7:05 am
inside, but we were able to talk to two local women who were in the event and who say they were very inspired by what they heard from the vice president. it was fabulous. yeah, it was great. vice president harris spoke for about 25 minutes about key issues, including abortion access, immigration and the economy. she said her opponent is out of touch with most americans and described how she'd address the everyday economic struggles that they face, along with small businesses. and i thought that was encouraging, and i also appreciated that she actually is really focused on making sure that there's representation for working people and middle class and better, stuff for seniors as well. a better economy. heidi rivera said she's confident the harris-walz campaign is doing what it needs to win, and how a victory in november could inspire young women in the future to seek the highest office in the nation, something they may not be able to envision

without her blazing the trail. yes i think everyone should have that opportunity. i think everyone here in america. i'm excited now. i am, i'm excited. do you think that she's going to win? she's going to win. yeah. and how how does that make you feel? i'm really happy she's going to win. it's time. saturday's event was expected to bring in a good chunk of change for the harris campaign, with tickets ranging from $500 to over $900,000 for a table of four. vice president harris headed to la for more campaign events sunday, while second gentleman doug emhoff will make a stop in the bay area himself. speaking at a menlo park campaign reception sunday evening. thom jensen today in the bay. at the same time, former president donald trump also on the campaign trail this weekend. yesterday, in the swing state of wisconsin. trump, speaking to supporters making negative comments about vice president harris's mental acuity. trump also criticizing
7:07 am
the biden-harris administration's border policies. one day after harris visited the southern border. what kamala harris has done to our border is a betrayal of every citizen. not only must she be defeated, but in light of this news, kamala harris should immediately resign. the vice presidency and go home to california in disgrace. trump ended his night in tuscaloosa, alabama, where he watched the alabama crimson tide play the georgia bulldogs. today, he will be at a rally in the battleground state of pennsylvania. back here in the bay area, a majority of candidates hoping to be san francisco's next mayor went toe to toe yesterday during a forum in the city's mission district. the event was hosted by the san francisco latino parity and equity coalition. nine of the 13 people running for mayor answered questions from the crowd. they're broken up into two groups. the first included several of the top candidates. mayor london breed, daniel

lurie, supervisor asha safai, and board of supervisors president aaron peskin. some of the topics included workforce concerns, affordable housing, and strengthening investments in nonprofit organizations. it's important because we also represent various you know, perspectives. we're not a monolithic community, so it's exciting to have a space where we can have these really rich conversations and build understanding not only with the candidates, but within each other. another high profile candidate, former mayor mark farrell, did not attend. a campaign spokesperson said he was at an event at his daughter's college. farrell, however, did speak to voters earlier in the week at a town hall, moderated by our own gia vang. you can watch what the top five candidates had to say on our website. just go to nbcbayarea.com and click on sf mayoral forum in the trending bar at the top of the page. a reminder this coming wednesday

7:10 am
yoshi yoshida's former students attended their sensei's memorial service saturday afternoon at san jose buddhist church, betsuin. some traveled from as far as barbados. for a man whose coaching led them to greatness. i went to the 1996 olympics and also the 2000in sydney. yoshida helped lead the charge to make judo an olympic sport and led the first u.s. judo to team tokyo in 1964. he got his start coaching judo at san jose state while still a student there, but before achieving success, there was hardship. a man that that came overcame adversity. small in stature but a big man at heart. before serving in world war two, yoshida and his family were sent to japanese internment camps, the processing site they passed through was on san jose state's campus. now, the building where it stood bears his name. he had this sense of,
7:11 am
