per hour. sustained winds with gusts upwards of 20 miles per hour or less. that trend going to continue for the 2nd half of your weekend as well. future wind gusts, though, on monday as that weak storm passes, going to be more of a wind maker. and here's why we're going to track winds along the coast, north bay and east bay valleys, gusting as high as 45 miles per hour or less. so far, the national weather service holding back on issuing any wind advisories. and if we do see the gusty east winds, they're mainly going to be in the highest peaks in the north bay mountains and east bay hills, but also fairly gusty for those of you in half moon bay, right along the san francisco peninsula coastline. so just a heads up there. radar for though, from now tracking very dry, clear conditions. temperatures for the most part, widespread 40's and 50's right now. we are tracking 53 degrees for san jose about 10 degrees warmer than napa in the mid 40's out there right now at 44 degrees and overnight lows. subfreezing temperatures for those of you in santa rosa. so bundle up

there. 33 degrees, but 10 degrees warmer for downtown san francisco. cooling down into the mid 40's. but seasonable weather upper 50's to low 60's for downtown san francisco and oakland. a few degrees above average for san jose and santa rosa warming up into the mid 60's for the 2nd half of the weekend. cooling trend through midweek. but a lot of sunshine out there. so going to remain dry as we end january and start february. back to you. jonathan. >> thank you. tonight, a 29 year-old woman is dead after chp says that she fell out of a party bus that she was a passenger in and he was hit by a car. it happened early this morning on highway one. 0, one in los angeles. so far the woman's name has not been released and it's unknown how she fell out of that party bus. investigators trying to figure out of drugs or alcohol were involved in the incident ahead of this year's super bowl. several groups in southern california are now raising awareness about the dangers of human trafficking for 13 years. the national nonprofit in our backyard has

pandemic now forcing some members of the national guard into a new assignment. the classroom as schools struggle with staffing shortages. it's part of a new effort to keep kids in class instead of learning remotely madison. all worth has the details. >> with staff shortages persisting in classrooms, volunteers and even the national guard are being asked to step in to fill in for teachers, disruptions to learning like this are definitely not good. it keeps the classroom open. but at what cost president biden is touting how 95% of public schools are now fully open. but many are relying on those volunteers and under qualified substitutes in new mexico. the governor is calling on the national guard to volunteer to become licensed substitute teachers as schools struggle to stay open since winter break. approximately 60 school districts and charter schools have needed to move to temporary remote learning because of staff shortages in hamburg central school district in new york. staff has worked hard to hit their

goal of keeping schools open all 100, 80 days to do so. administrators have filled in for principles. retired teachers are being paid to work on a day-to-day basis and college seniors that are studying education have been hired as substitutes. all of this to keep schools open. but the stopgap measures are not problem. free. >> we have teachers in the classroom for multiple reasons. first of all, because the subject matter experts so having individuals and in the classroom who have other duties, responsibilities outside of working with you know, during the some of the difficult times, it says it doesn't help learning. >> these efforts are preventing kids from being forced into virtual learning. so while the measures are not perfect, it is doing an important job. the effects of virtual and disrupt and learning are still being understood. take a look at this for the first time in nearly 2 decades, graduation rates dropped in at least 20
