poor air quality caused by the point fire and several others, outside the county. actually, health experts are encouraging people to stay indoors if you're r, pregnant, or prone to respiratory illnesses. just be extra careful. given this poor air quality. let's check in now with weather anchor spencer christian for a closer look at the conditions out there. spencer. >> all right, dan, as you reported, we're getting a little bit of an improvement in the in the wind flow, which is helping the air quality right now. as we look at the current air quality, you can see yellows and greens indicating mainly moderate to good air quality. the smoke that had blown down into the central and southern parts of the bay area earlier this week by those northerly winds, is now being pushed out of the bay area largely because of more of a westerly flow. now winds are still gusty down around san francisco, sfo and on the coast, but look up in the north bay. the winds are still light there. that that is good for the firefighting effort. it's also that wind flow is also helping improve the relative humidity. but look at the air quality forecast for the rest of the week. we're talking about moderate air quality or in the north bay, the coast and central

bay, but good air quality, just about everywhere else for most of the upcoming week. now let's talk about the relative humidity, obviously still dangerously low in the north bay, under 20% at virtually all locations, but that westerly wind, that onshore flow is lifting relative humidity just a bit. and as we get later into the evening hours, in the overnight hours, as is typically the case, notice how the relative humidity will increase. so not only are we looking at increasing air quality, but we're looking at reduced fire danger. i'll have more on that in the accuweather seven day forecast in a few minutes. >> kristen spencer, thank you. in new mexico, a state of emergency has been declared for part of the state as a 14,000 acre wildfire burns south of albuquerque. the south fork fire has forced more than 5000 people from their homes and has burned 500 structures. it exploded overnight and crews are now worried about how high winds and extreme heat will affect progress. >> we'll keep tabs on the fire lines, but for a moment, let's move on as we continue to follow the second trial of david depape, the man accused of

attacking nancy pelosi's husband paul in their home today. >> the case went to the jury, but even that has not been without controversy. >> so true. abc seven news reporter stephanie sierra was in court today. she is live with the latest stephanie. >> yes, dan and kristen. the verdict is now in the hands of the jury. but leading up to that, a lot has happened. two separate incidents of attempts to influence members of the jury. and i witnessed one of them this morning, the website of david depapes ex-partner, gypsy taub, was written on the wall of a stall in the women's bathroom, and that website has been reporting false conspiracies about the case. and there's concern several jurors sawst night. a similar incident happened where a juror found some items, likely papers in the same bathroom with information attempting to sway jurors, bailiffs found it in the trash and confiscated it. today the judge ordered gypsy to be excluded the courtroom and

parts of the courthouse for the remainder of this trial. he said, quote, you have been attempting to influence corruptly one or more members of this jury. now, following the defense presented closing arguments, describing depape as utterly exhausted and confused and living a solitary and isolated life. refuting the government's argument that depape wanted to kill people like gypsy and others on his so-called hit list, the defense also tried to argue some of the charges are not applicable to this case, like aggravated kidnaping that carries a life sentence, stressing depape lacked intent to detain mr. pelosi. now, the prosecution used their last moments with the jury replaying the body camera footage showing the moments david depape struck paul pelosi on the head. with that steel hammer. now, as far as the timeline for the jury, we know they deliberated today for about 2.5 hours and just moments ago they have left for the day. so

we are expecting a possible verdict on thursday when court resumes. >> okay, stephanie, thanks very much. stephanie sierra reporting alameda county prosecutors appear to have jotted down homophobic slurs during jury selection in at least two capital murder cases. that's according to notes uncovered in a court ordered review of the county's murder convictions following allegations of discrimination against black and jewish jurors. a coalition of groups shared the new information on the steps of the alameda county courthouse in oakland. they're demanding 35 people convicted of murder in the county be resentenced. the allegations were uncovered by alameda county district attorney pamela price's office. >> these practices indicates that they were either accepted or outright encouraged. this level of prosecutorial misconduct in search of convictions at all costs. >> whyereafraid o and jewish jurors in death penalty cases? is it because of

