are going to switch from a northerly component to more of a westerly component. it is mild up by the fire here, 68 degrees up in the north bay around geyserville healdsburg. 34% relative humidity and with very little wind this morning kind of settling some of the haze there in the smoke all throughout the bay. and then with that wind shift, it sort of gets pushed over into the east bay. and then as we get into your early or late tuesday night into wednesday, more of it settles from napa to sonoma. air quality is moderate. from san rafael to san francisco to san jose. it's actually pretty good right now in the north bay. but you can see for yourself. look at that. with all the particulate matter just kind of being pushed to the surface there. 59 in san jose, 54 in san francisco, and also from our east bay hills camera classic right there at the horizon with the pollutants 61 in fairfield. so if you are sensitive, we do have that air quality advisory. otherwise conditions won't be as bad today

because the winds are shifting and they'll continue to bring in some cleaner air. but of course, we're hoping for no more fires, even though it's still dry out there. yeah. >> definitely hoping. thank you lisa. and we are keeping our eyes on this incident in fremont . you see a clear commute despite an overturned tanker which is hauling salt water. it is closed. the ramp of thornton avenue to northbound 880. it's been the case since about 130 this morning. right now again, you're not seeing too many issues. and here is a look at drive times. 49 minutes to get from tracy to dublin, 17 minutes from dublin to mission boulevard, and then 16 minutes 101 to cupertino. i wonder if we can get some video of that issue that i was talking about. here's a tanker truck, though. you can see that it's actually off the freeway, so hopefully once they get that uprighted, they can get that out of the way and it won't be impacting traffic as the morning commute ticks up. here we are at 603. it's still an issue back to the desk. >> thanks, amanda. as you wake up this morning, we want to get you updated on the fires that

are burning across northern california. >> there are now three major fires. they are the sites fire in colusa county. the point fire in sonoma county, which is still forcing people to evacuate. and the arrow fire in calaveras county. >> and that's where we begin this morning. this is new video of that fire from overnight. the arrow fire is burning along the highway north of copperopolis right now. the area is under evacuation near highway four. just over 5000 acres have been scorched so far. there is no containment. >> the sites fire is the one responsible for most of the smoke we're seeing in our skies. it's burning about 60 miles northwest of clear lake, and so far it's burned more than 4400 acres, about six square miles with zero containment. >> that brings us to the point fire burning near lake sonoma. sonoma county has declared a local emergency tsay. evacuation orders are still in place this morning. fire crews have been able to hold the fire's progress. in fact, it's only grown about 100 acres since we talked to you yesterday morning. so just over 1200 acres total. it continues to be at 20%

contained. abc seven news reporter lena howland is on her way to that fire this morning. she is live in cloverdale at the citrus fairgrounds right now. lena >> hey, reggie. that's right. we actually did just get to the command post for this fire set up here at the cloverdale citrus fairgrounds, where it's actually shift change. and we've been seeing several fire trucks coming in and out of the fairgrounds over the last ten minutes. now, these fire crews are celebrating a great day yesterday because they were able to stop this fire from growing. they said conditions were much better. the wind significantly tamer. after surveying some of the damage, crews determined that two homes so far have been destroyed in the fire. a number of other structures have been damaged, but it's too early to say exactly how many, according to cal fire crews got better containment around the fire yesterday, mopping up hot spots along the way at raymond burr vineyards. taylor brinkman is grateful crews were able to hold back the flames and protect

businesses and homes in the area . >> so when i was here, there was a couple of spot fires that had kind of jumped through, from where the fire was actually burning. and there was one that burned just right behind that building, thanks to the firefighters who were here on the property last night. i think they're the reason that everything here is still standing. >> today, cal fire says they are planning to keep the same amount of resources on the fire as they did yesterday. they say crews will continue to reinforce containment lines, and they are also expected to conduct heavy mop up operations. live in cloverdale. lena howland abc seven news. >> thank you. lena, we do have an air quality advisory today. now that's actually an improvement. the main areas of concern are sonoma, napa and solano counties. it was a spare the air alert yesterday. so that was a worse. officials say people who have breathing problems should limit their time outside. and we're seeing more wildfires sparking up across the

