Its july 7th. Steve paulsons right here so warmer today for some folks cooler tomorrow about the same as yesterday. Maybe down a little bit then much cooler tomorrow, no doubt about it. But today, cant find any fog unless youre down towards monterey. Temperatures already pretty mild to warm here. 50s and 60s. So it wont take longer. Theres not much of a breeze yet. Maybe later this afternoon, system moving into the north will start to work its way in here over the next 24 hours for a cooldown. But today its going to start off mild to warm and end up warm to hot for many, although maybe a late breeze here could take a few degrees off some of the sunday hot temperatures 70s, 80s and 90s. All right. Sallys here now and bay bridge toll plaza somewhere else. Lets start with the east bay steve but i will show the toll plaza because i always do starting with 8 to 80 though we do have slow traffic heading south into hayward from san leandro because of a crash in the area of 92 southbound. You can see traffic is slow, but its also slow after that heading into union city. We also do have slow traffic on highway four. I do want to mention that the south bay commute is busy. Were also going to talk about an Altamont Pass problem when we come back. But now at 701, lets get back to the headlines. Okay thank you, sal. Well, Contra Costa County Health Officials are looking for anyone who might have contracted legionnaires disease after visiting a day spa in richmond during the last two weeks. And this is after two deaths from the infection have been linked to that spa. Lets go now to james torres live at the county Health Department to talk about the connection and the possible problems for the spa. James, good morning to you. Claudine, good morning to you. Well we know that day spa is now closed and its been that way since the weekend. And weve heard from county supervisors as well as county Health Officials who are saying they are looking into these investigations, seeing if they can find more people who might have been exposed to whatever might be infecting some of those other cases. Now, they announced the day spa did not have a business or Environmental Health permit, which they say is illegal to operate without. They are also asking anyone who has gone to the spa in the last two weeks to get checked out by a doctor. According to those expertsbacten standing water or pools of water. And once its aerosolized, people can inhale the bacteria in their lungs and become infected. Those involved in the investigation are even sorting through credit card receipts, appointment books, all in efforts to track down anyone who they say might be at risk. Key point now is, first, trying to locate right individual who use this business. Over the past couple of weeks to ensure that theyre healthy. I think thats really the Public Health goal right now. The centers for Disease Control and prevention say symptoms for legionnaires can include a constant cough, muscle aches, fever, shortness of breath and headaches. One woman says her partner is one of those who passed from his infection. She says its a miracle she herself wasnt infected since they visited the day spa together. I just wanted nobody else to have to go through some of this. What i just dealt with is not anyone or something anyone should go through. Now, the Health Department says they have taken samples of water that they are looking to test. They say they hope to have preliminary results on that early this week. Were live this morning from Contra Costa County. Im james torres ktvu fox two news. All right, thank you, james. Well, the number of covid 19 transmissions is rising in marin county. It is a situation thats happening in many other parts of the country. Now, the countys Public Health director tells the marin independent journal that the amount of virus detected in marins Wastewater One week ago was three times greater than the amount in june. However covid hospitalization rates remain very low in marin county, the cdc recently reported a 14 rise in covid 19 rates nationally during the first three weeks of july. The agency says the increase is due largely to summertime travel. Our time is now 704 later this morning. Both results will be announced in just over an hour from right now of a strike authorization vote by thousands of San Jose City workers. About 4500 City Employees voted last week on whether to authorize a strike for up to three days. Union leaders want city administrators to address what they called and urgent staffing crisis and city departments. And they say its hurting the city from library to Emergency Services. Now, this morning at 830, the union vote results will be announced right in front of San Jose City hall. And in los angeles, a 24 hour strike is planned this week down there by more than 11,000 city workers. Tomorrow, members of the Service Employees International Union threatened to walk off the job at work sites all across la. Theyll hold a rally at la city hall. The workers include sanitation workers, heavy duty mechanics, traffic officers and more. This is the first strike in more than 40 years for these City Employees. Later this week, hollywoods strike is going to land in the bay area. The Union Representing actors whove been on strike for weeks are planning to hold a rally this thursday in oakland. The sagaftra strike is part of whats crippling movie and tv production right now for formers and studios have failed to reach an agreement on working conditions, pay and the future use of artificial intelligence. Hollywood writers have officially been on the picket lines for more than 100 days. Representatives from the Writers Guild of america met with the studios on friday, but no agreement was made. Variety reporting during that meeting, a wga negotiator indicated that even with a deal, the writers still want to honor all picket lines, and that includes the actors strike. Neither side has commented on that additional demand, and two prominent civil rights attorneys are asking the federal government to investigate the Antioch Police department. Lawyers john burris and ben nissen sent a letter to the Us Department of justice last week and it asked the Justice Department to look into the allegations of civil Rights Violations among Antioch Police officers. Most of those allegations are tied to the racist and homophobic Text Messages involving at least 45 Police Officers.

