good morning. it is saturday, august 17th and you're waking up to a live look at a pretty shaded walnut creek. some gloomy weather this morning. we'll check in with cynthia later to tell you how long it lasts. good morning everyone. i'm bigad shaban in for kira klapper and cynthia is here with a look at our microclimate forecast. hey,

cynthia. good morning. bigad. good morning everyone. yeah, that marine layer is stretching during the morning stretch out towards walnut creek and the valleys. we're also noticing a bit gloomier skies out in livermore. mostly the temperatures in the 50s and 60s and san francisco. that cloud deck is covering the city skyline. the reason for this is take a look at your screen. we have this counterclockwise rotation here, bringing some showers just to our north and also for the pacific northwest. so the things that you'll notice today as you step out the door or maybe not, it's a little bit of a sleeping kind of sleeping in kind of whether you're going to notice those that cloud cover remaining the breeze picking up, and the chance of that rain trickling in through parts of the north bay. yes, that return and the chance is there but a bit more clearer weather and some milder temperatures are in store for sunday and beyond, so i'll be back with all those details coming up in a few minutes. back to you. all right, cynthia, we will see you then. tiny homes in the south bay used to house the homeless could soon

be bought up and used for something totally different. but as today in the bay's jocelyn moran found out, the idea is controversial. i said, this is so overwhelming and my head is spinning. issa angelone is the president of safer san jose. he says during a virtual neighborhood meeting with the county, they were told of its plans to take over the emergency interim housing site on bernal and monterey road. santa clara county has put in an $8 million offer to purchase that site, as well as a permanent supportive housing site on vermont street from the city of san jose. we were defrauded. we felt like we got kicked in the gut and this isn't the way you operate. you have drug abuse, mentally ill, and you're roaming around in the neighborhood. i mean, that's 80 people or 78 people. here's how the county says it would work. the 78 bed site on monterey road wouldn't immediately convert into a jail diversion program. it would be done in phases starting in november. those who live there now would work with the city and county to find other locations to live in. or they could participate in the jail diversion program. the

voluntary program, and this would be for individuals that are receiving treatment and support. gaby olivares works within the behavioral health services department with the county. she says the site operator would remain the same. there would be 24 hour security, as well as services like case managers and therapists. it can be like the first time arrest somebody agreed to do treatment. it can be somebody that's coming out of our local county jail and has agreed to participate. she says the goal is to reduce incarceration rates and promote public safety. but residents say there needs to be more discussion around this before anything is decided. i need a chance to understand and the community needs a chance to understand the details. the city council has to vote on this. this was supposed to be discussed on august 27th, but the mayor's office says the city manager decided to delay that vote to give the city and county a chance to get on the same page. jocelyn moran, nbc, bay area news. and a statewide crackdown on crime. governor newsom has approved harsher

penalties and enhanced enforcement centering on car break ins and retail theft. he signed ten bills yesterday at a home depot in san jose. the laws target thieves and the people who resell or fence the stolen goods. the new laws make it easier to go after repeat offenders and increase penalties, including more jail time for those caught stealing the stolen goods. businesses can also now file restraining orders against people convicted of stealing from their stores. look, success is smashing these retail theft rings. success is breaking them apart. the california retail association pushed for these changes and says they'll be instrumental in curbing the problem. governor newsom says they were largely passed with bipartisan support. the stage is set in chicago for the democratic national convention, which kicks off tomorrow. nearly 500 delegates from across california are expected to be there. in

lafayette, one delegate is about to depart for her very first convention. and it happens to be a historic one with a wild turn of events leading up to it. today, in the bay's gia vang has more. deepa sharma. in may, when we were appointed as delegates, is only a few months into her new role as a democratic national convention delegate. her suitcase here in lafayette, nearly ready to go for a sunday flight. it's surreal. i thought that this was going to be sort of a sleepy affair. it's my first convention. i thought, okay, you know, i will cast my vote. i will do my duties. but now it's just taken on a different dimension. indeed it has. bay area native and vice president kamala harris will take the chicago stage thursday for the convention that begins sunday. harris had an unprecedented short runway to coalesce the party when she was thrusted into the presidential race, but delegates officially nominated her earlier this month. it's personal for deepa, who is also south asian. i didn't know that i would be in

