tonight, power outage problems stretching for nights on end. tens of thousands of bay area p-g-and-e's customers sitting through another night in the dark. good evening. i'm ama daetz and i'm dan ashley. >> thanks for joining us all of that as we're gearing up for another mix of active weather tomorrow. rain, snow and some danger along the coast. >> yeah, the national weather service is warning of sneaker waves overnight and through the early morning around 4 a.m, those swells can surge farther up the beach and catch you by surprise. >> now for more on what to

expect, abc seven news meteorologist sandhya patel is tracking it for you. sandhya. >> yeah, dan and take a look at the beach hazard statement. it is in effect, as you just mentioned, until 4 a.m. tomorrow. that's because breaking waves up to ten feet, those large swells expected to impact the coast. right now, bodega bay is at 12 and point arena at 11, but the weather service is saying, generally speaking, this is what we're expecting a light level one system is headed our way, and as it does, it's going to begin your morning commute with some showers at 7 a.m. rainfall will increase in coverage and intensity by 10 a.m. you will notice some pockets of moderate rain, even brief heavy rain going into the noontime hour. the winds will pick up 46 miles an hour at 9 a.m. along the coastline, still gusty well into the afternoon, 38 miles an hour point arena. you will notice 33 san rafael, so be prepared for the potential for some more trees going down. not nearly as intense as the storm over the weekend, but it is a one tomorrow. rain moderate at times. gusty large swells and the possibility of snow over our

higher peaks. i'll be back with a full timeline coming right up. dan all right, thank you sandhya. >> well, it's been a long few nights, certainly for many people in the bay area. the power outages are affecting everyone from restaurants and families. and now, to those with specialized needs. >> p-g-and-e's says as of an hour ago, nearly 40,000 customers are without power. now it's slowly dropping, since that was in the hundreds of thousands on sunday night. but each remaining outage has many people on edge. >> abc seven news south bay reporter lauren martinez is following the frustration in this is the kind of power outage that needs to be covered. >> this is the kind of situation that needs to be covered. >> diane kelly says her husband is currently on the third floor of a skilled nursing and assisted living center in saratoga. >> kelly says the facility has been running on an emergency generator since sunday. >> the staff is doing the best that they can and they and they do a great job, but without power, how much can you do? >> p-g-and-e's had a crew

working the outage off saratoga los gatos road tuesday evening. >> when we're able bodied, we can do it. they're not able bodied, you know, and the staff can only do so much. >> reporter a family, an unincorporated scotts valley, have been staying in a hotel after sunday's powerful storm caused a massive redwood tree to lean on their home. the homeowner said after getting the runaround between a utility company and law enforcement agencies, and his insurance company is insurance will help cover the removal of the tree for an estimated $34,000. extreme weather is hitting homeowners already dealing with an insurance crisis. >> it is literally the hardest market i have seen in my 35 years. i've never seen a time where insurance companies don't want to sell insurance. the state continues to see an exodus of big and small insurance companies. >> some companies have cited wildfire risk, inflation and construction costs. some agents say price controls within the state system makes it difficult

for insurance companies to increase rates. >> i think that this is going to sound scary, but i think consumers need to brace for large rate increases for home insurance. i don't think companies are going to get back in the market until they can get 50 to 75% rate increases in the preferred markets in the south bay. >> lauren martinez, abc seven news while things dried up today, here much of southern california faced another day of rain. >> los angeles has seen more than ten inches since sunday. homes are barely hanging on in santa barbara and isla vista. cliff eroded, leaving apartment buildings on the edge. look at that. 45 people were forced to evacuate after inspectors evaluated the properties. residents were allowed to return home, so we thought maybe the storm would finished. >> um, uh, yesterday. but it came out with a vengeance again this morning. >> more than 300 mudslides were reported throughout los angeles. officials warn there could be more to come with a smaller storm rolling through tomorrow. president biden and governor newsom pledged to provide

