bridge. >> i'm concerned about the bay bridge because that's where we had reports of a disabled vehicle. your speed sensors all around the bay looking great. remember, it's friday. remember it is the summertime. we might have a few more folks heading into the office because they might have been sick with the warriors parade yesterday. looking toward treasure island, the sensors are no longer showing any slowing. i did see flashing lights just shy of treasure island and now there's a blink of the lights because of the obstruction from the bridge. we don't have any more flashing lights and it looks like lanes are open once again. so far you're okay getting into san francisco. back to you. back to that microclimate weather coverage this morning, a live look at dublin and fremont this morning. not too hot yet, but that is about to change. i even felt it walking into the building this morning. >> there's a humidity in the air and certainly it's already warm when you step out your door. chuck is joining us in santa clara with how you can beat the heat this weekend. are you going for a swim, chuck?

>> reporter: it's not hot yet, but it's gonna be. coming up, a little more on which pools are open just in time for our first blast of heat. oh, shall i keep going? i can go a little longer here. we're at the warburton park over in santa clara where they have just opened the pools this week. it's not open at this hour but it will be open from 1:15 to 4:15 and it will be open saturday and sunday from 12:30 to 4:30. on the other side of town, international swim center on patricia drive will be open from 1:30 to 5:00 monday through friday and 12:30 to 4:30 saturday and sunday. you don't have to be a resident of santa clara to take advantage of these. these are just a couple of municipal pools that will be open. you can check your city's website for more information. and the red cross has some additional heat tips as well beyond the average -- the usual things we hear, such as wear

loose clothing and drink plenty of fluids. among those tips, postpone outdoor activity such as physical work or do that work in the morning. use a buddy system. work outdoors. if you're going to work on the yard, maybe tell somebody you're going to be outside. check on those without air conditioning. your family, your friends, your neighbors. it's a good neighborly thing to do, just check when the temperature gets to the triple digits. lastly, please check on your animals. if you're going to leave the place, leave your home, leave a window open for them if you're not going to have the air conditioning on as well. hot cars are also deadly, according to the red cross. they say if you are -- do not leave children or pets in the cars. temperatures inside those vehicles can get up to 120 degrees very quickly. as i said, it's not hot yet, but it's going to be very soon. places like warburton park in santa clara not only has a swimming pool but a play area,

plenty of trees for picnicking and relaxing in the shade on this soon to say very hot day. reporting live, i'm chuck coppola, "today in the bay. ". we have some breaking news to get to this morning out of london and that deadly high rise fire just into our newsroom within the last half hour. the death toll has now risen to 30 people and likely still climbing. scotland yard is now reportedly opening up a criminal investigation into that fire. firefighters have still been unable to conduct a full search of the building, and they do warn the death toll could reach the triple digits. they will not look further into the building until support structures to shore it up are good to go. more breaking news into the newsroom and developing as we speak. the russian defense ministry says they may have killed the top isis leader in an air strike. russian officials posted on facebook that an air strike on may 28th killed 30 field commanders and up to 300 militants during an isis

conference there. they're also saying that there are reports that ibrahim abu bakr al baghdadi, isis' leader, was also killed. u.s. officials are working to confirm that right now. there have been multiple reports of baghdadi's death in the past but those turned out to be false. americaers pastime took on a new meaning in the nation's capital last night. thousands of people showing up for the annual congressional charity baseball game. many, many more than that also watching online. and of course the backdrop for this is coming one day after a gunman opened fire on the republican team's practice, badly injuring a congressman. blayne alexander is joining us live on capitol hill with more on this emotional evening and certainly for this night, this was not about being democrats or republicans, it was a show of unity. >> absolutely, sam. you said it absolutely right. good morning to you. you know, this game dates all the way back to 1909. so for more than 100 years it's

been a long-standing tradition of bringing republicans and democrats together on the baseball field but so many people would agree that that unity was never more necessary than last night. america's favorite pastime for many became america's healing. >> you can see it on the field. everyone is really supportive of each other. >> throwing out the first pitch, officer david bailey, one of the two capitol police officers who returned fire at wednesday's practice. and a video message from president trump. >> by playing tonight, you are showing the world that we will not be intimidated by threats. >> before the cheers, a moment of silence at second base, the position that would have been played by congressman steve scalise, and where he was standing wednesday during practice when a bullet ripped through his hip. he remains in critical condition. >> this is america. as i've told people before, america doesn't give in, america doesn't give out. when we get punched, we punch back. >> the colors of the night,

