earlier in the week. if you are heading to grandma's house, we are talk about lots of sunshine and low 70s. right now however heading out cold conditions. no longer dealing with your morning lows. santa rosa now at 44 degrees. we gained a few there. 50s leaving the house in san jose. 56 in downtown san francisco. future cast 4 shows we will show warmer weather by later in the afternoon. and we will maintain dry weather. satellite and radar shows we are under mainly clear conditions. high pressure building in. we do have the component of offshore winds. that will only increase our

64 in redwood city. we are talking mild conditions in the east bay. pittsburgh -- pittsburg 64, 65 for pleasanton. downtown san francisco today a high of 64 degrees. we will maintain sunny and dry

barack obama defended his decision to use executive authority to enact changes to the u.s. immigration system this morning. joining us now is political analyst michael yanki with more on this move. let's recap the changes that obama is wanting to make. what is the biggest sticking points? >> the big changes, he's giving what is called deferred action. he is suspending deportation for a total of three years at a time to two new groups of undocumented immigrants. first group are parents of children who are american citizens. or permanent residents. and second he's taken the age limit off the dreamers. children that were brought here by their parents as undocumented immigrants. it was cut off at 31 years, now there is no age limit to that. the potential is maybe -- but the question is really how many of those are really going to apply. for the first program in 2012. for the first group of children that were brought here. maybe 50-60% of those eligible apply. there is a reason behind that. the reason is that when you do that, you are essentially turning yourself into the government. you have put yourself on a list to say i came here illegally and now because i meet these certain conditions, i will apply to getth three year stay of deportation. >> so who does this nod include? what groups are excluded? >> right. i think the biggest group that you heard a lot about are the parents of the dreamers. the kids that were brought here illegally and their parents who are also here were not covered by the order despite a lot of pressure by a lot of folks from the latino community because the idea of family union or preventing family break up was the purpose behind this entire procedure. that is not going to happen. what you will hear a lot is the word discretion. that is the president as the head executive of the country has the ability to decide who rewants to deport. what he is essentially saying is i'm using my discretion to excuse one group of category for a three-year period and the other he's not going to. i think they say hay have this memo from the legal council and justice department to say he can't do an executive order upon an executive order. quite frankly i don't buy that. >> big bold move by the president. what do you think are the likelihood of republican retaliation? >> well, it's a question on what kind of retaliation the republicans will take? because this is a very big political issue. this is very important to the latino community for coming up already on the 2016 election where latinos were critical in the election of barack obama. so you will see a lot of noise and screaming. i don't think you will see the republicans in congress there trying to take specific action against the president. what they will do is go to the courts. they will hope by making the courts be the bad person, they can wash their hands of it and say it really wasn't my fault. it was the courts who blocked the president from doing it and try to spare themselves of the political fall out. whether or not that is believable, i don't know. they will probably look at things by blocking appointments, cutting as priorities and spending in other areas. >> obama care maybe? >> i think obama care is up for the supreme court again. i don't know if -- they may try another run at obama care but it will be ticky tack stuff you don't necessarily see but they will -- the president will understand his retaliation. so his nominations may get held up for a year. specific program that the president cares about may find itself defunded. when it applies to the immigrants but other types of priorities. there will be other things you will see all along and it will be coached in the terms of retaliation. >> and what do you think the impact could be here in california and also the bay area? >> it depends on how it effects the community. i think in terms of the practicalities. for example at the beginning of the year undocumented immigrants will be eligible for driver's licenses in california. so that is already happening. anyone covered by this is now eligible for health care or bo ma care, social security, federal benefits. whatever. but a lot of them are covered by health plans in the bay area by healthy san francisco. alameda, the bay area, etc.. in terms of the burden of local government, not so much. in terms of what it means to a community to not have to worry about their parents or their families being broken up or deported or the fact that you are at a workplace and one phone call and you are out of the country. that is a big, big change. >> thank you for joining us. we'll talk with you again the next hour. more about the ferguson trial taking place in missouri. more details on that coming up as well. time now is is

