breed says she's putting together a team of city leaders and education experts to do just that. they walked off the job hundreds of hilton, hyatt and marriott hotel workers in san francisco went on strike today over concerns they say include wages that don't keep up with the high cost of living in the bay area and also increasing workloads. today's picket follows months of contract negotiations and a three day strike over labor day weekend. nbc bay area's christie smith explains what workers want and how the hotels are responding. around union square, some 1500 hotel workers were on strike today. it came down to this for nicholas javier, a restaurant server. all this extra workload with less people and less hours to do it means that i have to. i have to sacrifice what is my profession, which is hospitality. and the thing that welcomes people to san francisco is our hospitality. it's us. he was outside the westin saint francis hotel. organizers say the strike here and at the grand

hyatt san francisco union square and hilton san francisco union square, follows months of negotiations between the hospitality workers union, unite here, local two and the hotels. we have, you know, our our wages is one of our key issues. many of our members commute from far away. the cost of living has gone up exponentially in the past couple of years. and so big wage increases are really important for us maintaining our medical benefits and having a decent retirement. we're looking for a fair contract that that reflects a the, the, the difficult situation that we've been in for the last, especially since the pandemic. they believe the industry is recovering and want a rollback of pandemic era cuts. the union said workers decided not to strike during dreamforce last week, saying san francisco can't recover without a strong hotel industry and hotels can't operate without the workers. these tourists from germany saw the strike. it's great. i mean, people shall

strike for their right and same in germany. germany is not unusual to see such strikes. we reached out to all the hotels and in a statement, the marriott said the westin saint francis remains open and we have well-established protocols in place to operate our properties, adding we remain available to meet with the local union negotiating committee to reach an agreement that is fair to all parties. the hyatt said in part, we have a history of offering competitive wages and benefits in the market, adding we have offered competitive wages, health care and retirement benefits at the hotel that's on strike and colleague benefits and wages remain unchanged as we negotiate a new agreement. hyatt says it has contingency plans in place to minimize impacts on hotel operations related to strike activity. christie smith, nbc, bay area news. paper or plastic will no longer be a

choice at grocery stores in california. governor newsom signed a new law today, and it bans all plastic shopping bags. all of them. california already banned thin plastic bags. shoppers could still buy bags made of thicker plastic that could be reused or recycled. but in reality, consumers were just throwing a vast majority of those bags away. the new law bans all plastic bags starting next year. supporters say the ban will help reduce plastic waste. well, a first for el sobrante. the city held its first pride celebration today. hundreds of people showed up at lemoine park, also known as cheese park, to locals. there were booths, as you can see, performances, music, food and a much more. all ages welcome. and there were some activities for young children, including a petting zoo. the community came together to put this on and the organizers say they could not be more thrilled by the response. and we're so excited to have everyone here. it's amazing. it's really unbelievable that our small community of 18,000 could have 500 people show up to

look around now and i go, wow, big tribe. the band was given the key to the city. today's special dedication also included a shout out get this to the band's coffee company. it's called punk bunny coffee. in fact, 7-eleven teamed up with green day to create a limited edition anniversary blend. that's cool. this year marks the 30th anniversary of green day's breakout album, dookie, and they just came out with a new album, too, and they were just at oracle on friday, and they're still doing it. well, hey, happening tomorrow, the city of oakland is set to rename a street in honor of martial arts. great bruce lee. the ceremonial sign for bruce lee way is set to be unveiled at 10 a.m. on broadway. and garnet, that's the area. lee had a studio where he developed an expression of martial arts called jeet kune do, or jkd. today, there is an original oakland, jkd school led by sifu felix macias. the school is dedicated to the teachings of lee and his mentor, james jim lee. macias dad right here was a student of both, macias says. it's about time. bruce lee is