purple and gold, a nod to the wounded congressman's alma mater, lsu. >> i think it's a distraction people on capitol hill need right now. >> the final score 11-2, a win for democrats, who then gave the trophy to republicans to go in congressman scalise's office. blayne alexander, nbc news, washington. it is 5:06 now. happening today, president trump set his sights on cuba and u.s. relations with the island nation. in miami the president will announce new and revised policies led to stop u.s. cash flow to cuba's military and security services. at the same time, the president says he hopes to maintain recently re-established diplomatic relations, allowing u.s. travelers to visit the island. 5:06 right now. a developing story, we're learning more about the men who were killed in that u.p.s. shooting earlier this week in san francisco. the drivers, michael lefiti, benson louie and wayne chan were all shot and killed by jimmy lam on wednesday.

replacement u.p.s. drivers broke the bad news to customers yesterday that that i driver, 56-year-old, wayne chan of san francisco is not coming back. >> this morning i was walking to work. i saw the u.p.s. drivers around the block and i was like, oh, god, i can't wait to see wayne to make sure that he's okay. and then they came and told us. >> he was a really caring guy, so of course he's going to get involved with everybody. and we're going to get involved with him. it takes a piece of my heart. >> you see the connections that folks form with people on their route in their community. people also right now grieving for 50-year-old benson louie. he was a devoted volleyball coach and a father figure to many. in the meantime that memorial for mike lefiti of hercules continues to grow in diamond heights in san francisco. remembering a life taken too soon. today a viewing will be held for

an antioch boy killed during an accidental shooting last week. last night friends and family gathered to remember 15-year-old mar cos garcia. he was shot in the chest by a pellet rifle by a friend. police say it appears to have been an accident and no charges have been filed. garcia was a freshman at deer valley high school. the viewing will be set at holy cross cemetery and the funeral will be tomorrow at immaculate heart in brentwood. happening later today, the san jose police department is looking at its biggest batch of new recruits in three years. the much-needed reinforcement here, the san jose police academy class has 54 new recruits this year. that ties the number of recruits back to 2013. as you probably know, the department has been facing a very steep staffing crisis recently. the temperatures are starting to warm up here. in the sierra, though, there are mounds of snow. yosemite national park posted these photos on social media.

crews found that at the 10,000 foot elevation, there's still plenty of snowpack. park rangers say that road crews are being cautious because there are still active avalanche zones in the area and it is june 16th. that is just crazy to see. right now at 5:09, let's get a live look outside at heavenly as the sun rises. beautiful there. if you're going to the sierra within the next few days, it will be in the low 80s at heavenly, up to 84 degrees for tomorrow. so beautiful temperatures and conditions there. but look at how warm it gets as we look at our high temperatures today. in concord up to 98 degrees. but that's going to be nothing compared to what we'll see over the next couple of days. we'll talk about how hot it gets and how to try to stay cool. that's coming up in a few minutes. but mike as an easy commute right now. >> of course, because i'm at work. but everybody else on the roadway, you're right, has an easy commute as well. it's friday, it's early.

we're in the summer vacation for -- i think all the schools got out. a smooth drive for the sensors. we had one earlier issue for 680 that has cleared without delay and also getting toward the bay bridge, a smooth flow. and that disabled vehicle is indeed clear from that span westbound at treasure island. back to you. >> thank you, mike. 5:10 right now. coming up next, dead locked high drama in a pennsylvania courthouse with jurors deadlocked in the bill cosby trial. what this might mean moving forward. plus more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better. we'll tell you how to save your money coming up.

it's 5:13 on this friday. look at the sunrise this morning over san jose. beautiful, clear start and whatever you have to do, get it done early, especially if you need to do some yard work or going for a run, something that's really physical. as we go into the rest of the afternoon, high temperatures reaching into the upper 80s. we'll talk about some higher heat ahead for the weekend. that's coming up at 5:19. >> we're looking over here, great travel times here. highway 17 at the bottom of your screen coming into silicon valley, no problems. heading over towards the santa cruz side, the beach and the coast might be crowded. could there be a mistrial in

the bill cosby sexual assault case? yesterday jurors told the judge they just cannot come to an dprae agreement on a verdict and the judge sent them back to continue to deliberate. the jury of seven men and five women say they're stuck, deadlocked and unable to unanimously agree on any of the three counts of aggravated indecent assault. they have already deliberated for a total of 40 hours. cosby is accused of drugging and sexually assaulting andrea constand. now for a story you'll only see here. a former tech ceo being ordered to surrender today. he needs to start a one-month jail sentence for domestic violence. we are learning that the victim is his estranged wife and she's not happy with the punishment that was handed down. earlier this week he faced two felony counts of domestic violence for beating his wife. during plea bargaining, those charges ended up getting reduced. yesterday the judge accepted most of the terms of the plea deal which includes that 30-day

