the issue this morning at 10:00 at city hall. the examiner reports there have been six major fires in the past 19 months, forcing nearly 200 people out of their homes. the controversial sentencing of a sanford swimmer in a sexual assault case could change state law. district attorney jeff rosen yesterday told a state senate committee that convicted student brock turner had not been eligible for mandatory jail time because the victim was unconscious. current law does not mandate a prison sentence when a rape victim is unconscious. members of the senate committee were shocked by that and voted in favor of a bill which would carry an automatic sentence of prison whether the victim is conscious or not. today is the national day of action on gun violence prevention and nancy pelosi is taking action staging another sit-time this time at san francisco general hospital. that sit-in is not just to end gun violence but also to end hatred. today's action comes after democrats staged a 25-hour-long

4:46 am
but the good news is that it will not be as hot as it has been the past several days. current temperatures it's 59 degrees in san jose and 56 degrees in oakland, 52 degrees as you head out the door in san francisco, and a look at those highs today. it will be up to 67 degrees along the coast, and in the city. 75 in oakland, and then we still have those 90s and even a couple of spots hitting the triple digits but not as many as we had yesterday. livermore to 97 and san jose up to 86 degrees. so you may still be wanting to head to the beach today, half moon bay will be at 60 degrees at 3:00, ocean beach only at 59 and santa cruz in the low 70s, so some 70s there and that is it for the coastal areas, while we will have some spots staying in the 60s so as we break it down for oakland hour by hour, we will be in the 50s to start some morning clouds there and afternoon sunshine and by 2:00 we're at 70 degrees, eventually
4:47 am
hitting the low 70s and dropping back to the 50s as the clouds roll in once again, into the day tomorrow up to 87 degrees in the south bay, when the average high is 83 degrees, that is where we will be on saturday, so a stronger onshore flow helps us out, brings the temperatures back to normal, but in time for the fourth of july, it starts to go back up again by a couple of degrees, so looking ahead to the weekend forecast, all of the microclimates show that we won't have the extreme heat, this will be closer to normal, or just slightly above, up to 88 degrees in the south bay on friday, and san francisco stays in the 60s so very nice there. i'll have another look at the forecast coming up. mike's got a report of a small fire in san jose. >> we're on edge because of the warmer weather and of course the fires that we've been talking about all around the state. first we'll show you the flow of traffic around the bay, what you'd expect, we'll show you the south bay and that's where the report of the fire southbound 880 just off the freeway at coleman, a small brush fire
