very quickly those symptoms escalated and he became incapacitated. >> once it's determined that it's a possible fentanyl call, we have to treat it just as we do with all other infectious diseases or chemicals. we have to wear proper equipment, otherwise we become a victim. >> reporter: the hazardous materials team from the mill valley fire department was called in to help decontaminate the cars and to treat some of those who were potentially exposed. right now chp investigators believe their officers suffered the effects of fentanyl or some other type of opioid, in part because the man in the car did react very quickly to the narcan, as did the first responders involved. now, the person driving has since been booked into the san francisco jail facing charges of dui and possession of a controlled substance. now, everyone involved in this who has been treated and taken

to the hospital, they've all since been released. reporting live in san francisco, i'm sergio quintana, nbc bay area news. >> sergio, thanks very much. president trump continued his swing through nevada this weekend before heading to northern california tomorrow. tonight he spoke to an enthusiastic crowd just outside of las vegas in henderson. it's his first indoor rally in three months, drawing criticism from health leaders. the president's speech was very similar to a speech delivered in minim minden, nevada last night, talking about jobs and law and order. he also railed on joe biden and the democratic party, calling them radical. >> if i'm elected, his radical supporters won't just be causing mayhem in the streets, they'll be running the department of justice, the department of homeland security, and by the way, the united states supreme court. >> it's been a turbulent week for the president's campaign following the release of audio where he admits to downplaying the seriousness of the

coronavirus. the president heads to the sacramento area tomorrow for a breaching on california's many wildfires. in 2018 and recently, he's been blaming the firefighters on mismanagement. tomorrow nbc will interview bob woodward who recorded 17 on-the-record conversations with president trump. in one the president downplayed the seriousness of coronavirus to avoid a panic. woodward will also unveil a brand new recording. that's tomorrow morning on "today." joe biden is getting a big boost in florida from michael bloomberg. bloomberg says he'll spend $100 million in florida to help biden win the state. the money will reportedly be spent on a mix of television and digital ads in english and in spanish. bloomberg spent more than $400 million on his own presidential campaign, and since dropping out, has sent 18 million to the democratic national committee.

biden's campaign isn't the only one the former new york city mayor is helping out. raj mathai sat down with a one-on-one interview with vice president nominee kamala harris this weekend. he talked about president trump and the fires that ravaged california. tiktok appears to have settled on a buyer for its u.s. operations. orically wacle won the bid. microsoft said it had not been chosen by tiktok's parent company. the movement came before the order by president trump that tiktok sell its business or be banned. scott budman puts this in perspective for us. >> here's what we know for sure. tiktok is one of the hottest media companies in the world right now. its popularity has only grown during the pandemic as people

have looked for new ways to stream and reach out to each other. there are some positives. oracle has a lot of money. it can buy tiktok, leave it independent with a big bank account and let the tiktokers go wild and have a good time while oracle collects the ad revenue. on the other hand, there is the chinese government concern versus our government. oracle is a big company. many a big company has had relationships with the government and has made small companies uncool. there are rumors here that oracle founder larry ellison is number one in the running now for tiktok because he is a backer of president donald trump. either way the u.s. government saying tiktok has to be sold to an american company or else it would get rid of it, and that would be terrible for tiktokers, so there are many ways for tiktok to become uncool. the only way, really, for it to stay cool and hip is for a company to buy it here in the u.s. and let it remain tiktok. we'll keep you posted.

b.a.r.t. stations are back on line tonight after a computer issue shut all trains down this morning, leaving thousands of people stranded. mary ann favro is in l.a. with what caused the shutdown and what commuters can expect tomorrow. >> reporter: trains are back running tonight. a b.a.r.t. spokesman said the computer that shut down all of its stations this morning will not be a problem for commuters tomorrow. when alton guirera richmond came to the gate, he thought he would be jumping on a train. >> it's unfortunate. >> reporter: at this embarcadero station in san francisco, people sat on stairs instead of on trains this morning. a computer issue forced every single b.a.r.t. station to shut down this morning. >> it was tied to one hardware

