gusts around the altamont pass currently. and that is a pretty rapid wind. fortunately, it does seem like crews that got out there early. hopefully they can get containment there really quickly. but as dari is told you, this is affecting some of our areas just to the east of livermore itself to be mindful of this this morning and just a reminder that even with this cooler trend ahead of us fire danger at this point forward is really just a constant for us now. radar does show dry skies today that lightning and thunder we had yesterday is out of the region. good news right there for any potential fire starts very, very thick marine layer up and down the coastline of the peninsula into the bay itself. and we do have that transport of ocean cool there into the bay. keeping a lot of spots include brent, what you're at 83 degrees right now. while livermore only at 61, you cross the altamont and you've got very, very fast temperature gradient as you get over towards the central valley. and that is also resulting in some strong winds out that way later on today. te

we'll start with weather conditions around the new fire burning in the altamont pass. temperatures and humidity levels aren't a major problem, not that warm and not all that dry, humidity levels well over 50%, but the winds are gusty, gusting up to 35 miles an hour and you saw the effect that wind is having on the smoke plume, carrying it far downstream. we'll see hotter conditions taking over the next couple days. let's look at the advisories and warnings in effect and most inland parts of the bay area under a heat advisory tomorrow, wednesday and thursday. for solano county it's an excessive heat warning and that is more severe. that's where heat exhaustion, even heatstroke becomes much more likely. temperatures likely to exceed 100 degrees for much of solano county. for the rest of the region heat advisory just means folks sensitive to the heat, may have issues during the hottest part of the day, especially tomorrow and wednesday when temperatures run about 15 degrees above average, inland temperatures into the 90s, some of the hottest spots around 100 degrees. we'l

a lot of folks held up back in the altamont pass. good morning. i'm silvana henao here at cnbc headquarters. stocks are set to open slightly higher today. and that's because investors are gearing up for this morning's monthly jobs report, which is just about 15 minutes away. now, all three of the major averages are on pace for a winning week. now, as far as the jobs report goes, economists surveyed expect the bureau of labor statistics to report that the u.s. economy added 190,000 more jobs on the month, which would be a slight step up from that 175,000 gain in april. shares of gamestop shooting higher in yesterday's session after meme stock leader roaring kitty scheduled a live stream on youtube, which would be his first one in almost four years. gamestop popped more than 47% higher to close at 4655 per share. the stock actually hit a high of 4750 during the session, in which trading was briefly halted for volatility. the stock has more than doubled so far this week, and retail giant tjx that's the parent of tj maxx, marshalls and homegoods, said

but you know where that altamont pass is where the fire is. it is gusting pretty strong there in the 30 mile per hour range. so let's get a look at the temperatures tonight. overnight. lows are pretty mild. we're seeing 50's and 60's. you wake up to the clouds tomorrow and then we will be warming up tomorrow. we won't be as warm as we will be getting, but we will see 70's now towards the san joaquin. you could see some 80's. that's what we saw today. mid to upper 80's. here's that 7 day outlook. we can really see that heat starting tuesday where our inland communities will be in the 90's. you can even see wednesday close to triple digit heat. that will be the first of the season. so yes, we're getting is how warm months. you know, we've been through this before and the winds. it's all about the winds tonight. so hopefully it's you know, that firefighters can catch a break. yeah, hopefully they can. we know that we heard from cal fire earlier. they were saying it's going to be. >> maybe daylight tomorrow that they really get a good estimate. ye

gusty winds fanning a brushfire just east of the altamont pass. evacuations underway for parts of tracey. we're going to talk live with the battalion chief on the front line about the conditions of line about the conditions of this firef in 10 years, lisa schneider will have an amazing second act. thanks to career reskilling courses from aarp. to help make sure her income lives as long as she does. the younger you are, the more you need aarp. why choose a sleep number smart bed? can i make my side softer? to help make sure her income lives as long as she does. i like my side firmer. sleep number does that. save 50% on the sleep number limited edition smart bed. plus 0% interest for 48 months when you add an adjustable base. shop now at sleepnumber.com good morning. it is sunday, june 2nd. it's 729 and that is a live look at the city of san jose. we have a lot going on this morning and we're going to get right to it. thanks for joining us. i'm chris chmura sitting in for kira klapper. let's get right to cynthia who's been watching the winds with a

further contain meant of that fire there along the altamont pass. getting a look outside at where winds will be later on today. we do see wind gusts picking up from the west and pushing some ocean cool there on in towards the evening. and that will result in winds picking up a little bit later on high as 25 miles per hour around the altamont pass. but as for now, things are calm as crews looked like they are getting the upper hand. so we're clear skies for most of the bay little cloud cover towards the coastline. temperatures wasting no time climbing livermore. you're at 74. while brentwood and fairfield and vacaville all up into the 80's already vacaville at eighty-four degrees. you'll be or how to spot later today. getting up to 99 degrees so close to the triple digits, inland areas right next to 100 degrees while bayshore cities in the 80's. some 60's and 70's at the coast. back to you. >> thanks a lot, john. it's 10 33 and san jose's school district is facing some harsh criticism this morning. it's coming from a new report by the santa clara cou

