now, dangerous ash pots. >> if a tree burns and the stump is under ground where the roots are, that can burn under ground. but it can be a three or four foot deep ash pot that's very hot. and they're around the homes and things like that. we don't want to let people on their property and have them fall into one of those. >> the detwiler fire is 30% contained now. crews contained two separate brush fires off skyline boulevard in the peninsula. they broke autojust south of page mill road about a mile southwest of portollo valley. they only burned an acre total. fire crews say if it had been windier up there, things could have been much worse. another warm weekend as we look live toward the east bay. nothing but blue out there. plenty of warm weather as well in the east bay, warm weather

jose 92 degrees. and it's not going the change too much. while we don't have red flag warnings posted in the bay area, there are warnings posted in the sierra for much of tomorrow because of a thunderstorm threat. dry lightning could spark fires with the high temps and low humidity, that could be bad news. and outflow from thunderstorms could produce winds up to 50 miles per hour. so fire

officials are keeping everybody safe. >> if your sunday plans have you crossing the golden gate that morning, you might want to think again. it's the san francisco marathon. and the bridge belongs to runners. not cars for a few hours. >> we are encouraging people to change your plans if you're thinking about traveling northbound on sunday. leave way earlier or after the race -- after it's reopened. if you're thinking about traveling around. we encourage people to use lift. >> road closures begin at midnight from the embarkdero start line and stretching out. the full shut down is from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. there will be no northbound traffic. and reduced lanes southbound. it's the first time this has been done for the race. and local law enforcement, race be safe than icials agree, sorry. >> you're trying to control the traffic. we've seen in the past what's happened in the uk, they've been using vehicles as weapons and so, you know, they're going to take all the necessary precautions to try to avoid any vehicle traffic whatsoever if they feel that's the appropriate thing to do to eliminate that part of the threat. >> kpix 5 security expert jeff harp says those car driven terror attacks we've seen abroad are less likely with the closure. and southbound traffic will be so backed up a car likely couldn't drive fast enough to do much damage. runners say this closure gives them the peace of mind they're going to need to tackle the race itself. >> i'm scared of the hills. once we cross the golden gate bridge, it's uphill all the way to golden gate park. >> whether you're running or driving during it on sunday, there's a map at thesfmarathon.com. click on the traffic portion and they have interactive maps for us behind the wheel as well as those

with a preview of what to expect, katie? >> reporter: juliette, tomorrow's game is expected to be a near sell out crowd. but because it's not a 49ers game, that means the theme park right next door, great america, will still be open. the 49ers made a deal with the theme park a few years ago on game days great america would close meaning fans could use the parking lot and after the game police would allow cars to go the wrong way on great america parkway to get traffic on to the freeway faster. because great america is staying open, none of that can happen meaning traffic could be reminiscent of the first 49ers game at levi. >> now they closed the roads. they're having all these games here and stuff. it's ridiculous. >> a full staff of police from santa clara police department as well as the highway patrol will be on hand to help not just with traffic but also security. i spoke with the santa clara police department a little earlier today. they said they've been working with federal intelligence officers, especially in light of the manchester bombing at the arianna grande concert back in may. so far they've not heard of any credible threats to the soccer game. but of

stolen mail. investigators say the mail trucks were broken into, back- to-back days last week in willow glen while the carriers were delivering letters by hand. the post office sent warning letters to 350 homes urging customers to keep a close eye on bank statements. >> living in an area like willow glen, there's an expectation of security. especially when it comes to something like your mail. i think having that breech in the neighborhood is kind of a little bit scary and a little shocking. >> police say they're still investigating in the robberies are the work of one person or a group. a man who police say sped away from a dui check point is under arrest in santa rosa. the suspect was waiting in line at the check point last night on morgan street and then drove off and led police on a chase. ultimately he crashed into an exit gate at a parking garage. then he tried to run away, officers caught up and he's facing several charges including dui. it's a common sight at parks. sand

playground i've been to. >> there are 72 playgrounds in san francisco. a small number of them have sand. and pretty soon, none of them will. >> we often time face the issue such as sharp objects, broken glass, even cat feces. in our sand boxes throughout our playground. >> the city says sand boxes have become safety hazards. back in 2015 vandals trashed delores park's playground leaving dozens of broken bottles in the sand. they made a choice to phase out all of the city's sand boxes. mountain lake park reopened last month sand-free. >> i do like not having sand. >> panhandle playground is next. >> my older son started crying and saying he wanted sand. >> jennifer hine a teacher and mother of two has read literature showing sand provides an educational out let. >> she and james of the council say the recreation and parks department kept the public out of the loop when they settled on a sand ban. they worry officials are focused on keeping costs low instead of keeping kids happy. they plan to keep fighting. >> i don't expect as much sand as there is now. but i expect a sand element. >> christin ayers, kpix 5. well, today, we've got numbers that warmed up from yesterday's

wild care. i suspect it's consistent across the bay area. >> spokesperson alison says wild care usually gets 40 to 60 skunks a year. all ready this year, they've passed that total with 75. and no sign of stopping. she's fostering five. and with that many skunks marooned or orphaned, everyone plays a part in raising them. >> i have them old enough so they can spray. but that hasn't happened yet. and they don't know me per se, but they understand the routine. they know when i'm coming and i open the cage they're used to associating that habit with eating. >> the spike was caused by the wet winter. that made skunks food source thrive. while the species is infamous for their defense mechanism, wild care says they make great neighbors. >> the things that dig through your lawn and eat your flowers, your skunk friend is eating those things. and the rats and the mice that run through your yard. if you have a skunk in the yard or the neighborhood he's doing a really good service for you. >> but when they're rescued this young, they start out on formula and get fed every three hours and then move to real food when they're this size. eventually wild care teaches them to forage before reintroducing them to the wild. >> if you find baby scopings, bring them here to wild care. in san rafael, emily turner, kpix 5. straight ahead, drag racing with drones. a first of its kind

firefighters, drones have been getting a bad wrap. but the aerial sports league is out to change that. 16 of california's fastest drone pilots gathered in san francisco for the first officially sanctioned drone drag race. the rules are simple. follow the racetrack along the blue line and go through the red rectangles as fast as you can. the drones are insanely fast, finishing the quarter mile track in seconds. 103 miles per hour. >> mark is the ceo of the aerial sports league and said sporting events like these helps put drones in a more positive light. >> not only are they seeing drones being used for sports and games but they're being used in education, in science and engineering programs. so the stem possibilities and the educational possibilities in addition to these kind of sporting events have really made drones mainstream. >> pilot levi dickson is one of the heavy favorites and says drones are moving out of the fringe realm of geeks and nerds. >> now they've seen it on tv. they hear about it on the news. and they come up with interest. not privacy concerns or thinking that we're trying to look at their backyard. >> by the way, there's one final important rule. don't crash. take it from the youngest pilot here, 11-year-old ashton gamble. >> it's important not to be over confident. because if you're too confident, then you might start going fast but then you
