Primary president ial debate, but the frontrunner stays away from the stage. A lot of those conventions have ceased to exist. Struggling to get back in business. San joses Tourism Industry still feeling the effects of the pandemic. [ speaking in a global language ] an ancient language finding a new home in oakland. As we continue our celebration of hispanic heritage month. Mixed reality allows you to bring digital objects into the physical world. Mark zuckerberg hoping to jumpstart the meta verse, taking Artificial Intelligence to another level. Plus, did you end up getting your Powerball Ticket . If you didnt, dont worry, you will have another shot to become an instant millionaire. Okay, so we all have another shot at powerball. Im Gianna Franco and you know i play every week and i say it every day. Its the best therapy i have. It doesnt last very long but it allows me to stay in bed and say what if right . Its that hope and that chance. Sometimes i listen for rain on my window when we lay in bed. We had some sprinkles the beginning of this week but were looking to the weekend with the great festivals coming into town. For saturday the new york city tricky because theres a small chance of rain. On saturday. And its been, you know, this was the fly in the ointment yesterday. We were talking about this 10 chance of rain for saturday. All day yesterday. Now thats at 30 chance. Still not a lot but its its slightly higher likelihood and im going to show you more on that coming up in the complete forecast in just a bit. Lets get you ready for thursday first. Thats a view looking across the entire Santa Clara Valley, thats a live lieu from the mountains on the west side of it. Heres the virtual set down here and put current numbers up. Marine layer is not a factor for us right now. Its not really filling in much of the bay at all right now. Mid 50s in the south bay and the trivalley. The one place where we see temperatures that are in the in the 50s would be the north bay. And even at that, its limited bud were seeing some numbers there in the 40s. Take a look at that petaluma number where were looking at temperatures at 48 degrees. Usually cooler in the mornings in the north bay so lets do a comparison. Were going to get rid of the currents and im going to bring in the daytime highs and heres the theme with today. Just as sunny and just as warm as yesterday. So you might be in the upper 40s now in the north bay, but you are warming up into the low and mid 80s and lets look at everybody else. Well take a look at the bay as a whole. And theres a theme. You will be low 70s in the bay. But look at the numbers inland. You are going back up to the mid 80s today. Concord you will be there. And antioch you will probably be right around 80. And ill show you everybody elses numbers coming up in the complete first alert forecast in bit. Also get into detail on the chance of rain. For now gianna, hows the drive . A little bit busy out there. Darren. Good morning to the commuters going across the san mateo bridge or getting ready to take 880. So far we are still doing okay if you are headed over to 101 westbound. Not too bad. Only 15 minutes between the nimitz and 101. Getting first reports of a possible Traffic Alert on the dunbarton commute. Might be countercommute. Ill will keep an eye on 84. Reed . Thank you so much. Good morning to our friends in the east bay. So lets talk about fire season. And the work by First Responders to keep you safe. Your community station watchingcontra costa county and their approval consolidating to protect Smaller Community lake brentwood and oakley and you know when you drill down on the strategy, its really to make sure that people get help and get it there fast. So Shawn Chitnis is live this morning with these Community Moves for safety. Shawn, this morning, i saw a stat that was really fascinating. Before this change, only nine firefighters for 120,000 people . Reporter yeah, reed, certainly a impressive statistic to help people appreciate why this was necessary. Were now more than a year into that change. And we know that some of the stations have only gotten that additional staffing they wanted just this summer. And its already helping part of the approach to make sure that the whole county is protected and they can move resources around when needed. Which is going to be so crucial because were still in the critical danger period for fires until winter rains begin. Shawnicia hoover spent part of her childhood in bay point and chose to come back here to buy a home last year. This is my community. This is a staple that i always want to have in bay point. So i was excited and a little apprehensive. Reporter she remembers the limited resources that pushed her family to leave when she was growing up. And had concerns about what would be there for her now. My major worry was that we wouldnt have First Responders in a timely fashion. Reporter leaders at con fire thought about this issue too. One of the things i worry about is not just the first fire. But its the second fire and the third fire. Reporter the eastern half of the county had tens of thousands of residents relying on just a few resources. Firefighters were getting ran into the