"today in the bay's" cierra johnson joins us live this morning with more on a couple of cases that are actually getting a lot of attention with health leaders, good morning, cierra. >> reporter: as the state begins phase two of reopening, there are growing concerns about local covid-19 outbreaks.

the first is linked to a winery in so noma county. three employees who work in production have tested positive. now both employees did not have direct contact with customers or visitors. that second outbreak is linked to a construction site. this according to "the mercury news. "they say 13 sites have at least one person testing positive for the virus. the largest exposure is at a construction site in mountain view with at least ten cases and as many as 30 people possibly exposed to the virus. now the bay area isn't alone in seeing a recent spike. this map illustrates states across the nation are seeing an influx of new covid cases with some states seeing as much as a 50% increase in recent numbers. they say the state will move forward with that reopening. >> a lot of folks were out and

about memorial day and you could see, again, the trend line remains remarkably stable. by no means does the past equal the future. >> reporter: and with so many states forging ahead with that reopening process researchers at the university of washington are actually predicting that covid-related deaths could reach as many as 200,000 people by the beginning of october. cierra johnson, "today in the bay." >> very concerning, thanks, cierra. here in the bay area there are now more than 17,000 confirmed cases. here's a look at the cases by county. nearly 500 people in the bay area have died. a new public testing site is opening in the south bay starting at 10:00 this morning people can walk up and get a free test in cupertino at creekside park. that's how i got mine, really easy. no appointment necessary. the site will be open through

backup. a live look shows you the cars are lining up and slowing down. no metering lights just yet. they'll probably be turned on in just seconds if not a couple minutes from now. the map shows you it's only at the toll plaza by the arrow where there's some slowing and the rest of the build not a problem for the commute. the traffic alert continues for almaden right by the clock. you see how small the commute area is. i'll show that to you coming up. back to you. >> thank you, mike. coming up more reopenings today in las vegas. next the crowd favorite bound to give you your fill. all those reopenings have driven retail sales up a lot and we expected that. but still wall street is excited about that and what the fed is doing. take a look at the futures market. these are the best on the open. ♪

good tuesday morning at 6:14. let's head outside in the south bay. if you're making plans to get outside at any point today and maybe go for a long walk, enjoy fresh air, we're going to see great weather today but it will heat up tomorrow. i'll talk about those hotter temperatures in the forecast coming up in a few minutes. and we're looking at the continued closure there, the continued investigation, san jose's pd closing southbound almaden expressway at redmond avenue. we'll talk you around the scene and talk about the rest of your build coming up. and good morning and a very happy tuesday to you. man, monday was really weird on the stock market.

they plunged at the open. stocks were down, the broader indices were down hundreds and hundreds of points. take a look at the final number. the dow gained 157 points. the nasdaq up big, about 1.5%. the dow swung nearly 1,000 points. what happened? the fed stepped in. the federal reserve said it would buy up corporate debt. now you can debate whether that's a good idea or not. the fed does plan to make money because the stock market was sinking or at least we certainly hope not. the federal reserve isn't supposed to care about the stock market. but even the biggest world experts are trying to figure out the timing on this. as luck would have it chairman jay powell has prescheduled testimony before congress this morning so we may find out. futures call for another strong open on wall street this morning. just got the first numbers on retail sales since the economy began to open up, and they're up

17%. president trump tweeting that's a record and of course it is. stores were closed and now they are open again. and you're going to get that 17% increase. whether or not that's a good number we really can't say because we've never had anything to compare it to. amazon says jeff bezos is willing to come to washington to testify before congress. that would be a first. the house in particular interested in what might be anti-competitive behavior by amazon. in particular amazon basics, and kris and laura, we talked about this earlier, amazon is accused of taking a look at the retail sales of various third parties, noticing something sells really well. "the wall street journal" points out if it sold well, amazon makes its own under the basic label and sells that instead. amazon claims it doesn't look at the sales data to figure it out.

there's some suspicion they really do. >> how could they not? that would be just bad business if they didn't do that. it will be interesting to see what jeff bezos says. >> it might be anti-competitive behavior if they did. >> true. >> that is true. all right, thank you very much, scott. 6:17 right now. the glitz and glamour, the gowns postponed for the fourth time in history. hollywood rescheduling the oscars. it was originally set for next february but now they're pushing it back to april 25th. the academy board is extending the eligibility window normally movies the previous year. it will be by the end of february due to recent production shutdown. that will be interesting to see. a famous sin city feature is returning, and be sure to pack your knife and fork to enjoy this one.

