Concord in livermore low 70s for you we have a nice little steady breeze pushing in so we are cooling off this evening, a nice touch to that. A hot weather that weve had otherwise look at these heat advisories, excessive heat warnings now in effect on the peninsula to for areas of San Mateo County San Francisco county. The only area that is not impacted by excessive heat warnings today. Now these do continue for one more day on into tomorrow so today and tomorrow, excessive heat warnings meaning temperatures in excess of a 100 degrees. Some pretty warm nights in these areas too. As for today, youre going to see a much less unsettled day. What that means much less chance of any sort of Thunderstorm Development couple days ago, you remember the storms we had sunday morning yesterday we had a rolling through the north bay right
Putting that on hold for a week. We were just about to start it now on this friday to bring you, but were going put it on hold to bring you coverage of the california wildfire. We hope that you join us next friday when were planning to spend a full hour talking about how the coronavirus pandemic has changed the sports world. Thats recreation and how people are having fun, and how its affected our own personal fitness. Let me brick in mike here. We were trying to buy our older son a new Mountain Bike because his legs are a mile long. My husband got the alert that the bike was back in stock, and it was sold out before he would pay for it in the cart. I have been saying that we have been biking a lot over the last four months, and were not alone. I see them out there at the bike parks and is just rolling around the neighborhood. Look forward to that newscast. As of right now, we have an emergency situation going on in northern california. People have died and hundreds of homes destroyed.
Especially up in the north bay today that moisture plume is sitting a bit further out into the coast. What that means is areas further north bolton mendocino counties will see the opportunity of an isolated thunderstorm. Well we really take a step back from that in the bay area today so worrying less about any sort of heavy rain or thunderstorm but still having to worry about the heat that we are going to be seeing. 80s 90s and triple digits back in play with livermore concord antioch at one of 3 to 106 degrees. Napa and santa rosa also triple digits and upper 80s in hayward mideighties in oakland, San Francisco right at 80 degrees today. Ive got more details on what to expect right where youre at this forecast. Still ahead daria. Thanks a lot john lets get to the breaking news now for big wildfires are burning across the east bay and in the north bay this morning. They were sparked likely by lightning. Lets take a look at a map that shows you where these 4 fires are burning yeah right
Now lets focus in on the czu lightning complex fire. You can see the outline on your map its in red. It shows the outline of the fire and you can tell that its spread now to the coastline. New this morning that fire has turned deadly as firefighters discovered the body of a 70 yearold man in the last chance area of Santa Cruz County kron fours will tran live at the Cal Fire Base Camp thats a scotts valley. He has the latest for us well. Marty they just wrapped up the News Conference a little bit more information on that man who died his name not being released. But we do know that he was found near his vehicle in the attempt of leaving the fire so he was trying to rescue himself but overcome, but either the smoke or the flames so he was not inside his home at the time and thats when they believe that he was desperately trying to flee unfortunately he ran out of time and the fires just simply overcame him as far as the condition of the fire still very much burning out of control at this
The front lines in the overnight hours thankfully they get to rest a little bit as theyre throwing as much as they possibly can at this fire 1500 firefighters with more firefighters on the way from out of state. This fire they are making progress we did learn from a News Conference earlier this morning that containment numbers now sitting at 13 containment and that is up from 8 in the overnight hours, however the acreage did go up from 74. To 78,000 and the number of homes or structures destroyed sitting at 231. Destroyed or damaged were talking about that going up and up especially since the fires are happening in a remote rugged area thats. Hard to get to for the firefighters, but we do know that the one fatality that one man who did die that he was trying to leave the area because he was not found inside his home instead he was found near his car. So that leads investigators to believe that he was trying to flee the area that was simply overcome by the flames or the smoke as far as
