Bay this afternoon. Mid 60s along the coast. Were starting off the day because of that onshore flow, that better air quality as well as foggy conditions and even some patchy drizzle along the coast ride around the bay this morning. Well talk about a little bit of a change for tomorrow. Details on that coming up. Lets check in with gianna for a look at traffic and the latest on the slow ride on altamont pass. Supercommuters out of tracy getting on to 580 and as you work towards that north flynn exit. Thats the bulk of the delays this morning. As you head along into the altamont pass, 38 minute drive time westbound 580, 205 over to et good ough in both directiore just a little busy south of there on 680 through the sunol grade. We are monitoring these brake lights along the nimitz freeway. South 880 still struggle this morning. Slow from 92 all the way down to fremont boulevard to clear an accident right at that exit. Developing in oakland, cleanup is underway this morning after protests against the Police Shooting of jacob blake in wisconsin took a turn last night. Agitators smashed windows and set several fires. Kpix 5s kiet do is live there in oakland now surveying the damage and kiet, lots of clean up there. Reporter absolutely. You know, this is the scene out here at the whole foods near lake merritt. This is just off of harrison. Looks like the crews are almost done installing plywood over these windows that were smashed out. Pretty much the entire store front is smashed out and you can see here looks like they used some kind of tool to strike it like some kind of sharp blunt object and it smashed through both plate glass windows here. And lots of glass both inside and out. So these contractors, looks like theyre mostly done at this point after working through the night. So this all started around 8 00 p. M. Last night. Several dozen people gathered at Frank Ogawa Plaza in solidarity with the protesters in wisconsin over the shooting of blake. This group then grew to about 600, 700 people and began marching northward. They briefly got into a skirmish with officers at police headquarters. Some of them were carrying tool began hicl street that we can find. And then lake shore and r courthouse on fallon, protesters stripped the plywood off the front glass door and then started a small fire inside the building. Oakland Fire Department came quickly and then put it out. We spoke with a man by the name of Martin Harris. Hes an employee who works here at the whole foods where were at right now. He showed up for work and he cannot get started. Very conflicted because i work here. And im actually you know, i work for amazon through whole foods. But im friends with whole foods workers and amazon workers. Ive been here for like two and a half years. And a lot of us need our jobs. But at the same time, im black as you can see. Reporter all right, so back out here live. Doesnt look like there was too much looting although the Security Officer did tell us that some folks ran inside and then grabbed a couple of drinks and a couple of beers as well. No officers were injured but there were several arrests. Were live in oakland, kiet do, kpix 5. Professional athletes also took a stand against racial injustice. All three nba playoff games scheduled yesterday were postponed. So far, League Owners appear to be supporting the historic move. The movement started first by the Milwaukee Bucks and then spread quickly throughout professional sports leagues from the wnba and mlb and mls. But its not the first time weve seen athletes use the National Stage to bring awareness to racial injustice. This month, four years ago, former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began his peaceful protest by taking a knee during the national anthem. The pathway that Colin Kaepernick, in my mind, he created, is that we dont have to revisit the motives as much as we did before. Now were starting to see the social consciousness and the social advocacy take over and take precedent over financial gain. The postponed nba games will be rescheduled. No word yet on the new dates. And stay with us, coming up in our next half hour, kpix 5s sports director Dennis Odonnell breaks down how our bay area teams are responding. Im anne makovec at the live news desk.

I mean its a gorgeous day here in galveston and i late to say that when we have so much going on just about 150 miles east of here in cameron. But here in galveston, very minimal effects from this storm. We have some rain and some wind. But again, the sun is out and skies are blue and a Beautiful Day on the beach. What were hearing right now from southwestern louisiana is that the sun is coming up and theyre starting to begin the rescue efforts. Lots of damage because of those intense winds and 150mileper hour winds and windows blown out in the downtown area, roofs off home and businesses. A lot of damage there. Whats not coming out yet is any sort of necessary rescue like to get out of their homes and police are not able to get everywhere right now because of the storm surge that came in. But that was one big concern the loss of life but we have not heard about that just yet. But the time right now is to assess the damage and crews are coming in to see what is needed where. And anne, then well go from there as far as any sort of rescue or recovery efforts. All right, so now a Tropical Storm or about to be a Tropical Storm. Now moving inland. What are the concerns were going to see as laura moves from state to state here . Reporter right, well, of course its still a hurricane. Expected to be a Tropical Storm. Then its going to move its way northeast and then potentially back out into the atlantic. So because of that storm surge, there was a prediction of about 20 feet. Dont think it did that thank goodness. But still, penetration of 40 miles inland and so thats not just the coastal communities. Thats homes 40 miles in. And then it just continues to dump rain, flash flooding potential, in all the way up to arkansas. Is where the path is going to go. So theres so much more potential for more so far. All right, we will continue to follow laura as chemos inland but glad you are safe, thanks for that. Len . Reporter thank you. Anne and courtney, thank you. Now to the fire watch. The new satellite image from nasa shows smoke from California Wildfires spreading all over most of the state. And even across the country. Those orange dots show where fires are burning right now.

As you make that commute out of the east bay over into the city. And i was looking at the sensors. Brake lights as well across the upper deck of the bay bridge. So pretty slow as you work your way into San Francisco this morning. Via oakland and emeryville area, backed up just beyond the 880 overpass. Elsewhere brake lights still the effect. This accident has been there southbound 880 near fremont boulevard. Tow crews are on scene and you know its a noninjury accident. But its shower taking a long time to clear this one out of the happies. Backed up to 92 at this point. Very slow conditions as you head there. 84. Thats now cleared. Eastbound 4 right at willow pass road. This is the noncommute direction and we typically dont see brake lights building on highway 4 westbound through bay point until after 7 00. So moving, e most part, just a headsup. Though theres that ongoing road work connecting highway 4 every to 680 and 242 and still pretty busy in the altamont pass, 205 ovc the north bay. Still a lot of road closures that remain in effect. For example, 128 between rye canyon and the napa county line.

Especially where those wildfires are burning.

So that should help firefighters as they are getting a better handle on the fires. Right to the lnu lightning complex fires and temperatures to about 50s to 60 degrees and high relative humidity values and just a light wind this morning. Now lets show you what you can expect and this is for the walbridge fire burning at least to the west of healdsburg and the same story. So we are looking at higher relative humidity values and those cooler temperatures. Looking at 96 relative humidity and west southwest winds at just 2 Miles Per Hour.

That foggy start and catching the drizzle as well along the coast and right around bay with the strong ocean breeze kicking in for us. Our temperatures in the 50s to about 60 degrees.

Looking at good to moderate air quality for redwood city and down through san jose and the peninsula. The south bay. Also for the east bay. The trivalley looking good for concord and walnut creek and danville. For the east bay, around the bay, San Francisco to oakland. Good air quality there.
