now i feel bad for mike because it's all his stuff. >> you know, we are getting a clearer picture tonight of the damage done by the intense rains in the north bay as residents begin to clean up. good evening. i'm jana katsuyama. >> and i'm mike mibach. tonight in sonoma county. cleanup underway as flood waters from

the russian river continue to recede, the town of guerneville hit hard by several days of heavy rainfall. >> ktvu joey cortez is there. live with a look at how the community is trying to recover. joey. >> well, jenna, one couple that we spoke with says they had just moved into their home near the river and didn't get enough warning to protect their property in time from the floodwaters. where i was standing here, by friday afternoon, the water was all the way up to the half point middle of this sign here where it says, please be careful. if i was standing here, then i'd have been well underwater. as flood waters from the russian river continue to recede, the damage is becoming more visible for travis foust and her partner in guerneville. it's an emotional sight. >> it's over. it's gone. everything. because i knew it wasn't. we couldn't save it. >> you know, the home the couple just moved into less than two weeks ago along a tributary of

the river, taking on more than three feet of water, flooding the basement on friday. still filled with moving boxes. >> i feel bad for mike because it's all his stuff, you know? i just wish that he didn't have to go through this. >> her partner's truck and tools, which he relies on for his job as a contractor along with her car, all lost to the flood. adding insult to injury, a leaky roof causing more damage upstairs so we're flooded from the top to the bottom. cleanup continues at the nearby guerneville pee-wee golf tim bosque's t-rex is a fixture on the course, towering over the roof, but looks a lot smaller in this 2019 flood. photo of a guy in a canoe reaching the dinosaur's mouth. >> so that was a big one. >> the flooding so common out here that they've left markers for all the different levels that they've hit. this time about three feet. but over the years it's gone up to 15ft. back in 1986. >> it's just a pain to have to

clean up every time. so yeah, and we move most of the stuff upstairs beforehand. >> boesky estimates the damages to his business at around $200,000 from this latest storm, and even though he knows it will happen again, he's staying put. >> it's just a great place to live. and good, good people here and you just kind of put up with this. >> now that couple does have renter's insurance and there's a gofundme account set up to help them recover the tools and that truck that they've lost so they can get back to work as soon as possible. >> mike, jenna and joey i mean longtime locals, really no stranger to the big winter storms there along the river, but did you run across anyone concerned about getting even more rain potentially later this week? this season? after all that flooding? >> yeah, it's something that they're certainly thinking about right now. we're getting some light rain. we're at where we're at right now, but it's been coming and going throughout the day, at least for this afternoon. there is a flood advisory, though, for small streams in the area of sonoma

county, central sonoma county, to be specific, includes forestville until 4 a.m. >> back to you. all right, joey huerta there at johnson beach, thanks so much for that report. and authorities in sonoma county say that they are investigating the discovery of two bodies that were found yesterday following those intense rains. both of them were found early saturday morning. one person was in a flooded car near mayes canyon road, just off highway 116, in guerneville. law enforcement believe that the victim was trying to drive through the rising waters. another person was found dead in piner creek near centurion drive. police have not yet said whether that incident was storm related. >> a murder suspect was arrested for fare evasion at an east bay bart station. bart police say 36 year old jonathan calvin wright was arrested at the bayfair station in san leandro without a valid fare. wright was wanted for murder in san francisco. now, last year, police say wright was arrested at the lake merritt bart station in oakland when he was stopped for fare

evasion, while also facing an arrest warrant. >> roughly 500 workers at the marriott marquis in san francisco walked off the job this morning. one job should be enough. they joined 2000 hotel workers in the city who have been on strike for the past 64 days. a total of six hotels owned by the marriott, hyatt and hilton are affected by this strike. the union is urging travelers to avoid eating, meeting or sleeping at any hotel where those workers are picketing. >> there's momentum building for a recovery. we want guests to come back to the hotels, but we're not willing to sacrifice our health care. >> a marriott hotel spokesperson said that the hotels have well-established protocols in place to operate during a strik, and they remain available to reach an agreement. that is fair. they say to all parties. >> this morning, chp responded to a four car collision on interstate 80 in solano county. one person was arrested at the scene for dui. that crash happened around 140 in the

morning on eastbound 80 just before air base parkway. chp had to shut down four lanes of the interstate. all lanes have reopened since then. a spokesperson with chp says two people were hurt in the crash, one of them suffering major injuries. the other minor. authorities have not released any information about the victims or about the person who was taken into custody. a san francisco judge has dismissed several charges against most people who were arrested for blocking traffic on the golden gate bridge in april, while protesting the war in gaza. meantime, the san francisco district attorney's office says seven people were charged with felony conspiracy, false imprisonment and other charges. they will be back in court on december 6th. attorneys filed a motion to dismiss all charges against the group of 26 people who were arrested during the protest. >> turning to sports now, the san francisco 49ers took on the green bay packers in wisconsin today, and they came in with a few backups, getting to start because of injuries, including at quarterback. >> bailey joins us now here in