here on the altamont pass, just east of the north flynn road exit. fire is out. as i mentioned, it's 75% contained, and cal fire will monitor this site over the next 48 hours to make sure nothing flares back up. they don't know what caused this fire, but the battalion chief says that typically around this time of day, there can be a spark from a vehicle, a driving by that's dragging a chain or from a malfunctioning car or big rig. sometimes a catalytic converter can throw off a spark. this is already, as you mentioned, a busy wildfire season for this part of the bay area. there was that 14,000 acre corral fire in nearby tracey a week, and a half ago, a 44 acre wildfire this past saturday on the western edge of the altamont and in this smaller wildfire this morning, the last couple of seasons over in this general area, we haven't had really many starts, so we haven't had as many fires as we normally do this year with the rain, we've had the last two years, no fires or very little fires. last year, more rain this year. the fuels are prime for a very hot, fast, begi

so at last check, i did see the altamont pass, which is north of the crowd. fire was at 44 gusting at 44 miles per around 10 o'clock hour. and then around 2 pm. that's right around when the fire broke out. so has been some strong winds that we are in between a very strong, a pressure gradient between high pressure, low pressure. so if you are or where you are in the bay area, it was pretty breezy. that's pretty much why you felt that way. and here's the future. wind gusts around midnight. 23 miles per hour expected over at livermore and east of livermore even higher. so still strong winds overnight. now around the 07:00am close to 08:00am. looks like the winds calm down just a bit with the exception of the coast will still be in the 20's. but i our concern, of course, is that the firefighters and, you know, dealing with the flames and all that dry brush out there that area a sunday afternoon and evening, we could see another pop in the winds as well, especially around santa rosa, close to 30 miles per hour and as well. so the higher peaks we normally see. let

this is actually a bit of good news around livermore, although up around the altamont pass where that grass fire is currently burning around 10 miles per hour. winds at the moment. winds do pick up later on today. now this is good news for us because it actually cools us off into the evening, offering some relief, maybe not good news if that fire is still burning around the altamont pass, though, the fact that the 2nd half of the day will start to get a bit breezier 60's to 70's for your daytime highs in the city today as well as along the coastline and then 80's to 90's for most of the rest of us. burlingame, 84 redwood city, 88 san jose. today you'll be at 92 degrees livermore as well as conquered in pittsburgh, getting close to the triple digits at 97 degrees. each oakland, you'll be right up to 80 well closer to triple digits. even then the rest of the bay in vacaville at 99 degrees today. tomorrow's temperatures wil still be warm but not as warm as today. low 90's at the warmest for your wednesday. by thursday, we return to averages and will stay that way in the 70's to 80's jame

so altamont right now is sustained at 30 miles an hour. we've got gusts will actually sustained at 31 miles an hour temperature 69 degrees at the altamont pass. humidity is pretty high right now. so this is helpful for fires. but one of the things we're seeing is the fuel moistures in these dry because you're not seeing oaks and trees. you're seeing dry brush right. so the fuel moistures are extremely low. so this is the kind of fire you expect this time of year. you're not going to see oak trees going up in pine trees. there's too much fuel moisture in those at this hour or at this time of the year. but in the grasses they're completely dried out. so keep an eye on it. but i got to tell you, they're going to have their hands full with this fire because it's essentially in the same area. it's foggy at the coast right now, but we're going into a heat advisory for tomorrow. we'll talk about that when i get back, but a heat advisory lasts a couple of days, and really, what i think the big story is going to be is that central valley, the extre

look at where the corral fire was, right past the altamont pass. the hills act like a little gap and that can speed the wind up. this is a notoriously windy part of the bay. just to give you an idea of how it is different from where they were battling the corral fire and where you likely live, look at the wind right now, look at that band of orange working its way over 580, squeezing through the altamont pass. it gets very windy out here and it indicates where the fire happened, just west of tracy and east of the lawrence livermore lab. all this territory out here, they will still have gusty winds. taking a quick look ahead, enjoy today, there is a significant warm-up about to take place. when we get together for the complete forecast, we will spend that entire visit focused on the intense increase in the heat that takes place tomorrow. today is easy. don't expect much change today but many of us will be 15 to 20 degrees warmer tomorrow. we will start talking about it getting just downright hot. we have heat advisories for many of us, we will have

altamonte pass is known as a windy place, anyways. what we were experiencing last night was much worse than out here. we were looking at sustained winds in the high 30s, low 30s, gusting into the 60s. making it difficult to even stand, just stand there, let alone engage in trying to fight a fire. firefighters were met with those conditions, the fire was just out running them. >> reporter: in fact, firefighters suffered burn injuries when the erratic winds changed directions pushing the flames back at them. >> watching the grass burn like that was impressive. it sounds that you typically only hear in brush and timber. it was very rapidly moving. >> reporter: aldo ofo owns property in the tracy severs that he allowed firefighters to use as a base camp. about five miles from highway 580 which they were hoping would act as a natural firebreak. >> we start checking that it is across 580 and yeah, we just pray for the best at that ., right? so we do get some sort of worried but most of it is just praying that nothing would jump on this side

