But fog is creeping up the know that you are social distancing and you need space. Green means i tested positive central coast, but again its very shallow in this kind of a pattern when the high is this for antibodies and i am willing strong. To socialize normally for other there is some to the north, but people.

Well have some catching up to do. Welcome back to mornings on 2. In florida, managers of todays scheduled launch designed to carry american astronauts into space for the first time in nine years, are closely watching the weather. Right now theres a 60 chance of good enough weather for this afternoons scheduled launch. Hoping for a mission like this is whole career. The one thing that we get to put on our list of dream jobs that we would have gotten to have some day, it would have been to be a board any spacecraft and be conducting a mission test a port that craft. The will be the First American astronauts to launch into space since the American Space program. They will be the first to make it a board the International Space station aboard a private spacecraft. The owner, elon musk, providing the rocket in a dragon capsule. An amazing vehicle, it is deafly not the Space Shuttle in many ways, its much smaller, but a capsule. It is state of the art from a technology standpoint, and we are so excited to be in a real spaceship and not the simulator. Now the space x dragon has only flown to the station was before it had a test dummy inside. In march space x provided the capsule that then jettisoned from the rocket and safely splashed down in the atlantic ocean, if something were to go wrong with the launch. Nasa says a whole lot is riding on todays scheduled mission. We are really here to try to motivate the next generation but, we are not rushing it. Safety is number one. And well keep that in mind all the way through it until we get them back home. These space x marketing capsules, launch pad 39 a, florida, which is where apollo 11 took off on its journey to the moon, more than 50 years ago. The decision about the weather, both at that launch site and across the atlantic ocean, expected to be made about an hour before the scheduled launch. If the launch is not delayed by bad weather, you can see it as it happens, right here with us on ktvu fox 2, live coverage is set to begin at 1 25 this afternoon. A new report shows more than 60,000 healthcare workers have tested positive for the coronavirus, and then at least 290 have died. The cdc just released those numbers yesterday. Officials say the Health Worker status was only available for 21 of cases for which data were collected, so the actual numbers are likely higher. Here in california, the state reports more than 9300 healthcare workers have tested positive, at least 50 healthcare workers have died from covid19. In california, alone. Theres a new way to communicate as to how much social distancing you want or need. The c19 project is designing colored wristbands to let others understand your needs. Green means i tested positive for antibodies and willing to socialize with normal people. The projects founder says it is to reduce anxieties and get you outside more. Proceeds are going to First Responder charities. Well, gasia, i suppose people will start staring at your wrists now. Okay, sal is joining us now and you are joining our commute and have good music as well, but do you see good traffic too . Yeah but we do have traffic and a bit of slowing creeping into everyday commuting. Lets go out and see what we have now, with interstate 80, westbound, as you drive out from the richmond area, heading out toward the macarthur way, you will see it is taking about 23 minutes, a bit more than it updated, and there is a slowing a backup just at the toll plaza before you get in about a 10 minute wait. Here traffic is moving well in both directions. Todays weather is going to be hot again, lets bring Steve Paulson back in here. I think there will be cooling a bit it will still be average, but we peeked out and inland temps will be 90s, low 100s again but some to the north and south, and the highs are not leaving just yet. As we go down the coast, i think santa rosa has the best opportunity they were tied 94, but oakland and san jose, not on this day all the records were sent. 1984, that was a hot day. Today will still be hot but not as hot. 50s, 60s and 70s, there are some 70s already showing up, so for some inland areas it will be another scorcher here with temperatures 25 degrees above average for this time of year. To the westsouthwest, we will start doing two things, fog increasing tonight and friday, and cloud covering for some possible rain. Showers, thundershowers over the weekend, but the general rule is here we will cool off, and by the time we get to saturday, there are measurable amounts being forecasted. So something to watch as we head to the weekend. 70s, 80s, 90s today, and after today, that fog and sea breeze will be kicking in big time, and we will usher in a major cooling with some big changes. You guys . Steve, thank you. It is now 7 21. Progress in the fight against covid19. Where one country has gone, five Straight Days, without a single new coronavirus case.

