Rosemary, good morning. We are looking at a commute that is busy, especially at the toll plaza. You will see a 25 to 30minute wait before you make it on to the span. The traffic is moderately heavy on the upper deck. In problems on the lower deck of the bay bridge. San mateo bridge that traffic is moving along nicely as you head out to the highrise until you get out to the actual bridge. But whats happening is a lot of the slow traffic is before you get onto the span. So plan for that. Lets talk about the south bay. Not too bad. There is some slow traffic on 85, 101, and 280, but it seems just a little bit lighter than usual right now. 7 02. Lets go back to the desk. There has been another nightclub shooting in florida. Police in fort myers say 19 people were shot. Two have died. This attack happened during a teen party at club blu. There are reports this morning a 12yearold girl is among those hurt. Many of the surviving victims were taken to hospitals, but three people remain hospitalized. A woman says her daughter and friend were at the party and started to run away when they heard the first shots. Her daughter was not hurt, but the daughters friend was hurt. She wasnt so lucky as my daughter. She got hit in the leg. Luckily, just her leg. But i think its sad that they have to run for cover. Police are questioning three people and looking for another who may have been involved in the attack. Its not clear yet what started the violence. This shooting comes weeks after an attack at an orlando nightclub about 200 miles north of fort myers. 49 people died and 53 others were hurt in that attack. Time is now 7 03.

One of the things that they just let all the firefighters know is that, as you mentioned, 11,000 acres had burned as of last night. They just updated that number and now we are at nearly 15,000 acres that have been burned. Lets go to video of this wildfire that is still burning out of control south of carmel and point lobos. It is still just at 5 containment. We got updated numbers on the amount of structures that have been destroyed. 20 homes have been destroyed and two out buildings. Calfire is concerned because nearly 1700 structures are still threatened. This fire started friday morning near the garapata state park. Because of the humidity and drought its burning dry brush more quickly. A big challenge is access. Its taking them an hour to two hours to actually hike into the fire. Also, the weather is very unpredictable. Here is what a fire captain told us in the last hour. It kind of does its own thing because we are dealing with Mother Nature. Right now during the morning hours, it kind of blows the fire one way. Then once this virgin layer goes out, the fire starts going the other way. It makes it difficult to fight because we are trying to compete with Mother Nature on how shes gonna blow this thing. Reporter calfire is using all the help it can get. There are 1400 personnel here. Strike teams, as i mentioned, from the bay area are providing support. Calfire has been using air tankers and helicopters. There are numerous areas that have been evacuated.

One death has been reported in that fire zone, but we dont know if its directly tied to the fire. In just a few hour the Democratic National convention will get underway in philadelphia. The democrats were hoping to show unity in a more positive vision for the country. Many say in sharp contrast to last weeks Republican Convention. A scandal may have ended those hopes. [ crowd chanting ]. Supporters of Bernie Sanders took to the streets of philadelphia over the weekend saying the convention is a funeral for the Democratic Party.

