this is in oakland as people make their way southbound 880. the first one right there at the 29th avenue off-ramp around the fruitvale area. we're already seeing the sensors backing up a little bit. once you get past the first scene you'll be met with another crash, also on southbound 880. this is at the 10th avenue on-ramp, a box truck and a car got into it. there could be some debris on the roadway. chp was saying there was liquid on the floor. so we're going to keep an eye on 880 and i'll bring you updates. >> we'll check back with you. we continue to follow developing news in the south bay where a wildfire continues to burn in the east foothills over san francisco. there has been some improvement, but homes are still threatened. >> bob redell joins us live from the scene. are you seeing any progress this morning? >> reporter: i personally haven't, we're just getting the sun up. we believe there was progress

overnight. we didn't see flames driving up clayton road, over the east foothills in san jose. earlier this morning we didn't see flames, which is not unusual for a wildfire. they usually suppress overnight. we did see flashing lights in the hills, which means they're on the scene trying to keep this tamped down. the clayton fire started yesterday afternoon and by the evening the fire departments were able to stop the fire from spreading. as of 5:00 last night, cal fire says the fire was just 20% contained, but we believe the firefighters have made progress since then. at the time, cal fire says around 30 homes were threatened, 66 acres burned. there were evacuation warnings, not orders, in place for people living near three springs road. >> make sure you're aware there's going to be a lot of moving equipment in and out of the area. keep your head on a swivel and try to be safe. >> reporter: san jose fire department tells us no

structures were damage in this fire. cal fire says the cause is still under investigation. reporting live here in the east foothills over san jose, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> thanks for the latest, bob. a sad update this morning out of the east bay, we have now learned that an 8-year-old boy shot on a freeway in oakland last month is paralyzed. he was struck by a stray bullet on 580 on july 14th. the family's gofundme page says bullet and bone fragments were lodged in his spinal cord, paralyzing him from the neck down. the family is preparing for asa to go home and say it will likely cost about a quarter million dollars in the next few months. the costs include modifications to their home and to their car, rehab, education, and 24-hour care. asa is one of seven children who have been shot on bay area freeways in the last few years. police have not said whether

they've made any arrests in this shooting. >> that incident really changed their life. thank you. former president trump back at his new jersey home after being arraigned and arrested yesterday. trump pleaded not guilty t multiple felonies related to efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. "today in the bay"'s brie jackson joins us live in washington this morning. so how soon can we expect to see trump actually back in court? >> reporter: good morning, laura. so august 28th, that is the day that we expect former president trump to return to court. meanwhile, on thursday during that court hearing, the judge warned president trump or former president trump of the consequences of speaking about this case, adding that it is a crime to try to influence jurors or to threaten witnesses. former president donald trump pleading not guilty to charges related to efforts to overturn 2020 election results. >> this was never supposed to

happen in america. >> reporter: trump stood before the judge facing four criminal counts, including conspiracy to defraud the u.s. government and conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. prosecutors argue he schemed to keep himself in power after losing the 2020 election. the current gop front-runner claims, without evidence, that the case is an effort to interfere with his chances of winning the 2024 presidential race. >> so if you can't beat them, you persecute or prosecute them. >> reporter: some of the officers who defended the u.s. capitol on january 6th attended thursday's arraignment. >> most of the witnesses that have been corroborating all the action or inaction that he did or diplomat do have been republican themselves. >> reporter: republican candidates are weighing in. >> i do think that on this same set of facts anyone not named trump would not have been

indicted. >> it also reflects the seriousness of the issue the voters have to face in 2024. >> reporter: voters are divided. >> for them to nitpick him to death is a crime against our country. >> i would like to see my party open their eyes to see what's going on, to cut ties with him and move forward with other candidates. >> reporter: if convicted, the charges could lead to a lengthy prison sentence for the former president. former president donald trump has been hit with 78 felony counts in three different cases, laura. >> so interesting, the history that's playing out right before our eyes. brie jackson live from washington, thank you so much. now, the justice department wants to move quickly on the latest case. the judge yesterday says she intends to set a trial date at that hearing later this month. what about the other two cases? don't forget about those. the criminal trial into the hush money case in new york starts on march 25th of next year, just

