up in the atmosphere and give rise to some thunderstorms. and that's what we're seeing out there right now. numerous lightning strikes popping up. look at that. almost too many to count across the central valley and now looking for the potential to get severe out there as we've got a tornado warning that has now been moved into effect there. just northeast of stockton. you can see near farmington making its way towards san andreas. look at that line of strong storms through that area. very heavy rainfall right now and started to try and get a signature of swirl in atmosphere, getting an idea that we may have a tornado trying to form. so tornado warnings in effect until 5.15, but that may very well be extended. these thunderstorms are staying very strong right now and would be unheard of to see this a stick around and be reissued. just moved a little further to the northeast. the track on these storms will continue in this direction following right along this line here show anywhere along that line the you're looking at some possibility of some very dangerous weather now we've

got some more severe thunderstorms all along. parts of the central valley. there's a possibility we could see some more thunderstorms here as well. a further to the north. of course, you've got more storms coming down. you've got the snow in the sierra nevada and you've got another very strong line near yuba city pushing out toward the northeast near a also up towards grass valley and a feather falls. that is bring some very heavy rainfall there and the potential for maybe some tornadic activity in that area. things will be happening fast throughout the evening. we'll keep tracking right here on kron. 4. >> all right, lawrence, california regulators charged with protecting employees in the workplace have passed another round of covid-19 safety rules they're now in place for the entire year instead of expiring next month. and he's got 4. kerman explains. some employees are ecstatic. well, some business owners are more concerned about the financial burden. >> cal osha standards board has re adopted its covid-19 workplace safety regulations. labor advocates say that's

be difficult for businesses still struggling to get back up on their feet. >> you have an increased costs in that businesses may have to hand out more n 95 respirators than they do under the prior version upon employees also increased testing requirements. so it's hard to project exactly how those will hit individual businesses, particularly because they may change based on your case rates, right? we see potential increasing costs of those areas that we're going to have a lot of this in california. >> these covid workplace regulations will run through the end of the year. labor advocates are hoping for a more permanent solution after that. dan kerman kron, 4 news. >> coming some bay area visitors where vice president kamala harris and president barack obama work earlier today. >> and president biden announcing millions of dollars in more aid for ukraine is he says this war could be far from over. >> plus, the does look to go up 3 games to 0 in denver
