containment stands now. working to protect your childcare funding. could be the end for the oakland a's. the crucial step before the team officially calls las vegas home. this is "today in the bay." a very good thursday morning to you. thanks for starting your day with us. i am laura garcia. >> i am marcus washington. cinthia is in for mike, and we will get to that in a minute, but first let's look at the forecast. it's starting out cool and cloudy and it will clear up, and for the inland valleys it will be warmer. a live look outside in san josé. you will see by 8:00 to 9:00 the sun is breaking out and it's going to be a beautiful day. make plans to get out there. as our temperatures head for the upper 70s and low 80s for today, we are reaching 80 degrees in san josé.

morgan hill one degree warmer, and in the low 80s for livermore. as you head to the inland valleys, it will be in the 80s. but compare that to the 60s, and no change for san francisco along the coastline and the june gloom will continue, mostly cloudy. now we are seeing the traffic piling up on the bay bridge, cinthia? >> yeah, take a look at the camera and more and more people are piling up at the bay bridge toll plaza. this is why the traffic is piling up, i believe, because of the crash happening westbound 80, and we are waiting for crews to show up. you can see the backup from treasure island all the way to the toll plaza. we are seeing the commute build on 101 northbound in san josé, so we will keep an eye on that. as far as another place in the bay area, we will check on what

is going on in the peninsula. but for now no troubles to the report on the san mateo bridge. >> thank you. a troubling night in san josé. right now an investigation is under way after a series of explosions as firefighters fight a fire at a public storage facility. this is near blossom hill and coddle roads. the initial explosion happened around 6:00 last night and was seen from miles away, and captured on camera. you see how large that fire was. it grew to become a three-alarm fire. the san josé firefighters say it's too soon to know what caused the explosion. ginger conejero saab is at the scene and will join us for the latest update. this morning the a's are another step closer to leaving

oakland. >> this comes after the nevada legislature agreed to help pay for a new ballpark in las vegas. today in the bay's bob redell joins us now. they are saying it's still not a done deal. >> the owners of major league baseball teams, they must still approve the a's move to las vegas. that's not set in stone. but nevada's governor must sign the new stadium bill into law, and that is something he is expected to do as early as today. last night the nevada legislature approved an amended deal to use taxpayer money to help the a's build a new ballpark on the vegas strip, and as part of the deal the a's will commit 1 million to $2 million a year. >> before the team gets money handed out they have to put money into the community, because they are afraid you give

them money and then the team leaves. >> the a's put out this statement, we thank the members of the nevada state, and we are especially grateful for the legislators time. and oakland's mayor also put out a statement. whatever happens in nevada, our focus is on what is doing best for oakland and expanding economic opportunity for all residents will not waiver. can you see from the tweets, many a's fans, no surprise, they are unhappy with the potential move out of oakland into las vegas. tuesday night, 27,000 a's fans packed the coliseum which was to show their support and their demand to the billionaire owner to sell the team to somebody that would keep them in oakland.

reporting live, bob redell for "today in the bay." >> bob, thank you. a person of interest in a bay area mass shooting now in custody. police say javier campos is a person of interest in friday night's mass shooting in san francisco's mission district. they say he's a known gang member with several outstanding arrest warrants across the bay area. nine people were shot during the drive-by last week at the block party at 24th street and treat avenue. all are expected to survive. in just a few hours the man accused of killing a woman in her san josé home will be back in court. he broke into the home of bambi larson and killed her. he's undocumented with a lengthy record. larson's murder sparked outrage

over the policy. today educators and advocates of san francisco's childcare community will rally again on the steps of city hall to reallocate the city's early education fund. this was the scene last week when hundreds gathered asking for leaders to keep proposition c the way it is. it allocates hundreds of millions of dollars to the city's early education department. this is not the first time prop c was challenged, and now it's up for yet another challenge. >> it's a long fight. early education is notoriously underpaid and you have the impact two times, the families

trying to pay for early education, and only some receive help with. a tentative deal is reached between ports and workers. unions are seeking a bigger share of the profits when cargo shipments surged during the pandemic. if approved by union members the contract will affect 22,000 dock workers at 29 points from california to washington state. and then fda advisors set to debate whether the vaccine, the

process is similar to updating the yearly flu shot that targets the most prevalent strains going around, but doctors say it must happen soon. >> covid, unfortunately, will never go away. it will be like influenza and it will be something like where we think about updating the vaccine based on what is circulating at the time. >> the panel will also decide if the new covid booster should be recommended for everybody and also when they will be available. happening now, firefighters still battling a fire in lake county. the henderson fire is burning on the edge of clearlake near clearlake oak. it has burned about 25 acres. it's 20% contained. cal fire is still concerned about spot fires. let's take a live look outside for you this morning in san josé. nice and calm there this morning. meteorologist, kari hall, is tracking what we can expect weather-wise out there. kari, how is it looking? >> it's looking like what we have seen throughout the week,

