incredibly beautiful. just the wind is the fastest wind that i've ever seen. and, a lifetime memory. >> park rangers in mount diablo say they know that the snow will attract crowds, but they also want to remind visitors the weather conditions can change very quickly. so always a good idea to listen to the warnings and to be prepared. >> yeah. certainly is. and the weather is putting a damper on the return of oakland's first fridays. >> the community street fair was set to come back tomorrow for some springtime fun, but they're calling it off because of the forecast and what organizers called various other factors. organizers said in part, quote, our primary concern is the safety and well-being of all our participants, including our valued food and retail vendors. they're trying to reschedule for next week, or they may just start in may. >> there is anger and sadness in the east bay tonight, after the a's made their breakup with oakland official. their new home will be in west sacramento, a shared with the giants triple-a team. there. the a's are set for three seasons at sutter health

talked about how excited he was about the interim deal in sacramento, dolich says that fisher is nothing like former owner walter haas, who kept the team in oakland and helped them win a world series championship in 1989. >> this is my miniature world series trophy from 1989. and just to show you the quality of the haas family, every single one of us in the organization got one of these. this talks about what was possible, what the haas tried to do and what they did, and what john fisher i don't think john's ever going to have one of these. the blame game, though, is strong, especially when it comes to what the city of oakland and alameda county leadership did or did not do. >> this new mayor. i don't think she really know how to play the game when it comes to professional sports team. >> i love our mayor, but i think she has a lot to do. she didn't

fight to keep the teams here. it sucks to see another team leave and it feels like our city is failing. >> the gut punch that this, gives to all of us. and i'm one of them having worked there, this is just hard to comprehend that a city loses three major professional sports teams in such a short period of time. >> mayor shengtao says that oakland offered a deal that was fair to the a's and was fiscally responsible. a's management, though, saying that both sides were just too far apart in oakland. j.r. stone abc seven news now to your voice, your vote, and the unprecedented development in the race to represent santa clara and san mateo counties in congress. >> we've known all along. this won't be decided until november. but tonight, two people are tied for the number two spot. that means voters general election ballots will have three names. former mayor sam liccardo, the front runner from the start, plus evan lowe and joe simitian in an exact tie, 30,249 votes

this story, the first thing they think of is this had to be an inside job. >> experts say the operation was sophisticated, and obviously carefully planned, and so the support system necessary to be able to get that kind of cash out there as well is pretty significant. >> and you can't do it with 1 or 2 people. and so the fact that it went undetected until uh- open a business monday morning again says just how professional they were. >> cash storage facilities like this one are used as a temporary stop when money has to be held and then moved along. they have very strong security and can hold millions of dollars, all of the pickups, every day by all of the armored car companies, that cash has to be stored somewhere until it can ultimately be deposited in the bank and dealt with appropriately. >> carlos granda, abc seven news all new at 11 as p-g-and-e's asked to raise customers rates, the company's top executives got a raise. >> big ones a filing with the securities and exchange commission shows the utility giant's ceo got a 20% pay bump

of low pressure that has moved onshore. and as it is over land now, it has been bringing us everything from thunderstorms earlier tonight to snow showers over the mount tam, santa cruz mountains up to our north, mount diablo, mount uh, uh- these areas are going to continue to see the snow fall. so right now we have a combination of showers at the lower elevations san jose, santa clara, milpitas highway 130, and you see that wintry weather over mount hamilton, widening it out here, still seeing showers off the coastline. so we're not completely done yet. seeing some pockets of downpours in the inland east bay right now right around antioch, lone tree way, oakley, brentwood area. this is going to continue around san francisco peninsula, the san mateo millbrae area, all the way to oakland, san leandro and fremont. here's a live view from the tahoe area where the snow continues to fall up in the mountains. they do have a winter weather advisory until 11 p.m. tomorrow night. 2 to 6in of snow. those snow levels very

low, 1000 to 3000ft. so travel could be difficult. they already have had chain controls. here's a wider perspective of all this is cold, unstable air. even though the front came through earlier this morning and the low came through tonight, we still have to deal with the instability off the coastline. that's going to be for the second half of this storm, which is tomorrow. temperatures right now. oh boy. it feels like winter 30s and 40s. it is cold out there compared to yesterday. running even cooler, nine degrees cooler in oakland and half moon bay. a golden gate bridge is a little bit of a wet view. showers and snow through tomorrow. thunder chance with brief downpours and hail. we already saw it today, but we could see a rerun tomorrow. the weekend weather. it's going to be a cold morning, a sunnier saturday north bay likely will go under frost advisories tomorrow or saturday morning. excuse me through tomorrow. it's a level one. cold showers, gusty snow on the peaks. chance of thunder and hail. so while tomorrow morning starts off with pretty light winds, by 11 a.m, the winds start to pick up along

the coast over 30 miles an hour and it does get gusty. close to 40 miles an hour in the evening hours. we're going to time this out for you while you're sleeping. snow showers and showers continue through 8 a.m. spotty showers for the commute, and then we head into the afternoon at 130 and you start to see some showers popping back up again with the snow falling over. mount hamilton. this carries on into the evening hours as far as additional rain, most areas will be a few hundredths to a few tenths, but if we do see thunderstorms, we'll pick up higher totals. so more snow for the santa cruz mountains. mount hamilton is where we will likely see the accumulating snow, along with the interior portions of lake and mendocino counties, where that winter weather advisory got extended above 2000ft until 5 a.m. tomorrow. 1 to 2 more inches of snow, 30s and 40s. bundle up. tomorrow morning is going to be cold tomorrow afternoon. hang on to that extra layer. highs will be in the 50s. breezy with those scattered showers. and here is the great news for opening day giants take on the padres. it is just going to be an isolated shower chance.