weeks after super tuesday. and may 20th of next year the federal criminal trial in the classified documents case will start. trump's legal team is expected to continue to push to delay all three trials until after the 2024 presidential election. researchers are one step closer to a drug that would prevent rsv in babies. a cdc panel voted to recommend the drug yesterday to treat babies up until 19 months of age. it's similar to the existing preventive rsv vaccine, but it would be the first rsv-specific preventative drug approved for babies. the cdc director must formally recommend the shot before it can go to the public. who wants to be a billionaire. don't forget to buy tickets. tonight you have a chance to become one. no one had the numbers for tuesday's drawing. the jackpot up to $1.25 billion. that's right, with a b. with a cash option of over $625

for 4.5% for the year, but it's mostly good news. speaking of growth, the mexican peso is growing in strength compared to the dollar, up about 14% in 2023. currencies move against each other all the time and their upsides to a stronger peso, weaker dollar. a stronger peso means a mexican consumer buying american products gets more for his money, which increases our exports. but mexican products become more expensive for americans. the most notable change is probably for remittances, the money people send to mexico from america to help their families back home. that totaled about $58 billion last year, but that money is not going as far. speaking of money, wells fargo says it's aware of some people who deposited money on thursday direct deposit are not seeing their deposits in their accounts. wells fargo telling nbc they're working on a resolution. it's not the first time they've

starting to see some 90s on the map with antioch reaching 92 degrees, 85 in martinez and 73 in hayward. noticed that the inner bay, the coastline is still looking nice and mild with temperatures in the mid-60s for half moon bay, and in san francisco it will reach into the upper 60s in the mission district and low 60s for the outer sunset. in the north bay, low 60s near the coast in bodega bay and 93 degrees in ukiah. and it will be in the upper 70s for napa, but mainly 80s for the rest of the north bay. looking at what to do this weekend, this evening we have music on the square, redwood city. it's going to be in the low 70s and then going into the evening temperatures cool off quickly. so bring the jacket, because things will change while you're sitting out there enjoying live music. we also talked about this at linda mar beach in pacifica, you may want to head to the

coastline. it will be much cooler, temperatures going from mid-50s in the morning to low 60s with peeks of sunshine through 4:00. the inland valleys will have hot temperatures this weekend. take a look at fairfield going to 94 tomorrow and peaking at 100 degrees on sunday. then there will be a quick drop in temperatures into the middle of next week. so overall our seven-day forecast shows a quick spike in temperatures, some weekend heat, followed by some milder weather, as more kids are heading back to school next week. san francisco provides that cool place to hang out with low 70s for the weekend. cinthia has been tracking multiple crashes, especially in the east bay. >> we have two going on right now on southbound 880, as people make their way through oakland. the first is around the fruitvale avenue on-ramp, the number one lane is blocked right there as chp deals not only with a crash but liquid that spilled on the road.

once you get past that, there is one in the clearing stages around the 10th avenue on-ramp. that box truck and the car got into it. if you want to avoid this mess altogether, you can go around lake merritt and then hop on 580 and make your way through the east bay. let's go to the south bay, i saw this crash, as people make their way out of morgan hill, this is around the tennant avenue shoulder, it's blocked as people make their way northbound on 101, a little bit of a build. as kari was mentioning, there is dense fog around the golden gate bridge. chp wants to make sure anyone coming through it are turning on their low beams and driving safely. back to you. >> it is foggy out there. >> very foggy. 6:21 right now. coming up next, nbc bay area responds. >> he's out 1,500 bucks, she's out 5 grand and the business responses are weak. they called

chris chmura is here with two recent wins. >> good friday morning. our two cases are about 90 miles apart with one common thread. they needed us to go the extra mile. let's start in the south bay. angel in san jose was battling a bank over a bogus check that a fraudster deposited into her account. the crook parked the money there for a short time, then took it back out. the bank decided angel was in on the fraud and froze the $5,000 legitimate dollars in her account. she explained she had nothing to do with it, but that didn't work. angel asked us to intervene. we did. the bank then returned her 5 gr now to our telemundo 48 responde files and a north bay viewer, jose was fighting a dentist. he says he canceled a $1,500 treatment plan a year ago and the dentist promised a refund. that didn't happen despite repeated calls. so he asked consumer investigator arlen fernandez and her team for help. they contacted the dentist and jose got his $1,500 back.

