Abc 7 News ReporterLyanne Melendez is live with the precautions being taken. Reporter people are taking this storm very seriously here. Its not going to be a massive storm, but the north bay has been punched hard. You know, the ground is overly saturated. It cant hold any more. Its done. Crews took advantage of the light rain to quickly put up this on a hillside that collapsed. The tarp keeps the water off the slide and mud to keep it from eroding more and coming down the hill. Reporter the street was only open to local residents and even they were having a hard time getting around some of the large equipment. Now i got to get down to sir francis drake, go about three or four blocks, go up the top of the hill and hope everything will let me get home.

Jennifer ray and her family were in trouble with no land line or cell service in the mountains, she turned to Facebook Live to get help from a massive mudslide. Some of the cars are getting washed away. If someone can call caltrain or whoever and send them up to hour house.

Cameras are already used to nab red light runners, maybe they have gotten you and may be used to catch speeders, as well. Several cities are looking at installing Speed Enforcement cameras. Vic lee is live and one of those cities, San Francisco with who is endorsing this concept. Vic . Reporter fully support this camera that catch speeders and thats because of his Vision Zero Mission to eliminate all traffic deaths and now, hes getting some help from assemblyman david chu pushing a bill in sacramento to make these cameras possible. Victims of traffic accidents spoke out in support. Julie mitchells son died when he was ran over by a garbage truck. All hopes and dreams for his future were destroyed because of a crash that could have been prevented. Reporter this is an automated speed camera. It operates like a red light camera. You speed, the camera shoots your license plate and your fine comes in the mail. Some 140 cities around the country have the cameras. State assemblyman david chu says they made a difference. In washington d. C. A city with similar density as ours, 82 drop in speeding and 70 reduction in fatalities. Reporter its not legal in california. If chus bill passes, it will be. San francisco and san jose w be the pilot cities. Slow down. And we need to enforce that and make it a big deal and this will help. Between 40 and 60 fatalities occur every year in the city of san jose. Reporter reaction from those we spoke with in the streets was xed. Many compare them to red light cameras. They were given a lot of tickets, where it wasnt 100 accurate. So im kind of upbeat about it. I think they are a horrible idea. Stop the accidents at least or help mitigate them. Reporter some critics say its a moneymaker for cities. Chu says no, a ticket will cost only 100, all of it going to the Camera Program and not to city coffers. There is no chance of speeding tonight on westbound 580 in livermore. Look, a giant pothole that backed up traffic to tracy this morning is still causing problems. Look at the lights there. This was no ordinary pothole. It was 8 feet long and had exposed rebar. Youre seeing it there. Caltrans crews have been trying to repair it all day and while that happens, two lanes are closed. The pothole is expected to be fixed by 9 00 or 10 00 tonight and many people are asking how exactly do potholes form . Why is this the season for potholes . Christian is here with some answers. Ama, you know driving over a pothole can do a lot of damage to your car and wallet but why do they form . Lets take a look, here is a slice of a road. We have the top layer, the pavement that you drive on and underneath it, you have the rock base and the soil. So during the summer, heat causes tiny cracks to form in the pavement. Now, when winter comes like now and it rains, water seeps into the cracks and that creates what . Air gaps inside the pavement that washes out the base layer there. So then, the softened asphalt breaks up under the weight of passing cars, which squeezes for water into the pavement and then drivers drive over that weakened spot over and over again and a pothole is born. So what can you do if you hit a pothole . If it is a road maintained by cal trans, you can file a damage claim. We have a link to the claim form at abc7news. Com and remember, most claims need to be filed within six months of the incident. That is the form there. Go to abc7news. Com. Dan and ama. Thank you. Sky 7 flew over the Regional Park today. The park is closed because of flooding from storms last month and the east bay region Park District doesnt expect to reopen until at least monday.

