good morning, it is sunday july 31st. right now we are taking a look at the bay bridge. a nice calming shot. it looks chilly out there. thank you so much for joining us. rob is joining us this morning with a look at your forecast. you are keeping an eye on a lot. the weather as well as the fires a large. >> reporter: what is typically

the driest time of the year, not so much, we have isolated showers in the forecast in addition to drivel we are seeing in the san francisco. a few scattered showers, a few more inland and notice the trend as we move the radar animation forward you can see how the showers are actually coming up out of the south. and we think at times it could complicate buyers fires. 72 degrees right now, but there is a chance we could see some lightning at times around the fire and there is a look at the wildfire smoke for now most of that staying up near the california and oregon border. warm and dry to start and as we head to the afternoon we will see breezy conditions and temperatures climbing into the 90s with the risk of thunderstorms. we will talk more about thunderstorms for the bay area coming up in a few minutes. now a state of emergency has been declared where firefighters are trying to get a handle on another massive

wildfire. the mckinney fire burning not far from the state border of oregon. it has already burned 30,000 acres becoming the largest fire in the state in just one day. they see the fires just 1% contained. this fire exploded in size yesterday. take a look at this 12 hour time lapse video from a camera and the alert fire wildfire network. this video on your screen shows video and there is no account of how many homes have been lost. evacuations underway with more issues a city near the shasta river. and they are not the only ones. more than 2000 people are under evacuation orders. this map shows where people are being told to leave. all of the red zones are mandatory orders.

when you are not on there, when we are not on air, get the latest information on our website. near yosemite now as firefighters tried to gain a hand on the oak fire. it is now 59% contained. this fire has been burning for about a week in mariposa county. 116 of them home. the good news here, they say there was minimal fire activity over the past day. one of the many challenges facing fire crews now is the homes in the hills that aren't on any maps. >> there are hundreds if not thousands of homes in the valley. at last check about 200 homes

are still in the pack path of the fire. firefighters are working hard to protect the homes and risking their own lives. in the past three years, 82 california firefighters have died including at least 11 from the bay area. as marianne reports they were honored in sacramento during the first in person memorial in three years. >> reporter: they battlefields wildfires and intense flames ripping through buildings in our neighborhoods. at california firefighters memorial ceremony, a solemn reminder of the dangers firefighters face. >> they knew the risks that they were taking and they didn't flinch. >> reporter: 82 firefighters died in the past 3 1/2 years including at least 11 from the bay area. >> christopher dock, san francisco. >> reporter: among them, christopher the firefighter

department in san francisco. firefighter jason cortez lost his life during a training accident in san francisco. >> john cronin, redwood city. >> reporter: and john cronin who served 30 years with the redwood city fire department died of a job related illness. nearly half of those honored during the ceremony died of job- related cancer but the pandemic also took a toll. all of the fallen firefighters were praised for their dedication. >> in my opinion, the word hero applies more to them than to any other group of citizens or public servants. >> reporter: flags were presented to the grieving families.

and then the final wringing of three bells marking the end of the fallen firefighters duty and a return to home. the names of each of the 82 firefighters who died will be etched in stone at the memorial in sacramento. their sacrifices etched in our memory. president biden has tested positive for covid-19 again and this has some questioning the effectiveness of the treatment the president was given more than a week ago. we have the expert analysis from one of the region's top infectious disease doctors. >> reporter: the sobering news came late saturday morning. president biden had tested positive after testing negative every day from tuesday to friday.

the 79-year-old president has not experienced any new symptoms and says he feels well enough to work in isolation from the oval office. this comes after he was given a drug to help produce the severity and symptoms from covid. >> the infectious disease expert says it is unusual for someone to have a rebound case like this but not of unheard of. but ucsf department of medicine told the atlantic that the rebound rate could be much higher, even more than 10%. he said he remains confused about whether the drug is

useful for anyone who is fully vaccinated but he says in his experience it is still very useful for some patients. >> you know, it is 90% effective in preventing hospitalization in the most risky patients which are unvaccinated patients with at least one risk factor for a severe disease. five people are under arrest accused of carrying out an apple store in the east bay. it all started yesterday morning at the apple store in walnut creek. we say the suspect ran in and grabbed the laptops, ipads and iphones before escaping. hours later, police spotted the suspect's car and stopped it. police say they found two guns including a ghost gun which is an unregulated firearm with a 30 round magazine. police say they discovered another car involved in the theft and found those suspects