device that is out in the field, sk and so when that device failed, the whole system is designed to go into a fail-safe mode to make sure everyone is safe. so we weren't able to operate trains. >> reporter: buses drove some passengers to their destinations but many were left to figure out their own way home. >> it's a little frustrating, but at the end of the day, i'll probably just call a $50 uber and get home. >> reporter: shortly in the afternoon, batte.a.r.t. was abl restore service to all trains. as b.a.r.t. prepares service on three of its five lines tomorrow, jim ellison said the agency has learned from today's issue and are taking steps to make sure ited is that our engineers have been able to implement a new configuration change to the network which is expected to protect against one device if it fails shutting down the entire system. >> reporter: in san jose, mary

in minnesota, the vikings honored george floyd. the team stood arm in arm for floyd, who died in the custody of minneapolis police. members of floyd's family were also at the game for what was called a moment of unity. football always brings with it feelings for a number of fans, and today some normalcy. jackie ward scoped out the scene across the city to show us how fans were celebrating. >> i don't know if people understand about this pandemic thing, so we'll do our best over here. >> reporter: niners fans, raiders fans and football fans in general packed the bars. this season ticket holder said this was the next best place to be since he couldn't be at levi's. >> opening day you get the food ready, you get the whole gang ready. we can't do that, but at least we're still together and we're all healthy. >> reporter: key pub management had some rules if you wanted to

sit and watch the game. no more than six people per table, wear a mask when you're not eating or drinking, and try to stay six feet away from members of your party. >> they're pretty cool. they told us how to act during the game, and people were very nice people. they understand that we work together. >> reporter: smoke was still visible all over the city, but for this niners fan, he said the situation improved just enough to make him feel comfortable sitting outside for a few hours. >> the air quality is much better now, so overall, i think it's a better day to enjoy the game. >> reporter: and for these raiders fans, it was important for them to don their silver and black, even though losing their team to las vegas still stinks. >> it feels different. i used to be a season ticket holder in 2014, and it was one of the things waking up in the morning, not doing our regular thing, me and our friends tailgating. it's 2020 with corona.

what can we do now? >> it's heartbreaking seeing the lv on the screen. >> reporter: kwhile key pub ownr said it was nowhere near what it's usually like at home games, he said he was good to see people out. very strange sight. everybody is there except for the fans. no fans. the players, coaches and officials. the only people inside were security guards, essential workers and that man, sourdough sam, the mas cscot. he's got his mask on. there is a debate whether people should be able to drink alcohol on half moon beaches. a year ago they decided to include city beaches as designated parks. what they didn't realize is that meant an alcohol ban on the beaches. when city leaders tried to change the ordinance to allow

alcohol again, someone questioned if drinking on the beach was a good idea in the first place. this week they're asking people to weigh in. this comes as half moon bay has been dealing with especially crowded weekend during the pandemic and the recent heat wave. okay, it's been really tough with the air quality for the past few weeks. it feels like, though, today we got a little bit of relief, rob. hopefully we're not being deceived. >> yeah, just a little hint of hope out there. the wind picked up a little bit mid-afternoon, but the problem is there's still so much smoke. for a time midday we actually had more smoke trying to import its way in from the south and the east. the wind remains a very complex part of the forecast. right now there is not enough of it to export out the bad air we still have. it's 66 degrees currently in walnut creek. you see the hazy skies there. dublin, 82 degrees. san jose, a lot of morning clouds to start the morning off. 70s downtown. currently 62.

more low clouds likely to fill in for the santa clara valley in the morning. it's now what we've seen for four weeks right across the board here for air quality. spare the air again for monday. numbers have technically come down. keep in mind, a spare the air day is an aqi of 100. whether or not we see another one issued for tuesday even as these numbers come down, that's the reason we're saying stay tuned. it's going to take some work to keep the smoke out of the bay area. 64 in san jose. areas of low cloud and fog and maybe some mist and drizzle. we could see a hint of that on the futurecast around fremont, union city on the coast near half moon bay and san francisco as we start the day. tomorrow's highs once again in the 70s. san jose a lot more low clouds to start out the day. we could see that on the pass tomorrow morning, so plan on that if you have any travel