They want commissioners to stop the expansion of driverless cabs in the city. Later this week, the ctu is expected to lift the current restrictions on crews and waymo that limit the hours they can serve the mta is also pushing the state board to hold off on lifting those restrictions. Muni Officials Say about 90 complaints against Driverless Cars are filed each month. And starting today, caltrain will temporarily reduce its Weekday Service for a nearly month long project. It is part of the effort to transform caltrain from a diesel fueled Commuter Railroad to a modern electric train system. Caltrain is reducing its number of weekday trains during peak hours and is suspending its baby bullet service. There will also be some single tracking in San Francisco, and there wont be Caltrain Service between San Francisco and millbrae on saturday or sunday for the next three weekends. Our time now. 709 well, eastbound interstate 80 is open again between hercules and crockett after a full closure through the weekend. Caltrans says that shutdown was needed to make room for the crews who are repaving the road. Its the second weekend at caltrans has closed this part of interstate 80. For that project. Theres going to be one more closure of eastbound lanes on the weekend of august 18th. And the westbound lanes will close for the same repaving project over the Labor Day Holiday weekend. All right. Time now is 709. Thats right. You know, and right now, claudine and dave, we do have some slow traffic here at the bay bridge toll plaza, which is going to be busy if you are backed up here. Now, i do see a little improvement. Look, its backing up only to the end of that parking lot. So maybe we are going to have a better than usual monday. After all, as if this clears up, we might have better traffic on the bay bridge. 880 doesnt look all that slow, and neither does 580 through downtown oakland. Look at the east bay though. Westbound 580 near isabel. There was a noninjury crash there and getting out to the Altamont Pass in both directions is just a mess because of a bunch of accidents. So if you know someone or maybe you yourself are going to the Central Valley or someone is coming in, its going to be slow. South bay commute doesnt look all that slow right now. And in the east bay on 880, we have slowing in hayward 710. Lets go back to the desk. All right thank you sal in alameda for people were rescued from the waters near the bay island ferry terminal. 29 firefighters rushed there after getting reports of people screaming for help in the water.

Tune into the latest freeway shooting in the east bay. Andre senior here now. You have details of that freeway shooting and how some drivers are reacting to this. Yeah, its happened again here. Dave, investigate. Neighbors say the gunfire on the highway erupted shortly after 2 00 yesterday afternoon. It happened on interstate 580 near grand avenue in san leandro. Chp says a passenger in a car traveling eastbound on the highway was shot and wounded by someone inside of another vehicle. The victim taken to the hospital, but there is no word yet on that victims condition. This was just the latest highway gunfire raising safety concerns among many drivers in the east bay. They say these days an argument with another driver on the freeway can easily escalate into violence. I want to get out of my car and fight some. I pull out a gun on me or something. So its definitely a fear. Even when were driving around, you know, we never know, especially gets late. You know, people on drugs and whatever. One driver from concord says people always need to keep a cool head while behind the wheel and they should be very aware of their surroundings, especially when they are on the freeway. Dont have no road rage right now. Its kind of dangerous. You know, you could literally lose your life just because someone cuts you on the freeway. So far , there have been no arrests tied to this latest freeway shooting on 580 in san leandro. It comes just a few weeks after an eight year old boy was paralyzed after being hit by a stray bullet on that same freeway in oakland. Now, ktvu has an interactive online tool that provides detailed information about bay area freeway shootings dating back to 2021. Its available on our website, ktvu. Com. Back over to you. All right. Thank you, andre. Well, three people are dead after a midair crash involving helicopters who are battling a wildfire. It all happened last night in Riverside County. And reporter Mario Ramirez from our sister station in los angeles is on the scene this morning with exactly what happened. Mario, what can you tell us . Claudine good morning to you. The ntsb now joining in on the search for answers into what happened and still a lot of unanswered questions. You can see part of the crash site here behind me and the hillsides. And we can tell you that this caused a huge response from Riverside County sheriffs chp, the us forest service, and now ntsb investigators. To give you an idea of where this is, about 90 miles east of downtown la, near the ten freeway in cabazon. And take a look at these aerials. You get an idea of the crash site from up above a burn area and youll see what appears to be a helicopter blade on the hillside there. The three who lost their lives. Weve learned on whats described as an observer. Bell helicopter where a Cal Fire Division chief, a cal fire captain and a contracted pilot in that aircraft. The other helicopter, a