Surrounding areas are in San Francisco and portions of the east bay Still Holding on to that pocket of bad air quality like we saw for much of the morning yesterday too 50s and 60s are your current temperatures. Its a nice and cool start to this day it will be a fairly cool afternoon compared to where were heading even though today will be warmer than yesterday was the low 90s we can handle that and conquered livermore morgan hill each in the low 90s Hayward Fremont redwood city anywhere from the upper 70s to low 80s now to talk about the heat because that really is the most pressing thing this weekend that you have to plan around in addition to the haze. We will all will be under either excessive heat watches impeach or warnings in pink and as for our specific regions, the peninsula. You can expect temperatures anywhere from 7 to 8 degrees at the coast come saturday and sunday to triple digits in areas a little further away from the water south bay temperatures also a range of 90s to triple digits east bay counties like alameda and contra costa from 96 to a 110 degrees your average daytime highs and you can see why so many of us will be under those excessive heat warnings as for solano county, some of our hottest temperatures a 100 to a 112 degrees will be your temperature range this weekend or a sonoma and napa counties 92 to one 06. Well former in a little cooler but still hot 78 to 99 degrees for your average highs. Im talking plenty more about that heat and the rest of your forecast ahead. Robin i hope you have better news, hear you have all the hot spots job i have not found any hot spots in traffic so far but i do have some slow spots checkout 92. This is your commute across the san mateo bridge and yes, it is quite busy right now leaving hayward but no big problems so you get some relief at the high rise if you go ahead and leave now your average is still under 15 minutes to make it over to the peninsula. Hear from oakland to San Francisco. Were checking the bay bridge toll plaza wide open no problems here 10 minutes off to fremont street and a peek at the Richmond Sandra fell still looking good was no major issues to the north bay you can make this drive in 7 minutes to connect off to one on one chain its ok. So it is 6 02 lets talk about the power alert has been issued for this weekend because of what john was just talking about those triple digit temperatures were expecting throughout the entire Holiday Weekend. Kron fours will tran is live in Mountain View this morning with the latest will. Robin im in front of a cooling center one of many cooling centers in the bay area that will be open starting tomorrow today you should enjoy the very last day of. Comfortable weather in fact i even have long sleeves come tomorrow. Its going to be tank top and shorts and flipflops because in certain areas you heard john sure able talk it might even reach a 10203 depending on where you live in cooling centers are important because so many people dont have access to air conditioning. And if you have access to air conditioning pg and e is telling all of us try not to use it so much to the point where try to set your thermostat to 78 degrees or above in fact, heres some highlights that they want to pass along to us. We are the 5th largest economy in the world but we still have flex alerts that are issued every time they know its going to be dangerous weather so here it is set your thermostat at 78 degrees try not to use major appliances on saturday sunday and monday between 3 9 oclock in the evening, those of that heavy lifting hours according to pg and e and if you have power strips that are not in use or just other appliances like lambs that you dont need to turn on maybe you want to unplug it because that will take a little bit of the strain off the year of the entire pg and e system we had a chance actually to talk to pg e about the flex alert. Here this here they are once again talking about it. We see heat related Power Outages when the temperatures are triple digits for an extended amount of time because equipment just cant cool down fast enough and we also see Power Outages in areas that arent used to having tripled it digit temperatures over an extended amount of time for example, coastal areas where maybe the equipment just you know isnt used to having that heat for an extended that money he for a long period of time. So genes robin its almost the perfect son storm because its so hot many people will be at home and then home you might not be able to use your air conditioner as much as frequently as you would like so got to keep in mind all of those things maybe even if you have air conditioning come down to a cooling center. They have food they have snacks they had games for you they keep in mind if you go to a cooling center. No matter which when you go to its the new norm now wear a mask practice, social distance and they will take your temperature before you enter any cooling center so many to pass along to you fortunately we have kron 4 dot com come jog go to our website we will let you know all the cooling centers and the times that they will be available.

Its not those 3 locations for the most part those other beaches are open that includes areas like Half Moon Bay out in San Francisco. Warren county on alameda, those beaches are going to be open now Health Officials are urging people if they do decide to go to any of these open locations to be mindful and be safe take a listen. Together we need to get through Labor Day Weekend really protecting one another these dont have parties where people do not have masks on just because theyre a neighbor does not mean they couldnt be. Positive we dont want to see a repeat. The surge is that we have seen following a Holiday Weekend. We dont want to see a surge under any circumstances but particularly as we go on the other side of labor day and into into the fall. We want to go into that with a running start in the right direction. We dont want to go into that with another surge that we have to turn around again. Now several parks and campgrounds throughout the state are also closed. We have a list of that apple kron 4 and we saw a surge in cases last Holiday Weekend.