studio. it was a tough ask to go out and get that w and in this case it really wasn't even a close game. >> yeah really the packers kind of had this one from really the first play of the game. it felt like. and of course the niners without some of their big star players. it's really it's back to the drawing board for the niners right. tom brady said in this one you can't win until you can keep from losing. and i think he really hits the nail on the head there. the niners again without brock purdy without nick bosa without trent williams. a lot of their star players that they rely so heavily on in this one really was green bay the whole way out. you see brock purdy there he was sitting out with shoulder soreness something that the niners really struggled with today was having too many players on the field. they had back to back 12. man on the field penalties kyle shanahan obviously visibly upset by that. and in the second quarter here a glimmer of hope. the niners in the red zone brandon allen finds george kittle wide open there. that gives the niners their first points of the game. overall just too many mistakes though by the niners defense.

green bay scored on six of their first ten possessions. they finished with 325 yards of offense. josh jacobs, green bay's running back. he had three rushing touchdowns from the one yard line in this one. he finished the day with 106 yards on 26 carries. so the packers take this 138 to 10. they improved to eight and three on the season. the niners on the other hand they slip to five and six. >> i'm really not concerned right now about how many guys we missed today. we don't play good enough. so that's not a factor. but when you are missing some guys, you do have to be better. and when you have those penalties, we didn't stop the run like we did. and having those three turnovers in the second half, that's how you get embarrassed when did brandon. >> so there you have it kyle shanahan calling this one embarrassing. those unforced errors from the niners. the road really does not get any easier for this team. they have a long flight back to green or from green bay rather. and then next sunday they turn around and they get josh allen in the bills. >> the bills who are going to be well rested because they're not

even playing today. they get a bye week this week. >> exactly. so it'll be it's a tough road ahead. >> yeah. get healthy and give the bills the best. all right bailey thank you. appreciate it. >> thanks, bailey. well, daly city's cow palace has been transformed into victorian london. this is the opening weekend of the 40th annual great dickens fair. actors are dressed up as victorian characters inspired by charles dickens. guests can enjoy holiday shopping, live performances and traditional roasted chestnuts. we spoke with the executive producer, whose parents were the ones who founded the fair, and got a little insight into the 1200 people who helped create this experience. >> they are all performers and vendors who have made beautiful handcrafts and theater professionals, people who come together to craft this environment and welcome all of the guests in each of our 11 days of the show. and it does take a village as they say. it really is a marvelous community of people, many of whom are here in their third generation, and the dickens fair will be open

through december 22nd. >> all right. all that rain we had in the bay area because of the recent storm did bring some new snow to the sierra. we're going to take you live to the mountains and a check of the conditions this holiday week. >> and we do have some scattered showers, but nothing, nothing like what we experienced a few ago. i' (♪) when you have moderate to severe eczema, it's okay to show off. with dupixent, show off your clearer skin and less itch. because you have plenty of reasons to show off your skin. with dupixent, the number one prescribed biologic by dermatologists and allergists, you can stay ahead of your eczema. it helps block a key source of inflammation inside the body

snow up in the sierra. this is what it looked like. this morning at palisades. you can see the fresh blanket of snow there. a welcome sight for those resorts opening up this weekend, and we want to show you a live look at interstate 80. >> if we can get the traffic camera up. it sounds like up by donner summit. that's one of the classic places when people are heading up to the mountains, you can see that it looks like people have their headlights on maybe a little bit slick, but not too bad. certainly not compared to what we've seen at

some time. so if you are heading up though, make sure that you check with caltrans to find out whether there are chain controls in place. >> yeah, look like it's a good time to roll right there on 80 right now. all right. for more on the conditions, we're joined by kevin cooper of kali pass resorts group. all right, coop, tell us about the last 48 hours. from your perspective, how has it been up there? >> it's been pretty good. it's an interesting storm for sure. it's been, you know, the remnants of the bomb cyclone with some wind patterns into play, which really put most of that moisture up north of i-80, up on top of i-80. you're, you know, you're sugar bowl boreal. they saw close to 20in of snow up towards shasta multiple feet down towards south shore. five six inches at the most. maybe a centimeter in lake level. but this next round is really set to start giving the entire basin and the west slope all the way down to central california, trying to peak multiple feet of snow, 1 to 2ft in the next 72

