road. this is the western edge of the island of alameda. if you're not familiar, you can see officers are still out here. they're collecting, collecting crime scene evidence. this happened just before nine last night. a neighbor called 911 to report the shooting. alameda police say that multiple members of a family that lives in this house behind me were shot. this includes children. it's not clear if those children are among the three who died. other family members were taken to the hospital, their conditions unknown to us. we did ask police if they thought this might be a domestic act of violence. the public information officer responded, quote, we can't say at this time reporting live here on alameda bob redell today in the bay, all right, bob, thank you. we will continue to follow this breaking news both on air and online. you can get updates by downloading our free nbc bay area app. well, turning back to our other top story, this bay area heat wave and today set to be the hottest day of the week.

and if you're looking to cool down with a pool, well, that might be the best trick for you right now. this is a live look over at the pool located at robert livermore community center and kerry. this will actually be a good day for people to dip in the pool, but they should still proceed with some caution out there. yeah, it's going to be hot and you want to make sure that you're staying hydrated all throughout the day. as our temperatures get really hot for this afternoon, another heat advisory in effect for much of the north bay. these areas in pink or a step up are under an excessive heat warning that will be in effect for today through tomorrow. at least. we do have our cool morning start. we're in the upper 60s in livermore and 67 in san jose, mostly upper 50s and low 60s across the bay area san francisco starts out the morning at 56 degrees. but then as we take a look at our highs, it is going to be very hot, 106 in morgan hill today, 100 in east san jose. and looking at a lot of highs over 100 degrees with

antioch up to 109 92. in hayward today. but along the coastline, it's going to be very comfortable with some low 70s. there and we will warm up to 84 in the mission district in san francisco and in the north bay, 112 degrees today in ukiah. we'll get a look ahead to a cooler weekend forecast coming up in a few minutes. all right. thank you. kari. well, governor gavin newsom scheduled to visit the east bay later this morning. and at this point, details are limited. but we do know that he will appear in alameda county to address public safety, along with chp leaders. you may remember, chp now assisting local east bay law enforcement teams that news conference gets underway at 11 a.m, and today is the deadline for workers at oakland city hall to hand over the documents requested by federal prosecutors and the apparent grand jury investigation tied to the mayor. sheng thao. it demands, in part, that the city hand over all

records tied to california waste solutions, a group called involuntary homes and documents tied to mayor's partner andre jones. the mayor continues to deny allegations against her and so far no charges have been filed. also today, the group is seeking to recall the to mayor plan an update on their campaign efforts. oakland voters will determine her fate this november. happening today another hearing taking place in scott peterson's effort to gain a new trial. today's hearing is part of his legal team's request for new dna testing of duct tape found on laci peterson's body. the judge will decide where the testing should happen and who should pay for it. this is the only piece of evidence being retested after the judge heard arguments surrounding more than a dozen items. peterson is serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife and unborn son. more than 20 years ago. our ginger conejero saab will join us with a full report in our next half hour, including more

from a legal analyst on what comes next. well, turning now to decision 2024 and president biden facing a key test today, he is seeking to make his case to the country during his first solo news conference since the debate. the president is scheduled to take questions from the white house press corps. all of this as he fights off calls for him to drop out of the race for the white house following a shaky debate performance last month. so far, less than a dozen democrats on capitol hill are publicly calling on the president to step aside. they are citing fears he won't beat former president trump, but the majority are backing him. i will tell you when i'm telling my constituents at home, it was a very rough debate night. if you elect donald trump, it'll be four years of horrifically rough nights. former president trump has said he believes biden will stay in the race this afternoon. senate democrats will hear from

biden advisers and the biden campaign during a special caucus lunch monday night. lester holt sits down with president biden in an exclusive one on one interview. watch a preview on nbc nightly news. it's at 4:00. then the full, unedited interview in a prime time special at 6 p.m. on nbc. bay area, an effort is being launched to reshape the supreme court. new york congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez is actually introducing articles of impeachment against justices samuel alito and clarence thomas. this is over their refusal to recuse themselves from certain cases. the resolutions were co-sponsored by seven democrats. it's unlikely that effort will gain traction in the house, where republicans have majority. the supreme court has not responded to requests for comment. new. this morning, the white house today will announce a $2 billion grant for automakers here in america to retrofit their car factories to build new electric vehicles. the

