it's technically the first full day of fall, but you absolutely would not know it just about anywhere in the bay area today. some bay area cities actually broke records today, and you shouldn't expect a cool down just yet. we're tracking a heat advisory. i can't believe we're talking about that at this point. it was even hot in the city. >> it was the hottest day of the year, hottest day of 2024. it was extremely hot out there. but it's not going to stay as hot for as long. that's always good news on the way. even this evening it's quiet and calm. i hope everyone can maybe enjoy themselves, enjoy clear skies one of the few nights we're not dealing with a lot of fog to kickoff this evening. weather alert day remains in effect through tomorrow though, along with the heat advisory; temperatures across the bay area in the 70s. mid-60 in santa rosa. santa rosa reached 100 degrees this afternoon, though. tomorrow it's not expected to be nearly as hot, though. as that area of high pressure sitting directly

overhead today, it's really interesting. you can actually see the upper level clouds rotating around that area of high pressure right now, and it's only going to continue to make its way further east over the next 24 hours. as it does, though, it will still dominate our weather into tomorrow. but notice how far back the fog is. we're not going to be waking up to fog tomorrow morning like we have for the past couple of weeks, couple of months even. changes are on the way as it is officially fall. it's our season of transitions, and quite a few pick up over the next several days. we'll have more details coming up in just a bit. and i'm looking forward to it because it makes my job a lot more exciting and interesting as a meteorologist not having to talk about the same thing every day. >> that's nice. thank you so much. we appreciate it. getting a kid through school is not easy no matter the grade level. there's always some level of drama. but it's also extremely important. and parents at san francisco unified school district has

added stress. now the mayor is sending in a rescue team. >> i'm feeling tired and, you know, i think it's been really been overwhelming to be a parent here. >> reporter: with two kids in the san francisco unified school district, meredith dodson is feeling the years of chaos and mismanagement from a district now under the supervision of the state. >> it's concerning that we need this help, right? it's concerning that we need this stabilization team to come in and we can't figure it out ourselves. >> reporter: that team is bringing some hope to parents after a departure of over 4,000 students and a 400 million budget definite, mayor london breed announced the state is sending in a stabilization team, including experts she hopes will improve

communication, balance the district budget, and set a road map for success. >> everyone is rolling up their sleeves and providing their expertise to build capacity for the school district to focus on the short term goals we have, and ultimately the long term impact. >> reporter: the mayor has limited power over the district, where the board of education has authority. but the new stabilization team will also unlock more than $8 million of unused student funds. short term relief. but it's a long way from the hundreds of millions the district must cut. but meredith says the team is providing some relief for parents kept in the dark about their students' future. >> feeling a little optimistic given the additional financial resources coming in to help as well as a team of experts coming in to help. so that leaves me hopeful. >> students, parents, and teachers are expected to talk about and make comments at the board of education hearing

tomorrow. for employees at one south bay transit agency, their job turned into a crime scene again when a man allegedly killed his own coworker. police say it was a dispute over gambling debt turned violent. >> reporter: it's the start of the work week for many santa clara transportation authority employees. but it's a somber monday. a memorial has been set up to remember the life of reggus, a bus driver with the vta for ten years. >> he was father to two teenage children, and everyone at vta extends their deepest condolences to his family and friends. >> reporter: santa clara sheriff deputies and san jose police rushed to the bus yard along the 2200 block of 7th street friday night where they found reggus dead from gunshot

wounds. investigators say a 33-year-old vta bus driver shot at him near his car. they arrested him at his home on sunday. >> we believe the motive was money owed between the two for their betting activities. >> reporter: the shock and pain the vta community is feeling isn't new. three years ago, at a different yard, 57-year-old employee sam cassidy opened fire killing nine vta coworkers before shooting himself. >> it's particularly hard at home. especially at vta given the history that we've had there going back three years. >> reporter: meanwhile, the sheriff's office says the suspect did not have a criminal record. they'll have extra security at all of the vta yards. >> so we'll continue to work with our partners to keep these communities and work places safe because work place violence is a concern of not only the sheriff's office, but organizations throughout the country. >> the suspect is booked at the santa clara jail and is expected to be arraigned in court on

wednesday. the u.s. is sending more troops to the middle east as fighting ramps up between israel and hezbollah in lebanon. they say they'll be ready to get americans out as tensions have really flared. missile after missile, over 1300s struck southern lebanon, one caught on a dash camera. this terrified family watched missiles rain down on their town. calm down, mother, and pray, a man said. dozens of women and children were killed according to the lebanon health ministry, but israel says it was targeting hezbollah weapons storage that held things like cruise missiles. these videos appear to capture secondary explosions after the initial air strikes as the weapons detonated. israel's government is warning civilians to flee from buildings used by the u.s. designated terror group. >> they place rockets in

