7:09 am
the south bay are sending to latino voters. we're trying to educate, inform, and mobilize voters to make sure that they make their voices heard in november. julian castro worked in the white house for president obama as secretary of housing and urban development. now he is ceo of the latino community foundation. on saturday, he joined a coalition of latino and filipino organizations to promote voter turnout after latinos showed up in record numbers in 2020. latinos are 40% of california. they're more than half of the students in our public schools. the only way that california can succeed is if the latino community succeeds. trabajos asegurarnos de trabajo is the executive director at the nonprofit prosperity lab, says immigratio, job creation and the economy are key issues for this demographic. a recent study by the ucla latino politics and policy institute found that latinos have the lowest hourly wage of

7:13 am
the heels of visiting california yesterday. please join me in welcoming kristen welker, moderator of meet the press. hi, kristen. great to see you. i'm wondering, we caught something. former president obama said when he was stumping for vice president harris in pennsylvania last week, and we heard him blast male voters for what he said, quote, was coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses not to support her bid. how much do you think gender is playing into voters minds? well, look, i think that gender is a huge part of this. we're seeing an historic gender gap. we're going to see that and talk about that in the poll that we're going to be rolling out this morning. but the comments by former president obama, i think, underscore where this race is, the fact that former president trump is chipping away at harris's lead with black male voters, the fact that his lead has been increasing with that group, and the real concerns inside the
7:14 am
party that that constituency will stay at home. and so that is why you are seeing former president obama with that very stern, strong message to black male voters, to male voters writ large. now, i have to tell you, there's been some backlash to that. we're going to get into that on the panel today. did he overdo it? was it too much of a lecture? some democrats say absolutely not. he's the best person to rally male voters. so we'll get into all of that coming up today on the program. yeah. and that kind of huddle he said something like, you are not turning out for harris the same way you turned out for me when i was running for president. so it will be interesting to see what is being said on your show today. christian. thanks so much for that preview. as always, we hope you join christian for this morning's meet the press. she will have exclusive interviews with former representative liz cheney, who is a republican backing harris christian also will speak with house speaker mike johnson. you can watch it all right here. if you just

7:17 am
garnered up to 8000 visitors at rincon center in the embarcadero yesterday. organizers with the group asians are strong say it's also about celebrating different cultures and communities through the shared love of dumplings. people also could take photos and watch food demonstrations and, of course, eat. there were more than 14 vendors serving dumplings that originated in places like spain, nepal, italy, japan and china obviously called different names in other countries, there were long lines. some vendors sold out hours before the end of the festival. and, you know, i didn't expect that people were just so happy about it to all come. it really felt i had here like 8000 people running around the venue clearly is too small, so i need to find a bigger venu. lots and lots of lessons learned here, but i definitely would welcome you and invite you to next year's world of dumplings
7:18 am
event, where we will do better. wow, that's a good problem to have. organizers are hoping for some grace in this first event, telling us refunds were offered for folks who didn't get their dumplings. technology is helping visitors learn more about san jose's japantown. community leaders launched a new program putting qr codes on many landmarks in japantown. visitors just have to scan that qr code and read and hear historical information voiced by community leaders. get this the qr codes provide cultural history on the city's chinatown and filipino landmarks as well, and the codes give information in 15 languages. the project was created by mia fujikawa. a fifth generation japanese american, in san jose. a huge day tomorrow for pumpkin farmers hoping to squash the competition at the annual world championship. pumpkin weigh-off in half moon
7:19 am
