with in addition to the pandemic so yeah get right to it john trouble in the weather center will start their jobs. >>yeah guys definitely was not a fun night for those of us that did lose power, especially for those of you that we're trying to cool off a little bit. temperatures today will likely again be shattering records areas like san francisco full 10 degrees above the former record reaching into the 90's for a few spots in the city says you look at the golden gate bridge right here crystal clear skies we are off to a warm start already with 60's 70's for most of our current temperatures did cool off enough last night to let it cool breeze into your house, but as we make our way through the day today we are going to be seeing temperatures just as hot as yesterday in some areas despite a one to 2 degree cool down and others think areas on the map still under that excessive heat warning and that's all the way through wednesday. so this is an extended round of heat ahead of us not really looking at much of a break of it these next few days even though tomorrow will be a couple of degrees cooler. we're still going to be hot to close out the weekend and then even

hotter yet again to start your next week skies are crystal clear overhead unlike yesterday where you saw cloud cover to start the morning. we're not seeing that this morning, it's just clear skies and temperatures are going to rise quickly you saw these numbers here just a second ago, one '07 in concord antioch in livermore each at one '06 for your highs. well, san jose in mountain view hayward freeman upper 90's, oakland, upper 80's, san francisco, mid 80's today will be another scorcher across the bay so find a place to get cool this afternoon. we're talking all about that still to come in the show back to you guys, thanks a lot john as we said in the middle of a heat wave to lose power, but that's what happened raise your hand if you still don't have it. >>you're not watching but still there are thousands of customers in the dark state officials declaring a stage 3 electrical emergency because the heat and the increased electricity demand. the emergency initiated rollout rolling up blackouts throughout the state. it's the

first time that the state has ordesed those power outages since 2011 has it been that long crawford's radar he is liv than 5,000 people lost power overnight. and there are concerns that more of us are going to lose it today reyna. >>darya good morning and we have not seen anything like the rolling power outages we saw yesterday in years and actually had a chance to talk to some residents out here and they tell me they came home and the power was out so they just went to bed, it was a real big inconvenience but like you mentioned we could see more outages and it wasn't just here in sandra fell where more than 5,000 people lost power, it was also in moran in napa and sam, a tale as well. foster city being one of the largest areas where we saw those outages now the reason is because it got too hot in the state's power grid, the not keep up with the demands so the california independent system operator declared a statewide stage 3 emergency that let pg and e have and put it in place rolling blackouts

throughout the bay area and statewide but a lot of people are wondering how do we know if it's going to happen to us so we reached out to pg and e for that answer take a listen. >>well ultimately it really is looking at the grid and identifying what segments of the grid we're going to we can take out of power in order to meet the necessary requirement. we do understand that there are certain parts of the bay are are not not just the bare certain parts of our service territory that are experiencing even more severe heat than others and we do try to take that took out where we can but ultimately it becomes tried to identify how we can take out the necessary amount of megawatts so we're being required to turn off customers as there at the request of the call for guys. >>all right so this is a very fluid story could see more outages today but we're going to be monitoring that for you at home in we'll let you know soon as that information becomes available for now reporting here sandra fell reyna harvey kwan for how you fare anna. last night just little caylee at the okay so i

each store head or sure about its part. yeah, you don't have air conditioning which a lot of people down or even a fan at home. >>there are several cooling centers that are open this weekend throughout the bay area we put together a list of their locations on our website kron 4 dot com because of the pandemic of course everyone is going to have to wear a mask, but don't forget to bring it and you'll need to maintain 6 feet distance from other people inside once you do get nca's the pandemic you know the store hours are different suing him 7 o'clock. >>they closed at to stay there later in the east bay that he knocked out power to about 1400 pg e customers in walnut creek and they had a what they call a momentary brief outage. it was a minute and then they should say they prepare for more of that kind of thing throughout the weekend i would like to minute my was like 5 hours 10 hours. >>we do expect that there can be moments, harry's and even sustained outages during this we see from time to time is when very high temperatures

during the day and our equipment gets very hot and then it doesn't cool down enough during the course of the sometimes or equipment doesn't have the chance to cool off and can overheat and that's when we sometimes see power outages. we really want our customers to be prepared for the possibility of power outages during the coming days. >>i was so happy i've never been so happy to see those roll in trucks to my neighbor because i do think it was what she was talking about i don't think those are rolling blackout my kids i think was a power outage. so you can stay tuned for that pg e wants you to know that whether or not. it's you know by accident demand or it's a shut off. they don't anticipate a need for the massive rolling blackouts that we had years ago in this heat wave james, let's keep our fingers crossed about that we'll take a quick break at 7 '07 coming up helping the homeless will tell you how local pastors working to protect them from this record breaking heat wave that we're experiencing.