jail sentence. the victim says after a decade of abuse, she expected a more severe punishment. >> these people who we believe when we're in the privacy of our homes, they're stronger than us are actually way weaker than us. we're the stronger ones who are able to take the abuse and still survive. >> in addition to that month in jail, he was also sentenced to five months community service and three years of probation. kris, jeff bezos thinking about giving away many of his billions. >> billions with a b. he wants us to help. >> he tweeted out asking for ideas. bezos the founder of amazon. he's one of the richest people in the world but one of the few billionaires who haven't been very public about giving away their money. that seems to be changing. he's asking for ideas for charity that will help right away. more like putting homeless in homes immediately. bezos tweeted out, i want my philanthropic activity to be helping people here and now,

short term. just reply to him on twitter with your ideas. tech stocks continue to decline. apple has lost 7% over the last five days. in fact reuters point out if you take the five biggest tech companies, combine their losses in the past week and it's enough money to buy the airplane maker boeing for cash. shares of snap have fallen to 17. that's the ipo price. put another way, the company is no more valuable now than it was when the first investors bought in. netflix has reversed itself. it will take part in a net neutrality protest next week. other websites, including amazon, taking part. the fcc under president trump is planning to reverse moves made by the fcc under president obama, made to protected in neutrality, which is basically the idea that all data on the internet should be treated equally. no company like google should be able to pay more to get its data to you first or faster. that means small startups have an equal chance with consumers.

there are arguments against it as well. not all data is equal. sending your child's medical records to the hospital more important than funny cat pictures. a scientific paper published in the journal of acoustical society of america says there's absolutely no correlation between the price, what you pay for headphones and their quality, specifically their frequency response. >> really? >> yeah. they did say the ones that go in your ear give you better bass response than the ones over the ear or around the ear, but there is no relationship between the ones that are $300 and the ones that are $50. >> i got a free pair on an airplane and they just don't stay in. they sound okay, according to that, though, right? >> yeah, they sound okay. >> so we're all being scammed. people that shell out hundreds of dollars -- >> i think scientists would say there's no causal correlation between quality and price. >> we got scammed. >> all right. a family of bears found a new home with the oakland zoo

after being caught breaking into someone else's home. a mother black bear and her cubs raided a home near bakersfield back in may. oh, my goodness, they're so cute. the homeowner tried to scare her away but the bear took a swipe at her. instead of putting the bear down, they gave them to the oakland zoo. they are expected to live in a new exhibit opening next summer, and now they have a place of their own. >> you know, we see these bears all the time. not in the east bay so much but they seem friendly enough. i wouldn't want to get too close. >> they're not waving at you. >> is that a dwreegreeting? >> that mother bear introduced her cubs to the life of crime. >> the apple does not fall far from the tree. >> we always say when it's hot, take care of your pets, make sure you don't leave them

outside, make sure they have plenty of water and maybe even some of those booties for the paws as those temperatures heat up. it is going to be a hot weekend, especially away from the coast. looking at temperatures that are starting out nice and mild with all clear skies. it's in the lower 60s now. taking a look at three more microclimates in the center of the screen at san francisco and it's 58 degrees. look at the south bay and the temperatures at the bottom of the screen reaching 100 degrees on sunday. well, today it's going to start to really heat up. in the low 90s for the south county. east san jose up to 90 degrees. los gatos up to 89 degrees there. and 83 in hayward while danville will be at 93 degrees. we're going to start to see 90s a little bit more common for the valleys, but for the peninsula we are going to see mid to upper 80s today and 60s along the coast. san francisco will also have some 60s as you go through outer sunset, but right on the other side of the city, the eastern

sides of the city will be in the upper 70s and then for the north bay, some upper 90s today in napa. so if you want somewhere nice and cool to go hit the links, how about half moon bay. it will be at 60 degrees at 9:00 and a few clouds throughout the morning. some fog also developing, but then we'll see it clearing out today and temperatures reaching into the mid-60s. now, we do have a heat advisory in effect that starts for today and for the rest of the weekend into monday, we will have that heat advisory continuing during the hottest hours of the day. just in case you're wondering how hot can it get during the month of june? well, the hottest temperatures we've had are in napa, 113 degrees. looking at the seven-day forecast, we stay in the 70s for san francisco. we will have some places to go cool off with a short drive, because if you head for the inland valleys, it will be in the triple digits into next week. mike has an easier drive through oakland today. i wonder why.

