ceo of youtube and helped the founders of google. how she's being remembered this morning. and the vice president will land in san francisco later today for a fundraiser this weekend. and she's getting good news about her polling in those pivotal swing states. good morning to you. it is saturday, august 10th i'm zach fuentes. let's start with a quick, quick look at the weather. here's meteorologist lisa argen. good morning. >> hey zach. good morning. we're getting some sun around the bay. but starting out with live doppler seven. and you see the cloud cover offshore. some of it's the marine layer. some of it is high level clouds. but it's sunny in the east bay. the north bay is brightening up the peninsula, still rather gray and above the marine layer from our sutro tower camera, you can see those high clouds 63 in hayward, 65 in the south bay with only 54 downtown and a look at the numbers in our inland valleys where the sun has been shining in the mid 60s, 57 up in the north bay. so as we get towards the 10:00 11:00 hour, it's in the mid 70s. it's a quicker warm up today in our inland valleys, where we'll see highs reach the
9:02 am
mid 90s. it's another warm one there, while we'll see a pleasant day from san mateo to mountain view. but it's going to be in the mid 80s for you in san jose. the jazz festival today is the warmer day out of the weekend. the fog comes back, the breeze kicks up, we've got a cooler sunday and a cooler start to the week to plot out for you. zach. >> lisa. thank you. vice president kamala harris is making her first trip to the bay area since she became the democratic presumptive nominee for president. harris has been speaking in front of huge crowds all week, but it will be a much more intimate affair when she appears at a san francisco fundraiser tomorrow. the event is going to be held at the fairmont. tickets to tomorrow's fundraiser start at $50,000 for a photo with harris. half $1 million gets you at the head table with vice president harris and the vice president getting good news. this morning, a new york times poll released overnight found her leading in three key swing states. vp harris leads by approximately four percentage points in pennsylvania, wisconsin and michigan. those numbers are
9:03 am
around the margin of error, and she held large rallies there over the past week. harris's running mate, tim walz, also had higher favorability ratings over trump's running mate, jd vance. former san francisco mayor willie brown will be at the fundraiser tomorrow, and it comes as he shuts down claims from former president donald trump. now, trump claimed he and brown were both on a helicopter when it made an emergency landing. >> i have never traveled anywhere with jerry brown or even the good man that's running for the republican nomination in any kind of a helicopter. never happened. period. and i think my memory is probably better than his. >> the question came up when trump was asked about brown's relationship with harris in a news conference thursday. now, the new york times reports trump may have been referring to former governor jerry brown. politico says he may have been referring to nate holden, a black lawmaker from los angeles
9:04 am
who says that he was in a near helicopter crash with trump in the 90s. well, new this morning, former youtube ceo and one of the first google employees, susan wojcicki, has died. she's one of the most prominent women in tech. the santa clara county native stepped down from her role at youtube in 2023, a position she held for nine years. her husband confirmed his wife's death in a facebook post, saying she had non-small cell lung cancer for two years. she was also involved with google from the earliest days, when two of the founders worked out of her garage. the current ceo said. wojcicki was core to the company's history. she was 56. also new this morning, a longtime east bay politician has died. ellen corbett spent decades in the political world, most recently as the ward four director for the east bay regional park district. but she was also the former state senate majority leader as well as an assembly member. she served as the mayor of san leandro as well. according to the east bay times, flag at the parks district's properties will be flown at half staff in her
9:05 am
