off. we're seeing it start to bubble up as you get higher above the level that would be kind of stable, right there. cal fire is using terminology for this fire like explosive. let me show you another way. first question probably has to be, at least from a local standpoint -- we're going to have a lot of coverage on this fire for the conditions on the ground. when you see that much smoke in california, i think a lot of people think, how much of this is coming our way? it does start to drift our way by monday afternoon. for the rest of the weekend, we should be fine. no matter how much smoke is coming off the fire, the atmosphere wants to keep it away from us. monday afternoon, the winds shift. that's something to watch closely. at that point it looks like it would just be smoke in the upper levels and not an inundation at the ground. i'll have more updates coming up in the complete forecast.

for now, back to you. we do have an update on the marsh fire in contra costa county. con fire says it's ended its flooding strategy to put out the blaze. the fire had been sending smoke for weeks into towns in the area. since it was burning it was difficult to put out. fire crews say there are no apparent hot spots or smoke they'll continue to monitor the area for flare-ups. this is what was left after a grouch criminals destroyed a long-time ice cream shop in oakland. the whole incident was caught on video. >> reporter: dramatic surveillance video shows the moment a car rams into the front window of flavor brigade. this was no accident. two people get out of the car and clear a path for the car to get further inside. the driver backs in, destroys the counter, and rams the atm. a few seconds later, two people

drag the atm out and leave the shop ransacked. >> the atm was located here. then some more wall damage. >> the co-owners are shocked and disheartened. >> it brings back, like, starting over again. >> yeah, it's like hitting the reset button almost. >> they have been in business in oakland's diamond district about 12 years. they tell me they had one break-in in the first year. >> the first one was a rock thrown through the window arc little bit of change stolen from the register. second time, shot a gun through the window. and this time, obviously, they aggressively got worse and drove a car through. >> the people made off with only about 500 bucks from that atm they stole, but in the process causes $100,000 worth of damage. >> i'd like to say optimistic, but not reallile it's progressively getting worse. we're going rebuild and it's

going to happen again? >> he says the crime goes further than damage. >> our employees are out of work. we have vendors we supply. you're effecting a lot of people for nothing. >> reporter: they say oakland police showed up and took a report, and they gave officers the surveillance video, but no update from investigators since monday. in the meantime, the shop remains closed and likely will be for a while. >> the people that come out and look are pretty blown away by what needs to be done to be back up and running. >> reporter: new at 7:00 a pedestrian has die after being hit by cal train in palo alto. this happened two hours ago. the train was headed northbound near west meadow drive. authorities say about 200 people were on that train. no injuries reported from passengers. the grade crossing at west meadow is now closed until further notice. san francisco's chinatown has been hit hard by the covid pandemic and recent crimes, but

is something she does week after week. >> we all have the same goals, the same aspirations, and if we work together as a community to get there, we can get there. >> reporter: community leaders say creating unity is an ongoing job. this event hopes celebrating different cultures can be part of the bridge necessary for having difficult conversations around ongoing racial tensions in the city. rap music and chinese dance shared the same stage on saturday. this is a development predominantly made up of chinese americans but also home to many black residents. >> us stepping up, us coming together, us condemning hate, us making investments to ensure safety and to provide resources to our small businesses. >> reporter: mayor london breed acknowledged both the difficulty of covid on local businesses and the fear of violence on aapi community members. her knewly appointed d.a. promised the neighborhood she

sex worker of any orientation or gender. the department will also be holding off on second-dose appointment as they wait for more vaccine to come in. this week san francisco got 40 4 thousand doses of monkeypox vaccine from the feds. to date, only 7,700 vaccine doses have been distributed throughout the city, and that's compared to the requested 35,000 doses. ed the the world health organization has declared the rley in recent weeks. the disease expanded to more 75 countrieand territs. the last global health emergency issued by the world health organization was in response to the covid-19 outbreak in january of 2020. still ahead, santa clara county officials want to build a new quarry, but a local native

loaded with our world famous pastrami, sauteed mushrooms, roasted red peppers, and smothered with melty american cheese. the new pastrami cheese steak. try steak or chicken, too. now at togo's in southern santa clara county, a battle is brewing over a plan to turn a native american spiritual site into an open pit sand and gravel mine. >> kpix 5's john ramos has the story. >> reporter: on the map, this area just off 101 is called sargent, but to the native americans who used to live here, it had a different name. now they're joining to fight to try to keep it from becoming a

industrial opation. just off these wind swept hills a land holding company has proposed constructing a sand and gravel mine to supply base material for regional construction projects. >> as soon as we heard about that, our tribe smoke up loutly and forcefully about this right here being our most sacred site, our sacred site for thousand of years and, we oppose that. >> reporter: valentin lopez is part of the amu muttsun tribe. he said his tribe was relocated and very few remain in the area. but he says that doesn't change the spiritual and historical importance of the hills. >> we have no protection for our sacred sites. this here was a catholic, a mormon, a jewish, buddhist or any other religion it would have