ground and not able to adequately protect our communities as a whole. Reporter so unifying contra costa and east contra costa Fire Protection districts only made sense. Previously only using resources from central contra costa that had to surge in antioch and pittsburgh and then surge into far east. Theres a huge benefit even for central county residents that the far east county can now stand on its own. Reporter this summer, a recent example of the progress theyve made happened right across the street from where shawnicia now lives. My anxiety was at ease to know the Fire Department came and they handled it quickly. Reporter challenging an old view of her community and building a stronger connection among those who live here and the people who protect them. It helped me realize that were not a forgotten population. That, you know, were not too small for folks to remember that were here and we deserve safety. Reporter and its not just her and others told leaders at con fire that they were also very concerned about their safety even worried that someone could lose their life. Those concerns were told going away with this change. And theyre only going to add to the work that theyre doing trying to add more stations throughout the county. Reed and gianna back to you. Thank you so much for that and to all of the viewers if you see a First Responder this morning, just stop and say thank you and maybe even buy them a cup of coffee in the starbucks line this morning. Great idea. Its Good Neighbor day too. Sew you can do that for your First Responders or maybe your neighbors as well. I got you later. Little coffee. Still ahead on the morning edition.

Stay with us and more on last nights debate in the next half hour as we watch for the california arrival of Florida Governor ron desantis. Going to be in piedmont for a fundraiser with executives. Meanwhile, were also keeping an eye on capitol hill this morning where House Republicans will try to answer the question of whether theres connectivity between the allegations against hunter biden and his father, joe biden. There is an impeachment inquiry against President Biden and theyre talking about that today at 7 00 a. M. That will be 7 00 a. M. Our time. Not d. C. Time. Republicans are really going to try to answer the question of why they think this inquiry is warranted. Democrats so far insistent that after months of investigations in their camp republicans have really come up short connecting the president to his sons troubles. By the way no comment from President Biden so far on the inquiry but we are following his journey from San Francisco to phoenix overnight. Today the president will speak at Arizona State university and hes going to be talking about preserving and strengthening american democracy. That speech follows what biden told audiences yesterday in the bay area. Need to be really aware of and that is Artificial Intelligence and treating the technology with care. Im going to take executive action and my administration is going to continue to work with Bipartisan Legislation so america leads the way toward responsible ai innovation. The president also addressed republicans directly as the nation faces a Government Shutdown in a matter of days. Heres that. If we have a Government Shutdown, a lot of vital work in science and health could be impacted. From Cancer Research to food safety. So the American People need our republican friends in the house of representatives to do their job. Fund the government. Fund the government. Will they . Well, congress has until saturday night at midnight to strike a deal. The senate is working on a continuing resolution to fund the government at least for six weeks. Some see that though as just a mere bandaid and critics worry this morning the bill just extends services that are really packed for ukraine and u. S. Disaster relief which could put the measures in peril. California speakers mccarthy wants spending cuts and tougher border policies. Theres also a local touchstone to a huge consequence of a Government Shutdown. Fleet week. We know thoughs of you have look forward to the iconic fleet week but get this. A Government Shutdown we understand could jeopardize some of the Main Attractions that we all enjoy and so proud of every year in the bay area. The blue angels show the annual celebration set the kick off monday in San Francisco. Organizers say that at this very moment, theyre still Going Forward with everything as planned and they are on standby and you think about that. The businesses who knew that thousands of people would likely fly in. Probably ordered more food to feed more people. What about our local Business Community . I know, just to prepare for this and all of a sudden it might not happen. Also the tradition of it. Its one of my favorite things to do is to come see the blue angels and really to celebrate our men and women in service. Yeah. We hope it happens. Were going to keep our fingers crossed they can get something done in washington, d. C. And work together. Were working with darren peck this morning talking about the weekend forecast. Ahead on thursday. We always cue up talk about the weekend. Darren. Get into the detail on that. A 30 