where we start out cloudy and then clears out shaping up to be a nice day. mountain view, temperatures in the upper 50s this morning. jacket weather to start and then definitely short sleeved weather going into the afternoon as we make it into the 70s and even upper 70s in mountain view for today. dublin expected to reach 80 degrees, and we noticed some of the inland valleys are on a warming trend while you will not see that along the coastline. napa reaching 77 degrees. about the same in santa rosa and novato. we'll talk about the weekend coming up in a few minutes. right now, cinthia has a look at where you can find lower gas prices. >> we are definitely getting ready for the weekend and helping people find the cheapest gas this morning. this is all thanks to the numbers people report on gasbuddy.com. we have the arco in mill valley as you are traveling southbound 101 before you get to sausalito,

and that is coming in at 4.35 for a gallon of regular. and then costco on hesperia boulevard at 4.25 for you, and then in the south bay, the great gas has you at 4.19. let's go from the pumps to the roads, and checking out once you get past the bay bridge toll plaza, there's a crash and you can see sensors lighting up, and this has traffic backed up past treasure island and so you are in a wait as they clear the three cars that got into it. and then a car fire, and there was a u-haul that caught fire and chp said it should take another 45 minutes to clear some of the lanes. right now we have got three lanes blocked northbound 280 as they try and clear this scene.

back to you guys. >> thanks, cinthia. 6:10 right now. an old scam with a new twist. next on "today in the bay," the new way con artists are using artificial intelligence to try and extort your money. the fed does as expected and pauses interest rates. the head of the fed, jay powell, makes a misstatement, or does he? we will go out to the futures. this is expected as we expect more ratate hikes ahahead. ♪ ♪♪ snoop deall doublble g respondingng to the dog-e-eat-d world. ththe new ventuture t to helelp bestst f friend. keepep it here o on this thuhur.

thursday morning. let's get you ready for the day. in napa, right now it's 58 degrees and cloudy. we will see a very nice day ahead, gradually clearing by late morning and going from upper 50s to upper 70s by 1:00. could be warmer go into the afternoon. it could go from nice and warm to cooler, and we'll look at

that coming up in a few minutes. let's go to the san mateo bridge this morning, and the latest from the chp log says there could be something on the road between the toll plaza and the incline. i have noticed the taillights. more coming up in a bit. happy thursday to you. stocks will likely open low. the s&p had its highest close in more than a year. record companies are suing twitter saying the social network doesn't crack down on music being used in their post. music companies are suing for more than a quarter billion. speaking of music, the head

economists in sweden said the spike in hotel prices in stockholm kept prices high when beyonce came. inflation is higher there than here. with inflation falling here in the united states, the committee paused interest rate hikes, the first pause in a 15 month string. i like the way powell phrased it, and you may not be entertained but it's rare for us for a fed chair to make a mistake, or pretend to make a mistake. take a listen. >> it's just the idea, we're trying to get this right and if

you think of the two variables and the skip -- i shouldn't call it a skip, but the decision makes sense. >> i mentioned in our 5:00 a.m. newscast, it reminded me of the "west wing," and the president says something on a hot mic, and many viewers said that's season three. i became a big fan through youtube. i must have missed it the first time around. >> i heard a lot of great things about it. >> it's funny. >> it was on for a long time. >> i worked nights at the time. >> yeah, i missed a lot. "survivor," yeah, i missed a lot. >> thanks, scott. if you have not -- if you have, rather, received a scam recently, you are not alone. robocalls are making a comeback and now they have help with

artificial intelligence. analysts say con artists are using technology to trick people and extort them for money, and often times they are often to convince somebody a loved one had been kidnapped. it happened to this woman when she thought he was speaking to her daughter but she was talking to a robot. >> i had a full conversation with her and it was the way she cried and the pacing of her voice and the way she would talk, i never for one second thought it was not her, not once. >> quite frightening. nbc consumer investigator, vicky nguyen, will have more on how you can avoid becoming a victim. that's coming up on the "today" show at 7:00 a.m. the city of gilroy and the parent company of the sharks are