>> there are fewer blockades today, not as much parade activity. there's no parade right now so that's a smooth flow of traffic around the bay. as we move the map up, there's a smooth drive down the upper east shore freeway as well as throughout the north bay so traffic is flowing very well right now. i want to take you to the waze system. mass transit will have no delays so we'll show you your drive across the bay. dumbarton and san mateo bridge is moving well. notice, you notice the san mateo bridge moves smoothly. then you get crowded on 92 as folks head over to half moon bay, getting a break from the heat. now check your waze system either now or wherever you're going tlou going throughout the weekend and beat some of the traffic. join our team, nbc bay area wazwaz wazers. some true heroism all caught on camera.

>> oh, my god! >> the tense newly released body camera footage that shows the great length that one police officer went to to save a man from his burning car.

we've got to go. we've got to go.

>> some painful video here to see and to listen to. this new video out of florida showing police rescuing a man who was burning inside of a car. this happened back in february. the new jersey man was driving along u.s. 1 in titusville before he crashed into concrete barrels. police dragged the man away from his burning car just before the vehicle exploded. he is expected to be okay. certainly that sounded very scary. 5:25 right now. authorities are crediting a tennessee homeowner for the capture of two escaped georgia prison inmates. deputies say the two tried to steal a car from the home yesterday. that's when the homeowner caught the pair, held them at gunpoint until deputies arrived. earlier the escapees had led highway patrol officers on a chase that ended in a crash. they ended up getting away on foot. the two will be extradited back to georgia where they had escaped from a prison transport bus on tuesday and killed two guards on that bus. it is 5:25 now. happening today a judge is expected to hand down a verdict

on the case of massachusetts woman accused of convincing her boyfriend to kill himself via text messages. michelle carter is charged with manslaughter for the death of conrad roy back in 2014. prosecutors say carter texted roy to get back in his truck after he became afraid trying to kill himself with carbon monoxide. a heroic tribute to the late adam west as the iconic bat signal was shining in los angeles. l.a. city hall lit the signal in the actor's memory. west played batman in the 1960s tv series. there it is. the show's gotham city police used that signal to call batman whenever they needed help. on thursday, hundreds of west fans, some dressed up in their own bat costumes, rallied to the signal to pay tribute. >> batman was wanting everybody to be the best that they can be, and that was how he typified batman. >> you don't have to wear a cape, you don't have to be a movie star, you don't have to

wear a badge or be elected mayor to make a difference and to be a hero. >> west died of leukemia in los angeles last friday. he was 86 years old. >> what a perfect tribute. coming up, here comes the heat wave. it's already been pretty hot, but this is just the beginning. meteorologist kari hall is tracking what we can expect for father's day. >> and the heat advisory begins today, continues through father's day. heat is on, especially for the inland valleys, while the coast will still stay nice and comfortable. we'll talk about that temperature spread coming up next. the two men pictured on your screen will appear in court this morning facing charges in connection to the deadly ghost ship warehouse fire. i'll have the new details on how one of them is pushing back on those allegations.

food. water. internet. we need it to live. but what we don't need are surprises, like extra monthly fees. i see you, fee, played by legendary actress anjelica huston. you got me, mark. we just want fast internet for one, simple rate. for all the streaming and the shopping and the newsing, but most of all... for the this. internet for one everyday simple price and no extra monthly fees.

it is 5:30 right now and we are looking live at downtown san jose. you can see the top of the basilica down there and you know right nearby is the plaza de cesar chavez and those fountains. they are going to be crowded because the heat is cranking coming into the weekend. thanks for joining us on this friday. i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia-cannon. >> i'm sam brock. the parents will watch the kids. >> we might see some parents doing it. >> maybe we will. extreme situations call for extreme measures. kari hall, we are looking at very hot temperatures coming up. >> and also this weekend there will be the juneteenth

celebration, so some concerts going on in all of that heat. we'll talk about that coming up in a few minutes. let's get a live look outside at daly city. it's fogged in right now and it's 58 degrees. then we see all clear skies looking over the south bay from mt. hamilton. as the sun rises this morning, that's where temperatures will really start to heat up. up to 90 degrees in the south bay of the on the left side of the screen in the tri-valley looking live at pleasanton, up to 95 degrees. we'll have some upper 90s also for the north bay while san francisco will see more sunshine, up to 77 degrees. coming up in seven minutes, i'll have a look at the weekend forecast, but mike shows us a little bit of a build for the east bay. >> a little bit. we're looking at a smooth flow of traffic for the most part. speed sensors look great. i do want to talk about mass transit also back in place. no delays or reroutes for mass transit. downtown is open again after yesterday's crazy busy parade. the bay bridge toll plaza not crazy busy but we do see lanes