where everything begins. surrounded by a fleet of armored suvs inside a massive warehouse in a secretive location, pat freeney, the head of the secret service in new york, is preparing for the agency's biggest challenge. listen, the pressure is real. in the fallout after the assassination attempt against former president trump in butler, pennsylvania, and another apparent attempt against him in florida just one week ago. they must now secure the annual meeting of world leaders at the united nations. nbc news getting an exclusive look at how they're preparing. we're tracking 146 heads of state, head of government, and then 70 spouses. with new challenges to protect them all. we've all witnessed the uptick in political violence worldwide. and unfortunately, domestically. part of the protection means reacting real time from this command post. it puts everyone in the same room. agents shoulder to shoulder with local

partners. the secret service has admitted the use of multiple command posts cost them critical seconds at the butler rally. that won't be the case here. they're able to digest and receive real time information, break it down and push it out to all the operational units in the field of what's going on. like the nypd. there's going to be cops that you will see, and there'll be cops that you will not see. deputy commissioner for operations kaz daughtry oversees the drone program. anytime there's a drone up in the city, we can. we can locate it. their eyes in the sky launched from the top of an suv and can send a video livestream anywhere. of course, it's live streaming right into the truck. yes. correct. and live streaming on your phone if you want. if i wanted to go on my smartphone and take it out and show you it would be live streaming on there as well. they can also call in the choppers flying above the u.n. they're on the lookout for threats, including those they can't see. you're trying to detect chemicals in the air,

radiation in the air. these instruments that we have are so succinct and detect any type of radiological shackell airwaves. back at the warehouse, freeney says he knows the stakes are high. can people feel confident that the u.s. secret service is going to keep unga week in the people you're protecting safe? yeah, they should have the utmost confidence. and tom, the planning never stops. tom winter, nbc news new york. a milestone for two young open water swimmers. yesterday we told you how 19 year old nyjah concord and her 22 year old sister, natalie, were planning to make their 100th swim from alcatraz to san francisco. and there's proof positive right there. they did it. emerging from the chilly bay to cheers and balloons and flowers. these two again. 119, 122. they've been open water swimmers for many years. in fact, aniya was the youngest person to ever make the alcatraz crossing when she

was eight years old. eight. natalie was the youngest person to swim the strait of medina in italy when she was 15, and today they said they never expected to make this particular swim 100 times. no, not really. yeah, we just fell in love with it. and then as we started racking them up, 100 kind of became a milestone to get to thinking about coach pedro today in the water. yeah, i really felt his push at the end there. yeah, i was thinking about it every step of the way. and now what are they going to do? what do you do for an encore when you've done that? well, they have their sights set on some other local open water swims. one local thinking about swimming 30 miles from the farallon islands to the golden gate bridge. that is something. and if they do that, we will keep you posted because those sisters are completely out of control. absolutely. all right, rob, when you look at that video, i mean, it was early in the morning in san francisco and there was clouds everywhere. yeah not too much wind, which was nice. and the currents are behaving for them out there.

but, you know, they're pros. they've been 100 times now. yeah. it's amazing. they like to look at the skyline. yeah. is that crazy? that's something. well you know they had fog this morning, san francisco. we'll see more of that fog in the forecast. but really it's the inland areas that will miss out on some of that ocean air conditioning. it's going to make you question the calendar next couple of days when you see where these temperatures are headed. the heat advisory is back for the south bay and the inland east bay tomorrow. look at those valley temperatures 90 to 100 degrees. even bayside temperatures for two days. we'll see mostly 80s and 90s. we'll have to watch the inland hills as the daytime breezes pick up. things will be turning drier inland approaching midweek. right now, 66 degrees in san jose. upper 60s out near walnut creek. this time tomorrow, probably looking at some mid 70s through about 11:00 at night. tomorrow night. san rafael 62 degrees and right on schedule. the fog in san francisco at 55 degrees. one thing to watch is high pressure builds in patchy, dense fog for the morning commute. also, potentially some issues for air quality. if you

