>> from the area's local news station, you're watching the kron. 4 morning news at 7. >> happy monday to you. i'm darya and i'm james on this monday morning. we're waking up on the what 16th of january halfway through the month. and luckily just about all the way through the rain that we're going to have we can see the end. and when is it coming, finally kind of a sigh relief moment. we're looking at already be end in sight for some areas. look at this. the a bay bridge right here, a little bit breezy, but no longer raining right there. we saw the heaviest of rainfall last night. >> through early morning hours and that's gradually shifting its way out of the region. so we're already looking at drying conditions going on where we're sitting right now on satellite and radar. you can see a couple lingering sprinkles right along the coastline up into the santa cruz mountains and the definitely some snowfall there down into the mountains above san jose. that is quite a sight to see this colder

system resulting in some of the inland snow. really the only spots will be on the widespread rain is out east of antioch now out towards brentwood, tracing the altamonte pass. still a little bit wet there. we zoom out. you can see where the heaviest rain has shifted and now it's transitioning to snow fall. heavy snowfall up in the sierra nevada. so great to be seeing some snow pack today. wouldn't be a day to be heading into this year because of the stormy conditions there. but it is gradually becoming a better and better day to step outside here in the bay area. we'll clear out nicely later on this morning. and some nice peeks of sunshine into the afternoon should remain dry from this point forward for the rest of the day. now, just because we're dry doesn't mean the flooding risk is completely gone. all that heavy rain last night still flowing into our small stream. so flood watches continue through midnight. watch for some wet spots on roads, breezy us at the coast and in the north, a little calmer along the bay shore and temperatures are gradually lifting. now we're in the 40's for most areas, although alameda and nevado each right

at 50 degrees. i'm talking more about if we do have any rain chances after this. still to come in your forecast rain. all right, john, thank you for that. a few issues in the south bay, if you are there. >> southbound 6.80, south of mission boulevard in fremont. >> another traffic hazard northbound 8.80. that's north of dixon landing road in milpitas a little further down northbound 87 south of almaden expressway. so you've got several little pockets of issues. but if you're traveling along one, a one and 2.80, no major issues there. so that's really good and into the city. slick conditions across the bay bridge. 8 minutes now. bart slowing trains down there. so add an extra 20 minutes to your commute. if you're hopping on bart. 13 minutes high winds across our san mateo bridge, slow it need to speed. richmond, sandra fell bridge put us at about 8 minutes tolls to 101, and the golden gate bridge. 37 to the tolls. 20 minutes on this monday morning. darya. james, back to you. thank you. reena and in the north bay, part of highway

37 is still closed this morning after all the rain. that guy you can imagine, that's a major artery for some commuters. so this is going to be a pain for the helm. >> for a little while, caltrans has ruled no estimate on when it's going to reopen. kron four's will tran is live in nevada with the latest. good morning. well, >> good morning, james and area. it is not raining. it has not raining in about a 3 to 4 hours from now. you can clearly see my jacket is dry, but the damage already done with a wink and a nod to john shrable in all the meteorologists. let me show you what's going bend my knee just like the weather people have to do in the show you the frontal system. there's a frontal system of cars getting off a 37 and it is coming here shore and you can see all of those headlights. those are cars being taken off of westbound. 37 at atherton because of flooding. and no, there's no major flooding at this time. but quite dangerous because of this. let me show

you some video of what happened this weekend in it. re hard this morning. well, highway 37, if you're a veteran of the bay area and this commute, you know that it's a little bit lower than the sea level and all that rainfall and all that runoff. >> cause water to spill and both directions of highway. 37. so caltrans and chp, they rushed out to the scene over the weekend. >> chp, they're actually monitoring the situation still month, chp, they shut down. 37 allowing caltrans the take out their palms and get that water off of the roadway. no timetable on when they will reopen and this is obviously a holiday and you can see how heavy it is right now. can you imagine how bad it is come tomorrow, which is why they're hoping to reopen it. but no timetable yet. let me step out of the way. it's not just skies the westbound direction, eastbound right when they have to go say from novato 2.37. to

