Better air than weve had Kelly Cobiella, nbc news, settling in the valleys. When we look at San Francisco, london. Not once, not twice, but for what weve seen helping to clear a third time the state senate the air is actually fog returning and its bringing in has been shut down due to more of a westerly wind. Covid19. A Senate System was abruptly especially once this fog clears out, we could see that fog and halted when brian jones from san smoke settling back in for a diego county learned he tested couple of hours during the positive for the virus. Afternoon. The shutdown came right before as of now weve seen improvement the senate was supposed to vote in our air quality, a lot of on several Police Reform bills. Green here indicating the air now its leaving lawmakers quality is good. Then as you head toward scrambling to pass those bills fairfield, its looking a little before the monday deadline.

So as we go in from the next jones up more than 250 points. Into the next couple of days, coming up for you, the nba well see much of our air says that it is ready to return quality improving. So thats the reason why the after postponing yesterdays spare the air alert is extended game and kari has a look at that until tomorrow because we are looking at for many of our complete forecast coming up for you next. Microclimates better air quality for saturday, sunday, as well as monday. Weve seen that improving along our bay area beaches. As we look at wind speeds, once again, 5 to 8 miles per hour. Not really strong here. As we go into today we will see that fog away from the coastline and temperatures for the inland areas reaching into the mid80s. We will see a few spots in the upper 80s today. We go through 5 00 in the afternoon and were going to see those temperatures at about 80 degrees in san jose and cooling down nicely for later this evenin evening. If you want to take a walk in yothe case even into the weeken. In an unprecedented play. The nba paused playoff last night and others have taken acas well.

Its amazing why we keep loving this country, and this country does not love us back. Well, it is worth noting exactly four years ago yesterday Colin Kaepernick began his protest on the sidelines against police brutality. Giants decided not to play last night but we learned they will play this afternoon at 1 00. Now its time to get a look at that forecast. So kari, how are things going to be looking there as far as air quality for us . Weve seen some improvement. Its been so nice to at least at times see a blue sky as we get a live look outside in San Francisco. We started out with some very dense and low fog this morning. Were now starting to see that lift just a bit. Now were left with a cloudy sky and will clear for a little while during the afternoon and usher in a breezy westerly wind. Were already clear in dublin as we take a live look. It was cloudy here earlier this morning, and weve seen hazy conditions. But the air quality is not as unhealthy as it was. Were also seeing some slightly cooler temperatures. So as we look at where we are right now, San Francisco is at 64 degrees. Were right now at 67 in livermore and san jose, 63 degrees. We compare that to 24 hours ago, in some spots were as cool as 8 degrees lower than yesterday at this time. So were seeing it really settling in for today. As we look at our air quality for the next several days, i know were all trying to make plans for the weekend. Well, the bay and the coastal areas will have some improved air quality. Were also looking at yellow sensors, which means if you have breathing problems it may irritate you. For the most part the general population is not going to see many impacts. When we say the air quality is improving, if you can sense it eutside, if y that smoke, it is safe to go out there. Also, its not residual in terms of how long it lingers in the air and impacts you. Its something well be watching, of course, as were seeing much improved air quality as we get more containment and better wildfire fighting conditions. Looking at our temperatures for the rest of the afternoon in dublin, were only making it to the mid80s for today with our temperature 5 00 at 84 degrees, that will be the warmest time of the day. Some spots in the low nipsey. Only a couple of areas like antioch will reach 90, clearlake and ukiah mid90s while palo alto will reach into the upper 70s today and san jose up to 80 degrees, which is slightly lower than normal. As we look at whats happening across the region, still no change. This large area of High Pressure parked across the Desert Southwest and also creating some record high temperatures. But for us its kind of moved away for a little bit to allow that coastal fog to develop and that we were wind is bringing in our natural air conditioning. As we look at our temperatures over the next several days, expect highs in the low 90s today but there will be a slight increase in temperatures tomorrow and still think that the air quality will be unhealthy at times especially the afternoon hours seeing the smoke settle in. For the weekend highs in the low 90s. If youre in San Francisco or along the coast line, expect highs in the 60s and that fog will linger for quite a while. Weve seep it for the past couple of days and looks like the fog will continue into the weekend. Marcus. Coming up for you, have you heard a hum around the Golden Gate Bridge . Its part of a new song. Ill break it down when we come back. New at 11 00 for you, a new song is playing throughout San Francisco this summer and the mysterious sound seeping through the fog is leaving some bay area residents confused. To some it sounds like a hmm, to others it sounds like a whistle. Well, nbcs jackie ward may have solved the mystery for you. Since early june a ghostly sound has drifted across San Francisco. Social media lit up with a range of reactions calling it soothing, unsettling, even ie its not supernatural. Landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge. The big factor designing a bridge is wind. This, the golden gate is a big cut in the landscape that acts as a wind tunnel. That means the whole design of the bridge turns into one big sale when the wind is strong enough. These, the 1937 struts of the railing catch the wind. Its the new thinner version of those struts that are creating that noise. When you ask engineers why wind matters on a bridge, they always name the same one, the tacoma narrows bridge. The bridge whips about like a fluttering ribbon. With gusts at 40 miles an hour it began to twist, concrete buckled and collapsed. Literally shook itself to pieces. Then consensus was the solid side rails are responsible. Engineers everywhere were haunted by it. Ensure that type of effect or phenomenon doesnt happen here at the Golden Gate Bridge. The important thing is that scale model tests of earthquakes and high winds show the bridge will be stronger than ever, but those tests didnt reveal the eerie sound it would make. Engineers are working on a plan to quiet the hum. In the meantime the reminder of the high stakes and complicated works of building and maintaining roadway high above the waves. Nbc news, San Francisco. A live look at the Golden Gate Bridge right now. You know the iconic bridge has with stood a lot of elements and a long list of renovations since it was completed in 1937. And the latest sound effect from the new railings also happens when the wind hits the bridge at a certain angle and velocity. The new railings can withstand winds up to 100 miles an hour. Even though folks living with a view of the bridge may not feel so lucky as they used to, the improvements are part of an important safety upgrade. Kind of sounds cool but i dont know if i want to hear it all the time. Well have another look at the surrounding wildfires burning in the bay area and whats happening with your weather.
