The big threat now is going to be those heavy rains resulting in flash flooding in still some strong winds gusting as high as 75 Miles Per Hour forced crews will have to evaluate the scene right along the gulf coast in louisiana. As thats where were expecting most of the devastation to have occurred as far as air quality goes in the bay weve seen significant changes over the past few hours started off with our worst air quality in marine county that has now shifted to or worse air quality down in the Santa Cruz Mountains as we make our way through the day this map is going to be changing constantly but as of right now the peninsula and the east bay are some of your better areas as far as what youre breathing in. Fog still hanging out for the east bay and the coast thats gradually going to retreat by the time we work our way towards early afternoon, some nice sunshine to look forward to right now 50s and 60s are current temperatures cooler start to the morning than what we had yesterday. Im tracking what to expect next still to come daria thanks a lot 9 09 right now and coming up. The cdc update since guidelines on coronavirus saying that now you shouldnt be tested or dont worry about it if you dont have any symptoms. Health experts 9. 12 and some breaking news out of the bubble. The nba players entered still meeting right now, but we have learned espn reports that they have voted to resume the playoffs which as you know they put on hold yesterday. We do understand that theyre still going to be postponed, it looks like today, so they havent figured out when theyre going to resume all we know at this point is this is the vote a so far from the players who are going to vote and meet again later today with representatives from 2 players from each team. Will they carry on these playoffs without the clippers and the lakers who are both favored at this point to win because the lakers and the clippers had already said yesterday after 3 hours of meetings that they were done with the rest of the playoffs that they didnt want to play anymore. So were going to have to see what happens there. The plus at this very time the board of governors for the nba. Theyre also holding separate meetings. So well keep you posted but that latest development indicates that the season may not be but it might be over with certain teams. It depends on whos going to keep playing so well keep you posted 9. 13 is a time right now the cdc updated its guidelines on coronavirus testing saying that even if you are exposed to somebody who you think or even know has the virus that if you dont have symptoms you dont have to worry about getting a test that has a lot of Health Experts concerned ago because of Contact Tracing and the possible spreading of the disease even further that way the previous guidelines were the cdc said you should get a test. Even if you dont have symptoms if you came into contact with somebody could have had coronavirus so now with this new lower bar saying you dont have to get tested. Some Health Experts are of afraid theyre shocked and theyre very concerned including Santa Clara County Health Officer doctor sara cody. I first heard about this change in guidelines. I actually didnt believe it for it seemed entirely bizarre in that it under pets are very basic tenants of how we control an Infectious Disease. Testing and having individuals know their status is foundational to our ability to control an Infectious Disease and certainly our ability to control covid. Infectious disease expert doctor Anthony Fauci says he had nothing to do with the cdcs change and recommendations he was having throat surgery when the cdc made the changes and now he says hes worried about the new recommendations concerning governor Gavin Newsome also does not agree with the change in the recommendations and he is now promising to double down on the daily number of people getting tested our Capitol Bureau reporter Ashley Zavala reports. California leaders announced wednesday they into new deal with a major Diagnostics Company to start processing an extra 150,000 tests a day in an effort to disrupt the Testing Market and improve reliability and access for everybody in terms of getting tests and getting more importantly test results back in a timely manner the one 0. 4 billion dollar contract with perkin elmer would more than double the states current daily Testing Capacity to about a quarter of a million covid19 tests a day with the turnaround time of 24 to 48 hours the state is currently processing more than 100,000 tests a day averaging results within 5 to 7 days, but it will be months before the new program is up and running state leaders say the ramp up testing would begin november first and run until march of 2021 Health Officials say this program will also test for the flu to help us move not just schools, not just businesses but really to create a level of insight into how the transmission. Of covid19 is moving interstate wednesdays announcement comes as the cdc issued new testing guidance no longer recommending asymptomatic people get tested even if theyve been exposed to the virus. I dont agree with the new cdc guidance period, full stop and its not the policy in the state of california. We will not be influenced by that change the update comes as the governor prepares to release a new reopening strategy in california. He said those new guidelines will be out friday in sacramento, Ashley Zavala kron 4 news. And tomorrow in the east bay, certain Contra Costa County businesses are going to be allowed to resume operations outdoors. Because theres been a gradual downward trend in the cases positivity rates and hospitalizations the businesses that are allowed now to open up include personal Care Services like as you can hair coloring massage.

