Good morning, thank you for waking up with us. It is friday morning, july 10th. Im pam cook. We want to check in with Steve Paulson because we are keeping an eye on fire season and the weather and it is certainly hot. I can feel warmer air coming through the window. Not cooler here. When milo doesnt get below 60, that is really warm. 60. So it is not believed below that. Fog bank especially on the sonoma coast and marin coast going down the coast. Yesterday was just the opposite. But it is only impacting areas near the coast. But the city has actually cooled off below average which is different. Bigger coastal fog make but it wont help inland areas. 90s to 100. 53 in San Francisco, the average low is 54. 63 livermore and san jose, brentwood at 70, king curtis close, sfo, pacifica and the city, 56, will keep them cool to my but in the temple have note problem warming up. It will be pretty hot here. But near the coast, near average temperatures well above again. Over to sell, you still w
67 in concord. 52 and pacifica. The oakland airport, they have clouds. A bigger fog bank near the coast. 60s, and 70s inland. It will be 90s and 80s. Over to sal, we will see if he focuses on 580 now. That is right, we have slow traffic on 580 and 205 this morning. Westbound 580 and 205 had an arrow because of an earlier grass fire here, that was slowing traffic. It will also be slow again in this area. Eastbound 580 is open. It looks like the lanes are open westbound. You will be seeing slow traffic as you drive through. The lanes are open after an earlier grass fire. Here at the bay bridge, it is light. Lightly traveled into San Francisco. Traffic is moving well all the way into the city. Lets go back to the headlines. Interstate 580 is open, at least it is opening at the ultima pass after an overnight fire near northglenn and carol road, in the livermore area. Before midnight, a pickup truck crashed into the Center Divide and had burst into flames. The flames had spread to brush tha
Oakland 56 in San Francisco and 59 in san jose. Im looking at mild to warm temperatures around the bay area. Well have those coming up in just a bit back to the news. Thanks a lot. Lets start with the coronavirus the cdc is sounding the alarm that the number of cases in the u. S. Might be much greater than we know there was show you map which illustrates now the rise in cases. In the past week compared to the week before and you can see actually california has improved. It has been in the orange and even in the red indicating anywhere from 10 to 50 . Increase from week to week now were just in the yellow which indicates a steady rise but not an alarming one. But if you look at the total numbers across the country weve got now more than a 142,000 recorded deaths with more than 3. 9 million infections reported so far to our area. In the wake of the rising number of cases and the dropping poll numbers for the president he appears to be changing his tune. During his first covid19 briefing
Work and how communities respond will look different this year. Already california has seen more fires this year compared to last year. We have the challenges ahead, and there are a lot of them. Reporter cal fire responded to more than 600 fires just last week. Getting on them fast, keeping the acreage down is the goal. Because the pandemic complicates everything. I would not know where to go right now, if that happened again. Reporter frederick lost his home when the tubs fire roared into santa rosa. He evacuated with his grandchildren that night to a packed evacuation center. We sat down and it got crowded and more crowded as we sat. There were a lot of people there. We only stayed about four or five hours. Reporter a scenario that wont work now. It may be that we dont put you in a congregant shelter situation. We may be putting you into hotels. Reporter hotels, dorms, scattered locations, the priority will be social distance. Box mills instead of buffets at a Temperature Check upon
Once you get used to the fog and the onshore wind, if you do not get it it is a huge difference. There is not much of a breeze, but there are cold temperatures near the coast. The city is at 52. That is to below average. It is hot inland. 100 degrees on the temperatures today. Theres a bigger fog bank. San Francisco Bay is that 51 degrees. That is cold water for this time of year. The fog comes flying down the coast. That is leaving the city below average. That is not something we say all the time, but when the 51 that make a lot of sense. Write about average for this sa 52 and sfo. 66 degrees in concord. Inland, it is going to be hot. 90s to 100 degrees. By the coast it is going to be cooler today. You do not have to go far to find heat. Lets get over to sal, lets see if there is anything new out there. Sir . We have better news on 580. We had a problem there. I will tell you about that in a second. I want to show you the bay bridge. You can see that traffic at the toll plaza is looki
