Prominent. Its the first part of the both marks, it creates a lot of issues around confusion. If you enter San Francisco into San Franciscos pop up, that thats by definition, thats very confusing. Come up with something thats more distinctive at the beginning of the name. If you really want to change your name. Even at oakland airport, where we met passengers from out of town, opinion was divided. I would guess that maybe combining the names, maybe, teaches people that they are close and affiliated with each other. I do know that when i first was flying here, that it was a little confusing which one to go to. So i can understand that being an issue. Actually, i like it being oakland. I like it being, not not so confusing for somebody who doesnt fly in here all the time. Now, San Franciscos City Attorney issued this statement. If oakland continues to rebuff our offers to partner, we will have to move forward with the next steps in our trademark lawsuit and seek to seek a preliminary injunction to stop infringement on sfos trademark, which is to say, the fight really now is just beginning. Back to you. Yeah, strong words there from the City Attorney. Not sure if hes bluffing. Probably not. So what are the next steps, tom, would you say . Well, the next step would be to move towards an injunction, whether temporary or permanent, and enjoy in the city of oakland from doing anything like that. The defense to that, of course, is that when you think about chicago ohare, chicago midway, you think about dallas love field, you think about dallas fort worth. Theres a lot of precedence for this. So its going to be an interesting fight. And whether or not it applies all the way to airports is still going to be an issue. That has to be worked out, which is why this is a big win for the attorneys. All right. Tom vacar live tonight in the newsroom, tom. Thank you. Well fire investigators in hayward are now trying to pinpoint the cause of a vegetation fire that destroyed multiple cars and threatened nearby homes. The fire broke out this afternoon in the Jackson Triangle neighborhood east of 92 and 880. Ktvu Jana Katsuyama joins us now live from the scene. Jana, you spoke with one neighbor who pulled out her garden hose when that fire started. Shes live now at the scene with the details on what happened. Yes. Julie, let me just step aside so you can see just how close some of these houses are. The fire started on those trees right in the back. You can see where theres some burn area in the eucalyptus. It made for a very scary scene for the neighbors in this area. The flames frightening close to homes, shot up through the trees behind a house on lucien way in hayward thursday afternoon. It was really, really scary. Lucy nieto was home is adjacent to the trees in her neighbors backyard that caught on fire a shock, she says. Seeing the flames so close, i jumped out, got my family out and then i dont know what came over me. But basically i just thought, well, maybe i could slow down the fire. I grabbed the hoses. She says she got her elderly parents out of the house and then came back to try and put water on her shed and fence to slow the flames. I grabbed the hoses. I told my son to grab a hose and start watering down the grass or shed area. Hayward fire crews arrived and were able to keep the fire from spreading to surrounding houses, but four vehicles parked in the backyard were completely destroyed. Two people who live in the home were able to get out and no one was injured. But one big concern the strong wind gusts that blew embers to four other places, causing spot fires even across the nearby Railroad Tracks blocks away. When you get a tree that thats thats that high, especially eucalyptus trees, they they do, you know, put out a lot of embers and stuff and they burn pretty, pretty hot. And fire investigators say there are no power lines nearby. And it appears the fire started with the trees and then spread to the cars. Sounded like the tree was what caught on fire first. But also we know that there was some possible maintenance on the cars in the last few days, so that could have played a factor. Neighbors are now having to having to clean up the debris and also the damage that was done to some of the surrounding fences. I did speak with one of the fire investigators, who says that there were reports of a few people back in that area doing yard or Maintenance Work at the time the fire started. So theyre still trying to determine the cause. I also asked about the condition of the trees that were burned, and he says that he believes that they structurally are okay. So theres no concern right now, at least of them toppling over as a result of fire damage. Reporting live from hayward, Jana Katsuyama, ktvu, fox two news. All right, now to our weather. Pretty warm day across the entire bay area as skyfox flew over dolores park in San Francisco this afternoon. Down below, you can see a lot of people soaking up the sun on this thursday afternoon. Across town, people also out enjoying the warm weather at baker beach, jumping in the ocean to stay cool. Temperatures in the city well above average. Today. Our chief meteorologist, bill martin, joins us now with a look at some of the numbers and just how long the warm weather will last. Bill. Yeah, we are kind of winding down, at least on the coastal warm temperatures today. We did see a lot of mid 80s. We actually did pick up a 90 degree reading in pittsburgh. Temperatures are running well above the average. A good ten degrees warmer than they are typical for this time than is typical for this time of year. Santa rosa is a case in point 73 the average 86 today. Pretty warm. San francisco downtown 79. San francisco wont be as warm tomorrow. What were going to have happen here is the marine layer of the fog is going to start pushing back up the coast, even if the fog doesnt get here by tomorrow morning, the kind of southwesterly flow that northeast flow, that warm, windy conditions that weve had is going to get cut off and temperatures are going to start trending down. So as we head towards mothers day, a little bit cooler, but still pretty darn nice. We just had a heck of a run here the last couple of days. And as you look at the valley areas, you see that southerly surge start to develop. Its already im seeing some signs of it right now, but i think by tomorrow morning doesnt mean the fog may not be back in earnest into friday, but it will be definitely just offshore in those cool breezes will be coming in that will drop temperatures in itself, especially around the bay. Ill see you back here at full forecast in just a minute. All right. Well see you in a bit, bill. Thank you, President Biden. And First Lady Jill Biden returned to the bay area tonight.

