dozen flights have been cancelled to the local airports and maybe more in the next 24 hours. nationwide, it's a mess. more than 2,000 flights have been cancelled, stranding thousands of passengers, snow, freezing rain and sleet is to blame. seems like we've been doing this every few weeks for the last couple months. states from new jersey to north carolina have declared a state of emergency. atlanta, city paralyzed by the last storm a couple weeks ago planned ahead this time. emergency vehicles are on stand by and early warnings led to empty streets during rush hour. >> let's check in with our meteorologist, jeff ra -- ranieri. >> its been with us for over a week and continuing to produce rainfall to the north. eventually, we do think we'll get a slight chance for action. we'll take a look outside the sky camera network. temperatures in the 50s through san francisco and the north bay and a slight chance of showers in those locations, otherwise remains over cast with mid 50s. let's take you into that forecast for tomorrow. thursday is almost here. i can feel it. all right. let's get a look. what you'll find here as we do expect sun to build into the forecast for the south bay and east bay. likely cloudy here throughout san francisco and the north bay. that will be the best possibility of where we have showers in the forecast. so let's go ahead and get a look at that rain timeline. again, the way this storm is moving in, it will break up before it gets close to us. so tonight throughout thursday, it's mainly about the north bay to see that possibility of showers. santa rosa will have the greatest chance but you can see as we head throughout the early hours, it will go on and off between periods of showers and clouds and the best guess is by 5:00, 6:00, 7:00 in the morning, drizzle with clouds and temperatures in the upper 40s to near 50. that basically means in the south bay, we have little to no chance of picking up ain any kind of rainfall at this point from this storm system. but we all have a better chance of getting rainfall here in the bay area as we head throughout this upcoming weekend, the storm lines to the north and it looks like by the overnight hours, 3:00, 4:00 and 5:00 on sunday morning we'll start to see showers move in across the bay. we'll have details how much some of this green could mean on the radar coming up later on, you guys. >> thank you, jeff. up next, the newest travel perk for a select group of tech workers. >> and last night the white house, today the bay area. why france's president paid a visit here today and

their search for sierra. that's coming up. this is the search we told you about, a search for evidence south bay authorities say wasn't happening. tonight nbc bay area not only gets confirmation but reaffirmation the search for sierra lamar isn't over. one day after a grand jury indicted torrez for the disappearance and murder of sierra lamar, the santa clara sheriff's department is making an admission saying that what the department last week called a training exercise was as we reported indeed a search for sierra lamar. damian trujillo is live at the hall of justice where torrez will face a new murder charge tomorrow for that special grand jury indictment. >> reporter: that's right, jessica. the divers themselves told me a week ago today and the sheriffs' spokesmen told me my sources were wrong, they were training. it turned out my sources were correct as the case against torrez was put on the fast track. he's walked into court for almost two years charged with killing 15-year-old sierra lamar but never entering a plea in that time. >> it's languished for awhile. i'm not happy but i hope it will speed it up. >> reporter: talking about the grand jury indictment of torrez which will eliminate a lengthy preliminary hearing. instead the prosecutor will ask the judge to set a trial date. >> the grand jury said there is enough evidence to take this case to a trial. that does not mean this case can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and that's the key at a jury trial. >> reporter: legal analyst stephen clark says prosecutors need to find sierra lamar's body to seal the case. our cameras caught divers looking for evidence last week at hidden farm lake in morgan hills. the sheriff's office said they were not looking for evidence but rather training. tonight, an admission from the sheriff. >> any time someone calls, we will followup on it. so we were out there. we were acting on a tip, and it was also really, really great training for the dive team. >> reporter: divers were using this new state of the art sonar that can detect a body. they said torrez used to fish at hidden farm lake which is a half mile from his mother's home but sheriffs said divers found nothing that day and will continue their search across the country. >> we continually look for sierra. we will react again to public information about where we should search. we would like to find sierra. >> reporter: a search that's lasted nearly two years with in sign of the 15-year-old. i spoke with the search volunteer organizer earlier today. she says every saturday they still get together about 25 of them and go out and search for sierra. that will continue again this coming saturday. also, she told me tomorrow at the arraignment here at the hall of justice expect a lot of

acquisitions of fake expensive, improper payments, the transit district in charge of buses and caltrain is under fire again for how its handling public money. >> we uncovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in errors last summer. tonight we find more money problems exposing a so-called second set of books at this agency. >> reporter: jess and raj, they sent over stacks of financial documents but it's what they didn't provide that's troubling, invoices, checks and backup for a list of expenses all missing. now we've uncovered the documents former employees say were used to hide how the district spent millions of your dollars. we went to the person in charge of the money to ask why. just wondering if we could ask you questions about the numbers. gigi is in charge of budgets for the buses and caltrain. why won't you answer these questions how you're spending public dollars, ma'am? we caught up with her before a public meeting. we wanted to ask about a second set of books used to create fake and inflated expenses. in september, we asked her boss about hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments made to consultants for insurance. errors the district first denied then called honest mistakes. you insist it's a mistake when the people who made these entries were told to do so? >> absolutely. >> reporter: you say this is intentional? >> yes. >> reporter: david ramirez was an accountant from 2001 to 2012 and says he quit after getting fed up with finance managers ordering him to log fake expenses and to inflate others. he says the district kept this second set of books to keep track of the money. >> so this is where the money really went? >> really is going. >> we're talking millions now. >> reporter: he says this allowed finance leaders to hide millions so they could later spend that money at their discretion and avoid public scrutiny. >> this is something the auditors never saw? >> no. >> reporter: he said the money went into secret buckets for the ceo and cfo. we filed a record's request asking to see invoices and checks for a list of expenses from 2011. while sam tran said it spent $50,000 in public funds and countless staff hours on our request, the district could not provide invoices or checks for expenses ramirez listed as fake or inflated and included a $118,000 expense for maze and associates, that's the aud kiting firm contracted to catch these mistakes. >> they did do additional testing on questions raised. >> reporter: in november, the cfo told board members not to worry. >> they verbally reported that everything is fine. >> reporter: sam tran insist audits have come back clean but after the first report, auditors took a second look where we found errors. this time, they did to. in a sample maze found more than a million dollars in expenses inflated by staff but did not deem the amount large enough to address. forensic auditor eugene has more than 30 years of accounting experience, 25 in government accounting. he reviewed sam tran's resports and responses. are those proper accounting procedures? >> if that is occurring, i would question whether it is proper. >> reporter: in a statement sam trans says the actions are appropriate and consistent with past practice and blamed inflated expenses on ramirez, calling it actionen taken unilaterally by an employee. >> a unilateral action shouldn't be possible in a big organization like this. >> i would be happy to have my chief financial officer go on air and on camera and explain if there was a mistake. >> reporter: when he asked the cfo to explain, the district said it would have no further comment. we asked you to sit down and explain how you're handling public dollars, will you sit down with us? meanwhile, sam trans silence speaks volumes he says. >> if these numbers are going out to the public and they cannot stand by them, there is something wrong. >> reporter: many questions remain about where this money went. the san mateo county launched a report in september. that's still on going. we posted a detailed break down of the expenses showing what sam trans reported compared to what the district provided evidence for. vicky nguyen, nbc bay