in the process of finalizing an agreement to design and construct an indoor ice rink facility at the gilroy sports park. it will hold two nhl regulation-size ice rinks and a restaurant. they have already hired a project manager, and the construction of that facility will begin before the end of the year. >> that will be a nice addition to the community. and good thing it's indoors because it's hot there. yeah, and now a little humor, and teaming up with snoop dogg and the emphasis on the dog. check this out. >> man, i feel good. could be the food i'm eating. no artificials. or this toy to get my mind right. >> this is from the latest ad campaign and it features snoop

dogg acting as if he were a pet. he's launching his brand-new pet care company. it will have toys, treats, grooming supplies. petco is hoping to score big on this one with the partnership. overall americans spend over $137 billion on their pets just last year. >> i will give them my money. we're regulars there. it's funny how people say you start to look like your dog or your dog looks like you. >> yeah, that has been his thing. he looks like a doberman. >> yeah, he does, snoop dogg. let's get started this morning. it's time to get the dog out and ready for a walk before you head to work. it's cloudy again in san francisco. we will work our way towards sunshine, and we will see it

more quickly for the inland areas and that's where the temperatures will warm up. here we are staying in the 50s for the next few hours. we will be at 60 degrees at 11:00, and that's when we will see the sun peeking outgoing into today with cooler weather there. for the valleys and parts of the south bay, it will be warmer today, reaching 82 in los gatos and in san josé. for the east bay, heading to 81 in danville and 71 in oakland. our high temperatures near the coast, no different than what we have seen recently. only mid-60s there. for half moon bay and daly city reaching 65. and for san francisco, mostly cloudy in the marina district, and we are staying in the 50s. also upper 60s for mill valley, and for ukiah reaching 89

degrees. we are getting another area of low pressure drop into the pacific northwest and that will bring rain for areas further to the north but shift our wind flow and bring back an ocean breeze that will bring down temperatures once again. the climate prediction center is saying for the next two weeks we will continue for lower than normal temperatures across the west and the bay area, and the south will be very hot, especially in texas. our rain outlook is showing the pacific northwest, once again that low will drop in and bring rain further to the north and that will keep it pretty soggy there. take a look at the temperatures respond to the changes. ukiah goes from near 90 degrees today and then 94 tomorrow and then back down. then we will only see a high of about 70 on juneteenth, so a big change over the next several days. we will see our valley

temperatures staying like what we typically see for the end of june, and then go back to early june or late may with those temperatures by the end of the weekend into monday. cinthia, you were seeing delays around daly city? >> yeah, this is northbound 280, and the sensors are picking up sensors around the hickey boulevard. it was a u-haul that caught fire and some of the lanes have been blocked so the police and ambulance can get there. we are keeping an eye on the crash as you make your way into san francisco. this is westbound 80 near 5th street. after the fremont street off-ramp, and the sensor is not red but is yellow all the way to treasure island and beyond into the bay bridge toll plaza. it will take about 20 minutes to make it across the span on the

bay bridge. down in the san mateo bridge, less than a 15-minute commute for you there. back to you. >> thank you. 6:23 right now. working to clear the way. still ahead on "today in the bay," the latest on the interstate collapse in the philadelphia area that has snarled traffic there. we will tell you how it's starting to impact the regional supply chain. and then the u.s. open tees off from the los angeles country club. you can watch all the action here on nbc bay area. coverage will start at 5:00. we are streaming your local news on roku and other streaming platforms, so y

now that is shutdown and it's starting to impact the regional supply chain. the delivery drivers that rely on i-95 five to ten times a day say those delays have a real impact on the clients. >> we depend on the roadways to get where we have to go, and we are a same-day carrier, and we need to get somewhere fast and on-time and if we can't, we might lose a customer. >> 160,000 vehicles rely on the severed section of i-95, and now they are facing 40 miles of detours. coming up next, the top stories we are following for you today, including a large fire causing explosions in the south bay. >> reporter: the fire is not out. you can see crews are still working hard behind us to contain what was a three-alarm fire last night. there are still active fires breaking out this morning and we will give

i heard some explosion sound. my dad thought it was an earth quake at first. right now at 6:35, firefighters go late into the night battling a massive fire at a san josé storage facility. we are live at the scene with an update on containment and the clue that some suggests of how

that fire may have started. the traffic stop that led to one former police officer being charged by prosecutors, and the new response from the chief. bart working to save weekend service. the state stepped in to help, but will it be enough. the looming deadline as the transit agency faces cuts. this is "today in the bay." here we are on friday eve. good thursday morning to you. thanks for joining us. i am laura garcia. >> i am marcus washington. we want to get you started with a look at the forecast. we have a cool start to the morning, but a nice warm-up in store for us? >> yes, especially in the inland valleys. we will see the microclimates spreading out. let's head to dublin with a live look outside where it's cloudy as well but we are seeing breaks in the clouds and temperatures in the upper 50s.

