Friday marked three years since a farmworker opened fire at two farms in Half Moon Bay, killing seven people. Pedro Perez, a farmworker who was wounded but survived the shooting, said, through a translator, that he still grieves for his brother who was killed. “It’s a difficult day,” Perez said. “It’s been three years since my brother was here. But now, it’s three years without him. But thank God we as a community are going forward. We all feel a little better now.” The mass shooting also revealed troubling details about farmworker living conditions. At the request of the community, the city allows the nonprofit Latino group ALAS to coordinate the anniversary events. ALAS members said they will honor and remember the victims and their families but will also focus on how the shooting helped force changes. “Definitely changed the trajectory, right?” ALAS Program Director Sandra Sencion said. “Of things that were to come, of the families obviously that lost a loved one, as a community thinking about safety and what that looks like. Housing, in the housing aspect as well, to be able to offer housing for everybody, right? I think that was one of the biggest things that have come out.” San Mateo County Supervisor Ray Mueller agreed, pointing out how, in the wake of the shooting, a county task force inspected every farm in the county and made sure housing conditions improved. “While all that was going on we also realized that we needed to add housing, and so we went about building housing,” Mueller said. “We have projects that we’ve already completed where farmworkers can move into them. There’s still projects on the books that are still being moved forward.” But Mueller said they have also lost ground recently. “Having done all of this work now, we have a federal government that is scaring them into the shadows,” he said. Meanwhile, shooting suspect Chunli Zhao still awaits trial.

With a winter storm set to hit the New York City area — along with nearly half of the United States — over the weekend, we’re getting a clearer picture on the timing of when we could see snow start to fall, and how long it could last. Snow will move in near dawn on Sunday and will continue at full strength until the early evening, becoming heavy at times throughout the day. It will taper off to light scattered snow showers Sunday night and Monday morning before finally moving on by mid morning. Light sleet or freezing rain could mix with the snow east and south of NYC early Sunday evening, which would keep snow totals a little lower and create big problems on the roads. That sleet/freezing rain line could creep up to near the city as well, which would impact snow totals. See below for an hourly radar breakdown of what the storm will look like where you are: 7 a.m. Sunday 9 a.m. Sunday 11 a.m. Sunday 1 p.m. Sunday 3 p.m. Sunday 5 p.m. Sunday 7 p.m. Sunday 9 p.m. Sunday 11 p.m. Sunday 7 a.m. Monday 9 a.m. Monday

Professional climber Alex Honnald’s live-on-Netflix climb of Taipei 101, one of the world’s tallest skyscrapers, has been rescheduled due to weather, Netflix announced Friday night. The streaming service said on X the climb has been rescheduled from Friday night ET to 8 p.m. ET Saturday. “Safety remains our top priority, and we appreciate your understanding,” Netflix said. Taiwan public meteorologists have rain in the forecast for the next 24 hours. Climbing a 1,667-foot skyscraper without ropes or protective equipment would be daunting for most people, but not Honnold. In fact, he doesn’t even think it’ll be that much of a challenge. “I don’t think it’ll be that extreme,” Honnold said. “We’ll see. I think it’s the perfect sweet spot where it’s hard enough to be engaging for me and obviously an interesting climb.” Honnold, who is known for his legendary ropeless ascent up Yosemite National Park’s El Capitan, documented in “Free Solo,” has been looking to push himself — and the limits of climbing.

France’s Alain Robert did it in 2004 to celebrate the grand opening of the building, which at the time was the world’s tallest. It took Robert nearly four hours to finish. The “Skyscraper Live” broadcast will be on a 10-second delay.

The man who drove a U-Haul truck through a protest against the Iranian regime in Westwood may be facing a possible felony charge as the Los Angeles County district attorney took over the case, the district attorney’s office exclusively told NBC4 Investigates Friday. Calor Madaneschtalor was arrested and booked for reckless driving, a misdemeanor, earlier this month after his rental truck entered the protest area near the Federal Building in Westwood. But the district attorney’s office said it is now reviewing the case after the city attorney’s office decided to pass it. The case being transferred over to the district attorney’s office means there could be an upgrade to Madaneschtalor’s charge. The DA’s office typically prosecutes felony crimes whereas the city attorney’s office handles misdemeanor crimes and municipal code violations.  Westwood Jan 12 Man arrested after driving U-Haul truck through Westwood Iran demonstration Iran Jan 15 Man who drove U-Haul truck into anti-Iranian regime protest in Westwood speaks out Madaneschtalor told NBC Los Angeles that when he drove his truck into the crowd, his initial plan was to park his truck and get out of the car to join the protesters in solidarity with the people of Iran. “As I parked, the pro-Shah group attacked me,” Madaneschtalor said. “(They) violently started hitting me. Broken windows, shattered inside. Coming inside, punching me.” The large box truck, which Madaneschtalor was driving, had messages on the sides of its cargo area. And it continued down the street as demonstrators scrambled out of the way. Madaneschtalor, who insisted that he had a peaceful message on the truck, said he had to drive away to save his life. Some protesters had called for a terrorism charge against Madaneschtalor.