look at these numbers here, east bay and santa clara valley at 90 on the aqi index. if it gets over 100, then we're in spare the air territory. so stay tuned on that. air quality forecast. there's a chance tomorrow or maybe tuesday. the inland, east bay and santa clara valley could get to those levels. so you may want to reduce some of those outdoor activities over the next couple of afternoons. there's a look at the patchy fog for the morning. and then not much areas inland in terms of those low clouds over the next couple of days. so even though the fact the morning starts off pretty good. 50s and low 60s. check out where these afternoon highs are headed tomorrow. low 90s. this zone. everything you see here under that heat advisory tomorrow. san jose 93. upper 90s down towards morgan hill. chance of triple digits increases out towards livermore, antioch and concord tomorrow and look at oakland, bayside, upper 80s tomorrow 92, in fremont peninsula. temperatures in the low 90s around redwood city and 80s in reach around downtown san francisco. on the coast side, numbers in the low 70s and the

north bay, even though right now it's not in the heat advisory that's still hot. mid to upper 90s inland towards santa rosa. even hotter. up towards clear lake in ukiah. so this really is a two day heat event tuesday. similar temperatures. but then things change as we move forward into that wednesday and thursday forecast back into the 70s and 80s inland. but if you look closely. slightly warmer thursday because we're going to see a second warm up as we approach the weekend. so what's driving the wednesday cooling is a weather system that's going to bring some rain to the north, picks up the sea breeze, then watch the trend here as high pressure builds back heading towards next weekend. so we've got kind of this hot start to the week, especially for inland areas and a second warm up now taking shape as we head towards next weekend. so watch the wind and the cooling there for wednesday. and it looks like the 90s come back for next weekend and why that sunday temperature is important. well, the 49ers are going to be back in town with a game time start at 105,

and if you have tickets to this game, keep an eye on that forecast as you know, it does get pretty warm out at levi's stadium and they could be looking at upper 80s next weekend. so keep that in mind as those temperatures rebound again for the second half of the week. i've been out there on a sunny day and it does. it can bake you on the east side of the stadium. exactly, exactly. that's where i was. yeah. rob. thanks. okay. helping hand for mothers in need. how a group of bay area high schoolers made it happen. insurance companies are dropping thousands of california homeowners. you have to take action to protect yourself and action to protect yourself and your home. i'm consume starrting a business is never easy, but starting it eight months pregnant, that's a different story. with the chase ink card, we got up and running in no time. earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase with the chase ink business unlimited card from chase for business. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪

away in pieces. not yet clear if the person killed was a pilot or passenger, or if there were other serious injuries. a jetblue flight from new york to san diego was forced to land in kansas yesterday because pilots noticed warning lights indicating smoke in the cargo hold. fire crews in kansas were dispatched to the airfield were in place when that airbus landed 130 passengers, some of them very shaken up, and the crew on that flight were able to deplane safely. turns out the whole thing was a false alarm. no smoke in the cargo hold. looks like an electrical problem with those warning lights. well, a group of high school students spent their sunday in daly city helping families in need. students from westmoor high school teamed up with the jackie speer foundation to hold a diaper drive. community was asked to drop off diapers of all sizes to be handed out to families in the community. and organizers say the diapers can cost between 70 and $80 a month, and many families in the bay area struggle to pay for them. toiletries, diapers, paper

towels. you are not eligible to use your food stamps for those products. so when you have an infant and they're using 8 or 9 diapers a day, you can imagine what the cost runs in a month. jackie speer there as well. all right. several city leaders also attended today's event, including daly city mayor jocelyn moran manalo. tens of thousands of california homeowners have been dropped by their insurance companies. if you get a non-renewal letter, you have to take action. consumer investigator chris chmura shows us how. when your home insurance company drops you, the state requires them to give you 75 days notice. that sounds like a lot of time, but in insurance, 75 days isn't a lot of time. so step one start shopping for new insurance immediately. don't delay shopping. get shopping right away. get in touch with an independent agent. amy bock heads the nonprofit united policyholders, which helps

homeowners. she says independent agents might work with lesser known companies that might take you on as a new customer. amy's not the only one who recommends shopping around quickly. so does the insurance industry. side note if you find a new policy quickly, you don't have to wait for the old one to expire. you can start your new one immediately, then cancel your old one and tell your old insurance company to give you a prorated refund. say researching for a new policy drags on. well. ask your old company if they'll keep you. computers are making some insurance industry decisions with the data they chu on might change. so as those 75 days tick away, call your old insurance company and ask them, will you keep me? as a last resort? you might have to go to what's called the california fair plan. it's expensive and it only covers fire. you'll likely need a separate policy for things like break ins and leaks settling that could take days or weeks. so that's why it's so important to get started early. one final note if you have a mortgage, you probably have to have insurance. if you do