are slowly building up. the metering lights must have been turned on in the last few minutes. a lighter build, a slower build, but it still builds. back to you. >> thank you very much, mike. happening today, the two men who were charged in connection to last year's deadly ghost ship warehouse fire may be in court as early as this morning. >> steve is live at the jail with what we know about their cases and what we could expect. you were alluding to the fact one of them is talking. >> reporter: good morning to both of you. both men are still behind bars here at the santa rita jail in tub -- dublin. they're expected to take part in an arraignment later this morning in oakland. max harris spoke exclusively to the "east bay times." he's pictured on the right of your screen. he's doubting the allegations made by the d.a.'s office that he blocked off the second floor stairwell of the ghost ship warehouse during preparations for the party that took place in the building that night back in

december. now, prosecutors argue that party goers had to use a set of makeshift stairs in order to escape this fire which resulted in the death of 36 people. harris went on to say in the article he had no idea where that allegation came from and was described in that piece as looking gaunt. both men face 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. the initial arraignment was delayed. since harris was still in custody in southern california. but today's arraignment is set to take place in oakland at 8:30 a.m. we're live in dublin. >> thank you very much for that update. 5:33 right now. we've got some new details on the gunman who, as it turns out, methodically targeted fellow workers at a san francisco u.p.s. facility on wednesday. driver jimmy lam shot and killed three co-workers before finally turning the gun on himself. two of the drivers shot in that rampage have been released from the hospital. witnesses say lam entered the

facility shortly before a staff meeting on the third floor that morning and singled out his victims, telling some of the other workers to get out. we're told that lam may have believed that he was being belittled by fellow drivers. he had recently filed an overtime grievance. happening today, san francisco reveals results of this year's homeless count. the sf gate report homelessness increased in the western parts of the city, including the richmond district, and tourist hot spots like fisherman's wharf. in the rest of the city the homeless population dropped. some residents are fuming about what they say is the number of cars idling around town. the concern is that they are leading to more pollution. "the mercury news" reports one person being singled out is facebook ceo mark zuckerberg. anti-idlers accuse his security staff of leaving their cars running for too long. facebook actually responded to those claims saying staffers

make every effort to eliminate unnecessary pollution. other groups being singled out are shuttle and van drivers near caltrain staums aops and uber at drivers. more than a million people on the streets of downtown oakland and around lake merritt for the big warriors victory parade. everyone, anyone was there, including the stars, steph curry, k.d., klay thompson and draymond green. >> you heard of those guys, right? there were a lot of players out there. there were eight miles long of fans on the parade route yesterday. all of them standing shoulder to shoulder cheering for the golden state warriors. i will say people got really creative about how they were seeing this, hanging out of windows, getting their friends office spaces. those fans did not want the fun to end. >> it might go for the whole week. >> everybody is coming together because we all rock with the

warriors. we've been doing this since they were paying us to go to the game. >> there were some tough times, no doubt about that. the parade ended with a rally. fantastic and just a picture perfect day weatherwise in oakland. half of our crew here was out there enjoying all the festivities. as amazing as it sounds and looks from the pictures, nothing can replicate or tell you what it feels like to be out there. the electricity was unbelievable. you want to see all the highlights from the warriors parade, we've got you covered. all sorts of video and pictures and clips and kids dressed up and dogs dressed up, all of that on our home page. we posted it right on the front page of nbcbayarea.com. >> one of my colifelong warriors fans told me, we watched a lot of bad basketball to get to this point. thank you, warriors, for celebrating with all of us. over here we're celebrating the friday lighter commute. the celebration as far as the parade goes has cleared from

do downtown oakland. i'm hearing about what's possibly a roadside fire around sterling tree getting onto eastbound 80 so we'll track that. no details from chp. they're going to send someone to check out the situation. nothing being reported from san francisco fire either. here's you're approach to the bay bridge toll plaza where the metering lights are on. standard backup for a friday. we'll give you a live look at san jose to show you that it's just starting to kick in on 101. friday tends to be a lighter volume overall. >> they should come up with a name for that. >> how about not so bad friday? we'll work on it. it's almost the weekend. you might want to hit the road because in some spots of the bay area, it's going to be absolutely miserably scorchingly hot. >> yeah. and this is one of those good heat events where we still have places to go to escape. sometimes even the coastline, we will have an escape route this weekend. let's get a look at tomorrow's forecast. at 72 degrees for the coast, it

