racing for some heat. some spots could reach into the upper 90s today, so we are tracking how long the conditions will linger. plus, a stabbing attack in china for american college instructors injured. new details about the frightening incident playing out overnight. this is a legal long shot for elizabeth holmes and her team. the lawyers for disgraced theranos founder elizabeth holmes head to the federal courthouse in san

francisco. the reason? they argue she did not get a fair trial. this is today in the bay thanks so much for joining us on this tuesday morning. i'm kris sanchez, i'm here for marcus washington, and i'm laura garcia. we'll check in with mike for that morning commute in just a little bit. vna is in for kerri this morning and it's going to be a hot one. unfortunately it is going to be hot. and that triggered a heat advisory from the national weather service. now i do want to give you some hope though. let's take a live look right now at some of our beautiful live cameras. great sunshine eventually, but we are seeing a bit of a haze. notice dublin, walnut creek, san jose, san rafael these are actually going to be some of our warmest spots. keep in mind, whenever we see elevated heat, elevated fire danger, we also see, you know, a risk for some poor air quality as well. we've got hot inland valleys. what to expect? that heat advisory goes into effect starting at 11 a.m, and it will be in place through about 8 p.m, so this is just for today. from

napa down through vallejo, oakland, livermore, fremont, san jose, stretching through parts of gilroy. now temperatures near oakland are going to be more in the upper 80s, but some areas in through the interior are going to be near that 100 mark, and that's going to bring low humidity as well. we're also going to get there fairly quickly, especially into areas like the south bay and the east bay. also, the tri-valley. take a closer look at the temperature trend for san jose right about 61 degrees right now. notice the icons we've got sunshine, but by 12:00. so right around your lunch hour we're already going to be at about 81 degrees. so i would say walks with the pups. you want to get out early. and also later into the evening. now if you're going to be in through parts of the city, san francisco will be one of our cooler spots. but even so, we're going to be in the upper 60s, low 70s today, noticed by about 1:00. clear skies, though for the city, not much of a marine layer. today we'll talk more about until when coming up in a few minutes. let's check in with mike. all right. hey, so far this traffic

tuesday looking pretty tame. so a tame tuesday. the back up at the bay bridge still here. we see movement and we'll take any movement we see during the rush hour at the bay bridge toll plaza, pleasant drive, getting there. we do see scattered slowing here. typical areas all the way through richmond down into berkeley. kind of spread out there, but also a little extra slowing. it started early and kind of stuck around just a mild slow down to the carquinez bridge. and of course the continued build mare island and highway four also coming into concord. a little more slowing. nothing major here. so great drive the south bay easing up from the first burst. back to you. all right. thank you mike. new video just into our newsroom shows the aftermath after four american college instructors, instructors were injured in a stabbing attack while on a trip to china. we apologize for the graphic nature of that video. now, the four instructors were from cornell college, a private liberal arts college in mount vernon, iowa. it happened during a visit to a public park in the northeastern chinese city of guilin. the conditions of the

victims are unclear. at this moment. we do know that they were taken to the hospital. the motive in this attack is unclear here. in just a few hours, a case which captivated silicon valley returns to the spotlight. lawyers for disgraced theranos founder elizabeth holmes will face a judge today to request an appeal today in the bay's ginger conejero saab joins us live. ginger, legal analyst you spoke with says this is a long shot. that's right. chris, good morning to you. i am being told that this type of appeal is not likely to be successful, but at the same time, this is potentially the last best hope for elizabeth holmes in scoring a new trial, which means we will be watching closely how this all unfolds at the federal courthouse here in san francisco. just hours from now. that is where lawyers for the former theranos founder, elizabeth holmes, will argue and seek a new trial, saying that the judge in the original case erred in several decisions during that 2022 proceedings.

