good evening. >> i'm ama daetz. >> and i'm dan ashley. thanks for joining us. as the war in israel continues, tensions running very high as protests unfold across the country including right here in the bay area. >> israel has warned more than a million palestinians to evacuate within 24 hours. that deadline expires tonight. the world health organization is now begging israel to reverse the evacuation order. uh- today has been declared both the day of rage and a day of action around the world. security is tight here in the bay area, although there haven't been any credible threats. >> several schools in the bay area adjusted their teaching plans because of concerns about the potential for violence during demonstrations. south peninsula to hebrew day school in sunnyvale closed for the day and according to the jewish news of northern california, schools in foster city and palo alto also shut down out of an abundance of caution and stanford law school held all of its classes on zoom. in response to some students fears about

safety. >> and within the past few hours, protesters gathered at the federal building in san francisco. they are supporting the palestinians affected by israeli airstrikes following last weekend's hamas attacks. many of the demonstrators call themselves anti zionist jews. they believe it is time for a cease fire to allow humanitarian aid into gaza. and there were other rallies held earlier today on both sides of the conflict. >> abc seven news reporter tara campbell was on the ground at some of them and is in the newsroom with the story. tara >> yeah, dan and alma emotions were running high out there today with protests outside san francisco city hall and the israeli consulate with people on both sides of this conflict desperately pleading for peace. >> bring them home. bring them home. >> a call from protesters outside san francisco city hall. more than a dozen bay area jewish community groups gathering demands for the safe release of roughly 150 people taken hostage by hamas.

>> we need to bring them home safe if the negotiations has to start, someone has to do something to bring them home near life. >> choma is one of the organizers of friday's protest. >> some of the families don't even know whether their loved ones are hostages or killed because they just have no word. it's so hard to be away from home in these terrible days. >> we feel helpless. we want to hug our friends and families. and it's just physically impossible. >> i didn't think there was anything more important than to be here today to stand with the hostages from this absolutely barbaric act of terrorism in southern israel. our hearts are just breaking and police presence strong outside city hall with mounting concern over possible retaliation. >> we are encouraging people to be cautious and add security measures, but we cannot cower in fear. we need more voices from our community and our allies. today, more than ever, there are people who didn't come purely out of fear, and they would have

come otherwise. >> people with kids, people, they just didn't come. >> the depravity is unimaginable. there was no choice. i had to come to show my support to bring the hostage back. >> brave, free palestine. >> meanwhile, outside the israeli consulate, a small group gathering in support of the people of palestine. >> they are not having a humanity for from israel. israel is getting advantage today. they punishment for 75 years and now it's time to stand up and say it's enough. it's not the killing of children. >> there had to be peace over there. there had to be resolution that they had to do over there. but we cannot support the continuing of the killing of the people. >> and as we said, tensions running deep on both sides. tara what comes next for these groups ? >> yeah, dan, well, i spoke with organizers at both protests today and they said there are plans in the works and we can expect more to come. they're staying pretty quiet on the details right now, saying they're taking it day by day.

but of course, we'll keep you all filled in as we learn more. dan and omar. >> all right. tara campbell reporting. tara, thank you. >> the head of one silicon valley company is in israel now trying to help her employees based there. abc seven news south bay reporter zach fuentes spoke with her and has more on the call to action she has for other business owners. >> it's been nearly one week since the start of the israel-hamas war, one that has had a direct impact on many people and businesses right here in the bay area. >> casualties on all sides are horrific. >> mine cohen is the founder and ceo of hello heart, a health technology company with operations in menlo park and israel. cohen was at a tech conference when she first heard the tragic news coming out of israel, and immediately her concern was for her employees based in tel aviv. those employees experiencing horrifying situations. >> she was locked in a shelter for 30 hours with her two kids and she was trying to keep them quiet because she didn't want to draw attention that hello, heart talent acquisition manager and her children eventually got out

alive, but many of their neighbors did not. her neighbors, her family and other homes started to get slaughtered . there's no better word like house by house. >> cohen is in israel now with her employees helping to set up a logistics center to provide support to her workers and others. while cohen was able to get from the us to israel, many us citizens have been trying to come back to the states. the state department has worked to facilitate some of those evacuations. friday, congressman mike thompson confirmed some of his napa and sonoma county constituents were evacuated. we worked with them and we worked with the state department and they were they were out today. >> last i heard, they were arresting comfortably and safely in italy and getting ready to make their trip back. >> congresswoman anna, as she was also had constituents trying to return. all of this happening while the republicans house speaker races impacting how lawmakers can respond. the house of representatives has essentially been abandoned. >> its paralyzed. it's not open

