11:00 am
right now at 11:00, no deal for oakland, at least not yet. the a's are now headed to northern california, looking for temporary home turf, while they
11:01 am
build their new ballpark in las vegas. thanks for joining us on this wednesday morning. i'm kris sanchez. now, we'll get to the latest developments surrounding the a's in just a few moments. but, first, we are tracking rain that's set to make a return to the bay area. >> no kidding. kari hall, you are timing this out for us. >> and the good thing is that we do have a little bit more time to prepare. the rain is coming in tomorrow, but we are going to see the clouds coming in, gusty winds and temperatures will start to get cooler. we will start to see the temperatures improving. rain and hall in tomorrow's forecast. that continues into thursday as well. for the weekend, it will be calmer and the skies will gradually clear. here is a look at the storm system that is arriving and that leading edge of clouds not really having a lot of moisture with it. but we will see clouds and some
11:02 am
gusty winds as it moves closer to the bay area. our hour by hour outlook shows the first wave of rain coming in by sunshine. by mid-morning we're starting to see some of it taper off. notice the different colors here we have in the east bay. that is snow that will be falling on mt hamilton and the north bay mountains moving in tomorrow morning and spotty activity as we head into thursday evening as well as friday. so we'll talk more about this, all the changes ahead of the gusty winds and the impacts we will see leading into the weekend coming up in a few minutes. >> snow in april is not something you hear every day. use the camera on your phone to scan the qr code on the screen. it will take you to our app where you can stay on top of the weather in our neighborhood. you can download our app for free. now, nbc bay area's bob redell. >> yeah, he is in oakland talking about developing news.
11:03 am
we know the a's have been trying to work out some deal for a temporary move. we thought they were going to stay in oakland, but they might be headed to sacramento, bob. >> reporter: good morning to you, kris and ginger. we are still trying to confirm this. both are reporting that the a's today are meeting in sacramento about the possibility of the team playing at the sutter health park while their new stadium is built in las vegas, so that will be starting next fall season. sutter health is a aaa home of the sacramento river cats, but the move would cost the a's $67 million in annual broadcast revenue if they were to go to sacramento. also, sutter health is a smaller stadium than where the a's currently play. as you can see, the a's can't even fill that right now. attendance at the coliseum has been horrible as a's fans stay away from the team because they are upset about their impending move to las vegas. the a's lease in the coliseum
11:04 am
expires at the end of this ball season. construction of their new $1.5 billion stadium is supposed to be completed on the las vegas strip. this is a live look in oakland. yesterday the a's met with the city of oakland to negotiate a new lease extension there, but it does not appear those talks were productive. the a's told us they were far apart on the terms needed to agree to an extension. the city of oakland is asking for $97 million in rent over five years. that would be the extension. the a's could leave after three, but we still have to pay that $97 million. the a's countered with $17 million for two seasons. now, we have reached out to the a's and the city of sacramento about today's reported meeting. the city of sacramento had no comment. but we believe today's meeting in sacramento was planned before yesterday's meeting in oakland. so, in other words, regardless of what was going to happen
11:05 am
yesterday in oakland, this meeting in sacramento was still on for today. reporting live, bob redell, nbc bay area news. >> it is so hard trying to read through so many tea leaves. thanks, bob. bart service resumed. trains were stopped between antioch and pittsburgh bay point. bart tells us that an out of service train derailed slightly. while crews worked to get it back on the track, commuters were stuck and they were frustrated. >> it is just a mess. and it seems like we always get the short end of the stick out here. and this is a pretty significant line where i believe is generating a lot of revenues. we always seem to have issues here. >> passengers were able to take busses between stops. as you know, that made their commute just a little longer. well, police in san jose are investigating a deadly hit-and-run. officers say it involved two cars, one person has died from
11:06 am
