still wanted to vote 4000 acres to open green space, which still offers affordable housing. >> time is 709 right now. we do have some slow traffic and a new crash on interstate 80 westbound at san pablo avenue. it is right there. that's the new crash. we've had a couple of other fender benders in the rain and we also have some slowing on the richmond bridge approach, which is not all that unusual, especially when it's raining. you can see the westbound bay bridge is still pretty slow today. i think people are taking it easy. we also had some earlier issues on the bridge that are now clear. bay bridge is backed up all the way out to the bay maze. it's interesting to see it will be interesting to

see if things clear up a little later, as they have this week. right now, no problems on 24. things are improving there. after we had a rough start to the morning. 710 let's go back to the desk. >> all right. thank you sal. well, another oakland restaurant is closing and crime is blamed. we'll tell you what customers are saying about yet another longtime business is leaving oakland. plus this is a really interesting place on the coast of california. >> california's coastline is getting some help from a returning marine mammal. how a resurgence of sea otters is helping to protect land from eros n

the denny's restaurant in oakland on hegenberger road, is now the latest restaurant to close for good in the airport area because of rising crime. ktvu frank mallicoat here in the studio now to tell us about the restaurant closing down after being in business. frank, 54 years. yeah, it's become kind of a weekly thing in the city of oakland. >> the denny's restaurant closed down for good yesterday. many longtime customers say they were surprised and very disappointed. wow >> i did not know that. it's overwhelming. it is because i've been coming here for years. terrible that oakland's like this. this is probably the oldest business on the block, and it's closing down. sad

>> that restaurant, like many others along hegenberger road near the airport, have been the target of car break ins, robberies and other crimes. sign on the front door says the reason it's closing is the safety and well-being of denny's employees and its customers. >> i'm a product of the bay, born and raised, and it saddens me because when i was out of state, i was proud where i'm from, you know, and now i just kind of shut it. i just shake my head because of all the crime going on. >> i feel so bad for the city of oakland because it's like everybody is living. >> data from oakland police show more crime in the hegenberger corridor than anywhere else in the city of oakland, and many of the criminals target unsuspecting tourists coming from the airport and rental cars who are likely to have luggage inside. last month, in-n-out announced it would close its location there in march, and at the raising cane's on hegenberger manager says they were forced to close their indoor dining area and provide employees with a secure fence for parking, all due to break

ins. denny's now joins other restaurants near the oakland airport that have closed black bear diner, subway and starbucks , to name a few others. dave we'll send it back to you. >> okay, frank. thank you. time now. 715 a new report on electric vehicles shows electric vehicles may be no match for the guardrails along many highways and roads nationwide. engineers tested a rivian pickup truck, letting it run into a steel guardrail at a testing center. the truck barely slowed down until it hit the concrete barrier behind the guardrail, the experts say. guardrails are made to stop vehicles that weigh about two and a half tons. the truck weighed almost four tons because of the heavy batteries, it requires safety officials say. that much weight could cause more serious injuries to people in gas powered cars. the trucks appear to protect their occupants better and san francisco city leaders want to make it illegal to make a right

turn at a red light. now, at this new proposal is approved, the no right on red rule would extend through many areas, including the financial district, the embarcadero, and south of market. the goal is to make the streets safer for pedestrians and cyclists. >> sea otters are helping to protect a northern california estuary that had been collapsing on itself. the estuary moss landing, about halfway between santa cruz and monterey, is full of wildlife birds, crabs, insect . one of the crab species has been eating away the plant roots that help stabilize the banks of the solution, decided to relocate sea otters to the righe going over to sal. >> we're going to help you get to where you need to go on this first day of february. is it getting any better for you out there, sal? >> some commutes are getting better. dave others are still very slow. 80 has a new crash. west of 80 on the east shore freeway at san pablo avenue, and we had a couple of other crashes there. so if you're driving in,

let's say from hercules to berkeley, it's going to be slower than usual. there's a look at the richmond bridge approach. it is slow, and it's also slow onto the bridge. and there's interstate 80 westbound getting out to the toll plaza. no problems. it's a little crowded on the bridge, which is typical interstate 880. it looks like it stopped raining here. and things are getting a little better. and highway 24 also has improved. as you head over, let's take a quick look at that san mateo bridge. that's okay. and so is the dumbarton bridge. but we do have some slowing in some of these spots. it's still a little bit slow. 717 let's talk to steve now with today's weather. >> all right sal, we will head over to the peninsula san mateo coast. that's where one line moving through lots of lightning strikes observed. all looks like they've they've diminished her taking place there. one piece of energy is goingsfo, another diving more south if i, if i do this here and this would take it over towards los altos hills, mountain view, sunnyvale, santa clara and san jose in the

next couple of minutes to about 15 minutes or so. so that's the main line. heaviest rain was up in the russian river area. guerneville over four and a half west of healdsburg. four and a quarter sleepy hollow in marin county. looks like the leader even more than mount tamalpais. 4.22 novato was closed 3.75 376 ben loman at 375 and bodega bay, three, and a third, san rafael, also with really good rain, over four inches of rain. konocti three petaluma 2.60. the city two and a third yountville over to los gatos 1.62. los altos 1.53. in oakland, an inch and a quarter. that's the line moving through. it's kind of splitting part is hitting now. now towards the southern end of the peninsula, san jose, santa cruz mountains. the other band right up here is heading over the san mateo bridge. i think we just saw that right over to hayward and san leandro. so still plenty going on, although again, it's more isolated, not widespread. a mix of rain and snow. rain turned to snow at tahoe keys and they've picked up a little bit there. i know you can see though. again, it's a fine line there at lake level between rain

and snow. our system has mainly plowed through now. the colder, unstable air is coming in behind that there will be off and on rain with thunderstorms taking us into friday. i think we get a break saturday. sunday though, everything and i mean everything right now is pointing towards the heaviest rain towards the santa cruz mountains. but even down to monterey, san jose, santa clara valley, about san francisco, oakland south, there will be rain north, but the heaviest rain looks to be favored to south this time versus up towards the russian river, as we saw in the last 24 hours. off and on rain, cloudy to mostly cloudy. some thunderstorms rumbling through 50s on a lot of the temps. they'll stay here for a while. some rain on friday. i think we get a break most of saturday. next rain sunday. monday. steve thank you. >> 720 here. coming up, the storm is having a big impact on california reservoirs. while one of the state's largest reservoirs is now releasing water and the 49ers ready to practice again and get ready for the super bowl. >> we'll tell you what's planned for the last few days before they head

getting through it. oh, the rainy weather may not be as bad this morning as it was yesterday, but communities all over the bay area are feeling the impact. we'll tell you what the storms have done to trees in some parts of the bay area. and guess what? it's not just rain hitting northern california. these are live pictures, right this second from the olympic valley base area of palisades tahoe. you can see for yourself that snow coming down. we'll go there, live to the sierra where it's hard to get up the hill right now from ktvu. >> fox two news. this is mornings on two. >> well, good morning and thank you for joining us. welcome to mornings on two. i'm dave clark i'm gasia mikaelian.

