spots. and san francisco, some spots along the bay as well as out into the delta to most of us are fog free. just looking at a little gray overhead with mostly cloudy skies to start and a partly cloudy afternoon ahead of us. current temperatures are anywhere from the 30's to 40's. it's a chilly morning. santa rosa. you're at 35 degrees. so definitely bundle up. as you venture out there, reyna somewhere up there he's on the 3rd hello, everyone. as hoping that you have a really safe commute on your way to work on this monday. we're starting off. >> great this morning. however, we do have a couple of things to tell you about. we have new accident that just popped up. this is down in los northbound 17 just south of santa cruz avenue. so we are seeing delays there as you're traveling now in the last hour, we have an accident on the bay bridge. good news is they were able to quickly clear that off of the bridge. so traffic only went up about a minute or 2. you're still at 10 minutes from the bay. so

that fremont street exit also here, southbound one. 0, one, 92 west. you have a traffic hazard there. so we're seeing just a slight delay as you're traveling across towards the peninsula. look at that 17 minutes via the san mateo bridge will have more on your monday morning commute. but daryn, james, i'll send it back down to you guys. all right. thanks a lot, right, 7, 0, one. and today, teachers and parents in oakland are going to hear more about possible school closures big news for them this morning. we do have a list of the schools. >> that potentially could be impacted. kron 4 sarah stinson joining us with the details on that. sarah. >> yeah, i mean, this is a huge decision to make to shut down 8 schools and merge for schools. i mean, they these are schools that have been in the community for such a long time. i'm sure this is jarring for the community of oakland to hear about this, but that's why it's being debated at tonight's special meeting with the school board. take a look.

we've got a list that they will be reviewing tonight. first, we'll show you the 8 schools on the chopping block on. fortunately can see them on your screen, including press god but parker grass valley. just to name a few. and then for schools would be merged. now the students from the close schools will be welcomed at other schools, a presentation, including a list that you just saw will be reviewed tonight claims there's also a slide in that presentation that claims a decline in enrollment and attendance is causing the school district to face a 12 million dollar deficit next school year into combat. this problem. the recommendation is to consolidate, but someone has been vocalizing against this very hard. that school board member mike hutchinson. he says the district is not in a financial crisis and that the district >> has already addressed this. he believes no schools should be cut or she explains this to us.

>> we're sitting on an ending fund balance of over 100 million dollars. so we have enough resources. there is no need to make any other adjustments. and so this idea that we need to for school closures this year to address next year's budget is just false. the school board are ready to address that. this wins. >> and so this will continue to be discussed at tonight's meeting. this starts at 6 o'clock. it's a special meeting with the school board and it is on zoom. i guess about 1000 people could attend in hutchinson wants as many people as we rally to get. he wants everyone to rally together. join the zoom meeting in and tell it. tell the board if you want the schools to stay open. now again, that meeting starts at 6, but this is just a discussion that will be voting on the school closures until february 8. for now, i'm sarah stinson reporting back to you. deiah james. all right. thanks

a lot, sarah. way over there, sir. >> everybody's see you soon. >> all right. let's talk more about covid shell, which is caused all this oakland's indoor mandate is going to change where, you know, you had to wear masks will now you have to have proof of vaccination to get to an indoor business that involves foods and any kind of restaurant bar entertainment venue. there's gyms, libraries. so these are all the places you have to have vaccine prove and then well, contra costa, brooklyn already had the san prancisco had something similar as well. and we've got more on san francisco throughout the show. >> because things are changing. so stay tuned. >> like big events, let's go to the big events in san francisco, specifically. >> if it's 500 people or more, for example, we're going to show you the chase center. you have to be vaccinated. and that includes a booster shot to co and and you have to be all vaccinated one week before the event. you're going to go to. there is an out if you take a negative covid test and

