>> it's really just an opportunity to -- set up their own small businesses, we're looking for hundreds of small businesses across the united states and we think they will in turn create tons of thousands of delivery jobs across the united states. >> california state house passed a huge privacy bill. the governor signed it last night. not as powerful at europe's gxts dpr but pretty strong and takes effect in 2020. it will allow whether online companies can sell your data. you get to decide that. for that matter even keep your data at all. a new survey of home prices says atherton has the most expensive homes in the united states at $12 million. los altos is second most expensive at half that, 6 million. beverly hills all the way down in fourth. all in all, five of the most expensive cities are in california. chris and marcus, this fellow was employee number seven at tesla, helped create the first

morgan hill and 56 degrees in oakland and in palo alto. and if you're on your way to diridon station, here's a look at our san jose temperature trend for the morning. we will be seeing temperatures in the upper 50s through about 7:00. then by 10:00 we're at 70 degrees, still comfortable. but starting to warm up at noon. we're at 78 degrees as we head into the mid-80s today. alameda county fair is looking very hot today. yesterday was in the 70s. today upper 80s, wouldn't be surprised if we briefly hit 90 degrees. make sure you're prepared for that if you're going to be out there for quite a while. martinez is going to be hot today. wanted to show you one of the places where the temperatures will be even hotter today, up to 93 degrees already by 3:00. we should be a couple of degrees above that for our high today. antioch will reach 95 degrees -- 94 degrees in santa rosa and san francisco today up to 73

degrees. so here's the issue. we are going to have a red flag warning in effect for much of the north bay. that includes solano county and lake county as well as northern sonoma county. that means that humidity will be low and temperatures will be high and any little spark could cause a wildfire in the pawnee wildfire area. we are getting containment but we'll have to watch that for the potential of some changing winds and changing fire directions too. as we look at our temperatures, where it will be the hottest our inland areas, parts of the north bay where we're looking at triple digit temperatures for tomorrow afternoon. it's still going to be hot but not as hot. as we look at the brief cooling trend as we head into next week. min mike, a slowdown in san jose. >> debris on the roadway. chp swung through the area and didn't see anything but they may

have because we just arrived at what we call the scene, there must be something going on. just around mckee north of this shot and then now see the slowing just building into this camera shot. a little extended slowdown from the scene all the way up to oakland road. somewhere between mckee and oakland road where the debris and the car that hit it are right now. i'm thinking everybody should be moved off quickly but i'll continue to track that. meanwhile the other incidents are out of lanes and no major issues as get up into the bay bridge. the maze and little bit of a backup for the cash lanes and contra costa county, highway 4 moves smoothly. hot as kari showed you tomorrow, even today. over here an easy drive. look at the travel times through the maze, great for the upper shore freeway and bay bridge toll plaza. twin peaks tunnel remains closed and we've been telling you about it all week. i want to show you the last of the weekly reports the kl and m will have delays and uses buses

the iconic "mexicali rose" restaurant in oakland. it's 5:25, today is the last day to dine at the iconic mexicali rose, open more than 90 years and tonight it will close its doors for the last time. the owners are announced their retirement on facebook last week. lost some of its long time eateries in the last few years back in 2016, denova dell ka tessen closed after 90 years of brings and as did the company ravioli factory. all of the good ones are saying good-b good-bye. >> what happens when county workers schedule a strike at the same time the county fair is about to start? in this case the show will go

degrees very nice at 7:00 and then add 11:00, 69 degrees, still not bad, 1:00, upper 70s and it continues to heat up fast. today half moon bay, it will be very nice reaching in the low 6's and that's the kind of weather we'll see for much of the weekend. as we look at those inland valleys, 95 degrees in antioch and even hotter tomorrow. we'll talk about all that's going on around the bay area and help you make plans around the heat. mike, you've been tracking what's happening now for the commute. >> looks a little odd. we're starting with san jose, we see slowing northbound. now, we often see a first about this time but this actually has root roots in a crash 101 north of 280 and 680 interchange and sounds like someone hit debris earlier. chp arrived on scene and then we saw slowing. that's right here, slow for about 680 clear by the time you get to oakland road. the rest of the bay shows an

