or sideshows is happening across the bay area. just three weeks ago, traffic on the bay bridge came to a stop because of a sideshow. overnight, a scene residents on california and divisadero streets are familiar with. this is not a bridge, but the tire marks tell a story of a neighborhood that has been crying out for help. >> all the cars and bikes running around at like 1 a.m. 2 a.m. wake everyone up. >> after multiple years waiting for a solution. this week, the city installed speed bumps, hoping this will stop the sideshows that torment this neighborhood. this worker who did not want to be identified, said they constantly come back to work. the morning after a sideshow to graffiti on their walls. >> the first thing you can see, because you have to cross the streets. the walls where i work vandalized. >> they're hoping the speed bumps will make a difference. >> i'm a fan. if it's going to stop these sideshows in 2020, supervisor asha safai introduced

legislation to combat sideshows in san francisco. >> it allowed sfpd to impound vehicles for 14 days after the first offense. after the second offense and even stronger penalty. >> you're involved in stunt driving in san francisco. we're taking your car for 30 days. >> our abc7 news data team looked into the latest incident reports and found that since january, there have been 24 stunt driving incidents reported in the city and 11 just last month, according to supervisor safai, not many cars have been impounded. multiple sideshows in san francisco this year and only five cars have been impounded, only five to date. >> and last year in 2023, only six. >> if this legislation is not stopping them, then what can? we spoke to oakland council member noel gallo. oakland has been fighting sideshows for years, so what is working for them in the neighborhoods, >> the planter boxes, cement boxes, the trees that neighbors have planning does deter the

sideshows from coming into our neighborhood streets. >> his message to san francisco. >> you know, it's worth the try. >> supervisor safai said his concern with the speed bumps is that it would shift sideshows to another san francisco neighborhood, a not fix the problem. he's urging sfpd to enforce the legislation. luz pena, abc seven news. >> louis, thank you. coming up on abc seven news at four, a warning for at&t customers. the data breach that could affect you, san francisco moves one step closer to zero emissions. the new ferry that is already out on the water and taking the devastation from a wildfire, and then creating something beautiful from it that the best summer plans come from the back seat. let's go camping! i want to see a dinosaur! let's rescue a puppy... a real one. let's go on a big family road trip! volvo plug-in hybrids. short trips on electric, longer trips on gas. mom, can we drive until we see the stars?

vessels to zero emissions, this ahead of a fast approaching state deadline, and that includes the launch of a passenger ferry that will cruise through san francisco bay. abc7 news reporter gloria rodriguez takes a look. >> so i'm inside the ferry right now, and on july 19th, it will run for free for six months. so you can try it out. it goes between here and pier 41, but today we got a sneak peek inside. see? change. the world's first commercial passenger ferry powered 100% by zero emission hydrogen fuel cells. it's a 70

foot catamaran ferry that fits 75 people. stakeholders gathered near the ferry building to celebrate this innovation. i think it's just appropriate that san francisco, which is a leader in so many things and especially when it comes to the environmen, is a leader in making sure that ferries become clean, because i think that was the one criticism of water transit. >> it was that it was polluting. and even though we have really cleaned by, by comparison, diesel boats, it's not nearly the same as having absolutely zero emission boats. >> that's not the only change coming. the angel island tiburon ferry company is getting ready to convert its boats to fully electric vessels. today, operators signed an agreement with a company from new zealand to design and build an all new vessel. the state is requiring all short distance ferries to be emissions free by the end of 2025. we're proud to be the supplier of the hydrogen system on board, which enables it to run with zero emission, the only

