days. we start out in the mid to upper 50s for most locations. if we look across the bay, we're going back into the low 90s for many of the warmest inland spolts. in the upper 70s in the bay. just a few clouds on the water but it is sunny and warm. you could call these temperatures kind of hot if you want to. like livermore 96. kind of hot. it is only a couple of degrees above average for this time of the year. so that is not a bad place to be for late june and we'll be in the upper 70s for oakland. i'll be back with the rest of the complete forecast in a few minutes. for now, devin, back to you. emotions are running high on both sides of the abortion debate after the supreme court issues the decision over turning roe v. wade. the 6-3 ruling was handed down on friday and rescinds the right to an abortion that has been in place for nearly half a century. and the access and legality has been handed back to the states. kpix 5 andrea nakano was there when protesters turned out in

6:17 am
join us for our live pride special starting on sunday at 10:00 here on kpix 5 and cbs news bay area. >> let's check on our window by the bay. in san jose, where we're waking up to clear skies. but there are some lou clouds streaming into the golden gate and you could see it from our camera on top of the mark hopkins looking north. a beautiful blanket just streaming in over the golden gate, the presidio and trying to work over toward the east bay. but pretty classic. you've got just a little bit of it right here. everybody else has plenty of blue sky to start out our saturday. and temperatures are in the low to mid-50s. which is also exactly where you would expect it to be. this is a theme that is going to run through about the next three days. we're going to sit right at average pretty much for daytime highs, plenty of sunshine, maine a few low clouds in through the immediate golden gate and that's it until we get to the warm-up that is coming by the early and
6:18 am
middle part of the next week. so you'll see that in the forecast. san jose going to 92. milpitas to 86 and on the peninsula, san mateo 84 today. but it is back into the mid-90s over here for our inland commune is. pleasanton is goog to hit 95. everybody is right where friday was. maybe a degree up or down. but to real changes. and classic, look at the 60s here. noer the water. that is part of that surge in the low clouds we were looking at right over the city. but they only make it to berkeleyond over to the immediate east bay and that is it. north bay temperatures in the mid to upper 80s and numbers in ukiah, in mendocino county, around 100. so classic summer heat. we're now fully and officially in summer. still having said that, the pacific is trying to develop
6:19 am
storms. we're not going to be concerned about that one. let's come back home and watch the way things play out today. because we are going to see the left overs of the thunderstorms that were across the central and southern part of the state, about 48 hours ago there was quite an impressive display of lightning for much of the southern half of california. there is still a little bit energy left over in the sierra today. so that is nice to see. there will be some rain with that. but there will also likely be the possibility for lightning to watch in the sierra. and that is something to keep a close eye on. for concerns closer to home this weekend, the forecast for the alameda county fair, pleasanton, no change between either day. last weekend you could pick a difference in days because it was noticeably warmer on sunday than saturday. today doesn't matter. if your plans mean you could get there today or until tomorrow, the weather doesn't change, not in pleasanton, and pretty much
6:20 am
nowhere significantly so. in the bay area it might get warmer for us if you're down in the south bay from low 70s to the low 80s in the next few days. but you could see where the heat starts to show up. so that is the middle of next week. and by 90s on wednesday. and when we look at microclimates, then we pull the triple-digits back out again by tuesday. that is a big jump where temperatures climb back up in to the low 90s and 100s by the time we get into tuesday and wednesday. thats where things stand at this point, devin. >> i'm attuned when we get to upper to mid-90s, certainly when we get the triple-digits. so middle of the week. a place for it. it is coming. >> a good way to start thinking about it and it is short lived so it is a kwquick spike and th come down again and we've done that for about the last flee weeks. we've had that same thing happen. >> thank you. >> see you. sports is coming up when we return, a do or die game in the stanley cup final.

6:30 am
day inland. and in fog for santa rosa. just enough through the petaluma gap and filling in the interior valleys in sonoma with low clouds. but it is sunny in any other inland location. and then it is another hot day today. manageable, just a few degrees above average but most inland locations will le warm. around 80 for our spots around the heart of the bay and low to mid-90s for most of the inland locations. mountain go to 84 and redwood city hits 87 and topping out at 82 in san rafael. for now, devin, back to you. we have new information on a standoff that led to a deadly shooting of a double murder suspect in san jose. on tuesday a man found dead on mt. shasta drive and he would later die. and he drove to modesto and killed a 29-year-old woman. police found the man hiding in a shed behind a home near a

6:34 am
back alley abortions under the veil of secrecy. >> i can't imagine the terror that other women have come through it. i did accompany a friend to a legal abortion and hi to hide in the closet behind a door because the abortion insisted that she be alone and he put this plastic cover on the bed and blindfolded her and left her bleeding and we had to take her to money new jersey room. >> kelly was just 11 years old living on cape kod when her family took in a friend if nebraska who had to had an abortion before roe. >> she made it very clear that they had to have the abortion. and that the only way for her to have the abortion was to leave the country. >> i will never forget it. i will never ever forget it. going in and checking in on her. she was lying on the bed and