been reported injured by this fire that's some good news. the cause is still under investigation and also in los angeles county is the ranch fire and it's burning right now in azusa and it's moving away from home. so at least it's heading in a direction it's not going to be threatening properties. residents were allowed to return home that's good news as well the fire broke out yesterday actually scorched about 2500 acres. it's still 0% containment but again last look at it had a burning away from populated areas. >>7.16 right now and we sure are hoping for a better day today. and now we're going to lose a couple degrees are like 10 because it would feel most impactful it or yesterday was volver honoring, i know guys you know unfortunately we're going to have to take a couple of degrees today because it's really not going to be a big difference. i'd love to subtract 1020 3040 degrees maybe. >>this is not going to happen what we did get rid of his some clouds overhead this is your sunrise view within the last hour over san francisco. it is crystal clear overhead

that from the white house. >>even though it could be critical to carrying out the november election. president trump made clear today that his refusal to give the post office more funding is a direct shot at democrats because they want 1 trillion dollars to go to their friends doing a bad job running certain cities and states that are doing very badly. the president argued he would unblock new funding for the u.s. postal service if democrats meet his demands in coronavirus legislation that i get to me they giving it to the american people and giving it i would i would certainly do that you the effort to sow doubt about mail in voting isn't just coming from the president his top cabinet officials are also issuing their own warnings. the idea of conducting. >>elections by wholesale mail in ballots is reckless huong it president barack obama accused the trump administration of attempting to suppress votes what we've never seen before is. >>a president say i'm going to

are clear than they were yesterday at this time, it's beautiful in crystal clear right now again get out enjoy this morning you saw this map just a second ago, but kind of hard to be looking at it, i know concord livermore antioch morgan hill parts of the north bay like napa novato all in the triple digits. mill valley hayward fremont san jose redwood city back to the 90's today, i've got more details about what to expect still ahead daria yeah as you said you might expect more power shut-offs it could happen and it happened yesterday. >>there were 10's of thousands of people who had no power the state declared a stage 3 electrical emergency. and that cleared the way for rolling blackouts statewide the last time the state ordered blackouts like this was 2001. but the bay area we remember him you know last year the year before because with hot windy weather that's when they have to do the power shutdowns. because of fire

danger so we know what it's like already and i was looking forward to this robbers raid, harvey is live in san mateo they're preparing for more power outages there i the peninsula and marine got hit the hardest last night. some of those just outages that just happened because of overheating right now. daria look you had families that were left hot and in the dark and it didn't happen to you i assure you you know someone who happened to because it happened to thousands of families i just talked to one man who was walking here. he said he'd left in the dark for hours out here. >>and he said in the middle of a pandemic if it could not get any worse so a lot of families inconvenient to talk to a mother she had her 2 kids on here they were walking. she said her and her little ones didn't have electricity for some time, but it came on out here around 9 is last night. now like you mentioned sandra fail napa san mateo we know the largest concentration of

outages happen in sam, a tale in the foster city area and you got too hot. we had a power grid overheated as a result of that we had to have those rolling blackouts and pg e shut them off in several different homes now you're probably wondering since we know it's going to happen today will it happen to me when we reached out to pg and e and here's what they told us. >>well ultimately it really is looking at the grid and identifying what segments of the grid we're going to we can take out of power in order to meet the necessary requirement. we do understand that there are certain parts of the bay are are not not just the bare certain parts of our service territory that are experiencing even more severe heat than others and we do try to take that took out where we can but ultimately it becomes tried to identify how we can take out the necessary amount of megawatts so we're being required to turn off customers as there at the request of the call for highs. >>so to summarize what he said we could see more blackouts today. >>and it could come at any

time in any place so we're going make sure that your updated with all the information you need to go to kron 4 dot com you can tune in to kron on lee. you have the app on your phone you can download that and stay up to date because we're going to be on top of this. throughout the weekend and into the week to let you know what you can expect for now reporting out here in sandra fell reyna harvey kron 4, 9 i can summarize what he said and what everybody else is saying you want to hear it. >>what lot while last. >>that's pretty much all last year. today. >>well utility officials say that too many people using too much power all the same time that is what put the strain on the grid, so they're suggesting you reduce power now again this is because we saw statewide. peaks for power usage to they say say you're conditioners maybe a little warmer than you typically would if you if you like it in the 60's are low 70's, maybe cranking up to 78 you can still be comfortable, you're not overly heated. but it helps with the grid. also cool