for business and i think it's a disgrace. >> while work continues at the federal level, cohen hopes that other business leaders will prioritize the well-being of employees impacted by the horrors of the war. >> we have a role as business leaders, and we need to step up. we need to take action, and we need to just acknowledge what happened. >> zach fuentes, abc seven news. >> and this is an ongoing situation, as you know. we will continue to keep you updated on what's happening in israel and here at home. we'll bring you the latest local connections on tv and online. our website is abc7 news.com. you can download the abc7 bay area app on your phone to get breaking news alerts and live stream updates. >> and as we move on new developments. san jose police have arrested the mother daughter owners of a daycare where two toddlers drowned earlier this month. the co-owners of the happy happy home daycare are facing felony child endangerment charges. 116 month old girl and 118 month old girl drowned in a backyard pool at a home daycare facility. a

two year old boy who was also found of the pool did survive. the owners turned themselves in this morning. they're due in court in december, investing. gators say the children were left unattended in an outdoor play area. they then walked through a pool gate that had been propped open. employees have reached a tentative agreement with kaiser permanente following last week's three day strike. >> the announcement was made early this morning. abc's seven news reporter anser hassan has the details. >> after seven months of negotiations and a three day strike, a tentative agreement has been reached between kaiser permanente and its employees. people under this tentative agreement can rightfully expect to make real economic progress in real terms, which is really important right now. the agreement was announced early friday morning. it includes higher wages with a 21% pay increase over four years, minimum wage was set at $25 an hour in california and commitments to invest in job training. kaiser executives say the tentative agreement also resolves concerns over staffing

shortages. >> we believe that that this new contract will actually help us continue to have some of the best employees in health care. and with those employees, we'll be able to deliver to deliver on our mission of providing high quality, affordable and accessible health care to our members. >> also at the bargaining table was acting us secretary of labor julie su, whose efforts were praised by both sides for the first time in decades and decades, we have a national administration where this was a priority to help do this. acting secretary su says the deal was hard fought and historic. >> first, this agreement demonstrates what is possible when workers have a voice and a seat at the table. su and collective bargaining works political science professor robert ovitz says the threat of a second strike may have put pressure on kaiser to make a deal. >> so i think there were several different pressure points probably applied to kaiser, an

and we'll see, though, whether or not that the members agree that this is a reason to accept the settlement. if they don't accept the settlement, there'll be another strike. >> union members will vote on whether to ratify the contract next week in oakland, anser hassan, abc seven news. and a deal has been reached that will prevent a work stoppage for employees at california state university schools. >> the csu employees union has reached a tentative three year agreement with the university system. if approved, workers will get a 5% salary increase in the first and second years of the agreement. >> happening tonight, a stretch of highway 101 is going to shut down for the entire weekend. so be warned, this affects only the northbound lanes of 101. between the whipple avenue and britton avenue exits between redwood city and san carlos. the closure will last until monday at 5 a.m. they hope to get it back open in time for the morning commute. now, the weekend closure will allow caltrans to finish replacing the cordilleras creek bridge. >> and let's take a live look at the richmond-san rafael bridge

this evening where caltrans says repairs to the tolls plaza damaged canopy and safety components will take about three weeks. that means the three far right westbound lanes at the toll plaza will remain closed to traffic through october. and this is because of a big rig crash and fire monday night. the crash killed truck driver jasbir kaira. an official gofund me for his family has raised $40,000. he leaves behind a wife and three and four year old daughters. >> coming up next, art and action. the city commission. this painting on a utility box, but it didn't last long. you're going to hear from the artist who confronted the man who damaged his work. also ahead. time is running out for prescribed burns like this one that could provide a long term benefit for parts of the bay area at risk for wildfires. >> see how a north bay nonprofit is making it possible. >> hi, i'm spencer christian. we have a few showers pushing through the bay area tonight. i'll show you when and where in just a moment in my accuweather

across a narrow band of northern california and through parts of eight other states in the bay area. the eclipse will be viewable starting at 8 a.m. with its peak at 920. saturday's solar eclipse is not a total eclipse. about 77% of the sun will be blocked, though it's only a partial eclipse, it's still not safe to stare directly into the sun, of course. the last total solar eclipse happened in august of 2017. and this one, tomorrow's called the