the position to be nominating the first south asian and the first black woman to be the democratic nominee. there is a concerted effort for on thursday to wear white, so to give nod to the historic moment we're in. though still in a tight race with former president trump, harris will have to lay out her vision for undecided voters. it's about time. just that she communicates and packages all of her record together for the public to know who she really is. but it's no doubt her entrance has energized the party, including robert camacho from concord, a delegate since 2008. also flying out on sunday. this is my fourth convention, but i never felt this fired up going into this convention. and it's also reinvigorated donors. oh, it is good to be home at the san francisco fundraiser last weekend. harris raised $12 million, but even small dollar donations matter. just like

baking cupcakes made by a team of volunteers in los altos since 2020, thank yous for democratic donors, it's like bake back better on steroids. gia vang today in the bay and we will have full coverage of the democratic national convention all next week. our damian trujillo will be live in chicago providing reports from the convention. nbc news will also have all the moments from the convention floor beginning monday, and you can catch it all right here on nbc bay area. all right. well, as the dnc gets underway. former president, former president trump's campaign adviser says his schedule will start to pick up. during an interview on fox news, he said, you're going to see him on the road all week long. his senior adviser says he wants to see trump in front of the american people, but he didn't have any specifics about those upcoming events. well, things didn't go quite as planned on the campaign trail for former president trump's running mate, jd vance. the vp hopeful was flying from milwaukee to

cincinnati when his plane, you can see it there, was forced to make an emergency landing. officials say the plane's door seal malfunctioned shortly after takeoff. the issue was quickly fixed and the plane was able to take off again. vance was in milwaukee talking with the police association there. in his remarks, vance focused on his support for law enforcement and promised that a trump administration would support police officers. we've got to cut out with the anti law enforcement craziness. we've got to cut out what some of the policies that have come from the harris administration that make it harder for the police to do their job. senator vance has been busy on the campaign trail all week long, visiting pennsylvania and michigan. all right. now to a developing story in the east bay. it's a deadly shooting in berkeley, not far from the ashby bart station. it happened on adeline street just before 1 p.m. yesterday. police are searching for the suspects and answers as neighbors are expressing deep concern today in the bay's pete suratos has the details. reporter a deadly

shooting at this apartment complex in south berkeley is leaving the local community on edge. multiple neighbors, multiple other business owners. so many other people in this area have been concerned about the activity that goes on out there. this nearby business owner did not want to reveal her identity, but says customers have been complaining about the conditions for quite some time. a lot of trash. you know, using the bathroom outside on the street, and just general illegal activity. according to berkeley pd, officers responded to reports of gunshots around 1 p.m. officers say they found a man who had been shot to death inside of an apartment building. our hearts just go out to the deceased family and, we want there to be justice. we want to find out who did this. berkeley city council member ben bartlett represents the district and says shootings have gone down 22% in the city. this year. this

incident marks the third homicide in berkeley this year. three homicides is three too many. police are still looking for the suspects. if you have any information on the case, contact berkeley pd pete suratos. today in the bay. and we still have a lot more coming up preventing tragedies. we'll tell you what. some school districts are doing to protect young athletes. plus, the hype man is back from paris with a medal. we catch up with stanford gymnast asher plus, the hype man is back from paris with a medal. we catch up with stanford medal. we catch up with stanford gymnast asher

a global health emergency, but health leaders in san francisco say mpox cases in the city remain very low. the san francisco department of public health has been monitoring the city's wastewater since 2022, and they say currently the

