sacramento. bay area cities where speeders may soon be ticketed without ever being stopped. decision day for a closely-watched pay raise. oakland leaders are weighing the city's first salary hike for its mayor in a decade. ahead, the backlash and the issues opponents believe should instead be top priority. also, heading into rarely seen territory, the staggering new power ball jackpot now that, spoiler alert, you did not win last night's drawing. nobody did. this is "today in the bay." and that includes us. so we're here for you. we would be anyway, though, at least to say good-bye. thanks so much for joining us. i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. we're going to get a look at the forecast in just a bit. mike, you've got a serious crash this morning? >> major crash, blocking the entire freeway westbound 580. there's the east bay and it's usually the bay bridge we focus on early, but it is the richmond

bridge toward san rafael where all lanes are blocked. a pedestrian was reportedly on 580. their life was lost as a result of this crash and the freeway is blocked, also. this is somewhere west of richmond parkway. chp is not giving us a lot of other information as they're busy working on other cases right now. the scene is active. they've called in a tow to clear. for now, all lanes are blocked. they're hoping to open two of them soon. i don't know whether you can get on at castro street. it sounded like you could from the initial call, but maybe not. it doesn't look like things are building up, so let's just say you can get on at castro, the last entrance just before the bridge. we're starting out with a cool morning across the bay area, at least cool for now, temperatures range anywhere from mid-50s in san francisco to low 50s in much of the north bay, to upper 60s in vacaville this morning as you get ready to step

out the door. here is a look at high temperatures for this afternoon, it's going to be warm in the tri-valley, but we're coming out of the 90s like yesterday, and we're going to see temperatures in san jose reaching into the low 80s and mid-70s for the peninsula. and then looking at the east bay with high temperatures up to about 70, low 60s in san francisco. we'll talk about a warm-up in our forecast coming up in a few minutes. new overnight, san francisco police investigating a deadly shooting inside a residential hotel along the 6th street corridor. it happened about 6:30 last night at the seneca hotel on 6th between market and mission. the victim has not been identified. so far police have not made any arrests. happening today, oakland leaders will decide whether or not its mayor will get a significant and controversial bump in pay. "today in the bay"'s bob redell is live this morning. bob, how much money are we talking about, and why now? >> reporter: good morning to

you, marcus. we're talking about a potential $75,000 raise in salary, currently mayor of oakland, sheng thao, she makes just under $203,000 a year. later today the city council will vote on whether or not to raise her salary to almost $278,000 a year. now, this is not a number that was pulled out of thin air. the city charter requires that the mayor should make no less than 70% and no more than 90% of the average salaries of city managers of six comparable california cities. in spite of this requirement, a number of people and organizations are against this potential raise. they point out the city is currently facing a record deficit of $360 million over the next two years, our own scott budman spoke with the president of the oakland branch of the naacp. she's against the salary increase and questions the timing of the raise for a mayor

who has only been on the job since january. >> but not at six months, you don't have a chief of police, you don't have a fire chief, crime is up high. i mean, you can't go down to jack london square anymore without someone breaking into your car. >> reporter: by the way, it's been ten years since the city council has raised the salary for the mayor of oakland. that vote is scheduled during a city council meeting that begins at 2:00 this afternoon. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> we will be watching. thank you. happening today in hayward, religious groups plan to protest the recent removal of a cross. the cross went up in 1971 when the land in albany hill park was owned by a private developer, more recently the city took over the land. while debates over the cross have spanned years, the city quietly removed the cross last month. a hearing is scheduled for today

and will decide if that's legal. cross supporters are promising to protest outside of the courthouse. a live look right now at some of the major roadways where it's possible cameras may one day soon automatically record speeders who would then get tickets. at least that's the idea behind the bill now working its way through the state legislature. similar bills have fallen short in the past but this one recently sailed through the state senate judiciary committee. mayor matt mahan in may touted the bill where anyone moving more than 11 miles per hour over the speed limit will receive a violation. if the bill does become law, it would set up a pilot program in cities including san jose, san francisco and oakland. and breaking this morning, overseas north korea has detained a u.s. soldier. at this point the u.n. command will only say a u.s. citizen somehow crossed into the