state as the weather begins to warm this morning. there are 26 fires burning in california. 15 of those started over the weekend, and they've already burned more than 20,000 acres. you can track the fires burning across the state and here in the bay area with our abc seven news wildfire tracker. just click on the fire icon to learn the latest on each fire, including the acres burned and the containment. you can find it by going to abc seven news.com/fire map. >> happening tonight a major vote that could change richmond's relationship with chevron. environmental groups say the refinery should be paying to pollute. amanda the city council could let voters decide. >> kumasi the richmond city council is set to vote tonight on an oil refining tax. if approved, the measure would go on the ballot for voters in november. now, the push for the measure is being spearheaded by several local environmental groups. they point to health concerns in the community, including higher rates of asthma . the tax money also has the potential to raise 60 to $90 million a year, money that could fund clean environmental initiatives and public services.

the tax could also help the city fill a budget deficit. however, those against the measure say it could instead have unintended consequences. >> you know, we're down to nine refiners in the state. there's a time when we had 36, and so, you know, any sort of more pressure we put on these refiners, the more apt we are to put them in a position where, you know, california might not be a great place for them to do business. >> chevron is the city's biggest employer and taxpayer. the western states petroleum association believes relying on the chevron refinery could be a risky move if the business ever decides to leave the bay area. now this isn't the first time richmond is trying to pass a tax on oil refineries. back in 2008, voters approved a similar measure, but that was ultimately struck down in court a year later. back to you, the daetz kumasi. >> thanks, amanda. last week, the san jose city council approved a basic plan to tackle the homeless crisis in the city, and today they'll be considering how to put that plan into action. it includes continuing to evaluate nine locations for

sanctioned encampments that could eventually house up to 500 people. mayor matt mehan joined homeless advocates at the guadalupe river yesterday, moving unhoused people from along san jose waterways to those locations is part of the multiyear strategy. the sites could provide basic services like food, showers and caseworkers to help people. >> i believe we have to build basic shelter, including safe sleeping and safe parking sites for folks who are out here and when they're available. i believe we need to require that people come indoors and take advantage of them. >> the city is facing new pressure to find a solution. san jose says it has about a year to end pollution within its waterways and come into compliance with the clean water act, or risk fines from the state. >> candidates for mayor of san francisco are working to differentiate themselves from one another over a major policies facing the city they faced. often, they faced off in their second debate, hosted by the san francisco democratic party. the candidates on stage

included incumbent london breed, daniel lurie, the philanthropist and founder of an anti-poverty nonprofit, mark. also, mark farrell, the former mayor and supervisor. aaron peskin, the president of the board of supervisors, and asha safai, a san francisco supervisor and city planner. we hear from each of them on the topics most pressing to the city. >> we have helped build over 20,000 units of housing, and we have one of the lowest crime rates we've had in over ten years, not including the pandemic. >> we mean new leadership in our police department to grow our police department to fight for police department budget. i will do that as mayor. >> i'm the only one on stage that's held. nonprofits accountable in the areas of housing, education and employment. i've also built affordable housing on time and under budget, with good paying union labor. we can expand and do more affordable housing bonds, but we have to remember this city needs to remain a city for all san franciscans, and that includes working people. >> i have voted for over 100,000

units of housing in san francisco, from the bayview hunters point shipyard to rincon hill, central soma western soma park, merced, the eastern neighborhoods that takes bringing people together. you do this with neighborhoods, not against neighborhoods. >> more than a dozen people qualify for the ballot, but only the five major candidates were invited to take part in that debate. voters head to the polls, of course, in november for. >> good morning. as we take a look at our satellite picture, some of the high clouds off a system offshore will be visible today. and check out mount tam. the haze that is from the fires, a couple of them burning in the north bay. and as it drifts down through marin county and it stays up towards sonoma and napa as well, you're seeing that obviously even into the east bay at times 54, san francisco 59, and san jose at bay area air

