problem and no backup at the toll plaza. highway 13 has closed. we will checked that and ultimate pass gets a note about the breeze from chp and in san jose, the observatory, we have some cables down. they may be wires, but they were looking for somewhere cooler. >> it will be starting to heat up today. as we do have at least a cool morning, let's check out santa rosa as you are heading out the door, 54 degrees and we will see temperatures here just until about 6:00 and and starting to warm up as we go into the rest of today, we will see a partly cloudy sky and already 80 degrees at 11:00 and then reaching up to 94 degrees today. in oakland reaching 83 degrees, it will be warmer in san francisco and we've been in the

60s all week but today, mid-70s and 84 in the fremont and 92 in livermore. tomorrow is when we reached the peak of the heat and take a look at how much hotter it will be with fairfield reaching 15 degrees. morgan hill reaches 99 and 88 in oakland with santa rosa maybe a degree under 100 degrees. toward saturday, it starts to cool down near the coast and slightly for the inland areas with much more of an ocean breeze picking up and we will have heat advisories in effect for pretty much all the bay area with an excessive heat warning and for solano county throughout the day on friday. and when we compare where we are heading versus the records, i think santa rosa may match the one degree record elsewhere. we are most likely just going to stay just below a record high and with the intense heat building, at least we don't see it sticking with us long heading toward the end of the weekend, there'll be some rain moving in with some scattered showers and parts of the northbay and for northern california as well as the sierra , a quick chance of showers but we will all get a cooldown and

we are looking at some slightly cooler temperatures to start out early next week, once again the heat building today, but peaking tomorrow and still a good day to try to stay inside as much as possible on saturday but sunday will be a much better day for outdoor activities while san francisco will go from mid-70s today to 80 tomorrow and then upper 60s and maybe a few spotty sprinkles on sunday. now we turn to the climate in crisis. good oral hygiene is something we all work to maintain, but how is your daily routine impacting our climate? our meteorologist explains in the climate hack. >> taking care of your teeth is not only important for a shiny smile, it's great for your overall health. and of course brushing your teeth is a part of that, but it's got me thinking, what happened to all of these plastic tubes once it is time to toss them out? here's the problem, according

to forbes, 1.5 billion tubes of toothpaste gets thrown out each year. yes, billions. all that ends up in the landfills contributed to our carbon emissions. fun fact, the first toothpaste tube was invented in 1886 by doctor sheffield. before that, it came in powders or it was sold in jars and many of them haven't changed the plastic tube design, but as we plan for the future of our planet, let's look for a zero waste option instead. check out these toothpaste tablets, this one comes with 100 in a tin can and all you have to do is grab one of these and pop it in your mouth and chew it until it foams and you go on with the regular toothbrush and you are good to go. we avoid the plastic packaging plus they are travel friendly. so what is the payoff? according to the world health organization, if you are brushing the recommended twice a day the average person could use up to six tubes of toothpaste per year.

let's say everyone living in palo alto with a population of nearly 70,000 made the switch the tablets instead. we could keep more than 400,000 single use tubes at a landfill every year. >> you can check out more of the climate hacks and other stories like this. visit us online. nbc bay area.com and click on the climate in crisis tab. there is a new challenge when comes to making it in the bay, a jump in mortgage rates, a spike in what you pay each month to own a home has led to a quick drop in the number of people applying for mortgages. our reporter has the reasons why and what it all means for you. >> this is a story about both houses and banks, because the rise in mortgage rates is now slowing home sales in the bay area even while houses crisis is at record highs, some of the recent frothing this has cooled. >> i've seen a lot of price