nearby. that is where they found the solon park from the apple store. the five people were all taken into custody. walnut creek police a 28- year-old breonna taylor concord has been booked into jail for driving under the influence and grossly nuclear manslaughter. it happened just before 2:00 yesterday morning on norton north main street. the victim has not yet been identified. another is recovering from major injuries. security video from a new business shows the vehicle speeding past and people following shortly after and then you see flashing lights arriving at the scene. the person who was arrested being held at the saint martinez trail on $300,000 bail. much more had today in the ba coming y.up

seen this ad? it's not paid for by california tribes. it's paid for by the out of state gambling corporations that wrote prop 27. it doesn't tell you 90% of the profits go to the out of state corporations. a tiny share goes to the homeless, and even less to tribes. and a big loophole says, costs to promote betting reduce money for the tribes, so they get less. hidden agendas. fine print. loopholes. prop 27. they didn't write it for the tribes or the homeless. they wrote it for themselves.

welcome back. it is time right now for a weekly discussion with chuck todd and moderator of meet the press. in morning. you so much for joining us. senate democrats have announced a surprise deal that will raise taxes of corporations and provide new funding of climate change for the affordable care act. my question is these are big promises, big things, but is it enough to impact the upcoming midterms and more important is this actually help everyday people before then? >> reporter: the question of timing i think is one that is hard to answer. it is unlikely this will impact our pocketbook immediately. some have argued that perhaps the lowering of prescription drug prices now that medicare will be able to go she ate that the might be something we see first of all of the impact. about much of the energy investments both on the climate front but also there is a huge

investment in fossil fuel infrastructure as well. there was a promise sort of speeding up some permits so this is one of the cases which if you are a purist when it comes to the climate, you're not going to like the fossil fuel investments that are in here. and he points to inflation as a reason for that. the other interesting thing that comes out of this is in the mansion is arguing they did not raise taxes. that would have to do with they didn't add a tax or a deduction for what others might call a loophole but at the end of the day corporations will be paying more to the federal government than they were before. it was fascinating to me to hear senator mansion argued that they did not raise taxes.

>> interesting. eyes have been on the january 6th hearing. the justice department has reportedly begun asking witnesses about the actions leading up to the date so what exactly do you think they are looking for from these witnesses and what could that information mean moving forward? >> i think they are trying to figure out if a crime was committed and who did it and then of course the question is if you get closer and closer to the former president, you know, how much of a hand did he have in it? and one thing about donald trump is he was very careful, he was trying to get other people to break the law. other people to stop account. other people to do certain things and when it came time for him to do certain things he didn't do it. is not enough to prevent a criminal charge against him? i think the question will be how many people around the president, and this is what one prosecutor said to me, you will know they are getting close to charging him with a crime if you start to see people close to him essentially flip and

start working on behalf of the justice department. if you start seeing things like that and people like mark meadows or someone really close to the president like that then you know they are getting close to something. without people flipping it may be harder to find enough evidence and witnesses to actually charge him with a crime . >> interesting. you will be breaking all of this down with pete williams. that is an interesting thing. he is saying goodbye after 30 years on the air. that is something special. >> it is. it is amazing he has had two great runs professionally. it is something a lot of people can only hope for. like i said i hope to be pete williams.

coming up in about 30 minutes from now we will talk to the political analyst for our weekly segment. we will take a look at how democrats help some republicans when their primaries and the reason they say it will ultimately help democrats win in the midterm elections now just 100 days away. developing news across eastern kentucky the death toll from this week's floods keeps rising at least 25 people have died due to the surging waters. the floodwaters are starting to pull back but now the fear of the death toll is becoming a reality. among the dead are four children, all siblings, it means rescue teams can reach more survivors. those searches are still urgent. >> i am worried that we are going to be finding bodies for weeks to come. thousand still have no power but cell reception is improving in the area and some will

likely go days without clean drinking water. they say 18 trailers are on their way at the moment. back here locally we have seen and felt this heat and now there are surprising electric bills. it is not just because you have been cranking up the ac, the price of electricity is skyrocketing nationwide with more price hikes to come. this summer americans are expected to spend $540 on electricity bills. and part of the spike is caused by the russian invasion of ukraine which sent natural gas prices through the roof. there are some ways to lower your bill as they tried turning the thermostat up a few days during the peak hours. and tried to talk to your electric company about a payment plan. and east bay city has revamped an entire library that has been overdue. the only public library here is

in pleasant hill and it was torn down a couple years ago because it was outdated but it is now a place by this brand- new modernized library that was 20 years in the making. what else is happening this weekend? we have more on the fun going on around the bay area today. >> in morning. let's start in the north bay right around here. it is a wacky road rage featuring other mobile contractions. not so different from our weekday commute i imagine. the event also concludes live music and so much more. over in walnut creek we had a benefit for the ranch museum.

