but only 58 degrees? half moon bay. compared to 24 hours ago, it's a is a-degree drop in san francisco. we continue with that trend and the breeze is picking up right now out of the west, gusting to 26 in oakland. larry? >> thank you, sandhya. there was a football game canceled due to a threat. then it was back on then canceled again, all because of a threat. eric thomas joins us with the latest. eric? >> reporter: i'm at san lndro high school. today was marked by what you didn't see here. you didn't see varsity players with their gameday jerseys on. and the actual game that's behind the school building here should be under way right about now. that's not -- while the varsity sits out the friday night game, the junior varsity has

walk-throughing prior to their contest tonight at clayton valley. even the jv is disappointed. >> i wanted to see them play. it's mostly fun to watch. >> the kids are hurt. they've been working hard all week to work, you know, prepare for a game that, you know, we were looking forward to. >> reporter: san leandro administrators say the non-conference game was called off following a unspecified threat, but there are reports the threats were gang violence, possibly a shooting at the field. >> our school resource officers were contacted, and said there is a threat originating from outside both of the school communities. >> we heard what was happening, yeah, we're concerned that not only the team safety, but the and the kids. >> reporter: oakland unified released a statement today --

but so far no date or place has been settled on. if one is, school officials say they won't announce it. oakland's jv coach said it could affect their players' futures. >> we get calls from san diego state, portland state s. they could see both parties. >> reporter: now, both teams say they looked forward to this game every year, even though it's non-conference. they're pretty high in the power rankings, so they're a bit upset. the varsity coach has been quoted as saying he doesn't think there's going to be makeup game, but administrators in both school districts say they disagree and they're working hard on that. so, eric, in terms of rescheduling, have they proposed any dates, or basically it's all up in the air. you mentioned there's this uncertainty out there.

>> reporter: yeah, one of the coaches mentioned to me -- the san leandro coach was not available for comment, but one of the clymans coaches said they turned down some proposed dates, they were just not appropriate. so the administration is trying to get together with safety in mind, of course, that's job one, to make sure this game happens, but conceivably there could be little in the way of audience participation, because they're not going to make a big deal announcing where and when the game is. >> that i can you, eric thomas reporting live. parents of students at one oakland school are still trying to keep that school from closing, even though the board has decided it can no longer keep kaiser open, it will merge with san does that kofa, and many parents don't like that. lee ann melendez explains.

>> the displacement that happened with the school closures is terrible, and what happens with our students is traumatizing to them. it stays with them lump last wednesday parents interrupted the school board meeting, even though the board had previously voted to close kaiser, which will now merge with sankofa. in this same oakland unified reiterating its position, stating -- what has surprised and upset board members the most is a letter send by kaiser teachers and obtained by abc 7 news, basically stating that they are unwilling to work anywhere else but kaiser.

teachers wrote, we will not participate in any planning process or transition team around the move, even if the school board were to approved the plan. the letter has drawn criticism, because kaiser is located in the oakland hills which has a higher income bracket, and sankofa is in the flatlands. the teachers union accused the district of trying to divide and conger. >> there's a perception that kaiser only cares about kaiser, but that's not the case. they are reaching out and engaging with the community members at sankofa. it's about doing what's right for kids all over the district. >> reporter: the teachers union blames the districts for allowing charter schools to draw dollars from the traditional public schools. in oakland s. leeanne melendez, abc 7 news. abc 7 news was at chevron's headquarte headquarters? san ramon where a large group of

protesters gathered. a majority of those in the crowd were children, though there were a few older activists. this was one of the last demonstrations of the week in the bay area, after we saw tens of thousands of people pack san francisco mondays. while the date and location may have changed, the message remains the same. [ chanting ] >> there was a counterprotest's well, but the group was significantly smaller than the main demonstrations. take out these pictures from 10-year-old savannah skinner staged a solo protest. she says she's getting involved in the effort because, quote, adults aren't taking it seriously and it's my generation that will be taking the consequences. and a fresh wave of climate strikes swept across the world today, as thousands walked out of who, or school.

this is video from auckland, new zealand where people demanded action. in rome, this was taken this morning, he talked to students who walked off class. this is helsinki, finland, to raise awareness of climate change. here in the u.s., some 22 separate groups blocked streets during the morning rush. the demonstrations cap off a week of protest there is and around the world that began a week ago did the climate action strike organ ized by greta thunberg. an inspection of the scuba boat is now over t officials say they should not find a cause for the fire, and parts of the vessel have been sent to labs for additional testing. 34 people died when the boat burst into flames off the coast earlier this month.

