Thats staffed 24 7 top notch shortly after returning to the white house the president tweeted that he will be back on the campaign trail soon i hope the president s recovery stripped the success of our nations covered crisis thus far far from over democratic president ial nominee, joe biden criticized his opponent at a Campaign Rally in florida for not taking his diagnosis seriously now that hes busy tweeting campaign.

Thats when the president hosted 150 mostly maskless guests in the rose garden for the Supreme Court nominee and about a dozen people who are at that event ended up positive for coronavirus it seems that that was the super spreading events that same day though the president went on with his adviser hope hicks to an outdoor rally in pennsylvania. So you could see covid would be spreading more a few days after that on the 29th. Thats when the president and the first family then attended yet another event of the debate in cleveland and we already know that there were several workers about a dozen workers who flew into cleveland for that that tested positive. A Moderator Chris Wallace says the president didnt take a covid se got there late and it was the honor system he just said he was negative. The day after the debate, the president out mingling again another outdoor a Campaign Rally in minnesota. And it said that event where his adviser hope hicks this had symptoms. And she ended up get with those symptoms getting on air force one and flight flying back with everybody turns out there are press on air force one that have subsequently tested positive. And then on october 1st the president held a roundtable and a private fundraiser in new jersey and then it was later that night that he said he tested positive for the virus.

So far and more than 16,000 californians have died of this deadly virus and in the bay area that includes 1500 and 31 people who have died of covid. Now lets go to the wildfires which have not been thank god but theyve been destructive so far chewing up more than 66,000 acres of land in napa and sonoma counties and 557 homes but we do have some good news, 50 containment, those are new numbers this morning just coming in to kron 4.

I just found out more information this is clogged the Glass Mountain in and it used to be a bed and breakfast instead as you can clearly see james and area it is gone, im sure they would love to be under the threatened at this particular time, but its not threaten it is look at that is still smoldering, this is one of 2 buildings we will walk through here and we will show you thats one building there. Theres the other building it is still smoldering on that hillside there and keep in mind. This fire started on september 27th, there is really nothing left at this location. Let me show you video kron 4 was here. The hours and days after this particular in was on fire and firefighters try their very best to save it to make sure that there was something to return to im sure they fought valiantly, but unfortunately the fire just simply too intense too overwhelming that the firefighters they obviously had to save their own lives. They did what they could and then they did put out the flames they made sure that the hot spots were predominantly gone and then they left this area, theyre still crisscrossing and if youre coming back in youre not allowed obviously right now because its under lockdown only the media unauthorized personnel are allowed here but eventually people will be allowed to come back and then try to salvage what they possibly could if we can head back out live now we were able to walk from one building to the next. James story, a look at this i mean it is just wiped out only the chimneys there im sure one time. This was beautiful with people coming and going what a wonderful part of the world. Instead this part of the world now is on fire. Youre already declaring that this is the worst fire. And napa valleys history and think about all the fires that weve seen over the past couple years. And theyre already saying this is the worst. There are a lot of wineries that cannot be saved 15 wineries either damaged or destroyed. And this talk about the grapes right, the grapes are very important not just in Northern California but the entire world for with the wind. If they produce here. Is already talk that theres nothing left to do as far as producing wine. Step possibly even trying to make brandy out of that smoke filled great just to make some money out of this because really look at this everywhere you look along silverado trail just like this location.

Look at the view youve got some cloud cover sitting in the bay down below and were already seeing that cloud cover starting to lift a bit burn off so the process is starting to clear already you saw that cold front behind me sitting out in the pacific. Thats about to be sweeping through and helping to wipe out the High Pressure system thats been sitting for so long now across the west coast. Resulting in our hot hazy dry conditions that weve been seeing so much these past couple of months as for the next few days you gradually see that cold front pushing its way towards the bay area this push of the jet stream is going to result in cooler weather and along with it. Some showers that are looking likely into friday and saturday our first chance of rain in some time now and a very minimal chance of any sort of convective activity that would result in lightning along with the showers. So some good helpful rainfall. The to quench the very dry conditions that california is in the midst of now if you are in the vicinity of a burn scar from a recent wildfire. Do you know, theres still plenty of loose debris. Xun loose and those exposed areas as far as temperatures go today that 60s 70s for San Francisco, 50s and 60s right along the coastline can remain a little gray towards the coast while sunshine will propel elsewhere with temperatures in the 70s to 80s right along the bayshore woodside 86 san to file any for today.

Look and you see how slow it is leaving hayward were down to 26 minutes to make it from its over to send the tail and that is a huge improvement in your drive time but as you can see the traffic is still quite crowded so consider that before you head out. You may want to take the dumbarton bridge.

You dont remember al infant and his crazy stunts looking up kids or ask your grandma. The nfl just told teams they are going to use a new video monitoring system. To make sure the players are following protocol. Theyre also instituting a total ban on gatherings outside of Club Facilities you can probably thank the raiders for that new rule since almost a dozen players, including derek carr and Darren Waller were caught mingling with their masks down at a fundraiser. The nfl just find them 15 grand apiece but the next time a team violates the covid rules, the penalties will be stiffer including losing draft picks or for failing a game and thats because the nfl doesnt want to see any more games fouled up the patriots the chief said to play last night because cam newton and chiefs could not back up quarterback have covid and 20 people with the titans have tested positive in the last week. Roger goodell says the nfl is clamping down quote because complacency is our shared opponent. The astros are proving to be a tough opponent for the as in the American League division series.

He made 3 to one as, but Carlos Correa ruined that fast he hammered his first home run in the 4th inning and hit another homer in the 7th and a runscoring single and then and he made every play shortstop as leave Dodger Stadium beaten 10 to 5 but not defeated. You know usually with. Our team and how we end up finishing games both offensively in in the bullpen. We felt like we had a good chance just didnt happen or not by means like panicking or nothing like bad states.

