we move toward saturday and sunday. so clearing out on the avenues, clearing out at half-moon bay, more sunshine. so, your forecast highs these are the current temperatures right now. and then highs tomorrow are going to be a little bit warmer. sunday the warmest day of the week. and certainly the warmest day on the weekend. we could see temperatures as they eluded to perhaps into the upper 80s and 90s. that's pretty warm considering we're coming up on fall. we're a couple of weeks away from the equinox. so days are going to start getting shorter faster. the fog increases tonight. it's going to be back just as it's been. it's less influential on our climate. we're seeing more rapid clearing like we did today. that's good news for our friends who were counting on september and october. when you live out in the avenues you really do count september, october, november to be those really nice days. and so far september hasn't

could a major loss in the bay area mean a loss for president obama. and we have new information and video that is just into our newsroom of that fatal plane crash that happened at the reno air races. i want to show you that video right now. this is home video taken from someone at the stands. what you can see here is essentially the aftermath of the crash. it looks like it happened relatively close to the grand stands and the new information that weaver just getting now from the reno fire chief. he is quoted as saying there are mass casualties that upwards of 60 people have been injured. 30 seriously, we also know that the pilot has died.

we're joined on the phone now by i believe someone who was actually at the that race by the name of peter. are you there on the phone? >> yes i am. >> can you tell me what you saw? >> well, basically we saw the planes as they were coming toward the crowd. this was a mustang called galloping ghost. he appeared to have some control issue then he pitched up violently. then there was like some radical movement. then it rolled over to the left and then basically went straight down and from our vantage point just appeared behind a tent. but we knew it was close to the stands. and it looks like it impacted the ramps very close to the bottom row of the stands. and there's also box seating down there, so that's probably where some of these injured were. >> peter we also had a quote from a person who was there saying that you know bits and

pieces just flew into the air. i'm assuming this plane was probably going several 100- miles-an-hour at the time. what happened immediately after the crash? >> immediately after the crash there was a will the of debris that flew up back into our view above the tent. so it probably, the degree that we saw going up probably went at least 75, 100 feet up in the air. and obviously there was debris that was scattering horizontally too. i'm sure that's what caused the injuries. >> what did you do immediately after the it happened. >> since i'm in the media, i'm not a photog but i headed as close as i could to get some shots. they weren't letting anybody close.

soon after they were asking for any medical persons who were in the crowd to come and help. >> we are hearing 30 people were injured seriously? >> no not really. tay basically created a barricade -- they basically created a barricade with emergency vehicles around the impact scene. so you really couldn't see even the video i shot basically is a video of emergency vehicles surrounding the site. so no i did not see any of the injured. >> okay well peter we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us. an eyewitness here to what happened out there at the reno airways. the shot of the plane is a p51 mustang. according to the information i have, a p51 mustang can go from 380 to 450 miles per hour. probably gives you some sense of how horrific that impact was. we're working to get more information on this information. but again 60 injured, 30 seriously according to the fire chief and unfortunately the

pilot of that plane killed. we're continuing to follow breaking news. interstate80 at gillman this is the eastbound direction is the scene of an accident late this afternoon. you can see emergency crews and their vehicles right in the middle lanes of interstate 80 eastbound. traffic is squeezing by essentially what we call the fast lane and slow lane. i just checked ktvu.com's traffic section. traffic is backed up to the maze. late this afternoon ktvu learned the house energy committee is ramping up its questioning about the now defunked solar company solyndra. ktvu's patti lee joins us now with the political fall out. >> reporter: we had a chance to analyze this stack of e-mails earlier today and they warned

the white house that solyndra which shut down in august could hurt the 2012 campaign. the building, the parking lot here are devoid of employees. the failure here is becoming a rallying point for republicans. once the poster child of president obama's clean energy program, solyndra is looking more like an achilles heel. >> anybody heard about this company named solyndra. >> reporter: bachmann hailed the failed company as a symbol of the failed administration. >> $550 million they never run a profit. they had an e-mail that said we think they're going to run out of money by september. >> reporter: we read through those just released white house e-mails. some warned the company might default. and that loaning money to the struggling company not once but twice could easily be portrayed as bad judgment or worse. >> i don't think we're talking

about a long term fall here. >> it's a little bit like second guessing monday morning quarterbacking when you say, they shouldn't have done it. i mean they should have. maybe nine times out of 10 this would have turned around. >> reporter: but republicans believe laws were broken and they are a pier to find out. >> it appears people in the organization consciously ignored the law. >> reporter: the congressman tells us that solyndra's top executives will be asked if they used undue influence to get those loans. and why they built a brand new building when they could have used many of the vacant warehouses sitting around in the state. the case against at&t and planned merger with team mobile