money will come out of inflation reduction act and will go to both american carmakers like gm and foreign carmakers like volvo. so long as those companies plants use union labor and are located in the united states, the money will help bring 11 plants up to date. the white house says it will save 15,000 jobs. let's take a live look out in walnut creek this morning. getting started with your thursday meteorologist, kari hall. of course, been monitoring what we can expect. i mean, today, kari, one of the hottest days this week. yes, yes, and it will be very hot. and a lot of our inland areas, including spots like san francisco, where if you don't have air conditioning, even upper 70s and low 80s is going to be uncomfortable during the middle of the day, moving away from the coast, it's going to be dangerously hot up to 107 degrees in concord. fairfield will be 109 degrees today as we take a look at what we call our climate shift index. this comes

from climate central, a group of scientists who give us rapid attribution that means that they're verifying if the current weather that we're seeing has an impact or has been influenced by climate change. and what we are seeing over the years is that we are trending towards more extreme heat. and it gives us in parts of the bay area and spots like fairfield, a climate shift index of three. that means that the temperatures were three times more likely because of climate change. and this is something that we may experience in a regular basis as we move into our future. so all of the heat that we've been seeing is not what we would normally see, even for this time of year. and it's more likely that we'll see these extreme days with temperatures up to 109 as we move into our future. so we'll continue to monitor that. we will talk about a weekend cooldown coming up in a few minutes. but mike, you're saying that it's pretty quiet for the early commute. yeah. not bad.

we're looking at green sensors. i know last week was vacation. this week a lot of folks did come back. we saw that in the commute yesterday morning and evenings, but right now it's looking pretty calm. still, we do see slowing. we didn't see that last week out of the altamont pass. vasco road still at speeds. so as you're coming down out of contra costa county to 580, you're still going at speed all the way from marsh creek down to the area. we had an earlier crash that just cleared that was eastbound 80 around coming skyway. no slowin, no injuries and no problems. so it's westbound. your commute of course, that is our commute direction to the bay bridge. and across into the city. back to you. thank you very much. well, buying in bulk, getting more expensive. ahead on today in the bay. the big box store increasing its member price plus going 101 with basketball icon lebron james. we're going to hear the reason he wanted to rejoin team usa for the paris olympics. and what he hopes to team. keep itis year with the

introducing togo's new barbecue beef sandwich. it's piled high with tender beef that's slow cooked and smothered in tangy memphis style barbecue sauce. it's no fuss, no muss. just tons of flavor. the best barbecue beef is only a togo's. try one today.

alert. we start out with a clear view of dublin, where soon we'll see the sun coming over the hills and it will be a hazy day. our temperatures starting out nice and fairly mild in the mid 60s for us, but we'll already be in the mid 80s at 10:00 and mid 90s at 12:00. so you see how fast it heats up today as we reach over 100 degrees heat

continues tomorrow as well. so we'll take a look at all of our microclimates coming up in a few minutes. okay. so you showed the highs at 101 over there in the east bay. i'm looking at 101 coming into san francisco. the freeway moves very smoothly. low clouds bring in a little cool, but we know that will change. let's see what's ahead in the world of business. we'll check in with silvana. all morning i'm silvana henao from cnbc. wall street is set for a flat open ahead of a key report on inflation. now the consumer price index. and it's expected to show a slight increase in june. while the annual rate could fall to the lowest level in three years, inflation has remained high. and that was primarily because of the cost of housing. shelter costs are up more than 5% over the past year. now, if the numbers come in line or below forecast, that could further solidify a potential interest rate cut by the federal reserve this fall. the market's rising yesterday with the nasdaq and the s&p 500 closing at

record highs again. costco is raising its membership fee for the first time since 2017. the basic gold star membership will go up by $5 to $65 a year, while the executive membership will rise by $10 to $130 a year. the changes go into effect in september and will affect about 52 million members. costco has typically raised membership fees every five years or so, and the company has telegraphed this move for months, saying last fall it was a question of when, not if, and the red box kiosk days are numbered. the parent company of the dvd rental business is converting its bankruptcy case into a liquidation proceeding. chicken soup for the soul entertainment will lay off its workforce and shut down and sell its businesses, which include streaming services and 24,000 dvd kiosks at grocery stores and other retailers. guys, do you remember those? yeah yeah, i