with fans if you have them close the drapes keep that sunshine out turn off any unnecessary lights or appliances and speaking of appliances don't use your major appliances between 03:10pm using before or after that time frame that between 3.10. that's when the grid is experiencing its maximum capacity. if you don't have air conditioning or a fan at home well then cooling centers have been opened up to help you. this weekend all throughout the bay area in fact we put a list together on our website at kron 4 dot com of their locations so check it out but remember to bring a mask and we're in a pandemic after all they're going says they have one on. if they're going to let you inside and once you're in you have to maintain 6 feet distance with everybody and you know what this reminds me i wanted history because they show up our offbeat or not got knocked a fan with a battery. >>you i didn't have a fan and yeah so i want to get something moment, a look on amazon just how in the next commercial. in the east bay that he knocked out power about 1400 pg e customers in walnut creek. they had what's

called a momentary brief outage and p g news saying prepare for more of that. throughout the weekend and throughout the heat wave. >>we do expect that there can be moments, harry's and even sustained outages during this we see from time to time is when very high temperatures during the day and our equipment gets very hot and then it doesn't cool down enough during the course of the sometimes or equipment doesn't have the chance to cool off and can overheat and that's when we sometimes see power outages. we really want our customers to be prepared for the possibility of power outages during the coming days. >>so seeing and i was like what's what that's what it was just too many people crank and there are a seasoned their fans. pg e said that in that case like she explained it was power got knocked out was in a

public safety shot off it wasn't a state initiated. but if we're going to we're going to see because the state is going to do what they have to do to lighten the load that's what they do. and if they do it they try to keep it down to as little as they can half hour hour. not many hours that's that's the goal that's the time that >>still ahead on the kron 4 morning news, speaking of the heat what about the homeless. >>we're going to talk about a local pastor who is working to try to protect them from this record breaking heat wave as well.

back at 8.15 before we get to our hot weather forecast. let's quickly update you on those 2 big fires that are burning down near l a. >>the first is the lake fire. that's when you see there it's burning in the angeles national forest between santa clarita and palmdale. down in la county it spread right now to about 17,000 acres containment is up at 12% right now. the fire has already burned several homes and fortunately since it broke out on wednesday and it's still threatening about 5400 other homes, nobody's been hurt and

the cause of fire still under investigation again that's one of 2 fires were tracking the other one is called the ranch fire. and here's video of that. it's burning in the area moving away from homes which is actually some good news. residents there were actually allowed to come back home. today the fire broke out yesterday and scorched about 2500 acres 0% containment but again it's burning away from those homes so at least that's some good news. >>i guess the pandemic the fires that the blackouts what's next john. here's more castor down that's for sure but that is not something we've got much in this forecast ahead of us. >>and unfortunately with so much dry tender out their fire danger is especially going to be a concern so that's just a reminder right there as you do is head outside to cool down make sure to do so safely. much clear this morning that it was yesterday morning, no cloud cover whatsoever up above no fog we could use some fog right now for sure just

sweeping through the bay making it cool unfortunately that's not the case. it is a very hot day on tap in crystal clear skies as this high pressure ridge really starts to build and now now this high-pressure ridge is actually be going to be in company by a bit of instability out to our west we've got the remnants of that tropical moisture still hovering immediately to our west and that's resulting in enough moisture in the atmosphere for tonight into tomorrow, the potential of a few isolated thunderstorm. that also ups fire danger as we know as for our heat, well, heat advisories in orange here closer to the coast for highs will be in the 90's and then in pink excessive heat warnings. these areas in excess of a 100 degrees not just yesterday and today but through much of the rest of the forecast at least through the middle of this upcoming week 70's and 80's for your highs in san francisco today and 60's 70's, 80's right along the coastline. there's pockets words cooler at the coast pockets where it will be warmer burlingame in millbrae

as daytime highs finally cool from the triple digits to the 90's. james tomboy our jobs and thank you. also in the news we have governor gavin newsom saying that when it comes to going back to school the state is going to be. >>following a safety first approach now he says that nearly 95% of california students will be starting the school year with distance learning some schools in fact already started that we know oakland opened up this week. the governor also added that the state has secured 5.3 billion dollars to try and maximize resources for students and teachers so that money is going to be used for purchasing personal protective equipment for staff also for access to technology and connectivity so we're talking about more laptops and chromebooks and wi-fi hot spots. the governor says that we have to ensure that teachers and students are prepared in every way for distance learning. we made this point that schools may be closed that made this point the past the class is still in session. >>that we are committed we are

