have been onshore so far, gusting to about 23 at sfo sustained 25 miles an hour in san francisco. so lighter breeze inland at 18 miles an hour in fairfield, exploratorium cameras showing you a little bit of that fog over san francisco as we look toward salesforce tower it's comfortable mid 50s. oakland, 58 degrees. you're in the 60s from mountain view to san jose, currently 59 in palo alto and 54 in half moon bay. as we look from our oakland airport camera visibility is okay from this vantage point mid 50s novato santa rosa, 61 right now in napa. some of our milder spots in the upper 60s from fairfield to concord. livermore, you're at 63 degrees. and from our golden gate bridge camera, we are seeing a little bit of a murky view areas of fog overnight, sunny and warmer tomorrow. warm to hot weather from wednesday through friday for the entire bay area and we are looking at heightened fire danger and the possibility of near-record temperatures. there are a couple of cities that will get close to records. we'll see

if they materialize tomorrow morning. watch out. there will be fog not just near parts of the coastline, but around the bay shoreline as well as we head into the afternoon hours, we start to see some breaks in that fog layer and the sun starts to pop up. but we will still see some lingering fog near the coastline. and in the morning, you are going to be seeing the upper 40s to the low 60s in terms of temperatures, some of the cooler spots in the north bay santa rosa, 48 degrees, definitely one of those mornings where you will need that extra layer, just like this morning, tomorrow afternoon in the south bay, you're looking at temperatures in the low to upper 80s from san jose to gilroy, 83. in san jose, 80 degrees in sunnyvale on the peninsula. it's going to be a nice day. 78 in mountain view. warmer than today. 68 half moon bay. downtown san francisco, 73 degrees. a little bit of a breeze right near the coastline and in the north bay, you're looking at temperatures in the low to mid 80s from san rafael to santa rosa, 82 in vallejo, 80 in napa, heading into the east bay, 78 degrees in oakland,

getting you up to 82 in castro valley, the sun shining. it's a warm day. i mean, you couldn't ask for better october weather, 86in concord, 88 degrees in fairfield, 87 in brentwood. now on wednesday, we're going to turn up the heat. temperatures going up into the 90s as thursday, mid 90s. you will notice along the coastline, it's pretty warm as well. on friday, we hold on to that hot weather. but one thing that we are concerned about is gusty offshore winds developing small window where we see that happen between late tuesday night and wednesday. you will notice the wind directions out of the northeast, calistoga, middletown, 25 to 27 miles an hour. it's a very drying wind. so that is what's bringing us the concern about fire danger. just be vigilant, especially this time of year. accuweather 70 forecast. it's a warming trend that gets underway and continues through much of the workweek. we're talking about mid 90s inland upper 70s to low 80s along the coastline. thursday, friday the heat holds inland and then you'll notice turning cooler the second half

good. i like it. as opposed to the opposite person for sure. >> chris has been an all way of winning for so many years. >> and now to be on the same team with him, it's just a huge honor for myself. i think he's going to help us so much, especially from a leadership standpoint. >> cp being on this team is, you know, he'll take it to another level. >> you know, he's one of the best point guards to, you know, to ever do it. >> any time you get to learn from a guy like chris paul, you're lucky. you know? and so for me, i'm looking forward to the opportunity. when you talk about mastering the point guard position, he mastered that position. he's one of the most incredible playmakers we've seen in this league. >> well, training camp begins tomorrow for the warriors first preseason game is this saturday against the lakers at chase. since the 49 ers moved to levi's stadium. an economic impact report shows the forty-niners has moved to that stadium, has generated $2 million to the local community. team president al guido joined us for our 3

p.m. show getting answers and talked about what's made that possible and what's to come. >> it's amazing to sit here today, almost ten years or ten years since the day that we opened levi's stadium, and to think that we generated $2 billion of economic impact for this region, over 12,000 people, or nearly 12,000 people that it impacted directly in jobs related to working on the stadium and that would not happen without our community partners here in santa clara and san jose. san francisco and oakland. as it relates to super bowl 50 and the other events we've put on, we've hosted probably the most events of any other open air stadium since we really been here at levi's, and that's given two years of a global pandemic. and so, look, the first ten years have been phenomenal on and off the field. i know we're excited about the current team on the field right now and on the business side, we're also really getting ready to ramp up for super bowl 60 and the world cup in 2026 on top of all the revenue from sporting even on track to pay off stadium related