An uber driver is accused of sexually assaulting a passenger and now police in East Palo Alto want to know if there are more victims. Ktvus Christien Kafton in palo alto getting reaction. What are you hearing . Reporter yeah, that driver has been arrested and female uber passengers are speaking out this morning. First, a little bit of background on this case. On saturday afternoon, East Palo Alto Police Arrested 59 yearold Rodolf Vjerdha after a Woman Told Police that he pressured her to sit next to him in the front seat of her of his car, rather, during a ride to her apartment friday evening. The woman says she took uber pool. There should have been additional passengers in the vehicle. Instead, she says she overheard the driver telling those other passengers he would not be picking them up. She said he locked the doors. He touched her leg and kissed her on that ride. She says she demanded to be let out of the car but the driver refused to stop. Once she arrived at her home he asked to come up to her apartment, but she refused. After several attempts to get out of the car she was able to get free and into her home. She notified the police and officers arrested that suspect after spotting his vehicle back in palo alto on saturday. Women passengers this morning told me that safety is always in the back of their minds when they hop into a rideshare. Actually, it is a concern. I mean, i work at night. I take uber every three times a week, and its scary. With uber you never know who can pick you up. And just looking at a picture, it doesnt give you enough background on, like, who the person is or, like, you know, where they live. At least have information about the person when an emergency comes up. Reporter now, we reached out to uber and uber sent us a notification saying the allegations are a clear violation of Company Guidelines and that driver is now banned. Police are reaching out to neighboring agencies here around the East Palo Alto area and they are also looking to see if there are any other previous passengers who might have similar allegations. Christien kafton thank you. Time is now 7 13. Today is supposed to be the first day many ads for sugary drinks in San Francisco have to have a warning on them. But you wont see them. The Beverage Industry is trying to have the law overturned by the court of appeals. And a District Court judge ruled the warning does not have to be in place until the case is heard. The higher court is likely to speed up the hearing. We dont know when the court will hear the appeal that the Chicago White sox were planning to wear throwback uniforms on saturday but one of their pitchers had another idea. The Team Announced they suspended pitcher chris sales for destroying several of the uniforms that looked like the ones warn in 1976. He didnt like them because they have collars. They were going to be worn during a hot and humid night. Sales fiveday suspension will cost him a quarter Million Dollars in sal. Reporter he has been fined 13,000, which is the cost of those destroyed uniforms. White sox management says part of what makes sales great is his passion but wouldnt say any more than that. Sal, you are watching the roads and the bridges. How do they look . They look okay. Its not a terrible commute, dave. Dave and gasia. Its not great either. We have some slow traffic out there. We are starting in east contra costa county. Its slow in pittsburg as you drive west on highway 4, which is not unusual. When you get to the bay bridge toll plaza you will see stop andgo traffic as well. This is about a 15minute delay. It has capped off at that. It has not become worse, so were thinking that today is going to be a moderate commute day. In the south bay we have seen some fill in on 280, 85 and 101. Nothing major. I want to switch to the altamont pass. 580 is better at livermore and the dublin interchange. Lets go to rosemary filling in for steve. Thank you. Good morning to you.

The Democratic National Convention Begins today in philadelphia after dnc chairwoman debbie Wasserman Schultz announced she will step down after the release of controversial emails that appear to show the dnc favored Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the primaries. Caroline, no doubt Hillary Clinton and tim kaine are going to keep the focus, at least try, squarely on the convention itself . Reporter that is their goal today, gasia. They want us focused on the theme of united together. How far, the big talk on the Convention Floor even before they gavel in is once again that clinton is under pressure from Bernie Sanders supporters. I feel that the democratic nominee ought to be Bernie Sanders. I think the clinton people stole it. Reporter protesters take to the streets of philadelphia sunday angry over leaked emails showing Democratic Party officials were supporting Hillary Clinton over senator Bernie Sanders. Democratic National Committee chairwoman debbie Wasserman Schultz announced shell step down. Republicans were quick to react. Todays events show, i think, really what an uphill climb the democrats are facing this week in unifying their party and starting off the week by losing your Party Chairman over a longstanding bitterness. Reporter the democrats are trying to keep the focus on their convention where preparations have wrapped up. Clinton has been showing off her new Vice President ial pick virginia senator tim kaine who plans to take on donald trump. When i see this, you know, crooked hillary or see the lock her up, its just ridiculous. Reporter clinton says she is going to focus on attacking trumps record and will avoid responding to his insults. I dont call him anything. And im not going to engage in that kind of insult fest that he seems to drive on. Reporter a Spokesman Says the emails dont show that the nominating process is rigged, but he called the emails completely unacceptable. Gasia, back to you. Thank you. Now to the republican side. Donald trump now says if he becomes president , he would expand his proposed ban on muslims entering the united states. Six months ago he called for a temporary ban on muslims entering the country. Then he seemed to backtrack a bit during his speech at the republican National Convention. Now he says he has plans to expand the ban to include anyone coming from countries compromised by terrorism, including france which he says has been infiltrated by terrorists. People were so upset when i used the word muslim. We are making it territorial. We have nations and i am going to be coming out over the next few weeks with a number of the places.

Back here at home Oakland Police are getting help from several other agencies in a search for whoever fired several shots at a Police Supervisor saturday night. The officer was driving an suv when she was involved in a collision at 73rd avenue and weld streets. Moments later someone walked up to the car and started shooting at her. She was not hit. One man we talked to heard the crash from inside his home. When i poked my head out i saw the police car was right here on the corner. It had hit the signal button and then you just hear a gunshot.

