it's a little humid out there. we're basically in the upper seconds to the lower 60s right now. so looking at the inland forecast you will notice a lot of cloud cover today. upper 60s to lower 70s for daytime highs. it will be a gray afternoon and below average when it comes to our temperatures now around the bay shoreline. you see these increase in these percentages. that just means we have a good chance later on. this morning into the early afternoon of finding that drizzle. mostly cloudy and highs in the upper 60s to near 70 degrees. and it's a similar story along the coast. pockets of drizzle throughout the day and highs barely in the low 60s. let's check in with amanda. see those drive times? >> yeah. good morning drew. our overall map reflecting a quiet, clear and calm commute across the bay area. of course, this is minus that typical slowdown along the altamont pass. but we do have a trouble spot. if i take you into hayward here. westbound 92 before the toll plaza of the san mateo bridge, there is a big rig crash. we're told it's blocking four lanes there right now, though. no delays, but we'll have to keep an eye on it. certainly. then to

bills on the governor's desk. >> i don't want to put you on the spot, because i know it's kind of like a stunt, but i do have those three bills that i can sign today with you or not. it's just up to you. i just, i happen to bring them and they're the things you want to sign some laws. does this comport with. >> it's your interview. you can really do whatever you want. really. i'm. well, there's one his signs. there's two. two are signed and uh- and three are signs. >> and this is very good. >> and a lot of people slosser. >> so one of the new laws forces online platforms to remove deepfake videos that target voters. and another requires the consent of performers to use their digital likeness. the third extends protections to performers who are deceased, involving digital recreations of them and looking ahead to day two of the conference. the theme for today is unlocking your

claimed responsibility, but an abc news source says israel was working to coordinate what's called a supply chain interdiction attack. former state department official steve ganyard explains how it may have worked. >> the israelis likely saw an opportunity, bought up thousands of pages, took them apart, inserted explosives and then put them back on the market to sell directly to hezbollah. and then using the radio frequencies that normally bring data into that pager, they simultaneously detonated all of the pagers. >> u.s. officials say they had no involvement in this attack and no warning. hezbollah stopped using cell phones earlier this year due to safety concerns. >> tomorrow, uc regents will vote on whether to approve requests for military equipment for campus police. the equipment includes drones, robots, pepper balls, projectile launchers, and sponge bullets. the requests are from several campuses, including uc berkeley, ucsf, and uc santa

stop oakland's name change, but the preliminary injunction would create an immediate effect. >> we've tried to reason with oakland officials to avoid this very step, to come up with alternative names that could work for all of us, and we even agreed on mediation. but unfortunately, nothing came out of that mediation. >> back in april, oakland's board of port of commissioners explained their stance. nobody owns the san francisco bay. >> the port operates and is the steward for 20 miles of land along the san francisco bay. >> the name change was approved april 11th by the port of oakland commissioners. what didn't change was a three letter code, oq, which travelers tell me they pay close attention to avoid mistakes. you're glad you didn't get confused. >> yes, yes, that would have been kind of a pity. >> in a statement, the port of oakland categorized san francisco's latest legal action as an attempt to stifle competition and travel choices by bay area residents and position sfo as the only airport

that serves the san francisco bay area. it is not an oak will continue to aggressively fight for its position on the san francisco bay. this east bay resident wishes the port of oakland would rethink the name change. >> born and raised in oakland, and i think it's a real slap in the face. >> in san francisco. luz pena abc seven news. >> and when loyal airport worker is retiring this special k-9 is named zamba. she's a seven year old german shorthaired pointer, and she's been at sfo sniffing for explosives for five years now. for her last day on the job, she was rewarded with this ball drop that zamba was adopted by her handler, jacob, and will enjoy the rest of her years living life and relaxing as a lap dog. jacob will be paired with another canine soon to get back on the job early next year. very sweet. >> take a look at the accuweather forecast. we are going to find a cloudy day today. we have pockets of

drizzle out there this morning across the city and along the coast. so in san francisco expect a cloudy day. some moisture, cool temperatures in the mid 60s. now oakland will have some morning drizzle, a little bit of afternoon sunshine, temperatures right around 70 for san jose and walnut creek. it's just a mostly cloudy day and highs right around 75 degrees. so looking at the morning forecast, sunshine is going to be very limited if any at all. over the next several hours. overcast skies pretty much all morning long. temperatures holding steady in the 60s. it's also a touch humid out there. you may notice that as well. a live look from the exploratorium camera. you can see that moisture kind of hanging in the atmosphere. it's not light rain by any means. it's more in the form of mist and drizzle. and this is the theme as we head throughout the morning hours. so expect a lot of cloud cover today for our inland forecast highs in the low and mid 70s around the bay shoreline, we have those pockets of drizzle throughout the morning. just a cloudy day with highs in the upper 60s. then along the coast, overcast skies

drizzle from time to time and highs in the low 60s. so once again we continue that trend of cooler than average temperatures. but now we have a lot of cloud cover upstairs and we have some moisture falling this morning. just be aware of that. you may find some slick roads early on before we get that sun up here in the next couple of hours. look at the three day forecast though. things get brighter and warmer after today. thursday sunshine is back in a big way and then by friday we start a warming trend and over the weekend it's about to feel like summer with some heat on the way. we'll show you that coming up in a few minutes. drew. >> thank you. bail refused for sean diddy combs, the music mogul once again waking up in jail still ahead. what he can expect in court this morning after pleading not guilty to a judge yesterday. >> and protecting legacy businesses here in san francisco. the safeguards proposed to ensure some of the city's most beloved shops stay afloat. >> the cliff house reopening delayed. why the iconic san francisco venue won't

cloud cover overhead, it's going to squeeze out some drizzle throughout the morning into the early afternoon. we have to include that chance of some more drizzle before that low spins off to the south and begin to take the cloud cover with it. so today it's an overcast day. we will find temperatures still below average in the 60s and mid 70s, with those areas of drizzle from time to time. now, overnight tonight we'll begin to see some of that cloud cover depart. but temperatures mainly holding in the 50s behind this area of low pressure by the end of the week. we're warming up back to average on friday. then we bounce above average with 90s returning in our hottest spots inland on saturday. and as fall begins on sunday, get ready for this well above average widespread 80s and 90s. here's the accuweather seven day forecast. cloudy, cool with some drizzle today. morning clouds the sun tomorrow, brighter on friday, then warming up over the weekend with hot temperatures early next week guys. >> thanks, drew. >> coming up, the seven things to know this morning. >> dozens of dogs and cats have made the trip from southern california. how bay area groups are helping
