details on today's unusual cleanup effort at lake merritt. this is "today in the bay" streaming live on roku, amazon fire tv, apple tv and online. i'm marcus washington. >> i'm laura garcia. kari hall is tracking this dangerous heat wave that is about to hit the bay area. >> it's just in time for the labor day weekend. we'll see temperatures ramping up over the next few days, except for san francisco. we'll continue to see the clouds and the fog like we're seeing this morning as we look from the bay bridge towards san francisco. as we look at our temperatures for today, upper 50s to start. right now it's mostly clear. we will see more clouds moving in. clearing out late morning into the afternoon. south bay temperatures heading to the 80s today. more 90s popping up on the map especially for the east bay with concord and danville reaching 94 degrees. we'll talk about all the microclimates. mike, you have more issues on

the roadways. >> the arrows show you the typical slowing, the traffic is flowing better for eastbound 80. let's zoom in to the earlier crash and the alert. there was a deadly crash overnight. that's the sad news. the good news is that traffic has cleared through the area at hilltop drive and also the slowing for the distraction has cleared from the westbound commute direction. it's a lighter drive. we still have a slow drive, south 880 to 92. we'll talk about details coming up. >> thanks. developing for you this morning, two more shootings targeting cars on busy bay area roadways. at least one of them on the freeway, and that one involved an off-duty police officer. "today in the bay's" bob redell is live for us this morning. that second shooting possibly involved a child. >> right. that happened around 10:00 last night. oakland police are investigating a possible shooting on eastbound 580 and park in oakland.

as you can see in this video, it ended with a crash on the side streets at 35th and brookdale. also in oakland. that's the vehicle that was shot at. at least one bullet hole is visible in the car. a witness told our photographer on the scene that she heard the crash, ran over to the wreck, says the woman driver was badly hurt and that a child in the car had also been shot. no confirmation yet from opd. in the south bay, law enforcement is looking for a person who shot at an off-duty san jose police officer as he was driving into work yesterday afternoon. this was on northbound 101 near highway 85. fortunately, the officer was not injured. the right passenger door, you can see there's a clear bullet hole there. he told chp he didn't see a gun but he heard a pop and described the suspect vehicle as a white hatchback with no license plates. the san jose police officers association said the officer was clearly shaken up. as is the rest of the law

enforcement community as they try to figure out if this was a random attack. >> with the rise in ambushes on law enforcement officers, obviously it enters our minds right away. you know, it's unclear at this time if this officer was targeted. >> earlier this year, the nbc bay area investigative unit found there were 28 shootings in 2019, 124 in 2020 and 178 in 2021. the governor's office announced a pilot program that would put 200 cameras in some of the bay area freeway locations. last week caltrans confirmed some of those cameras may be going up in several counties including alameda and contra costa. bob redell, "today in the bay." two people are in custody this morning after a late-night chase that ended with an arrest

in lafayette. you can see right here, that's where that car crashed into a deputy's cruiser. lafayette police say the chase started in el sobrante. deputies there corralled the car on woodboro road. police say there are no outstanding suspects. breaking overnight, the justice department is revealing new details about classified documents seized from former president trump's florida home. it now says evidence suggests that information was concealed and removed ahead of the fbi search. "today in the bay's" brie jackson is in washington with the latest. the justice department really waited until the 11th hour here. >> good morning, laura. 11th hour indeed. in that late-night filing, the justice department said over 100 unique, classified documents were seized. some were so sensitive and classified that fbi agents and justice department attorneys and fbi agents needed additional security

clearance to review them. >> reporter: an inside look at the evidence seized from former president trump's florida home. in this photo, included in the justice department's filing, you can see several documents clearly marked top secret. >> he wasn't supposed to have these documents under the law regardless of their classification level. >> reporter: doj's late-night filing cites efforts to obstruct its investigation saying government records were likely concealed and removed. and casting doubts on the trump team's cooperation, stating the fbi recovered twice as many documents with classification markings as the "diligent search that the former president's counsel had weeks to perform." this overnight filing comes ahead of a court hearing on thursday. a federal judge is weighing trump's request to appoint an independent third party, known as a special master, to review the documents recovered from mar-a-lago. >> they put on a number of conditions because they understand the judge may still