bay. this is video of last year's three time winner from minnesota. his gigantic gourd weighed in at more than 2,700 pounds. tomorrow's pumpkin weigh-off is the kickoff to next weekend's pumpkin festival in half moon bay. it will include lots of food, music, arts and crafts booths, as well as a parade and a pie eating contest. the pumpkin weigh in starts at 7 a.m. tomorrow. i think we usually have that live on today too. don't we? so that's exciting. all right. time now to check in with cinthia pimentel for a look at our microclimate forecast. foggy behind us, but humid this morning. yeah that humidity did recover overnight. it's the changes have allowed people to get out there to the pumpkin patches. you know start to get into more of those fall activities. and that will continue there today. half moon bay cloudy, gloomy, but really setting the mood for people going out to pick their pumpkins. have a good time out
7:20 am
there. now, as far as the fog, everybody wondering what's going to happen with the air show for today, we will watch the marine layer this morning, but as that front sort of pushes on through from yesterday, we'll get more peeks of sunshine that's going to warm up the surface, mix some of that fog out of here. so around 2 or 3:00 everybody cross your fingers and toes that these models push the fog out of the golden gate bridge, the embarcadero, the inner bay. we will keep some down towards pacifica and half moon bay. as i just showed you there. but really, the main event for the city i think is looking good. everybody else should be in for a clear and a little bit more mild day as far as we go up inland into wine country, upper 70s, near 80, out there towards livermore and down into the south county. we'll keep it at 74 for you in mountain view for today. a little warmer for the start of our monday. should be a good time out there to celebrate the way in for the huge pumpkin. we will stay seasonable seconds
7:21 am
and 80s in our inland valleys, but by tuesday we should see some more increasing cloud cover. get into a little bit more of that moisture returning by wednesday for another chance of seeing another change in the pattern with some light moisture. i'm going to call those rain chances mainly for the north bay. so let's take it. fast forward here through about wednesday morning. you could be wearing the jacket out the door using those windshield wipers on your commute. and as we take it here, lunchtime hour looks to focus on some light rain. returns up there for the north bay. people could see as far as east and south. more mix of that sun and light cloud cover at times that should push on through and we'll get into some clearing here as we go through late week. now at the top of the hour, i mentioned that we're watching the change in the wind pattern as well. we could be watching for some offshore wind events as that high pressure returns and that usually drags the air from our inland valleys. that will be coinciding with the low. so just all of those components mixed together. we could be looking at some really
7:22 am
gusty winds for our inland valleys, and october. we are pretty used to this at times, but we don't want to talk about the possibility for fire danger of course. let's look at the 7-day forecast. together we will be watching for some low clouds, maybe towards the ocean beach side of the city, but towards the embarcadero. i see it clearing into the afternoon. we should keep it like that through about wednesday with our next chance of rain here. and then we'll watch for some clearing skies and breezy conditions there through the city as well. similar for our inland valleys. we're going to keep it cruising in the 70s and seconds. chance of rain for the north bay. wednesday, and also those gusty winds up there for the north bay and really bay area wide. just dragging some of that warm inland wind, which of course october we don't want to be talking about that. right. luckily the north bay got a little bit of drizzle and the temperatures aren't going to be too extreme. so we'll just watch that as the days go on. yeah. fingers crossed. thanks, cynthia. 22 past the hour. we have much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, the sharks hitting the ice without rookie macklin celebrini. what kept him

7:25 am
macklin celebrini on injured reserve. yesterday, the 18 year old celebrini made his nhl debut just on thursday. this is video of him on the teal carpet before the game, where he made one goal and had one assist in his debut. but celebrini was not on the ice in last night's game against the anaheim ducks because of a reported hip injury. he'll be forced to miss at least one week, and his absence was felt on the ice as the sharks lost to the anaheim ducks two to nothing. isaac lundestrom got past the sharks defense, scoring a goal with nine minutes left in the third to provide all the offense. the visitors would
7:26 am
need. the sharks have now lost their first two games of the season, both at home. 49ers linebacker dre greenlaw may be out with an injury, but he still was able to get into the action during last week's game and now it's costing the niners. take a look at this. this is arizona cardinals tight end trey mcbride tangled up with 49ers quarterback charvarius ward as the two players pushed each other over the sidelines. greenlaw you can see it coming up here. comes up from behind right there. and shoves mcbride. now he's paying for it. the nfl fined greenlaw more than $14,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct. mcbride was fined a bit less. but get this the 49ers organization was fined $100,000. meanwhile, some encouraging news for the niners wide receiver ricky pearsall is set to return to practice for the first time since he was shot in the chest, which happened during a robbery attempt in union square in