chance for light rain now guys. So yesterday we were looking at it and talking about maybe theres this small chance. The odds are a little bigger now but the totals still look light. All the detail in one second. First lets talk about thursday morning and live look from the top of the Santa Clara Valley. You can see were clear there. But look what happens when we switch the cameras and show you the scene how from mount diablo. Thats walnut creek. Notice low clouds filling in parts of the bay there. Certainly when we get inland as well as in the bay. So what well do is were going to bring on some of the imagery to show what you the bay looks like as a whole and you are going to see kind of generally weve pulled in more in terms of the way of some low clouds. And some low stratus. But its not terribly foggy down on the ground. So what we would look for is to bring in the actual information for visibility. And when we do that, look at the numbers down here. Everybodys got a 10 for the most part except for two locations. Halfmoon bay, you are 1. Thats a little below that 10 miles in visibility. But thats to be expected at the coast. You can still see six to seven miles down the road. The other place where this might be a minor issue would be in the north bay valleys. Take a look at petalumas reading. Lets get a close look at that because that number has come down as well down to around six or so but even at that you are doing okay. Not like were battling much in the way overgoing on the road there. Temperatures are for the most part, you know, in the 50s to low 60s bay area wide. Lets get the forecast and spotlight the small chance of rain we have for saturday. When we look at the big picture on the satellite and radar, you can already see the system way out on the far edge beginning to bend the clouds a little. Its way out here. Futurecast can see that. Brings that across. Basin. And brings it right to us by saturday. Lets come in for a closer look at that. Slow it down. Watch these showers way out here. As we go to friday night into saturday. Come right over the bay. And its saturday afternoon where we see this little impulse come right across the bay. So the timing is likely going to shift on this. But at this point, with the 30 chance of rain, we should start thinking about this as probably a little more likely now than it was looking yesterday. Totals are still pretty small and we still only get about 0. 1 of rain out of this but start pack coring in the possibility. Not only when we get to our saturday, do we have a small chance of rain, its also going to be a little cooler. And it will be a bit breezy. It is not ha major storm and keep the outdoor plans for now is the best way ive been saying this. Theres a lot going on this weekend and i dont want you to think this is a rainout for those but it looks more likely that rain will play some small role in the forecast on saturday likely in the afternoon. More than likely in the north bay. But not today. Today low 80s for most of the inland valleys and just like yesterday. The numbers today are right where they should be for this time of year, well be in the low 70s for much of bay. Low 80s inland. You can pretty much replay what yesterday was like and you have a good gauge for what today is going to be like. The quick overview on the 7 day forecast. The odds for that saturday are up to 30 chance of rain. Still didnt put the drop on here yet. But just know that as we get to this saturday, we might have to start including a little more rain in the 7 day forecast. And in fact i think its probably likely that we should start doing that at this point. As much as we hate to do it. Probably should. All right, gianna, hows the drive . Its a tough one so far this morning darren. A Traffic Alert on the dunbarton bridge and things are already getting busy at the bay bridge toll plaza. So if you are waking up early getting ready to head out the door, definitely start giving yourself some extra time. You can see the metering lights are on and thats a busy ride adds you work your way through there. So traffic is sluggish for anyone working your way over into San Francisco. The san mateo bridge because this is going to be your alternate route to any delays or issues that we have right now on the dunbarton bridge. There is a Traffic Alert right now all lanes are shut down in one direction if you are working your way eastbound 84 from university. Through there. Near the pope. Halfway through mid span though it look like on the maps theres a Traffic Alert issued and injury crash and now just updating that. They may have shut down both directions. Do not use the dunbarton right now. Stick with san mateo bridge or even 237 as an alternate because of this crash again. This is both directions of the dunbarton bridge and you can see that purple right there in the middle of your screen. All right, zoom in here also south of there, north 680, right at 101. Right at that connector and this gets pretty busy for the morning commute too. Two lanes are blocked right now. Due to the injury crash and a lot of activity there on scene as well. So busy, busy start to your morning drive. Well, grab some popcorn and the 15th annual San Francisco