you know, even no matter how hard things get, you dig deep and you follow through. even through the struggle. up until yoshida died in june, he was still coaching san jose state students. connor oyakawa, now a senior and judo team captain, recalled what coach yoshi told him as he fulfilled his freshman duties cleaning up the dojo. he said to me like, hey, i appreciate you like doing all this. i know that it's a lot for your first year coming into here, but for you, this is what's going to make you successful and this is what's going to build your character going into your next couple of years in school. building character based on mutual respect, humility and human decency lessons his students now apply to their careers. beyond putting san jose state's judo team on the map. yoshida helped transform san jose's japantown, bringing millions of dollars to developing housing and business in the neighborhood. his legacy will stand on the shoulders of giants. emma goss for today in the bay. 11 past the hour. we have much more ahead on today in

7:14 am
president kamala harris visit the southern border in arizona, her first visit since 2021. it appears she's working to address some of her key vulnerabilities, as seen by the republicans. also, her economic message what do you make of her? her moves at this stage of her campaign? well, kira great to be with you. i think that you're absolutely right. she's trying to take on her vulnerabilities head on. and part of the reason is because she is seeing that the gap is narrowing between her and former president trump. trump leads right now on the issue of immigration. he leads on the issue of the economy. she is starting to make inroads, and
7:15 am
the goal is to try to build on that momentum and, frankly, to try to overtake him on those issues. but again, we're less than six weeks out, so it certainly is a high bar. i had the opportunity to talk to senator mark kelly of arizona, who was with her on that border trip. i pressed him on whether he supports the proposals that she rolled out, which would effectively make the asylum restrictions that president biden has put in place. even tougher, as well as make some of the criminal convictions for those who crossed the border illegally even tougher. so some really notable moments in the interview with senator kelly as he responds to this policy by vice president biden. will it be enough, though, to win over those moderate, those independent, those undecided voters? that's, of course, the key goal. we'll have to see how it all plays out. well, we look forward to those interviews and we'll see how it all plays out in the next, what, 36 days? i have a feeling we'll be talking about this next sunday. christian thanks so much. we'll
7:16 am
see you then. and we hope you join christian for this morning's meet the press. she will have two exclusive interviews, one with republican senator marco rubio, whose state was just hit by hurricane helene, and democratic senator mark kelly. if you just stick right here with us for today in the bay, meet the press is on at 8 a.m, right after this newscast back here in the bay area it was a bizarre drive by shooting of sorts at uc berkeley. investigators tell us a student was walking near the corner of bancroft way and bowditch street early yesterday morning when a large black suv drove by and shot them with orbeez type objects. if you're a parent, you likely know what orbeez are. though they're small water beads that are not typically hard, they're squishy. but when fired at a high rate of speed, they can be painful and dangerous. no word on whether the student was badly injured, but cal police tell us they are investigating the incident as an aggravated
7:17 am
assault. well, they just got their keys to the city in pinole. but now green bay's lead singer and his band are in hot water and now have been banned from two radio stations in las vegas. it comes after frontman billie joe armstrong made negative comments about the city, a sin city to a packed crowd at san francisco's oracle park. he told the crowd that he, quote, hated the city, among other negative remarks, though, he was expressing his disapproval of the oakland a's, his beloved team, their anticipated move to las vegas. it appears many took his comments to heart. green day has not yet responded to the band's spacex's crew nine lifted off from cape canaveral with a downsized crew yesterday. two empty seats are being reserved for those boeing starliner astronauts. they got to the international space station back in june, but as you likely know
7:18 am
by now, starliner encountered problems, so their eight day mission is now lasting more than eight months. they will come back home in february when crew nine's mission is over. a milestone celebration for a san francisco nonprofit group, the cameron house, celebrated 150 years of serving the community in chinatown. cameron house was founded in 1874 by the presbyterian church to save young women from sex trafficking. their work has evolved over the years, but still so important to the community. our gia vang hosted the gala yesterday, celebrating one of the honorees are special projects producer christine nee. she's being recognized for the outstanding work she does in the chinatown community. christine and gia matching in yellow there recently highlighted cameron house's history in a two part story. you can watch it on our website, nbc bay area any time
