saw a small flare-up on the hillside behind me that's now out. fire crews will be out here to check hot spots after sun-up. this is only 10% contained. the fire started saturday evening in steep

can get in and out of here quickly. so parents, if you take that way if your kids walk there you may have to find a different route. >> thank you. today san francisco city leaders are gearing up for a big battle with big tobacco. anne makovec is live in the newsroom to explain. >> reporter: san francisco supervisors will reconsiderate flavored tobacco ban they passed in june deciding if they want to put up a fight because it's facing a referendum petition to stop it. that recall petition is almost 34,000 signatures now which means it could be decided by san francisco voters. now, the theory behind this ban is that tobacco products flavored like cherries, vanilla, honey are like candy, a gateway to tobacco products meant to hook kids for life. there's already a federal ban on fruitie and candy flavored cigarettes but in most places other products are allowed. >> big tobacco is a predator and they are guilty of profiling, always looking for new customers to backfill the ones that their products have killed. >> reporter: the ban opens the door for a battle. the city versus big tobacco and local store owners. they say most of their customers are grown adults and that tobacco products account for a lot of their business. this would be an expensive and high-profile campaign for both sides. but the board has two options right now. it can repeal the ordinance or it can put the matter on the june ballot. >> anne, the fight against flavored tobacco has been ramping up across the bay area it seems like. >> reporter: santa clara county outlawed the sale of flavored products in

not? >> it's very much needed in the community. >> and many riders say they arrive on time. many of the shuttles are all- electric but that's led to one downside. drivers can't run the air-

clouds are going to creep back in. not quite this morning. we still have clear skies out there this morning. so that's a big break from the smoky conditions we have. here's what we're now starting to see. our typical weather pattern with the onshore flow. those winds coming from the ocean helping cool us down the past several days we have had this east wind that's been coming through bringing the smoke from the fires across the sierra down right into the bay and that's why it's been hovering. we have some areas at gilroy where the fire is burning that's still seeing smoky skies but when you see these west winds that's going to clear things up. right now it's calmed down at the airport. half moon bay, a little breezy there at 7 miles per hour. we are expecting those winds to pick up about 15 to 20 miles per hour. especially in places like vallejo where the west winds are coming out now at 10. fairfield 17. and here's our air quality forecast for the day. moderate rain. we weren't seeing oranges and reds, unhealthy for most of the bay area the past several days so a lot of people's lungs can now breathe easier. our temperatures a lot cooler. 89 in livermore. 87 concord. 75 for you in vallejo. so no 90s in sight. no triple digits in sight. here's a look at the seven-day forecast. we are getting another drop by the end of the week. we are going to see another low coming through in our inland temperatures reaching normal for this time of the year as we get to friday even saturday. along the bay temperatures upper 70s dropping down to the low 70s tomorrow, upper 60s

rotation for september. this morning thousands of firefighters are on the front lines battling dozens of wildfires across the west including one in gilroy. kpix 5's sandra osborne is live there with the very latest. sandra. >> reporter: good morning. when we first got out here this morning, here in gilroy, we did see one small flare-up beginning to form on the dark hillside behind me that appears to have gone out but i can tell you one thing we're dealing with now is some of the smoke in the air. gilroy police did put out an advisory yesterday. they say the air quality is poor for people living here. the fire started saturday spreading from just five acres to 100 acres. the problem is the steep terrain, loose dirt on a hillside. no structures are threatened. they have been useing air support to keep the fire from spreading. >> it's not right to set off fireworks this time of year with 100-degree weather and dry everywhere. it puts people in danger. that's not right. >> reporter: this fire is one of dozens in the west coast. the mission fire in the sierra has mandatory evacuations in place for certain neighborhoods. right now, crews on that fire say they only have 5% containment with more than 800 acres burning. and here fire crews our last update they have 10% containment and it spread to about 100 acres. later on this morning at sun-up they will be able to get out here and check for hot spots. >> the firefighters are using all their resources nearby including a golf course? >> reporter: yeah. you know, it's pretty interesting. kiet do our reporter who was out here during this yesterday, he got some video of a helicopter scooping up some water from a pond at a golf course and using it on the fire here. they have also been using some flame retardant. but the very interesting thing about the video that i love is that some of the golfers nearby continuing on with their game. but hey, kenny, whatever helps. >> thank you. firefighters battle flames all over the state. this