your living rooms and missiles in your garage. those are aimed directly at our cities and citizens. >> reporter: highways were packed with drivers trying to escape. hezbollah exchanged fire of its own, but there were no reports of israeli deaths. to avoid missile strikes, doctors and nurses are working out of an underground parking garage at a hospital in northern israel. tonight buildings went up in flames in lebanon villages in the strike zone. the israeli military says they hit at least 1500 targets in lebanon and they would continue to strike. the a's owner seems to have thought he was writing a love letter to fans. one problem, they're interpreting it as, well, this. >> it's just a slap in the face. >> the good bye note that was about as well received as the a's decision to dump oakland. and there are a lot of people divided over what to do with san francisco's great highway. the battle over whether to close it for good. and we've seen our fair

share of california bear sightings, but it will take an act of god, plywood, and a few nails to this get this one out of a so cal house.

for 8 grams of fiber, we've been talking about this one for awhile, and this week the oakland a's play their final three games at the coliseum. that's been their home for 57 years. and if you want to know how fans feel about that, they've been making funeral comparisons to events come this week. john fisher wrote his own good bye to oakland fans that went over as well as you might expect. the eight paragraph letter claimed leaving the city is very hard for him. there was even a reflection on the powerful earthquake that hit the stadium during the world series. fans mostly seem to hate the letter and they don't like the timing either. kelsey thorud reports. >> reporter: in what was supposed to be a week of emotional celebration for a's fans, many have instead started the week with a bad taste in their mouth.

>> i can't believe athletics pr allowed john fisher, a letter from john fisher, to go out to this fan base. >> reporter: on monday, just one day before the a's begin their final series in oakland before moving the sacramento, embattled owner john fisher released this letter, saying he did all he could to try and keep the a's in oakland, but failed. brian, a die hard a's fan and cofounder of baseball's last dive star said he couldn't believe it when he read it. >> it just blows my mind that they would put that out there and just double down on a year and a half, two year, just nightmare of a, of treatment to this fan base, the game of baseball. >> reporter: in the letter, fisher says he worked hard to get the howard terminal project completed, but came up short. local officials, including port of oakland commissioners

president, disagreed with fisher's narrative. he wrote on social media that the port and the city did everything to keep the team in oakland, including grants, infrastructure deals, and land use exemptions. johansen says the timing of the letter also couldn't have been worse. >> it's just a slap in the face when people are going through the worst possible time in their life with the a's leaving. >> reporter: this week, thousands of die hard a's fans will be going to their last ever a's games. so many have gone to the games their entire lives. bryan says the fans need to focus on their own personal connection to the team. his advice, blur all of this talk about the owner out and focus on soaking in the last final moments in the coliseum together. >> take in every pitch. take in every sight you can see, every smell you can smell. talk to as many people, ushers, and fans, and try to

stretch out the experience as much as possible. >> reporter: that's exactly what bryan says he'll be doing in the final three games. after that, he's not sure how his love for his team will translate when they're officially gone. >> all right, we'll have full coverage of the a's final home stand this week, and we want you to share your memories of the a's at the coliseum. just tag kpix. hot everywhere, even in san francisco. which a lot of people don't have ac. this is one of those days we really feel that. >> yes, the fans going all day long. it was the hottest day of 2024 so far. so yeah, we felt the heat today. it's going to stick around tomorrow. but it won't stick around much longer than that, so that's good news. it won't stay this hot forever. but it's the west coast of the united states dealing with this heat wave. we'll continue to see the heat dome building overhead. let's show you the temperatures across the desert southwest and over california.

hotter here than basically the rest of the country. we're feeling the heat. you can see where i'm standing on directly, this is the area of high pressure. let me put on the clouds to show you the lack of clouds cover we're seeing because of this area of high pressure. and we're going to continue to see this rotating around the west coast gradually making it further east. as it does so, it will allow a cold front to make its way across the west coast, and that will be weld. that's the reason that a big cool down arrives wednesday afternoon because the high pressure system, the heat dome, won't be influencing us for nearly as long. it will be a 24 to 48 hour heat wave. overnight tonight, it's not going to be very much cooler overnight. we're not getting much relief from the heat. overnight lows sitting in the mid to upper 60s inland. normally i tell you to grab a jacket stepping out at night. unless you live along the