Things will turn around tomorrow when the heatup begins to make a return to the bay area. We do have a trough over california for today.

Giving you a view here first from San Francisco across the bay, the clouds out there across the bay into the east bay this morning over portions of the north bay. The marine layer a little bit thicker than yesterday morning. That onshore breeze a bit stronger and the two combined helping to bring down our temperatures. Temperatures are down this morning by a few degrees. May or may not notice so much. The air quality, we are looking at poor air quality for folks in the inner east bay as well as the Santa Clara Valley area.

I just had a feeling that it might just by looking at some of the signs. This is a look at westbound bay bridge. Not too bad. So it does seem as if its definitely lighter than usual. Also looking at the commute here on the peninsula, southbound 101 is slow through menlo park, but it looks good through redwood city right now. San mateo and dumbarton bridges are okay. Southbound 880 traffic is going to be busy. Lets go to san jose. Northbound 280 traffic is improving on the way up to highway 17. 8 02. Back to the desk. Thank you. We are following developing news out of Monterey County. A fire that broke out this week south of carmel has grown to nearly 15,000 acres. Ktvus janine de la vega joins us live from salinas at the base camp to give us an update on the situation. Reporter mike, fire crews left in the last 30 minutes. You can see behind me there are still some that are left, just going over their game plan for today. They are going to surround this fire and hit it hard because it is just 5 contained. This fire started on friday morning and its burning in and around the state park. We have learned that 20 homes and two out buildings have been destroyed. Several communities are under mandatory evacuation. Calfire says the weather is just unpredictable. They dont know which way the wind is gonna blow, and depending on the heat and the marine layer it could spread north towards the Carmel Highlands and Carmel Valley area. So those communities are being warned that they need to be ready to evacuate if necessary. Here with the marine layer, some of the residents are a little confused on how if he dont see the smoke, they dont smell the smoke, they see the fog, so its hard for them to get that in their head that there is a fire just right around the corner from them. The fire can be right up on them before they know it. Reporter fire Officials Say because of the low humidity and the drought, it is burning dry brush more quickly. Calfire is using all the help they can get. There are 1400 fire personnel here, strike he teams from the bay area also providing support. They met to discuss strategy this morning. Calfire is going to put helicopters and air tankers back up in the air. They will have a lot of heavy equipment on the ground. They are putting bulldozers out to pave the way in this steep terrain area. Its taking some crews an hour to two hours to hike in to an area where the fire is because access is becoming a really big problem. In the next hour we are going to try to get a little bit closer so we can hopefully see some spoke and flames or see any crews possibly in action. We will bring that to you in the next hour. No doubt that air attack will be critical as you talk about that steep terrain. Thank you for that live report. In Los Angeles County a brushfire raging in the rugged mountains of Santa Clarita valley has destroyed 18 homes and is threatning hundreds of others. A mandatory Evacuation Order in place for 1,500 People Living in the sand canyon area. There has been one death reported in the fire, but it is not clear if that fatality is directly related to the fire. Here in the bay area crews have contained an overnight brushfire burning near highway 4 in contra costa county. The 50acre fire forced the closure of part of the highway late yesterday afternoon. The chp this to stop traffic near Franklin Canyon road for several hours because of downed power lines. Its still unclear whether the power lines caused that fire or if the wires came down because of the fire. An overnight fire has shut down part of foothill road in pleasanton. It started before midnight. Crews are still on the scene watching out for hot spots, and police are advising drivers to avoid the area at least for the next few hours. Time is 8 06. The Democratic National Convention Begins today in philadelphia after dnc chairwoman debbie Wasserman Schultz announced she will step down after the release of controversial emails that appeared to show the dnc favored Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the primaries. Caroline shively living in philadelphia this morning. We wait to see if this is going to be a distraction or a rerailment. Reporter yes. Debbie Wasserman Schultz just addressed delegates from her home state of florida and she was greeted by shouts and boos. I feel the democratic nominee ought to be Bernie Sanders. I think the clinton people stole it. Reporter protesters take to the streets of philadelphia sunday angry over leaked emails showing Democratic Party officials were supporting Hillary Clinton over senator Bernie Sanders. Democratic National Convention chairwoman debbie Wasserman Schultz announced she will step down. Republicans were quick to react. Todays events show, i think, really what an uphill climb the democrats are facing this week in unifying their party and starting off the week by losing your Party Chairman over a longstanding bitterness. Reporter the democrats are trying to keep the focus on their convention are where preparations have wrapped up. Clinton has been showing off her new Vice President ial pick virginia senator tim kaine, who plans to take on donald trump. When i see this, you know, crooked hillary or the lock her up, its just ridiculous. It is ridiculous. Reporter clinton says she is going to focus on attacking trumps record and will avoid responding to his insults. I dont call him anything. And im not going to engage in that kind of insult fest that he seems to thrive on. Reporter sanders will address his delegates privately earlier today, and then he is one of the headliners speaking on the Convention Floor tonight. It seems as though Bernie Sanders supporters may make more of a show at the Democratic National convention than we saw them during the Republican Convention last week . Reporter it certainly is the flip of what we thought a few weeks ago, gasia. The republicans not many protesters. They made two dozen arrests. Police here made two dozen arrests yesterday. There are a lot of angry bernie supporters out there and they will be marching through the streets today. Okay. Caroline shively live in philadelphia.