President joe biden stopping in the bay area for the second time this year to raise money for his reelection campaign. You look at california, and california has historically right, been that atm of american politics. You go from Silicon Valley to hollywood, from the wine country to beverly hills. The president and first lady, jill biden, set to attend separate campaign receptions during the quick trip. Doctor biden and kentfield President Biden attending two fundraisers in the Silicon Valley friday, including one at the Portola Valley home of tech billionaire vinod khosla. Money is the mothers milk of politics, and it matters. And this isnt a president ial election where youre going to see north of 6 to 8 billion, spent billions spent on trying to reach voters in a rematch where the margins are razor thin. With six months to election day, biden and former President Trump have been neck and neck in recent polls. Both presumptive nominees filling their Campaign Coffers when they can. Palestine young peoples frustrations with the president and the u. S. Role in israel in gaza front and center on college campuses, both democrats and republicans know young voters could play a pivotal role in the election. We would expect to see a split screen of wealthy donors opposite protesters talking about what comes next for u. S. Foreign policy in the middle east. The difficulty, however, will not be conversion, and the difficulty will be turnout. And so youre going to see the money thats raised to really go to turnout. When biden last visited in february, he was met with protests in San Francisco. We need joe biden to call for a ceasefire immediately, and we need him to condition aid and stop selling arms to israel for the first time, biden warned the u. S. Would halt weapons shipments if israel launched an assault in the southern gaza. If they go into rafah, they havent gone in rafah yet. If they go into rafah, im not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with rafah, to deal with the cities, to deal with that problem. And while israel, hamas is a concern for many young voters, surveys show theyre also driven by issues like the economy and abortion rights. Now, the fundraising will continue for the bidens after they leave the bay area. The president will travel to seattle, the first lady to los angeles tomorrow reporting live at sfo. Greg lee, ktvu, fox two news. All right, greg, thank you for that. Now the president s visit comes one day after he publicly warned israel he will not supply them with weapons for a Ground Invasion of rafah. His announcement drawing strong reactions today on capitol hill, the president is only emboldening hamas. Were going to look at what tools do we have. And heres the first tool i have. Sit down with democrats and see if we can walk this back. The pentagon has already put a hold on a shipment of about 3500 bombs bound for israel. The president insists his support for israel is ironclad and that the u. S. Will still supply weapons for the jewish state to defend itself. We want to support israel. We want to make sure that the actions that they take to defend themselves and to stop hamas terrorism do not involve innocent people giving their lives and being injured. So far, cease fire negotiations between israel and hamas have gone nowhere, and the white house believes an invasion of raqqa will make it harder to bring hostages home. Tens of thousands of displaced palestinians are packing up and getting out of rafah, the place the Israeli Military calls hamas last stronghold.

Civilians, civilians are moving into already crowded areas seeking a safe place to stay, as well as food and water, while the president campaigns here in the bay area, his political opponents spent the day in a manhattan courtroom where Stormy Daniels testified for the second day about her relationship with former President Trump. As foxs Connor Hansen reports tonight, daniels spent most of the day defending her earlier testimony. I think youll see some very revealing things today and, i want to thank my lawyers. Theyve done a very good job. Earlier in the week, prosecutors questioned Stormy Daniels through a lengthy account of her alleged affair with donald trump, including explicit details when former President Trumps attorney, susan necklace had her turn, she aimed to discredit daniels, trying to point out inconsistencies in her past accounts of the encounter. Nicholas also questioned daniels about her motivations to get paid to stay silent, versus wanting to get her story out, and daniels was asked if she has continued to make a living off her encounter with trump. What there showing the jury now is that she had this economic motive all along, but also her credibility is in tatters. Youre a star. Testify in a fraud trial about the leader of the free world in his boxers, on a bed about to commit an extramarital affair that has no place in a fraud trial. Some legal experts say theyre still waiting to see smoking gun evidence. Prosecutors need to prove trump falsified Business Records to conceal a crime, like trying to influence the 2016 election. Each day, supporters of the former president have joined him in the courtroom, like florida senator rick scott. What he is going through is just despicable. Its a crime in this country to use the court system.
