11:13 pm
new at 11:00, marriott's data breach didn't affect as many people as first reported, but the information stolen is especially troubling. marriott has announced that more than 5 million unencrypted passport numbers were stolen in november's data breach. along with travel itineraries. those behind the attack can use that information to track government and business executives and potentially spy on them. the attack is believed to have originated in china. it's been a year since california legalized recreational marijuana, and believe it or not, sales haven't lived up to expectations. state officials projected that the new law would bring in cannabis tax revenue, but a lot of that money hasn't rolled in yet. in the first half of 2018 the

11:16 pm
majority asian cast broke box office records and scored two golden globe nominations. at last year's emmys oh proved that evolving storyline hits home. >> are you so proud of your little girl? >> there's a certain type of pressure in the asian community. ultimately, my parents couldn't and didn't stop me from being who i am. and i'm eternally grateful for that. >> reporter: even our conversation a reflection of the change she champions. >> this experience right now for me is tremendous. you know, it makes me feel very, very, very happy because there's an immediate kinship here. i feel like i can feel change happening. because we're talking. >> reporter: a star setting the stage for the many shades of hollywood. kathy park, nbc news, los angeles. well, with the sandra oh and andy samberg co-hosting this
11:17 pm
year's show, things are bound to get a little unorthodox. >> yeah. take these glamour shots tweeted by the golden globes announcing the newest member -- yeah. this is the newest member of the security team. it's a hawk. that's right. they brought in a hawk to watch the skies over the red carpet, scare off any unwanted visitors. got to protect those expensive gowns and suits from pigeons and seagulls. yeah, this thing's no joke. those talons, ouch. >> the talons are going to come in handy knocking away those seagulls. you know what they're bringing. the golden globe awards airs tomorrow night on nbc bay area. the show airs live from the beverly hilton in l.a., and it starts at 5:00. >> it'll be great to just stay home, cuddle up with a blanket and watch it. >> we'll be watching a lot of rain here, maybe not getting into southern california as we walk the red carpet. it doesn't look like it will impact that. but for your plans locally, yeah, plan on some wind and rain as we head into the afternoon. right now there's the view
11:18 pm
across san francisco. a lot less wind than we saw earlier today, and not as cold tonight. how about 52 degrees? almost comfortable outside. after a few nights spent in the 30s and low 40s. high of 56. wind speeds have backed off. right now in dublin 47 degrees. we'll see temperatures eventually in the low 40s by morning and in san jose right now 50 degrees. wind out of the west-southwest coast at six miles per hour, and right now our storm ranger mobile doppler radar as quiet as it has been all day long. still a few isolated showers will come through overnight. so you may hear the sound of some brief downpours at times, but you can see how the coverage is dropping off right now as technically we're in between storms. you'll notice here off the coast all these clouds will kind of get their act together by tomorrow morning bringing some more rain starting off in the north bay. as early as sunrise. but if you've got any plans, you've got to get to the grocery store, try to do it before 9:00 in the morning because by
11:19 pm
lunchtime tomorrow winds will pick up and rain will follow. mostly cloudy skies for the day. watch the progression for the winds. these areas in purple showing you the wind gusts tomorrow, kind of in the same ballpark we saw today as those winds pick up out of the west-southwest. could see gusts close to 45 miles per hour again. in terms of rainfall, from 7:00 a.m. to noon doesn't look all that impressive pu the bigger totals will be here in the north bay. but really the main event rainfallwise, mid afternoon through late evening. unlike today that sustained rain should put us in the ballpark for two three inches in some of the wetter mountain areas including the santa cruz mountains and the north bay with the second storm that will be coming on in. hour by hour for you, 11:00 beginning to see the rain spread across the bay area. 5:00, that's probably the main event for the steadest and heaviest rain, but the second storm. and then by 11:00 things begin to calm down. notice the clearing in terms of showers heading into monday, and that should be good news for the national championship game out at levi's stadium. looks like now partly cloudy skies heading into monday
11:20 pm
evening, and that's the break. we'll see monday, then tuesday and wednesday praet pretty powerful-looking storm here that's going to bring some high surf to the coast. 20-foot-plus swells heading to the coast with some heavy rain at times. the forecast stays active once we get rid of the second storm for tomorrow. break comes on monday. high surf, high wind, big rain event coming in for wednesday. then another storm follows late friday into saturday. so these are strong storms. the good news is we're getting these breaks in between the kind of space-out runoff issues. as long as the storms follow that passport, we should be setting up pretty well to head toward next weekend making rainfall recoveries and building on the sierra snowpack which was just measured at 67%. as this pattern plays out, we could see that closer to 80% by next week. >> wow, by next week. the college football national championship two days away at levi's stadium but the festivities in full swing. good weather for the game. >> that's right.
11:21 pm
>> today was made media day. alabama running back harris is a standout running back. from antioch. trying to get as many friends and family to the game as he can. >> i'm going to get a limited amount of tickets. i give out most to my brothers and sisters. i'm trying to get some more, but it's hard right now. trying to focus on football. >> a lot of the visiting players, in-n-out burger. about 20 players from clemson went there last night right after the entire alabama offensive line went there. man, i'd like to know what the tabs were. one of them told us he ordered a four by four burger with four extra patties on the side. from double-doubles. to the dub nation. laura britt joins us after the break with highlights from tonight's thrilling, record-setting warriors game. this is not a bed.