There has been another nightclub shooting in the state of florida. Police in fort myers say two people were killed and at least 17 others injured after someone started firing shots in the parking lot of club blu. One of the injured people is a 12yearold girl. The club was hosting a teen party. The mother of a girl at that party says she knows her daughter could have been one of the people shot. Her dodging bullets and running, dropping between cars. Its ridiculous that these kids have to go through this. They cant enjoy themselves because you have other people that have criminalistic minds and they just want to terrorize things. Three people have been taken into custody and are currently being questioned. It is not clear yet what started the violence, but investigators say the shooting was not a terrorist act. The shooting comes weeks after a nightclub shooting in orlando 160 miles away. The orlando shooting was the worst mass shooting in u. S. History with 49 People Killed and 53 others wounded.

Just moments ago we received new information about the latest violent attack in germany. Investigators now say a man from sierra who set off a bomb at a Music Festival in southern germany had pledged allegiance to isis shortly before the attack.

A cooldown in store for your monday. Temperatures are beginning to climb, but we are not as warm as we started yesterday morning. I will have a look at the Current Conditions and what you can except for your afternoon coming up. Coming up. Breaking news into our newsroom. Hours before the official start of the Democratic National convention in philadelphia you see here inside a very quiet Convention Floor, but through the party there is turmoil. At this point the fbi has just confirmed it is investigating a hack involving democrat emails that appear to show that the Democratic Party was supporting Hillary Clinton instead of Bernie Sanders. The fbi itself is involved in the leak of those emails. We will talk more about this through the morning and of course bring you the latest on what is expected to happen in philadelphia starting today. Welcome back to mornings on 2 this monday morning. I am gasia mikaelian. I am mike mibach. Sal castaneda is working a couple accidents right now. First, lets check in with rosemary to see a peek of that monday forecast. Good morning to you. A few peeks of blue out there after starting out with mostly cloudy skies inside the bay, along the coastline. We are beginning to see a little bit of sunshine pull through. Here is a live look there at the Golden Gate Bridge where we still see plenty of fog. I think at the coast we are going to remain with fog for today. The rest of us will be mostly sunny as we get into the second half of your morning, and into the first part of the afternoon. Stormtracker 2. I have a three hour time lapse to show you how the low clouds beginning to thin out some, beginning to retreat. We will be mostly cloudy at the coastline today. Plenty of sunshine elsewhere. Today is a spare the air day. Want to remind you all for this one. As we get into fairfield, 18 miles per hour. That onshore breeze. The cooler air has been with us through the overnight hours and Early Morning hours, and because of it we are looking at temperatures down by several degrees, especially for our inland communities.

