Usgs now likely a whole lot more of you out there that did feel that rattling earlier on this morning. It was just northwest of al bunny, fairly close to walnut creek as well. Again, this was 07 44am. This morning. Initially shake reports are limited to around contra costa, alameda counties. But now people on the peninsula as well as the south bay have reported feeling it as well. Reports of a few people saying the chandelier was going back and forth. We will be actually talking rain and aria right now with a a someone from the usgs about the latest on this quake. Yeah, we have a whole been on the line with us. She has to tell us a little bit more about where it was centered and what kind of fault activity we saw this morning. Good morning. Thank you for joining us. Good morning. It says of as the others all about 6 mile you you colleague, youve already typical event that we in this area colleagues indicated a lot did you feel response and have them in at this all of the shaking is. But the week life no damage yeah, hes the kind of thing worry some something doesnt even fall off the shelves. But still thats a big deal over wake you up. And its a wakeup call. I do want to ask about this, so as i look at the shake map, i see to the north how you know, San Francisco that i keep working my way down. Okay. Where people are feeling it and then theres a spot like down south of san jose and even los gatos. How do you get these spotty people who feel its so far away . I think just extra sensitive or what . Thats a really good with surprise. You. He won out of their love, even. In well on with a with a the valley we need to filled chilly stop and additional application of it. I think ways that the imminent from the u. S. Can be expected to up the ice and you know, and even as far down as kind feel diligently moderately. One senior saying it depends kind of like what kind of ground youre on. Exactly. That has a lot to do with how people what they feel, how they and so if in in the center of the bay and on bill. Want without more likely to feel safe midst of the first. You are in from where i am and this includes percent. So that is a very scientific explanation. All. So im assuming that means you dont believe that. There are certain people that are super sensitive or maybe like, you know, the whole thing about the wives, tales about animals have sense. You know that just might be what people are sensitive to life skills of that always up something lee there really no. Credible evidence that animals feeling any differently or what can report it. Dont pay a whole lot it. Well, if it were true, we have them all ready to go in a lab, we deserve them and we get a warning. First but i do want to ask you about the earthquake Warning System like that. We get a warning about this. It small a warning obviously the tricky part is if you want little we get instantly, people dont patients anyone. Exactly. Im not not warn people below monitor if it not you to advantage might be little no would have all thats good. So what at what point does a warning kick in and how much warning do we get for a big one . I believe in the bay area come up. When ive been taking part this is right want take the warning that hopefully make decision. I will be late probably see the what it is. Its really more beneficial to people that a little more that has to do to help them used to i want to see if he actually might be apple pies are way to other be away. The app damage in bay. And you may know really significant. So, the in and the at least one of thats good. The way i do want to ask you because that the con to our connection with you is a little fuzzy. You said the warning would kick in at what magnitude and then also how much warning will weaken. I believe that am how much really depends on how you are the earthquake. Depends on that i think it will cost the company. But if somebody eye will be able to get on, one of the committee make it a couple seconds of warning. It and make it a couple more because it wanted what you need. And then on the days you are. Right. But its seconds. Okay. Just seconds. Just long enough to brace yourself. Really great reminder of just what youre supposed to do. I know got a lot of mixed information is good time remind viewers that are watching. If you do feel earthquake, what are you supposed to do . We still stop drop and roll in here. Now. Very close drop. Were in. Hold on. You want to are with to you want to get on if you to the side of the bed gone. Its just, you know, whatever you wonder, they obviously moved use a king. 8 without the shaking of 80 building or wherever you im going to then it is fact that the building, fine. A vacation point. Can not that you ation is of the building into letters got to top of on cover. And, you know, like because youre an expert. I want to know your cool as a cucumber. All. But when when, when everything really hit the fan was the biggest quake you ever been and how did that go . You well, i feel because if you have take on the fun low. So city, you know, not not really where we were, but obviously really significant or regional event. Caused quite a bit of damage. I really wanting to be have been looking to just wondering. How you met the test thanks a lot. We love all the information. Okay. 7 right now. All right. Weve got our top story this morning. Late last night, former President Donald Trump was indicted and his alleged 2020 election interference plot in georgia. The former president is named with 19 other defendants in our dc correspondent basil john has more. This is the 4th indictment trump is facing as he has been charged in 3 separate cases just this year. Monday, a grand jury in Fulton County, georgia, issued the 4th set of criminal charges against former President Donald Trump and 18 others charging 19 individuals with violations of georgia law, Fulton CountyDistrict Attorney fani willis started the investigation 2 years ago and she announced the former president and others were indicted in scheming to overturn the 2020 Election Results in the peach state. The defendants engaged in a criminal recut enterprise to overturn georgias president ial election result. Part of that effort was captured on a recorded call 2 months after the election. I want to do is that i just want to 11,000, 780. Love. Week is one more that we have. The indictment outlines charges of racketeering, conspiracy to commit false statements and soliciting a public officer to violate their oath of office. In a statement trump said, quote, the leftwing prosecutor orchestrating this latest witch hunt for crooked joe was caught intermix sing her political fortunes with this case. But willis says her office is nonpartisan. We look at the facts. We look at the law and we bring charges. Willis said the 19 defendants have until noon on august. 