hours. but what a great start to the season, my friend. >> all right. well, coop, we're having a little difficulty hearing your audio. it sounds like there's a little interference. we're going to see if we can get that worked out and maybe come back to you in a short time. but 20in of snow up there. wow. that is a lot. but we're going to bring in bill martin now with a look at some of the weather conditions. they really got what we were seeing here in rain. they really saw some up there in the mountains. >> yeah, it was an awesome storm. i mean, come on, we had record all time record three day total in santa rosa. now that does equate to snow in the mountains as that atmospheric river went through. but it was pretty high snow levels. these next series of systems. nothing, nothing nothing. beautiful sunset. if you're not looking at your tv. nothing at all like what we experienced, what we experienced was a ten out of ten, especially from the golden gate bridge north. the next system is coming in the next two days. scattered showers, no big deal. west slope of the sierra nevada does have a winter storm warning in effect. and that's because the clouds, the ones,

even the ones that went through, did they get stacked up there, right? we talked about that. it's orographic effect. they're going to get that. sierra nevada is going to dam that that up a little bit. so they're going to get snow. they're going to get like coop says they're going to get over a foot of snow. most likely. that winter storm warning stays in effect through tuesday. so today is sunday. so they got a couple of days. but for us nothing like what we just saw. here's where the scattered showers are. we might see a scattered shower tonight, but again we're talking 10th of an inch, quarter of an inch, things like that. nothing to immense because remember, just a few days ago we were talking about, well, santa rosa, you know, well over a couple of feet or over well over a foot of rain in, in just 36 hours. so we are looking at a much different set of metrics in terms of the weather, in terms of the atmospheric river and the moisture available. you can see from that satellite image, there's not a lot of moisture available in this next round of system. so it's going to be kind of sparse as it comes through. and again, i keep hearing, you know, all this storm continues. this doesn't continue. that storm was

that storm. this storm is not a storm. it's unsettled kind of scattered shower activity. i think i made the point, right. yeah. so it's california. this is what happens. we get the bomb cyclone slash atmospheric river. that was amazing. and it came at an awesome time because rivers were low. creeks were low, reservoirs were low. we could take the water. oroville and shasta, the two largest surface reservoirs in the state that provide us with most of our water. they got hammered and they had room to fill it up, so we captured a lot of the water. the marin county watershed as well. so it was the perfect storm at the perfect time. any later, if that was february, would be a mess but not work well, i'll be back here with the full forecast coming up. all right. >> thank you. bill. >> well, section of highway 70 in plumas county is closed to traffic in both directions. the chp says that there are multiple slides between grandview station and the greenville y in the feather river canyon. the highway is expected to be closed for at least one week, as crews work to clear that debris, and you can always stay up to date

up in the sierra. we are joined again live by kevin coop cooper of calippus resorts group. kevin, you were talking a little bit about the amount of snow that you got up there. we were just checking the sierra avalanche center that says that today's avalanche risk is rated at around moderate because of the snow that fell. what kind of advice do you have for people who might be heading up to the slopes? >> well, you know, right now we've got that second system that's coming in. that bill was just talking to you. so you've got the system that came in. it was heavy and wet. got a little

bit light. so you've got two layers that we're looking at in the backcountry right now. this next round that's coming in is going to start out a little bit wet and heavy. so pretty much it's going to layer like a layer cake. so we really got to watch. that will probably be considerable by tuesday. again we're looking at 1 to 2ft. that's a conservative side of it. then down the west slope down towards china peak 3 to 4ft. so that's a lot of snow in a short period of time. but a great setup as we go into the thanksgiving weekend because this system will push out and then clear up. most resorts will be opening up more terrain. you know mountain operations teams are going to have to go out and take a look at it and assess the different regions that they have in and around the different runs to open them up. but what a great start to the season. and, you know, really this system went north. but what we're going to get at the end of the day is going to be the perfect setup for the holiday weekend. and as we move towards christmas, i mean, you talk about the holiday weekend. >> i mean, a couple of weeks ago, i was worried because it was pretty dry. and you know, i know they were making snow up there, but it's just kind of not