Well i was in rentals reporting now according to the cdc, those with mild to moderate symptoms of coronavirus like the president had can be contagious. For as many as 10 days and should self isolate to prevent further spread.

Its a political season, so it doesnt surprise me or anybody but certainly has been packed did the president s life quite directly and quite significantly has been in the hospital the last number of days to dismiss this pandemic is anything but what it is a deadly pandemic deadly disease thats impacting lives destroying families as well as our economy i dont think advances collective cause of bringing this country back together. Statewide in california. The governor says that the cases are starting to go down and thats looking good but state Health Leaders are projecting that we could see an 89 increase in covid hospitalizations in california by the end of the month. Lets take a look at where we are right in the bay area of california is 16,181 deaths. We account for 1531 covid deaths right here in the bay area. As more people consider traveling as were getting into the Holiday Season Oakland Airport is now offering Free Covid Testing started today if youd like one, but not right in the middle of the airport which is a good thing because you know if you are going to start flying thats the last thing you need.

Well take quick break time now is 8. 37 to coming up. Introduce you to the latest nominee for the california Supreme Court and the unique perspective 39 and Governor Newsom has nominated just as martinjenkins to the california Supreme Court. Yeah if confirmed hed be the first openly black man to serve in the states highest court. And he says that will be a strength in something he brings to the office Bridgette Bjorlo from our sister station ktxl has more. Governor Gavin Newsome adding a gaggle of diversity to californias high court with his nomination of 66 yearold martinjenkins who if confirmed would make history as the first openly person to sit on the state Supreme Court bench my identity has as a game perhaps the greatest challenge of my and its not been easy in his acceptance speech monday jenkins said he jumped a lot of hurdles in his life to get to this moment, not only due to his sexuality but also for the color of his skin jenkins, but also become the 3rd black justice to ever serve the golden state i am not in spite of the im here because of the struggle and as mcgeorge law Professor Larry levine points out jenkins has a fresh perspective to the high court at a time that matters most having spent part of his decades long career as a federal civil rights prosecuting cases of Police Misconduct in the 1980s he brings with him that experience life experience. As well as judicial experience. One of the things that particularly moves me about his appointment is that he comes from more humble roots as an openly man himself working along views mondays nomination as a symbol of hard fought progress because youre not in some others, not. Who recognizing. Just about diversity value of the quality and as jen gains rejoices in his achievement he hopes to inspire others living in the shadows to step out into their light i want these young people to that living a life city is the greatest gift you can give if you do that you find yourself in a position where people really see you and we will end. Coming up next voters in the east bay will show up well they did show up to find ballot dropoff boxes closed yesterday on the very first day of early voting here in california. County Officials Say it was a simple mistake, it for if can get the weather. But like it you love and its would you call it crisp foggy good or its all of all the way just active. Thats right i think after months and months of hot dry weather this got to be the the good had that start of fall feel i think everyone gets really into it this time of year. That cool down that first, cooldown you gotta love the relief from the heat and thats kind of what weve got going on ahead of us you can see the low gray hanging out the east bay here and that is something that we saw yesterday to but not causing as much visibility impacts to that cold front right behind me there thats whats going to be pushing in the days to come helping to nudge out the High Pressure and the helping to sweep out some of the haze and get rid of some of the hotter and drier conditions that weve seen so much of and have resulted in quite a lot of problems for us these past few months as weve had such a historic fire season. So this rain a welcome sign of change that line of showers along with that cold front sweeping through especially come friday. Now we will see some shower activity likely here in the bay area either friday or into saturday when a second push of energy comes on through. Now that is great news as far as air quality goes temperatures going to be cooler great to get some moisture on this dry vegetation. Not the best news if youre in the vicinity of a recent burn scar from so many wildfires, theres a lot of loose debris is there and that risk of landslides is president as rainfall arrives now temperatures today in the 60s and 70s for San Francisco today yet another dry one after a gray skies to start lots of sunshine expected into the afternoon today. And daytime highs will still be warm albeit tolerable warm 80s and 90s for some of our inland areas today, its really going to be the last day im talking about in this forecast where we have 90s so if youre a fan of the warmth. Do you enjoy today as much as possible, although i think most of us at this point are going to be pretty happy to wave goodbye to the 90s for a little bit. Tomorrows temperatures will fall from an average inland in the low 90s to inland averages in the low 80s and will further fall into thursday friday saturday sunday well be in the 70s for our warmest of temperatures believe it or not friday and saturday, those chances of rainfall do arrive and it will be a cool weekend.

Thank you robin, one of the propositions of californians will be deciding this year is whether 17 yearold should vote in some elections Capitol Bureau reporter Ashley Zavala explains proposition 18. With voter approval 17 year olds will be able to vote in primary and special elections if theyre 18 by the following general election current law requires voters to be at least 18 years old for all elections in california supporters proposition 18 could help boost use participation. This is crucial that young people out there as lee says her issues like climate Economic Opportunity access to higher education. Were talking about our High School Seniors are going to be learning about mechanics of voting. So this in no way is being done for partisan advantage quite the contrary back. Younger people are moving in the direction of no Party Preference opponents a 17 year olds are not legally adults they claim they have no real world experience to make informed enough decisions and could be influenced by teachers on issues, especially tax increase proposals we think this is way of the story before. Who will only can see his and trying to get those extra votes texas this should 80s of over weekend thats for 18 other states already allow 17 year olds to vote in primary elections fiscal analysts say if passed this could cost an additional 200,000 to 1 Million Dollars every 2 years depending on the county in sacramento, Ashley Zavala kron 4 news.