it is also a fundraising event for the museum which will be open for tours as well. finally had across the bay to golden gate park cisco scares showcase hosted by the church of eight wheels. the san francisco skaters showcase is not a showcase it is one of the happy places where it will be located called skate in place. you can hang out on the hillside and enjoy that as well. have yourself a great sunday. let's take a moment to celebrate our four-legged friends. today is national monday. if you are looking for a pet, national monday might be good. we wanted to show you some mixed breeds that have

brightened up our lives. and of course we all know beings. we all know today in the base mascot for the weekend. i want to see your pup pictures. send them to me. i will re-share your photos. >> we got a little spaniel and we will try to do some dog walking as we have a chance for a few showers heading tonight into tomorrow. really unusual for this time of year. we've got those temperatures in the 60s and it is kind of muggy out there. we got some mid-level moisture coming in.

63 currently in san jose. overcast skies at 60 degrees as the storm continues. mostly cloudy at 58 degrees. some drizzle at times but we will see a few showers going from south to north. we start around lunchtime. still seeing those conditions 70s inland, 60s from san francisco to oakland climbing into the upper 70s around san jose, mid-80s morgan hill around the tri-valley. and likely staying in the 60s around san francisco and oakland. it is a one-two punch of tropical moisture that is coming to the bay area first up. hurricane will weekend. watch how the moisture kind of streams through it will move up to the coast. the majority of this moisture gets cold. that will provide an

extra boost to the already muggy conditions around the bay area monday into early tuesday. right now the radar showing if he returns passing some of the northbay coastline. you can see how this is kind of drifting in from the central valley. might see a shower or two and look how the moisture is coming in from the southeast. as we head to the afternoon we will see a chance of showers increasing from south to north 6:00 i think the main event will be overnight, look at that sunday night 11:00 later today and into monday morning you can see the showers passing by to the north and eventually once we passed monday afternoon likely most of the showers move out. the problem is some of the stronger showers may have lightning in the rain totals here don't look all that

impressive it will be nice to get at least some rain although we really have to avoid the lightning given how dry the conditions are. we will have the slight thunder chance and skies start to clear as we head toward tuesday and more typical leather for this time of year with the 90s making a comeback next weekend. >> the umbrellas and we hope you don't get any lightning strikes. thank you so much. much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, will clark has his jersey retid. what reth

it was a big day at the ballpark in san francisco. the giants took on the cubs. but before the game got underway yesterday the team held a ceremony to honor one of the greatest to wear an orange and black jersey. will clark, a longtime fan favorite helped lead them to the iconic world series in 1989

. his number 22 will never be worn by another giant ever. the team retired his jersey. they were having such a good time at the ceremony the celebration delayed the game a bit. >> this right here is my hall of fame and to be recognized with the incredible names of this historical franchise is beyond belief. i always wanted to win and have others around me be winners. we all did that together here. i am will "the thrill" clark. i am part of san francisco and i am forever a giant. [ applause ] >> imagine the energy there. now to the game, let's see if the giants can deliver on will clark day. a two run homer but then on the very next pitch joey barr joins

in on the fun and hit a homerun of his own. that is back to back home runs by a pair of rookies. will clark thrilled liking what he sees. the giants go on to win 5-4. now to the a's that have been on fire lately winning seven of the last eight games and in chicago the bats were still hot. an estimated 452 feet but the white sox would tidied up late in the game. and the pitch is in the dirt. it's gets away from the catcher and the runner scores from third. white sox walk off with a win 3- 2. much more ahead on today in the bay coming up, a new wildfire is erupting in northern california earning over 30,000 acres in a single day. - you okay? - there's a flex alert today so i'm mentally preparing for the power outage. oh, well we can help stop one because we are going to reduce our energy use from 4-9pm. what now?

i stepped on a plug. oh that's my bad! unplugging. when it comes to preventing outages the power is ours.

