92 degrees. san francisco up to 76 degrees. we will have more of this very warm weather over the next several days and it will be foggy at times. a lot of 90s and over 100 degrees. mike now has breaking news for i-80. >> the crash affecting folks coming down to the bridge. the bridges and the freeways on the surface streets moving well. your commute direction as well as your noncommute direction. both directions affected by that overturned big rig. hopped up on the center divide and slow traffic closed in each direction. getting over to the bay bridge we have the change there.

we have the backup, marcus. >> now to hurricane harvey which may cause the worst destruction. towns and cities are under water including the houston metro area home to nearly 6 million people. a better glimpse of the wrath of hurricane harvey and the devastation left behind. this is something you're seeing all throughout the city and even the suburbs of the houston metro area. and here is the very latest. two people are dead. the death toll is exed to rise. submerged in vehicles. more than 1,000 water rescues have been carried out since yesterday. overnight released from two dams for the first time in decades sending more water into the downtown houston area and more new information within the last

hour. fema just said it expects more than 450,000 disaster victims to file for assistance. and this morning live coverage from the wrath of hurricane harvey. some people call this a historic 500-year flood. "today" show's gabby gutierrez. the incidents are just stunning. >> reporter: good morning. it truly is stunning. many people here are calling this historic, catastrophic. however you referred to it this is devastating. i am right now in the southwest part of the city. this is next to the shopping district, the galleria. you can see how high the water is still rising in parts of this city.

behind me 9 or 10 feet or so. further down, the water is just under 20 feet. really incredible how much some of the water is collecting here in certain parts and making roads impassable. there are more evacuations for other suburban communities as authorities release water from two reservoirs to relieve pressure on the dams there. now the water is flowing downstream, one of the main arteries into downtown houston. water is rising at the rate of a foot an hour. we saw hundreds of water rescues throughout this area. people plucked from their room to tops, from their homes, desperately seeking help. as you mentioned the death toll from this storm stands at at least two.

now this is just a massive rainmaker hovering over southeast texas and dumping historic amounts of rainfall. there are some areas that expect, get this, more than 55 inches of rain. a calamity that is just unfolding at this point. back to you. >> it's almost hard to believe. a live report there. harvey is the first big natural disaster for the trump administration. this morning trying to figure out how to keep money and resources flowing into texas. tracie potts joins us live with that part of the story. good morning, tracey. >> reporter: good morning, everyone. my colleague gabe was talking about people being plucked from their rooftops. who is doing all that, supporting that work? the federal government. and now president trump is

heading to texas to see for himself what his administration says will have to be a sustained effort, going to take some time to get all those people to safety. hurricane harvey is gone but with texas expecting two and a half feet of rain, flooding could become a long-term crisis. >> we have to remind ourselves this event is not over. so we do not understand the full scale of the disaster that's there. >> reporter: this is president trump on a conference call with his cabinet. he'll visit texas tomorrow. the administration is for recovery efforts that could take years. but right now the focus is water rescue, people in shelters, 5,000 federal workers getting food and clean water where it's needed most. >> what we do is make sure they have all the resources they need to make decisions based on best interests of the individual. >> reporter: officials are taking some heat for not evacuating houston before the storm and now for president trump pardoning arizona sheriff

joe arpaio. he faced a federal trial for detaining suspected undocumented immigrants. >> that decision goes against the rule of law. >> this should be out of bounds for somebody to use that as some sort of a political -- >> reporter: he had scheduled a news conference today that was abruptly canceled. >> tracie potts reporting there for us. stay with "today in the bay." we'll have much more coverage of tropical storm harvey and now the recovery efforts. we're working with nbc news and "today" show correspondents to bring us live reports throughout the morning. also this morning, we are learning more about the massive protests that took over the streets of berkeley. thousands of counterprotesters came out against people who wanted to demonstrate and share their far right conservative views. the altercation turned violent at times. >> pete suratos is live at the epicenter of all of this.

new details overnight. >> reporter: good morning to you, marcus and laura. quite a scene as you saw in the video from sky ranger. we can report that at least one officer was injured and 13 people were arrested. however, a majority of demonstrators who came out to protest the alt-right did so peacefully. those are the protesters i'm referring to who are marching with large banners and signs like those sending the message to hate groups who might come to berkeley that it's not welcome in their city. that wasn't the case for all of those opposed to that canceled alt-right rally. a small group of trump supporters were shouted down by members of a group that we've become familiar with, an organizer who canceled his conservative protest in san francisco actually came out to berkeley and was roughed up and

chased out of the area by that group of people wearing bandannas and black hoodies. as far as the arrests and injuries go, there were 13 arrests and one officer was injured during all of this. six people were injured as well during yesterday's event and two were sent to the hospital. now here is what one of those peaceful protesters had to say about the importance of speaking out as well as a rally supporter who didn't want to be identified saying his group isn't getting a fair shake. >> we're a very diverse group. we want to be able to send a united message against hate. >> these cities claim to be tolerant, they should be accepting of everybody's opinion. >> reporter: the berkeley mayor did release a statement on the protest inially first addressing the people by saying, quote, they gave impassioned speeches. they played music and showed that berkeley and the bay area will always stand for tolerance,

diversity and justice. the violence that a small group of protesters engaged in against residents and the police including throwing smoke bombs is unacceptable. a number of arrest have is been made. if you have any pictures or videos that can help police catch those who may have caused the violence you're encouraged to turn over the video and pictures to berkeley police. live in berkeley, pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> thank you for that update. on saturday thousands took to the streets in an anti-hate rallies in alamo square, castro mission and civic center people marched and protested against a conservative rally in crissy field which was actually canceled by the organizer. other than a few scuffles today was mostly peaceful. i will show you a smooth drive for most of the bay here on this big map. we'll move to the north bay. i have a correction, a new location, a map with a location we talked about westbound 80.