sikorsky s 64 helicopter, also known as a sky crane with two people on board, was able to land safely. Emergency crews rushing to the area here. This is near apache trail and pipeline avenue, again in cabazon around 720 last night. And those helicopters had been called to a nearby brushfire. The broadway fire that started roughly an hour earlier before spreading to about three acres and we saw a somber procession overnight. Firefighters and police carrying those three bodies to the Riverside County Coroners Office about 25 miles from the crash site. Both of those helicopters, we can tell you, were under contract to work for cal fire. The only two that were assigned to this fire. The helicopter that crashed was observing the fire. And according to fire officials, the sky crane that landed safely may have been conducting water or retardant drops onto those flames. So this morning, we are expecting an update from investigators and those three that were killed in that helicopter crash. They have yet to be named, but just a tragic loss for the community, the Fire Service Community as well. Heavy hearts here in this inland empire community. Well send it back to you. Certainly our thoughts go out to everyone in volved and affected by this. And mario, i can see it is sunny where you are now. I know you guys have had heat there. Obviously and fighting this fire. Do we know about weather or visibility or anything else that might have played a factor in the crash . Well, thats definitely going to be a question that investigators are looking into. And we can tell you that in the area here yesterday when this happened, when gusts were reported at about 25mph, but nothing that these aircraft can handle. Thats what theyre built for. We know that the skies here for the most part, were clear. So no issues there. But there is protocol in place when it does get too windy and those gusts are just too strong. They ground those choppers. So that was not the case here yesterday. But definitely something that investigators will be looking into. Yeah, certainly, as you said, so many questions still at this hour. Mario ramirez from Riverside County, thank you so much for that report. Well, cyclists took over the bay bridge this weekend, shutting it down to traffic temporarily. Video posted to social media yesterday afternoon showing massive crowds of teenagers and young people as you can see, theyre riding their bikes along the bay bridge, some of them doing wheelie ease. Some people who are on the bridge say there were hundreds of people in their estimations, several pro biking groups say they were involved in planning the stunt. Now, we reached out to the chp to find out whether any citations or arrests were made and we are still waiting for response. Wow. All right. Time is 719. Were going right to sal right now. See whats happening on our roads around the bay area now. So. Well, things are getting a little better on the bay bridge right now. Driving into San Francisco. If youre waiting in the oakland side or plan to, you can se backed up to about the end of that parking lot, which is an improvement. And it might even get better as the morning wears on. There have been no major issues here on interstate 880. Now, weve been looking at the east bay commute. 580 is slow coming in off the Altamont Pass because of a crash in isabel. You should be aware of that after that, it looks a pretty decent drive to castro valley, highway four, slow through bay point and 680 is moderate through walnut creek at 720. Lets talk about todays weather. Heres steve thank you sal. All right. There is a little bit of patchy fog on the coast. Thats on the santa cruz coast starting to work its way up the san mateo coast and some coming down now shallow. The depth of it very shallow, but its still going to be warm to hot inland. But i do think well get a little bit of a breeze here. The fog was nonexistent a couple of hours ago. Now its beginning to show itself air loft is warm, 70 to 79 degrees. Ben lomond mountains 79. We had 80 at mount veeder earlier this morning, 73 already in brentwood, 77. Fairfield, rio vista 72. You had 52. 5. Moon bay , a lot of 50s, 60s, but inland temps, theyll still be pushing the upper 90s to near 100. But the water temps for us continue to be cold. Theres warm water south and warm water west but not here. 51 is below average, 54 is about average, but this system dropping into the Pacific Northwest, it is going to knock them down the high here, slow process. But i think it begins today. The cooler days will be tuesday and wednesday by far. I mean, well see a good ten, 15 degree drop on the temps tuesday, probably into wednesday. But today by the coast, i do think a sea breeze kicks in. The fog is working its way up the coast. Thats usually a sure sign. Maybe later today, some bass side locations will also get in on a little more of a westerly breeze. But 60 to 90 on the temps, probably down about 2 or 3 degrees for some, compared to sunday. Much cooler, though, tuesday, wednesday, it looks pretty quiet. The us, the rest of the week. Okay. Thank you, steve. Well Bay Area Church group is back home after being trapped in africa during a military coup. Were going to hear from one of the missionaries who was stranded for more than a week. And did you know that theres only four teams in the pac 12 conference now . Ill tell you what, an angry football coach from cal says he his team and the school can only do