latino Film Festival kicks offer today at the theater. It will run today until october 15th showcasing 60 films. Landmarks opera plaza cinemas and the Mission Cultural center will also host screenings. Opening night starts at 6 45 tonight with the showing of mo. Thats a film about a lively latino theater director living his last days to the fullest as he suffers from aids. Well, today is also national Good Neighbor day. And i want to share something with you thats very special. You can see all the notes being posted on our window. You know during the pandemic, when we were all so isolated, my family was going through a tough time with my mom who had just been diagnosed with stage iv cancer. And my you know son, who you know being 5, 6 years old at the time, wanted to started a campaign to get people to give her words of encouragement. So my neighbors would come by throughout the week, throughout the month, and drop off motes for my mom of encouragement and every time we got more and more we would post them on the window. But the amount of people in our neighborhood that showed up to show that love and sport during a very difficult time was so special to us. And you know, a lot of times with nose notes came dinners. And just you know, flowers. And just so many wonderful things and i do get a little choked up when i think about it you know. Its hard not to. My mom is okay thankfully but this is what its all about. Being there for the neighbor and the people who you see, you know, every day. Just take a minute to say hi and you never know what theyre going through. Building a bridge and thats so important and thats who you are. Always tell the viewers i just love that you get to snow gianna every morning because if you need a friend, you have one right here. Just going to speak something into existence. That needs to be a book. Yeah. I have been doing it offcamera as well. Yes he has. Watch for the National Best seller talking about notes for nana. Talking a little bit ahead with an expert from next door about how to be a Good Neighbor. And then you know weve been asking you. Do you feel comfortable asking for a cup of sugar . Thankfully, 53. 3 of you and that 0. 3 is important. You said yes. I would knock on the door and ask for some sugar. In the 46 range, maybe go next door and bring a cup of sugar to the neighbor and take a picture and post it and use the kpix. So we can see and celebrate what you are doing to build bridges in your community. I mean its good to know your neighbor. I can name every person that lives around us and i love that about my neighborhood. I want that for everybody. So nice and you know we live in a place where we have wildfires and we have those atmospheric rivers. We need each other and we need our neighbors to get through those hard times and im so grateful for the ones i have had. And im glad you are my neighbor every morning. Same. Well, time right now 6 21. The niners will look to stay undefeated the sunday against the cardinals but they could be shorthanded. We explain why one of their top playmakers could stay on the sidelines. Once again powerball approaches the billion dollar mark. Its because i didnt win it and nobody won it.

On this thursday the 49ers play their second of three straight home games sunday against the cardinals. But they might be without one of their top playmakers. Vern glenn explains in this mornings red and gold report. Reporter the 49ers, two touchdown favorites against the cardinals on sunday. But will they have a healthy deebo samuel, who was held out of practice wednesday as he deals with rib and knee injuries . Taylor swifts visit to kansas citys Arrowhead Stadium last sunday has been well documented. She was there to support her new boyfriend, chiefs tight end, travis kelce. And that got us thinking. Which member of the 49ers would be most likely to date a pop star and all that comes with it . I have here laughing. If he wasnt already, you know, a married man, id say him. But eligible bachelor . Yeah, we dont want to get anybody in trouble. I dont know if nick has a girlfriend at the moment. But you know, probably nick or somebody. Got a lot of lowkey key guys in here, but if i would have to say, probably deebo, man. Deebo strikes me as probably somebody. Other than that, everybody else is pretty lowkey. Hes pretty lowkey, but i mean, hes deebo. Reporter with the red and gold report, im vern glenn. Asking the serious questions there. All right, a big blockbuster deal went down in the nba. The portland trailblazers traded seventime allstar Damian Lillard to the milwaukee bucks. Its part of a three team deal that includes the phoenix suns, this was all over the social media yesterday. The trade comes months after the oakland native requested to be traded back in july. So lillard has been in portland for 11 seasons. End of the era. Earning himself a spot on the all nba teams and led the franchise to the playoffs eighttimes in the team east history. He ranks first in points and three pointers and second in assists. So with lillard leaving port lands and the top three active players in the nba that have been with one team the longest, can ages . Step curry. Klay thompson, and draymond green.

