A little business that specializes in beauty now has an ugly name. Emily turner shows us the salon in oakland is now getting its own makeover reporter if youre looking for a beauty treatment Something Like laser hair removal or facial chemical peel the first name that comes to mind is probably not going to be isis. If you ask [ nonenglish language ] whats in a name, she will tell you, everything. Her medical spas name has become a lightning rod for negativity. Pull up isis and not good stuff. Reporter the name is well intentioned. Isis is the mythological egyptian goddess of beauty whose name is also the acronym for public enemy number one. Unfortunately for business, there are those who have associated the spa with the group known for terror attacks rather than the harmless nymph. There is a little bit of sort of ridiculousness to the notion that a terrorist group would set up a spa in your neighborhood. Reporter but as the sign states, isis will soon be changing its name. For obvious reasons. At least they have a good sense of humor about it. But the reality is scary. What really prompted us to go ahead and make that change was that we were concerned first for the safety of the staff but when people are upset or angry, then we realize that we really had no control. Reporter so the egyptian chose a new name. Alyssium, mythological egyptian paradise. At the end of the day we realized we only want to be associated with something thats beautiful and positive and wonderful. Reporter so far, at least, elyssium is not known to be the name of any terrorist organization. Emily turner, kpix 5. Havent cini rain for days. Havent seen rain for days. Next week is rainfree.

S. 50 and 80. Thats the heaviest rainfall around the bay area. Its just light rain around the bay area but enough to slow down the commute. The snow level goes down to 4,000 feet tomorrow, 2,000 feet by sunday and that minus the rain will turn to snow and add up to up to 16 of snowfall and a winter storm warning is in effect beginning tonight. Mild around here, humid around here, showery around here. San jose 64. Oakland 60. Santa rosa 57. San francisco 58. Tomorrow night countdown to gold broadcast from 7 p. M. To 8 p. M.

That storm track right into the bay area. This is storm number 12 hitting california but look at that race of clouds and the red color you see there is a fast moving jet stream. The fastest jet stream support the winds that are the strongest just to our north. Far Northern California the northern sierra but not the bay area. We are just receiving scattered showers. Thats the storm thats out there right now. Futurecast will paint a picture with, yes, some showers around overnight into tomorrow morning. But its light. Light rain at most. And if you are lucky you will get an additional tenth of an inch of rainfall. Well stay cloudy tomorrow through the evening. We are mainly cloudy and then watch this. On sunday, now the rain is to our south. Whats going on . San jose, morgan hill, gilroy, santa cruz, capitola, before we clear out sunday afternoon. Theres another storm out there which is even stronger, remember the one today is missing us to the north . The one on sunday is going to miss us again to the south. Heavy rainfall, flooding is likely for los angeles, for san diego, for Orange County, but not for us because that guy is going to scoot around out over the ocean and into Southern California. You can see the bulls eye. The sierra, three inches of rainfall. Southern california, an inch or more coming up on sunday far Northern California is pouring right now, stuck in between, the bay area where were really not going to see that much rain from both of these systems. Both will turn out to be a myth. Some showers out there tonight. Mainly cloudy. It will be cooler tomorrow highs in the 50s. It will be cloudy, look like rain, you may get five or 10 minutes of a shower and thats it. And the south bay you have a chance of showers sunday morning. Highs tomorrow 50s. Redwood city 59. Concord 57. San rafael 55. It will be an unsettled weekend. Not that warm. Not that sunny but really not raining that much, either. Couple of sprinkles sunday morning. Next week the week leading up to the super bowl notice monday through friday, no rain. Whoa zero rainfall next week. Not good for the drought. But for the visitors, they will probably be happy.