7:27 am
august. coach kyle shanahan says the niners will open pearsall practice window tomorrow. it's not clear when he will make his game debut, but it's likely to be after the team's next game against the kansas city chiefs in two weeks. 27 past the hour. just about much more ahead on today in the bay. coming up. too foggy to fly. disappointing. thousands of blue angels fans. we're tracking the conditions ahead of today's final air show. plus, one of the propositions you're being asked to vote on this election is proposition 33. we will dig deeper into the controversial plan to expand rent control across the state
7:29 am
7:30 am
bridge. there's so much fog and cloud cover. we will cross our fingers for the final fleet week air show today. thank you so much for starting your sunday morning with us. i'm kira klapper cinthia pimentel has a quick look at our microclimate forecast. how's it looking right now? we are starting off a little bit muggy in some spots as that dew point approaches our current temperature readings, we are in the 60s to start upper 60s right now in san jose with those low clouds and the fog drifting around, you can also see it socked in right there through santa rosa. so some drizzle to be aware of too, as you make that early morning drive this sunday, taking it hour by hour for you of course. fog. definitely the concern as we get ready for the big blue angel show later on this afternoon, we're going to keep that marine layer through about the morning hours, then start to see those cloud ceilings lift a little bit higher for today so that could allow them to get more of those high energy performances in the city for today, around two 3:00. and as
7:31 am
we take it temperature wise and see that outlook for this morning, we'll keep it in the low 60s and that fog through san francisco for the morning hours and then get into some clearing and even some mild numbers into the afternoon. so happy to report some better news there for today. but it could still be foggy in some parts of the city, mainly towards the west. but yesterday karl, the fog sure caused issues for fleet week fans. kira o it really did. cynthia. that low visibility you were talking about caused the u.s. navy's blue angels to cancel their planned air show, disappointing thousands of people who gathered on the marina green for that annual attraction. the air show is supposed to begin at 1230 today, with the blue angels set to take to the skies at three. but again yesterday, fleet week organizers said that after the demonstration squadron completed an observation flight yesterday afternoon, the blue angels did determine it was too foggy to perform their signature maneuvers. so all the air show fans look at them left the marina green disappointed. some
7:32 am
of them so stuck around to enjoy all the other attractions that come along with the annual event. military boat tours, a concert right there put on by the navy's rock band the destroyers, businesses on pier 39 happily invited the crowds. been a really busy day and people are still, you know, it's still a good i'm still getting a good vibe from people. everyone is still upbeat and their family is just having a good time so far, just looking around and where we're at right now, it's actually an increase over previous years for us. it's been very positive. so tomorrow actually is officially the final day. today the air show is finished, but tomorrow you can use the day off to enjoy events including the high school band challenge at the golden gate park bandshell. that's from 10 to 2, and the final ship tours, including the uss somerset at pier 27. starting at 9 a.m. and the uss tripoli at piers 30 and 32 at 9 a.m. as well. if you'd like to keep an eye on the

today, president joe biden will travel to florida to visit areas devastated by hurricane milton. biden says that experts estimate that hurricane milton caused $50 billion in damage. florida governor ron desantis says the president has approved the federal disaster declaration and freed up funds for disaster relief. power was restored for 2.5 million customers in the first 24 hours after the hurricane hit. emergency fuel depots are set up across florida now to decision 2024 and the race for the white house. with just 23 days until election day. both candidates are on the campaign trail this weekend. as we reported yesterday, former president donald trump took a detour from battleground states to come to california. he spoke at a rally in coachella, which is southeast of palm desert. political experts predict two reasons for the late campaign
7:35 am
