They said, we want to know. I think theyre setting a way for the rest of the league to help players. When theyre done, because there is a big transition and buns and lewis helped each other with that transition. All these years after teaming up on the field, theyre now neighbors in the sacramento suburb of lincoln. They both say its important for someone to teach

Morning Hours<\/a>, temperatures are going to stay on the cool side, but well begin to see them bump up a little bit from the upper 50s at about eight 9 00 and then into the low to mid 60s as we go through the
Morning Hours<\/a> into noontime, winds will be out of the north northwest at five. So thats the good news, because elsewhere the winds will be building throughout the day and it is going to be a breezy to windy afternoon soon if you are along the shoreline. And then tonight, those gusts are going to keep up. So looks for a looks for a fantastic morning for that event and the weekend is cooperating. We will be looking at a lot of sunshine and slowly warming temperatures, but we will have those gusty winds at the shoreline keeping temperatures on the cooler side. 48 in sonoma right now it is 44. In danville with low 50s in san mateo, 51 in san jose. And a look outside our exploratorium camera. It will be mostly sunny and milder this weekend. Cool and windy at the beaches now those winds could gust upwards of over 30 to 40 miles an hour, especially as we get into sunday and looking at some patchy fog early on from the peninsula southward. And as we get into next week, warmer. In fact, wednesday thursday looks to be the warmest weather, even the coast warming up just a little bit. So heres a look at those winds even this morning 25 to over 30 miles an hour. And then by the late afternoon, look at how those gusty winds spread into marin, also san mateo and right through the delta. And as we get through the evening hours, they are still quite breezy. That will keep the temperatures from dropping too much and then into sunday afternoon. How about that gust of 40 miles an hour point rays . So probably not a great weekend for the beach. Despite the sunny conditions. This is early this morning. That fog just fades away and well get into more sun. But with those gusty winds, the fog really will get chased away for the most part. In the north coast there from around marin county. But san mateo, some patchy fog. Those gusty winds right on through the weekend. Monday though, were warming up through the mid 70s, so the warm weather will continue as we get through the middle of the week into tuesday. Were in the upper 70s, 70 along the bay shore, even the coast begins to warm up and by wednesday we could see 80 inland upper 60s at the coast. Mid 70s bay shore. So the winds here, upper 50s
Half Moon Bay<\/a>, low to mid 60s,
San Francisco<\/a> and oakland. Thats about average 73. In santa rosa, upper 60s in the south bay. And the accuweather seven day forecast. Bright and breezy today. Sunny and milder for sunday. A warming trend really gets going throughout the middle of next week. We can see highs near 80 there, mid 70s around the bay shore, and that spring warmth continues into the end of the week. Zach. Lisa, thank you. When we return, a physical barrier led to a solution to prostitution on one
San Francisco<\/a> street. But now that barrier is creating more problems. Why . First norman, bad news. I never graduated from med school. What . But the good news is. Xfinity mobile just got even better now, you can automatically connect to wifi speeds up to a gig on the go. Plus, buy one unlimited line and get one free for a year. I gotta get this deal. Thats like 20 a month per unlimited line. I dont want to miss that. Thats amazing doc. Mobile savings are calling. Visit xfinitymobile. Com to learn more. Doc . To keep sex workers off capp street in the
Mission District<\/a> did their job. But as abc seven
News Reporter<\/a> luz pena shows, the cars parked behind the barriers are now the problem. Reporter. These yellow barriers changed. Capp street from a prostitution hotspot to a clean street for me, i think works. And also its much cleaner. Amado gonzalez, owner of balompie cafe, has witnessed the transition. His street has had over the last year. In february of 2023, we broke the news of capp street residents pleading for the city to intervene after alleged sex workers took over their neighborhood. That led to the installation of these barriers to block traffic and illegal activity from 18th to 22nd streets. Is there still prostitution happening here at night . Yes, there is, but very minimal. Very minimal. Yes, they mostly enforce on street. Now the prostitution is no longer a big concern. Illegal parking behind these barriers is leading to new issues in the area. The owner of fox and lion bread sees it happen from her business every day. People park there because its like a good parking spot, but then theyre getting ticketed. People dont like the fact that you can park there, but then youre going to get a ticket. Uh even though theres no park, theres no no parking signs. Fire captain justin shaw is concerned vehicles using the barriers as a parking area are creating a hazard for emergencies. So with the bollards that are installed, fire apparatus and ambulances cannot pass through and drive straight through capp street, were required to go up a block and come back down. The more vehicles there are blocking the roadway, the more difficult it is for us to get emergency vehicles in there. Recently, sfmta announced their ticketing efforts will increase throughout the city regarding capp street, the agency said in part, we have coordinated enforcement in the area, which includes capp street and vehicles who are not in compliance are routinely cited and towed for parking violations. Our abc seven
