heat affects people who are the most vulnerable in the south bay. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two. >> well, good morning to you. thank you for joining us. and welcome to mornings on two. i'm dave clark. >> good morning i'm pam cook. it's wednesday september fourth. it is hot. yes it's hot. i think it's going to continue. but let's check with steve paulson who has all the details. >> might get a little pullback at the coast. there's a there's some fog there. there's a lot more than yesterday. now again it probably won't last too long but we had none yesterday. there's a lot more today inland. not a problem. it's clear already 50s and 60s on the temps. but watch out, highway one. maybe over some of the bridges. that high is parked right over us today. although i think we ease up a teeny bit today. so your wild wednesday weather. lots of thick morning fog. so fog, then sun inland. it will be hot, but i think coast and bay kind of downshift a teeny bit here, so we'll go 70s, 80s, 90s to 100. all right.

here's sal. >> all right steve. good morning to you. we are off to a nice start here. when it comes to the commute, there's not a lot going on in the general bay area. triple a traffic camera showing us a very nice bay bridge. and hopefully it will be nice and quiet. here it is in front of the coliseum and interstate 880. looks good. and the south bay commute, for the most part is nice and quiet. so we're off to a nice start on a wednesday. it's 5:00. let's get right back to the headlines. >> okay. thank you sal. our time now, 5:00 new this morning. the city of san francisco now putting a stop to automated price setting for rents. city leaders say that has been scamming renters out of good prices for housing units. ktvu james torres is already in san francisco at city hall to tell us more about this. good morning james. >> dave, good morning to you. well, it's a new ordinance that passed unanimously by the city board of supervisors. they say landlords would use an ai powered software that would

input some information that normally wouldn't be available to the public, and then that would compute what the supervisors call an illegal price fixing rate, where renters would have to pay a lot more money than they should for some of these housing units. this new law now bans the use or sale of any of that type of software. city leaders say they are the first in the nation to do it. they accuse landlords who use this software of collusion, referencing lawsuits filed by the us department of justice and at least eight other state attorney generals. even vice president kamala harris mentioned the legality of this practice during the democratic national convention, san francisco leaders say they hope to be a trailblazer in ending the use of this software nationwide. >> we will become the first city in america to pass such a law. thank you colleagues. same house, same call. this ordinance is finally passed and will be an

example for cities all over this country. >> board of supervisors president aaron peskin authored the ordinance. his office says ever since they've talked about this. advocates from other cities and jurisdictions are now looking to san francisco for guidance, to try to write and pass a law of their own. that legislation will officially become law here in san francisco, 30 days after mayor london breed signs it. we're live this morning in san francisco. i'm james torres, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you james. today. sheriff's deputies in san francisco are expected to serve evictions to a group of people accused of squatting in some potrero hill apartment buildings, those being evicted say they've been paying rent. now, according to the chronicle, there have been more than 40 evictions served at the city owned buildings. however, many of the tenants say they were paying rent to a property manager that reportedly does not have permission to handle the rentals. now they are scrambling to find a new place to live.

>> well, turning now to the shooting of 49ers wide receiver ricky pearsall. the 17 year old accused of the shooting will be arraigned this afternoon at 130 at the juvenile justice center. prosecutors are charging him with several felonies, including attempted murder, assault with a semiautomatic firearm and attempted second degree robbery. the da's office will continue investigating, then will decide whether to ask a judge if the teenager should be tried as an adult. well, the 49ers, for the first time are talking publicly about the terrifying moments after that shooting and their earliest calls that i received were were extremely scary. >> hey, you know, we believe ricky's been shot in the chest and that outcome is not usually a good one. >> i just hugged him and, just just let him know, man. just take it at his own pace. it could have been worse. so just. we're just grateful that he's here now from the hospital.

>> pearsall facetimed with the teen. they had gathered saturday night for an annual party hosted by head coach kyle shanahan. pearsall also went to the team facility yesterday, letting everybody see and know that he's okay. >> soon as i saw him, i smiled, man, like i just, i smiled, went and wrapped him up, hugged him and i was just kind of heard what he he kind of just gave his story and, you know, just kind of try and listen to him and just be be there for him when we can. >> now pearsall is on the non football injury list. he's going to miss at least the first four games. the 49ers are hoping he'll he will return and play this season. >> the pearsall attack is making national headlines and spilling into politics, particularly the san francisco mayor's office. >> and the fact is, what we put in place worked. and it sends a strong message that if you do come to san francisco and you do commit these crimes, you will be arrested. >> she defunded the police

department three years ago, stripped $120 million out of our police department budget, has mismanaged our police department. where now overtime is getting capped and cut. >> mayor breed's challengers say this high profile shooting is a popular tourist area. reinforces the perception of out-of-control crime in san francisco, and they want more police on patrols. >> my solution is get them out of their cars on the street, we have the overtime to pay for it, and then secondly, to get those numbers back up, let's give incentives like student loan forgiveness to get them to want to come work in san francisco. >> in order for us to be able to draw conventions back, to draw tourism back, and to build our brand again globally, we have a lot of work to do, and the people i'm running against have created this perception, this sense of disorder. >> candidate aaron peskin issued this statement to ktvu saying, quote, turning this into a political football doesn't make

san francisco safer or represent who we are as a city. i'm representing by focusing on real public safety solutions, retaining 50 experienced officers at less cost than overtime. >> time now 506. the city of oakland says upgrades to the 911 system were completed last month, and they're already speeding up the response times now before the upgrades, oakland's 911 system failed to meet state standards for answering emergency calls in a timely manner. calls are supposed to be answered within 15 seconds. 90% of the time, oakland was only doing it 35% of the time, but the mayor told ktvu that has improved to 52%. the dispatch center is hiring new people with senior staff, training them, trying to reach that 90% standard. >> once they're able to work on their by themselves, it takes about 18 months for training. and so after that, 18 months has sunsetted. we're going to see that. your call when you call

into 911 will be picked up in a quicker. >> now, mayor tao also said she's still confident she is not a focus of the fbi investigation from back in june. the mayor says she knows she did nothing wrong and will be vindicated. >> the san francisco fire department now has a new interim chief. assistant deputy chief sandi tong was sworn into the position. she's the first asian-american and first paramedic to run the san francisco fire department. tong is taking over for chief jeanine nicholson, who retired. tong has been with the department for 35 years, serving with the emergency medical service division, having served the department for many, many years and having worked with many chiefs, officers, firefighters, paramedics and emts in the field. >> i have seen their dedication and hard work. they do an excellent job every day and i know they will continue to do so. so thank you, mayor breed, for this interim appointment. i will carry on the legacy of the san francisco fire department. >> tong may continue as chief if selected by mayor breed and the fire commission. now in the