25th to voluntarily surrender. Reporting in washington. Im basil, john. Its 909 and the strike involving thousands of San Jose City workers has been postponed for 24 hours a city council will be meeting in just 30 minutes 30 consider the labor unions proposal. So we find kron fours will tran live in san jose with the latest on that. So heres what you need to know. Those workers that should have been on strike that they said that they would be on strike today. Have there not been a deal. Theyre at work, at least for today. But depending on what happens right behind me and the City Council Members will meet. Very shortly in about 20 minutes or so from now, depending on what they decide, it could didnt mean strike or no strike. Now, we do know. And heres video from last week that they announced that they would be on strike today through thursday, overwhelmingly voted. 99 of the 4500 workers spending librarians airport workers inspectors. They said that they would be on strike, had there not been a deal, but they did say that they would continue negotiating and thats exactly what they did to the point where the city council will look at a proposal. Worked out by the 2 sides to see whether or not it is doable for the city. And if they vote yes, lets approve this. Theres a good chance that the 4500 members will ratify it and avoid a strike all together. But of course, if they deny that means a strike will happen. Not today. Of course, but tomorrow. So all they did in essence, rain and aria was hit the pause button. Were going to move in there and let you know exactly whats going to happen. We do expect the City Council Members to arrive any moment. Its a closed door session, but our newscast should span this meeting. Well try to let you know before the end of our newscast that runs through the 10 oclock am. All right. Thanks. A lot of the in the east bay, former oakland chief Leronne Armstrong is now suing the city for wrongful termination. Our was actually placed on leave and fired back in february over his handling of to misconduct incidents involving an officer. The allegations they were released by from working for the federal monitor at the time armstrong accuse reported misstating and is characterizing statements he made regarding the incidents and a mandate to be reinstated. Sources also told kron 4 that the former chief claims he was fired in retaliation for criticizing robert warshaw. Thats the federal monitor who oversees a department for 2 decades. Its not clear what kind of damages armstrong seeking. The city has not publicly responded to that claim. We got a lot to get to on the kron. 4 morning news. There is a new report. By Oakland Police, the show stark an increase in Violent Crime this year. Were going to show you the numbers and coastal areas stay cool today. Only in the 60s to 70s waller inland areas staying unfortunately for philly, 5, some 90s in a couple of triple digits. Still on the will we get some relief . 9. 14, right now. And we just want to let you know if you didnt feel it earlier this morning at 7. 45. Those a 3. 4 earthquake alamo. Yeah, a lot of people definitely talking about the shaking the map be pulled from the north bay to the south bay. Johns been tracking. Thats john. What are you seen . Yeah, you know, we had our usgs expert on during our last block and really give us some good insight on why were feeling this earthquake in some spots pretty far away from the epicenter. Now, most of our shake reports have been from around alameda and contra costa counties. And as you can see, thats the part of the bay. Thats much closer to where this earthquake centered up right around walnut creek canal bunny that occurred at 7. 44, 00 04am, this morning was now this is right along the very Northern Edge of the calaveras fault, which kind of parallels where you see 6. 80, going down from san ramon down through the tri valley. So this quake right here, theres over 1500 shake reports on the usgs website from it. So quite a lot of us across the bay area, maybe even waking up to a little roll. A little rattle earlier on this morning. Now, this is a very minor quake. So the chance of any sort of damages or injuries are very, very minimal. But we did hear reports of people saying chandelier is were shaking around little bit of that bookshelf rattling as well. Stuff that we know all too well in the bay area. But if you did feel it, magnitude, 3. 4 at 07 44am. Few hours back this morning. Now where were sitting right now, skies for the most part clear in temperatures are on the rise under that sunshine. We do have a few dark clouds right around easter contra costa and solano counties. Earlier this morning, we actually some brief Thunderstorm Development across the east bay. Look at this picture that our viewer derek captured right around sunrise time this morning had some lightning up there in those dark clouds above the east bay. Lot of that activity is diminish now. But this low pressure area sitting to the south of the region is dragging in with it. Some monsoonal moisture that the remnants of which just enough to pop off some convection and thats those isolated thunderstorms that we did see earlier. This low does move a little bit further northward and its really blocking off coastal access to that. A nice cool marine air that typically saves our inland areas. Thats one of the reasons weve got those 90s to triple digits right back in play for areas further away from the water. While our coastal spots will be tapping into