always pass them and wonder who uses i know, although my kids have been really into dvds lately. oh, really? yeah, they think it's cool to go. i don't have anywhere to put them in though, right? oh, no. my son went online and bought one. oh, isn't that funny? wow oh, wow. next thing you know, he'll want a cassette, right? eight track. yeah. oh, goodness. wow. yeah oh, taking it way back. right. thanks so much, silvana. well, now that just 15 days until the start of the paris olympics, you want more proof that things are finally getting real? the latest dream team played its first practice in las vegas. and no doubt, this lineup is loaded. steph curry actually felt right at home over at the court there in vegas. team usa the men's basketball team there last night playing the first practice game they actually faced canada. among those taking it in former president barack obama right there steph curry lebron james really seemed like a partnership waiting to happen. watch how steph ends one play with his

night night pose. you can see it there. oh that's not it. but anyway okay so team usa wins 86 to 72. today show's craig melvin recently went one on one with lebron james in vegas, who talked about suiting up once again for team usa. team usa was given a lot to me, so i feel like, you know, it's an opportunity for me to give back and i'm happy to be a part of, you know, you know, the men's senior national team once again, you know, being in paris and being alongside, you know, you know, some greats, you know, some of the greats that we've ever seen in steph curry, kevin durant, just to name a few. yes. yes warriors former warrior. all right. you can check out craig's interview with lebron later this morning on the today show, which starts at 7:00 right after us here on today in the bay. well, it turns out this isn't just oakland's last season with the a's. it's also radio announcer vince cotroneo, whose last season with the team, he made the announcement last night on social media saying he has no plans to retire on the field. the a's are in the midst of a series at storied fenway park in

boston. they look good last night against the red sox, taking a three zero lead in the second inning. they never looked back, winning the game 5 to 2. and meanwhile, step backward for the giants on their quest to reach 500 last night, starter logan webb did not have his best stuff there. the three run home run gave the blue jays a32 lead in the fifth inning. the giants actually managed to tie it again, but toronto blew things out in the inning, later winning the game ten six. that series wraps up this afternoon at oracle, and a reminder don't miss the start of that three game series. sf giants battle the minnesota twins at oracle park. coverage starts at 7 p.m. on nbc. bay area, which is a good thing. it'll be after the sun goes down, right? the sun goes down. i don't know, i can't i don't know the tune, but yeah, i was just referencing the hot weather. oh yeah. marcus. but san francisco is not so much hot. i'm always thinking of a song somewhere. how about take me out to the ball game? okay,

well, we do have some. great. okay, we've got some great weather for baseball in the city, but the valleys, we are really going to struggle today. take a look at this beautiful sunrise, though, of course we know that when we have a lot of different colors in the sky, that's most likely because of either wildfire smoke or poor air quality. and that's what we are going to see today as you're getting up and heading out. we are dealing with this sizzling summer heat in the inland areas for today and tomorrow. our valley temperatures will be in the 90s and over 100 degrees, but along the bay will be in the 70s to the 90s. it is a spare the air alert day. so you do want to limit your driving and stay indoors when possible. if you can call up somebody and carpool to work together, or catch public transit to reduce the amount of pollutants that we're seeing out there. because there's already enough, we are seeing our air quality at 118. that's a measure of particulate matter. when we see it, that

amount, it means that people who have breathing problems or heart conditions should limit time outside. and it's also going to be pretty bad in santa clara valley, as we are seeing this high pressure that's causing this extreme heat, pushing all those pollutants down into the valleys. and it doesn't really mix out as our temperatures today head for 96. in san jose, it will be 103 in los gatos. and what we are seeing today and the past few days is there is a wide range in temperatures even over the short distance. so we're seeing a high temperature headed for 109 in antioch today in walnut creek, it will be 106. in oakland it will be in the upper 80s for today in half moon bay, we're looking at a high of 73, nice and comfortable there. also pretty good in much of san francisco, but it will be warm in the mission district with a high of 84 and 85. in mill valley, while santa rosa will reach a high of 100 degrees as we get rid of the heat for the next few days. heading into the weekend, temperatures will come