ring of fire. >> very dramatic. >> happening today, a prescribed burn. it's getting late in the season, so it's one of the last ones. firefighters will be able to do. in fact, abc7 news reporter cornell bernard spoke with neighbors getting help from firefighters and a local nonprofit. >> it's a little scary to see all the smoke. >> otis holt is watching part of his property burn in rural sonoma county near forestville. >> this burn is controlled supervised by firefighters. otis says it's a good thing and long overdue. >> this is the first fire, to my knowledge. that's happened here in the last century and so it's overdue for sort of a fire cleansing. what that means for you is that you'll just continue burning and segment d 11 acres of dry fuel is being burned here under a program called fire forward that's been helping hundreds of north bay residents keep their communities safe. >> fire forward is a program of audubon canyon ranch. >> we are here to connect people with the land, to put good fire

back on the ground and give training to people. >> this is what we would call later in our fire season. >> cal fire was assisting with the late season burn and they've got a small window to get it done. >> timing wise, this was our opportunity. d this was our best window between the rain that we had earlier in the week and the expected light rain that we should have coming in this season. >> firefighter says. across the bay area have conducted dozens of prescribed burns like this one last july in petaluma, helping to reduce wildfire risk. >> if you come back up and just get all the way to the line here, you get this last little strip of fuel. >> we can't always just be on the reactive side of fighting fire, but also we want to do our fuels management and reduce fire loads in our communities. >> as north bay homeowners know, fire season can last all year long around here, but proactive measures like this are taking some of the stress out of living

here. >> we're we're all hoping that there's enough of this being done that the wildfires are not going to be quite so powerful in sonoma county. >> cornell bernard, abc7 news. >> it was nice that we didn't have too bad of a fire season this year. >> yeah, we feel like we've dodged a bullet a little bit. spencer christian's here, of course is not over spencer, but there are a lot of encouraging signs. >> oh, very encouraging signs. dan because we've had little periods of light rainfall here and there to keep the fuels or the vegetation moist. and we've had some heat spikes, but no severe heat wave. so we're in pretty good shape right now. let's hope it stays that way. here's a look at what's happening with live doppler seven. the looping image showing a weak cold front passing through the mainly the north bay right now, producing some light scattered showers. a lot of this green that's showing up here on our screen is not actually rainfall hitting the ground, but we are going to have some showers up in that neighborhood. and i'll show you a closer look at that a little bit later.

right now, we're looking at our surface wind speeds, which are fairly calm. we've got wind speeds up to about 15mph. but not much stronger than that. so when we go to the 24 hour temperature change and it is quite a bit cooler in most locations right now than at this time last night. four degrees cooler here in san francisco, 11 degrees cooler in santa rosa. you can see eight degrees cooler in napa, ten degrees cooler in concord. so it's been quite a cooldown as the clouds get lower and thicker and darker. here's the view from the east bay hills camera. looking at the western sky at the pre sunset sky, temperature readings right now, 57 degrees in san francisco, oakland, 62, mountain view, 66. we have 71 at san jose, 69 at palo alto and 59 at half moon bay. nice view from emeryville looking back toward san francisco and you can see that the sky is quite cloudy just about everywhere. but we have some little breaks of brightness breaking through the clouds in some spots. 62 degrees in santa rosa right now novato 68, 67 in napa, 74 in fairfield. that's our warm spot. and we have upper 60s in concord and livermore.

and the view from our rooftop camera looking toward the bay bridge and this is a view of our forecast headlines. we have a chance of some north bay showers tonight and early tomorrow morning. clouds will linger into early sunday and it'll be sunnier and warmer beginning sunday afternoon. here's our forecast animation starting at 7:00 this evening. again, subtle patches of light rain or showers will push mainly through the north bay during the nighttime hours. after midnight, we'll see the chance of showers diminishing, but clouds will still be with us into the . and i stop the animation at 930 because we want to take a look at what conditions might be like for viewing the solar eclipse tomorrow morning. the partial eclipse begins at 8:05 a.m, maximum eclipse will occur around 9:20 a.m. and then a partial eclipse ends around 10:42 a.m. and during that time period, we're likely to have mostly cloudy skies across the region, as you can see, from 8 a.m. to about 11 a.m. it looks like the south bay and the santa clara valley may have the best chance of getting a pretty good view of the eclipse when we go to rainfall totals from the