exhaust is pure water, so pure that you can drink it and there's a drinking fountain on board. >> so i invite everybody to do that as well. >> the ferry is owned by switch maritime and developed with support from a grant from the california air resources board, and made possible with the help of sponsorships and partners in san francisco. gloria rodriguez, abc seven news. >> and two men who helped spearhead the deal for new emission free ferries also met today discussing other opportunities. governor gavin newsom and new zealand prime minister christopher luxon got together in san francisco this morning. they're looking for other ways to further link california and new zealand economically. >> you know, california is some 20-17. this is the place that new zealand families save money for years to come, because it would mean gardens are going to come here once they come back at the end. >> today's gathering is just the latest example of california's commitment to international collaboration. back in april, governor newsom welcomed the delegation from norway, and during that visit, both sides signed a memorandum memorandum

of understanding to advance their climate and clean energy partnership. >> the 23rd regiment of the us marine corps has dedicated a new classroom and training center in san bruno. it's named for corporal freddie hollier, a marine who served in world war two, earning two purple hearts. the ceremony also honored corporal hollier's daughter for her and her husband's generous support in the project. >> welcome to our house, ma'am. now this is your house. okay thank you. for what? this heritage and training room has already done and will do for the marines and sailors and marines. >> the 23rd marine regiment also unveiled the new bar none bar, also dedicated to the corporal. the gathering place will be used for marines of all ranks to celebrate promotions, awards and honor their fallen comrades. >> all right, turning to the forecast now as we head straight into the weekend. a slight drop in temperatures, yes, but i'm

also eyeing that dry lightning possibility. >> sandhya? >> yeah, it's a 5 to 10% chance this weekend. it's a very slim chance, larry and kristen. but certainly temperatures will trend lower this weekend. let me show you live doppler seven right now. and i am happy to tell you that the marine layer is reestablishing itself along the entire coastline, which of course brings the higher humidity. we are going to continue to see the cooling as we look at the bigger picture here. there's an area of low pressure off the coastline that's going to keep the cooling going high pressure has shifted to the east, which is why the heat has begun to ease. but the rotation around that is drying up. the monsoon moisture, which is why the sierra is seeing thunderstorms right now. and there are red flag warnings until sunday evening for the sierra, as the fire danger will remain high due to the fact that the thunderstorms will bring very little to no rain. so the concern is there. fire weather watch for parts of southern california and northern california this upcoming weekend. a live view from our

emeryville camera. there's a lot of haze out there. certainly watching that marine layer just shrouding parts of sutro tower 65 degrees right now in san francisco, it is 70. in oakland, 88 in san jose, and 57 chilly in half moon bay along the embarcadero. we do have a nice breeze going in the 80s from santa rosa to petaluma. napa. you get inland and we still have those triple digits as we expected 104 in fairfield, 100 in livermore. here's the marine layer from our sfo camera overnight tonight, a mix of fog and clouds. your weekend forecast, the cooling trend continues. and early next week it's hard to believe, especially since we've been above average for so long. but we'll be near average in terms of our temperatures. let's go hour by hour. you will notice the marine layer increasing and also notice a monsoon moisture coming in from the south. as we go through tonight and into tomorrow. in the morning there will be some drizzle right near the coast. the other thing i want to draw your attention to is as that monsoon flow continues, those

thunderstorms and rain will develop across parts of the sierra. so that's the reason why we're keeping an eye on this for the time being. your morning temperatures definitely will come down 50s to 60s for most of you. you have to get well inland in places like antioch, where you'll be in the 70s. still tomorrow afternoon in the south bay, 89, in san jose, 91 for you in morgan hill on the peninsula, 74 in san mateo. mostly cloudy along the coast. low 60s. downtown san francisco, 67 degrees in the north bay. you're going to notice those temperatures coming down as well. 84 san rafael, 86, in santa rosa and the east bay low 70s berkeley, oakland head inland and it's 91 in walnut creek, 94 degrees in livermore. more in line with what you'd expect. the accuweather seven day forecast, temperatures going down some more sunday, monday into tuesday, and then a recovery for the second half of next week. right now, it looks like the heat will return by friday of next week. stay tuned to larry and kristen. things could change, but for the time

being, it's nothing extreme. okay. >> all right. thanks, andrea. >> all right. this is really cool. a new image from space as nasa celebrates the two year anniversary, the james webb telescope. >> this year's aids walk is just nine days away. on sunday, july 21st at golden gate park. the annual fundraiser benefits local hiv and aids programs. to register, call 415615 walk. that's 9255 or visit spot aids walk net ♪ do what you want ♪ get into an audi and go your own way. find your way to exceptional offers during the summer of audi sales event at you local audi dealer.