Its h happening. 6 29 in the morning and right now on spare, Southern California showdown. As seven republican president ial candidates faced off in a second primary debate. Once again, the frontrunner by a mile, donald trump, was a noshow. Jarred hill live in new york with the biggest moments. Our state playing host to the big candidates but the big question this morning i think a lot of californians have, did anybody really differentiate or get any traction. Reporter thats a big question. Lot of voters have to answer that over the next couple of months and we saw a lot of verbal jabs thrown here reed but the big question as you mentioned the seven candidates and trying to differentiate healths from each other and former President Trump . Take a look. At the second gop primary debate, seven president ial hopefuls took aim at President Biden on a range of key issues. Like the auto workers strike. Immigration. And the economy. This strike is at joe bidens feet. Joe biden should not be on the picket line. He should be on the southern border. Bidenomics has failed and wages are not keeping up with inflation. Reporter several times candidates on stage clashed with each other. Former u. N. Ambassador nikki haley and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy going toe to toe over tiktok. Part of how we win elections is reaching the next generation of young americans. Tiktok is one of the most dangerous social media apps that we could have. And what you have honestly every time i hear you, i feel a little bit dumber for what you say. Reporter multiple candidates also stepped up their attacks on former President Trump who skipped the debate to campaign in michigan. Donald trump is missing in action. You are afraid of being on this stage and defending your record. You are ducking these things. You keep doing that, no one up here is going to call you donald trump anymore. Were going to call you donald duck. Reporter trump still holds a commanding lead in the polls for the first gop contest in the state of iowa. With me as your president , our opponents will lose and our American Workers will be the biggest winner of them all. Reporter a spokesman for the former president says he plans to skip the next gop debate as well. And the next gop debate which former President Trump says he wont be at is scheduled for november in miami. Back to you. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump was in michigan telling auto workers that if electric cars become the way of the future, they wont have jobs. What about jobs . Any talk about getting people back to work there on the debate stage . Reporter yes, so there was general talk about getting people back to work and the economy. But a lot of that ended up going back to attacks on President Biden. Talking about inflation and talking about the Biden Economic policies and plans. Not a lot of conversation from these candidates on the stage, at least. Regarding what they would do to get jobs back going and so again, thats something that a lot of people i think are looking toward, what was interesting though is that with a lot of answers that we heard from these candidates to any question almost, that was brought up to them, is that it went back to the topic of immigration, linking immigration to drugs that are coming into the country as well. So that really for these candidates at least was something they really wanted to discuss. So fascinating. And you know, they set the agenda for the next 24, 48 hour news cycle on those topics. Jarred. Thank you so much. You know who was also front and center last night in the president ial policies arena, your governor gavin newsom. By the way he still wont answer the question about president ial ambitions. Because at last nights republican debate, he was seen in the Reagan Library spin room arguing counterpoints to republican talking points in the debate and guess what . He was there as President Joe Biden spoke person declared the biden agenda is the real winner. Our governor also took aim atthe man he will debate on fox news in november. Of course Florida Governor ron desantis. Your home city of San Francisco is in good shape . Im saying that crime is a real issue. But i find the hypocrisy, unwillingness to be honest with the American People, and the unwillingness to take responsibility, ron desantis take responsibility for his own crime rates in his own major cities, i find that curious, not surprising. Thats all. So you are going to see more talk about San Francisco and the bay area in fireworks between the two governors on two separate coasts literally and politically. They are divided. Newsom versus desantis, fox news sean hannity and a nation will be watching november 30th in georgia. Sad news from the entertainment world this morning. Harry potter fans listen up. Sir michael gambit a veteran actor who played harry potter films has passed away. He had a career is that lasted more than five decades and spanned tv and radio and movies. He starred in dozens of oscar winning films and earlier became a he is hold name in britain in the singing detective but best known of course to many in six of the harry potter movies. Michael gambit an amazing career