>> it is thursday february 1st. let's get straight to our meteorologist steve paulson. this might be a situation where people say i don't have any rain. just wait. right. >> or they may say it's pouring, but yes, you're correct. there are some areas don't have any. mainly south and north doesn't mean we're done, but this is more hit and miss in nature. boy that's a that was a good line that punched in right on the san mateo coast. it split part went over san mateo now heading over towards hayward. but i would think on the san mateo bridge there's some pretty good rain. also in between menlo park and mountain view, heading over towards san jose. that's one san francisco's had over 2.5in of rain in 24 hours. and look at that line stretching right there, right back over towards richmond coming out of marin county, back over towards san pablo bay, but out towards benicia and also vallejo, probably hiddenbrooke american canyon that looks to be the line who will stop the rain? well, for some i'll do my best, but for others it will still happen off and on. rain today. more thunderstorms possible today. tomorrow, saturday does look like a break before the next system. rain and wind on sunday. all right, sal is here. i'm sure

he could start in many places, but he will begin with, well, with a question. >> what? you know where i live. what is it going to look like looking out my back door this afternoon? it's going to be rainy or sunny. i think you'll see some sun. >> then it'll rain. then you'll see sun again. >> okay. gotcha. thank you. steve i've got my own personal meteorite list. it's nice. i've got to tell you. westbound 80. let's start there. right on 80. westbound coming through san pablo and into richmond. and it is slow. we had a couple of earlier crashes that were in the lane. the crashes are still there. but you know how it is. people slow down anyway. richmond bridge has a long line getting to it. it's improving a little bit. that's at least the good news. 80 is moderate. after that, and at the bay bridge, we still have a rather large backup. 732 let's get back to the headlines. >> it is a two hands on the wheel kind of day, with windshield wipers going anywhere from full speed to intermittent. the rain is also causing hazards on and off the road. ktvu rasmus has been driving through it all for hours. she's live in san francisco, where you've arrived

at a pretty dramatic scene. there behind you. >> yeah, we are in the city's midtown terrace neighborhood that's very close to twin peaks. in fact, we're right underneath sutro tower behind us. you can see in the middle of noelville drive, very residential area. there is a 40 foot monterey pine that came down early this morning spanning the width of this road here, and we talked to the homeowner here. luckily, the home isn't doesn't appear to be very seriously damaged. it looked like the tree fell just short of hitting the roof. so he's been out here taking some pictures for insurance purposes. but the good news is no one here was hurt and no one is. there's not some any serious damage. there was no cars parked underneath here, but earlier this morning, just south of us in daly city, we came across a tree, came crashing down onto the top of an apartment building. we can show you the video of that. that happened late last night after the heavy rainfall on king street in daly city. again luckily, no one inside that apartment was hurt, but this morning they are

expected to start clearing away the tree down there on the peninsula. we don't know how many people were displaced, but back out here live we had to move out of the way because it looks like san francisco public works is in the process of starting their work to try and cut up this tree so they can remove it from the roadway. again, this is no crown terrace neighborhood up in the hills in san francisco. so a lot of monterey pines, which is what came down here in this neighborhood that have been here for about a half a century or so. but again, the owner of this home here says he's glad that no one was hurt. doesn't look like there's any serious damage to his home now. it's just a question of clearing this out of the way. live in san francisco. ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> okay, ali, thank you. time 734 along with the downed trees in other parts of san francisco, have had problems caused by the heavy rain in the mission district is one of the low lying areas that often become flooded clearing storm drains. some

businesses have sandbags readyie it all in stride. >> and i know we need the rain, but but trekking it across the city in the rain is no picnic, and getting on a bus is not fun. >> it's raining. that's a good thing i have. no, i lived in oregon for 13 months. it rained nine of them. so this is nothing . now >> city officials also advised call 311 if there's a problem. that's a minor inconvenience and only call 911 when it's dangerous or something life threatening, like a downed power line. >> the santa rosa fire department swift water rescue team is on standby standby during this series of storms. >> those crews kind of met up this morning, checked all their gear, got their boats ready and are ready to deploy at any time if needed within the city or into some of the neighboring jurisdictions if they were to need assistance from us firefighters and sheriff's deputies across sonoma county are monitoring the local creeks

and the russian river now. >> flood stage at guerneville is 32ft. right now the river is under 15ft. now to an incredible sight in northern california for a state water managers release water from the oroville dam in anticipation of a lot of rain. the state posted this video of the release from the dam's main spillway. lake oroville is currently at 76% capacity. see? it's the spillway. these are the images that are so breathtaking that was rebuilt after it collapsed back in 2017, forcing the evacuation of some 200,000 people in california's to hittia major water capacity milestone. it hasn't seen in seven years. water levels at lake shasta have been rising steadily over the past ten days. newsweek reports. if the lake rises by another 39ft, it will reach capacity. officials say the dam gates have already been raised to prevent any spillover from this most recent storm. now, of course, we have you covered throughout mornings on two. you can also stay on top of the storm anytime by heading to the ktvu weather app. we have updated information

traffic gets bett a crash at san pablo dam road. we had a crash at san pablo avenue. and that whole stretch is not doing very well. and then we see the richmond bridge is pretty slow. and it had been raining there. it looks like it's slow almost all the way across that span did not stop and go, but slow and go for sure. if your freeway is moderate, then the bay bridge toll plaza is backed up. finally, we're beginning to see a little bit of the rain letting up there. it was very slow. this is a look at 880 and that traffic looks okay. we haven't had a lot of slowing in san jose. there's some but it seems to be just a little bit better than it normally is. i can put the grid up just to show you that, yes, there is some slow traffic here, but it is a i say it's moderate commute based on san jose standards. 739 let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> oh, i'm going off the grid, so i want everyone to leave me alone here. off the grid, right off the grid. >> copy that. thank you. sir

