tell you this, and the reason for that is we thought it was just a couple of homes. it is way, way more than that. it is still early in the game, but the damage is very, very real. here are the facts. the torrential rains came just before 3 am, and in seconds a 250 foot long landslide wiped out a duplex structure in a standalone home. a woman was trapped in one of those homes that collapsed, and using the jaws of life like tool, she was quickly extricated with only minor injuries and then released. a search and rescue team is still searching the area to assure that there are no other victims. it is now believed there are. the slide took out gas and electric utilities, leaving the neighborhood without essential services. this resulted in the evacuation of dozens of people living nearby, and an evacuation is still very much in effect. here's the additional damage. to other duplexes and one standalone residents have also

been red tagged for now. >> if i had concerns here outside of the town that i said we were red tagged, we are talking right now that if there's any homes we need to keep homes out of. >> reporter: they have to take what he says with a little bit of a grain of salt. here's why. the land here now is completely different. the watershed has been changed. geotechnical forces at work are different than they were yesterday. the land is diluted and more rains will keep changing all of these dynamics second by second, so in a few words it is an extremely dangerous situation changing as we have said second by second. reporting live, tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. in marin county, chp caltrans, and marin county sheriff's deputies monitoring highway 37 for a potential flood situation. this after a levy was breached,

county until about 7:30 this evening. thankfully, we have this radar to show you right now, that includes a lot of breaks in the action. a few scattered showers, kind of hit and miss shower activity, so we are not completely dry. at least we are not talking about a big area of heavy rainfall. santa cruz mountains they need a break, and san jose showing some break and cloud cover. it is this guy that is cold air that will send in some more rain showers this evening and over the next few days as we head into the weekends. we'll talk more about that system and update the river level coming up in a little bit. people living there hand hoses little san jose's willow got the okay to return home after a flood wanting prompted evacuations overnight. that issue just one of many around south day. maureen naylor joins us live with more from guadalupe river. maureen? >> reporter: alex, the sun is out which was not the case earlier today. i am standing by the guadalupe a liver, one of the biggest

concerns. at one point earlier today this was at the 16 foot level. it has now receded to about 12.5 feet, and officials now say they are in the monitoring phase. rain soaked the south bay thursday, leaving some to describe this storm with one word. >> never ending. >> reporter: they started with evacuations for about 800 people living near the guadalupe river. they were asked to leave their homes because of concerns of letting. >> two policemen came to the house and said you need to think about evacuating, and so then i did. >> reporter: about three hours later, the evacuation order was lifted. >> we were very concerned that the water was at that point where it would be too late to put out a notice. you always have to stay in front of it because you want people to be safe. >> reporter: in los gatos, a

massive eucalyptus tree branch came down the storm. atlanta on power lines, forcing the closer of shannon redden happy acres. while pg&e worked to prepare the hazard, it was without power for neighbors. noah lost power at his home and needed a generator to open his gait. >> we're lucky we have a generator. and at around five this morning, maybe earlier, so it has been seven hours, seven hours too long. >> reporter: in san jose, pg&e worked to repair another downed power pole after another creek came down. >> reporter: a lack of electricity did not talk their valentine's day celebration, which included flashlights hung from the garland. outside the kids hung park in the rate. >> this nature, it happens, and we respond to it, and adjust accordingly. >> reporter: the water may be receiving here at the guadalupe river, but a hazard remains. official keep coming by to check these levels.

many people came by and took pictures. it is quite muddy here and slippery down there. they are concerned someone could slip and fall into that, so keep that in mind. back to you. now we got to san francisco, where this second day of rain has led to even more flooding and downed trees there. officials say they have received reports of at least 65 trees falling in this storm. the wet ground leaving the trees with this little to stand on. >> reporter: christien kafton is live on davis street with a look at the damage there, and more than 65 trees have already come down. >> reporter: yeah, a lot of trees, guys. you heard maureen talk about it, we are enjoyed the respite between storms right now. it is bright, sunny, actually pretty nice out in san francisco right now, but the story in the bay, trees. this is just one of those trees that came down overnight here. crews have been working throughout the day to remove this tree and davis repeat it is a story that repeated all over the city today. around san francisco's , crews