now subways now slicing their meats fresh. Thats why soccer pros like me profer the grand slam ham. And this rookie prefers fresh sliced turkey. Perfect for when youre subbed out of the game. And if we profer it, we know youll prefer it too. Nothing better than a sub, sub. An early yesterday morning in a match that did shock soccer fans across the globe. Team usa losing to sweden in a dramatic penalty kick shootout. Thats after playing to a scoreless draw in the round of 16. This is the americans earliest exit ever from the womens world cup and former cal star and team cocaptain alex morgan says the entire team is heartbroken. I think that everyone just wanted to lean in on each other in the moment. Its a really tough moment. This team was a really special team. You know, its i just feel like everyone just got along really well. Yeah. So its a tough one to swallow. Sweden now advances to play japan in a quarterfinal match. That will be early friday morning o time now 725. The collapse of the pac 12 could have a big impact on cal and stanford athletes who may be working towards going to the olympics only for schools remain in what was once called the conference of champions, cal and stanford, which are still in the pac 12, have a history of seeing their athletes qualify for the olympics. But losing pac 12 media rights funding could send potential olympic athletes in sports that include swimming and track to other schools. Cal football coach Justin Wilcox says overall, its just a bad situation. Its frustrating. You know, theres some anger in there, but right now were focused on is this season and theres still a lot to be determined for us. The conference moving forward, theres people working on that now at the 2020 summer olympics in tokyo, 32 us olympic athletes were current or former stanford students, 16 of them were current or former or cal students.

It is backed up through bay point and part of pittsburgh, but not too slow and its improving now on the 680 freeway between concord and walnut creek. Still a little slow there. The bay bridge backed up to the middle of the parking lot, so thats improved quite a bit. 732 lets get back to the headlines. Okay, sal, thank you. Well, summer is officially over for many oakland families, today is the first day of school for more than 34,000 kids in the Oakland Unified School district. Ali rasmus tells us what school and city leaders are planning today to kick off this new school year. Good morning, ali. Good morning, dave. We are outside hoover Elementary School in west oakland, where just about a half an hour from now, usds super intendent. Some city leaders will be here to greet parents, teachers and students heading into class for the first day of the new school year. Some are officially over for osd kids and families. Parents, students and teachers are hoping for a smooth start to the year. The last school year, youll recall, ended shortly after a ten day long teachers strike. It was resolved in time for the final week of school. Osd teachers now have a new contract there are other important roles the city and the district are trying to fill. O usd has a shortage of crossing guards. The city of oakland pays for those crossing guards. There are about a dozen schools that still dont have enough. The School District spokesperson made a pitch for people to help out and apply for anybody can come and do this work. Its a Pretty Simple job that is, you do a couple of hours in the morning, a couple of hours in the afternoon. Hey, as far as i know from the city of oakland is pretty good. And so a lot of retired folks do this. Other folks who are just looking for some extra money, i think that you can make some pretty good money doing it. So we just want to get the word out, make sure people know that these opportunities are there and we do need the help. Now, there are some other challenges ahead for usd. Like many public School Districts, especially here in the bay area, enrollment is declining. We dont have the final numbers for usd this School Year Just yet, but in a budget document from the districts chief Business Officer earlier this year, the district estimated a nearly 11 drop in Elementary School enrollment. This year, compared to the 2018 2019 school year. So well learn more about the future of usd. Its students whats going on in classes today and also its budget. When we have a chance to talk to the School Superintendent and some city leaders on this first day of the academic year. Live in oakland, allie rasmus, ktvu fox two news. All right, ali, thank you. Time now. 734. Were back to School Shopping here in the us. Expected to break records this year. This is expected to be the most expensive School Shopping season ever. The National Retail federations as American Families will spend about 41. 5 billion this year on School Supplies, compared to 37 billion last year. Many schools are helping families who are on tight budgets with backpack giveaways and other back to school events. Our goal is to make sure that when kids come to school, they can focus on fun and learning. So were going to try to give them all the basics they need. Yeah, that study found the parents of elementary and High School Students will spend an average of 900 on back to School Supplies this year. And dont forget, ktvu has our annual back to School Supply drive. You can donate to it by scanning the qr code on your tv screen now or going to ktvu. Com School Supply drive.