Were doing the math now. Wait until down hear the well, they say lightning does not strike the same place twice. That saying does not apply to mudslides. Twice in a month a mudslide spilled on the same place on highway 17 in the Santa Cruz Mountains near scotts valley. Both times drivers were caught in the debris. Now, we are going to say at least both of them are okay. Yes, one of the drivers is our friend ian babcock. Hes a photographer here at abc 7 and on his way to work last month when the hillside came down on his truck. It was really terrifying. We were scared when we heard the news. For the first time, ian feels ready to talk about it and show us with video he recorded moments after the mudslide. He shared his story of survival with Jonathan Bloom. God, my air bag went off. Jesus christ. Yes. The whole mountain came down on top of me. Reporter these were the first terrifying moments after abc 7 news photographer ian babcock found himself trapped on his vehicle. We need chp badly. We have chp, fire and ambulance on route. Reporter it was 3 00 in the morning and he was on his way to work. The whole mountain exploded on me like this. It didnt come down in front of me, it came straight sideways and crash. That was it. I hit a boulder at 45 miles an hour. Reporter chp video shows what became out van he was driving mangled but the impact was just the beginning. For the moment a world went black but then. I could feel the truck getting raised up on two wehee and the sound was deafening. Im getting pushed across the highway and boulders coming in and branchs and i thought this is it. Im done. Reporter the slide stops. Are you all right . Im bleeding from here. Reporter the driver saw wires across the head so ian decided to wait for authorities. Be careful. I dont want you to get ele electrocut electrocuted. Reporter fors pried open the door. Highway 17 is a major artery for commuters who those who drive it every day know landslides are there. Not a month after, it happened again in the same spot. It floored me. It really did. I just was thinking i knew that was going to happen. Reporter that driver also survived perhaps the only person who knows quite how ian felt the moment the earth came crashing down. It became the story i really didnt want to. Im just glad im alive. Reporter in santa cruz, Jonathan Bloom, a bbc 7 news. We are, too, ian. Glad youre okay. Its rained every day this month after january set some rainfall records. Abc 7 news drew tuma has a look at the numbers that shocked, even you . Yeah, its been a wet winter but when you dig into the numbers, you realize how soaked we have been this rainy season across the entire region, we are running a rainfall surplus. From oakland to San Francisco more than half a foot above normal but santa rosa and this is not a typo. Almost two feet in excess of the normal rainfall to this date. This is why weve seen so many storm related issues and will likely see more tomorrow. Spencer christian will be back with an update on the strong ranking a three tomorrow in accuweather, ama .

King in the pioneers of the Civil Rights Movement but former nba great and current usf official wants them to learn. He helped arrange this visit. Like he was right there at the forefront so to have him here is special. Reporter jackson shared a key lesson he learned from Martin Luther king. Our future is based upon learning to coexist and not coannihilate. It wasnt history. The reverend jackson was critical of president trumps nominee to be attorney general and alabama senator jeff sessions. Its his mission to further null fieify a vote as it took courage to register, it will take courage.

President trump held a round table today with 13 sheriffs from across the nation. President trump talked about the soaring number of homicides in chicago and made a claim about the nations murder raid that contradicts further data. The murder rate in our country is the highest its been in 47 years, right . Did you know that . 47 years. I used to use that id say that in a speech and everyone was surprised because the press doesnt tell it like it. The latest fbi statistic shows the rate jumped more in 2015 than half a century but lower than it was 45 years prior. Another topic mr. Trump discussed, his immigration executive order. He says he had a right to enact it insisting the countrys security is at risk. The federal court in San Francisco made no decision over the president s travel ban. Yesterday judges of the ninth Circuit Court of appeals heard arguments on both sides. Its unclear when the court will decide whether to reinstate the ban. Coming up next, a classic game show gets a bay area twist that youll only find in San Francisco. And here is a live look outside from our camera as we enjoy a brief lull in the constant storms.

He has a been a match fan his whole life. I used to skip school to watch game shows. The idea started 15 years during a party. Drag queens pride themselves on being funny and whitty.

Festive [ bleep ]. The audience really gets into it. [ cheers ] awesome. Loving every minute of it. The performers love it, too.

These are some of the emails ive received, more than 40 complaints consumer hot line about pg e bills and an additional rate increase in the making. Its already been approved. These homeowners met each other while venting about utility bills on the social network next door. He initiated the conversation. We started realizing that our bills are going up increasingly anywhere between 50 to 80 . Reporter pg e confirms rates went up 21 in the last year alone with the bulk of the increase coming in august. This time the increase was dramatically high. Reporter but the utility says customers didnt notice until they turned on their heaters this winter. We have had several rate changes over the course of last year, and that is primarily to Fund Projects that will benefit safety and reliability of our gas and electric systems. Reporter the rate increase was originally proposed in 2014 and ultimately approved by the California Public utilitys Commission Last year. The Utility Reform Network says that decision also includes another rate increase in 2018 of at least 5 . Its money we have to pay out of our pockets. Its infuriating. Its absolutely ridiculous and brings me back to the question, who is looking out for the consumer. Reporter the Commission Approved an 850 million fine against pg e related to the san bruno fire and explosion back in 2010. That fine will be used to negotiate any increase in 2017. Its really the body who is responsible and for those of us who are upset about high utility bills, we really have to get involved.

Ive been part of the loudest nights in that arena so i know its not going to be the friendliest welcome. I cant wait to see the people that really 3wibuild relationsh with over my time. There i cant imagine what it will feel like for k. D. Thats a different level. Its one thing to be a role lawer but super star in one town and have the place adore you and city to go back is going to be obviously very emotional for him. He grew up there pretty much into a man so thats hard to turn off. Its probably a mixed reaction. Youll hear boos and some cheers. I mean, they cant forget how much he did for that city. If its huge for him, its huge for us. Obviously, we have a couple games to take care of before that game but like any other time, we always have one that you have circled on the schedule.

Coach turned this game into a complete joke. You cant have that. 49ers will formally introduce the new head coach tomorrow arrived in the bay today.