accountable to continuing to ensure they're not only we're preparing our teachers to be great teachers in a very constrained and difficult environment preparing our students to be at their best. but that we are preparing. a broad strategy recognize that we still have a lot of gaps and a lot of in equities that need to be addressed. >>companies like apple and t mobile office depot staples at us and they've all set aside hundreds of thousands of dollars for california schools which school districts can get through the state. let's go to the east bay we have more details regarding a tentative distance-learning agreement between oakland unified and its teachers. so the daily school schedule as it turns out will be from 9 in the morning until 3.15 the afternoon there will be office hours with teachers available every week and it ensures that students will receive one on one support as needed it also this plan gives teachers time each week for professional

entirely the cover and hold it. and it turned out that 78% of those people when checking an mri that changes to their art that will not warm. >>well and are these or myocarditis in general is it treatable is it reversible. >>usually my heart i did was all over time i usually just need to rest for 3 to 6 months. the heart changes. reverse itself and walk in go back to a normal life. we really don't know what i'm my heart i'd is from covid looks like i think there are a lot of unknowns here and that's why lot of us are recommending caution. sometimes even just the cold virus through her mouth or night is on there's different levels of severity. harkin look dramatically at no more just look mildly abnormal. we're seeing levels of abnormality from covid we don't know what the potential

risk is all that data still coming in. but we're nervous or worried about it and so that's why we're telling. athletes and covid patients to use on the cautious. >>doctor lee went on to say that most college athletes won't feel a change if they develop this condition, but their heart will change what medical professionals are worried about is that an felt change could lead to sudden death. so they really need to take a closer look at it. >>thousands of bay area families were left without power yesterday and it could happen again today we just got

>>a 29 right now and i'm madly shopping on amazon for a fan that i can add the operate with batteries and john gets this great e-mail i just got to buy a charging blocking yeah power back up i don't you know, i own bill here one of the to for this to you darya. >>look at this they've got to figure out the fan and then scott the charger right there for fun and that's what i want course my was out for like 5 hours but we'll see hopefully that we should give us 5 yeah, some of that some good stuff right of yes, we are definitely figuring out all the ways to stay cool. every one of us across the bay area. no matter how close to the coast to our san francisco got up to 95 yesterday so no one is out of the woods as far as the heat goes and we're staying with that the next few days to today tomorrow on

through monday tuesday and wednesday all going to be hot. my recommendation is joy or enjoy your morning hours, 60's 70's right now though antioch and getting close to 80 degrees already and this afternoon our inland east bay back under an excessive heat warning in fact remaining that way through wednesday as daytime highs exceed a 100 degrees. heat advisories closer to the coast in orange skies. a lot clearer than they were yesterday we've switched out that cloud cover that came with the remnants of a tropical system we're still holding on to some of the muggy feel especially close to the coast though it is a slightly drier day ahead of us though and just as hot of a day as what we had yesterday 80's 90's triple digits that's where we're heading concord at one '07 livermore antioch morgan hill nevado and napa all triple digits for your heat today, i've got more details all still to come james all right, thank you john. well this week's hot weather may leave thousands more without power that's the worry state officials declared a stage 3 electrical emergency because of the heat which.

>>clears the way for statewide rolling blackouts if necessary. the last time we saw that was 19 years ago back in 2001. of course the bay area has seen it much more recently we've had a number of power shut-offs of last couple years because of heat and wind advisories, but prefers rain harvey is live in san mateo where they're preparing for the possibility of more outages this week all the rain i guess pg e says they're planning on any, but you never really planning on him until they happen. >>james you're absolutely right doesn't this sound familiar didn't we hear this yesterday i was telling people yesterday that pg e said we were going to any outages and then what happened. we had a lot of outages. >>a lot of people were without power overnight now again today they're saying they don't expect to do that they also say they don't expect. >>you don't have a flex alert in place but we're just going to have to wait and see and i think the best thing is to just be prepared so pg e says it's important to have your water to important to have your candles if you have a a

