Holding on to the 30s. Areas like santa rosa nevado petaluma and napa were down there this morning. Now youre back to the mid to upper 40s. Im talking more about what to expect today as well as thanksgiving still to come all right. Thank you john were checking in on the traffic which is looking really got a huge improvement compared to the Early Morning hours were off to the golden gate where we never had any problems are major issues and it looks really good here well get a little bit of fog coming from the north bay but. Across the span refined so 20 minutes novato to the toll plaza were checking on the bay bridge with the traffic is thinning out nicely it was solid about 30 minutes ago, so its breaking up we could see a little more space between the cars, its very quiet heading into San Francisco. So were at 13 minutes for your drive to make it in and slow traffic on the nimitz northbound from to 38 today this after a fatal accident at the davis street overcrossing at 8. 80 back to you. All right, thank you very much rob and so our big story this morning comes from the north bay where Solano County now seeing a huge spike in fact the highest number of reported covid19 cases since the beginning of the outbreak and what we have here is Solano CountyPublic Health departments dashboard this is how you can at a glance see the situation right now for covid19 in that county, the large number that you see there 121,000 plus thats the total number of people are residents have been tested so far and of that number weve had 9,745 people confirmed to be positive with covid19 thats across the entire pandemic from february till now 778 are currently being treated for it. The sad number there 81, thats the number of people who have died from covid19 in Solano County and 12. 2 represents the say a 7 day positivity rate, 12. 2 is extremely high and local doctors are worried that the numbers will continue to get worse as we head into thanksgiving. Thats why we have kron 4 Sarah Stinson on the story for us live in Solano County with what we need to know. Just said james cases are rising rapidly and thanksgiving 2 days away. People are doing Different Things either way its looking a lot different than previous years, but some people are deciding to spend time with family members and invite them over and gather in groups or others are deciding not to do that. Now people are shopping here in fairfield now to get the stuff they need for their feast. Health officials in Solano County are worried about gatherings this holiday season, especially with the concern that multiple generations will gather putting older relatives more at risk coronavirus cases are currently on the rise here due to halloween parties. They say. What they had groups of 20 to 30 people gathering together indoors in this county in that caused a peak now the previous spike in Solano County was in mid july with a 100 cases reported in a day and this past week. There was even more than that the number of hospitalizations have also tripled from below 20 to over 60 if you do attend a Holiday Gathering the county Health Officer says wear a mask, when youre not eating in maintain distance now we heard from a woman last hour she said shes going to do that she has Hand Sanitizer shes going to be distancing. All of her relatives have a total of 8 people at her house but i talked to another woman who says shes going to avoid the gatherings altogether which is going to make her thanksgiving look a lot different this year. Because of the pandemic and everything does doing so should this unseen in. You know just like small. The people that i live with that said that it is usually the family and has like big gathering in everything and they need. You know in my family and they come from everywhere for thanksgiving and everything so this year by social distancing at home. In by big gathering. She means 20 to 30 relatives usually get together so its going to look very different this year with about 4 people instead. Whatever you do show gratitude to your family members by protecting each other thats the best thing you can do. Remember here in Solano County its in the states purple tier so that curfew is in effect and you have to be at home. Indoors. Safely by 10 oclock reporting live in fairfield Sarah Stinson kron 4 news okay. Thank you very much sara. Again about whos getting infected in california its young adults for the most part more than half of new coronavirus cases across the state or younger people the governor made the announcement of who it is ages, 18 to 49 they account for 60 of new cases statewide and to curb the spread of the virus. The governor has mandated that curfew surges told us about 10 00pm to 05 00am and thats for any county thats in the purple which is all the bay area except San Francisco marin and san mateo and they too could be in it by the end of the week. I think im actually it seems like. This might be people that are going out a little bit more and acting a little bit riskier. Really scary out there right now so its hard. Its hard to tell anyone what to do right now, but you can only you know take care of yourself, lets put our heads on right. And think about it and let us get out of this were almost there were right at the summit lets just lets just make it happen now. Listen up kids you can hear what all the experts are saying theyre saying wear a mask a stick with your bubble in your family dont for thanksgiving and if you do by the way leave the state or the bay area they would like they strongly urge you to quarantine for 14 days when you return. If you look at the numbers in california now with more than 1 million 100 thousand cases and approaching now 19,000 deaths in the bay area weve had 1928 people die of covid and hospitalizations are also up. They went up 77 in the last 2 weeks and icu admissions are up 55 . 