>> all right. sal is correct. some areas, nothing at all. but others. it's coming down pretty good. i'm taking a look. a couple of bands that came right along the san mateo coast are now moving inland. this is right on the san mateo bridge. san mateo, foster city, right over now to union city. hayward and san leandro. that looks to be one band. another one has split, but it moved in. but now it's favoring areas more towards the santa cruz mountains, southern end of the peninsula towards sunnyvale, and then heading over towards campbell, los gatos in san jose. there are numerous areas with some rain, but we'll get to that in a second. all right, we'll start with the rainfall. penngrove 2.87. thank you. jeannie for that. guerneville looks to be the winner this time. 4.59 west of healdsburg. four and a quarter sleepy hollow, marin county beat beat kentfield and mount tamalpais. how about that? you go sleepy hollow, novato, three and three quarters, ben lomond, three and three quarters. bodega bay three and a third, san rafael had good rain as well. over four inches of rain. boyes hot springs. thank you joan. thanks. sonoma over three inches

the heaviest this time around was to the russian river. next time will be santa cruz mountains south. some sun breaks , mostly cloudy off and on rain possible thundershowers cooler. that's the main message. 50 on the temps saturday, right now i'll go out on a limb there. it's a it's a weak limb, but i'll go out on it and say we'll get a break saturday before the next round comes in. sunday. monday. >> okay. see time 741 a california gun law struck down by a new court ruling. why the decision blocks a move to require background checks to buy ammunition. >> we'll go to our newsroom now. say good morning again to frank mallicoat. as you're looking ahead to the next hours of mornings on 2nd august. >> dave, good morning. hi, everyone. california's coastal communities have problems as more storms move through the area. the battle to save some of the state's piers, as many cities try to figure out how to adapt to climate change. and later, coming up on the nine, a new proposal could bring similar laws. you see in new orleans and las vegas to some of our california cities. take a look at the legislation that's aiming to create outdoor entertainment

my double bonus jack combo gives you double the seasoned beef, double the cheese, for $5.99. let's see that again. ( ♪ ) double beef, double cheese, for, yeah, $5.99. huh, good deal. after a slow start to the season there. so far. reporter melanie wingo live in kingvale up in

placer county, where melanie temperatures are expected to drop here pretty soon. yeah, garcia, we're seeing a light snowfall right now here in kingvale and we're roughly at the 6100 foot elevation here in this sierra. of course, the summit itself is around 7200ft. just to give you a sense of where the highest point is, as folks travel over interstate 80 and the sierra right now, i am at the caltrans maintenance yard. and this is where all the snow plows and sanders and heavy machinery that's used to clear interstate 80 is kept and what i'm going to do right now is hop back in our news vehicle, because we want to give you a driving view of what conditions are like once you hit the roadway. so so off to the side of the road. and now we're back in the vehicle itself, i'm going to buckle up off to the side of the road. you're going to see some heavy accumulation for

anyone who's traveling up this way today. and as we head on through the caltrans yard, you can see some of those rigs that are kept out here. they have those, like i mentioned, the snow plows, the sanders, all the big trucks are here. caltrans working 24 over seven to try to keep the roadways clear from snow. so we did have a lot of snow come in in the late afternoon and early morning hours. the conditions at the higher elevations are where the snow is sticking. so about 5000ft in elevation on up through the summit elevation, which is again around 7200ft. you're going to encounter these slick conditions. these chains are required starting at nyack for all of your viewers who are headed in this direction and typically travel this way to take advantage of the ski slopes and get out there to take advantage of some of the snow that is falling. we know that they will encounter those chain

controls right at nyack. also, if they are headed in the westbound direction, expect to get chain controls in truckee. we're going to head out of the caltrans yard right now, and then we're going to hit one of the side roads that leads toward interstate 80, and we will make our way back to just give you a sense of what the road conditions are like out here. as you can see, the snow is sticking to the roadway for anyone traveling in the traveling in this direction, you will want to carry traction devices or chains and have all wheel drive with good tires. if you want to go that route. caltrans and chp are telling me on numerous occasions throughout the season that it's not good enough just to have all wheel drive. you have to have those reliable, all weather tires as well to make it past those chain control checkpoints. so this is a little slice of how things are going up here in the sierra. as we make our way back to

interstate 80. um, we are taking it slow because anytime chain controls are up here in the sierra, you have to keep things at 30mph or lower. just to keep things safe. i'll send it back to you now in the studio. all right, melanie wingo, stay safe out there. thank you. >> all right, melanie. thank you. all right. time now. 748 yet another bay area company just announced job cuts this morning. >> also, wall street watching another round of important earnings reports. pam cook is tracking this in a whole lot more in dollars and cents. bay area tech stocks certainly in focus this week. many of the big names in tech report earnings this week. they typically give investors an indication of the job outlook and economic conditions. today after the closing bell, we hear from apple and amazon ringing the opening bell this morning. amherst sports is the parent company of wilson, the company making all those super bowl footballs we showed you this morning amherst sports celebrating its listing on the exchange. it is based in finland also owns ski gear company solomon. so they're

another 700 million in expenses is expected in the first quarter of this year after another 1000 employees were laid off. however the billions of dollars in expenses is less than 1% of the company's annual. $307 billion revenue from last year. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents pam. >> thank you. 751 let's get out the door. leave a little extra time today. i'm guessing sal, i'm looking at the south bay and that is beginning to get a little slower, but it does seem a little better. >> i think that sometimes people, when it's raining, they decide they're going to take some of their meetings at home. it is. don't get me wrong, it's not light. there but it's not as heavy as it was. let's say on monday when it wasn't raining, everyone seemed to be on the road. let's go back to the bay bridge. you can see traffic here is moderate. there are no problems on the bridge. we had a kind of an early start to the slow traffic. things are improving on 880 and 580 heading into oakland, and 24 is still crowded, but fortunately, when

it stops to raining, the traffic improves rather quickly. 751 let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> thank you sir. yes, sir. all right, we'll get to it here. uh, it's too bad there's nothing going on. all right, let's take a look here. some activity has decreased rapidly. as sal mentioned. there's still some, though. a pretty good band came right along the san mateo coast. that split, though. part went from about san mateo, foster city over towards hayward. now lying around fremont. i'll show you some of these. we zero in on a little bit better here. that's the line right there from san leandro. hayward fremont, union city, newark, uh, just went right over the dumbarton bridge in the san mateo bridge. and also another line is stretching now from sunnyvale. looks like it's kind of falling apart in the santa cruz mountains. all right. i think we have a new winner here. warren, san anselmo hills, 24 hour reading of 4.81 as of 7:50 a.m. and still raining. i believe you're the winner because guerneville 4.59 west of healdsburg. four and a quarter sleepy hollow, also in

marin county, four and a quarter novato, ben lomond, bodega bay, three and a third to three and three quarters san rafael had really good rain as well. over four boyes hot springs, sonoma, three plus san francisco two and a half santa rosa. thank you dan two and a half yountville two los gatos inch and two thirds los altos inch and a half oakland 1.29. that's what we call a lovely base map. uh you can see rainfall projections today and tomorrow decreasing, but still some. we're not done yet, but i would think a 10th of an inch to maybe two thirds before we get a break on saturday. so our system has plowed through. we're getting the colder, unstable air now, uh, the sierra, the colder air arrives tomorrow for the sierra. uh, there will be some big totals, but maybe kirkwood's mammoth south more so than north is kind of the way it's looking. uh, some of the forecast models are trending big time for santa barbara south as we head to the sunday, monday, tuesday time frame. so maybe it'll be more south, even santa cruz mountains. we have a couple of days to get through the details, mostly cloudy, some off and on rain, occasional thunderstorms,