process of selecting a permanent chief. >> time now 508. expect triple digit temperatures today in some parts of the bay area. for some of the most vulnerable people, like the elderly and the homeless, it's a dangerous time. santa clara county medical examiner has been investigating at least 28 potentially heat related deaths in july. >> people here are already agitated with the sweep. they're trying to move around. they're trying to get things sorted out. and so you're hot now. you have bad weather that's already, you know, irritating your lungs. >> and there's an alert issued by the bay area air quality management district warning that ozone or smog pollution levels may be higher. exercising outdoors, they say, should be limited to the morning when the smog is less concentrated. >> well, some big changes. we'll get to that in just a second here, not inland, but on the coast. these were your highs yesterday. if you were in santa rosa, not only at the airport

but downtown, it was a 100. concord, also 100. napa was close. livermore is close. palo alto 98. kentfield 96, oakland 89. in the city 85th september in the city. you know and i know it can get warm to hot. although we have some significant changes. there is a big fog bank there now. we had no fog yesterday, little to no fog today. we have a lot of fog on the coast. bases are shallow, so i kind of ease back a little on the coast. inland it won't matter. bayside warm to hot. inland, 90 to 100. but the air aloft. mount veeder is almost 80 with a northeast breeze. but look at the oakland hills. almost 70, but a south wind. yesterday they had a northeast. that's a big difference. still, though, there's some warm air in there, but some subtle changes today at least so far. 50s, 60s to 74. in fairfield, there's some warm temps out there. we are running warmer than 24 hours ago by two to what, eight degrees? with livermore leading the way at plus eight, a lot of high pressure over us and a lot of dry air. but a couple of changes here. you know, yesterday we had clear skies. today we'll have to deal with

some coast fog. so could ease up a little over by the beaches. but september heat has returned. the good news, though, is it looks like by friday, everyone will start to get in on a little bit of a cool down and then a big drop by saturday. west wind in the city yesterday was due east, now it's west. we'll see if it holds, but that's a subtle change from yesterday. a little bit of a low out here. we'll start sneaking towards us not to the end of the week, but for anybody. bayside inland temps will jump up pretty fast here. it won't take much, but that fog on the coast. i think that makes for a tricky forecast over there. otherwise your wednesday weather thick morning fog. watch out on highway one. maybe some of the bridges. otherwise fog, then sun 60s to low one hundreds. >> all right. thank you. steve. >> copper wire thefts are on the rise around the bay area. the incentive at&t is now offering. if you can help catch those thieves and dining solo at restaurants, the possible reasons why more americans are choosing to dine out alone

ok, 500 deluxe garden gnomes. wow. i only meant to order five. there's not enough money in my account for these. i'm gonna get charged. two things i just can't deal with. overdraft charges. and garden gnomes. but your bmo smart advantage checking account gives you an extra day to avoid an overdraft fee. nice to see a bank cutting people some slack. mistakes happen. and we give you time to correct them. so, you don't like gnomes huh? what about that one? that one i like. a lot. ♪ bmo ♪ ahh! another morning to savor the crunchy nooks & crannies™ splendor of a thomas' english muffin! thom...which is a nook and which is a cranny? well, that's a nook. cranny. cranny. cranny. nook. cranny. i mean they should be teaching you this in school. huzzah! a toast to breakfast.

banning software that enables price fixing for rents. it outlaws rental pricing software that allows landlords to share nonpublic information about their properties, which enables collusion. the board was concerned that many landlords were using that information in order to charge more for rent.

>> 50 wildfire sensors will be installed by multiple agencies in santa clara and san mateo counties as part of a program with stanford university and the department of homeland security. the sensors are designed to detect wildland fires earlier and alert first responders. they can also track movements of fire and smoke, ktvu allie rasmus will bring us a live report about the sensors coming up later this hour, and new surveillance video to show you from san francisco of a suspected arsonist at a family owned hardware store. >> the owner now tells us since that fire, things have only become worse. he says burglars have broken into his shop three times. >> and we're learning more about a deadly crash involving two cars over a cliff in san francisco. witnesses say one of the drivers hit a parked car, then both cars went over a wall near the city's historic cliff house. yesterday afternoon, the san francisco fire department says one driver was killed and the other was injured. police are still looking into the cause of the crash. >> our time now. 515. as copper

wire thefts surge around the bay area, at&t is now offering reward money aimed at catching the people who do it. police say stolen cables have led to mass outages of phone lines, internet service and power. it even affected a 911 call center in hercules and in pinole. the police chief in richmond announced. a man was found dead at a pge manhole during an attempted copper theft last month. >> in the past year, we've had over 220 reports of wire theft, which is about 200 more reports than we had in the previous year. >> stockton and richmond are two of the hotspots in california for copper theft, although this occurs everywhere around the state. >> we know based on the sting operations with law enforcement and our partnership with them, that this is where the copper is being purchased. >> now, at&t is offering $5,000 as a reward to anyone who can

help catch the copper thieves. >> a group of suspected burglars are in jail this morning after breaking into a car and stealing a family's jewelry collection. the victim was at a chase bank on mowry and fremont boulevard late last month. he walked out of the bank with two bags full of jewelry to use at an indian religious festival. he then drove to the post office to drop off some packages, but he didn't realize an suv had been following him. when he came back out, he found his car window smashed and all his jewelry was stolen. >> panicked, i looked inside. i saw that all my bags were gone. it makes me even more angry that you know what was supposed to be safe. and then i got it from a safe location and then, you know, let it go like that. >> fremont police tracked down two suspects and the stolen jewelry. the alameda county da has charged the two with grand theft. when it comes to dining out. new data shows more americans believe one. one is company and two is a crowd. the site open table says there's a

rising number of people choosing to eat out alone. solo reservations in the u.s. are up nearly 30% in the last two years. open table ceo thinks remote work might be a factor with more people going to restaurants to take a break from their home office. >> stigma of dining alone has faded, but it certainly accelerated post-pandemic. >> i have so many friends i love spending time with them, but i also like to have some time just by myself. >> restaurants are adjusting to the trend. some are creating exclusive services to cater to the growing number of solo diners and offering special tables and drink sessions with bartenders. >> all right, our time is 518. your new job could be trying out pumpkin pumpkin spice products now finance buzz is hiring a pumpkin spice pundit to test new fall themed products from trader joe's. the pumpkin spice expert will test more than 20 pumpkin

flavored food and drinks. the applicants you have to be at least 18 years old. the pay is a $1,000 and a $500 trader joe's gift cards. the application period will end september 10th. >> a wildfire in the tahoe national forest, 20 miles north of truckee, has grown to 2000 acres. the bear fire started monday afternoon near the community of sierra brooks. right now, almost 300 homes and other buildings are threatened, and there are evacuation orders for the roughly 500 people in the area. >> all right, pam. time is 518. steve paulson is always important, but even more so now with our weather. how do we look, steve? >> well, inland, it will still be hot, but the coast looks like there's some changes there. you guys. yesterday was fog free. that is not the case here today. there is a little low right out here in a slight southerly breeze. now we'll see if it holds. it may not. this is pretty strong. high pressure system. so inland temps will jump right back up. it does look like a little bit of a pullback

