6:01 am
that we desperately need the rain but it's going to keep our temperatures down today. a lot of clouds and a few peeks of sunshine but most of our micro climate will stay in the 60s. we'll talk about where we may see the forecast. an auto shop on fire in cupertino. that fire is contained. they are trying to make sure there are no hot spots. some neighbors nearby are being evacuated because of the fire. this could be a scary scene for anyone living near it in the 6:01 right now firefighters at the scene have that fire under control. we're going to keep following the story and bring you any new

6:04 am
white house who had the virus. they are not believed to be ill. meantime, an unpublished white house report is showing this virus is still spreading and spreading rapidly in some rural areas getting better in some areas, worse in other areas. one as high as 650% more cases compared to the week before. laura? >> something to watch. thank you very much, tracie. 6:04 for you this morning. and tesla has now reopened its fremont plant this is defying the alameda county's shelter in place order. bob redell is near the plant. how is the county responding to this? ll, alameda county's health department, marcus, did tell tesla that it could maintain minimum basic operations until a plan for reopening was in place, a plan they expected to receive last night. it's not clear if that happened. it's not clear if the company or ceo elon musk will face any
6:05 am
consequences for reopening their fremont plant without permission. they did this. in a tweet musk said he would be on the assembly line and seemed to dare authorities to arrest him. he reopened after governor newsom lifted restrictions for manufacturing in the state of california while alameda county kept those restrictions in place. alameda county supervisor scott haggerty says he was part of conversations between tesla and the county's public health department. says tesla agreed to do temperature checks on its 10,000 plus fremont workers before bussing them in from the bay area. haggerty says the plan was for tesla to open next week not yesterday. >> i wish elon would have waited one more week so we could have just done this in a methodical fashion that really put people back to work safely. >> reporter: on saturday tesla
6:06 am
filed a lawsuit in federal court against alameda county trying to make the argument the state order should supersede the county's order. musk also tweeted a threat to shut down his factory here in fremont and headquarters in palo alto and move his operations out of state. reporting live here in fremont, bob redell, "today in the bay." thanks for the latest there live, bob. happening today solano county is taking the first steps in the next phase of reopening. supervisors are actually meeting to discuss a strategy for reopening for medium risk businesses. that means dine-in restaurants, bars, hair, and nail salons. the board says the criteria must be developed for those types of places before they can even reopen. the county allowed all low-risk businesses to reopen last friday. a new poll shows most californians would not be comfortable going to a restaurant or gym right now even with spacing precautions.
6:07 am
according to the emerson college survey nearly 65% of california yons answ ians answered no to restaurants and 74% no on going to the gym. about 55% said they would feel comfortable going to the beach or a park with spacing enforced. observing police are searching for a man who damaged a convenience store this is after a clerk there says they asked him to cover his face. so this happened at a 7-eleven in oakland hills. the store clerk says the man that you're going to see right here refused to cover his face when he entered the store so the clerk asked him to leave. they called the police. before officers could arrive the clerk says the man kicked in the door. he stormed out almost shattering the glass. >> we have family. >> lucky that stores like this convenience store are even open. >> fortunately no one was hurt in this incident.
6:08 am
a similar one erupted in target in los angeles. this new surveillance video showing two men assaulting a security guard after being told to wear face protection. as the men were escorted out of the store, one apparently punched the target employees causing him to fall and break his arm. officers managed to arrest both of those men. and homeless advocates in san francisco today plan to call for more action to help those struggling to make it in the bay. they say the city is falling short on plans to house homeless people in 8,000 hotel rooms. mayor london breed has cited staffing issues for the reason they're not maximizing available hotel space. happening today alameda county supervisors will discuss a possible extension to their eviction moratorium. they first approved it in march and then actually extended it out last month. it protects tenants in all cities there along with unincorporated areas.
6:09 am
also concerns in oakland have gotten so deep some are resort to go what activists are calling a renters' strike. nationally, believe it or not, more tenants paid at least part of their rent this month compared to last month. that may be due in part 80% made full or partial rent payments, a slight increase over april but slightly lower than the same time one year ago. bay area communities are helping those in need during the shelter at home order. santa clara county specifically. joining me is milan, the executive director of the african-american agency to talk about the food giveaway. last hour, milan -- first, thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you for having me. >> now i know we were talking last hour you were saying you would serve maybe under 30 people with food but now that need has gone to 200 people.