>> the first thing you can expect to see that you will not see anywhere else is snow. we have brought snow to clayton in the form of some very interesting special effects that put snow on the ground and snow in the air and what we have for you is kind of a whole new world that you can enter. so we have 60,000 christmas lights and we have projection and water fountain and all sinked to a 20 minute light show. and so we've got our character snowball and flurry. and the families that come see this will be able to really leave contra costa and enter our make believe land of our two acre property. >> well 60,000 lights. what is the electricity bill like? i can't imagine. >> you know it's 100% led. we are set up to run 100-amps of power if we need to. >> how did you get this idea to do this really big, big christmas light display? >> well, when i was in college i spent most of my time at disney land. and the inspiration really came from this little girl which is is what our charity is about. i have a background in theater and lighting and film so i wanted to take the skills and put it to a good cause because i wanted to do something for the families to be able to come and enjoy but we also have this little girl that needed a lot of help. and we found that we could do an out reach with those skills. >> tell me about katie. >> katie grace is i believe she just turned 12. we met her when she was 6 years old. she has pulmonary hyper tension. very rare heart and lung disease. very difficult to treat. and the only treatment of any listening long-term value is a transplant. transplant is not a cure within itself. it is more of a disease for a disease. ultimately we knew her for half a decade when she wasn't supposed to live each year. what we did is we are going to do this christmas display to bring outreach to her. and so that is what we did. and by the grace of god i think in june she finally got herhearted and lungs. so it's been really good. >> that is wonderful. and this is a peek of what you did last year. >> actually this is exclusive video for this year. this is all brand new. last year we put up lights and they danced to music. this year it is really to reference disney kind of microfantastic. we have a story line, a 20 minute show. it's not a drive up where you can come at any time. there is specific show times because you want to be there for the beginning, middle, end. because it's an emissional jersey. >> and then the great thing too is the display is for sale or parts of it; right? >> yes. >> and all goes toward katie and supporting her and her family. >> exactly. the display to come and see it is free. to make it snow on you it costs $0.25. people would come in and say this is really cool, i haven't seen lights like these anywhere else, can i take them home? last year it wasn't an option. this year i essentially purchased extra and said these lights if you want to come and you see something you really like, you can actually take it home that day in what we call katie's trading post which is a reference to frozen. this whole show is inspired by frozen which is a lot of fun. but you can purchase most, not everything, but most of the lights you see you can take home that day. >> and tell me about some of the behind the scenes work that goes into this. i mean you are stringing up thousands of thousands of lights and decorations. what sort of manpower is behind this project? >> there is about 50-60 people in total that have come to help. a lot of volunteers have come from volunteereastbay.org. and then i have a core team of people i work with. i started official design of this back in may. i have clocked something like 300 hours. and then i reverse my sleep schedule and live in a tent outside. it's been aned a vaneture. >> come to my house and help me with mine. i just want to put lights up. >> it's fun. it's a lot of fun. it's been about 50-60 people and then this year we have volunteers on site every day and we don't even have them all signed up yet. it will be a couple hundred people have worked on this. >> and you guys are also going to be donating to is it children's organ transplant association? >> yes. the finances we bring in if you choose to donate while on site or online, the finances go through the katie grace fund. and the way that works is the money that goes through there gets ports to katie grace. and if she doesn't need that anymore, then the finances go to another family in need. that is why we chose that charity because it jumps around as necessary.