down. but let me show you something. this is our mid-level moisture outlook. so the green color is indicate where there's higher amount of moisture in the atmosphere. and then it looks kind of a gray where we don't have a lot of moisture and it's really dry. we're going to see a surge of some high humidity which may bring us some clouds. clouds could also get enough build up in there to produce some thunderstorms. and then this is going to be with us saturday and sunday all across the region. so we're going to feel very muggy air with more clouds and even a chance of some thunderstorms as that tropical moisture moves over the bay area. so we'll be watching out for the chance of some isolated thunderstorms on saturday and sunday. even though temperatures go lower, it may not feel much better until the air becomes dry again early next week. and looking at san francisco, it will be a warm one today with a high of 83. but going into the weekend, those temperatures drop quickly as the fog lingers a lot longer and we get a breeze. a

nice cool ocean breeze. and mike, you're saying that it's an easy breezy out there for the drive to breezy, but a little more volume. actually, it was a pretty big jump up for the last few minutes. the number of headlights we saw, but no compensatory slowing here, so we're still holding for our standard pattern. i did check all the way back in the south county, very little slowing out of san martin, but it is building. so there's your commute coming into the south bay. soon as we look at the rest of the bay. no major issues, just that slowing out of the altamont. typical. and i'm sure vasco will be adding on a couple minutes for that drive out of contra costa county through contra costa county. the earlier crash did clear getting up to the carquinez bridge, but it is the arrow here. i should have put in for highway 37. building a little bit. and of course there's an approach to the bay bridge, but on the span no problems. back to you. thanks so much, mike. 522 for you this morning. next here on today in the bay nbc bay area responds. the electric company admitted it made a billing mistake a year ago, but it still hasn't paid the customer back. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, nbc

he asked consumer investigator chris creamer's team to provide a little jolt to clear things up. let's meet chris in geyserville and his electric meter. chris shared a surprise letter pg&e sent him back in february of

2023. it said his meter was unintentionally moved to a new rate plan due to a processing error. long story short, chris called pg&e several times and expected them to go ahead and well, adjust his bill. but guess what? that didn't happen. so he contacted us. we contacted pg&e it then refunded chris $116 for the error. here's what pg&e said. unfortunately, the corrections took longer than expected. we feel terrible for the delay and are working to figure out what happened so it doesn't happen to other customers. we encourage you to. comb your utility statements every single month like chris does, but you don't necessarily need to wait for your monthly bill to monitor your electric and gas usage. if you sign in to pg&e website, you can see your usage in real time. you can also subscribe to get free alerts when your bills are spiking.

chris contacted us online. you can to snap the qr code on screen right now to fill out our consumer complaint form online. thanks, chris. it is 526 right now. coming up, the top stories we're following for you today, including thousands of dollars worth of fuel stolen straight from the pump. the way thieves managed to manipulate the system at a fremont gas station. i'm ginger conejero saab at redwood city. scott peterson's case is back in court this morning. up ahead, we'll give you the details on the new dna testing surrounding one key piece of evidence. stay with us. you baye

people are shot dead inside a home. details on the investigation just coming into our newsroom. scorching heat. this may be the hottest day in wet shaping up as another hot week. meteorologist kari hall has today's timeline for those triple digit temperatures, plus any one of these baby steps can lead to another step that could ultimately exonerate scott peterson. scott peterson's legal team returning to court. we are live with one expert's take on how the bid to win him a new trial will possibly go, and the key piece of evidence at the

heart of today's hearing. this is today in the bay. good morning to you. on this thursday, i'm marcus washington and i'm laura garcia. so let's start out with a look at the forecast for this thursday. meteorologist kari hall is tracking what we can expect. we've been waiting because this is going to be the hottest day of the week. yes, it will be. we're going to make it. it's already getting you down. i know, but we can do this. just stay hydrated and try to get in the ac as much as possible. and we have our natural ac this morning. we're starting out at 54 in san rafael in dublin it is 69 degrees, 67 in san jose and san francisco at 56. and we are still looking at some mild weather along the coast and in san francisco. it's not one of those events where we see even the beaches heating up. so that's the good thing, is that there will be places to go escape and the peninsula will also be mild. but the farther you go into the east bay, the south bay, the north bay, it is