"today in the bay"'s ginger conejero saab joins us live in studio. we all know there's a big problem in the city. >> that's right. we've heard about a revolving door between arrests and prosecution, some people have blamed the mayor and other people in city leadership, but not as often do we hear the problems on the street aren't getting better because of judges on the bench. san francisco d.a. jenkins says the biggest roadblock to cleaning up the fentanyl and crime crisis in the city are the courts who let dealers off the hook. this was a big point made last night when a community of people in san francisco demanded answers at st. anthony's foundation in the tenderloin. police chief bill scott and the sheriff and d.a. jenkins were there. the d.a. telling the crowd dealers who go to trial are in and out sometimes in just hours. she also says she wants repeat offenders to be detained while awaiting trial, but only 16 of 100 requests have been granted. >> they can see the same person out the next day, not because my

office is failing to do its job. we're going in, filing these motions, arguing about the deadliness of fentanyl and about the dangerousness of this conduct, and yet the judges are ignoring it. >> we are nearly where we were all of last year, and we're just at the beginning of august, with drug sales arrests. we're arresting people using in public, we barely did that at all last year. >> chief scott saying arrests have been up with the help of chp and federal agencies like the dea. their help has led to about 1,000 narcotics dealings arrests, mostly in the tenderloin and soma districts. meanwhile, the public continuing to voice their outrage over what they are experiencing in their neighborhoods. they say things are becoming more and more violent. the police will continue to hear from the public today. they are scheduled to conduct another town hall, this time virtually, at 3:00 in the afternoon.

that one involving an officer-involved shooting on july 26th. still a very much developing topic in san francisco. >> it's been ongoing for so long. thank you, ginger. this morni hazardo crews arontinuin to n up emicalund in an east bay home. they weriscovered in a back yard shed and prompted evacuations of homes within a six-block radius. the evacuations were lifted more than 24 hours later, except for five homes, those folks still out. firefighters say the homeowner died several months ago and his brother was clearing out the home when he noticed an odor and called 911. in all, 600 different chemicals were discovered during that search. the investigation is still under way. happening today, the man accused of posting a deadly stabbing on facebook in san mateo will be back in court. martin mechikoff will have a plea hearing today. he's accused of killing a woman

a federal judge has given the biden administration more time to adjust its immigration policies. >> scott mcgrew joins us now. the court had told the white house its ruling preventing a lot of migrants from claiming asylum was too tough. >> they said the policy that required migrants who pass through mexico to apply for asylum there first, before applying in the united states, wasn't fair. the court said it had to go. the news this morning, the court has extended the time it has given the biden administration to figure out what to do instead. the policy was supposed to end today. the biden administration, like the trump administration before it, was trying to use that rule to slow down the number of people claiming asylum at the border by simply making it harder to apply. but the courts pointed out that's not what american law says. american law, the way congress set it up, says if you make it to the border, you can apply for asylum, no strings attached. if you want to change the law, the court said convince congress

to do something about it. smaller crowds this time around as donald trump was arraigned for the third time, this time in federal court in washington for his alleged actions trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election. former president trump spoke shortly thereafter. >> this is a persecution of a political opponent. this was never supposed to happen in america. >> now, as we watch this case move forward, it's important to remember what the indictment actually says. it says trump and six co-conspirators took actions, like setting up panels of fake electors to defraud the united states and quash the true vote. actions, not words. but many defending trump are redirecting the argument, claiming the accusations are about what trump said. here is an example. take a listen to the speaker of the house and a brief clip from fox news. >> you're entitle to do question whether it was honest or not. that's the uniqueness of the first amendment.

that's the uniqueness of america. but you know what, you shouldn't be prosecuted for your thoughts. and the difference here is when hillary clinton said it, nothing happened to her. >> he's being indicted for spreading lies, that's what the indictment says over and over again, and they insist that he knew they were lies. >> well, that's not at all what the indictment says. the prosecution in the indictment itself fully acknowledges trump had the right to say whatever he wanted, he had a right like every american, it says, to speak publicly, to speak falsely, he had that right, that there had been fraud during the election, that he had won the election. the indictment also acknowledges trump had every right to take the election results to court, audit the results, all free speech. but not, laura, to take fraudulent action. >> so interesting to follow all of this history as its unfolding. 6:46 right now. new at 6:00, hollywood writers are scheduled to return to the negotiation table today.

