>>it's open with trails for hiking and stunning views of the bay area. a public celebration is set for october 26th and the san francisco giants have agreed to a six year, $151 million contract extension with all star third baseman matt chapman. chapman will receive 25 million per season through 2030, along with a $1 million signing bonus. chapman is one of two third basemen in giants history to record at least 30 doubles, 20 home runs and ten stolen bases in a season. all right on to our first alert weather now. darren, a lot of us have been sweating it out under a heat advisory, but finally,

>>some relief >>on the >>horizon. we got >>we >>made >>it. we >>did we did. having said >>that oh, >>no. they extended the heat advisory. >>oh, >>no. but here's the thing about that. >>we'll be okay. >>we will. it was more of a technicality. the forecast didn't change. in other words, we're going to be just as hot tomorrow as we knew we would be. so the relief you're talking about technically has already begun. we're cooler today than we were yesterday. >>it did feel a little. the edge was off today when we walked outside, >>and we're going to take more of that edge off tomorrow. and then by saturday, we will stop saying things like heat advisory for the weekend. let's visualize where we still have an issue though. so we're going to bring in our virtual map, and the heat advisory covers the same exact places that it did yesterday. so that's where we need to start. all the areas on the map that are included in this salmon color on here, this now goes until 8:00 on friday night so that's even a little better. initially these things were always set to expire at

11:00 at night. sounds a little better. it's only going until 8:00 tomorrow. and when we put the daytime highs on here, you'll see the improvement. so these are the numbers for friday. and they're very similar to today. there may be a few degrees cooler. we are going to take a little more of the edge off tomorrow. so a good example would be to look at those inland valleys over there, which are still well within the heat advisory in fact, let's get back over there and call out concord and livermore this is always the trouble spot. concord. your number today was pretty much sitting right around 100. so we do get you down a few more degrees tomorrow. same thing in livermore. your number is going to come down a few degrees there as well. and when we look at the actual daytime highs on here, give you an idea on how that's going to play out. those numbers are going to top out pretty much right about exactly in the low 90s. so san jose you'll go to 92. you'll see similar numbers of an improvement along the peninsula. and san francisco will be staying in the 70s. the way we're going to break this. this is a little better tomorrow, but the way we're really going to break this heat wave bring it to its knees and

pretty much bring this to an end completely. that's going to happen on saturday. so what we need just for a moment, let's go to the big monitor. i want you to see the relief because this is very fall like what is about to happen. you look up at the satellite imagery. there's nothing on here that would tell you anything is about to change until you look at it a little more deeply and when you look at the water vapor, all of a sudden you see a counterclockwise spin. when we get into winter those counterclockwise spins. this is how storms look. areas of low pressure coming in off the coast that one is just about to come into the coast. if we're looking at satellite and we want to look ahead we have to visualize it slightly differently. watch that red bull's eye. come right across northern california tomorrow. and if we put it into the futurecast where you can actually visualize this, you're going to see the clouds and maybe even an isolated thunderstorm or two right there. move across northern california. that gets us into friday and saturday that looks kind of like fall that's a weak little weather system moving into the northern third of the state. let's go over to the seven day forecast, because now

we're going to see it show up when we take a look at the numbers across the inland microclimate, which is really where we need that relief. the most. so that's where we're going to start. so at 97 tomorrow, these are the numbers we just saw by saturday you're going all the way down to 90. and then look back here. daytime highs in the mid 80s 87 would pretty much be the average daytime high. so for early next week your numbers are going down below average. you'll be sitting at 84. and we'll round this out. now we'll show the bay and this just kind of generalizes how things will be going here. as well. and it does show you the relief that's coming. your way. increase in the marine layer perhaps by next week. but i mean it's we're getting into september liz. and this is the time of year where you know how we always have fun with migraines. >>oh yeah. >>july, >>august >>september doesn't get one of those. >>yeah. >>so we start saying goodbye to the marine layer as we start to transition towards this time of year. >>and though those 80s are going to feel really good and 70s by the bay and the coastline

