let's check in with vianey arana with a look at our weekend forecast. it will be much kocooler, thank goodness. >> we're going to fall into a nice cooling trend, which means multiple days of cooler temperature, which will be a very nice change, especially considering we're in the time of year where we're supposed to be in the cooler temperatures. >> it's going to match the calendar. >> look at this shot of woodside. i want to show it to you again. i just want to show it because you can really see that marine layer hugging the mountain areas and it's at 54 degrees and it's this nice cloud cover, this nice marine layer that's keeping the bay area, especially the coastline, nice and cool. along that creek, looking beautiful with that sunrise. look at that. that's gorgeous. 53 degrees. and the temperatures right now are in the 40s and the 50s. santa rosa, most notably the coolest temperature right now at 43. napa, 44. oakland, 50. hayward, 53, and down in san jose, 56 degrees. but the temperatures will once again climb. today it is still going to be in

the upper 70s and the 80s but at least we're on the right track. look at this 24-hour fog and temperature change. in hayward, six degrees cooler than we were yesterday at this hour. in san francisco, six degrees cooler. and in san jose, four degrees cooler than we were at this hour, so we're definitely seeing already a nice drop in the temperatures, and today, our temperatures will be in the upper 60s along the coastline and san francisco, expecting a high of 69 degrees. near half moon bay, 63, the oakland area will top out in the mid 70s at 75 and the north bay, 83 degrees, napa also expecting to hit those 80s and down near the south bay, san jose, a high of about 83 degrees so definitely a lot more comfortable and yes, there will be a great day to head to the beach, if you're heading up to santa cruz, expect to see a nice, clear in that marine layer by the mid-morning, we'll start seeing plenty of sunshine, upper 60s and 70s. however, if you are planning on heading to the beach, i do want to kind of bring up this matter

because we're talking about dangerous waves this weekend, possible swell of about 6 to 11 feet with breakers between 15 to possibly 20 feet. so, definitely hazardous rip currents all along the coastline so you have to watch out for those sneaker waves and pay attention to any red flag warnings or yellow or green, usually posted up along the sand in the water. if you get caught in a rip current, don't try to swim against it. swim parallel to it. let's talk about that high pressure that brought all of that heat this past week and it's now going to make its exit. so we have that big "h." "h" is for high pressure and that made its exit moving east and now we're welcoming this nice foggy, breezy, dropping our temperatures down by 5 to 10 degrees by today and then even more by tomorrow. and then just looking ahead into friday, we've been talking about the possibility of rain chances all week long. we have this nice jet stream that moves in, this low pressure system and judging by the models, i was looking at some of the models and it's looking pretty promising as we head into friday and then carrying over

even into saturday and possibly sunday as well. so, definitely some good rain chances there. now, as we head into the sunday forecast, the temperatures begin to drop even more into the 60s along the coast and then look at this. by tuesday and wednesday, we start dropping down into the lower 60s. rain comes into play as we head into thursday night and friday morning. look at the drop in the temperatures. 86 degrees our high for today and by sunday, upper 70s and everyo even in land spots, down into the 60s by thursday and friday, good chances for rain but let's welcome that cooler trend that's already under way in the bay area. still ahead on "today in the bay," a local woman unknowingly raises money for the very thing that ends up saving her life. we'll explain as part of our bay area proud series next. believe in karma ...or that

"today in the bay's" garvin thomas explains in this morning's "bay area proud." >> reporter: sonya wasn't born in santa cruz. she moved there 25 years ago and it became her adopted hometown. she volunteered and gave to her community without asking anything in return. but did she receive something? oh, yeah. sonya bruner is back doing the things she love. >> can i go, like, straight? that's better. >> reporter: and is loving every moment of it. >> so happy to be on the water. >> reporter: with the help of friends, sonya recently got on a paddle board, in the roller rink, and on a dance floor. she is beyond thrilled to be any of these places, because just four months ago, this is where

sonya was. >> oh, my goodness. is this it? is this the end of my life? >> reporter: pinned in the driver's seat of her car after a drunk driver crossed the center line and slammed head-on into her. >> it turned out my diaphragm had been ruptured. my lung was collapsed. there were fractured all across my pelvis. three of the disks in my spain were fractured. >> reporter: sonya says she was stuck, in pain, struggling to breathe, for what, to her, felt like an eternity. until firefighters used the jaws of life to cut her out of the wreck. >> i'm so happy that you're still here. >> reporter: recovery has not been easy. but her community has her back. all these activities are a fund-raiser for sonya, payback, it would seem, for all the good she has done over the years for her community. >> this was the uniform i used to wear. >> reporter: like when her son joined the boy scouts. sonya threw herself into it,

chairing just about every committee, helping out with every event, like volunteering year after year for the local firefighters pancake breakfast fund-raiser. >> you know, put on our uniforms and go out and bus tables and serve people pancakes. >> reporter: which explains why a few days after the accident, when she saw a felton fire protection district facebook post about it, she had trouble breathing again. but for a good reason. >> it gave me goose bumps. it was just, wow. >> reporter: it was there she learned the jaws of life used to save her life had been purchased with money raised from those very same pancake breakfasts. >> who knew back then it would come back in that way. this is wonderful. >> reporter: so, among the long list of people she wants to thank for where she is today, she has got to include herself.