appoint the special master. >> reporter: justice officials argue appointing a special master would impede the government's criminal investigation. the judge in the case had signaled she's likely to rule in trump's favor. >> all of these things are calculated time delays that the trump team wants to take as they try to figure out strategy. >> reporter: in a speech on reducing gun violence, president biden condemned trump supporters threats. >> now it's sickening to see the new attacks on the fbi. threatening the life of law enforcement agents and their families for simply carrying out the law and doing their job. >> reporter: a job the justice department says is already complete, countering a need for a second pass on sifting through documents. and if a special master is appointed, the justice department has requested that that person be given a deadline to review the seized documents. while the federal judge has

signaled she's likely to assign a special master, we could soon find out if these files change her mind. the hearing in the case is scheduled for tomorrow. >> thanks for the latest. happening today, oakland city workers will be out in full force trying to clean thousands of dead fish along lake merritt. the concern is that the warmer weather is going to move in over the next few days, and that could lead to foul smell coming from those rotting fish. the city plans to post signs around the lake and to update the oakland website. the fish are dying from that toxic algae bloom in lake merritt's waters. and that will further impact what is being called one of san francisco bay's worst-ever algae blooms. >> the heat wave we're experiencing could certainly prolong this bloom and make it more intense. >> bay keeper scientist ian

wrenn says the blooms going on right now is unprecedented in the bay. he says no research models ever predicted a bloom of this size which could spread so fast. in this case, it started with tiny red algae, now making the water toxic and leading to the fish dying off there. wastewater treatment plant runoff is believed to be one of the major triggers for that bay bloom. a follow-up on the legal stalemate involving the 49ers and the city of santa clara. city leaders yesterday did not vote on the team's offer to settle legal battles surrounding levi stadium revenues and operations. city auditors accused the niners of not giving the city its fair share of money from non-football events held at the stadium. this is the second time this month santa clara leaders have debated but not decided on the team's settlement proposal. let's get a breath of fresh air, shall we? >> yes. >> while we can. tracking the incoming heat.

we'll talk about the weekend heat that's coming up. mike, hopefully those gas prices are not going up. >> we're looking for some of the cheapest places to fill up. we'll look at some deals around the bay. palo alto gas, $4.89. danville expressway gasoline at san ramon valley road there, 4.79. bon fair in vallejo, that's $4.79. looking at the roadways, traffic is moving, but i need to zoom in to a crash blocking two southbound lanes of 880 as you approach 92. critical time for this as folks come out of castro valley and head down 880. there's a structure fire reported in hayward. i'm checking on that. so far traffic is not affected in the area. we'll follow that and bring that to you if it's a major issue. the earlier work for richmond

and eastbound 80 has cleared. westbound is recovering nicely. less than 20 minutes to the bay bridge from highway 4. >> thanks, mike. when it comes to cruise ships, nothing is more important than making a good connection. coming up, the new partnership meant to boost connections when it comes to surfing on the high seas. we have this story for you. way too much sauce there. the mess of a commute one pasta sauce made for drivers. lots of things go viral. videos go viral, so do peoples, how about somebody's linkedin. we'll look when "today in the bay" returns.

on tv, but we will show you this. a fella in baltimore saw his linkedin go viral after someone posted it on twitter. at first glance it looked like len worked for facebook, netflix and google. you look closer, his experience, you realize he was an account manager at netflix and he was responsible for managing and paying for accounts between five globally distributed family members. for apple, he led remote tech support for older family members throughout the country. i think we've all done that for apple. amazon, he increased order volume 123% over the last seven years. it was up for years, but people just now noticed because of the tweet. i called him on the phone. >> i have fun with my other social media, and i thought why not have fun with linkedin. i filled it out the way i did,

left it, and didn't think anything of it. i got a few messages over the years, and today is when it blew up. >> he got calls from everybody, he says. even some job offers based on just his sense of humor as well. he's perfectly happy at the job he has out there in baltimore. >> i would imagine. as a parent you could go on and on with all the stuff you do. >> hire him for creativity just because of that. okay. want to tell you about this. royal caribbean cruise lines will use spacex's network of satellites to provide internet service to guests and crews on its cruise ships. in june, the fcc authorized the company to use its starlink technology with moving vehicles. that move gives the green light to the company's plan to expand service to commercial airlines, ships and trucks. royal caribbean expects to complete installation by the end of march. mamma mia, what a traffic headache in tennessee.

