they're right by all of this dry grass. we're mid-way through the fire season and grass like this will likely not get any drier so the potential for fire is great. it's the dog days of summer and it's supposed to get drier. >> this would go up in a half hour. this will be toast. >> reporter: calfire is also on alert given the high temperature could mean increased fire activity. this year's drought not helping. >> as the drier conditions come through like this weekend we're going to experience as everybody is. yeah, a little more attuned to what's going on and a little more active as far as paying attention to how the weather is going to affect the fire conditions. >> reporter: police stopped this weekend it's been a long and active fire season for

-- >> it's everyone young and old. >> reporter: has never been difficult. just see what a ktvu camera capture. this woman, that man and that person along with 13 others boarded through the back door without swiping the card at the reading. we're blurring their faces because some might have had legitimate paper passes. this guy at least had something in his hands. >> it's been going on for a while but the past year it's been out of control. >> reporter: the this munni customer says the problem is he rarely sees inspectors checking riders. >> it's unfair for people like me who pay $66 a month. >> do you have enough people checking those fares. >> we could always use more. >> reporter: the number of fare inspectors has dropped drastically. but the numbers are still up

since all door boarding became legal in 2012. we shared the results of ktvu two week investigation with munni head of enforcement. >> does it concern you that we did not bump into a single inspector. >> obviously it does. we have a study that shows almost 1,500 people board without paying. >> that's a big problem. >> it is. >> reporter: there may be a trade off for letting people get on for free. on average 65 people an hour are boarding munni. munii says it saves about one second per passenger with back door boarding. and that adds up. >> people are happy to be able to get to their destination quicker. because we don't have to stay at our stops for an extended period. >> reporter: ktvu finally did find those inspectors right outside of munni headquarters.

there might be a little patchy fog tomorrow morning. but for the most part, at this hour, this time of year it's unusual to have a fog pretty close. the clouds are not even on shore. that makes it a little tougher for the fog to form. oakland is blowing 15-mile an hour sustained winds. those winds have actually helped cool sea temperature. so they were really chilly out here. these temperatures yesterday and the day before in the upper 60s. we had mid-60s offshore here. the on shore winds have actually created more up swell. so seashore temperatures have cooled. temperatures are going to warm. daytime highs tomorrow are easily going to make it into the upper 90s and low 100s. overnight lows kind of mild. upper 50s low 60s. as you go through the bay area microclimates tomorrow, 80s downtown san francisco. that's hot in downtown san francisco. upper 80s and low 90s around the bay. fremont and berkeley and oakland. and then upper 90s and low 100s in the inland bay valleys.

was shot down over eastern ukraine last week. officials say it's likely some bodies still haven't been recovered. and witnesses say that the plane crash site has been abandoned. meantime british investigators have started their investigation of the two black box data recorders. police are trying to trace a loaded shotgun that was found by children hidden underneath a school building in santa rosa. cristina rendon tells us witnesses think it's a community gun that was stashed by gang members that live near by. >> reporter: children playing came upon a gun. the kids found this fully

loaded pistol shotgun and reported it. >> they did the right thing. and part of the it is i think they're used to this kind of stuff. they're used to gunshots in the area. >> reporter: this teacher was not surprised this shotgun was hiding. and a mother who did not want to be identified. say it is gang activities and shoot outs run rampant in their neighborhood. sergeant goldschlag says that he believes that it was stashed by gang members. >> the kids hear gunshots. they see drive byes it's part of being here in west ninth