get to the late. whoa. that's backed up as well. they have to meander through here and then reconnect to 37 right over there. so lots going on. beautiful morning. not so beautiful on the runway. rob skews me on the freeway and john sabol. i hope i've made you proud. >> it will stick to or will stick to our structure do all the weather. wall illustration. thank his 705, in the east bay. we're also dealing with now is canyon road, which is still off limits to drivers. you can see the video here, cruiser dealing with mudslides, rockslides kron four's philippe djegal actually gives us a closer look. >> saturated hillsides causing hazards on roadways. this landslide along foothill road in blocking one lane. >> in town on main street turnbull and his wife, renee cleaning up where they can. we want to make sure that in the

next when the next rains come that the water will flow off of main street and not turnbull says his town may be small, but family struggle here during inclement weather. he hopes elected leaders provide resources for those incurring damage. we've got people with flooded basements. we're going to need help from pleasanton sunol road in some old through old canyon road in fremont. niles canyon road is shut down indefinitely. >> caltrans crews are busy clearing catch basins. so water flows freely into alameda creek. the agency says it will reassess the road conditions over the next few days. stay away from it. >> because weather like this year, a predictable floods can come on top. you did before and you hit you've got tree branches logs, whatever. here's a good chance that whatever is rushing down, the creek could make it on the road. if you live in the area and have no other choice but to use the road to commute passed by carefully. if you underestimate the depth of flood waters, you could get

stuffed in alameda county, philippe djegal kron. 4 >> and in san mateo highway, 92 there near half moon bay is partially reopen. >> but the sill a sinkhole still that problem and open up on thursday in the westbound direction. they don't know when they're going to the westbound direction. open, but at least they open the other side. they got a lot of work to do because looks like a big hot tub to make. >> a woman has died. she was jogging in golden gate park in san francisco on a tree fell on her. it was about 5 in the evening saturday near 30th avenue and jfk boulevard in golden gate park. this woman in her 7 were about 70 years old and she was jogging. they found her with head trauma next to a big tree branch and firefighters tried to save or but she was pronounced dead at the scene. well, we have an investigation under way now after a body was discovered in the waters right near the santa school ferry building. >> sfpd and san francisco fire got the call at about 10 o'clock saturday morning.

on the peninsula. officers arrested a man in an atm skimming sting operation at a bank of america over the weekend. take a look. it's this atm in belmont where police say a technician alerted them that they found a skimming device on the atm. so officers ran surveillance and they ended up arresting 29 year-old nicholas day they say that he return to the atm to pick up the skimming device when they caught him. police advise you to double checked the atm before you use it. >> we will take a break here on the kron. 4 morning news that still ahead, republicans on capitol hill are demanding more answers as to why classified documents were found at president joe biden's home and office. we'll tell you what investigators are looking into right now. plus, cities across the nation are observing days of service in celebration of martin luther king junior day. we'll tell you how days like this are a big help. now, the nonprofits and a big boost to the economy and rainfall is moving out gradually. we're drying out pretty nicely at the barrier at this point.

>> some 14 and i can't wait to try out. and i was can't even believe that is happening

today or tie know. we've been waiting so long for at least a nice little stretch of no rain i'm happy with whatever we get. as long as it's just not raining for right now, after weeks and weeks and weeks, it's so nice out there. this week's forecast looking dryer than not this morning. we are seeing quickly drying conditions last night. it was heavy, heavy rainfall across the bay area. so still watch for some slick spots out there. but compared to where we have been, this is a dream to look at a little breezy at the birds out there, enjoying the strike skies, the lingering cloues exiting the region. you can see a few lingering showers up in the santa cruz mountains. some snow showers lingering in the mountains above san jose. and then rainfall pushing out into the central valley and combining with some heavy rain to heavy snow up in the sierra nevada. going to be a rough day to head to the sea air today. they're seeing some very heavy snow out that way. but here in the bay area feel free to step outside and enjoy increasingly clear skies into the afternoon. look at this. a dry day ahead of us. as i

mentioned, still stays pretty wet to our east. so if you do want to head up that way, be mindful of those closures and chain controls. but the bay area, it's an easy going day. we do have flood watches remaining through midnight tonight. may not be seeing any rainfall but all that water from yesterday still running off into our small streams. so flooding risk still a concern over the next few hours. we do have high wind advisories in effect and then also winter storm warnings. these actually last through tomorrow at 10:00am your winter storm warnings in the sierra as we are going to continue to see snow up there through the day. well, the bay area only quieting things down in the 50's for your highs today and skies growing increasingly clear tomorrow. another nice and dry one really the only chance of rain we have ahead of us is a chance of showers. late wednesday. aside from that sunshine, dry skies, especially thursday through sunday. all right, john, thank you for that. well, in accident westbound 24 east of fish ranch road that's under so.

