TRIGGERED BY THE WINTER STORM THAT YOU WERE MENTIONING.

WE SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME TRAVELERS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE THEIR FLIGHTS ARRIVE AND LEAVE ON TIME.

BUT TONIGHT, THAT IS BECOMING LESS THE CASE.

TERMINAL ONE IS EVEN MORE CONGESTED BECAUSE OF THE CONTINUING CONSTRUCTION ALL AROUND IT.

AND THE AIRPORT AUTHORITY TONIGHT IS ISSUING ANOTHER ADVISORY A TELLING SANDY AIKINS TO AVOID PARKING HERE ON SITE AND SHOW UP AT LEAST TWO HOURS BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT.

DON'T CUT IT CLOSE.

>> WHAT IS THE WEATHER LIKE THERE?

THAT FLIGHT IS ON TIME.

THAT IS THE ONLY POTENTIAL PROBLEM.

BUT I HAD EXTRA ROOM IN MY SUITCASE.

I THREW IN A COUPLE EXTRA LAYERS OF CLOTHING.

>> TRAFFIC AND TEMPERATURES ARE AT THE HEART OF THE TRAVELING TROUBLE.

>> -8 DEGREES AND SNOWING.

>> JOHN COLLINS AND HIS WIFE ESCAPED CHICAGO LOOKING FOR A WARM WEATHER CHRISTMAS IN SAN DIEGO.

THEIR PLAN WORKED.

>> IT WAS JUST -30 WINCHELL AND -8 DEGREES AS WE WERE HEADED OUT.

SO IT WAS PRETTY BRUTAL.

>> MEANWHILE THE SCHRODERS HAVE THEIR HEAVY COATS ON READY FOR ATLANTA AND ONTO ATLANTIS AND MAYBE HOPE FOR TOMORROW.

>> WE WILL HAVE TO DRIVE AFTER THAT SO MAY BE ABOUT MIDNIGHT IS THE TIME WE WILL BE ABLE TO GET OUR HEADS DOWN.

>> THE GOOD NEWS THEY MADE IT TO SAN DIEGO.

THE BAD NEWS IS THEIR LUGGAGE DID NOT.

YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE LINE FOR TRAVELERS WITH LOST LUGGAGE.

THEY ARE TRYING TO GET UNITED WITH.

MEANWHILE, THE CONGESTION PROBLEM I TALKED ABOUT EARLIER AS WE WERE DRIVING IN, THERE WERE LITERALLY PEOPLE JUMPING OUT OF THE CARS AND PULLING THEIR SUITCASES IN HOPES OF MAKING IT TO THEIR FLIGHT IN TIME.

SO THE ADVISORY IS SERIOUS.

DON'T CUT IT CLOSE.

>> WHAT DOES THE FLIGHT STATUS LOOK RIGHT RIGHT NOW?

>> THERE ARE A LOT LESS ON TIME NOTIFICATIONS ON THE BOARD.

>> THANK YOU FOR THE REPORT.

>> JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS, COVID AND SUITCASES ARE TRENDING DOWN.

THAT IS GOOD NEWS BUT THE MESSAGE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON IS THE SAME AS THE OTHERS.

PROTECT THOSE MOST AT RISK.

MATT HOFFMAN HAS THE LATEST.

>> THE AMOUNT OF COVID IN SAN DIEGO'S WASTEWATER WAS SPIKING UP BUT THIS YEAR OFFICIALS ARE SEEING A DOWNWARD TREND.

>> WE CERTAINLY ARE NOT WHERE WE WERE LAST YEAR AT THIS TIME.

>> THE PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICER DR. WILMA WOOTEN SAYS WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN OVER THE HOLIDAYS, BUT IN YEARS PAST , WE HAVE SEEN SURGES.

>> WHEN WE GET ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE NEW YEAR, HOPEFULLY, THEN WE KNOW HOPE IS NOT A STRATEGY, BUT WE ANTICIPATE THAT THOSE NUMBERS WOULD CONTINUE TO DECLINE.

>> FEWER SAN DIEGANS ARE PRESENTING TO EMERGENCY ROOMS WITH FLULIKE SYSTEMS.

WOOTEN SAYS THAT TENDS TO HAPPEN EVERY YEAR AROUND THE HOLIDAYS BUT WE ARE ALSO SEEING SMALL DECLINES IN THE NUMBER OF FLU CASES.

>> AGAIN, ALL GOOD NEWS.