passed away at the age of 82. Democrats this morning continue to call for the resignation of new jersey senator bob menendez after he pled not guilty no new york to bribe bring charges. The senator seen with his wife both accused of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes. Cash and gold bars and even a luxury convertible. He says the allegations are baseless. Gianna . All right, reed, lets get straight to traffic right now and alert has been issued on the dunbarton bridge this morning. We have two car crash that at one point chp shut down both directions weekend and westbound. Of 84. And i just got an update they opened up westbound lanes. This is right at the highrise area where the crash happened. Its affecting both directions. But eastbound lanes especially are still closed. So if the meantime, stick with the san mateo bridge and its a little slow near the toll plaza. Thats because we just got word of a new crash here near there blocking at least one lane involving three vehicles. That commute really tough this morning and you can always use 237 as well. Thats moving nicely at least in both directions there but again the bridge eastbound lanes still closed at the highrise and westbound very slow because of this injury crash. Lets head to darren right now with a look at that forecast. It is thursday. We are almost to the weekend. Friends. We can see it and celebrate it. Thats right. And i have got my jeans and my jean jacket ready for hardly strictly. Yes, and thats going to be a great event. The only issue with that, like anywhere else in the bay is saturday. Theres the small chance now which looks a little more likely for some light rain on saturday. So keep those plans. Just know we might start factoring in maybe a tenth of an inch of rain for the bay. Saturday. Much more on that coming up in the complete forecast. But before i get to saturday heres thursday. If you take a look at the sleeve rue from the top of mount mount diablo more in the way of clouds this morning. Not like were battling fog. In fact if we bring in the visualization for what that looks like right now, it does look like its a little more widespread than it happened over the last few days. And we are filling in some of the valleys like we were seeing from our camera on mount diablo back there. And we were kind of looking back towards walnut creek out here. You can see a few more clouds filling in. But a better way to really get a specific handle on what visible is like is to actually bring in the numbers and everybody has a ten meaning you can see for ten miles down the road. Its not a fog issue except for two places. Halfmoon bay where your number on the visibility reading is come down to about six miles. Looking at about a slightly lower reading than ten miles and the north bay valleys. And thats pretty typical too for this time of day. This time of year. Where some of the low clouds will smell in through the gap so petaluma, your number on there is down. You can get up to petalumas number down to about six miles. So just mild issue. Dont worry about encountering any fog out there. So lets leave behind the visibility issue. And just leave you with one notion. As we look ahead towards the forecast all eyes are going to be on that saturday opportunity chance for light rain. And ill go into much more on that coming up in the complete forecast in just a few minutes. For now back to you guys. Ugly scene recently, this captured here on video at the palace of fine arts and alleged thief did not appear to care that there were people all around as he took off with pretty much everything in that car you see right there. Even a dog walker hit to get away car with his leash and now auteurism agency is taking aim at San Francisco staying scenes like this right here are whats keeping people away from their city. According to the Silicon Valley business journal, Team San Jose told the city during a presentation for many years we were positioning ourselves as part of the bay area. Or maybe the heart of the bay area. Much of the national and International Focus for the bay area is negative now. But the problem is apparently not just whats happening in San Francisco. Its whats not happening in san jose. Team san jose is a partnership between the Convention Visitors bureau and hotels and more conventions are needed they say in san jose because they help restaurants and other spaces in a big way. Annual report for fiscal year of 2021 22 shows while other parts of the country have met or exceeded prepandemic levels in the travel industry. San jose is slower to recover. Prepandemic, most of our conventions were large tech groups. Coming in. A lot of those conventions have cease ceased to exist. In the report overall attendance at Team San Jose managed facilities was at 54 of prepandemic levels. However, overall spending by attendees at restaurants and bars and hotels only reached 25 . New report for the most recent fiscal year is coming out soon. Its possible the numbers will be more encouraging. Hope so anyway. Well, speaking of cash, drivers are forking over a lot more of it to fill up their tanks. We can all feel it at the pump. Prices up to 10 cents in a week or up 