7:19 am
this morning we are waking up to a major change. a second moon is now likely orbiting planet earth. don't get too excited. it's only temporary. nasa researchers say an asteroid will begin orbiting earth as soon as today. scientists have dubbed this a quote, mini moon. the asteroid will eventually pull away from the gravitational pull, but that won't happen until november. we'll know the second moon is up there. it will be too small for our naked eye to see. oh darn. well, it's good to know it's there. time now to check in with cinthia pimentel for a look at our microclimate forecast. we are in for a nice day, and if anybody gets any of those pictures with their telescopes, we'd love to see them. scott budman. yes, he's he's he's awake. yes. that's our call to you. but otherwise, everybody else. my call to you is to go out there and enjoy a sunday fun day with lots of sunshine. we are waking up to some low clouds through san
7:20 am
jose. a few more peeks of sunshine coming in towards walnut creek. but compared to yesterday, i think we should see more areas clearing as we go on into about our lunchtime hour. getting a late start? that's okay. upper 60s for the city to some mild 70s inland and into the afternoon. we should see a very comfortable day. some spots could get a little warm up to clear lake 89 down into parts of san martin 8485 for you in concord. we'll do low 80s down here in san jose and keep it just at 69 degrees in san francisco. but overall, a gorgeous day. and we're going to wrap up the weekend down here at levi's stadium. the tailgate party looks spectacular. lots of sunshine for everybody. and as the game goes on, we could get warm at times. so remember to bring those 49ers hats and drink lots of water as you're out there. the evening will continue to be a good one as you exit the stadium there. we're going to wish we had these temperatures as we go on into tomorrow. last day of september. first couple of days of october. if you're from the bay area you know that
7:21 am
this is another round of summer as we get ready for what is all of the orange on your screen. a heat advisory monday, tuesday and wednesday. notice there inner bay and the coast. i'm talking 80s and 90s and the potential of some offshore wind to bring that heat to our coastline. we're going to start to feel it a little bit into this evening and into tomorrow as well. and that really brings about the concerns for some fire dangers. we talked about the areas that could see some power outages as well. so take this calm day to get ready for what is ahead. we start off our workweek here with some really toasty numbers out towards concord, solano county, and even down into the south bay where some areas could get into the triple digits already. mid 80s for san francisco and the peninsula. but look here, this could be significant on tuesday. 92 in san francisco. lots of people there don't have ac. it gets even hotter there as we go on into concord 108, and those triple digits continue just around for everybody. heat is
7:22 am
the number one weather related fatality, not hurricanes, not tornadoes, not anything else. we are looking at a potentially significant event where the heat will continue on into wednesday as well. and my san francisco 7-day forecast is looking like an inland 7-day forecast where we're looking at 80s. there for the first half of the week and our inland valleys. boy oh boy. please take those measures now as those triple digit temperatures are on the board. they're good warnings there. cynthia thanks. 21 past the hour. we do have much more ahead on today in the bay coming up their final game as the oakland a's today in seattle. but it's been a roller coaster of a weekend. stay with us. sports is next
7:23 am
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
7:24 am
then appoint to commissions, including a felon convicted of bribery. san francisco's challenges demand urgency, not more of the same failed insiders. oakland a's officially comes to an end. also keeping them awake last night. yeah, they lost an
7:25 am