>> it will feature separated tables. you have to have a reservation. really i'm less worried about how close people are sitting next to me and we're all testing the same serving utensils out of a buffet. >> yeah, that would make sense. i think i'll just keep cooking at home and maybe barbecue by the end of the week, kari. it will be too hot to have the oven on. yeah, i know, it's going to be hot not only for the next couple of days and also extends into the weekend. we have one last nice cool day and that's today as we get a live look outside in morgan hill this morning, as the sun comes up, we're going to enjoy some of that milder weather. let's get a look at our high

temperatures because in morgan hill we're up to 79 degrees. milpitas will reach up to 74. we will see a few spots reaching the low 80s but for most of us this weather is actually a little bit cooler than normal. oakland will reach 71 today with danville reaching 80 and 82 degrees in pittsburg. we're going to see the fog rolling into the coast and that's going to keep it in the low 60s there. you head to redwood city where we reach into the low 70s today and san francisco will mostly stay in the upper 60s and for the north bay we're going to see highs in the upper 70s and low 80s and those winds still gusting today. so those winds also gave us an unusual cloud feature that we had over parts of the east bay. did you see this? this is a picture sent by courtney sullivan of those lenticular clouds. a lot of people over the east bay, especially over brentwood, saw them. winds in the

atmosphere, 18,000 feet, and we're seeing the winds gusting at 70 miles an hour and then it kind of forms like a pancake shape because it moves over the hill and starts to kind of stack in layers. that was amazing to see. usually i see them over the sierra. it's nice to see them in the bay area and probably the ingredients will come together for us to see them again today. temperatures going from the low 80s to the mid-90s by the middle of the week. so, yes, it will be really hot and also pretty warm as we welcome in summer officially this weekend. let's head over to mike and the traffic alert. kari, unfortunately, i have no update as far as the traffic flow goes. what kari is talking about, this video from overnight, this, unfortunately, is a deadl to be case southbound almaden expressway. the overturned vehicle there. we believe that's the only car involved in the deadly crash closing as we look at the map southbound almaden expressway at

redmond avenue. the map will also show you that you can take mcave, an easy, light drive. the bay bridge toll plaza despite the backup on the live camera we do not yet have metering lights. back to you. thank you very much, mike. 6:22 right now. coming up next on "today in the bay," ford is bringing back its bronco. one of the most popular models ever. up next why some, though, are calling the release date an odd >> i always want those. plus, nbc bay area responds. >> reporter: if you're still waiting on your stimulus payment, watch out. you might mistake it for junk mail. it looks like this. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, nbc bay area responds. ♪

>> reporter: good morning. eip, economic impact payment, and there are debit cards that look like this. uncle sam is sending these out to folks who didn't already get a check or direct deposit. they really can be confusing. the cards are arriving in plain white envelopes with instructions to call a 1-800 number for activation. lots of people told aarp they figured it was a scam. >> the reason i thought that primarily was because of its nondescript envelope, but then when they tried to activate the card they had to provide most of their social security number, six digits, and they're like, oh, no, aarp tells me not to do

that. >> reporter: it's not a scam but you can certainly see why many people might think it is. also the cards come with a caveat, fees. tonight at 11:00 we're digging into where that money is going and how you can avoid those fees release date of july 9th. that happens to be o.j. simpson's 75th birthday. ford is not commenting since there was a police chase shortly after the murder of his wife nicole brown simpson and ron goldman. two years later the bronco was discontinued. that is not good. 6:26 right now. coming up next, the push for police reform. the new tactics local police agencies are considering. and the fight over the pride flag at an east bay farmers market going viral this morning. up next the backlash after the woman in charge there put the brakes on the flag being handed out and the reason she gives for