federal aid to areas hit hard by the storm. >> just tremendous damage there. well, another area feeling the frustration from these power outages is along the peninsula. >> yeah, there are still thousands of p-g-and-e's customers in san mateo county now on night three of blackouts. and earlier tonight we drove to one local resource center in half moon bay, staying open to help people get powered up. but some rural areas along the coast are left just sitting in the dark. >> abc seven news reporter tim john spoke with one family on the outskirts of half moon bay and has their story. >> just getting home to a dark house for yet another night, julie and her husband alex have come home to a house with no power. >> the couple, who live on the outskirts of half moon bay with their young family, have had no electricity since it was knocked out by sunday's intense storm. >> you need power for a lot of things a baby monitor, a sound machine, things that parents know are pretty critical for making day to day life be a easier. >> this isn't the first time

that julie and alex have had trouble keeping the lights on, either. at one point during last year's winter storm season, they had no electricity for weeks at a time. julie tells me that while she appreciates the hard work that p-g-and-e's crews do, the struggle to keep the power on during weather events has become a seemingly constant worry. >> it's really frustrating to feel like we're forgotten about, frankly, being in a more rural setting and, you know, it's just as hard for anyone in to go day and day. we were without power. the electricity is only one concern, julie and her neighbors have to drive along the road leading up to their small mountainside community. >> and you come across thick mud and heavily damaged roads. remnants left behind from previous storms that alex says are still not fixed. after over a year of waiting, we had a power line go down. >> we had a large tree uh- go down, making our road inaccessible, p-g-and-e's estimates the couple's power will turn back on sometime wednesday evening, but after many disappointing experiences in the past, julie says she's not counting on it.

>> we are expecting, you know, right now that we're going to be out of power for a while and half moon bay time to go to sleep in the dark. >> tim johns for abc seven news. >> asleep in the dark once again, there are still some local parks, schools and golf courses staying closed because of outages and storm damage. we have all of that in one place for you. abc seven news.com. or you can go to the abc seven news bay area app as well. >> and now to the new developments in the city of oakland. in an attempt to cut down on violent crime, governor newsom is calling in reinforcements in the form of the chp. governor newsom will deploy 120 cal highway patrol officers to help tackle crime in oakland and neighboring cities. mayor shengtao says it could happen in as soon as a week. chp officers will help with traffic stops, recovering stolen vehicles and patrolling the hegenberger corridor near the city's airport. that area has made headlines in recent weeks, with the announced closures of the in-n-out and denny's there. we spoke with abc seven news insider phil matier earlier today. >> chp is not bound by oakland

rules, and that's a quiet little unspoken deal here. when they're on the ground with oakland cops, they can do things that oakland cops can't do, phil says. >> of those things is chasing suspects. oakland police aren't allowed to chase unless it's an extremely violent crime. that's in order to prevent dangerous situations in neighborhoods. in 2023, crime statistic show violent crimes in oakland increased more than 20. robberies went up nearly 40, car thefts. rose 45. and we went to our abc seven neighborhood safety tracker to get more perspective. and you can see it too. we have this tool with full data for oakland, san francisco and san jose on the front page of our website, abc seven news.com uh- teachers union political group, has filed a second lawsuit over the proposed baseball stadium for las vegas. that's right. they are seeking to block the state from spending taxpayer dollars on the ballpark. the legislature approved up to $380 million for the project. >> now, this comes as the mayor

of las vegas today said she thinks the a's should focus on staying in oakland instead of relocating. she says the plan to put a ballpark on the strip just doesn't make sense, given all the traffic, all right, let us get to the countdown to super bowl 58. >> we want to talk about all of the buzz coming out of las vegas tonight. you're looking live at allegiant stadium, where the 40 niners will be trying to win their record tying sixth super bowl trophy. and it is a party all week across town with just five days left until the game, the strip is now packed with people and that includes the oldest steakhouse in town. they say they are booked this entire week. >> yeah, it's the golden steer steakhouse known for its old school style that's reminiscent of california gold rush days. >> in fact, elvis, joe dimaggio and marilyn monroe were all regulars tonight, our team coverage starts with abc seven news reporter j.r. stone to give us a taste of what super bowl week has to offer. in the shadows of some of las vegas newest hotels is the golden