based on statements from yesterday, it doesn't sound that promising. the writers guild of america sent a letter to members challenging studios to abandon an anti-union playbook and come prepared to offer a fair deal. the studios fired back saying the wga bargaining rhetoric is unfortunate, our only playbook is getting people back to work. workers have been on strike for more than two months. august is childrens' cancer awareness month and we're focusing on now nuclear medicine diagnostic scans are helping to treat children. a small amount of radioactive drug allows doctors to see inside the child's body. the scans can diagnose things like lymphoma, thyroid and bone cancers and can help doctors plan treatments, along with evaluating how the cancer is responding to those treatments. dr. nadal is a pediatric physician at stanford and tells us this method is safe and can also improve the quality of life for patients.

>> referring physicians that use these are very happy with the results that are occurring in these new techniques and the parents of these children and the children themselves are noticing these different effects and the improvement that we can see. >> dr. nadel adds the scans can help manage ongoing care by early detection of that cancer coming back. trending this morning, vanessa bryant honored her late husband and her daughter, gianna at the taylor swift concert. >> on her instagram page she posted pictures of her jean jacket bedazzled. the back has a photo of swift and kobe bryant on stage during the 1989 world tour back in 2015. she also joined the trend of

making friendship bracelets. kobe bryant had praised taylor swift's career and his daughters have been long-time swifties. >> there's a patch on the front, too, with one of taylor swift's lyrics, "say you'll remember me" on the front, too. >> very meaningful. there's been so many celebrities going to her concerts. >> they're the ones who can afford it. we know it's expensive, but everybody who spent the money said it was totally worth it. >> i felt like i went. >> we made it through. maybe next time. it's going to be hot in the valleys. the good thing is that not everyone is going to have to deal with high heat this weekend. we're keeping it mild for the coast and parts of the inner bay. we start out with low clouds over san rafael as we take a look at our live camera. it looks like a great start to our day. as we're making plans based on the weather, you want to get out there early and get in those

outdoor activities. in morgan hill we can see the outdoor forecast going from upper 60s at 11:00, it's still comfortable. it's 75 at lunchtime. then we head straight for the upper 80s for the middle of the afternoon. so we do have a few hours where some of our inland valleys are going to start to feel a little warm, but it's not yet the peak of the heat. we are going to see temperatures going up several degrees today, cupertino reaching 81 degrees. we do still have that breezy wind that will be kicking up today. in danville, expect a high of 86 degrees and low 70s for oakland, and about the same in hayward. along the coast we're in the mid-60s today, san mateo reaching 71, and in palo alto expect it to reach 78 degrees, 68 in the mission district in san francisco and 58 in the marina district. we will have, once again, a wide range in temperatures, so it really just depends on where you are. we're going to be talking a lot about heat, but once again, not everyone is going to have to deal with it with sonoma reaching 87 degrees.

here is where you'll find much cooler temperatures, along the coastline you may be looking for something to check out. the dog surfing competition will be happening in pacifica, in the upper 50s to start. only peeks of sunshine as the fog lingers and highs in the low 60s. compare that to fairfield, hitting 100 degrees on sunday. that will be the peak of the heat and then we do see temperatures dipping again for early next week. the good thing is that the heat doesn't stick around long. we see it for a couple of days. it does continue into monday with mid-90s in the valleys, then we're back in the mid-80s, which is about normal for early august. we'll see san francisco's temperatures in the low to mid-70s for the weekend and you may enjoy a little more sunshine for the next couple of days. cinthia, you're looking at the bay bridge. >> yeah, we're going to start from above and i'll show you why looks can be a little deceiving as people make their way around the berkeley curve. we have two issues going on, over the bay bridge and then as