extra inning thriller to the mariners down a run in the top of the ninth inning. the a's down to their last out. shane langoliers clobbers a three run homer. so oakland goes up a deuce. but the mariners would answer. luke reilly jacks a two run shot in the bottom of the ninth, so the game is tied heading into bonus ball. then in the bottom of the 10th, justin turner grounds to second. the throw home is late. the mariners rally to beat the a's, seven six, in ten innings. it is a bit frustrating, you know, but you know, these guys have battled all year and they've competed. i mean, we were down to basically our last strike. and you know we tied it or we take a lead with a great at bat by shea. you know we've got our guy on the mound. and you know they end up coming right back and tying the game. so shift the momentum there, you know, and we just we couldn't capitalize back here at home. the giants taking on saint louis tied at five in the eighth brett
7:26 am
wisely laying it down. the card showing off their wild side. tyler fitzgerald scores all the way from first on the throwing error. and that was the game winner. the giants beat the cards 6 to 5. you know what. forget about seattle. nick bosa is sleepless in santa clara. the former nfl defensive player of the year says he's been tossing and turning at night after the niners lost back to back games, while the red and gold will try to get back on the winning track this afternoon when they take on the patriots at levi's stadium. both teams are one and two and have lost two in a row. the niners need a win, so bosa can get some sleep. i wish i could get it out of my head, but, but it's frustrating. it's been tough to sleep the past couple of nights. just mind racing. so yeah i mean, always this time of year. i'm itching to get to sunday, but after that, it's like major. all right. kickoff
7:27 am

7:32 am
forecasts for your neighborhood. new overnight multiple sideshows across vallejo. our photographer caught this one around 11 last night at the intersection of sonoma boulevard and lemon street. that yellow mustang losing control, crashing into onlookers standing on the street corner. at one point, another car doing donuts runs over a man. the exhaust somehow sparking and lighting the man's pants on fire. fortunately, he was quickly pulled to safety. the crowds moved to at least two more locations, ending up at columbus parkway and spring street in vallejo. our photographer says they did not see police, but the crowds dispersed themselves around 3 a.m, sticking in the east bay.
7:33 am
now new this morning, police are searching for who shot a man in an east bay neighborhood. it happened around four this morning in antioch. police say one man was shot and hurt. a man told our photographer on the scene that that victim is his brother in law. he found him outside their home on whitetail drive at huntsman way, not far from jack london elementary school. at last check, that victim was in surgery. police in san francisco are investigating what led to a shooting in the city's mission district yesterday afternoon in broad daylight. this is citizen app of the incident. police say officers responded to a report of a shooting in the area of mission and gutenberg streets. around 2 p.m, a man was found suffering from gunshot wounds and taken to the hospital. he is expected to be okay. police are asking anyone with information to come forward. they have yet to make an arrest. now to decision 2024 and vice president
7:34 am
kamala harris, now in los angeles this morning, prepping as she hits the campaign trail once again. this after she stopped for a fundraising event here in san francisco yesterday. the vice president spoke at a fundraiser at the palace of fine arts. during her speech, harris called the upcoming election. quote, one of the most important elections in the lifetime of our nation. we spoke with a couple of bay area voters. they're both told us they're interested in what the vice president had to say about her economic policies. and i thought that was encouraging. and i also appreciated that she actually is really focused on making sure that there's representation for working people and middle class and better, stuff for seniors as well. a better economy. while the vice president is in la. second gentleman doug emhoff will be on the peninsula today
7:35 am
speaking at a campaign event in menlo park. meanwhile former president donald trump, also on the campaign trail this weekend, speaking to supporters yesterday in wisconsin making negative comments about the vice president's mental abilities. he's also criticized the biden-harris administration's border policies. one day after harris visited the southern border. turning now to what once was hurricane helene. it has weakened, but the scope of the devastation continues to grow as you see behind me. communities across the southeast are in ruins. the death toll has risen from that storm. it's now 65 people in hard-hit, florida. more than 4000 national guardsmen are on the ground. so far. they've rescued 149 people and 55 animals. power, though still out for millions of people across the southeast. for many, it will be weeks until the lights are back on in georgia.