as for her recovery, she says it's only been a few weeks since she stopped having to walk with a cane, and as for her roller skating and paddle boarding, she can't wait to get back to both of those. garvin thomas, nbc bay area news. we have much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up, a wild night for the warriors. did you see it? draymond green, ejected. we'll show you what let to this altercation and who draymond is now blaming. plus -- >> reporter: coming up, while some say it's time school educate their educators about transgender issues. which schools are prepared and which ones are not? we investigate.

degrees, peninsula, 51, tri-valley, 52 degrees. and look at san francisco. that's a camera that's supposed to show the golden gate bridge, but right now, the fog is so dense, that you can't even see it. and that's what we're talking about when we say you got to be careful when you drive. keep both hands on the wheel. that visibility can be less than 1/4 of a mile in front of you, so got to be careful with the next couple of hours before that fog burns off by about 8:00 or 9:00 a.m. we'll start to see a change in the fog. but look at the temperatures. 63 degrees by 1:00. 2:00 p.m., 64 degrees in san francisco. and then the temperature trend in san jose also looking very nice. we're talking about 60s by 11:00 a.m. and then the temperatures start to climb into the 70s and if you notice in the icons for the weather, we start seeing a lot of that cloud cover really burn off by about 11:00 a.m. and then we welcome a lot of sunshine, so we'll still be on the warmer side for some areas but the good news is we've got a nice little cooling trend on the way and that is going to set us up for some more fall-like temperatures even as we head into the workweek.

>> stay tuned for that. vianey, thanks. this morning, san francisco police are investigating a violent friday night, a quadruple shooting. it happened just before 7:30 on fill more street near golden gate avenue in the city's western edition neighborhood. police say four people were shot on a crowded sidewalk outside of a liquor store. bullets hit businesses and restaurants just a few doors down from the police station. witnesses scrambled to take cover when they heard the gunshots. >> quick fire, i thought. i couldn't tell if it was separate guns or if it was semiautomatic or an automatic, but i was just hoping it was fireworks. >> all four victims were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. officers have detained two possible suspects. an investigation is under way to determine what ignited the 4-alarm fire in the south bay. flames engulfed a home. cars and trailers in the east san jose foothills yesterday

afternoon. you can see this massive cloud of thick black smoke in the air. 80 firefighters were needed to battle this blaze. crews had trouble reaching the home, though, because all of the debris around it. they needed to go through neighbors' yards to fight this fire. meanwhile, those neighbors were spraying down their own homes and yards with garden hoses. >> it started out with some smoke, and then first explosion. and then flames got into the trees. got on to the house. and started shooting embers into the house next door. >> crews stayed on the scene overnight to make sure that there weren't any flare-ups. we are following developing news out of washington, d.c. a federal grand jury has approved the first charges in the russia probe. this, of course, is spear headed by special council robert mueller. the charges are sealed under an order from a federal judge. at this point, it's not clear what the charges are. but we're told anyone facing charges could be taken into custody as soon as monday.

>> somebody does such an outrageous act, you say, certain, they're crazy, or there's something funny going on. we ought to be able to figure it out. most of the time, we can't. >> the las vegas coroner revealed paddock's body was sent to stanford earlier this month. in related news, the starting line for the upcoming las vegas rock and roll marathon has been moved away from the site of the worst mass shooting in modern u.s. history. the november 12th race will instead start in front of the new york new york resort on the las vegas strip. that's about one mile north of last year's start near the mandalay bay. of course, the site of the october 1st shooting that killed 58 people. it is 7:35. still ahead on "today in the bay," it was fight night at oracle arena. draymond green with an early exit as the warriors try and mount a come-from-behind victory without him. we'll show you how it went next. arena.

we were yesterday. in san francisco, six degrees cooler and more fog and marine layer moving in, so there's periods where it will clear out and we'll start seeing some patchy, dense fog which means if you're driving, you could hit a spot where you see dense fog. please be careful, keep both hands on the wheel and let's talk about today's highs, in san francisco, climbing into the upper 60s, 69 degrees, oakland a high of about 75, and concord, 86, livermore 84 and in san jose, upper 80s as well, 83 degrees and if you're heading out to the beach, it's going to be a great beach day. now in montgomeerrey, we are expecting breezy conditions, pair that with cooler temperatures, might be too chilly but the marine layer will clear out by 12:00. looking at 63 degrees and plenty of sunshine but there is a beach hazard in place and what that means is that we are expecting to see some pretty dangerous waves. we're talking about a very tall swell of about 6 to 11 feet with the possibility of seeing 15 to