going to be dangerously hot with a major heat risk. and this is how these kinds of temperatures will affect your health. that's going to be one of the things you'll have to watch out for, especially without being properly hydrated throughout the day tomorrow. still hot, but not as hot. the heat is easing up a little bit, but we're still looking at a few spots reaching over 100 degrees and up to 110 farther north in clear lake and ukiah, and then for the weekend heading into saturday, it comes down even more and it will be comfortable for a lot of the bay area. so we'll be tracking that for you. mike, you were saying that crews are at work on the golden gate bridge. at least they get to work in the cooler fog behind me right here, folks, let's take this so you can see it better in the lower corner, right behind where it says nbc. we do have that crew getting ready to move that center divide. the sign says four lanes are open in the northbound side. that will change as they move that center. divide for that morning commute coming into the city. but right now, no slowing there. no problems for highway 37, just the arrow shows where

the slowing in the commute direction out of vallejo highway four. starting to see a little bit of slowing brake tapping going on there, but nothing dramatic here. a smooth drive out of the altamont and through the south bay. back to you. thank you mike. we are following breaking news this morning with a live look in alameda, where three people have been shot and killed inside a home. it is on kitty hawk road near retired park. police say the shooting happened a little before 10:00 last night. and at this time, we know more victims are hospitalized. we also know some of the victims are children. police do have a person of interest in custody. they say there is no threat to the public. are bob redell is. they're gathering new information. we'll have a live report in our next half hour. we'll of course, following this story on air and online. make sure to download our nbc bay area news app for the latest information any time and up to the minute alerts sent straight to your phone. well happening today, scott peterson's legal team returning to the redwood city courtroom and their bid to win him a new trial. today's

hearing surrounds new dna testing on one piece of evidence today in the bay's ginger conejero saab is live outside the courthouse this morning. and, ginger, this is just one piece of the larger case. prosecutors. right now feel like they're winning. well, marcus, laura, the previous hearing was seen as a blow to scott peterson's new bid for a trial. the judge back in may ruled that only one piece of evidence from a list of over a dozen should undergo new dna testing. now, today's hearing will revolve around that one piece of evidence, which is duct tape about 15.5in of duct tape that was found on laci peterson's pants during autopsy, and how that will be retested. now, scott peterson has attended his hearings previously, virtually. he is expected to do so again today. his defense team from the los angeles innocence project argues that the duct tape in question contained human dna that could point to someone

other than peterson, who was convicted two decades ago of killing his pregnant wife, laci and their unborn son. prosecutors have pushed back, saying evidence was already tested years ago, but defense attorneys argued it offered inconclusive results. so today's hearing will answer the big question who will test that piece of evidence and who will pay for it? defense attorney paula canny says today's hearing is a bit mundane, but it is crucial because where you test, she says, can be impactful. the defense is just, you know, taking baby steps to get to their ultimate destination, which is, you know, to establish that scott peterson was wrongfully convicted. so there's any number of ways that can do it. dna is the most powerful. and it's the thing that we hear the most and it's the most scientific. but yes, each of these things could possibly lead to a new trial. so today's

hearing will really focus on the details of retesting that piece of duct tape. there will be another hearing or there is another hearing, i should say scheduled for next week, that will revolve around the discovery of evidence. so this really after today will still continue on. marcus and laura, it'll be really interesting to see how it all plays out. been following it for years now. thank you ginger. in fact, for a closer look at this case, you can watch our online special. i sat down with two attorneys who have been tracking this case since 2002, along with our jodi hernandez, who interviewed scott peterson. even before authorities arrested him. watch our half hour special right now. it's on nbc bay area dot com or wherever you stream. a mystery unfolding in san francisco after an australian businessman was found unconscious and seriously injured. colin bettles is now at san francisco general hospital. his current condition is unknown. he is the ceo of grain producers australia. a former

deputy prime minister in the country who bettles once worked under, tells sky news he never showed up for his scheduled flight from san francisco to new york. u.s. authorities later tracked him down to his hospital bed. he was seriously injured july 4th and robbed of his phone and wallet. police also say they have no information about the attack. if you know anything, contact police. san francisco police will soon have more leeway when it comes to pursuing criminal pursuits. criminal suspects police commissioners last night agreed to vote next week on a new policy. this is when it comes to police chases and when officers can initiate a chase. right now, officers can only do so in certain cases and only after a crime has been committed. the changes will allow for proactive pursuits ahead of a crime. now, the new rules also eliminate some of the paperwork, which the chief says now will allow more patrol time does save a lot of time, and i think that's the whole idea behind this is to be efficient