cooler though 50s on the temps. do think saturday though. does look like a day of a break at least. >> thank you steve. coming up, we've been showing you the impact of the storm here all across the bay this morning. next we head to southern california to see how people there are faring. weeks after major flooding devastated parts of san diego, a live report on conditions in the southland next. also, new research into the impact of energy drinks on children. while doctors are warning children and teens not drink those h two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat,

california law that requires background checks before anybody can buy ammunition has been blocked again by a federal judge . federal judge roger benitez says the law violates the second amendment. he claims the background checks essentially forces californians to ask the state for permission to buy ammunition instead of treating the purchase as a right to bear arms. so thatrillionuling stops the enforcement of the law for the time being. back in 2020, judge benitez blocked the law. back then, however, an appeals court reinstated it. the very is national change your password day and the experts remind us every time we log on to a website, we're sharing personal information, making us more vulnerable to hackers. they say there's a hack attack someplace in the world every 39 seconds.

so changing your password is best protection. but what you choose as your password, that's also really important. >> secure password is long. um and a secure password also does not involve your personal information. so some people are tempted to put things like names or birthdays in their password to make them easier to remember. but those sorts of details are the kinds of things that can, um, fall into the wrong hands in a data breach situation. >> now, cyber security experts say changing all of your passwords every year may seem overwhelming, but it's better than having your valuable information stolen. also they say if you're concerned about forgetting the new passwords, use a password manager to. it is 758 researchers are warning about the effects of energy drinks study in the uk examined more than more than 20 countries who drank

here to campus after incarceration, it was very hard to get a job. >> i was homeless for 20 years. it's the first time that i'm now have a home again because of housing on campus. >> the funding will make it possible to help students with their academic expenses, as well as basic needs like housing, but this potentially could be a bad one because the ground is so saturated and so we're expecting some moderate to strong winds. >> so it normally is a problem. we are not done with the rain just yet where it's coming down right now. >> and the impact from yesterday's storm including where flooding is still causing big problems this morning. and what we should see a bit of a break as well. and a chp officer shoots and injures a man on a san francisco freeway. what we're learning about the incident that closed part of interstate 280 for hours last night at cutbacks, said local schools due to declining enrollment. how many classes are

going away for the next school year in the san francisco unified school district from ktvu, fox two news, this is mornings on two and good morning, everyone. welcome to mornings on two. you can see there is a sliver of hope out there. we still got a lot of cloud cover and the rain is tumbling down in parts of the bay area. but a little sliver of blue sky and we need it high again. i'm frank mallicoat good to have you with us. >> good morning. i'm gasia mikaelian it's the first new mo. starting off, i don't know, nott of an active, you know, animal because thisha some of us had expected here, steve? >> a tiger, a bobcat, maybe bobcat, bobcat, bobcat, right. a puma, a puma. there you go. uh, we do have some rain, but it's true. there are some breaks in there, some locations. i don't have anything here, but others say, hey, hey, it's still raining. uh, most of this is about san mateo. over to hayward, south towards fremont and los altos, heading to santa

cruz mountains as well. north there's a little bit also been coming out of marin county, right over san pablo bay, over to richmond, and then mainly along the 80 corridor, then back out towards benicia, vallejo, uh , you can see that line there. so there's still some. and thunderstorms have popped up earlier this morning along the san mateo coast will stop the rain. well, we'll try some areas. don't have it off. and on morning rain. occasional rain with possible thunderstorms. cooler though with 50s to low. low 60s. all right. sal is here. 801 bridge freeway. what are we beginning with, steve? >> we're going to go to a freeway on the peninsula to start off with a pretty serious crash. northbound 280 at truesdale. all uh, this is a deadly crash. what happened was a vehicle went into a tree, and now they're calling for the coroner in that area. it's going to be there for a while. hasn't caused a huge traffic jam. i just want you to know about it. uh, inbus accident northbound 8, uh, davis street. that's pretty slow from hayward, heading up north. 580 is a mess. heading

out to dublin. we had a couple of crashes there. it's really kind of tough driving when it's raining. if you're leaving castro valley trying to get out to pleasanton. 580 is going to be very slow. 802 let's get back to the headlines. >> thank you sal creeks and streams in the north bay are running high this morning following a big night of rain. ktvu tom vacar is live in san rafael this morning with a look at some of the flooding. >> yeah, here's the situation. this is called santa margarita creek. it's a concrete creek because they don't want to flood all of the other houses that are around here. now, this illustrates an important point. we just had a gully washer and this line came up a foot, foot and a half in in the last minute or so. and the reason is because it's draining the entire box canyon that represents terra linda, the northern part of san rafael. now, i want to take a look down here. here's one of the problems. when you have any kind of obstruction, this doesn't have debris because it's

concrete. but in any other kind of creek, you could have an obstruction like that. and if trees and bushes get up against that, then you have this problem of this backing up. the other problem here is because this is in the neighborhood, it's fenced off. but that doesn't mean that a child or a animal could get in here. and this is swift water to say the least. this is going way faster than anybody could control it. so as a result, this is where swift water rescue comes in. so while this is being drained here and being drained, well, everything downstream still remains soaked and because of the swift water issue, it's all dangerous down there. now, this is just one creek out of thousands of creeks throughout the entire bay area. now, what i want to do is take you up to sonoma county, where we had some other stuff today at the corner of 121 where it goes into sonoma , that's, uh, connects sears point and sonoma to the napa valley. uh, it floods and it floods often because it's a situation where it's low to the

water and the water is rising simply because of sea level. so it's harder for things to drain more quickly. that renders more roads more unusual. and that's exactly why highway 37, which connects 101 to vallejo, has to be raised in order to keep it as a useful highway that it's the situation right here. and these are good illustrations. we're going to continue north now, and we're going to see what else we can find. uh, to show you about this whole problem of what's coming afterwards. because remember, everything downstream from here is still soaked and being constantly soaked by the flow of water. and that's true in every creek. reporting live from san rafael, tom vacar, ktvu, fox two news. >> tom, thank you, santa clara county office of emergency management is warning people about potential storm related damages. everything from fallen trees to power outages, slippery roads and flooding. after last january's record breaking rain, the santa clara valley water district started training its crews in the summer to prepare for the winter time issues.