7:36 am
more than 700,000 people remain in the dark. cars lining up for critical supplies with people waiting hours at the very few open gas stations to buy water and fuel. and i would just tell you from a statewide perspective, this storm spared no one. and as tim golden, the d.o.t. commissioner, said to me yesterday, these storms are taking the soul out of me. and i know that's how people are feeling down here in north carolina. catastrophic flooding swallowed entire communities, historic communities. you see there. crews have rescued more than 200 people from raging waters. strong winds also toppled trees, power lines and cell phone towers. well, back here locally, a lot of families in california are opening their mailboxes and finding a bombshell. a letter from their insurance company saying they are losing their home coverage even if they live in a place
7:37 am
where you'd think fire risk is low. how can companies drop loyal customers so easily? consumer investigator chris chmura shows us how insurers have the upper hand for now. i feel terrible, i cannot sleep. maria espada in oakland has had safeco home insurance for 12 years, but not for much longer. safeco is dropping her. why? they chose me? because i'm good customer. i pay regularly my policy. safeco declined to discuss maria's policy specifically. state records show safeco dropped 75 customers in her zip code. plus, about a thousand more customers around the bay area. why safeco faulted the bay area's significant earthquake risk and the resulting home fires they cause are terrible. but here's the thing the state says safeco's explanation actually doesn't even matter. under california
7:38 am
law, insurance companies are free to write where they want and choose the policies they want to write. it's freedom to cherry pick. and insurance companies are using it. the department of insurance says since 2022, seven of the top 12 insurance carriers have either cut existing policies or stopped selling new ones. 408,000 policyholders are now stuck in the state's insurer of last resort, an all time high. this can't keep going on. consumer advocate amy bock says all this choosiness has put california in an impossible position. unprecedented lack of competition, unprecedented lack of options, unprecedented pricing and unprecedented pickiness on the part of insurance companies. a group called the insurance information institute speaks for the industry. california is the fourth largest insurance market in the world. we want to be here. we want to be a part of
7:39 am
it. but we do need to make some profit. insurance companies say big disasters like the wine country fires and rising reconstruction costs have pinched their bottom line over the past ten years. that's why they're paring down now. companies are having to manage how much they can insure, but they've also gotten big help hedging their bets. recently in 2020, for example, pg&e took blame for some wildfires and said it was paying an $11 billion settlement to insurance companies who'd already paid to rebuild homes and businesses. on top of that, california is now providing insurance companies a huge and growing safety net, thanks to you each month on your power bill, you pay into a newly created wildfire fund. it has $13.5 billion today to repay insurance companies tomorrow. state law will let the fund grow to $21 billion. and yet despite
7:40 am
those multibillion dollar backstops insurance companies continue cherry picking customers. so now the state is trying to negotiate with them. we're saying to the insurance companies come in the department of insurance says it's willing to let companies use new catastrophe computer models for the first time, which they want, but only if they commit to ensuring more homes in wildfire areas, which they've never done. they can't just walk away from them. they can't just say, no, that's not my job. every insurance company, in order to use those tools needs to take on and help people. the insurance commissioner's office thinks all policyholders, not just families in wildfire zones, will see more insurance options next year. that's too much. back in east oakland, maria can't wait a year to see who wins this game of chicken. she needs a new insurance policy now. so far, the only insurance she's found costs double. i'm so worried. by
7:41 am
the end, i'm going to lose my house and be part of the list of homeless people. if your homeowner's insurance company drops you, you can try to appeal. but you should also start shopping immediately. we made a video showing you to how do that. you can find it and all of our other to how videos on our website and our youtube pag. just look for the how to playlist. maria contacted our team online. you can to snap the qr code on screen right now to fill out our consumer complaint form. kris kimura always with the best info. thanks, kris. 740 right now. still to come on today in the bay a san francisco restaurant in business for more than 100 years will close unless someone comes to the rescue with the co-owners of chinatown, sam the co-owners of chinatown, sam some say it's impossible to fix san francisco. they also said you couldn't escape from alcatraz. but watch me do both. other candidates want to tear down san francisco,
7:42 am
but i'll build on what's already great to make it even better. with expanded rent control, new homes for the middle class community policing to reduce crime, and an inspector general to root out corruption. let's get to work. paid for by aaron peskin for mayor 2024. financial disclosures are available at sfethics.org ok, 500 deluxe garden gnomes. wow. i only meant to order five. there's not enough money in my account for these. i'm gonna get charged. two things i just can't deal with.
