11:05 pm
the patient. and we look forward to a quick recovery. >> reporter: ian cole, nbc bay area news. now, for the latest updates on this new ebola case, just go to nbc bay area. and the problem with the water, people in san jose have gone almost a week without drinking healthy water. last friday the san jose water company issued a boil water notice for homes. the water tested positive for e. coli, but several people were exposed to it before they were told not to drink it. now several people got sick. the company believes an animal got into and contaminated the pipes. some say it just doesn't matter. >> i will never drink city water as long as i live. diarrhea, headaches, nausea, dizziness, that is what i went into the hospital for because it kept getting worse. >> now the water company says it

shopping center. detectives say a woman entered the store yesterday and asked to see some watches. then a man walked in with a handgun and ordered the employees to the ground. the couple made off with 25 expensive watches, luckily no employees were hurt. and no calls, e-mails, contact with other board members, a south bay member is being punished tonight for bad behavior at school. just moments ago the board trustee was alleged to have harassed the child school recall. nanette, lots of angry parents tonight. >> reporter: well, they were certainly very vocal this evening. his job will be very difficult to do. frustrated parents and teachers wanted that approval of a resolution for christian polis. >> stop the nonsense. >> i am here to ask you to
11:08 pm
resign, and for the board to take action tonight. >> reporter: anger was clear in the public testimony. parents and teachers do not want santa clara unified schools trustee chris stampolis to be in office anymore, calling for his resignation, this after years of accusations that he harassed and threatened district staff, including the principal of his son's middle school where a security camera caught images of him simulating shooting a gun on campus. >> the idea that this would happen in a school district and that threats of violence would be used by school board members so inappropriate that at this point we're going to call for him to resign. >> but the powers of the board are limited and cannot force someone to resign, so the only action it could legally take is to censure stampolis, authorizing others not to meet with him, making him powerless.
11:09 pm
>> i just feel it is almost too little, too late. it is very symbolic. i don't think it is going to change his behavior. >> reporter: stampolis says he should not be censured, because the move is based on inaccuracies. >> there are a number of false allegations, some of the language that is in there. >> reporter: he is the only vote that voted against the censure, he still, though, does get to vote on matters before the board. but he still must abide by the restraining order to stay away from his son's school and his son's principal. live in santa clara, nanette miranda. thank you, next, a controversial rant caught on video here, the racist comments that led to a backlash in one community. and painting in parks, the so-called art that led to a

off to the north that means the chances of rainfall tonight are down to zero at this point. setting us up for a fantastic friday. and then again we have some stark contrast as we head into the saturday forecast. you will see that on the scrolling seven-day forecast as that continues to populate, in the north bay chilly, with 57, and we have had some slight humidity today, still sticking around up into the north bay, tomorrow, i don't think we'll start off clear. we'll have a few clouds down in the south bay with 57 degrees, in fact, 50s all across the bay area with some of the typical fog expected in san francisco for start. as you see in the forecast as we head throughout the friday forecast no sign at least of any kind of storm system coming our way when you get a look at the weather icons, 79 in san ñrjose likely surging up to 32 degrees

11:20 pm
could get a storm system. the system continuing through 11 a.m. as well. a chance of showers extended not only to 3:00 p.m., but possibly into 8:00 at night on saturday's totals. forecast inches possibly 3500. not only the wet weather on saturday morning but the wind coming out of the south, 15 to 30 miles an hour. as we continue throughout saturday, it will stay throughout saturday. areas of rain, windy, and much colder. as far as the world series forecast goes, we'll get fog rolling in tomorrow for game three. patchy drizzle, saturday, 60% chance of showers, looks like a home run, you guys as we head throughout sunday. >> partial baseball swing -- oh, wait, i can do -- >> he is going to break an ankle. >> have him play tennis.