steer steakhouse. >> not only the oldest steakhouse on the strip, but one with a city by the bay kind of feel to it. >> if you walk into the golden steer, you're going to feel like you're touching and feeling that atmosphere. that was san francisco back in the 60s and the 70s, the leather, the lights, the feel. >> amanda signorelli and her husband run the golden steer, which has been in her family for many years. it actually used to be on san francisco street, and this was in san francisco plaza, now called frisco plaza. pack were regulars along with elvis, who was said to be seen eating burgers at the bar when he first started coming. but the san francisco feel is what likely attracted baseball great, and san francisco native joe dimaggio. here, many, many years ago, joe dimaggio, marilyn monroe here at the golden steer. >> we actually have two joe dimaggio booths. we, as we like to say, we have one joe dimaggio booth for when him and marilyn were happy and one when they were not so much. >> it appears that the who's who

of the nfl know all about the golden steer. signorelli says the restaurant has been overbooked for this super bowl week for nearly three months. we're actually opening 30 minutes early to try and accommodate walk ins, and tuesday night every seat was full here at the golden steer. as to joe dimaggio, there aren't any specific stories as to what he would eat, but when marilyn monroe came, she had a specific diet, a ribeye steak and carrots in las vegas, j.r. stone, abc seven news sounds pretty good. >> yeah. it does. all right, let's bring in the long lost member of the rat pack. abc seven sports director larry biel live with us in vegas. larry, do we even want to know what you've been up to? >> well, lost describes part of it. i'm pretty accurately, but i just. i just know that jr had, like, a porterhouse steak tonight. that was somehow not included in his story as for the rest of us mere media members, they held a big super bowl party

tonight and this was held at the formula one pad. that's what they call it. that was the staging area. and we have some video for you to show you just what the scene was like, because the nfl throws one of these parties every year. and as you can see, filled with lights and music and they even had robots uh- up on the third floor a lot, a lot going on here. i'll just say uh- it was free food and free drinks. some people had those fancy rum, tequila and vodka drinks and others of us did not. and uh- and a good time was had by all. but really several thousand people were at this event and good fun, good fun in las vegas. as for what we did earlier in the day, both the 40 niners and the chiefs talked about brock purdy. you might be surprised about what the kansas city players had to say about

the man they'll be facing on sunday. that's coming up in just a bit interesting. >> all right. that is a tease. all right. thank you larry. we'll see you back for much more later in sports. now >> stay with abc seven all week as we bring you live team coverage from las vegas tomorrow morning. we explore all vegas has to offer. we get that out from the desert heat and find a couple places to chill out in vegas. >> none of this is for show. this is not like fog machines in here. this is not plastic. this is really cold in here. >> thing from ice bars and prohibition speakeasy is abc seven news reporter zac prentice will have all of that on abc seven morning starting at 5 a.m. stay with abc seven all week long as we bring you live team coverage from super bowl week in las vegas. >> california's hall of famers see the faces making up this year's newly inducted class unsafe and unfit the issues some female firefighters are pointing out with their uniforms. >> plus, if every student deserves to understand that there our phone is not magic.

>> turning tech into power. the across californiaclassrooms 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, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home.

the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message. this ad? typical. politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter. porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message.

politicians, including willie brown, expressed gratitude and appreciation to all of the willie brown fans that are here, because i don't know that we've ever had this many people. >> it was quite a night at the california museum in sacramento, as the state honored some of its greatest citizens. >> one of the first honorees, leon panetta. he served in a variety of roles, including secretary of defense and director of the cia. born in

monterey, he was the son of italian immigrants, something he touched on in his speech. i used to ask my dad, why did he come all that distance to come to a strange land and i never forgot his answer. >> he said, my mother and he believed. they could give their children a better life in this country. cheryl miller is widely considered one of the greatest female basketball players of all time. >> the winner of multiple championships on the court, she was taken aback by her fellow honorees, with whom she shared the stage to be recognized by, you know, other athletes is, you know, i get it, but this is a whole different level. >> los lobos and the go-go's were both honored bassist kathy valentine hit on what sets the golden state apart. >> i mean, only in california could a bunch of scrappy little girls from hollywood end up on a stage with such esteemed,