6:10 am
sorry about the audio problems. now over 200 people. you also are doing so much more. you have moved into helping house a lot of people who are being affected by the pandemic. talk to us about that. >> certainly. with an increase in services here at the african-american services agency we provide information and resources people can go. unfortunately people have not been able to find shelter in place so we've been able to partner with destination home in providing hotel rooms for families and individuals who are currently stressed about where they will lay their head at night. >> you were working hard to help a family get housing. so talk about who we're talking about here because so many people are affected, the demographic that we're seeing, are these people who lost their jobs, did they have jobs before the pandemic? what are we seeing with the need right now? >> it's a little bit of both. the families i was talking about last night have been living in a
6:11 am
building with their family and so we became aware and started to provide them with food and then started advocating for more funding to be able to get them into some shelter which would be one of the local hotels for the minimum of 30 days with the intention of permanent housing. typically african americans and the latino community are really underserved in the area. we're trying to decrease that during the pandemic. >> we have a short time but the program to help kids with continued education, you have been doing more to help those without access to continue their learning right now during the pandemic. what are you all doing with that? >> definitely. so what we're currently doing is eliminating digital and assisting them with some that wasn't happening going from the classroom to home life. what we're doing right now is
6:12 am
providing parents with the tools they need, tablets, laptops, and also a support system with our workers. >> all right. helping those kids with computers and keep the education going during this difficult time. also if people want to find out how they can get help from you, they contact the agency. >> they can contact us by emailing us. >> all right. and i'll post that on my facebook page as well. the executive director for the african-american services agency. thank you, milan. >> thank you. 6:12 for you right now. we want to get a look at the forecast this morning. meteorologist kari hall has been working to keep us up to date and we've talked about showers. so people need to be mindful, keep the umbrellas handy, right? yes, especially in san jose. and we've seen light rain elsewhere as we look at our live camera. light rain falling at this point. we may even get peeks of
6:13 am
sunshine. we'll have a chance of rain in the forecast through tomorrow. i'll have more on that. mike, you're watching the commute. what's going on right now? we have a commute, a little bit showing up out of the altamont. we've been showing you that the last four work days. over here in san jose the live look shows you wet roadways and soupy conditions that cause more slowing. the volume appreciable here. as you look at the ma'am you do see the wind and the rain all showing up here north 101 and north 280 in los altos hills, a new crash and debris blocks your left lanes there as well. back to you. >> thank you, mike. you heard us talking about this before that bay area doctor's photo of a crowded united flight going viral. people still talking about it today. we're going to talk about what united's response is and is it enough? plus an exclusive from boeing ceo about the future of travel.

"the sacramento bee" editorial board taking a hard line on elon musk writing california's public health officials must ignore musk's ranting and stay the course. twitter threats from bratty billionaires, anti-vaccine activists and middle-aged militia members should play no role in guiding public health in a deadly pandemic. concern is growing we're moving too quickly toward reopening. dr. fauci says he will testify to that warning the united states will have unneeded suffering and death if states reopen fast er than the standars
6:18 am
the white house itself sets. he goes before the subcommittee this morning. wall street seems to have been a bit disconnected from the new concerns about a second wave of coronavirus. the nasdaq did well. tesla down about 1%. chicago down 40%. los angeles down 38%. phoenix down 37%. and frontier airlines says it will begin temperature checks on all passengers before they get plane. air kcanada has been doing that.
6:19 am
i was thinking i might get on a plane again to see friends and family. i saw that picture and it was a lot more crowded than i'm comfortable with. >> right, exactly. we'll show it to you now. united airlines is making changes, they say, because so many people have been talking about this viral photo. we showed it to you yesterday morning. take a look at it again. a bay area doctor says he took this picture on his flight home from new york. passengers will get a 24-hour warning if their flight is full. they can change it or cancel the flight. united says it can't guarantee an empty plane. they've been flying a lot of doctors back and forth for free. meantime boeing ceo says the road to recovery will be a very long one.