though over by the coast i mean to go from no fog to a big fog bank does make a difference. but for many inland it's a continuation of that september heat. we've had hotter temperatures but it sure jumped yesterday. good. 15 almost 20 degrees for some. looks like by the weekend though, there will be a huge drop. the city had an east wind yesterday. they have a west wind today. south wind oakland. south oakland north. they had a north northeast yesterday. now they're still a little bit of a northerly breeze for some, but some subtle changes around san francisco and over to oakland. 5060 to 70 brentwood and fairfield. they will easily be around 102 103 today, but other locations should ease up a little bit. high pressure, as we say, large and in charge, but some subtle changes today with that mere fact that that fog is there versus yesterday when i was trying to find something on the san mateo coast, i can find a lot up and down the coast today. so mild coast, warm to hot inland, fog won't make any kind of a push inland. so your wednesday weather, all it is over the bay though i should say. lots of thick fog. watch out. highway one, maybe over the

bay bridge, richmond, san rafael, golden gate for sure. could have some reduced visibility inland. we're one on one, just like the freeway. there for concord, but 6070 closer to the water. i think tomorrow will be the hottest day i really do. then after that fog starts to creep back, a big drop on the weekend. >> all right, steve, thank you. time now, 520. the coliseum complex in oakland has a new owner. we'll tell you what's next for the 58 year old ballpark and the surrounding land. and we're less than a week away from the 49ers first game of the new season. up next, the frustration some of the fans have over the new rules for tailgating at levi's stadium

now in the hands of the african american sports and entertainment group. the group celebrated the purchase of the stadium and the surrounding 155 acre property. they have big plans for that site, including turning it into oakland's version of san francisco's mission bay or the crypto.com arena complex in los angeles. once a planning permit is granted, the oakland coliseum site is expected to have an athletic venue and sports entertainment tourism area, including dining and housing. >> every iteration, the arena would stay and we're probably going to focus on that as the first phase. in addition to that, we, you know, we plan on probably dividing the site up

into 20 different development paths. >> there is no world where we're going to allow for this place to just be a blight. right. and so the hegenberger corridor, the whole corridor is my number one priority corridor in the city. >> the african american sports and entertainment group hopes construction will begin in 2 to 3 years. for the time being, though, the coliseum itself will remain just like it is with the 40 niners are welcoming back two of their best players, both offensive tackle trent williams and wide receiver brandon aiyuk, who had the team santa clara headquarters. trent williams is an all-pro and future hall of fame. he agreed to a restructured three year contract worth more than $82.5 million, including the next two seasons guaranteed. >> i wouldn't call it a dispute, but restructure. so, it took time to make to get to where both sides feel like we've, it's a win win.

but. so watch out. highway one maybe over some of the bridges there. golden gate for sure. 5060 on the temps. although we had zero fog yesterday and today we do so that makes a big noticeable change here at least coast and maybe bayside inland can help you. probably still 90s to low 100 so. but some subtle changes over by the coast today. so we'll go from 70s 80s, 90s to 100 degrees. all right. sal is here. good. something new. what? >> yeah, it's pretty good out there so far, steve. we don't have a lot going on, which is nice. let's go right to the richmond bridge. a triple a traffic camera will show us that this commute looks pretty good. if you want to get a nice drive before everyone else gets there. now's the time on this bridge. bay bridge. same thing goes. not a big backup. this will probably change in the next half hour. and looking at interstate 880, that traffic is moving along pretty well. as you drive through the area. and also at the south bay commute, we're off to a nice start. 531 let's go

back to the headlines. >> all right. thank you sal. some local firefighters have another tool to help fight and even prevent wildfires. ktvu sally rasmus joins us from the san mateo county area with the details of the new wildfire sensors now in place. ali >> yes, wildfire safety is always top of mind when we have hot, dry weather. like we're expecting today and tomorrow. and this week, a group of fire departments and emergency organizations announced that they are receiving about 50 wildfire sensors that will be placed in santa clara and san mateo counties. the n5 sensors have been used before by other jurisdictions. you may have heard of them. most recently, last year, the city of oakland placed ten of these wildfire sensors in the oakland hills to help detect and prevent wildfires. now, the way the technology works, the sensors can detect changes in gas, in particulates, chemicals and heat on the ground, and then uses artificial intelligence to identify when a fire has ignited. or in some cases, if the conditions are ripe for a

fire to ignite in that spot. the sensors then send real time alerts to local fire departments who can respond. now. here on the peninsula, the wildfire sensors will be installed in the town of woodside. the town of portola valley and in unincorporated parts of san mateo county. the department of homeland security and stanford university are partnering with these local fire departments to put these sensors in place in these urban wild wildfire interface areas. those are areas with a lot of hills, a lot of grass areas that are likely to have higher wildfire risks. live in woodside, ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> okay, ali thank you. time now 533. the owner of a san francisco hardware store predicts it will take more than a year to rebuild and then reopen his business after it was deliberately set on fire. it happened august 25th at the great wall hardware store on taraval street. the owner is now sharing surveillance video, hoping it will help identify the arsonist. since that fire, the

hardware store has been broken into three times. police have arrested two people for the burglaries, but the damage has already been done. >> that was just cold blooded. and you know, this has been here for 41 years. it's a community, you know, it's part of the community, and the community is part of me. that hurt a lot. >> now the store owner is thanking his neighbors for their support. a gofundme page has been so far raised more than $50,000 to help him rebuild. >> we're learning more about a deadly crash involving two cars that went over a cliff in san francisco. the two cars crashed through a wall near the city's historic cliff house yesterday afternoon. san francisco fire says one driver was killed, the other was injured. we spoke to several people in the area who witnessed the accident, who say one of the cars was parked when it was hit. >> one of them that looked like it was the one that went off and maybe took another one with it. it was pretty beat up. it was rolled and it looked like it was missing its back axle. so it

looked pretty, pretty grim and like some car parts, like lying on the beach with, like, a wheel, >> and like other parts of the car. >> police are still looking into what caused the suv to lose control. sf fire says the victims have been identified, but at this time they are not releasing their names. the harris and trump campaigns will target different states today, but plan to address the same issue. uncertainties about the economy. new polls show democratic presidential nominee kamala harris is leading in several battleground states, and will campaign today in new hampshire. it's considered a reliably blue state, but she will be there to tout her plan to encourage small business growth. >> well aware of the historic progress that the biden-harris administration has made in job creation, health care access and so many other critical areas, you've got a presidential election creating anxiousness. >> you've got a slowing or potentially slowing global economy as well as a slowing us economy. you've got china demand