light rain tonight. only a couple of hundredths of an inch likely, again, mainly in the north bay overnight. low temperatures will be in the mid 50s highs tomorrow mid 60s at the coast, low to mid 70s around the bay shoreline and mainly mid to upper 70 in our inland communities. here's the accuweather 70 forecast. it'll be sunnier and warmer on sunday with inland highs in the mid 80s, but on monday it cools down a few degrees as a few more clouds move through the sky and there's a late night chance of some light north bay showers on muddy. it's not looking like very much though. and then tuesday begins the next warm up that continues through the end of the week. sunny skies tuesday through friday, inland highs in the upper 80s, middle of next week. up to about 80 around the bay shoreline, 70 on the coast. so beach weather in mid-october. we'll enjoy some warmth. >> yeah, thanks, spencer. >> okay. >> san francisco artist says his painting on a utility box was defaced and he believes it was an attack against the queer community. the artwork was at the corner of 22nd and valencia streets in the mission district. abc7 news reporter suzanne fawn has a look at what the artist

wants to do next. >> this was the mural artist jay manuel carmona painted last month on a utility box in the mission district. carmona says he was inspired by his good friend juanita moore, a drag queen and activist. but within 48 hours of finishing the project, commissioned by the city, someone painted over it. >> i felt horrible. i felt violated. i felt like disrespected and humiliated. >> carmona power washed the box at 22nd and valencia removing the brown paint over his mural. but then this happened. it is my neighborhood to a confrontation between carmona and this man who lives nearby. go paint it somewhere else. >> please know i have a permit here. >> carmona says the man then took out a scraper and more brown paint. >> so please do not destroy this art. yes, you are taking it off. yes, you are. carmona responded, painting these pink words. >> i was erased by homophobia. >> as an artist, nobody should see their work defaced like that. also so as a queer latino,

proud citizen, i don't believe censorship like that should still happen or be permitted. >> this is what the box looks like on this friday, we reached out to the project partners paint the void and city joy fund. with their help, nearly three dozen artists have painted 100 utility boxes in different san francisco neighborhoods. >> there's definitely a precedent for vandalism and having things being tagged. but this feels much more of an attack against the queer community and in this instance, it just feels very targeted. >> car wants to turn a negative into a positive. >> i would like to paint the box again and i would like to have a conversation with this individual. the plan now we're trying to organize a response, a public response. we would like this person and everybody else to know that we are together and we are not afraid. and we are not going to permit censorship like this in san francisco. >> suzanne phan abc7 news. >> for ten days there's been no

the trading week mixed. the markets driven by investor fears about inflation and rising gas prices. dow closed at 33,670, up

39 points. the nasdaq went down 166. the s&p 500 lost 21. time is running out for taxpayers who saw an extension to file their 2022 returns. here in california , the traditional mid-april deadline was extended until october 16th because of this winter's severe storms. october 16th is monday. now, if you don't file by then, the irs can hit you with the late filing penalty. it starts at 5% of the amount due. and the longer you wait, the more you'll pay. >> republicans have a new nominee for house speaker, but the question is, will he have enough support to actually get the job? a majority of gop lawmakers voted today in support of congressman jim jordan, the lawmaker from ohio is endorsed by former president donald trump. right now, he's short of the votes he needs to clinch the gavel. more than 50 republicans voted against him in a secret ballot. the party has been unable to elect a speaker in the ten days since the historic ousting of kevin mccarthy. >> the problem has been consistently that we've allowed

emotion to get in the way of logic and in the way of the necessity to actually govern. >> congressman steve scalise yesterday said he was dropping out of the speaker's race after house republicans failed to coalesce behind him without a speaker. the house has effectively frozen as fighting rages between israel and hamas and a us government funding deadline looms. >> coming up next, a deep dive in a san francisco's challenges to drug treatment. >> so you're saying that there are 40 beds here and the health department funds only ten when they could be funding more? >> correct? we have. why don't they? it's a good question. >> you'll see what we found when we go looking for answers and ways

san francisco's mayor recently argued that it's easier to access drugs than to treatment. facing the worst drug crisis in the city's history, the mayor has said no more handouts without mandatory treatment. >> abc7 news reporter leanne melendez is here to tell us that