with director eric smith. the program scientist for the webb telescope uh. >> the penguin or the orange one was probably a spiral type galaxy that is being torn apart in the interaction with the egg or that round galaxy down below. so these galaxies will eventually, in about a billion years, merge together. uh. and this is in the constellation hydra. for those who want to know that. and it's about 400 million light years from earth. >> yeah, a billion years from now, we'll keep you posted with any updates. astronomers estimate the webb telescope will operate for at least 20 years. and we're getting a look at the finalists in the astronomy photographer of the year competition. there were more than 2500 entries from 60 countries. 31 made the shortlist. the competition is run by the royal observatory, which is in its 16th year doing these contests. this year's winners will be announced on september 12th, oh that's fantastic because you like you like the northern lights, you know, all about the northern lights. >> biased. yeah. nice

the president in a letter to colleagues, jeffries says he expressed the full breadth of insight, heartfelt perspectives and conclusions about the path forward that the caucus has shared. jeffries did not say if he told biden to remain in the race or drop out as president. biden works to calm anxieties over his mental fitness. sources say he's meeting with both the congressional hispanic and asian pacific american caucuses today, as well as the progressive caucus tomorrow. and when abc news washington uh- marist national poll found 50% of voters say if the election happened today, they would vote for president biden, that's up 1% from last month's survey, which was taken before the debate. >> the same percentage also said they would vote for vice president kamala harris or governor gavin newsom, though newsom did slightly better. >> several members of the san francisco democratic county central committee said they will throw their support behind vice president kamala harris if president biden steps down. i

spoke with dscc member bilal mahmood earlier today on our 3 p.m. show, getting answers. >> president biden has been an incredible president leader on climate change and abortion rights, and he's made incredible progress. and what's at risk now is that progress being rolled back. but unfortunately, what we're seeing over the last couple of weeks is that polling is going down and it is reflective of what we're seeing with our eyes. and so the seven of us on the san francisco democratic party wrote a letter asking that should president biden step down, that vice president harris be the nominee that's opposed to like an open selection process that george clooney and some others have called for? >> by the way, this group, dscc members, are not calling on biden to drop out. but mahmood says he hopes the president will step aside. former president trump will no longer be subject to suspension penalties on facebook and instagram. parent company meta says it's because he is a presumed presidential nominee. meta says members of

they know, like i did notice that there was more ice. i used to ask for a glass whether it was water or a soda or something with ice, and you get one little cube at the bottom of a glass like this. but you know, i did see small glasses of water, and they do like it warm. >> well, i'll say this if there's a shot glass involved, mine will not contain water. >> what about ice? >> yeah, yeah, well, the ice, we could negotiate that. sandia. yeah. >> i mean, you know, there should be the ability to get enough ice and water, especially if they're dealing with a heat wave. i mean, we were there once in europe during a really bad heat wave. they don't have air conditioning in some places. it's really tough. >> all right. now to a bit of history with your lunch. abc news reporter who remains unclear. oh it's danny knew. there it is. danny uh- introduces us to barry andric. he's the man behind sandwiches of history. some you might actually want to try today. >> we may eat grilled cheese, but in 1936. >> okay, let's give this hot cottage cheese sandwich a go.