that has to be taken 24 hours, it's antigen or 48 hours for pcr. so if you have plans to go to big events, that's important to know. also in san francisco, if you're vaccinated, you can take off your mask. in some indoor places, places that have the controlled entrance is so to speak. they calm, stable settings like offices and gyms. so you'll be able to take off the mask. kron 4 were still wear a mask. by the way, in the newsroom. and in fact, most indoor mask mandates do stand throughout the city, james. so it's not just here. kron 4, a lot of businesses are being extra cautious. >> to where starting tomorrow, sonoma county is going to require school employees to show proof that they are also boosted against covid-19. the county's allowing workers to test twice a week if they haven't gotten that booster shot just yet the department public health already requires employees to be fully vaccinated. and that now includes a booster shot. the county says this new mandate is just an expansion of the

state's requirements that are already in place. well, looking ahead at the pandemic, doctors are urging people as best they can to stay vigilant against covid-19. we have a lot of large gatherings that are expected here in the near future. as we know, people are planning to get together for super bowl celebrations. that's coming up in a couple weeks. we're also looking at the start of the lunar new year. so celebrations in the streets of san francisco and elsewhere are going to be taking place and ucsf, infectious disease expert doctor peter chin-hong says that the festivities could very well impact our covid track record. he says there's still a lot of people dying because of the virus. and we need to be very careful. >> 2000 or more, and that's way too high to really think about an endemic phase. if those deaths go down. and we have a big pause and when covid very teary unsavory tense, predictably, that's really when we can think about, you know, having an endemic where about halfway down the mountain about peak but may not see level yet.

>> yeah. doctor peter chin-hong goes on to say that the best of advice is to gather outside because people can obviously space out. and then after you get together for a large gathering, he says you may want to just test yourself to make sure your covid free. just the personalities, how we fight for each other. the style that we played with the whole year. i mean, that's something that i'm very proud of as a coach football's highest highs and lowest lows. and sometimes kicking about. obviously it that we. >> season has to now. >> you know, we will be back next year. >> i kind of like okay put certainly kick in the pants. yeah. i liked his for the highest highs and lowest lows. it was a roller coaster ride this year. a lot of lies. we didn't make it to the hospital james. that did not know. unfortunately, the ride stopped just short of that. the kron four's will tran is at levi stadium where he's been looking back at how the game went. the season went and all that. what's to come? >> going forward will good

morning. boy, it was a roller coaster ride. we struggled really tough at the beginning of the season. then things got better and then it. came to a halt just before the big game. >> no, it was a roller coaster season. at one point kyle shanahan. he was on the hot seat thinking why is he still around when he has not delivered a super bowl and then they turn it around? they want. i think the last 9 out of 10 games. so they were the hottest team coming into the playoffs and they had a chance. all they have to do is win. lucky number 7 against the rams and they would be back here to date probably going over some game footage and getting ready for the cincinnati bengals. but instead some of them will drift into the facility to pack up their belongings, but things and a box and then begin their vacation plans because it came to an abrupt halt yesterday. let me get to the highlights so 90's low lowlife, as i would say. >> started off with all those fans in attendance. 65% of the

people at so-fi stadium, they travel to the game. >> from the bay area, niners fans, it was so loud that matt stafford once again have to do the silent count. and that's what you do when you're on the road and you can talk to your fellow team because it's so loud. we got even louder when george kittle scores making it 17 to 7 going into the 4th quarter. and it looked like the 9 years old he had do was take care of business. make sure that at the very least matt stafford would only do field goals. instead he drives the team down the last several times and gets points. he could have ended the game for himself and then continue with his legacy of folding under pressure. windsor cost the heart. he had a chance to catch an interception. it was so easy he was pacing the ball like a punt return. instead, it drops off his hands. they would go down, kick a field goal. take the lead. at 20 to 17, jimmy g had a chance to

