within city limits. >> according to the mayor, a state tobacco survey found 92% of students using tobacco reported using a flavored product during the meeting. staff also reported nearly 9 out of every 10 adult smokers, try smoking by the age of 18. here's what the city mayor had to say. >> this is absolutely a gateway into using using tobacco and we hear about flavored vapes like bubble gum and watermelon blue raz. these are not meant to weed off of tobacco. these are meant to start children into smoking and vaping. and this is something that we looked at with with the the result of her found. we just have to do something to protect our youths. >> now in 2019 contra, costa county enacted its own ban to not allow the sale of flavored vaping products and electronic devices that ordinance only covers the county's unincorporated areas. walnut

creek span is more restrictive than federal and state laws. however, there are exceptions for adults. only >> at tobacco business is now. like i said, this was unanimously passed. it happened last night. however, the ban goes into effect 5 months. and this will give businesses time to understand and comply with the new rules james, back to you. all right. thanks a lot of camilla. >> 79 is the time and in the east bay, there's another measure to protect children. this one from guns. the city of pleasanton approves an ordinance requiring gun owners to keep their guns in a locked container or keep a trigger lock on them. the goal to keep kids from getting their hands on guns. according to one study one-half of gun owners don't lock up their guns and another report showed that there were more than a 350 unintentional shootings by children in 2020 other bay area. cities have already enacted similar ordinances including palo alto and san jose.

>> 7.14 right now. and i'm kind of excited about the little break we get today with sunshine. yeah. effort for the entire day. as a matter of fact, the next rain, i think john was saying doesn't arrive to left to go to bed. so that's good news for you. you can hit the honey. do list still stuff to do surely it couldn't and so many cup stop coming out what he had to do.

going to be a dry and our warmest of the forecast tonight, we will see that brief resurgence of rainfall. it scoots in quickly and pushes out really quickly, too. most of the north bay is going to see the most significant of the rainfall you head south of the golden gate and a little less substantial of totals. you can see that most areas may not even see a 10th of an inch of rainfall, especially the south bay in the inland east bay north of the golden gate though, sandra fell as well as santa rosa each achieving around a quarter of an inch of rain. so a brief round of it. nothing like what we're about to see into the start of next week which is going to offer up much greater totals. as for today it is a nice one. 60's 70's for daytime highs. really good day to be stepping outside especially considering that the numbers you're seeing in your 4 zone forecast today are going to be much warmer than any day ahead of us is after this. so if you like the warmth, if you like the 70's, especially today is one to savor. get out there. do the extra long dog walk whatever you want to do to enjoy it. maybe it is taking care of that. honey, do list before

things do get a little cooler. not too bad, but cooler for the rest of the forecast after 70's today. it's either 60's or 50's for daytime highs morning. showers before the sun comes up tomorrow and the rest of your thursday looks really good as well. friday and saturday, too. don't forget to adjust those clocks back an hour as 02:00am sunday morning, we will be falling back monday and tuesday of next week. we see another atmospheric river likely to be taking shape across the taking shape across the region. that i result in some widespread heavier rainfall will pack the punch that are last one did. it's not looking likely, but this is going to be a good rain just around the corner. reyna great john, as we definitely do need water out there. so we do have a hot spot. this is in milpitas. >> southbound 8.80 right here at 2.37 west. so you are starting to see delays. it's a hot spot because at least 2 lanes are currently blocked there. a good alternate would be right adjacent to that. topple ron 6.80, and the south bay san jose got another accident southbound to a 17

south just south of that there looks like they've been able clear this accident off of the highway in the past 3 minutes. so that's some good news heading into the city right now we have a traffic as are 80 westbound on the bridge there. so we are seeing drive times go up a little under 28 minutes as you're heading into the city and we're starting to slow down along the san mateo bridge llc accidents are hazards. but i do see some slowing along one. oh, one. so that could be what's stopping traffic and slowing things down about 17 minutes heading across towards the peninsula and almost 50 minutes for you here. if you're traveling one, 16 antioch towards conquer to 42 dorian james, back to you. thank you. ray. 7.18 and for your money. small turkeys could be hard to find this have, of course, others and where san francisco rank for spending for the holidays. jane king is live at nasdaq with those stories and more. but that the hands were important. kids are tiny. >> well, everybody has their own cornish

and nearly 400 jobs will be slashed. the union representing teachers and staff believes that there are other places the district could cut from first before impacting students and teachers talking about for men. >> from levels of administration and management. that may be are directly impacting students at this moment, perhaps special projects that can be paused until such a time as grants can be found to us and that cuts to schools or schools having to make the decisions around which position to cut only exacerbates the trauma that we've been through. >> yeah. the state of california has offered 3 a 30 million dollars in grants to try and help offset the district over the next 6 weeks. there will be public hearings on the matter. so you'll have a chance to voice your concerns. a final plan has to be submitted to the state, though, by december 15th. >> it's 7.21, and there's a new effort to make high traffic areas in san francisco. safer. these ambassadors that you see here all dressed like they're going

>> sideshows their illegal. you think the cops would come to this one. that was a halloween night in san jose just right across from city hall and 2 blocks but the cops didn't show they didn't hand. obviously this isn't the first time we've seen sideshows

break out in san jose. a neighbor that we spoke with said that this illegal event went on for hours and hours and they became concerned. >> when they at no point saw police show up. so we talked to the police department about it may tell us they just didn't have enough officers. >> it was a very busy saturday night. we can't send 2 police cars to deal with the sideshow of this size here you have something the cops didn't show up. >> legitimately they're understaffed for a city of a million people that 800 cups is crazy. you know, going 60 miles an hour down a residential block with people standing on both walk mourners. >> they're lucky that something didn't happen. >> amazing that they said we cannot send 2 police cars to center they didn't send any. now, obviously that's not sitting well with community members but the police were worried. they said, you know, events like this, they don't know if they're going to be people that are armed. they don't know what kind of situation they're sending officers into. so. >> they're erring on the side of but not safe not safe. now, will.