we will see sunshine at 9:00 and sunny skies for the rest of the day with highs reaching into the upper 70s and low 80s for this afternoon. up to 80 degrees in san josé, and 77 today in novato. a look ahead to the weekend forecast and events going on and i will help you make some plans, and that's coming up in a few minutes. >> thank you, kari. an investigation is under way as to what caused explosions and flames and smoke at a storage unit. >> ginger conejero saab is live. crews have been there throughout the night working to contain the fire. >> reporter: that's right, laura and marcus. they say the fire is not out yet as of this morning despite the hard work they have been putting into the fire to contain it throughout the night. take a look behind us. can you see they are still hosing water down on some of the units. there are active fires that i am

told they are working on, and they are being mindful of the wind that has picked up in the area, making sure that doesn't play a factor in a potential spread of the small fires. the cause of the three-alarm fire last night is still being investigated, but it was already sparking intrigue not just because of the flames and smoke but because of the sounds coming from the fire. you can clearly hear it, the popping and crackling of flames. it all started around 6:00 yesterday evening, and you can see the initial explosions caught on camera in the distance. it appears to be fireworks, and that's what people say the blast sounded like. the fire department says the cause is still under investigation and was not able to tell us if the fireworks we have seen around the scene, around the storage unit came

from that facility. >> it's a lot worse than i thought. on the news, they only showed the back end of it so i thought i was safe, and now, here seeing this now and it's still on fire, i know i'm done. >> reporter: that was from the small business owner who had a unit very close or around the units that seem to be hardest hit from the fire. he came this morning seeing it for the first time, you know, getting a little emotional because he says there's about 60 to $80,000 worth of water heaters in that unit that he runs his business out of. the fire captain last night said the arson investigator was on scene and there's the possibility of fireworks playing a factor in this, and, of course, none of that is confirmed as of yet. the good news is all of this is

there are no reported injuries and everybody -- the firefighter chief says everybody is accounted for so that's a bit of a silver lining in all of this. we will continue to monitor the fire and the developments all throughout the day. >> you don't know what is inside any of those units. ginger, thank you for that update. >> we september you an alert when news of the fire first broke, and we will continue to send you updates. download the app to get alerts sent to your phone. and then a police officer body cam video we are about to show you may be jarring. >> step out and face away from me. >> watch the video as i explain here. the department already fired the officer who prosecutors charged this week. newly released video there, body

camera video, from last july showing the police stop. this is when the officer determined the passenger was wanted on a felony report and then the man is resisting the officers as he tried to detain him. so about this time, as you can see right here, the man is getting pushed to the ground and then agreeing to be placed in the patrol car. but he then refuses again to get in, this time saying that he is fearing a panic attack. but that's when the officer is seen in the video kneeing the man in the stomach and even punching him. in a statement antioch's police chief says in part my hope is our community will see the actions of our personnel and investigate and bring this matter to my attention as an expression of their commitment

to accountability. the accused getaway driver is set to have a plea hearing at 9:00 this morning. the second suspect you see there on the right is accused of firing the shot that killed the home depot loss prevention worker. the shooting happened in april at the store on johnson drive. when investigators say she was confronted over stolen items. and then bankman-fried is due back in federal court and expected to ask a judge to throw out 10 of the 13 criminal charges he's facing, and those charges include fraud and conspiracy. the 31-year-old denies all those accusations. bart is expected to make cuts as it faces a budget deadline today, however the transit agency just got a lifeline from state lawmakers,

and $1.1 billion will go to help fund state transit, and the plan rolls back $2 billion in proposed cuts to transit capital projects. last month bart warned it might have to closed stations and eliminate weekend and night service if the state did not step in. even with the news of the funds, bart officials say they will still need to make some cuts. as of this morning, it's still unclear if governor newsom is onboard with the subsidy. a live look at sfo where today you can expect a lot of activity. today's actually expected to be the single busiest travel day since before the start of the pandemic. you can see it peaks today with

nearly 52,000 travelers. meteorologist, kari hall, is here now with an early peek of the weekend holiday forecast. sounds like we won't have to travel far to enjoy nice weather. >> yeah, we will have great weather, but people want to travel and go see dad and you have an extra day off. right now i am seeing a 30-minute delay on average for the washington, d.c. airport. we also have severe storms moving across the south, so that's another area we will be watching. a little closer to home, the flights are all on time and things are looking good and it's nice and dry and we are keeping the mild weather. maybe you are going to l.a. this weekend to cheer on the giants. it will be a cool evening, so pack some of the same clothes you might pack if you were going to oracle park. we are going to see a lot of events going on around the bay

