north bay valleys and into san francisco, we're seeing some of the visibility being affected this morning by some areas of that patchy fog. don't worry, that should mix out of here as we go on into the nine 10:00 hour. and then more of that sunshine. another warm day on tap if you choose to celebrate the dog moms in your life, or just celebrating all weekend long with your moms, some places that are inland valleys are going to reach the 90 degree mark. so i'll show you the rest of that microclimate forecast coming up in about 15 minutes. kira. all right, cynthia, thanks . well, did you see this? the northern lights shining in california, normally the closest we could see them would be going to canada. but these are pictures from the mendocino county coast. the vibrant colors you see courtesy of a severe solar system. photos taken from all across the u.s. showed the night sky illuminated in pinks, purples and greens as the solar storm is expected to continue tonight into tomorrow, and many are looking to bay area skies

waiting to see if there will be a show here. as today in the bay's jocelyn moran reports. though the phenomenon has some scientists concerned, a rare occurrence of a severe solar storm is expected to bring the northern lights to parts of the world that don't normally see them. some of the pictures we are seeing are absolutely spectacular. this could actually be seen, perhaps from northern alabama along the horizon, all the way out to northern california. it's been classified as a g5 level geomagnetic storm that hasn't happened since 2003. it's based off of an index kp index that measures how much magnetic activity there is in the, earth's atmosphere because of that strength, we could see disruptions here on earth. there at the bottom, this this sunspot group that you see, it's a big group of spots. doctor sushant mahajan is a postdoctoral fellow at the stanford solar group. he says that region has created solar flares and coronal mass ejections, also known as cmes.

those cmes are racing toward the earth at 500 miles per second, while humans are not in danger. it could affect power grids, navigation and satellite communications. we might see some voltage fluctuations and radio frequency blackouts. for sure. radio communication will be a bit difficult over the next couple of days, and we might even occasionally see cell phone , signals being affected or your gps, is more vulnerable. in 1989, a solar storm knocked out power in quebec for nine hours. you have the initial hit, the shock wave, as we call it. it arrives, and then the magnetic cloud. this event, though, could also bring something rarely seen here in the bay area. if you want to see the northern lights, mahajan says between 1 and 4 a.m. may be your best shot, but it has to be dark away from city lights. i am going to try and wake up or at least transport my

three year old daughter into her car seat and, go into the woods and try and see if i can capture northern lights on my phone camera experts say the storm could possibly last all weekend. jocelyn moran, nbc, bay area news. developing news now. three people are in the hospital this morning after a head on crash in contra costa county. seven people in two cars were hurt. it happened around 740 last night on marsh creek road in brentwood. an investigation into what caused the crash is underway, and another investigation mission following this fire in oakland at a church, saint andrew missionary baptist. the fire broke out around eight last night. firefighters say the flames jumped to the building next to the church, which fortunately is a vacant home. no injuries have been reported. and turning to our continuing coverage of the rising tensions on college

campuses, this is a look near the university of pennsylvania, where police arrested 30 pro-palestinian protesters yesterday. demonstrators, as you see there, blocked an intersection near the penn campus after their encampment was cleared out. meanwhile, back here in the bay area, the encampment at uc berkeley continues to grow despite the big commencement ceremony happening today. some students now preparing for the possibility of demonstrations overshadowing their graduation day. it comes as student protesters express their opposition to the war in gaza. the encampment in sproul plaza, approaching its third week pro palestinian demonstrators interrupted yesterday's law school graduation ceremony. today's graduating students are waiting to see what happens today. i really only thought about that today. for the first time, i'm a little bit like i was like, oh, i didn't even think about that. but i mean, i'm sure it'll be fine either way. with that comes dialog with all these different diverse groups and peoples. and i think

with that comes a better understanding of each other and that's, you know, better for our future. and for ourselves. a uc berkeley spokesperson says they do not discuss security protocols, but at this time, the commencement will go on as planned. also adding that, quote, berkeley graduation ceremonies have been venues for all sorts of protests for many years. this year, like every year in the past, our efforts will focus on ensuring the ceremony can be successfully held and on supporting the ability of graduating students, their friends and families to safely enjoy and take part in an incredibly meaningful day. happening today, people will gather in san francisco to support a neighbor who was targeted in two racist incidents at his home near alamo square park. the san francisco police department says it is investigating, but now third baptist church is demanding that state and federal authorities look into the issue. today, in