plans for the morning. mid-80s, 60s from san francisco down the coast. one of the changes we saw was a little bit of a breeze trying to pick up. you see the wind through fairfield, 23 miles per hour. we transition to the upper air smoke. this is going to take us through monday. keep in mind it is a spare the air day tomorrow. there is a bit of a trend taking shape for the north bay tomorrow night. we begin to see that smoke clearing for part of the north bay, but that's 1:00 a.m. tuesday. we still need those winds to pick up, and they will as we get to tuesday around the bay area. the problem is the wind to help clear the smoke means dry and dusky conditions near the north end fire.tter. that storm system by friday approaches the coast. here's the good news, for

washington and oregon, it looks like significant rainfall for those fires north of the border there, and possibly a chance we could see something here friday and saturday. finally after a month of bad weather forecast for you, just nothing but doom and gloom, there is a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel there. a chance to see some rain early on saturday. as we go through the weekend as the system moves out, we'll see high pressure building in, we'll turn warmer and we'll have to see if that involves a bit of a north wind. our intentiattention certainly air quality. tomorrow another spare the air conditions. on tuesday we're looking at moderate but sensitive air quality. the wind picks up, and we should finally catch a break as the showers pass to the north. and next weekend we could see a turn of the winds out of the north. not as strong as everything that started early this week which really kickstarted the fires in the northwest.

just a slight chance of showers passes by and then high pressure builds in behind it. it's a classic pattern as we approach the start of fall coming up in another week or so, but these systems tend to bring wind at times. we'll be watching that next weekend, but for now we're counting down the wind to hopefully bring some air quality into the moderate range fort midd -- for the middle part of the week. >> rob, thank you. tomorrow is a long day to wait for in san francisco as some doors are able to open. we'll tell you what is opening when we come back.

hotels as newerism tourism in t has taken a massive hit. they relisd guidelines feased g reopening, and that's encouraging folks to take the stairs rather than be trapped in elevators, and they're requiring rooms to be cleaned every single day. in alameda county, they're going to start theatrical performan s performances. we've seen a lot of graduation ceremonies and religious services. you'll also be able to preorder food and other goods for pickup at these events. eight families of farm workers are out of their homes after another fire flared up in sonoma county. a volunteer group picked up donations for those families who live in hillsburg.

they are currently staying in hotels, but volunteers took donations for food and other supplies. two of the families are battling coronavirus. the group met in oakland to collect the goods and then headed to hillsburg to give out the donations to those families. we know this nfl season will be unlike any we have ever seen, and just think how the players are dealing with this. we'll take you inside the locker room for an exclusive look at what teams are doing while dealing with the pandemic.

cleveland browns. h hallowed ground changed, perhaps, forever. the team's senior vp player of health and development takes us on an exclusive tour. >> we really have a new normal, right? our day-to-day process is unlike anything we've ever done in the past. >> reporter: nfl facilities now ruled by a new set of protocols to reduce the risk of covid-19. everyone, players and staff, tested daily. >> i'm still looking for two people that need to be tested. >> reporter: dr. alan sills is the nfl's chief medical doctor. >> we've done over a million covid-19 tests of staff and personnel. >> reporter: game day bravado now socially distanced. >> you installed plexiglass. you spaced lockers out six feet apart. a room that once housed 90 now

houses 40 in an overflow locker room. it's entirely different than our players have ever done. >> reporter: still, some 60 players decided to opt out playing this season due to the pandemic. the president of the players association, j.c. twitter, says everyone wants to play safe. >> we worked tirelessly this off season of trying to find a way to open up and open back up safely. >> reporter: cutting edge technical changes, too. locker rooms fitted with ultraviolet lights to further sanitize equipment. >> everyone in our building gets one of these devices. >> new safe zone tags which flash red within six feet of someone else and record who you meet. so if someone tests positive -- >> we can find that person and all the close contacts to that person. >> reporter: immediately. >> immediately. in realtime. >> reporter: and the helmets? all fitted with new plastic shields that act just like a cloth face mark. >> the goal is to really limit

the transmission of respiratory droplets while guys are on the field of play. >> reporter: while all the precautions and protocols are in place, no one really knows what's going to happen until the players line up across from each other on the field. while here in cleveland, there may be some fans, others will be empty, without the roar of the crowd. >> it will definitely be weird, but we're excited to get out there and play. >> reporter: even before kickoff, nfl teams are working together to tackle a common component: covid. >> we all want to make the best sdi decisions to give us the best chance to play football. >> reporter: and state of say s. >> and stay safe. why are some people getting parking tickets when they're parking in the same place they always have? we investigate next.