of direct onshore flow bringing us cooler and more humid air, which is reducing, of course, the likelihood of fires developing and spreading. the wind flow right now is pretty gusty in most locations near the coast and the bay, up to 31mph. at sfo we have lighter winds, thankfully up in the north bay, santa rosa only eight mile per hour winds right now. so that also is helpful in the firefighting and containment effort. 24 hour temperature change shows most locations near the coast and bay several degrees cooler than at this time yesterday. so we'll move along and take a live view. and you can see that san francisco is down to 64 degrees. oakland 69. we've got 71 at hayward, low to mid 80s at san jose and redwood city, 57 at half moon bay. looking northward from the golden gate. a little bit of evidence of snow smoke in the atmosphere up north. but sky is bluer than it was yesterday. 86 degrees right now in santa rosa. petaluma 77, napa 78. upper 80s at fairfield, concord and livermore. and on we go to our forecast headlines. next two days will bring us cooler

weather with lighter winds. friday and saturday. sizzling summer heat develops. thursday, by the way, is the first day of summer, but we'll feel summer's heat more fully on friday and saturday and then into next week. a typical summer spread of temperatures, mild to warm at the coast, warm to hot going to the inland areas forecast to the future. animation for tonight shows that we'll get a few clouds developing along the coast and out over the bay as we approach the early morning hours , so the marine influence will be there, whether it's giving us that cooling effect tomorrow. overnight lows will be generally in the low 50s, and high temperatures tomorrow will range from about 58 at half moon bay to 62 here in san francisco. most locations around the bay shoreline will see upper 60s. 1 or 2 locations may top out at 70 degrees inland areas. upper 70s to low 80s 82 santa rosa 82 at antioch. but as we skip ahead to thursday, summer's first day, we'll see temperatures inching up just a little bit in our inland areas. but look at the increase in temperatures on friday. we're talking about mid to upper 90s inland. a few 100 plus showing up in the far

north, and by saturday we'll be looking at 99 to livermore, 101 antioch and several locations up in the far north at 103 104 degrees. so here's the accuweather seven day forecast. mild cooler, in fact, than average tomorrow for juneteenth. then getting a little bit milder on the first day of summer, friday and saturday. i told you about the heat, the heat spike that will occur those two days. temperatures moderate a little bit on sunday, but it's still going to be quite warm inland. and then we get a little variation of monday and tuesday, temperatures down a couple of degrees on monday and bouncing back up a few degrees on tuesday. >> okay.ight. thanks, spencer. >> google's silicon valley campus isn't just about tech, it's about something else taking flight. the protected birds that set up house there next and later the billionaire putting all of his money into a fight against social media

says. the rookery has continued to thrive, while others have faced ongoing pressures, including construction and increased traffic. >> but the colony does appear to be healthy. this is about 20% of the monitored population of great egrets in the south bay, and the numbers do seem to be good. >> and for visitors of all ages, it's a chance to experience the life cycle of these magnificent creatures with a true bird's eye view. >> it is so. the sounds are so beautiful that you could really just sit out here all day and just listen. it's so peaceful. >> just the behaviors. like it's really cool when you see, like the herons hunting, even though i don't know them, i don't know, like what kind of birds they are, but they really look cool. >> so i started taking pictures, a flight of fancy in a shady corner of the busy bay area. >> the santa clara valley audubon society has programs to help you join in all the fun. we have links for more information on our website just go to abc7 news.com. >> san francisco leaders call

our kids. yeah. on the other hand, how far do we go to ban something? yeah. that's tricky. well we're getting our first look at the official us olympic team uniforms. ralph lauren designed the opening and closing ceremony outfits and the village wear as well. they include the american classic blue jeans with blazers alongside the iconic flag sweater. you can purchase the uniforms from ralph lauren. the opening ceremony blazer costs $998. i think sometimes, yeah, i like the blazer. i don't want it for a thousand bucks, but. but you know, i will say what's nice at ralph lauren just for my money, spencer is, for lack of a better word, classy always puts out something that is sort of iconic and representative. not too much. yeah. good taste. >> i agree with that. very, very good taste and stylish. you know, contempora but not over the top you know. right. >> and that larry so much of a costume that you would never ever see in real life. it's something that the athletes might wear. yeah. yeah i think those look good. i mean, they're stylish but not way over the top