Well, there was an emotional reunion for members of a church group from antioch. They are finally back in the bay area after they were trapped in the west african country of niger. The group from the Cornerstone Christian center was running a free summer camp in west africa, and they were supposed to return last week. But two days before their scheduled departure, a military coup seized power and the border was shut down. Family and friends back home worked hard to secure their return. That was my job. This week was just calling everybody i could call and doing everything that i could do with the help of their elected representatives. The group of eventually received word from the state department. The emails had come with your patience and your humor and be ready. And we waited there for about ten hours more than 24 hours later, they touched down back here in the bay area and set down its airspace again yesterday, which was the deadline set by a group of african countries for the leaders of a military coup to reinstate the countrys democratically elected president. The coup leaders say they closed the airspace due to the threat of intervention from neighboring countries. Our time now, 736 south korea plans to evacuate tens of thousands of boy scouts from a Scout Jamboree in the southern part of that country. And its all because of a Tropical Storm moving in on that region. It comes after scouts from the us and england packed up their tents and left the jamboree because of record breaking heat in south korea. About 600 scouts from around the world have suffered heat related illnesses. Its not clear if those scouts include any from the local group that flew to south korea from sfo just two weeks ago. And theres a deadline today for former president Donald Trumps lawyers in federal court. Prosecutors asked the judge overseeing Donald Trumps election interference case to issue a protective order limiting what he can say. And the judge ordered trumps lawyers to respond. And by 2 p. M. Today to that request were protective order. All of this after trump lashed out at prosecutors and even the judge on his social media site. He also went after his former Vice President , mike pence, who resisted his efforts to block certification of the 2020 election. President trump was wrong then, and hes wrong now. I had no right to overturn the election. Trump is asking the judge overseeing the case to recuse herself, saying he wont get a fair trial with the federal judge, tanya chutki. He also says he asked that his case be moved out of washington, d. C. All right. Time now is 738. Lets talk about our roadways on this first day of school. For many south. All right. And things are improving a little bit there. Claudine and dave at the bay bridge. I like what i see here. There is a backup, but its going away rather quickly in the 8 00 hour. It should be light if you do have to drive across the bridge, interstate 880 and oakland looks pretty good. No problems on 680 from san ramon. Doesnt feel a little slowing in pleasanton. 5 to 80, though, is a mess. Coming in from the Altamont Pass in to livermore. Theyre still clearing a crash near isabel. It really has caused a bunch of slow traffic and if you look over here on the left, 880 south through union city in fremont is slow just looks like we got a new crash. 880 heading down toward milpitas near stevenson. Theres a new crash reported there. 739 lets go back to steve who is doing todays weather. Thank you, sal. Well, the first signs of a little pattern change here moving offshore, but down the coast, theres some fog now that still has a ways to go. But once its touched, it starts to make that move. Itll roar in. And there is a little bit down around monterey, santa cruz working its way ever so slowly up santa cruz coast and heading towards the san mateo coast. Now, the basis of that are quite shallow, but still, its a sign of things to come here. I think well get a seabreeze later today. Water temps are doing their part. They continue to favor cold 50, 51, 5154. Thats cold for this time of year. The coolest days will be tuesday and wednesday. Well get a big drop tomorrow. Today that will start off pretty mild to warm. Temperatures inland will still be in the upper 90s to near 100. Were in the 50s, 60s and 70s already. Fairfield 77. I would not be surprised they get close to 100 today. 40s in the mountains. Truckee and South Lake Tahoe 80s and 90s on the desert and then 50s and 60s up and down the coast. But you can see the fog once it starts to make a move like this, its only a matter of time. So the city may warm up pretty rapidly till about noon or one. And then that seabreeze is going to roar in and that system moving in the Pacific Northwest is the cause of whats going to lead to a rather significant cooldown. And a lot of drizzle looks to be in our forecast tuesday into wednesday. So hang in there if you want the cool its on its way. Just may take another day or so 6070s anywhere near the water. I do think, though, the fog starts to make an impact here later and then for sure tomorrow. But inland temps, theyll still be in the 80s and 90s. Tomorrow though, well see those drop off the table then keep them there the rest of the week. You guys all right, steve, thank you. Time is 741 in turkey. The long cleanup and rebuilding goes on in six months after a devastating earthquake. Well let you hear from the head of a local aid group about the efforts to help the quake survivors.