hey, my twitter is blowing up! dear jack box, bring back the spicy chicken strips, still waiting for the spicy chicken strips, so many about spicy chicken strips. wow, i hear you. so i'm bringing back my juicy 100% all-white meat spicy chicken strips combo for only $5.99! an army family who is always at the ready. so when they got a little surprise... two!? ...they didn't panic. they got a bigger car for their soon-to-be-bigger family. after shopping around for insurance, they called usaa - who helped find the right coverage for them and even some much-needed savings. that was the easy part. usaa insurance is made the way liz and mike need it-

the air quality still an issue but not bad enough to keep the 49ers off the field. thanks so much for joining us. i'm narush offstef. if you're just joining us, we are off the first football game of the season. look at the toll the wildfires are taking in northern california. here's how the fires looked one year ago, and this is what it actually looked like yesterday. look at all that smoke covering the entire state. rob mayeda joining us now to talk about how bad it is, but it's going to get better at some point. >> yeah, you know, we keep telling ourselves the wind is coming, it's going to help, and all these forecasts depend on seeing the wildfires that we do have not doing anything unexpected or seeing flare-ups or new fires started. and we had a little case of more smoke today actually being imported back to the south and

the east. that is the sqf complex fire that flared up big time, sending smoke into the sacramento valley and the nq area, and some of that did spill into the south bay with fog. as we work to see upper level winds go east tomorrow, we're still left with a lot of folks trapped in the bay area. spare the air level of 100, soo we're still at 193 in san francisco, 164 in san jose, and even though the numbers do come down at least a little bit tomorrow, everybody is still in that red unhealthy range, which means we're still above 150, which we think will begin to help us in terms of exporting out all t courtesy of the storm system now starting to approaching the west coast, which for some of the west coast will bring actually some rainfall for places like oregon and washington. some of that may try to get a little bit closer to northern california. later this week we'll explain that and how it could impact

things in terms of wind, and our temperatures and air qualities for the week. we'll have a look at that in the forecast coming up in about 12 minutes from now. back to you. >> thank you, rob. following up on that breaking news we told you about last night at 11:00, two l.a. county sheriff's deputies are out of surgery and expected to survive after a gunman ambushed them while they were sitting in their patrol car. we do want to warn you that some of the images you're about to see may be disturbing. this surveillance video shows the sole gunman opening fire while the deputies were watching a train station in compton. the shooter running away, and at this point has not been found. community leaders are urging calm. >> my heart is heavy when there is senseless violence like this. my heart is heavy. so we need peace. >> the deputies are 31-year-old female and 24-year-old male both sworn in 14 months ago. there is a $100,000 reward for information about that suspect. recapping some of our top

stories, several officers taken to the hospital because of what they found inside a car. police say they got a call about a possible drunk driver on the golden gate bridge. this is right around noon today. when they got there, they found a man unconscious. they gave him narcan which helps reverse an opioid overdose. the man regained consciousness, but that is when one officer became ill and unresponsive himself, then other officers started experiencing the same symptoms. they were all rushed to the hospital. they're all expected to be okay. when the hazmat team arrived, they found a bag of white powder in the man's car believed to be fentanyl. he was arrested for a dui and having a controlled substance, and all seven people were potentially exposed. a systemwide computer problem stranded thousands of b.a.r.t. riders this morning. b.a.r.t. announced the glitch at 8:00 in the morning, and it took more than four hours to straighten everything out. in the interim, a lot of confusion, though, as some passengers were shuffled from one closed station to the next. >> i showed up to san jose