>> we do have an accident. we had a much more of a congested area about 30 minutes ago. now looks like drive times are starting to even out a bit. and it's not as bad as it was. >> our other highways like 85, 80 or moving at the limit in the maze. >> and 5.80, also looking nice and live for you there. if you're traveling along 6.80, maybe 2 san ramon a creek. no major issues there. a little further down in the souhh bay. so southbound 6.80, south of mission boulevard and then you have a traffic hazard. northbound 8.80, north of dixon landing. now, that's pretty much the only issue that i'm seeing right there across highways because you're moving along 101, 2.80, no major issues here to 37. it's pretty much moving up the limit and no major issues along 17. our bay bridge now at 9 minutes. so remember, it's a holiday soul, not a lot of people out there on our roadways. but if you're catching bark, just know they have a 20 minute systemwide delay over there 80 to 1, 0, and you've got those high winds moving back and forth.

13 minutes making their way across towards the peninsula. 1, 0, 1, 30 minutes. 85 up towards menlo park. and if you are going to take 8.80, milpitas dour up towards say lee and it's going to take you 30 minutes to make that drive because of that slight delay that told you about darya. james, back to you. thanks. a lot of let's get to national news now. republicans say that they and the public want more answers about why president biden had classified documents. >> it is private home in delaware and his former office in dc and they're also questioning why. >> the current president is being treated differently than the former president when it comes to investigations. we have washington correspondent alexandra limon with the latest. >> good morning. republicans now want the visitor logs to president biden's delaware home. they say that in order to try to find out who may have had access to those classified documents. >> the investigation into whether president joe biden mishandled classified documents is growing. i want to who knew who knew what and

when we're sources and methods compromise. the hypocrisy here is great. we're very concerned about a lack of republican lawmakers are upset in part because the first discovery of classified documents happened before the midterm elections. but we don't know yet whether they broke the law or not. i will accuse the biden administration of not being transparent. >> why didn't we hear about this on november second and republicans say the situation is being handled very differently than when it was discovered. former president trump had classified documents at mar-a-lago and the fbi conducted a raid. democrats a part of the reason the situation is being handled differently is because president biden and his team are handling it differently than trump who didn't willingly hand over the classified material to the president and his administration are cooperating. >> and they should continue to cooperate. nobody is above the law. president biden said he instructed his team to conduct a search after the first

classified document was found. >> and that's when more documents were discovered in delaware. it's an embarrassment. no doubt about it. is there more to it? >> i doubt it, but we'll find out from the special counsel. >> that special counsel was appointed by the justice department last week to investigate whether those classified documents were mishandled in washington. alexandra limon. >> inflation and money worries may be a good reason to get your taxes done quickly. here are some steps to get your refund back as quick as possible. first we make sure you file electronically request refunds to be sent directly to direct deposit. that could save you 10 days right there. and then review your returns to make sure you don't have any i think in there that might set off an irs red flag and trigger an audit that worst-case scenario, if you claim and earned income or child tax credit, your refunds may not come until mid february. just one thing to consider the martin luther king junior holiday is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to

encourage all americans to volunteer. >> jane king reports on how volunteerism can have economic benefits. >> the nonprofit sector touches millions of people through employment, volunteer opportunities and providing services in effect. many would say volunteers are priceless, but some researchers have tried to put a number on the impact of volunteers on the economy. the 2013 report by economists at columbia university found that every dollar invested in national service, almost $4 is returned to society and higher earnings, increased output. another community-wide benefits every year. independent sector calculates the average value of one volunteer hour and then publishes a report on that this year. the national average is above $30 an hour for volunteer service. now, according to the u.s. department of labor, there were nearly 12.3 million nonprofit jobs. that is 10% of private employment. the nonprofit sector contributed about 906 billion dollars to the u.s. economy and assets

