This is a live look from Ventura County. You can see some flames there right in the middle of the screen. The situation is likely to get worse before it gets better according to authorities. Thats because of dangerous weather conditions there right now. Low humidity combined with wind gusts reaching 80 Miles Per Hour have fueled those flames. The biggest fire is the thomas fire in Ventura County and the skirball fire is burning near multimillion dollar homes in bel air, california. Right near the ucla campus. More than 100,000 acres are scorched and containment is minimal b200,000 people have been forced to evacuate in Southern California and hundreds of homes and other buildings have been destroyed. I dont know what im going to do. Everything is burned down to the ground. One of the biggest concerns right now is the air quality. Thick clouds of smoke blanketing the area. Health officials are telling people to limit their Outdoor Activities and more than 260 public around Charter Schools in the Los Angeles Area are closed for the rest of the week. Ucla forced to cancel classes for today with just two days until the start of finals.

Residents are going without muchneeded services on day three of this strike in oakland. Now, yesterday, we saw folks out here at city hall picketing as the city council met in a closeddoor session to try to bring both sides back to the negotiating table. They couldnt reach a deal. The unions want a guaranteed 8 raise over two years. The city is offering a 4 raise over two years but in the second year workers could get up to 2 more depending on the revenue growth. The union wants guarantees and said oakland is too expensive for workers to live in the city. The mayor called the strike unlawful. I continue to be extremely disappointed that the unions have chosen to strike when we have not reached impasse. That is very unusual. It is an unfair labor practic. Reporter the unions say the strike is a protected action. We expect to see hundreds of folks out here again at city hall on the picket lines. Meanwhile, inside city hall, this afternoon, city council will meet again to try to reach a deal. And residents in oakland should know they still can call 911, First Responders are still on the job. Jessica flores, kpix 5. I bet that garbage piling up on the street is getting a little stingy. 8 raise a little stinky. Why does the city say it cant afford it . Reporter its how you do the math and project revenue. The city is saying this could lead to layoffs and a 20 million deficit. The union says thats a lie. Their numbers show that the city will have enough revenue to meet the unions demands. Anne. Thank you. The oakland as plan to build a downtown ballpark, it hit a roadblock. The team wanted a new stadium near lake merritt. The proposed site is near 880. A lot of that land is owned by the Peralta Community college district. Its home to laney college. District officials have decided to suspend talks with the as saying their focus should be on the whats best for the college and its students. And they believe that that is not a new baseball stadium. It wasnt one major factor but, rather, for us to look at ourselves and what do we want for peralta and how do we ensure that it is the business thing for us .

Kpix 5s jackie ward reports from the newsroom with how local demonstrators want lawmakers to do it. Reporter its a possible sliver of hope for dreamers. Heres the back story. After weeks of fighting the democrats to get a tax plan passed, President Trump is now trying to get their support in order to prevent a government shutdown. That is mainly because a lot of the republicans have made it clear they do not want to vote for a new spending bill tomorrow. Some democrats see this as an opportunity to protect dreamers by adding those protections to the spending bill in exchange for their votes. Republican senator Lindsey Graham has said in the past that the trump administrations move to get read of daca will be, quote, a defining moment. I think most americans want to give these dream act people a more certain life so lets do it in december. Lets do it for the good of the country.

More protests in the west bank overnight after president in the west bank overnig reporter in the newsroom, jackie ward, kpix 5. [ screaming ] more protests in the west bank overnight after President Trumps decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital. Jerusalem is israels holiest city but also home to one of islams holiest sites. The palestinians want East Jerusalem as their own capital. Vice president mike pence a Christian Conservative urged the president to make the decision but it went against the recommendations of the u. S. Secretary of state. Those who are most at risk are the palestinians. They are living under occupation. Their land continues to be stolen for settlements and now, the worlds superpower which has been saying that its attempting to broker a peace between the two groups has, you know, clearly drawn a line. I think this is an extremely, extremely dangerous decision. I think that it will undoubtedly lead to victims. They will undoubtedly be innocent people. And i would have liked to see more caution but this is not what we have come to expect from this administration. The u. N. Security council has called an emergency meeting for tomorrow to discuss this decision.

Right now, most mass transit systems use two sidebyside tunnels for underground rail service. But the vta and bart are considering a plan to use only one tunnel and stack the tracks on top of each other. Its only been done once before in barcelona and there could be issues with federal funding if the single tunnel plan moves forward. But local Business Owners say its worth it if the plan causes less disruption to the downtown area. Its going to be a mess. I mean, im afraid that they are going to close in between first and 2nd street where there will be no foot traffic at all. Reporter the bart board of directors is meeting this morning in oakland to talk about the single bore versus double bore issue.