slowing. you've got oil disruptions around the world. in libya. >> republican presidential nominee donald trump will take part in a fox news town hall tonight in pennsylvania. >> our time is 535. it's a bittersweet day for longtime east bay lawmaker nancy skinner. berkeley state senator nancy skinner posted this photo online as the state senate wrapped up its session. she says she's proud that her team delivered 15 bills this year to the governor's desk, including bills on affordable housing, gun violence prevention and curbing organized retail theft. nancy skinner, who is 70 years old, will be leaving office at the end of this year. she was first elected to the berkeley city council back in 1984. >> state health officials say they are still investigating cases of valley fever among people who attended a music festival near bakersfield. 19 people now have confirmed cases of valley fever after they attended or worked at the

lightning in a bottle festival in may. that's up from five confirmed cases at the end of july. the state department of public health is asking people who think they might have become sick with valley fever to complete a voluntary survey on its website. >> our time now 536 academic experts raising alarms about the serious impacts facing students who constantly are missing school. education officials say chronic absenteeism raises the student's chances of dropping out of school, making it harder for them to get into college and then earn a high paying job. it can also lead to students missing out on building important life skills that are taught on the school campus. >> we have opportunities to learn how to problem solve, how to how to work together, social skills, responsibility. chronic absenteeism, to me is defined as too many absences to effectively get what you should be getting from school. >> chronic absenteeism often

occurs more among children from low income households and children of color. here in california, a student is considered chronically absent if they miss 10% of school days. no matter what the reason is, a new survey finds nearly one third of students were a grade level behind going into this school year. >> the national center for education tracked education metrics at more than 1600 schools. the data is meant to show how schools are recovering from the impact of covid 19. schools in the west are actually falling farther behind compared to the rest of the country. 40% of students are likely behind grade level, which is worse than two years ago. >> well, the santa clara valley water district has won a lawsuit against one of its directors accused of taking thousands of pages of internal documents. santa clara county superior court judge ordered valley water director rebecca eisenberg to return a 2000 page report to valley water officials back in

coast. there's some thick fog up and down the coast. we had no fog yesterday. now the bases are shallow, so highway one, maybe over the golden gate, could run into a wall of fog in the morning. i think it will get chewed up, but bayside and inland? probably not much change here. 90s to low 100 5060s on the temps 66 out in rio vista. also brentwood. also 50s for many here, mostly mid 50s 60 though mountain view and san jose says 61. in san jose airport runs ridiculously warm. a little bit of a west northwest breeze in the city. they had a due east yesterday. oakland, berkeley hills, a south wind versus a northeast yesterday. now we'll see if it holds. but that is a significant difference from yesterday when it was all east or northeast, 5060s, even some 70s for some. but the high winds out there, you see that low to the west southwest here. so it's actually a double barrel high which is going to translate into a warm to hot conditions pretty fast here, at least. inland coast may come down a few degrees before i think everyone jumps up a few. tomorrow. that

will be the hottest day and then all signs point towards transition day being friday. so for today, some fog on the coast. now again it's on borrowed time. but the mere fact that it's there versus not yesterday should lead to a little bit of a cool down for those right near the right, near the water's edge, inland 90 to 100. no help for you yet. lots of help. those on the way. by saturday. >> thank you. steve, a somber night in the south bay. the gathering to honor the lives of the israeli hostages found dead in gaza [ding] [upbeat music] ♪ yeah, baby, i like it like that ♪ ♪ i like it like that, i like it like that ♪ ♪ si a ti te quiero mi amor, i like it like that ♪

little bit of a change compared to yesterday. the fog though, is the biggest change. 5060s on the temps. some locations upper 60s to near 70. there is a low west southwest of us. eventually that will punch in, but probably not until late friday into saturday. in the meantime, that high says i'm in charge, so coast fog, sun so mild to warm to hot inland temps. i don't think there's anything to save you today. but wednesday weather. lots of thick morning fog. it will burn off, but then fog, then sun hot inland 100 for many, although 60s 70s i think leaning more towards the coast today. tomorrow looks to be the hottest day after that transition day. friday. cool down for your weekend. >> thank you steve. animal rights activists planning a rally in sonoma county. coming up. new in our 6:00 hour. the measure they want on the november ballot and the highly anticipated sequel to beetlejuice, the classic movie from the 1980s, will come out tomorrow. >> we'll hear from some of the stars of the new movie and what it was like working with

until probably saturday. but that high is squashing that fog. so highway one maybe on the golden gate bridge we could have a wall of some thick fog, but so fog on the coast, inland temps will still be warm to hot. temperatures will be anywhere from 70s, 80s, 90s to near 100. all right, so here's 6:00. where are we going first? >> yeah, let's go to highway 37. steve, it's pretty slow heading over west out of 37. over to novato. most of the slowing is in vallejo right now heading west. so if you're trying to leave vallejo, that's what's going on westbound. it's not because of a crash. it's just because people are out there and, you know, people are getting a little bit more crowded. the roads are getting a little bit more crowded here on. also on 242 i've noticed. 242 has a crowd heading down to 680. highway four is going to be slow. triple a traffic camera. now i want to show you the bay bridge. that is getting filled in a little bit here. it's filling in to about the end of that parking lot. the traffic on the bridge actually looks okay getting into san francisco at

they accuse landlords who use this software of collusion, referencing lawsuits filed by the u.s. department of justice, as well as at least eight other state attorney generals, even vice president kamala harris mentioned the legality of this practice during the democratic national convention. san francisco hopes to be a trailblazer in ending the use of this software, saying it has a list of landlords in the city that use it. >> we will become the first city in america to pass such a law. thank you colleagues. same house, same call. this ordinance is finally passed and will be an example for cities all over this country. >> board of supervisors president and mayoral candidate aaron peskin authored the ordinance. his office says advocates from other cities and jurisdictions are looking at san francisco. they've been reaching out for guidance to pass and write a law of their own. the legislation will officially become law in san francisco, 30

the time. but mayor xiang tao told ktvu that has improved to 52%. the dispatch center is also hiring new people with senior staff training them, trying to reach that 90% standard. >> once they're able to work on their by themselves, it takes about 18 months for training. and so after that, 18 months has sunsetted. we're going to see that your call when you call into 911 will be picked up in a quicker. >> mayor tao also said she's still confident that she is not a focus of the fbi probe from back in june. the mayor says she knows she did nothing wrong and will be vindicated. well, as copper wire theft surges here in the bay area, at&t is now offering reward money to help catch the thieves. the police say stolen cables have led to mass outages of phone lines. internet service and power. it even affected a 911 call center in hercules and in pinole. the