10cents in a week. More than 60 cents in a month. How about that . Industry experts blame supply cuts and offline refineries. Whatever it is, its put our going rate per gallon more than 2 over the national average. Which is why its kind of weird that one gas station owner in mill valley is actually selling gas for 30 cents cheaper. Andrea nakano asked him how. Reporter the lower prices here are marins worst kept secret. And the gas station owner saysize customers are the reason why his prices are so low. Thank you. Reporter mike bought this gas station in 1995. Lets just say the prices have gone up dramatically since then. One time, the price i was at 99 cents. Reporter the price at the pump has skyrocketed just in recent wreaks but asking any of his customers, they will tell you why this gas station is still the best in town. Why do you come here . Because its the cheapest. More cheaper than the other ones. Reporter its so popular, that a line of cars sometimes backs up to the shoulder of highway 101. Mike calls his business the costco of gas stations. You go to costco, probably whatever item that they have, you cannot find it anywhere. At that price. And at the same time its good quality product. Fantastic. So you just keep going. And you just keep shopping. It is pretty much the same idea here. Reporter he relies on the volume of business, he didnt see how much his margins are. But hes able to set smaller margins to keep prices low. You hate the high prices as much as the customers do. Reporter its not good for his business when prices jump. Higher prices to him translates to fewer gallons sold. When they do go up, people get sensitive. They get they get, you know, nervous. And they use less. They pump less. Reporter still, drivers know when prices are high, this place still offers the best deal. I make do with the smallest amount of margin. So people are used to it and they trust it and they dont have to check around. Reporter nobody knows when prices will go down, Industry Experts say they may even go up further as Northern California refineries send supplies south until refineries impacted by Tropical Storm hilary come back online. 6 42 in the morning.

Mark zuckerberg says the characters still have a lot of limitations but theyll continue to evolve over time. They each have a unique back stories and interesting opinions they bring to that. That will just come out even more as they evolve over time and i also think its going to be fun to watch them interact with each other too. The characters will soon be found through all of metas platforms. Kind of exciting, gianna. It is. And its going to be definitely very interesting to see how all that sort of coming together. All right, lets get you moving on the freeways right now. A Traffic Alert thats going to slow any commuters down thats taking the dunbarton bridge this morning tween 880 and 101. Injury crash involving at least two vehicles and you still have a lot of activity there on scene and in fact at one point chp shut down both directions of the dunbarton east and westbound. Westbound lanes are now open. But they are diverting traffic from eastbound off at university. And thats a pretty big delay there in both directions. So you cant use it eastbound right now. Westbound though is backing up which is also the commute direction for the morning drive. So your alternates are the san mateo bridge. Theres crash there. Thats a busy ride too. Pretty tough tween 880 and 101 this morning. So the crash on the dunbarton is countercommute. Taking eastbound 92 certainly better but tough delays on the westbound side as well. Your second alternate would be 237. Both directions between 8808 and 101 actually moving at an okay pace through there. So definitely grab that coffee and get going if you are taking that ride between the nimitz and 10. All right, thats a look at the morning drive. Lets get that forecast and darren, hows it looking for this thursday morning . Oh. Looks pretty good out there this morning, gianna, with temperatures going to warm right back up to about 80 today with plenty of sunshine. So thursdays fine. Saturday, thats the issue. We still have this chance of rain which looks a little more likely by the time we get there. Spend most of the visit focused own that. Real pretty view over the south bay. Thats what it looks like from the camera above the Santa Clara Valley n terms of starting out thursday the numbers are pretty much right where they were yesterday at this time of day. Its the afternoon today that might be about degree or two warmer. So if you look at the south bay you are zitting in the mid 50s. Redwood city 52. Numbers for the city are pretty much right in line with that. And if we go inland and just check in on the numbers for places like concord and antioch, your temperatures are right around 60 in concord and a few degrees cooler in the north bay. Not terribly different today. Its 48 degrees in petaluma. Everybody inland goes to like 08 and sunny today and here in the bay San Francisco probably goes to 70 and moving on. Into the details on this chance of rain on saturday. So were going to look at the big picture and when we go out to the pacific, this chance of