indigestion. >> you don't eat from the roadways. >> the roads are clear. they have those cleaners out there all the time. enjoy the morning. things will be heating up. >> we have been talking about how hot it will be going into the weekend. if you were thinking of making that for the weekend, i don't know. temperatures headed for 92 today in concord, livermore and morgan hill. some of these temperatures in the inland valleys, this is what we've seen the past few days. today headed up towards 77 degrees in hayward. upper 60s in san francisco. notice tomorrow, those temperatures start to creep up. in santa rosa, we're hitting 94 degrees. fairfield, we'll see a high of 102. 100 in san martin. in san jose, we're up to about 88 degrees. you can see that seven-day forecast. it's already up at the bottom of the screen showing hotter

temperatures ahead from friday, especially hitting us as we go towards saturday as this large area of high pressure builds across the region. that's going to shift our wind direction and cause more records starting first in southern california and building into the bay area. so, for here, we're looking at areas from monterey on southward. an excessive heat warning starting today. some of those temperatures will hit 115 degrees. here we're looking at highs up to 110. our excessive heat warning begins on saturday. it continues through tuesday. so we have several days on end dealing with some hot weather, and this is going to be the hottest stretch of weather since 2020 in august. that was in livermore. we had seven days in a row of temperatures over 100 degrees. in livermore, we're looking at about four days of highs over 100 in a row. there still will be some hot temperatures before and after that. overall, our inland temperatures reaching 100 degrees. mainly starting on saturday,

continuing through tuesday. and for san francisco, it looks like as of now we're still not going to see that high heat along the coastline. but it's still going to warm up to the low 80s there. definitely much more comfortable than 110. mike, you're getting an update on the crash in hayward? >> i have my fingers crossed we don't get to those high heats where i'm going. towards the roadway, looking at higher speeds. they just cleared the roadway from this crash that has left lanes blocked. in the last 40 seconds, south 880 is recovering now. that's greater news. a lighter traffic flow around the bay because of the three-day weekend for folks and some people are sneaking out early. a build for the commute in san jose. typical pattern there. no major issues there. a smooth flow of traffic slowing down through richmond in your commute direction. metering lights are on. back to you.

6:25. today marks 25 years since the death of princess diana. she died in a car crash in paris, and a quarter century later her legacy still touches so many peoples hearts. >> her sons have been outspoken and keeping their mother's legacy alive. >> good morning. you can still see that close bond between the public and the princess today, 25 years after her death. you see it in just the outpouring today of flowers in her honor at that paris tunnel where the accident happened back in 1997. and also here at kensington palace. people are honoring her by laying flowers and also hanging huge posters and pictures of the princess at the gates of kensington palace. one of which says her good works continue through her sons. her sons prince william and prince harry are marking this day privately.

>> mostly this weekend. we have a couple more days to prepare. today we're headed for 81 in san jose. 92 in morgan hill. we're starting to see a few more 90s towards the inland east bay. the north bay today reaching 86 in santa rosa. tomorrow, we see more of those temperatures going up several more degrees. as hot as 102 in fairfield. 100 in san martin. the 70s for the inner bay and along the coastline. for friday, it's a repeat of thursday. on saturday is when the excessive heat warning goes up. we'll see a lot more widespread temperatures into triple digits for areas in pink. we'll have a heat watch in effect for our coastal areas in the inner bay. this is when you do want to make sure you're limiting that time outside and once again, now is the time to prepare. because of these temperatures, cal iso is warning that it will probably be issuing flex alerts

