today it's now 24% containment, that's significant no matter how you slice it, i've been at the staging area for days now for the first time the sky is completely blue and you can smell pine trees and not smoke. the firefighters have pushed it further into a forest nearby instead of a nearby interstate, if it made across that interstate it could have been close to homes. the winds are still a big factor here. crews are trying to keep a clampdown on this fire. 20 major fires across california. the big fire that's everyone is watching in new mexico, surrounded a town by two separate fires, if they merge it will be disastrous. >> steve patterson, thank you. maura, you're in chicago which has already hit a

record-breaking high. something that we don't talk about is the lows. 75 degrees is the low today. when the lows are that high there's just no relief. >> reporter: especially when we're looking for the sun to go down and thinking we're going to get a cool temperature, the only reprieve we're getting right now standing so close to the lake is that breeze that's been coming through, i haven't gotten close to dipping my toes. i will be because it's hot, hot, hot. 90-degree temperatures expected through the weekend. as for tips, i should have invested in one of those neck fans today. keeping a cool towel or t-shirt around you. when the sun goes down and the low temperatures, some tips that are really important to think about, take advantage of that breeze, opening those winds, getting a cross-breeze, turning

off your electrical items at night. we want to relieve some of those electrical grids. cool shower before bed recommended. >> all right, maura barrett, get cool if you can. thank you. we appreciate it. we turn now to meteorologist bill karins, take us through what you're seeing. >> all eyes on the gulf, too, in case alberto does form. detroit, fort wayne, from new hampshire into maine, we've already broken our record high in new hampshire. cleveland, close to your record high for the day. along with caribou, maine, hitting 90 degrees. this big heat dome shifting around the country throughout late this spring is this weekend

what happened here. >> he's out. here's what we know, late last night, justin item be laik was out at friends at the american hotel. celebrity sightings. he tried to leave that hangout and drive to a friend's home and that's when he was spotted by a police officer. he struggled to maintain his position on the road, a fancy way of saying the officer saw him swerving. after that, he was pulled over and he failed some basic sobriety field tests. his eyes looked glassy. all of this, he was taken into custody. >> spent the night in jail there in sag harbor, what happens next? he's supposed to be in chicago on tour. >> this friday he's supposed to do a show in chicago, so this may end up being an issue for

him. he has to be back in court at the end of the july. this is supposed to be an international tour. >> no statement yet from him, official statement from him? >> nbc news reached out but they haven't gotten back to us. a major announcement coming from the white house, president biden will soon unveil sweeping new protections for undocumented immigrants, we're showing you a live look at the podium there because we expect to hear from him soon. >> shield undocumented spouses from deportation. >> immigration advocates are applauding the move. julia ainsley has been following this story for us and joins us now. julia, what else do we know about the president's executive actions. who could benefit from this? >> i i think he's just about to start speaking, what we understand he'll announce a new program that would allow anyone

who's been in the united states for ten or more years and married to a u.s. citizen or their parents are married to a u.s. citizen, a stepparent, they can also apply to change their status, they could be on the path to citizenship, get a green card first and later becoming a u.s. citizen, this is a huge change for people who would otherwise have to leave the country to apply for this. the citizenship was to marry a u.s. citizen, not the case for people who enter the country illegally. if you have a visa overstay, that's fine. for many of americans, they would have to risk leaving the country and possibly not being able to get back in. i spoke to one in that exact same position today, javier. >> an action like this has been way overdue.

daca has turned out to be a very successful program. so i don't see it as a bad thing, in fact i see it as life-changing in a positive way for hundreds of thousands of families and people. america's going to be stronger because of this. >> reporter: now, one of the reasons why javier said this is life changing because it's more secure than daca even though right now is safe from deportation he's risked losing his job as a nurse in critical care unit in houston or not being shielded from deportation. what the new action does it would put him on a path to citizenship. there could be legal challenges. in fact we expect them. severe republican pushback on this. some calling it a mass amnesty. the trump campaign already out with harsh criticism of this a. a court challenge could keep

people like javier from getting on that pathway to begin with. >> julia ainsley, thank you so much for that. catch more reporting tonight on "nightly news" with lester holt. time for the money minute. once promming electrical vehicle startup files for bankruptcy. japanese electric partsmaker tdk said he successfully developed a material for its solid state batteries, but that's the wrong story i've got here. we're talking about a company that was very hot, they made high-end electric vehicles, for the second time the company is filing for bankruptcy, one of

senators are demanding answers from the head of boeing today as the plane manufacturing company faces increasing scrutiny, this is ceo david calhoun's first appearance ahead of congressional panel since a door plug blow out on a flight back in january. lawmakers today also want to know more about how boeing's building its planes as new whistle blowers come forward ahead of this hearing. ryan nobles has been following the hearing from the hill. >> reporter: one of the things that's really struck me over the course of hearing, lawmakers aren't just concerned with the fact that boeing has made mistakes they're also very concerned that they may be attempting to cover those mistakes up and they believe

