Your community station with the story come this young man saw a problem and found a way to help out. How he is enlisting his community to keeping the music going. Good afternoon, everybody, im reed cowan. Lets start with this big news. Longtime House Speaker nancy pelosi says she will step down from her leadership role, however she still plans to serve in congress. Cbs reporter skyler henry has an update for the bay area that hits the area hard. A, reed, good to be with you. The speaker said that she will remain in her house seat, but also pointed out that its important to focus on the future of the Democratic Party , and she wasnt the only long serving member of congress to echo that sentiment pick meanwhile the republicans have signaled with their First Priority will be once they take control next session. Back for me the hours come for a new generation to lead the Democratic Caucus that i deeply respect pick nancy pelosi was the first woman to serve as speaker of the house, and she was proud that congress has become more inclusive during that time. In my 35 years in the house i have seen this body grow more reflective of our great nation. Inflammation. Akeem jeffries is the favorite to take over as minority leader, which could put them in position to someday become the first black speaker of the house. Its always good for a party to have new blood and doing configuration for new ideas. Spectra number two democrat is also stepping down. Had nancy pelosi stayed on she would have had to turn over the speakers gavel after voters gave republicans control the house. One Party Democrat rule in washington is finished. We have fired nancy pelosi. Republicans say they plan to use their newly gained subpoena power to launch investigations of President Biden we have repeatedly called on the Biden Department to release documents to committee republicans, but thus far treasure has refused. Its up to them. We should also pointed out that republicans earlier this week voted to select Kevin Mccarthy to be their nominee. But whats important to point out is he does not have the full support of the entire republican caucus, and that will be especially important, because he will need all 218 of those votes once republicans take control and can only afford a few defectors if he wants to become the next speaker, reed. Back to you. Scala, one more question from the bay area, and this points to whats next. Akeem jeffries, we mentioned in the piece, the congressman from new york is one of them. We heard from several members who signaled they are throwing their names behind him, but there are other names, pete aguiar from california, the 31st district, is another name that popped out in terms of democratic leadership. Clark, the congressman from new york as well. All these long serving members of congress have signaled they are ready to usher in a new chapter of democratic leadership, new, fresh blood are the words they used. Signout will be interesting to see what that leadership looks like in this next session. Skyler henry, one of the hardest working reporters. Thank you. When pelosi announced she was stepping down she made magnificent remarks on the floor, and i believe she quoted from ecclesiastes there is a time for everything under the sun. So, if there is anyone that understands timing and the right time for her, for her family, its Nancy Pelosis. Nancy pelosi always , always reminded the members , and in some of the toughest and darkest times in the life of our country. That it was the American People that sent us r them colleagues of House Speaker and memories of her time in congress on social media.

Temper look at our forecast with first alert chief meteorologist paul heggen. We would like to see more rain eventually. Instead, we will get the offshore winds returning to the bay on friday. Unfortunately not Strong Enough to lower the drought risks , but we will track more. We will see it pivoting into the weekend, but dry conditions of the weekend, with a return to near normal temperatures. We will. Up late tonight into early tomorrow morning. We are most concerned about the Higher Elevations of the north bay and inland parts of the east bay. The winds wont be too strong, but the winds are going to. Up as we head towards midday and into the afternoon. Some 20 to 30 mileanhour gusts for napa county and sonoma county. Particularly the highest elevations of 2000 feet where we could trust in the 4045 mileanhour range. And humidity levels will be dropping. Not to bad, but as we connected the day in the atmosphere warms up, humidity level drops to that 50 20 range. Combine that with gusty winds that would lead normally to an escalated fire threat. But we are still riding off that rain we received. If we have enough offshore winds events, the fuels will dry out again. We arent quite to that level just yet, so we will keep an eye on the fire threat tomorrow. Its not going to be off the charts, and while we dont have a great sevenday chance for rain , the outlook takes us from the day after thanksgiving, black friday, through the first day of december that we are going to get into a more wet than normal pattern. In late november, thats saying something, so things look favorable for the deadline. Outside right now, just high clouds out there. It will be a beautiful sunset, in about an hour and a half or so. Temperatures right now are in the low 60s for most of us, warmer in santa rosa at 67. Temperatures later on tonight dropping down to the mid to upper 30s and low 40s inland, low to mid 40s around the bay. Some of the chilly spots are getting close to freezing. With offshore winds tomorrow temperatures will warm up to four degrees above average. Except along the coast, you are likely to hit the 60s for half moon bay. Around the south end of the bay, mostly mid60s inland of the santa clara valley, 67 in san jose. Mid to upper 60s for inland spots in the east bay. The warmest spots, approaching 70 degrees. Around the bay, is in san francisco, upper 60s for oakland in the east bay. And high temperatures north of the golden gate, warmer, because those offshore winds, the air flows downhill, ticket it gets compressed and warms up and rises. I will be live at 3 00 where temperatures are cooling down, where we will light up the center. On tuesday, theres a chance of showers, and its looking less and less impressive with every batch of model data we get in, things are going to dry out. It looks like a travel weather wednesday, and for thanksgiving day on thursday, reed. A young music lover is working to get instrument into the hands of other kids.
