that is really cool for their kids to get that dinosaur that went up in space and lisa, i know you're a big fan of watching bob and doug. >> love them, and you know, you're right. the gulf coast there looking much better as that tropical storm is hugging the atlantic coast, and not only is it going to affect florida, but it's going to move all the way up the mid-atlantic and affect the northeast, so it's going to hold together. we have warm water in the atlantic, but it is not a hurricane anymore. we'll get to that in just a moment, as we look at live doppler 7, there's fog up in the north bay, down the peninsula, across to the east bay. it's clear and concord and livermore and it's cloudy in san jose. so we are looking at fog that will begin to erode back into the coast like it has been each and every day. here comes the rain into miami and you can see the raggedness to this system here, usually we have that well-defined eye but there's dry air and wind sheer coming into the storm,

downgraded to a tropical storm with winds of 65 miles an hour but look at the trajectory, going to bring storm surge, heavy rain along the coast and as it moves up through the carolinas, it may make landfall around south, north carolina border and then look, it continues to move up along the east coast from perhaps new york into long island, so it's going to be quite an issue as we go into say tuesday and even tuesday night. so we'll watch for flooding and certainly the high winds and the storm surge. sutro tower camera indicates that stable air, that warmer air above and cold air at the surface, the upwelling we have going for us, mother nature bringing in the air conditioning today. 55 san francisco. 60 oakland. 55 in half moon bay. roof camera looks nice but the sea breeze coming in later on today. 52 santa rosa. 58 in napa, good morning to you, where it is sunny in concord, and livermore.

the low cloud deck reaching a little bit further this morning. here's san mateo, a nice view of the sky line. you can see the clouds there. low clouds this morning, the wide range today and the cooler pattern arriving not tomorrow but for tuesday. so looking at the highs today anywhere from the low 90s in livermore to the mid-90s out by the delta. nice afternoon in oakland, mid-70s, how about 79 palo alto. 83 in san jose so similar to yesterday, low 90s arriving in santa rosa. we get into the 60s but then these winds will kick up to near 30 miles an hour. so the accuweather seven-day forecast looking at not only the sunny afternoon and the warm weather today, but we'll take it for another day tomorrow, with 70s around the bay, low 90s inland, and the cooling trend as that trough sets up to the north, it's going to send in cooler air, expand the marine layer, bring the mist and drizzle and going to take a little while to recover and when we do, it's just to readings where we should actually be for this time of year. so it could be a lot hotter, we

know that, and it's good, because we saw the fire down into southern california, so as we like to say around here, still kind of stratus quo. >> that's sumner san francisco. thanks, lisa. how do you rebuild paradise? >> lord, pray for us. >> we're getting out of here. >> oh my god. >> i need an ambulance immediately. >> we are 100% surrounded by fire. >> a new documentary out on the deadliest wildfire in california history. hear where the director says he has a personal connection.

it is a picture that's worth a thousand words. his mother calls 7-year-old theo her hero. this morning talking with the people who first brought his life on the streets to light, fighting to solve homelessness in building a bet irbay area. good morning, everyone. we'll have that interview in a moment. first let's start with a quick look at your bay area forecast. here's meteorologist lisa argen. >> hey, liz, good morning to you. taking you above the low cloud deck, so you can see the beautiful start to the day we have here this sunday morning. look at the sun there, the deck is about a thousand feet and it's going to take until mid morning when we see this fog retreat, then you know what comes, that sea breeze. 55 in the city. it is 60 in mountain view and oakland. looking at 52 in gilroy. from our roof camera it's quiet with the gray sky with low 50s and fog up in santa rosa, with a mild visibility, upper 50s in concord, and mid-50s in livermore. so it's been a pretty nice

stretch, wouldn't you say, with the warmer afternoons, two to five degrees warmer right now and by about 10:00, we're in the 70s, a little bit of that orange coming into play an our inland valleys that, means the warmth is on the way again by 2:00, but 90 in antioch, upper 80s in santa rosa. 70s around the bay. the fashion retreats for a bit but it becomes breezy at the coast, and we'll talk about a nearly similar day tomorrow, but then it's going to feel a little bit like fog for the week ahead. i'll have the details next. >> all right, lisa, thank you. as we work to build a bet irbay area, part of that is working to combat issues of homelessness and finding ways to achieve affordable housing, those are two critical issues in creating an economy that works for all of us. you likely saw this photo over the past week from the "san francisco chronicle" will 7-year-old theo, a young boy in berkeley homeless living in a tent. i spoke with the reporter and photographer about the story and what can be done to help.

