the 38 fishing vessel called the paloma which ran aground just over 24 hours ago. it has been leaking fuel. it is a 400 gallon fuel tank. not clear if it was full of fuel at the time. the next step to figuring out to remove the vessel itself. the plan is to have this done by this morning. the skipper is still missing, he's a veteran fisherman. around 3:30, he radioed another vessel to let them know he was caught in the surf. >> told the sunrise that he was on the rocks and that he was in a life jacket and getting, he was going to swim the 25 yards to shore. >> reporter: you can see the orange lifeboat also washed up on shore. possible deployed by itself. the coast guard believes that the man most likely made it to shore safely. wove spoke -- weave spoken to

others saying he may not want to be found to have to deal with the situation. we found an old booking photo, he has no outstanding warrants. friend of his tells us he's quote, good people. reporting live here in ocean beach, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> well let's hope he's okay. thanks bob. reenfornsmentes are coming -- reinforcements are coming in today as firefighters are battling wild fires burning across the state. cal fire is showing what it's dealing with. this one shows what the state looks like right now. the second one is a shocker, it's what's happening in northern california right now. nine different fires all burning north of redding. largest of them all, the eiler fire in shasta county. almost 29,000 acres burned, just a little bit smaller than the entire city of san francisco. there's no containment at this time. and firefighters are desperately working to gain a perimeter around the flames. the fire's destroyed at least

eight homes and one restaurant. hundreds of buildings are still threatened. and there are more than a thousand firefighters battling that fire alone leaving state resources depleted. the crews from across the country are on their way to help. connecticut fire crews packed up to leave this morning. they're headed to california. the 20 person crew flew out of hartford county early this morning. firefighters say they know anything could happen. >> weather conditions where we're going, supposed to be really steep terrain. so yeah, dry conditions, the heat, fire behavior. yeah, you never really know what you're walking into. until you get there. >> all of the crews on their way are trained in battling forest fires and wild fires. and other states are also sending crews our way. washington and oregon receiving help for more than a dozen major wild fires that are burning there. well, at 5:04 this morning, the family of a u.c. berkeley football player who died after

collapsing at practice plans to file a wrongful death lawsuit against the school today. the players ted agu collapsed during a conditioning run in february. he rushed to the hospital where he died. doctors discovered he had a heart condition that made it difficult for blood to reach the heart. the family's lawyers say coaches and trainers should have noticed and helped him sooner. u.c. berkeley said they did everything they could. it is 5:05, in about three hours, santa clara county leaders will outline their plan to help undocumented children crossing the u.s. bortder alone. it could include a call for host families in the south bay. kris sanchez joins us live with a look at the proposal and how the plan might work, good morning. >> reporter: hi there laura, leaders of the catholic charities of santa clara county will urge leaders to come up with a plan to take on some of those undocumented children who are in detention centers in southern california and in texas.

the charity wants to urge supervisors to move forward with a plan to help. the county executive jeff smith already had his staff researching the feasibility of housing some of the children in private homes in the same way foster children are. last month, congresswoman of san jose asked the county board to figure out a way to help. several board members seem on board with the host family model. now as far as catholic charities, this is not a new concept. for 30 years, they've had a refugee resettlement program through which it provided housing, education, and assistance to help resettle refugees from around the world. as for santa clara county's host program. here's how it could look. about 50 children could be placed in homes in the county. the host families would have to meet the same qualifications and background scheks as a foster family. the county would seek federal funds for expenses from the federal government and the county would provide legal assistance in the short term.

this is also happening in another big bay area city, oakland, city council leaders passed a resolution asking for host families to come forward to hear, to come forward there. this all, of course, as everyone waiting for the federal government to come up with some sort of plan, local governments are saying these folks are coming to our communities, let's figure out what we can do, laura. >> thanks so much, kris. well today the city of milpeds will clear the way for an existing card room in santa clara county to move in. they are not saying which card room, pretty good guess is bay 101 which is looking to build a new facility to compete with the recently opened casino matrix. santa clara county supervisor and current mayoral candidate says he will try to, won't try to keep bay 101 in san jose if it wants to move. san jose is one of the most

innovative cities in the world and i'm confident that we are senator and innovative enough to find another more appropriate way to generate new tax revenue and create good paying jobs for our residents that are relying on the tax proceeds from card rooms. it's 5:08, i want to check in with our meteorologist in for christina this morning. if the sheets feel heavy, blame the prompter. >> yes, the humidity is up this morning. and we have some rain across northern california. good news i think for the fire fighting efforts as we get towards chico and redding. it's mainly areas north of danville we've been watching the line of showers moving south out of concord and over towards oakland. you can see that rain waiting along 60 as we head southbound outs of concord or northbound up towards martinez this morning. richmond over towards berkeley.

mainly coming down i think for the north bay, you can see totals getting over about a tenth of an inch out by napa and sonoma. enough to wet the ground in the east bay. most of it falling for today and shutting down by tomorrow morning. 82 degrees today in san jose. should climb almost to near 90 at morgan hill where we get more sunshine around the south bay today. few showers possible around foster city an palo alto, high of 81 degrees. san francisco seeing low 70s. again, it's these locations, north bay, tri-valley, inland portions of the east bay that has the best bet of seeing scattered showers and thundershower, most of that will be north of santa rosa for the afternoon, then notice the transition, second half of the week, temperatures climb, we dry out, 90s coming back to the tri-valley as we wrap up the week. now for a check of your at

temperatures around the south bay will probably be the warmest we'll see around the bay area. close to 90 at morgan hill. 82 in san jose near 70 in san francisco and into the north bay, highs in the mid-70s. best chance of an isolated thundershower will be north of santa rosa for the afternoon and employee substantiateton, about 85 degrees. so the showers likely causing a few issues on your morning commute. for more on over to mike. krrks hp is -- chp subpoena not attribute -- chp is not attributing anything to that slowing. right here the bay bridge toll pla zab, drier roads, but more folks in the cash lanes. especially off of the berkly curve. there you go. look at oakland. we're scanning the area for a stalled vehicle. folks are bunching up, there it is, flashing lights just arrived. folks slowing down. stay over to the right if you're heading up to the area. hopefully they'll clear this. we're talking about this area between the coliseum and up