the bay's gia vang explains, ever since terry williams received two packages containing a black doll with a noose around its neck telling him to leave the alamo square district and covered in such vile racial slurs are so bad we can't show them on air. i'm definitely not sleeping normal hours. like i'm like, i'm up. i hear something i got to. i'm just constantly on alert. even though williams was born and raised in this neighborhood and is a well-known figure as a dog walker, but the magnitude of the situation and whoever is behind it, you're crazy. insane. so i got to really take this seriously because you're doing all that brought him to third baptist church. mr. williams knew the right place to come to. he came to our service on sunday morning. reverend amos brown and the san francisco chapter of the naacp have called on all levels of government, from city to federal, asking for investigation, to find who's responsible and to accelerate their investigation. so this young man will not get any more

of this bigoted terrorist acts here in the city of saint francis, a city that claims to be progressive and liberal. this is video showing a suspect hiding their identity under a hood and mask. terry's neighbors are now raising funds to get him a more comprehensive security system. they're also asking anyone with cameras to check them for any suspicious activity. on april 26th at 12:30 a.m. and the second one on may 5th minutes before 2 a.m. now's the time to stand up. now is not the time to sit back and say, i don't want to be involved. the community will come here at alamo square park in support of terry for a rally that happens at 1030. sfpd meanwhile, still looking for the person or people responsible. gia vang today in the bay also happening today. a new chapter for the city of oakland as its new police chief, floyd mitchell, officially takes the reins. chief mitchell takes the helm of opd after serving as chief of police in lubbock, texas this marks the end of a 15

month period without a permanent chief. oakland mayor shang tao says mitchell has been doing a lot of work behind the scenes since she announced his appointment a month and a half ago. he's working closely with interim chief allison and also assistant chief chief tony jones. we're really bringing him up to the different strategies that we are working on, but the first order, of course, when he gets in is always about bringing down crime rates. tao says the new chief is coming into an improved oakland, touting that oakland's overall crime rates for the first part of 2024 are down more than 30% compared to the same time last year. at the same time, opd is announcing it is welcoming a dozen new officers, making it fully staffed for the first time in years. three women and nine men graduated yesterday from the 193rd basic recruit academy. the new officers say that in addition to helping protect oakland, they hope they can make

at the end of last summer, raging waters announced it wasn't renewing its lease and closing for good because of low turnout this past february, san jose mayor matt mahan said the park would reopen under new management and city leaders announced it yesterday that it will be renamed, folks, we're very, very devastated, as was i and hundreds of other people in the community because of the nostalgia and the good memories. so, with this water park coming back into fruition and an opportunity for residents to enjoy once again, the feeling is definitely excitement. the newly renamed water park will have an opening ceremony sometime after memorial day weekend. no exact date has been announced. well, you can celebrate asian american, native hawaiian and pacific islander heritage month with a polynesian party. the kumu hula association has deep roots in hayward, as many native hawaiians left the islands, making their home here back in

little, and it's still applies today. you continue to learn more outside. right now we're off to a mostly clear start. sunny already warming those temperatures up through the south bay. nearing that 60 degree mark. and we're going to keep things mostly clear for the day, not only in hayward, the south bay, but continuing with that warmth. so the time of the morning to get those walks in is definitely right. now, once we get into that 11:00 hour noon, it's going to be sizzling in some spots. we'll do 87 in morgan hill to 86 in cupertino. as we make our way into the east bay. this is where our microclimates are going to be showing just a little bit more. we're going to cool things down through oakland, almost that 80 degree mark. and as we start to go over the hills, we go to 89 in walnut creek and 91 out towards antioch. and of course, it wouldn't be a microclimate forecast without going on to the peninsula and looking from 84 in palo alto to just a little bit cooler in san mateo, at 75 to some upper 60s, along the coast. so we're dealing with that patchy fog there this morning, but it should start to clear out as we go on into about 10:00. so

just be careful with those visibility changes out there. we'll do 71 in downtown san francisco and up into the north bay. we go. we might want to celebrate mom out towards wine country. we'll look at the mid 80s out towards napa, 74, in mill valley for the music festival there. but you go up along 101 and you get to 92. in ukiah. and speaking about going up, we could have another shot of looking at those aurora borealis later tonight. the forecast is trending at a little bit more to the north. so yesterday i think was definitely the peak of this. don't be alarmed if things start to change with our communications, the phones, the alarm systems. that's just because the sun has so much energy. and that could be causing some issues there. as far as our mother's day plans, it's still looking gorgeous, just a touch cooler as we go on along the coastline to some upper 60s in san francisco, but some 70 bayshore and 80s to celebrate. mom in our inland valleys with maybe a nice picnic, a nice stroll that will be nice to celebrate all of our mother figures in our lives. seven day forecast for us shows us staying dry over the next

