the city says clean up along the banks of the creek is opposite of the homeless encampment and not meant to force folks out of their makeshift homes, but still, the homeless advocates say any action down there, even if it's on the unpopulated side interferes with services. last month san jose arrested six people who had outstanding warrants, but there are an estimated 200 more who call the jukle home and homeless advocates say they will have nowhere to go. even if this city is cleaning up the unpopulated side, it'll make it hard to deliver services and the sfens not going to help. >> this is a back handed way of putting a fence around here so people have no access to this area. then they cannot feed the people down lowe. at the same time, the people down below can't get fed. they're forced to go elsewhere to get fed. >> reporter: now city officials did respond saying they will

coastal ill hilltops later on right now. we have some low clouds around san francisco, but away from the ground, marine layer is up close to 2500 feet this morning. so it's nol really squished down to ground level right now. we're seeing 50s to low 60s outside, but you notice there, the north bay, 53 degrees. so kind of a chilly start. less clouds for you this morning has helped to allow the temperatures to cool off overnight. we're starting off the morning, at least through tomorrow, the red flag warning for the west slope. northern mountains for the chance of seeing more lightning flights. moisture moving up from south to north across the mountains around mt. shasta. you see more coming up through yosemite. wrapping up through the central sierra. some may try to drift further to the west later on today. right now coast tallow clouds then during the afternoon, upper level low which has been sitting offshore begins to approach the coast temporarily. you might see some of the moisture try to keep westward

back to the bay area around the sount clock wise rotation. tomorrow, the low lifts inland, scooped up by a trough of low pressure. this is going to promote stronger northwest wind which should mean cooler temperatures temporarily tuesday and wednesday until the ridge builds back ant temperatures rebound again for the second half of the week, changes you see at the bottom of the screen, seven day forecast warmer approaching next weekend. 83 degrees today in san jose. 87 in saratoga. palo alto, 81 degrees for the north bay temperatures in the 70s. close to 80 in napa and for pleasanton, 88 degrees and livermore near 90. temperatures cooling through wednesday. and then the north bay temperatures start to warm up also.

this morning, as the deadline for folks to clear out with their belongings so that the city can do their clean up along the coyote creek. there is a plan to install part of a fence that you can see here behind me. it's going to be extended with boulders. homeless advocates say it'll create a barrier. however, the clean up is on the opposite side of the homeless encampment to say any action down there interferes with services. just last month, san jose police swept through the encampment arresting six people with outstanding warrants. there are an estimated 600 people who say that if this clean up happens, they will nowhere to go. but with that many people and no services like water or sewage, there have been problems with human waste and fires started by campfires or cooking stoves. if the city is cleaning up the unpopulated side, it'll still make it harder to deliver

services to people who depend on them. >> this is a back handed way of doing a, accomplishing the same thing by putting a fence around here, the people have no way to have access to the area. then they cannot feed the people down below. at the same time, the people down below won't be able to come up and get fed. they're forced to go elsewhere to get fed. >> reporter: now the city officials responded saying that they will continue to provide access to all organizations working with the city's homelessness response team. now as i mentioned, the city did hand out written notices which they have to do by law to the folks who are living in that encampment. it says they have to be out by 7:00 with their belongings. on that same notice, it says that any belongings that remain will be collected by the city, they are legally required to store them for 90 days unless they pose a hazard. folks can reclaim their belongings, but after that, they will be destroyed. . may not be much top you and i who are fortune enough to have a home, but for a lot of these