innovative genius, brilliant, talented people. >> people like our honorees, willie brown made history when he became san francisco's first black mayor and was regarded as one of the most powerful politicians in california. >> he, too, was humbled by his induction. >> and tonight, as i said, i never thought i'd ever be afforded the opportunity to share the stage and to share for all of the things that all of these people have done. but my career has been blessed, wonderful moment in sacramento tonight. >> also inducted chef helene, an father of the internet, vinton g . cerf, filmmaker ava duvernay, a civil rights leader. thelton henderson, and renowned choreographer brenda way, female firefighters in los angeles are speaking up, saying they've been stuck in ill fitting gear their entire careers. >> the county fire department employs 82 women, but their

uniforms are only made for men. firefighters took up their problem with the l.a. county board of supervisors today demonstrating their daily challenges. >> i don't want someone to have to wait an extra second while i hike my pants up so that i have more mobility, so i can climb in that window and go get them. i want them to wait the exact same number of seconds that they would wait. if there was a male firefighter on the outside, and chief rathburn says female firefighters have a higher injury rate, and that the gaps in their protective gear could let in carcinogens. >> the all women board, all women board approved the motion to help out these firefighters. they are sending a letter to manufacturers asking for uniforms designed for women in computer science could soon be a required part of the curriculum for all california students. today assembly member marc berman from menlo park introduced a bill to make every public high school offer at least one computer science class. berman says it's key to helping students succeed in the 21st century workforce. one high schooler from modesto says this type of class has helped expand

her knowledge of things like web design, engineering and artificial intelligence. >> i'm also currently participate in two internships designing a children's book and being a part of an awesome team that creates graphic designs for small businesses within the community. >> if the bill passes computer science would become a high school graduation requirement across california by the 2030 31 school year. >> all right, let's go back and talk about the weather. we had this much needed break. still a lot of power outages out there, but more rain is coming. yeah. >> let's get to meteorologist andy patel for what's heading this way. sandhya >> yeah. and dan and let's talk about more rain coming our way. but nothing like that bomb cyclone that we experienced over the weekend. we're not expecting wind gusts of over 100 miles an hour, but certainly will be breezy to gusty. let's talk about your rain percent of normal. all the recent storms have added up. everybody except for oakland. above average. san jose really stands out over ten inches of rain and 142% of

average san francisco 121. santa rosa 120 and oakland 89. statewide the sierra snowpack was only half of average last week. now you are at 75% of average, so it's definitely good to see this. this was from our zephyr cove camera tonight. earlier tonight they have snow still coming down, but it's not quite as intense as it has been. some areas picked up up to 15in of snow in the last 24 hours, and the snow showers will pick up once again tomorrow. we'll talk about that in just a moment. southern california has just been getting inundated with this atmospheric river the last couple of days. mudslides, debris flows, numerous reports of damage across the region. they had not only daily rainfall records, but two day records. i mean, it was a historic storm even some tornado warnings in the central valley, parts of southern california. so here are the number of reports over the last 72 hours. up and down the state. we had debris flows, flash flooding, wind damage. obviously we experienced that

wind damage here with over 100 mile an hour wind gusts in marin county over the weekend on live doppler seven. we do have some clouds, but that will change tomorrow morning. 40s and 50s on your temperatures. a live view from our kgo roof camera. rain spreads. it's going to be breezy to gusty tomorrow. thursday isolated showers continuing and friday through early next week. dry and milder weather. finally for us to dry out tomorrow is a level one. rain will be moderate at times, gusty winds, large swells possible 8-80 of snow over our peaks. we do have a coastal flood advisory. the next few mornings until 10 a.m. saturday. due to high tides. watch out for minor low lying flooding as we go hour by hour and time out. this system. tomorrow morning, a few showers at 9 a.m. rainfall intensity begins to pick up. it will be moderate at times, briefly heavy at 10 a.m, and it is more widespread. 11 a.m. you are seeing some downpours with some snow showers, possibly showing up over mount hamilton in the early afternoon. maybe even the santa cruz mountains. so can'trillionule that out. the showers will continue wednesday,

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, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.