but be accurate. the changes are the result of a measure voters approved last spring, and opponents still fear that it will lead to more profiling. final vote on the changes should take place before the end of the summer, and the police union will have to sign off on that new policy. an east bay gas station becomes the target for thieves stealing thousands of gallons of diesel fuel. the store manager says it's just one example of the crime they're dealing with on a regular basis. shaheen oholone manages the valero gas station along mallory avenue in fremont. he shared some surveillance images of a recent incident in may involving suspects using a flatbed truck with a 55 gallon container to steal thousands of gallons of diesel fuel worth tens of thousands of dollars. he says the individuals used a universal key to open up the gas pumps to give them unlimited gas. it is the third time this has happened at this location station since 2014. as business owners, we're

already struggling. we're fighting tooth and nail to try and stay competitive to everyone else, this video from june shows suspects trying to break into the store hours after fremont pd say the same group stole atms from nearby liquor stores on the same night. in this video, he tells a man to leave the gas station after a customer pumping gas said the man was sexually harassing her. the man went back to his car, turned around and pointed a gun at him. police did arrest that man. state regulators. they will meet in san francisco today to consider pg&e. s latest rate hike. request the utility seeking another $150 million, which it says would cover the cost to repairs tied to more recent storm damage. if the cpuc approves, this would likely add another $10 per month to the average bill. rates on average this year already higher than more than $35. opponents are planning to protest outside of the auditorium, where today's

hearing will take place. it is 539 on your thursday morning, taking a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza this morning, we'll check that morning commute with mike in just a bit. kind of light out there, but yesterday on our midday news, we were talking about, you know, in the bay area you can always find a place to escape the heat. and i think a lot of people are going to be doing that this weekend. you can do that today as well. at the giants game. it's an early afternoon game. if it's really hot in your microclimates, head into the city. it will be 75 degrees at first pitch and a nice little breeze with a lot of sunshine. as the wind continues to pick up throughout the game, we'll see those temperatures only make it up to 76 and then start to fall again for this evening. if you're in san jose and you want to go to the movie night, make sure you're staying hydrated. this starts at 6:00 and it's going to be 93 degrees as we go later into the evening, temperatures start to feel much more comfortable, and by 1030 we're seeing temperatures in the 60s and 70s. and then we also

have the grace window laser installation that will be in san francisco starting tonight. and we're going to see those temperatures there in the 60s. and then dropping back to the upper 50s, fog rolling again. hopefully it doesn't block your view of the laser window installation there. and then this weekend for tomorrow there will be the italian blue angels flyover right at crissy field. you'll be able to see that at about 130 in the afternoon to 3:00, and it stays in the upper 60s here. it looks like it will be nice and clear in time for that flyover. if you've been thinking about the beach all week long and you want to go there this weekend, definitely a nice, cool, refreshing breeze at santa cruz. it's going to be in the upper 60s tomorrow for a high temperature, and only in the mid 60s throughout much of the rest of the weekend. if you're going to tahoe, it will be warm. and of course we know a lot of places there don't have that air conditioning. so you'll maybe want to take a dip in the lake. it will be 86 degrees

tomorrow and low 80s for saturday and sunday. we'll get a look at our forecast as it cools off as well. but mike, you're looking at the drive through the south bay. i am, and right on time, just like we talked about almost every day. not last week. we have the slower drive developing with more traffic. north 101 right here, heading up from 680 to about oakland road. almost 880. there we go. no surprises. and there's a built into morgan hill out of san martin peninsula still holding with light traffic and at speed. same thing for the tri valley, though. we'll see little blips now. brake tapping coming in through livermore, but most of that slowing out of the contra costa county drive for vasco and also out of the altamont pass highway four, shows a little build now through pittsburgh. so there we go, early start back here. and usually we see over at near san marco and concord. so it's a little shift, but still there. same thing for highway 37. and the build of course down the east shore freeway, mostly at speed in the backup should be building at the bay bridge toll plaza in the next few minutes. getting into the city is fine right now. this this midday game

