We are at the West Portal Elementary School school one of three in San Francisco that came back with high test results for lead in the water. The others are malcolm x and San Francisco International High school. They got their water tested and their results are bad because they have too much lead in them. The chronicle reports that the parents of these schools were told earlier this week and that water samples from at least one faucet or fountain in each school had too much lead. So as a result the taps were shut down immediately. The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Says the water is safe and the lead is coming from plumbing fixtures. So the superintendent told the chronicle, quote, were telling people or letting people know as much information as quickly as possible. So just a couple of months ago, mcclymonds in oakland ran into lead problems themselves. The toxic metal was coming from the faucets in the cafeteria. The water fountain by the football as well and the showerheads in the girls and boys locker rooms, which were quickly shut down. Temporarily, water filters have been installed and water dispensers are now scattered around the school. The longer term exclusion to replacing the entire schools piping system could take longer than a year and possibly cost up to 2. 5 million. San francisco waters website says in many cases lead problems primarily comes from those faucets or lead pipes that werent removed although a lot of them were removed in the 1980s. In San Francisco, jackie ward, kpix 5. Fare evaders could soon be out of luck and money if bart goes through with a plan to crack down on cheats.

Its no longer blocking lanes but traffic is backed up beyond highway 4 in hercules. So its a slow ride to the toll plaza. 27 minutes into San Francisco. Thats all due to an accident were tracking on the skyway. So right at that fremont exit, westbound 80, looks like a couple of cars involved. This is right as you approach Treasure Island there. 27 minutes. You can see these emergency crews are on the scene so do expect delays heading into San Francisco. Hats a check of your traffic; over to you. Okay. Heres what you can expect in the forecast. We are going to see those hot conditions returning again. That offshore wind is back. Sunrise at 7 29. Sunset 6 17. So in san jose you broke a record yesterday and this morning, temperatures are in the 60s and they will stay that way of course until the sun comes up and then things will warm up a lot. 90 degrees for san jose again. So if you reach that number, thats another recordbreaking day. That would be three in a row. Winds 5 to 10 Miles Per Hour expected this afternoon. So its those east winds. Heres a look at your date planner. Around the beaches, temperatures are cooler than yesterday. In the upper 70s, still above average. Sunny and dry around the bay. Calm winds at the moment about 3 to 4 miles an hour but the direction is back,continuing to see the offshore flow. We really dont need that Coastal Cooling and it will arrive, that onshore flow will be back, but because of this change in the direction, the offshore flow, our temperatures 80s, 90s inland. So a repeat of the heat again. Closer look at your neighborhoods temperatures also in the low 90s further north you go the low on the weekend will work its way toward california bringing us the Coastal Cooling and in eight to 10 days we are expecting to see a storm system work its way to our area.

Thats right. Two schools in the north bay are working to make a better world. They are doing it through acts of kindness. This week we have two school schools. Reporter snack time at basis Elementary School may be the perfect time to see students helping each other. If someone is hurt, i ask if they are okay or if someone is on the buddy bench, i ask them to play. Reporter a pillar in the middle of campus reminds students how to treat others. Its a part of the Kentfield School districts commitment to teaching kindness. We all believe if we teach our children to act kindly as children, it will be practiced as adults. Reporter so the districts two schools, challenge themselves to perform 10,000 acts of kindness in 15 days. Mostly like helping my mom out with cooking dinner for the family and, like, doing extra chores and helping out around school to pick up trash. Reporter every act was written down on a paper link and added to a kindness chain. At the end of two weeks, the students from both schools a mile apart met in the middle and connected the two campuses. I think that it showed them how powerful when people come together in kindness, what that can look like and how it can feel. I thought it was really cool because two schools walking together, um, and putting your things together is inspiring. Reporter and that inspiration is a step to building a better world. Anything can help Somebody Just have a better day from having a bad one and then just giving somebody a smile can really make their day. Kindness is like a ripple.

Whitefish energy is just two years old and has ties to the Trump Administration. Some lawmakers are eager to know how whitefish got the job.

Whitefish says the main reason it won the deal is because it was willing to accept less upfront money than other companies under consideration. Usually you want to get high scores when it comes to school but not when it comes to lead in the water. Three schools in San Francisco are testing very high for lead levels. Well tell you which ones.

Reporter michelle, the chronicle is reporting this morning that the crisis in flint, michigan is at least part of the reason why state officials in california have wanted more testing to be done, especially in schools. And the test results for at least three San Francisco schools are in. The west portal elementary, malcolm x elementary and San Francisco International High school all had their test results come back high for lead. The chronicle reports that parents of these three schools were told earlier this week that water samples from at least one faucet or fountain at each school had too much lead in them. The taps were immediately shut down. The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Says the water flowing into the school is safe and that the lead is most likely coming from the plumbing fixtures and pipes. The chronicle says these three schools are on a growing list of schools all over the state that are also seeing high levels of lead. The superintendent told the chronicle we are letting people know as much information as quickly as possible. Just a couple of months ago Mcclymonds High School in oakland had lead problems. The toxic metal was coming from the faucets in the cafeteria, the water fountain at the football field and the showerheads in the locker rooms. They were quickly shut down. Temporarily water filters have been installed and water dispensers are now scattered around the school. The longer Term Solution here is to replace the entire schools piping system but that could take longer than a year and possibly cost up to 2. 5 million. So we dont know what San Francisco usds solution for this school and the other schools in San Francisco are but we hope to learn later on. In San Francisco, jackie ward, kpix 5.

But we are going to see still that hot air because of the direction of the winds. So its not the extreme winds. Our futurecast showing probably 4 to 5mileperhour breezes today but thats about it. But again its all about the direction and we are going to get that shift to rise though. Humidity levels are going to be around 50, 70 here this morning. But dropping off a little bit later on today seeing them in the probably 40 to 50 range because the winds arent so strong. High temperatures 70s to 90s. Above average temperatures up to 19 degrees above average for some areas. Now, were watching this low as it makes its way towards california. Thats going to help drop our temperatures down. This is by saturday and sunday. And then heres another low. Out there in the pacific, once that works its way towards california, thats when we may see that chance of rain. But its not for a while. 8 to 10 days out. So we still have a while. But for your halloween at least, conditions will be clear skies and cool out there. 60s and 70s expected once we get through the weekend. So even the inland areas will be cooling off significantly next week. Kenny. Barts introduction of new cars for its trains will be a gradual process.