That country has gone five days without rated early travel restrictions, social distancing, and widespread testing for success. In california, disneyland california theme parks will be allowed to reopen during stage three of the governors reopening plan. State Officials Say those parks can reopen if the rate of spread of covid19 at current stays stable. They are working on developing a plan, the governor has not set a specific date for when stage three could begin.

From ktvu fox 2 news , this is mornings on 2. Well, good morning to you, thank you for joining us, on mornings on 2, im dave clark. Good morning, im gasia mikaelian. Today is the last day we have to bear the heat, because according to meteorologist Steve Paulson, there are some good changes ahead, arent there, steve . I think the fog will be in tomorrow morning, if not late tonight. There will be a little cooling, and i will be surprised if we will see a breeze kick in later. The timing is always tricky on that, but sometimes it kicks in around 2 00, sometimes not until 4 00. But we will be well above average, breezy conditions, 60s to 70s, san jose is already 78 degrees. One more hot today. Cooler on the coast and slightly inland. On returns tonight, it will be in tomorrow morning, the fog. The cooling wraps up on friday, and that low, it might even give us some rain as we head to saturday. 100, way above average, but we are on the way down starting tomorrow. We will head over to sal. I know its crowded for some, is that still the case . I think that right now we have a pretty decent commute for wednesday going on. I want to show you some pictures here, and you can see for yourself, that there is a bit of slowing, and that is becoming normal, if you are driving on westbound. Looks like westbound bay bridge, you will see traffic is going to be a little bit slow, and not sure if the metering lights are on. Also, looking here at the commute, if you are driving on interstate 880, there have been no major issues driving north and south, driving through. South bound 80 is a little slow in hayward, and if you are driving on the also pass, we have slowing traffic at 580, to a five. 7 32, lets go back to the headlines. Sal, thank you. Five cooling centers in san jose will open today, because its going to be so hot. City officials decided to open them last night. Temperatures were in the high 90s. The cooling centers are in camden, cyprus community, mayfair, roosevelt, and seven Trees Community centers. And they will be open from 1 00 to 9 00 p. M. Tonight. Also from 1 00 to 7 00 p. M. Tomorrow night. When you go there, though, you have to wear a face mask. Hair salons and barbershops can reopen in most california counties. But at least one bay area county given the green light to reopen says its going to wait for now. Will bring in ktvus allie rasmus, working from home of course to explain what this all means. Allie . Reporter well, gasia, they have permission to reopen salons and barbershops, but in a message last night, Sonoma County says they will hold off on reopening those businesses for now. Here is a look at a tweet that they sent, the county explaining it had a large increase in covid19 infections and hospitalizations this past week, and that is why they are not ready to open her salons or places of worship just yet. We reached out to county officials to get details on the timeline, and we are also hearing back from Solano County on when salons will open there. Right now, napa county appears to be the only bay area county the near future. Have to follow rules. All workers and customers must wear face coverings and undergo temperature screenings. All magazines, books, and coffee have to be removed, and there must be six feet of space between everyone besides customers and barbers. Just one salon says when they do reopen in Sonoma County, they will be taking additional steps to protect customers and themselves. Disclaimers that people will sign, that says we are meeting you here with this safety and sanitization, you know, in respect, please sign this and saying you are doing the same for us. Places like mail salons, massage parlors and tattoo parlors are still not allowed to reopen anywhere in california. The governor says those businesses should reopen in the next phase of the states reopening plan. But if you are thinking of driving to napa county from where to get a haircut or get your hair done, county officials in napa say thats not allowed. You have to stay in your county residents, hair salons are technically only going to be allowed for napa county residents. Reporting live, allie rasmus, ktvu fox 2 news. Allie, thank you. 7 35. Shopping centers now open, San Mateo County allowing Shopping Centers to reopen for curbside pickup, even businesses that dont have direct access to the curb. 120 stores at hillsdale Shopping Stores opened yesterday, including old navy, and macys. Im really happy that we can finally get everything rolling again read im just really worried that people wont take the right health precautions. But im get excited to get going. Weve done a nice social media push, letting everyone know this is happening. Keep in mind customers still cant enter stores, they have to place an order by phone or online. Most of hillsdales 1000 employees have been out of work since the pandemic hit. 25 stores are expected to reopen this week. All right, gasia, the time is 7 36. Some churches pressuring the governor, even suing the state to get promotion to open. However, one faith leader is telling people to slow down. Reverend Johnnie Clark has a most passed away from the virus. He preached every day until contracting the virus. Hes 72 years old, he told us at ktvu the pain of covid19 was unbearable. He even thought about suicide. He was in the hospital for almost 1 1 2 months, and on a ventilator for 10 days. I was in such horrible turmoil and agony, until i actually wanted to take my life. It hurts that gods people are suffering. It hurts because i cant do anything to really help, but pray. The doctors think reverend clark became infected when he was in new orleans earlier this year. He says he misses going to church, he misses delivering sermons, and also feeding the homeless. He is urging leaders of churches to slow down, follow the advice of medical professions. 46 more dmv offices set to reopen this week. The department of Motor Vehicles saying 71 locations will be open by tomorrow. Helping drivers with limited transactions that require in person visit, and abutments are required here.

