las vegas. records are set to be shattered across the west. portland expected to reach 115 degrees with temperatures in sin city expected to hike up to 107. just two of many places seeing that extreme heat. >> that's keeping local utilities paying close attention. as of now state energy leaders say they don't expect to issue a flex alert, despite some of those extreme temperatures. cal iso and the state's grid operator say that it expects that there will be enough energy to keep up with the demand across california. let's bring in meteorologist kari hall to talk about any possible things we have in store for us. >> it looks like the heat that we'll see in the bay area will not be as extreme as what we're seeing across the region. definitely not the kind of heat we had around memorial day but we're looking at temperatures in some spots reaching into the 90s this afternoon, while we will get enough of an ocean breeze to keep much of the bay area cool

with some 60s and 70s and then as you head down to the south bay we do have those 80s in the forecast. but then as we look across the region we know that we've seen some extremely hot temperatures that's been all of the headlines are about. the highs reaching up to 115 in portland and it's going to be hotter there than what we'll see in phoenix and las vegas. we'll talk more about that and also what we're expecting that's coming up in a few minutes. >> thanks so much, kari. this morning, fireworks will begin to go on sale across parts of the state amid dangerously dry conditions, ripe for wildfires. cierra johnson live in san bruno this morning breaking down where you can and cannot use those fireworks. a lot of communities are saying don't try it, they're watching you. >> reporter: good morning, laura. that's exactly right. things have been so dry the last couple months, it's probably a good idea just to stay away from them, but despite the fact of

those dry temperatures, it is still legal in some communities and many stands have been set up across the area. take a look at your screen. we're going to break down where it is legal to have those fireworks. this map gives you an idea of where the sales are legal here in san bruno, fireworks stands are ready for the sale of the fireworks today. sales start this week in pacific, dublin, newark, union city, gilroy and several other north bay locations. while fireworks are legal in some communities, others have shared they plan to step up patrol this holiday weekend. the drought-like conditions can take it dangerous in some places to set off fireworks. san jose police took to twitter to remind residents fireworks in their community are illegal and can result in thousands of dollars in fines and jail time. for some of the folks we spoke with in the bay, the tradition they say should be left to the professionals. >> i hear illegal fireworks

going off all the time. i don't believe any should be sold. it should be controlled shows if they're going to have them. >> i don't think fireworks should be illegal but they should keep them small, keep them small and don't promote all the big parties with the illegal fireworks. >> reporter: some good advice there. it's not just the bay area or the state of california that's banning those personal fireworks. they're being banned across states like new mexico and idaho and bigger displays banned in some states like colorado and arizona where they've dean smaller brush fires. if you plan on visiting a stand like this, be sure that they are legal in your jurisdiction and use smart, you know, use -- be smart about it when you light the fireworks. keep the bucket of water handy and don't do it near dry brush. the fireworks can lead to disaster. we're live in san bruno, cierra johnson for "today in the bay." >> we don't need more

month for evidence the economy is recovering after the pandemic. one odd thing, i know you've seen this in places like restaurants, is there are a lot of job openings but doesn't necessarily mean people are taking the job. they're staying home. now a lot of politicians will tell you that's because they're getting paid to stay home, that unemployment benefits are so good they're discouraging people from returning to work and that could be the case in certain situations. but it is up to the states whether or not to tack on that extra unemployment benefit that was offered during the pandemic. california still does, but 22 states have stopped and we are not seeing people flooding in to fill those job openings. in economics as you know, nothing in life is cut and dry. the argument that generous benefits keeping people away from work is probably true for some families but the evidence isn't strong, it's likely the answer is way more complicated and very individual to each

individual american family. >> yeah. a lot of us haven't dealt with anything like this before so we don't know. >> exactly. the latest california department of finance numbers as well reaffirming what a lot of people may have already known about, just trying make it in the bay. home prices across the state are red hot. in may they were up nearly 40% over the same time a year ago. the median now $818,000. may was the second month in a row where prices statewide surpassed that level. home sales meanwhile down just slightly from april, but nearly twice the amount from last year's low when the pandemic was raging. new details in the build up to the summer olympics. one of the biggersest stars in tennis won't take part. serena williams made it official. although serena did not go into details she did say there were a lot of reasons making that degrees. the four-time gold medalist

that's the only spot that we'll see that intense heat as most of it has been over the pacific northwest. this is going to gradually back off as we head into the week and go back to its normal spot across the desert southwest. so for the bay area, we return to a more typical pattern where we see our ocean breeze and keeping some of our coastal areas cooler than what we'll see for the inland valleys. as we go into the week i wanted to show you livermore. our temperatures in the upper 80s here. by tuesday and wednesday are our warmest days of the week and we're also going to be fairly mild for our valleys heading into the end of the week. fourth of july is within sight and it still looks pretty good. we'll see our temperatures for some of our inland areas in the low to mid 80s while san francisco looks like it keeps the fog and, of course, we're always watching to see if it will be foggy for the fireworks. at this point the answer is yes. we'll see our temperatures remaining steady in the upper 60s up to 70 degrees by

tomorrow. overall looks pretty good here. mike, how is it looking for the commute? >> overall looks pretty good here. sounds like i copied your notes, right. rarely any problems this time of day. south bay, same thing. we'll move the camera for our maps and look at the walnut creek area. the earlier issue the minor crash looks like it's not causing a problem. in the north bay, highway 12 west of i-80 there is a minor crash there and there's no slowing. this right here, there may be gusty winds over in rio vista. nothing reported on kari's warning system but the report from our map system and the road weather index. back to you. >> thanks so much. 5:20. next on "today in the bay," nbc bay area responds. >> after hours on the phone and several months in the ringer, one bay area mom's brand new dryer still wasn't working. i'm consumer investigators chris chmura. nbc bay area responds next. plus, a team always on social media. take a look at these guys. no, they're not my real brothers but they are my brothers.

but remember, they do have a separate route for another side deal pushing through what they consider bigger and better portions of the bill separately through what they call reconciliation. they need a simple majority in the senate, not 60. we can say there's progress. here's a republican senator praising the first part of the deal. >> it's a great deal. it is actually going to provide the infrastructure that american people want, that they need, that will make our country more prosperous for all americans. i hope it's enough. we'll see going forward. i'll continue to work for the bill. >> positive energy. meanwhile the president will meet with israel's president today. this is not the gentleman elected to replace benjamin netanyahu. israel has a prime minister and a president simultaneously. as do many countries that have parliamentary systems. video here of our secretary of state antony blinken meeting with israel's president rivlin. the importance is a re-set with

israel and the united states from its previous two leaders, netanyahu and trump. netanyahu, the former prime minister was forced out of office this month and is in the midst of a corruption trial. back here at home we're watching both the new york state attorney general and the d.a. for manhattan as they wrap up their investigation into the trump organization.

the wait, the more the potential for problems to arise. critics argue democrats are trying to steamroll the change. if approved the measure would roll back deliberate steps to four years ago to slow down a deliberate ousting a state senator. the election is still not expected before mid september to allow time for the ballots to be printed. happening today, it is almost liftoff for sacramento schoolteacher. >> yeah. domina stamas is a teacher in sacramento and won of 28 teachers who are part of a nasa program that gathers information about our universe. they fly in modified 747 that goes above the stratosphere 24,000 feet higher than any flight. it will create life lessons for students on the ground. >> i hope that this shows my students and anybody really that go for your passion and