>> as we're clearing out a lot of sediment from the creek so that they have the larger flow possible, um, and so allows that water during the winter months to flow through, uh, smoothly out to the bay and, uh, right now during, during the winter months when we see storms and things like that, we make sure that we get out into our creeks and we're cleaning up debris and anything that may cause a blockage in the creeks as well. >> all valley water is also monitoring creek levels. managers recommend that people double check if they live in a flood zone and know the location of the nearest sandbag station. a number of bay area communities are opening emergency shelters for people who need to get out of the rain. the caritas center on sixth street in santa rosa will be open until friday in san rafael, people can take shelter at marin health and wellness on kerner boulevard in oakland. the jack london square aquatic center at the embarcadero, and the east oakland sports center on eads avenue are both open in san jose. people can go to the roosevelt community center on santa clara street. time now is 806. >> california's office of emergency services is mobilizing

crews across the state for weather related dangers. in fremont, a group of firefighters and fire trucks is pre-positioned in case they need to respond quickly. this is all part of the emergency resources for alameda county, which includes five engines, a hand crew, a bulldozer and extra dispatchers. >> it's a good a good thing for us to get ahead of this, right? so instead of being reactionary, we're progressive and we're setting up beforehand so that when the calls for service do come in, we're not overwhelmed. we can have the resources in place to mitigate the problems these emergency crews are often called for swift water, mudslides and other types of rescues. >> ktvu has extended coverage of this storm on our fox local app, where you can find additional forecasts from our meteorologists and see video. the storm, as well as what to expect over the weekend. it's free to download on your smart tv 807 now. >> the chp is investigating a police shooting on interstate 280 in san francisco yesterday

afternoon, police responded to the area after receiving a call about a man on the freeway, according to highway patrol. an officer shot the man following a struggle. officers say they found a knife at the scene and say they think it belongs to the person who was shot. the freeway southbound lanes were closed for several hours. another person was taken to the hospital and is expected to survive. >> federal investigators continue to look for information about what led up to a plane crash on tuesday that killed a pilot in concord. they're looking over the plane and focusing on its fuel system and its engine. that's because witnesses said they heard the engine sputter right before it came down. we're we're looking at the pilot. >> we're going to look at the airplane and then the environment that he's, uh, actually flying in that day. and uh, we do have several witnesses that have, uh, um, given us, um, statements that have that we're trying to draw were that we've taken into evidence.

>> the ntsb has confirmed the pilot was from the bay area, and the faa reports the plane was owned by a man with an address in berkeley. >> santa rosa is moving forward with plans to reduce violence through the city. the council wants to expand violence prevention programs, including intervention specialists at hospitals and middle and high schools. city also wants to make more outreach, social activities and safe spaces available for teens. city analysts say that schools will be key when it comes to reducing gang activity. >> training them like on gang 101. information right? uh, letting them know, like, what are the current gang trends we're seeing? what are some of the warning signs that they need to look out for school staff, um, and what resources are available in the community to help our young people and divert, um, that sort of behavior. >> the city just held a violence prevention awareness seminar. it has another one planned for october. >> declining enrollment is leading san francisco public schools to make cuts. the district plans 60 fewer kindergartens through fifth grade classes next school year.

administrators say all these classes are fewer than half. full district is currently deciding the number of spaces available at each school to maximize resources. middle and high schools should basically remain unchanged, and a legal settlement creates new rules for how california public schools should spend. the lawsuit was filed back in. it ad the state board of education of failing to providee sstudents to access remote learning during the state will target the $2 billion of remaining learning loss money to those low income students. doesn't say exactly how that money, though, will be spent. >> a group of billionaire investors is slightly scaling back its plan for a renewable community in solano county. the silicon valley backed company california forever originally

wanted to build an urban center atop an 18,600 acre site near the city of rio vista. organizers have now filed an amendment to their proposed ballot initiative that reduces the plan by about 1100 acres. the plan also says that water could come from somewhere else as railroad tracks are being set up. organizers say they still want to devote 4000 acres to open space and build some affordable housing. >> time now is 810, and we have to go to the peninsula. a deadly crash northbound 280 at truesdale. a car was driving northbound and ran off the road and hit a tree. speed may have been in factor, but the investigation continues. there's not a huge backup. there is one past the scene. we also want to mention that the east bay is a mess. getting out to dublin very slow out of castro valley a cra. south bay is beginning to get slow. here's a live look at 280 san rain clouds. slow traffic there. and of course we always

restaurants near the airport that have shut down, like the black bear diner, a subway and a starbucks. and in and out burger will shut its doors in march. many california beachfront cities have peers that are popular with tourists and residents, but climate change has some community leaders questioning the cost of maintaining them. >> storms and waves are more powerful now than when most of those piers were built. some of california's most popular piers, including the capitola wharf and san diego pier, are currently closed because they're so badly damaged, scientists say the problem will likely only get worse. >> this is going to be an increasing problem for all kinds of coastal infrastructure, and we're not going to be able to rebuild back in the same places and in the same ways that we did before. >> the capitola wharf in santa cruz county is already under repair. that works expected to finish before the end of the year. engineers decided to make the wharf more resilient by making it twice as wide, and the pilings are being built so they

can be raised over time if that becomes necessary. the project is costly. residents say it's worth it. i think we can do it so that they'll, you know, last for a while longer. >> it brings a community together to it's kind of a focal point for the community. city >> most of california's piers have undergone major repairs after erosion from the ocean, even fires. while the work is costly, once the piers are gone, it would be nearly impossible to replace them. >> well, the same system that's hitting us right now here in the bay area is expected to hammer san diego residents there are prepared for river swells and urban flooding. today's storm comes a week since san diego experienced one of its wettest january days since the 80 seen hundreds. fox's weather's max gordon joins us live in san diego, where they are likely over all this rain. i can only imagine. max. good morning. >> yeah, absolutely. residents here they are sick of the rain and they don't want to see any

more flooding. but that is maybe be what we're going to be experiencing here in san diego. the rain just started coming down about 45 minutes ago. we're expecting to get between an inch to an inch and a half once this storm system moves through between today and tomorrow. but right now, i want to show you we're standing along the san diego river right now. things are relatively calm, but by the end of today, toward the afternoon early evening hours, this river is expected to hit minor flood stage at about ten feet. now this, of course, comes after you said it. they're the fourth wettest day on record for the city of san diego. that's 174 years of record keeping. they got 2.73in over there at san diego international airport. and that caused massive flooding in some neighborhoods. feet of water inundating some neighborhoods, people losing everything. we spoke to one person yesterday who said she just got out with only her wedding album and her kids baby photos. just nothing left. now, since that occurred, the city

has been trying to do a lot of work, trying to clear away mud debris, trying to clear those storm drains because that was really the biggest issue. we had a lot of water falling down in a very short period of time, but the drains simply weren't clearing that water away. and so city officials, residents here hoping that all the work that was done over the past couple of days will pay dividends and they won't see the type of flooding that they saw last week. but really, right now it is just a waiting game, seeing how bad the storm is going to be. and then after this one, we're expecting another, potentially even worse storm to come on its heels. that's going to be hitting sunday. all the ground here is going to be very saturated. and so folks living in low lying areas are being told to be on the lookout and to be prepared to evacuate back to you. >> yeah. max i was down at southern california a week and a half ago. i remember that monday it was epic to choose a word. tell us what officials are doing. are they ready? are they prepared for this? this

