24-hour loop. and it's leaving haiti and that category 4 storm is now right there on the eastern tip of cuba. so our very latest information we just got from the national weather service showing winds 140 miles per hour gusts at 165. so that's a crazy strong storm and it's moving right now north at about 9 miles per hour. so it looks like it's tracking northwest from there and as you can see, it is cutting straight through the middle of the bahamas. there's hurricane warnings already in effect there. from there track looks a little more uncertain but right now it's likely to parallel the florida coast. right there the southeastern coast. the next couple of days will really be crucial with this but obviously this is a very dangerous storm. we'll have more on our local weather forecast coming

wrapping up a meeting on this very issue as we speak. the crux of the issue is of course housing not having enough of it in the city of san francisco. they want brisbane to step in and help. but the

small town. like, everybody knows each other. >> it still has a small town feel. >> reporter: here the population is just about 4,000. and most residents are on a first name basis. but if jane kim

annexing brisbane making it a part of san francisco if it refuses to cooperate. they haven't budged and they don't like change. >> i don't like it at all. that would totally make it -- it wouldn't be brisbane. it wouldn't be a town. it wouldn't be small. i don't think our kids would be as safe. >> i just don't think that san francisco should take over brisbane. >> reporter: kim says the situation is too dire and that brisbane "has" to step up "or else." >> we all need to build housing. this just isn't a tenable situation. otherwise we are going to see people getting evicted not just out of san francisco but out of brisbane, as well. >> reporter: the hope is, of course, for some kind of applicable agreement. but if brisbane continues to refuse to cooperate, san francisco could go around them and go to san mateo county to get their way. the hope is to get some kind of an agreement, of course, in the next couple of months. live outside san francisco city hall, susie steimle, kpix 5. threats