honor. the cause of death wasn't announced. she was in her late 60s. well, happening now, the governor is in san francisco touting the newest fleet of electric trains. those trains are more environmentally friendly and making traveling easier and quicker for caltrain passengers. the governor says these trains will release less air pollution than the current ones, and the new trains will have newer amenities as well, including wi-fi and outlets. in every seat. because electric trains can accelerate and slow down faster than diesel trains, they'll be able to make trips quicker and more frequently. the aim with these is that some of the trains can travel between san francisco and san jose in less than an hour. the first train leaves tomorrow with more rides being added each week, and by september 21st, caltrain says there will be full service on these trains. well, the man charged in the death of popular oakland baker jen angell will go to prison. an alameda county judge sentenced ishmael burch to seven years as part of a plea bargain. this is a photo from last year. burch was driving a
9:06 am
getaway car when an accomplice grabbed angel's purse. she tried to get it back and was dragged some 50ft. she died days later. the sentencing comes despite the wishes of angel's family and friends, who wanted a restorative justice framework for the now 20 year old. they issued a statement yesterday saying, quote, we know that jen would not want someone involved in her death, whether complicit or not, to waste away in prison for decades. and we take some comfort in knowing ishmael has a chance to repair some of the harm he has caused. a rising star of the san francisco political world, now charged with rape, will stay in jail for now. john jacobo was back in court for the second time this week. a judge will revisit his bail at a hearing next week. the former nonprofit director resigned from his job in april over sexual assault allegations he's accused of sexually assaulting a housing rights activist. three more women filed police reports against jacobo. his attorney claims the charges are politically motivated. >> a previous district attorney's office looked at this case and decided not to file. so
9:07 am
there really is a lot of problems in terms of the lack of credibility of the alleged victims that have come forward. mr. jacobo is innocent and he asserts his innocence. >> in a statement, the attorney for the victim wrote in part, quote, when survivors make the brave choice to come forward, it's essential that we believe them and that we empower them to understand and enforce their rights as victims of crime. otherwise, survivors will not feel safe to come forward. this morning, we're taking a look at the results. two weeks after governor newsom issued an executive order that led to multiple homeless camps sweeps, the order came on the heels of a supreme court ruling that gave cities more leeway in clearing encampments. and we've seen tents removed, rvs told to go someplace else, even a directive to offer people bus tickets. abc seven news reporter tara campbell has more on a key court ruling in the north bay. >> across the bay area and beyond. scenes like this are intensifying, governor gavin newsom doubling down on his executive order from two weeks
9:08 am
ago, directing the state to clear encampments thursday in southern california, putting pressure on cities to do the same or lose critical funding. >> i want to see results. i don't want to read about them. i don't want to see the data. >> but as the push continues, so too does the push back. friday in the south bay, homeless advocates gathered in san jose. how can we have a governor that says we're going to reduce the prison population? >> but at the same time, you're going to criminalize someone being unhoused? >> the organizations promising to start legally fighting the governor's order next month, while also advocating for more affordable housing. >> we're supporting the regional housing bond, which will build thousands, tens of thousands of affordable housing units, which is the real solution to homelessness. >> and in san francisco, as shelters fill the mayor's prioritizing a program to bus unhoused people out of the city. >> we offer services. we offer shelter, we offer we make several offers. we also have the
9:09 am
journey home program, where we will offer if they're from somewhere else, and they want to reconnect with their family and friends back home for wherever they're from. we'll help get them there as well. >> and in the north bay, the city of san rafael is upping its efforts after a year long court battle. we recognize that folks on the street or on the street for lots of different reasons. >> there are a lot of reasons. their own personal safety net failed them. >> a federal judge this week dismissing an injunction filed by homeless advocates last year, the city now free to resume enforcing an ordinance aimed at limiting the size of encampments. and homeless advocates say they'll be watching closely. >> the whole dissolution is based on the representations by the city that they're going to let people have a safe place to be, and so we're going to monitor that. >> meanwhile, back in san francisco, dozens of people living in rvs along zoo road are being forced to move again.