those trial proceedings. holmes is serving her 11 year prison sentence in texas and is not expected in court today. her lawyer, however, will appeal the conviction. the sentence and the restitution orders. legal analyst stephen clark believes theranos co-founder and holmes former partner sunny balwani, who was convicted on all counts against him, may have more to work with as far as an appeal goes, i think the balwani team actually has more to work with, particularly when it comes to the conspiracy counts. mr. balwani was found guilty of conspiring with miss holmes, yet she was found not guilty of conspiring with mr. balwani and that is an inconsistent verdict and may be grounds for an appeal . and balwani is also not expected in court today, but his appeal will also be heard. and regardless of what the courts decide on either appeal, clark says the impact of these

convictions remain. and chris, i know you were following this really closely. i know people will definitely still be watching how this pans out today. we will be giving you updates on air and online at nbc bay area .com. yeah, i think we both spent a lot of time at that federal courthouse in san jose as the trial played out. thank you ginger 605 now to new video of a chaotic scene at ucla. that's where at least 25 people were arrested after police announced an unlawful assembly on campus. this all following an hours long roving pro-palestinian demonstration. protesters on campus were reciting the names of thousands of people who died in gaza. it remained mostly peaceful, but the situation turned when lapd and private security guards formed a line confronting demonstrators who stood behind barricades. police ordered the demonstrators to disperse at least twice. no one was hurt, but as scenes like that continue

to play out, the un security council is adding further momentum to gaza truce talks. it just passed a long sought after resolution endorsing a us backed ceasefire deal. it is actually a three stage plan aimed at ending the war, returning the hostages and reconstructing gaza. in the meantime, us secretary of state antony blinken is in the middle east. this morning he is meeting with israeli leaders today in the bay's alice barr joins us live in washington this morning. alice, the secretary, i understand, spoke just a short time ago. what did he have to say? well, this is really the biden administration's most concerted effort yet to try to reach the ceasefire deal. so secretary blinken has been trying to push it over the line and finally bridge this gap here. it comes at a time when the israeli military raid that rescued those four hostages, but cost the lives of hundreds of palestinians risks complicating even further the push for peace. this morning, secretary of state

antony blinken in israel, meeting with opposition leaders including retired general benny gantz, a key centrist who resigned sunday from israel's war cabinet. gantz accused prime minister benjamin netanyahu of mismanaging the war and failing to set a plan for gaza's postwar future, something the biden administration has been pressing for. we're not going to get to the day after if we don't have plans for the day after. secretary blinken met yesterday with prime minister netanyahu, who has still not publicly backed a ceasefire proposal the u.s. wants and hamas has not approved. if ceasefire talks fail, nbc news was first to report the u.s. is discussing making a unilateral deal with hamas to release the remaining american hostages, according to two current and two former senior u.s. officials. all of the hostages, but especially our eight american families who have

loved ones in gaza, we are determined to bring them home. the family of american israeli hostage hirsh goldberg, poland backing a separate u.s. deal. whatever it takes to get everybody home, we support it all comes amid new details of the israeli military raid that rescued four hostages yesterday, and three in the middle of a refugee camp. the mission that brought them home to their families is costing the lives of 274 palestinians, including 64 children, according to the hamas run gaza health ministry. as for the latest on the cease fire talks to try to bring an end to that devastation, the reuters wire service is reporting this morning that a top hamas official has said that the militant group accepts the resolution that the un security council finally approved and is ready to negotiate on the final details. israel's pardon this is

a little more complex. president biden, when he laid out this plan, initially said it was an israeli proposal. but prime minister netanyahu has expressed some skepticism and has not publicly backed the plan. laura, i feel like there's a little progress, but then a little hold back, too. we'll continue to follow. alice, thanks for the latest. happening today, two san jose city council members will call for greater transparency when it comes to hundreds of millions of dollars in recent homelessness funding. a new state audit finds that san jose has not adequately accounted for how they spent $300 million over the past several years members ben, dawn and arjun. arjun bonta batra are calling for a comprehensive audit to make sure that the money is going to the proper places. the audit will also call for new accountability in the city's response to homelessness and exploring options to improve it. it will be proposed at today's council meeting this afternoon. new at six. we're less than a month

away from the 4th of july. hard to believe. authorities on the peninsula are working to reduce the number of illegal fireworks. cal fire says the explosive are a growing risk when it comes to starting fires. san mateo county sheriff's office hosting a series of buyback events this month. those who turn in fireworks will get up to $200 in cash, no questions asked. the program is entering its second year. last year, the county says 400 pounds of illegal fireworks and explosives were collected. the first event kicks off saturday at the coastside fire protection district headquarters. that's over in half moon bay. subsequent events are scheduled for south san francisco and redwood city, and for more information, you can visit smkw.com. smc gov .org i'll try to put a link on on x out there for you. sometimes they don't make it easy for us, right? when they make those links. so we know that so many fires around the 4th of july start because of those illegal