over the next several days. we're bringing in ginger conejero saab live with more on what we need to know. >> carey, that's right. not just flex alerts, but cal iso already issued a restricted maintenance operations notice, which means power generators and transmission line generators are delaying maintenance so as not to take that transition equipment offline. that equipment will become necessary for us and our power usage. you mentioned those flex alerts, that's going to be expected in the coming days. it's all in an effort to prevent rolling black outs and interrupted consumer use. what does this all mean to the consumer? you're asked to be more mindful about your power usage during this stretch of hot weather. you're asked to ease off your air conditioning. set your thermostat to 78 degrees or higher. you can avoid using large appliances like your dishwashers and washers and dryers, avoid charging your electric vehicles,

all of this during 4:00 to 9:00 p.m. that's usually when energy use soars. energy experts say this heat wave is potentially troublesome. high temperatures are forecasted throughout the west. california relies on importing electricity supplies from other western states, and if they are dealing with limited or interrupted supply, that could be a problem for us here. >> on a typical summer afternoon, the average usage in california is about 30,000 megawatts. and on a really hot day, it goes up to about 50,000 megawatts. and that difference is all air conditioning. >> that's a lot of power usage. all of this talk about power supply and limited consumption comes less than a week since the california air resources board announced an ambitious goal to ban the sale of new diesel and gas-powered vehicles by 2035.

so we're looking at electric charging stations like this one, people are questioning is this ambitious goal enough or okay to put pressure on california's electric grid now that we know the state relies heavily on western states, surrounding states for its power supply. we'll continue to monitor that continuing conversation as it goes along. live in san francisco, ginger conejero saab, "today in the bay." >> always concerning when there's a strain on that grid. thank you. don't forgot our nbcbay area app is a really great resource. it's free to download. you can get up-to-the minute weather alerts sent straight to your home. you can customize it for your neighborhood to track how hot it will get. we are following some breaking news right now in san francisco. this is video posted on citizen app of a fire. it's in a residential area on fitzgerald area, a few blocks

away from brett hart elementary. two duplexes caught fire. one person suffered minor injuries. we're awaiting word on the severity of the damage and a possible cause. moving forward this morning on the summer covid surge. experts telling the chronicle it may be waning. the bay area has a seven-day average of 18 covid infections per 100,000 people. this is below the state average of 21. that number is down from 37 three weeks ago. statewide positivity rate is now at 8.7%, though the numbers are probably a lot more fuzzy because so many more people are taking those at-home tests. as for the new covid vaccine booster shot, the fda is expected to give emergency use authorization any day now. this one will target the newest omicron subvariant and may roll out as soon as next week. this will also be the first covid vaccination distributed without results from human trials. because the white house is pushing for a fall booster campaign, pfizer and moderna only had time to test this

specific booster on mice. also happening today, the final push to approve new state legislation. state lawmakers are up to a midnight deadline with a number of bills hanging in the balance. >> we want to go to kris sanchez for us this morning. we're talking about everything from nuclear energy to vaccines for young people. >> there's a slew of legislation waiting for the governor's signature. governor newsom would sign that into law -- >> you know what? we're having trouble hearing you. we'll get that microphone switched out. >> all right. we'll check back with kris in just a little bit. we'll move on forward to our next story this morning. let's talk about oakland and what is happening there leading up to finding a new mayor there. they have been debating there. eight hopefuls last night got the chance to convince an audience that they should be the one elected.

last night's debate at laney college comes as oakland this week reels from a 13-year-old shot and injured at school by a suspect police say was just 12 years old. for the second time this summer, a deadly shooting and apparent robbery in little saigon. with so many big-city problems, most candidates agree public safety is at the top of everyone's list. >> our seniors are terrorized. they're afraid for their life in our city. >> accountability is the number one priority for our budget. we need to control it, prioritize hiring more police officers. >> the winner of this oakland mayor's race will clearly be taking on an embattled city. in all, ten candidates are in the running. 6:38 for you this morning. want to take a live look out at the golden gate bridge. look at that. it's beautiful. you can see the forecast this morning. kari hall tracking the weather for tomorrow. if it's anything like the visuals we see there, it will be a nice one.