scrambled from one downed tree to another. appeared eucalyptus trees came crashing down in the early morning hours. >> my husband woke up around 3 am to kind of a rumble, and the big crash, and it happened again i don't know, 15 minutes later, and our first thought was earthquake! replica crews using giant cranes this morning to remove those trees, and if that was not enough, a third tree just a dozen yards away came crashing down as well. this one dragging down power lines. >> when we woke up this morning, no power, there was a big tree that had fallen into our apartment complex, and landed in somebody's living room. >> reporter: pg&e throughout the morning worked to restore power, crews work to remove the tree. along the waterfront one bark acree came down crashing on a pickup truck. they remove that tree as well. san francisco department public works that it all, more than

case. keep in mind, they say they have workers covered and water just this afternoon, so still might be a lot more cleanup to do, and guys, more rain in the forecast. we are live here in san francisco. christien kafton, ktvu fox 2 news. and you can stay up-to-date on all the weather conditions by downloading our newly updated ktvu weather app . it has interactive radar, hourly updates, and the seven-day forecast. it also has an easy feature to share your photos and videos. still to come here on the four, i'm going to sit down with a student and educator to learn more about interventions that amy to get more girls into jobs in the fields of science and technology. developing news on capitol hill. the president says he is now ready to sign a budget deal to avert a government shutdown, but he is also expected to make a controversial move to get money for border wall. details on that after the break.

the u.s. senate overwhelmingly passed a bill, offering $1.4 billion for border security. lauren blanchard tells us president trump is expected to sign the bill and then declare a national emergency to get even more money for his border wall.

>> reporter: president trump and his team spent the day going over this, more than 1100 page bill to look for landmines before he signs it, and the senate leaders says it is going to get the go-ahead from the oval office. >> i would say all my colleagues have indicated he's prepared to sign the bill. he will also be issuing a national emergency declaration at the same time. >> reporter: the president and leader mcconnell speaking today. many were wondering if the president would declare a national emergency after he signs the bill to avert the shutdown in order to get more border money. a number of lawmakers have been against a declaration because of the precedent it sets and because it is likely to face legal challenges. >> i'm going to support the national emergency declaration. >> when the president declares this emergency, first of all it is not an emergency. >> reporter: the bill look like it will also have enough support in congress. first the senate passing the bill, next the house will vote. if it passes, it heads back to the white house. >> we had to deal in facts that are based on reality, not

rhetoric based on political fantasy. >> reporter: the proposal will provide funding for 55 new miles of border barrier, but it is nowhere near the amount the president wanted, and the bill does not call it a wall. >> the agreement provides smart border security. it will not fund the president's expensive, ineffective wall. >> reporter: in a statement, the white house press secretary confirming the president will sign the funding bill and declare a national emergency, saying it is part of delivering on his promise to build the wall and secure the border. in washington, lauren blanchard, ktvu fox 2 news. only nine republicans and five democrats voted no., harris was one of them. she said she opposed more funding for immigrant attention at the border. three fellow children, elizabet

cory booker also voted no in a vote that could likely become a campaign talking point. let's talk about the event center unfolding at capitol hill today, and we are joined by henry e brady, dean at the golden school of public policy at uc berkeley. thanks for coming on with us. it looks like we will be averting another government shutdown. the white house is practiced trump is going to sign this spending bill, but of course we have seen him reverse course before at the last minute. any chance at all you think that president trump may be surprises everyone? >> i think it is unlikely. i'm sure he will probably sign the bill, but the national emergency, the interesting thing and to see if it really does that, it's an unusual national emergency.'s usually wars are terrorism, that is not quite this. >> how was he going to justify the declaration of a national emergency? >> he's going to try to argue it is like a terrorist attack or it is like a natural disaster, but i'm sure there will be people who will probably come up with blockades