is going to be so nice there. and the bay is going to be warm there as well, up to 85 degrees. inland up to 97. you'll want to take it easy. and father's day this weekend, we're making plans to spend time with dad, and it will be up to 101 degrees inland. and you'll want to find some air conditioning, a pool and just try to stay in the air conditioning, of course, and maybe drive to the coast. it will be in the mid-70s. looking at some of the events going on, how about the soy and tofu festival, you can hang out with mike. it will be in the mid-70s for the afternoon and mostly sunny skies. and we talked about the heat and the juneteenth in the park celebration happening for tomorrow. and it's going to be in the low 90s in the early afternoon hours. it really doesn't cool off much until after sunset. so drink lots of water and try to sit in the shade if you can find a spot there. dancing on the avenue also happening in willow glen and it will be in the low 90s, of

course, for the middle of the day. but then as we head towards the end of the afternoon into the evening, it will be in the upper 70s. here's a live look out there right now in the sierra. you really can't beat this view, squaw valley. it will be in the upper 70s to low 80s, so very warm for the sierra with more snow melt happening. and in yosemite, here's a look now live at the sunrise. all clear skies there, but there will be a chance of thunderstorms by the weekend, highs in the upper 70s. i'll have a look at today's temperature trend for fremont coming up in three minutes. >> coming up, an unexpected side effect of our wet winter. how the weather could actually trigger earthquakes. and president trump this morning, he says he wants to see the evidence against him. we'll bring you the very latest when "today in the bay" continues.

it's 5:42. let's take a live look outside right now at fremont as you get ready to head out the door. nice and cool, but let me show you the temperature trend for today. at 9:00 we're at 67 and rising into the upper 80s fairly quickly by this afternoon. grab a bottle of water and don't forget the sunscreen. we'll talk about what's ahead for the weekend as the temperatures continue to go up and a heat advisory kicks in. that's in about five minutes. kari, the live look at 101

near university, there you go, you see chp there chasing a report of what's a wrong-way driver on that southbound side. i'm going to track that very closely. we'll bring you the latest coming up. it is 5:43 right now. it turns out that plate tectonics may not be the only thing triggering california's earthquakes. a new study by uc berkeley researchers suggest that snow and rain in the winter months may actually act as weights on california's mountains. then when the state dries out in the summer months, it may lead to the earth's crust rebounding, causing a seasonal uptick in small quakes. maybe there is some truth to that term earthquake weather after all. 5:43 right now on your friday morning. doctors say that the american who was freed this week from north korea is in a state of unresponsive wakefulness. that's the term that they have used. he's shown no signs of understanding verbal commands. otto warmbier is in a cincinnati hospital. he arrived in a coma. north korea said it was a result

of botulism and a sleeping pill. that's the country's claim. yesterday warmbier's father held a news conference wearing the sport coat once won by his son in this video. he cast doubt on north korea's explanation that cincinnati doctors later supported. >> even if you believe their explanation of botulism and a sleeping pill causing the coma, and we don't, there is no excuse for any civilized nation to have kept his condition secret. >> warmbier was sentenced last year to 15 years of hard labor. he was accused of north korea of stealing a propaganda banner. president trump will announce changes to america's brand new cuba policy this morning. >> scott mcgrew, most americans, though, still going to be able to travel to cuba. >> that's right. the president will make that announcement later today. the white house says the policy, the adjustments will make it more difficult for money to go to the cuban military. the u.s. will end the people-to-people reason to visiting but there are other

reasons you can use. last night nbc news announced it had confirmed the same news "the washington post" announced earlier this week, that the president is under investigation for the obstruction of justice. as you well know, because the president says it often, he was not under investigation originally, but then in several statements both public and private, the president made statements that caught the attention of investigators. most specifically his admission to lester holt that he fired jim comey because of the russia investigation. president trump tweeted this morning after seven months of investigations and committee hearings about my collusion with the russians, nobody has been able to show any proof. sad! now, that's a little bit of a misdirection. the latest news is not that the president is being investigated for collusion, he's being investigated for interfering with the investigation of his campaign's collusion. president trump has also