fireworks. and things are pretty dry out there. yeah, that's what we want to leave it to. the pros. listen, it's not worth a hand because we've seen that play out, unfortunately. and it's not worth a fire, which can also be deadly devastating, damaging to our. and you can be prosecuted. there we go. so it's just not worth it. and today is one of those days where we're seeing the risk of elevated fire danger, because of that dry brush. but keep in mind we're just getting started as far as summer goes, so we still have more to look ahead to. as far as the heat, here's a closer look at your daytime highs. we've got 92 for san jose, milpitas 93, morgan hill 96 stretching down through gilroy 95. and let's take a closer look at how those east bay temperatures are going to do for today. oakland. we're talking 80 degrees. some of our warmest spots will be concord antioch, livermore, pleasanton. we're going to be in the range of 90 to upper 90s, nearing that triple digit mark. also monitoring around the peninsula, san mateo 83. now we're also looking for dry winds. now it's

going to be breezy, not gusty, thankfully, but even so, any form of breeze. we've also seen how that plays a key role in the elevated fire danger elements. now, san francisco will be in the 70s up through parts of the north bay. look at that 99. and here's another thing. we look at humidity. it's going to be low and dry. please be safe and please be aware. mike i'll send it over to you for a look at those gas prices. yeah folks are helping make us aware of these gas prices the best around the bay. actually, we have three in the top ten for the state. nearly the best in the state. second best is livermore with 374 at diamond gas and mart on south front road. another of the state's ten best is in fremont. the next number here is 389 at star gas on grimmer boulevard. the third in the top ten is over in livermore. same price, but it's at the foxy gasoline we talked about yesterday. and then in santa clara. the best on our list there is. it's up above four bucks. it's 447 at platinum gas on washington street. but we may see those prices continue to drop a few cents a week. we're

looking over here toward the rest of the bay for those sensors and we see a smooth flow of traffic. there is now a new disabled vehicle, west 580, right around the waskow off ramp. it sounds like the off ramp is open. it's near that transition zone. vasco road itself, still not even a half hour drive back to you. thank you mike, it is 613 right now. two packed for the summer. next on today in the bay. the lake tahoe beach that is now introducing a new way to control the crowds, the steps you're going to have to take if you want to visit. plus a restaurant makes waves after it says it only wants smart and sexy customers. would you qualify for? of course you would, because you watched today in the back. good for

a climb into the 90s for most inland areas. by 12:00 will be at about 86 degrees, and by 2:00 we're going to be in those mid 90s. now, these warm temperatures are going to stretch through parts of inland areas, but we're also going to monitor what's ahead. when do we get relief from the heat i'll have a closer look at that. plus the elevated fire dangers coming up in my full forecast. well at least this traffic tuesday is seeing a tamer drive right now. a lot happens after a graduation's cleared from most of our schools, and i think we're seeing that lighter traffic, at least for a couple more weeks. things might start

to build up later on. it will start to build up in the next hour or so. we'll track that change coming up. well. good morning. very happy tuesday to you. stock market is indices hit new record highs again. shares in silicon valley's crowdstrike up big. look at that after the company was added to the s&p 500. this means a lot of money managers will have to buy crowdstrike as part of their funds. santa clara is nvidia up about three quarters of a percent in its first day after that ten for one stock split. i mean, look at that. one 2179. it's funny to see nvidia's price without a comma in it. the fed will start a two day interest rate meeting today. we don't expect any changes. the latest data we have on the economy says the economy is still strong, despite the fed's efforts to slow it down. so no rate cuts today, apple says its folding ai into its iphones and ipads. the next generation of operating systems with help from open ai. most importantly, siri will be smarter, they say, and better

able to help you do what you want to do. i'm hopeful that you can use siri to tap into that personal context and ask, like, father's day is coming up. you could ask, hey, my dad likes to hike. he's this tall. will you help me find some some suggestions that may fit within my budget? now, elon musk had nothing to do with monday's announcement, but he inserted himself into the conversation by saying, if apple incorporates open ai into its actual operating system, apple products will be banned at his facilities. from tesla to spacex to all others. now, there are good reasons, security wise, to be cautious with open ai and its gpt. you don't want an intern uploading your company's sales data, even if the resulting answers are really good ones, because you don't want that data out there. but apple is so good, so good at keeping user secrets secret. the best in silicon valley. the new apple apple intelligence, as they call it,