in reality it can really be challenging to offer treatment without the necessary staff and beds. >> yeah. where is the staff? you know, and we need more beds and they're not being filled really. and there's so very necessary we need that treatment because when it comes to the drugs that are out on the streets, fentanyl is perhaps the hardest one to get off. now, two weeks ago, the mayor said that 80 people were approached out and asked if they wanted treatment on demand, and only one person said yes. that's all right. >> that's all right. >> it's noon in the tenderloin. san francisco police do a wellness check of this couple, apparently unresponsive of a young man. finally emerges. but there's concern that his partner may need help here. give me my papers. >> police eventually leave after she refuses to request assistance from a street crisis team for years, treatment for drug users and those needing mental health care has been the

focus of conversation among city officials. >> our goal, as i said, is consistently to get people into treatment and support that they need. >> let's focus on first recovery, and they're the ones who are most at risk for fatal overdoses. >> we should be doing everything we can except that. >> where are they planning to house all these people who need treatment? and how is the city able to afford the care that they need? >> this is the harbor light withdrawal management program. there's a total of 40 beds of the 40 beds, ten are funded by the san francisco health department and five by the adult probation department. >> they're community partners. sponsor another five. that leaves 20 empty beds. so you're saying that there are 40 beds here and the health department funds only ten when they could be funding more? >> correct. we have. >> why don't they? >> it's a good question. >> the same question that supervisor catherine stefani

asked the health department during a recent hearing. >> and i'm just wondering, i know that there's 20 uncontracted withdrawal management beds at harbor light and wondering if is considered purchasing those. >> i think we're looking at multiple options, including that according to harbor light. >> if the health department were to fund those 20 extra beds, there would also be extra revenue to hire more staff to meet the demand for care. kind of like the chicken and the egg. as of today, those 20 beds are not being used and it's a citywide problem. >> not enough of the right kind of places for people and then not enough of the right kind of staff to staff those places. >> i think we should definitely fund the beds at harbor light. there's definitely a need for it. when you look at our overdose death rates, they're just getting worse on the other hand, the health department has invested in the only sub use sobering center in san francisco called soma rise. >> coincidentally, the number of

beds available there is 20 soma rise is operating by the nonprofit healthright 360 with a $7.4 million budget over two years, which means that each bed, whether occupied or not, ends up costing $506 a day harbor light points out that each bed in their withdrawal management program, operated by the salvation army, costs the city $110 a day. they work hand in hand, but they're not the same. >> the health department has a point. >> harbor light takes in people who have already made the decision to get clean, and they support them through that rough period. while soma arrives. only serves people who are using drugs the most that they walk through that door. so let's be clear. they are not here to seek treatment. >> some folks come in to seek treatment. but i will tell you, because this is such a low

barrier program, most folks that are coming here initially are just looking for a safe place to rest, to sort of stabilize from their drug use, take a break, a pause in their day, their routine. >> we were invited inside, but with the condition that we not take any video of the patients, something we would never do. instead, they provided us with some of their photos as at soma rise, a medical technician is there to make an initial health assessment. they are then fed offered a warm shower and a chance to sleep. it off while being monitored in case of a possible overdose. patients are only allowed to stay for 24 hours. at that point, they can ask for help to get into treatment. otherwise, they are back on the streets. but nothing is mandated and nothing comes with conditions. so make the argument if you did not exist, what would happen to the people who are using drugs out here? >> well, they'd they'd be in isolation in alleyways. they'd

be on the streets. they'd be on the sidewalks and they'd be in crisis from their substance use. >> the health department also makes the argument that the cost per bed is much lower than if they were to end up in the emergency room. >> we know emergency rooms are extremely expensive and makes it difficult for other people to access care. >> they say from january to june of this year, they have referred 250 patients to a withdrawal management treatment program and 90 people to offsite residential treatment centers. meanwhile harbor light allows patients to transition from the withdrawal management program to residential treatment right there on site so they can literally show up to our door, ring the bell, come into our withdrawal management program, stabilize for a couple of days, and then transition into long term care at our residential treatment program on this campus . there, we were invited to meet zach wolf, a recovering fentanyl addict who says he was once

ready to take his own life. >> i went out and stole a bunch of stuff from a store and i was going to use that to fund the money to overdose and kill myself as i'm going to sell my stuff, i get arrested because i had a warrant for missing court. and i kind of see that as divine intervention. and god was doing for me what i couldn't do for myself, which was put the drugs down. >> he's been sober for nine months. another outspoken supporter of so-called mandate treatment is tom wolf. >> i was already in jail for facing accountability for the crimes that i was committing, and then i was given an option to go to treatment as a way to get out of jail. >> what's it going to take in san francisco for this not to exist? >> that's a good question. i don't have an answer for that, only because i have done so many tours here. i've seen the data. i think i've got a big problem. >> we've got a huge problem. >> in fact, i would ask, what's it going to take for san francisco to continue opening