teenager michael brown. michael, why are we still waiting for the grand jury? >> there is a couple factors that go into it. first it's an officer involved shooting. and stats show when there is an officer involved, grand juries take a little bit longer. somewhere around 3-4 months. this is out of the ordinary for that. second is that this is a grand jury that requires 75% of consensus of the folks to nine out of 12 to make it -- to make a decision to bring forth what is called a true bill. that and a lot of other jurisdictions it takes a majority. third and this is the most controversial is that the prosecuting attorney bob mccullough who gained a lot of notoriety early on because of the attempts by members of the -- to ask him to qualify himself because his father was police officer killed in the line of duty. because he himself has had a spotty record in terms of prosecuting officers in the past. he's decided to do something entirely different. you have often heard the theory that a grand jury can indict a hand sandwich. it comes from the fact that the prosecutor and grand jury. the prosecutor only presents a certain amount of evidence that is favorable to what he wants to do in terms of the charge and that is how an indictment comes down. this is very different. mccullough has decided he will bring everyone before the grand jury. everybody. he let darren wilson the officer testify. he's let every witness that could possibly identify testify. he has not cherry picked which ones he wants to bring. he's even allowed the expert who did the autopsy for michael brown's parents to come in. he hasn't directed them as to what he wants them to do. he has given them the range of charges they can look at. but he is not prosecuting within the context of getting an indictment. in many ways it's a mini trial and that is very, very different. >> and so what are some of the options before the grand jury? >> i think basically they have everything from first degree murder which would be very, very hard to prove to second degree murder which is delivering an intent to kill. to involuntary manslaughter to -- to voluntary manslaughter to involuntary manslaughter. for example in the grand jury proceeding for shrimp boy and le land yee you have not heard anything. hear you have been hearing leaks. there has been a lot of testimony that has come out. a lot of officers have been speaking on and off the records to reporters. there is a -- one of the things that is bothering the community person is the lack of integrity they see in the entire grand jury proceeding. the unusual nature of how it's being conducted. that is why you see all of the unrest and that is why you see people getting very nervous. a journalist just got arrested in ferguson for allegedly breaking some peaceful demonstration law. the government already declared a state of emergency. even though no emergency exists. there is all of this cry shown doe of i don't know anticipation, awareness, nervusness, fear. >> they are getting ready for the potential fallout from whatever they do decide. so tell us a little bit about the grand jury i understand it reflects the community that they are in. >> yeah. it's six white men, three white women, two african american women, one african american male. again nine of them have to agree in order to make -- to bring forth any kind of charge. their term has been extended. it has been extended again. usually around 60 days. it has been given the maximum of four months. it can go until december if need be. everyone is convinced they would bring an indictment down last week or at least a decision down last week. no one knows what is going to happen. we to know, now know, the parents of michael brown have been told they will be told first. now they have been told whether that means two minutes before the press conference begins, a day before, as soon as the grand jury reaches a decision. no one know what is that is. and govern nixon hasn't helped much saying we need 48 hours to prepare. the fact is with so many leaks in this process, once the decision that they make is made, it will get out there and then stuff is going to happen one way or another. >> and the grand jury doesn't indict is it over? >> it can be over. you can always convene a new grand jury. in this case i have no idea what will happen. likelihood of a civil rights is minimal. you have to show they had a racial discrimination. it all depends on what the grand jury does this time. >> thanks for joining us. we're back with more including national news after this break. my grandson's got this blankie that gets filthy but he's got such sensitive skin that you worry about what you use in the laundry so i use new tide pods free

spring of 2015. yesterday was the fist day of st. anthony's annual turkey drive in san francisco. every year st. anthony's serves thousands of meals on thanksgiving. it's all possible thanks to turkey

[ laughter ] >> and it will keep them warm this holiday season. they plan to make the tree sweater project an annual event. the town of redding pennsylvania has a christmas tree and it's quite a site. a site they don't really want to see though. they already had a lighting ceremony but they might have to have another one. residents were complaining that this tree is just too ugly. it's a 50-foot spruce and it looks like it has to be replaced. the city council president is raising money to buy and decorate a more impressive tree for the holidays. officials hope to have a duo over tree lighting next weekend. we're enjoying lots of sunshine. there is a live look from mt. tam. full details. plus i'll talk about the holiday week when we return. good morning. and thanks for spending your morning with cron crop 4 news weekend -- with kron 4 news weekend. if you are heading out right now temperatures are not as cold. we started the morning off in the 40s. it looks like we have warmed things up into the 50s. san francisco pretty close to 60. we are high and dry around the bay area. we also have the edition of -- addition of offshore wind. that will keep any moisture out of the bay area. temperatures will only increase as we head into the next couple of days. today will be on the mild side. future cast shows 60s blanketing the area by lunchtime. temperatures will increase as we head into -- 65 in fremont. 