charges against a minor in adult court? the only mechanism for that is to request a transfer hearing, which requires that a judge rule on the minor's fitness to be transferred to adult court. >> and san francisco district attorney brooke jenkins did not say how long that process could take. >> the pearsall attack is spilling into politics, particularly the san francisco mayor's race. ktvu is andre senior joining us now with more on this political fallout. andre. >> well, good morning, pam. the november election is less than two months away, and the shocking shooting has turned into a storyline in the race for city hall. ktvu spoke to san francisco mayor london breed and her top challengers. mayor breed is acknowledging that this high profile crime is a bad look for the city, but she insists that her plan to combat crime is working. pointing to recent data showing crime activity is trending downward. >> and the fact is, what we put in place worked, and it sends a strong message that if you do come to san francisco and you do

commit these crimes, you will be arrested. you don't know, right? >> yeah. >> reid's challengers say this shooting is one of the city's most popular in one of the city's most popular areas only reinforces the perception of out-of-control crime in san francisco. mayoral candidates are calling for more police patrols. >> she defunded the police department three years ago, stripped $120 million out of our police department budget, has mismanaged our police department. where now overtime is getting capped and cut. >> my solution is get them out of their cars on the street. we have the overtime to pay for it. and then secondly, to get those numbers back up, let's give incentives like student loan forgiveness to get them to want to come work in san francisco in order for us to be able to draw conventions back, to draw tourism, back, and to build our brand again globally, we have a lot of work to do. >> and the people i'm running against have created this perception, this sense of

disorder. >> candidate aaron peskin issued this statement to ktvu saying, quote, turning this into a political football doesn't make san francisco safer or represent who we are as a city. i'm represented by represented by focusing on real public safety solutions, retaining 50 experienced officers at less cost and overtime, san francisco voters have another chance to hear the positions of each candidate. mayoral debate is scheduled for thursday night, september 19th. pam. >> all right. thank you. andre. and the 49ers, for the first time, are now talking publicly about the terrifying moments after the shooting in their earliest calls that i received were were extremely scary. >> hey, you know, we believe ricky's been shot in the chest, and that outcome is not usually a good one. >> just hug them and, just just let them know, man. just take it at his own pace. could have been worse. so it's just we're just grateful that he's here from the hospital. >> pearsall facetimed with the team, which had gathered saturday night for an annual party hosted by head coach kyle

shanahan. pearsall also went to the team facility yesterday to let everyone know he is okay. >> so as i saw him, i smiled. man, like i just, i smiled, went and wrapped him up, hugged him. i was just kind of heard what he he kind of just gave his story and, you know, just kind of try and listen to him and just be be there for him when we can. >> pearsall is on the non-football injury list and will miss at least the first four games, but the team is hopeful that he will return this season. >> our time now 615. the rally will be held this morning by animal rights activists in petaluma calling for an end to factory farming. the demonstrators are supporting measure j, a sonoma county ballot measure that they say will get rid of mass factory farming by setting limits on the number of animals that can be kept in one facility. purdue is one of the biggest producers in the country. that rally will be held at 10 a.m. right outside of the purdue poultry facility. and after the rally, demonstrators plan to go to a court hearing

for an animal rights activist. 21 year old zoe rosenberg is charged with stealing and freeing about five chickens from purdue's petaluma poultry back in 2023. it happened during an early morning protest outside of that farm. today, her supporters are expected to gather at the sonoma county courthouse in santa rosa about noontime. >> a man is under arrest in monterey county accused of shooting dozens of farm animals. the sheriff's office says deputies were called to prunedale yesterday morning to reports of gunfire and with the help of a drone, they spotted 39 year old vicente arroyo near a crashed vehicle. multiple rifles and shotguns were seized. investigators say they believe arroyo randomly shot and killed approximately 80 animals, including miniature horses, goats, rabbits, chickens and ducks. it's not clear who the animals belong to or why the suspect shot him, but investigators say they are grateful for the calls of the shooting. >> time is 617 and we are seeing

traffic getting a little busier on some of these commutes. you can see that on the richmond bridge, our triple a traffic camera shows us that it's still looking pretty good. heading over to marin county. highway 37, as we mentioned, is heavy. getting over from vallejo, over to novato. not all the way, but it's slow in vallejo. bay bridge is backed up now over crossing here from the 880 overcrossing, and there have been no problems on interstate 880. the south bay commute. so far still looks good, but that will start to change as we get closer to 7:00. at 618. now let's bring steve back with today's weather. >> thank you, kind sir. we'll get to the highs yesterday. although if you notice, maybe you're not. you're listening. not watching. there's a pretty good fog bank there from the bay bridge toll plaza that was not there yesterday. so i do think we ease up a little bit. coast and bay today. then tomorrow looks to be the hottest day across the board here. it was hot enough yesterday. santa rosa hit 100 degrees. somebody wrote

me on twitter and said, you kno, when's the last time santa rosa was 100? in september, not last year, only 93, but two years ago. it was blazing hot. you hit 108 and 114 on the sixth and the eighth. so it was only two years ago. but concord was also in there. napa and livermore were close. palo alto was up there kentfield 96, oakland 89. in the city, 85. the city temp in september is one of life's biggest weather challenges. i mean, you know and i know june, july and august. usually you can get within a degree or two. september all bets are off today. i think it will be a little bit cooler after that. 85 yesterday, because there's a huge fog bank out there and now the bases are low. they're really low and it'll burn off. but there was no fog yesterday inland. that can't help you until probably, if not friday for sure. on saturday. northeast wind at mount veeder yet oakland hill. that's right above the claremont. caldecott 68 is warm, however, there was a northeast

wind yesterday. it's a south wind today. this morning. now we'll see if it holds. if it doesn't hold, then you know it'll wipe it out. but i think that's a subtle change there at least for a few today compared to yesterday, 5060 on the temps here. there's san francisco, west wind. yesterday it was due east oakland north has a south wind. oakland south has a little northerly breeze. davis point west wind. so i mean there's still enough of a northerly breeze but some subtle changes today compared to yesterday. there's a low west southwest of us that will be here starting late friday into saturday for the cooldown. but the highs as you know, today inland, i'm in charge coast. you had some fog, but that's going to burn off. so thick fog and then sunny. it will be warm to hot. i think a little bit cooler over by the coast. so 6070 there 90s to low 100 inland. tomorrow looks to be the hottest day. then we start to pull back a little. friday. big drop on the weekend. >> thank you steve. >> cracks in the house are just from the foundation, twisting and tearing the house apart. which is why i lifted the house.

i came to bayview hunter's point, where there was only one pediatrician to serve more than 10,000 children. daniel lurie said, i'm going to help. we opened a clinic for our most vulnerable children. i have worked shoulder to shoulder with him as we have brought solutions where people thought the problem was unsolvable. daniel doesn't take excuses. he holds himself accountable. and i know that he can do it for the city of san francisco.