b.a.r.t. at barryessa, and they shut down, apparently. they told me the computers were down at 8:00 this morning. now i'm over here. they gave us a free transfer ride because this station was supposed to be up and running. now i'm here and it doesn't look like it's running, so i'm going to have to find a way to get home. >> the major shutdown comes just a day before b.a.r.t. is due to add more trains to several lines during peak commute times. more riders are returning to b.a.r.t. so longer trains will run more frequently to keep up with the demand. by coincidence, our digital series "all about b.a.r.t." just dropped another season. it looks like how we're taking care of covid, a financial crisis and a merajor reckoning. our writer spent months wriridi on the trains amidst a covid crisis. here's a preview. >> you know the age-old question

about a tree in the woods, the one that falls when no one is around? does it actually make a sound? so much of how we experience a but what happens when the normal sounds, the normal crowds aren't there anymore? new sounds chime in. it's like this whole time this weird orchestra was playing that we just couldn't hear over all that other noise. the shuffling of shoes, dancing keys, someone a little off key. ♪ >> actually, that's not so bad. so does a train make a sound if there is no one at the station to hear it?

who's to say? but maybe the bigger question is, when is everyone coming back to b.a.r.t.? will they come back? >> you can watch season 2 of "derailed" on a variety of platforms. it's on nbc.com, apple tv or youtube. a group of neighbors in san mateo are demanding an explanation after they say the city randomly started fining them for parking the same way they've been park forg yeaing f. we spoke to a long-time resident who said this is the last thing they need right now during a pandemic. for years in this san mateo neighborhood, residents have parked on the sidewalk like this, because they say the street is too narrow and they live on a hill. >> specifically where i live, we live on a blind corner, so people come pretty fast down the hill, even though we're a one-block-long street. so we have to park in a little

bit so we don't get hit. >> reporter: in all these years, she tells us she and her neighbors never had a problem doing it this way. >> well, we've lived here over 37 years. moved in in may of 1983, so almost 17.5 years, and we've never, ever, ever had an issue with parking, with tickets. >> reporter: until now when suddenly they're seeing a lot of parking tickets. neighbors have complained to the police department and the mayor, arguing that getting a ticket for parking on the sidewalk like this is unfair because there are no other options, and parking has not been enforced in the past. they're also upset that now that it is being enforced, they never got a proper warning ahead of time. >> i would encourage anybody who feels that they were unjustly cited to make sure they appeal that ticket and talk to the police department about steps that they can take. >> reporter: san mateo mayor claims that the reason parking rules are being enforced now is that the city were being bombarded by complaints with other neighbors, frustrated that

no one was parking legally. >> it's true that in many neighborhoods they haven't seen a lot of enforcement in the past because police officers are very busy doing other things. >> reporter: the mayor explains when they started hearing from angry neighbors, the city decided to hire an outside company called circo to start enforcing the rules. but when the pandemic hit and people started working from home and leaving their cars there, too, mathe mayor said they aske circo to suspend action for a while. but they said that's not happening. >> getting two tickets at $45 each while we're standing there, working our way, staying home, being safe, dealing with covid. this is not what we needed right now. >> reporter: because circo has written so many tickets, the ci city council is planning to look

at this in their next meeting in october. turning to our coverage on the coronavirus, there are now more than 93,000 cases, more than a thousand deaths in the bay area. alameda county saw the biggest increase and is reporting more than 154 cases since yesterday, contra costa county at 48. marin saw a slight increase. it added 14 new cases. now to the east coast where people in new orleans are preparing for a possible hurricane. it comes as tropical storm sally gains strength in the gulf of mexico. you can see people filling sandbags to protect their homes from flooding. the storm is slow moving, still far away, but locals say they are prepared and they are preparing early because hurricane katrina which devastated the area 15 years alleago still fresh in their minds. >> we're nervous because we had hurricane katrina and a storm is always nervewracking a little

bit. >> reporter: sally could come to shore as early as tuesday as a category 2 hurricane. big 10 officials are back at the bargaining table rethinking their decision to pause games during the pandemic. as kathy parks reports, it comes as more campus outbreaks cause chaos nationwide. >> reporter: this weekend schools across the country making headlines for the wrong reasons. during saturday's home opener, florida state university, the tailgating policy moved off campus. the stadium was packed at 25% capacity, but these images show fans shoulder to shoulder. after at least 242 people affiliated with new york state university tested positive for the virus in the last three weeks, health officials asked all students to self-quarantine. with some football programs kicking off for the 2020 season, there is growing pressure for the big 10 to follow. officials are meeting today, but a vote on return to play may