here with me is "san francisco chronicle" journalist gabrielle lurry and reporter sarah lavani. thank you both for joining to us talk about your truly heartbreaking story, you just want to give theo a giant hug after reading this story. gabrielle, tell me how you find theo, who he is and his story. >> yeah, thank you for having me. i was working with sarah on a story about the rvs in berkeley and saw a kid on a scooter scoot behind me and i thought he can't be living here, can he? and i started asking a couple people who i was photographing does he live nearby? they said actually he lives in a tent and i was shocked and i said, i just said to myself that can't be. i went over and i talked to them and they were so friendly, they showed me the inside of their tent, they told me their story of how they ended up there and i asked them if i could spend time

with them and they were very open to it and so from there on out, i spent, we have spent a year kind of chronicling what their life is like and their struggles. >> sarah, a think a lot of people who read this story are seeing this question how this could be when there are so many resources to help. why is it that theo is still out on the street and how many other children in our community are living like this? >> theo and his mom have been homeless since he was born and it's a series of issues that have come up for him, for them, his mom is a domestic violence survivor and his father has been in and out of jail so they've had a tie tumultuous relationship. him and his mom have been living in tents and in hotels throughout berkeley.

homeless children are unique. they are rare but they do exist. you can drive through oakland and you see children living with their parents in rvs. gabrielle and i have done stories on homelessness before but had never seen a child living in a tent and so that's really what struck us and berkeley's homeless data show that there are no families with children who are unsheltered but theo still exists, so it really kind of lends this unique look to his vulnerability as well. he's invisible even though people know he exists. >> interesting. absolutely, and gabrielle, your photos are stunning. walk us through some of these intimate moments thaw captured in theo's life. >> so i really wanted to get him just as a kid and not just as

someone who is homeless, so i kind of went between him and his tent and his reality being homeless and what it's like as a child to be homeless, but also him playing, so him flying a kite with his mom or you know, on her back when he's tired or playing in his hammock, because for him, he kind of creates these worlds for himself and he doesn't just kind of get down on being homeless. he actually doesn't talk about it very much and so like the picture of him in the hammock, he loves his hammock. he likes to sit there and read or listen to music and you know, there was a young girl who asked him, is that where you live over there and he was like yeah, that's where i live and she says, do you like it, and he's like no, but i love my hammock.

so he creates a world for himself. he goes crayfishing in the creek nearby and roasts marshmallows and sort of like he uses his imagination to just be a kid, and so i was hoping to show that through the images. >> yes, that definitely came through and i think also what came through is he does seem very loved and so sarah, i ask how is theo doing right now especially with the new school year about to start in distance learning being a huge concern. >> i think that's a huge question, distance learning, the idea of having just reliable internet is not something that they have, right, like maybe they can get internet from a nearby cafe but when they're living on the streets, there's no internet connection. when they were in hotels that was possible, but school also gave him such a structure, you know, he went every single day. he had his friends, he was

engaged, and so i think that's a really, you know, it's just a really hard thing to kind of swallow right now, distance learning, what to do, what the next year is going to look like, which i think a lot of parents are probably facing as well but it's just at a heightened level for him, being out on the street. >> absolutely. gabrielle, my final question is what has the reaction been since you published this on wednesday? i've seen it shared so many times and how can people help? >> yes, so i think people really loved the piece. it's really resonated. i think no one wants to see a kid outside and he's so endearing and he truly is. he's a very special imaginative boy who we've really grown to love and so i think the best way people can help is either through the go fund me link or you know, if they have some connection to housing or an extra space i think that would probably be the best road for them because we want them to be sheltered. so that's our ultimate goal. >> absolutely and i hope you guys i think you might continue to follow his story over the

next coming years and we hope to see follow-ups from both of you, thank you both so much for coming on and talking to us about this. i hope everyone checks out your story on "the chronicle" website and we'll post a link to it on abc7news.com. thanks, guys. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> really worth checking that out. still ahead on "abc 7 mornings," keeping the cheese churning during the coronavirus crisis. >> over my lifetime, there's been a lot of ups and downs, and i don't know what the next corner is going to bring us, probably bring us another cheese. >> a fascinating story this morning, what one of the bay area's oldest dairy producers is doing a little bit differently during the pandemic. plus new, disneyland's social distancing changes. we just got word on how your favorite rides are getting a bit of a makeover to meet safety protocols at the park. and here is a live look from our roof camera this morning, looking out over the embarcadero. one person or two and a few of you on a morning stroll at

waking up to mist and drizzle, slow clearing, numbers only making it into the 70s, and then as we begin our warmup by the end of the week, we're still going to have a wessingy trough to the north of us, hang out and that's going to allow us not to get too warm around here the way it's been for most of the summer. our exploratorium camera with the gray sky, it was in the 60s yesterday but boy, the wind certainly played a factor, it has been kind of chilly, wouldn't you say, in san francisco, and a little bit gray for much of july and august, following the same trend. as we look at live doppler 7 we have some fog all along the coast and it's making its way a little bit locally inland, but by about 10:00, 11:00 it retreats. here it our east bay hills camera and the fog is with us this morning, but looking at nice afternoon, already looking at numbers ranging from the low 50s to about 60 over in oakland and mountain view, and by the afternoon, it's been pretty nice if you're away from the coast but boy, it's been getting breezy in the afternoons.