64 your high in half-moon bay. remember last week we did see a series of storms ahead to our area. we did see some impressive rainfall amounts. we saw over an inch in san francisco. inch and a half for oakland. but honestly not too much accumulated in the south bay. sunnyvale did pick up a quarter of an inch. we did have an opportunity to bring wet weather around the bay area and increase those totals. the good news is thanksgiving will be dry. temperatures in the low 70s for thursday. but wet weather back in the forecast as we head into next weekend. one of the busiest shopping days of the year is coming up but not every black friday deal is a good one. black friday can cost you big time and bust your holiday budget. financial professional safety turner from turner advance financial is here with more on what shoppers should know. i'm not going to call you scrooge because you were telling me you can't buy too much for yourself. >> shopping for the holidays is not difficult. but it is easy to track. and what i'm recommending is that people just try to avoid the following four blenders. just so we can stay on track and have more money for themselves. >> so what is the first one? >> well buying to save is something you definitely want to avoid. >> i do that all the time. >> i say look i save more. you need a list. you need a budget i guess. that word often scares people. and how much you are going to spend on that. you can get one at my website turneraf.com. when you see half off, you look at your list and say oh no i need one sweater not two. >> isn't it good to buy what is on sale? >> well, you know it can be. >> okay. what is number two? >> signing up for store credit. and what i mean for that is you go in buy your purchase and do yo want to sign up for store credit we will give you 15% off. it sounds attractive but what you are signing up for an apr of 23%. unless you are going to pay that balance off 100% in full each month then it's a really bad idea. and 40% of americans do carry a credit card balance. >> and it gets really hard and tempting especially during the holidays to start charging things on the credit card. >> exactly. >> and number three gifting to yourself. >> yes. that is really fun. as we were talking about. you go to the store and one for them, one for me. and then it makes a great day. but the average american does spend $130 on black friday for themselves and this is a fantastic way to bust the budget as you might guess. >> even if i'm saving money. >> yes. [ laughter ] you are basically going over budget and that means you are most likely putting it on some sort of credit card. which comes to back to bite you later. >> so you just need to stick to the list and not veer off the list. what is number four? >> number four is that you need to not use mental notes. so in other words this budget is only as good as the paper it's written on. so you just have to have this thing with you and you have to not only include -- you start with the people that you want to buy gifts for, but then don't forget to add the drinks and the food for your party and for decorations, etc.. add all of that. if you have receipts from the prior year which i most people are not going to. you can put them online sames if you put them on a credit card. and use those. but at least you want to print off this budget that you used this year so you have it for next year so you have an easier start. >> how do you go about budgeting what you think is reasonable for the family holiday presents list? >> that is really tough. it certainly depends on your income. but i think that you really need to look at your whole budget. hopefully you have one. if not, that is not too hard either and i can help anyone that wants help with that. of course just making a budget. so it is sort of got to fit into your annual budget. >> okay. all right. but some people at home might be watching we've got a list but once in awhile you do come across amazing black friday deals. you're not saying not to shop at all on black friday; right? >> that is right. just make conscious decisions so you have the budget as your shield against all of the marketing that is coming at you so that you are in control and not the corporations are trying to get you to buy more. >> all right, thank so much. anything else we should know? >> well, the main reason i want to emphasize why this is so important, the av does spend about $400 on black friday. of course in this area it will be much higher than that. . this isn't in your budget, then where is this money coming from? then the short answer is probably a credit card. your $400 purchase is an $800 purchase. so ha is really why it's important. >> and hopefully it's not on a store retail credit card. >> that is right. >> stacy turner thank you so much for joining us. you can get more information on our website also you can go to his website which was? >> turneraf.com. >> we're back with more after this break. great show for you this sunday night as we break down the 49ers key matchup with washington. plus what is next for the raiders on the heels of their first win of the season. and he may be the most improved player in the nba, we will sit down with dramon green of the red hot warriors. >> and recapping some of our big stories. chp is reporting alcohol likely played a factor in a double fatality earlier this morning. just after midnight they received reports of a driver traveling the wrong way on highway 101 near the san antonio road onramp. the driver was heading north in the southbound lane when he crashed head on into another vehicle instantly killing the driver and seriously injuring the passenger. the woman passenger was taken to the hospital but no word on her condition this morning. the identities of both male drivers have not yet been released. plus coming off of two road wins the san francisco 49ers are back home today to take on the washington redskins at levi stadium this afternoon. but today's niner game doesn't come without controversy. protestors will be outside this morning. they are marching and rallying at levi stadium to demand respectful presentation of native americans over the last several years there has been a debate over whether the washington redskins should change their name and mascot. the rally is beginning in five minutes. it's already under way according to mike pelton. a man in san francisco is wanted in connection with an attempted sexual assault on a child yesterday in pacific heights investigators released this sketch of the alleged suspect. he is described as a caucasian man between 30-40 years old. police say he was last scene wearing an orange hooded sweat with gray and black letters before he ran off. the incident happened inside of a public bathroom at lafayette park in pacific heights. and that is the sketch there. take a good look and call san francisco police if you have any information. >> and get a close lack at this fish. isn't he interesting looking?