BUT THE SEASON IS NOT OVER.

WE ARE STILL KIND OF IN THE MIDST OF THE FLU SEASON.

>> VACCINATION ARE ENCOURAGED FOR BOTH THE FLU AND COVID, ESPECIALLY THOSE FOR HIGH-RISK.

IT DOES TAKE TWO WEEKS FOR PEOPLE TO GET FULL PROTECTION AGAINST SEVERE ILLNESS.

>> PEOPLE STILL HAVE NOT BEEN VACCINATED, WE ENCOURAGE THEM TO DO THAT.

THE VACCINATION WON'T REALLY HELP WITH THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, BUT IT WILL HELP BRING THE OTHER GATHERINGS OR ACTIVITIES THAT PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED IN TWO WEEKS FROM NOW.

>> CASES OF THE RESPIRATORY VIRUS RSV ARE ALSO CONTINUING TO TREND DOWN.

THE VIRUS HAS NO VACCINE.

IT IMPACTS YOUNG KIDS BUT CAN ALSO BE DEADLY FOR OLDER ADULTS.

>> THEY CONTRACT ANY TYPE OF VIRAL ILLNESS, THEY POTENTIALLY HAVE A HIGHER RISK FOR COMPLICATIONS.

DUE GENERALLY TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE ELDERLY AND THEY HAVE UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS.

>> MASKS ARE NOT MANDATED IN SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA ANYMORE BUT THEY SUGGEST THEY PUT THEM ON IN HIGH RISK SITUATIONS LIKE CROWDED INDOOR AREAS.

>> AS WE HAVE NOTICED BIG NATIONAL STORIES, THERE ARE SEND YOU THE LINKS TO THE HOUSE COMMITTEE TO REPORT ON THE JANUARY 6th INSURRECTION.

THE NEWLY RELEASED REPORT MENTIONED FIVE-TIME SALES SAN DIEGO POLITICAL CANDIDATE AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ECONOMICS ADVISOR PETER NAVARRO.

NAVARRO REFUSED TO TESTIFY BEFORE THE COMMITTEE AND TURN OVER DOCUMENTS RELATED TO THE INSURRECTION.

HE IS AWAITING A CRIMINAL TRIAL FOR CONTEMPT.

THE REPORT ALSO INVOLVED A GRAD AS ONE OF THE TRUMP LAWYERS WHO WENT ALONG WITH THE, QUOTE, BASELESS AND EXTREME CLAIMS OF ELECTION FRAUD AND A REPORT NOTES THAT THE NEWS NETWORK RAN A SEGMENT STATING THAT THE VOTING SYSTEMS HAD SWIFT VOTES FROM TRUMP TO BIDEN IN THE 2020 ELECTIONS.

THE NETWORK IS FACING A DEFAMATION LAWSUIT.

THE HOUSE PASSED A MASSIVE $1.7 TRILLION FUNDING BILL JUST AHEAD OF TONIGHT'S DEADLINE FOR GOVERNMENT FUNDING TO EXPIRE.

THE BILL SUPPORTS CRITICAL GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS AND PROVIDES EMERGENCY AID FOR NATIONAL DISASTERS AND UKRAINE.

IT ALSO INCLUDES A PROVISION AIMED AT MAKING IT HARDER TO OVERTURN A CERTIFIED PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

THE SENATE PASSED THE MISSOURI YESTERDAY.

THEY SAY IT IS CREATING A PROCESS TO TEST MORE THAN 100 INTOXICANTS TO DETERMINE WHAT IS CREATING DANGER ON THE ROADS.

>> Reporter: AT LEAST HALF OF ALL DRIVERS ARRESTED FOR DUI'S HAVE MORE THAN ONE DRUG IN THEIR SYSTEM SO SAYS JENNIFER HARMON, DIRECTOR OF THE SAN DIEGO SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT CRIME LAB.

SHE SAYS BLOOD TESTS SHOW THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT CAN MAKE SOMEONE DANGEROUS BEHIND THE WHEEL.

>> THE MOST COMMON DRUGS WE FIND IN INDIVIDUALS IN ADDITION TO ALCOHOL IS CANNABIS, METH AMPHETAMINE, COCAINE, FENTANYL.

WE ALSO SEE XANAX WHICH IS A PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION.

IN THE CRIME LAB HAS JUST GONE A MILLION-DOLLAR GRANT FROM THE CALIFORNIA OFFICE OF TRAFFIC SAFETY TO BETTER MONITOR A WIDE RANGE OF INTOXICATING DRUGS.