the coast guard, the fbi, the u.s. attorney's office in los angeles, and the national transportation safety board are all taking part in the investigation. in the south bay, burglars have now broken into an almaden valley church two times, stealing thousands of worth of goods belonging to a local boy scout group. >> chris winn joins us with m e more. >> reporter: someone broke into this -- and stole a valuable trailer belonging to a boy scouts troop. that trailer was fined yesterday, but with nothing left inside. at almaden hills united methodist church, disbelief and disappointment. >> they came over the rafters. they had a bolt cutter in order to get the garage door open and the lock off the trailer hitch. they took the trailer. >> a trailer belonging to troop

262, filled with more than $12,000 worth of camps equipment. all gone in a matter of minutes. tech be the people who stole itened ended up with the trailer are not the same. >> they found this near a homeless group, but whoever stole it had to have a means to tow it away. >> they were helping them lives by stealing stuff to sell. >> reporter: this is the second time the church and troop have been targeted. >> the first time we got broken into, the troop came together and we all collected bottles and cans we turned into the recycle center. that's how we raised money. we were grasping at straws. >> reporter: the children is working on upgrading the security, but asking anyone with information to help. >> we're a small church. i really want people to stop

breaking in. i want people to stand up and say, this is enough. >> it's personal property crimes that are really frustrating, not just for me, the boy scouts and the church, but the people in the neighborhood who have their packages taken. >> reporter: if you'd like to help, the church is accepting donations on behalf of the boy scouts. the troop will also be selling steer at cherry and almaden expressway in san jose. i'm chris nguyen, abc 7 news. impeachment battle. we'll have the latest on the inquiry and what may have led to this week's announcement. it's closing time. san francisco restaurants are at rink. why so many are closing their doors for good.

i never thought we would see a president take the access he has. in fact, i don't think our founders ever thought a president would do such a thing. the president goes beyond

irresponsible. whistle-blowers have an important role to play in unfolding -- revealing wrongdoing in our government. house speaker nancy pelosi warned against retaliation by president donald trump today, as he lashed out at anybody who might have helped the intelligence whistle-blower. joining mess is nancy pelosi's daughter christine with a closer look at the inquiry. you obviously have unique insight. in addition to being an attorney yourself and a democratic strategist. have you talked to your mom lately? >> actually, i spent the week with her in d.c. i just came home today. >> it had to be just turmoil and a lot of breaking news happen. just to be mountain midst of all of that going on. >> the thing about nancy pelosi, ever since he was raising the five of us, born six years and one week, was the wilder and more frenetic things get, the

calmer she gets. in the eye of the storm you look to nancy pelosi. that's when she is the most sure-footed and the most steady. i think it was really exciting to be there, we happened that i was there for the memorial for victims of gun violence, maddy scott from here, from san francisco, went along with 30 groups. we there to honor murder victims, people killed by gun violence, and all this other news was breaking at the same time. >> it seemed like your mother resisted t impeachment calls for months. so what finally pushed her over to go to the side where, we have to do this? what changed her mind? did she talk with you about it as a strategist yourself saying, should we do this? >> well, it happened all in front of us. it's one thing to say there's a person who's done a lot of bad things that we believe, we're not sure we can prove, but he went out and released a

transcript. well, first, with notes and recollections, but then ultimately a transcript of the conversation. even his summary was impeachable conduct. so it was pretty incredible to see the president of the united states fully admit that he had held up aid to the president of ukraine and said, well, i want you to do me a favor firth. when the president of ukraine asked the united states for missiles. i think the misconduct was happening in plain sight. you really couldn't avoid it, and so last weekend, you know, we talked about what she was going to do, but first she gave the eulogy for cokie roberts, a newswoman who massed from cancer last week, paid her respects to emily clyburn, wife of james clyburn. she said i'm going to get through the funerals, pay my respects, and we're going to get to work on this. she had written a very rare