demilitarized zone while touring a joint security area. a source tells nbc that it's actually a u.s. soldier. the united nations is now apparently working to resolve the situation. nbc news did reach out to the white house for comment, but so far they've not responded. turning to decision 2024, talk of a possible third-party candidate is already starting to shake up the race for president, even though the election is still more than a year away. the talks as both democrats and republicans are fearing it could pull votes as staffing shakeups and financial hurdles plague gop candidates. "today in the bay"'s drew petrimoux joins us live. >> reporter: in past elections this has been an issue that has played a prominent role in politics. polls show voters are not thrilled about the prospects of a rematch between president

biden and former president trump, with that scenario seeming more and more likely, talk of a third-party bid is getting louder. at a monday event in the key state of new hampshire, joe manchin, the wild card democratic senator from west virginia, toying with the possibility of challenging his own party's sitting president with an interview with vaughn hillyard. >> i'm not taking anything off the table. >> reporter: the organization no labels is threatening to run a third-party candidate if the 2024 presidential race comes down to a rematch between president biden and former president trump. >> for us to do the same old thing is, like, a little bit insane. >> reporter: a biden/trump rematch is appearing more likely, trump with a commanding lead in the primary. governor ron desantis thought to be the most formidable challenger firing campaign staffers in an order to save money. >> we're not seeing the magic and i think that's caused alarm. >> reporter: hoping to change

the tide, desantis on the chain trail talking issues like his support for israel. >> we always stood up for israel's right to defend itself. they are besieged with terrorism. you have iran looming, you have all these problems that they have to face. >> reporter: republican contenders mike pence and nikki haley also pledging their support, while attacking the president. >> for the sake of america and for israel, we need to make joe biden a one-term president. >> reporter: for republican candidates trying to close the cap with former president trump, the time is now. primary voters start heading to the polls in just six months. now, most experts don't see a path to victory for a third-party candidate, but there are worries within the major parties that a potential third-party run could play spoiler, taking away voters from their candidates. back to you. >> it will be interesting to see

how it turns out, drew, thanks for the latest. it's time to talk about some money, because the power ball jackpot is now moving into historic territory now that, wait for it, no one won last night. >> isn't that crazy? that means $1 billion will be at stake in tomorrow's drawing. that's still just the third largest in the game's history t. power ball not your only big chance to win. tonight you can win $640 million by hitting the mega millions jackpot. you can do it! >> anything is possible. like those temperatures going down. >> we're more likely to win in that category. >> i think we've been winning pretty good compared to the heat they've been talking about elsewhere and the big stories we've seen nationally. then we take a look at our clear view, our cool morning start as we take a live look outside in

san jose. let's head to the north bay, looking at novato, temperatures in the mid-50s. we're going to see temperatures starting to warm up by 10:00 and then the rest of the day we're looking at sunshine as we head for the upper 70s and low 80s, and santa rosa reaching 84 degrees and low 60s in san francisco. so, yes, the temperatures are coming down. only upper 70s fose and mid-80s for the tri-valley. we'll talk about another warm-up in a few minutes. mike has a look at lower gas prices. >> i like my gas prices like my temperatures, on the lower side. unfortunately, not happening. alameda county has $4.09, diamond gas and mart on south front road in livermore. in the north bay, solano county has a few at $4.11. tennessee gas on vallejo in the middle. sunnyvale, $4.19 at matilda. roadways, one major crash, a

deadly crash which continues to have all lanes westbound 580 reportedly closed. judging by the cameras in the area and the plan they were going to open two lanes, i believe they have at least one, possibly two lanes open past the scene at richmond parkway. watch for flares, flashing lights. i believe you can get to the bridge as you leave richmond and head toward san rafael. back to you. >> thank you, mike. the south bay losing one of its most prestigious restaurants, despite receiving the coveted michelin star. still ahead on "today in the bay," we're going to tell you why you'll still be able to get a taste of what made this restaurant so popular. restaurant so popular. it sous like a pranknd

good tuesday morning. right now at 5:14,'s palo alto and look at our morning trend. we're starting out in the upper 50s, it's all clear, and it's going to be a very mild day, only 70 at lunchtime. we're enjoying a bit of a cooldown for the valleys. we'll talk more about that and what's ahead with hotter temperatures in a few minutes. and you are looking at the toll plaza for the bridge from richmond to san rafael. it is early and this is a definite sign, there is traffic getting past the last on-ramp. so i believe at least using