9:10 am
authorities began citing vehicles this week, letting owners know they must be out by this sunday. owners upset, telling us they don't know where else to go. tara campbell, abc seven news. >> and it's worth noting the governor's executive order to clear encampments only applies to state agencies and workers. he doesn't have the power to order cities to follow suit, but it does add some pressure. all right. we got a lot more coming up. let's check in with lisa. all right. >> good morning. we're getting some clearing around the bay as we look at mount tam here. still cloudy up in napa, but it's certainly looking brighter in southern marin san francisco, though, shrouded in the clouds. we've got outside lands and a jazz festival in the south bay. we'll talk about that. the cool down. and next week coming up. >> thank you lisa. also next, investigators trying to figure out what caused this deadly plane crash in brazil. the jet going down into a neighborhood. then imagine taking your children to school for their first day, only to find out

engine turboprop from local airline vo pass spinning out of control and crashing into a residential neighborhood. witnesses horrified this man emotional, saying he was running late and missed the flight. now grateful to the airport worker who wouldn't let him board the flight, taking off from cascavel in the brazilian state of parana, bound for the airport in sao paulo, shortly before it was scheduled to come in for a landing, the plane dropping 17,000ft in just one minute. >> usually this sort of thing occurs because the flight crew was not able to maintain or did not maintain enough airspeed. clearly it was a stall spin. how they got into it is what we don't know. >> the fiery wreckage, large parts of the plane smoldering in a residential neighborhood, debris littering yards. one person on the ground was injured. brazilian aviation officials say the aircraft did not communicate any emergency on
9:16 am
board. the focus is on examining those black boxes. the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder, which will be crucial in the investigation. alison kosik, abc news, new york. >> in the east bay, some parents are frustrated after their kids went to school for the first day of the year to find out there was no instruction happening. the north oakland community charter school was ordered to shut down in june, and osd said the school hasn't met academic goals, but the school sued to keep operating. now. a judge denied their motion, but they still opened yesterday. but while students were on site, there was no instruction happening. it's not known what's next, as families may be forced to relocate to new schools, like as a parent, right now, i'm walking up to drop off blankets and pillows for my tc child, and i found out the school is closed on the first day. >> imagine how you would feel. i have three children here without an active charter. >> the school is not legally permitted to operate and will

9:20 am
the arts can be an important driver, economic driver for downtown. >> these friends from college say this is their 12th year coming to the event. >> i love that we are here and it's expanded and it's like the most beautiful time i your brain takes to the stage on sunday. >> i was giving them joy and my name actually means joy in yoruba. so it's just like really crazy fulfilling what i was born to do in san jose. >> lauren martinez, abc seven news. >> and we have so much happening here in the bay area, so of course we want the weather to be perfect for it. and lisa, hopefully you can bring us some news to that effect. >> yeah. you know, i think today will be nice. still a bit above average. we have all that fog around right now. so that is making for a cool start around the bay. but it is britening up and we are looking at temperatures coming up to kind of where they were yesterday. so very similar to your friday afternoon. and we're going to hold on to the big changes until
9:21 am
we get to sunday. there's a look at outside lands a picture of it anyway today upper 60s the fog burning back to the coast. we'll have some sun and those breezy winds, but we'll have to wait on the sun tomorrow. and as a result it will be cooler. and those winds will be a bit stronger. about 64 for your sunday in the south bay. it's getting brighter. we have the jazz festival temperatures in the upper 60s the next hour or so with the clouds clearing, and then by 2:00 we're in the mid 80s dropping off to about 80 6:00. and then it's still clear 10:00 in the upper 60s. so if you're hanging out in the south bay, really nice day ahead. but on our satellite and radar composite you can see the mixture of clouds. we've got the high clouds and we have the low clouds hugging the shoreline going in closer. and they are burning back quickly. so notice around the bay here into the east bay. it is sunny up in the north bay, the peninsula and parts of sonoma or actually around napa, looking at the clouds holding on, but everyone getting set for a warm and sunny
9:22 am