nothing, the bank will very likely buy insurance for you. they call it force placing a policy. amy at united policyholders says those rates are astronomical. the bottom line is don't let your lender force place a policy that's that's not going to be financially smart. get shopping right away. up next, a new nbc news poll showing some gains for vice president harris. we'll break down those numbers and hear from former president trump about his plans moving forward, whether he wins or loses the race. and the bay area olympian is in line to win a medal. 12 years after she competed for it. the odd story, filled with a lot of disappointment and now joy

for joining us in this special edition of nbc bay area news. i'm terry mcsweeney and i'm gia

vang. there are just 44 days until election day. today nbc news is out with its latest poll. it's good news for vice president kamala harris. the poll was conducted in mid september. it shows harris has a five point lead over former president donald trump among registered voters, 49% to 44%, within the margin of error. now, on the recent debate, 29% said the debate made them more likely to support harris versus 12% who said it made it more likely to back trump. 57% said it made no difference. feelings toward the candidates show 48% of voters feel positive about harris and her running mate, minnesota governor tim walz. now for trump, it's 40%. and his running mate, ohio senator jd vance, at 32%. now, it is important to note that these polls are just a snapshot and do have a margin of error. but overall, the 2024 presidential race looks similar to four years ago. the democratic nominee is more popular than the republican candidate, yet the electorate is still deeply polarized, and the

final result will likely be a tight race. former president trump says if he loses this election, he will not run for president again. he appeared on full measure. it's a morning show hosted by our affiliate in rhode island. if you're not successful this time, do you see yourself running again in four years? no i don't. no i don't. i think that that will be that will be it. i don't see that at all. i think that hopefully we're going to be successful. the former president also shed some light on how his team might transition to a second administration if he does win in november, he said he hasn't promised any prominent cabinet positions for some of his more high profile endorsers because it's too early and a major shakeup in a key battleground state today, as we're just learning for top staffers, for the republican candidate for governor, are resigning. that's as mark robinson battles scandalous allegations against him. now, some republicans worry the controversy could cost former president trump votes in this critical swing state. nbc's

dasha burns reports from charlotte and hello to north carolina. battleground north carolina taking center stage as a scandal in the race for governor is shaking up an already competitive presidential contest in the critical state. it's very hard for us to win unless we're able to get north carolina. former president trump won the tar heel state in 2016 and again in 2020 by a narrower margin. and now the latest morning consult poll shows a neck and neck race. the survey, taken before the bombshell cnn report alleging republican gubernatorial candidate mark robinson, made lewd and racist comments on a website ten years ago, which robinson denies. but democrats like robinson's opponent north carolina attorney general josh stein, have tried to tie him to trump. look, robinson exists because donald trump has lifted him up throughout. trump has not rescinded his endorsement of the candidate, despite allies urging him to. his supporters are split on robinson. do you think that

could have an impact? if it comes down to one person, that would be very disappointing. he's a bad image. he's trying to. i think he's bad for the election. other north carolinians say they have bigger concerns. for me, it's the economy. i mean, we're retired and we feel it. i think we need a change. i think money is going out too fast and not enough. i just think we need a big change. political science professor eric heberlig from the university of north carolina, says a harris win here would give her another path to the white house. democrats have really relied on those upper midwestern states wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania to pull them over the top. haven't had a whole lot of luck in the south. now with north carolina and georgia and arizona potentially in play, that gives harris options. that was dasha burns reporting. meantime vice president harris is set to make another fundraising stop here in the bay area. she'll be in san francisco on saturday. it is the second time she'll be fundraising in the city since taking the

