it will not be that kind of hea wave where the heat makes its way all the way to the coast an you still get the relief. let's take a look at the high temperatures from today as we look at the fog making its way across the bay. normal temperatures today and normal temperatures again tomorrow before the heat starts to build everybody tomorrow is within a degree or two of what is averag for the 13th day of july. temperatures in the 60s and 70s around the bay and the hottest spots are in the low '90s. saturday and sunday we are unde an excessive heat warning for all inland parts of the bay area, but not all inland parts of the bay area will experience the same temperatures. low 90s in the santa clara valley, mid-to-upper 90s for most of th north bay, but more likely to reach triple digits inland in the east bay. just plan on staying hydrated no matter what your weekend plans are, and mak sure to check on anybody who might be sensitive to health -related heat issues. we will take a look at the specific

numbers we can expect as we hea through the weekend in a few minutes. >> i'm glad we have days to prepare for this, because a lot of people in the east and north bay will be very hot. thank you paul. if you live in a fire-prone area, you know stress all too well. you know the stress of clearing defensible space, having a go bag ready at all times, and maybe you have even had to use it if you have been evacuated. now there is a new concern. this week farmers allowed state farm and allstate to cap california policies, leaving people in a very tough spot. just three weeks ago the snow fire burned 100 acres in the area. even the most prepare are now finding that they are out of luck with their insurers >> there were trees right here and i cleaned them up. it was pretty clear, actually.

>> reporter: mark knows all about the fire risk in this community. >> it is about a 25 minute response time for people to get out here. >> reporter: he would know. he is the local fire chief and he lives behind the local firehouse. but all that was not enough to save him from the letter. >> your policy will be terminated as of the nonrenewal date and time shown above. >> reporter: the chief is not alone. there is his neighbor robert. >> it was reasonable and then they jacked it up to $6000 per year. >> reporter: the insurance horror stories continue all the way up the hill, where karen whitmore's house barely escaped the lmu fire.

political showdown with the insurance industry. >> reporter: harvey rosenfield is talking about the debate ove how insurance markets should operate as a changing climate drives increasing risk and soaring costs. >> for people right now who are searching for an insurance company, there is something called the fair plan. >> we got california fair housing, which does not cover a much, but it does cover fire. >> i have been shopping around, but the problem is it is skyrocketing. >> reporter: as for amador, he got another letter from his mortgage provider. >> i don't even want to raise m head and say, look at me. i'm sure they will cancel me. >> reporter: there are 183 home and every single one of them is considered at severe risk of

fire, driving up the cost of living in this quiet corner of napa county. >> not a lot of good options fo these people, but did you get a sense from them what any of the plan to do? >> a lot of folks are left with few choices but the state plan, which is considered a moderate price with not great coverage. if that is your best option to stay covered, that is probably the best you can do right now. you do what you can. if you think it is going to be hot in the bay this weekend, wait until you hear what is ahead for death valley. a california woman turns he yard into an illegal rv park and the neighbors have somethin to say about that. this mom went to the hospital in labor but ended up

having the baby in her bathroom after this advice. the bills arrived, and we will give you a little hint. there was

dozens of people showed up at san francisco's police commission meeting this evening

a lot of them incredibly upset that the police response to saturday's unsanctioned skatin event in the san francisco mission district. sfpd said people were throwing bottles an rockets at the officers , but many of the meeting said that officers used to too much force and help minors in custody for hours. >> they weren't doing anything. i don't understand why they wer held without like, okay, here, it is time to go. why were they kept there for so many hours? i had to go and get him. his wrists were almost pleading. >> sfpd said vandals did tens o thousands of dollars in damage to muni vehicles. take a look at this. this i not an rv park. this is somebody's yard in a suburban

l.a. neighborhood. neighbors said the owner is renting them out with no electricity and no sewer service. >> we are all upset about it. i could smell the feces and everything else. >> neighbors are so upset about this that they started a petition and contacted the city attorney. the property owner ha been cited for having unlawful structures and failing to keep the area clean, but neighbors say the city needs to do more and haul the rvs away. a local council member says she is working on it. paul is here and we have a heat wave coming up, but it could hit 131 degrees in death valley this sunday. that is furnace creek living up to its name! >> that is not only a very high number when you take it in initially, but it is significan because the record for death valley is 130 degrees. the hottest reliably-recorded temperature not only in death valley but on earth is 130

degrees. so if the official sensor actually hits that level we would be in a spot that we have not been since weather records have been kept. there are other unofficial temperatures that have been recorded that are hotter than that, some in death valley, som in the middle east. we are talking about the official sensor's reliable recordings. i is going to be cooking. >> video will never do that justice. this guy's shorts need to be a lot shorter. i can imagine. >> it is going to be incredibly hot there. we are in for a brie heat wave compared to what they are dealing with. let's check out what is in store. areas of fog then one more normal day tomorrow. he begins to build up on friday and then the heat warning goes into effect for inland parts of the bay area saturday and sunday. tomorrow the heat risk, basically the threat of overexertion is mostl in the low category. the moderate spreads out on friday

before we add a few patches of high heat risk on saturday, which indicates the potential for even folks who are not sensitive to heat -related health concerns to maybe have the threat of just over exertin a little bit. we will track the for the hottest parts of the bay area. the national weather service has lumped all inland parts of the bay area into the excessive heat warning , including in the santa clara valley. this is nowhere close t record territory. where you really need to be cautious as far inland and in the east bay and far inland in the north bay with you credit ukiah around 10 degrees and then around santa clara and morgan hill getting around 100 degrees. have a plan to stay cool. this is also the type of weather pattern that traps pollution near ground level. it is even possible that we will add some unhealthy air polity readings to the mix saturday and sunday during the

peak of thwave. for now we have a little fog trying to clean been as we look out from the mark hopkins hotel. the fog will make not much progress int the inland valleys. temperature start off in the mid-to-upper 50s tomorrow morning. high temp tomorrow only reach up to the low 60s along the coast. we wil not lose the marine influence even once the heat builds in. 70s and 80s down around the peninsula with mostly 80s in th santa clara valley. morgan hill and gilroy, you will overachiev a little bit, getting up to 90. the hottest spots are only in the low 90s, around antioch and brentwood. same thing in fairfield. 60s and 70s around the bay, and all these numbers are within a degree or two of what is normal. mainly 80s for the north bay until you go further north. upper 90s for clearlake and you are much more likely to get into the triple digit territory by the time the weekend rolls around. around th

bay, no such concerns. low 70s saturday and sunday and inland parts of the bay area are cooking. upper 70s to around 80 degrees for oakland this weekend. inland temperatures, this is why we have first alert on saturday and sunday. low 90s in san jose. we are unlikely t set records with even the hottest spots in the east bay staying below record territory, but on saturday a lot of folks are going to go from here to here, or at least want to do that, so be prepared for crowds on westward roads leading towards the coast. matt? thanks, paul. coming up in sports, this has to be the most bizarre story of the day. an nf super fan turned bank robber! i will explain. but first, steph curry getting ready to play in the annual celebrity golf tournamen this week. we got his thoughts before he faces off against a former rival