surface streets you can get past this crash. i believe they've changed the lane status. i'll keep poking around and refreshing that report from chp. good morning. very happy tuesday. analysts at goldman sachs are revising their forecast for a recession, saying it's less likely. this after we got encouraging inflation numbers last week. numbers are strong, prices are lower. now, interest rates are up and that has us watching banks as they report profits. bank of america, charles schwab report today. banks have to pay their depositors more interest, that's cutting into profits. now, they're hoping you will keep your money in free checking where they don't have to pay you. speaking of the economy, we get retail sales figures coming up in about 15 minutes. they jumped last month. people are spending. the real estate company cushman and wakefield says more than one-third of offices in oakland are vacant.

analysts saying vacancy rates hit 35%. there have been no big departures to blame. it's just companies living in dribs and drabs. the biden administration today will announce a new program putting government seals of approval on some internet connected appliances, things like connected refrigerators or thermo stats. more and more things are connected to the internet. and while google makes sure the nest thermostat is safe from hackers, the people who make your internet connected coffeemaker or wireless security cameras might not be as careful. you're careful about putting antivirus software on your computer, you make your wi-fi router password something complicated, meantime your toaster is letting the bad guys in. shopify is cutting down on costs of meetings by showing employees how much those meetings cost. a calculator attached to the company's online calendar takes an average of how much money in

general those you invite to the meeting make. it then displays that cost to the company in the calendar invite itself. as a shopify official points out, nobody would expense a $500 dinner, but they do schedule $500 meetings several times a day. so it makes you rethink, do we really need this meeting, because wasted time is wasted money. >> it's costing them. >> thanks, scott. san jose's only michelin starred restaurant has announced it will close its doors at the end of the year. adega opened in the little portugal neighborhood back in 2015. it earned a michelin star the following year. it's known for portuguese seafood and an extensive wine selection and limits of 25 diners per night. because of that, the owners have decided to shift gears and focus on their other restaurant, which is said to be more affordable. this week it just received a michelin bib recommendation for

affordable three-course dining. the current property will be turned into a second location next year. trending this morning, who says a stew ever has to stop cooking? >> i don't know. someone who doesn't like it burnt. >> that's what one new york city woman is asking. others are certainly taking notice. she's been perpetually cooking and serving the same potato leek stew over the last 40 days. visitors walk in and give her a little pinch of this, pinch of that, some garlic. she says the taste depends on the day, it changes. but she's calling it a perpetual stew summer and documenting it all on tiktok. >> i now have a cauldron, people

brought a bunch of ingredients today, it was heavy on potatoes and lentils, it got great reviews. cheers to that. >> i think you're going to need a bigger pot. if you think the idea is something new, historians say british peasants commonly kept the stew pot full for most of the year, in part to keep foodborne illness at bay. one restaurant in bangkok has been simmering the same stew for nearly 50 years. >> some restaurants still use the same grease. >> i guess so. >> it adds character. >> not flavor, but flavah. >> i could have told you before i read the story, kari isn't going to try it. >> so many hands touching the food and it's stewing for days. that does not sound good at all.

>> cook up the germs. let's move on. we're going to see some cooler temperatures. i wouldn't go for the hot stew today. we're seeing some cooler temperatures coming in for some of us that have had some really high heat, so we are going to have a couple of days of some milder weather and then we'll also see some smoke and haze return today. from the wildfires that are burning in oregon. we have more heat ahead, 90s later this week. let's zoom into the south bay and take a look at where we're headed today. morgan hill reaching 88 degrees with cupertino reaching 73 -- i should say 83 there, 84 in walnut creek and oakland in the upper 60s. still a wide range in temperatures across the bay area. san mateo reaching 74 and some upper 50s and low 60s for most of san francisco. in the north bay, temperatures range from 75 in mill valley to