the same. so how big a deal is it to have this, this storm come through pre thanksgiving when you're talking about the financial aspect of this for the resorts. >> great question mike. and you remember last year at this time we were all we were all counting our pennies right. the machine made systems were going and pushing and pushing. that cost a lot of money to make that snow. and then we get really concerned because if we get these big atmospheric rivers in, if they're warm, they wash off all that new snow. so this is great for the economy. this is great for the resorts to start bringing that income in. whether you're north of i-80, shasta up north pacific northwest, all the way down to china peak, it's going to be a great holiday. but i'll tell you what, people need to wait, watch and see. make sure that you have those emergency road kits as you come up and over. we've already seen i-80 and the challenges on highway 50. once those systems start moving down south towards state route 88, it's going to be challenging. so wait for the storm to break and then you're making your way up to tahoe. got it. >> and one of the things that we have seen in the past is kind of like a push to try and get more

families, get more people up there. are there any new things they're doing for the holidays in terms of the resorts to try and give some specials or other kinds of breaks for people going up there? >> that's a great question. and really what you need to do if you're looking for deals, book as early as you can up to three days in advance, one, two, three, four weeks in advance is the best time to book because that's where you're going to save your money. but also if you're going up to some of the major resorts, make sure you check their reservation system that's new over the last 2 or 3 years, you need to make a reservation at some of those larger resorts so you get your parking. if you don't have a reservation, you're not going to be able to go for that day. takes out the spontaneity a little bit. so prepare for that before you come up. make sure you go online, see what the resorts policy is, and make sure you have that place to park so you can get up on the mountain and ride. >> what's your plan? are you going to you're going to charge the mountain first and then get your turkey on thanksgiving after. >> that's what i'm thinking about there, mike. right there. you know, we got a roshambo

between caroline and i. and who's going to cook the turkey and who's going to ride? >> have a great holiday. we always appreciate your time. have a great night, too. >> thanks so much. >> take care guys. we'll see you on the mountain. >> sounds good. >> all right. >> well, turning to other news, a new poll is showing that there is a shifting trend in gun ownership and political parties. men who identify as republican are still the main gun owners in the country. but the number of republican women owning guns has jumped 14% in the last five years. that's according to a new gallup survey. and while the gun ownership gender gap has shrunk the gap in owners by political party grew in the same time period, among democratic party men, gun owning rates fell 7% and also dropped 5%. among men who identify as independents. >> canadian prime minister justin trudeau, facing criticism tonight from lawmakers in his country after protests friday night in montreal, turned violent as fox's madeline rivera reports. >> critics accused trudeau of not doing enough to keep the situation under control. >> montreal police say there are more protests scheduled for

violence must be condemned wherever we see them. the rcmp are in communication with local police. there must be consequences. and rioters held accountable. the protesters are denying the claims of anti-semitism, saying they're demonstrating against the, quot, ongoing complicity of nato countries in the war in the middle east. montreal police say they are expecting more arrests from friday night as they comb through surveillance footage. in washington, matthew rivera, fox news. >> thousands of people gathered in india's capital for an annual pride parade celebrating their diversity, all while raising concerns over what they say are india's restrictive lgbtq laws. a large group danced in the streets before walking to an area right near the parliament buildings. one attendee says it felt great to see people feeling confident in who they are. >> it's so good. i mean, i love seeing so many people being people, being out and proud and just living their lives and showing to the other people that they can be who they are. they

don't have to be afraid of anything. they don't have to be ashamed of who they are, and they just like being happy out there. i just love it. >> last year, india's high court ruled to not legalize same sex marriage, a decision that disappointed lgbtq plus groups in india and around the world. the court urged the state to make sure same sex couples do not face discrimination, and also called for steps to raise awareness about lgbtq plus identity for the general public. >> legendary game show host chuck woolery died this weekend at the age of 83. tmz is reporting that woolery died at his home in texas. woolery was best known as the original host of wheel of fortune. he also hosted the popular game show love connection the dating show. he was inducted into the american tv game show hall of fame in 2007. he eventually became a podcaster, conservative commentator, and supporter of president elect donald trump. multiple professional sports leagues are issuing warnings to

that americans will dig a little

like mashed potatoes and gravy. you know, you can boil potatoes and make mashed potatoes in a pot on top of your stove while your turkey is working in the oven, and while the turkey is typically cooked thanksgiving day, you can't forget to defrost it ahead of time. the rule of thumb is usually for every 5 pounds. it's about 24 full hours to defrost, so if you're planning around a 15 pound turkey, i would say anywhere from 3 to 4 days is how long you should budget. >> meanwhile, asking your guests to bring some sides can greatly reduce your kitchen responsibilities. >> doing a potluck style is a great way to get that picturesque thanksgiving day spread, without it necessarily being all on your shoulders to accomplish. >> you can also make desserts beforehand, but with the prices of eggs, butter, and sugar all up, you may want to pass that task on to your guest as well. i'm chanley painter fox news. >> all right, thanks for watching, ev ybody. we'll be back er
