relief and gratitude to both see him and hear him. something about that multisensory was really overwhelming, he's alive. assuming this video is current, which we believe it is, he's alive to people who are watching this to remember that there are 133 persians. >> every single person there has a family. no matter who you are. this could be your son. this could be your grandfather. this could be your daughter, your sister, your spouse. and it's time. >> goldberg poland is one of five u.s. hostages is us israeli hostages in captivity. his parents went on to say they are relieved to see him alive, but are concerned for his health and well-being. ryan curry abc seven news thank you, ryan. >> this morning, there's growing outrage over traffic changes proposed in san francisco's west portal neighborhood. this is a story we've been following for weeks, since a crash that killed an entire family at a bus stop.

the city believes the changes will improve safety, but as abc seven news reporter j.r stone found out, some residents believe this proposal will only end up hurting their community. >> i'm sick to my stomach about it. >> lifelong san francisco residents sounding off with business owners in this west portal neighborhood about an sfmta plan to change traffic laws at and around this intersection. >> there's so many merchants here who have already battled covid in a business way, and now they're going to have to battle something new. it'll be the nails in the coffin for somebody. >> do you think this is going to hurt businesses? >> it will hurt business. >> i do believe the proposal would do away with left hand turns in this area and make nearby lenox street a one way changes after this entire family was killed when a driver went off the road and hit them at a bus stop last month. this tragic, tragic accident should not be utilized. >> opportunistic to try to slam this thing through. and that's what's happening. and you know, that is a block and a half away from what they're talking about

redesigning. that's just not right. >> the sfmta would not comment on this matter publicly wednesday, but released video of this interview done last week about the matter. >> we're hopeful that the changes uh- by restricting the left turns of the intersection, will dramatically help reduce the conflicts, improve the pedestrian experience, while also at the same time supporting access to the west portal commercial district. >> but multiple business owners i talked with pointed to the redesign work. the sfmta did with valencia street recently in the mission district, putting bike lanes in the middle of the road for safety reasons. business owners there say business has been down dramatically since the changes. there are now worries of the same problems here in west portal. >> like this was a knee jerk reaction to a terrible tragedy. it needs a little more thought. >> this a really dramatic change. and they put it out and they said, there's ten days of comment that's really inappropriate. how does that prevent someone from speeding or going up on a sidewalk?

>> so even though they want to change the street, it wouldn't prevent anyone from doing exactly what the lady who crashed into that family of four did. so i don't see the connection with those with the sfmta, say on the direction of mayor london breed and supervisor myrna melgar. >> they are moving quickly on this plan and will work closely with merchants to make sure their needs are met in san francisco, j.r. stone, abc seven news and friends of the family of four killed in last month's wrong-way crash along west portal have reached their fundraising goal. >> they've collected more than $8,000 to pay for a memorial plaque and memory of the victims. the plaque will be installed in dolores park to honor diego cardoza de oliveira. matilda ramos pienta and their two children. the driver in this case has not been charged. >> if you're not happy about a plan to crack down on parking in san francisco, you aren't alone. today, sfmta workers will rally against the impending operation. they say they're worried it will

lead to parking officers being assaulted by upset drivers, and they want management to do more to address their concerns. as the mta announced the crackdown last week as part of an effort to improve safety for people walking. it would include more tickets for people parked on sidewalks, bike lanes or too close to crosswalks. >> investigators say a car explosion that shocked a daly city neighborhood appears to be an accident. the blast blew up a toyota on west line drive yesterday morning. you couldn't see it, but that was the sound of the explosion on surveillance video from a nearby home. the fbi bomb squad and daly city police all rushed to the scene. investigators spent hours combing through the wreckage. different items are pulled out of the car, including a propane tank. >> it's just kind of weird why? you would have a propane tank in a car like that sitting there. it's not hot. temperature you're trying to think of what things could detonate a propane tank. >> police said it appears this was an isolated incident and

there are no ongoing threats to the public. and nobody was hurt. >> 5-10. this morning, we're going to san jose where you can see a live look outside. we have partly cloudy conditions here. live doppler seven along with satellite showing you along the west coast. you see this dip in the jet stream? this is a trough that is sitting over california supplying the cooler than average air throughout the day, and also the marine layer in the morning. there's actually some rain falling in l.a. this morning. we're also tracking a cold front. this will move through here late tonight, through the day tomorrow, and it will kick up our winds. you'll feel that mainly tomorrow afternoon. look at the morning commute. it's again. we have our marine layer overhead. a lot of cloud cover, a little bit of sunshine trying to peek out around 10 a.m. but temperatures pretty steadily staying in the 50s. let's break the forecast down. region by region, inland. we'll see a little bit more sunshine than yesterday. upper 60s to near 70 degrees around the bay shoreline. and we'll find those temperatures below average in the low and mid 60s

if there's been any coordination , but that's kind of how the political dynamics shape up in this case, that the person who actually came in first, might like to have a two person race rather than a three person race in november. >> padilla is paying for the recount, and it was thought he could be reimbursed if low won, but because of the unusual circumstances, he will not be refunded no matter the result. in this situation, one of the election codes actually says that you cannot get a refund if the two candidates were entitled to be on the ballot in november, and both of them qualify to be on the ballot in november, so there's no refund. both santa clara and san mateo counties say they are nearly done with the actual recount. san mateo county is working with usps to figure out if about a dozen ballots were sent by the election day deadline. a decision is expected within a couple of days. amanda. >> all right. thanks so much,
