They got a break. Supervisors of the county voted to expand the protections for people facing eviction because of the pandemic. The rent moratorium that took effect in march was due to run out this month. Now it is extended by one month through the end of september.

The only cure that is going to happen is people going back to work. And there has to be tolerance and understanding from landlords and tenants.

Todays weather starts off cloudy for most if not for all but for many. Another pretty good push on the fog bank but it wont last as long as yesterday with temperatures coming up yesterday. They are not listening. They are reversing course and starting to warm up. Thunderstorms over the sierra got pushed out of the tahoe area but still close enough.

There is plenty of fog but is going to get chewed up with a northwest breeze later this morning and into the salmon. Today will be warmer and nice but we will start a warmup and then it kicks in on thursday, friday and saturday. The one caveat is how much tropical cloud cover will move in from the remains of a Tropical Storm. There will be some timing on that but very difficult to guess. It looked like some is on the way.

From ktvu fox 2 news, this is mornings on 2. Thank you for joining us. Mike and i are lucky enough to have grown up in the bay air. Mike, you worked in cities is where that had high humidity. We are about to see it here but what is your thought on how humidity is when it comes to weather . I landed in topeka, kansas in august 2000 and i told myself that my next job would be west of topeka and sure enough i mentally made it to the southwest there was dryer heat. But my goodness, i was not a fan of humidity. But now we may get some humidity later this week. A little hint for us. Yes. Humidity with houston. But we wont get that bad. But for us to get an increase admittedly with the fog but it is cool. Its when it is 95 or 100 degrees when you get higher clouds coming in that that makes a huge difference. That looks like what will happen over the next couple days. Not today though. It will start thursday and then take us into the weekend. Low clouds that will burn off soon. Winds will be a factor but it will pick up later today. 50s and 60s with fog burning off. 60s for many already. We are running a little warmer than we were 24 hours ago. We will look for fog to burn off sooner with lots of sunshine and that higher cloud deck coming in tomorrow night and maybe into the weekend that could play into our weather with humidity along with some warm inland temperatures high todays will be 60s, 70s and 80s and back into the nights for some. So far pretty quiet. We are looking at oakland now and right now we have traffic moving well in and out of downtown oakland. It does look very good if youre driving there north and southbound on 880. No major issues driving through the area. Traffic continues to look very good work also at the bay bridge, we have recovered with the traffic coming to San Francisco. Lets go back to the headlines. A historic moment in u. S. History pick a woman of color on a Major Political ticket work joe biden has picked senator Kamala Harris as his running mate and that is fueling a surge of emotion across the nation. Joining me now to talk about this is vanessa williams, Washington Post reporter. I am sitting at home last night watching the coverage and icy members of Congress Describing having tears in there i when i heard about the announcement. Senator harris announced the presidency here in the eight area there was a motion there but this emotion, can you describe how different it is . Based on the people we have been talking to over the past day since this was announced, there is just people being ecstatic. I talked to dr. Cole who was the first black female president of spelman college. She said she was literally jumping for joy. She talked about how this resonated all the way back for generations of all the struggle that black women have gone through in the country biting both racism, sexism and that this was just a wonderful moment and they were basking in it. Reporter as we start the new academic year, i think about all the children in grade school and high school and college and especially for those black women who are now out of cult and maybe trying to launch their own business. What does this moment mean, even though there has not been a full victory yet, for this biden harris ticket. What does this mean seeing Kamala Harris on this democratic ticket for those women outside of politics, you think . I think for women outside of politics, it is again, another milestone. Another as one woman who i interviewed a few weeks ago for a story about this described it, another dent in that cemented ceiling. She talked about how for black women, again, women of color who have to contend with both racism and sexism, it can be so much harder to break through. I think women will look at this and say, i too can be whatever you want to be and do whatever i want to do and pursue my dreams. And that it works out. Like you said, we have to see how it turns out in the end. But certainly it is an incredible moment because she is one of only two black women who have ever been elected to the u. S. Senate. There has yet been a black woman elected governor. This is a big moment and will resonate for women outside of politics who have dreams and aspirations and who are looking for role models. Reporter you know, if there is a victory on this ticket, there is that debate about biden picking a safe bet. That this was a safe choice. Some can argue yes but some could argue no. You are putting a woman of color on a National Ticket. A woman from california let alone, who grew up in the bay area and was born in oakland. Is this a safe bet or not . No. No safe bets in politics at all. I do think that it is a moment of affirmation. It does recognize that black women are really the backbone of the Democratic Party. They consistently, particularly in national elections, have consistently supported democratic and progressive candidates. In the 2016 campaign, at least 94 present of black women supported Hillary Clinton. A slight majority of black women supported donald trump. , so it is not safe in that sense. I do think in the sense that it does give impetus and a reason for a lot of black women who felt like their contributions to the party have not been recognized. It does give them a reason to get out and vote. So, i think in that sense, you know, maybe one could argue that it is a choice that will motivate that very important part of the base in a way that might not have happened had he gone in a different direction. Reporter three moment have been on the National Ticket prior to this one. And they went zerothree and that those elections. We will have to see what happens with another woman on a Major Party Ticket. I appreciate your time. Thank you. One person who is benefiting from joe bidens pick is maya rudolph. The saturday night live alum frequently returns to the show to play senator harris. She found out about the news when she was in a Panel Discussion with other comedians. Biden chose,. He did . Did that just come through . This could literally be not more perfect timing. I was literally segueing into this next with a question. They teased that maya rudolph would be very busy soon. She said she loves any chance to return to her old something grounds is what she likes. A homicide on the ucsf nss campus. An attacker is shown on Surveillance Videos.

Reporter the first day of online Distance Learning school. Teachers are welcome back for this new and Unusual School year. We spoke to a parent who thought it was a good idea for most teachers to do remote instruction from their respective classrooms. She described the frustration many working parents are feeling right now having to manage the bulk of their childrens education and school work for them at home. Its hard i have a special needs student who needs probably more help than other students. And its been hard because i have to go to work and it is just tough. Up until yesterday most of san jose unified educators were being required to teach from their empty classrooms instead of their homes with just a few exceptions and many teachers raised health and safety concerns on having to share campuses with other adults. Yesterday the School District reach an agreement with the san jose Teacher Union to allow teachers to teach from home if they want to. And they are also allowed to bring underage children with them to classrooms while they are working. At least one teacher told us this morning that she actually preferred doing online Distance Learning instruction from her classroom because she said her wifi connection at home just is not reliable. A new kind of Childcare Program is popping up around the bear providing a place where children can participate in distancelearning in a structured environment that the programs are a substitute for school to help working parents while School Campuses are they are loved under the states daycare guidance as long as they adhere to the required maximum of 12 students per group. In contra costa county, the skyhawks Youth Sports Program is creating a new full date learning camp after emailing parents to ask how they can help. Lets talk about the weather. Not often we can use this phrase but soon steve, its not the heat, its the humidity. Here in the bay area. Took some might be saying that by friday and saturday. Because there is higher clouds coming in not today but i think by tomorrow afternoon into friday. Inland temperatures will be bumping up and thats going to give us not only hotter temperatures but an increase in the humidity and it has been my experience that we dont handle that well here west southwest breeze at 50s and 60s for the temperatures now. Bug is there but getting wiped out. The system that drop down yesterday gave us a big cooldown. But thats it. The cooler air yesterday is on its way up in the high in the four corners is building in but has not had tropical clouds with it. This time it looks like there will be some starting to filter in from the remains of Tropical Storm elia. 60s, 70s and 80s and some low 90s popping appeared warmer today and it might last into the weekend but early next week along with the heat and some higher clouds.