The scientists behind the model say that we could see 3,000 deaths per day by december. Even worse the model projects more than 600,000 people could die by january if all restrictions are eased across the country simultaneously but Scientists Say the model also projects a 120,000 lives could be saved.

Which probably get a check of the weather right, yeah you still have those triple digits in store and its another spare the air day of course john trouble sending today, i wouldnt mind if you guys skip well think know what it really wants to hear about what weve got ahead of us but we need to hear about it because it is going to be really really hot. These next few days today, good news is is our last one with at least seasonably warm conditions so if you need to get some work done outside you do have a chance to take care of that today. We have some smoke and haze still lingering across the bay. Berkeley here not the best of air quality for you you do have some low cloud cover over the east bay to our worst of air quality is right around the golden gate portions of the east bay, the for this northern end of the peninsula and then southern marin county otherwise there are pockets of better air too so its definitely not all bad news as far as their quality goes. Those problem spots are going to shift these next few days because well have a complete change in wind direction this highpressure ridge that has built up is going to result in winds rather from the coast moving inland moving from our inland areas out to the coast. This means were likely going to get some of the smoke that are inland valleys have gotten pushed out to the bay which isnt good news. We are also going to be seeing some of the heat from those inland valley areas pushed out or direction to youre really going to notice that impact come tomorrow. So todays daytime highs as i mentioned one of her last moderate days 60s 70s from San Francisco through Half Moon Bay. Well Still Holding on to 70s for most of our bayside areas today will be another comfortable one for palo alto at 76 Mountain View at 79 south bay highs in the 70s to 80s to with san jose 84.

The label at 79 vacaville, antioch pittsburgh 90s beats the triple digits that youve got heading your way santa rosa 84 today. So all of us across the bay area are going to experience either an excessive heat advisory impeach on this map or excessive heat warnings in pink what those making well temperatures are going to be very hot dangerously hot for many of us sunday and monday will be our hottest days of course thats the last part of the weekend and then labor day which is an extended weekend for many of us on these 2 days we could see daytime highs in excess of a 110 degrees for some of our inland cities which is dangerous make sure to check on family members that may be more susceptible to the heat and make sure we get to a spot too. And its not just our inland areas, but bayside areas upper 80s to low 90s and out towards the coast on sunday we could see some 80s in the mix right there along the shoreline. So all of us will have some hotter temperatures. There is good news to focus on this isnt going to last forever we do have cooler weather around the corner come wednesday and thursday. Robin, im looking forward to the relief already thank you job checking in on your.

Erica kious is demanding that pelosi apologized for her actions. The white house released the Security Camera video showing pelosi inside the salon wearing a smock with wet hair and a mask around her neck but not on her face. Invisible defiance apparently of our local Face Covering order along with the fact that salons in San Francisco still cannot work indoors now caja says that pelosis claim that she was set up or false. She says an independent stylists named Jonathan Denardo got a call from either pelosi or her team asking him to come to her house, but he instead scheduled appointment at the salon okay us insists this is a double standard that needs to be addressed. In america, those in front of congress and lies they go to jail but apparently. When the most powerful woman in the road buys to america. We owe her an apology. The point of releasing this video was and is if a woman in a highrisk age group who spends much of her time on tv warning about the dangers of covid19. Feel safe and comfortable. In santa ana San Franciscos salon and can be responsible for being cautious and mindful, why cant the rest of San Francisco and the rest of america do that to going into your golden arches lawyer says that he stands by his previous comments any wants to move on. He says hes. Had a steady stream of Death Threats in the aftermath of all of this. He says he and other stylists to have also reportedly quipped. Meantime more than a dozen women showed up outside Nancy PelosisPacific Heights home, they expressed outrage over the speakers actions kron fours Maureen Kelly has more. Over a dozen women showed up outside the House Speakers Pacific Heights mansion wearing curlers in their hair and draped in plastic as if they were at the beauty shop, they hung blow dryers in the tree outside and expressed their outrage over pelosis trip to the union street salon monday.