will warn you if it's going to switch from its own internal ai to chatgpt. we're just a couple of days from the final vote for tesla shareholders to decide whether musk gets that eye popping $56 billion bonus he was promised if he drove tesla's stock above a certain point, which he did. but a court canceled it after deciding tesla's board did not arrive at the decision properly. uc berkeley professor brad delong wrote in the new york times that bonus meant musk's motivation was no longer about getting better at making high quality electric vehicles. it became about a stock price that must go up, delong says. this goes a long way in explaining why musk constantly over promises, but under delivers like humanoid robots. but the robot in the first demonstration was clearly somebody in a suit. musk is chasing the stock price, he says. not realistic, achievable goals. finally, a restaurant in suburban saint louis getting a lot of attention on social media because of its age restriction.

the caribbean restaurant called bliss won't admit women under 30 and men under 35 because it wants to maintain what it calls a smart and sexy vibe. the young people and the owners say, are not ready to bring that vibe pictures here from their facebook page, one of the managers told our nbc affiliate in saint louis that the older crowd can come enjoy themselves and not have to worry about some of those young folks who bring that sort of drama. i don't know what that sort of drama even is, but i'm too old to know. which means i could go to the restaurant. well, if you want to keep the youngsters out, all you have to do is say we like it and they'll be like, yeah, not going there. exactly. some of their slang also raised the prices you guys. lol. that's what they want . they want the oh we gotta go. all right. hey. new at six, a popular lake tahoe destination looking to quell visitors amid the busy summer travel season, according to sfgate, sand harbor will soon require reservations on weekends and holidays. it

comes after a million more people visited last year, compared to 2012. the tourism strain is triggering that new reservation requirement. you have to have one if you want to visit between august 17th and october 4th, you can start booking booking spots on july 1st for $5. that's in addition to the park entry fee. starting next year, the reservation requirement is expected to expand to seven days a week. it's one of the most beautiful areas of lake tahoe there. love it there, but maybe that'll help with the parking too. maybe so they got great. they have great milkshakes too. yeah, and look how stunning it is. i have a live look right now. you guys want to see it? look at lake tahoe. let's go. you ready? it is going to be 85 degrees here today, by the way. so talk about a beautiful time in lake tahoe area. look at that. that's live right now. that is gorgeous. now we are also going to be feeling the warm up here. of course a lot warmer for us, especially in inland areas. forecasted highs

for today in san jose 92, morgan hill 96. and in through the east bay. look at concord 97, pleasanton 95. these are warmer areas. also expected to be our drier areas as well. around the peninsula. san mateo is going to be at about 83 degrees. redwood city 86. if you're going to be out and about in the city. not much of a marine layer today. we're going to be in the 70s in mission 73 downtown, 72, and then we bump back up into those upper 90s, nearing the triple digit mark for clear lake 99, ukiah 98, santa rosa 93. now, with the elevated heat, anytime we see that, we tend to see a dry down of our vegetation with the lowered humidity. so if you look, i advances to about 3:00 this afternoon, which is when we typically see the peak heat and the warmest of the air start to settle in. look at santa rosa clear lake and napa. so we're going to start to dip below that 30. as far as humidity goes. this will bring an elevated risk for fire danger. right now it's expected to be moderate for this

area. but keep in mind any sort of dry brush or fuels can quickly light up and of course spread. so here's what we're looking at when we're talking fire risks. look around your home. if your home is near a hill or you know, in the past has been prone to areas, you know, during wildfire season, make sure you're looking out for grasses, especially brush. and trees will also be elevated to moderate. and as far as those larger trees, we're talking about moderate. but as far as preventing wildfires, you want to create that defensible space between that dry brush and your home, avoid any sort of cigaret litter. we shouldn't have to say that. but we do still have to say it. don't drive on dry grass. secure toe chains, and then of course, use those grills on paved surfaces. i know that the sunny weather brings out a lot of barbecues, which is fantastic. i want you to enjoy, but i want you to do it safely. now, good news here. we're going to be seeing the 70s today, but notice we start to bump down in those temperatures. so 98 for today. eventually we're going to land on a nice stretch in the

