THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU FOR JOINING US, SAN DIEGO COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE PUSHING BACK AGAINST NEW FEDERAL CHILDHOOD VACCINE GUIDELINES.

KPBS HEALTH REPORTER HEIDI DiMARCO SAYS THEY ARE URGING PARENTS TO INSTEAD FOLLOW GUIDANCE FROM THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS.

THIS WEEK, THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION REDUCED THE NUMBER OF VACCINES ROUTINELY RECOMMENDED FOR ALL CHILDREN.

THE CHANGES WERE MADE WITHOUT THE USUAL INPUT FROM PEDIATRIC AND VACCINE ADVISORY GROUPS.

>> WE WISH THEY HADN'T DONE THAT, WE WISH THEY'D PRESENTED THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS, AND ONE OF OUR REGULAR MEETINGS, AND WE WOULD'VE HAD A CHANCE TO DISCUSS IT.

>> Reporter: HE SAYS THE SCIENCE BEHIND CHILDHOOD VACCINES HASN'T CHANGED.

THAT INCLUDES SIX VACCINES THE CDC IS NO LONGER RECOMMENDING.

>> WE BELIEVE THAT THE VACCINES FOR RSV, HEPATITIS A AND B, FLU, AND MENINGOCOCCAL US SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE GIVEN.

>> Reporter: SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH OFFICIALS WILL FOLLOW THE PREVIOUS VACCINE SCHEDULE.

IT IS RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS, THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH, AND THE WEST COAST HEALTH ALLIANCE.

BRADLEY SAYS THE CDCS AND PUTS MORE PRESSURE ON PARENTS.

>> PARENTS DON'T KNOW ALL THE QUESTIONS TO ASK.

THEY'RE PARENTS.

THAT'S THEIR JOB.

THEY'RE NOT MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS WHO SPEND THEIR LIVES REVIEWING VACCINE DATA AND COMING UP WITH RECOMMENDATIONS.

>> Reporter: THE MEASLES VACCINE IS STILL RECOMMENDED, BUT CASES HAVE SEARCH THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF LOWER VACCINATION RATES.

BRADLEY SAYS HE'S ALREADY SEEN THE CONSEQUENCES.

>> I STARTED MY CAREER BEFORE THE MEASLES VACCINES WERE AROUND.

AND I HADN'T SEEN A CASE OF MEASLES FOR DECADES UNTIL JUST RECENTLY, IN AN YOUNG IMMUNIZED KID, AND, IT BROUGHT BACK TO ME JUST HOW HORRIBLE MEASLES IS.

>> Reporter: COUNTY OFFICIALS SAY CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENT VACCINES ARE COVERED BY INSURANCE.

THEY ARE ALSO AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COUNTY CLINICS FOR FAMILIES WITHOUT COVERAGE.

>>> A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUITS PENDING FROM GENDER IDENTITY POLICIES IN ESCONDIDO MIDDLE SCHOOL COULD BE HEADING TO THE U.S.

SUPREME COURT.

TWO ESCONDIDO UNION SCHOOL DISTRICT TEACHERS SUED THE STATE IN 2023 OVER A LAW THAT SAYS SCHOOL EMPLOYEES CANNOT DISCLOSE A STUDENT'S GENDER IDENTITY WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT.

THE TEACHERS ARGUE IT VIOLATES THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL FREE SPEECH, AND RELIGIOUS RIGHTS.

A SAN DIEGO FEDERAL JUDGE RULED IN THEIR FAVOR IN LATE DECEMBER.

KPBS REPORTER ANDREW DYER SAID THAT INCLUDES ABOUT $5 BILLION FOR CALIFORNIA.

>> Reporter: CALIFORNIA JOINS NEW YORK, COLORADO, MINNESOTA IN THE LAWSUIT.

CALIFORNIA ATTORNEY GENERAL SAID THE PRESIDENT DOESN'T HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO WITHHOLD FUNDS APPROPRIATED BY CONGRESS.

>> THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DOES NOT HAVE THIS AUTHORITY TO OVERRIDE ESTABLISHED, LAWFUL PROCESSES THAT STATES ALREADY HAVE, GONE THROUGH TO SUBMIT PLANS AND RECEIVE APPROVAL FOR THESE FUNDS.

>> Reporter: 10 BILLION AND FROZEN FEDERAL DOLLARS TO FUND CHILDCARE AND FAMILY ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS ACROSS FIVE STATES.

>> IT'S UNCONSCIONABLE, UNDEMOCRATIC, AND UNLAWFUL, WHICH IS WHY WE'VE TAKEN TROMBETTA'S ADMINISTRATION TO COURT.

>> Reporter: IN LETTERS SENT TO THE FIVE STATES THIS MONTH THE ADMINISTRATION SAID IT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR BROAD ACROSS THE PROGRAMS.

IT'S DEMANDING THE STATE'S TURNOVER THE ABOUT BENEFICIARIES.

THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF SYSTEMIC FRAUD.

>> THIS IS ABOUT NOTHING MORE THAN A PRESIDENT SEEKING TO PUNISH DEMOCRATIC-LED STATES THAT HAVE TAKEN A STAND AGAINST HIS BLUSTER, HIS BULLYING, AND HIS BLATANT AND BRAZEN LAWLESSNESS.

>> Reporter: A VIRAL VIDEO POSTED BY A RIGHT-WING INFLUENCER LAST MONTH ALLEGED SOMALI AMERICAN RUN DAY CARE CENTERS IN MINNEAPOLIS WERE ENGAGED IN WIDESPREAD FRAUD.

THE VIDEO PRESENTS NO EVIDENCE OF THAT FRAUD.

MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON SAYS TRUMP IS AT MAKING DECISIONS BASED ON ANY LEGITIMATE INVESTIGATIONS.

>> HE'S DOING THIS BECAUSE A YOUTUBER, A YOUTUBE INFLUENCER, TOLD HIM TO.

>> Reporter: THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES ENSURES THE GRANT PROGRAMS.

IT DID NOT RESPOND TO A REQUEST FOR COMMENT.

WE'RE GOING TO GET DOWN TO 42 IN SAN DIEGO, PRETTY CHILLY OUT THERE, CALLED IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS, WHEN ADVISORIES CONTINUE UNTIL 1:00 P.M.

SUNDAY, WE'LL TAKE A LOOK INTO NEXT WEEK, COMING UP.

>>> PROTESTS FORCED PLANT IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY AND ACROSS THE WEEKEND AFTER AN I.C.E.

AGENT SHOT AND KILLED A WOMAN IN MINNEAPOLIS.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE CITY ARE CLOSED AND NOW THE MAYOR IS RENEWING HIS CALL FOR LOCAL INVOLVEMENT IN THE SHOOTING INVESTIGATION.

LEE WALDMAN HAS THE LATEST, AND WE DO NEED TO WARN THAT THERE IS GRAPHIC VIDEO IN THIS REPORT.

>> Reporter: TODAY, NEW VIDEO HAS BEEN RELEASED FROM THE I.C.E.

AGENT WHO SHOT AND KILLED RENE GOOD'S PERSPECTIVE HAS COME DOWN, SHOWING THAT HE WAS LOOKING AT THE MOMENTS BEFORE HE OPENED FIRE ON HER VEHICLE, BEFORE SHE CRASHED, HERE, WHERE THERE IS STILL A GROWING MEMORIAL.

WHILE PROTESTERS IN MINNEAPOLIS CONTINUE TO FACE OFF WITH FEDERAL AGENTS, >> I WILL NOW INVITE US TO TAKE A MINUTE OF SILENCE TO HONOR THE LIFE OF RENE GOOD.

>> Reporter: THE MINNEAPOLIS MAYOR CONTINUING TO URGE I.C.E.

TO GET OUT OF HIS CITY, AND THE STATE.