seven days through the city. some days will be a touch cooler than others, but so far the rain stays away and our inland valleys will watch for that patchy fog once again tomorrow morning. but 80s all week long, not a single rain icon right there for the next seven days. i think that makes a lot of moms happy, especially lieu. yeah. yes. finally, cynthia, we love it. thanks 720 right now we have much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, a trip to an italian opera right here in the bay area. coming up, a two day run. you won't want to miss this weekend on our bob redell is waiting in the wings with a preview. it's the $100,000 lucky lotus all cash giveaway at great resort and casino. saturday, may 25th. one winner of 50,000 cash plus 100 winners of $500 guaranteed the $100,000 lucky lotus all cash giveaway. only at graton resort and casino. honey why are my shirts so wrinkled and smell like mildew? don't let

the piece. it's, it's very emotional. and do you talk to people, audience members afterwards after they've been to their first opera and they've heard you? and what do they say? i mean, we hope that they are really feeling the sort of the deep emotional connection that and writing that puccini has created because, you know, even though it's old, it really still relates to today in my opinion. hey again, happy mother's day. i know your newborn is going to be here, here in mamma on stage. it's going to be a great treat. all right. passionate for puccini's only two performances saturday and sunday. here at the california theater in downtown san jose, you can go to symphony san jose. org to get more information. it's sounds like it's going to be an absolute treat here in san jose. bob redell today in the bay. wow, a treat indeed. bob. thank you so much for that. we have much more ahead for you on today in the bay. coming up. it is graduation weekend at uc berkeley. protesters interrupt one ceremony yesterday, and now students and their families wait

coverage of the rising tensions on college campuses. this a look at university of pennsylvania yesterday, police arrested 30 pro-palestinian protesters as the demonstrators ended up blocking an intersection near the penn campus after their encampment had been cleared out. meanwhile, back here in the bay area the encampment at uc berkeley continues to grow about three weeks in this, despite the big commencement ceremony happening today, some students now preparing for the possibility of demonstrations taking over their graduation day. this, of course, coming as student protesters express their opposition to the war in gaza. the encampment outside of sproul hall, approaching its third week. as mentioned, pro-palestinian demonstrators interrupted yesterday's law school graduation ceremony. today's graduating students are waiting to see what happens. i really only thought about that

today. for the first time, i'm a little bit like i was like, oh, i didn't even think about that. but i mean, i'm sure it'll be fine either way. with that comes dialog with all these different, diverse groups and peoples. and i think with that comes a better understanding of each other and that's, you know, better for our future and for ourselves. a uc berkeley spokesperson tells us they do not discuss security protocols. but at this time, today's commencement will go on as planned. also adding that, quote, berkeley graduation ceremonies have been venues for all sorts of protests for many years. this year, like every year in the past, our efforts will focus on ensuring the ceremony can be successfully held and on supporting the ability of graduating students, their friends and families to safely enjoy and take part in an incredibly meaningful day. amid those college protests across the country, tensions in the middle east continue to rise. this morning, an evacuation has

been ordered in rafah that will impact the more than 1 million palestinians sheltering there. the u.s, now criticizing israel's use of american weapons. the biden administration says it's, quote, reasonable to assess that israel has violated international law in gaza by using weapons provided by the united states, but that it hasn't violated terms of u.s. weapons agreements. this comes after cease fire negotiations are on pause after israel entered rafah . israel says rafah is hamas's latest remaining stronghold and will attack whether or not the u.s. keeps giving weapons. it was one of the darkest chapters of the israel-hamas war. the besiege of gaza's premier neonatal hospital. for days, doctors and patients were trapped. six months later, nbc news has an exclusive update on one baby who was left behind.