morning, more help is on the way. california national guard will be headed to the front lines. about 350 will get training and join teams, as well. >> hopefully, this cooler weather will help us in that department. >> it will help and we are getting a little tropical moisture feeling out there, too. we got that yesterday afternoon. so the humidity levels were rising, dew point reached up to 60 so it felt almost sticky out there yesterday and we got some light showers. today we are getting a cooldown. a significant cooldown and some clearing at least along the bay near where the gilroy fire is. certainly there's a little bit of smoke, of course, from the actual fire. but all the fires burning across northern california were sending smoke into our area. now the wind is pushing it away. we are getting that onshore flow so that's why we're seeing temperatures down into the 60s right now this morning in oakland, 70 for you in livermore and 69 for san francisco. beautiful view of the coit tower. here's a lack at the winds. when they come from the ocean, they are bringing cooler ocean air into our area and they are coming out of the north- northwest in hayward, south- southwest for half moon bay. 5 to 10-mile-per-hour winds this morning. but the wind gusts are going to pick up later on. fairfield will see wind gusts about 25 to 30. vallejo expected to reach about 20, 25 this afternoon. so the west winds will help drop our temperatures down a little bit. also, we are seeing a little bit of cloud cover out there. the good news is, when it comes to visibility, yesterday we are down to almost 2 miles because of smoke. that haze was bringing our visibility down between 2 to 3- mile-per-hour -- excuse me, three miles. right now, ten-mile visibility. things are clear with just high clouds from this low pressure system that's just off the coast. that brought some showers yesterday. not expecting to see that today but we are getting clearing and the cooling. >> thank you. heading out the door to the eastshore freeway, there are slowdowns. we have an accident westbound 80 approaching carlson and that's backing things up at least -- one lane blocked, possibly two lanes blocked, and traffic backed up beyond san pablo dam road at this point. we're also tracking a problem westbound 80. this is right near richmond parkway. a car broke down and that has one lane blocked. speeds are slowing down and traffic is backing up towards highway 4. here's a live look at interstate 80. this is right near san pablo dam road. and you can see all the brake lights on your screen there. it's about a 22-minute ride making your way from highway 4 to the maze. so give yourself some extra time. the richmond/san rafael bridge is slowing down, as well. hat's a check of your traffic; over to you. happening today, the city of benicia will take its first vote on whether or not to legalize marijuana. in november, voters approved proposition 64 legalizing marijuana for recreational use. the city posted an online survey and found 58% of people say both medical and retail pot sales should be permitted. the city council meets tonight at 7:00. estimates of the losses linked to hurricane harvey will top billions. cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger here to explain. so jill, you have reported that up to 80% of those impact by harvey don't carry national flood insurance. so what should these people do? >> reporter: boy, it's unbelievable. and with the weather you have been having lately, a lot of people might find themselves in a declared disaster area and if your own insurance doesn't cover you or you don't have government coverage, you will be relying on private donations through organizations like the red cross as well as assistance from the federal government. that should provide a much- needed safety net as we have seen in the past with other storms. those affected should check with disasterassistance.gov to learn details. in some circumstances you may find relief from a standard homeowners policy when any event occurs. your first step, locate the policy, review your coverage. if your car is involved, you will need your auto policy. unfortunately, if those documents are lost or damaged which is likely in some of these situations, you will call the insurance company and do request copies. >> definitely a long process. jill, walk us through what a typical claims process will be like for some of the victims in texas. >> reporter: oh, my gosh. it's -- it's really unbelievable and lengthy. you start with taking photographs or videos, then you do that before you move anything. then you make a list of damaged or lost items and hopefully that includes the date of purchase, value and maybe any receipts if they are floating around. you want to report claims as quickly as possible. insurance companies respond on a first come, first served basis. now, you get your claim number, write it down, then you contact the adjustor. that's the person from the insurance company or third party who comes out, inspects your property. it's very important not to make permanent repairs until the insurance company has inspected that property and has agreed on the cost of the repairs. before you freak out and get that first offer letter from the insurance company, just remember, these can be negotiated. for more on how to file insurance claims go to jillonmoney.com. and one last thing. when you are affected by one of these big events, you want to notify your lenders, that you will be late. >> a lot to do for those victims as they