AND RENEWING HIS CALL FOR LOCAL INVOLVEMENT IN A DEADLY SHOOTING INVESTIGATION.

>> INCLUDE LOCAL EXPERTS IN THE PROCESS.

WE GOT NOTHING TO HIDE FROM HERE, ALL WE WANT IN MINNEAPOLIS IS JUSTICE, AND THE TRUTH.

>> THE PRESIDENT IS SIMPLE, YOU HAVE A FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL ENGAGING IN LAW- ENFORCEMENT ACTION, THAT'S A FEDERAL ISSUE, THAT GUY IS PROTECTED BY ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY.

>> Reporter: RENEE GOODE'S WIFE, BETH, HAS RELEASED A STATEMENT NOW, SAYING THAT HER WIFE SPARKLED, AND THEY'RE STRIVING TO RAISE THEIR SON IN HER BELIEFS, THAT THEY LOVE PEOPLE WHO DON'T LOOK LIKE THEM, NO MATTER WHERE THEY COME FROM.

>>> THE SAN DIEGO CITY COUNCIL RETURNS FOR ITS FIRST SESSION OF THE NEW YEAR ON MONDAY.

KPBS METRO REPORTER ANDREW BOWEN SAYS WATER, PARKING, AND A BUDGET DEFICIT ARE LOOMING LARGE.

>> Reporter: THE COUNCIL WILL HEAR A REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK OF THE CITY'S WATER AND SEWER UTILITY FUNDS.

THE COUNCIL APPROVED TWO YEARS OF WATER RATE INCREASES LAST OCTOBER.

THEY'RE NECESSARY TO FUND FEDERALLY MANDATED WATER INFRASTRUCTURE, AND TO KEEP UP WITH THE RISING COST OF WATER, WHICH IS LINKED IN PART TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND DROUGHT.

THE REPORT MAKES CLEAR TWO YEARS OF RATE HIKES WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO FUND THE CITY'S WATER NEEDS.

BARRING A MAJOR CHANGE IN COSTS OR REVENUES, THE CITY WILL NEED TO RAISE WATER AND SEWER RATES EACH YEAR THROUGH AT LEAST 2031.

EIGHT PARKING IN BALBOA PARK IS NOT ON THE COUNCIL'S AGENDA NEXT WEEK, BUT THERE'S BEEN PLENTY OF HANDWRINGING ABOUT ITS ROCKY ROLLOUT.

THE PARKING FEES STARTED MONDAY, THREE MONTHS LATER THAN THE CITY INITIALLY PLANNED.

THAT DELAY HAS CREATED A WHOLE IN THE CITY'S BUDGET.

IN THE COMING MONTHS THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL WILL DECIDE HOW THEY'LL BALANCE THAT DEFICIT, EITHER BY CUTTING SERVICES OR RAISING NEW REVENUES WITH HIGHER TAXES OR FEES.

>>> THERE'S A NEW PERMANENT PLACE FOR SAN DIEGANS TO FIND THE RESOURCES THEY NEED IN NORTH COUNTY.

THE SAN DIEGO FOOD BANK HELD A RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY FOR ITS NEW WAREHOUSE IN VISTA.

IT REPLACES A SITE WHICH WILL REDIRECT AROUND $400,000 PER YEAR FROM RENT TO HUNGER RELEASE PROGRAMS.

THE WAREHOUSE FEATURES COLD STORAGE AND THE CLIENT CHOICE PANTRY WHICH IS DESIGNED LIKE A NEIGHBORHOOD GROCERY STORE.

>> WHICH WILL ALLOW US TO DISTRIBUTE MORE FRESH PRODUCE, AND MORE PROTEINS, LIKE MEAT PRODUCT THAT CAN BE FROZEN.

SO AFTER THIS PAST YEAR WHERE WE DISTRIBUTED ALMOST 10 MILLION POUNDS JUST OUT OF THIS LOCATION IN NORTH COUNTY, WITH A BIGGER AND MORE OPTIMIZED WAREHOUSE, WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO MORE THAN THAT.