sunday morning dear colleague letter, to say we have toss this whistle-blower complaint, this whistle-blower who told the story of these phones calls. it turns out not just the story of the phone calls, but stories about how, in the trump administration not only are there certainly communications made with foreign governments, but when they were made, they are then taken and put in a classified setting away from view, and most important, away from congressional review. since nancy pelosi wrote the whistle-blower act and passed the bill that established the office of the national director of intelligence, she knows better than most people that the role of national security is congress and the president working together and not hiding information from each other. >> i'm sure you two had conversations about the impact of what this would be, both in terms of the xweefldment process, and one of the thoughts

was that there's a nothing this would empower represents. we've seen president trump's fund-raising increase dramatically just in the last week. what was your feeling in terms of the impact that it might back fire on the democratic party? >> it wasn't a matter of fund-raising. he'll have as much money as they can possibly print. as john f. kennedy said when he was running for president, they said richard nixon has more experience. he said i don't need as much, just enough to pass the threshold. similarly we're not ever going to out-raise the republican party, but if we raise enough money and more importantly volunteers, we were outspent in 2018, but we won the house. i think the cal inclusion had more to do with the fact that the caucus wasn't there. nancy pelosi is the best vote counter in the country, better than anybody. she weaves her caucus together, and she also, even if she's not

whipping a vote, she's counting a vote. one of the things that was very important this weekend was that the people with national security experience, people that she had either encouraged to run or when they were running said if you come here, particularly women and people of color with national security experience, i'm going to put on you a committee, veterans, foreign affairs, appropriations, armed services, committees that overlook national security, because her view has always been we need more diversity in that decision making. as it turns out the seeds planted years ago resulted, in part, in the fact that the tide really turned when seven national security democrats, freshmen in very, very swing districts wrote a letter in which they said we basically have taken an oath to protect the constitution since we were teenagers and entered service. and this conduct is simply too much to bear, we have to move

forward. >> okay. we could talk for hours probably on this subject. we're out of time for now. i know you have a book coming out as well. come back again and we can get into that if that works. >> i want to say on the anniversary of christine blasey ford's testimony, our hearts still go out to her, and we think about how she was trited as a whistle-blower, how this whistle-blower is being treated. i think it's important for us to remember, this is a somber time. we have to protect sources so that they do come forward if they see a wrong and try to make it right. >> thank you for coming in. we'll see you soon. >> thank you. sandhys a here with the witt weather. >> this is part of the reason the marine layer has been stubbornly hanging on. 60 in san francisco, mid 60s

around oakland. 76 in san jose, 70 in girl royal. the breeze is beginning to pick up. 68 in santa rosa, petaluma 69. a live looked from our santa cruz camera, where they are seeing sunshine. it's not gray everywhere, but certainly lingering longer than we norm ate see. we're expecting blustery and below-average conditions in the afternoon the coast will be getting closer to about 40 miles an hour, 3:30 in the afternoon. those winds will remain with us for saturday night as well. if you have any loose items in your backyard, on your patio, make sure you secure it. a, we still have quite a bit of cloud cover. the clouds want to actually pull out of here. in the mountains the cloud will

increase, as a cold system dies down. they're looking at snow showers in the sierra and in tahoe, where winter weather advisories are going up tomorrow. temperatures first thing in the morning, you will definitely notice the chill. it's going to be a schooler start in the morning, and then for the afternoon, keeping it on the cooler than average side of usual. 69 oakland, san mateo 66, 73 in santa rosa, and the windy conditions are going to continue throughout the afternoon and the evening as well tomorrow. nod just this morning. we'll call it a blustery day. cool by autumn standards on sunday, only low 70s, on monday as well. then we're going to go with a reversal. beginning on tuesday, less cloud cover, more sunshine, and it would be milder with numbers coming back up closer to average by midweek, and then not a lot

of change for your friday. overall the pattern has changed dramatically from earlier this week when we were talking about the hot conditions. so it feels a bit like fall in fall. >> actually. >> thanks, sandhya. honors bruce bochy. how can you take part in the celebration as the giants say good-bye to their longtime skip sgleer plus restaurant closings

years, he is calling it quits. he's say retired, though some have him rumored for the padres job. that t-shirt is looking good. >> it looks like size m m m m m you. >> i know, this might disappear. they're going to try to create the largest foghorn sound effect. i have it. >> so everyone's going to do that? >> they're knoll going to do it with these, there's an appear at the ballpark, so it has the foghorn sound effects. >> that's going to be great. >> how about every time i say something ridiculous, you press there? we'll wear on you the batteries in no time. hopefully the giants can get a few wins against the dodgers. thank you and farewell. >> does it work?

