proposing a new law to try to slow it down. ktvu tom vacar tells us the bill would require more staffing around self-checkout stands. >> welcome. if you have your la senator, lola smallwood, cuevas says self checkout lines are a free way to theft in fact, self-checkout machines cause about 16 times more loss than cashiers checkout stands. >> with an estimated 10 billion in annual losses attributed to the machines. >> the senators proposed a law that sets a minimum staffing level of one worker for every two self checkout machines, a law she says will lower theft and save jobs. >> loan workers have become easy targets of theft and violence, and they're too often forced to stock merchandise, operate checkout, cater to customers, all while trying to monitor their stores for retail theft. >> leticia acosta is a grocery store employee in pinole, and says she was beaten when three

women attempted to walk out of the store without paying for their groceries. >> at my store, i'm responsible for managing the entire self checkout area, but i also get tasked with processing money orders. moneygram and selling lottery tickets. and all these things take away from the time of monitoring and assisting the customers. >> the prosecutors alliance of california says store staffs deter thefts better than the meager 10% of people who get caught. >> for those of us in law enforcement, we understand that deterrence comes from the fear of getting caught, not from the harshness of the punishment. >> shoppers we met say the proposed law probably needs to be refined and negotiated. >> in a way, i think it's a start. yes, it kind of forces the businesses to think about it more than just kind of letting it go, whether or not it needs to be an actual law. >> that would be a secondary question for me. i would have to look into that one. >> you can be sure that a lot of retailers and a lot of other

powerful economic interests are in opposition to this law, and they will use that power and that influence to try to change it. we'll see what happens. tom baker, ktvu, fox two news well, this past weekend, storm brought a big day of snow to the sierra. >> according to uc berkeley's central sierra snow lab, it was the snowiest day of the entire season with more than 26in of snowfall. business booming all weekend at palisades, one of the last ski resorts still open there in the tahoe area. with that, we check back in with bill martin. may. snow. >> it happens. yeah, that was it does. but not to that extent. i mean that is a that was a significant that's a good event in february or january. you know, 26in or 2ft of snow in 24 hours to happen in may. is pretty unusual. it's pretty pretty impressive. and of course, we had the rain in the city up to almost an inch of rain. other areas up to an inch and a half, two inches. so it was really a very beneficial storm outside we go. this shot was we were looking at a little earlier. we saw the fog kind of shooting across the picture from

sutro tower, and now the fog is gone. it's breezy out there and the fog has been getting shoot up a little bit. the fog. we back tomorrow. the winds have died down a touch, but still today we had wind gusts was five 6:00 this evening. we had wind gusts up to 3035 miles an hour. winds are going to be kind of the story the next couple of days. they're going to start clocking right now. that's kind of a northwest. they're going to these arrows are going to start coming this way, which is a northerly wind maybe north northwest something like this. but that's a warming direction. that's a direction that'll get you funneling down the central valley. so a wind advisory there. it's a direction that will get you compressional heating, which will bring our temperatures back into the 80s, mid 80s, maybe even upper 80s with some low 90s possible. it'd be on the far inland fringes, but like, say, sacramento, they're going to hit their first 90 degree, temperature of the season this week. i would suspect we're a little bit cooler. obviously because we're going to get a little bit of westerly fetch off the ocean that that wind direction north northwest. so temperatures warmer than they were last night at this time. we've got the

winds. i just want to go i look at the colors is what you do and see how the big reds in here on wednesday morning. that's going to be the height of the wind. advisory and you notice it's out kind of by napa fairfield davis down into sacramento. this area is going to funnel the winds. and so it's possible i wouldn't be surprised if they issued some kind of fire alert just because it's it'll be pretty warm tomorrow. and then next day will be pretty warm. and so you could see some fuels drying out enough that with wind gusts they may be concerned. and those winds continue into wednesday afternoon and evening. so the forecast highs for tomorrow where they are a lot like today. it'll be a little bit warmer in some places. the fog will be around, but then that should be the end of it as things start to clear out. sunny and nice tomorrow. warmer warm, nice and warm. i got rid out of the words and oh, mother's day. okay, a little something different, but you get the idea, right? just just just fringing on low 90s, especially on that saturday. and the, you know, thursday and friday too because the upper 80s, maybe some low 90s, especially inland valleys, i'll