nfl players had a tough choice to make. play the season under extreme covid restrictions or sit out the entire year. >> former 49ers wide receiver marquis goodwin who is now with the philadelphia eagles decided not to play. his reason was simple. his family. >> this right here, this is my reason, y'all. she is the reason i'm opting out for the season. >> our baby girl maray is five months and growing like a weed. >> yes, she is. >> our journey of parenthood was

very tough. it was a long road. >> we had to do an emergency surgery which didn't hold, and needless to say, we ended up losing the baby. i feel like i had to prove to my coaches and new team that i was dedicated to win and i wouldn't let anything keep me from that goal, even my family. >> he ended up scoring his first touchdown of the season. the team won their first game. >> i had to make a decision. again, we held the baby for pictures, videos and thought, man, they look like me.

they have my features. they have my finger nails. they survived for an hour before their hearts just stopped. >> hey, you coming out today? you coming out today? >> we finally were blessed to bring home our first living child, our rainbow baby. it's a girl. >> we went through a storm. just being fortunate enough to bring her home, it was like that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. she's our pot of gold and she's our rainbow. >> she's going to be putting makeup on him. he's going to be playing dress-up with her. he's the type of father where he's going to give her the world. >> i want to be the best father figure and father the world has ever seen, because i want to be everything that i didn't have. >> it wasn't surprising because of what we've been through, so i knew if he did get that option to opt out, he was going to take that option. >> starting with a new franchise

this off season from san francisco to the philadelphia eagles. my coach tested positive for the virus. i'm like, dang, because he would have been the first person's hand that i shook, probably gave a hug to. it makes me even more grateful that i chose to stay home. if i played this year, leaving my family at home without having them there with me, i would not be worth a damn on the field. probably wouldn't even be able to catch a cold naked, wet, in december in philly. i love football. i lo i love the team. but i love my family more than the two of them put together. i was offered a full scholarship at the university of texas in austin and walked on the team and won a football scholarship within two days. >> he's champion and winner of

the olympic trials. >> i went to the olympics in 2012. that's the best sporting experience i've ever had in my life. i start trying new food, i started dressing different, i started trying to develop an accent because i was around so many accents. it sparked my mind in that opening ceremony i became a new person. following that, in 2013, i ended up getting drafted by the buffalo bills, 78th pick overall. here i am, not even supposed to be playing football. i'm getting drafted. that was a huge blessing in my life. it gave me is to many opportunities that i could help my family. i look forward to the season, though. i definitely will be watching and i'll be supporting, and especially my eagles. you see, i got my hat on right now. it's going to be crazy watching it on the tube. >> it's not for everybody to understand. >> say something to the camera. >> our journey is not everybody else's journey, and you

ultimately have to be proud of the decision you make and not let other people affect your decision. >> faith number one, then my family, then football. in that order. i won't change for nobody. >> marquis goodwin, what a story. larry, let's check in with rob mayeda. really the lead story tonight. the air, so filthy. going to be cleaning out, rob. >> yeah, you know, the fan is starting to turn on, but there's just so much smoke trapped in the bay area from all these wildfires, and for a time today we actually had a little more smoke being imported in from the south today. let's look at what's happening this hour. temperatures have cooled down. as you can see, we're in the 50s and 60s, but a temperature change start to go shing show a hi hint of some cooling. it's hazy and in some cases we

have patchy fog setting up. fairfield at 20 miles per hour. kind of like leaving a fan on with a lot of smoke. it's going to take more than a few hours to get the smoke out of here. we're really talking 24 to 36 hours. as you can see, the air quality still unhealthy across the board. up to 193 in san francisco, 164 in san diego. you saw the cardinals playing in le levi's stadium. if it got very unhealthy, that game might not have happened. another spare the air day with those numbers still above 150. keep in mind if they come down to 100 to 150, let's say, on tuesday, we might see another spare the air day. the threshold on 100 to declare a spare the air day. so tuesday might be a transition for us. notice in the morning, lots of low clouds. some mist or drizzle will be possible even around the inner

day fort morning, and more hazy sunshine for the afternoon. low to mid-80s for the tri valley. morgan hill mid-60s from san francisco to oakland. this really has been the story of a better part of this air pollution episode we've been in. high pressure keeping a lid over the bay area. now the winds are starting to pick up. now let's fast-forward 24 to 36 hours. better look at the as monttmosp. in the north bay, we begin to see the wind shift enough to help out there as we head into early tuesday morning. for the rest of the bay area, it's probably going to take tuesday night into wednesday before we start to improve. southwest winds across the northwest complex, northeast of or criminrville orrville. we have wind warnings on wednesday. we'll see that in northeasttomo.

