>> full containment is expected next thursday. so november 7th. good morning on this wednesday, october 30th. >> we have live team coverage. we're starting with mike nicco who has been tracking the l'skts with those winds. what we'reeeg is a bay. 50 in parts of the east bay. right now pegging around 25 to 40. so the tapering is starting, which means the good news is unfolding. >> right now at the lower elevations, it was probably quieter than it was over the weekend. right now 23 gusting at fairfield. still 41 with that down sloping wind at half moon bay. it's nearly 20 degrees warmer than it was this time yesterday. it is the coast, the santa cruz mountains, the dab miablo rangee east bay still under normal fire conditions until 4:00 this afternoon. the north bay was under a wind

advisory. that expired. winds not reaching that level, but still at critical fire. watch our wind forecast from now up until noon, gusting from 15, 20, maybe 25 in the hills. look what happens by 4:00. single digits in the lower elevations, teens and 20s in the hills. that's below critical fire conditions. we get to that, we can all take a deep breath. we have nice weather coming up for several days, maybe a couple of weeks in the accuweather seven-day forecast. >> thanks. >> right now is a krirt ccritic. >> firefighters are hoping to get through red flag conditions and into calmer weather so they can put this fire out. liz kreutz joins us from sonoma county fairgrounds in santa rosa. liz? >> good morning. right now we are waiting to get an update from cal fire. we hope to get that update within the next hour, 7:00 a.m.

is when firefighters here at base camp get their update. we should have updated numbers on the containment and how much this fire may have grown overnight. until then we have that good news, that is that since the winds have subsided, a cal fire spokesperson tells me we have not seen new significant spot fires overnight that would have gone into residential communities. no new evacuations. there was a concern the winds would push the fire towards santa rosa. the kincade fire still continues to burn. this video that we have shows transformation learning center outside of windsor burning yesterday evening. it was burned by one of those hot spots. so businesses and homes are not out of the woods yet. back out here at the sonoma county base camp, many firefighters are just waking up to begin their shift on that cold morning.

a bright spot is this pop-up pete's truck offering first responders complimentary coffee. it's a simple gesture that firefighters says goes a lodge way. officials do believe if they can get through the next wind event they're hopeful to get a handle on the fire and increase that containment. liz kreutz, abc7 news. >> shout out to pete's and the other small businesses and local chefs feeding our firefighters and evacuees. appreciate that. there's concern this morning that the strong winds could push the kincade fire further into the north into lake county. >> that's where amy hollyfield is live this morning. amy? >> here is a look at the kincade fire. we are in middletown looking at it. we're in lake county. it looks big, but it looks like

it's holding steady. we're not watching it roar in many directions like what we saw on that first day of the fire when the wind was really howling. we are not experiencing wind down here in the town. the town feels calm. there's no smoke down here. it's just very cold. the sheriff here indicated yesterday that they had a sense that the fire might leave lake county alone. >> we're not getting much more spread. we're getting good feedback from cal fire on whether that fire will pose a threat or not. right now it looks like it's not. >> there was a concern that this was going to move into lake county. so they got aggressive. and it looks like their efforts paid off. this threat wasn't the only thing residents have had to deal with. they have not had power. many of them have not had it

since saturday. school has been canceled. it's very cold. the sheriff declared a state of emergency here. they're hoping that pg&e will give them the all clear from this wind event sometime this morning. reporting live in middletown, amy hollyfield, abc7 news. pg&e says because of good weather conditions it will not cut the power to customers in alameda, contra costa, santa cla clara, san mateo counties. thousands are still in the dark after the public safety power shutoff. i want to get to their website so you can see the area still impacted. much of the north bay. most of the outages are specifically in sonoma, napa and solano counties. about 5,000 customers in marin county are without power right now. pg&e restored power to all other bay area counties except for contra costa county, which is at

97% restoration. pg&e says as of last night inspector found 55 instances of damage to equipment statewide. the company does not expect another wind event to cause a shutdown in the next week. >> thank you. even though pg&e canceled planned outages, parts of marin county are still in the dark. >> for some people it's day five without electricity. lauren martinez is live in mill valley with an update right now. >> it is good news for residents in alameda, clara and san mateo counties, but here in mill valley in marin county some areas are still in the dark. we were in novato yesterday where a hardware store was still in the dark. customers were stocking up on

batteries and lights. in other parts of novato power was restored around 4:15 yesterday afternoon. in mill valley one womanspe sh francisco on monday to get good cell service. >> it's kind of stopped our daily terms of just showering, schools are closed. a lot is going on. you feel like you're in a holding pattern. >> we're in downtown mill valley right now where some areas appear to be getting their lights back on. but just up the street behind me is mill valley public library. they're still in the dark and the surrounding neighborhood. reporting live in mill valley, lauren martinez, abc7 news. >> thank you. some schools are still closed because of the power outages and fires. >> yeah. the list is scrolling at the bottom of the screen and it's on our app and at abc7news.com. still to come, the people returning home at their own risk, how they'rehe fliy're bac