97, 98, clear lake and ukiah are going to be the hot spots. let's talk about our air quality, why it's going to look hazy again today. we're seeing the wildfires continuing to burn in oregon. it's coming right down into the bay area, and the worst of it may be in parts of the east bay as well as the south bay as we go into this afternoon into the evening. and a look at our seven-day forecast shows that temperatures take a dip with highs mainly in the mid-80s for today and tomorrow, and then we're right back to the 90s, temperatures peak on friday, reaching 97 degrees. and it's still going to be a hot weekend, while san francisco is staying nice and cool, mostly 60s throughout the next several days. mike, what's the update for that crash in richmond? >> we have progress. i want to show the build for highway 37 and little blips for highway 4, so there is a standard pattern for most of the bay with those two spots with the sensor changes.

the deadly crash is still there. someone died as a result of this crash. we don't want to forget the loss of life. we have lanes open and traffic is flowing and the update says the tow truck is on scene and there was traffic control in the area. i believe that's why when we take a look at the camera, we saw basically no traffic and then a burst of traffic. traffic is slowly passing the scene, getting toward the bridge to san rafael. the rest of the bay moves smoothly. back to you. next, nbc bay area responds. >> a shopper says a cashier offered him a deal worth about 100 bucks but it didn't quite add up the way the customer add up the way the customer expected. introducucing togo's's new frech dip p sandwicheses.

good morning. perhaps you have been there, at a department store checkout, the cashier offers a discount to open a new charge card. tarik was at a macy's, and he says the deal was open a new charge card and get 20% off his first purchases. this was the offer on the website. he said yes, but on his first statement his first charges weren't discounted. by his math, macy's owed him about 100 bucks. he tried to fix it himself but couldn't and shared it with us and shared his receipts. we did some math and contacted macy's hq.

a rep didn't explain what went wrong but did confirm this was the offer and it was valid for the purchases. macy's took action and told us they have revolved his concerns and at macy's our customers and colleagues are our highest priority. he did get his money back. macy's credited his account $107. those split decisions at the cash register, do i apply for a new credit card, get the protection plan, they might seem stressful. if you're feeling pressure, we recommend taking a time-out. let the next person in line check out while you weigh your options. tarik shared his complaint and his photos on our website. you can, too. scan this qr code to fill out our consumer complaint form online. >> thanks, chris. next, the top stories we're following today, including a vote on new affordable housing. in this case, the proposal also includes a brand new school campus. we're going t break downo t

and in-n-out rolls out a new health policy. why californians may never notice a difference. this is "today in the bay." >> very good tuesday morning to you. 5:30 right now. thanks for starting your day with us. i'm laura garcia. >> i'm marcus washington. time to get a check of what's going on with the forecast. meteorologist kari hall has been tracking that. i'm liking the temperatures going down and down. are they going to go back up? >> of course. we're going to have another wave of heat as we lead into the weekend, but we are starting out with temperatures mostly in the 50s this morning. 55 in sonoma, while you head over to the inland east bay, we're starting out in the low to mid-60s, concord at 60 degrees and it's 55 in san francisco. a look at morgan hill, how the morning will shape up as you get your day started, in the upper 50s it's all clear and we'll see a lot of sunshine today as our temperatures head for the upper 70s, eventually reaching into the mid to upper 80s today. the peninsula will see a high of

about 75 degrees and mid-80s in the tri-valley, while san francisco will keep it cool with some low 60s there. mike has an update on the major crash in richmond. >> this is westbound 580, just past richmond parkway. for folks familiar with the area, there was a deadly crash that happened about 3:30 this morning. actually, it was a pedestrian on the freeway for some reason, hit by a car. chp investigation has to continue there, but a couple of lanes are open. the tow truck is there, the traffic control, and they're continuing with that aspect. now, i do know the coroner has to arrive before they can clear the scene. you do have traffic that is heading in that direction, still open for the commute. slowing for highway 37, 4, that is typical about this time. also typical, traffic breaks for north 680 out of sunol. back to you. >> thanks for the latest. only on nbc bay area, a small robbery money-wise is still causing big-time outrage in oakland, in particular in the

latino community. it has a lot to do with the unfortunate victim who still isn't sure he'll be able to return to his job. >> "today in the bay"'s kris sanchez is here with the violent shakedown of a beloved ice cream man. >> reporter: this is a vendor, an 80-year-old man who has shaken down by two men in broad daylight over $120, and it's not the first time it's happened. this is the video posted to the citizen app, those two men jumped out of a car as don juan was selling ice cream in oakland's fruitvale district yesterday morning. he asked us not to use his last name because he's afraid. you see the men search for money all over his body and don juan said this is the eighth time he's been robbed in ten years. to him, this time was the scariest. even if you don't understand spanish, you can hear the emotion in his voice as he describes it. [ speaking in a non-english language ]