area including the alameda county fair, and gates open tomorrow and we will see comfortably warm weather with highs in the low 80s. with something cooler today at the santa cruz beach boardwalk, free movies on the beach and it's going to be in the mid-50s late in the evening. cinthia, there could be traffic this afternoon in oakland? >> yeah, maybe you are staying put and going over to oakland. we have the athletics goinging on at 12:37 this afternoon. if you are taking a lunch break around that hour, 880, prepare to see backups as people make their way in and out of the ballpark. in santa clara and san josé this weekend we have the graduation ceremony going on for under grads at santa clara university. if you have coffee shops or breakfast places you want to go to, that could be backed up. and taking transit this morning,

the vta is running the bus bridges on the green and blue lines. back to you. >> thank you. 6:41 right now. a new twist in the texas immigration dispute. dozens of migrants are bussed to los angeles, including children. a new battle over undocumented migrants and the new response from the california governor. marcus, a lot of hats in the candidates. and then this report card could have you rethinking your

good thursday morning. let's head over to martinez. 56 degrees. a cool morning but it will clear out quickly. temperatures today will go from mid-50s to upper 70s. another really nice day ahead, and slightly warmer for the inland valleys. a look at the weekend forecast is coming up. and then richmond and san rafael toll plaza, it should

take you about 10 or 12 men's to get from richmond in to marin county. the bay bridge backed up with the crash in san francisco. we'll take a look at that coming up. more than 40 migrants are receiving assistance in southern california after being bussed to an l.a. church under the orders of texas governor abbott. this is abbott's latest move to send busloads of migrants unannounced to so-called sanctuary cities. he tweeted out, quote, small texas boder towns remain over-run and overwhelmed because biden refuses to secure the border. governor newsom's office responded saying instead of demonizing asylum seekers we focus on working with migrants

and together we will make sure the children and families that arrive are safe and welcomed. earlier this month florida governor, ron desantis, ordered two planes carrying about 20 migrants to sacramento, all of whom he said consented ahead of time. washington will get an update on the number of people trying to cross the border this week. >> and scott mcgrew, that number has been falling. >> falling by a lot. good morning. and it's been off the news radar. yes, we have big problems to solve at the border, but the number of migrants custom and border protection deals with, they call them encounters, are down by 11% measured. the situation at the border and inflation going better for biden. the president will meet with heads of big ticketing agencies

at the white house, and they will announce they will tell you the actual price of the ticket from here on out. no hidden fees. that has been a big push for president biden. he calls them junk fees. another candidate for president on the republican side, miami mayor, francis suarez, will be at the reagan library in southern california tonight. he's super popular in miami. elected with more than 85% of the vote. not the first candidate from florida. for trump that's a strategic advantage, because the more candidates to split up the pie, the fewer each one gets in the primary. many of the candidates don't seem to be running against trump. they don't criticize him or his policies or offer different ideas. a republican strategists, a veteran of six presidential campaigns asked if you are not

willing to criticize him, ask yourself why you are running to defeat him? one candidate willing to criticize, trump's former vice president, mike pence. >> my son is a marine. my son-in-law is a navy lieutenant. the very prospect that what is alleged here took place creating an opportunity where highly sensitive classified material could have fallen into the wrong hands even inadvertently, that jeopardizes our national security and puts at risk the men and women of our armed forces. like i said, i can't defend what is alleged but the former president has a right to his day in court. >> indeed, lots more on the trump case coming up on the "today" show. laura? >> thank you, scott. happening today, u.s. health and human services secretary is

scheduled to make stops in oakland and sacramento where he is expected to announce the launch of the health workforce initiative. this is a nationwide initiative the second believes will help boost the health care workforce. he previously served as california's attorney general and before that represented los angeles in the house of representatives. now to the climate in crisis. five bay area beaches are listed among the post polluted anywhere on the west coast. the environmental group just revealed the top ten beach bummer list, and the five peninsula beaches are included, linda mar beach, and marlin park, erckenbrack park and pillar point harbor. that list is based on the amount of harmful bacteria in the ocean. and there could be something in the water at one virginia

southbound, where the home depot and target area spot is, a car is blocking the number three lane and the bumper can be in the way, and once you get past union city it's smooth sailing. back to you. >> thank you. greater police enforcement leading to more arrests in the area surrounding san francisco's mid market area according to the governor's office. since the start of may, up to 10 more chp officers are there, and it has led to dozens of arrests, and the seizure of 4 kilograms of fentanyl. they are trying to clean up that area where so many businesses are closing their doors. crews are still working to