>> Reporter: ONE IN FOUR SAN DIEGANS EXPERIENCE FOOD INSECURITY ACCORDING TO THE FOOD BANK, THEY SAY THE NEW FACILITY WILL HELP ADDRESS THE RISING DEMAND IN THE NORTH COUNTY.

>> TONIGHT, ON THE NEWS HOUR, WHO'S STRUGGLING THE MOST IN THE NATION'S UNCERTAIN JOB MARKET?

THAT'S COMING UP AT 7:00 AFTER EVENING EDITION ON KPBS.

>>> TRYING TO QUIT A BAD HABIT THIS NEW YEAR?

EXPERTS SAY WILLPOWER ISN'T THE ISSUE, KPBS WEB PRODUCER RILEY ARTHUR EXPLORES THE SCIENCE BEHIND ADDICTIONS AND STRATEGIES TO BREAK THEM.

>> Reporter: TRYING TO QUIT A BAD HABIT THIS YEAR?

EXPERTS SAY WILLPOWER ISN'T THE ISSUE, WHETHER IT'S SMOKING, DRINKING, OR DOOM SCROLLING, HABITS ARE DEEPLY WIRED IN THE BRAIN.

BREAKING THEM CAN TAKE MORE THAN GOOD INTENTIONS.

ACCORDING TO THE UNITED NATIONS OFFICE OF DRUGS AND CRIME, 2040 POINT, MORE THAN THREE AND 16 MILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE USE DRUGS.

SHOWING JUST HOW COMPLEX AND COMMON HABITS AND ADDICTION BEHAVIOR CAN BE.

HITTING STARTED CAN BE DAUNTING DUE TO GOOD DOPAMINE AND THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL RELIANCE ON THE HABIT OR SUBSTANCE.

EXPERTS SAY HABITS TEND TO FOLLOW A PARTICULAR PATTERN.

RESEARCHERS OFTEN CALL THE HABIT LOOP.

A ROUTINE AND REWARD.

ONCE THE LOOP IS ESTABLISHED IT CAN FEEL ALMOST AUTOMATIC.

>> HABITS ARE INGRAINED IN THE BRAIN IN THIS CYCLE WHICH MOST REFERRED TO AS THE HABIT LOOP.

THE IDEA IS THAT HABITS START WITH SOME Q WHICH IS A TRIGGER THAT THEN LEADS TO SOME KIND OF BEHAVIOR, GOOD OR BAD.

>> Reporter: THAT PATTERN IS INCREASINGLY RELEVANT AS MANY PEOPLE STRUGGLE WITH ADDICTIONS LIKE EXCESSIVE SCREEN TIME, AND DOOM SCROLLING.

BEHAVIORS THAT DON'T ALWAYS LOOK HARMFUL AT FIRST BUT CAN QUIETLY ADD UP.

>> I'M SEEING AN INCREASE IN DOOM SCROLLING, GETTING SUCKED INTO VIDEOS ON THE PHONE, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE USING IT AS A WAY TO DISTRACT FROM DIFFICULT EMOTIONS, CRAVINGS.

>> Reporter: OFTEN PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE HOW MUCH TIME THEY SPEND UNTIL IT'S GONE.

>> THEY START ON A PARTICULAR APP AND THEN TWO HOURS LATER THEY LOOK UP AND WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE.

>> Reporter: TO DETERMINE WHEN HABIT BECOMES A PROBLEM, LOOK AT WHETHER IT'S INTERFERING WITH DAILY ACTIVITIES OR CREATING CONFLICT IN OTHER AREAS OF YOUR LIFE.

WHEN IT COMES TIME TO CHANGE, EXPERTS RECOMMEND STARTING SMALL, RATHER THAN TRYING TO OVERHAUL EVERYTHING AT ONCE.

>> INSTEAD OF TRYING TO GO TALK COLD TURKEY IF YOU WANT TO QUIT SMOKING, YOU MONITOR AND TRACK, HOW MUCH OF MY SMOKING?