greater than 5 trillion. now those numbers are expected to grow. according to the urban institute, of course, volunteering his benefits far beyond economics. it's been shown to improve people's mental and physical health, social connections and positive feelings about their communities from the nasdaq market site. i'm jane king. >> it's 7.22. and coming up on the kron 4 morning news, california is getting a little more rain this the state is seeing and no to all of these storms will take a look at the damage and what's next after the break.

on saturday reached 4 inches per hour. at one point that so heavy it was coming down. that's nice. it's light right now. the still pretty steady. shadix takes a closer look. >> the roads leading up to the snow are slick. and here on i-80 at dry creek road. the driver of this accident found out just how dangerous they can be too. >> a lot of then since we respond to on this interstate and speed and a wet roadway conditions. fortunately, the driver and passenger in this red pickup weren't seriously hurt. >> snow began falling around the alta area. sprinkling on the big pine trees and gathering on the sides of the road. >> it's been relentless. doesn't want to >> drivers got prepared by pulling off to the side of the road leading up to chain control to put their own chains on. chain installer.

week. we know that there are chain requirements still in effect right now. roads are extremely dangerous in spots. you just got to be really careful as we saw the live shots are still trying to plow out a lot of these roads. you can't make out any of the line. so if our rain is ending as they're snow ending to around the same time, there's is going to stay with us all day long today. so if you thought, hey, bay area's drying out, it's also going to be a good day to get into the sierra. >> maybe wait until tomorrow to get up there because it's still coming down. really heavy up there. this is where we're at diamond peak right now. sure. they got some of the deck shoveled off, but you can see new snow falling and it's actually picking up for a lot of our neighbors up in the sierra. we are under winter storm warning until 10:00am tomorrow up. there. very strong winds and some really heavy snowfall. that's great for the slopes. but it's bad for travels. so maybe just way into tomorrow because look at what happens tomorrow. we get sunshine, partly cloudy skies. good chance to enjoy that fresh snow pack. another storm on wednesday will leave us with some additional snowfall. but then thursday, onward into the weekend. crystal clear.

you're smooth sailing. bay area's definitely quieted down. there's just a few showers in the santa cruz mountains. look at all that snow still falling all across the sierra and pretty heavy at times, especially along highway 50 is you're trying to get up there. future cast for the bay. just the opposite. we're pretty much done with it. now. nice clear skies come the afternoon. a few passing clouds here and there. but a really beautiful day to get back outside. enjoy some time out there and definitely continue that into tomorrow as tuesday will bring more of those clear skies. wednesday does come along with our last chance of rain in the forecast. and that's mostly during the evening. flood watches continue through midnight may not be raining anymore, but all that heavy rain we saw yesterday and last night still running off into our small stream. so we are looking at flooding risk continue because of that wind advisories in effect as well. temps today will be in the 50's. we're starting the morning right now in the 40's. so this is definitely a bump in temps from where we're at currently. as i mentioned, we clear out the rest of the day tomorrow, a beautiful and dry

one wednesday comes along with evening showers and then you're smooth sailing thursday through sunday. all right, john, thanks for that. let's get a check of your traffic on this holiday monday. >> 30 minutes traveling along, won a one up from 85 into miller park this morning. 2.80, also nice and light traffic's moving at the limit. there heading into the city. 8 minutes, mace to that fremont street exit a 20 minute systemwide bar delay because of the wet conditions. they slowed it down there. so i don't have any accidents. 80 to 1, 0, 1, 13 minutes traveling across towards the peninsula. well, if you're taking a heading from milpitas up towards san leandro, right dixon landing. there is a disabled vehicle in milpitas. so that's why drive times are a little sluggish and cause a slight delay. 31 minutes heading up there. if you're traveling along 6.80, this morning through seminole, not seeing major issues and one 16 to congress to 40 to about 15 minutes to make that drive. and 5, 18, 80 crockett down towards the maze about 16