and a live look outside. check this out. our tam cam has been shaking this morning from the wins. mike is tracking all the heavy wind gusts. >> checking out healdsburg hills. that's where our reporting station is at 2,480. while the winds are impressive and theytious up to 43 miles per hour, the reason why we're in the red flag warning is the dew point has gotten colder. it was minus 6, now it's minus 8. that means the temperature would have to drop down to 8 degrees below zero for the air to become saturated. that's how dry it is. we hardly if ever see dew points that low in the middle of winter. that's got to be a record. i'll have to check on that. look how quickly those winds subside as we head throughout the day. we're back below 20 miles per hour in some of the lower elevations around the kincade fire. just single digits after that. we'll talk about san jose

how yand we are well past tvwethe honeymoon phase.tter. oooh lufa. ocupado tom. at&t, what's this i hear about you advertising a 100% fiber network? only like a fraction of my customers can get that. that's it?!? you have such a glass half-empty attitude. the glass is more than half-empty! you need to relax tom. oww! tom, you need a little tom time. a little tt. stop living with at&t. xfinity delivers gig speeds to more homes than anyone.

welcome back. new video from the chp shows how smoky conditions are in sonoma county. this is a chp helicopter flying over highway 101 yesterday. the smoke is causing low visibility and turning the skyg today is another spare the air day. the bay area air quality management district says the smoke from the kincade fire is leaving enough pollution in the air to make it unhealthy. this is the third straight spare the air day and the sixth in the past seven days. evacuation orders in parts of sonoma county have been downgraded to evacuation warnings. last night some people went home in the western part of the country. the sheriff's office says people who are going home are doing so at their own risk because the kincade fire is still a threat. people who have been able to walk into their house and sleep in their own beds are relieved. >> it is open. i was evacuated for a couple days. then they lifted it. >> it was hard.

a lot of anxiety. unknowns. we're happy to be home with our fire. family. i know you have been tracking those winds. where do we stand now? are we all right? do we need to wait longer? >> we're all right as far as the winds causing more damage like falling trees or limbs. we're still fast enough that the fire conditions are critical. that will continue through 4:00. that hasn't changed. but the wind advisory, we went to sleep knowing about it, it's expired. let's look and show you and compare what happened to last weekend to what happened now. we talked about this would not be a repeat. 93 miles per hour in healdsburg. mount diablo, 61, 51.

look at that. 41 at half moon bay one of the fastest wind gusts this morning. those are strong by any standard except compared to the weekend. let's show you what's going on now down in southern california. they could have the most extreme sant0 miles per hour. this windstorm will get stronger as it heads towards them. here's a beautiful look from sutro tower. we have air quality and fire danger issues for one last day. it will be calmer but still dry through the extended. those dry calm nights could leez to freezing temperatures where people still don't have power. 68 to 69. 70 in oakland, vallejo, concord, and livermore. morgan hill, 74 degrees. frost advisory, for those of us who have power, pets and plants is our biggest thing. pipes maybe. for those that have been evacuated or don't have power,

downtown san rafael, stopping at all stations in between. power outages and closed rail crossings mean the sonoma county airport and santa rosa north stations will remain thankyou. new video shows how close the kincade fire burned near a house in windsor. the sonoma county sheriff's office posted this video on twitter yesterday showing a charred hillside on vine crest circle. it appears one home was spared, but that's not the case for dozens of other buildings. the kincade fire burned at least 86 homes. the salvation army is helping to feed fire evac he wou evacuees. volunteers are feeding people in napa, san rafael and petaluma. the salvation army served more than 5,000 meals since the fires

the fastest winds are over, we're gusting 30, 40 miles per hour. that's why we're going to continue to have that high fire danger. the lower elevations, 23 in fairfield. still 40 at half moon bay. the winds hae been gusting between 30 and 40 for the two or three hours. what a noisy morning in half moon bay. here's jobina with a look at the commute. >> a sigalert that we'll get to in a moment. starting with mass transit. the ferries are on modified service as well as the golden gate transit buses on a modified schedule because of the kincade fire and related mandatory evacuations. hopping over to that sigalert in redwood city, a rollover blocking the right lane northbound 101 at woodside. a downbout5 miles per hour as you get closer to the crash. expect delays there.

assigned to areas shift over shift. i think firefighters are ready to turn the corner after this wind event and really put some closure and some stability back into the community. >> they do believe after this wind event they will get a handle on this fire and increase that containment with full containment expected for november 7th. that is the day before the anniversary of the camp fire. liz kreutz, abc7 news. right behind you, it looks like the most popular place to b be at base camp. tell us what's happening there. >> take a look at this. this is amazing. we have to give a shout-out to peete's coffee.e b all morning. many of the firefighters just waking up, starting their shift. i know this means so much to these firefighters. there's 5,000 of them here from
