Reporter hi there, connell the president s top advisors continue to insist the attack potentially directed by Qassem Soleimani against the u. S.

Prosecutors say they will argue regardless of the dropped charges he should remain in custody given the gravity of the charges he is facing. Attempted robbery, false imprisonment and two counts of battery. Those are serious charges. Reporter ahead of tomorrows decision, wallace lee is also speaking out. The group is opposed to the Navigation Center being built close to where the attack on camera occurred. We do have a Mental Health crisi and homelessness crisis in the city.

105 to 106. Good morning to you in santa claire ra. The first day of school for you. Were looking at plenty of sunshine, hot temperatures in santa claire ra, mid 90s. And you are under the heat advisory today. Well above average temperatures for this time of year in San Francisco. A high of 80 degrees. Oakland, 87. 97 in san jose. And 106 in concord. Highs about 12 to 18 degrees above average for this time of year. Ill let you know when well cool down and when the on shore flow kicks back in coming up. And tracking the travel time. So far, so good at this hour. You can see you are in the green with the exception of one commute headed through the altamont pass. Just barely above 30 minutes. 34 minutes headed out of the tracey triangle westbound. Good on the east shore freeway and highway 4 and 101. And the bay bridge is pretty much a ghost town. When is it that empty . Erybis hng the roadways with a little bit of a delay. Same thing at the san ma at a i dont bridge, moving along slowly
Can you . Not at all. Not even a trace of it this morning as the fog has socked us in. There are the the clouds that came rolling in. They kept us a little warmer, kind of insulated that heat of the day from escaping and cooling down. So we stayed warm. And we can see that in the effect of the temperatures right now.

And right now, sitting at 66 degrees in napa. Good morning to you there. Our wind is relatively light here. You can see variable directions. Concord about 30 Miles Per Hour. Everybody else, kind of 10 miles or less. And this is what were expecting. The cloud cover finally pushing away. But those of you at the coast, clearing out. Thats going to keep it cooler. But youll notice, there are going to be some 90s inland. Its not going to be all coolness out there for everyone. I would say a little cooler today. But relativ