SPEND A WEEK OR TWO COUNTING THE NUMBER OF CIGARETTES OR THE NUMBER OF PUFFS, AND IT CAN BE A LOT TO PEOPLE WHO ARE YOUNG ADULTS THESE DAYS, A LOT OF THEM MIGHT VAPE 200 IN A DAY.

YOU GOT TO COUNT THOSE.

AND THEN THE PACE THAT YOU WANT TO GO FOR SUSTAINABLE CHANGE, IS JUST REDUCING BY ABOUT 10% PER WEEK.

SHAVE OFF 20 PER DAY, THAT'S STILL 180 A DAY, RIGHT?

SO, THAT MAY NOT FEEL LIKE A LOT OF CHANGE, BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOUR BODY CAN SUSTAIN WITHOUT REBELLING AGAINST IT, OR WITHOUT EXPERIENCING TOO MUCH STRESS.

>> I DO TEND TO LEAN ON THE WISDOM OF DOING THINGS ONE DAY AT A TIME.

IF THAT'S TOO LONG, ONE HOUR AT A TIME, ONE MINUTE AT A TIME.

AS CONSISTENT AS YOU CAN BE WITH DOING A NEW BEHAVIOR OR NOT DOING AN OLD BEHAVIOR.

THAT STARTS TO ADD UP.

>> Reporter: EXPERTS EMPHASIZE THAT SETBACKS AND RELAPSES ARE NOT ONLY COMMON, THEY'RE EXPECTED.

FOR EXAMPLE, LESS THAN ONE IN 10 SUCCEED IN QUITTING EACH YEAR, ACCORDING TO THE CDC.

SELF COMPASSION DURING SLIPUPS CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GIVING UP AND GETTING BACK ON TRACK.

WHEN A HABIT BEGINS TO INTERFERE WITH HEALTH, RELATIONSHIPS, OR DAILY LIFE, EXPERTS SAY IT MAY BE TIME TO ASK FOR HELP.

>> PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO REACH OUT, WE DO WANT TO HELP YOU.

>> Reporter: BREAKING A BAD HABIT DOESN'T HAPPEN OVERNIGHT, BUT SMALL CONSISTENT CHANGES COMBINED WITH THE RIGHT SUPPORT CAN ADD UP OVER TIME.

KPBS NEWS.

>>> EXERCISING MORE IS THE MOST COMMON NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION THIS YEAR ACCORDING TO A RECENT SURVEY, BUT EXPERTS URGE YOU TO BE CAREFUL.

MANDY GAITHER EXPLAINS WHY EXERCISE INJURIES TEND TO SPIKE IN JANUARY.

>> YOU VOWED TO EXERCISE MORE IN 2026.

THAT'S A GREAT GOAL TO GET HEALTHY.

BUT EXPERTS HAVE A WORKOUT WARNING THEY HOPE YOU HEAT.

>> WE SEE A VERY PREDICABLE SPIKE OF VERY PREVENTABLE INJURIES IN JANUARY.

>> Reporter: DR.

ANDREW WITH THE ORLANDO HEALTH SAYS AFTER THE HOLIDAYS, MOTIVATION TENDS TO SPIKE WHILE CONDITIONING IS AT AN ALL-TIME LOW, AND HE SAYS SOCIAL MEDIA OFTEN DRIVES THE RISING INJURIES.

>> IS ONE SOCIAL MEDIA TREND NOW WITH THE KETTLE BELL SCREWING, 30 DAY, 100 KETTLE BELL SWINGS A DAY FOR 30 DAYS.

THAT WILL CAUSE OVERUSE INJURIES.

>> Reporter: THAT CAN INCLUDE TENDINITIS IN THE BICEPS AND ROTATOR CUFF IN THE SHOULDER.

HE ALSO SEES KNEE INJURIES THIS TIME OF YEAR, ESPECIALLY IF A PERSON SUDDENLY TAKES OFF RUNNING.

