61 in downtown san francisco. nevado still a little warm up there at 81 degrees at this hour. so it's interesting when we look at this difference between temperatures for 24 hours ago to now, because you look at concord spa pick up to 92 yesterday. 10 degrees cooler. so the spots where the warmest are now, the ones in cool down the most. in fact, we warmed up a little bit in san francisco. this is that mount tam cam that show you that marine layer on the moon. if you really look at kind of see it rolling. so today, obviously we're still warm inland. these are inland temperatures as we go through the weekend drop it down a few more degrees. but we've got more warmth on the other side of that to the question is what's going on there? right? and i'll show you, we've got marine layer building in right now. we've got a little low pressure to our north and our west. but behind that, you can't really see that yet is more high-pressure, another ridge that's going to roll in. so that happens we get into monday here comes and that builds in. now. it doesn't look like it's going to be as warm as what we just went through. having said that, it will be above average. so take

a look at your weekend, right? we've got low 80's inland and then we head into next week. we're talking low to mid almost mid-nineties monday, tuesday, wednesday and then it will pull back again to the 80's thursday and friday. so a little bit of a seesaw with the temperatures over the next few days. we catch a break when we head towards the weekend. thanks, kyla. still ahead, the fda recalling so to serve across california restaurant where they were deemed too dangerous to drink. >> plus, juneteenth celebrations taking over san francisco this weekend. what you need to know about the parade route and street closures. keep it for news at 4. we'll be right back.

see the cars that they go and join the block parties. but we've seen tremendous growth from last year to this year. and you consider the how many other parades the city has that have been happening for decades. and to finally have this one that centers black culture. is pretty special. the real struggle, i think to some degree is people who may say, well, everybody, all the black people left san francisco. why would you do this parade here? and i think that's even more reason to do it is to say that we are committed to whether it's 1 1000 or 100,000 that we are committed to addressing the disparities and some of the harm that's continued to be done, where people have felt unwelcome here. and so doing this parade for me says we want folks to realize that they're welcome here. >> the festival will begin at noon at civic center plaza and it will run until 06:00pm more than 10,000 people are expected to attend for more information on events this month. you can check out the san francisco juneteenth website. and we have a

complete list of juneteenth celebrations here in the bay. just scan this qr code will take you directly to the juneteenth section of our website at kron 4 dot com. >> coming up, we break down the latest numbers in last month's job report. what unemployment rates look like across the country. plus, the first ever documented death from a black bear in california. what we know about the fatal encounter and this year foothills and then a bill targeting those junk fees on event, tickets, hotels, food deliveries and the like, maybe that's not going to happen with a new proposal that's been put forward that would allow those surcharges

>> the new state law targets so-called junk fees, but businesses, it goes into effect next month. but there is a proposal now that would allow restaurants to keep attacking those surcharges if they reveal the cost ahead of time. reporter erin myers has details. >> the new law goes into effect on july. first require all in pricing. so that means no hidden charges or fees that you find out about later. but there may be some leeway for restaurants, but let's start with that new law senate bill. 478 makes it illegal for businesses to advertise our list, a price for goods or service. that doesn't include all of the fees and charges associated with it other than tax and shipping costs. oftentimes they are hitting season, which is stellar, uses a low price to attract the customer and then disclose additional fees in smaller print reveals additional charges later in the buying

process. you see this with event tickets, hotels and lodging, restaurants and food delivery. the honest pricing laws meant to protect consumers from deceptive price advertising by showing the all-in price for goods and services up front before getting the bill. this makes it easier for consumers to compare prices between merchants. now a new proposal would make an exception for restaurants. it would allow restaurants to continue to add see such a surcharges and mandatory gratuities. as long as the charges are revealed upfront clearly and conspicuously this instead of using those all in prices, those extra charges allow restaurants to make contributions to workers, health care and other employee benefits. there had been some confusion as initially the state attorney general's office said restaurants could keep surcharges. but later said charges had to be included in the prices on the menu. this proposal would clarify that. as for the proposal, this is what people this morning had to say. of course, i want restaurant workers to get. >> but they're supposed to getting in all the things like that. so i think 100% if it's written on the menu. shown out

to the customer, i think i'm completely ok with that. but yeah, i think it's when it's hidden from you. and it just gets frustrating as a customer of the new law doesn't require businesses to change their prices. it just makes it easier for consumers to know what they're paying up front. >> and that was erin myers reporting for us. man was arrested after police say he was selling drugs on social media to children in santa rosa. police say 32 year-old, diaz was selling marijuana, thc, vape pens, mushrooms, and cocaine to teenagers. they say he would use instagram, snap chat and telegram to reach the kids and use cash app and venmo for payment. police say last month they spotted the as picking up a student in the back of a sonoma county high school to give them drugs. saw officers later detained him during a traffic stop during a search warrant at the suspect's home. police say

cooled down and look how breezy it is. i was downtown today and i walked across the street, my hair just straight up. it was crazy. we've got get the flags flapping. we got the palm fronds moving. all the leaves are wrestling. and yet, you know, the reports of wind not terribly impressive 9 miles per hour coming through the golden gate, picking up into fairfield at 26 miles per hour. so we see some winds basically with an onshore trajectory and that keeps things cool along the entire california coast 50's 60's. that's great. but you know how to spell the temperatures in the center of state right now. h ot bakersfield 103, fresno, 102 that we have lost the heat advisories across the bay area and even the excessive heat e been scaled back now you see in the deserts of southern california into the parts of the central valley, the san joaquin valley, excessive heat continues there. but for much milder, even though you see some highs right now in the 80's in the

in eastern, most parts of the east bay. still, that's a lot cooler than yesterday. antioch, 82 livermore. 83. that is about 10 degrees cooler than yesterday. at this hour. and temperatures right along the california coastline in san francisco. a little bit warmer than yesterday. low pressure is starting to affect our weather. but high pressure will be coming back. so i've got the extended forecast coming up. all right, a judge dismisses several state charges against paul pelosi's attacker who was convicted in federal court. >> last month following that federal conviction, state prosecutors brought their own case against david de pap, but his public defender says that the state trial represents double jeopardy for the pap in response. the judge on thursday dismissed state charges of attempted murder, elder abuse and assault with a deadly weapon. but to still faces charges including false imprisonment, residential burglary, threatening a family
