6:18 pm
help erase a $220 million budget deficit. other local bridge tolls are not changing. golden gate transit bus and ferry fares also went up today by $0.25. like the golden gate bridge, they'll be going up every year until 2028. san francisco bay ferry fares are also increasing by about a dime each way. the ferry authority approved a 3% increase last year. several new state laws take effect today. bars and nightclubs have to stock drug testing kits so customers can make sure their drinks are safe. hidden fees have to be made more transparent, although restaurant fees are exempt, and california's new right to repair law means you'll be able to get the tools and parts needed to fix your own phone or other device. and we have a full roundup of all the new laws kicking in today. just head to abc seven news.com. >> the heat also kicking in today to can we kick it out? >> not quite yet. sandia not yet. >> ama and julian. it's going to be a long week ahead because we are expecting this heat wave to linger for days. so
6:19 pm
unfortunately we're going to have to deal with it. here's a live view from our east bay hills camera, and you can see a lot of haze in the air already. it's only going to get worse. so we do have a spare the air alert up for tomorrow. poor air quality inland, east bay and santa clara valley moderate elsewhere. wednesday, right now the air district is saying moderate air quality. here's a look at what's going to bring the heat wave. it's this area of high pressure building in and it's going to sit right on top of us for several days. so we are expecting that intense heat on wednesday. you will notice this will be one of our hottest days. temperatures up into the 110 degree category for places like concord and fairfield. you'll get there already in fairfield tomorrow from our oakland airport camera. seeing sunny skies right now 69. in the city it is 72. in oakland, 76 in hayward, mid 80s around san jose and 89 in redwood city. san jose is sparkling under sunny skies right now. it got hot today in santa rosa, 94 degrees napa 81. you'll notice 90s vacaville,
6:20 pm
concord and livermore. and from our pier 39 camera. beautiful day in the city. the week ahead. dangerous heat wave tomorrow through the end of the week. we're talking about high fire danger with gusty winds and low humidity and the heat eases on sunday. but we're not completely done with the heat yet. so let's talk about the fire danger index. it takes into account not only the hot weather, but the humidity and the gusty winds. the winds will pick up out of the north northeast that will dry out the atmosphere, and you will notice that the parts of the north bay go into the high to very high category of fire danger. tomorrow morning, that remains elevated for north east bay and also the santa cruz mountains. going into your wednesday. so as we go hour by hour, the winds coming out of the north northeast around the hilltops, that's what's going to be problematic. along with the dry fuels that are out there. it will remain breezy, but not terribly windy for tomorrow. the other thing to keep in mind is those higher tides are coming up, so believe it or not,
6:21 pm
there's a coastal flood advisory until 11 p.m. wednesday due to the high astronomical tides, minor flooding expected in the usual low lying areas, your morning temperatures anywhere from the 50s to the 70s. there will be some fog around near the coast, but it's going to be pretty limited tomorrow afternoon in the south bay 103, in los gatos, 98 in san jose, 97 in santa clara. many of these temperatures well above average for this time of year. 91 mountain view, palo alto, 97, in redwood city, low to mid 70s near the coast. this will be the best place to beat the heat, obviously 79 in the sunset district. 83 downtown san francisco a warmer day than today, no doubt about it. in the north bay 100. in san rafael, 106 in santa rosa, 109 in ukiah, heading into the east bay 93 hayward 91, oakland 95. fremont inland areas you're going to get steamy 109 in concord 110 in fairfield, 108 degrees in livermore. your accuweather seven day forecast. try 110 the
6:22 pm
next two days. that's dangerous heat with this heat wave for our inland areas. 90s around the bay 70s coast side. 4th of july is still sizzling. fireworks viewing should be all right. and then as we head towards the weekend, all right, the heat persists through saturday. but by sunday you drop down into the low one hundreds. and that repeats on monday 60s coast side. so finally the heat backs off by then julian and emma. all right. >> we're going to need it. yeah. thank you. sandhya. >> still to come here on abc seven news, some major problems for customers of patelco credit union. from cashing checks to checking account balances. next we have a look

6:31 pm
deal? well, change doesn't come easily. there the spanish word pescadero, loosely translated, means fishmonger. people in san francisco eagerly leave the commotion of the city to travel to this sleepy coastal town where folks do well, what they do. >> people like to see a town like this. if you notice down the main street, there's no center line and we just wave people around so you can double park like that for, you know, 15 minutes and people just go around you. if we had a center line, the visitors wouldn't know what to do. >> outsiders are tolerated on weekends and in the summer months. there are reasons to come. duarte's tavern and its green chile and artichoke soup for one, never leave without a slice of the ohlala berry pie. quite often, the popularity of this town lies in the acceptance that a fast paced life is often
6:32 pm
disconnected from nature. some end up staying you know, i'm so tired of living in los angeles. >> i just want to go somewhere where i can sleep in the woods. you know, maybe grow some vegetables. >> patrick horne did more than just move to pescadero. he chose to be part of its municipal advisory council that includes san gregorio, pescadero and loma mar. >> what would you change? you'd mess it up. >> rob skinner is also on the council. he likes that each seat is a voluntary position. they haven't had elections here since 2008. their only role is to advise their county supervisor in this case, ray mueller, who represents them before the board. >> we have absolutely no authority. anything we do of consequence has to be approved by the board of supervisors. >> but this kind of community representation is not about to change. what is being proposed
6:33 pm