Today one of the cooler days. We are actually going to see a rebound as early as tomorrow. Back into tripledigit heat for the inland cities. For those getting ready to hit the highways, sal has your traffic look. Good morning, rosemary. I am working an accident here highway 4 westbound between willow pass 1 and 2, which is basically on the hill here on highway 4 westbound. You can see the fire truck is still blocking part of that lane. Westbound traffic is backing up well into pittsburg. Might be antioch right now. Its a fourvehicle minor injury accident, but the fire truck is still there along with chp giving everyone a little bit of room to work. It looks like the right lane and partially that other lane, looks like a tow truck has arrived on the scene. Things are not going to get better until that cleans up. Meanwhile, down the road 680 is Getting Better because people arent getting through. Lets go to the bay bridge which is completely cleared out getting into San Francisco right now. It would be a good time to do that. Also, we are looking at the commute on 92 and 84 over the peninsula. Not a bad commute. 880 sorry, 101 a little bit slow southbound through menlo park. Now at 8 32 lets go back to the desk. New this morning a car slammed into a north bay Senior Center at about 3 a. M. You see the results and the damage done by that vehicle when Novato Police say the car broke right through the wall of the Margaret Todd Senior Center. At this point police dont know what caused the driver to head off the road and hit the building, but alcohol is a possibility. Police say had the crash happened later in the day, it could have been much worse. Were very fortunate that this happened in the middle of the night and not at 3 p. M. When there would be seniors here enjoying their Community Center and having events, including use events at this facility as well. The driver was the only one in the car. The driver is being treated for minor injuries. An uber driver accused of sexually assaulting a passenger. Police in East Palo Alto want to know if there are more victims. Ktvus Christien Kafton live in East Palo Alto now with reaction to whats happening. Reporter yeah, we just spoke with East Palo Alto police. They say that they did arrest that suspect. He was arrested, taken to jail. He is now out on bail. We talked to female passengers in East Palo Alto this morning. They say this is exactly the reason they are alert every time they get into a rideshare vehicle. It is a concern. I work at night and i take ubers every, like, every like three times a week, and its scary because, i mean, with uber you never know who can pick you up, you know . And just looking at a picture, it doesnt give you enough background on, like, who the person is or, like, you know, where they live or something. At least have information about the person if an emergency comes up. Reporter a little background on this story. On saturday afternoon East Palo Alto Police Arrested 59year old Rodolf Vjerdha after a Woman Told Police he pressured her to sit next to him in the front seat of the car during a ride to her apartment on friday evening. The woman says she took uber pool, meaning there should have been additional passengers. Instead, she says she overheard the driver calling the other passengers and saying he would not be picking them up. She says that he locked the doors, touched her leg and kissed her during that ride. She says she demanded to be let out of the car but the driver refused to stop. Then she says once they arrived at her apartment she says he asked to come up to her apartment, but she refused. She was eventually able to get free and into her home. She called police and officers arrested the suspect after spotting his vehicle back in palo alto on saturday. Police say now they are investigating looking for the possibility of additional victims. The possibility of this driver victimizing another woman in the past that we dont know about is pretty high. We would like to make sure there are no we are victims and encourage other victims to come forward. Reporter now, we also reached out to uber, who says that the allegations are a clear violation of their guidelines. They tell ktvu that that driver is now banned. Christien, uber has the ability to track its drivers. So im assuming the company will go back and look at this drivers previous routes . Reporter police are looking into that. They are looking through that drivers history to see if he has history of doing this with other passengers. They say now that he is not driving, that might have reduced his pool of potential victims. Its a good thing they made this arrest. Thats the reason they need any additional victims if they are out there to come forward. Christien kafton thank you. As we mentioned a few minutes ago, the fbi is investigating hack involving the Democratic National committee emails. The Democratic National convention getting underway in philadelphia today. Angry Bernie Sanders supporters have been marking outside the convention hall. They say the convention is a, quote, funeral for the Democratic Party that followed leaked emails that suggested Party Members clearly favored Hillary Clinton in her battle against sanders during the heated democratic primaries. I think the clinton people stole it. I think the corruption is starting to become more publicly none with the wikileaks and such. The Democratic Party chairman debbie Wasserman Schultz says she plans to step down at the end of the convention, but some democrats say that her resignation should come sooner. Bernie sanders and Michelle Obama are scheduled to speak at the convention today. As Hillary Clinton takes the stage at the dnc with her family, her newly chosen running mate, some people question whether he is the right pick for the party. A former Virginia Governor is aligned with the democratic platform, but some democrats dont think he is progressive enough.