democratic nomination. the event is expected to sell out fast. tickets are running from $500 to over $2,800. this is expected to be part of her final fundraising stand before election day, and just six weeks left until election day. get the latest on the presidential race and all of our local bay area races. visit our website nbcbayarea.com. slash decision 2024. let's take a look at capitol hill tonight, where lawmakers are confident they will avert a looming government shutdown. speaker mike johnson said today. the house will vote this week on a three month stopgap funding bill that would keep the federal government open through december 20th. if that measure goes into effect, the government would avert a shutdown that is set to begin at the start of next month. without congressional action, senate majority leader chuck schumer said today. there's a good chance they're going to reach a deal, and i have been sitting down for the last four days with speaker johnson, his staff and my staff, and we're coming closer to an agreement. we can get this done, but we can't have any delays. we

can't have any people on either side of the aisle, democrats or republicans, standing up and saying, unless i get my way, i'm going to shut down the government. we can't have that. if both sides can't reach a compromise, funding deal, the government will run out of money next friday night at midnight. the bill includes an additional $231 million for the secret service for operations related to the 2024 presidential campaign and national special security events validation and justice an olympic dream comes true for a san francisco athlete 12 years later. three time olympian shannon rowbury is now in line for a bronze medal in the 1500 meter race, but this is from the 2012 london olympics. a lot of changes over the years. rowbury now third after a total of eight runners, have been disqualified. in 2012, shannon finished sixth. she sat down with our raj mathai for her first tv interview since the news broke and shares her emotional journey of heartache, disappointment and now joy.

shannon rowbury, the second of the americans here. 12 years later dq doping ban dq, dq shannon rowbury and her husband pablo solares are watching that 2012 race in full for the first time. oh it is. it's going to be turkey one and two. what about that? and now as i watch it all these years later, it's like, what's even the point of watching the race? because half the field was cheating in 2012. solaris, her boyfriend at the time, was the first person she saw after the finish, and i just hugged him and sobbed. we all knew what was happening and i could only be there to support her, right? so rowbury, who will turn 40 this month, was on a bucket list family vacation in ecuador when she got a text from her agent. again, solaris was the first person there, and i handed my husband the screen, had the phone, had him read it,

and he looks up to me and he's like, jenny, oh my god, shani, you're going to get bronze. and i just started sobbing. she is an olympic medalist and no one can take that away from her. now that suspicion was valid that that was the one aspect of my running career i couldn't create closure on. it's a very, very strong field indeed, as one would expect, that 2012 olympics race has been called one of the dirtiest races in track history. out of the top seven runners, four have been disqualified, including the first and second place finishers before the race, there were a lot of red flags. rowbury is now third after the court of arbitration for sport suspended the current silver medalist, a russian athlete. there's a ten year window where they can retest athletes samples like urine and blood samples. the court retested the russian in 2021, something rowbury

didn't know until a couple of weeks ago. i don't know what comes next. i don't know if i'll get that medal and if i do, when it will come. medal or not. nothing can give shannon rowbury back what she didn't get in 2012. the victory lap, the holding of a flag, the hugs and the tears that that i deserved to share. that my family and friends deserve to share with me. she is a world champion, world record holder and american record holder. she's also a mother of two young children. let me take you on a little tour of where we'll be broadcasting from. she was a track analyst for us at nbc sports during the paris olympics, and now rowbury can add a few more titles. shannon rowbury is an olympic bronze medalist and the first woman in u.s. history to win a medal in the women's 1500. it's a dream come true. i literally thought i would never get to get

to say those words. an incredible story. that was our raj mathai reporting. still no official word on when or if rowbury will get an actual bronze medal. but we do know this. she finished third. shannon hopes to use her platform now to help younger athletes navigate doping in sports and see stricter policie. up next. beetlejuice. beetlejuice scares off transformers. yeah, we have the weekend box office numbers, plus a look ahead. the highly anticipated film directed by francis ford coppola. also, law and music beat a san francisco man. well versed in both his story. still ahead deep breath. cancer is a journey you don't take alone. you did it! our cancer care team works together to care for all that is you.