going out through -- 580 through livermore through altamont pass. that's a concern for the next several months. it's no windier there than on a typical day. we're getting some help. this could have been a lot worse, because you could have been through an extreme heat period, and you could have also had stronger winds today. instead, we've got onshore winds which are helping to cool us down. and temperatures which are pretty well behaved out there. what happened to last week's heat? done with it for now, but it is coming back. how the number are going to go up again by tuesday. more heat in the fore kashgs see you with that in just a few minutes, guys. >>> a handful of anti-war activists gathered for a demonstration outside the ferry building in san francisco today. they say israel has disregarded human rights. there was extra security at the white house today as protesters rallied for an end to the war in gaza. they want president biden to stop sending aid to israel. president biden has been in france commemorating the 80th anniversary of d-day. >>>

how about zooming in on the area as you work your way into the altamont pass?rth flynn blocking at least that right lane >>> call it a rebirth. call it a revival. these are the ballers. .a new pro baseball team. built by oakland. >> all right, ballers, let's go. >> built for oakland. >> we are getting you excited for another friday home game. the first one really in the history of the ballers. so let's take a live look at raimondi park in oakland. where the ballers will return tonight for their fourth game at home. first pitch against the yolo high wheelers is set for 6:30 and remember, if you cannot make it to the game, you can watch it on our sister station, pix+ 44 cable 12. and gianna, let's talk a little bit about some of the great stories that have been coming from the ballers' clubhouse in that first week that has been happening over at raimondi. >> i love this. and matt lively shows us there's a trio on this roster that are all childhood friends. >> we've been playing baseball together since we were like 14 years old. it goes before college to even high

so you see the wind speeds there, still strong through the altamont pass. patchy low clouds for the morning with 50s to start by around midday. we begin to see those 60s and 70s and for now the temperatures are comfortable. we're talking mid 70s around san jose, 60s closer to san francisco, low 70s into oakland, livermore up towards contra costa county and solano county, 70s and 80s. but some big changes coming up once we get past monday. look at this mendocino county. a slight chance of some rain showers, but behind that weather system, high pressure starts to build in the strongest high pressure system we've seen in a while, leading to the hottest temperatures of the year. right where the fire is burning tonight from tuesday through thursday through solano county as well. an excessive heat watch. so notice monday temperatures still pretty comfortable. we've got 70s and 80s, but by tuesday all of this orange and the heat risk index moderate risk of heat issues around the bay area once again into the 90s. we're seeing that area south of san jose near 100 de

. >> at altamont pass has now been 100% contain. firefighters use ground crews to gain the upper hand. the fire broke out around noon. eastbound lanes on i-80 are now back open following a car fire on the bay bridge off-ramp that caused some major delays. it happened around 09:30pm, tonight as you can see in this video, the car was all small during this was after firefighters put out the flames. let's take a live look outside to the bay bridge. officials are telling drivers to expect delays. yeah, as they continue, that cleanup will keep you updated on the closure on air. and of course online. let's switch gears and talk about the weather right now. kron four's gayle ong is standing by with all the details for you. yes, much cooler this weekend and we were during week. we have that heat wave where temperatures reached triple digits. so >> we're down to the low 80's inland. 20 degrees cooler. so here's a live picture, quite tower. that's all you can see here. we do have some cloudy skies out there. temperatures sitting in the mid 50'

windy conditions near the altamont pass have kept fire crews busy in recent days. ktvu allie rasmus is live in studio to explain what crews are preparing for. >> ali well, the warning gasia is for everyone to stay alert when it's warm, dry and windy this time of year. the potential for fire danger is high. >> the midweek heat could be a concern. we're always telling people make smart choices. by this time, probably everybody knows what those are. don't use your power tools in the heat of the day. use them in the morning before it really gets hot. obviously don't throw a lit cigaret ever out your window. >> cal fire faced some challenging conditions over the last few days. yesterday, a grass fire broke out near the altamont pass near livermore late yesterday afternoon. the patterson fire burned about 100 acres. a quick response from cal fire, though, kept it from spreading. at last check, it was 75% contained. but this fire happened just after the more destructive corral fire in that same area of tracy and san joaquin county. east alameda county that fire grew to mo

and at the altamont pass, the winds are 29mph.again for the afternoon today. in fact, the futurecast model does a good job of showing you what i'm talking about here. notice the wide shade of yellow and then right there through 580 and through the altamont pass heading towards tracy. even that shade of orange. so winds are expected to pick up perhaps gusts to about 40mph, but nothing like what they were dealing with yesterday. and the temperatures are expected to remain fairly mild. relative humidity not too bad and the direction of the wind is good for the bay area in the sense that we are not expecting that smoke to drift in our direction for today. back to you. >> okay. thank you rosemary. well, as wildfire season ramps up, stick with ktvu for all of your coverage needs. we do stream around the clock on fox local, and you can also get the latest information on our website and throughout mornings on two other news now at 938, uc berkeley police searching for the arsonist who intentionally set fire to a patch of grass outside a c