taken several shots at the team investigating, calling them bad people. that's caused some backlash even among republicans. robert mueller is a former fbi director who earned a bronze star in vietnam. "the new york times" reports this morning investigators have told the members of the trump campaign to save documents pertaining to russia and ukraine as well as several people who worked on the campaign, including carter page and paul manafort. vice president mike pence has publicly acknowledged he's hired a public attorney to deal with any legal questions related to the campaign. the lawyer's salary will not be paid with taxpayer funds. amidst all this, you've got the health care bill moving through the senate. few people have actually seen it. republican chuck grassley from iowa has complained he doesn't know what's in it. earlier this week president trump called the house version of this bill mean. that was the same health care bill that president trump invited lawmakers back to the white house rose guard enarden celebrate. we're always interested in what you think of president trump,

our coverage of the issues as well. we've taken several viewers' suggestions and adopted them. take part, you can reach me at twitter. happening today, if the word funnel cake and pig races gets you excited, you should listen up. the bay area's largest fair gets under way. are you salivating? >> they race pigs, that's a thing? i'm really excited about these pig races. this is a return of the alameda county fair kris is talking about. that opens up today at 11:00 a.m. kids are free until 5:00 p.m. it ends on july the 9th, so you've got a week and a half or so to enjoy this. except for the july 4th weekend, as the fair is closed on mondays and tuesdays. it's actually several weeks of fair time. are you ready to get this party started or what? >> i need to clarify, though, pigs race one another so we don't -- it's not humans --

>> do they fly as well? >> that's just nuts. >> now, when pigs fly -- well, anyways. >> if you were to go any time soon, obviously it's going to be oppressively hot. >> yeah, that's what we've all been talking about, just spending a lot of time outdoors is not a good idea because most people don't realize how dangerous heat can be. that's why the national weather service has issued a heat advisory. right now looking at the castro as you make up and head out the door, it's only 58 degrees, a beautiful start and an amazing sunrise. seven-day forecast now at the bottom of the screen. starting in the south bay and overhead we're looking at a view from tiburon looking towards san francisco and the golden gate bridge. i want to show you these high temperatures for the south bay. gilroy up to 93 degrees. we'll see more of the same for the inland parts of the east bay, up to 93 and livermore and 83 in hayward. for the peninsula still nice and cool along the coast.

you know the road getting over to half moon bay will be very slow so allow a lot of time to get there. san francisco will be in the upper 60s and the outer sunset, and upper 70s for the mission district. mill valley gray degrees. and 97 in napa. looking out the day today, not a lot of layers needed. we start out mild temperatures so it's a day for short sleeves and shorts. we'll have more of that kind of weather heading into the weekend. and today kicks off the summer concert series on friday evenings at the boardwalk. so it will be in the mid-70s at the time that the concert starts and we'll be in the lower 60s throughout the evening, so great day to head to santa cruz. but this weekend look at napa's forecast. 97 degrees today and up to 105 degrees on sunday. so that's definitely weather where you have to take it easy and try to stay in the air conditioning. it even heats up for carmel

valley. look how hot on sunday, up to 91 grows. that does not happen that often. we are looking at mid-70s for san francisco over the next several days. inland valleys, keep the triple-digit temperatures from sunday into at least wednesday of next week. i'll have more on that. mike is checking on the report of a wrong-way driver. >> always a big concern whenever this shows up on our chp report. we just showed you as chp was flying down the southbound side right at university, the official report came in last seen northbound through that same area, northbound in the southbound lanes, so we're tracking both sides. i haven't seen any interruption. that is good news. haven't heard about any crashes either. we'll take you to the map and this would be right in the area through wood side and marsh. i'll check on that because of that obstruction that showed up on our map. we're looking as well that they reported the wrong-way driver, the build for the commute which is very light right now, no

problems for the tri-valley. of course the bay bridge metering lights are on. i want to show you the waze system. we're talking about castro valley over towards fremont. there's a little slowing for 680 and you saw a little blip in hayward, but no major concern. the purple route is a much quicker route, 10 minutes faster than using 880. that might be because of that volume through hayward. waze will help you make that choice. join our team now and through the weekend when i can't be with you here, we'll be with you on the roadways comparing our information. join our team, nbc bay area wazers, guys. back to you. he's helping to save some time on the road but if you're getting ready for father's day, your time is running out, so make sure you do something nice for dad here. if you're not sure at this point what you're going to get dad, the high-tech gifts that you may want to check out before the big day on sunday. >> but first, happening now, new numbers just in from the warriors parade yesterday. b.a.r.t. says more than 487,000

riders used their trains, and that is about 3% less than 2015. however, it is the top sixth day for the transit agency. also the pentagon will send almost 4,000 more american troops to afghanistan. the deployment will be the largest of american manpower under president trump. we're back in two minutes. s coming up on