is the first city in the country to ban software that enables rent price fixing. the city says the software allows landlords to share nonpublic information, which enables collusion. we're learning more about a deadly crash involving two cars over a cliff in san francisco. witnesses say one of the drivers hit a parked car, then both cars went over a wall near the city's historic cliff house yesterday afternoon. the san francisco fire department says one driver was killed and the other was injured. police are still looking into the cause of the crash. governor newsom is declaring a state of emergency for the city of rancho palos verdes, just south of los angeles. now, the ground in the area is sliding as much as 12in per week, and that's forcing authorities to shut off the power for hundreds of homes. edison, the local electric utility, says it's too dangerous to keep power running to the

area because of concerns about utility equipment sparking a fire. >> i don't know that there's an insurance claim to be had there, right? so, i mean, for the structure of the house, there might be a claim as far as you know, helping her find a place to stay temporarily. but you know, you. my dad worked his whole life to buy here. >> and now i don't know. this is really rough. >> yeah. sorry >> the new state of emergency. drexel. state agencies to support emergency services in the area. infrastructure projects are now underway to try to help stabilize the land. the future of the oakland coliseum complex is now in the hands of the african american sports and entertainment group. it celebrated the purchase of the stadium and the surrounding 155 acre property. the group has big plans for the site, hoping to turn it into oakland's version of san francisco's mission bay or the crypto.com arena complex in los angeles. once a planning

permit is granted, the oakland coliseum site is expected to have an athletic venue, a sports entertainment tourism area including dining and housing. >> every iteration, the arena would stay, and we're probably going to focus on that as the first phase. in addition to that, we, you know, we plan on probably dividing the site up into 20 different development paths. >> there is no world where we're going to allow for this place to just be a blight. right. and so the hegenberger corridor, the whole corridor is my number one priority corridor in the city. >> the african american sports and entertainment group hopes construction will begin in 2 to 3 years. for the time being, the coliseum itself will remain as is, disbursing grants for six emotions running high at the state capitol. the demands by california's reparations task force after the legislative black caucus blocked their proposals. >> plus, it's not going to stop

you from coming here and doing this. your picnics. no never. >> nature lovers not letting a frightening encounter at a park run ruin their day. the fearless response by a father whose four year old was attacked by a mountain lion

a family owned business targeted by a suspected arsonist. we'll show you the series of shocking images of the person who's been arrested. and firefighters on the peninsula now have a new tool to help fight and prevent wildfires. we'll tell you how these tools could help. areas that are prone to fires right here in the bay area from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two. all right. >> as we take you live to the opening bell this morning, nvidia stock set to drop another 1.5% after bloomberg's report that the bay area chip company has received a subpoena from the department of justice concerning an antitrust investigation that is contributing to the drop this morning for all three indexes. but at this point, it's in the early stages of questioning. so we will certainly be keeping an eye on that supply and demand. it's a big demand for ai chips. so thank you for joining us here

on mornings on two i'm pam cook and good morning i'm dave clark. >> it's the middle of the week. it's wednesday september 4th so it's still too warm to you i'm telling you i went outside a minute ago. >> it's hot. >> it is beautiful outside our studio right now. okay hold it right here. >> steve. yeah. hold this temperature. >> well, i can't do that for you, pam. i'll try, but i don't think i can succeed on that. but this fog bank was not there yesterday. now, the bases are extremely low. there's an inversion, high pressure aloft, which is squashing everything. but there's fog over the bay. oakland airport, sfo reporting some low clouds. and also the bay bridge toll plaza and up and down the coast. now, i don't think it will last long, but it's there. and it was not there yesterday. so it leads me to believe it will be a little cooler. coast and bay and the inland. i don't think i can help you that high winds out, but it will be here another couple of days. and then out of the picture, some significant changes. look to be in store for next week. but today if you're inland, hot coast and bay, not so much, but then it will

rebound tomorrow before the weekend it cools off 70s 80s, 90s to near 100. all right. south here. and we are beginning with what? >> let's go right to the bay bridge. steve, i want to show it to you. and it is foggy, as steve mentioned, at the bay bridge. not foggy enough for it to be a hazard to drivers, but there is fog there. you can see traffic is moving along slowly. also this morning we're looking at interstate 880 north and southbound. that looks good. eastbound 24 broadway. they're holding traffic temporarily to remove a stall. should be gone soon. and if you're driving in the south bay, the south bay commute looks very good. southbound 101 at hellyer. they're clearing an accident. northbound 101. traffic not affected there. 631 let's get back to the headlines. >> all right. thank you. sal. local firefighters have another tool to help them fight. and possibly prevent wildfires. >> ktvu sally rasmus joining us live now to tell us about these new wildfire sensors that are being installed in parts of san mateo county. good morning alex. >> good morning dave and pam.

while firefighters will tell you there is no such thing as fire season. wildfires can and do break out in california pretty much any time of year. but when we do have hot, dry weather like we're experiencing today and tomorrow. wildfire safety is top of mind. i'll step out of the way so you can see this gorgeous view here behind us. a lot of dry grass here, along with some of the trees. and a nice sunrise here in the town of woodside. now this week, a group of wild fire departments and emergency organizations in santa clara and san mateo counties announced that they are getting 50 wildfire sensors. they'll be installed in the town of woodside, portola valley, and in unincorporated parts of san mateo county. those five sensors can detect gas and particulates, chemicals and heat on the ground, and then use artificial intelligence to identify when a fire has ignited. they can then send real time alerts to local fire departments to respond quickly before any smoke can even be seen. other cities and

towns have used these sensors as well. last year, the city of oakland placed ten of those n-5 wildfire sensors in the oakland hills to help detect and prevent wildfires as part of a two year pilot program here on the peninsula. the department of homeland security and stanford university partnered with the santa clara fire safe council, the woodside fire protection district, and the palo alto fire department. in order to bring that technology here. so those 50 new wildfire sensors are going to be installed throughout unincorporated parts of san mateo county. the town of woodside and the town of portola valley, as well. and they're really focusing on placing these sensors in neighborhoods that are part of the urban wildlife interface. so those are neighborhoods that are right next to a lot of dry grass hillsides, forest wildlife areas, places that are at high risk for wildfires. live in woodside, ali rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> thank you. ali. a wildfire in the tahoe national forest, 20 miles north of truckee, has grown to 2000 acres. it started

monday afternoon near the community of sierra brooks. right now, almost 300 homes and other buildings are threatened, and there are evacuation orders for roughly 500 people in the area. >> our time is now 634. a private ceremony will be held this coming saturday for a cal firefighter who died on duty. a procession was held yesterday through salinas for 47 year old christopher ward. he was a fire apparatus engineer who suffered a medical emergency last thursday. ward started as a seasonal firefighter back in 2020 before being promoted to his current position. in a statement, the governor's office called him, quote, a man of considerable passion and determination. known for his sharp wit and loving nature, the owner of a san francisco hardware store predicts it will take more than a year to rebuild and reopen his business after it was deliberately set on fire. >> it happened august 25th at the great wall hardware store on taraval street. the owner is now