altamont pass is notorious for this. and as the wind is rushing in to the bay and the delta it whips around and picks up in intensity. for that part of the most interior regions of the bay and we are even talking more central valley than bay, but that is where the wind is trying to squeeze through the worst. they have a lot more containment on that fire and it is doubtful that this fire will go back to anything like its former self because of the containment lines they've got on it. the big issue in the weather is the warm-up coming our way. we can look at it into, ways -- in two ways. the warm-up is focused on tuesday and wednesday and will be a lot noticeably higher than these numbers. southie is still in the low to mid 70s and livermore, mid to upper 70s for daytime highs. you can see the rest of the bay with temperatures very similar to yesterday. tomorrow, noticeably hotter and we will take a look at some of the numbers, look at the one up here in the front. san francisco will be near 80. we will take a look at ever

north bay hills, diablo range, altamont pass areas again. we see these hot days and warm nights set up, that will be concern for elevated fire danger again early in the week. now, we talked about the different types of clouds. we're likely to wake up to tomorrow morning. notice the thunderstorms off to the east. it's this band of high clouds which came in around sunset tonight. that's how we're going to wake up tomorrow morning. not just the low clouds around the inner bay, but those high clouds as well. moving forward late morning to the afternoon, skies clear a bit. but look at this on the coast. the fog fills back in once again, ensuring a cool finish to the weekend there for san francisco and the coast as we wake up to 50s to start tomorrow morning, right around midday, probably the most sun we'll see, at least for the coast, will be right there around lunchtime. numbers staying in the low to mid 60s near san francisco. upper 60s in oakland, 75 in san jose. and look at those east bay valley temperatures tomorrow. nice and comfortable to

slow the morning commute along the >> altamont pass. you see firefighters working to douse hot spots. this effected lanes of eastbound 5.80, along the altamont pass their kron four's. philippe djegal reports. >> cal fire's hand crew digging fire lines to prevent the flames from spreading into the hillsides. the state agency, alameda county and livermore pleasanton fire departments also responded to the blaze along the altamont pass. secret joe would just map to somebody like around it. we map that 23 acres but cal fire battalion chief bryan goff says it could have been a lot worse as the heat advisory went into effect in the area. at about the same time the fire was contained all but one eastbound lane on be shut down for more than an hour before the chp gradually started reopening lanes. once forward, progress was stopped just east of the north flynn road exit in livermore. good thing is right the ranchers are starting to throw more cattle in the area. so there's more grazing land. the normal. >> we've a lot of rain last couple years.

that is that kind of wind tunnel out of the altamont pass, right there down on the west side of san joaquin county. gusty conditions, unlike today, are expected to last through the day on monday. so it's good news that they did get to boost to the containment lines today. more challenging conditions ahead. first, a little more wind on monday, then eventually more heat and dry weather as we head towards tuesday. notice the fire danger index for tomorrow. onshore wind and a lot of cloud cover things. not looking too bad, but watch what happens tuesday. elevated fire danger, especially across those inland hills near where the corral fire is burning as we see a pivot to our temperatures as well, the heat risk index by tuesday vaults into the moderate to major category for the bay area. widespread 90s away from the bay and out towards solano county. you're looking at temperatures climbing into the 100 degree range. all of this starting tuesday last through thursday. coming up, we'll talk about when the peak temperatures arrive and more on that wildfire smoke, which continues to move around the b

all the way into the altamont pass area.ave got all the supercommuters traveling out of tracy getting through there to at least north flynn and now you have got this backup because of this accident. that's going to connect with those delays and probably cause a pretty big problem for anyone commuting say towards the dublin interchange. but only one lane is available and unfortunately, again, one person did die so there's an investigation under way right now. this is going to take some time to clear out of lanes. use alternate routes in the meantime. potentially a.c.e. rail could be the option if you have that for your commute through here. if not, things might be a little bit backed up or maybe you can wait a little bit before you hit the roadways kind of tough to find alternate routes through the altamont pass area. bay bridge toll plaza, that's getting backed up too for traffic heading into san francisco. >>> time right now 6:22. this is not something you see every day. a wedding. yeah, this happened at the ballpark. the h

the altamont pass around 36 mile per hour winds.y up there in the vicinity of that blaze. so today is going to be a cooler one. that's a plus for firefighting efforts. crews are going to get the upper hand on the fire today in advance of what is going to be such hot days tomorrow today. cool. and a little cloudy tomorrow starts or trend of sunny dry and scorching hot weather. in fact, this cool ocean breeze that we have today was going to get almost completely cut off tomorrow as a northerly dry breeze kicks in across the bay area. that means inland areas tomorrow as much as 25 degrees warmer that today's about to be we are seeing heat advisories and that or in shoe across the day in solano county as well as the central valley and excessive heat warning. all of these taking effect tomorrow morning at 08:00am and lasting through friday. so several days of heat, the very hottest days being tuesday and wednesday. today's daytime highs are 60's at the coast. and in francisco and then 70's for most of the rest of us. very pleasant feelin