in massachusetts. eight bulls escaped their enclosure, plowed

through fences in the parking lot. you see right there. and then they ran away together. yeah wow. luckily, no one was hurt. authorities spent three hours tracking them down, and at last check one still on the loose. beetlejuice. beetlejuice is celebrating another win at the box office. the tim burton sequel took the top spot for the third week in a row. it made $26 million. this weekend brings its total to $226 million. transformers one came in second place, making $25 million. the animated movie stars chris hemsworth and scarlett johansson. third place went to speak no evil, which made just under $6 million. and in the week ahead, don't let the now destroy the first. lionsgate will release megalopolis. legendary director francis ford coppola self-financed the film for a reported cost of $120 million. he believes in this one. it hits theaters on friday. well, a nasa astronaut and a russian cosmonaut arrived at

kennedy space center this weekend. they're headed for the international space station, where two starliner crew members are stranded. the pair will take off this week for the iss aboard a dragon capsule with two empty seats. those seats are for those two boeing starliner astronauts who hope to hitch a ride home in february, when crew nine's mission is finished. the starliner launched to the es on a historic mission back in june. its first time carrying people with the craft then encountered problems, so their intended eight day mission will now last more than eight months. this mission is bigger than any one crew. it's bigger than any one person, and so we've got a dynamic challenge ahead of us. and it in the response to how do we adjust and how do we adapt to do the mission that we've got to do? i've never felt closer to my crewmates. crew nine's mission was initially scheduled for four

members, but two nasa astronauts will stay on earth to make room for that stranded duo. all right. back here on mother earth. we got some fog right behind you, rob. we got some summer on the way, though. yeah, we got patchy, dense fog. we may have a few of those advisories for your morning commute. you're seeing that right now across the golden gate bridge, but also at the same time, heat advisories going into effect during the day tomorrow. ho the city hall insiders have a formula: grow the system, exploit the system. take mark farrell's record.

after receiving the largest ethics fine in city history for breaking campaign laws. mark authorized a commission almost every year he was in office. he was even caught taking donations from people he would then appoint to commissions, including a felon convicted of bribery. san francisco's challenges demand urgency, not more of the same failed insiders. alright. what's the definition of character to you? umm... would you be a superhero or a supervillain?

if you could say one thing to big tobacco, what would it be? it's so important in this time of change that we reclaim our sacred ways. i had to open my eyes. you can't continue to do this. deep breath. i'd want to ask them “why?” (♪♪) light on some of the people who make our area unique. nbc bay area's joe rosato jr. introduces us to a san francisco man where music and the law go hand in hand. there's something magical about music. and i think it defines that element in us that is still undescribable. it could be just as difficult to describe

the path of enrique ramirez. so that's where i grew up in torreon. that's about eight hours south of el paso. my dad worked in the fields picking cotton, and my mom worked in tending the agricultural workers who were there. ramirez was a kid when his family traded life in mexico for life in east los angeles. recent arrivals from mexico were attacked. we were ridiculed. we were humiliated. we were yelled at. so he and other young mexican immigrants tried to fit in by hiding their culture, culture, culture are mexican american kids who think they're white. so they would change their name like enrique to henry or pedro to pete. but when ramirez was swept up in protests against the vietnam war, he found a new voice in the growing chicano movement. in august 29th, 1970, we had the largest march in east los angeles against the vietnam war

and this new chicanos were no longer mexican-americans. they were proud of their heritage. they wanted to be mexican. they wanted to speak spanish. i became a very active student in walkouts, in marches. his weapon in the fight became a guitar in the process. in this recapturing of our culture, i'd always play guitar. i knew a lot of mexican ballads or corridos. the songs ramirez wrote were imbued with his politics. stop the bombing, stop the bombing music became a big part of my life, but also politics. so that led me to think about becoming a lawyer. so ramirez came to san francisco to attend what was then hastings school of law, finding inspiration in his fellow immigrants in san francisco's mission district. so i've been practicing now in the area of immigration and personal injury