>> YOU GO FROM ZERO TO RUNNING THREE, FOUR, FIVE MILES, YOU'RE GOING TO GET A LOT OF TENDINITIS, RUNNERS KNEE.

>> Reporter: TO HELP AVOID INJURIES, START SLOW, NO MORE THAN THREE DAYS A WEEK, AND INCORPORATE REST INTO YOUR REGIMEN.

THAT'S WHEN YOUR BODY STARTS TO BUILD MUSCLE.

DON'T FOLLOW SOCIAL MEDIA TRENDS.

INSTEAD, START WITH THE BASICS LIKE BODYWEIGHT EXERCISES AND CORE WORK.

CONSIDER GETTING A TRAINER TO HELP KEEP YOUR TECHNIQUE ON TRACK, AND REMEMBER, START WITH HIGHER REPS AND LOWER WEIGHT.

>> ONCE YOU HAVE THE FUNDAMENTALS, YOUR CORE IS STRONG, LOWER BACK IS STRONG, SHOULDERS ARE GOOD, THEN YOU CAN START TO PLAY WITH INCREASING WEIGHT.

>> DR.

SAYS YOU CAN EXPECT TO BE SORE AFTER STARTING A NEW WORKOUT ROUTINE BUT IF YOU'RE UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE EXERCISE PLAN BECAUSE OF PAIN, AND HOW IT'S AFFECTING YOU, YOU CAN MOVE OR IF THERE IS SWELLING THAT ACCOMPANIES THAT PAIN, HE SAYS IT'S TIME TO SEE A DOCTOR.

>>> THE 90-YEAR-OLD HISTORIC SUNSHINE BROOKS THEATER IN OCEANSIDE IS UNDERGOING A MAJOR RENOVATION.

KPBS NORTH COUNTY REPORTER GOT A LOOK INSIDE TO SHOW WHAT'S BEING DONE.

>> Reporter: THIS IS WHAT THE LOBBY AND THE STUDIO AT THE BROOKS THEATER LOOK LIKE NOW.

CARPET PULLED UP, WALLS TORN OFF.

WIRES AND DUST EVERYWHERE.

BUT, SOON IT WILL LOOK LIKE THIS.

THE HISTORIC THEATER IS UNDERGOING A MUCH-NEEDED RENOVATION.

>> IS GOING TO TAKE ABOUT 12 WEEKS.

>> Reporter: THE THEATER IS CITY-OWNED, THE OCEANSIDE THEATER COMPANY HAS BEEN LEASING IT FROM THE CITY SINCE 2011.

>> IT'S ABOUT 2.2 MILLION.

>> Reporter: ABOUT $885,000 AND WILL CONNECT THE STUDIO IN THE THEATER'S LOBBY.

TO ADD NEW CONCESSION STANDS AND SIX NEW BATHROOMS.

>> AND THOSE INTERMISSIONS, THOSE ARE VERY LONG.

BUT NOW WE HAVE THE COMFORT FOR OUR PATRONS TO HAVE SIX BATHROOMS, TWO A.D.A.

BATHROOMS AS WELL, I THINK IT'S REALLY GOOD.

>> Reporter: KEVIN BOXBOROUGH SAYS THE PROJECT WAS 10 YEARS IN THE MAKING.

>> IT'S BEEN A LONG PHASE, A LONG PROCESS, BUT IT'S TIME THAT THE COMMUNITY THAT IS GROWING GETS A SPACE THAT IS TRULY THEIRS, THAT GROWS WITH THEM.

>> Reporter: PHASE ONE IS EXPECTED TO BE CONCLUDED BY THE END OF MARCH, PHASE TWO WILL START AT A LATER DATE ONCE FUNDING IS SECURED.

IT WILL INCLUDE UPDATING THE THEATER ITSELF AS WELL AS THE LIGHTS, SOUNDS, AND HVAC SYSTEMS.

FOR NOW THE COMPANY IS IN THE MIDST OF REHEARSAL FOR ITS WORLD PREMIERE MUSICAL.