>> reporter: don juan told us that one of the two men did have a gun that he pointed at him, yelling at him not no move. when the two men took off, don juan still had his ice cream, but he said he couldn't work because he was too afraid. he told our telemundo partners that he did not have money to eat yesterday, nor to sent money to his family in peru, his son has autism. oakland police say they are investigating. now, on saturday community members will hold an ice cream sale in fruitvale to benefit don juan, and as nearly 400 people have donated $8,600 to help don juan through a gofundme account. i can post that link on my social pages if you want to take a look. >> i know a lot of people will be coming out.

thanks so much. a popular fast food chain in-n-out is ditching the mask for its workers in some states in the name of what it's calling improving customer service. california not one of the states where the policy is taking effect. we have a map right here. you're going to see that in arizona, nevada, colorado and texas. so that new requirement takes effect august 14th, and a recent memo to employees says that it's being done so workers can, quote, show their smiles. also medical exemptions will apply here. one customer told us she no longer worries about workers wearing masks. >> if i were to have some sort of analysis that showed me something different that i should be more cautious, then maybe i would choose not to come into in-n-out. >> masks will still be allowed for california in-n-out workers. the masks must be company issued.

new developments this morning in the story that last week brought a tear to the eyes of many beer lovers. last call for the historic anchor brewing company. now there's a push to try to keep the beer flowing. ginger conejero saab joins us live in san francisco. this all starts with one man and a mission. >> reporter: that's right, laura. good morning to you. there were a lot of reactions to last week's news of the historic brewery and beer brand in san francisco, anchor brewery, closing up shop after 127 years. now, a local man who also happens to be a neighbor has decided to put his money and those people's money that he's pulled so far where his mouth is. take a look at mike walsh. he is an investor who has helped finance hundreds of companies. for the past 30 years, he also happens to be anchor's neighbor and now he says he wants to buy

it. walsh says he wishes he made an offer to buy anchor brewing back in 2017 but didn't know it was for sale. that's when sapporo bought the company and its brands. the company is in trouble again citing economic pressures and a decline in sales since 2016 and the aftermath of the pandemic as the main reasons for why it's closing up shop. over the past few days walsh has been reaching out to a number of potential investors and he says nearly 30 are interested in joining him and they want to present a compelling offer. >> it's been really exciting. actually pretty emotional, too. i wasn't expecting to have this outpouring of interest and then just of emotion from a variety of people. >> reporter: now, walsh also launched this website, raising the anchor, where he says even more people are reaching out to help.

he's already thought of ways to revamp the brand and the brewery, including adding live music and going back to the company's original branding. now, anchor is seeking an alternative to filing for chapter 7 or chapter 11. they'll soon begin the abc process, that's assignments for the benefit of creditors. that process is set to start soon. i'm told that's expected by the end of the month when anchor and sapporo will give up control and when bids can be submitted through a liquidator. a lot still needs to happen before any big change to what's been announced, but this morning it's good to hear that there are moves to keep the beer brand anchored here in san francisco. >> literally. anchored quite literally. we'll see if he becomes a hometown hero in his efforts. thank you so much, ginger. new options may soon open up for san franciscans trying to make it in the bay. supervisors today voting on the legislation calling for several hundred new homes.

that measure proposals new housing on three properties in the area surrounding opera plaza. it would also include a new campus for the french american international school. it's a high school. 40% of the 671 proposed homes would be considered permanently affordable. district 5 supervisor dean preston authored the measure. taking a peek outside, the sun is already arriving over the bay area. kari has a look at our temperatures for today. still a mild one? >> yeah, nice and mild, starting out cool and slowly warming up. this is what we're used to seeing this time of year. as we start out in oakland, a live look outside, a few low clouds and that marine layer moving in, keeping temperatures cool. we're in the upper 50s to start and it will be very slow to warm up as we get peeks of sunshine over the next several hours. only headed for the upper 60s today, 79 in martinez, and we'll see some low 60s in san