near altamont pass. according to cal fire firefighters say 15 acres have burned so far. this is right by north midway road in the altamont, alameda county, though not san joaquin, but it's not too far from tracee, so you can see very smoky right there. we're going to continue to monitor this situation. but again, this is another fire that just broke out a short while ago near patterson pass road and north midway road in the altamont pass. so we'll continue to follow it. we'll keep it eye on it throughout the newscast. we've got a lot more news ahead. pro-palestinian protesters cram into the lobby of the israeli consulate in san francisco. the message they tried sending and how it impacted some people is far away. as utah and the heat it's on the way and it's going to get hot for a lot of the bay area. i've got more details on these excessive heat wates,ch organizers say it's a continuing effort to demand a permanent cease fire in the continuing war between israel and hamas. here's nbc bay area's sergio quintana in san francisco. three 3000 from inside the lobby of 456 mo

but altamont pass road is not for the rookies. so just keep that in mind as we look at the rest of the bay, a smooth flow of traffic coming down through the south bay north 101 would typically pick up the volume a bit. we are seeing a little bit of slowing. another 20 minutes is when we'll usually monday through thursday see more slowing around that arch, but we'll see how that shapes up today. and over here, continued activity of that fire underneath the car. nobody inside that vehicle. but it is south 101 around rengstorff. so it could start to be a distraction as the volume may start to build a bit. we'll track it back to you. all right. mike, thanks. coming up next on today in the bay nbc bay area responds, we're breaking out the balloons because we're on a roll getting companies to break out their checkbooks to make things right with dissatisfied customers like you. i'm consumer investigator chris chmura, nbc, bay area responds and telemundo 48 respond next on today in the bay [ navigation ] stay straight for the next 200 mil

hey, sal, what's happening in the altamont pass?lking about. and, you know, there, authorities responded with a heavy fire response there, because the car fire could lead to another grass fire. they got it under control, but they still have kind of a bigger backup on 580 approaching corral hollow, the area where we had the grass fire a few days ago, and then 205 at mountain house. we had a crash there. so if you know someone who's coming in from tracy or the central valley, they may be delayed coming into livermore and pleasanton, live. look from our triple a traffic camera at the macarthur maze. that looks pretty good, but there's already a backup here at the bay bridge. toll a little early for this backup here. the metering lights have been gone on, so just people are out there early this morning trying to get into san francisco. i don't see anything that's causing too much concern, but a lot of people are already out there. 549 let's bring steve back in with today's weather south. >> thank you sir. well, yesterday was pretty much

look at all the slow traffic on the altamont pass. slowing in livermore. 880 is a little bit slow. san mateo bridge has improved a little bit. we had a stalled truck out there for a while, and then we had something else. but now things seem to be moving better and the bay bridge is still backed up way to the maze. that's because there is a bunch of slow traffic on the actual bridge. it's 749. let's bring steve back in with today's weather. >> all right, sal, thank you. we'll take a look at the visible satellite. and there's a lot of fog out there. there's been fog from crescent city all the way to san diego. national weather service in san diego today issued a statement of graphic on why it's been so foggy in southern california for may and also june. they've had more than us. we have our fair share today, that's for sure. looks like it's beginning to retreat, though. made it out to livermore on the altamont pass. that's a heck of a push. also up to napa valley santa rosa, 101. you can see we're locations. looks like it's retreating n

the greenville fire at altamont pass is now burned. 44 acres and 75% contained. firefighters are using ground crews to gain the upper hand. the fire broke out today around noon. now to our 4 zone forecast as we take a live look at the bay bridge. traffic is backed up at this hour. heading eastbound due to a car fire. we're trying to get some more information for you, but it does look like as you can see, the brake lights. there is certainly some traffic gillum's kron four's gayle ong. now joining us to look at our forecast high count. hello to reset. we have some winds out there. >> and i have a view here from the embarcadero in san francisco. you see the flag blowing in the wind. so the winds will be gusting tonight, particularly in the east bay hills. and that will be cooling things down. so current temperatures right now, we're in the 50's onset downtown san francisco, low 60's by half moon bay. notice that cloud cover by the coast and the east bay shoreline as well as the valleys in livermore. so 70 sevens, quite warm as you make your way inland during this 1

but east of livermore, you know, the higher elevation by the altamonte. it was gusting at 30 miles per hour. so still some wind gusts near the carmel fire. san jose, 7 miles per hour right now are jack is he's reporting on that fire. and san jose was dealing with wind speeds and that 20 miles per hour range. so it was a breezy day we can expect another breezy day tomorrow. now, yesterday we were particularly in between a strong a pressure gradient between sfo in sacramento. and what that does is cause some really strong ferocious wind. so that's what yesterday in particular, we saw some strongest, but we will remain breezy tomorrow as you can see readings as they take you through monday. this is 07:30am. you can see readings are in the 20's, even higher in the peaks like calistoga atlas. speaking to 25 miles per hour range monday morning. in the late morning, it looks like we'll still be in the 20's and teens around the region 20 miles per hour over in livermore on monday around 4.30. so that's that afternoon kick and the winds, it's usually that onshore