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.

helmet display at the fan experience. that includes a nod to the lunar new year. it is the year of the dragon, and the nfl has come up with dragon themed helmets for the 40 niners and the chiefs. the niners are on the left. the chiefs are on the right, and our abc seven news reporter, j.r. stone says they are quite the attraction and everyone who went by them stopped to take pictures. wow,

those are gorgeous. >> they are. they're pretty slick, actually. all right. everything is happening in las vegas. thousands of people are already there ready for this game on sunday. and sports director larry beil is there as well. >> hey, larry, how are you doing? >> those helmets look fantastic, didn't they? that was that was awesome. yeah, the 40 niners. they're obviously thrilled that they discovered brock purdy. you might be surprised to hear who else is singing purdy praises as we count down to super bowl 58. that's next. in sports

politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter. porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message. is it possible to count on my internet like my customers count on me? it is with comcast business. keeping you up and running with 99.9% network reliability. and security that helps outsmart threats to your data. moaire dida twoo?

your data, too. there's even round-the- clock customer support. so you can be there for your customers. hey billy, how you doin? with comcast business, reliability isn't just possible. thanks. it's happening. get started for $49.99 a month. plus, ask how to get up to a $1000 prepaid card with a qualifying internet package. don't wait, call and switch today! you want to see who we are as americans? i'm peter dixon and in kenya... we built a hospital that provides maternal care. as a marine... we fought against the taliban and their crimes against women. and in hillary clinton's state department... we took on gender-based violence in the congo. now extremists are banning abortion and contraception right here at home. so, i'm running for congress to help stop them. for your family... and mine. i approved this message because this is who we are.

are live from las vegas, mandalay bay, the media center as we count down to super bowl 58. the 40 niners. they love brock purdy, but the chiefs are actually also really impressed with the young quarterback for the 40 niners. now when you look at patrick mahomes he's led the chiefs to the super bowl in three of the past four years. but this is brand new territory for brock purdy. the chiefs know what a great quarterback looks like. they're impressed by brock purdy. >> how can you not cheer for that man. and he's the way he's done it. you know the naysayers how he's been able to fight

through everybody saying what type of quarterback he is. um, you can't help but the roof of the guy. um, i'm going to bite my teeth during the game. but, i mean, you can definitely cheer for him, but, um, i'll be rooting against him on sunday. he makes a lot of flashy plays. >> he makes all the right plays. um, and he's very even keeled. he doesn't get too high. too low. and that's what you want to do at the quarterback position? um, he finds a way to win football games. and that's what you have to do in this league. i'm looking at it as such a great opportunity and an honor, and i want to do everything i can in my preparation to be ready for the moment and, and to win it. >> the mayor of las vegas loves the super bowl here, but has no interest in the a's. moving to sin city, carolyn goodman says she just doesn't think the a's are a good fit in vegas, and they should stay in oakland. not surprisingly, oakland mayor shengtao told abc seven news she agrees with that statement. 100% warriors had the night off in philly tomorrow. klay thompson was benched in the fourth quarter last night against the nets. did not play the final

seven minutes. scored only eight points on the night. struggling with a reality. he's not the player he used to be. oh yeah, kid me go from you know, one of the best players. >> it's hard for anybody you know. yeah i'll be honest with you i'm happy for these young guys to see. and, uh, yeah, we won. and it's hard to get wins in this league. >> college hoops. randy bennett's wife, darlene wants her husband to play better defense against pacific. and apparently they listened. saint mary's alex ducas led all scorers with 18. the gaels cruise 8443 to stay unbeaten in conference play. abc seven sports sponsored by river rock casino live from vegas and we'll be

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.

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, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message. right now on jimmy kimmel. ewan mcgregor, gina rodriguez and ziggy marley. have a great previously on "jimmy kimmel live" -- >> hey! >> lou: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live!"