and discrimination for the last 40 years gave me such a sense of pride and satisfaction to be able to help and keep a family together, you know, family united, or avoid the deportation of a dad or a brother. love the land, the land. throughout his life, the themes of justice and equality have coursed through ramirez's music and his career. he traces their roots to a key figure from his childhood in mexico. that's my mother, olga rios. she's. she's the. she's the one that pulled us through seven kids on her own. it's in my heart at my age, i'm still in awe and wondering what the magic of music is. this child's play. at 73, ramirez is at retirement age, yet he can't seem to quit working because there are people to help. when i hear and of

course, always a song in need of singing joe rosato jr waking by nbc bay area news deeply ian cull my very nice. all right, for more stories celebrating hispanic heritage, please scan that qr code right there on your screen. it will take you to our nbc bay area app, which is free to download and available for all smartphone devices. let's step outside right now. live. look at the bay bridge and you know when it's free flowing like that. it's a beautiful sight and it's kind of a rare sight. but let's talk about weather. yeah, you could see a little bit of the line of fog over there. yeah. does it feel fall like to you so far today? it did. a few hours into fall today. it felt kind of warm today in the east bay. i had a jacket on, and as i was walking, teddy and i had to take it off because it was too hot. teddy is your dog. yeah, it was warm enough if you're going to walk the dog out there. but

you know, you're going to question, i think if it's fall tomorrow, if you're in some of the inland valleys of the east bay and san jose, we have a heat advisory showing up on the first full day of fall for the south bay and the east bay, right now, 66 degrees in san jose. not too bad. we are eventually going to see a few patches of low clouds around the santa clara valley, but we're not likely to see much of that in walnut creek. as high pressure builds in the ocean, influence stays mainly bay side and along the coast. as we head over to san rafael, 60 degrees and a sign of the morning commute could be this patchy, dense fog. you're looking at it live there on the golden gate bridge, and notice where the low clouds are tomorrow morning. not as much inland out towards the tri valley or the carquinez strait. still locally up here around the north bay and down into san jose. and during the day, less of that marine influence to watch the temperatures here from morning, mainly in the 50s and low 60s, as early as lunchtime, closing in on 90 degrees out by livermore and morgan hill and san francisco and oakland. upper 70s to upper 80s, bayside and could get close to 90 around

fremont and mountain view. low 90s san jose, upper seconds south of downtown and out towards the tri valley. these areas inland east bay, south bay, santa cruz mountains under the heat advisory not just for monday, but check out these temperatures tuesday. day two of the heat advisory tuesday, with similar temperatures in the mid to upper 90s inland through the east bay 98 san jose southward, 70s and 80s around san francisco and oakland. but by wednesday, big cooling and we may actually have some drizzle on the coast as the wind picks up the clouds come back for a day, and then the temperatures try to rebound a little bit by thursday. still, mainly thosenland approaching thursday. so it will finally drive the wednesday cooling as the weather system here again wednesday morning. maybe a little bit of drizzle on the coast, but watch the orange here. this is high pressure building in as we head towards next weekend. so two warm ups for tracking the bigger one coming in for tomorrow and tuesday. that will put places like san francisco even downtown, closing in on some low 80s and then jumping back to the mid 70s second half of the week.

inland valleys tomorrow hottest days monday and tuesday. then by friday and next weekend we're into the 90s. and why that weekend forecast is important. if you have tickets out to levi's. early afternoon starts sunday. anthony is looking at that as well because it impacts you too. it could be quite hot, as you know. levi's stadium early afternoon upper seconds. that's the trend right now as we move forward through next weekend. so first weekend of fall right now could be hanging on to those summerlike temps. all right okay. the results of this 49ers game each and every one of you. i feel like you watch until the bitter, bitter, bitter end. well, you kept thinking maybe there'd be. it wouldn't be so bitter. but it turned out to be very bitter. shanna he said it. chance's chance after chance after chance. and they couldn't do it. the 49ers lose back to back games after falling on the road to the rams, while head coach kyle shanahan calls this loss very frustrating. i just told you why stick around. sports is next

"the doctor will see you now." but do they really? do they see that crick in your neck? that ache in your heart? will they see that funny little thing that wasn't there last year? a new bounce in your step? the way your retinal scan connects to your blood sugar? at kaiser permanente all of us work together to care for all that is you.