>>yeah. >>can't >>wait. coming soon. >>thank you darren. >>see >>you. well, just two months from now voters will help decide the fate of the great highway in san francisco with proposition k. it's already drawn a lot of emotions on both sides. anne makovec is with us to explain the measure and the debate. anne. >>yeah liz. this is prime oceanfront property. so should it be used for people to travel up and down the coast, or to give people a little more space to enjoy the view? ballot measure would permanently close the great highway to cars for the span between lincoln and sloat and transform it into a public park. it's an idea that started with the pandemic, popular pilot program closed the road to cars on weekends opening it up to pedestrians and cyclists. prop k would allow the city to build infrastructure to make great highway park permanent seven days a week. the yes on k campaign says this will make the oceanfront more accessible, and that it will revitalize small businesses on the city's west side. they also point out that the southern part of the

great highway is set to close to cars regardless, by early 2026, so they say this is an opportunity for people to enjoy the ocean in ways you can't on the beach >>whether that's parents with a stroller, people in wheelchairs, people riding bikes. they want to enjoy our coast in an active way because this is an active city and a park promenade allows them to do that. >>reporter opponents of the plan, though, call it a great highway robbery. they say the closure will make getting around the sunset district more difficult and congested, and they have concerns about the environmental impact of a park by the ocean >>cinco de mayo we're being cars are being shut out. i hate to say this, but busses and bikes are not the only way to get around town. >>the measure needs a more than 50% majority to pass. liz. >>all right anne, thanks so much. well, still ahead, we'll talk live with some of the major players in the great highway debate and ask them, is it time for a change? stay with

us

>>the voices are growing louder in san francisco on both sides of proposition k on san francisco's november ballot. if approved, it would mean permanently banning cars from the upper great highway south of golden gate park and converting the area into a public recreation space for pedestrians and cyclists. today, we are hearing from both sides of the issue. joining me now is political commentator richie greenberg, who wrote the argument against proposition k. richie, thanks so much for being with us. >>my pleasure. thank you for having >>me. well, on paper, prop k seems like a great thing, right? a great place to take families. drivers are already having to

reroute because of the southern end of the highway being closed for coastal erosion. why do you think that there are misconceptions about this measure, though >>well, first, thank you for having me on elizabeth. this is a really important story to be telling voters here in san francisco. and the reason is because this is among the most bizarre, most deceptive and and misaligned piece of legislation that i have ever seen in the 25 years, almost, that i've been living here in san francisco. this is a solution in looking. it's looking for a problem. we we don't have a problem we we have, as you see right now on on screen, there is a two way lane. we have we have north south major road and we have to the east of it just feet away is a paved pathway for joggers and dog walkers to use. so this prop k is claiming that it has been a park over the last few years which it has not. walking

on asphalt riding a bicycle on asphalt does not make this a park. there are so many false claims, so many bizarrely false claims that that the proponents, those who are supportive of closing the street, closing the road, are making, and what we're doing is we're pushing back. >>this feels a lot like the closing of jfk drive. just a few years ago, voters decided to keep it closed to cars, but there were similar concerns about it. is this idea different than that? because we've seen how that area is really popular now? >>well it's completely different because this is an existing very highly used during the week volume of cars and trucks and delivery and, and patients going for treatment and students and tourists all use this. this is a a a ongoing it's a it's a road. i actually resided about an hour and a half ago. coming up from the south, people commute on this. thousands of

people. it's not abandoned. it's not redundant. it is actually in use. what you're seeing right now is not on the weekday like the weekdays. what you're showing right now on screen is on the weekends. and they make the claim the pro-prop k people claim that this is the i'm sorry, the third most visited park in the city today, which i call completely hogwash. now they need to come clean. these people who are yes, unc have to tell us why on earth do they want to blockade this road? why do they want to stop people from being able to freely travel between the richmond district and the sunset district? it makes no sense. there's no logic at all behind this at all. >>one quick question, though, richie, before i let you go, you know you're claiming in your argument that it's going to add to more traffic in the surrounding neighborhoods that at one point were very quiet that's why the people that live there moved to those areas. but a city report found that that

actually wasn't the case, that it didn't add congestion. >>well, that's that can't be true, because if you have 10,000, 20,000 cars coming through where are they going to go? they're being diverted off of the they would be diverted off of the upper great highway into the neighborhoods to then go parallel and then cut back to over where they were trying to get to in the first place. so claiming that this is going to not cause congestion, it's not possible. if you stop the cars coming into there completely, then yes, that would reduce. but you're not stopping them. you're just making them fan out and go through side streets that are not designed for that kind of traffic flow. >>richie greenberg, thank you so much for being here >>my pleasure. thank you for having me on. >>now people who do support proposition k point out a separate chunk of the great highway will soon be closed regardless. joining me now is san francisco supervisor joel and engardio. thank you so much for being with us. you support