more of these programs? >> now keep in mind that san francisco is currently spending $650 million a year to fund these health programs, which include substance use and addiction. this has to be the most challenging moment in san francisco. >> i mean, these drugs are spending two days out there and we're spending a fortune. >> and it's still a terrible problem and there's no end in sight. great report. thank you. thank you. >> a story that's only on seven. a high school grad reject by 16 colleges got hired as a software engineer at google. it went viral. and tonight, you'll hear him answer some of your most popular questions. >> also, had walt disney's birthplace opens to the public. it's part of disney's 100th anniversary celebrations. stay with us thousands of women with metastatic breast cancer, are living in the moment and taking ibrance. ibrance with an aromatase inhibitor is for adults with hr+/her2- metastatic breast cancer

yeah. the story got international attention after we featured it here on tuesday on abc7 news. everyone wants to know how did he land a coveted position at a silicon valley giant? >> well you asked an abc seven news anchor kristen sze found out earlier today on getting answers. yeah it's a bit of a long story. >> so i was when i was working

on my startup, one of the things that we were pursuing was a case study with amazon web services or aws. and one of the people that i was working with on this case study, uh, reached out and said, hey, you know, i think you're doing some great work if you want to apply for a job at amazon, i'll refer you. and so i thought, hey, you know, that's a great opportunity. i'll go ahead and do that. and that brought me back to remembering a email i got back. i think, in 2019, which was from a google recruiter and when i told that google recruiter, hey, you know, i'm 13 right now, i can't really hold down a full time job. they said, okay, yeah, that's fine. circle back when you're older. and so i thought, hey, you know, i'm already talking to amazon. i might as well talk to and i guess, you know, i went through the interview process at google and i guess it went well because

here i am. >> yeah, i guess it did. suddenly says google first reached out to him in 2019 through his github profile. so he believes a code he wrote on there must have impressed the company he's now working at google as a software engineer and just wrapped up his first week of new employee training. >> i'll bet you when he applies for college again, stanley's going to get a different result. all right. you can watch interviews like that every weekday. on getting answers airs at 3 p.m. here on abc7 and wherever you stream well there's a chance of some wet weather this weekend. >> see

on the path to zero carbon emissions? an energy source that's available right now, that's affordable, plentiful, and environmentally friendly. there is. and it's propane. get the facts at propane.com/now. my late father-in-law lit up a room, but his vision dimmed with age. he had amd. i didn't know it then, but it can progress to ga, an advanced form of the disease. his struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warning signs of ga. like straight lines that seem wavy, blurry, or missing visual spots that make it hard to see faces like this one, or trouble with low light

that makes driving at night a real challenge. if you've been diagnosed with amd and notice vision changes, don't wait. ga is irreversible. it's important to catch it early. talk to your eye doctor about ga and learn more at gawontwait.com and on and on with tinker bell. >> and then right there, going to show a brand new world premiere of disney's animated short once upon a studio. it's base the 100th anniversary of disney and it's the broadcast premiere of encanto. you can

watch the wonderful world of disney disney 100th anniversary celebration sunday night at eight right here on abc seven. >> disney, of course, is the parent company of abc seven. >> and for the first time since its renovation in 2019, the walt disney birthplace is making its big debut in celebration of disney 100. that's where it all started. >> the home in chicago opens to the public tomorrow and today. reporter jasmine minor got a preview. >> this is where the disney magic was born. i mean, the tree in the front yard quite literally holds the dreams and goals of children who have visited here. but really, the house as a whole is a symbol of how ordinary people can do extraordinary things. >> this is the room where walt disney was born for just $800. >> his father built the house. >> they sang and played and entertained and walt filled it with magic. walt disney was an example that, you know, if you come from humble beginnings, if you work hard, if you follow your dreams, you can change the