altamont pass pretty backed up. you see drive times if you're traveling from tracy towards the bay. here take about 40 minutes to make it into dublin. i'm saying for street is a good alternate 40. if you're trying hop off the altamont pass and navigate around that, maybe can hop 84 and then down to the 6, 8, our other bridges and highways not seen major issues. that's the good news. 13 minutes on the bay bridge, san mateo bridge around 16 rich's 7 just short of 14 and the golden gate bridge. 37 of the tolls. 28 minutes story. james, back to you. all right. we're going continue know their team coverage on that fatal crash that happened westbound 5.80, livermore. yeah. let's get to the scene right now. kron four's will tran following the progress of clearing it will. what do you see? >> right now they still have not open up additional lanes. we thought that they would open up 3 lanes, but it is still 2 lanes going by this accident scene. this is just west of north livermore avenue. look at that. chp officers are still on the scene. they are hoping to be out of here within the next hou

but check out altamonte right now. just hit 99 degrees in another gauge in livermore is up to 99 as well. so obviously the heat is on. that makes things difficult for firefighters. i do expect the breeze to pick up as we get throughout the afternoon, seeing already some of this start to happen along the coast. and in san francisco, we could see worried about 21 miles per hour. so that is a little bit of a concern as we roll through our evening. now, this is the difference in temperatures between this time yesterday. and right now we are up across the board. but boy, we are really a lot warmer in a spot like oakland where it is 16 degrees warmer than it was this time yesterday, 15 in santa rosa. so we are under heat advisory. that does last through 8 o'clock tonight for most of us here in solano and yolo counties. you actually keep going into it tomorrow. and you can see there's a good portion of the bay even around the bay itself around san pablo bay, right to the water. there you are in it as are the north bay hills a

that one site at altamont, 44 miles an hour. the one site near interstate 205 is the winds are gusting to 35, and they're actually happens to be one site, one weather location here, right around the fire zone. currently it's 71 degrees, winds out of the west at 18 miles an hour. as we put this forecast model into motion, you can see the winds will not completely go away. they could actually back off a bit though into tomorrow morning. but it will not be a calm wind just heading in the right direction. and then throughout the day on sunday we will continue to have a pretty strong westerly breeze in place so the winds will not back off. it's already been such a such a busy day for the fire crews and unfortunately the winds will not help out, but they will back off somewhat as we move into sunday morning. >> going to be a long night for firefighters as they try to get a handle on this fire. mark. thank you. just a reminder, if you're just joining us, this fire burning more than 9000 acres, you can find the latest information as it

but once you head up 5.80, into the altamont pass, altamonte itself is looking at 36 mile per hour winds is straight to our north, keeping his cool for just one more day today. tomorrow, going to be a drastic change from the low 80's at the very warm us today to the triple digits tomorrow for some of our for this inland spots, including san joaquin county, where the crew out fires burning temperatures right now are cool with that cool sea breeze pushing in from the west. this is going to moderate daytime highs today. tomorrow is when we see our heat advisories and excessive heat warnings kicking into gear starting tomorrow at 08:00am through friday. and that applies to most of the bay area. so anticipating a very hot rest of the week after today. if you do want to get outside, enjoy some relatively cool conditions. absolutely. today is a wonderful day for all of it. most of us are going to be 60's to 70's with only a couple of us barely reaching into the low 80's south bay temperatures, mid 70's for most of even spots like livermore. only at 74 degrees today. heyward oakland, san leandro

we've got some hotspots coming into the altamont pass this morning. westbound 580 there and south 880, just a pocket of slowing south of 92. reed? >>> all right, let's talk about hotspots in the weather as the heat bears down on all of us fire season is our reality. and there are repercussions to talk about this morning. look at this fire drop. the water drop from a helicopter. this was along the road in san jose. a fire jumped the brush and burned a couple of outbuildings and it happened yesterday afternoon. in fact, this one spread to a two alarm fire ending with one person having to go to the hospital. that was in san jose. let's jump up to the north bay now. same situation up there. multiple brush fires broke out near petaluma. right there at the road's edge. the fires torched a lot of locations along old adobe reed and firefighters got out there and they quickly knocked the flames down. they used air and ground resources and luckily, we're glad to tell you this morning, no structures were damaged in this one. and we learned a lot because crews sa

altamont pass at the top right there around 40 miles per hour. still looking at some pretty strong winds at those higher elevations. the good news is this is cool. coastal air that's sweeping in along with the cold front and that means not going to be a scorching hot afternoon and actually pretty good weather for the firefight today. winds are all from the west. that's cool. coastal areas i mentioned in livermore, you're only at 64 degrees right now. tomorrow's daytime highs in the same location going to be well up into the 90's, if not triple digits, hence some heat advisories and excessive heat warnings just around the corner for all of our inland areas for the bay. if you need to get outside, take care of some yard work. today absolutely the day to do so. 60's and 70's sounds so much nicer than the 90's and even triple digits. we have tomorrow, right? all right, john, thank you everybody traveling, we've been keeping a close eye on our bridges in all of our drive times. >> not been as bad as we've seen them, especially in the 8 o'clock hour ar

we have the backup blending in with the traffic coming out of the altamont pass. those slow speeds out of the past. we're under 30mph. but as you approach the one lane, that's open for west 580 just past north livermore, you're under ten miles per hour. we'll track the progress coming up. 645 right now, the sale of oakland share of the coliseum complex is now official. council members have approved selling the city's 50% stake to the african american sports and entertainment group for $105 million. the group wants to turn the 112 acre property into a mixed use area, including affordable housing, retail and green space. the a's own the other half of the property. talk over takeover talks with the team are ongoing. new at six following years of debate, a major hurdle has now been cleared in the push to build hundreds of new homes in the east bay. contra costa commissioners have approved a plan to annex more than 600 acres of open space located on the los medanos ridgeline. the land will become part of the city of pittsburg, where leaders have already approved a deve