HARMON SAYS BY SUMMER NEXT YEAR THEY ALSO WANT TO BRING ALL THE TOXICOLOGY TESTS IN-HOUSE TO THEIR LAB RATHER THAN CONTRACT THEM OUT.

WITH DRUGS OTHER THAN ALCOHOL, BLOOD TENT ISN'T ALWAYS A GOOD TEST OF WHETHER SOMEONE IS IMPAIRED.

AUC SAN DIEGO STUDY PUBLISHED EARLIER THIS YEAR SHOWED ABOUT 50% OF PEOPLE WHO HAD JUST SMOKED MARIJUANA WERE IMPAIRED BEHIND THE WHEEL, BUT THEIR IMPAIRMENT WAS UNRELATED TO THE CONTENT OF THC FOUND IN THEIR BLOOD, SO, DETERMINING WHETHER SOMEONE IS IMPAIRED AFTER USING CANNABIS OR FENTANYL NEEDS TO BE DONE THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.

POLICE OBSERVING YOUR BEHAVIOR.

>> OF THE PERSON THEY ARE SPEAKING TO IS A PERSON THAT HAS BEEN PERFORMING THE FIELD SOBRIETY TEST AND THEY ARE PERFORMING POORLY ON THAT AND THE OFFICER HAS SEEN OTHER SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS FROM THAT PERSON THAT THEY JUST THEY ARE UNSAFE TO OPERATE A MOTOR VEHICLE, THAT IS WHEN THEY HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST THEM.

>> Reporter: IT OFTEN REQUIRES A WARRANT WHICH CAN HAPPEN IF THEY REFUSE A BLOOD OR BREATH TEST.

A POINT, OF COURSE, IS TO GET DANGEROUS DRIVERS OFF THE ROAD.

A STUDY FOUNDATION WIDE MORE THAN 200 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN IMPAIRED DRIVING CRASHES DURING THE CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR'S HOLIDAYS AT THE TURN OF 2020.

>>> TONIGHT, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES ARE KICKING OFF CHRISTMAS WEEKEND PATROLS.

THE MAXIMUM ENFORCEMENT PERIOD STARTS AT 6:01 THIS EVENING AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH 11:59 SUNDAY.

IF YOU SEE AN IMPAIRED DRIVER ALONG THE ROAD YOU CAN CALL THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AT THE NUMBER ON YOUR SCREEN.

>>> TITLE 42, THE PANDEMIC ERA POLICY RESTRICTING ASYLUM- SEEKERS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL AT LEAST DECEMBER 27th.

THAT MEANS MANY FAMILIES HOPING TO SEEK ASYLUM IN THE U.S. ARE SPENDING CHRISTMAS IN MEXICO.

MORGAN LOEW REPORTS FROM A SHELTER JUST ACROSS THE BORDER FROM ARIZONA.

>> Reporter: FROM THE OUTSIDE, THE BORDER INITIATIVE SHELTER LOOKS LIKE ANY OTHER BUILDING.

JUST A FEW HUNDRED YARDS SOUTH OF THE BORDER.

BUT, INSIDE, WITH THE BUCKLING KITCHEN, THIS HAS BECOME HOME TO DOZENS OF MIGRANTS, WAITING FOR A CHANCE TO ENTER THE U.S.

LEGALLY.

ANTONIO MARTINEZ HAS BEEN WAITING HERE FOR THREE MONTHS.

TO HIM, AND OTHERS IN THIS DINING HALL, GOING BACK HOME IS NOT AN OPTION.

>> THEY CAN'T GO BACK TO THEIR PLACES OF ORIGIN DUE TO THE REASONS WHY THEY FLED.

MOSTLY VIOLENCE.

AND THEY CAME FORWARD BECAUSE OF THE POLICY.

>> Reporter: G.I.

WORKS HERE AND SHE SAYS THE LATEST DELAY IN ENDING TITLE 42 JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS HAS CREATED ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION.

>> THE IDEA THAT IT WAS ON THE HORIZON WAS A HUGE HOPE.

THEY WERE VERY HOPEFUL AND NOW THEIR HOPES HAVE BEEN DASHED.

>> Reporter: THE PEOPLE THAT OPERATE THE SHELTER SAY THEY ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO CREATE A HOLIDAY ATMOSPHERE BUT IT STILL DOESN'T TOUCH THE FLOOR ON THE IMAGE AND SHOW THERE ARE FAMILIES HERE AND THIS HOLIDAY WILL BE A TOUGH ONE.

