into the early hours on sunday, and then there's a break, there was a window of time while people are sleeping where it doesn't rain but if you skip ahead and use the long-range model, right about sunrise, showers will start to come back. on-again off-again, 8 to them. but watch them increase in number as we go through saturday afternoon. and by saturday evening, you will see a little bit of a complex show up, where we can see some great downpours. so, you will get brace of blue sky, it will be more time on saturday where you will not get rained on then when you are. but the possibility for one of these to come in the form of a brief thunderstorm with a downpour and some small hail, that is the reason we have a first alert status designation on this. for some for and sunday, it will give going on sunday. i will show you more on sunday coming up in the complete first alert forecast and by monday we will be done. in the meantime a quick look at the other side of the state, several were thinking we had people heading

into summer, not even close now, this storm is significant, we will get two feet of new snow. with a snow level down as far as 4000 feet, you can count on one hand the number of storms in the entire winter so far, that have been able to drop snow that low, that last blizzard really did a number and was able to do it. but not many other storms could. so this is a really good winter storm, and when you look at the winter storm warning, it goes until sunday, i will leave you with this thought, as good as the storm looks, next week, there are two more coming potentially. which could be as or even maybe more depressing than this one, i will explain why we say this that far out, we will look at it in a bit. back to you, sarah. and understatement to say that it has been a tumultuous year , and, inside of the police department, it was more than a year ago now, that newly minted mayor, dave homegrown chief, the boot over his handling of the misconduct case, and he thought for quite a while to get his job back, the police commission even put

them up as an official candidate, and she was having none of it. and if you have questions about her final pick , we dedicate to ask any, should put out a video message, announcing floyd mitchell adds and he ran the texas police department for 2019 through 2023, and below and he had a temple police and worked at the kansas city police department for 25 years, we asked everyone from regular residents to community leaders, what they thought of the choice. reaction was mixed. >> i'm glad this time it is an outsider. previously, i would've said like most people, let's pick somebody homegrown, but it is showing that it is really tough, to be a chief of the people that you were comrades with for so long. >> not knowing the city or the culture or the community, not knowing the politicians either. i mean, this guy is really in for a big shock. >> at this point, all we can do is be optimistic. >> the chief will meet with

the press to answer questions, he will spend his first days meeting with community members before revealing is planned to fight crime in oakland. the san jose police department has been in the search for a new top cop, the city elevated assistant chief paul joseph to interim chief, when chief anthony mata steps down at the end of the month. all right, everybody is talking about the madness of march, and of course, saint mary's went dancing tonight in enemy territory in spokane, that is where their fiercest arrival, guns i got lays but it was the antelopes of grand canyon that stomped on their toes and pushed them off the court. before this tournament a lot of people haven't even heard of this team. but fans may never forget them. >> you would be right, grand canyon university, not necessarily the most well-known program, they don't even play in the grand canyon, kind of a dumb name. but the antelopes have been successful. they came ready to play and on friday

night, trying to win a first round game, for a third straight season. tcu fans traveled so well, from phoenix into spokane, it was a low-scoring first half. over to mitchell saxon, and saxon scored in the first half but the antelopes came on fire, and off-again brown, tyson grant, foster throws down the alley-oop, and tcu up 46-34. saint mary's down by 11, the layout blocked and on the other hand, duke brennan for the dog, the antelopes up by 13, the gaels rally, a transaction three, they cut it to 5, they are excited, come on, 64-58, four minutes left, harrison hits the tough jumper, that pushes the lead to it, that's good, 12 seeded grand canyon is on the upset, saint mary's, 75-66, their first ever tournament wednesday for tcu, the gaels knocked out for the

first time since 2019. >> i'm proud of this team, what a great season. i'm proud of these kids, hanging together and accomplishing what they did. i don't think we played very well tonight, but it doesn't diminish what they have done for the overall year, so grand canyon, it is a good program. they played well enough to win, so we did not. >> with the loss, the drought continues, the gaels have not advanced past the second round. since the 2010 tournament when they made the sweet 16. a great season, great conference play, they fall short in march, that is what the tournament is. >> there have been a lot of heartbroken fans from a lot of different schools. and some very happy ones. that is the name of the game. andrea

nakano was out, and if they awarded points for enthusiasm, saint mary's might have pulled this off. >> reporter: these fans have been into the game from the start, they were hoping that the gaels would go on a big run, to turn this game around. but the team struggled, especially in the second half. it was loud and lively, at dryden hall, for almost the entire night, every point, rebound and steel, had fans upon their feet, and, the senior made sure that she was dressed for the occasion. >> i got the shirt at one of the games, and it was really big on me, so i turned it into address and then i made this hat. >> reporter: while most were clapping and chanting, mia, who is minoring in dance, has a special celebration move. >> i just like to fist bump in the air, and do a little cowgirl move. and it goes well with the hat. >> reporter: others, using the traditional saint mary's way to lead the gaels to a win.

44 cable 12. night and then on sunday, we still have the storm prediction center actually putting more of a focus down in southern california for the isolated thunderstorms but there are still stragglers here, which is why sunday is still a day to be aware of. and, for an isolated thunderstorms, that covers the rain aspect of this, and on the other side of the state, in the sierra, this is a significant winter storm, we looked at it in one way at the top of the newscast but just another way to visualize the winter storm severity index. and you can start it to areas of red, that is where the weather prediction center is calling is major in terms of the impact from this, so not looking at snowfall here, this is just a combination of all of the potential impacts, that the storm can have from today through sunday in the sierra, going right through a patch of red as does highway 50,

hazardous driving should be expected in that kind of scenario and there could even be temporary road closures and of course, if that doesn't paint a picture well enough all you have to do is look at how much snow is going to be following up there, two feet and up but and a half. and what is really as odd as it's going to sound, really nice to see, the snow levels getting down to 4000 feet with this one, and it has been so rare for much of the winter, it is really good to see that. just because it is nice to see winter storms be able to do what they used to, so often do. and now so rarely do, which is give the snow level down to about 4000 feet, we have a winter storm warning going until about 8:00 a.m. all right that covers this particular storm, one thing i want to do is get you ready for a different aspect of tomorrow's weather. and it is a cold front that cancer tumor and that is going to do exactly what it would have you believe, and we are going to experience temperatures tomorrow, that will be 10 degrees cooler, than they were for today, and certainly for the last few days, we have been doing low

70s, and for the last four days, and only going to the low 60s down there. everybody is in the low 60s tomorrow, so going to feel cooler, and we will have some cool breezes to go along with all of this, which means, it is going to feel cooler than the low 60s, and just to show you what comes next. two potential storms here, and the first one shows up by next wednesday and there's another one potentially by next friday. and we are going to go to deep into these but i think it's important to start looking at this now because this particular long-range model has been good with the long-range stuff on the winter. and the idea of the second half of next week , we are going to stay in an active pattern, so look at the wednesday, thursday and friday, i think we should brush all three of these, even if right now it does look like there's a little bit of a target on wednesday and friday. the timing can shift on that, so sara, it will be interesting, next week. back to you.