>> yeah. the city does believe that they are ready for this. incoming storm. really? the main messaging to folks is that if you live in one of those low lying areas, you got to be ready to get out. they have, you know, voluntary evacuation orders that have been issued for those areas. but really, the work that's been done over the past couple of days has really consisted of trash removal, debris removal, and mud removal. hundreds of tons of debris had to be taken out of these drains, out of these culverts to get ready for this incoming storm. they're also going to have storm teams out and about surveying these drains. make sure making sure that that the drains are going to be clearing the water properly and making sure that trees aren't falling down in the midst of the storm. because we're also looking at 40 50 mile per hour wind gusts associated with this storm. so we got those gusty winds, sloppy soil. we're going to see trees toppling and the potential for power outages. so a lot of dangers associated with this storm i was going to say not a beach day. >> that ocean will be angry, no doubt in southern california. uh, max gordon live for us in

san diego. we appreciate the report. and don't forget, you can get more on this story and a lot more with our fox weather app. just use your phone to scan that qr code on your screen, or go to the fox weather.com. >> all right. driving has been tricky as we expected. starting yesterday. hopefully people heeded your advice and left a little bit early. >> garcia, you used the adjective tricky. i'm going to use a different one. terrible terrible, because if you're driving out to, let's say, dublin, we've had a long standing crash and also some just debris on the road. this whole dublin interchange thing is not great. heading out, not great, bob. not at all. so if you have to go, just know that it's going to be tough. it may be correlated. i'm going to ask steve if it's been raining there or not. there on the dublin grid. it just really has been slow. this whole area is slow. northbound 880 getting up to san leandro, if you can put the trip

off, i think you might do yourself a favor. let's talk about the bay bridge that is still backed up. it's been deep. this morning we had a couple of earlier spots on the bridge that were earlier troubles on the bridge that are now gone, and the san mateo bridge traffic is also heavy, although it is not stop and go. i do want to mention once again that we have that deadly crash northbound 280 at truesdale. it's not causing a big backup. i think you should know it's there though. there's a slight slowdown past the scene. people get going fast on that freeway, so don't be caught by surprise here. 821 let's go back to steve. >> answer is yes. >> raining through there? yes sir. >> gotcha. i'll show you right now here. castro valley, hayward , back over towards dublin, pleasanton. it's been some pretty good cell right there. that's heavy rain at least on 680 there towards bernal exit, maybe down toward the sunol grade as well. but that that's one band going through. we are on the backside of a lot of this. so everything is decreasing. but wrapping back into fremont and then milpitas

and then also towards sunnyvale, santa cruz mountains. and then you can see right there over to cupertino and sunnyvale as well, los altos hills. but a lot of this is trending towards the backside of it, which means we'll start to see a decrease here. kevin leaving sausalito two and a half for 24 hours from sausalito. so uh, although it looks like san anselmo was the was the winner at about 4.68. guerneville west to healdsburg, sleepy hollow, novato, ben lomond, bodega bay, three and a third to 4.59. other locations san rafael at big time. rain, four inches of rain. boyes hot springs, sonoma three plus san francisco over two and a half. santa rosa two and a half. yountville two, los gatos 1.23. well ancient 62 100, los altos inch and a half and oakland 1.29. we are going to still see occasionally some rain, but there will be a couple 100 to maybe a half inch. just depends on one of these cells parks that over you today and tomorrow. that does look like a break on friday. on saturday next system coming in will be here on

sunday. there are major differences between some of the forecast models. some of them are trending more south. another one though, has big time rain forest. so again two days away, three days away. we'll see how this develops. but it does look like it will favor a little bit more south and north, but still stay tuned, as we like to say, off and on morning rain. some sun breaks though mostly cloudy, but the worst is over by far. 50s on the temps here. staying cooler and colder will start to move in, especially tonight. tomorrow i think we get a break saturday before the next system. sunday monday, may 24th. >> the storms having a big impact on california's reservoirs by one of the state's largest reservoirs is now releasing water back to work for the 40 niners, ready to practice again and get ready for that super bowl on this soggy thursday, we're going to tell you what's planned for the last couple of days before they jump on that plane and head to vegas

growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined abortion rights in our california constitution. in the face of trump, i strengthened hate crime laws and lowered the costs for the middle class. now i'm running to bring the fight to congress. you were always stubborn. and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message.

and there's more to come after almost a full day of rain, we will look ahead to when we should dry out a bit and where rain soaked ground is causing trees to give way. plus, a spectacular sight from the oroville dam that's meant to head off some of the problems that can come from too much rain. how this should help protect communities down stream from ktvu. >> fox two news. this is mornings on two and it's a busy one. >> we're glad you're here. i'm gasia mikaelian. hi everyone, i'm frank mallicoat. >> thursday, february the first steve is earning his keep today. our entire weather team and reporters as well. although it seems to have kind of slowed

down a little bit. >> it's more hit and miss now. the worst is over by far. there's still some bands going through the next big system would be sunday. sunday monday. if it hits us, there's a couple forecast models that trended much farther south, but not all of them. so we have a few days to sort out those details. a little bit of lightning activity by fremont, but you can see that band moving through. but behind that there are noticeable breaks and some bands moving through again from marin county, which still gets some rain. but overall we are seeing a change here who'll stop the rain? well, we'll try and stop it on by. if not tomorrow, then saturday before the next round, but off and on morning rain came. rain. possible thundershowers. today we're already seeing a little bit of that, but noticeable breaks here. 50 on most of the temps. all right. sal is here. peninsula. where'd you say? peninsula? i think peninsula to east bay. >> steve, we have a all over the place. really? let's start off with a look at the bay bridge toll plaza. you can see that the traffic is getting just a little bit better. not much, but at least there's some improvement

there. also though, looking at the san mateo bridge heading across to the peninsula, it looks all right on the peninsula. northbound 280 at truesdale. car right off the road into a tree that turned into a deadly crash. unfortunately northbound 101 is slow through san mateo into burlingame. name 832 let's get back to the headlines. >> and as steve has been telling us, some parts of the bay area are still seeing heavy rain. some areas have seen more than four inches in just the past 24 hours. that's led to some flooded roadways and fallen trees, and work is underway to remove one of those trees. k2's ali rasmus live in san francisco. i mean, it looks bad, but honestly, things could have been a lot worse. ali >> yeah, garcia, you can see and hear the work going on behind us. this is noelville drive, a residential area in san francisco. this is in the midtown terrace neighborhood, right near sutro tower. and you can see the san francisco public works crews have now sawed w ac. they've sawed it in half. they're getting ready to put part of that massive trunk into the tree chipper here. i spoke

with the owner of the home that the tree fell right next to earlier this morning. want to talk on camera? but he said he was lucky that this tree didn't fall onto his house. so the only damage he said, was a little bit of paint scraped on the outside of the home from those branches you see here. so good news. no one was hurt and there were no cars parked underneath this tree either. but it's the kind of thing we expect to see in the bay area whenever the ground is soaked. just south of us in daly city last night, a tree came crashing down onto the top of an apartment building on king street. it happened around 1030 last night after heavy rainfall. luckily, no one inside that apartment building was hurt, but we don't know how many people were displaced by all of this. now, uh, back out here, live in san francisco. uh, this is noelville drive is a really pry shot. you can see sutro towerli.