stop and a deep blue state. money for one. photos with the former president cost $25,000 each. the second to energize local republicans to get out and vote for congressional candidates. the former president hit a number of familiar topics at the rally, and called california a, quote, paradise lost because of democrats. trump returns to arizona today for a rally. meanwhile, vice president kamala harris is in greenville, south carolina, today after a stop yesterday in north carolina. that's a state where she trails her rival in the polls. the vice president met with black leaders in raleigh this following the release of a summary of harris's medical records. the white house physician deemed harris a healthy 59 year old who eats a healthy diet and gets regular exercise. harris is inviting trump to release his as well. she told reporters she plans to
7:36 am
draw a stark contrast between herself and the former president. harris returns to washington, d.c. if you haven't received your ballot yet, it's likely on the way right now before you head to the polls. we are breaking down some of the state issues that you will see on your ballot. rental housing is one of the foremost concerns for many across the state, and especially here in the bay area. it's called proposition 33 and it's supposed to address that today in the bay's joe rosato jr. takes a closer look. for every renter, there's that stressful time of the year when the mail might hold a notice of a rent increase. vicki sanford cobb knows that feeling well. when i'm looking through the mail, i'm totally stressed. in san francisco, some 250,000 units built before 1979 fall under the city's rent control. but more modern buildings like sanford cobb's aren't covered by rent control, subjecting tenants
7:37 am
to larger increases. they upped the rent and then they upped it again. so every year, basically, they start upping the rent. for many residents, those annual increases may eventually price them out. once the rent goes up and the food is up. i mean, we have to go without it. we see it over and over and over. tenants who lose their homes because of rent increases. tenant organizers like fred zimmer of the san francisco housing rights committee will often cite the 1995 costa-hawkins act, a state law that limited cities from expanding rent control. it's prevented san francisco city leaders from expanding rent control to single family homes and newer buildings. that's not under rent control, that's not under rent control, that's not under the rent control. but prop 33 on the november ballot could change that. this measure would allow cities and counties to expand rent control to cover newer construction. prop 33 wouldn't automatically implement rent control statewide, but
7:38 am
daniel anderson of the yes on 33 campaign says it would give cities the option of enacting new rent controls, which he says could bring relief to many renters. we see everywhere, all across the state, folks are being priced out of their homes, priced out of their units. people can't afford to stay in the communities that they've grown up in. there are so many things wrong with prop 33. i don't know where to begin, but gustavo gonzalez, a san jose apartment owner, says expanding rent control would be a huge hit to landlords already strapped with many expenses. we've saved our money and we've invested in an apartment building with the hopes that one day we could retire and have some income from that property. well, that's not the way it's working with all of these rules and regulations that cities have mandated upon us. san jose mayor matt mahan also opposes prop 33. he believes an expansion of rent control will actually make it harder on low income families. study after study has shown that while rent control can stabilize the folks who are lucky enough to be
7:39 am
covered by it, it decreases investment in new housing, which is the single greatest need we have when it comes to affordability. we all want to stay in the building and not end up on the streets. sanford cobb is hopeful that prop 33 would bring relief for her and other renters, making it safe to check the mailbox again. joe rosado, junior one step up and then you take three steps back. nbc bay area news. 39 past the hour. there are a lot of issues to learn about before the election, and we are here to help. just scan that qr code on your screen. it will take you straight to our website where you will find a full voter guide, including to how register to vote and details on all of the key races. i believe you have about another week to register to vote. still to come on today in the bay. boeing announcing layoffs are on the way. this comes amidst the company's growing safety concerns and a strike by its workers. how many people they an topl