of injuries. there was no cmc or george kittle, but that doesn't make this loss any less disappointing. after the 49ers blow, a double digit lead in socal, the faithful taking over sofi stadium. look at all that red. that's why they call it levi south. breakout day for jauan jennings first drive. he hauls in a 13 yard touchdown, and he was just getting started. still in the first quarter, brock purdy dodges the rush then hits jennings for his second score of the game. jennings gets the hat trick in the third quarter, a 31 yard touchdown catch. he had a career high 11 receptions for 175 yards and three touchdowns. the 49ers had a ten point lead with under seven minutes to go. then the rams come storming back after a missed field goal by the niners.

kyren williams scores on the short run game, tied at 24. plenty of time for the niners to march down the field and kick a field goal. but on second and long, ronnie bell's got to make that grab. the rams get the ball back with time winding down. joshua karty drills a 37 yard field goal and the rams rally to beat the 49ers 27 to 24. you know, it was a frustrating game throughout it. you know i thought we had every chance to win that game. i thought also we had a number of times in the game we had we had opportunities to run away with it. i knew everyone was without them having to tell me, and we should be. and when you have a game like that where you feel you have every chance to win and you don't get it done, those are the ones. those are usually the more disappointing ones. you know, you miss out on an opportunity and give the other team life. it's the nfl, man. the other guys on the other side are really good. and they'll make you pay for it. so we had to learn the hard way today. tough day for the raiders against the panthers. andy dalton replaces bryce young at quarterback and looks all world. he tosses for

more than 300 yards and three touchdowns. carolina wins for the first time this season, while the raiders dropped to one and two. panthers win it 36 to 22. to baseball. the giants sweeping up in kc. the orange and black doing their damage in the second. brett wisely comes through with a two out rbi single. the giants score a pair in the inning. that was more than enough for blake snell. he was dealing, striking out 9 in 6 scoreless innings. the bullpen closes the door. the giants sweep the royals two nothing. san francisco only allowed one run during this three game series. it's just nice to get a sweep against a good team playing pretty good right now. you know, it's on a day where we're just not going to kill the ball because lugo's been pitching so well. two huge hits out of two youngsters. you know, driving a couple of runs and then let blake do his thing. and the bullpen take over. so kind of doing a little bit differently. this series has been a lot about the pitching. all right. last sunday for the

a's in oakland, the series finale against the yankees tied at two in the third. linden native aaron judge hammers it to center. it's his league leading 55th home run. then in the sixth, the a's down three. ryan noda doubles to right. that'll score a pair of runs to make it a one run ball game. but the yankees pull away. new york sweeps oakland 7 to 4. all right, the a's are off tomorrow. then their final three game series against the rangers. that ends on thursday. but let's end on a happy note. the sharks preseason against vegas. they lost 4 to 2, but macklin celebrini, the number one overall pick, scored a goal in this game, so there's a lot of excitement. yes, they lost to vegas four two. but again, only preseason. macklin, you watch him on the ice and he is special. all right. i do want to talk about one thing about the 49ers. yes. that woman who we saw earlier in the show who said she's never been to a 49ers game, but she's been a fan since. i don't have any juice, though. asking the wrong person by the ticket. okay. the old fashioned way. all right. all right. we got to do something.

canett. okay. hey, before we go, a big night tomorrow here on nbc. the voice is returning for a new season with new head coaches. reba mcentire, gwen stefani will return, and michael buble and snoop dogg. it's a family thing. first and foremost. it feels like a family reunion every time we get together. you got superheroes. gwen was just saying it felt like we were in a movie when we were together. everybody's a character. we all bring something unique to the table, and we all have fun and we care. they're not superheroes. they're superheroes. i know he came. snoop came back from the olympics, and now he's on the voice. all right. the voice premieres tomorrow night at eight, right here on nbc. bay area followed by the premiere of the medical drama brilliant minds at ten. then nbc bay area at 11, of course. all right. thanks very much for joining us. we'll be back tonight at 11. been an hour. see you then. bye.