quality alert, air alert, but not a spare. the air alert. and from our vollmer p camera, you can also see the haze and the particulate matter close to the surface there. 57 in concord. and as we look outside here, it is a hazy start. red flag warning next few hours it will expire into the northern sacramento valley. solano county still breezy to gusty as those winds switch on to an onshore component. the fog comes back tonight. the higher humidity returns, but we still have our fire danger index, which is showing how dry we're going to get from the north bay to the east bay, mainly above 1000ft into the santa cruz mountains. there, where it is only at about 30% right now, the relative humidity. so by 4:00 this afternoon, we're at about 17. by the delta. so we still have those winds blowing even though they're coming off the ocean later today. it's going to take another day for us to see some improvement. so there's a look at some of the high clouds today 60s at the coast. we'll see 70s around the bay shore and some mid 80s inland today a little hazy at times. >> an apology to address safety with the ceo of boeing is

expected to tell congress today. changing a controversial bike lane. the new design san francisco transportation leaders will discuss ferris wheel at the wharf. where is it, why it's temporarily closed

he's been arrested now, reggie. law enforcement sources tell abc news this happened last night in sag harbor, new york. that's in the hamptons. the arrest was for

dwi driving while intoxicated, or what we would call dui here in california. he is expected to be in court later today. that's when we could find out more information about the charges. timberlake is currently on tour. it's not clear if this will impact any of his tour dates. he has two concerts scheduled in chicago this weekend and two shows in new york city next week. he was in the bay area last month. of course, we'll keep tracking this story and bring you any updates. >> thanks, amanda. today boeing ceo is expected to issue an official apology for the company's recent safety failures. dave calhoun is set to testify in front of a senate committee, where he plans to admit to problems with company culture. he may face new questions after a new whistleblower came forward. just yesterday, a boeing engineer claims the company is cutting corners and losing track of parts that aren't up to design standards. he claims parts that shouldn't be used are ending up in planes. boeing has been under intense scrutiny since a 737 max flight had a door plug blown off

during a flight in january. the faa has ordered boeing to improve safety before it can resume normal production. new developments in the state case against david depape today could present a significant wrinkle in the second trial of paul pelosi's attacker. today, the judge will discuss a possible issue with the jury yesterday, abc seven news reporter stephanie sierra saw an incident where someone found papers they believed to papp's ex-wife, gypsy taub was leaving in a courthouse bathroom. there's concern jurors saw that material during a break. taub has attended both trials and has claimed the evidence against the pappas false. if a juror did see the material, the remedy could be anything from dismissing that juror to a mistrial being declared today could be a critical day in the effort to move the controversial center bike lane in san francisco's mission district, and a man at the board of supervisors could give their blessing.

>> yes. and kumasi, we certainly have been following this story for a while now. today, sfmta will ask the board to approve a conceptual design for a side running bike lane on valencia street. you may remember business owners have been trying to get the center running bike lane moved essentially since it was installed. they blame it for killing business on valencia street because of the removal of dozens of parking spots. each individual business owner would get to choose between two options for the new lane. one would put the bike lane between the sidewalk and their parklet. if they have one, the other would keep the parklet at the curb and have bikes closer to traffic. if the board approves the proposal today, detailed designs would then be presented at another board meeting. transit officials say that wouldn't happen until later this year. back to you. the desk. >> thanks, amanda. san francisco's effort to bring historically black colleges and universities to the west coast has taken a major step forward. a new initiative called back to stanford black to san francisco, kicked off a six week program, and i was there yesterday to help welcome the students. you

conditions from napa into sonoma today. and we'll be seeing some of the results, the aspects of that with those hazy conditions north of the golden gate. as we look at our winds, they'll be breezy again, but they will switch around to a northwesterly component instead of that northerly component as we look at the middle of the week, some cooler numbers for wednesday and thursday. we're going to drop off at least five degrees tomorrow for everyone, kind of recover for the first day of summer, and then pretty warm for friday into saturday, not only in our inland east bay, but pretty much everywhere around the bay. we'll see the temperatures come up friday, saturday 83 in vallejo, a smattering of high clouds out there, a bit of haze from time to time. last few days of spring here 68, san francisco 82. in san jose. the accuweather seven day forecast. we're cooling off for juneteenth and into thursday and then looking at that warmth building on friday, peaking heat on saturday and then cooler for the second half of the weekend. >> thanks, lisa. now we're turning to ginger zee, who's live with what's coming up on