6:36 am
same-sex marriage and other rights. we spoke to a political science professor about what could be next and how concerns people should be. >> donna, thank you for joining us. i want to ask you about what justice clarence thomas said in his opinion and that had to do for his argument why he feels that abortion is not a constitutional right. what argument is he making here and why could that spill over into other issues. >> justice thomas is saying because the word doesn't appear in the document that women don't have a constitutional right to abortion. and that is interesting in and of itself and we're seeing the huge political earthquake that comes from today's decision. but if you accept that premise, that means that other rights that also rest within the principle of privacy, our right to contraception or to marriage equality and be with the person we love, this is rooted in the idea of privacy and if he's
6:37 am
saying the word doesn't appear, well then that means that we don't have those other rights either. so those are potentially just as much at risk. >> i want to ask you about some of the issues specifically. because justice thomas mentioned calling on court to revisit the could -- contraception and what would happen in order to those things be taken away. >> procedurally, there is a some kind of a legal challenge that involved one of the rights and the legal challenge worked up through the federal courts and the supreme court decides whether it wants to take it up. that is for example how we got to today's decision on abortion. so there could be some kind of challenge around the issue of same-sex marriage or contraception and as it works its way up to the top court, the carat, if it is interested in making a change here, could use that as an opportunity to reverse previous precedent and that is how those rights could be abridged or taken away. >> so we've seen a lot of people
6:38 am
expressing anxiety about that. about those issues, same same-sex marriage and how likely or unlikely is it in your mind that these things could actually happen? >> i consider it very realistic. i don't know what percentage i would put on it. but the reason i consider it realistic is because the court actually has a 6-3 conservative, like very conservative majority now. and also we're seeing elected officials openly call for these issues to be revisited. so i think it is no longer considered a fringe position the way it might have been one to five years ago. >> top democrat and republican congressional leaders have different reacs to the high court decision. >> the right to life has been vindicated. the voiceless will finally have a voice. this great nation can now live up to its core principle.
6:39 am
that all are created equal. not born equal. created equal. >> today the republican controlled supreme court has achieved their dark, extreme goal of rip agping away a woman right to make their own reproductive health decisions. because of donald trump, mitch mcconnell and republican party, they're super majority on the supreme court and american women today have less freedom than their mothers. >> the supreme court's reversal of roe v. wade could reshape the midterm elections. abortion could become a key point of races across country and could be a factor in which party controls congress. stay up to date on the latest of the roe v. wade decision streaming on cbs bay area. coming up, cancer is one of the toughest words that a parents could hear from a doctor. this week's jefferson award

6:45 am
developments, one is in downtown san jose where google employees pick kicked off a event to encourage others to volunteer. wind on the bay and just how far inland the clouds have got even for us. because for the majority of us, it is sunny skies. especially inland. but in mt. diablo, look at the clouds streaming in. fog out there in the immediate bay. typical of what we did yesterday. plan on this day being more sunshine than anything else. unless your near the water or in the morning hours right near the bay and into the delta. concord, that is you. and we're looking at the majority of inland and contra costa county and waking up to sunny skies and it is that way all day. but there is a lot more of that gray here. this is much closer to the golden gate from the top of the mark hopkins past russian hill in the city you could see the low clouds coming in over alcatraz and holding together along the east bay shoreline.
6:46 am
but a bigger view shows us how that all melts back. and even as we get into the late afternoon today, we're going to have just a little bit of that low sliver of clouds just hanging in right over the same locations we were just looking at today. so with that in mind, let's see how the temperatures will play out. we're in the low to mid-50s out there for just about everybody. 55 oakland, 58 concord, santa rosa is 59 and for daytime highs today we're still holding on to a low and mid-90s for many of the warmer inland spots. south bay, numbers today for santa clara 92. sunnyvale 90. but up on the pennsylvania peninsula, mid-80s but wee see more in the way of low to mid-90s for our inland valleys for contra costa and alameda county. livermore has to hit 96 and danville will go to 92. we'll warm up into the low 60 toss 70s for the shoreline and back into the mid-80s through marin and sonoma and napa countries but those numbers turn
6:47 am
back into 100 for ukiah. and mid and upper 90s for mendo seena county. you'll see it in the seven-day forecast, and then beyond the seven-day forecast there is a longer lasting trend that will help keep the temperatures a little below average. that is a very well developed trough just sitting out there in the pacific. and even if that one is not coming on shore, that pattern is going to hold out here and it will help keep those big blocking ridges of heat domes from developing over california and it will keep us out of any really ominous looking significant heat for about in the next week and a half. a few thunderstorms over the sierra today but that is about it. and there should be a little bit of wetting rain with that. so that brings us to seven-day forecast. let's use san jose as our example. lowo 90s today. cooling down into the 80s this
6:48 am
week. so a nice cooling trend is in store for us over the next few days. particularly next week. and as we look across the seven-day here, what you notice what you would usually be our hottest locations, the inland valley of the east bay, we get you down into the mid-80s by the end of the next week. and even into the upper 70s by friday. it is kind of nice to see that. we don't get that often in the summer. so that is part of that trend, devin, i was pointing out just a minute ago. and as we go into early july, it looks like below average temperature wise. we could use that. >> absolutely. i will absolutely take it. but the last couple of days have been pretty hot and when you kind of in the middle or sort of late afternoon think about exercising or going on a hike, you're like, ah, it is still too hot. >> you have to take that into consideration. good news in that regard coming up for the next seven-day. >> a cancer diagnosis could be terrifying and that is a woman is introducing you to this