Our claudine, lets drive one over to sal castaneda. Hes watching your morning commute. Hows it look, suh . It looks okay. Dave, dave and claudine. I think that right now we still have a bunch of slow traffic, but its improving. Lets go to Contra Costa County and start on highway four. We had a stalled vehicle that made things a little bit worse in the last few minutes on highway four, 680, concord to walnut creek. Some slowing bay bridge is improving. I like what i see. So if youve been waiting to go to the bay bridge, you may want to go now before something happens and changes that. I mean, theres always that risk. This is a look at 880 in oakland. That looks pretty good for 585. 80 is just a mess coming in from the Altamont Pass into livermore. A lot of people are going to be in a kind of a sour mood after experiencing that in their cars. I think. 750 lets go back to steve with todays weather. Sal thank you, sir. Fog is trying. It probably wont make any impact today inland, but coast . I think so. And i think there will be a little bit of a sea breeze. But inland temps will still be pushing the upper 90s for some, but patchy fog is on the coast, some raw down, others starting to work its way up from santa cruz. Ill show you that in a second. Much cooler, though, on tuesday. They are all of those still really warm berkeley lab has dropped a little bit. They were 71, now 69, 79. Ben lomond mountain, mount victor, 78. We need to break that down. That will be tomorrow. But watch the fog just fly down the coast in the last few images here. So still has a ways to go. But coming up from santa cruz, you can see some there now thats pretty patchy and shallow as well. But its a sign of things to come here later this afternoon. I do think well get a seabreeze. Water temps are doing their part. Their cold, 51 to 54. So once you get those 90 and 100 inland, all you need is a little help. And that fog will get a little help from a system coming in tonight, tomorrow and into wednesday. Thats when our temperatures will drop off the table here, 50, 60, 70, fairfields, already 78. Brentwood, 74, rio vista 73, a lot of 60s in here. So we will warm up pretty rapidly here. 50 up in truckee, 44, South Lake Tahoe, 56 in mammoth, 61 in reno and you can see again, these two will probably get their act together here, the fog coming down the coast. And what little is coming up there from santa cruz. But that system kicking in to the Pacific Northwest, thats the leading edge of whats going to lead to a rather significant cooldown, probably a sea breeze later today than for sure on tuesday, wednesday. And drizzle, a lot of drizzle looks to be in the forecast. Not this morning, but by tomorrow morning, i think it will be so mostly clear, teeny bit of fog, but its showing itself now. It will be a make a bigger impact tomorrow. Sunny, slight cooler coast in bay inland temps though still upper 90s but i do expect a breeze to kick in later today. So cooler for all it kicks in tuesday. Wednesday kind of hangs in there the rest of the week. Their day. All right, steve, thank you. Time is 753, about 4500.

Contra costa county Health Officials want to find out whether more people have contracted legionnaires disease. Thats after two people died from the infection after visiting a day spa in richmond. Ctvs james torres is live in richmond telling us what the latest is from the county Health Officials there. James andre, good morning. We are in front of the zen day spa here in richmond where you see behind me doors are now locked. They have a big closed sign right there written in a notice from the Health Department that says that the facility is closed until further notice. Its been this way since the weekend. And county Officials Say the spa actually did not have the right business or Environmental Health permits to operate. And those leaders are asking anyone at this time who have visited the spa in the last two weeks go get checked out by a doctor and certainly keep notice if he starts to develop any symptoms. According to the experts, the bacteria can be found in standing or pools of water. And once its aerosolized , people can inhale the bacteria. That bacteria can get in your lungs and thats how you become infected. Those involved in the investigation are sorting through credit card receipts, appointment books, all in hopes to track down anyone who they say might be at risk. Key point now is, first trying to locate right individuals who use this business. Over the past couple of weeks to ensure that theyre healthy. I think thats really the Public Health goal right now. The centers for Disease Control and prevention says symptoms for legionnaires can include a constant cough, muscle aches, fever, shortness of breath, headaches as well. We heard from one woman who says her partner is one of those who passed from his infection. She says its a miracle she wasnt infected since they both visited the day spa together. I just wanted nobody else to have to go through some of this. What i just dealt with is not anyone, something anyone should go through. Now, we last heard of an outbreak of legionnaires last year in napa county. There, officials said 12 people were infected, at least one person died and several others were hospitalized as a result. Now, the Health County here in Contra Costa County, they say that they took water samples from the spa here. Theyre getting those tested right now. And they said that they hope to have preliminary test results of those samples sometime early this week. Of course, well let you know once we have those results.