the system that's bringing the better air quality may bring the extra bonus of some showers. for parts of northern california some actual real rain for oregon and western washington. that is the good news as we head towards the weekend. that would be a welcome sight, helping clear the skies, maybe bringing that much rain to eureka. as we move into friday, some warming. we could see an east wind, maybe not as strong, but we should watch that for this weekend. temperatures climbing in san francisco mid-week. we think wednesday and friday will be probably the best air quality we'll have, and as we head toward next weekend, temperatures start to climb on up, and we'll have to watch that sunday forecast to see if the winds turn north again. this is a typical late summer to early fall pattern that we're seeing. as the onshore wind picks up, the low moves out. could see the north wind return a little bit next weekend, so

not only would that bring our temperature up, we have to watch our smoke make a run to the south once again. very complex day-to-day changes in the wind. we'll keep an eye on the air quality as we go through the week. back to you. >> rob, thanks a lot. it's not the way the 49ers envisioned starting their season. anthony flores joins us again with highlights and reaction, next. plus, san francisco will st it )s next phase of reopening. the businesses anxiously awaiting to reopen indoor services . join us monday from fire tirfighters are trying get the upper hand. wildfires exploding across our state. businesses anxiously waiting to reopen indoor services.

it would stay that way until the 4th. the 49ers take a 20-17 lead, but arizona would march right down the field. kevin drake goes in for a yard out. the 49ers could not answer in the final minutes, and the cardinals beat the 49ers 24-20. >> obviously not the way we wanted to start the season, but there were some positives to take out of this game. the consistency for our offense, i think, just needs to improve. >> that's how football goes. we had a number of chances to win that game. i thought we started out very well. last time we played these guys, it came down to the wire just like this one did. we had a chance there to win it at the end. we just came up a little bit short. >> reporter: next up the 49ers hit the road next sunday at the new york jets. first game ever for the las vegas raiders. takes a while to get used to after leaving oakland last season. chris mccaffrey gives the panthers the lead with the first

of two touchdowns in the game. in the third quarter, josh jacobs takes it in from seven yards out to give the raiders a 7-point lead. then the panthers would retake the lead. jacob with his first touchdown of the game. there were seven lead changes in this one. the raiders beat the panthers 34-30. the giants were back in action for the first time since the team announced that someone in the organization had tested positive for covid-19. so that led to two games being postponed. the giants said it was left fielder alex dickerson. now, he played today as the giants were swept in a doubleheader against the padres. the team says he tested positive on thursday, then was tested at least a half dozen times and all the results came back negative. today dickerson was emotional, calling out a report that he says is false that he broke protocol to see family, risking the health of his teammates and his wife, who is 39 weeks pregnant. >> that's something you can't really prepare for.

to deal with it is very stressful. i didn't sleep much. that's the year we're having and a lot of people have it very tough right now. it's just where you find out how to get through things. >> reporter: the a's in texas for the final of a four-game series with the rangers. bottom of the 6 scored not anymore. a three-run homer and the rangers go on to beat the a's, your final 4-1. to napa in the final round of the safeway open, gerald sync had it going. he won by twothony flores. let's get one more check of the record. >> the 7-day forecast will transition us into, we hope, better air quality tuesday and wednesday. that will be as the wind starts

to build and pick up. that will slowly start to move the smoke out with a chance of a few showers across areas of north mendocino county arriving on friday. >> i like transitions, rob. thanks very much. thanks for watching. we're back here in one hour, at 11:00. see you then. >> have a good night. ♪ ♪ try my $4 mini munchies with marinara or ranch. back at jack in the box.