and it's going to stay that way guys fire dangers, you mention remains high. >>of course we've got the pandemic which means getting out there and cooling down just an extra challenge there just as you do get out there don't forget the mask as well as the water that's what is required of cooling centers a target or walmart and you need to get there anything to cool down. i know it's hard to do so right now golden gate bridge crystal clear not a cloud in the sky, no fog whatsoever and we could certainly use a little fog right 70's and 80's for your current temperatures with concord livermore hayward each 82, antioch 84, already warming up one of our cool spots but was it. >>the fop the positive spin is las vegas is going to be one for teens or there you go feel better you just have to think about where he could you're one 10 in fairfield doesn't sound as of extreme continues today for inland areas like fairfield our inland valleys. >>we are going to be looking at excessive heat warnings, not just today but extended

through wednesday, these areas well in excess of a 100 degrees for your daytime highs, lots of sunshine from the coast to our inland areas. and daytime highs today looking at 80's near the coastline 90's right along the bay redwood city at 97 99 in san jose today, triple digits further inland from there. temperatures likely to be breaking records again a lot like yesterday. so we'll be talking about that still to come daryn james all right then the big story is the power outages there were 10's of thousands of people. >>who had no power in the bay area and then across the state even more because the state declared a stage 3 electrical emergency because of the heat triggering rolling blackouts in the last time we saw rolling blackouts ordered by the state was in 2001. the ones that you remember though from last year there before those were the emergency power shut-offs because when it got hot and windy. they're worried about fire danger. so whatever it is it means you could lose power again covers a harvey is

live at 7 dale, where they were probably hardest hit. i know. they got hit marin county did too. and i know you did as well. >>daria you're right it could happen again, but pg and e a they just give us an update and they're saying they don't plan on any outages but we were saying that yesterday and a lot of people that i talked to yesterday. so they didn't plan for their power to be shut off and then it happened about 5,000 people a little over that hour here or on that curley sandra fell were without power yesterday and the counties experiencing that were napa and san mateo as well, we know the largest concentration out of foster city that area that you broke it all down it was too hot the system got away overloaded. and so they had to shut it down and they picked different areas and this happen across the state so not just here in the bay they were also experiencing this town in southern california like i mention of in talking to residents all morning who all have very different but similar experiences take a listen. basically was really

hot. >>and then all the sudden the lights went out. we did get a tax probably about an hour later as well that. 2530 minutes later stating that if we go it was gone for about and our and it went on. probably about 2 hours later to me it was just the heat all i have is a fan. i don't have air conditioning. but i'm one person now i'm not elderly. i don't have kids i wasn't going to make a meal. so i mean there's a lot of things that get disrupted if there's just a little information maybe people can plan for more. >>right so what we're doing is we're helping you plan kron four's going to keep you updated with the very latest information you can tune in to kron on our kron 4 dot com and again get all the latest updates on what's happening with these outages now a lot of people are trying to figure out how they can get prepared and get ready so coming up if you tune in at 9.30 i'll be talking a little more about that some tips from pg and e

for now reporting here in sandra fell reyna harvey kron 4 news. i'll tell you what i did when i just bought a little backup saying. >>so like at least i can plug in a fan and a computer. so there's a thanks a lot can sink in yeah, no kidding well utility officials say was obviously because too many people were using too much power all same time. >>and that's what strain the grid so they're suggesting maybe you do a couple tweaks to your daily routine to try and help out first thing you could do is that your a c thermostats to about 78 degrees or higher if you can stand it that would help out usually cool with fans and close the drapes keep that sunshine now maybe turn off any unnecessary lights or appliances and speaking of appliances try and use those major appliances like the dishwasher in the clothes dryer and washing all that stuff before 03:00pm or after 10:00pm if you use it and then middle time frame between 3.10 you're really going to strain the system. and if you don't have an a c or a fan at home

there are some cooling centers that are opening up throughout the bay area this weekend and we put together complete list of their locations on our website kron 4 dot com. she can always find that there just remember to bring your mask or in a pandemic and they won't let you win unless you have one so keep that with you once you're inside make sure you maintain six-feet that brings me to my other chip which was just go anywhere not even just a cooling center lee should go hang i runs those first of all my spacey. >>so driving to the store was good and then i stay in the store for like an hour. >>in the east bay that he got knocked out at the ice right of power got knocked out by the and the load on the grid. 1400 pg e customers in walnut creek lost their power. but just for a minute they call it a momentary brief outage. so that they could do these rolling things and that's the kind of thing that we might see continue to happen so it could be done by the state of or it could be done by an overload of the grid. >>we do expect that there can be moments, harry's and even sustained outages during this

we see from time to time is when very high temperatures during the day and our equipment gets very hot and then it doesn't cool down enough during the course of the sometimes or equipment doesn't have the chance to cool off and can overheat and that's when we sometimes see power outages. we really want our customers to be prepared for the possibility of power outages during the coming days. >>see so there's all kinds of ways you could lose your power of pg e says bottom line is number i talked about like having a backup battery regenerate or whatever you have a some kind of a plan for dealing with a heat wave like the one we're going to have because it's going to be with us for like a week. >>time now 9 '07. ahead on the kron 00:04am morning news, yeah, this heat how is it impacting the homeless population. i don't have no place to go to escape the people tell you how local pastor is helping them out.