debt obligations decades ahead of schedule. >> well, we do have some sad news to report about a former 40 niners super bowl champion, russ francis has died. he was one of two people killed in a plane crash yesterday. francis and his friend who was vice president of the aircraft owners and pilots association crashed shortly after takeoff from an airport in lake placid, new york. it's not clear who was flying francis had a passion for aviation and recently bought lake placid airways during his retirement. he was a tight end for the 40 niners in the mid 80s and helped the team defeat the miami dolphins in the 1985 super bowl. russ francis was 70 years old and.

convict drug dealers and who's ultimately responsible for allowing them to go back on the streets. abc seven news reporter leanne melendez has more on that. >> it takes more than just police and its supporting cast to make a dent in san francisco's drug trade. the role played by judges inside the superior court is now coming under scrutiny by city hall and the district attorney. >> even though we've been advocating for repeat offenders to stay in, they're still being released. violent and repeat offenders. >> da brooke jenkins took office nearly 15 months ago and only last week was her office for the first time, i'm able to convict a drug dealer who claimed that he was a victim of human trafficking and forced to sell drugs for fear of his safety as well as others. >> and the jury was not persuaded by his story. and did find him guilty. >> 20 year old eduardo rosales silva had been arrested in may 2022 for possession to sell cocaine, fentanyl and meth, but was released by a judge. less

than a month later. he was arrested a second time for selling drugs and again was released by the court. he was finally kept in jail after the fourth arrest. he will be sentenced on october 6th. according to jenkins, so far this year, there were 511 individuals with open bench warrants who failed to appear in court after they were released by the judge. we wanted to get some context and asked if this kind of leniency is followed in other bay area counties. i mean, if somebody has no record whatsoever and they've got a stable address in the like most of the time, they may not be kept in custody, but if there's a second time, not 3 or 4. >> a second time, they're going to occupy the san mateo county jail. >> but before san francisco's da was able to convict rosales, silva, three similar drug dealing cases resulted in a hung jury. it may not come as a surprise that san francisco jurors tend to be more liberal

and sympathy stick. in a recent newspaper, editors article, someone who served on a jury explained why they decided to vote to acquit a drug dealer from honduras. quote, i believe the evidence showedhat the accused, who i'll call esteban to protect his identity was coerced into selling drugs against his will. i hope that he will now have the opportunity to rebuild his life and separate himself from the coercion and violence that have gotten him here. a few months ago, i went to the tenderloin to ask those who weren't using drugs in spanish if it was true that some drug dealers were being coerced and threatened and they chose not to answer. last may, a survey of 500 potential san francisco voters conducted by emc research found that 70% of them said sanctuary city policies should not be extend to those undocumented people selling drugs. supervisor hillary ronen i think that this is a distraction. >> i don't think that low level

drug dealers from central, it's from from honduras are the real cause of this drug crisis. >> instead, ronen blamed the makers of oxycontin for the current opioid crisis in san francisco. but shouldn't we do something about it now, though? shouldn't we do something about that now? >> 100? and that combined with poverty is what led to the crisis in the streets today. not immigrants. >> still, even the former speaker of the house had to concede that one way out of this crisis was to bring in the drug enforcement administration. the dea. nancy pelosi writing to attorney general merrick garland.eople are dying from fentanyl and violence. we hope to hear soon about a designation of operation overdrive for san francisco to combat the cartels. we've got critics who are hand-wringers and navel gazers and defenders of the status quo without even having the courage to admit that they're defending the status quo. >> we need to try new approaches. >> so we turn to sacramento to

see if the state is taking harsher action and found that lawmakers there are still taking a lukewarm approach to the fentanyl crisis. for example, three bills introduced in the california legislature did not advance. ab 367 to add sentencing enhancement for those who serious injure or kill through fentanyl poisoning. rejected ab 955 to increase penalties for dealers who sell fentanyl over social media rejected ab 1058 to increase penalties for those possessing a large amount of fentanyl. also rejected. prosecutors worry what will happen if courts aren't given the tools to convict drug dealers. in the 1980s and 90s the crack cocaine epidemic led to harsh sentences mainly against african americans. but in 2014, when california voters passed proposition 47, making simple drug possession for first time users a misdemeanor rather