city's seven day average for mpox cases is zero. in a post on social media, the city says it will continue to monitor wastewater looking for the outbreak variant. but so far no cases have been reported in the u.s. all right, moving on now to an added layer of precaution as kids head back to school, a few districts are now requiring student athletes to get a heart screening before they can play. students at the los gatos saratoga district will be screened for heart issues that could lead to sudden cardiac arrest, also known as sca. it's actually the number one killer of student athletes. now, these screenings are all made possible with the help from the kyle j. taylor foundation, which was created in honor of a former lee high school soccer player who unfortunately died of sca back in 2018. in the first year, about a thousand los gatos and saratoga high schoolers will be screened, and already two athletes have actually been flagged for moore evaluation. if those are the only two we find

this year it was worth the time and the effort. but when we see, children at risk being identified, i don't think you can put a price tag or a value on that. the kyle j. taylor foundation will provide screenings for foothill college for the first time this year. all right, well, as bay area students return to the classroom, one organization is making sure students are prepared to start the school year strong. the glide memorial church will be having a back to school backpack giveaway. supplies will be handed out to about 400 students in san francisco's tenderloin neighborhood. the event is happening at glide memorial church on ellis and taylor streets at 11 a.m, and we have more olympic medalists arriving back in the bay after their standout performances in paris. that, of course, includes stanford gymnasts. asher hong dismount. magic hit and stick.

look at that landing. all right, hong competed in four of the six events during the team final. he became known as the hype man for celebrating his teammates performances. it's actually the first time the u.s. men's gymnastics has won a medal since 2008. the bronze medalist sat down with our own raj mathai and said he's got him. going to the olympics was the culmination of years of hard work. you know, the moment you're on the podium and you see that flag raised, but, you know, it's also, you know, a peer into the future. and you know, what we kind of did for our sport. and, you know, men's gymnastics is not the most popular, not during the olympics. but now that, you know, we kind of got a medal and we're back on the podium, i feel like it's a good it's a good momentum for us. so what's next for asher? well, he'll actually join simone biles and a dozen other gymnastics stars for the gold america tour, which actually has a stop in san jose

september 21st. all right, now to a live look at the oakland coliseum. you can see the fog creeping in there where the a's and the giants will be facing off in what should be the final bay bridge series. the a's at this point are just playing out the string, but the giants are still in the hunt for a wild card spot, currently sitting three and a half games back. both today and tomorrow's games are at the coliseum, and in the meantime, the a's suddenly seem closer than ever to their future home. to use a baseball analogy, las vegas is apparently now rounding third in approving plans for the new stadium on the strip. that's what one key member of the visitors authority says he believes final approval for the remaining outstanding documents will happen by mid-december, with the stadium's 2028 opening still well in reach. okay, let's switch now to football. there's not much news on the brandon hallock 49ers contract impasse. he was seen at practice working out on the side. meanwhile, his teammates

were gearing up for their second exhibition game. their opponents are the new orleans saints head coach kyle shanahan said some of the starters, like brock purdy, should see some action once purdy is done. quarterbacks brandon allen and josh dobbs will take over. the two are battling to be purdy's primary backup. kickoff for sunday's game is at 5:00 at levi's stadium. comic book characters, cosplayers and celebrities are taking over the south bay this weekend. it's all part of galaxycon, which is making its debut in downtown san jose. the three day event is expected to bring big crowds to the city, the so-called festival of fandom features exhibits for comic books, anime and gaming. fans will also get the chance to meet some of their favorite artists, writers and performers. that includes william shatner, who played captain kirk in star trek. the event started yesterday and went until 2 a.m. it will reopen at 10 a.m. this morning. the opening show of the

golden gate park concert series kicks off today. that means you can expect about 50,000 music fans to gather for what promises to be quite a show. the lineup includes system of a down, the deftones and the mars volta. the show is sold out. it's all happening at the polo fields, which is actually the same area where outside lands was held last weekend. promoters are urging everyone coming to the concert to walk, ride or take transit. gates open at 1:30 p.m. today and the music starts at 3:00. so the question is, cynthia, what will the weather be like for them? golden gate park there's drizzle already. the grass might be a little bit slippery as people head out towards the field. we're dealing with this unusual kind of august weather to start our weekend, but the good news is it's not entirely ruined. better clearing for our sunday plans. out the door this morning. you'll see some patchy clouds, temperatures. still some sweater weather to start the day. 50s and 60s. we noticed that gloomy skies out towards san francisco.