i had the wrong section of the north bay this is closer to vacaville. better news for a lot of our drivers. if heading out of the area or expecting someone coming into the area, look how much slowing is going on. that big rig overand chp blocking at least one lane in each direction. multiple lanes, multiple directions for the freeway. we'll track that again between vacaville and fair field. over to the bay bridge you see an easy drive. a little slowing across the metering lights and the tri-valley where travel times are fine. you want to get through there quicker today. i understand another weekend ahead of us -- it's monday, but it will be hot again next weekend? >> looks like it. we were hoping for a little bit of some relief from this high heat we just had to deal with. as we look ahead to this weekend coming up, still really hot looking at highs up to 98 degrees in the valleys. the bay will be at 86 degrees

and the coast at 72 degrees. on sunday temperatures down just a couple of degrees, 66 by the coast. the bay 80 degrees and 93 degrees for the valley. if you're going to napa valley look at these temperatures. on friday 104 degrees we'll bring you back to the 90s for the rest of the weekend. still very uncomfortable. if you are planning to go to the sierra, lake tahoe, there will be a chance of thunderstorms on friday with temperatures in the mid-80s, up to 87 degrees saturday and then a little bit better sunday. monterey will have very nice weather with 70s expected there throughout the weekend. i'll have a look at the temperature trend coming up in about four minutes. >> we look forward to that, thank you. it is 5:41. lending a hand. our coverage continues. the bay area crew jumping to the rescue in texas.

excessive heat warnings in effect for all of these areas shaded in orange. i'll talk about those temperatures and what you can expect where you live in five minutes. >> looking over here we have green. the top number is growing. it went to yellow. slowing for the east shore freeway coming up. look at the flooding that has gone on there. a few bay area firefighters are on their way there right now already arriving in houston. yesterday a team from the peninsula packed up boats, gear and crews to head out to texas. 14 firefighters trained in swift water rescues are going. the team will get right to work once they arrive. >> they will put them in the worst locations, because that's

where you want them, the deepest waters where people may be in attics is the best spot. >> the drive to texas takes about 26 hours. >> a grand affair to announce new destinations out of mineta san jose international airport. hurricane harvey has changed those plans. they are scaling that back to a quick announcement at the ticket counter. the mayor will no longer be attending. the airline and airport say the people of texas are in their hearts and minds. homeowners in one sonoma county city may have to pay extra if they don't plan to live there full time. the councilwoman has announced a 1% tax. you would have to pay more if it's not a primary residence.

voters will have the final say. now this proposal comes as the state deals with a housing crisis. overnight we sorted through some numbers from real estate experts. activity in the bay area is down by 11.5 mers. california association of realtors says the shortage of homes for sale remains a top concern followed closely by affordability. 5:47. happening today palo alto city leaders consider banning cars from idling more than two or three minutes after complaints from residents. we decided to look deeper to see how harmful idling is. 65% of pollutants released during the summer come from vehicles. ten seconds of idling uses more fuel than turning it off and on. two minutes costs you one mile

worth of fuel and, get this, an hour of idling equals to one gallon of gas. >> a lot of people heading up to burning man. >> people are descending on the desert for burning man. >> the festival celebrating the arts, inclusion, and the freedom for people to be themselves. a three-hour drive north of reno. the heat made the trek a little hairy yesterday. a few minor accidents. new interactive art thanks to some pretty generous people. i always think it's fascinate to go drive back from tahoe even if you don't go as far as burning man and the dust. >> you will see some people dancing in dust devils no doubt. >> really hot temperatures and we have to deal with it over the week especially for the inland valleys. we were all trying to make it to the coast to try to escape that

high heat. well, now even as we start out this morning at 66 degrees in the south bay as the sun begins to rise, 64 degrees taking a live look outside in palo alto and we do still have the clouds and fog as we take a live look at the golden gate bridge. the seven-day forecast at the bottom of the screen, no relief this week as we are heading up to 108 degrees today in livermore. morgan hill 102. santa cruz, 78 degrees. half moon bay at 68 degrees. san francisco some mid-70s there. we see all of these triple and that's the reason we do have those excessive heat warnings. anytime we have a day like this we always say wear something that's lightweight, light colored and that is very breathable. it's a good day to bring your own shade, something like a hat, and it's a good beach day because that's where the temperatures will be the coolest if you can make sure you try to stay cool and stay out of this

high heat and also if you have breathing problems the ozone levels will be very unhealthy in the east bay and south bay. we have the excessive heat warning in effect and we also have the heat advisories in effect for the valleys. that just means that you do need to take it easy once again and all of this hot weather we are going to keep this as we go through the week. inland up to 105 today. it doesn't get much better towards the end of the week. mike is still tracking the sig alert. it means major impact, at least a half hour and that's up in the north bay between vacaville and fairfield, i-80 is jammed up because of a crash right around jerry glenn. looking over here for the rest of your bay and this map shows a nice, smooth drive. we are showing a build and there's a crash southbound 680 coming down through sunol into fremont. i do see slowing around the washington boulevard bend south of mission.