here's livermore, altamont pass in here in. the fire is out in this area as we come in a little closer, i want to point out the there's altamont at 36 miles an hour right now. the winds are gusting, but i want to see this orange area that's right where the fire is. that's the contour representing the strongest winds right now. and pretty much all day. so it's a funnel. so anytime you get a fire starting out there, even if it's not windy it's going to be windy. did current wind speed right now is we've got 18 miles an hour at corral hollow. i had winds up to 27 and 35 miles an hour earlier. so still blowing in this zone. we're expecting the winds to die down a little bit later tonight. but the winds will keep going. and then of course, we've got to get through some more wind tomorrow. it's still be breezy, but firefighters are getting a good handle on this one. a lot to do with dry brush. trees didn't burn in this one. it was all about the dry brush. trees are still pretty moist, high, higher fuel content or moisture content, bu

this is the intersection of altamont pass road and grant line road. and that's probably because of seeing or smelling the smoke. we don't know what this started. you know how it started. we're not sure if any structures are threatened, but we can see that the wind is blowing this around pretty good. so this is something that we've been following to stay here in the last few minutes. and john, you've been looking at the wind all morning long. so how do you think that's going affect the fire? yeah, it is breezy out there. that is the theme of today is just how windy it is across the bay area. but in particular, you see those red hues just east of livermore. >> that's the altamont pass right there being some of our spots right now around 30, 40 miles per hour. gusts around the altamont pass currently. and that is a pretty rapid wind. fortunately, it does seem like crews that got out there early. hopefully they can get containment there really quickly. but as dari is told you, this is affecting some of our areas just to the east of livermore itself to be

and once again, we did have that high wind warning over the altamont pass.ll take a look at that slow traffic coming up and over for about a 45 minute drive headed from tracy into dublin pleasanton. >> sue, thank you. as you wake up this morning, i want to get you updated on the situation happening right now in the north bay. crews have been working all night to gain control of the point fire in sonoma county. it has already burned more than 1000 acres since it started yesterday. it's burning on the south side of lake sonoma, west of geyserville. it started right along stewarts point, skaggs springs. the east, burning toward healdsburg. and that is the real concern this morning, firefighters spent hours defending vineyards and homes along dry creek road. containment only up to 15% people across the bay area noticing the smoke from this fire, satellite images show that smoke plume spreading down into the east bay. you could check out the view from this alaska airlines flight. you see that thick layer of smoke that is the fire we're talking about. abc7 news re

here on the altamont pass, just east of the north linn road exit. fire is out., it's 75% contained, and cal fire will monitor this site over the next 48 hours to make sure nothing flares back up. they don't know what caused this fire, but the battalion chief says that typically around this time of day, there can be a spark from a vehicle, a driving by that's dragging a chain or from a malfunctioning car or big rig. sometimes a catalytic converter can throw off a spark. this is already, as you mentioned, a busy wildfire season for this part of the bay area. there was that 14,000 acre corral fire in nearby tracey a week and a half ago, a 44 acre wildfire this past saturday on the western edge of the altamont and in this smaller wildfire this morning, the last couple seasons over in this general area, we haven't had really many starts, so we haven't had as many fires as we normally do. this year with the rain we've had the last two years, no fires or very little fires last year, more rain this year. the fuels are prime for a very hot fire last, beginning of the fir

monday's afternoon fire started from an unknown origin just west of the altamont pass. it grew quickly, fueled by dry grass and vegetation. here along patterson pass. cal fire responded in force. many units in the area tackling this large vegetation fire that consumed over 95 acres. a quick response kept it from spreading. >> anytime you add heat and wind to a situation, it can become explosive, but fortunately in this case it was just a grass fire and they've made really good progress in just a short few hours as crews were responding to this fire, another call came in from cross road in livermore, where a big rig roof caught a power line waving in the wind. >> he heard the pop, saw the flash, the line came down and sparks started a vegetation fire. the driver called 911. cal fire and alameda county both responded. pg and e showed up to address the live wire on the ground in downtown livermore marina buntz told us she knows how scary fires can be around here. >> well, we were next to an open land that there were starting construction on, but they hadn't taken the debri

for altamont pass road and for vasco as well.igger already than it was yesterday. we're at 23 minutes from marsh creek, down out of contra costa county to 580. you see the bill for highway four 580 as well. the rest of the bay shows a smooth flow of traffic. i do have an update for highway one. just got this seconds ago. highway one has been reopened just north of pescadero. we have the crash involved a number of vehicles there and reports of major injuries, but we have traffic control in place. i'll continue to follow the reports, but you can now access highway one through the area. once again, back to you all right. thanks so much, mike. well happening now, nearly 60% of americans feel like they are coming up short in their emergency savings. a new survey from bank rate shows it was below 40% back in 2018. more than one quarter of all americans have no emergency savings at all, while nearly 3 in 10 have some but not enough to cover three months worth of expenses. the build up of your savings, they say. experts anyway, they reco