There is some slowing between the metering lights before you get onto the bridge, but its not much thats going away to interstate 880 looks good. So thats one half of the east bay. The other half is a very slow half. If youre on 5 to 80, it has been very slow from the tracy area into livermore.

Two cars were abandoned after they crashed, including one that critically injured a woman in her 50s. And then another car ended up in the river at the antioch marina and had to be pulled out. That happened just about a block from the Police Department headquarters and Antioch City Council member says part of the problem is theyre just not enough Police Officers to stop the drivers.

Monterey dealing with a little bit of fog there. But boy, ill tell you, thats a big fog bank just offshore. And you get those 90 and 100 is inland. Our water temps that cold. All it needs is some help. Well, guess what . That system in the oregon, thats the help and its going to start to help it along here in the form of not only an increase in the onshore breeze or wind, but a lot of fog and drizzle over the next couple of days, tuesday, wednesday, maybe thursday, were going into a significant cooldown today. Inland, though, lots of sunshine , warm to hot, less a breeze decides to kick in. Its close, 60, 70. I think the city gets to 72, maybe by noon or one, and then it drops off the table as that.

Now, even if it does, the sea breeze should kick in here ten hours, 60 already though. Livermore is already 74. Theyll be on their way upper 90s to maybe near 100 i think coast and bay because as fungus roaring down the coast and theres even a little bit down towards santa cruz. So even if we dont get the fog released later today, i think the onshore breeze will begin to kick in. System in the Pacific Northwest is the one thats kind of giving it a little bit of a push here. And thats going to lead to a big drop in those temps tomorrow. Sunny, itll be warm to hot inland. I do think an afternoon breeze, though, does kick in here from any coast in bay, but still 70s, 80s and 90s. All right. Salsa here and he went to the black watch and i did go to the black. I looked in the window there once i yeah that i know now i know what youre talking about because there is no window there. Thank you sir. Its one of those bars. Its. Its a great place, especially if youre a young person looking to have a little fun in los gatos. But i should get to the traffic now on 880. Finally improvement on eight 8680 and also 580 even though theyre all still pretty slow from earlier issues, you know, its improved quite a bit. The bay bridge, its light right now at the toll plaza. Theres a little bit of slowing on the actual bridge. 831 lets get back to the headlines. All right, thanks, sal. Well, in oakland today, today is the first day of school for thousands of kids. Students and teachers are back in the classroom in the Oakland Unified School district. Lets go now to ktvu, ali rasmus live at an Elementary School in oakland to tell us how that first day is going so far. And, ali, its hard for me to wrap my mind around back to school. It came up so fast. Yeah, a short summer, it seems like, for a lot of parents and certainly kids who are starting the school year right now, this is hoover elementary. Were on the grounds here. And just a short time ago, we heard that bell ring. And so now you see some of the students whove got to that wall to check their class assignments. Theyre packing up their bags and theyre heading into class. Weve had a chance to talk to some parents this morning. They say they are optimistic about the school year. We also talked to a teacher, librarian who says that shes also optimistic. Theyre excited for this first day of school. Youll recall the end of the last school year here at usd ended with that ten day teachers strike that was resolved just before the school year ended. And so now theres a new sense of optimism with a pay raise for some of the teachers here that theyre able to maybe have like a better a better start to the school year. And that peace of mind knowing that theyre going to have better pay heading into this school year. We also spoke with the superintendent, osd superintendent kyla johnson trammell. She talked about how there are some teacher vacancies , even though they have teachers, did get a bump in pay. She says thats just a factor of the reality of there just being staffing shortages across the board. Earlier this year, there was a budget director document that estimated osd was going to have an 11 enrollment decline at the Elementary School level. The superintendent says its not quite as high as that, but that all public School Districts across the country are seeing a decline in enrollment. So we just wrapped up speaking with her a short time ago. Kids are heading to class. Parents are dropping them off. Well have all of that in more detail for you coming up in the next hour of mornings on two. Live in oakland, ali rasmus, ktvu fox two news. Well retail studies show back to School Shopping in the us is expected to break records this year. But those same studies also show this is going to be the most expensive School Shopping season ever.