coast, it's not really jacket weather other than half moon bay and even san francisco in the upper 50s very early tomorrow morning. but by tomorrow afternoon, once again we are going to be heating up. highs tomorrow afternoon going to be about 5 to 15 degrees above average. look at the darker, deeper more menacing looking reds developing. that's unfortunately the excessive heat returning. upper 90s inland. antioch, livermore, upper 90s. san francisco mid to upper 70s tomorrow. it's a gradual cool down arriving tomorrow, and it will only get cooler and cooler from there. look at wednesday afternoon's high temperatures. remember the deep, dark menacing reds we were seeing tomorrow? by wednesday not nearly as dark and deep because temperatures will be about 20 degrees cooler than today. temperatures wednesday afternoon in the low 80s. it's going to feel like such a

nice change of pace. it's going to feel more like sweater weather. san francisco in the mid-60s. even oakland that was dealing with the upper 80s to low 90s today, in the upper 60s by wednesday afternoon. that's only two days away. so don't worry if you thought today was too hot, if you don't have air-conditioning, the heat is not going to stick around. the clouds, though, are going to reemerge by wednesday as well. it's interesting to see how the clouds influence the temperatures because over the next 24 hours there's really not going to be too much cloud cover. by wednesday we expect the marine layer to return, the fog making its way through the golden gate and seeping into valley communities. more fog arrives thursday leading to cooler temperatures with quite a lot of changes on the way the next seven days. but it's our transition season. we expect this during the fall and this time of year, and we'll see quite a lot of those

transitions over the next seven days. upper 90s on tuesday. upper 70s by wednesday. look at how big that change is. then back to the upper 80s thursday as drier air makes its way in and moderates back out by the weekend. so it really depends on what day you want to get out what kind of weather you'll be dealing with. still quite a lot of heat tomorrow. more seasonable by wednesday, and moderating back out into the weekend. i'm looking forward to quite a lot of changes on the way, but i am also looking forward to a little taste of everything. sweater weather one day, and then go to the beach another day. >> thank you so much. some call it a once in a generation chance for a new ocean front park. critics say it's a traffic debacle in the making. we're talking about the future of san francisco's great highway that's now up to voters. wilson walker has more.

>> so i came here three years ago, so during covid, and they had just started opening up the highway. >> reporter: grace is a sunset resident, a park volunteer, and a supporter of the plan to permanently close this stretch of the great highway. >> it's just really great. there's so many people that come out, even if it's not sunny or really foggy, there's always a ton of people here on the weekends. >> the work we're beginning today over the next few months is a great start, but to have maxim pact, we need to pass proposition k. >> reporter: prop k would close the highway from slope to lincoln, and the way supporters describe this, it's not really much of a choice. >> the southern part of the great highway is already falling into the ocean due to coastal erosion. so that's the lemon. the lemonade is what we're trying to fix and create here by creating this park. >> i've lived here for 47 years. my first job was working at

play land at the beach back in 1963. >> reporter: joe has spent most of his life living on the great highway. he wants it to remain just that. >> just says open the great highway. >> reporter: like most opponents, the reason is this. >> mainly the traffic. you see all the cars out there. there isn't any other way to get from the richmond district south of here, or for that matter, to go north. so all that traffic has to go up either 19th avenue or sunset if it wanted to be on this side. >> are we going to be in a situation where people can just say let's close this street, let's close dublin or mission for whatever reason? we can't do these things just putting them on the ballot and have everybody vote. that's why we have supervisors. >> reporter: opponents say the measure sets a bad precedent for closing park adjacent streets. and there's the

frustration that what they feel is very much of a neighborhood issue has been handed to voters across san francisco. >> putting it on the city ballot is a way for our supervisor to dilute our intense voices. because we live there. we know the dynamics. >> it's a mixed bag. there are people against it, people who want it, and that's why it's on the ballot. this is not going away. this contentious issue. and we need everyone to have a say. >> reporter: the supervisor, who's been threatened with a recall over the issue, says improvements to streets like sunset avenue can accommodate the traffic changes. >> i've seen the plans for how they'll reroute traffic, and i just don't think there will be a huge impact to people driving through the area. >> reporter: how it would impact traffic or the amount of recreation the park could see on weekdays is a divide you can see in the windows

along the great highway or what may soon become the city's newest park. >> we'll to wait and see what happens. >> all a yes vote would do designate the highway as a park. straight ahead in sports, add another star 49er player to the injured list. the niners themselves, in itt. now is the time to bounce back. and it starts this week.

very common. he usually leaves at night around 10:00 according to the owners. they've been tracking him with a night camera, but he comes back to the crawl space in the morning. >> we're not at all afraid of him. he's just an old bear. he needed a place to make into a den. >> we get bears, coyotes. i had a rabbit shoot through the yard followed by a bob cat. >> sierra madre leaving. fish and wildlife hoping the bear leaves on his own. they plan to board up the crawl space to keep him from coming back. a lot of people have those boarded up to keep this from happening. >> he can do whatever he wants. >> my dog's name is junior, and i can only imagine if that bear met my dog. >> i do not encourage that