is an advisory council, this time elected by the people in the area. seven seats in all. mueller believes having elected advisory council members will give them more credibility before voters as they tackle big issues like the housing crisis and the push for more affordable units. >> i need to know that i have community members who've been elected to weigh on those decisions by the community, have talked about those issues with the community, and that's going to give it more import at the county. when we go ahead and move forward with those plans. >> but the farm workers can't afford to pay for the food that they grow. they live in sometimes squalid, undignified conditions. >> horne anticipates running for the same seat he now occupies. >> i think it's a great idea. it's america and this is a democracy. >> but with democracy comes rules. things like financial disclosure, not to mention spending money on campaigning,
6:34 pm
something they've never had to do. why don't you think people would want to disclose their finances? >> in my case, i'd be embarrassed. >> it's too early to tell how voters scattered along the coast will take to these proposed changes. >> in fact, i don't even think they know anything about it. we don't have a newspaper, you know, there's no real communications here. word of mouth, bill bishop, who owns an art gallery in town, had a few suggestions, like, everybody talks to everybody and the coffee shop is a good place to learn things. >> what is the most exciting thing that has happened here in in ages? this might be it. >> well, yeah. this might be it, yeah. we haven't had many changes. >> change is never guaranteed. but when small town politics means giving your community a bigger seat at the table, locals here say they may be willing to try. so in november, residents
6:35 pm
there will be asked to vote on two matters. first, should these seats be elected by the people? and two, if the answer is yes, who would you vote for? now they need seven people to come up. i love small town politics. very nice talk about a representative democracy. >> right? seven people to represent 600. yeah appreciate it. thanks, liane. sure. >> well, the supreme court made a major ruling today about presidential immunity. they rejected donald trump's claim of absolute immunity, but did allow him some protection. >> plus how a fine of $200 million would actually

up and every other us president justices say a president has immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts, but not private ones. president biden addressed the court's ruling just a few hours ago. >> this decision today has continued the court's attack in recent years on a wide range of long established legal principles in our nation, from gutting voting rights and civil rights to taking away a woman's right to choose. to today's
6:39 pm
decision that undermines the rule of law of this nation. >> abc news reporter perry russom has a closer look at the court's ruling. >> in the six three decision. the justices ruling former presidents are shielded from prosecution for some acts, but not all. >> recognizing this kind of immunity, some absolute immunity for core presidential functions, some qualified immunity for other official acts. that seems to be what the opinion says is an enormous addition of new powers and protections to the president in a way we just haven't seen before. >> the case is tied to trump's january 6th election interference case. today trump says the ruling is a big win, even as he's been calling for absolute immunity for all acts since he was first charged in the case. >> a president has to have immunity. if you don't have immunity, you just have a ceremonial president with the opinion of the court, chief justice john roberts writes. >> trump asserts a far broader immunity than the limited one we have recognized in dissent, justice sonia sotomayor writes, the ruling makes a mockery of the principle foundational to

our constitution and system of government, that no man is above the law. after the ruling, the biden campaign with a dire prediction they just handed donald trump the keys to a dictatorship. special counsel jack smith, the prosecutor in trump's election interference case, not commenting today, his office and the department of justice now said to be reviewing their options, weighing acts that could be seen as official and which were not. >> trump will not get a trial before the election, and the american people have a right to that, innocent or not guilty or whatever. >> now it's up to the lower courts to look at this ruling and see how it applies to this case, delaying both the interference case and the classified documents case even further until most likely after the election. perry russom abc news at the supreme court. >> donald trump's former white house strategist, steve bannon, is starting his four month sentence for defying a congressional subpoena he reported to a connecticut prison today. bannon was convicted for not complying with the now defunct house select committee that investigated the january
6:41 pm
6th capitol insurrection. >> i am proud to go to prison if this is what it takes to stand up to tyranny. >> bannon fought his incarceration for more than two years until the supreme court rejected his emergency appeal appeal last week. >> the justice department is reportedly pushing boeing to accept a plea deal over its involvement in two deadly crashes. attorneys for the family say the proposed deal would allow boeing to plead guilty to a conspiracy charge for misleading the faa during its evaluation of the 737 max aircraft. the plane was involved in two crashes with hundreds of deaths indonesia in 2018 and ethiopia in 2019. under this deal, boeing would avoid a public trial, agree to appoint an external corporate monitor and be fined about $200 million. that is well short of the $20 billion families have been requesting. the doj is giving boeing until the end of the week to respond to that offer. a new airline is taking flight from

been here many, many, many times and will continue the legacy of this property in guerneville, cornell, bernard, abc seven news. >> all right. we need to get right back to the weather, because things are really getting a little very hot around here. >> yeah, we're talking about triple digits knocking on our door. we check back in with sandhya here. >> yeah. and julian and ama. it's not going to be just 1 or 2 days of triple digits. it's going to be all seven days of heat inland. now that's why we have an excessive heat warning for all inland areas starting tomorrow morning. running until saturday night. area shaded in orange, which is the bay shoreline and san francisco. going under a heat advisory. what does this mean? it's going to be hot enough to make you sick. so heat exhaustion and heat related illnesses, heat stroke are certainly possible. let's go hour by hour. some patchy fog tomorrow morning along the coast, but the rest of you, you're heating up quickly. by noontime, you're already in the 90s and 100 inland remaining in the 60s and 70s until the early afternoon, where you'll notice those temperatures topping out above 100 degrees.