francisco as we are going to see a stronger ocean breeze that's making it to the inland areas as well and keeping those temperatures nice and low. san jose reaching 79. as we take you to tomorrow, it's only slightly warmer with santa rosa hitting 85 degrees and 77 in napa. on thursday we see a warming trend starting to ramp back up with fairfield hitting 97 degrees. we'll talk more about the warmer temperatures ahead coming up. mike, you've been tracking a crash. what's the update? >> we're looking at the crash heading to the bridge from richmond to san rafael. i wanted to give a glimpse of the bay bridge. the metering lights not on yet. we see slowing above there, to the north on highway 37 and more build for highway 4. a typical pattern, although a new crash on the eastshore freeway may be in the westbound commute direction. we're looking at westbound 580, which still has a couple of

lanes open. they continue to change the sensors, but you can get through heading toward the bridge from richmond to san rafael. a deadly crash happened at 3:30 this morning and we're still having an investigation conducted there. we're looking at the rest of the traffic flow and everything is moving nicely. we have the cleanup that continues as they're picking up northbound 680 from overnight road work. an issue on the rails, vta continues with track work so the details for the orange, green and blue lines, and also money service, embarcadero and west portal will continue to have stoppage at 9:30 as they do work. back to you. >> thanks, mike. unraveling a mystery capturing national attention. an alabama woman makes an unusual 911 call, disappears, and then later returns home days later. coming up on "today in the bay," what her parents are saying. the president of israel headed to the white house, but

trauma of people just making completely false allegations about her. >> they're also asking people to stop speculating with the investigation still open. you can see the full interview on the "today" show at 7:00 a.m. right after "today in the bay." a quarter until 6:00 right now. the president of israel arrives at the white house today. >> scott mcgrew, it is the prime minister of israel and it's causing some controversy. >> it is. good morning to you. israel has a president and a prime minister, a number of countries do, russia, south africa, france. in israel the president doesn't really have a lot of power, and it's the president herzog visiting the white house today. he'll speak to congress tomorrow. that's led to a lot of pressure on the white house to invite the prime minister of israel, the guy with the power, a much more household name, benjamin netanyahu. the white house says it's extended an invitation for netanyahu to visit later. the u.s. and israel have a very

tight relationship but it's been strained lately as netanyahu makes moves that many have seen as anti-democratic, trying to slash the power of the judicial branch. millions of americans oppose the move. this was the scene earlier this year, huge protests, but these actually happen every saturday. there's a key vote in just a few days. u.s. officials are careful to point out just because they've extended this new invitation doesn't mean the u.s. government doesn't have serious concerns about the future of democracy and the balance of power in israel. other news, the georgia supreme court has ruled it will not step in to block the investigation of the possible prosecution of donald trump in that state. unanimous ruling, rejecting trump's lawyers' arguments. trump there under investigation for election interference. there's a hearing today as well in florida in the federal felony investigation into the documents.

trump accused of keeping, hiding classified documents, and even allegedly showing some of them to people who should not have had them. the sketches are from the first hearing recently before judge aileen cannon, one of several who have ruled for trump as the case got under way. her opinions caught a lot of experts off guard. indeed, the court above her reversed her. those are two of four criminal cases against trump we know about. there's the case in new york that got attention because it's the first time that a former president was arraigned. it is a federal felony case for documents. then two were charges have yet to be filed, maybe won't be. the federal case over january 6th and the georgia state case. lastly, the biden administration will announce a new program today setting federal standards for internet-connected devices. we'll talk more about that as we talk business in about 30 minutes. >> looking forward to it. thanks. so the giants are waking up this morning with some

unfinished business, namely yesterday's game against the reds. so the big winner yesterday, mother nature. check this out. so the arrival of rain, a member of the grounds crew, after tripping, actually got trapped under the tarp before getting out. so two hours later, the game was suspended in the eighth inning with the score tied at 2-2. so that means the team will finish the game first before playing today's scheduled game. so also trending this morning, many people could never picture themselves working when they're 101 years old. >> but many people are not this one special ohio woman with some secrets about staying young at heart. >> where is the fountain of youth? >> florida. >> florida. the fountain of youth is in florida? >> in st. augustine.
