​Ferrari​ Flies Into Bay + ​Boat Capsizes + FBI Warns Of Holiday Scams: NorCal In Brief

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA — As we head into the new week, we've rounded up the stories you may have missed Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday.

But before we jump into Northern California's top stories, residents should expect dry conditions and warmer than usual temperatures this week in the San Francisco Bay Area, according to the National Weather Service.

"Above normal temperatures and dry conditions persist through at least the first week of December," NWS San Francisco forecasters wrote Monday.

In other news, President Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, for tax and gun charges. The 54-year-old California resident pleaded guilty to the charges in September and was due to be sentenced in a downtown Los Angeles federal courtroom Dec. 16.

The driver of a Ferrari failed to negotiate a curve, became airborne and crashed into Richardson Bay, the California Highway Patrol said.

Eighteen people escaped apparent injury after the boat they were rowing overturned in south San Francisco Bay near Oyster Point, the U.S. Coast Guard said.

A 15-year-old was wounded in a shooting in Napa. The incident may be gang-related, authorities said.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation San Francisco said criminals are exploiting the holiday season to perpetrate scams against shoppers and donors, and people need to be vigilant. The scams involve online shopping, charity, cryptocurrency investment, gift cards and social media, according to the FBI.

Plus, home prices continued to cool in September in California and across the country, reflecting market headwinds, according to property data website CoreLogic.

The decline in seasonal home prices were driven by cooling California markets, the report found. Month-over-month home price declines were led by three markets in California: Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco, all of which recorded a 0.9% drop in September.