>> a nice day. the clouds protecting us from that high heat. we'll start to feel that for the inland areas. looking at antioch and the way you're starting out the day, upper 50s. just a few clouds. it will be clearing out over the next several hours. we'll head for 78 degrees at noon. 83 at 1:00. eventually making it into the low 90s there. livermore reaching 92 today with upper 70s in fremont. novato headed for 84. 84 for the high in napa. we have today and for parts of the bay area tomorrow to prepare for the high heat. it is really going to ramp up for us this weekend. we'll talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. mike, you're trying to give us a look ahead on the road. >> trying. first of all, looking at the speeds slowing a bit at the richmond-san rafael bridge. no problem for 101 in san rafael. the bay bridge, we have a backup at the toll plaza.

we have an alert getting out of san francisco. a crash blocking one lane at the 1st street on-ramp. it's a major concern because it's an access point to the eastbound lower deck. that should clear up hopefully quickly. no major injuries reported. we have an afternoon game, 12:45, late-morning, some local closures. maybe some arrivals for lucky folks. this week may be more crowded than your typical midday game because some folks may be slipping out of work in anticipation of the holiday weekend. working on the caldecott tunnel eastbound, that's from 10:00 tonight. it should be clear for the morning commute, counter commute any way. commute from hayward recovering from an earlier crash around 92. no problems for the nimitz. >> people start the holiday weekend on a wednesday? must be nice. talking football on "today in the bay."

don't write jimmy g. out of the playbook just yet. coming up next, call him a keeper. head coach kyle shanahan laying out his plans for the team's most important position. a new tough-talking president biden tells people to pick a side and back the blue. let's take you out to the big board where we see green, just a little bit. dow up 55 points.

it's 6:43 on your wednesday morning. as you step out the door in the

north bay, check out santa rosa. it's cool out there. upper 40s right now. it's clear and we'll see a few clouds throughout the morning and then sunshine the rest of the day as we head for upper 70s at 1:00 and eventually reaching to the upper 80s for today. some of our interior valleys heating up. we'll talk about that and the weekend forecast in a few minutes. we had a big bump up for the volume with the taillights westbound out of hayward. that's a lane change right there. going across to the peninsula, looking at more traffic as the crash cleared on the nimitz. we'll show you how things are flowing around the bay. no alerts active right now. >> thank you. it is quickly approaching 6:45. the search is on for a man who sexually assaulted a woman at the palo alto transit center. it happened early saturday morning between 2:00 and 3:00 a.m. that's when a woman was followed from a bus stop on university avenue and the man attacked her near a portable restroom.

later she went to the hospital and was treated for minor injuries. officers are asking anyone with information to come forward. a tough-talking president biden told americans to back the blue in a raucous speech in pennsylvania on tuesday. >> the president sounded frustrated indeed -- let's see if we can get that to work. sounded very frustrated that there are still people who thought the attackers were in the right in this situation and that the officers were somehow the bad guys. >> for god's sake, whose side are you on? whose side are you on? on the side of a mob or the side of the police. you can't be pro law enforcement and pro insurrection. you can't be a party of law and order and call the people who

attack the police on january 6th patriots. you can't do it! >> biden also talked about new funding for law enforcement even as some in the republican party call for the defunding of agencies like the fbi. a new bill called safer america sets aside money to hire 100,000 new police officers throughout america. now, on thursday, biden will make a rare prime time address at independence hall in philadelphia urging americans to protect democracy, an effort the white house calls a battle for the soul of the nation. nbc will carry that speech live. an update on the mar-a-lago search. the justice department filed new paperwork that said the government documents they were looking for at the president's home were moved, concealed or hidden. evidence showing that one was trying to obstruct the investigation. it said evidence that the

government records were likely concealed and removed from the storage room and that efforts were likely taken to obstruct the government's investigation. the filing also provided a single picture of what the fbi says was found at mar-a-lago. you can see there are folders marked top secret and secret. documents the trump team said it didn't have in the first place. the doj says some of these documents were found in a drawer in trump's office. now, trump on his truth social network once again said he declassified these documents. but remember, the government's case never mentions classification. the legal case rests on the accusation you had something that wasn't yours, you said you didn't have them, and then you moved them or hid them to prevent us from finding them. while we're going over those affidavits and search warrants and other filings line by line and talking about them on social media. on facebook we can talk about it @scottmcgrewtv.