not bad at all as we see our temperatures that will reach into the 70s for most of us in the inland areas. a few spots will reach the low 80s. we'll talk about the 90s in the forecast coming up in a few minutes and, mike, you've been watching that traffic alert. i have, kari. right now we'll focus on what's affecting the most number of drivers and that would be the bay bridge toll plaza with a live look here. we'll start with the metering lights which were just turned on at 6:22. the drivers are stack up. a lighter volume this is a tuesday. the traffic alert affecting the almaden expressway. we'll update you on that coming up. 6:31. oakland councilmembers will debate police reform in the wake of recent national outrage. the council is scheduled to discuss two proposals. one is a zero tolerance policy

for racist practices not only in opd but all city departments. the other is a resolution to support the justice in policing act, that's the new federal legislation to hold local law enforcement more accountable and improve transparency and reform police training. also one contra costa county city will consider possible police reform and another city is looking at its police department's response to the recent protests. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live in walnut creek with a preview of that. good morning to you, bob. >> reporter: tonight the walnut creek city council will look at how its police department behind me handled the initial black lives matters protest as well as the looting here in the downtown. the city council will be receiving a report on how the police responded to the vandalism, the looting, and the various demonstrations that took place between may 30th and june 5th. at least one protest spilled out onto highway 680 and included tear gas and an attack by a

police dog. one saw hundreds of people looting downtown. also tonight in antioch that city will reform ad hoc committee. if approved they could make recommendations that would prevent excessive use of force and de-escalate conflicts. california's already moving in that direction. state attorney general xavier becerra says all departments will be required to make some changes by january. he's hoping the police departments will put these changes in place sooner. the reforms mostly fall in line with the eight can't wait campaign that includes departments require officers to intervene if there is excessive use of force, ban shooting at moving vehicles, ban the use of chokeholds and require de-escalation. becerra is also urging lawmakers to pass legislation allowing states to decertify police officers accused of serious misconduct. reporting live in walnut creek, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thank you, bob.

6:33. tonight two san francisco leaders plan to sit down at manny's to discuss the black lives matter movement and nationwide protests. sfpd chief bill scott and district attorney chesa boudin plan to take part in a virtual discussion in how the city can move forward. it will get under way at 6:00 on the manny's facebook page. emotion will be very high, no doubt, in one butte county courtroom where pg&e will plead guilty to 84 felony manslaughter counts tied to the firestorm in paradise a year and a half ago. pg&e agreed to that deal, faulty electrical gear sparked the fire. the utility agrees to pay a $3.5 million fine and cover the cost of the investigation. the hearing will include the names and the photos of each victim who died. surviving family members also scheduled to make statements. that hearing will be streamed online. we are learning more this morning about video which

appears to show the director of the california farmers market association telling a vendor not to hand out pride flags. >> my job is to run the market, not to satisfy your political point of view. >> now this happened at livermore's farmers' market. gail hayden serves as the california farmers market director. her daughter and cfma senior market manager says vendors can only hand out petitions or fliers in a sanctioned free speech zone. she claims children were using the flags to have sword fights. dan floyd feels like he and the lgbtq community were targeted. >> little kids were poking each other with them, using them as swords. >> definitely felt like the flags and what they represent were the target of her tirade. >> hayden's daughter says she apologizes for floyd feeling

that the numbers of travelers are way down. "the mercury news" r passed through the airport. compare that to last year when more than a million travelers used the airport. that's a 97% drop. don't forget your facemask if you do fly. all airlines are requiring them. although we live in one of the most gorgeous places on earth, people love to visit here and our morning is starting out quite nicely, kari. yes. we see the temperatures starting out cool this morning even as we get a live look outside in dublin, one of the spots that can sometimes heat up but not today. we're looking at highs in the upper 70s. right now we're at 55 degrees in livermore. 57 in san jose and also 57 in concord. and a really nice day to go out for a hike. enjoy extra time as our temperatures in the east bay warm up to the upper 70s. we'll talk about hotter weather in the forecast coming up.