9 06 a quick update on Governor Newsom and his family they are still in quarantine this morning after the governors children, were exposed to a chp officer who had covid19 the chp provide security for the governors family. So there, interacting with them a lot. No one in the family has tested positive but during a News Conference yesterday. The governor says that he now has a much better understanding of what families are going through. It is a very challenging in trying time and it something is now been brought home quite literally in terms of my own experience just over the course last couple days that said i did respect for people they dont have the support of people that are in my position that dont have the resources of people in my position and those that are struggling. Well the quarantine also comes after one of his children was exposed to a classmate who tested positive. The governor is expected to be tested regularly now in the days to come. Theres also in the days to come cheaper faster covid testing coming to the bay area kron fours dan kerman takes a look at it. Those getting tested the top the 24th and mission bart station this week are getting 2 types of covid tests the more complex unreliable pcr test and the quicker cheaper by next rapid test it 2 ways to detect infection. One is to look the genetic material. Of the virus. And the others to look for proteins of the virus. The coach of the virus. The infrastructure of the virus while the protein rapid test was previously believed to be less reliable. A small, ucsf study conducted during similar testing back in september found they were accurate in 14 out of 15 people who are infected what theyre saying is on a one time. Basis they were able to detect 14 out of 15 specimens that were that were positive by the more standard. Method is thats substantial advance which i dont think anybody. What was was predicting. Ucsf Infectious Disease for allah just doctor George Rutherford says because the protein tests are so much cheaper and the results can be determined so much quicker. It could really make a difference in slowing the spread of covid19 we want to find people who are the most infectious we want to get them isolated. As quickly as possible. The fact that this is far less expensive then standard genetic tests. And that its didnt get results back. Too much more quickly typically. I think brings it as a sort of an added added tool. Now doctor rutherford was not part of the ucsf study but he says hes encouraged by it. Though he agrees additional testing will have to be done to determine just how robust this testing method is a ucsf dan kerman kron 4 news. Well happening today in oakland, the Alameda CountyPublic Health department is going to be hosting a free covid19 testing popup site and face mask giveaway the event starts at 10 this morning. It will end at 4 in the afternoon out on macarthur boulevard organizers say the testing is available to adults and children aged one or older. No insurance is needed. No questions will be asked about immigration status. 9. 10 at the time right now and coming up on the kron 00 00am morning news you heard the travel warnings may be a listen to fauci when he tells you not to go outside your bubble for thanksgiving and as far as thanksgiving and the holidays that are upcoming tourism is way down well tell you what the bay area specifically San Francisco is doing to survive, but first the morning buzz. The guy who was hired to help the warriors turned out he punched Klay Thompson in the face what he has with that baggage will explain. And today a plus of one were in the 60s for daytime highs later today after such a cool start having been in the 30s for much of the bay and sunshine later on your forecast is ahead. Im tracking your morning commute around the bay area most of our bridges have thinned out nicely but here at the richmond sandra fell the fog is now an issue chp just issuing a special fog advisory for 5 in the west across the span to be careful out there well check more bridges coming up. Shunning okay, its 9. 13 i cannot hold this last piece of pie any long go ahead. Okay because lot Winston Robins mother and robin made this fabulous sweet potato pie she did and i dont know we had the first piece and you can see here but theres we dont know one piece of mystery that will so thanksgiving, you know you have to celebrate at home in your bubble and everything and says weve got like a word mobile going this is our deals is not a good as its going to get yeah all right, lets get over to the Weather Center john i think you do it so you are to finish his it feels like to think im in the fu all it took was a sweet potato but yes, it is definitely a nice morning to munch on something indoors with your family because its kind of a cold morning out there, but at least it is clearing up and under that sunshine temperatures are starting to rise now just a little bit of fog remaining out right over the bay, its actually sitting right over some of our bridges which has made some dense fog and a few other bridges, what robin ill tell you about here in a second. But overall most of our areas little clearer than that gray we started with yesterday radar very quiet picture across the region and were going to remain that way for the bay area into tomorrow too. We do have an advancing cold front sitting right to our north and west right now already resulting in showers in the Pacific Northwest as it steers our direction any sort of precipitation really was the steam by reached by the time it would reach the bay area so not to worry bay area remains dry tomorrow. It will be areas to our north like north of redding up to the oregon border that not just see some rain but some rain snow mix. So if youre heading that way specially early on tomorrow watch out for some slick spots on i 5 as you cross especially towards oregon. These showers