>> so, as you heard steve say, the brunt of the storm and the rain has now moved on. >> and so now the cleanup is underway in some neighborhoods, including here in midtown terrace in san francisco, live in san francisco, ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news, ali thank you. >> downed trees aren't the only rain related problems in san francisco. the mission district is a low lying area often becomes flooded in heavy rain. city crews have flood barriers in place, and they're clearing the storm drains there. some businesses have sandbags at the ready. residents say they're trying to take it all in stride. >> i know we need the rain, but but trekking it across the city in the rain is no picnic and getting on a bus is not fun. it's raining. >> that's a good thing i have. no, i lived in oregon for 13 months. it rained. nine of them. so this is nothing. city officials say that people should call 311 with storm related issues that are minor inconveniences and save 9.11 only for dangerous or life threatening situations such as downed power lines.

>> time now is 835. >> steady rain cover parts of the north bay, with more than three inches of water. merchants officials in napa county warn residents that the storm could bring flooding, downed trees and power outages, as well. yesterday, the storm caused a brief power outage for more than 1500 customers at a cafe in downtown fairfax, owners said the outage happened right around the dinner rush. >> we're in the middle of serving tables with about three quarters full. you know, and all of a sudden the lights are out and the kitchen is down. you know, you have to look for candles. i had a couple of tables and then i had a few pizzas in the oven working. >> so that was interesting. we got our little flashlights out, try to look in there. >> some other local businesses set up flood barriers, stacked sandbag bags outside their doors, heavy rain also slowing traffic on streets and highways in the north bay. >> an incredible sight now in northern california as state water managers release water from oroville dam in

anticipation of a lot of rain. take a look at the video the state posted of the dam's main spillway. the release there to help provide flood control protection for downstream communities. now lake oroville is currently at 76% capacity. this is the spillway that was rebuilt after it collapsed back in 2017, forcing the evacuation of some 200,000 people. california's biggest reservoir is close to hitting a major water capacity milestone it hasn't seen in seven years. water levels at lake shasta have been rising steadily for the past ten days. if the lake rises by another 39ft, it will reach capacity, officials say. the dam gates have already been raised to help prevent any spillover from this most recent storm. we do have you covered throughout mornings on two, and you can also stay on top of the story anytime by heading to the ktvh weather app. we have updated information there and live radar images. it's a quick free download for your smartphone. >> california's black legislative caucus introduced a package of 14 new bills to tackle the issue of reparations for the descendants of people who were enslaved. the bills are

modeled after recommendations made by the state's reparations task force, which were released last month. the bill includes a demand for a formal apology for human rights violations from the governor and legislature, as well as wide ranging reform and education, criminal justice, health, business and civil rights. none of the bills would provide direct payment to individuals, landlords and renters, and concord will have to wait a couple more weeks for a decision on rent control. >> the city council pushed back its vote at a public meeting last night. the proposed ordinance would limit rent increases. it would also provide stronger protections for tenants and require just cause for evictions. other east bay cities, including berkeley, oakland, oakland and richmond of all passed rent control ordinances of their own. sea otters are helping to protect the northern california estuary that had been collapsing on itself off the estuary at moss landing, halfway between santa cruz and monterey, is full of wildlife birds, crabs, insects.

one of the crab species has been eating away the plant roots that help stabilize the banks of the estuary. experts looking for a natural solution decided to relocate sea otters to the estuary because of otters often eat the crab when they came into the system, they that is super abundant in the marsh creek, and by eating that marsh crab and lowering its densities, they lowered the erosion effect of those crabs and thereby slowed the sloughing of the creek banks. >> silliman says that marshes increased production and fisheries protect against erosion during powerful storms, and gather and hold carbon 10 to 20 times faster than forests. >> all of which can help slow global warming. >> i would imagine those otters are mighty happy right now with all this rain coming down, but starting to slow down. let's check in with steve and get the weather word on a crazy day. >> still some, but yes, winding down here, some areas are getting some sun breaks, others there's been a line that just keeps coming out of marin

county, going across san pablo bay, then kind of flirts with vallejo, benicia, american canyon, hiddenbrooke out to cordelia, and then also around the 80 corridor. and then you can see that line, but the heaviest is or strongest cell was one that went over san leandro, hayward, castro valley, dublin, pleasanton and back over towards sunol, union city, fremont, a little bit. one lightning strike there to the east of fremont. it back through just to the east of milpitas. there maybe up to around mission peak. so don't go up there today. uh, also back into the santa cruz mountains. now that is beginning to make its move there. but other than that, i mean, there's just i mean, the worst is over by far. it looks like san anselmo had the most observer warned there at 4.68, guerneville had good rain west of healdsburg, sleepy hollow, novato, ben lomond, bodega bay, all between three and a third and over four and a half. san francisco has just i mean, 2.56l over for boyes hot springs. thank you. jones san francisco 2.56 santa rosa. thank you dan

two and a half yountville over two jc i've not heard from you in yountville. usually you let me know. los gatos 1.62 los altos an inch and a half and oakland 1.29. one of these days i'll fix that base map. tim. one of these days i'll fix that base map. thank you. tim. uh, still some rain, but more hit and miss here over the next 36 48 hours. a quarter of an inch to maybe two thirds would probably cover the spread. that big system is now moved out. the colder air is spilling in. so this will help start the lower snow levels. as i was telling garcia, the colder air starts to come in tonight. more so tomorrow. some of the heavier snow projections are being forecast about kirkwood mammoth south not so much north. there is a huge difference between the forecast models for sunday, monday and tuesday. one of them absolutely slammed southern california. another one paints us with some more impressive totals. so only three days away and but that won't be until sunday. so often morning off and on morning rain some sun breaks but