>> A LOT OF DONATIONS HAVE COME IN FOR CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR THE CHILDREN.

WE GIVE THOSE TO THE CHILDREN AND THE FAMILIES.

JUST GIVE THEM A LITTLE BIT OF JOY AND HOPE.

>>> OUR RECOMMENDATION FROM THE FINAL REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE INVESTIGATING THE JANUARY 6th ATTACK COMING UP AT 7:00 AFTER THE EVENING EDITION.

>>> THE CDC SAYS AN ESTIMATED 40 MILLION PEOPLE GET SICK FROM FOODBORNE ILLNESSES EVERY YEAR AND AS MELANIE GAITHER TELLS US, A RECENT REPORT HIGHLIGHTS SOME MAJOR CHANGES NEEDED TO ENSURE FOOD SAFETY ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

>> Reporter: IT HAS BEEN NEARLY A YEAR SINCE CERTAIN INFANT FORMULAS WERE RECALLED AFTER REPORTS OF BACTERIAL INFECTION.

THIS EXACERBATED A SUPPLY CHAIN SHORTAGE THAT EXTENDED TO OTHER BRANDS.

>> BEING USHERED WE HAVE A SAFE FOOD SUPPLY IS IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE.

>> Reporter: THEY SAY THERE ARE THREE MAJOR FINDINGS IN THE REPORT.

FIRST, THE FOOD SAFETY PROGRAM NEEDS TO BE ENHANCED.

SECOND, THE FDA'S NUTRITION PROGRAM MEANT TO PROVIDE GREATER ASSETS AND HEALTHIER FOOD AND NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE BUILT OUT AND ENHANCED.

FINALLY, THE AGENCY NEEDS TO FOCUS ON PREVENTION INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN.

>> MORE PRONE TO ACTION THAN DELIBERATION, IF YOU WILL.

>> Reporter: THEY SAY CONNECTING TECHNOLOGY FOR BETTER COMMUNICATION IS KEY.

THEY SAY THERE ALSO NEEDS TO BE MORE FUNDING FOR THIS HUMAN FOOD PROGRAM.

>> GETTING THE ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF FUNDING FOR THIS PROGRAM IS JUST, I HAVE USED THE WORD CRUCIAL AND I WOULD UNDERSCORE IT AGAIN.

>>> HAS CALIFORNIA'S YEARS LONG DROUGHT CONTINUES, THE STATE IS OFFERING MONEY TO FARMERS TO FOLLOW THEIR LAND.

RACHEL WULFF EXPLAINS WHAT IT MEANS FOR THE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY AND COMMUNITIES LONG- TERM.

>> I WAS EXCITED FOR A SOLUTION.

I WAS EXCITED FOR THE FUTURE OF FARMING AND PROTECTING THE RIGHT TO FARM.

>> Reporter: 80 FARMS 3500 ACRES OF ALLMOND.

SHE IS ONE OF HUNDREDS INTERESTED IN THE NEWLY CREATED LAND PROGRAM.

THE PROGRAM IS VERY UNIQUE BECAUSE IT IS FOCUSED MAKING SURE WE HAVE WET WATER FOR COMMUNITIES AND FOR OUR FORMS.

>> Reporter: A NONPROFIT TRADE ASSOCIATION, THEY SAY IT IS AN IDEA GROWING ON FARMERS, SO, IT STARTS BY LOOKING AT REDUCING AND IMMEDIATELY BANNED NEXT TO THE WATERSHEDS TO PROVIDE THAT INSTANT RELIEF TO PROTECT THE WELLS FROM COLLAPSING DURING THE DRY PERIOD.

>> GROUNDWATER DEMAND INCREASES.

THE WELLS HAVE TO GO DEEPER DEFLATING THE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF WATER.

>> THE IDEAS ACTUALLY JUST TO REDUCE THE DEMAND.

IMMEDIATELY STOPPED THE BLEED, STOP PUMPING.

>> TO DO THIS THEY ARE PROVIDING INCENTIVES UP TO 2 1/2 MILLION DOLLARS TO FARMERS TO FOLLOW FIELDS AND AREAS CALLED CRITICALLY OVERDRAFTED BASINS.

FARMERS ARE IDENTIFIED BASED ON THEIR PROXIMITY TO DRINKING WATER WELLS THAT HAVE GONE DRY OR ARE IN JEOPARDY OF GOING DRY.