protections but because it's an amuh muttsun site it has no protections whatsoever. and that is shameful. it really is shameful. should not allow the destruction of our sacred site. >> reporter: the project was first proposed in 2015, but the environmental impact report is finished. but it is precisely the impact to the environment that has convert invitation groups joining the fight as well. >> it's considered -- universally considered one of the most important areas for wildlife connectivity. >> reporter: alice kaufman says this spot at the bottom of the suz mountains is a key point of passage from the coast to inland areas for all kind of wildlife. >> in order to get across 101, they have to go through undercrossings, and this mine is going to lie right next to the most major undercrossing through 101. >> reporter: we could not

contact the sargent ranch partners today, but they make the case that locally sourced building materials prevent trucking it in from distances but environmentalists reject that. >> we have plenty of local sources of building material. we're not at risk of running out any time soon. it's ridiculous to suggest this would be good for the environment. an open pit sand and gravel mine that would permanently destroy the landscape. >> reporter: a public comment period just opened and both the tripe and conservationists say they tend to make their voices heard by county officials considering the project. >> several cities, including, is a, santa cruz and morgan hill announced opposition to the plan. if approved by the council it could be sent to the board of supervisors for a final vote. governor newsom declared a state of emergency in the yosemite fire. said the fire is exploding and

you can get an idea of that by looking at the picture behind you. cal fire's own words on, this explosive fire behavior. and it's been effective at spotting where the embers jump ahead. so a little perspective. you're looking at the last -- that's up to now. i was letting a three-hour time lapse play on that fire. the plume was much bigger this afternoon, which likely has a lot to do with the declaration coming out in the last 30 minutes from the governor. because the intensity of the fire today was extreme. that's another word cal fire used. not my word. extreme fire behavior. there's one item behind this, besides the fact we know we're in a significant drought. what's different about the last week? you probably heard the sss t mi intense heat waves. see the areas in red? those are places over the course of the last seven days have experienced the highest temperature, the mean temperature on record going back for the last 40 days wil. we know it's been hot over there you heard the stories but maybe

you haven't heard here at home. bay area, we have been getting off easy. easy the last seven days. but there are areas in deep red right over here. that it's central sierra, foothills right outside yosemite. that area in red shows you over the last seven days, the highest mean temperature we have had on record. that's what's lending to this fire behavior more than anything else. for some perspective on that, if you wanted to see how fast the fire took off. remember it started yesterday at 2:00 in the afternoon. barely had 24 hours. that's the washburn fire. that's been going for several weeks. but most of the growth happened over a week. that happened in a day. there's the difference. you can see the perspective in size. when you look at the fire history, there are a lot of fires in 15 years but not around the perimeter. that fire still has room to grow. but it probably won't be able to grow too far towards the park. but there are communities at

risk. going to be a big story. that's our story at home. the weather is pretty much uneventful. you might not be thinking about it a lot. we're doing right on average. temperatures getting into the low 90s, barely out of the 60s in the city. 69 in san francisco now. when we look at how this plays out tomorrow, same thing. low clouds fill in the bay for the morning. we'll wake up gray. it will melt back to the beaches by 10:00, 11:00 in the morning. it will be sunny for everybody. temperatures on aench average. morning lows, mid 50s. low 90s inland. mid 70s along the bay shoreline. 8 a national security santa rosa and san jose tomorrow some it's warm, but not that far above where it should be. san jose, you keep doing that. there's no change here. when we look at the microclimates, maybe a subtle cooldown for the east bay. i know we have been advertising that a lot and it hasn't play

out that way necessarilying but still confidence in the forecast. might get 80s contra costa county. that's where you'll stay going into next weekend. charlie, over to you. thank you, darren. coming up next in sports we have an inspirational story about overcoming obstacles in live. chris o'connell was not suppose to work out growing

>> second half of the giants season is off to a rough start. back-to-back thrillers with both games going to the team in blue and white. giants are currently losing today's game. it's in the ninth inning right now. i'll have to highlights coming up. pga. weather delay at the 3m open in minnesota, but they were able to resume play this afternoon.

no problem for tony finau. makes it so save par. finau went 5 under today. he's in fourth place, seven back of the lead. it's going to be tough to catch this guy, scott piercy. he's running away with it this weekend. his approach from 270 yards out and and sticks it for a makeable putt. you can watch the final round action tomorrow right here on kpix. women's golf. these fans, oh, in the sunflower hats looking good at the championship in france. approach on 11 from charlie hull. takes a perfect bounce. into the hole for eagle. she's tied for sixth at 11 under. brooke henderson on 14, sinks it. one of her four birdies on the day. she's at 17 under and has a two-stroke lead heading into the final round. over to scotland for the senior
