could get a little bit more of a breeze at the coast, but as we cool down it's going to be due to a wind shift, and unfortunately that wind is coming from the wrong direction. it's an offshore wind as we get into monday night. so we've got a prolonged period of excessive heat, high fire danger coming our way starting today. you notice the absence of fog. we widen the view, and there just isn't anything out there. we'll be looking at this ridge of high pressure dominating our weather. all of california and much of the west coast through today and tomorrow, and then by monday an area of low pressure which usually is associated with cooler air, and it is. we'll dive over the high, and as it sets up to the east of us that's going to bring us the offshore flow, the windy conditions we all know so well come september and october that is going to further dry out the atmosphere. so fire danger is high and will be critical as we get into monday night, into tuesday and

early wednesday morning for the hills of the north bay and east bay, relative humidity will plummet and we're looking at those northeast winds, up to 25 miles an hour. right now 60 in oakland, 63 in hayward, so that's pretty good, isn't it? how about that 48 in half moon bay? here's a live creek. air quality moderate right now. and looking at mt. tam where you can see the haze there and the clear conditions, somewhat clear. 53 santa rosa, 55 in novato. good morning to you fairfield with 62 in concord, livermore in the low 60s. oo look at our 24-hour pechlture change and we're anywhere from 3 to 4 degrees warmer. that 9 degree drop up in novato and half moon bay. going to 88 today.

dangerous heat wave this weekend, record temperature, spare the air alert and gusty winds with high fire danger arriving next week. here's another look at the heat wave, the dangerous levels of heat anywhere from 110 degrees to the low 100s where it is red and the heat advisory right along the coast. so current p.m. levels here 2.5, anywhere from moderate throughout most of the bay. we were a little bit better up to the north in santa rosa, but this will be fluctuating. so we're looking at the entire west coast in successive record breaking. so it's going to be a tough go as we get into your sunday and monday. overnight lows will drop off a little bit, but with that heat building they're going to be warmer each and every night. look at the fog coming back into the play just at the coast early tomorrow sending just a little weak relief. you're going to have to be right along the coast to feel that. as we get into your sunday 110

concord, about 113 by the delta. 102 in napa, and as we look at your tuesday temperatures coming down, but of course with those gusty offshore winds. 93 today in fremont, 97 in napa, near 80 downtown. overnight those oranges indicate the warm overnight readings. the accuweather seven day forecast, the heat wave begins with 110 inland tomorrow, upper 70s around the coast, and still the risk of heat related illnesses on monday, windy with high fire danger on tuesday. the winds will begin to ease on wednesday, and then we can get back into some better cooling later on in the week. so we just have to hang in there and be very careful the next few days. the new movie "mulan" now streaming on disney plus. we're going to hear from the

start at 6:15 tonight. here's chris alvarez with the highlights in this morning's sports. >> good morning. the a's playing their first game in nearly a week because of coronavirus postponements. hosting the san diego padres team has been one of the hottest teams in the majors, but so are the a's before that forced week off. san diego scored four runs in the fourth with two outs off jesus loswrardo. and set as a two run double. not a lot wept right for the ark's but here's matt chapman making another gold glove power play diving stop throw across. that ends the inning. his a's debut did not go well. first batter he faces, and there it goes. 14th of the season. that tie for mike trout. 5-0 padres and the next batter man ae machado makes it

back-to-back. padres beat the a's 7-0. first of four, giants, d-backs from oracle park. bottom seven, giants down 6-4. branden belts, belts won. deep part of the yard and no getting oracle here one bounce and into the cove. his sixth of the season. bottom eight, giants still down one. big situation here. bases loaded, nobody out. alex dickerson, shallow fly ball to right and steven dugger on third. fakes going home, but for some reason he takes off from second and he's hung out to dry. he's out. no excuse for that mental error and he knows it. giants fail to score in the frame. nba playoffs lebron and the lakers. first half lebron putting westbrook on a poster and that reaction is just everything. but james hardin here, 25 in the first half and the signature