and it's quite miraculous. here's nbc's erin mclaughlin. these images shocked the world. babies struggling to survive, sparking international calls to save them. six died during the siege at al-shifa hospital, according to doctors. nbc news was there when 31 babies dehydrated and sick, were evacuated to rafah and then to cairo, but a little girl remained behind at the al emirati hospital in gaza, known only as malak, arabic for angel, named after the angel who saved her life. many children in gaza. schiff by angeles back then, doctors told nbc news that malak had survived much more than the siege. her neighborhood had been bombed, her family killed, unbalanced, found this baby in the tree. our family died, malak

was just two days old when she arrived at al-shifa. an orphan, remarkably stable. her condition only deteriorated during the siege, when doctors say they were forced to prepare her formula using contaminate water. it's been four months since the evacuate mission and malak is thriving. thanks to amal abu khalil, a doctor at the al emirati neonatal unit. doctor cottle watched for two months as the little girl lay alone in the hospital incubator in rafah. i got so close to her, she says. after everything she's been through, i promised to make it up to her. and so the 32 year old doctor volunteered to take her home. as a single parent. i leave her with my sister and she takes care of her when i'm at work, she says. everyone treats her as if she is their biological daughter. malak is a regular visitor to the hospital

that saved her life, and while they're still checking for any surviving relatives in this brutal war that has claimed the lives of so many, doctor khalil is now embracing her new role as a mother. erin mclaughlin, nbc news. back here in the bay area, we have developing news. this morning. three people are in the hospital after a head on crash in contra costa county. seven people in two separate cars were hurt. it happened around 740 last night on marsh creek road in brentwood. it is unclear what led to that crash and an investigation is underway. following this fire at a church in oakland. this is saint andrew missionary baptist. the fire broke out around eight last night. firefighters say the flames jumped to the building next door, which fortunately was a vacant home. no injuries have

been reported. a balanced budget with no new taxes. governor gavin newsom revealed his new spending plan yesterday. it closes both this year's remaining $27 billion budget shortfall as well as next year's projected $28 billion deficit. our values continue to allow us to thrive and those values i believe are foundationally intact and despite some tough choices that we are making and proposing to make in this budget, the budget does call for a pause on planned expansion of subsidized child care and would eliminate 10,000 unfilled state positions. the plan also would reduce the state's prison population by nearly 5000 inmates. the california republican party slammed the revised budget. it released a statement accusing governor newsom of being, quote, utterly

reckless with the state's finances. the statement also said in part, quote, if only newsom and democrats would include legislative republicans and their common sense solutions at the negotiating table, then perhaps our once golden state would finally reverse its downward spiral. meanwhile witness testimony continued yesterday at former president trump's trial in manhattan. madeleine westerhout, who served as white house aide in the trump administration, was back on the stand for cross-examination by trump's attorneys. she had testified about checks that trump signed in the oval office and a meeting scheduled with trump and michael cohen, who at the time was trump's attorney. cohen is expected to be a key witness in the case, and he will testify next week. mr. trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments made to adult film actress stormy daniels. the northern

radio frequency blackouts for sure. radio communication will be a bit difficult over the next couple of days, and we might even occasionally see cell phone, signals being affected or your gps, is more vulnerable that solar storm is expected to continue tonight into tomorrow, so i guess keep your eyes to the skies still to come on today in the bay, we are helping you connect to your teen when it comes to their mental health. the steps one psychologist says you can take. even if that teen doesn't feel like talking to you . sure, i've never surfed before, but if i don't get all this, technically i'm not getting miles. i'm not getting miles. then my flight to maui won't be covered. so by getting the ultra surf package, i'm actually one step closer to going pro. before it starts the

people never, ever anticipate needing a lawyer. and finding the right lawyer can make all the difference. online reviews and ratings are not always the best indication of a lawyer's true skill or competence. you need to do your homework. you want someone who's successful handled cases just like yours. in the past, someone who is respected in the field. look for referrals from judges, other lawyers, and people you trust, and check the state bar website to make sure the lawyer's record is spotless. most importantly, you want a lawyer who's not just qualified, but who's a good fit for you. so talk to the lawyer yourself. find somebody you like and trust. this is an important personal relationship, and you want to get it right. walkup personal injury law. visit us at walkup law.com or call us at 866. walkup law two. i need a pair of vintage cowboy boots.

half of teenagers want their parents to reach out more and talk to them about how they're doing and how they're feeling. but maybe you're saying to yourself, yeah, right. not my teenager. a psychologist tells us, maybe try not talking. if your child does come to you with something or you're asking a question, then you got to listen to the answer. and you may not like what they're saying. you may be concerned about what they're saying, rightfully so. but in that moment, if you just listen it will give you so much capital later on to have the conversation that you want to have with them later. if you need help getting started, go to sounded out together org. you can learn more about emotional well-being, how best to communicate with your teen, and when to just listen. for more stories like this one, join me and the today in the bay team weekdays starting at five in the morning. you can also watch nbc bay area news whenever you want. we are on 24/7 on roku and other streaming platforms. i'm kris