News Data Team<\/a> found that since around june of 2023, when these barricades were installed, about 1200 parking citations were given out on capp street between 18th and 22nd streets. But residents say those parking tickets are not doing much, with some city workers even asking armadale to intervene. And they come to me and they ask me many times that i can never be a policeman for them, but i cannot do that. For many, these barriers are an answer to their plea. But now, as a fire is asking drivers to move, we need to be able to get through. What happens if we cant get through . In
San Francisco<\/a>, lou pena, abc seven news. In our next half hour on abc seven mornings, activists may be to blame for spreading avian flu in

Over 70 tornadoes reported across at least five states, leaving residents in the midwest devastated. Good morning to you. And thank you for being with us this half hour. Were going to get to the latest on that storm. But first, lets bring in meteorologist lisa argen. So tragic to see what theyre going through, lisa. But thankfully here in the bay area we are seeing a different picture. We are. And you know, spring certainly has brought some unusual weather back home where weve had the temperature swings and its been a cool week. Right now we are looking at numbers in the upper 40s with patchy fog along the coast, 50 two
Half Moon Bay<\/a>, 48, in oakland and up in the north bay. Its chilly, with 43. In santa rosa. Napa is at 44 as well as mill valley, so that brings us anywhere from 2 to 10 degrees colder. This morning. As we go through the
Morning Hours<\/a>, well have that patchy fog from the peninsula, and then by the late
Morning Hours<\/a> into the early afternoon, temperatures beginning to climb through the 60s. And by two 3 00 were in the low 70s in our inland valleys, a few clouds in the north bay. And then the fog sets up again at the peninsula for a windy night. Tonight well talk about when its going to get warmer and the extended outlook for may as we round out april last weekend of april tomorrow. Zach. Lisa thank you. Well see you shortly. This morning, 20 million americans from texas to iowa are on alert for tornadoes, hail and damaging winds. At least 70 tornadoes hit five states yesterday, ripping through homes as nebraska saw some of the worst damage. Several people were hurt, but there are no reports of any deaths. One woman from omaha describes the moment she rushed her kids to safety while a tornado hit her neighborhood. I got my babies in the basement. We covered up with a blanket. We got our dog down there. All of a sudden the lights went out and we heard everything being thrown around above us. And it was. It was so scary. It was so scary. I this weekend, the severe storms could reach as far north as illinois, wisconsin and michigan. While developing news the first week of former president
Donald Trumps<\/a> first criminal trial is over. Abc
News Reporter<\/a> darya abinger has the testimony from three key witnesses, a part of trumps life before his presidency, following a full week of testimony, the jury and
Donald Trumps<\/a> hush money trial will have a three day weekend to reflect. Friday afternoon, trumps former personal assistant, rhona graff took the stand. She was one of his longest serving employees hired back in 1987, admitting she had a vague recollection of spotting
Stormy Daniels<\/a> in trump tower. Graff considered trumps gatekeeper, said she was responsible for updating the
Company Contact<\/a> list. Trump denies he had an affair with daniels, but prosecutors say she was paid 130,000 to keep quiet before the 2016 election, and trump illegally falsified
Business Records<\/a> to cover it up. Graff also testified she entered
Contact Information<\/a> for karen mcdougal, a former playboy model who claims she had a year long affair with trump. Trump denies the affair, but david pecker, former publisher for the national enquirer, testified that at trumps direction, the tabloid bought mcdougals story but never ran it. In order to protect trumps political campaign, pecker also took the stand, answering questions about a conspiracy to catch and kill news stories that could be damaging to trump. When he ran for president , the defense, claiming the
National Enquirers<\/a> relationship with trump was
Standard Operating Procedure<\/a> in the tabloid industry day nine of trumps trial resumes next tuesday. Darya aldinger, abc
News New York<\/a> and new developments x hollywood mogul harvey weinstein, whose 2020 rape conviction was overturned, is set to appear in a new york courtroom next week. Weinstein is scheduled to appear wednesday in manhattan supreme court. His court date is the
First Step Towards<\/a> a retrial. The
District Attorneys Office<\/a> says theyre willing to retry the case if the witnesses are willing to participate. Weinstein remains in prison for a 2022 rape conviction in a los angeles case. The
Biden Administration<\/a> is postponing a proposed ban on menthol cigarets indefinitely. It says it will take more time to consider feedback, including from civil rights groups. Studies have shown the menthol market primarily targets black communities. Experts say the white houses pause could be an attempt to avoid backlash ahead of the election. Could
Animal Rights<\/a> activists be responsible for spreading avian flu at
Sonoma County<\/a>