cross over three. in the final seconds houston led by 8. westbrook dials from distance. he had 4, though. the rockets win. game two sunday night right here on abc 7. yoenis and the bucks trying to avoid a 3-0 series deficit against jimmy butler and the heat. early on yoenis rolls the ankle. he stayed in the game but that did clearly affect him. he did his best, though. he's a one man fast break, the grimace on that landing. he finished with 21. miami finished the game on a 40-15 run. jimmy butler had 30. no nba team has ever come back from a 3-0 series deficit, that is what milwaukee faces now. that is your look at sports. send it back to you. all right, lisa, the big story of the weekend is really going to be the heat. >> yeah, we kind of knew getting into september this is when we get the cruwarm air, the lack of

marine layer and offshore winds. all these elements coming together today, tomorrow, the holiday and into next week. here's live doppler 7. we don't see much of anything. it's all due to high pressure compressing the atmosphere and really eliminate the low clouds and fog. also bringing a stagnant air mass, and once we get a little relief from slightly cooler air from an area of low pressure it's going to dive over the ridge and the squeeze play in between the two creating those offshore winds, and that's going to add to the fire danger with low relative humidity, gusty winds anywhere from 25 to 45 miles an hour. now, this is monday night into tuesday and wednesday morning. we have a fire weather watch for high fire danger here, and that's after we have the excessive heat today, tomorrow and monday. here's a look at the golden gate bridge. a little hazy out there. 59 in san francisco, 60 in oakland, 56 mountain view, 62 good morning to you san jose and gilroy. half moon bay dropped another 2

degrees at 46 degrees. so that feels pretty chilly out there. we were in the 40s in novato, now up to 54, 53 in santa rosa. light winds out there. 60 by the delta. so this morning temperatures dropping. 9 degrees at the coast, but in our east bay, south bay and in our inland east bay already warmer due to that very light wind. and if we have any wind at all it's coming out of the north in the upper elevations. here is the smoggy looking south bay. dangerous heat wave this weekend, looking for record temperatures, spare the air today. gusty winds and high fire danger coming into play late monday, tuesday and wednesday. so we're talking inland valleys, upper 90s to maybe 110 today, maybe warmer than that tomorrow. and right along the dos, the bay shore that's the heat advisy. records certainly in jeopardy and the air quality once again just moderate. we need something really to blow that smoke out of here, a storm

that's not happening. instead we're having the opposite effect with the very light winds. and it's not just the pay area. it's southern california. it's vegas. it's into phoenix, so that's why we certainly have to conserve power. as we look into saturday and sunday we've got the sea preez, very light at the coast, and then a little bit of fog comes back here by sunday into monday. it's not going to mean really much except if you can get to the coast it'll be some relief there. otherwise talking about the heat building into your sunday, 113 by the delta. these could be all-time records as those pinks get a little bit closer to the east bay and that high pressure ridge strengthens. still then 70s downtown. monday could be a better sea breeze here, but you can see no relief in our inland valleys. as we get into tuesday that's when we sort of cool, but remember we've got the fire danger and winds headed our way. 84 today in oakland, 80 in richmond, 72 half moon bay.

102 in morgan hill. 104 antioch, 103 fairfield, livermore 104. so upper elevations 80s, otherwise 70s in our inland east bay. cooling to the 50s downtown. the accuweather seven day forecast, with extreme heat continuing tomorrow into labor day and winds, high fire danger and still windy into wednesday. and by the end of the week we should be able to hopefully enjoy some better weather. liz? >> all right, lisa, thank you. an off-duty peninsula police officer is being called a hero after saving the lives of two teens involved in a car crash. officers say the teens should have never been behind the wheel of a stolen luxury car. abc anchor larry beil has the details. >> it all unfolded within 60 seconds of my arrival. >> reporter: a split
