You know what . I didnt experience it, but i hear we could see some showers today. We have our storm impact scale. Were dusting off and we are looking at a few scattered showers. As you look at live doppler seven right now. Thunderstorms to the north and east of us. Its an area of low pressure that will drop down and kind of hug the shoreline. And thats going to keep some instability with us throughout the day. Heres a look at live doppler seven, a few showers right along the coast there by pescadero. So were keeping this a level one on our storm impact scale. So some very light scattered showers, gusty winds, slick roadways, even a chance of a thunderstorm, 60 right now in oakland, it is 59. In santa rosa with all the cloud cover and the breeze overnight, we are much warmer, 4 to 7 degrees warmer. And as we look at our surface, winds breezy, 15 to 18 miles an hour. And from emeryville, you can see dark out there looking at a 704 sunrise. Guys with that scattered shower activity perhaps right on through the day. And those cool numbers only near 70 inland. Gloria, thank you so much, lisa. Developing news, uncertainty at the nations capital. The federal government is just hours away from a potential shutdown this morning. This is a live look from capitol hill. You could see the flags are at half staff to honor senator Dianne Feinstein. The senate put together a bipartisan proposal to avert a shutdown, but House Republicans turned it down on friday night. Abc7 News ReporterTara Campbell tells us how a shutdown would affect the bay area from fleet week to the bay areas beloved national parks. All national parks, they shut down anything. Ill be very upset to Airport Security all poised to be crippled by a Government Shutdown. More worried about getting home. The bill is not passed friday. The house failing to pass a stopgap spending bill, making a Government Shutdown most likely. What is the logical next step . We keep working and make sure make sure we solve this problem. Millions of federal workers potentially losing paychecks, federal food benefits also on the line. We are most concerned about how this shutdown can impact low income people who rely on government benefits, government offices to be available. You know, this is going to really harm them. Tracy weatherby is with Second Harvest of Silicon Valley , one of the bay areas biggest food banks. And she says theyve been preparing for a shutdown.

We have really worked to ensure that well have Resources Available so that people can get groceries and that basic food support that they need to survive. Warning if a shutdown does drag on, they could have a problem keeping up. Im hoping the whole congress will Work Together to avert this completely unnecessary crisis for low income people. But east bay congressman Mark Desaulnier is losing hope. When asked if hes optimistic about getting a deal done, he was quite clear not after today. I was surprised by how many republicans voted against a bill that was completely unacceptable to us. And the congressman isnt mincing words about the impact it will be become more disastrous over time. But people will feel the effects of it and theyll feel it reasonably quickly. Now, lawmakers have until 9 p. M. Our time to come to an agreement on some sort of spending bill. If they dont get it done, it will mark the fourth shutdown in the past decade. Turning now to the bay area and American Icon being remembered this morning. Dianne feinstein served 31 years in congress. Her legacy goes beyond paving a pathway for women in politics and her place on the senates judiciary committee. It all started right here in the bay area as she rose through the ranks of San Francisco politics. As you can imagine, the tributes have been pouring in since senator feinsteins passing. Abc7 News Reporter tim jones hears from local and National Political leaders about her legacy. Almost immediately after news broke of the passing of senator Dianne Feinstein, tributes began pouring in from her Congressional Colleagues in washington, d. C. I do so, as i say personally as a friend, neighbor and fellow san franciscan. All of us do so with great pride as the great senator she has been to our state to here in San Francisco. It was more than close to her heart. She stayed on top of San Francisco. Go through the personal contacts, personal relationships, and her regular return to the city. Many say feinsteins legacy of advocacy and breaking glass ceilings will live on. She was the first female president of the San Francisco board of supervisors was during that time that she led the city through the assassinations of then mayor George Moscone and supervisor harvey milk. She then went on to become mayor of the city herself. Again the first woman to have the role. She stepped up. She led with courage. She worked hard for this city. She was a beacon of hope and inspiration during a very dark and tragic time, she ultimately became a california senator in 1992, a position she was planning on retiring from in 2025. Its because of her long history of Public Service that many felt compelled to lay flowers outside of her Pacific Heights home. I thought id come by and pay my respects, but probably come by and put my photo with her. You know, i have a photo with her and some flowers. Beyond being a trailblazer for women in politics, those who knew her say feinstein was also a leader for jewish americans. She would talk about how much she cared about her jewish identity, how much she cared about this synagogue and being a proud member of it. She would attend for the high holidays and other services and have life cycle events here for her family. Feinstein was a member of congregation emanuel in San Francisco outside of the temple friday evening. Several people took time to tell us how much shell be missed there. One mourner describing feinstein as a cherished and irreplaceable part of the community. I came in here to say kaddish. I came to say, and probably id expect a lot of people will be here to say kaddish for her. And if you would like to pay your respects to senator feinstein, theres a condolence book at San Francisco city hall that you can sign. Were told the flags there at city hall will remain at half staff until tomorrow. In her honor, feinsteins passing leaves an empty seat in the senate. The spotlight is already on governor gavin newsom, who will decide who to fill the seat with. Governor newsom has said he wants an interim caretaker to hold it until next years election. Hes also promised to select a black woman. Some of the names that have risen to the forefront have been shirley weber, who was appointed to replace alex padilla as the secretary of state. We also have malia cohen, whos also been mentioned, and she is currently our state comptroller. And holly mitchell, whos worked with the Newsom Campaign previously. And shes a current la county supervisor. San francisco mayor, london breed is another name being suggested for the now vacant seat. And were also hearing from people who worked alongside senator feinstein. One thing weve learned is she was not only a colleague and a friend, she was also a matchmaker. Former california senator Barbara Boxer was there at the start. She made history with senator feinstein when they came into the senate in 1992. The duo sometimes referred to as the thelma and louise of the senate, served together for 24 years. Senator feinstein was also credited with helping others find love. Also love to fix people up on dates and took great credit for a few marriages that happened and she was always searching around.