world. >> in 1901, walt disney was born in this very room. the two story house in the hermosa neighborhood. and for the first time, the magical place is now open to the public. ray colon, the project director of the walt disney birthplace, says walt was homeschooled, which allowed his creativity to bloom. >> walt had the opportunity to be creative, to play, play to learn, he says. >> outside the house, the disney's were staples in the community, often involved in multiple businesses and the church and his parents also were provided good guidance for them. >> i mean, you see in the picture behind me, they're dressed in their sunday best going to church, he says their faith and values kept the home full of laughter. we actually found this compartment and some disney surprises to where elias would have kept all the important papers and said his family and walt up for success. the disney's were for ord did ey things. >> and i am told that the tree was indeed sprinkled by pixie

dust. well, if you'd like to take a tour here at the walt disney birthplace, you can do that. this weekend through open house, chicago, hosted by the chicago architecture tour. i'm jesse miner for abc7 news. >> that's neat. yeah, totally. >> all right, let's update the weather forecast. >> spencer christian is here with that. spencer. okay. i'm on. >> dan, we're getting some sprinkles here tonight, but no pixie dust. here's a look at our forecast animation. you can see clouds and light showers passing mainly through the north bay during the late night and even overnight hours, although the intensity and intensity, the strength of the system will weaken as it gets past midnight into the early morning hours. but the clouds will linger by tomorrow morning for quite some time. so they may obscure our view of the solar eclipse tomorrow. overnight, low temperatures will be mainly in the mid 50s highs tomorrow, mid 60s at the coast low to mid 70s around the bay shoreline and upper 70s inland. and here's the accuweather seven day forecast. you can see we're going to get a little bit sunnier and warmer weather on sunday. it's going to warm up to mid 80s inland but it will cool down again a few

degrees on monday as more clouds move through the bay area. but then a warming trend begins on tuesday that will continue through the remainder of next week with sunny days and high temperatures in the mid to upper 80s inland and in the middle of the week, up to about 80 degrees around the bay shoreline. and we're expecting highs of about 70 on the coast next week, which is pretty mild for this time of the year. >> nice. all right. thanks, spencer. okay. >> all right. niners are hot. can they keep it going? >> yes, that's a good question. i like to think i bring the pixie dust. >> you do? there's a certain magic. >> no, i'd like to think that but nobody else would agree with that. brock purdy's got his own magic going. he and the 49 ers undefeated at five and zero. they really look like the best team in the nfl as they visit the browns on sunday. so i'm just the flu. (coughing, sneezing) i'm quite harmless, really. and when people ask, “but aren't you linked to dangerous flu complications... ( coughing, sneezing.) ...like pneumonia, heart attack, and hospitalizations?” (coughing, gasping.) ...i just say, “but i'm just the flu.” (sniffs) (elevator dings)

it's him! who? i'm just the flu. fight the flu with higher-dose flu vaccines from sanofi. they're proven to provide better flu protection than standard-dose flu shots in older adults. they've even been shown to better protect against flu-related complications. don't get fluzone® high-dose quadrivalent... ...if you've had a severe allergic reaction to its components... ...including egg products, or after previous dose of flu vaccine. don't get flublok® quadrivalent... ...if you've had a severe allergic reaction to its components. tell your health care professional... ...if you've had severe muscle weakness after a flu shot. people with weakened immune systems may have a lower vaccine response. demand more from your flu shot. to get a sanofi vaccine, make sure to ask for it by name. schedule your sanofi flu shot. available at these preferred national pharmacies. we made it! bmo has arrived. hello? you said it. hello to more ways to save money, grow your wealth, grow your business. just what we needed, another big bank. not so fast. how many banks do you know that reward you for saving every month? he's got a good point. did i mention bmo has more fee-free atms than the two largest us banks combined?

uh, b-m-o? just "bee-mo", actually. quick question, will all this stuff fit in your car? ( ♪ ) should i get rid of the mug? ♪ bmo ♪ you know i got two home runs. you got two jacks. and then my grand slam. i signed a ball for you. okay. and it says papa i love you. why did you do that? because you've taught me everything about baseball. oh hunny bunny, that's so sweet.