mostly cloudy. partly sunny here. 50s on attempts, cooler temps have moved in here, no doubt about it. we'll get some rain friday. i do think we get a break saturday. sunday will be the big key day. i think we'll get some rain, but the heaviest looks to be south for now. steve >> thank you. time now is 842. buckle up for a closer look at the slow lane when he joins us on the nine. how commutes are hitting the brakes nationwide, including some here in the bay area. and what's contributing to longer commutes. >> also ahead, a california gun law struck down by a new courtrillionuling. why the decision blocks a move to require background checks to buy ammunition. more on that when we me b k

may be no match for the guardrail along many of california highways and roads, even nationwide, engineers tested a rivian pickup truck. there it goes by having a run into a steel guardrail at a testing center. the truck barely slowed down until it hit that concrete barrier behind the guardrail. experts say guardrails are made to stop vehicles weighing about two and a half tons, while the truck weighs nearly four tons. because of the heavy battery size, itrillionequires safety officials say that much weight could cause more serious

injuries to people in gas powered cars. a truck appears to protect their occupants better. san francisco city leaders would like to make it illegal to make a right hand turn at a red light. if that new proposal is approved, the no right on red rule will extend through many areas, including the financial district, embarcadero and south of market. goal is to make streets in the city safer for pedestrians and cyclists. well, some california college students are petitioning to push starbucks off their campus. also peloton's plans to turn things around is slowing down. >> pam cook, back in studio for today's dollars and cents. good morning again. peloton has been. >> can you guys hear me? okay there we go. peloton has been trying to grow its paid subscriptions for its fitness classes, but in its earnings report this morning, the ceo announced it is still months away from meeting sales expectations and turning a profit. peloton stock dropped

more than 20% when the opening bell rang this morning, ringing that bell amherst sports, the parent company of wilson, the company making those super bowl footballs. we showed you amherst sports, celebrating its listing on the exchange. it is based in finland, also owns ski gear company salomon. taking a live look at the numbers they're up across the board after those, uh, a little bit of a sell off yesterday, when the federal reserve announced that it is delaying, uh, the interest rate decrease, dow jones up about a quarter of a percent, the s&p 500 up about a half. same with the nasdaq this morning. san francisco based okta is the latest tech company to announce layoffs. the identity management company plans to cut 400 employees, which is about 7% of its workforce. in a message to employees, the company's ceo said the layoffs are due to, quote, the reality that costs are still too high. this is the second round of layoffs for okta, which cut 300 employees a year ago. shell reported a $28 billion profit for 2023. it's

down 30% from the previous year's record of $39 billion. as a result of lower oil and natural gas prices still making quite a profit, oil prices surged in 2022 as a result of russia's invasion of ukraine, which sent oil prices sharply higher and some students at uc riverside and ucla held protests calling for the schools to end their contract with starbucks. the students claim the company has held union busting campaigns across the country. students have been leading efforts to kick starbucks off college campuses in response to the coffee company's push back against workers attempts to unionize, students at uc riverside in ucla are circulating petitions calling for the schools to not renew their licensing agreements with starbucks. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents. >> pam, thank you for super bowl week. both the niners and chiefs will stay in a resort area in the city of henderson, nevada, about 20 minutes southeast of las vegas, local papers report. the nfl didn't want the teams distracted by the las vegas strip. there is commonly

referred to as lake las vegas. now the niners headquarters will be the hilton. the chiefs are at the westin. i think this probably from a worldwide perspective, kind of brings lake las vegas on the map here. >> as far as like i said, i think it used to be more of a secret. and i think, you know, obviously the super bowl is a worldwide event. and i think that's a great thing for lake las vegas. >> the las vegas convention and visitors authority predicts the super bowl will have a $600 million impact on the southern nevada economy, after what was expected to be their last tour dead and company's long, strange trip could still be trucking along. >> i want to tell you how it's going to be all right. well, the band featuring former grateful dead members along with guitarist john mayer, have announced a residency in las vegas at the newly opened sphere. van says it will play 18 dates at the new arena starting may the 16th. they'll go through june the 22nd, dead and company

and what was announced as their final, final tour last summer with three sold out shows at oracle park. tickets go on sale next friday and i would imagine they will get gobbled up in a hurry. >> i am sure they will. all right. 850 this is usually the time we do our last check of traffic. that's not the case today. sal we're extending your traffic reports into the nine because a lot of people may be delayed their commute to keep out of the heaviest of the rain. >> that's absolutely right there. garcia and frank, right now, we do have a lot of slow traffic lingering. steve said that there was a you know, there were a couple of things that were lingering there with the rain showers and that does affect the weather. it's still very slow. on 880 from hayward into fremont and still super slow on eastbound. 580, leaving castro valley, heading out toward dublin and livermore. in fact, that's slower than the commute direction, which is the other way around. also, if you are driving on the peninsula and the south bay, we have some slowing there and it looks like it's raining, or at least rain just now on san jose freeways, bay bridge is not improved too

much. it's still backed up to the maze. very slow. 850 let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> did you see the size of that spider on there? can boris the spider is pretty big. >> he's back. >> all right. thank you. we'll start up in the mountains. things see some partly cloudy skies. it was there for a while. thank you. heidi, up in truckee. happy february steve. well, thank you. heidi picked up a nice accumulation overnight. when can we expect more? i would say tomorrow when the colder air arrives, you'll see more. they'll it will pick up. no doubt about it. sunday into next week there will be more of this. the way it's looking, it's been kind of a mix of rain and snow, but as the cold air begins to move in, we'll see the snow levels drop here, especially when we get these fast moving systems. i'd have to say san anselmo was the winner. our observer warren had four point almost eight zero. alex san anselmo 4.44 24 hour total. so not bad. more heaviest rain was marin county by. i think they were the leader there. still some activity, but you know again there's some noticeable breaks. we have sun here at the

mothership ktvu in jack london square, but a little bit from marin county over san pablo bay, right back over towards vallejo and benicia. that strong cell that sal was talking about, one went right over hayward, union city, dublin, pleasanton kind of fell apart over livermore, port livermore. you missed out on this one there. there was only about a half inch to three quarters. but you can see that lightning strike just to the east of fremont. milpitas bullets over san jose is right there. that's what sal was looking at. and also going into the santa cruz mountains. but again, this is more hit and miss here today. so off and on rain but some sun breaks in there. a little cooler though. mostly cloudy, partly sunny, some rain possible. thunderstorm to get to build ups. 50s on the temps. i think we'll get some activity tomorrow. a break on saturday, a significant difference in the forecast projections for sunday monday, but we'll go with rain for now. thank you steve. >> coming up next, grieving parents taking action against big tech on capitol hill. when you join the nine shortly, we're going to take a look at the kids online safety act,

which targets the dangers of social media and new research into the impact of energy drinks on children. >> what doctors are warning children and teens not to dr k those highl ca