>> EVEN WITH THE CONSTRUCTION THE SHOW MUST GO ON, OPENING NIGHT FOR DEAD MOOSE IS JANUARY 24th, IN OCEANSIDE, ALEXANDER, KPBS NEWS.

THE PEAK OF THIS OFFSHORE WIND EVENT, WINDSOR INCREASING TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY, SOME AREAS MacY GUSTS UP TO NEAR 60 MILES PER HOUR, IN SOME OF THOSE INLAND CANYONS AND PASSES.

BUT, IT WILL BE A COLD NIGHT AS WELL IN THE INLAND AREAS, EARLY SATURDAY MORNING.

PRETTY COLD OUT THERE, EVEN SOME FREEZE WARNINGS IN EFFECT IN SOME PARTS OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, INLAND AREAS INTO SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY.

AS WE LOOK AT THE OVERNIGHT FORECAST, CHILI IN THE CITY, 42, FOR YOUR OVERNIGHT LOW, AND THE WIND ADVISORIES ARE STILL WITH US.

A PEEK AT THIS WIND EVENT MAY OCCUR IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS, THE CANYONS AND PASSES ARE GOING TO FACE THE STRONGEST OF THE WINS, AND MOST INLAND AREAS ARE UNDER WIND ADVISORIES, CONTINUING UNTIL 1:00 P.M.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

HERE, THE MAP INDICATES HOW WE'RE DEALING WITH THE STRONGEST GUSTS OF 40 TO 60 MILES PER HOUR IN THOSE INLAND AREAS.

DOWNSLOPING, OFFSHORE WIND EVENT, AND OVERALL, THE FIRE RISK IS LOWER THIS TIME COMPARED TO A YEAR AGO WHEN WE HAD THE ONGOING WILDFIRES RAGING OFF TO OUR NORTH INTO PARTS OF LOS ANGELES.

THE RECENT WEATHER HAS SATURATED THE GROUND AND INTRODUCED MORE MOISTURE INTO THE VEGETATION.

MITIGATING SOME OF THE FIRE THREAT HERE DESPITE THE OFFSHORE WINDS.

DRY WEATHER WINS OUT, STILL BREEZY SATURDAY, UP AROUND 74 HIGHS IN ESCONDIDO, OCEANSIDE INTO SAN DIEGO, CHULA VISTA 69.

I'M METEOROLOGIST GEOFF CORNISH FOR KPBS NEWS.

>>> THE GOLDEN GLOBES START THIS SUNDAY, SO KPBS CINEMA JUNKIE IS GIVING OUT YOUR OWN AWARDS FOR THE BEST FILMS OF 2025.

>> SO, JUST GIVE SINNERS ALL THE AWARDS, BECAUSE NOTHING IN 2025 CAME CLOSE TO BEATING IT AS THE BEST, BUT THERE WERE A LOT OF FILMS THAT GAVE ME JOY.

FROM THE HONORABLE MENTIONS LIST, SUPERMAN GAVE ME CRYPTO, ROAD TO REVENGE GAVE ME A SENIOR CITIZEN ACTION HERO, GAVE ME MY FAVORITE FEMALE PERFORMANCE IN LIZ LARSON, AND TWIN LES HAD THE YEARS SMARTEST, FUNNIEST SCRIPT.

>> WHOEVER INVENTED SHOULD BE FLAGELLATED.

>> SENTIMENTAL VALUE PROVIDED THE BEST BEHIND-THE-SCENES LOOK AT THE CREATIVE PROCESS, WHILE ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER DELIVERED THE MOST CLEVERLY EXECUTED CAR CHASE OF THE YEAR.

NOW FOR THE TOP 10, STARTING WITH A TIE AT THE NUMBER 10 SPOT BETWEEN TWO FILMS THAT DEALT WITH TRAUMA AND OPPRESSIVE REGIMES.

IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT FOCUSES ON MORAL QUESTIONS, WHILE THE SECRET AGENT, SET IN 1970S BRAZIL, DEPICTS AN OPPRESSIVE REGIME THAT FEELS MORE AND MORE LIKE TODAY'S UNITED STATES THAN I WANT TO ADMIT.

NEXT IS THE SPANISH FRENCH COPRODUCTION WHICH BEGINS AT A CRAZY DANCE RAVE AS A FATHER SEARCHES FOR HIS MISSING DAUGHTER.

THEN TAKES SHOCKING TERMS THAT LEAVE YOU DEVASTATED.

AS SOMEONE WHO CARES LITTLE FOR TIMOTHY SHALL AMAZE WISPY APPEAL, I WAS DELIGHTED TO DISCOVER HE'S PERFECT AS A SMUG NARCISSISTIC IN MARTY SUPREME.

KUDOS TO FILMMAKER FOR MAKING AN ABSOLUTELY RIVETING FILM ABOUT PING-PONG IN THE 1950s.

AND MAKING IT THE NASTIEST FILM OF THE YEAR.

AT SEVEN, FOR CONTRAST IS THE SLOW, COGNITIVE STYLE OF MAGELLAN.

IT'S A PORTRAIT OF THE HISTORICAL FIGURE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THOSE HE COLONIZED.

THE FILMMAKING IS ALL ABOUT RESTRAINT AND GIVING THE AUDIENCE TIME TO LET THE THEMES SINK IN.

NEXT UP ARE A PAIR OF DOCUMENTARIES ABOUT CINEMATIC ICONS.

MY MOM JANE, AND BOTH PLAY OUT LIKE TENSE THRILLERS REVEALING HIDDEN STORIES BEHIND ACTRESSES JAYNE MANSFIELD.

IT REALLY KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK, SHOWING WHAT SHE WAS ON AND OFF CAMERA.

YOUR JAW WILL DROP AT HER FULL STORY.

>> LET'S HAVE IT.

>> COUNTING DOWN AT FOUR AND THREE ARE FILMS THAT CELEBRATES THEM IN RADICALLY DIFFERENT WAYS, REFLECTION IN A DEAD DIAMOND IS A GLORIOUS AND AUDACIOUS THOMAS TO 70s ITALIAN AND EURO SPY FILMS.

EVERY FRAME DRIPS WITH STYLE.

IT'S DIZZYING AND DELICIOUS.

RESURRECTION FROM CHINA IS EQUALLY INTOXICATING, BUT DELIVERS A FAR RICHER EMOTIONAL EXPERIENCE, GOING BEYOND JUST A LOVE OF CINEMA TO EXPLORE WHAT MAKES US HUMAN.

AT NUMBER TWO, A TINY INDIE FILM WHOSE VERY SLIGHT THIS IS PART OF ITS CHARM AND RADICAL REBELLION.

JULIAN DEBUT OBJECTS IN THE FIELD OF DEBRIS AS CURDLING -- DEFIES CATEGORIZATION.

BUT DISPLAYS AND NEED TO IMPOSE ORDER ON CHAOS AND DIALS US WITH A QUIRKY NEO-NOIR MYSTERY.

>> AND THUS THE MYSTERY UNFOLDS.

>> BACK TO NUMBER ONE, SINNERS.

IT'S A VAMPIRE HORROR FILM, A STORY ABOUT RACE, A CELEBRATION OF BLACK CULTURE, AND A DEFIANT CHALLENGE TO HOLLYWOOD, SHOWING THAT A BLACK FILMMAKER CAN NEGOTIATE CREATIVE CONTROL AND OWNERSHIP OF HIS FILM.

TO STUDIO EXECS, THAT'S WAY SCARIER THAN VAMPIRES.

SINNERS WORKS AS PURE ENTERTAINMENT, BUT ALSO RESONATES ON A DEEPER THEMATIC LEVEL.

I KNEW THIS WOULD BE THE BEST FILM OF 2025 AS SOON AS I LEFT THE THEATER.