than a felony, that eliminated jail sentences and made offenders eligible for drug diversion programs. they have adopted an approach that no to do that will shove us back into the 1990s. >> that is their attitude, that attitude to me is a sorely mistaken attitude that is costing human lives. >> but there's a difference here. according to the cdc, more than 150 people die every day in this country from overdoses related to fentanyl with crack cocaine in the 80s and 90s. the causes of death among those who used or sold it were homicides and aids. in the newsroom, leanne melendez, abc seven news, the care act begins today in california. >> it's a program meant to get more people with severe mental health disorders into treatment , even if the person doesn't want the assistance. ace san francisco will be one of the first seven counties in california to implement the new program. it's the only bay area county taking part at this time . the idea is to have the court

step in for people with untreated mental illness to try to get them stable housing and other services. thousands of people on the city's streets may qualify, but people don't have to be unhoused to qualify. it's been a controversial program because judges have the last say in ordering a treatment plan and bail was denied. again today for the man accused of killing tech executive bob lee. a judge heard arguments from nima. mommy's new defense team, but ultimately denied bail. momeni is accused of stabbing the cash app founder in april in san francisco. bail for momeni was previously denied when he had a different attorney . today, prosecutors said nothing had changed since then other than them getting access to mommy's cell phone, which showed text messages from his own family, calling him a, quote, lunatic and psychotic. balwani's attorney reacted to the judge's decision. >> i'm disappointed in the court's ruling. i think that there are conditions that the court could have set. i don't think that this is a guaranteed no bond situation. and we

believe that we made the right arguments. but we you know, we respect the judge's decision because that's what we have to do. >> he says his client is ready for the trial to begin and get his day in court. former president donald trump was back in a courtroom in new york today, this time in a civil fraud case brought by new york attorney general letitia james. she accuses trump and his eldest sons of lying about the net worth of their assets. abc news reporter reena roy has the latest. >> former president trump inside a new york city courthouse slamming new york attorney general letitia james whose charges brought him there. it's a disgrace. >> they're trying to damage me so that i don't do as well as i'm doing in the election. but james says this civil fraud case, more than four years in the making, is about holding the trump organization. >> the former president and his eldest sons accountable, accusing them of inflating their net worth by as much as $2.2 billion. >> no matter how powerful you are, no matter how much money you think you may have, no one is above the law.

>> she was met with cheers and applause as she entered the courthouse where opening statements began. in the first day of the trial, trump at some point slumped in his chair, arms crossed, shaking his head as he listened to prosecutors lay out their case. the state alleging the defendants were lying year after year and that they knew a high net worth was necessary to get and maintain certain financial benefits. trump's legal team firing back, saying the attorney general has no case and that trump has not committed any fraud when many properties which i've sold are worth much more than were listed in the financial statement. >> it's by double and triple what do you have to do? and we're wasting our time on this trial. his lead attorney saying they'll prove that there are many ways to value assets and that trump has made billions of dollars building one of the most successful real estate empires in the world. >> but the judge has already determined that the trump organization had committed fraud for years over inflating the value of its assets. this trial will only determine how much the

temperatures will really drop off sunday and columbus day. let's take a look at live doppler seven right now. we do have some higher clouds passing through and some patchy fog right along the coastline. that fog is around the bay as well. and as we look at the bigger picture here, do you remember those showers that came through? that's the system that brought us the showers on saturday, brought snow to mammoth. high pressure is now taking control of the weather. and as it gets closer and closer to us, we're going to see the offshore winds picking up. and we're going to notice that the temperatures really rise and you're going to feel it by the time the end of the workweek arrives and as we head towards the fleet week forecast, you can see warm and sunny on friday in the mid 80s getting up to about 79 on saturday. so the heat backs off just a little bit in the city. great visibility for the air show, though, by sunday. we are talking about some fog and cooler weather as we look at the fog from our mount tam cam. look at how gorgeous that is right now and look at the temperatures mid to upper 50s from san