good morning, everyone. it is sunday, july 31st. we are taking a live look at oakland. the sky looks gorgeous. a reminder to get out there just before any of the possible rain starts rolling in. thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> we are watching a little bit of drizzle and a chance of seeing a few scattered showers as we head to the afternoon and evening. highs today 70s to mid 80s around the tri-valley. is closer to san francisco and oakland but we are looking at the radar in late july. this does not happen very often but you can see how these returns are kind of coming up from south to north. that is what will provide the fuel for a few isolated showers today.

closely monitoring the mckinney fire, we got temperatures in the 70s to start off the morning that has produced a tremendous amount of smoke right now. we will give you likely to stay higher this morning it is mormon for the afternoon we are th90s with humidity levels and a chance of lightning and gusty winds near the fire coming up we will take a closer look at lightning fire danger close to the bay area in our forecast coming up in a few minutes. a state of emergency has been declared where firefighters are wrangling another massive wildfire. fire burning in the national forest not far from the state border of oregon. it already burned 30,000 acres becoming the largest fire in the state in just a single day. hellfire says the fire is only 1% contained right now. this fire exploded in size yesterday. this right here is a 12 hour

19,000 acres and is now 59% contained. the fire has been burning for about a week in mariposa county. this is what the oak fire left behind. in its path 182 buildings destroyed. 116 of them homes. the good news, though comic hellfire says there was minimal fire activity over the past day. the fire only growing four acres yesterday. but one of the many challenges facing firefighters is finding the homes people have built in the hills that aren't on any maps. >> their homes scattered all throughout here. there are hundreds if not thousands of homes in the valley. firefighters are working hard to protect those homes risking their own lives. it is a tough and dangerous job. in the past three nap years 82 california firefighters have died including at least 11 from the bay area. as marion barber reports they

muggy conditions to wake up to this morning. 60 in dublin and closer to san francisco we have some misty skies once again. 50s and 60s outside with a little bit of drizzle again around the coast and interbay but also seeing a chance of a few showers as part of today's trend, temperatures climbing into the 70s inland but staying in the 60s around san francisco. mid 60s around san francisco, highs in the upper 70s around san jose. mid 80s near fairfield and likely staying in the mid to upper 70s around the north bay. but let's talk more about the source of this shower chances we are seeing them typically the driest time of the year very active. we will also see remnant moisture from the hurricane which will become a tropical storm and then depression system off the coast of baja, california. you can see kind of aiming up toward the bay area where significant moisture likely

sees offshore but this is providing the fuel for the showers we will be seeing around the region today and tomorrow. right now we are seeing some showers move offshore. a few more to the east of the altamont pass also slowly going to the west. and we put this radar into motion you can see the showers today. that is also unusual. this is actually coming up out of the south and southeast and the satellite view shows you perspective as this moisture continues to kind of rotate up from central california through the day today. eventually moving toward the northeast as we head into monday afternoon.

ordinarily any talker showers would be good news but the problem is you may see some lightning with some stronger showers and the rain totals while welcome are pretty low so fingers crossed that all of this comes through without any lightning but that is a possibility for tomorrow by tuesday the sky starts to clear and we should see a warming trend passing the middle part of the week losing the muggy weather and the tropical like weather and getting back to some dry air and potentially 90s . a lot of mugginess and a few showers for the weekend. hopefully they can get some rain up north. we saw a lot of gusty winds. >> so the lightning strikes would not make it. thank you so much. we have much more for you today in the bay. coming up we are talking about the politics coming up with the politics coming up with larry gersten. when i make decisions

as a leader, it's not about me or the folks that are here. it's about the next seven generations coming behind us, making sure that they have the ability to move forward. prop 27 will help small rural tribes like mine get a seat at the table will be transformational for my tribal members. taxing online sports betting gives us an opportunity to really enhance the lives of our tribe and strengthen the future of our people. vote yes on prop 27.