80s. still warm, but much more comfortable. mike how are those roads looking? pretty good right now. we're looking at 880 into fremont. look at that. a little bit of a breeze moving that flag, but maybe not enough to cool things down as we look toward the southbound direction, though, there is a crash ahead of them at 237. looks like everything's out of the roadway. things are clear. sensors are green. back to you. thank you so much, mike. months after the bridge collapse in baltimore, a positive step forward. up next, the major changes coming to the port this morning and an updated timeline on when the bridge might be rebuilt. we'll be r

they're acclimated to. the weather is super. it's very key right now at 630. the bay area heat is here, and with that comes the risk of fires. we're tracking potential triple digit temperatures as crews prepare for a potentially busy day. lawyers for elizabeth holmes will be back in federal court in

san francisco to push for a new trial. why? they say she didn't get a fair trial the first time, and why a legal analyst says this is a long shot. plus, san francisco wants pandas in its zoo. but who's going to fit the bill? the growing debate ahead of a crucial vote today, which will determine the future of the popular animals. this is today in the bay the way they eat that bamboo like manners. manners. good tuesday morning to you. thanks so much for joining us. i'm laura garcia and i'm kris sanchez marcus washington is off today. today is going to be hot for most of us around the bay area. meteorologist vianey arana is in for kerry and leads our coverage. so what are we looking at? well, you know we're mentioning the heat. and of course we also mentioned the elevated fire danger. so i want to give you a quick breakdown of what we mean when we're talking about the components that bring on that higher risk when it comes to hot weather, dry wind versus the timing of the heat brings accelerated drying. if

you look at the blue temperature trend line there, that's the 2024 trend. if you look at the red line, notice we're right below that red and kind of orangey glow. that's going to bring a moderated risk for today when it comes to those fuels. we're looking at things like grasses, trees, brushes and for today grasses. as far as the moisture content is going to be low, which brings an elevated danger. so anything around your area you see that dry brush please keep this in mind. it's always important to maintain it, especially as you see these humidity levels really go down. i think that the highest risk will be for the north bay, and especially also the inland east bay as well. look at concord 21, clear lake 15, and this is right around 3:00. when we're dealing with humidity, the reason we want to stay above 40% is because that brings on higher moisture content. we tend to see a nice recovery overnight, but we are going to see some

cooling. and i'll talk more about the extended outlook coming up in my full forecast. for now, i'll send it back to you. all right. thank you. so with that incoming heat, crews are on high alert. this morning. today in the bay's bob redell joins us from livermore, which has seen wildfires in recent days. and bob, cal fire is now staffing up, gearing up for this year's fire season. correct. as our other fire services throughout the bay area, as diana was touching on, you know, we had a very wet, rainy season which created a lot of vegetation like you see behind me. and with these hot temps, this vegetation is drying out, becoming very flammable. and case in point, you can see the scorched hillside behind me. this is a 44 acre wildfire that burned this past saturday just north of 580 here in livermore, right by the altamont pass. and that, of course, prompted a very quick response from firefighters. this is not far from where the 14 000 acre corral fire burned a week, and a half ago in tracey yesterday,

another fire broke out in the east san jose foothills, burned through a garage with a number of cars inside. one person was taken to the hospital and unfortunately, as vienna was talking about, the fire conditions are going to be worse . today, the national weather service has issued a heat advisory for between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. tonight, with temps expected to hit the upper 90s here in livermore and other inland areas in the north, south and east bay. right now, as you were mentioning, kris, cal fire is bringing its staffing up to peak levels and putting more ground and air equipment on standby to be ready for the next wildfire. it's based on whatever incidents that we're having. we've seen quite an increase in fire activity recently, but it's also based on weather forecast and what what we're looking at going forward. if you live in a so-called wildland interface, cal fire reminds you to make