sharing surveillance video, hoping it will help identify the arsonist. take a look at this video now. since the fire. the hardware store has been broken into three times. police have arrested two people for the burglaries, but the damage has already been done. >> that was just cold blooded. and you know, this has been here for 41 years. it's a community, you know, it's part of the community, and the community is part of me. that hurt a lot. >> the store owner is thanking his neighborhood for their support. a gofundme page has so far raised more than $50,000 to help him rebuild. the harris and trump campaigns will target different states today, but plan to address the same issue. uncertainties about the economy. new polls show democratic presidential nominee kamala harris is leading in several battleground states and will campaign today in new hampshire. it's considered a reliably blue state, and she'll be there to talk about her plans to help small business. >> well aware of the historic progress that the biden-harris

administration has made in job creation, health care access and so many other critical areas, you've got a presidential election creating anxiousness. >> you've got a slowing or potentially slowing global economy as well as a slowing us economy. you've got china demand slowing. you've got oil disruptions around the world in libya. >> republican presidential nominee donald trump will take part in a fox news town hall tonight in pennsylvania. >> our time now, 636 emotions still running high this morning after california's legislative black caucus did not take a vote on proposals for reparations. in a last minute decision, the caucus blocked votes on proposals that would have created a state agency and also a fund for reparations. some of the members say they feared a veto by the governor. others say the bills just didn't have the votes. the leader of the california reparations task force helped to come up with the proposals, and says it caught her off guard. >> we saw was a complete

betrayal of a by the california legislative black caucus against their own constituents. they chose to prioritize their ego and their own self-interest over the people that they claim to serve. >> now, one member of that task force told politico that the governor's office said there wasn't money in the budget to create a new agency focusing on reparations. >> time is 637, and wow, there's fog on the golden gate bridge. it's pretty dense. let's go right to it. triple a traffic camera showing us the fog here. and i think a lot of people who don't like the hot weather love the fog, at least right now. but it might be a little bit dense for you to drive through if you're in marin county. driver. though you're used to this. probably not going to be anything to write home about, but it's there. let's talk about it anyway. let's talk about highway four. there's definitely no fog here in bay point as we go about 4050 miles east, you

can see that traffic is moving along okay. this is a look at the richmond bridge and also a look at the bay bridge. both of those bridges have slow traffic at the toll plazas. 638. let's bring steve back in here with today's weather. >> all right, sal, we will look at yesterday's high temps. i mean, we went from monday low 80s for many to 90 and 100 yesterday. even the city shot up to 85. september's that time of year where you're just you're hoping your forecast high is close because it's tough. and along the coast and in the city in september, oakland, almost 90 kentfield 96, palo alto 98, livermore and napa close niner niner and concord and santa rosa hit 100 degrees. warm to hot. not far away from the coast today, but some thick morning fog as south touched on it. i've been mentioning it all morning long. there is no fog at all yesterday, except a teeny bit on the san mateo coast. there's a lot more today. which leads me to believe they'll come down a

few degrees inland. can't help you. it's probably late friday, more likely saturday, so there will be some hot temperatures. although the city has a west wind. yesterday was due east. that's a big change, although some of the higher elevations still have a north northeast. oakland hills have been bouncing between south and north, but yesterday, above the claremont that was a northeast. today it's a south. so some. we'll see if it holds, but that's a noticeable change compared to 24 hours ago. that high though, is continuing to lock in for another day or two. coast fog, sun mild to warm in few steps inland. you won't have any problem finding hot, but the fog being there leads me to believe we'll see a little pullback on some of the coast and bay temps. then tomorrow we'll jump it back up before we finally start to cool down into the weekend. there is a possibility he says we could see some rain here next wednesday. some models are forecasting at it. it verified in august, so i'm not going to ignore it for next wednesday. today though, if you're inland, it's hot. if you're near the coast, maybe not so much. tomorrow looks to be the hottest day. then fog starts to creep back and it pours back in on the

weekend. >> all right. thank you. steve. a five year old boy is recovering after being attacked by a mountain lion in southern california. it happened sunday afternoon while the child was playing near his family's picnic table at malibu creek state park in calabasas. the child had to be airlifted to a hospital with significant injuries, but was released the next day. >> 1986. in california, there's been 26 people who've been injured by cougars, four of which were fatal. and you know, those are real people. these are not just numbers, but these statistics do demonstrate that human cougar interactions like this are highly unusual. >> now, the big cat was caught and euthanized. the cougar conservancy website has some advice for people who visit or live near wildlife areas, and that includes avoid wearing earphones and listening to music when you're walking and keeping some kind of blow horn or even bear spray handy. >> all right, man. time now. 641

kids going back to classrooms also means there will be more school busses on the road. we'll tell you how some states are cracking down on drivers who illegally drive around and pass those yellow school busses dupixent helps people with asthma breathe better in as little as 2 weeks. and when you can breathe better, what isn't better? this is better. this is better.

that's better. and that. even this. dupixent is an add-on treatment for specific types of moderate-to-severe asthma. it works with your asthma medicine to help improve lung function. that's pretty good! dupixent is not for sudden breathing problems. it's proven to help prevent asthma attacks. it can reduce or even eliminate oral steroids. and doesn't that make things better? dupixent can cause allergic reactions that can be severe. tell your doctor right away if you have rash, chest pain, worsening shortness of breath, tingling or numbness in your limbs. tell your doctor about new or worsening joint aches and pain or a parasitic infection. don't change or stop asthma medicines including steroids, without talking to your doctor. when you can get more out of your lungs, you can du more with less asthma. and isn't that better? ask your doctor about dupixent, the most prescribed biologic in asthma.

on rental car theft. now rental car companies have reported a 266% increase in thefts over the past three years. a new bill would allow the use of electronic surveillance technology to find those stolen cars faster. many of the stolen rental cars are being used for serious crimes, such as organized shoplifting, home invasion and robberies. >> unfortunately, the law right now doesn't allow for a rental car company to take any steps when a rental car is not returned for 72 hours. and unfortunately, by the time 72 hours goes by, very often that car has already been used in crimes or it's disappeared

entirely, or it's on the other side of the border. >> the goal is to reduce the time to locate those cars to within 24 hours. >> well, the 49ers are rallying around ricky pearsall, the rookie first round draft pick who was shot in san francisco's union square over the weekend from the hospital. pearsall facetimed with the team as they gathered saturday night for an annual party hosted by head coach kyle shanahan. pearsall is now in the non-football injury list. he'll miss at least the first four games. >> the mourning continues in the bay area for the six israeli hostages killed last weekend by hamas in los gatos. the community organized a vigil to honor them. the london fire for the benefit of the vigil was held at congregation shir hadash last night. organizers say the news of the deaths shook the community. among those who were killed was israeli american hirsh goldberg-polin, who lived in the bay area as a child. one

