We did see a lot of people or some people out and about yesterday. Some of them just saying they had to get out and they had cabin fever. You try to keep moving the best you can. Try to get as much fresh air, you know, as you can. It has been heartbreaking. I hope that it clears up really soon and we get blue skies and we can start breathing again.

That includes just off the uc Berkeley Campus where fraternities and sororities have had large gatherings with few masks in sight. Right now the penalties is a misdemeanor. We dont want people to be criminalized. But we want compliance. This is a last resort. This is not, were not just going to go around and start finding people. Our goal is to try to encourage our community to really be good neighbors. Other bay area counties have all passed similar mandates.

President trump is back on the campaign trail today following his visit to california. Yesterday he met with the governor and got into a Climate Change clash with the state oficial. It will start getting cooler. You just watch. I wish science agreed you. I dont think science knows, actually. The president was in sacramento for a wildfire briefing yesterday. He blamed our wildfires on the lack of Forest Management. The president also disagreed with californias secretary for Natural Resources about Climate Change. This doesnt have to be a partisan issue. Science, again, tells us that this Climate Change is driving this catastrophic fire experience that were having this summer. And the governor said the meeting was an opportunity to remind the president that more than half of our forest land in this state is under federal jurisdiction. Governor newsom got a chance to tour an Animal Rescue in butte county. This was yesterday afternoon. He said the state has to focus on prevention, Forest Management and Climate Change in its effort to prevent massive wildfires. Abc7 news spoke with two climate experts who have different approaches to Forest Management. Some are in favor of prescribed burns and other believe fire preventive Safety Measures are key. One thing they agree on. Homeowners can take actionable steps to fireproof their homes. With screens over vents to prevent embers from coming in. We could replace every roof in Rural America with a metal roof that sheds the embers. That alone would protect that home over 90 probability of surviving a fire. People can also clear vegetation near their home to protect it from wildfire. If you want to keep track of all the fires burning in the state right now, you can use abcp exclusive wildfire tracker right on abc7news. Com and on the a abc7 news app. A live desk update.

Tonight the Walnut Creek City Council will address the steps of training and improved Police Response after the deadly involved shooting of a mentally ill man. Police body camera recorded this june 2019 shooting of 23yearold miles hall. His mother and grandmother called for help after they claimed he threatened him. Officers shot hall who was armed with a metal bar. Walnut creek has since made it a goal to expand training so that officers are better equipped to handle Mental Health emergencies. This week as we work to build a better bay area, were focusing on race and social justice. A huge part of that is policing and Police Reform. The Police Killing of george floyd sparked many people to ask what can be done so this doesnt happen again. Now, california lawmakers are discussing some policies that could lead to change. Since the Police Killing of george floyd, several states across the country have passed or introduced bills that relate to Police Reform and regulating use of force. In california, more than a dozen bills related to policing were introduced this summer. Only a handful passed the legislature, including one that bans the chokehold. The California Department of justice will investigate Police Killings and enshrines reporters rights in covering protests. One bill that failed to come up for a vote was sb 731. A bill that would have made it possible to strip officers of badges conducted of certain crimes or misconduct. Its known as desertification and california is only one of t in order to see real change. We can ban chokeholds and define the grounds of what police can and cannot do at protests but what needs to happen in the state of california and were behind the times is we need to get all of these dirty officers off of the streets. James birch with the antipolice terror project supported the bill. Brian marvel, president of the Peace Officers Research Association of california was against it. But not entirely. He says it is in favor of a decertification but who gets to monitor the licensing. One of the things that were really looking for in the Police Licensing piece is something that is fair and provides due process rights, which i think anybody who has a professional license would want the exact same thing. Reporter the hope is to find Common Ground and there is another policy that could do that. Ab 2054. A bill that provides a Crisis Response without the use of law enforcement. Reporter both birch and marvel agree finding alternatives to police is one good solution. When somebody calls 911 there is that expectation that a Police Officer will come and fix the problem and that may not necessarily be the case in all circumstances. We have been advocating that there needs to be changes for many years. Good to see some Common Ground there. Abc7 will have more stories like this one all week focused on race and social justice as we work to build a better bay area. This afternoon were covering latino heritage month and how its changing under covid19. Other stories will range from the struggles of minority Business Owners to our perceptions of each other.

Kgo roof camera back there at the studio looking south towards the embarcadero towards the Ferry Building and bay bridge, which we can see thankfully. Spare the air through thursday and our afternoons brighter and warmer as the upper level winds are clearing out that smoke and still sitting right where we breathe and then we have drizzle possible and cooler temperatures thursday and friday. And that should translate into some of our cleaner afternoons. Heres the area of low pressure bringing much needed and unfortunate very light showers to just select cities along the Pacific Northwest and not really doing much of a dent for their fires and is bringing hopefully slightly cleaner air because they had worst air qualthy than we had the last couple days. The low to the south is one im watching for us the next couple days. Until then mid 70s to 80 down in the south bay and los gatos and gilroy. And we head up the peninsula 77 in redwood city and mid 60s along the coast today. Look at that 70 in downtown and 72 in South San Francisco and 74 in sausalito. Low to mid 80s through most of the north bay valleys with mid 60s along your coast and low to mid 70s along the east bay shore. Mid 80s to a 90 out in brentwood. Tonight is milder and not quite as cool as this morning, thanks to those southwesterly winds drawing in temperatures in the upper 50s to mid 60s tomorrow morning. All right. Tomorrow afternoon, could be just as warm, if not slightly warmer than today. You could see the dropoff thursday and friday as that low nears and brings us a chance of drizzle both mornings and then a slight off shore breeze this weekend and another warming trend and another chance of smoke.

Expect the need of sunglasses also as it will be brighter. Reggie . Mike, thanks. Because of the spare the air days the poor air quality is starting to take a toll on kids. Some Nursery Schools and day cares have had to close because of it. Doctors say the air is safest at home with air filters and the windows closed. Return to school might be best once the air quality is enhanced and that fires are a bit more well controlled. Children are a little bit closer to the ground and breathe faster and may be affected more severely than adults. So, keep a close eye on the number. If its above 100, the air quality index, then doctors say you need to really be careful about taking your kids outside. Parents should keep kids with asthma on their medication and call the doctor if increased coughing, breathing rates, leth lethragy or irritabilitrritabil.