pretty much concentrated towards the north, clearing out into thursday, setting us up for yet another change in our weather pattern. so try to keep up here with me as we explain this a little bit, we're going to set up a system of high pressure that's going to bring in some of that inland wind as we go through the next couple of days, late week. notice how we shift the directions there as we go on into late thursday, overnight hours of friday turning really gusty as we go through parts of the north bay, even the coast. so some of that warm air will trickle to our coastline as well. it is late october as we go through this forecast here, and that puts a little bit of concern for me as far as fire conditions, not enough moisture to get us out of those critical fuels over the next couple of days. so just something to watch with us as we go through the 7-day forecast. san francisco 60s temperature wise, will warm it up a little bit towards the end of the week into

the dramatic first catch of the rocket's super heavy booster. three two, one. two five. starship lifted off just before 630 this morning from spacex's starbase facility near brownsville, texas. the booster, which stands 20 stories tall, returned back to the launch site where it was caught in chopstick arms. as they're called on the tower. the starship separated and continued on to space before reentering the atmosphere and splashing down all the way in the indian ocean. meanwhile, boeing, announcing that it will lay off 10% of its workforce and end its 767 freighter program by 2027. the ceo sent an email saying layoffs will impact executives, managers and workers. the aerospace giant is dealing with challenges facing
7:48 am
mounting issues, including questions surrounding its safety record, and that strike by 33,000 machinists. that's about to enter its fifth week. the company's ceo said the 777x program is delayed. those orders won't go out until 2026. well, early voting has begun for the 2024 presidential race in 33 states. california began early voting last monday, giving voters a four week window by election day. 46 of 50 states will have provided that opportunity for their voters. nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston is here. great to see you. so how widespread is early voting? people can do it, but are they doing it? listen, if you went back to 2020, the middle of covid, remember that. yeah. who can unfortunately forget it, right? yeah. one third of the votes came in before election day. one third of the votes. that's an awful
7:49 am
lot. it's a big, big chunk. and when they did come in democrats had a 3 to 2 margin a 3 to 2 margin in that in that in that race. okay. one third. democrats have a 3 to 2 race. that's big. now this year it's even bigger. democrats have a 5 to 3 ratio in terms of a margin i should say that's a nice hetty lead early going early going well. former president trump is really pushing his base to get out and vote early. we know that early voting allows flexibility for the voter. instead of rushing out on that tuesday. but what does it mean in terms of the total vote downstream? that's the funny part. remember i said democrats had that big lead? yeah. go back to 2020 again. and yes, biden won. he won by 7 million votes. okay. pretty good. but in terms of the overall percentages, it was 51 to 47, 51 to 47. that's a lot different than a 3 to 2 margin.
7:50 am
so that difference really closed up as republicans came in to vote in large and large numbers. not enough to win, but in large numbers. so how do you explain that kind of, you know, democrats are jumping out to large early vote leads only to end up neck and neck with republicans. this this is a big part of their portfolio. democrats make it a point to go out and vote, vote, vote and do it early, early, early. they want to get those votes in as fast as they can. they don't want to leave it to chance. they don't want to worry about people coming out at the last minute. when they canvass, they always ask their voters, get out there. and it made a difference in that sense. okay, that's important. but the question is what happens from there? yeah. so now i'm going to ask you that that was a perfect setup. so what can we expect from early voting in terms of, you know, forecasting the election outcome. kari. this is a curious problem, okay? because in 2020, trump went ahead and just damaged the whole idea of early voting. he derogated it was terrible. don't do it. don't do it. it's part of
7:51 am
a rigged election. and even this year he's saying, don't do early voting. don't do early voting. but the republican party, republican leaders have said yes, please come out. please come out and vote early. i'll tell you something. this may be the key to republican success. if they can get out in larger numbers over these next three weeks and get a bigger percentage of early voting in, that could be the tipping point in a very, very close election. so we want to watch these numbers as they get close to november 5th. but then we also want to see what happens afterwards. and that's going to lead to the whole conclusion 21 days plus two. but who's counting. all right larry thanks. 751 right now. up next, a quick look at the top stories we're covering, including the fleet week air show yesterday, hitting a snag after a san francisco's infamous fog forced the blue angels to cancel their show. cynthia tracks the weather conditions today. after this. this is today in the bay.