proposition k a big concern with this park is that it would create traffic gridlock, as we just were mentioning in the surrounding neighborhoods that used to be relatively quiet. what is your argument to that? that it actually won't have an impact? >>well, what we have to understand is that the greatest highway has actually already lost its greatest utility and that was a way for folks in the richmond district to bypass san francisco and head to daly city and the peninsula. as you mentioned, there's a section of the road south of sloat that's literally falling into the ocean. it's already been legislated to close. so mother nature has thrown us a lemon, so to speak, that we will never be able to use a great highway for highway to get to daly city directly anymore. so that opens up the opportunity. the lemonade, so to speak, of what should we do now? what's the best use of the section between lincoln and sloat, which, by the way, has no on and off ramps, and so under the closure, south of sloat, people would have a dead end that forced left turn at sloat and work their way around the zoo

to get to point south or we're suggesting, why don't we turn left at lincoln instead and take sunset boulevard to the same point south? and in the process, we can get a park on this section of the great highway. and it's also important to note that the section of the great highway that actually connects the sunset and richmond neighborhoods is not under consideration for closing. people say, oh, the great highway is closing we only we have to talk about one section between lincoln and sloat. the area that people actually connect with access points that's going to be open to cars 24 over seven. so, and as far as the folks who did use great highway on their way to point south, you know when their sand episodes, it's already closed up to 65 days a year. anyway during the work week. and there's not a carmageddon because cars naturally divert to sunset boulevard already. but we're going to make traffic improvements. so, lincoln will have a faster flow, replace some stop signs with traffic lights. we're going to make improvements on sunset boulevard. so the cars are going to be able to flow and

get where they need to go, and we get a park out of the deal. >>i want to point out, though, that this proposition only really impacts the people who live in this particular part of the city. should this issue be left up to the people who live in the area versus the san francisco voters at large, who this may not impact at all. it's too far from their home. >>actually, it impacts everybody. you know why the coast belongs to every san franciscan. the coast does not belong to one car driveis or ev neighborhood belongs to all of us and what we're doing already on the weekends is the third most visited park in san francisco. and rec and park has the data to show it. there is already a demand for people from all over san francisco to come out and see the coast. in a way they cannot see it with just ocean beach. think about it if you're an elderly person in a wheelchair or a cane, you can't walk on the sand but you can get this promenade that we have. you can bring your kids out and learn how to ride a bike on the promenade. so

you're seeing this popularity already with no cost and just closing the road just on the weekends so imagine the potential of what this park could become in the future. i see it as a once in a century opportunity to really transform san francisco. we haven't had an opportunity like this since we built the golden gate bridge. this park could be something that every tourist wants to visit, which means it will be good for business, be good for our local economy it'll bring joy to generations of people and it's good for the environment. so it's a win all around and we can fix the traffic issues. we already know how to divert the traffic. we already know that traffic volume on sunset boulevard is down 30%. so there's capacity. so this will work out just fine. and it will be a feather in the cap for san francisco. >>san francisco supervisor joel engardio, thank you so much >>thank you

i came to bayview hunter's point, where there was only one pediatrician to serve more than 10,000 children. daniel lurie said, i'm going to help. we opened a clinic for our most vulnerable children. i have worked shoulder to shoulder with him as we have brought solutions where people thought the problem was unsolvable. daniel doesn't take excuses. he holds himself accountable. and i know that he can do it for the city of san francisco.

>>after waiting all of training camp, the niners finally have all their stars in the building for more, here's matt lively with the red and gold report >>this is the audi red and gold report the 40 niners have named brock purdy christian mccaffrey,

deebo samuel george kittle kyle juszczyk trent williams fred warner and nick bosa. that's a mouthful. as team captains for 2024. and with that honor comes a nice little off the field >>perk. >>i heard we got a parking spot, so that'll be nice i'm wondering if trent williams or brandon aiyuk got any perks with their new deals. after a summer filled with contract negotiation drama, both players are back at practice, much to the relief of their teammates and coaches. i was on the other side of it last year, and i was super excited to get back. i may have even been more excited for them to show up. i know how important they are to our team. i just love both of them as people, so it's good to have them. it's awesome to get everyone here. couldn't be more excited than that, but that ends as soon as you enjoy that. and that usually lasts as soon as you start thinking about the game plan and what you're doing at practice. and then it becomes real football for the red and gold report, i'm matt lively >>and coming up right here at 5:00, a bay area high school football team giving us all
