Breezy as yesterday. The Mountain Meadow fire real quick. West wind at the surface and you go up a couple hundred feet and look how much faster the winds are blowing. 30 to nearly 40 Miles Per Hour. That is a concern and will continue to be in the afternoon hours. For the crews fire, wind never really have been a major concern and they wont be today. They are five to eight and now may get up to ten to 15 this afternoon. With more on the fires, lets get back to kumasi.

Flames have scorched 5,400 acres since it started friday afternoon and dozens of people have been evacuated. Cal fire says the fire has destroyed at least one structure and is 20 contained.

Now to a story a lot of you are talking about on social media this morning because it affects so many. A new order that would affect internati International Students in the bay area and beyond this fall. We work to build a better bay area. Abc7 News Reporter Julian Glover is live with the details of this new rule that is coming from i. C. E. Julian . Hi, good morning, reggie. Yet another dilemma for anxious students to have to juggle here. This new rule singles out International Students studying online on a visa. If their college goes all online in the fall they will have to eave the country or go to inperson classes. I. C. E. Made the announcement when schools like harvard decided to make all Classes Online for the fall to protect students during the pandemic. The most shocking part of the new rules is even if an outbreak happened in the middle of the fall semester and forced Students Program to move online, they would still have to leave the country or attempt to transfer to a university offering inperson classes mid semester. Imagine how difficult that would be. President trump tweeting out his support for the measure saying colleges must reopen in the fall and overnight on social media weve seen a dprup of uc Berkeley Students trying to escape the rules here and creating an inperson, one credit studentrun class for those International Students so d not be forced touniversi. Mon students all across the country, again. Another incentive for College Campuses to reopen in the fall despite those potential Public Health risks that were seeing out there. So, as you mentioned, reggie, a big one that so many students are talking about online this morning. Reporting live for now, Julian Glover, abc7 news. That puts everyone in such a hard position.

In the bay area this gets a little confusing because they just added marin to that list although contra costa is back on the list and santa clara is off. Im even confused.

Napa county may soon have to be added to our graphic of a place that has to roll back reopenings beginning on thursday because of a jump in coronavirus cases there. That means Indoor Dining will end. Tasting rooms will close. Both indoor and Outdoor Service at bars and breweries will be put on hold. The new restricks run through july 30th and the state could extend it. In the south bay, there is confusion over restrictions and reopening plans in santa clara county. The county is officially off the states watchlist. Last thursday, county Public Health officials announced a new reopening plan to take shape on deni the uns requestoped a hain a variance to moveahead. The end result of this is were all going to close out. All Small Businesses are going to die because of whatever issues the state and the county has. And were the casualties. County Officials Say theyre continuing talks with the state about what should happen next. Now an abc7 news live desk update.

Protesters gathered to demand arrests after several people allegedly tried to lynch a black man over the weekend. Its unclear how that woman is doing now. The investigation is ongoing and the mayor has not made a statement saying he doesnt have enough information. Now on abc7 news live desk update. At the live desk, we have the details on a new effort to organize an independent thirdparty investigation into the death of elijah mcclain. Officials in aurora, colorado, say the job is too big for one person so they are creating a team comprised of local and national members. A list of candidates will be ready in about two weeks on july 20th. Mcclain was an unarmed black man who died in Police Custody last year. Officers had him in a chokehold. Someone called 911 reporting someone suspicious. Mcclain was walking home after buying iced tea and at this point none of the officers in the incident have been charged. Her remains were found in texas. The woman charged with being an accomplice in her killing made her first appearance in court. She said she helped dispose of her body. Family said that robinson had been sexually harassing guillen. Robinson killed himself last week as investigators closed in and guillen disappeared back in april. Her family says the army didnt take it seriously. We need the congressional investigation. Im not just going to stay grieving in my room because i know vanessa wouldnt want that. She wants justice. If convicted, aguilar faces up to 20 years in prison. Ou theth of Vanessa Guillen is spreading across the country. Gathered with a caravan and vigil for her. No one who was there knew her personally but many people feel connected to her story. A former reservist and richmond resident organized this event. Im a lutino woman serving in the army and i feel like they failed her and fight and make a movement to honor her name everywhere. Really big stigma with reporting. I think that were scared because we see over and over that nothing is done. Some veterans say there needs to be more accountability when it comes to the militarys investigation into guillens death.