6:20 am
>> we believe we will return to a growth rate similar to the past but it might take us three to five years to get there. >> some may not survive the economic fallout from the pandemic. if you're looking for a furry friend to shelter in flies you can do it without leaving your home. >> i have a couple that would love to sit on my lap now. pedigree is helping people connect with animals over zoom. you can ask questions about them, even adopt them. if you adopt, pedigree will pay your adoption fees. my dogs do love me being home.
6:21 am
it is raining cats and dogs right now. >> they probably don't want to go out too long this morning and the grass is wet. it's a great thing to see especially this time of year when we're usually trending very dry and we've also had a dry winter. not a lot in san francisco but low visibility and light rain coming down in the tri-valley. take a look at this shot through dublin and this is what the commuters are dealing with this morning. we are going to have to turn on those windshield wipers. this will not be the case throughout the day today. temperatures stay on the cool side. the storm system just to the north of us that will remain and
6:22 am
across the region for today. we're seeing most of the activity this morning. as we go through the forecast a chance of some hit-or-miss showers around the bay. tomorrow still a slight chance of rain moving in but not a lot of widespread rain. most of us are looking at a tenth up to a quarter. that will be the highest amounts we'll see as we go through the next 24 to 36 hours. then after that we'll dry out. low 70s but spiking at 80 degrees on friday as we see some dry weather. more rain possible on sunday. mike, how is it looking for the commute? we saw it was soggy there? and the slippery roadways, the grease and oil will be slick layered. do be careful out there.
6:23 am

6:26 am
we have new details in the wrongful death lawsuits that have been filed by victims' families members in the kobe bryant helicopter crash. in fact, surviving relatives of all eight passengers have now joined the wrongful death lawsuit initially that was filed by bryant's widow, vanessa.
6:27 am
plaintiffs filed the new papers yesterday. the pilot's brother is speaking out against the claim. he says bryant and the other victims knew the risks and the relatives are not entitled to damages from the pilot's estate. the cdc says 5,000 additional deaths in new york city may be related to the coronavirus. local health leaders have reported more than 18,000 deaths so far. but a new report finds that more than 5,000 additional deaths may be directly attributable to the pandemic. governor andrew cuomo saying yesterday that the statewide shutdown will end for some on friday. coming up next, the top stories we're following for you on "today in the bay" on this tuesday morning including new reopening steps on the menu for california. which governor newsom is expected to release today. plus, we're following

6:34 am
take a look at this. some new numbers are offering hope for the bay area. for the first time since march contra costa county reported no new coronavirus cases. the hot zone have just two new cases and no deaths. a statewide view showing deaths. all the county seen here in white reported no new deaths including santa cruz county as well. new infection numbers come as governor newsom prepares to announce a tough decision. whether to loosen restrictions that may help reopen some bay area restaurants and stores. small business owners are anxiously awaiting to see what the governor has to say this morning. "today in the bay's" sharon katsuda is in downtown walnut creek with details on this dilemma. sharon? >> reporter: it is quite the dilemma, marcus, and many
6:35 am
restaurants here in the downtown walnut creek area have remained open with dining, with takeout and delivery. it has to be seen if they're going to reopen for in-house dining. at this point it depends on what the counties say and despite governor newsom's restrictions counties ordered many stores and nonessential businesses to remain closed because they wanted people to stay home and not increase community spread. the reopening of the bay area hinges on several key indicators. "the chronicle" compared contra costa, marin and santa clara in order to enter phase two, each must see a decrease in hospitalizations. they must have 200 people out of every 100,000, increased tracer staffing and a 30-day supply of ppe. the problem spots, the last three indicators none of the counties have met testing goals, tracing staff or ppe supplies. many restaurants we talked to
6:36 am
says it would be too difficult to pay employees. >> i don't see anything positive to reopen with restrictions. >> there must be some tax break or some waiver on the property taxes or some relief. >> reporter: they hope they will listen to their stories and help successfully reopen restaurants and businesses. back here live governor newsom is expected to address these issues and talk to local counties about how to even further reduce to help out the businesses reopen. reporting live, i'm sharon katsuda, "today in the bay." >> bars and restaurant owners will be listening to the governor today. happening in southern california for a patient there who was
6:37 am
known as the zero patient for that area. greg garfield went to a hospital in march and spent over a month there in the hospital where he got pneumonia, his kidneys nailed, his lungs collapsed four times. doctors tell the "today" show he's a miracle. >> he's our 64-day miracle, patient zero leaving the hospital walking after going through the unimaginable. he came down with symptoms after a ski trip in the alps. >> hit hard by the decline in travelers, it's not clear how deep it hit. air travel, of course, just a
6:38 am
tiny fraction. may include suspending rent and fees. 13 of the largest transit agencies are concerned about their economy and what's going forward. last week they sent a joint letter to key congressional members that says funding from the c.a.r.e.s. act will just not be enough. bay area transit alone could lose more than a billion dollars by next year. a new round of stimulus money. janet napolitano wants to stop using the s.a.t. and a.c.t. as requirements for admissions to college. she submitted a request to suspend standardized tests and make a new one.
