Caller good morning. It sounds like the weather is planning a major role. Specifically about gusting winds. Caller absolutely we are expecting 50 m. P. H. South wind that will not only hamper our efforts as it continues to press the fire further to the north. Can you tell us about those communities with these evacuations are their homes in danger . Caller touloumme city and several of these area homes have been under advisory with contingency lines. Inside and outside of the communities. We continue to bring more equipment and Fire Fighters as the fire does make it there we do have a plan. Just to give people an understanding of the massive sense of this fire. It is about the size of the city of chicago is that correct . Caller absolutely, it is the 15th largest in recorded history. And also one of the struggles that we have with a fire this size is unstable weather pattern. And it makes it iraq. With extreme fire behavior. Deftly, challenging in the last couple of days. Today, we have 2400 firefighters battling with remote areas and working hard. Daniel, one last question, what are we looking at as far as the next couple of days for the weather . Caller hopefully, the wind will subside after today it has been one of the biggest challenges. Nearly 2900 firefighters, as a correction we have a really working towards containment and putting a stop towards this massive fire. And with the warm temperatures, the typical weather the we see this time of year is not ideal for fight fighting Fire Fighters. Thank you, daniel. Let us checkin with janu. Janu fog half and coastal drizzle. As we go for this afternoon we are looking for mainly sunny conditions and popup showers but mainly greasy. And even slightly cooler than what we saw yesterday with me breezy. Some sunshine and a bit of a warm up for the rest of the work week. Here is for temperatures are starting. Mid 60s in San Francisco oakland. San jose, and currently in livermore. 60 degrees in santa rosa as for go for this afternoon, slightly cooler temperatures but still decent with 80s inland. And for the east bay in the valleys we are looking at low 80s to pittsburgh, antioch. Low mid 70s for the east bay shore. And topping out at 67 degrees in ocean beach. With a mixture of 70s and 80s in the north bay. However, these cooler temperatures are because of this system to the north of us. Up showers possible but it is really just that when and that is mainly going to beat the system component. We have been talking about the bay bridge for several months. And what about the politics . Joining us now is analyst michael yaki. It seems like governor jerry brown has backed away from the grand gala. They are going to perhaps have a ceremony but Governor Brown is not going to show up but lt. Gov gavin newson. I studio guest i think that is appropriate. And i have a feeling that this is very subdued. I think that governor jerry brown is sending a message that how much of a celebration are going to have . This was much over budget. And it is not really the perfect bridge it has to be retrofitted and instead, to me they are putting a gorgeous c clamsp. But it is enormousc clamps. Fbut apparently, the difficulties that they have been having. Lt. Gov. Gavin newson is going to be there but what about what who else is going to be there . Studio guest whether or not they want to invite but at the same time the mayor did have a role in the delay. In terms of Treasure Island that he supported i remember when i was on the board i thought that one of three going to get a bridge . We eventually got the pete wilson onramp. It was much more expensive and now, that is my next question what are the tolls are going to go up but by how much . Studio guest i think that with all things, the tolls, with perhaps a 1 increase. There are going to be other areas that they are going to be looking at as well. This is a great bridge, we hope. But there are other areas that we need to look at as well. Definitely and how about the yosemite fire. With all of this new information, the big worry is the and San Francisco utility power. Studio guest there are three different power houses and one of them is the hetch hetchy and the cherry lake that are inside the fire area right now. The problem is not so much the Water Quality as is the fire going to take of the infrastructure of the power lines. Basically, it gives the San Francisco the ability to buy spot power on the open market if they lose power. Meet the needs of the infrastructure. For the airport, or highspeed rail, not exactly the small customer. However, it is important to give the city to purchase extra power and get reimbursed for it on the open market.

Top stories we are followingin just a week the rim fire has become one of the largest active wildfires in the county and one of the largest fires in california history. I want to show you just how fast this fire has spread. This is an overhead google earth view of Yosemite National park. The rim fire started to the west of the park, last saturday, here along highway 120. The red area that you see here is the perimeter of the fire on monday, when about 10 thousand acres had burned. Heres how the fire looked on tuesday when 16 thousand acres were lost. Heres the fire on wednesday when it had doubled in size and heres the fire on thursday. On friday the fire just exploded in size and entered Yosemite National park. It also grew to the west. And heres how the fire looked on saturday morning. Its burned about 125 thousand acres. About 200 square miles. Now i want to focus on two areas. Nasa also collects data on wildfires and they can pinpoint hot spots using satellites and weather stations. So lets add in that data and you can see that nasa is seeing hotspots along the perimeter of the fire. The area in the middle has already burned so the active fire is along the edges. Now i want to focus on two areas. To the east, the fire is burning inside yosemite near cherry lake and lake eleanor. A little further east the fire has come within two miles of the hetch hetchy reservoir. Hetch hetch is San Franciscos main water supply and theres also a hydroelectric plant.

A possible chemical attack in syria is building. Joining us now is michael yaki to talk about the conflict in syria. World leaders from president obama to David Cameron in inland to even the pope. They have all been talking about this and the big question now what . Studio guest i think the problem is that they do not know exactly what to do. This situation, where there have been some instances documented of london donbut limd but this has massive casualties. Several children impacted with graphic footage. It is shocking. Studio guest the big issue for the United States is that howd you respond. And even with chemical weaponry what is the answer . Is it going to be aid, factions, or a missile. With the joint chiefs of staff to send a letter saying that we are really do not want to intervene. Because we do not know who is going to win plus we do not want to be on the wrong side. What is crazy is the fact that he has used Chemical Warfare and unless we are able to speak with the opposition groups. And there are many. And it is going to be and mean very little for us to even create more chaos and less control over a country that has so many such close proximity to israel, jordan. Israel says there has to be some type response but theyre not saying exactly what it would recommend. That is the conundrum that the president finds himself. Studio guest sometimes i the that what the president is as terms of military intervention is you have to get your act together. We have to make sure that we have to a better command. We could do a coast of a zero tight intervention and take out aircraft and bombing. And if we wanted to. But what does that get us . He essentially, when you have other countries involved, with saudi arabia, yemen, they have to get together and then we can act. We have to need to get assurance for the right reasons. To get the right result not just for the american people. Because were going to be putting americans lives in harms way but also for the regions in the area as well. On one hand, other has to be a reaction, some type of response. Nobody seems to be clear what type of response that should be. And also, it has to be, now it cannot wait. Studio guest the easy way out is to simply flip a switch and to send a send amissile. But that would be the somewhat minimal reaction that we do and say that we reacted. However, that does not really get us anywhere. How to get them to stop using Chemical Warfare in the future. And also when this regimen will fall apart and hopefully it inevitably will. The big question is that was the reaction to our response that we will do michael, thank you. And also,still ahead on the kron four morning news. Say goodbye to gifts. On facebook that is.
