asthma, inhalers, and epipens and santa rosa is flowing once again, not from the rain, but from the ground. ktvu tom vacar joins us live from mark west creek, where locals say they're amazed to see so much water in it. tom. people are asking, how did this happen? well tell you what earthquakes bring along with them usually dread and danger. but in this case with the earthquake brought was a little watery surprise, especially for kids. kindergartners as well as the 1st and 2nd graders of redwood adventist academy played and learned in mark west creek. this creek is now wonder of nature made so by last week's magnitude for plus earthquakes that rocked santa rosa and principal lisa paulsen and all of a sudden i was just shaking and i could hear and it's a portable unit and so you could hear everything crunching together and i felt like i was riding the wave. this is a picture of the creek just before the earthquakes way more stones than water. there was a
5:16 pm
lot of algae. covering the water , and it was just very still and it was almost like is there water in this creek? then came the quakes of wednesday. the 14th. we came down here on thursday and we're like whoa! like we ask the kids. what you know, what do you think happened now? it's just flowing so much better and cleaner and clearer and it's great. it's so much fun for the kids. yes it did rain here over the weekend, but the water rise was days ahead of the rain. there's no doubt at all. we had the kindergartners work on building trenches to keep the water flowing before the earthquake, and it was nothing but a trickle. we came down after the day after the earthquake. it was like night and day difference. this is the delightful result of some very serious science, geotechnical science, seismic science that unleashed this water to the kids delight. it's interesting and mysterious, and i think it's kind of neat usgs gov physicist dublin roll offs says this is very common, but rarely noticed
5:17 pm
. so what we think happens is that the earthquake, um because it's shaking the near surface materials, it's just making them a little bit looser and more permeability and the groundwater is a little more easily able to flow out of the ground. and so a science lesson and a super soak , all of them at one time reporting live. tom baker, ktvu fox two news. yeah that's kind of interesting, actually, that we're just talking about that in the newsroom here or in the studio that you know you shake it up a little bit. you're gonna compress some of those fluids in between the rocks and between the shale and perhaps create an increased flow. of course, the rainfall didn't hurt either, right? and we had contacted almost three inches of rain. this storm totals. but for this time of year for we're coming up on the just getting to the equinox tomorrow. these numbers are really, really good. i mean, we're well over average hundreds and hundreds of percent of average for this time of year
5:18 pm
because we don't typically see much in the way of rain. we had some sprinkles this morning showers up to 2/10 of an inch, maybe a little more in the coastal hills down around ben loman up in terms half moon bay, upchurch, stinson beach and marine county. these are some of the storm totals. san francisco from sunday to wednesday only ended up 3/10 of an inch of rain, half inch of rain and san jose. that's pretty good again. this goes a long way in helping us with the fire concerns that we have been having and will probably continue to have a terminal equinox begins tomorrow . that's when the sub solar point that the sun's direct rate of right over the equator, so it's 63 specific time. the sun's sub solar point would be. it's supposed to be right over the equator. so what it means is right, essentially equal day. equal night. it's not because the way the earth shaped it's not quite equal. that's where the return echo equal right. equal latin. so the equinox tomorrow it's my favorite equinox, actually, well, there's only two but this is my favorite one only because this time of
5:19 pm
year is money in the bay area. we're going to see it. we've got temperatures today. that kind of, you know, trending. not that warm little warmer on thursday, little warmer on friday, saturday and sunday. i've i, it's i was. it's not hot. i mean, 94 livermore. it's very warm. i guess it is hot. it's still relative. but compared to what? there's one seventeens we saw, it just seems about right for this time of year. so there is the trend for this week. the rain has done for a while. the temperatures are gonna warm up for the weekend fire. danger will be think a thing for sure. but again, the rainfall certainly helped increase those fuel moistures. i'll see you back here with the full forecast. all right, bill. thank you. hurricane fiona that strengthened now into a category four storm after blowing right through the turks and caicos islands and devastating puerto rico, this is a look at the flooding in puerto rico, where most people are still without power or even running water. fiona is forecast to come very close to bermuda later this week , and that is where we find fox weather's robert ray, who has been tracking the storm, robert yes, indeed. hurricane fiona.

5:21 pm
by monday, you wouldn't even think of hurricane came across from you to that's how we are. that's how we ruled on here. we arrived on friday and no thoughts of leaving. um to be honest, from what we've heard of what's happening. it's not really going to touch base too hard on bermuda's about 100 and whatever, miles off the coast. just gonna get the old skirt something like more or less. we're gonna get some little lightning and thunder and little more rain and stuff. and i think that's supposed to get yourself some batteries and water and couple of stuff. generators running and you should be okay. back here live in bermuda. and certainly yes, people should be okay here, but they need to heed the warnings even though this hurricane is going to be 100 miles offshore. we're still going to feel the brunt of those potentially even low category one wins. that's 70 miles an hour plus guys and that can create damage down trees and there's going to be 50. foot swells in the atlantic around
5:22 pm

5:23 pm
tickets even though there are many hotels here on the island that have temporarily shut down, many of them opening back up saturday, but, yeah, even the government here saying to people, you know don't take this lightly at all. i mean, tomorrow at this time, it's going to be blowing like mad behind me. all right, robert ray live tonight. there in bermuda, right appreciate the report. russia has shamelessly violated the court tenants. president biden slamming russia's invasion of ukraine at the u. n. general assembly jackie heinrich in new york. i'll have the details coming up. and coming up at six o'clock. attorneys for elizabeth holmes says she deserves a new trial. but prosecutors claim that's only a stall tactic before her sentencing next month.

5:28 pm
because there's really no point in playing the russian game and making another threat just to seem, um, like, you know, you're brandishing your nuclear arsenal as well. that was the formula that was first used. jointly by soviet leader mikhail gorbachev and president reagan in 1985, so he was subtly reminding, um, i think the russian people that this was something was spoken by their own leader. other global leaders from countries such as france, latvia and poland also condemned putin's remarks about the possible use of nuclear weapons flights out of russia skyrocketing and caused all while dwindling in availabilities still ahead, why some russians are suddenly racing to flee their home country and newly released video showing the moment of truth when investigators confirmed that a northern california woman was lying about being kidnapped.