and ask whether that is really true, and they're going to dispute it. it is an unusual case. obviously, president in the past including president obama, they have obviously declared national emergencies, but help us understand how rare it is for a president to declare a national emergency in order to fund a domestic construction project that congress is unwilling to fund. >> well, there may be a case, but i reviewed all the cases that i can find, and i could not find a single one that was really about funding something like this. usually what they are is embargoing some country and saying we are not going to have trade relations with them or try to find ways to limit terrorism and things like that, but it is not about using already allocated dollars for do in this case. >> help me understand where the legal challenges are like to come from once the president declares emergency. >> it is conceivable congress will decide to override his decision. they have the right to do that under an act passed in 1976 that said congress can pass a direct resolution, and if the

president signs a joint resolution, he would be prohibited from doing a national emergency declaration. but then if he vetoes that, which he likely would do, the house and senate could override him with two thirds vote, and that might happen. that is not impossible. >> it sounded like there's a lot of republicans in congress were certainly not on board of this idea of an emergency declaration because of the president in my sent moving forward. >> will initially, mitch mcconnell said he was not in favor of a national emergency declaration and would not support it, and in the area because he did not want to have a shutdown of the government, partial shutdown, he decided he would go along with it, but he's indicative of a lot of republicans who actually think this is a bad idea, and they worry about a president who might be a democrat for example in the future who would cite this is an example of how they can do pretty much anything they want to do with money that has been appropriated already for another purpose. >> before i let you go, with an

emergency declaration, the present is talk about what sort of departments or programs are likely to lose out on money in that case? >> it seems probably easiest to get some of the parts of it from the department of defense where there are some existing laws that you can maybe take some of that money to deal with military problems. he may have other ways that he can do it. i'm sure there's going to be court challenges if he does it. >> henry e. brady, the dean of golden school of public policy in uc berkeley. mark, we've been talking about the weather. we were going live to our reporters earlier. you can actually see some blue sky out there. >> we will take it with some breaks in the rainit's not goin we have some clouds, breaks in the clouds, and a bit of a breeze, so we are transitioning to the cool part of this weather pattern, and you will

thanks for being with us too, joey. this event was strengthening her education, and the students, they met with professionals in s.t.e.m. -related fields , and what was the goal to bring them together? >> right. we are very excited to bring together a panel of inspiring speakers, women speakers from many of our biotech companies and tech engineering companies to inspire and empower our girls to consider a career in healthcare and s.t.e.m. in engineering so that they can feel more career ready to study in those areas and see themselves in those roles. >> in order to see themselves in those roles, you had professionals from various companies here in the bay area, kaiser, cisco among others, and these professionals are meant to be role models. >> that is right, and they spent a large part of their day doing speed mentoring and answering questions and sharing their journey, which has an

opportunity to talk about their education and the experience they had as you know, young women themselves in exploring whether this was their passion and their past , and what struggles they had, how they overcame them, who was their mentor, how do they build their trust and support system and the resources they had to be successful. >> joey, let me ask you. you were there for the summit yesterday? >> yeah. >> what did you take away from it? how helpful did you find the event? >> i realized that like going into like a medical field, it is not only doctors and nurses. it is more on like is more spread out, and they have like financials and they have like marketing and like people finding new jobs for the medical field, and it is not just -- yeah, doctors and nurses. >> what area specifically do you want to get into in the future? >> right now it is undecided because i know if i decide now

connect our business community and put them as volunteers into the school during the school day so that they can model to students the opportunity to you know, to be part of you know, the high growth, high in demand businesses like the s.t.e.m. businesses who partner with us , cisco and roche and genentech which we mentioned, and also to give them the actual hands on skills that the schools need us as partners to give him. >> what does an event like this -- how does this move forward? i mean at are built. how are those fostered moving forward between the students and the professionals? >> right, so what junior achievement does, we offer curriculums every week. that's happening every week, and with our capstone events, the hands on skills that they get continue with job

and the mentorship opportunities. we also have internships, and if it happens organically than the students, as joey witnessed, she can connect with those businesswomen and reach out to them through you know, business cards and linked in, and then -- exactly, exactly. >> is what it is all about, connections, no matter what field you're getting into. heather small with junior achievement of northern california and joey ow from panola valley high, correct? take care. and in weather, still a little bit of a break in the shower activity, but the rainfall will redevelop. i know it has been quite the week. a little breakdown of the timing of rain coming our way after the break.