let me show you on satellite and radar what is behind this pattern that you'll notice and definitely feel out towards our saturday plans. a low pressure system taking that counterclockwise turn, bringing some light rain up towards parts of the northern coast into oregon, and we're even detecting some lightning offshore here, but closer to the bay area. so what is that going to mean for your saturday plans? it will be a bit of a gloomy day, so if you want to stay in bed a little longer, i don't blame you. i wish though too, as we go through mid morning we'll notice a little bit more green on our screen. there just the chance of some patchy rain out towards the northern coast up into marin, napa and sonoma counties. san francisco out towards half moon bay. so the chance of seeing that windshield wiper go back and forth. i also want you to take it a little bit slower on the roadways with the chance of this rain. we haven't seen it in a while, so the roadways could be a little bit more slick. notice though, for the rest of the bay area, if you're not in

that chance of rain, there is a chance of seeing those gloomy skies continue all day long. feeling that breeze so that summer furniture out there could be going back and forth. the good news is here, as i mentioned, for our sunday, we do see some better clearing and some milder temperatures ahead. most of that rain will stay to the north. it is not much, but it is unusual for august, usually our driest portion of the summer. here in california traces amounts to maybe a quarter inch. if we squeeze out that much to our north for temperatures today, we're also going to remain below average. so a bit of that chance of feeling like fall out there. upper 70s to some low 80s for our inland valleys. we've knocked off about ten degrees and the coastline will also remain cool and breezy as we take a look ahead at what's happening through hurricane ernesto. it will continue to move offshore after impacting bermuda this morning so it won't hit land, but it will bring that chance of dangerous surf to the east coast in our inland. seven

day forecast after a bit of a gloomy start to the weekend, we'll see clearing and improving conditions for sunday and actually warming up as we take a look right there. center of our screen. a little bit of a midweek boost in those temperatures into the 90s and san francisco. it will be subtle as we get clear of this. a drizzly start to the weekend sunshine is ahead. all right, cynthia, thank you. and still coming up on today in the bay a south bay doctor who just turned 99 has lived a remarkable life helping his family and others. the impression has left has been left on so many. he's part of our bay aa proud segment.re (intercom) flight deck we are go for launch!

economic agenda. now, this comes before tomorrow's start of the democratic national convention. nbc's gabe gutierrez has the story. vice president harris is rolling out her economic agenda, acknowledging most americans are dissatisfied with the cost of living because, look, the bills add up for many families. there's not much left at the end of the month. but saying her proposals will provide relief. donald trump fights for billionaires and large corporations. we i will fight to give money back to working and middle class americans, including an expanded child tax credit up to $6,000 for families with newborns and up to $25,000 in down payment assistance for first time home buyers. christel hardin calls that proposal a game changer for her two daughters. that is going to tremendously affect my family because two homes will be purchased right away. harris is also calling for a controversial proposal to fight inflation, a federal ban on what her campaign

calls price gouging in the food industry. most businesses are creating jobs, contributing to our economy and playing by the rules, but some are not. but harris is providing few details on her plans, which one nonpartisan group says will add $1.7 trillion to the deficit. and both republican and democratic economists have argued against government price controls. former president trump, comparing the policy to venezuela's socialist leader nicolas maduro. we call it the maduro plan like something straight out of venezuela or the soviet union. this and democratic economists have argued against government price controls. former president trump, comparing the policy to venezuela's socialist leaderut e up nearly 20% compared to four years ago. this iss, telling us inflationnt. here, our food s here are incredibly high. the everyday things that people feee