All right, our time is 7 38. Many storming the streets after an african man was killed during a violent encounter with the police. Here is some of the protest, what began as a crowd of a few dozen people grew to hundreds during the day, and into the night. Some of the protesters were throwing rocks at the Minneapolis Police precinct. They smashed police car windows, demonstrators want justice for george floyd. He , on monday while being arrested. Man responsive right now he is not responsive right now these pictures have been seen around the world. Angering people everywhere, police say that floyd matched the discussion of a suspect they had been searching for. Four officers involved in this were first put on paid leave, but hours later, after this, they were fired. And, the mayor of minneapolis defended firing them. Being black in america should not be a death sentence. This officer failed, in the most basic human sense. Both the fbi and minnesota authorities are investigating this. The family of george floyd says, those officers involved should be charged with murder. Former Police Officers are weighing in on the death of george floyd, in saying what in what, putting his knee on floyds neck and kept it there for nearly 8 minutes. Techniques where you put your knee over the shoulder area next to the neck, but not on the neck. He is badly applying something, top where he did something he. A spokesperson says the technique seen in the video is not something taught at the police academy. The retired officers also say they were concerned about the lack of intervention from the other officers, who were there. All right, gasia, thank you. The time now is 7 40. Steve paulson has all the information on how things will change after we get through today. That is correct, dave and gasia. Sams chowder house by half moon bay, clear, and i think tomorrow, well, right now the fog is trying. There is a bit of fog to the south did you see some of that, but there is too much resistance right now. To the south it is creeping up through the central coast, very shallow. Records today on this panel, i would think santa rosa has the best opportunity, and 94, thats the forecasted high, 94. San jose does not appear to be record highs. 1984 with those previous record dates. 60s, 70s on the temps, a couple 50s, but 60s or low 70s. It will be very hot. 90s, the wood hundreds again for those well inland. There is, if you want bay hills, and in marin county hills. It could collapse, but there are signs of that.

Things are cooling down, steve, as we look at some of the commutes. Its still a bit slow. I remember when, just a few weeks ago, we looked at the bay bridge in the morning, there was no slow traffic. That is not the case anymore, as more people are crowding around that hole plaza. There is some slowing here. 88 he is a bit crowded, as you head down, there is slowing in hayward.

A car went off the highway into the water, and the driver did die in this crash. Highway patrol says around 5 30 this morning was going westbound and tried to pass moving traffic and crossed over double yellow lines. When he went to the eastbound lanes to pass, there was another car coming eastbound. In order to avoid a headon collision, the vehicle swerved to the left, went off the roadway into the water, upside down.

