and day after day. the white house supports them, and we believe, of course in peaceful protests, but critics say those demonstrations are illegal. federal law prohibits anyone from obstructing justice by picketing outside a judge's home. in order to influence them . republicans say the biden ministrations is playing politics with protests. chrissy from the left is really unbelievable. i mean, here we have the white house encouraging people. to go out and do engage in what amounts to harassment. attorney general merrick garland remains silent on the issue when just seven months ago he directed the fbi to look into threats made against school board members because, as he put it, threats against public servants are not only illegal, they run counter to our nation's core values. we stand at the front line for democracy. and we all justices and federal court judges are at all levels need to be protected democracy demands this, the white house only going

so far as to say there's been no violence committed against the justices yet. as for the chanting and picketing outside the white house isn't budging, protests and intimidation outside of their homes of school board members. the michigan secretary of state, uh you know, intimidation and threats against people seeking legal reproductive healthcare against our capital and american democracy also warrant some outrage. congress is taking action, though last evening, the senate approved a bipartisan measure to increase security for not only supreme court justices , but also their immediate family members at the white house. i might show hosni fox news all right. he was a breezy day again today. tomorrow's me breezy as well. temperatures are going to be a little warmer, but still not in by any sense, overly warm or hot. it's going to be a little warmer than today. so it was 67 antiochus. not bad, but then you can around oakland was just 59 degrees. it was just 59 in san rafael. the

winds really kept things cool around here, plus the thunderstorms that showed up in the north bay. i mean, those things were really popping off for around +34567 o'clock this afternoon, some heavy rain as this system right here, this kind of low pressure center just keeps spinning it. it's out of here by tonight tomorrow morning, but it's created instability for the last two days, and finally today it did show us some activity. and some of these storm reports are just you know, these are folks that had unusual occurrences in their neighborhood that are trained observers. this was at 5 53 6 o'clock tonight, hail on the east side of santa rosa think we had lots of hill reports out there, but you get the idea. there are plenty of those plenty of snow porch in the mountains and as we go into tomorrow, it's not going to be a chance of there won't be a chance of rain, but there will be an opportunity for the those strong winds again. so you see right here. you've got a 10 a.m. you can see that. we've got a little bit of wind but watch what happens right there as we get into the afternoon hours. on thursday. i missed that out. but what i want

to show you was tomorrow afternoon's wind speeds. basically the wind sticks around. it's pretty strong, right lot of strongest right along the coast. of course, you know, ocean beach great highway pacifica. northwest winds. this isn't a fire danger win. this is the onshore type of wind. these are the current temperature is gonna be cool tonight. the winter dying down. that'll do it. temperatures about where they were last night. it was called last night and reports of frost and freezing near freezing temperatures in the north bay. and in fact that will happen again tonight. it might be just a little bit court tonight than it was last night. so he experienced process morning or really low temperatures. you'll experience me in tomorrow morning, maybe a little cooler kids only jackets on the way to school. you'll be thinking about putting the heater on in the car a little bit on your way into work this cool air. is moving out. it has been here for about 2.5 34 days and as it moves off, the high builds in, but only for a short time is his next system. tweaks to the north brings some clouds on thursday, but it's subtle change at this point. so what's really happening here is the main event is over or ending . the cold will be the thing you noticed tomorrow morning. the wind tomorrow afternoon. and

then as you get into thursday, friday, saturday and sunday temperatures just kind of work their way back up. so forecast highs tomorrow. yellows are seventies greens are sixties. that makes sense, little warmer 71 in fairfield, 70 and antioch's 65 3 month tomorrow. so the five day forecast and you can see right here breezy little bit less wind about the same temperature. i think it would be a little warmer than 70. maybe 73 and then friday, saturday and sunday, especially on saturday, the warmest day things were up a little bit. didn't get a lot of rain out of this one. not many people did, but it did rain and snow in the mountains. so that was good for us. got a little something in the bucket? i'll see you back here, 11. we'll see you then. bill. thank you. a basic income program may be coming to the city of alameda next year. such programs provide residents qualify with a monthly cash payment. they can use to pay for anything they choose. council members will decide next week whether to fund that pilot program with $4.6 million from the american rescue plan act. similar pilot programs have
