opportunity economy plan includes giving startups a $50,000 tax deduction to start their small business. it used to be $5,000. nobody can start a small business with $5,000. >> harris also touted the plan to incentivize the construction of 3 million new homes across america and tax credits of up to $25,000 to help first time home buyers afford them. on crime and guns, specifically, i want to talk about your values on this issue. when it comes to gun ownership, where do you draw the line in america on gun ownership and gun use? >> brian, i am a gun owner and tim walz, my running mate, is also a gun owner. we're not taking anybody's guns away. i support the second amendment and i support reasonable gun safety laws. >> harris supports an assault weapons ban and universal background checks. but here, in part of the state where trump's signs are almost omnipresent. we also talked about her opponent

friends and even ourselves as parents. we've you know, we are a community and we're all friends outside of softball. >> during the newark city council meeting on thursday, andrew patrick spoke during public comment asking for help. >> we hear you loud and clear. >> in newark, lauren martinez, abc seven news. >> the city and the district plan to meet with the league on the 24th of this month to discuss their options. in san francisco, city leaders are preserving a piece of history. mayor london breed is officially declaring the rainbow pride flag above the castro district, a city landmark. the new flag was raised on friday, which is done every few months, and the event had a special focus on gilbert baker. he created the original rainbow flag back in the 1970s, and petitioned for it to fly above the castro district. he sat down with abc seven news in 2017 to talk about the flag's creation. it was his last interview before his death. >> pink is for sex, and red for

life and orange for healing, yellow for sun, green for nature, turquoise for magic, blue for serenity, and purple for the spirit. >> the new landmark status ensures any future changes made to the castro flag is looked at through a lens of historic preservation. all right, let's get you outside. good morning. lisa. >> hi, stephanie. we had another warm day yesterday and some of that warmth still in the upper elevations. so from mount tam, it is 75 degrees with relative humidity at about 22%. very similar over on mount diablo, but at the surface we've got 50s and a bit of a marine layer that is breaking up as we speak. so we'll talk about breezy winds, a 4 to 5 degree cool down today, much cooler tomorrow. we'll add in rain chances and spell it

system that follows it. so maybe beginning to feel like fall. the official start of fall is next sunday. it's going to feel like summer by then. i bet you're not surprised, right? the way we switch things up around here. here's a look at a mostly sunny. partly sunny. san francisco 54. downtown 59. in oakland we have mid 50s. and there's fog on the coast. and from our east bay hills camera atop vollmer peak, it looks more impressive than it is because it's pretty sunny in our east bay with a mild 64 by the delta, 58, santa rosa and petaluma. it's been kind of cool overnight with those longer nights and 56 right now in santa cruz. so the breeze kicks up today. that's the main change with slightly cooler numbers by about four degrees. and that is slight compared to where we're going to be tomorrow which is 15 degrees cooler with very gusty winds and those below average temperatures, they're going to linger into monday with an added chance of showers late sunday into monday. and then as we bring the numbers up slightly, there's another system that's going to keep them from coming

up too much throughout the middle of the week, but that's just the middle of the week. wait till you see the end of the week as we go through the next several hours. by the afternoon, we're over 20 miles an hour with our sea breeze. then 25, then near 30 miles an hour for the delta. so if you look at where this system is going, it's dropping to the south, out of the north, throughout your sunday afternoon, you can see the winds start to kick up not only ahead of it, but they get even gustier behind it. and then we're going to see the possibility of some rain showers. now, as for today, the cool down that's really going to hit part of the mountains and yosemite around tuolumne meadows could see four inches of snow out ahead of the system. but for the bay area behind the system accompanying the system, we're looking at maybe a11 hundredths, but could see more of that in the upper elevations of the santa cruz mountains. ben lomond could see maybe 5/100, but for your saturday to start the weekend, it's a pleasant day. cooler, though, is 89 degrees. yesterday in san jose, 84.

today, milpitas. about 82. the peninsula dropping at least 5 or 6 degrees. you are well into the 80s. yesterday redwood city 80. this afternoon. san mateo. that comfort zone is 73. partly sunny downtown with 68 there and up in the north bay it's slightly cooler. we're going to see temperatures from the mid 80s santa rosa to the upper 70s parts of wine country 77 in san leandro, berkeley about 73. you head inland and were 88. in concord. that's down about four degrees. the accuweather seven day forecast. it is breezy, slightly cooler today, much cooler, gusty tomorrow. chance of showers late sunday into monday. slightly milder, but with another chance of showers wednesday. then by the end of the week we warm up and lo

a revival effort set in motion

by the mayor. this is meant to celebrate south asian culture and the diversity of the bay area. musical performances got people of all ages and backgrounds dancing together. as you see here on battery and clay streets in the financial district. i think we indians, we really love our culture and bhangra beats, celebrates indian culture a lot and there are so many stalls and good food. >> so i think that's what i love about this festival. >> i think we are away from our country, so this is the only thing that has that makes us remember our country and our culture and everything that we celebrate. >> last night was the third out of four events of this market series. the final one will be on november 15th. all right. there is a new arrival to a thailand zoo that's getting a lot of attention online for being adorable. meet two month old pygmy hippo, moo dang. the name roughly translates to bouncing pig or pork patty, and she's helping bring more visitors to the zoo. in fact, the director

says the visits are up by 30%. one video received nearly 6 million views to see this little one. one person commented she's a superstar and was reincarnated as a hippo. very cute. well, if you're looking for a new series to binge, netflix may have the answer with an upcoming one. netflix is exploring silicon valley in its next drama series called thumb light. the streaming service describes the new show as a corporate thriller that will look at the inner rivalries and obsessions of the most powerful industry the world has ever known. rosamund pike will star in this new show. scott galloway, the cohost of the pivot podcast, has also been named as an executive producer of this. okay, lisa, we love our netflix shows. >> yeah, we sure do. and touching base with that every weekend. all right. well we are getting set for a nice afternoon. although breezy onshore winds will bring a cooldown all across the bay. so notice just 74 today in oakland. that's down a few degrees. we're

down at least 4 or 5 degrees inland. and also south end of the bay where those upper 80s will be replaced with about 84 in san jose, 86 santa rosa. the accuweather seven day forecast. much cooler for your sunday. we're bringing in a chance of showers, a few sprinkles, maybe even a rumble of thunder towards monday. look at the temperatures. we don't really recover until the end of the week, and there's an added chance of showers mid week on wednesday. so you're going to have to bring out maybe the heavier coat and watch out to.
