it is now day six of the u.s. government shutdown with no end in sight. what is the end of this? let's get the answer from larry gursten. 800,000 federal employees have been laid off. some of them coming back. people can't go to alcatraz or the cliff house. otherwise, we are should going

along. >> for some people, no big deal. what's going on? what are you making a big deal about a shutdown? for others, there are serious consequences. you don't furlough 800,000 federal employees without some kind of consequence. here are some that we might not necessarily think about but are beginning to impact us in one way or another. think about, for example, what's going on in the national parks. the national parks are shut down. you can't go to a national park. a lot of people are getting their lives ruined over that. they had vacations planned and whatnot. think about the fact that you are applying for an fha loan, a small business loan, a social security package, you will get it souper or later. there is no one there to process it. think about the fact that all these government construction projects are going along, both by government pemployees and th

private sector. they are not working. you put this all together and you have a lot of stuff going on. some are impacting more than others. i am writing a book about the disengagement of american people. i can't get to u.s. government websites. you go to websites and it says, it shut down. sorry, no one here to keep it up. there are some big things happening. >> hearing for folks who are applying for loans. we all know in this market, it is time sensitive. no one is able to legitimize social security numbers. sometimes you could lose your house over it or your potential house you are going to buy. you are not going to get your paycheck. you put it all together and the consequences of all this are anything but cheap. the fact of the matter is, the shutdown is costing us, costing us, the economy, $300 million a day. so far, chris, that's $1.8 billion. tomorrow, it is $2.1 billion.

tuesday, it is $2.4 billion. before you know it, you are talking about serious money. think about the fact that you are shutting down programs and reopening them. everybody has to say okay. stop doing what you are doing. come back later. there are great costs when you are talking about 800,000 employees forced to move out an then back in again. think about the extra time that the personnel will need when we actually return after this shutdown. there is a backlog here. we have to process all these things. think about the fact that there will be lost governor revenues from nobody working. they are applying for unemployment insurance which also costs government money. we have furloughed workers that somehow have to get on with their lives and meanwhile can't. they have mortgages to pay, bills to pay. without this, i talked about tsa person the other day, going to the airport. he is working. he has to work. he is essential.

he says, i don't know how i am going to pay my mortgage, which is due in two weeks. that's the crisis we have going on in the country. >> we heard earlier, there is some movement. we can both agree we should give back pay to the federal workers. is there an end in ith soo. >> the back pay will come. congress was unanimous on that yesterday. amazing congress agrees on anything. as far as the end in sight, no. we have a very muddled picture. the picture isn't pretty. that's because of yet another issue, chris. that's what we call the national debt ceiling. the united states owes money to other countries, private investors. why? because of our annual unbalanced budget we come up with every year. that's what we call the national debt. right now, the debt ceiling is set at $16.7 trillion. that's how much the united states is allowed to owe people, to owe countries, to owe all those folks we borrow from.

the u.s. treasury secretary, jacob lieu, says that the united states will run out of money by october 17th, unless congress raises the debt ceiling. from that day on, we well owe more than we have money to pay. the president says, congress, do something about this. please raise the debt ceiling. no conditions. just raise the debt ceiling. congressional republicans say, we will raise it but with conditions, anywhere from ending the affordable care act to privatizing social security to ending other federal programs. what we now have is this huge convergence of two issues, kris, first disagreement on what to do about the budget and the second, what to do with that. >> thank you, larry, for coming in. still ahead on "today in the bay," we'll tell you why hundreds of people took the plunge in the san francisco bay.

welcome back. it is going to be another warm day across the bay area. kind of like what we saw yesterday. places that got back into the 80s will be there. even bayside, mid-80s. inland, close to 90 degrees. we want to make sure you take it easy. right now, very comfortable. fall, crisp air in place. 44, santa rosa. 48, napa, gilroy, 43 degrees. our winds are offshore for today. that's a warming wind. that's what's going to warm us up very quickly for this afternoon. in the long-term, we are tracking a few showers. this is our next system you can see. that plume of moisture making its way up toward the fa siepac northwest. by the time we get into tuesday night into wednesday, clouds increase and the potential for a few showers across the area. here is a look at what we are

expecting. our computer model does a good job at showing it is not going to be a widespread event. this is wednesday at 6:00 in the morning. put it into motion, you will notice how a few areas do see a little bit of green. most of that will be in the east and south bay this go-around. this is again just a computer model's estimate of the track of where this system will move towards. being that it is still three or four days out, it could move a little bit to the east or the west. a lot of discrepancies with this as we head toward the next few days. this is about the second day in a row that the computer model has been honing in on activity as we head towards wednesday. we will keep you posted as we get closer to the day. beautiful, 86, san jose, 82, san francisco. 84, santa cruz. anywhere you go today across the bay, it is going to be beautiful. it is also going to be warm and bright. for tomorrow, a few more clouds move back in the picture. we start to cool off by tuesday. temperatures back in the 70s by then. about a 10-15 degree drop before