a group of renters in the east bay are celebrating a big win after more than two years of a strike. they start of the strike in a fight for more affordable housing in oakland for their apartment building. we first told you about the story back in 2020 and now after 2 1/2 years the tenants got the keys to the building with some financial help from the alliance of community action and the oakland community land trust. they bought the apartment for $3.3 million using city bond funds. they purchased the property allowing them to stay as homeowners. back in april elon musk announced he would buy twitter

for $44 billion and take it private and then he backed out and twitter sued him forcing him to go through with the deal. the countersuit details are not yet available to the public through court records. a new study which tracks the money in politics signs that the democratic party has been $44 million trying to help republicans win their primaries . something we wouldn't expect. larry gersten joins us this morning to unpack this seeminglductive investment. what is this all about? >> reporter: it is unusual if you think about it. why is one party helping another? at the fact is democrats have a plan. the plan is to try to put money behind far right wing republicans who may be running against moderate republicans in the primary. the thinking is if we can get the far right republicans to win when we put up our democratic candidates it will be easier for us to carry the

district in the case. that is the plan at least in theory. >> and also one political party helping the candidates in the other party, is that odd, is that illegal or just on us or the third unorthodox? >> it is not illegal but then we get into this whole area of unethical and that is where you will see a division. democrats are going to say we are not being unethical, we are being strategic. we are figuring out a way we can win. republicans are saying democrats are trying to rig the election by stacking the deck in a way that republicans need to find out ourselves. so, it really depends like beauty on the beholder when it comes to that question. >> now we note about it so people can make their own decisions. but the big question is, is it working? >> reporter: yeah, you know, the jury is out because we are only partway through the season but so far we have seen it work

in a couple of states. illinois and pennsylvania where the right-wing guy won. it has not worked right here in california by the way, or colorado. the jury is out. mixed results so far but it will certainly keep a discussion going. $44 million so far spent. >> reporter: yeah, not a little amount. are republicans doing the same thing with far left democrats? >> reporter: yes, but it is in a way that both parties are doing it, again, legal but questionable. we have what we call independent expenditure groups and so members of one party will go ahead and put a bunch of money in there and load it up and handed whatever way they want. republicans have done this

through expenditure committees and democrats have done it as well. this is something not new. what is new is the fact democrats have been blatant and open about it. but it really gives the candidates a bigger question and that is how easy it is to spend money and politics in this country. there are no real laws or regulations. and as long as we have this kind of situation you will see parties trying to take advantage of each other in a handful of ways every single time. and it makes it harder on the voter by the way. and in the end it is the voters who may suffer. >> thank you so much for coming here and breaking it all down. as you said at least the voters know about it. thank you so much for joining us. next, a quick look at the top stories we are following including bay area firefighters heading up north to fight the fires there. norther california evacuations underway as flames ripped through the fire national

forest and the weather only worsening. we are tracking the late from st

nbcbayarea.com. we just got an update from hellfire about the containment been burning for about a week and mirrors was accounting. this is what they left behind. the good news, though, they said there is minimal fire activity over the past eight only growing four acres yesterday. one of the many challenges now is finding the homes people have built in the homes that aren't any maps. about 200 homes are still in the path of the yoke fire. rob joins us with one look at our forecast. a lot going on and for the beginning of the work week?.

>> it is the wind shifts and temperatures near 100 degrees. right now this morning on the radar view we do have some passing showers moving through the bay area part of the monsoonal moisture which right now we don't have any lightning but it will increase the instability and very likely we will see some thunderstorms at times unfortunately up around the mckinney fire and close around the bay area we got 70s and 80s inland today but you look at the temperatures and you think that is not so bad but it is muggy outside. it is kind of unusual that you got this high humidity and temperatures in the 80s and we will see that over toward fairfield northbay into the 70s. and 82 in gilroy. we will see our own chance for thunderstorms as we head into tomorrow morning. you see it right there, thunder possible and skies starting to

clear heading toward next weekend. thank you so much for making us a part of your morning. we will be right back at 5:00, 6:00 and 11:00 p.m. 6:00 and 11:00 p.m. have a great sunday, everyone.

big tobacco's cigarette butts filter practically nothing and are made of microplastic fibers that are toxic and cunning. they may seep into water and food, and air, too. and the smaller microplastics get, the more damage they do. could they end up in you, your bodies, their prey? new studies indicate possible links to mutations in dna. an evil lie with a future's worth of harm. to the world, now you know. so sound the alarm.

this sunday, a big deal. >> we're taking a giant step forward as a nation. >> joe manchin and democrats finally agree on a bill to spend billions on climate, energy, healthcare, and to cut the deficit. it is a political win, but do democrats have the votes they need? >> we'll be talking and hopefully we'll have 50 votes. >> i'll talk to the man at the center of it all, senator joe manchin of west virginia. plus, senate republicans block a bill they formerly