whispers it, but when your family will, just give you that one little hey, take it easy, it's effective. >> what about your sons, they say hey dad we really want to get real competitive and go on the olympic path? >> that's tough. that's not a question i'm prepared to answer at this point with regards to my kids wanting to go down that path. i mean, it's -- i don't want to be hypocritical, but it's like i know too much already. it's like i'm jaded. i'll try to do what i felt i did, which is kind of hedge a little bit, you know, if you can like cover your bases at least early on and make sure that you at least are thinking about the possibility that it's not going to all be like, you know, rock star. >> one thing we haven't talked about in your career and now we would ask football players this is concussions in your sport and you personally. >> sure. >> how many did you suffer and is there something to be done to correct this? >> one of the reasons i stopped skiing, stopped competing, i had a variety of different kind of little ones but i definitely, the conclusions scared me the most. >> do you feel any impact now? >> i don't. i don't. i can't -- i couldn't tell. i don't. i really don't feel any symptoms. you feel them like right after you have them, you know, depending on how hard you rung your bell and what's interesting is we -- people -- i had a helmet on every concussion i had, too. so they don't stop you from ringing your bell inside your head. >> what's a big party night for you guys now? >> yeah, exactly. it's amazing how the definition of a party changes as you get married and have kids. a big night for us is to be able to like watch a niners game or giants game unabaded. that's huge. >> johnny most lee in bed by 10:00 p.m. nowadays. he's in sochi working for us as a commentator for ski events. >> very fun. >> all right. let's turn things over to jeff ranieri. >> we have rainfall we're tracking over the next three to four days here in the forecast, the stream of subtropical moisture is still hanging with us. the same area of wet weather that produced flooding rains this past weekend and we do think we'll get some to come our way. live radar, you can see most of it happening well to the north bone dry but again, increasing chances here of maybe a few showers tonight and also tomorrow morning. taking you to the live sky camera network, temperatures in the 50s, just a touch of humidity out there or you can feel from that subtropical most. currently 52 and the wind is on shore five to ten miles per hour and you can see the low-level moisture present on the camera. that's a sign that we will at least have that fog tonight at the coastline and north bay and areas of drizzle. as far as getting measurable rainfall down here throughout the next 24 hours, tough. the storm doors kind of cracked open at this point as we've been mentioning. so as we get a look, we'll see the first one arrive over the next 24 hours and it really is going to keep the bulk of the moisture way off to the north. so at this point, as that cold front gets close, it will break apart, we think the best chance of getting activity will be throughout the north bay possibly down to san francisco, again, for tonight and also into thursday. temperatures will also be cooling off into the row 60s. our better chance of rainfall to come our way will be this weekend. the cold front will sweep across stronger and we'll look at rainfall amounts from 1/10th to 3500ths. who will get the most? we'll get you covered on that. as we flip to the next element, the estimated forecast will show the north bay will have the most, from a quarter of an inch to possibly around .34 and .10 toward san jose. not a large storm, doesn't compare to anything last weekend, but it's something. micro climate forecast, wide-ranging. we will have sunshine by the afternoon inson s san jose. subtropical moisture, heat. likely warmest in morgan hill. s also a mix of micro climate weather here for the north bay, east bay and trivalley. what you will find is the best chance of showers in napa and santa rosa and staying cloudy and walnut creek mostly sunny and 68 and please season ton 68. 2014 sochi olympics continue and on the forecast, sunny, mild, well above average but the next snow is expected by this saturday and sunday. so finally some colder weather for sochi as we head throughout this upcoming weekend. >> they need it. >> yes. let's get to sports. jarrod joins us and he's keeping his eyes on lebron tonight. >> this is going to be a good one, big night at oracle. they have to pull it off short-handed again. let me explain, no andrew and no jermaine o'neil. more on them in a second. in the first matchup between the heat and warriors, seth curry out scored back on january the 2nd in south beach. if the warriors are to repeat another win over the heat, a lot will depend on how andre iguodala matches up tonight against king james. >> lock in a little bit more. you know, you got a tough matchup coming into the game. you know, some things aren't going to go your way. sometimeth a whistle. it's a great test for, you know, just the mental side of the game. you know, being able to bounce back from some situations that may not go your way, how you react and stay focused in the game, you know, how can i attack on the