Its just one of four major fires still growing right now. The biggest one is the thomas fire in Ventura County. Northwest of l. A. To the east, the rye fire is burning near Magic Mountain amusement park. And to the south of that, the creek fire has jumped the 210 freeway. Lets go now live to Kenneth Craig who is in Ventura County. Reporter good morning. You can see what firefighters are dealing with this morning. This fire in Ventura County is nearly double in size since yesterday morning forcing even more people out of their homes. Reporter as thousands continue to evacuate out of control wildfires in Southern California, this man was spotted frantically trying to save a bunny. After two days of massive wildfires that have burned more than 100,000 acres, residents are being told to brace for the worst. We have this santa ana wildfire threat index. Today is the first time a purple rating has shown up. Thats the most extreme rating that we have. Any spark can and will start a fire. Reporter the weather conditions predicted for today are just about the worstcase scenario. Low humidity, coupled with the fiercest winds the area has ever seen. With gusts up to 80 Miles Per Hour. Proof the fire doesnt discriminate, multimillion dollar homes in bel air are among those that have been reduced to rubble. Officials estimate 12,000 more homes throughout the region are still in harms way. I was expecting, you know, this year to see snow on that mountain and now the thing is on fire reporter the fire is still raging here in Ventura County and again it is on the move taking over entire hillsides as it makes its way towards owe high. Some residents of ventura are starting to be allowed back into their homes or whats left of them. Devastated. [ crying ] and every friend we talked to is in the same boat. Reporter the wind is expected to start dying down tomorrow, although fire Officials Say the weather will still create a critical fire condition at least into saturday. The fire here in Ventura County the one behind me is only about 5 contained at this point and nearby ojai obviously a popular tourist destination. Officials actually have some buses on standby as well as some trolleys to evacuate residents if they need to. Yeah, dire situation out there. Kenneth, what are officials suggesting for people who have already been forced to leave their homes . Reporter yeah. As you know, upwards of 200,000 people have been evacuated. Officials are telling them, if you have to go, make sure you lock your doors, turn off the airconditioning and gas. If you have curtains on the windows, they are asking residents to pull those down as well as push the furniture to the middle of the room so it doesnt catch on fire and then you need to plan multiple evacuation routes to safely get out of your neighborhood or out of your community. Obviously, a very, very serious situation here today. Kenneth craig for us live in Ventura County. Kenneth, thank you. Neda iranpour has been watching the weather conditions down there, very closely. It looks like its only getting more dangerous. Yeah. It was bad when the fires all first started. But today is actually the worst day. So its the peak fire danger out there which means high winds and very dry humidity levels, even dry at this hour. So the afternoon, humidity levels drop a lot. Thomas fire 12 humidity there. The latest gusts up to 44 Miles Per Hour. This fire as they were saying is moving towards the ojai area. Just checked near ventura and theres these southeast winds that are pushing it north. We were initially getting a lot of east winds and thats still what theyre dealing with right now. The rye fire humidity levels at 13 . Creek fire gusts to 57. Humidity at 15. Skirball fire the one near bel air 37mileperhour wind gusts. Heres the water vapor. This is all dry air. Dry air from nevada got pushed down into california, and two dry air masses merged. You can see no moisture in sight for all of the state of california including arizona as well, the Desert Southwest just feels extremely dry. Red flag warnings in effect now extended until 8 00 saturday. Initially it was going to end on friday but these conditions are going to continue through the weekend. Extreme fire behavior, some of those wind gusts in the hills could be up to 80 Miles Per Hour today. This High Pressure ridge is going to stay right above california all the way through the weekend even beyond that. So those santa ana winds will continue. What this means for our temperatures, ill let you know here coming up in just a little bit. Thank you, neda. So hard to watch. Im from ventura and ojai. So, um, yes, my thoughts go out to all of them down there. Right now, we are tracking some slow speeds, metering lights over at the bay bridge toll plaza, theyre on and that backup is definitely starting to grow. So give yourself some extra time this morning. Its going to be a slow ride heading into San Francisco out of oakland. 16 minutes now just from the maze into the city and if you can see the backup is starting to stretch beyond the macarthur maze. This is right where 580 and interstate 80 come together. And your ride along the eastshore freeway starting to show some slowdowns as you approach powell. 