sure that you create 100ft of defensible space around your property and time your yard work for the morning cal fire recommends you use your mowers and weed eaters before 10 a.m, so if those machines throw off sparks, it's not during the hottest and driest parts of the day. reporting live here in livermore, bob redell. today in the bay, i mean, we can just see behind you how dry everything is. so everybody do be careful out there. thanks, bob. and you can keep track of the heat 24/7 from the palm of your hand. download the free nbc bay area app and create a personalized forecast for where you live and where you play. get weather alerts sent directly to your phone. continued coverage today as lawyers for disgraced theranos founder elizabeth holmes returned to court. they're appealing her guilty verdict when it comes to defrauding company investors. defense attorney paula canny joins us live to break down a little bit more of what it's expected in court today. good morning, paula, and thanks so much for getting up early. so of

course, holmes's lawyers are arguing that the judge erred in several different decisions during that trial back in 2022. do you think this is a good legal strategy? it's their only legal strategy, basically today. holmes's lawyer is going to argue three things one, the conviction wasn't validly obtained and that the judge admitted evidence that he shouldn't have admitted and didn't admit other evidence that should have been admitted. then they're also going to argue about how the sentence was calculated, and then they're finally going to argue about how restitution was calculated. so that's the only three things they can argue about. that is the only strategy that they can engage in this morning. all right. well theranos co-founder and holmes former partner sunny balwani, also having his appeal heard in san francisco today, another legal analyst we spoke to says he may have a better chance in court here. why is that? i actually don't think so.

i think they each have a really difficult uphill battle. i mean, interestingly, we, you know, obviously they have different lawyers, but it's interesting that the court calendared both of the appeals together and allotted 50 minutes per side for the argument. so that is unusual to do cases that were tried separately in one appellate proceeding. it's interesting. and the three judges are super interesting ones. a jimmy carter appointee, one's a barack obama appointee, and one's a donald trump appointee. so the breadth of experience of the appellate panel is great. really. wow. interesting. a lot of generations there we're seeing. yeah, totally. so this case itself generating so much publicity. interesting that like you say, they're going to be heard in the same day you worked on so many high profile cases that we've turned to you for as

well when it comes to appeals like this, as a defense attorney , does it the attention have very much impact on the proceedings or. no, not at all the cases. a case is a case. yeah. no, i think it absolutely does. i mean, because everybody involved is a person. so all people are impacted by what other people think. even justices is. so i'm sure all the lawyers are, you know, stressed out, both the defense lawyers and the, you know, the prosecutors because it's stressful. also, karma the comma, the, argument is being live streamed. if you go to the ninth circuit court of appeals website, you can click on the link and you can watch the arguments. so, you know, and the court has sent out has a website that deals with this. so absolutely publicity does in fact play a part in this. and so many people have so many opinions about this case. so

absolutely, it it shouldn't in some ways. but the reality is we're human and high publicity cases absolutely are different than cases that aren't high publicity. yeah. and here we are talking look at us talking. exactly. i just said it here we go. yeah, exactly. all right, paula kearny street, thank you very much for your expertise. always good to talk to you. and we'll see how it all plays out. really thank you. yeah. thank you. well, san francisco mayor london breeds panda proposal is up for a vote today. supervisors will consider breeds. $25 million plan for that panda exhibit at the san francisco zoo. the mayor says this will be funded by private donations and funds. but the zoological society opposes it, saying that there are better ways to spend the money like filling a $2 million budget deficit. animal activists also say that this comes at a time when the san francisco zoo is facing severe

mismanagement and public safety issues. mayor breed secured a panda lease deal after her trip to china in april. she says the pandas will provide a financial boost for both the zoo and the city. taking a live look in the south bay overlooking san jose, the sun's arrival over the bay area certainly going to warm things up if you are inland. just how hot? let's check in with vienna. she's in for kerry this morning. good morning. and i did have to verify a number that you see on the current map, just to make sure i wasn't, you know, seeing things at 641 in the morning. and los gatos is already at 72 degrees, so this gives you an insight of just how quickly we're going to warm up. let's look at your hourly forecast. i took this to about 12:00. so right around your lunch hour look how much warmer we start to get in areas like fairfield, concord, brentwood, livermore, 90 san jose will already be in those upper 80s and the city will be in the 70s. now let's take it to peak heat at around 4:00. there is a possibility that areas like

