carolina. >> it's just the tragedy, and, you know, you can only hope and pray for the families and the neighbors in that area. and the law enforcement that's involved, no matter the amount of training that we've had, doesn't prepare you to respond to an incident like this. >> a sense of disbelief also felt by saxby and his coworkers here in the bay area. >> two, we really didn't believe that what actually happened until we recognized his house and his vehicle and we started putting two and two together. >> a motor for wednesday night shootings is still unclear. in alameda, tim jones abc seven news if you're in the east bay, you are about to see a flood of chp officers in the oakland area. >> a year after deploying the highway patrol to help crack down on crime, yesterday, the governor announced he's quadrupling the number of patrols at least 20 chp officers will now be in oakland. seven days a week, according to the governor's office. so far, the increased patrols led to over 500 arrests and the recovery of nearly 1200 stolen vehicles.

moved off, we've got the clockwise flow around it to the south of us. and this is that subtropical moisture that is moving up from the south. so always a concern. we've got the vista fire, the lake fire, only to name a few to the south of us. they will be impacting us with a southerly flow, allowing for some of that haze to continue into the bay area. so we've got the cloud cover from the low clouds and then high and mid-level clouds with a shift from that area of high pressure. so that kept a lid on the atmosphere, kept the heat trapped and the pollutants trapped right now, at 63 in hayward, 69 in redwood city. and looking at some sunshine here, the shark tank, we will look for temperatures in the low to mid 80s today for parts of the south bay. so you had triple digits yesterday around morgan hill, los altos, the hills there, very warm spot. right now it's 72 in livermore, but upper elevations went from the 80s and 90s to the 70s. and seconds. so certainly making an of making its mark. the cooler air in the upper

elevations. not quite yet. we still have the advisory for the upper elevations for our heat, which we will certainly see today at mount tam mount diablo temperatures in the 80s again, but at the surface, much, much cooler. you felt that yesterday, the dense fog at the coast and we'll have the cooling trend not only continue today, but into your sunday and into next week as well. we have changes at the end of next week, but overall temperatures trending down towards average. here's a look at all that cloud cover it tries to thin out throughout the afternoon, and it will, but we'll see. partly to mostly cloudy skies at times. and then your sunday is looking sunnier, but not at the coast. we'll have a lot of fog there. here's a look at that southerly flow at the surface, allowing for the upper level smoke. here. look at the oranges. the bright color indicates the haze and as we get into an onshore flow, a stronger one, we'll begin to see the atmosphere clean out and have better air quality. there's a look at the sea breeze, that delta breeze already up towards about 30 miles an hour over that

today. and then for your sunday, just as strong. and so that is really putting us in a typical summertime pattern. here's a look at midweek. we'll be in the 80s and 90s. so very pleasant with temperatures in the 60s. the clouds at the coast each and every morning into thursday. we get slightly warmer some mid 90s. we're back into some upper 80s in the north bay to near 90. this will be the hottest day of the week on friday where we get into the upper 90s. it looks like perhaps that high pressure ridge that went away might be coming back the end of the week. 80 today in fremont. that's a good 10 degrees drop or upper 70s in san rafael, low 80s in san jose to the mid 80s and some low 90s inland. here's a look at your accuweather seven day forecast. the cooling trend continues today. partly cloudy and into your sunday. as we get into monday. little change. we have that wide range of temperatures near average through the middle of the week. and then we begin a warming trend. it's a modest one as it takes us through the end of next

week, but it could get stronger. it's a little too soon to tell, so we'll just enjoy the next seven days. >> all right? and thursday looks to be a hot one back in the 90s. could be okay. thank you lisa. well just ahead the princess of wales to make a rare appearance this weekend. it would mark her second public appearance since announcing she has cance when we're young, we're told anything is possible... ...but only a few of us go out and prove it. witness the greatness of anna hall on a connection worthy of gold: xfinity mobile. only xfinity gives you the most powerful mobile wifi network, with speeds up to a gig in millions of locations. and right now, xfinity internet customers