that cool air. And only the 60s right along the coast and a little bit of fog from time to time for those coastal spots today in sf expected to be a warm one, but comfortable compared to the rest of the bay 60s and 70s and San Francisco as well as down highway one. A lot of 80s for the bayshore. Definitely a warm day near 90 . Carlos in redwood city 90s for woodside as well as san Jose Saratoga and cupertino and near triple digits for parts of the tri valley on up through walnut creek, danville, in concord, oakland, berkeley and richmond are most comfortable spots in the east bay in the 70s while vacaville getting up to 102 are very hottest spot today. Santa rosa through center fell hovering right around 90 degrees. We stay hot to tomorrow. Cooling a little bit into the weekend. Still warm inland, but seasonably so with upper 80s to low 90s inland by friday, saturday and sunday. Well, bayshore cities will see temps dropping from the 80s back to the 70s rain. All right, john, thank you for that. Lets get a look at your fridge camps today about 13 minutes heading into the city this morning, 70 of ridge just under 20 minutes. There are Richmond Center fell ridge a little under 13. And the golden gate bridge. 37 to the tolls. 20 minutes on this tuesday. Time to talk winners and losers as our financial expert rob black morning, rob. Morning deiah. Hey, can you explain why stocks are down . I know theres a connection to china. How are they impacting us . Chinas cutting their lending rate. Were raising our were trying to fight inflation. Theyre trying to stoke inflation very getting their people out. Spend and wall street doesnt like that. Theyre just not reopening. Theyve been reopening since covid for about 8 months where theyre 0 covid policy people to start spending. In fact, its getting worse and china. We need them. We need number one. And number 2 economies, the world working together elsewhere, fitch is downgrading or not downgrade. Theyre saying we may downgrade big banks in the united keeping morgan, citigroup and wells fargo because it does look like theres a spending slowdown in credit card defaults in situations along those lines. Thats bad news. If a bank, its downgraded. Means theyre borrowing. Costs are higher. Make less money. I know we dont like the banks, but we want them making their money. So they glenn doss at a cheaper before you move beyond banks. I do have a question. I did mileage ahead of time. You know, the viewers are supposed to but is it true . So lets say because you brought a banks, lets say at because of whats going on with the banks right . And people get nervous. Is it true that lets say you wanted to take out everything like lets say you had 50,000. Get that tomorrow or theyre going to say no, you cant get your money for like a month because it is my money. You can do it in 2 minutes or champ. Jump on line 5 quick later. And you have your money. You transfer to another bank or you know, a ch it to a scenario. So that like wives tale thats going on right now, people like, you know, you cant get your bank money like theyre not going to give it to you. Whole false. Okay. Very and and i said dont panic. I so far as 0 americans who lost money in banks when theres been runs on the banks like they happened earlier this year or so, come out and make sure people get caught up because their grandparents or their great grandparents had a run on the banks where they did lose things like the farm when loans were called loans are no longer coble. Youre not going your house or your farm anymore, ok . Well, and while im on to this, like, you know, where you can hear about stuff. In that these are sphere of us that we regular like is this true, ok, is this true . What i see on youtube about cancer . Because its another good point like people use the sources and they may be seeing false information yeah, youtube says theyre going to crack down on this of i guess youd snake oil salespeople. So its going to be not only just cancer but other diseases that affect United States population with bad information. So that came out today that theyre going to crack down on bad information. For instance, if i have cancer and i dont right now, i hope. But if they say you can read crystals on your neck and it will take away your lymphoma, thats probably not going to stay on youtube in the future because theyre going to go with more medical guidelines that are acceptable by population itself. I think thats a good i learned how to fix my toilet. My dryer. I learned how to fix everything on you to write. I dont i dont want to get medical advice on your but what . But like you said, you you go all you to reputable and for some things, maybe not for others. And i cant believe were talking about the iphone batteries today on this very day. When we have one thats at 85 and its losing charge like within 10 minutes. Kerry can get replaced for free within the 2 years of apple care at 80 , the magical number. I just did my night at the battery place. The screen still fine. It was under apple care. But of was it wouldve been 69 to 99 way cheaper than the 121400 phone replacement. So 80 the magic number without care. And when you should replace it 80 after that, a candidate e 5 . You know failing and you got to pay yourself. I know youre saying that retail sales went up a little bit. I want you to get that real quick only cause. Im interested about the Kim Kardashian thing because scams are such a success. Go retail sales are the theyve been since january saw flames coming. Twothirds of our 26. 8 trillion comes from retail sales. Are the consumer consumers doing great Credit Card Debt has topped a trillion dollars, but consumers are persevering and with inflation dropping these really good numbers because its not like were paying more for the same thing. Were paying a little bit more for the same thing. But these were good numbers okay. So and Kim Kardashian has good numbers. Joe, thanks to scams against. Im just saying thank you for even the name scams. Instead of calling it a girdle. At this is been fabulous. Marketing is a good product. Ive never run into scams in my life and anyone that dated and hustl