580 and highway 4 out of antioch, those are both in the yellow now. Thats a check of your traffic. Still no deal in oakland this morning. City workers set to strike for the third day in a row. Kpix 5s Jessica Flores live outside city hall with the toll its taking on the city and no end in sight. Jessica. Reporter anne, thats right. City workers at a standstill. What this means . Theres no services or facilities open across the city. 400 head start preschoolers dont have daycare today. Street sweeping isnt happening. The trash is piling up across the city. Residents are going without muchneeded services on day 3 of the strike. Now, yesterday we saw hundreds of people picketing outside city hall. Inside city hall, the council was trying to bring both sides to the bargaining table. That didnt happen. They couldnt reach a deal. The main Sticking Point is wages. The unions want a guaranteed 8 raise over two years. The city is offering a 4 raise in the first year, and up to 2 more on the second year depending on revenue growth. The city says a higher rate could lead to layoffs. The union says that doesnt add up and says the city will have the money. The union says their workers are overworked, under paid, compared to nearby cities. Some of them now are, you know, kind of homeless. They are living with friends or family. Its real. We dont want to strike but at some point you have to make a stand. Reporter now, mayor libby schaaf says the strike is unlawful because the two sides havent officially declared an impasse. The Union Representing the 3,000 nonemergency workers say the strike is a protected action. Now, today we expect to see hundreds of more Union Workers out here in front of city hall picketing again. First responders, firefighters and Police Officers will still be on the job. Reporting live in oakland, im Jessica Flores, kpix 5. Looks like the city is rejecting the unions latest proposal. So whats the citys next step . Reporter well, again, city council meet again to try to bring these two sides, City Administration and the union, back to the bargaining table. That will happen this afternoon. If they can reach a deal, the strike will be called off. But thats a big if. It is. Jessica flores live for us in oakland, thank you. Net neutrality supporters are going to hold protests at Verizon Stores today. They are showing their opposition to the fccs plans to roll back Net Neutrality regulations. Kpix 5s jackie ward live in the newsroom with details. Reporter those against Net Neutrality say they are trying to prevent major internet providers from censoring content, slowing down or speeding up specific websites and potentially undermining freedom of speech. It was enacted by president obama two years ago mandating that all traffic on the internet should be treated the same. So if Net Neutrality goes away, Companies Like comcast could choose to prioritize their content over their competitors. The legal director for the Electronics Frontier foundation says rolling back Net Neutrality would generate massive profits for the broadband companies. For larger Companies Like google and netflix, they can afford to pay these extra fees. They can afford to pay to get into the fast lane. But smaller startups, small companies, nonprofits, libraries, governments, they cant afford this reporter a couple weeks ago the fcc chairman released his plans to get rid of it. He said under my proposal the government would stop micro managing the internet, instead the fcc would simply require Internet Service providers to be transparent about their practices. The fcc is expected to vote on Net Neutrality on december 14th. Now, if you would like to voice your opinion on this issue, a rally will be held at the Verizon Store in walnut creek at 5 00 tonight and at the Verizon Store in palo alto at 4 30. In the newsroom, jackie ward, kpix 5. So the theory behind the changes is we could trust the big providers to police themselves . But were hearing otherwise. Reporter the woman we just heard speaking has a theory of what will happen if Net Neutrality goes away. She thinks those companies will keep the speeds they have now but then create these socalled fast lanes for their own content and, of course, the consumer would have to pay for that fast lane access. Thank you. This years equifax data breach should put Holiday Shoppers on notice. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger joins us now to help you protect yourself digitally and in brick and Mortar Stores this shopping season. So all right, jill, lets start with Online Shopping tips. Reporter i know you all know this but we really want to emphasize, please, just conduct business with websites with a padlock symbol or secure sites. Confine your shopping to those sites that take a credit card or paypal, those will often give you better buyer protection in case theres a dispute. With mobile devices, you know the deal. Use the direct web access through your 4g connection, safer than an unsecured public wifi. If you keep the credit card information with your favorite retailers, its a friendly reminder, be sure that that password is strong 7 characters, combination of letters, numbers, symbols and upper case characters. If you dont want to remember that one, then just use one of those great password management apps, that will help you out. That definitely should. So, jill, what about instore tips and recordkeeping in general . Reporter i think a lot of people after these data breaches think maybe the best safest choice is cash at the checkout. But you know what . It really is not worth carrying around wads of dough. So for convenience, credit cards are the best option. Thats because they provide protection against stolen, damaged or lost items and perhaps more importantly