Many Major League Sports were brought to a halt yesterday because of the social change. The players want to see in the wake of the shooting of jacob blake. And the nba is one of them. The nba brought to a halt. Weve just found out that they do plan to resume the playoffs. The question is with whom will they play lebron and the lakers and the clippers had already said they want to out so whats going to happen now connor let her know is a reporter on the covers the worriers with the San Francisco chronicle and he joins us on the phone good morning. Hey thanks for having me thanks for being here to give me some perspective from a Sports Reporter because you follow this closely even though the words as we know are in it, but. This just in from espn is theyre saying that the players met theyre going to meet again today and figure out a way to resume. Do you see that happening all without the lakers and the clippers or maybe somehow theyve changed their minds. I think theres back going to resume and i surprised if the lakers and clippers were not it sounds like from what were seeing it sounds like. Brown is starting to change his stance a little bit space you know the reaction of the rest of league and he made i dont think the lakers and clippers want to be the 2 teams rather you know ruin the entire format and the entire endeavor i think they understand that. The them a lot to make this happen and they respect that so. Theyre going to find a way to continue to make their voice heard and i think they the the league made a really strong stable yesterday we began that will put down, but i dont i dont think were done but any sort of gesture or declaration. Our statement when it comes to these protests. I would be surprised if lakers and clippers in play another game. And so if they are going to play which it seems like they will theres got to be some kind of action to come out of this right because they already said theyre tired talking affect what i understand is when the bucks were deciding that they were going to play yesterday. They were trying to get every kind of official politician everybody they could on the horn on the phone yesterday because they want to see something actually happened i think beyond like the nba pledging to stand by them. Yeah i i think one thing that really impressed me yesterday, you know now we do that the bucs refused to play the game but there. Or reach out to the attorney general of content in there. Theyre trying to make substantive changes, you just just doing a protester point or county again not enough for them like you said they they want to see actual change carried out and that you know i think that thats a lot of it has only been on the forefront of the issue they think theyve been really progressive when it comes to issues of racial inequality. And Police Brutality and i thought it was really fitting yesterday that the nba with the bill that we can really get the dominoes falling and that the buck sitting at that and that prompted the 2 other games to be postponed. And other League Following said so the nba though is banned kind of a trend setter when it comes to this stuff. Okay, which brings me to the nfl which is certainly not been a trendsetter. But they just did jump on the bandwagon of at least giving lip service to the players who are fighting for social change. Some teams have already come out they said theyre not practicing today. And thats their way of kind of standing by with the nba players do with what do you think about where football is going to go in all of this. And youre going to get my i dont call that like that, you know the nfl. Has always kind dragged its feet from a leadership standpoint and other players, im a definitely had their role Colin Kaepernick and other players kneeling during the anthem and what have you but i its hard when you dont have to clear to the commissioner thats fairly supporting in times like this and i think Roger Goodell has but a lot of lip service and he is yes said the right things at times but his actions dont always work like that of the nba, and let you know they have someone at adam. So were always been very supportive of the players understand where theyre coming from so. It will be interest and it will be really yeah got my all right let me go back to your wheelhouse which is the warriors right is that your be. Have you talked to anybody, im steve kerr is always outspoken on this stuff steph curry has anybody said anything. I you know either passed the first initial shooting on sunday. With jacob lake or the nights of protest leading up to last night in the nba. Yeah several players have been social media about dream on green had a along response on instagram and had several explain that he supported the players decision to set up in just a bit the same time he did feel like the nba needed to resume. The playoffs because we have the platform and by not using that platform, youre kind of doing a disservice in some ways a huge bill. Like the nba needs to continue to play games. And you the fans to get their message across which is it looking like thats going to be the case and then there are other guy like eric pass cool and want to come anderson a bit we have been on swiss to talk later today with a bomb looney and jordan poole both of whom are walking it is not far from kenosha so im curious to see their thoughts on everything thats going on and then i think are a lock box but talk to later today and we all know that you then. Very vocal about the issues in the past and i have a i have a feeling of this will be no different well thats a little tease for you and well give you a plug them. Thanks a lot Connor Connor letourneau. Just go to twitter and by guess follow you as well and to get the very latest on the worriers reaction to whats happening in the nba.