But then two days before their scheduled departure, a military coup seized power, and that border was shut down for family and friends back home. Worked hard to secure their return. That was my job. This week. Was just calling everybody i could call and doing everything that i could do with the help of their elected representatives. The group eventually received word from the state department the emails had come with your patience and your humor and be ready. And we waited there for about ten hours. And then more than 24 hours later, they did touch down back here in the bay area, niger shut down its airspace again yesterday, which was the deadline set by a group of african countries for the leaders of a military coup to reinstate that countrys democratically elected president.

Coming up on 836 right now, south korea plans to evacuate tens of thousands of boy scouts from a jamboree site in the southern part of that country.

Trump also went after his former Vice President , mike pence, who resisted his efforts to block certification of the 2020 election. President trump was wrong then, and hes wrong now. I had no right to overturn the election. Trump is also asking the judge overseeing the case to recuse herself, writing that he wont get a fair trial with federal judge tanya shukan. And he says he will also ask that his case be moved out of washington, dc. All right. Your time now is 837 and time to talk about the temperatures. It was a hot weekend, steve. And if people were hoping for a cool down today, theyre going have to be patient, right . Unless youre by the coast, i think well get something some cooling there inland one more hot day then itll be cooler tomorrow. Much cooler on tuesday. But inland temps will be in the upper 90s to near 100 coast and bay. Even though its sunny, i do think a sea breeze is kicking in. Fog is flying down the coast, but the air aloft is just too warm. So the fog bank will be shallow, can be dense, fog would be mainly confined to the coast. Its trying, but when youre 73 to 79, in the hills, thats warm air. Thats a big fog bank out there. The key, though, is its out there. Its not on the coast, but its a sign of things to come. And some is trying to work its way patchy from monterey into monterey bay and then santa cruz. But, boy, ill tell you, thats having a hard time even though the water temps are cold, cold, 51, 50, 51, 54. And the water temps are doing their bit all it needs a little bit of help. Itll get it from that system in the Pacific Northwest, we will drop 15 degrees or so, maybe even more than that tomorrow. Yet already fairfield says 81, 78. Brentwood 72. Walnut creek, rio vista 74. San joses already 70. So the stage is set for a warm to hot day. Inland 50 is already up in the mountains. They drop to the mid seconds. But now already the 50s and on the coast, 5060s. But the fog is i mean, once its making an appearance there, even though its not on the coast, the sea breeze is not far away. The tricky forecast is always a city. Its probably around 70, 72. Then i think that seabreeze, aurora, thats a pretty good system for august is moving into the Pacific Northwest. Thats going to lead to our cooldown and a ramp up of not only the fog and low clouds, but drizzle. I think tuesday, tuesday night, wednesday, maybe even into thursday. Theres some pretty decent amounts there, especially on the san mateo coast and in some of the higher elevations. So well go mostly clear in the morning. Teeny bit of fog to the south, sunny, but an afternoon breeze. I should start to kick in coast and bay. So 6070s inland though itll still be 90s upper 90s to maybe near 100 cooler for all tuesday wednesday and well kind of keep it there until the end of the week there. Claudine and andre.

The man whos talking about todays weather is mr. Steve paulson, who came in. Oh, me . Yes, yes, yes. One more warm to hot day inland. I think the coast begins to cool off here. A little bit cooler for all tuesday, and then well keep it there. Wednesday, thursday, friday. Look like only subtle changes. The reason being is some fog is trying to get its act together and its flying down the coast. But were still seeing 60 to 70 already. And there it is now, theres some around santa cruz thats patchy. Thats a big fog bank offshore, but its a sign of things to come here as a system in the Pacific Northwest digs in. And as it does, its going to give us that onshore breeze. So it probably wont kick in until a little bit later. I think it kicks in coast and bay around noon, early this afternoon. Inland temps will still be upper 90s to near 100 degrees.