brentwood and tracee will hit that 100 degree mark. upper 90s for areas like livermore, concord and of course in through parts of dublin. as far as any cooling later into tonight we are going to see some cooling. we've also got an increase in the onshore flow that's going to kick up some winds and help cool us off just a little bit heading into tomorrow, but keep in mind that heat advisory is in effect until 8 p.m. now let's get a check of traffic with mike. yeah looks hot right. look at that. but you know looks well. we look at the temperatures vienna has. i'm focusing on the traffic, which does show that slower drive starting to build right here in front of our camera. but it actually starts back here at capital expressway. this is the second burst that we see typically after six 3640 this morning. highway 87 also showing some slowing. no big surprises, but it is hitting a little harder than i thought it was going to, given the volume of traffic we had earlier. right? we talk about shifts coming down toward the later hours and more build for the nimitz, heading past the dumbarton, back to you. thank you. mike. 642 right now

hunter biden may soon learn his fate. very soon, in that case over the purchase of a gun. the case has gone to the jury, and, scott mcgrew explains, many legal experts expect a fairly quick deliberation here. that's right. they're back for a second day of deliberations. they deliberated for an hour yesterday. the case pretty straightforward. the younger biden, accused of checking a box on a federal document assuring that he was not a drug user at the time he purchased a handgun. the prosecution brought several witnesses forward. witnesses very close to hunter biden who said, oh, yes, he indeed was using drugs. the defense points out all people who are in recovery, no matter how short that recovery may be, thinking of themselves as not using drugs. and the question is vague , they say. indeed, many conservative groups have criticized the question, saying it shouldn't be on the form. president biden has stayed out of the case as it would not be

proper for the head of government to comment on a federal prosecution other than to say he loves and supports his son. this is the president. at an early juneteenth celebration at the white house yesterday. it was two years ago president biden signed the law that made juneteenth the celebration of the end of slavery into a federal holiday. at that celebration, the president spoke about new efforts to quash minority hiring and minority voting. well, let's be clear they're all ghosts and new garments trying to take us back. well, there are taking away your freedoms, making it harder for black people to vote or have your vote count it. closing doors of opportunity, attacking the values of diversity, equity and inclusion. now some conservative news outlets focus less on the president's warning about racism and more about the fact that he didn't dance during the juneteenth celebration. we have video of that. the outlets say the president froze. he does

seem to be watching intently. biden does not dance, not even at his own inauguration. remember, presidents get criticized for dancing. president george w bush dance enthusiastically with an african drum group at an event about fighting malaria, and president bush was criticized and made fun of for days. president obama had a rule about looking foolish. he said, don't put stuff on your head when you're president. then broke his own rule after politely accepting a shawl and a hat from a native american group in 2016, might as well wait for this hat to go on as well. this was at a tribal nations conference. there it is. president obama. don't put things on your head. all right, back to serious matters. if we could, united nations security council voted to approve a resolution calling on hamas to accept a three part peace plan. 14 of the 15 security council members voted in favor, russia abstaining. here's us secretary of state antony blinken. i met

with prime minister netanyahu last night, and he reaffirmed his commitment to the proposal. i also had an opportunity to speak to the defense minister, galant and other senior israelis this morning. and i think there is a strong consensus again, behind moving forward with the proposal. but it really is down to one person at this point. we'll see what comes from them. now by that he means hamas. we expect to get some major decisions from the us supreme court day after tomorrow. thursday means that the justices are back in the news after a woman posing as a conservative catholic secretly recorded audio of the justices at a washington gathering. what some of the justices said weren't really scandalous, but probably ill advised. for instance, samuel alito said there were issues in america that could not be compromised on. that's not inaccurate. for instance, abortion is essentially no middle ground. chief justice john roberts also secretly

recording, recorded rather. but he demurred on most questions. as for those decisions, we're still waiting on a number of them, including the question of presidential immunity, and there are just two days scheduled to deliver them. that's this thursday, and laura the following thursday. all right. thank you very much, scott. 649 new this morning, one of san francisco's most iconic neighborhoods is getting reimagined. the design aims to revamp and upgrade a three block stretch of where powell meets market, in hopes of luring people to visit and live there. the main vision is to create bustling public space filled with storefronts. there will also be upgraded wider sidewalks and a golden lantern suspended in the air above of the cable car turntable. the price tag estimated to be between 20 to $30 million. mayor london breed is expressing support for the project, proposing new funding and a bond measure. we're expected to learn more about