morning. and lastly to southbound 880 in hayward before a street, there's a three car crash blocking the left lane. the backup is to washington avenue to the desk. now breaking news overnight, san leandro police in oakland fire responded to a fiery crash early this morning. >> you can see all the flames and smoke billowing from that car. this is on 29th avenue. it's near 10th street in oakland. we could see someone being detained by officers on the scene. it's unclear if that person was the driver. and right now we don't know if there were any injuries or how many people were in the car at the time of the crash. we do have calls into police to get some more information. >> developing news on the point fire in sonoma county while evacuation orders are still in place, fire crews have made progress in stopping it from spreading. abc seven news reporter lena howland live in cloverdale this morning. and you just got some updated information on the fire. lena >> kumasi. that's right. just a moment ago, cal fire put out

updated information for the point fire, and they said that the containment has been updated to 40. that's up from 20. where it was yesterday. now, today, cal fire says they are still planning to keep the same number of resources on this fire that they had yesterday. they are planning to reinforce containment lines and continue heavy mop up work. the point fire has already forced about 400 people from their homes and businesses. cal fire officials say yesterday was a big win for them because crews were able to stop the fire from growing in size. they said conditions were much better yesterday, with the wind significantly tamer. cal fire says the five helicopters in the air were a big help with water drops, but the agency says the aerial attack at night has made a big difference on this fire. >> the ch 47 over there and those were very advantageous of us to take control of those lower temperatures and higher humidities and give the ground

troops a something to work off of throughout the night. stopping these fires at night is going to help us in the future. >> after surveying some of the damage, crews determined that two homes so far have been destroyed in the fire. a number of other structures have been damaged, but it's too early to say exactly how many now we are expecting to get our next update from cal fire crews here at the cloverdale citrus fairgrounds at 7:00. that's coming up in less than a half hour. but again, the key takeaway this morning is that they are getting this fire more contained. containment numbers are up to 40% from 20% where it was last night. for now, reporting live in cloverdale. lena howland abc seven news. >> that is great news, lena. thank you. the biggest wildfire in the state right now is threatening 50 homes and the 53,000 acre sespe condor sanctuary in southern california . this is the post fire. it started burning in gorman in los

angeles county on saturday. it is more than 15,000 acres in size, and this one is only 20% contained. so here's some of the damage it left behind in gorman. it destroyed nearly two dozen cars at this auto repair shop off i-5. more than a thousand firefighters are working to put it out, so the crews are in there right now going direct, trying to put hand line in to prevent the fire from further spreading into those drainages. uh- ucla climate scientist says the wet, rainy seasons have grown a lot of grass and brush that's n fueling the flames. you can track the fires burning across the state and here in the bay area. with our abc seven news wildfire tracker, click on the fire icon to learn the latest on each of the fires, including the acres burn and the containment. you'll find that at abc seven news.com/fire map. while you were sleeping, russian president vladimir putin arrived in north korea to meet with kim jong un. >> putin vowed to deepen trade and security ties with north korea and to support it against the united states. it's putin's first visit to the country in more than two decades, and also

been living in the u.s. for at least ten years, they would be able to apply for legal permanent residence without leaving the country. some children would also be protected. the other program would streamline the process for young undocumented immigrants to apply for work visas. >> i believe that this could be the administration's way of showing, hey, look, we are very clear eyed about the fact that we need to restrict asylum, but that we also need to provide legal pathways for migrants, especially those migrants who have been here for many, many years. the president has been under pressure from immigration advocates after his executive order went into effect last month. >> strictly limiting asylum requests on the southern border. the american civil liberties union filed a lawsuit last week to challenge biden's executive order. critics claim biden's policy changes being announced today amount to a mass amnesty program. back to the desk. >> thanks, amanda. plan to expand title nine for lgbtq plus students has been blocked by a federal judge. the biden