6:39 am
the board will vote on halting standardized tests next week. police in san francisco had to warn dozens of people to follow social distancing orders. involvesers informally warned 140 people to practice social distancing. nearly everyone put on notice xlind on the spot. kari, a day in the park may not be the case this morning. we've seen some light rain in the south bay. we are going to see some drier weather here, more clouds and that's going to keep our temperatures down today. we'll have a couple days of weather like this at times rain off and on.
6:40 am
then we warm up by the end of the week. mike, any issues popping up? >> we have wet roadways and a number of crashes. on the left side north 280 slows. that crash and debris has just cleared from the roadway. watch that intersection and the tri-valley we do see slowing. maybe a build. will eventually open up more and the restaurants, the controversy sharon has been talking about. a a smaller version. they have a larger one but
6:41 am
they've tested these out. they're for small groups to socially distance from one another. it looks like they're experimenting with how to get the food to the table. serving staff trying out shields. using planks to maintain distancing. more service, less contact. this is just an experiment in amsterdam. >> reporter: tesla has reopened its electric car factory in defiance of a county order. coming up the response from the health department. the president's lawyers face the supreme court today. the dow is up. the nasdaq is on a seven-day winning streak. >> did you get a puppy during the pandemic?
6:42 am
worried this could happen to you? what dog trainers are saying you should start doing right now. you're watching "today in the bay."
6:43 am
6:44 am
right now at 6:44 let's head outside in walnut creek. a lot of low clouds and then we may get some peeks of sunshine today but it will be cooler as some parts of the bay area gets a little bit of rain. i'll have more on this and the
6:45 am
rest of the micro climate forecast coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks, kari. new for you this morning one man is facing charges after police say that he punched a safeway employee and two others in fremont. so this all happened yesterday afternoon. police say the man you see here, marcell washington attacked a worker and took off on a bicycle. two other people hit in the face for no apparent reason. officers responded and for both theft and robbery. defying orders by alameda county to stay shut down. bob redell is outside of that plant. >> reporter: they say they notified tesla that it can only
6:46 am
maintain basic operations until a plan for its reopening is in place, an approved plan, which the county expected to receive last night. not clear if that happens. not clear if the company or ceo, elon musk, will suffer any consequences. in a tweet musk says he would be on the assembly line and seemed to dare authorities to arrest him for violating this order. musk reopened his plant after governor newsom lifted restrictions for manufacturing in the state. alameda county kept the restrictions in place. we spoke with supervisor scott haggerty. he says he is part of the conversations between tesla and the county's public health department. tesla agreed to do temperature checks on fremont workers before busting them in from all over the bay area. the plan was to open next week not yesterday. >> i wish elon would have waited one more week so we could have just done this in a methodical
6:47 am
fashion that put people back to work safely. >> reporter: tesla filed a lawsuit against alameda county making the argument the state order should supersede the county's order. musk also tweeted a threat to shut down his factory in fremont and headquarters in palo alto and move them out of state. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thanks for the latest there. state leaders say 17 people who died while incarcerated are going to have a prayer vigil for them in san francisco. i want to show you that video from l.a. county inside a jail there. the sheriff there says inmates are purposely trying to infect themselves. showing inmates they were sharing water and using the same
6:48 am
mask. 30 inmates later tested positive. two were released. the inmates believed being infected would be their ticket out of there. >> decision 2020 and now pushing supporters to vote by mail even though president trump says he doesn't trust it. urging voters to turn them in. the president said there would be fraud. governor newsom says they will get a mail-in ballot. the supreme court will hear from the president's lawyers who want to keep the president's financial records a secret. >> they want to squash a subpoena being released by a prosecutor from new york state, right, scott? >> exactly right. and then a second party and that