6:49 pm
now, we're not alone in the heat. watches and warnings. you can see the alerts up and down the state over the next couple of days. as we look at live doppler seven. it's pretty quiet right now. we go into tomorrow afternoon and it's up to 108 degrees in livermore. 110 fairfield, 106 in santa rosa, 90s in oakland, san jose, 83 in san francisco and 70 in half moon bay. accuweather seven day forecast that heat wave starts tomorrow and it stretches for days, including the 4th of july. it's going to be sizzling. the good news is i don't know if you'd call it good news, but temperatures do back off by sunday and monday you'll be in the low one hundreds inland 60s around the coast and 80s around the bay. so i think by then everyone will definitely be ready after this long stretch. julian. all right, thank you. >> sandhya. >> checking in now with casey for a look at sports. a sad day here for donation. >> yes. andy is talking about hot temperatures. the warriors office in hot water right now as well. it's a tough time for warriors fans because one of the
6:50 pm
great warriors heading to a new team. but instead of being completely bummed out, we're going to take a look at some of klay thompson's most legendary moments
6:51 pm
6:52 pm
klay thompson has agreed to a three year, $50 million deal with dallas. the sign and trade
6:53 pm
sends two second round picks to the warriors. klay, a beloved bay area figure, a legend in these parts a four time champ, a five time all star, half of the greatest shooting backcourt ever heads to the mavericks, a team that was just in the nba finals. in hindsight, the comments of the dubs big three following their elimination hit a bit differently. >> now. we've been through the highest of highs and lows. whether it's losing a championship, winning a championship, missing the playoffs, we've been through everything together. so uh- that does mean a lot and uh- makes uh- grateful to have the times i've had with them, like done some pretty historic stuff. >> could never see myself, you know, not with those two guys. it's i understand this league changes and there's so many things that go into it and we're not going to play forever. but, you know, we've uh- experienced so much together. >> and yeah, i do have confidence until it's no longer, you know, the discussion of those three is to me is a much
6:54 pm
easier discussion when they're still good, which they are. >> they all showed that this year. so maybe in a couple of years we'll be having this discussion where, you know, they're not as effective. and maybe it becomes more of a ceremonial thing. i do think there's tremendous value in the three of them being warriors for life, man. >> the writing was on the wall, though. hey, klay did have a heck of a run here, though. in honor of klay thompson's epic tenure with the dubs. i thought it would be fun to just look back on some of our favorite klay moments, get a little happiness in here. nothing more legendary than the birth of game six. klay 2016 western conference finals. the warriors facing elimination. klay went nuclear. he hit 11 threes, putting up 41 points. the warriors ended up coming back from a31 deficit to win this series in seven. we can't forget one of klay's nba records. the most threes in a single game. klay knocked down 14 triples october 29th, 2018 against the bulls in the house that michael
6:55 pm
jordan built. and that's not the craziest part. the bulls were getting crushed. so klay only played 27 minutes in that game. he could have hit several more that night. klay has supreme confidence. even a bad shooting night can flip on a dime because when he gets hot, he gets scorching hot. in january of 2015, klay torched the sacramento kings for 37 points in the third quarter alone. that's a good night for any nba player on any night. he did that in one quarter. that's a record that still stands and klay went through a lot battling through a torn acl and a torn achilles, proving he's one of the toughest players out there. when he tore his acl though in game six of the 2019 nba finals, he reemerged from the locker room after being carried off and hit both of his free throws. that was crazy. and klay legendary for his two way play, but he's also one of the low key funniest guys in the nba. remember when headband klay was surprised by the legend? jackie moon is played by will ferrell. look at that showdown and klay is also known as a boat captain. but the
6:56 pm
guy also pilots a mean paper airplane. you guys during postgame pressers. he folds those things up and he lets them fly. sports on abc seven, sponsored by smart and final and the warriors just put out a statement. they said that they look forward to retiring klay thompson's number 11 at chase center some day soon. oh man. what a legacy klay leaves behind. he's heading to the dallas mavericks. warriors only get two second round picks back in the sign and trade. but you know joe lacob the warriors owner has always shown that he will spend if he has the opportunity. it's just right now they're they're sort of in cost cutting mode. >> yeah a bit of a bind for sure. yeah. we'll miss him. yeah we'll miss him. >> thank you. casey coming up tonight on abc seven, watch celebrity wheel of fortune at eight, followed by celebrity jeopardy at nine and ten, and stay with us for abc seven news at 11. remember that abc seven news is streaming 24 seven. all you have to do is get the abc seven bay area app, and that way you can join us whenever you