join the niners legends by either bringing it to overtime, which what he did in week 18 or just winning the game altogether. instead, he throws an interception which possibly could be his very last throw. and there are 9 news is jimmy g talking about the future. >> i think guys, next couple really. start to settle in a little bit. you know, motions awry after game win or loss and it was things got to be, you know, glad it happened. just, you know, smile think about the good you know, we'll see what happens in these next couple of days, weeks, whatever. but i love this team just a bit. the fighting a battle on this team the entire year has been really impressive. i love those guys. >> and those guys love him. they had his back all season no matter what those fair weather fans had to say. you know what? deebo, samuel, this is the indelible image after the game. as far as obj coming over there and consoling him deebo is just to the east, perhaps the most valuable

player might be in the nfl for everything that he does and he cried just after the game. he cried when he walked through the locker room. that was the image jimmy g and the rest of the game. well, we'll just have to wait and see what happens. let's face it. we love football as fans. but for john lynch kyle shanahan is still fundamentally a business and they have business decisions to make, including what happens to jimmy g. >> more than likely he makes too much and they either will shot them or there is the possibility of flat out cutting him only him x amount of dollars, but not the full amount as they probably will move forward with the trey lance air. >> back to guys. james, are you guys yellows tv ehlers like are you do you yell now know year gone positively never yell calls james? i what about you? ice i scream at the tv like, go out what happened. and i actually, you know what, i jump up and down more for

better screen at the television and dari i did use might not show dish use. to last monday my not so football dish, right? but again, i that in a i can appreciate that. this showed so much great. congratulations to the niners notice. a lot of it just as it has will like to say just not showing a nacho year. not that show. yeah. thank you. well, not so some people are saying sf season finished. >> yeah. these and all right. thank thank you. will. i will take a break. it is 7.12, let's hope for better things next year tonight. let's get all the way. all right. we have talked about the thieves that broke into a gym getting away with thousands of dollars worth of equipment. we actually talked to the owner that jim and he'll explain exactly what happened. >> meanwhile, congress is getting ready for president biden. supreme court pick, but some lawmakers are already criticizing him for the way he's approaching the process will talk more about that. and this morning, it's a bit on

monday morning. last day of january and we're finishing off the month with more dry weather. but things do look a little different out there. look at this view of san francisco. got a little bit of sunshine, beaming on the sales first hour. what we're seeing is some fog down below and a little bit of gray up above. you're berkeley hills camera is showing a little bit of a brighter perspective right here. more sunshine piercing through the clouds there. and you can see that foggy blanket that's sitting in san francisco down peninsula into parts of the south bay, some very dense fog in some areas, especially along one o one. so travel a little carefully there. we are seeing a cold front draped across the region. this is contributing to some of our cloudier skies as well as a modest cool down for the week ahead of us. no more upper 60's to mid 60's today at our warmest very low 60's. tonight we will see an increase in winds from the north northeast in that will accompany us through the next couple of days. so even though tomorrow is going to be sunnier, it's going to be a windier day. so you'll still want that jacket on into the

afternoon, really on through the course of this week, not as warm as the past few weeks have been. and today's a little cloudier tomorrow, wednesday, a little windy here. these offshore winds will be gusting as high as 40 miles per hour at some of our upper elevations. she can see sonoma, half moon bay in danville will be among areas with 20 to 30 miles per hour gust towards the middle of the day. tomorrow on into wednesday. this is enough for high wind advisories and wind watches to go into effect tonight lasting through thursday morning for the entirety of the viewing area. now, today's daytime highs, notably cooler than they have been upper 50's to low 60's. it's only a few degrees cooler, but you get a notice. the difference. it's a pairing of the slight cool down some of the clouds that will have today which will make today a crisp feeling one. just make sure you've got the jacket on into the afternoon and tomorrow and wednesday are actually going to be a bit cooler yet. and with the breezy conditions, i'm talking also want the jackets for those 2 days now we will see temperatures starting to recover towards the weekend. climbing back into the mid 60's by friday, saturday and