afternoon. if you're a little bit further inland, there's a look from vollmer peak there, and you'll notice that we are brightening up. 55 san francisco 62. in oakland it is 65. in the south bay with redwood city, about 60. look at the compressed marine layers. hig pressure pushes down the weight of the atmosphere on our deck of low clouds. it gets pushed to the surface. we are sunny. fairfield, concord, livermore in the mid 60s. santa rosa is at 60 in the clouds, 56 in napa. so air quality advisory a lot like yesterday. a little bit of haze in the afternoon, moderate air quality from the east bay and the south bay. we do have that onshore flow, but so many fires to the north, kind of allowing for some of that smoke the to be wrapped up in that flow. and so that's why we'll have more haze today, mist and drizzle at the coast. and then a warm afternoon. but tomorrow temperatures drop off, the winds kick up, the clouds stay around a little bit longer. there's a look at how they dissipate
9:23 am
quickly today and then into tomorrow. we're cloudy to start out and then by the middle of the morning we still have the clouds. there and the winds will kick up today. look for temperatures from the upper 70s, fremont, palo alto 84 and napa 94. today in santa rosa, 93 in livermore. so even a few degrees warmer today in our inland valleys, morgan hill 94. the accuweather seven day forecast. we are breezy, much cooler, upper 80s inland tomorrow. low 70s along the bay shore. we're going to keep the clouds at the coast. it will be cooler though by a few degrees with a stronger onshore flow and then notice this is the first time we've seen temperatures below average in a really long time. but by the middle of next week, we'll bring up the temperatures a little bit. wednesday and thursday, but certainly nothing too extreme this week. yeah, no heat waves like we were talking about last month or the month before. >> so we're appreciative. >> oh good. >> good. lisa, thank you so muc. all right. just ahead, the warning from noaa about an

9:42 am
getting this saturday off to an excellent start. so glad you could join us this morning. let's continue on with some more news. we've told you about the concerns of rising sea levels and some bay area coastal cities are already working on infrastructure plans to combat rising waters. but this week, as tropical storm debbie brought flooding to the southeast, a reminder that climate change means there can be even more flooding without that extra rai. abc's ginger zee explains why we expect flooded streets and heavy rain when a hurricane or tropical storm comes in. >> but the flooding you see in this image has nothing to do with a major storm. look the sun is shining. this is known as high tide flooding. human amplifying climate change has made sea level rise faster, and that causes coastal flooding even during relatively quiet weather conditions. >> as we have more water in the oceans from sea level rise, it means that there's more opportunity for that flooding to impact properties that are further inland that wouldn't have been impacted by water when they were at lower levels. >> now add a storm like debbie
9:43 am
into the mix. extreme rainfall on top of sea level rise makes an ideal scenario for severe and deadly flooding in a coastal beautiful historic town like here in savannah, georgia. and when you've got a tropical storm out in the ocean, it pushes water up these waterways. that's where we talk about coastal flooding or surge. but then you'll have fresh water falling, lots of it inland. and then it tries to get down these rivers and can't flooding then is inevitable. however, flooding is inevitable in so many cases. you don't need a tropical storm to make flooding in a town like this. and a lot of that has to do with sea level rise since the year 2000. having high tide flood events has been three times more likely along the southeastern coast, in a place like savannah, georgia, the sea level has risen more than 11in in the last century. that's a lot a lot of that happens since 1960, but we anticipate by 2050 to have at least another 11in. that means that we'll have as much sea level rise in the next 30 years than we have in the
9:44 am
last 100. and this isn't just a problem for savannah and charleston. noaa data shows a significant increase in coastal flood events in places like boston, atlantic city, galveston, and san diego, the data analysis firm first street has found that sea level rise is already putting more people at risk during storms and high tides. >> as we've seen more and more of this data become available in recent years, we're finding that people are actually quite shocked and absolutely concerned about the flood risk that they have, porter says. >> as far as a homeowner goes, it's up to us to reduce our risk of flooding. but the best approach overall will be governments making broader infrastructure improvements. >> homeowners can do things simple things like clean their drains. they can they can do things like install pumps. they can do things that are more expensive, like raise their home. >> i'm ginger zee. >> and let's get a look at our weather here at home with meteorologist lisa argen. >> all right, zack, good morning everyone. look how nicely the marine layer has just cleared
9:45 am