sunday... and dads aren )t

big weekend coming up here. father's day is this sunday, and dads, we will all admit, are not always the easiest people to shop for. we've got your back. here's some tech gifts that can keep dad of an eye on the car, house and kids all at the same time. if you're looking to upgrade your dad's ride, try the quick view digital backup camera. it's easy to install and also under $300. the verizon hum is a bluetooth device that basically acts as a wi-fi hot spot and a virtual auto mechanic in case you don't want to roll up your sleeves. it can connect to roadside assistan assistance. >> not only does it give him peace of mind when he's on the road, he also has peace of mind when he hands the car keys to his teen driver. >> all right. so there's another thing here we can talk about is a hall monitoring kit that uses motion

sensors to let dad keep tabs on the house. >> also bourbon. >> always a good suggestion. golf shirts probably work too. cp link has a router system that comes with built-in security features and parental controls. kris, i'm sure you have your own suggestions as well. >> yep. bourbon. new this morning, a woman who was hit in the head boy a stray bullet is speaking out. the bullet came through her roof, ricocheted off the floor before hitting her. the 62-year-old had just bent down to pick up a pair of shoes when she heard what sounded like a whistle followed by a loud bang. it turned out to be a bullet that blew through her roof and ceiling and then hit her in the head. she says she worries she may not have survived if the roof and ceiling hadn't slowed the bullet down. >> it was almost like a pressure vacuum. you felt it before you heard it. all of a sudden there was a huge

explosion and something hit me in the forehead. >> police say bullets that are shot straight up into the air can go as high as two miles and remain in flight for more than a minute. happening today, an east bay man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend and leading police on a lengthy standoff is expected in court. police say 38-year-old gregory shot and killed a 47-year-old woman in walnut creek back in april. the man led police on a 19-hour long standoff in martinez. he is due in court at 8:30 this morning for a plea hearing. you're going to have some input here and help decide how the former concord naval weapons station is going to be repurposed. there is a public workshop being held tomorrow morning to talk about plans to redevelop the area. it is a 5,000-acre base, lots of space to work with. more than 65% of that site will become parks, play fields and open space. the rest of it is going to be developed in phases. tomorrow's meeting starts at 9:00 in the morning at the concord senior center. happening today, the special

olympics torch makes its way up the peninsula. the run starts in just a few hours at 9:00 this morning. it will start at el camino real and end at woodlawn memorial park in daly city. the torch did make its way through san jose yesterday. i posted a picture of the start on my twitter feed. it will go through alameda county next week. the official special olympics summer games start next weekend at uc davis. kris, it was a rough night for the giants last night. not only did they lose to the rockies, they also lost two of their key players. the rockies beat the giants 10-9 last night in colorado after the giants fought their way all the way back into this game. buster posey hit his ninth home run then ended up leaving the game because his ankle was injured. edwardo nunez also leaving the game with a hamstring injury. both players' status is considered day to day. the giants are taking on the

rockies once again tonight. it is high school graduation season all across the country. you've probably noticed that in your facebook feed and whatnot. but one graduate has been waiting a very long time for this big day. >> not your traditional graduate. 90-year-old william tobin. he is 90 and part of the class of 2017 at rockville high school in connecticut. he left high school early back in 1944 and he did it to serve in the navy during world war ii. when he came home, he got married, he built a house, he raised three kids, but getting a high school diploma was always on his bucket list. so he reached out to the school principal for some help and he could not believe the response that he got. >> he got the diploma guaranteed, you don't have to worry about it. how about that history course? i said you made history, you don't need it. >> he met the state rules for retired military members to receive a diploma but he was told there was a catch. he had to go to the school to pick it up on graduation day.

when he got there, the principal invited him to participate in the ceremony. you see he was putting on his cap and gown there, getting a little choked up. you're going to cry over this, aren't you? >> that is so sweet. well, right now at 6:00, we are getting ready for a heat wave in the bay area. >> yeah, the heat advisory begins today and it continues as we head into next week as well. so this is one of the areas, san jose, where we'll be tracking some high heat for the weekend. plus, breaking news overnight. the death toll climbs in the london high-rise fire, and the reason it could go up significantly from there. and the tributes keep pouring in for the victims of the u.p.s. shooting rampage in san francisco. how loved ones and friends and people along their routes are remembering them. "today in the bay" continues right now. thanks for joining us. i'm kris sanchez in for laura garcia-cannon. >> and i'm sam brock. kris, i know you were doing some homewo
