In fact from today through tomorrow, another 100 record highs are possible. A lot of them september records and some alltime record heat. 123 in palm springs. Fresno, 112 degrees. Climate change took a run of the mill heat wave and made it into a remarkable heat wave. Watch this front, this is more trouble because as the front heads south it will cool down temperatures but infuse dry and windy weather into california. Were fighting a lot of fires right now and as the wind weaves through the canyons we will see gusts of 40 and 50 miles an hour and the possibility of out of control wildfires. Look at this ridge of heat across the west. And watch it break down very quickly. Temperatures will drop around 60 degrees in 18 hours in places like denver, even amarillo down to 35 degrees.

Reporter on the hundredth night of protests, most of them peaceful, demonstrators agai gathered in a Portland Park for what started out as a lawful rally. chanting but it quickly escalated. Portland police expected the crowd of hundreds was marching to their east precinct and soon after, they called it a riot. This remains a riot.

We have a constitutional right to assemble peacefully on public property and as long as that right is there we will keep showing up. As long as they are allowed to declare it a riot or Unlawful Assembly because they dont want us somewhere on public property that we are allowed to be on, we will keep showing up. Reporter this is the area where most of the clashes took place last night but in the daytime there are kids playing, riding their bikes.

Amidst demonstrations across the country, democratic Vice President ial candidate Kamala Harris responded in an interview to attorney general bill barrs recent comments saying he does not believe there are two justice systems for black and white americans. I think that donald trump and bill barr are spending full time in a different reality. The reality of America Today is what we have seen over generations and frankly since our inio which is we dha two s n america. There are few disparities in our country based on race. It does us no good if we want to solve those disparities to pretend they dont exist. Yuccas this comes nearly a week after barr said it was a false narrative to say there is an epidemic of cops shooting unarmed black men. The white house is on the defense today as more inflammatory stories from a soon to be released memoir by a trump insider were leaked to the press. This as Democratic Leaders and the administration got together for an increasingly rare bipartisan agreement. Heres bofta yimam.

So whether it is one trillion or one and a half trillion, again lets not get caught on a number. Lets agree on things. Reporter after spending much of the last three days fending off reports he disparage veterans, the president is now facing attacks from one of his former lawyers michael cohen. The former trump insider plans to release a memoir about his work for the president tuesday. Cohen made several allegations in the book, obtained by cbs news, including that trump made overt and covert attempts to get russia to interfere in the 2016 election. And calls trump a cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a con man. In 2018 cohen pleaded guilty to financial and Campaign Finance crimes. And lying to congress about his involvement in an effort to build a trump tower in moscow during the last president ial campaign. The white house is calling cohens book fan fiction and says cohen has lost all credibility. And campaign 2020 continues on as both candidates will visit shanksville, pennsylvania on friday to mark the anniversary of september 11. No word yet if their appearances will overlap.

This is for trump 2020 reporter as new cases continue to rise in at least 27 states, so does the pressure to find a viable vaccine with americas toughest season just ahead. Were heading into the fall and winter when we would expect a respiratory pathogen like a coronavirus to start spreading more aggressively. Reporter on face the nation former f. D. A. Commissioner Scott Gottlieb says scientists will not be hindered by political pressure to expedite a vaccine before the election. The likelihood that we will have a vaccine for widespread use in 2020 is extremely low. I think we need to think of that as largely a 2021 event. Reporter but Public Confidence in a vaccine is another issue. A new cbs news poll Shows Americans are growing more skeptical. Just 21 of voters in the United States say that they would take a vaccine as soon as possible. More than half say they would wait to see what happens and another 21 say that they would never take a vaccine. Another interesting thing about this poll is when a vaccine is developed, an overwhelming 75 of americans say that they believe the next president should take it publicly to prove that its safe.

Now at 6 00, narrow escapes in the southern sierra where the creek fire is burning out of control and pumping out astonishing amounts of smoke. Good news is todays heat was the peak of this heat wave. The bad news is i dont think youre going to notice too much difference over the next few days. With an ill wind about to blow this way, will your power stay on . And if it doesnt, what does that mean for everybody working and learning from home . Because we work virtually, and without electricity, i couldnt get online. Good evening. Im brian hackney. Im juliette goodrich. Lets get right to the headlines. The big question everyone is wondering in this searing heat, will my power stay on . At this moment, its looking good. A statewide flex alert is in effect until 10 00 p. M. But according to what were seeing on the cal iso website right now, demand is still sitting below the available capacity. The explosive creek fire burning out of control in the southern sierra is not helping matters. Weve learned its taken a power plant off line. If has also officially pushed california into the worst wildfire year on record. In terms of acres burned, more than 2 million so far in areas seven times the size of los tandes. So i much smoke and ash, its easily visible from space, and on the ground, almost nothing is visible. Despite that and somewhat surprisingly, most of the smoke choking the bay area right now is not coming from the creek fire, but that could change when the winds change