rain, system hasnt even developed yet. If i want to show you where its coming from we have a change from regular satellite. And on the water vapor you can see right there. Look at that little kink. Thats it. Now the forecast models are able to resolve that with a little more clarity. That thing works its way across the pacific and by the time we go to saturday now its right off the coast. We can now start using some of the High Resolution mold ole to get a better handle on this. And when you watch friday night, we get a little bit of a wave of energy comes through friday. I dont have rain in the forecast friday night. But well notice it will get a bit breezy and cool and on saturday watch what happens. Little bit of rain rotates back around the edges. Now were looking at saturday going into the afternoon and you can see a few showers here. Clipping through the north bay and then coming through the rest of the bay. So this is not a rain out. Its not a significant storm. But its saturday and its a chance of rain. So when you look at the totals now were looking at perhaps maybe about a tenth of an inch of rain. So weve been watching this for the last 36 hours now and confidence has grown. If theres a take away on this, its not like you necessarily should cancel the outdoor plans firefighter weekend but theres so much going on this weekend and saturday the likelihood that light rain will be at least a part of it. All right a look at today. With plenty of sunshine today, temperatures are right back up to average. Were going to the low 80s for the north bay. Temperatures right in the heart of the bay are low to mid70s. The only thing thats different about today from yesterday is if you want to be technical about it the numbers are maybe two, three degrees warmer than we were. Its a slight warmup for thursday afternoon. But you may not even notice. In the 7 day forecast, we have the update to saturday. So if we take a look at the numbers on here, you dont see a whole lot of change. Theres thursday and theres friday. You are still in the mid 80s when you take a look at thursday on there. Friday 77. But you take a closer look at saturday now. You see the drop of rain thats on there. The temperatures will cool down to the low 70s. Nice thing is it doesnt last long. By sunday we started warming up. And by next week, those inland numbers are back in the mid 80s. That covers the 7 day forecast for our warmest microclimates. Lets look at the bay and you will see the temperatures are more 70s. But the theme holds true on there for saturday. Which is we do have ha chance of rain and look at the dip in temperatures. You are going to come back down to the upper 60s. All right, guys, back to you. [ speaking in a global language ] east Bay Community is working to save welcome toto big tobacaccs fantasylyland.

Hispanic heritage month gives your community station the opportunity to celebrate so many diverse voices. Including voices from our guatemalan community. Jose martinez tells us from the fruitvale district in oakland how one man works to make sure voices in the mam language are heard and understood. [ speaking in a global language ] reporter what you are hearing is mam. An ancient mayan language native to guatemala. Mam is not just where i live. Its in many regions and parts of san marcos. And [ indiscernible ] and reporter but you can also hear it here in the fruitvale district of oakland. Where oswaldo martin, a native mam speaker, has lived here since he was 4. At the time, my grandfather had been here since 84 and the reason he was here and many other families fled guatemala in the 80s, to mexico and to the states, was because of the genocide in guatemala. Reporter just like in his case, thousands of guatemalans created a home away from home here in the bay area and many of them only speak mam. Not even spanish nor english, so eight years ago he became an interpreter to help build a bridge. Especially for those seeking asylum. Really got to learn more about the immigration process through just that internship. And getting to know how my community, some of the problems that they faced. Reporter and oswaldo shares that knowledge with Crecencio Ramirez through the only mam language Radio Station in oakland, radio balam, which has over 50,000 followers on facebook. So you can see were doing a lot of impact over here. Were informing people about their rights. Reporter crecencio started this project during the pandemic to inform his community and its language. Today, its an awardwinning platform impacting thousands of newcomers. The population is growing up every year. Recently about three years ago, we did the census, it was about 20,000 people. But we didnt count the kids. And now if we do it over again, probably 30,000 to 40,000. Reporter you can see that hard work is reflected in the lives of people like marta and cathy. They went from receiving information to offering help through a group called maya voces. We are ready to focus on those to get this help to teach them that theyre that they have rights to stay in this country. That they can have the support. That theres research, that theres legal things that they can find if they want to report a crime.