speaker reflected on all the hostages taken during the october 7th attack. >> their names are the names of our children, our mothers, our fathers, our sisters, our brothers, our grandparents, our lovers, our friends, our neighbors. >> those who gathered said that they stand in solidarity with the families of those who died, and the families of roughly 100 hostages who remain captive in gaza. there's a growing danger among parents and road safety advocates. drivers ignoring the flashing stop signs attached to school busses. now, a recent study found 43.5 million cars illegally pass school busses each year across the country. the to stop the illegal move. some states have the stop arm camera laws. now the school busses are equipped with cameras and with the help of ai, any cars going around the stopped busses are now getting a ticket in miami, florida, police say

they have given out nearly 12,000 citations in the first two weeks of school. >> video evidence package gets transmitted to the miami-dade county police department, where they review the footage and they make a final determination about whether to issue someone a violation or not. >> more than two dozen states have recently passed those stop arm camera laws, but not here in california. california school busses are not equipped with the cameras, so it is up to drivers to report negligent drivers. all right, pam. >> time is 647. a new study is now that says a growing number of students are falling behind in school because of stress. reports say high anxiety among kids doubled to more than 20% during the pandemic. psychiatrists say one cause of anxiety is social media, and that it's contributed to a fear of failure in children, prompting them to stop trying new things. they say one way for parents to help out is to address those stressors directly

with the kids, instead of solving the problem for them. >> we accommodate what that child is anxious about, and that's not helping our kids because we know what the best sort of antidote for anxiety is exposing them to what is making what they're afraid of. >> now, the educators also say if parents if you notice your kids are struggling with school related anxiety, you can also reach out to their teachers calls to investigate e-commerce websites sheehan and ta'amu are underway over concerns about products available that are known to lead to the death of children. >> now in a joint statement, two consumer product safety commissioners are calling on the investigation. the commissioner cited an article in the information last month that found padded crib bumpers were being sold online, despite the fact that the product had been banned by congress two years ago. additionally, the commissioners are also asking for an examination of asian factories and vendors that are selling low value direct to

consumer goods. a tiktok trend that went viral over the weekend is now being investigated as fraud. some tiktok users are going to chase bank atm machines to deposit fake checks, and then they're taking out cash. the trend went viral, but chase bank says the trend is actually check fraud. and that's a criminal offense. chase says it is reviewing the people involved, and they do face possible criminal charges. your new job could be trying out pumpkin spice products. finance buzz is hiring a pumpkin spice pundit to test new fall themed products from trader joe's. the pumpkin spice expert will test more than 20 pumpkin flavored food and drinks. applicants need to be at least 18 years old. the pay is $1,000 and a $500. trader joe's gift card applications and september 10th. >> our time now 650. alameda county firefighters had to actually take a quick break during a very hot day to get some nourishment and refreshments yesterday. engine

26 stopped by this pop up lemonade stand on lakeshore road in castro valley. these young dancers from san leandro run that lemonade stand. they say they're raising the money to take a trip to disneyland. >> time now. 650. we do have slow traffic to talk about at the bay bridge. let's go. right to it here from our triple a traffic camera. it's backed up all the way out to the maze, and the metering lights are on. so we do have the typical morning commute as we look at interstate 880 north and south. you can see that traffic is moving along. okay. and the south bay commute is all right. there's a little bit of slowing, but this is your time to get out there before everyone else does. and the 880 freeway, interstate 880 between, let's say, san leandro and hayward and union city does have a little bit of slow traffic heading south. 651 let's talk about today's weather. and here's steve. >> sal. thank you sir. a much

bigger fog bank for sure on the golden gate bridge. reduced visibility also. hello. also over the bay, oakland, san francisco. and so that was not there yesterday. now again, the bases are low and don't last long. but that is a change from yesterday. at this time when there was no fog except a teeny bit on the san mateo coast. so 5060s on the temps. the city has a west wind at this time. yesterday was due east oakland north has a south wind. yesterday at this time it was northeast. so some locations still showing a northeast. others are kind of trending a little bit westerly at least. maybe for a few hours. but that low to the west southwest will get here late friday and saturday for a pretty significant cooldown. but today, high pressure is still pretty much in charge, except for the coast and parts of the bay. once that fog retreats, then inland temps will 90s to low one hundreds, but fog, then sun, so it can't help inland areas until later. coast and bay i think. could do a little bit today. we'll get one more jump

tomorrow. then everything starts to ease off a little bit. and big drop on the weekend there. dave >> okay steve. thank you. time is 652. we're now less than five days away from the 49ers first regular season game, and we have details of the big contract signed by the final holdout. right now, though, let's check in with gasia mikaelian, see what's coming up in the 7:00 hour of mornings on two. good morning. gasia. good morning dave. >> when i join you in studio here in east bay city, with an increasing number of people living on the streets, says enough is enough. next, at seven, the growing frustration in antioch. and what city leaders there are doing to help prevent more encampments from forming. also, control of mental health care in california prisons could be taken away from the state. why a judge is coming down hard on the california department of corrections and rehabilitation. we'll explain in minutes. stay with us

two of their best players, even though their contract disputes lasted longer than the team wanted. both offensive tackle trent williams and wide receiver brandon aiyuk are back at the team headquarters in santa clara. trent williams is an all-pro and a future hall of famer. he agreed to a restructured three year contract worth more than $82.5 million, including the next two seasons guaranteed.

>> i wouldn't call it a dispute, but restructure. so, it took time to make to get to where both sides feel like we've, it's a win win. >> i want to be in this position right here that i'm in right now, standing here talking to y'all. but like, i said, every day was different. negotiation. every day is different. and, just following my, my, my heart and my self. >> 49ers also restructured the contract of deebo samuel to make cap space. now the 49ers have $60 million in cap space, which they're going to need in order to resign quarterback brock purdy in the next offseason. with more than 2040 niner fans signed a petition calling for more communication after the 49ers announced some new rules for tailgating. the change.org petition says the 49ers and levi's stadium will enforce a new policy. it's called direct parking, where fans have to buy a signed tailgating passes.

longtime tailgaters say this will make it harder for them to connect with other cars in their parties. in that petition, the fans also say season ticket holders were not warned about this change. well, some new cast members are going to join tim burton's long awaited sequel, beetlejuice. beetlejuice. justin thoreau and monica bellucci shared their thoughts on working with tim burton, the legendary movie director, with filmmakers starting to use more ai. they talked about how they feel a tim burton movie is a good example of how the technology won't be able to match his creativity. >> i think when people see this film, they'll understand that i don't think they'll ever be a tim burton movie that could have been made by ai, because he is so singular in his vision. >> does beetlejuice, beetlejuice maybe goes farther with visuals? maybe it's a bit more scary.