In washington, im karin caifa. Doctors are sending a warning about the potential impact of this years flu season during the covid19 pandemic doctors at ucsf. Say the flu shot is going to be key in keeping the infections down theyre worried if people with influenza and up in the icu theyre going to take up precious resources needed to help patients who have Coronavirus Health care professionals also anticipate a slightly different set of problems for patients with the flu. Theyre worried about looking at this primarily through the lens of influenza youre going to have problems with that and a confusing diagnoses since they both present in the same way. And again if theres a large surge in covid there may not be as many available beds for patients with influenza. Doctors say patients with both covid and influenza are at a higher risk of getting pneumonia which could lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Its 9. 41 right now we want to check out the forecast here on a thursday morning john hows it going well so foggy daria and that fog is being pretty stubborn likely to hang out through noon for a lot of areas we are seeing the Berkeley Hills here shrouded in it so even though its sitting right above the east bay this morning. Youre looking at it keeping things kind of gray and pretty cool to kick off this thursday. Now air quality has been improving for some areas, not approving for others the bigger differences weve seen is up in the north bay marine county started the morning with really bad conditions now hang on the moderate air quality out to the Central Valley and eventually down into the south bay as where youre looking at more moderate to unhealthy conditions once you head down towards morgan hill, san martin then especially down towards santa cruz, which has the worst air quality in the region. As smoke continues to be put up by wildfires now that is going to be changing minute by minute through the day so keep a close eye on those air quality maps and make sure that youre planning your Outdoor Activities when things are good for your area like right now in the east bay and the peninsula, good times to get out there even though its foggy and cool air quality is just fine so not a bad forecast at least for right now to step outside and enjoy these areas. Temperatures today will be some of our coolest and we can think of few Different Things for that. High pressure is sitting to our east and kept that way by this nice dip in the jet stream which is opening the window for us to get some nice ocean cool theyre a very deep marine layer scooting across the bay area this morning as one of the reasons we are so cool and our so foggy all the way towards our inland areas. Why does such a great start that marine layer is it going to be intruding as far inland come tomorrow as these winds begin to relax and your friday. That means we have a big jump in temperatures tomorrow feel like cool weather today is your chance to get out there and enjoy it. And hey if you want some more weather to start the weekend. Well tomorrow is definitely going to be your day. 50s and 60s for San Francisco as well as right along the coastline on the peninsula. Some of our cooler temperatures some of our foggiest of conditions right there at the coast 70s in millbrae down through burlingame further south on through Mountain View and palo alto 77 in Mountain View today a little cooler than yesterdays low 80s for you sunnyvale and santa clara also in the upper 70s today while san jose low 80s for your daytime high freeman through hayward in the 70s. Well 80s in the tri valley on up through conquered in walnut creek. Oakland 70 for your high well berkeley and richmond in the upper 60s. Les how an app a noticeable drop from yesterday upper 70s for you while pittsburgh in vacaville are only 2 spots in the 90s probably going to be joined by a lot more cities come tomorrow as daytime highs on average for both in london bayside areas rise 5 degrees will be a short lived warmup we cool off and into saturday before we warm up again with the last few days in our home state of wisconsin weve seen her in this video taken place being shot in the back 7 times by Police Officers notions. The additional shootings protesters despite overwhelming plea for change there has been no action. So our focus today cannot be best. We take the court rivers in milwaukee, wisconsin. We are expected to played high level. You max and had only 2 other counties. We hold ourselves to the stand in this moment we are demanding the same from lawmakers and law enforcers. Were calling for justice for david blaine and demand a whole new hanover county. For this to occur. It is imperative for the west across the state legislature to reconvene after months of inaction and take the meaningful measures to address issues of Police Accountability without criminal justice reform. We encourage all citizens to educate themselves take peaceful response will action every member to vote in november. The Milwaukee Bucks decide they cannot played basketball while their brothers are dying at the hands of police bringing a halt to the nba playoffs and almost every other sport underway in america except for hockey. In case youve been living in a bubble. These wnba players is spelled out why jacob blake, the black man who was shot in the back 7 times by police in wisconsin. After the Milwaukee Bucks park the nba to postpone their playoffs. Theyll Milwaukee Brewers did the same in baseball in all 3 games were postponed yesterday, including the giants and dodgers to decided theyd rather play a double header today then play on a day when much of the sports world was making a statement. My individual actions are to come by both peaceful protesting with meaningful positive action to promote real change. And again i i just dont think my place is to force and he wanted to do anything but rather to share and consistently share what i believe. Conversations and try to change things where i can as a white player on this team is how can we show support something tangible that we can do to help. Our Black Brothers on this team and this was close to home is not too far away from from where we we live for a majority of the year some guys are from here. This is is a person to us listen. 3 cops one guy theres got to be a better way to him getting shot in the back right now my head is like ready to explode like just in the thoughts of whats going on. And for me. I think the biggest thing now is to kind of. As a black man as a former player. I think its for the best of me to support the players and just not be here tonight. Heres what weve been talking about. And as well well continue to talk about. You know having you know 2 boys and homes. And me being africanamerican in america and to see. What continues to happen with the Police Brutality towards my time. Continue to see what the will goes on with the they just in just. Is this is very troubling very troubling you know we play a beautiful game which brings so many great Families Together and people be able to rejoice in and enjoy it. But at the same never lose track of what it was really going on in our world, especially in america, so. No my prayers go to the family and then hopefully we we have some change. Big as you could hear of the response from people in all walks of life in sports. And if you asked le bron its over the clippers and the lakers. They walked out of a 3 hour meeting last night telling the other teams were done. And now the nba board of governors. They just started a meeting at 8 oclock our time to decide whether this boycott means an end to the bubble playoffs, an end to the entire basketball season and. What about next without the football season. That starts in a couple of weeks several teams are voicing their support some have even taken action washingtons Football Team with the nfls first black president at the helm. They canceled their practice today. How big this will get depends on how frustrated we see the players and those in power again and i think clippers coach doc rivers, that what he said about all of this really reverberate so im going to end with just a bit of that.