month, and she'll formally accept that nomination at the dnc as the first woman of color to be a major party's candidate for president. it's surreal. i thought that this was going to be sort of a sleepy affair. it's my first convention. i thought, okay, you know, i will cast my vote. i will do my duties, but now it's just taken on a different dimension. harris will have to lay out her own vision for undecided voters in her speech when she gives that speech. sharma says women identifying as delegates will wear white, which is a nod to the women's suffrage movement, which fought for women's rights to vote. and we will have full coverage of the democratic national convention all next week. our own damian trujillo will be live in chicago providing reports from the convention. nbc news will also have all the moments from the convention floor beginning monday. and you can catch that. all right, here on nbc bay area. as the dnc gets underway, former

to be a lot more discussion around the plan. oakland's police chief says crime is trending in the right direction. it's important for our community to understand that when violent crime does happen in our city, we are taking it seriously and we are putting the resources that we have out there. chief floyd mitchell held the first of what he says will be a regular public safety meeting series to address crime trends. he says the numbers show violent crime and overall overall crime are trending down. the chief credits his own department as well as outside agency support, as well as proactive policing that includes increased patrols. but he admits budget constraints and ongoing staffing shortages are a challenge. chief mitchell says he's waiting on results from a study later this year aimed at providing answers on how to best address the department's staffing shortages. and still to come on today in the bay i'm ginger conejero saab from inside

says the goal is to reduce incarceration rates and promote public safety. but residents there say there needs to be a lot more discussion around the new plan, and the stage is set in chicago for tomorrow's start of the democratic national convention. about 500 delegates from across california are expected to be there, including some from the bay area. vice president harris will have to lay out her vision for undecided voters in her speech on thursda, when she officially accepts the dnc nomination. now, when she gives that speech, female delegates are expected to wear white, which is a nod to the women's suffrage movement, which of course, fought for women's rights to vote. and we will have coverage of the democratic national convention all next week. our damian trujillo will be giving live reports from chicago, and nbc news will also have all the moments from the convention floor beginning monday. and you can, of course, catch all of that right here on nbc bay area. and as the dnc gets underway, former president trump's campaign adviser says

his schedule will start to pick up during an interview on fox news, he said, you're going to see the former president on the road all week long. the senior adviser says he wants to see trump in front of the american people, but he didn't give any specifics about upcoming events. and as bay area students return to the classroom, one organization is making sure students are prepared to start the school year strong. the glide memorial church will be having a back to school backpack giveaway. supplies will be handed out to about 400 students in san francisco's tenderloin neighborhood. the event is happening at glide memorial church on ellis and taylor streets at 11 a.m, and cinthia pimentel is back with another check of our forecast. sort of a gloomy start this weekend, but isn't going to last. it's a split weekend, so for today it will feel like a little bit like fall crisper air. we've got some gloomy skies and we also got the chance of some drizzle and rain, especially up towards the north bay. and temperatures will be

slightly cooler today as well. after that we get into some clearing and some warmer numbers on the board there. as we go on into monday and tuesday. also the middle part of the week before we transition to cooler. so we've kind of been on this wave here throughout the summer of some warm temperatures throughout our workweek. san francisco. notice that cloudy icon for today? if you're going out towards the coast, expect to bring a jacket and maybe use those windshield wipers as well, as we deal with some breezy conditions, we'll see a mix of sun and clouds really throughout the rest of that workweek there tomorrow. upper 60s as well. and maybe the touch of getting into some low 70s there by the middle portion of the week. so a bit of a strange pattern for, you know, the middle of august, but we'll take it. i'm ready for, you know, some apple cider, maybe just some cozier weather to sleep in. and then that sounds. and then we're still going to have i see 90s creeping in next week in parts of the bay. so we've got it all. we'll take it all. all right cynthia, thank

you. and thanks to you for making us part of your morning. we will, of course, have more local news for you tonight at five, six and 11. and of course, all day long on our website. that's nbcbayarea.com for now. enjoy that gloomy weather outside as much as you can. have a great day everyone. we'll see you soon when we're young, we're told anything is possible... ...but only a few of us go out and prove it. witness the greatness of anna hall on a connection worthy of gold: xfinity mobile. only xfinity gives you the most powerful mobile wifi network, with speeds up to a gig in millions of locations. and right now, xfinity internet customers can buy one unlimited line and get one free for a year.