mike, you've been watching the morning commute. i have, kari. in the south bay i told you we'd take a look at the live action there, almaden expressway. we still have a police vehicle there blocking southbound almaden expressway at redmond because of an overnight deadly crash there, but we don't see -- or a different vehicle. as we look at the map we're still showing the work around down to camden and then slowing shows up as people join back up with southbound almaden expressway and the bay bridge toll plaza. >> still ahead on "today in the bay," the work under way to contain the flames and how it's impacting an iconic stretch of highway. some political trouble for president trump after yesterday's supreme court decisions.

right now we get a live look outside in the south bay, we're starting out with sunshine and plans to get out and enjoy it. a really nice day. we'll talk about this and a heatup in the forecast coming up.

the san mateo bridge moves smoothly, the volume building. look at all that sunshine kari is talking about. the bay bridge has more of a backup with the mealeritering l on. a person is dead and another in custody after a deadly chain reaction crash. this happened just before midnight on highway 85 at the union street underpass. first responders say four cars were involved. video shows the chp leading the driver away in handcuffs after a field sobriety test. no word if that driver was charged. new video of a fast growing wildfire burning along the central coast. this is a brush fire that just started at 3:00 yesterday afternoon. cal fire says the fire is now threatening 100 homes. some people had to leave their homes. the fire has burned more than 400 acres and is only 10% contained.

to the covid-19 crisis and as california begins to enter this new phase of reopening businesses there are new concerns this morning as cases continue to surge. i want to check in with "today in the bay's" cierra johnson with a look at two outbreaks now certainly getting the attention of health leaders. cierra? >> reporter: as the state begins to enter phase 2b allowing for some modified outdoor dining as well as some indoor shopping, growing concerns in the bay area of some localized outbreaks. now that first outbreak is linked to a winery in sonoma county. the outbreak is at an undisclosed winery. three people who work for covid. they did not have direct contact with customers. the second linked to a

construction site. health officials face 13 sites, have one person testing positive for the virus. the largest exposure is in mountain view with at least ten cases and as many as 30 people exposed to that covid virus. an increase from the recent numbers. th they will move forward with the reopening. >> people were out and about on memorial day and you can see the trend line remains remarkably stable but by no means does the past equal the future. >> reporter: with so many states forging ahead with that reopen researchers at the university of

washington are predicting as early as the beginning of october we could see as many as. developing right now state and fbi agents are investigating the recent deaths of two black men in southern california. two public places ten days apart, 50 miles apart. outrage is forcing them to take a second look at both cases. >> we want truth, we want answers. we demand answers now. >> we had a plan to see each other. >> you also heard from malcolm's brother who says his brother was not suicidal.

a win for lgbtq rights could hurt donald trump's standing among conservatives. >> scott mcgrew, this was a historic decision by the supreme court. and it rested on president trump's first pick for the supreme court. as you know the court ruled businesses can't discriminate against members of the lgbtq community in a landmark case. that wasn't the only thing where conservatives had a setback. the court decided not to take cases involving the second amendment. that upholds the lower court decision ruled in california. appointee neil gorsuch ruling with the liberal side of the bench on the question of discrimination that got the most attention. his reasoning is spelled out in his brief. i won't go into that. but it did make a lot of

prominent conservatives ask tough questions. there are many conservatives who disagree with some of president trump's policies or his behavior but support him because he's able to put conservatives on the supreme court bench. one writes the ruling suggests the supreme court majority sought for so long by right-wing legal activists may not be quite as reliable as it seems and their moral and ethical sacrifices to pursue it may have been in vain. when asked about the decision, president trump said the courts ruled and we will live with it. president trump is expected to unveil police executive order today. he can't order police departments to reform. he doesn't have that power but can withhold federal funding and oftentimes that has the same effect. we'll be watching for that and then we'll report do so on

twitter. you know where to find me on twitter. i'm @scottmcgrew. thank you very much, scott. former president barack obama is ramping up his efforts to get joe biden into the white house. the two are holding a virtual fund-raiser next week, their first appearance together since obama endorsed biden. in the meantime the biden campaign and the democratic party raised more than $80 million in may, the highest amount so far. president trump's campaign and the national republican party has been outfund-raising biden for months. hello dolly. more confederate statues are torn down across the country, one group wants to replace them in tennessee everyone loves there, dolly parton. a change.org petition and nearly 9,000 people have already signed it. according to a confederate