She wants Small Businesses to stay shut down. But only reopen for her convenience. Do as i say not as i do says nancy pelosi, this comes the day after pelosi herself fired back at the release of the Surveillance Video to fox news as it turns out it was a setup. So i take responsibility 4 falling for a set up a former stylist at the salon things politics are at the root of this you know, shes a huge chance to play again and i know she cant and nancy pelosi like us they think it was politically driven i know, shes just we have very someone can open the president tweeted about the controversy saying quote. Crazy nancy pelosi said she was set up by the beauty parlor owner when she improperly had the salon opened does anyone want to speaker of the house who can be so easily set up pelosis deputy chief of staff re tweeted the president s remarks adding does anyone want a president of the United States who is more focused on this nonsense rather than crushing the virus and saving american lives. Maureen kelly kron 4 news. Well now to a big story this morning President Trump denied a report in the atlantic magazine, the claims he had insulted Us Service Members killed in battle in chose to skip the ceremony honoring veterans. Trump spoke after returning to washington from raleigh and called the report disgraceful. Everyone knows its totally false general keith kellogg. It was a highly respected man couldnt believe what he heard. And he knows everything about. And to think that i would make statements negative too. Our military and our Fallen Heroes when nobodys done what ive done. With the budgets with the military budgets with getting pay raises for military. It is a disgraceful situation. Democratic nominee joe bidens campaign used the report to slam trump saying in a statement that if the article is true. It is quote yet another marker of how deeply President Trump and i disagree about the role of the president of the United States. Coming up next the coronavirus continues its grip on the American People and the economy where lawmakers stand with a possible second round of stimulus checks. Plus were continuing to monitor the high heat were expecting triple digits coming so check out the numbers today 93 in 86 and now the 91 and morgan hill 85 in nevado well be welcome back everyone lawmakers return to capitol hill next week and theyre expected to take another look at covid19 relief to help americans. The white house is presenting a new thinner stimulus bill but democrats say that proposal is too little too late whitney wild has the latest from washington. Americans hit hard by covid19 Economic Impact have gone from disappointed 2 desperate when he i lost my job. So to me like one. To get a ton of the job. This is my cheek but im making with senators will return to capitol hill after labor day likely taking another look at stimulus legislation meant to ease the pain as regular citizens navigate the devastation republicans and democrats remain oceans apart all i can tell you at the moment is where the stalemate so i dont know whether were going to get another package. Here in the next few weeks or not. Democrats suggested a multi trillion dollar relief bill, but republicans wont sign off on the cost and propose smaller legislation to fund schools, Small Businesses and scale back federal Unemployment Benefits democrats accuse republicans of ignoring the totality of the crisis Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer wrote to his colleagues. Republicans may call their proposal skinny but it would be more appropriate to call it emaciated so determined huge and i hope you will return to the negotiating table. Prepared to find common cause on legislation that meets the press and needs of americans. Adding pressure the budget deadline at the end of the month. If they cant agree on a deal to fund the government lawmakers will face yet another shutdown. Whitney wild kron 4 news. Coming up next look at todays highs as were expecting a day to day in the 90s and this is going to be the cool day compared to whats coming up because this weekend were going to be solidly back up in the triple digits in fact keep warnings and advisories for the entire Holiday Weekend weve got john trouble in the weather when its made with love, its made to be shared. In fact the opening bell just rang so we have the beginning of the trading session officially getting underway futures have actually been strongly positive. Were looking at the dow futures, what just a few moments ago was up a 150 points s p futures are also positive nasdaq was down just a little bit off 63 points ahead of the official trading day so well see where the numbers go but at least for the dow anyway, it looks like were going to be off to a positive start. But well see where it tracks we had a pretty tough day yesterday. And checking our numbers in the Weather Center to change those forecast highs are going up this weekend. Yeah, the direction we dont want to see him going but john trouble standing by with it. A closer look at all of that made john hey guys. Yeah weve enjoyed what has been some pretty comfortable weather the past couple of days, albeit a little hazy at times. Well keep the haze around now and those temperatures are going to skyrocket today is one of her last more comfortable once you see the blanket of cloud cover that is settled into the bay during overnight hours mount am in the distance rising above it from our sutro cam and definitely still hazy right over the golden gate through southern marin county northern end of the peninsula and portions of the east bay there are better pockets on the map too just watch are qualities you step outside to maybe get some stuff done before the heat of saturday sunday monday arrives, todays temperatures right now at least 50s and 60s later on today well have some 60s 70s 80s. And yes, a few 90s back and play it will be a little warmer than yesterday but compared to where were about to be a lot cooler than that every single one of us across the bay area is either going to be over under advisory impeach or an excessive heat warning in pink in the reasoning behind this is were all going to be hot. Temperatures close to the coast will be in the 70s to low 80s with some parts of the peninsula even into the low triple digits, south bay highs 90s to triple digits. You can easily see why so much of the south and east bay are lit up in pink indicating those excessive heat warnings as temperatures will be so hot 96 to a 110 degrees for your temperature range saturday sunday and monday for portions of the east bay 100 to 112 for solano county. While little closer to the coast in sonoma and napa county in or from 92 to 106 and out towards the coast and point rays could get up to 78 to 99 in those more sheltered areas away from the coast, ive got more updates on just how hot it will get still to come in the forecast robin.