7:43 am

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. harden made the spartans women's volleyball team was supposed to take on boise state yesterday, but on friday, the broncos announced they were forfeiting the match. this marks the second
7:49 am
time this month a team is opting out of playing against san jose state. boise state athletics did not specify a reason for the forfeiture, but it came amid controversy surrounding a player on the san jose state roster who some believe is transgender. that accusation came out as part of an ongoing lawsuit against the ncaa over including transgender athletes in women's sports. in a statement, san jose state says its program follows both ncaa and mountain west regulations, adding that student athletes are, quote, in full compliance with ncaa rules and regulations. turning now to the end of this year, a beloved san francisco restaurant will close unless a new chef and buyer can keep it open after it's already 115 years in business. sam wo, in the city's chinatown, has been around since the early
7:50 am
1900s on clay and kearny streets across from portsmouth square. today, in the bay's janelle wang spoke to the legacy business owners who hope this isn't their last call. maher bailey 69 year old mr. david ho has run sam wo restaurant for nearly 45 years. he arrived from china in 1981 and has worked almost every day since. he's ready to retire. we talked to mr. ho and his son jason, who helped us translate cantonese obert. he's saying, no, no, no, he doesn't have to be really sad. it's just part of life, you know, heading towards retirement. not not much regrets. so we've been looking all summer long to find another mr. ho co-owner steven lee wants to keep sam wo in chinatown. the lease ends at the end of the year. it's not that the landlords won't renew for us, it's just that we don't feel comfortable without a really good operator to keep the samuel going that we cannot sign the
7:51 am
lease. we're looking for somebody to take over. mr. ho's family and be our partners in this community venture, or we'll sell the restaurant. we do have a national broker that's going to be soliciting samuel across the country, pictures are everywhere. like actor ken jeong, chef martin yan, and conan o'brien. samuel was actually featured in an o'brien sketch back in 2007. sam wo got it. ooh, they really got it. it's also home to san francisco's rudest waiter, edsel. customers, you know, hear people's stories. they heard about edsel. jason started working in the family business in middle school. he and his sister won't be taking over the restaurant. dad doesn't really want us to take over the family business. it's really hard work. he's here almost like every day, working, like ten plus hours, you know? and it's hard work. and he doesn't want that for us, you know, he wants us to go out, you know, find our own passion,
7:52 am
our own careers. mr. ho raised his family here. he now has two grandchildren and a third on the way or something. he's like 43 years. what he could remember or what he remember is like, you know, having family. the restaurant is known for its no nonsense service and affordable chinese food, including the popular rice noodles. i really, really love their little noodles with the char siu here. i also love their chicken wings. they have great fried rice and fried noodles. i get hungry just thinking about it right now. sam wo has spanned generations and brings up a lot of nostalgia for customers. i had, maybe 2020 $0.05 in my pocket and went up to sam wu and sat in the corner booth and looking at the menu prices and matching what i had in my pocket, what i can bring my boys share, the culture and the comfort food, especially the rolls and the big goal is to
7:53 am
bring some of the comfort food back to my parents legacy. businesses like this not only do they serve our community by feeding us and filling our tummies, but they also are reminders of how far we have come in this country and is really a testament to how hardworking chinese americans can be. it's just going to be a shame that we're going to lose another landmark brick and mortar. hopefully someone takes over and keep it in san francisco chinatown. this is a really long institution. i don't really want to go away, but it's tough. whatever happens, mr. ho says he's ready to let it go, even though all those 43 years of memories at the restaurant, you know, he's he's okay. he's content. many thanks to janelle wang for that story. hopefully someone can save sam wo. stephen lee says if they don't find a buyer in schiff, he'll auction off parts of the restaurant like the original stools and the restaurant sign. early next year. 53 past the hour. up next, a quick look at the top stories