(♪) (♪) without their quarterback, deshaun watson will miss yet another game with a shoulder injury while the niners they come in pretty much at full strength. brock purdy is playing so well it's easy to forget he had elbow surgery back in march. that's not that long ago. purdy leads the nfl in passer rating. he's thrown nine touchdown passes, zero interceptions reading defenses pre snap. he makes quick decisions. he doesn't put the ball or his receivers in harm's way. all of those performance metrics are off the charts. he's led the red and gold to a five and zero record, scoring over 30 points per game in each contest. and brock actually feels he can get better. >> yeah, we still have left stuff out there, you know, where we can be our best and still

reach our full potential. i don't know if we'll ever be able to reach that just because that's like a perfect game. and i don't know if you can play in exactly, you know, perfect game in the nfl, but that's like the standard man. and that allows us to play really good. so that's what we're always telling ourselves. and for being real. yes there is so many more mistakes and things that we can clean up and be better at. so that's like a thing that we're excited about. like we have every single week to go out and prove to be our best versions of ourselves. >> enjoy it while you can. we got the pac 12 after dark when stanford goes looking for their first conference win at colorado tonight, they're zero and three in pac 12 play the buffs may get their start two way player travis hunter back from the lacerated kidney that he suffered right there on a cheap shot in the colorado state game. deion sanders has the buffs at four and two invigorating a program that was really down and out among those impressed cardinal coach troy taylor, who knows all the many challenges of the transfer portal and nil. >> what coach sanders is doing is trying to adjust as best way possible the way the climate is

what the advantages are and the disadvantages is everybody's got different challenges depending on where you're at, but i got to say, he's done a really good job. i mean, they have improved. they play hard. it's pretty clear that they're a better team than they've been in the past. and i think they'll continue to get better. there's different ways of doing that, different philosophies to doing that. but that's what he's attempting to do. >> night game in boulder should be interesting. lpga star lexi thompson teeing it up with the men this week at the shriners children's open in las vegas. thompson was looking to become the first woman in 78 years to make a 36 hole cut in a men's event. remember back to babe didrikson zaharias and maybe only spencer does here. but anyway, so she was with one shot of the cut line with seven holes to play, but two incoming bogeys derailed what would have been an historic round finished at even par. so lexi missed the cut by three strokes. she did shoot a two under score today. so close. so close. all right. there was a viral video moment on sunday

when dolphins receiver tyreek hill scored a touchdown, then tried to give the ball to his mother, only to be intercepted by a random fan there who was so happy for five seconds. and then it's like, that's my mom, right there. anyway, once he realized what was happening, the guy ended up giving the ball to hill's mother. tyreek then went the extra yard this week, surprised the fan >> what am i doing here? remember juju? >> you got him? oh, man. nah, they're coolest dude ever, man. oh my god, dude, you got to be kidding me. i didn't know your mom was behind us today, and if i would have known, i would have stepped aside. >> he wasn't trying to steal the ball from my mom. he just wanted. he just wanted to hug it and make sure it wasn't nothing. >> crazy haters out there. i was giving the ball to his mom. i didn't know she was there. >> well, that's the story now. but no, i mean, it's great. tyreek hill did not have to do that. obviously. it was cool. and he actually he had some like big security guy and he was

hiding behind him as he walked over to the guys table just to give him the big surprise. so it was very cool. preseason nba tonight, by the way, warriors at the lakers. so we'll see a little bit more of the chris paul experience and lebron in action. we expect so getting closer and closer to the nba regular season can't wait. i know. it's going to be fun. it's going to be fun. thanks, luke. >> all right. coming up tonight on abc seven at eight, it's shark tank, followed by 2020 at nine. then don't miss abc seven news at 11. remember that abc seven news is streaming 24 over seven. get the abc seven bay area app and join us whenever you want wherever you are. >> finally this friday a few thoughts about what really matters after a very difficult week, i imagine it's been the same for you. hard to take your mind off what's happening in the middle east for more than just a few minutes. the indescribably horrific hamas attack on israel civilians, israeli civilians and the unspeakable brutality there are two sides to the complex and volatile history between the israelis and the palestinians. but there can be no justification for what hamas did

to israeli babies and children and now, as israel responds, there will be much more killing and suffering on both sides. none of us can stop what's happening, but we can help in small ways support relief organizations trying to help the innocent offer help and comfort to those with loved ones in the war zone that you may know and if you wish, attend peaceful demonstrations that represent your point of view. sadly we cannot stop what is to come. but what really matters is that we can stay informed and stay informed. tested in the long held hope for ultimate peace in a very divided and troubled part of the world. i always love to hear from you. let me know what you think. follow me on social media at dan ashley, abc seven. >> and that is it for this edition of abc seven news. thank you for joining us. >> i'm ama daetz and i'm dan ashley for spencer christian, larry beale. all of us here. we appreciate your time. hope you have a nice evening and that we see you again at 11