we just talked about, kerry, talked about the great temps over there at the city. oracle may attract more traffic through the area around oracle park today because of that great timing and the great temperatures. so we'll see if more giants fans show up. only giants fans there. and they get to the city and a smooth drive across the san mateo bridge. no problems right now. an easy drive, but that will build just as it has the first few days of this week. back to you. all right. thanks. so much, mike. well, today is a crucial day for president biden ahead here on today in the bay. the key speech, which could be a make or break when it comes to his reelection bid. our washington insider is live to break down what is expected. plus, giving back to the faithful the community project the niners are helping push forward. keeit here. you'rep under a

microclimate weather alert. we are having to plan our day around the weather, try to get in those outdoor activities and concord most likely before 10 a.m. after that, it's going to be really hot and it turns dangerous as we go into the afternoon as temperatures peak at 106 at 4:00 today, we'll get a look at all of our microclimates and talk about what's ahead for the weekend. in a few minutes or go here. now. it's cooler, at least. and it's also got that new configuration. the morning commute is ready, or the golden gate bridge is ready for the morning commute. more lanes heading into the city than out. that's the way we typically

expect to see that, and a very light traffic right now. we'll show you the build coming up. well, turning now to decision 2024. and today is a key test for president biden. he's looking to strengthen relations with nato leaders. this is during the final day of the summit in washington, dc. this while also fighting off calls for him to drop out of the 2024 presidential race today in the base brie jackson live for us this morning and brie some democrats, as well as those donors urging the president to step aside. that's right. good morning. marcus. so senator peter walsh of vermont became the first senate democrat to call for president biden to bow out of the race. and after hosting a star studded fundraiser for the president just a few weeks ago, a high profile supporter, actor george clooney, is also weighing in. the clock is ticking on president biden's reelection bid. it's up to the president to decide if he is going to run. we're all encouraging him to

make that decision because time is running short. so far, less than a dozen democrats on capitol hill are publicly calling on the 81 year old to step aside, citing fears he won't beat former president trump. the majority are backing him. i will tell you when i'm telling my constituents at home, it was a very rough debate nigh. if you elect donald trump, it'll be four years of horrifically rough nights. others in the party say the focus should be on issues like protecting democracy. trump, who is unfit to be president, tried to overturn an election which is disqualifying. former president trump has said he believes biden will stay in the race. those on trump's short list for vice president agree. i think he's pretty dug in. major democratic fundraiser and actor george clooney is among a growing number of people urging the

party to pick a new nominee, writing in an op ed we are not going to win in november with this president. some americans say they'll support the top of the ticket no matter what. i'll back the democratic nominee, period. period. either way. either way, because to save the country today, president biden is seeking to make his case to the country. during his first solo press conference of the year. and this afternoon, senate democrats will hear from senior biden advisers and the biden campaign during a special caucus lunch. marcus. all right. brie jackson in washington this morning, bree, thank you. and monday night, lester holt sits down with president biden in an exclusive one on one interview. you can watch a preview on nbc nightly news at 4 p.m, and then the full, unedited interview in a prime time special at 6 p.m. right here on nbc. bay area later today. the company, which operates richmond's wastewater

treatment plant, plans to unveil what it describes as $40 million worth of improvements. this is the same facility that last december, literally caused quite a stink for neighbors, the company, called veolia, blamed the smell on a construction project which caused a spike in hydrogen sulfide levels, and that led to a stench in the surrounding area that left residents expressing frustration. the city issued a public nuisance violations against the company and even held special counsel hearings. new for you this morning in honor of levi stadium's 10th anniversary, the team is launching forty-niners cares about santa clara. it's an initiative to give philanthropic support to the city. it's pledging $250,000 per year for the stadium's lifetime to causes throughout santa clara. the 40 niners support santa clara middle and high school students and stem opportunities. this year, it's giving $100,000 to santa clara swim club and