Poultry Farms<\/a> . A new investigation by the state department of food and agriculture finds that is a possibility, the activists tell us. Regulators are trying to divert blame away from problems inherent in the poultry industry. Heres the iteams dan noyes. Animal rights activists have targeted
Sonoma County<\/a>s chicken and duck farms for years. This is an iteam report with undercover video from an activist who got a job at reichert duck farm in 2014. The things i saw were just absolutely horrifying, and they they still haunt me to this day. Now, a report from the
California Department<\/a> of food and agriculture says its plausible that activists spread avian flu during
Security Breaches<\/a> inside the duck barns on october 24th and november 14th of last year. Bill mattis of the
California Poultry Federation<\/a> tells me. The avian flu outbreak was devastating for the poultry industry in
Sonoma County<\/a>. More than 250,000 chickens and ducks were killed. When you have a depopulation of a ranch because of bird flu, the ranch is disinfected and cleaned and then its got to stay empty for a while for it to make sure its not doesnt have any more diseases. So that farmer is out a few months of actually work, in come the activists from direct action everywhere posted video from the farms last fall. We have gone back to sunrise and reichert and we have documented more criminal animal cruelty, and we have saved several more lives, including elsie and river. Now they say poultry producers and state regulators are blaming them for shortcomings in the industry. Theyre trying to deflect blame onto the whistleblowers so that people dont look at the reality of the situation, which is that factory farming is a recipe for disaster when it comes to public health. The state report also raises concerns about biosecurity, different farms, sharing personnel and equipment. And it says the avian flu most probably came from wild birds and that the wind can spread it across different farms. And one of the things that i think is important to note is that these animals in these facilities are so sick. We have documented extensive diseases that they have that makes them incredibly vulnerable to any sort of pathogen. The trespassing in an animal, a place that does business and tries to raise animals really hurts the industry, but it also hurts the consumer for the iteam. Dan noyes, abc seven news now, several of the activists have been prosecuted for trespassing. They say theyll continue to do whatever it takes to share their perspective. All right. We still have a lot more ahead on abc. Seven mornings, you get a panda, you get a panda, you get a panda. Its not just
San Francisco<\/a> anymore. China makes it official with the san diego zoo. How that facility will change to help accommodate the animals. And heres a live look this morning at the bay bridge.

We could look at this all day, but we have so much news to get to you and this is positive news too. Thats new this morning. Its official china signed an agreement to send two giant pandas to the san diego zoo. China
Officials Say<\/a> the goal is to start a
Ten Year International<\/a> giant panda conservation cooperation. The two pandas are male and female. And before theyre sent to the u. S, the zoo is renovating and upgrading the enclosures to create a larger living space for the pandas. China originally announced it would send pandas to the zoo in february. San francisco based williamssonoma will pay a record 3 million fine for falsely claiming some of its products were made in the usa. The payment by the
Home Products<\/a> company will settle a lawsuit filed by the federal trade commission in 2020, the ftc issued a statement saying williamssonoma misled consumers and harmed american businesses. The product line sold under the gold touch rejuvenation and pottery barn teens and kids brands were made in china, not the u. S, while millions of current and former customers of
Kaiser Permanente<\/a> may be victims of a data breach, according to techcrunch, a

Ricky Pierson<\/a> was brandon uks teammate at
Arizona State<\/a> back in 2019. How long theyre actually teammates with the 40 niners remains to be seen. The niners introducing their first round draft pick, knowing that selecting a receiver would send the rumors into overdrive. Pearsall, six one, 190. He is fearless, terrific against man coverage. So does his arrival mean the exit for aiyuk or deebo samuel will see the niners say they even entertain any trades on friday involving their two star receivers. For now, pearsall still cant believe hes a 40 niner. Words cant really describe my feelings right now, man, you know im it hasnt hit. It hasnt hit yet, just trying to soak it all in. Like i said, man, trying to be where my feet are at. Obviously, this is a legendary program, and i just appreciate the entire organization taking a chance on me, man. And, you know, im gonna prove them right. Somebody i watched a lot with brandon aiyuk. So he was my teammate. You know, i got to watch him freshman year, and it just felt like every time he touched the ball or was throwing his way, he was taking it to the house. So, you know, watching i do like that really helped me. You know, seeing, you know, what it takes to get to that next level. With their second round pick, the niners take
Florida State<\/a> cornerback renardo green. Some think hes the best corner in the entire draft. Really physical db now the niners they moved up in the third round to take a mammoth kansas offensive lineman dominik puny six five, 313 pounds. He did not allow a sack in the last two seasons.