sunday. your first weekend of the new month and winds also coming really starting to come into thursday. the real big downside of this forecast is, of course, that we're starting february on a dry note, hoping that we will turn things around. but this is yet another dry week of weather ahead. reyna. john, thank you for that. ok, an update on that accident. we were tracking down in los gatos. >> northbound 17 just south of santa cruz avenue. all lanes are now open. so that roadway you're going to be able to drive on there and hopefully the traffic we're seeing there currently, he's going to start to even out there this morning traveling across towards the peninsula. we had an earlier accident here. that's now clear. so about 13 minutes for your drive heading across towards the peninsula, looking at the bay bridge traveling into the city to that fremont street exit a little under 14 minutes for your drive time there. and along 8 80's, you're traveling from to 38 to milpitas to 37 about 31

minutes. james, back to you. thanks right. >> all right. let's turn our attention to the forty-niners and the disappointing loss yesterday in the nfc championship game. it's the rams that are going on to the super bowl will have to lick our wounds and hope for better next year. what am i going to do with these gyms? i went out about these things. that was a big fan. >> save them for next year. don't spoil. yes, they were. next year. we got a bus with the highlights. we've had a bit to the jest. this 49 ers game a little bit of time now and there's a whole lot to unpack here. this is going to be one that will sting for a while for niners fans. 10 point lead in the final quarter. poof, gone. just like that. we've seen this movie before. let's go to so 5 stadium. they were calling it levi south all week. niners fans came in and they showed out, showed exactly why they did their part. >> this guy did to topping out an ankle injury. let's go to the first early on. matt stafford goes to cooper cup in the end zone. but he gets

picked off by jimmie ward. he returns it out to the 20 yard line and niners dodge a bullet. but check out this on the return. fred warner with a cheap shot off. matt stafford, no place for that uncharacteristic for one. but it didn't matter. anyway. the niners couldn't take advantage of it. the rams drive down the field. stafford cup. rams strike first 2nd quarter. same score. this thibault see screen pass. his season and that show really make people miss turned it up. a gear finishes through contact. that's one of the best players in football own looking bust a move to faithful going crazy. looks like a home game. we love to see it later in the quarter. it's 10 7 rams trying to convert on 4th and one. but the niners not get the huge stopped check out the chain game it short by an inch. it's

just that momentum carried over to the next drive. san francisco goes 10 plays 58 yards and it ends with a jimmy garoppolo to george kittle 16 yard pitch and catch. so it's 17 7 at this point. i'm starting to mentally plan out my super bowl plans not so fast. rams drive 75 yards in 7 plays and end with another cup touchdown. he was so good. now, here's one of those plays that will haunt niners fans for some time. staffers airs it out to we're going the other way. but he drops it. easiest pick his career cannot feel that way would go on to kick a game. tying field goal. forty-niners go 3 and out rams ball and it's that cup guy again. he absolutely shredded the forty-niners defense 11 catches 142 yards, 2 touchdowns. but later in the drive for the night as you get 3rd down stop and the rams have to settle for a field

goal. 30 yarder from one. 46 to play in suing drive after an incomplete pass and then a law for 3 3rd law forty-niners give me tries to escape the pocket. but it's the know throw that ends their season, which is quite fitting. the niners blow a 10 point 4th quarter lead eerily similar to that super bowl in 2019, kyle shanahan can't shake that rep. they have pretty are in the locker room. i think guys, next couple really. >> start to settle in a little bit. you know, motions awry after game win or loss and it was things got to be, you know, glad it happened. just, you know, smile think about the good you know, we'll see what happens in these next couple days, weeks, whatever. but i love this team just a bit. the fighting a battle on this team entire year has been really impressive. i love those guys. >> all right. here's the thing. love love the niners hate the rams rams play the bengals.

>> james? yeah, it's the year of the tiger. so the bangles or can we and clearly? >> i might i might be reform of this idea. probably run for his money. >> i can't believe you're wearing that tie. >> it's warriors. the warriors are playing today. that's what i'm doing. sure. looks like something else. all