$50,000 to bill wilson center, a nonprofit supporting local youth and families. the 49ers spokesperson said that the community support really is an important part of the 40 niners legacy. the spirit of giving is something that is top down. it comes from our ownership group. you know, we have the largest foundation in the nfl and that's because it has been a priority for them every single day to challenge us to think about new and better ways to give back to this community. community groups will soon be able to apply online for support from the 40 niners on their website. that's 40 niners.com/40 niners cares. well, today is july 11th and you know what that means okay, think about it. july 11th 711. yep. it's slurpee day at 711. and you can get a freebie. all you have to do is go to your local 7-eleven for a free small cup from the classic frozen cola and cherry flavors. also, others to

enjoy sometimes even have sugar free flavors. don't ask me how i know 7-eleven is celebrating its 97th birthday this year, and my kids? well, i'm sure they'll be making sure that the cars headed their today. yep. yeah. 7-eleven on a hot day. i mean, that's just perfect. it's perfect. yeah. and i get the regular for my kids. i like the sugar free. you go see, and everybody gets the same brain freeze. that's true, that's true, very true. you're going to enjoy it. and look for it though because it's going to be hot one. yes. drink it slowly. today we are going to have those hot temperatures with us as we go into late morning into the afternoon. and we are at the peak of the heat today as we take a live look outside in san jose. it's all clear. it looks hazy. look at this view where we are seeing the clouds and even the fog just kind of pouring over the marin headlands and over the golden gate bridge. yes, visibility is very low there. trying to cross the bridge and drive across, and that's keeping those temperatures cooler in the city.

as we are starting out with a morning in the mid 50s, is also in the mid 50s in much of the north bay, and at 67 in martinez. we're also in the upper 60s in livermore, 67 in san jose, los gatos. you're already at 83 degrees. not much of a cool down. and once again, as we go throughout the day, our temperatures will go from low 70s here to 90 at noon. so already heating up quickly. and we'll be in the mid to upper 90s throughout much of the day in morgan hill, it's going to be much hotter with a high of 106 degrees 107. in livermore and in moraga, a high of 100. we're also seeing highs at 100 for santa rosa and novato. but in the low 70s along the coast and into half moon bay going into tomorrow, temperatures start to come down a little bit, much more of a breeze that keeps the peninsula and the coastline cool, but we're still going to have some high heat in the valleys, and our heat risk goes

from major to moderate. for most of the east bay into the north bay. we're still hitting 99 in napa tomorrow, and 101 in los gatos tomorrow afternoon. but then on saturday, as more people are out and about, it's going to be much more comfortable. but we are also going to add in some humidity. we're going to see a surge of some mid-level moisture in the darker green indicates where we are going to see more clouds, and the possibility that this could also develop some thunderstorms and possibly some lightning. looks like the highest risk is to our south, but we'll continue to monitor that as it moves in a little bit closer. so we're trading the dry heat for humid heat this weekend. it's still going to feel hot, but at least those numbers are coming down. and on sunday we'll be in the low 90s. the dry air returns early next week with highs in the low 90s, which is still above normal, but a break from the triple digits. and i don't see any more of this excessive heat in the extended forecast. so that's the good news as after we make it through this, and we also still have san

francisco to go cool off, we are going to have some cooler weather ahead from sunday through much of next week. mike, you're seeing a little build at the bay bridge yeah, just now the last few minutes have seen the volume. now increasing for all these lanes approaching the toll plaza. and as you watch these cars approach that left edge of the screen, the toll plaza itself, you'll see some slowing as well. so that does indicate that there is a build up just past the toll plaza. the metering lights should be turned on, if not right now. in the next couple of minutes. it actually may be a little bit late for that to be indicated on the chp report. we do now see the typical pattern we expect pittsburg bay, point, concord. that's what we expect for those speed sensors to show that burst. now 242 southbound joining with 680. there highway 37 continues to build. there is a crash on, highway 29 up there, but not a major issue as far as the flow of traffic throughout the north bay. we're just watching that one crash as we look at the rest of the bay. the build now through the east bay off the contra costa county, castro valley out of contra costa county, and castro valley,

a smooth drive south down in through alameda county. and the build here for san jose northbound continues there and through fremont, heading down into the silicon valley. no major issues, and those should all clear up over the next few minutes and then kick in once again in about a half an hour. back to you. all right. thanks, mike. well, happening now a person is in custody. this is following a violent incident in san francisco. police say that a man forcibly removed a teenage girl from the powell street bart station and pulled her into his car. this all happened tuesday night. someone saw it happen, called 911. that teenager was found safe early yesterday. bart police say the incident was not random. the suspected kidnaper, 37 year old jamal blue. it does know the victim. it's certainly a busy morning here on today in the bay ahead at 6:00. we're following breaking news out of the east bay. multiple people are dead after a late night shooting in alameda. we are live at the scene with new details. investigators are revealing this morning. and a quick reminder