>> TO BECOME COMPLIANT AND MAKE SURE WE ARE PROTECTING THE WATER WE DO HAVE, THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE LONGEVITY OF THIS PROGRAM.

>> I HOPE THE PROGRAM PLAN SAFETY FOR SUSTAINABILITY.

>> WE HAVE TO FOCUS STATEWIDE AND MAKE THIS EASY IMPLEMENTATION FOR EVERY FARMER.

>> PROVIDING AN ENVIRONMENTAL AND FINANCIAL SOLUTION FOR THE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY IN THE GOLDEN STATE.

>> THEY SET THE STANDARD AND THE DECADES OF RESEARCH IMPROVING OUR WATER AND HEALTH AND ALL OF THESE THINGS AND SO I'M NOT SURPRISED THAT ALMONDS ARE LEADING THE WAY AGAIN.

>> HERE'S YOUR WEATHER HEADLINES.

WE HAVE COOL TEMPERATURES TONIGHT, DRY WEATHER CONTINUES.

TEMPERATURES COMING UP.

TONIGHT, I'VE GOT A CLEAR AND CHILLY FORECAST.

PRETTY MUCH 40s.

NOW, LOOKING AT YOUR FUTURE CAST, SEEING SOME CLOUDS PERHAPS SOME LOW-LYING CLOUDS, FOG, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE IN THE BAY AREA AND THEN WE SEE SOME RAIN NEAR EUREKA.

DRY AND MORE MILD.

WE GOT SOME SNOW SHOWERS IN YOUR HIGHER ELEVATIONS.

AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY INTO THE MOUNTAINS IN THE 50s.

TEMPLE JUST BELOW 70.

PLENTY OF SUNSHINE.

IT IS A BIT CHILLY THOUGH AS YOU HEAD INLAND ESPECIALLY IN THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

THE TEMPERATURE IN THE DOWNTREND IS EVEN HEADING TO THE MIDWEEK.

INLAND A SMALL BUMP FROM SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY AND THEN YOU ARE IN THE DOWNTREND AGAIN WITH SHOWERS FOR TUESDAY.

A MOUNTAIN SMALL BUMP IN TEMPERATURES AND THEN THEY ARE IN THE DOWNTREND AS YOU HEAD INTO THE MIDWEEK AND DESERT.

THEY BOUNCE RIGHT BACK.

77 AGAIN AS YOU HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND.

>> THE SEASONS SPIRIT OF GIVING HAS EXTRA MEANING TO SOME SAN DIEGO ENDS THEY SAY ONE OF THE REGIONS TOY DRIVES IS LEADING PEOPLE WRITE TO THEIR DOORSTEPS.

>> JUST THE SEASON FOR FAMILY, FOOD AND GIFTS.

BUT NOT ALL ARE ABLE TO AFFORD THE HOLIDAYS.

LaMARR KENNEDY JUNIOR DECIDED SOMETHING NEEDED TO HAPPEN.

>> WE GOT TOGETHER AND WE DECIDED TO DO A TOY DRIVE THIS YEAR FOR CHRISTMAS FOR LESS FORTUNATE KIDS.

>> THEY DUG INTO THEIR OWN POCKETS TO BUY A WIDE RANGE OF GIFTS AND THEN THEY PUT THEM INTO SOME CUSTOMIZED BAGS FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES AND DELIVER THEM RIGHT TO PEOPLE'S HOMES.

>> SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T HAVE RIDES, SOMETIMES PEOPLE WAIT IN LINE FOR A LONG TIME JUST TO GET ONE TOY OR SOMETIMES PEOPLE RUN OUT OF TOYS AND PEOPLE BE WAITING OUT THERE ALL DAY.

THIS YEAR WE JUST WANTED TO MAKE IT SPECIAL.

>> THEY WERE SOME OF THE DOZENS THAT GOT THE SPECIALIZED GIFT BAG.

SHE SAYS THE GENEROSITY IS ESPECIALLY MEANINGFUL THIS YEAR DUE TO RISING INFLATION AND A TRAGEDY IN THEIR FAMILY.

>> THIS YEAR ESPECIALLY BECAUSE MY KIDS LOST THEIR FOGGER BACK IN AUGUST.

HE WAS MURDERED.

THIS IS DEFINITELY A BLESSING FOR THEM.

IT WILL PUT A SMILE ON THEIR FACE FOR SURE.