try to get through this disaster. jill schlesinger in new york city, thank you. 5:42. a car cuts a path of destruction through a bay area street before crashing into a showroom. why the driver says he lost control. >> and the next two weeks will be interesting in sacramento as this year's legislative session comes to an end. we'll take a look at some of the weighty issues yet to be solved, next. the legislature returns for the final 2 weeks of this year's session. the clock is ticking on state lawmakers. today a couple of big bills are up for discussion when the legislature returns for the final two weeks of this year's session. anne makovec is live in the newsroom with a preview. >> reporter: we are going to see a lot of action in sacramento over the next two weeks. state lawmakers dealing with issues like affordable housing, a water bond and whether california should become a sanctuary state. now, one measure that's close to passing a bill on what happens to rape kits after they are collected from victims. right now in california, the kit doesn't have to be tested and law enforcement doesn't have to tell the victims why. but this bill requires the agencies to report the number of untested rape kits and allow survivors to know the status of their kits. >> we have had a very significant coalition of survivors of sexual assault. district attorney, other members of law enforcement who have wanted more accountability and more transparency for why we have had such a massive backlog of rape evidence kits. >> but there's also a contingency saying it's costs too much. two bills last year died in committee. this bill is one vote in the wait of passage in the hands of the full senate. no bill close to passage would end lunch shaming. that's the practice of denying regular lunch to kids who can't pay for lunch. the law already says that kids who are enrolled in free or reduced lunch programs must be treated the same as those who pay full price. but not every family even knows about that free lunch program and in some school districts, a student who can't pay gets half a cheese sandwich. pretty sad. the state legislature reconvenes in sacramento this morning. >> we're definitely going to see some fights over funding and money at least some heated discussions? >> yeah. california has a little extra money this year including $1.5 billion in "cap and trade" option revenues. the governor released his proposal last week but the assembly and senate will be fighting over where the money should go, anything from earthquake readiness to rebates for electric vehicles. >> thank you. a huge mess at the tesla showroom in san francisco after a car jumped the curb and crashed into the building. yesterday afternoon, a mercedes skipped the curb on van ness and o'farrell, taking out a mailbox, a utility pole and a few bumpers before stopping partially inside the showroom. police say the driver was trying to pass someone and realized his lane was about to end. and that's when he says he accidentally slammed the accelerator instead of the brakes. >> a car going from that way to the shop. >> he didn't hit pedestrians or cars inside the dealership. he was taken to the hospital but is expected to be okay. that's amazing that he didn't hit any car in the showroom. >> right. >> tesla is. >> you don't own a tesla but you have to pay for all this damage. [ laughter ] >> messy situation there. hopefully they don't look too bad on the roads. actually, we are tracking a couple of incidents and it's making things really slow for drivers. on the eastshore freeway. we have an accident westbound 80 approaching carlson boulevard and that has things backed up beyond san pablo dam road. we're also tracking a lane blocked on westbound 80 near richmond parkway causing a backup towards highway 4. so give yourself some extra time. speeds in the yellow with a travel time of 22 minutes from highway 4 down towards the bay bridge toll plaza. here's a look at interstate 80 near san pablo dam road and it looks like they are starting to clear the lane along westbound 80 near carlson because traffic is starting to pick up but still heavy westbound. over at the richmond/san rafael bridge, a lot of, using this as an alternate route -- a lot of folks using this as an alternate route this morning, a few cars backing up, nothing major, eight minutes to 101. here's the macarthur maze where 580, 880 and 80 come together. you can see traffic is slow from there to the bay bridge toll plaza. metering lights are on. and it's looking like a parking lot. we have about a 23-minute ride along the eastshore freeway, 16 minutes from the maze into san francisco. so give yourself some extra time. also, if you are using mass transit, bart has delays in downtown oakland in all directions 20 minutes due to the weekend track maintenance that they were doing and we are dealing with a fatal accident in redwood city. it may slow you down along the tracks there for caltrain. hat's a check of your traffic; over to you. i want to show you what's going on with hurricane irma now. upgraded to a cat-5. that's 175- mile-per-hour winds. it's moving west at 14 miles per hour. this is expected to be very dangerous life-threatening storm with the winds, the rain and the storm surge, as well. it is right now about 20 miles from making landfall at the lesser antilles. looks like perform also in the line. cuba, as well. and southern portions of florida. let's show you this other view so you can get an idea. it started as a category 3. that's what it was yesterday.