Well now to the latest on the wildfires, the lnu lightning complex fires in the north bay are currently 81 contained with more than 375,000 acres burned the scu complex fires burning in the east and south bays are currently at 80 containment. More than 391,000 acres burned there and the czu lightning complex fires burning in san mateo and santa cruz counties are up to 51 containment this morning with more than 86,000 acres have burned there. Well crews are also making progress in the work would fire thats burning in marine county right along the Point Reyes National seashore that wildfire is 57 contained has burned more than 4,000 acres. Well california inmates who have been helping to put out the wildfires are actually getting a chance to pursue a permanent career in firefighting its thanks to a state measure lawmakers approved just this week, former inmates who took part in a Firefighting Program run by the department of corrections well actually get their records cleared so that they can apply for a firefighting job, but only if their crimes to not include arson murder kidnapping assault or any felony that could get them the death penalty. Now one of the bills coauthors believes that this will reduce the risk of them landing in prison again after their release. And you want to read citizen race if you want to make sure someone successful and they get out of prison and give them opportunities and theres no doubt with those that have been fighting fires that theyve earned respect and whether they are next and run or not should at least be for debate and there should be something to judge will decide but i think many of those that are fighting fires are absolutely. Need to be exact same work. As the firefighters are trained and why says. Inmate firefighters are often the first sent to the scene to create fire lines using hand tools during the pandemic many of them were on able to help this year which highlighted just how heavily the state relies on their work as of august 25th, there are more than 1300 incarcerated firefighters.

Sure does look nice this morning, a theres a little gray overhead but your air quality is actually pretty good compared to areas right around the golden gate where that pocket of stubborn as still is hanging out for parts of san are in portions of the east bay this morning. As far as temperatures for the rest of the weekend go we are going to see some really hot dry air from our inland valleys thrust all the way up to the coast that means a lot less cloud cover in gray in the skies. But when you take that away thats when you get the excessive heat, so i think in this case wed all prefer the gray that weve been having during our morning hours. And just not see those triple digits like were about to today is one of her last days that will still be holding on to this marine influence and thus a nice moderating effect on temperatures. We in the 60s and 70s on the peninsula with highs in foster city at 79. Getting into the 80s from seeing carlos southward into the south bay where daytime highs today will be a bit warmer than yesterday but definitely not as warm as theyre about to be 70s 80s and 90s now for the east bay livermore and pleasanton back to the low 90s same for you in danville in concord oakland at 75 while the north bay 70s 80s to 90s as well, vacaville at 94 hot spot you better hot spot. A lot this past week but that hasnt been saying much because it has been too hot. Thats about to change though all of us across the bay area will either be under excessive heat advisories in the peach color, or excessive heat warnings in pink now the warnings or where were going to have the dangerously hot conditions thats where daytime highs for inland spots will be at 100 degrees or well above by sunday and monday some areas like vacaville, even areas like fairfield could see daytime highs at a 110 degrees and above again thats sunday and monday the core of your heat wave right there bayside areas 80s to low 90s for many of our daytime highs by sunday and even up the coast tapping into the low 80s. So it will be hot across the region get yourselves to cool spot. Definitely keep a close eye on family members. Were a bit more susceptible to it. All right, thank you john, lets check in on the morning commute the friday morning commute is off to a fantastic start. We havent had any delays so far at the bay bridge toll plaza, you know a lot of folks take friday off and we just dont see the traffic that we see like monday through thursday on a friday, so still nice and light here 8 minutes making it into San Francisco.