start to fizzle out by the time they reach lake tahoe to some rain snow mix in the sierra but not a lot of it will bring a brief bit of it towards the middle of the day tomorrow. Again notice how the bay area stays dry during this entire time. The rest of the region joins us by thanksgiving with dry conditions returning to northern parts of the state as well as the sierra for thursday as well as into friday and into the following weekend after the holiday itself. So its actually pretty calm forecast for us as we work our way through the holiday. Good news for those of you that may be planning a thanksgiving lunch outside instead of in the kitchen, 50s and 60s for your highs near the coastline today well elsewhere in the bay area. It will be daytime highs just a touch warmer than yesterday mostly mid to upper 60s today saying carlos at 67 south bay temperatures in the mid 60s while the east bay, a solid range of low 60s mid 60s to even upper 60s in walnut creek in concord each at 68 today, north bay temperatures mid to upper 60s for you this is a touch warmer than we were yesterday and also a little warmer than we will be tomorrow as that cold front pushes through the biggest impact it has on us is a slight cool down taking us from those mid to upper 60s today into the low 60s tomorrow, thanksgiving and friday. Rob, thank you john checking in on the bridges, some have out nicely some are a little foggy we have a late fog advisory coming in for richmond sandra fell we can see it here off in the distance but. Apparently its dense enough to issue one for the span as well according to chp standard so just be careful. The the commute traffic has stand out so no delays at the toll plaza, but a little foggy there for you in to the north bay here the bay bridge 80 west are doing fine and easy trip into San Francisco. No problems a huge improvement for the early hours 10 minutes for that commute off to fremont street were checking out San Francisco, northbound one oh one and north to 80 from the peninsula to San Francisco are looking fantastic. I see someone coming into the take a lot of these come over here this is this is whats left of your pie is this from your but thank you i did an awesome that high 2 at home. Hugh thank you so much and thank you mom thats a look back to the deaths now back to you. Thank you robin. Time now for winners and losers on wall street joining us live this morning as financial expert, rob black to help us understand what were seeing on wall street this morning good morning, rob. Good morning. James. My favorite pie well that will still try and save a piece for but its going to kind of hard though because i have a feeling darzi the last one when an event weve got big news on wall street, the dow up above 30,000 is i would think this is just because weve got some resolution on the president ial transition front or what. I know youre going to hate me for saying this, but this is what wall street does it look 6 months in that resolution with the biden transition has already priced now are looking at stimulus before the end of the year life lee were still look at the senate races which could throw a curve ball in the markets at all time highs if democrats take control of the senate probably would mean higher taxes. Then you also get 3 vaccines all time highs now 30 k janet yellen is even known become a treasury secretary. What i mean by that is we know that she likes to fight inflation good for employment. Shes not really progressive. So those who are worried on wall street of all i may be much for progressive agenda, not a sigh of release. Thanksgiving were close fridays me a halfday black fridays you weird. Best buy had a great quarter, but there whats happening great 9 months the stock selling off. Even though they had a great quarter expect another great quarter 2021 to be a transition year took good economy. 2022 is to be a very good economy like thats what it looks like its all streets tell us ok so if theyre looking at 6 months theyre optimistic that 6 months from now things should be a little bit. Yes, ill take it all right well see where it home prices those have also going up it looks like the pandemic has helped that sector out as well. In 2 pandemic has forced us to find second homes are bigger homes maybe leave some of our. Smaller homes in metro cities. Mortgage rates dropped to 2. 7 5 which is knots but i think one of 3. 2 5 minutes and i dont think people are 3 2, 7, 5, thats how demand with covid and low Interest Rates to their back economy. Phoenix up 11 yearoveryear that feels like la and San Francisco moving there saddle up 10. 1 san diego up 9 and a half percent that feels like la trying to find more space little south. Were up 23 only from the peak of 2006 real estate prices james, so even the real estate have a great time of it it pales compared to theanasdaq up 30 this year. Again 14 years real estate up 23 one year nasdaqs up percent also kee. My theres no supply yeah were not building fast we should so were going to see it better but to start getting tailwind are are now about 2 years when Interest Rates start to move higher as the economy started continued on for so interesting graduations going home i own so there you go all right and then finally weve got to talk about a tesla stock. We have with the stock price continue climb now teslas market cap. Now valued at half a trillion. Dollars this is incredible he lawns elon is well its got to go through the roof. Yeah again thats 8 teslas shown and proven that Auto Industry is a growth industry to say the least again a favorite pie chart just basis, its got the biggest pot far as billionaires to our east and the world bill gates moves from number 2 slice item number 3 slice thanksgiving pie as you on must has taken over musk has a wealth of a 120 billion dollars thats some of that Mark Zuckerberg slips to number 4.