>> HE WAS ENTREPRENEUR AND MURDERED IN HIS BUSINESS.

THEY ALWAYS TELL US TO BE AMBITIOUS AND GET IN A POSITION TO WHERE YOU ARE BLESSED AND YOU CAN GIVE BACK.

JUST TAKEN A NEGATIVE AND TURNING IT INTO A POSITIVE THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE.

THEY WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE TOYBOX FOR ROUGHLY 80 KIDS THROUGHOUT SAN DIEGO COUNTY.

BASIN ACTUALLY PLAN ON DOING AN EVEN BIGGER EVENT WITH THE HELP OF OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

>> TRACKING SANTA ON CHRISTMAS EVE IS A TRADITION FOR FAMILIES AROUND THE WORLD AND A SAN DIEGO COMPANY MAKES SURE EVERY KID CAN SEE OR HEAR EXACTLY WHERE SANTA'S SLAY IS.

INTERPRETERS UNLIMITED TRANSLATES THE SANTA TRACKING WEBSITE INTO SEVEN DIFFERENT LANGUAGE IS.

VOLUNTEER LEVEL TROLL CALL CENTERS GIVE UPDATES IN SPANISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, ITALIAN, PORTUGUESE, JAPANESE AND CHINESE.

>> SOMEONE IS ABLE TO WAKE UP WITH A BRIGHTER SMILE AND BE A LITTLE BIT HAPPIER KNOWING THEY KNEW WHERE SANTA WAS DELIVERING THEIR GIFTS.

THAT IS A NEAT FEELING.

>> LAST YEAR THEY ANSWERED AROUND 1000 CALLS IN NON- ENGLISH LANGUAGES.

>>> MARVELS SPIDERMAN TURNS 60 THIS YEAR.

WE GO INSIDE AND EXHIBIT CELEBRATING THE LEGACY.

THE EXHIBIT IS OPEN TO THE END OF THE YEAR.

>> SPIDERMAN TURNS 60 THIS YEAR BUT THE ICONIC SUPERHERO WILL FOREVER BE ENGRAVED IN OUR POP CULTURE AS A TEENAGER.

THERE IS NO REWARD FOR BEING SPIDERMAN AND YET HE CONTINUES TO DO IT.

I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE EMPHASIZE AND RESPOND TO THAT.

THERE IS SOMETHING REALLY INNATELY AMAZING ABOUT SPIDERMAN.

>> EVEN GO BEYOND AMAZING WITH A NEW EXHIBITION CELEBRATING THE POPULAR WEB SLINGER.

THE EXHIBIT WAS CO-CURATED BY BEN SAUNDERS AND PATRICK REED.

>> WE HAVE 60 YEARS WORTH OF POP CULTURAL MATERIAL TO DRAW UPON, CROSS PRETTY MUCH EVERY AVAILABLE MEDIA PLATFORM.

>> WE ARE VERY CONSCIOUS OF THE MUSEUMS THAT TELL STORIES.

IT IS BASED AROUND HISTORICAL ARTIFACTS, ORIGINAL COMIC BOOK ART, FILM, PROPS, BUT THEN WE ALSO USE ALL SORTS OF MODERN TECHNIQUES, LIGHTING, PROJECTIONS, HIGH-DEFINITION, DIGITAL CAMPUS IS TO TELL THE STORY IN A MORE KINETIC WAY.

>> SOMETIMES TELLING THAT STORY INVOLVES PEELING BACK THE CURTAIN TO LOOK AT THE CREATIVE PROCESS USED TO CREATE THE COMIC BOOKS.

I ALWAYS WANTED TO STOP AND SPEND MORE TIME.

>> VISITORS MAY ALSO BE DRAWN TO THE PHOTO OP OFFERED BY LIFE- SIZE STATUES.

THIS IS A 1-1 REAL.

THIS IS EXACTLY HOW BIG HE WOULD BE.

ANYBODY COULD BE UNDER THAT MASK.

IT COULD BE ANYONE OF US REGARDLESS OF COLOR, CREED, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, ANYTHING.

>> IT IS SOMETHING THAT IS BUILT INTO THE MODEL UNIVERSE SINCE THE 1960S.

IN PARTICULAR AGAINST RACISM AND THAT WAS AN ABSOLUTELY SINCERELY HELD BELIEF WHICH HE WANTED TO INJECT TO THE MATERIAL FROM AT LEAST THE MID- 60s ONWARD.