sfo in the 70s yesterday, a lot like that again today, but as we get into next week, this low deck of clouds is going to grow taller and in fact, it could get expanded enough that it will just mix out all together say middle of the week. 512 in petaluma. 57 by the delta. upper 50s concord and livermore and the cool whipped looking skies. cooler pattern for the week ahead and looking at what you can expect as we get into that cooldown on tuesday, so today low to mid-90s. we're as much as ten degrees cooler as we get into tuesday so monday is going to be a nice day and look at the fog as it extends locally across the bay. the coolest day of the week will be wednesday, where we look at numbers in the 60s and 70s, have to get out towards the delta to reach 80 but a rebound comes into play on thursday, numbers around average, and in the south bay today, a lot like yesterday, 83 san jose, 93 in morgan hill,

80 in milpitas. numbers from the low 70s millbrae to the upper 70s redwood city, palo alto and mountain view and in the city you have a mixture of clouds and sun and then those west winds up to about 30 miles an hour for low 60s today. 87 novato, beautiful day there, calistoga warming up to 94, and mid-70s san leandro. union city you'll be about 78 today and inland east bay we have 89 in walnut creek, with 94 in pittsburg. the summer spread begins the work week, the cooling trend for tuesday. wednesday is the coolest day. a little bit warmer on thursday, but we're going to keep it in check, right on through the end of the week. liz? >> lisa, thank you. as we've seen for months the covid-19 pandemic has been devastating for restaurants, and also hurting food suppliers, but one of the bay area's oldest dairy producers in the bay area is managing to survive. this morning its new purpose for its cheese-making business. >> reporter: the bay area has

changed a lot over the past 100 years, but not around point reyes. the area looks similar to when bob's grandfather opened a dairy farm in petaluma around 1900 >> had about ten cows and raised six kids. >> bob's father, waldo, started his own dairy farm in point reyes in 1938. bob followed in the family business opening his own dairy farm on a hill overlooking tomales bay in 1959. >> the 62 years that i've been here we've produced four daughters and increased the herd of cows from 120 to about 450. >> reporter: four daughters, karen, diana, lynn and jill who didn't plan to work on the farm. they moved away to pursue business careers but in the mid-90s bob called his daughter back for a family meeting. >> sit around the table and say hey, if you want to keep the farm and the family, somebody has to step up. >> reporter: bob didn't want to keep selling his milk to distributors. he and his wife had a dream to create something they could call

their own. >> they needed some help to be able to make that dream a reality. >> reporter: bob's daughters joined him in the family business and started point reyes farmstead cheese company. >> the first nine years we made one product, point reyes original blue. >> reporter: they opened a creamery and began making other cheeses, a gouda aged 1 months and toma. >> toma is our everyday cheese, something you can cook with, great snacking cheese. >> there are about 17,000 tomas in this room, a robot runs day and night turning and brushing them all. about 85 employees worked the farm and made the cheese. business was booming, then covid came. >> it hit our business. about 50% of all the cheese we make goes to restaurants and it goes to hotels. all that business halted. >> we had to make tough decisions and lay off some of our employees and we were selling some milk, selling some

cows in an effort to reduce our production. pre-covid we'd run 10 to 15 events here a week. we had to shut down because we weren't allowed to have visitors here on the farm. >> the silver lining of covid is we found a real purpose also for feeding people that didn't have the money to get food. >> reporter: with began with the farmers to families food box. the federal government program buys farm products and gives them to food banks. after that, they worked with the wells fargo foundation to donate cheese to food banks that inspired them to try their own food drive. >> we told all of our cheese fans throughout if you buy a wedge of cheese from us we'll make sure we will donate the equal amount of cheese direct to a local area food bank. >> reporter: through the campaign, point reyes farmstead cheese company donated 3,000 pounds of cheese to redwood empire food bank. >> this is helpful in distributing and you know, making our food boxes a little

bit more exciting with some cheese. >> reporter: producing cheese for donation has also allowed the family to re-hire some workers. >> food is our business, food is part of our hearts, part of our family and we're happy to do this. >> hopefully we continue to serve the food banks and maybe even someday make a cheese specifically for them. >> over my lifetime, there's been a lot of ups and downs and i don't know what the next corner will bring us, probably bring us another cheese. >> abc 7 news. hi. what's on your mind?in. can you help keep these guys protected online? easy. connect to the xfi gateway. what about wireless data options for the family? you can customize and save. what about internet speeds that can keep up with my gaming? let's hook you up with the fastest internet from xfinity.