and as we head to break another reminder a visual reminder of the kind of people going to be dealing with this afternoon, one '07 in concord one '04 in morgan hill. we'll be right back.

>>in the south the a team, a homeless advocates is now delivering help to the homeless in this heat wave in san jose homeless advocate pastor scott wagers and his crew have been going to each camp, delivering cold water

and food. they have you know the year they are cooling centers, but a lot of the homeless. either can't get their don't want to go there there's a limited capacity that they can accept. so they end up hunkering down in their camps, it's extra hot and in that case if they don't food and water they can get heat stroke. hydration kills then so many people that are susceptible and with the preconditions. >>the medications people take you can imagine how the combination in the covid-19 also people stacked in these tents in the heat, 2 or 3 together not practicing social distancing, not having mask so think about living out here. in the squalor in the middle of the summer with covid-19 being cut off and resources so when we come out here and do what we can to save lives. and they're going to continue. >>to try to do what they can as long as this heat wave is with us. >>well speaking of the again, here's a graphical example of what we're going to be talking about today tomorrow monday

tuesday wednesday you get the idea of an extended period of excessive heat, we'll be talking about that with john trouble in the and in fact

following couple wildfires in the southland let's get you updated on the lake fire first that's the video we have on the screen right now it's burning. >>in the angeles national forest right there between santa clarita and palmdale in la county it spread to more than 14,000 acres. so far 12% contained so they're making a

little progress on that front. the fire though has already burned several homes since it broke out on wednesday still threatening about 5400 others. no one's been the cause is still under investigation, keep you updated to make any progress on that front. meanwhile also down there in l a county is the ranch fire burning in it's moving away from homes now so at least that's one turn of fortune for the folks who live there. residents were actually allowed back into their homes today the fire broke out. yesterday it's burned about 2500 acres so far containment though it's still at just 0% not what they need is morally nobody needs more he really right now but we're going to get john yeah, more heat today, guys just as hot as yesterday in fact high fire danger. >>of course, we're still dealing with the pandemic just makes this heat. i got much worse, i know you're looking for a cool spot today temper on is going to be still up into the upper 80's if not 90's there in the marin headlands golden gate bridge will be a little cooler if you're heading out that

direction with a mask on and of course make sure to be mindful of that we may be dry in crystal clear across the bay area. there's actually a couple of thunderstorms firing up this morning along the central coast and we have that potential tomorrow here in the bay area as that moisture right offshore continues to interact with the hot and dry air that's building into the region of those thunderstorms up that fire danger, especially tonight into tomorrow so be mindful of that hot weather means that heat advisories are extended all the way through wednesday, we're not getting much relief all the way through the middle of this upcoming week, excessive heat warnings in pink for those areas that will be well above a 100 degrees for daytime highs and in orange heat advisories, we'll see daytime highs mostly in the 80's to 90's san francisco. well into the 80's today broke a record shattered a yesterday with a portion of the city getting up to 95 degrees 70's and 80's right along the coast with 80's and 90's along the bay shore today and even some triple digits woodside and saying carlos

great teachers in a very and straight and difficult environment preparing our students to be at their best. but that we are preparing a broad strategy recognize that we still have a lot of gaps and a lot of in equities that need to be addressed. >>actually a lot of companies have stepped forward to like apple and t mobile office depot staples at us and they've all set aside hundreds of thousands of devices for california schools which school districts can then get through the state. on the air in the east bay we have more details regarding the tentative distance-learning agreement between oakland unified and his teachers. what's been revealed so far is that the school schedule will be from 00:09am in the morning until 00:15pm in the afternoon so pretty typical day. office hours are going to be set aside for for teachers every week and that will ensure that students can get the one on one support they need. and it also gives teachers time each week for professional development and for preparation. the teachers association says they expect a vote on the agreement sometime next week we'll keep you