that accident. now, at last check, surrounding roads were still closed. parts of the boulevard is closed. elkins way is closed to neman boulevard. and daniel maloney drive from brigadoune way. there could be serious delays, and this is the 12th fatal crash in san jose this year. developing now, rescue efforts continue in taiwan, following a devastating and powerful earthquake. >> this is the most powerful earth walk to hit the island in a quarter century. at least nine people were killed by the quake. more than 800 others were injured. nbc's january sis macke frayer is following the latest. >> reporter: this is the strongest earthquake to hit taiwan in 25 years. magnitude 7.4, according to u.s. estimates striking during the morning rush hour. in taipei, city landmarks were
11:07 am
rocking, houses were shaking, water was falling out of rooftop swimming pools. the tremors were felt 100 miles away and set off tsunami warnings in the philippines, japan and here in china. the death toll has been rising. hundreds are injured. and dozens are said to be trapped on blocked roads, in tunnels. some workers stuck in rock quarries and possibly people trapped under debris in partially collapsed buildings. the worst hit city is on the eastern coast of taiwan, about 11 miles from the earthquake's epicenter. some buildings there are leaning very precariously. emergency workers are fanning out across taiwan, but there have been dozens of aftershocks they have been dealing with. there is also rain in the forecast which should complicate rescue efforts even further. >> we know time is so critical. thank you, janice.
11:08 am
so turning to developing news at home. you can see on your screen that amber alert for her whereabouts is now canceled. 3:15 this morning, the chp announced that she was found safe. investigators say a 22-year-old abducted her at 76th avenue in oakland around 7:00 last night. at the time of the amber alert, rivas was considered armed and dangerous. the chp has not revealed how the situation came to an end. new at 11:00, oakland police are investigating an overnight shooting near lake merit just after 1:00 this morning. officers were called out to the scene. but when they got there, there were no victims. they didn't see any evidence of a shooting. however, shortly after, a gunshot victim arrived at a nearby hospital. the hospital notified police. the victim is expected to be okay. but so far no one is under arrest. today marks day two of the nurses' strike in the south bay. this is impacting three
11:09 am
hospitals. that's valley medical center, o'connor and saint luis regional in gilroy. the county hospital system is chronically understaffed. now, the county disputes those claims saying nurses would only be assigned to sites where they are trained. they're also paid more when they cover a shift at an alternate site. the two sides expect to go back to the bargaining table after the strike ends. a new bill aims to give oversight on self-driving cars. california lawmakers will present the bill next week at the state capitol. advocates say these cars pose a safety concern. autonomous vehicles have been criticized for traffic violations, blocking traffic as well as getting in the way of emergency responders. right now, local law enforcement is unable to ticket these cars for violations. state senator dave corteza says
11:10 am
this bill would change that. >> giving them the opportunity to pass ordinary local laws around speed limits and dropoff zones and accountability, what does it mean if -- if an autonomous vehicle is parked inappropriately blocking a driveway or something like that, who gets a ticket for that, who pays for that? those are just basic ordinary regulations that we already have in place for -- for regular cars, human-driven cars. >> well, this comes after the state of california approved the permit earlier this month in los angeles and san mateo county, despite protests from local lawmakers. some nerve wracking moments at a north bay high school. what police are saying about the moment that a woman walked on to campus covered in blood. plus, are electric vehicles losing their popularity? while tesla reports disappointments this week, two companies are still cashing in.
11:11 am
scott breaks it down. also, artificial intelligence no exact science. a silicone valley company is looking to make it more human. we will show you how that tech works in our 4:30 newscast thi
11:12 am
11:13 am
counselors are on campus after a disbushing incident where a naked woman covered in blood went into the gym while students were there. police got the call at 3:00 in the afternoon. apparently she had been breaking things in a house nearby. officers got a call about the same woman inside that gym while covered in blood. students were inside at the time. police tell us she seemed to be experiencing some sort of mental health crisis. paramedics did take her to the hospital. we are told that she is expected to be okay. 11:13 for you this wednesday morning.