that project during an open house tomorrow. who's going to clean the chandelier? i mean, tourism in san francisco benefits from hot weather because we like to find someplace cool. it's usually because you can buy a fleece. yeah, that's true. up there. and buy a $10 hoodie for anybody visiting. we're always like layers, layers, layers. today it's going to be in the 70s. so if that's your, you know, nice temperature outlook i think you'll enjoy it in the city. look at the current temperatures right now in san jose at 61, san rafael 52, dublin 58. and san francisco is at 52. now. wind speeds are calm. this is good. remember, we don't want to see those winds kick up, especially considering just how hot and dry we're going to get. now we do have that heat advisory in effect starting at 11 a.m. through 8 p.m, the temperatures are going to near the 100 mark, especially for areas like tracey . right now, the trend is showing that climbing into that triple digit mark, we talked about that elevated fire danger because of that humidity. but i

want to help you plan your afternoon so you kind of have an idea of what we're going to really see. the heat crank crank up. so by about 1230, you'll notice san francisco will already be in the 70s and then down through dublin, fremont, san jose, mid and upper 80s. already in the 90s for brentwood, also livermore, tracee and then of course up through parts of the north bay. we're going to be in the 80s. now let's take the timestamp forward to around three 4:00, which is when we're going to see the peak of the heat. and there it is. this model is showing us climbing into that 100 digit mark in through parts of santa rosa. we're going to be in the 90s, concord 95, livermore 96. and then we do start to cool off just a bit, inching in towards that later evening hours. so around 1130. but even so i mean, this is a midnight. and if you live in areas like concord, brentwood and livermore, we're still going to be in the 70s overnight into early tomorrow. now we do see a bit of a shift. we see an increase in onshore winds. and that's also going to

help cool us off, inching into our wednesday. look at this. we've got a high of 69 for tomorrow for san francisco. and then we get to cool off even more into thursday. friday. by the time we get to saturday, we do get a brief warm up in those daytime highs. but today is likely going to be the warmest day of the week. if you notice, we've got 98 and then we kind of range in that low to mid 80 upper 80s. by the time we get to saturday and sunday, but the week be stunning. even so, we're still going to be pretty dry. so that fire risk will remain especially as those winds kick up into wednesday. all right mike, how are those roads doing coming into summer. we have a little bit different pattern. we talked about the early commute being a little bit lighter, but it's really kicked in over the last few. san jose 101 87 at 85, all showing slower sensors now building up in the northbound direction. so that's a little bit more change than we had seen over the last hour. and of course the build for the east bay. back to you. thank you. mike it is 653 happening now. if you're looking to raise a family in the bay area, you might want

to consider fremont. it topped wallethub survey of the best place in the country to do so. the website took into consideration factors like cost of living, public schools, performance, crime, as well as air and water quality. san jose ranked seventh overall. san francisco came in at number 12. up next, we continue to monitor all of this incoming bay area heat, and we'll take a look at the day's other top stories, including lawyers for disgraced theranos founder elizabeth holmes as they head to federal court in san francisco. the reason they're arguing she didn't get a fair trial. also, who's going to pay for san francisco's pandas? the critical vote to today determine where the funds will come from? but first, here's hoda coming up on today, our exclusive interview with celine dion, opening up like never before on the rare disease that has threatened her life and taken a toll on her career and that iconic voice. that and more. when we se

breed's $25 million proposal for a new panda exhibit at the zoo. the mayor says it will be funded using private funds and donations, but the zoological society opposes it, saying the money could be better spent like putting it towards its $2 million budget deficit. all the bay area bracing for more hot weather today and of course, that comes with a fire risk. the latest scare came from the east san jose foothills off higuera road, after a small fire broke out there. the fire burned a garage but was contained within a few hours time this week. cal fire is increasing its staffing, in part because of those weather conditions. let's talk about those hot temperatures coming our way. yeah, and the heat advisory does kick in at around 11 a.m. the greatest risk will be for inland areas, especially up through parts of the north bay. and of course, the east bay. but good news, we cool off just a little bit into wednesday. i see just a little. we have big build up here at the richmond side of the bridge towards san rafael. things are kind of building up on the approach as well throughout the