people try to make their way through oakland. we've talked about the crashes on southbound 880. let's go into san francisco and what's backing up the traffic there as people make their way off of the bridge. we have a new crash that came up, westbound 80 at the 8th street off-ramp, blocking the left lane. they're trying to move everything to the right-hand shoulder so that traffic can keep moving. the issue on 880 is on the clearing stages after some of the liquid had dripped on the road, but otherwise looking like a bay area friday light through most of the roadways. we just have our typical build over the altamont pass. back to you. >> thank you very much. it is 6:51 right now. happening now, bad blood in the bay area, after taylor swift went over curfew. but it's not against the pop star. mercury news reports santa clara is issuing a $2,000 fine against the company that set off fireworks at the end of her shows last week. the fireworks went off past the 11:00 p.m. curfew. no fines have been issued

against taylor swift, but if santa clara does choose to fine her for going over, the san francisco 49ers would have to foot the bill because they actually manage the stadium. next, a quick look at our top stories that include firefighters working overnight to stop that brush fire in the south bay from spreading. the latest on containment as homes remain under threat. first, here is hoda kotb. >> coming up on "today," an inside look at simone biles' highly anticipated return to competitive gymnastics this weekend. we'll be there live and talk about what it could mean for about what it could mean for next introducucing togo's's new frech dip p sandwicheses.

welcome back. we're moving you forward with a look at our top stories on "today in the bay." >> we're watching this wildfire

that continues to burn off clayton in the east foothills over san jose. they're calling it the clayton fire. it started yesterday afternoon, and by evening crews were able to stop it from spreading. as of 5:00 last night, the fire was only 20% contained, but we believe firefighters have made some progress since then. at the time, cal fire says around 30 homes were threatened. evacuation warnings, not orders, are in place for people living near three springs road. we now know an 8-year-old little boy shot on a freeway in oakland last month is paralyzed. asa lowe was struck by a stray bullet on 580 on july 14th. the family's gofundme page says the bullet and bone fragments were lodged in his neck and spinal cord, paralyzing him from the neck down. the family says it will cost a quarter million dollars to get him home and ensure a smooth transition. they have to modify their home, their car, they have to pay for rehab, education, and 24-hour

care. police have not said whether they have made any arrests in that shooting. a big statement from the san francisco d.a., brooke jenkins says the biggest roadblock to cleaning up the fentanyl and crime crisis in the city are the courts letting the dealers off the hook. at a town hall in the tenderloin last night, jenkins said dealers who go to trial are in and out in sometimes just hours. jenkins also went on to tell the crowd that her office wants to detain repeat offenders while they await their trial, but only 16 out of 100 requests to do so have been granted. san francisco police are scheduled to have another town hall this afternoon, this time in response to an officer-involved shooting that happened in the bay view on july 26th. this weekend the bay bridge series picks up again and it could be the last one ever. this is a live look at the oakland coliseum ahead of tomorrow's game, being dubbed sell the team saturday. instead of the rivalry, a's fans hope that giants fans will join

them once again to fill up the seats and protest the team's move to las vegas. fans want the a's owner, john fisher, to sell the team instead of moving them out of oakland. groups will be giving out free rally towels to fans outside the park and it looks like there might be a pretty big turnout because about 30,000 tickets have already been sold ahead of saturday's game, 16,000 sold so far for sunday. don't forget to buy tickets of another kind, because you have a chance to become a billionaire. no one had the winning numbers for tuesday's mega millions drawing, so the jackpot is up to $1.25 billion, with a cash option of over $625 million. the drawing happens tonight at 8:00. you've got to buy your tickets by 7:00. >> that's true. i did find out the hard way. well, i'm a winner, i have $8 in my pocket now. >> it keeps rolling over. kari hall, it is going to be warm this weekend, but today it's getting there. >> it's starting to warm up just

a little for the inland areas. the peak of the heat will be sunday reaching 101. there is backup at the bay bridge toll plaza. it's going to take you about 30 minutes to get through the bay bridge this morning. >> that is rough. >> "today" show starts now and "today in the bay" continues now, live on roku, samsung tv or wherever you stream. join us or whenever it fits into your schedule. i'll send out a link on 'x'. >> that's what's happening "today in the bay." the "today" show starts now. we'll see you back here for midday news at 11:00. >> have a great good friday morning. a a pivotal moment in the nation's capitol. donald trump arraigned in federal court. the case full speed ahead now. it's august 4th.