11:14 am
shares in tesla continue to fall this mid-day, a day after the company announced it made fewer cars and delivered fewer cars to customers than it hoped. >> why tesla tripped up. >> yeah, tripped up at a time other car manufacturers said they were doing just fine. i will get to that in a second. but first the tesla numbers. they delivered 386,000 new cars to customers in the first quarter. that sounds like a lot. and it is. but compare that to the previous quarter when tesla managed to hit almost 100,000 more cars delivered. there are a lot of factors, from high interest rates to a lack of fresh updates on the tesla look. they're mostly all the time they have been in years. the always colorfully dressed dan ives spared no punches saying the numbers for tesla were a disaster. he said, we view this as a seminal moment for the tesla story for musk to either turn
11:15 am
this around and reverse the black eye 1q performance. otherwise, some darker days could be ahead. there is some talk about the slump in the interest of electric cars. but ford and toyota are also turning in their quarterly numbers. and they don't seem to have the same problem. sales of their electric cars jumped more than 80% last quarter. the car company has been cutting prices, reducing the sticker on its ford mach e. drivers can use the tesla recharge stations with ford. consumer reports, meantime, out with a new issue that says tesla's interior is frustrating. but it still recommends the car. and "reuters" reports that polling by the firm caliber found a significant number of tesla buyers are turned off by the behavior of elon musk who
11:16 am
has railed lately against diversity and inclusion. the percentage of people that trust the tesla brand at 31% down from highs of 70%. now, tesla still an innovative company with popular cars. the model y second best selling car in america according to kelly blue book and the best selling car in california. in fact, one out of every eight cars sold in the state every month is a tesla. back to you. >> thanks a lot, scott. i see them on the roads definitely. well, april is stress awareness month. and a recent study found that people between the ages of 18 to 34 have the highest stress levels. according to the american psychological association, 82% say significant sources of stress for them were health related. 82% also said that money was a big source of stress, the economy and housing costs are also top stressors. now, we talked to a stress doctor who says breathing is a key tool to help manage your
11:17 am
stress. >> when you breathe in, your heart rate increases. and when you breathe out, it slows down. even if you take a five-minute break, close your eyes and breathe out for twice as long as you breathe in, you will start to calm your nervous system. as you do that, you will see your mind starts to calm down as well. >> and there it is. the doctor says in her new book, details how breathing influences how we perceive the world, how we think, how we feel and how our neurons respond to the rhythm of our breath. interesting stuff. developing now, a destructive storm system continues to sweep across the country leaving a wake of destruction of tornadoes and causing flooding from the ohio valley down to the southeast. this particular video is from kentucky where one of those twisters touched down and just wreaked havoc. maggie vespa is on the ground with an upclose look at ta damage. >> reporter: states of emergency
11:18 am
declared in west virginia and here in kentucky where three confirmed tornadoes worked through this state alone. one of them reportedly touching down in lagrange. you can see the power of that storm on display. looking at that house, huge parts of the roof ripped off and the front corner ripped off and tossed largely just across the street into this neighbor's front lawn. you can see these massive boards, some of them with nails sticking up through them. parts of the roof as well. cleanup crews down the street in this neighborhood taping off parts of another home as they sift through the rubble there. we are seeing widespread reports of damage and also power outages with close to a quarter of a million americans across six states without power. the silver lining in all of this, a lot of officials pointing to reports of minor injuries, but thankfully nothing worse than that. the report still coming in of damage across these states as this system moves east. we have millions of americans
11:19 am
acontract a huge swath of the country cleaning up again after this latest round of severe spring weather. maggie vespa, nbc news, la grange, kentucky. >> kari hall joins us now. those images have got to be hard to see. you have family in kentucky. >> yeah, right outside louisville where that tornado touched down. family is okay. everyone is doing well. but they're trying to clean up and it is still storming off and on. take a look of the storm system moving through the back edge of the storm system is now rolling through with some waves of rain. but we have seen the threat of severe weather now shifting off towards the east, affecting the mid-atlantic coach. that's what we will be watching as we go throughout the day. still some tornado watches in effect for parts of virginia as we continue to monitor this storm system. we also have a storm system coming in, packing a bunch with the wind, not so much the rain. but we are going to see those winds picking up as we go through the afternoon.