20-foot break eers, which means yes, you got to watch out for those sneaker waves. remember never turn your back toward the ocean and this is in place for the entire coastline so expect to see that in place at least through tomorrow as we keep seeing those hazardous rip currents. now let's talk about why we're seeing the cooling trend and what changed from the temperatures that we saw earlier this week. well, we had that hot high pressure that really heated us up. high pressure. and then it kind of made its exit east and it's now finally moving off east and as that fog moves in, we're already seeing it hugging the coastline. that's what's kind of blanketing and keeping us cool, dropping our temperatures down to 5 to 10 degrees in some spots. now, just looking really far ahead as we head into friday and saturday, we're talking about the potential for some rain thanks to a low pressure system and this nice little jet stream that's going to come in. we have a good chance of seeing rain thursday night into friday,

running was one way to fit in. >> cross country was one of the only sports that the girls and the boys practiced at the same time and there was the same season. >> reporter: cal is transgender and identifies as a mix of male and female. but didn't know how to tell friends or teachers in high school. you felt alone? >> yeah. i felt alone. i felt scared. i felt i was in a really dark place. i would just cut myself under the desk because as weird as it sounds, cutting gave me a sense of control. >> reporter: what made it so challenging? >> a lot of times, teachers didn't know how to treat me respectfully. like, oh, man, are you going to, you know, change your genitals? that's not something you ask a high schooler. >> reporter: so as a student, you felt like you had to educate your educators. >> there was no training. teachers didn't have any training on how to deal with trans people. when you don't really have anyone at school respecting and

reassuri reassuring a really basic part of who you are, it's -- it's horrible. >> reporter: our investigation revealed gender training for educators varies widely. we surveyed the 20 largest school districts in the bay area. each told us they provide training on transgender issues to at least some of their staff. but only 13 districts offer that education to all of their teachers. at cupertino union and vacaville unified, training is only held if a transgender student is enrolled at school. >> by giving educators the language to understand the diversity of gender, it creates better conditions for our trans kids but it also creates better conditions for every kid. >> reporter: joel baum has traveled the country over the past decade teaching close to 30,000 educators about gender. >> i know i'm going to say the wrong thing. >> reporter: he's a former teacher in the bay area and lead

instructor with the group, gender spectrum. >> you would think that the only young people who have gender are trans and apparently they spend a lot of time going to the bathroom. >> reporter: he shed light on an evolving issue, from vocabulary. >> mtf, ftm, nonbinary and probably much more. >> reporter: to stereotypes. >> which color is the, quote, unquote, boy color? >> reporter: the teacher training here at fremont unified is a first for the district and it's in part thanks to cal who spent high school advocating for it. >> i was bullied in elementary school, called a he/she by peers and harassed in bathrooms from the time i was very, very young. >> reporter: what's at stake here? dr. kim lawless is the district's superintendent and started the new training. is there a danger on just staying silent on the issue? >> i think there's always a danger in staying silent. i really do stand by my belief that we are an educational institution and what we're doing is we're educating people about an issue that hasn't really been talked about. >> reporter: four of the bay

area's largest school districts told us training courses on transgender issues are not offered to teachers. the livermore district was the only one to agree to an interview. >> it's new to us and i will be the first one to say that this is an area in which i'm not an expert. >> reporter: chris is deputy superintendent. he says teachers can rely on administrators who are trained each year to support trans students throughout the district. >> gender biases and pronoun usage and things like that, those are things that we need to become more comfortable with. >> reporter: should that be taken as a sign that the district is in need of more education? >> yeah, i mean, i wouldn't -- if you asked me that question about anything, is the district in need of more training on anything, i would say yes. i do think it's necessary. i will say we haven't done that yet. >> reporter: do you think that's something you might consider in the future? >> absolutely. yeah. >> reporter: even as cal packs for college, the 18-year-old is still trying to unpack the emotional baggage of high school.

cal says educators need to stop running away and join others in moving forward with more training. >> all it really takes is a couple of people in your life to say, we got you. to not feel so alone. >> reporter: to find out if educators in your community receive training on transgender issues, just log on to our website and search for your school district. there you can learn what's being taught to teachers, staff, and students. that's all at nbcbayarea.com/weinvestigate. bigad shaban for us this morning. if you have a story for our investigative unit, call 888-996-tips or visit our website. much more ahead on "today in the bay." coming up, people who lost everything in the north bay fires surprised by a former nfl player bearing gifts for them. another bridge implosion this

victims got a new set of football cleats yesterday, thanks to a group called shoes for kids. they heard some of the members of the peewee team, santa rosa stallions, lost their homes. well, former raiders looib jerry robinson is a member of the shoes for kids board, and also went to high school in santa rosa. >> the love the people have for each other for strangers they don't even know, and i'm glad to be a part of -- i'm glad to be a part of this. and the other thing is, you know, my heart goes out, gratitude for life for the firemen and the responders because they put their lives on the line and we really, truly appreciate that. >> well, after the fire, the group delivered shoes to all the kids at evacuation centers. that is the silver lining to all of this bad news. all of the good news that's come out of it. what a beautiful story. >> it is great. >> yeah. thanks so much for making us a part of your morning. we'll have more local news for you tonight at 5:00, 6:00, and