easy drive as you would expect this time on a friday. 5:31. almost 32 now. and we start to see those metering lights on a typical friday but today it's atypical, light because we're approaching that holiday next week. we're talking about how that's going to affect you and we'll talk about our factors coming up. back to you. >> thanks, mike. right now we want to get to the breaking news in san francisco's castro district. this morning police are investigating a suspicious death in the neighborhood. this happened right across the street from the popular badlands nightclub. pete suratos is live with what we know at this hour. good morning, pete. >> reporter: in the past few minutes, the scene cleared up behind me in the parking lot right across the street from the badlands nightclub, we do know it's being treated as a suspicious death by san francisco fleece but don't know information out today of that. we did see a car being towed away, we're going to get more information at this point. we're looking at video from the

scene earlier this morning and according to san francisco police, roughly around 11:00 a.m., they were responding to either a fight or robbery in progress in this area on 18th and castro and when they arrived they found a person in pretty bad shape and medical personnel were not able to save him. he passed away from his injuries and at this point police still aren't explaining how it happened and it's unclear what type of injuries the victim had but currently being treated as a suspicious death at this point. we'll continue to provide any new updates as they come in. pete suratos for "today in the bay." >> thank you very much. readers are waking up to haunting front page in maryland, the capital gazette went on doing what it does best, printed a newspaper in despite of deadly ram page in which five co-workers were killed. across the top, the five people shot in cold blood. four of them are journalists at the paper and authorities in

annapolis say a man with a grudge against the paper fired a shotgun through the glass and then went inside. here's a look at that man police arrested. 38-year-old jarrod ramos, one young intern who hid under a desk talks on the "today" show about the horrifying experience and aftermath. >> unfortunately we saw -- we had to pass two bodies of our colleagues which was something that nobody should ever have to stomach. it's unfortunate that somebody would come into a place that only reports truthful stories that are fact based and unleash hell on the office. >> so sad anyone had to live through that. that tweet from that intern's phone was among the first signals a rampage was going on. three other workers were also injured. police arrived at the scene within about one minute of that shooting and officers satisfy they found a suspect hiding under a desk. >> a final update to a story we have been updating for years

now. the family of this oakland teenager, who was at the center of a controversial brain death case said she died last week. you might remember this story started when she underwent a ton sill lektmy and the coroner ruled she died then. the family would not accept that ruling and moved her to new jersey for continuing care. jahi, now almost five years older passed away from excessive bleeding and liver failure following a new operation. the family says it's been a long fight to keep her on life support. >> she passed away surrounded in love on her time and not on some doctor's time. her mother released a statement, if you're tired and worn out from the struggle and want to be with god, i give you permission

to go. jahi's family will bring her back to the bay area to lay her to rest. >> the suspects in the deadly ghost ship warehouse fire are scheduled to be back in court for a pretrial hearing that may alter the course of the case. following a hearing monday, the attorney for derrickalmena suggested his client may be considering a plea deal. the hearing is expected to pick up on negotiations and trial for amena and max harris is still on track to again in mid-july. great news to tell you about this morning. this is coming from the fire up north. this is burning in lake county. firefighters say the pawnee fire is not growing this morning. mandatory evacuations in the double eagle community are over and that fire is 50% contained. now, it has charred more than 13,000 acres, destroying 22 structures, including several homes. >> kari has been mentioning the dangerous heat coming our way and in east bay you will have

one more place to try to cool down this weekend. the water playground at the popular water park in the east bay is going to reopen. blue goose park in brentwood was given the all clear after a section of the park was shut down monday. inspection from the health department shut it down after four kids were vomiting and had diarrhea after playing in the water playground on june 11th. inspectors discovered maintenance problems and those problems have now been fixed. >> can you believe it? june 29th and first half of 2018, just about to go in the books and with that the second half of the year, caltrains monthly passes will cost you a little bit more. caltrain is adding an additional day to the monthly pass rate. the passes will not be calculated on 15 days of travel instead of 14. those costs varying from the number of zones you currently travel. july's monthly passes went on

sale eight days ago. >> all right, look at this, a lot of green as you would expect and hope for. bottom of the screen right where it says san jose, you see that little blip starting to clear up a little better, looks like whatever the kroosh was, the debris hit clearing from 101. 101 the opposite case over here in san martin. i'll point here, northbound a little bit of slowing just starting to build towards morgan hill. we are looking at a later start to your commute because it is friday. but we do still have the typical commute spots for the longer drive coming to slowing a bit for 101 again. over here out of the altamont, we're looking good into livermore, 25 minutes from grant line over towards the dublin interchange. no surprises, just a gradual build as is often the case on a friday. as we move over here, the peninsula, 101 with headlights going north past university, an easy flow of traffic on the peninsula expected this to get even more crowded as the day