your liability is minimized in the case of an identity theft. You compare that with a debit card where a thief could drain your bank account before you notice and then you have to deal with the bank to get money back. Of course, keep good records. You know, the product description, price, receipt, terms of the sale. Copies of email exchanges if you are buying stuff online maybe through ebay. And then best practices, review that credit card statement as soon as you receive it. Make sure there are no unauthorized charges. If there is a discrepancy, call your bank quickly report it. And if you think your information has been compromised, or that you have been a victim of identity theft, please go to ftc complaint assistance. Gov. Checking those credit card statements and then making that phone call not the favorite thing to do for a lot of people but you got to do it. You have to be vigilant. Absolutely. Thank you, Jill Schlesinger. It is 5 43. One Northern California woman is going all out to get in the spirit of the season with hundreds, yeah, hundreds of unique nativity scenes. Reporter and the bart board says they need another three months to decide how best to extend service into downtown san jose. Well explain the debate over the almost 5 billion plan coming up. Serve passengers, starting next year. But its the next phase of the the bart extension to san joses berryessa area is expected to serve passengers starting next year. But its the next phase of the Silicon Valley extension that could be more complicated. At issue a tunnel downtown underneath santa clara street. Kpix 5s Katie Nielsen joins us live from downtown to explain why construction could be disrupted in that area. Katie. Reporter yeah, kenny. Bart says it needs another three months to try to decide how to build those tunnels under santa clara street right here through the middle of downtown. Traditionally, there are two bores for the trains where tracks run side to side. But the vta proposes just one bore and stacking the tracks on top of each other. Supporters. Single tunnel plan say it would cause less disruption downtown during construction. The twin be easier less uphill battle trying to get into the federal funding pipeline. We are going to build the system once for the next century. And that means if we need to take more time to do it we should do it. Reporter barcelona is the only other city in the world using a single tunnel for the mass transit train. The extension from the berryessa station is budgeted to cost almost 5 billion. And bart Board Members are actually going to be talking about this issue, the single tunnel having double tunnel issue, at its Board Meeting this morning. Katie nielsen, kpix 5. A california woman opened up her home to show off her collection of nativity scenes. Check it out. This modesto home set up like a museum so hundreds of people can see this huge collection. 800 nativity scenes. She started the collection 56 years ago. The scenes include cowboys, pets and characters from the peanuts comics. But she says her favorite is the one featuring her children and grandchildren. I have been to that house, have you . Yes. When i worked at cbs in sacramento, yes, we went to her house and its not the biggest house but every inch you look is covered in nativity scenes. What motivates her . She loves them. She collects them. Everyone once now that she like them, they get them for her as gifts so for years people giving her nativity scenes. But one more question. Does she put them away when its not the Holiday Season . Yes. She packs them into safe boxes and wraps them up. Thats a lot of work. I was thinking like, wow, packing up my stuff, not much. She has a lot of packing to do. Some people like to have a hobby, you know. On the roads, we have a Traffic Alert in effect. Highway 84 is shut down in both directions due to an accident. Thats between con canyon boulevard and vineyard. If you head to livermore on highway 84 you will need to use an alternate. We are tracking a crash at santa rita road keeping your ride slow if you are trying to make your way over towards 680. Southbound 680 starting to get slow, as well. We are seeing a lot of yellow. Heres a live look at the Richmond San Rafael bridge. Headlights moving westbound still looking good if you are heading over to 101. We have Clear Conditions out there. We can see sparkling rights looking up to the stars this morning. Clear conditions come in some area. Inland temperatures to the 70s so it could be records by the time we get to the weekend, even warmer. Santa rosa 33 degrees. San jose 40. San francisco not bad at 52. Sunrise at 7 12 a. M. Thats of course when the coolest time of your day will be. 13 Miles Per Hour sustained dowown San Francisco east winds coming in at 8 Miles Per Hour. So its the east winds that are going to pick up and thats why places like Berkeley Hills could see some strong wind gusts. Southwest marin county near Stinson Beach with hefty gusts and Half Moon Bay as well right along the coastline there. We have High Pressure the story for the past few days and it will continue to be the story for actually several, several days. This ridge is not moving. Its staying put. And thats why our temperatures look like this. 70 degrees for that high expected today in sunnyvale. Above average for this time of year. Temperatures are about 10 to 15 degrees above average for your highs today. Its really only going to get warmer by the time we get to sunday. 67 expected in berkeley.