they took $12.8 billion from big tobacco. juul marketed mango, mint, and menthol flavors, addicting kids to nicotine. five million kids now using e-cigarettes. the fda said juul ignored the law with misleading health claims. now juul is pushing prop c, to overturn san francisco's e-cigarette protections. say no to juul, no to big tobacco, no to prop c.

we turn now to washington, and the whistle-blower complaint at the center of the impeachment inquiry. democrats accuse the white house of a cover-up while president trump is lashing out over its release.

rachel scott joins us in washington with more. reich rachel? >> good afternoon to you. yes, that whistle-blower cmplaint fueling the impeachment investigation into president trump. the majority of the house now behind the push, this as president trump continues to defend the call in question, calling it perfect, and lashes out against the whistle-blower that sounded the alarm. a rattled washington still reeling from the whistle-blower complaint that's now triggered an impeachment inquirinquiry. >> the president has engaged in serious acts of wrongdoing. >> reporter: a white house officials appears to have confirmed a key detail in that complaint, centered around efforts to keep hidden details of a call president trump had >> this is a cover-up. e. >> reporter: according to a summary of that call, the president repeatedly urged the ukrainian leader to investigate joe biden and his son. there's a tug of war between the

white house and the congress. >> this appears to be the first intelligence community whistle-blower complaint that has ever, ever been withheld from congress. >> it is in fact, as far as i'm concerned, unprecedented. >> reporter: the whistle-blower said white house officials told them they were deeply sdurnd by the calls, raising concerns democrats say that comment gives them a road map for the impeachment investigations, republicans taking sure with the whistle-blower's credibility. >> the fact is he was not a witness to any of it. >> reporter: they plan to continue their investigations through the congressional recess. the president behind closed doors venting his frustrations as seen in this video. >> the whoever gave the whiffle blower information, that's close to a spy. you know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart. we used to handle it differently than we do now.

>> tonight we are learns that the inspector general, who deemed that whistle-blower complaint of urgent concern and credible, will meet with the house intelligence committee next friday. reporting live in washington, rachel scott, abc 7 news. ama? >> thank you, rachel. new developments in the vaepg epidemic. a new study from the cdc suggests that the thc-based products are the ones mons often leading to the severe lung disease. they still haven't identified a single device or ingredient. 13 reported deaths in the u.s., including two in california. more than 800 have gotten sick in 46 different stakes. we are committed to looking at some of the changes. san francisco is known as a haven for great food, but restaurants in the city are

increasingly finding it hard to stay open. this month several well-known restaurants have announced they are closing their doors for good. we are looking into why this is happening. liz, what's up? highway hi, i'm outside pal minnow, which after 26 years, is closing its doors. we showed up and there's a gentleman literally taking down this iconic sign. pal palomino, the owners saying the condition make it too hard to stay open. restaurants are close, palomino, pete's -- and the list goes on. the owner of the south indians chain announced after 15 years, he is shutting the doors of his original location. it seemed like the perfect storm that hit us.

>> reporter: part of that, the rise in food delivery. companies like uber eats and door dash have not only changed eating habits, but also profits. we're giving up about 25%, 30% of our prices, you know, to the delivery companies. >> he's not alone. jay foster closed two restaurants this year. he penned this estate, where he said customers just want instagramable foods without having to wait. he said we were a $3 million company at the time, but even that wasn't enough to survive in san francisco. >> the restaurant association has been looking into the trend. they found that restaurants closings are outpacing openings by 9%. last year, for instance, they were 325 closings ver 298 openings. he says it's not just delivery companies, but rising rent costs and increased labor requirements. >> if you want neighborhood restaurants, keep adding to the vibrancy of each of these

neighborhoods, you have to think about the laws you put in place that could potentially have a devastating impact across the bay area, potentially. railroad recently a group of restaurant owners went to the san francisco board of supervisors to talk to them about this issue. they said given the number of workers, they asked if the city could extend transportation hours, asked the city to look at the budget for small businesses, and to think of maybe they could figure out a way to subsidize some of the high cost foss these businesses. live in san francisco, abc 7 news. list, in in the meantime, what are some of the owners trying to do to adapt to what is a changing and increasingly difficult environment? >> reporter: the restaurants owner know they have to adapt. the orange of dosa said he will be focusing on his restaurant in oakland, also focus on his business partnership with whole