the greenville fire burned 44 acres right along the altamont pass and five 8-80. the fire started just before 11 today, and firefighters stopped the spread within an hour. containment is up to 65% at this time. no one was hurt in the fire. there's no word yet on how it started. it's been a busy week for firefighters in alameda county and beyond. today's fire is the fourth grass fire in the altamont pass area. just this week. two fires started monday evening. both are under control now. so is the corral fire that burned towards tracy and san joaquin county. one week ago. at 14,000 acres, it's the state's largest fire so far this year. there are new details about the teenager who was shot to death in san francisco's dolores park this week. our media partners at the san francisco standard report, the teen has been identified as 19 year old luis manuel arguello inglÉs. he was a lowell high school graduate and san jose state university student. police say he was shot multiple times wednesday night. the family of his started a go fund me page, saying in part, luis was a

we do have that slowing in the altamont pass. but that's pretty typical for the morning drive.estbound coming out of tracy getting on to 580, you have got the usual brake lights and might be a little windy out there too. so just be careful if you are traveling in a larger more high-profile reek vehicle but trample times not bad at all. 35 minutes from 205 over to 680 and the rest of the major freeways actually moving along pretty nicely as far as travel times go on a friday morning. >>> time now for a look at this morning's other top stories, it's day two of the g-7 summit in italy and president joe biden will meet one-on-one with pope francis. the pope's visit to the g-7 is a first with plans to discuss the implications of artificial intelligence. yesterday, the leaders of seven of the world's largest economies were joined by ukraine's president volodymyr zelenskyy as they agreed to give his country a $50 billion loan. president biden and zelenskyy also signed a new security deal committing u.s. military aid and training to ukraine for the next ten years. >>> first lady jill b

by the time they got over the altamont hills here to tracy, it had become the largest wildfire of the year. the grass fire started near the lawrence livermore laboratories. by the time it was contained, burned more than 12,000 acres. >> the altamont pass is known as a windy place any way. but what we're experiencing last night is much more worse than the norm out here. we were looking at sustained winds in the high 30s, gusting into the 60s, making it difficult to even stand, just stand there. let alone engage and try to fight fire. and they were met with those conditions where the fire was just out running them. >> reporter: in fact two firefighters suffered burn injuries when the erratic winds changed direction, pushing the flames back at them. >> watching the grass burn like that was impressive. it made sounds that you typically only hear in brush and timber. it was very rapidly moving, and you have all been fired. >> reporter: and tay own properties in the tracy suburbs that he allowed firefighters to use as a base camp. it's about five miles from highway 580, which they are hopin

windy conditions out near the altamont pass kept firefighters busy in recent days. k2's ali rasmussen studio to explain what the firefighters are preparing for. >> ali garcia preparing for a few busy days this coming week, and also warning people to stay alert when it's warm, dry and windy this time of year. the potential for fire danger is high. >> the midweek heat could be a concern. we're always telling people make smart choices. by this time, probably everybody knows what those are. don't use your power tools in the heat of the day. use them in the morning before it really gets hot. obviously don't throw a lit cigaret ever out your window. >> cal fire faced challenging conditions over the last several days when a grass fire broke out near the altamont pass. that one happened east of livermore late monday afternoon. the patterson fire burned about 100 acres. a quick response from cal fire kept it from spreading, and as of late last night, it was about 75% contained. but it happened just days after the more destructive corral fire happened in the area of tracy in

breezy, but not terribly gusty there, but over in the altamont area, we have gusts to nearly 30mph.nd it's important to remember that as you get closer to the fire, these fires can generate their own microclimates and they can generate wind gusts near the base of the fire that are far greater than the winds at these locations that are receiving the weather observations. so the firefighters are up against a challenge right now as the winds are likely to continue being gusty during the late night and overnight hours before tapering off a bit tomorrow. and we have a little bit of a heat spike coming in a couple of days, which also increases concerns about the fires. i'll have a full look at the weather in just a few minutes. jr. >> spencer, thank you so much. we look forward to that. we are sending updates as they happen on this brushfire on the abc seven news bay area app. you can download it and enable push alerts to get news notifications sent to your mobile device. in the south bay police in san jose are investigating the city's 17th homicide of the year. officers got a call about

i just checked the altamont pass which is known to be gusty. >> it is gusting around 30 miles per hour at this 11:00pm hour and around the livermore by the valley, it's in the single digits. so here are the current wind speeds. winds have backed off, not as strong as yesterday. so that was really the challenge yesterday, especially with the lack of daylight in the evening. so today they had a lot during the day to make those water drops and contain the fire, make those lines. so current wind speeds you can see san jose 5 miles per hour, 8 miles per hour. but east of livermore notice that purple and red that indicates the 30 mile per hour range. so still gusty around the area. but it will be a much more favorable weather once again tomorrow because we do have the system to our north in the pacific northwest. now we're going to catch the tail end of this and what it's going to it's going bring us some cloudy skies and the strong onshore flow. so it will be another breezy day tomorrow, but the temperatures will be cooler. so tomorrow is really the last day for that because we could see mo