admitting mistakes and fixing and being accountable is very important. boeing may be trying to suppress the testimony or the release of information from whistle blowers, listen to this exchange between senator blummenthal and david calhoun. >> how many have been fired. >> i'd be happy to follow up and get you that answer. >> reporter: sometimes whistle-blowers have been punished for coming forward and telling their story. ellison, this comes at a time when boeing is facing serious questions about leadership in the future. ellison. >> other than asking questions, holding people accountable, what

else can congress do when it comes to this? >> it's a private company, unlike many private company that come before congress, boeing works with the federal government, the federal government is one of its biggest clients, maybe congress can have more oversight and that could impact the way they do business through the money that's appropriated to them. the airline business in general is heavily regulated by the federal government through the faa including the construction of airplanes, the federal government has the ability to get in and see how this process works to make them course-correct. boeing is one of the only companies that does this particularly in the united states, that requires the government to try and find a way to get them to fix the problems they have here. >> ryan on capitol hill, thank you.

one of the largest public school systems has moved one step closer to banning cell phones from the class room in a 5-2 vote the school board of los angeles unified school district is demanding staff members work to work on an updated policy. the board wants the new rules to go even further. morgan chesky is following this story. morgan, how exactly would a ban work and it wouldn't take effect until some time next year. >> reporter: christine, you're right. how it would work that's the big question that school district leaders will have to figure out over the next several months or so before this goes into effect before the spring 2025 is semester, they now have between now and then to figure out exactly how this would be implemented, some big questions there. but there are already some early ideas that have been suggested such as cell phone pouches the students can place their devices

in when they enter the classroom, or potentially at the end of the school day, those are just so much the ideas being shared and this was all part of a driving discussion that school board members brought up after having multiple parents come forward expressing interest in some sort of mediation that the district could do in order to handle, we heard surgeon general addressed yesterday, a social media impact that's been reflected in rising rates of anxiety, of depression in some cases. one school board member in particular shared a story where they visited a middle school during lunch, students were communicated via device and not with each other. >> what were the arguments against the ban? >> reporter: well, we certainly

heard from parents who want to have that constant line of communication with their students, there were several quoted in area publications because of the distance between the school and their home, a way to have access to their child, we know that particularly with extracurricular activities, if there was a change of plans over the course of the day they'd want to know about that up front. christine. >> morgan chesky, thank you so much. still to come, the new warnings about an increase set set of terrorist attacks. set of terrorist attacks. athe t (♪♪) with wet amd, i worry i'm not only losing my sight, but my time to enjoy it. but now, i can open up my world with vabysmo.

changing here in northern california to where we're starting to see more of those large active fires. so i can't tell you if there are going to be them. but what we can see with what's already happened is there is the potential for those fires to occur. okay. now, at this point, we don't know if those evacuations orders will be lifted today, if any change will happen on that front. i am told that the determination may or may not be made. so far, those two structures that have been destroyed are the only ones reported so far. cal fire says the point fire is not actively threatening other structures at this point. in cloverdale, ginger conejero saab nbc bay area news. thank you, ginger, and we are streaming updates on this fire both online and on air. and that qr code you see will take you right to our website. you can just search nbc bay area on roku, pluto or any other streaming platform. point fire is not the only fire crews

a concern for that continent and here. number two, the terrorist groups that are very active, hezbollah, we know what hamas did on october 7th, another column of the state actors, iran, the threat to u.s. infrastructure from rye ran, talked about in public cases, from the department of justice in the u.s. intelligence community over the last years, the threats to water supply, they've made those actual intrusions from the cyberpoint. we know how divided this country is politically, we have extremists who tried to get pro-palestinian protests. on the right we've seen all sort of new racially and ethically

there. >> police are very vigilant around important things like election years and the conventions. any security concerns for those events. >> the national conventions for both parties, that takes on a whole another level of profile. the u.s. is focused on those events along with whoever the local police and law enforcement agencies are. they're focused on both from a protest perspective, lot of protests in this country over the past two, three years, as well as who can show up against or for whatever politics may be promoted at either convention. something to keep in mind. obviously in the back of everyone's mind is january 6th and what we saw there and people did act out on political causes

essentially impossible. >> reporter: the health of athletes is a top concern and paris 2024 says they'll have three water stations across every venue and they'll also consider shifting the time of outdoor competitions if temperature top 90 degrees. something paris' deputy mayor said they've been working years to limit. climate change makes paris increasingly hot. 7 degrees fahrenheit is a big deal if you're in the middle of a heat wave, that's big difference in temperature. >> yes, and it's dangerous for daily life so we need to transform the city as fast as possible to protect people and to make the city more sustainable for future generations. >> reporter: and that's why they've invested billions in planting trees to cool the city. working to clean up the polluted seine river, positive steps to host the olympics and permanent