>> you could have tried delights like the hot cottage cheese sandwich at least according to one of the many old cookbooks that barry andric famously explores on social media. >> you know, people have asked me, what are you going to do if you run out of sandwich recipes like, it's not going to happen every day? >> in his page called sandwiches of history, barry assembles a different sandwich from his never ending arsenal of vintage recipes pastrami, coleslaw for his more than a half million followers, barry may build something that sounds kind of good, like this new jersey sloppy joe from the 30s. >> we start things off with drained, flaked, canned salmon, or we may cook something that i have no idea how to feel about. >> like this 1967 recipe for a salmon french toast sandwich. >> the sandwiches of history today from the up to date sandwich book of 1909. >> but in late 2018, the channel first started with just a pdf of this sandwich book from 1909, a friend sent it his way after encouraging barry to start his own food blog. we just sort of looked through it and it was like, wow, this is kind of crazy. >> this would be kind of fun to

do. sardines, shrimp and oysters. >> who is this? his full time job? yeah. wow >> i have literally about one sandwich that i eat and that's about it. what's that, it's turkey, provolone cheese, little lettuce and pepperoncini on it. and that's actually ike sandwiches. they have one that's. i was going to say. >> isn't that named after you? >> it is named after me. but that's the sandwich i almost always have. i don't experiment much with sandwiches. >> you can't say i only i'm dan ashley and i only eat the dan ashley sandwich. >> but that was that was there. i'm not plugging it. that was long before he did that as a kind of a fun thing to do. no, that's what i've always had. every now and then. a peanut butter and jelly, but not very often. >> dan, there's nothing wrong with having the same old, same old. i can eat it. >> yes, i think i would have tried that french toast salmon. that sounds okay. but that. and what was it? the clam. oysters? anchovy thing. >> oh, something just don't go together. >> oh, i'll order a dan ashley to go, please. >> and you'll get turkey provolone.

woodworker in sonoma county who is salvaging that wood and

giving it a new life in people's homes, >> this is going to be a big wine bar, that's oak from the area. i never really had a father figure in my life, so i kind of always built benches and work areas in every house we lived in and kind of just self-taught on the woodworking and fell in love with it through the years. working with wood is just a natural thing for me. it's almost like therapy. it's something that's a great passion of mine. i remember this area before the fires and it was a lot greener there was a lot more foliage around, and so i'm just trying to save some of that wood and put it back in the homes of, of, you know, the community. my name is jesse olmos. i own sonoma woodworks, and i've lived in sonoma county for since i was about six years old. once the fires happened, there's been a lot of people that want to you know, meet a to salvage their

table or, you know, dining room table that, you know, people are going to sit around for years and years to come. it does take a very long time to dry the wood about five years from when i mill it till i build furniture with it. so it's not a simple process. it's, it takes a while. it's what all these stacks of wood around me are in here drying for their final year to, to be able to build furniture with. oh. nice one. i love working for myself. i can be around and raise my son, so it's been really good. he'd rather be, you know, at the soccer field or, you know, riding his bike or something. but, a few times my son has come and help, you know, and he's he's said, dad, we got to we have to do this more often. let's make it like an assembly line and get all these charcuterie boards for, get a whole pile of them. so i don't know. i haven't seen him back since, but we'll see. hopefully it will. we'll, start rolling like that. it'd be fun. and that's book matched when you open it up and they're identica.

i hope my customers see the passion that i have and what i build, it's, i'm somewhat of a perfectionist, i hope. i think i am. i've been told that. so i hope that shows in my work, i just really enjoy it. so i hope it shows. >> back in the day. yeah, we used to have woodshop make things. >> oh, right. it's a lost art. really? >> yeah. no, i mean, all the. you know, those crafts. yeah, it's it was good back in the day. yeah. >> forecasting weather is quite a craft as well as you know, to. >> yeah. don't comment on it. i was, i'm, i'm the restraint i'm showing right now is incredible. yeah. go ahead chris, let's talk about live doppler seven right now. >> we've got a well-established marine layer just off the coastline that is going to continue to increase, along with monsoonal moisture in the form of cloud cover for the bay area tomorrow afternoon will be a cooler day. partly cloudy inland, mostly cloudy along the