6:49 am
is an inquiry from congress. you have two inquiries. the indeed justice kavanaugh wrote a president who is concerned about an ongoing criminal investigation is almost inevitably going to do a worse job as president. now history is not on president trump's side. in the past the supreme court has ruled against presidents in somewhat similar cases forcing nixon to turn over tapes and a sexual harassment claim against bill clinton to go forward. the subpoenas aren't directed at him but at his bank and his accountant's firm. congress wants the documents as part of a broad investigation
6:50 am
into the president. the prosecutor is going to be a problem. he's looking into the alleged payoff of two women. you know the case well. rudy july igiuliani has said it happened. the president said the country was doing better than any other in testing. the whole event was overshadowed after a reporting from cbs asked the president, why is this a global competition to you if everyday americans are still losing their lives? he told the reporter to go ask china. >> sir, why are you saying that to me specifically? >> i'm telling you -- i'm not saying it specifically to anybody. i'm saying it to anybody who would ask a nasty question. please go ahead. >> tre danger that you
6:51 am
can cover the controversy and not cover policy. that was the most interesting. president trump himself walk out after that confrontation and then put the clip on his own twitter feed accusing the media of conspiring against him. in fact, he's tweeted about it three times and more than 25 other tweets or re-tweets in just the last two and a half hours. i am also tweeting and will be tweeting about dr. fauci this morning. find me on twitter @scott mcgrew. here is a follow-up. major league baseball could make a return. a proposal that the commissioner will present to the players today instead of 161 games. would be expanded from 10 to 14
6:52 am
teams. like how much players will be paid and, more importantly keeping them healthy. >> so you have a puppy during the pandemic and what happens when you go to work. other pets are getting too much attention right now and that could be a problem. look at this. i didn't do it. they left the house just for the afternoon. dog trainers are in so much demand, they say make a daily schedule time away, and even crate train them. >> good idea. >> have you all had a problem coming back home and seeing things destroyed? >> no. >> we crate trained early on. >> they're pretty well behaved.
6:53 am
>> we're all still at home so the anxiety hasn't happened yet. >> that's true. mine are sleeping in. the weather is inviting for sleeping in. >> we're seeing light rain moving through. we are going to have cooler temperatures which make it feel much more comfortable and we'll see in some sports some light showers passing by. we'll see more of that in the forecast tomorrow. you can see the clouds as we head over to campbell. some peeks of sunshine, mid to upper 60s today. here is a look at the storm system now to the north bringing some much-needed rain to far northern california where there is an extreme drought. we have a moderate to severe drought right now and so we're going to see at times some light
6:54 am
rain coming through. not enough to help make up for the drought conditions but it is good to have something to help at least replenish some of our vegetation, a little bit before we head into a dry period. even for tomorrow afternoon especially for the north bay we will have our chance of seeing at least more measurable rain with the possibility of getting anywhere from a quarter up to a half inch of rain but most of the bay area will get about a tent of an inch of rain or less. temperatures spike on friday as we get more sunshine. what are you watching right now, mike? kari, i'm watching a number of crashes popping up. look at the map overall.
6:55 am
still have debris blocking your fast lane. everything else is clearing. around the bay we've had slicker roadways and that may be the reason we're seeing these smaller crashes and for the fourth day in a row slowing through the tri-valley commute. back to you. happening now hair salons are back open across singapore. laundry services and pet supply stores are open. restrictions remain in place. coming up next on "today in the bay" we're going to talk rent control including rent crisis going on. the help that could be on the way for those trying to just make it in the bay.
6:56 am
6:57 am