New this morning, the San Jose Fire Department is still at the scene of a latenight fire that sparked up again early this morning. The fire first started around 10 50 last night at creature lane and mb avenue, not far from piedmont high school. It destroyed a garage and burned three cars. Cruise were able to get the fire out before it spread to nearby homes, but firefighters later were still dealing with hotspots reigniting the fire. The residents reported their garage was slightly open at the bottom, and they may have been running a fan in the garage, possibly just to get some air in there to cool the hot. You know, some appliances have a hard time managing that heat, if they have been running for a long time, so we suspect that it potentially may have been something to do with the fan. The red cross is helping the five people who were able to safely evacuate their home due to smoke and water itself. All right, steve mentioned mainland temperatures could reach triple digits again. Lets check with Sara Zendehnam with safety precautions one south bay city is taking. Good morning, mike. Well, there is some relief for those living in the south bay.

You have to wear a mask, keep your distance, stay home if you are sick, and temperatures will be checked at the door. The shelter in place orders shut down Community Centers in midmarch. City officials decided to open them with limited hours to give people another option to get out of the heat. In precoronavirus times, they could seat up to 2700 per day. Now other places to cool off, like movie theaters, libraries, and museums, the enclosed, there are more out. Vulnerable populations are at a greater risk of heat related illness. It is important to recognize the signs and get help immediately. Any faint feelings or high body temperatures, throbbing headache, its a pretty quick sign. And you know, if you begin expressing symptoms, try to get to a cooler location, drink some cool water, if you are able. Take a cool shower or use a cold compress. Here are some tips to stay safe. Stay hydrated, drink a lot of water. Hide out in air conditioning, if available. Avoid spending too much time outside, and dont exercise during the hottest parts of the day.

Workers and customers must undergo temperature screenings, and all common items, like magazines, books, and coffee, have to be removed. There must be six feet of space between you and everyone else, except the person cutting your hair.

The family is saying the officers should be charged with murder. Former Police Officers are weighing in on the situation surrounding george floyd. The arresting officer put his knee on George Floyds neck and kept it there for nearly 8 minutes. Techniques where you put your knees over the shoulder area next to the neck, but not on the neck. Just badly applying something he was taught, or is doing something that was never taught to do. Pressure on the neck can cause someone to suffocate. A minneapolis spokesperson says the techniques shown in the video are not something taught at the academy. The retired officers are also saying they are concerned about the lack of intervention from the other officers there.

New this morning, President Trump is using his twitter account to voice his anger about twitters new fact check feature. Just a few hours ago, the president tweeted that he will strongly regulate, or close down social media accounts that silence conservative voices. However, there is no clear framework for how that happened. Two of the president s tweets, claim the ellis using for california elections would be fraudulent and would result in a rigged election. At the bottom of each tweet is a link that reads, get the facts about mailin ballots. The link warns users about potentially misleading information. The president s tweets abou ove Governor Newsoms election plan. The Republican National committee and other gop groups are suing the governor over his executive order to mail a ballot to every registered voter in california for the november election, calling it a power grab. The lawsuit argues its up to the legislature to make such a decision. Massive civil rights violation and violation of the voting is legitimate voters to spend the entire electorate with unrequested absentee ballots. I dont think it deserves to be politicized. This is a health issue, and its an issue on the basis of principle. I hope we can temper our comments on the other side, though i recognize we are in a political season. Colorado, hawaii, oregon, utah, and washington, already conduct elections entirely by mail. Governor newsom says hes also working with counties to keep inperson polling places safe amid the pandemic.

Biden can wear a mask, but he was standing outside, with his wife, perfect conditions, perfect weather. They were inside, and or masks, so i thought it was unusual he had one on. The november is just six months away, and both candidates have use mask as a way of attacking present opponents. Also retreating a comment mocking the Vice President for wearing one on memorial day. The former Vice President joe biden, later fired back at President Trump, he is a fool. An absolute fool to talk that way. I mean, every leading doctor in the world is saying we should wear a mask when in a crowd. The cdc issued a recommendation in april that people should wear masks in public to help stop the spread of covid19. Doctors we spoke with said masks should have nothing to do with politics, and everything to do with public health. Teacher resignations could be on the rise, according to one poll. Teachers are saying they are unlikely to go back to school if your ski classrooms reopen in the fall. 82 of those polled say they have a harder time doing their job right now.
