We are doing it for those people. The service has been the worst that i have seen it in these 26 years and it is because they are not getting proper staffing, people are leaving retiring, and they are not feeling those positions. The public is suffering because of that. And they cant file their papers, it will take longer and basic services that we have been providing for years are taking are suffering.

Welcome back. The wildfire keeps growing. The marin county sheriffs says 2200 acres has burned thats 3. 5 mi. 2. Just yesterday there were 600 acres. You are near the fire line, what is it like . Yes, there is some smoke in the air. And, there are a lot of fire personnel. And we are joined by Scott Maclean to give us a very the very latest. The latest numbers, are that it stands at 2200 acres. You were telling me that there were concerns about this fire behavior. And, this has been difficult. As you can see, how steep the country is. Can you imagine getting into a dozer and trying to cut line. In trying to climb those. And they can only park though so close. And they may not get to that area where they need to start working for a couple of hours. And, it was reported around 4 30 pm and it was 200 acres. What has changed overnight . How to grow quickly . It is it due to the location . We have a lot of factors here. 200 acres initially. But most of that spread and growth developed before nightfall. Because of that terrain, but also them emphasizes the growth. As the fire may start at the bottom but heat rises. So it is preheating that which draws out that fire quickly. You have a bunch of different draws in canyons which direct that fire. Then you have a little bit of a breeze. Not much predicted. It helps push that fire a little bit you said you are concerned about that northside why is that park . We are getting significant wind coming up. And, that could push it even further to the north. We have had some evacuations and if i remember, about 35 homes possibly endanger. Roughly about 100 individuals. Has that changed at all . Are there any new homes are structures in danger . Not at this time. It is heading north into a sparse area. And in terms of containment strategy what are you looking forward to . Were going to pound it with the aircraft. Have a significant amount of aircraft. We will be using this. In a combination with the aircraft to get those drops to slow down. And our Ground Forces are trying to get into the head of that fire can get there and get work done. And now that the sun is up, any idea on timeline . Probably an hour and a half. 4 thank you so much. Reporter thank you so much. We will check in later. You have heard the strategy is to hit this as as hard as possible. You have heard that they are looking to get airdrops on this today. There were helicopters are yesterday. You can expect to see more out here today. Some minor evacuations. No word on more those at this time. More campgrounds and one area so far evacuated as a result. We will continue to monitor the fire progress. One of the things that he told me right before we went on is that you cant really see a lot of flames at this point it is that smoldering. But you heard what he said, as this fire moves upheld it kind of preheat step vegetation. So it is primed to go once it ignites. Thank you. Officials say that this wildfire in Monterey County was started by in illegal campfire. The campfire was left burning at a part of the state park that is not open to the public. They also say that the hikers who were rescued last week were too far away to be blamed for the fire. Now, they want anyone with information to come forward. Investigators say if they find whoever started up fire those person or people could face serious criminal charges because a bulldozer operator died while fighting that fire and 57 homes have been lost. It has now burned more than 44,000 acres. It is now 25 contained. And, the criminal safety pipeline begins its fifth day of deliberations. If found out if convicted pg e will pay a maximum of 6 million. That is down from the right hundred 62 million fine that prosecutors originally wanted.

How does it look like we have a goodlooking ride. Although, one pocket of slowing but i am keeping track of here in the east bay. It will go right to those maps. If youre traveling southbound on 880 coming through castro valley, you can see right there that you have an accident that is southbound just before you get to the interchange of highway 92. This crash has been cleared to the shoulder of the freeway. But as you can see you have residual slowing. So be aware southbound 880. You have a crash or slowing that you will encounter. Let me show you what we have. They can say, things moving pretty nicely. We do not have the backup going through the maze. It is not a bad time to make that trip into San Francisco. Down to the south bay a quick peek through san jose moving quite nicely into the downtown area no major accidents reported at this time, we will keep tabs on that situation as we move throughout the morning. Steve here now with a look at your forecast. Today is much like yesterday i guess. But tomorrow. Yes, a cooler change. Thank you. Lower clouds and fog were not much of a story here.

No enhancement of an onshore breeze. Both of these are north. A little bit of a component with this westerly breeze. Santa rosa says we are a cool 48. And i saw this at 49. Speaking of cool, down in monterey. And, a conduct. It will decrease and pick up tomorrow as it drops in. And this will bring in when temperatures down. That is tomorrow.