11:20 am
temperature-wise it is much cooler compared to yesterday. as we take a look at the north bay, we are only in the low 50s. we will see temperatures coming up a few more degrees. this is a big shift from the weather we had yesterday where there were widespread 70s and even a few low 80s. today in the south bay, we will see a high of 68 degrees. 62 in dublin and mid-60s for much of the north bay with san francisco in the upper 50s today. and tomorrow even cooler. that's where the rain begins. we will see clouds, off and on showers and even some snow on our bay area mountains. we don't improve much on friday. we're going a big snap back to winter for a little while. and looking at the rain coming in tomorrow morning, that starts out during the morning commute and off and on showers throughout the day. it will not be raining all day long, but at any point we could see a quick passing shower and a thunderstorm moving in with this next system that will be coming through the bay area.
11:21 am
it may also bring in some small hail with those thunderstorms and our bay area mountains are looking at 1 to 3 inches of snow. that's mount hamilton, possibility mount diablo. and the sierra will see about 6 to 12 inches of snow, which is not all that unusual for the sierra to get some snowfall. there will be more coming in this weekend. as we get another shot of some cool air dropping in on sunday while most of the bay area will see spotty showers. after that, temperatures warm up, and we're going to have a nice little rebound in those temperatures. so we're still on a roller coaster here. take a look at brentwood. going from a high of only 54 degrees tomorrow to a weekend with 60s. and then we have 70s and even 80s ahead for next week. so we are going to be seeing things changing day by day. and tomorrow is when the rain arrives with some gusty winds and possibly some thunderstorms.
11:22 am
looking quieter for the weekend. although, there may be some spotty showers, we are going to see things clearing out for the most part and our partial eclipse on monday looks clear for the bay area. so, of course, we'll keep you up-to-date on that. and now as we turn to our climate in crisis, today is national walking day. it was established by the american heart association to encourage us all to move more throughout the day. and not only does walking benefit our health and mood, it is good for the planet. it relooses greenhouse gas emissions and makes air quality better and improves the urban heat island effect, helping to cool down neighborhoods that trap heat from cars and buildings. walking can also save us some gas money, too. get out for a walk today. the weather will be quite nice, staying dry. ask your coworkers, friends and family to join you and i'm sure your dogs would love to go, too. for more stories like these, go
11:23 am
to our website and click on our climate in crisis tab. kris? >> yeah. the dogs are all going crazy. they heard you say "walk" one too many times there. the decision happened last night at the city council meeting for the center on oak park boulevard. you might remember in 2022, the city council created a buffer zone around planned parenthood so protesters were not allowed to enter. planned parenthood says it disrupts patients and staff. dwayne "the rock" johnson is an actor, a wrestling legend and a native. this week he's set to induct someone very special into the wwe hall of fame. ahead, we will explain the special

11:27 am
a new tier of tickets added called general admission plus. that costs $665. vip costs $965. and ultra vip will cost you the ultra big bucks at almost $4,900. >> oh, my goodness. again, you don't know the lineup yet as you are buying tickets this mid-day. hayward native duane the rock johnson celebrating the life and legacy of his grandmother by sending her into the wwe hall of fame. the wrestler, turned actor, will induct his grandmother into the class on friday. she producd shows with ric flair and andres the giant. she also inducted his grandfather into the hall in 1998. he returns to the ring for wrestlemania 40 in philadelphia. it is a two-night event that will stream live on peacock on saturday and sunday. now, i can't say that about my grandmothers.
