For everybody else to go in. Thats what it made me think. Reporter a pelosi Spokesman Says the business offered for the speaker to come enon monday, told her they were allowed by the city to have one customer at a time in the business.

Every woman in San Francisco whos been dying to get their hair done for the last five months knows what the rules are. Reporter some are coming to pelosis defense and blaming the business for allowing a hair appointment to happen. I think if she had all the information she wouldnt have taken those acs, but i think shes a very busy person and shes doing a lot of great things for the country. Reporter others say its not that easy because people are jo tough dsnt feelo of proportion when i have friends that have lost their businesses that have put every last ounce of money and blood sweat and tears into their businesses and theyre being closed. Reporter now, i did reach out to the salon owner here to get her side of things. She did not return my calls.

She has been identified as diana jones, a firefighter with the Crescent Fire Department near fort worth texas. It happened yesterday near the mepd seeno national forest. Jones and her son were in california working with a private contractor when she was involved in a vehicle accident. I guess they must have enjoyed it. Theyve been going up there for several years so this time of year we always miss them when they go off up there, and they always come back only this time i guess shes not coming back. Jones posted this image from the fire zone to show what it looked like. We want to check in with abc 7 news meteorologist sandhya patel. And as we take a look at the conditions right now were going to check out live doppler 7 because this isdritical in the fight against these fires. A fog right along the coast already pushing into the north bay. Weve had favorable conditions for the firefighters, cooler than average conditions. Today higher humidity and light winds, thats what were facing tonight, so that should help the crews out there. 57 degrees, 87 humidity near the walbridge fire. 70 degrees, 64 relative humidity in that general vicinity. We look at the woodward fire and it is completely saturated. It is misty, drizzly, 55 degrees, southsouthwest wind which is going to bring that onshore push of higher humidity in through the area through the night. As we look at the czu lightening complex 57 degrees, westnorthwest wind up to 5 gusting right now. Air quality still being impacted by the spare the air alert ex10ed for the next four days. Ill be back with a look at the smoke forecast coming right up. In the south bay as the complex fires continue to burn parts of the bay area Santa Clara County leaders, local researchers and fire officials are looking for a better way to respond to the ongoing threat of fire incidents. Amanda . Reporter ama, as it stands Santa Clara County sits between two major complex fires. Were talking about the czu and scu. So tonight were taking a closer look how several in the south bay plan to improve Wildfire Response and resources. The massive complex fires burning around the bay area have become some of the largest in state history. More reason improved research, response and resources are so necessary. Its not a whose fault is it, its really a what do we do now, how do we sfep up, what resources do we need, who has them, how quickly can we implement. Officials met tuesday. Theyre considering how the countys Fire Department can best fight and suppress the ever increasing large scale fire incidents in the county and throughout california. These go from local events to regional events to multistate events relatively quickly. Reporter the idea would be to focus on technology, response and risk sjsu launched the nations largest Wildfire Research center bringing together faculty members and millions of dollars in new tech. The main thing was to build a team with different expertise and new technologies to the problem. Reporter the team will use academic tuesday help predict and better understand wildfires. For example, we now are operating a advanced wildfire pretick system that takes wildfire information and weather information, and it allows us to forecast how wildfires create their own weather and how that impacts fire spread. Reporter a relatively new year old radar system will also allow them to look into radar loops. Those can now adjusted into our forecasting system in realtime so we can better predict fire behavior and fire spread in the future and smoke dispersion and dice transports. Its research already being applied to todays Wildfire Response. Weve already sent the model forecast, the realtime system out to some cal fire folks who are managing some of the fires in the bay area right now. Now, clement, says the goal is to help provide a better understanding of wildfire management and expertise and biology, Mechanical Engineering and environmental studies. The National ParkService Released this video today to show how its using drones to help fight the woodward fire.

Theyre outraged the one bill they believe to have the biggest chance of true reform wasnt even put up for a vote. Reporter nationwide protests sparked by the Police Killing of george floyd have fueled a wave of Police Reform bills in states across the country. Here in california last night lawmakers passed 5 of the 7 pieces of legislation aimed to change how police operate. Activists say the one bill that could have done the most died before going up for a vote. James birch has been fighting for sb 731, a bill that would have created a way to strip badges from officers found to have committed serious misconduct. California is one of five states without a way to decertify bad acting police. There are officers who then go take up at another Law Enforcement division somewhere else. Reporter peace Officers Research office of california is happy the bill didnt pass. In a statement they told abc 7 news while they support the spirit and intent of sd 731 it reached far beyond the Police Licensing process and includes policies that would potentially penalize even the most respectful officers. Other Police Proposals did pass the legislator including one bill that would ban Police Officers from choke holds. For birch its not enough he wants to know why the decertification bill was not even put up for a vote. If youre not going to vote for a bill like this at a time like this we need to know your names. You need to stand up and say im not voting for this bill for this reason. New at 11 00, a mothers love versus a politicians passion.

She returned to capital on monday with her baby to vote for several bills she supported. Not an easy decision weighing the calculations of do i bring her, is there exposure for her, exposure for me. Assembly members agreed on a proxy decision. Mutr Maternity Leave was not considered a high risk category. He and i are committed to working together we look at this policy and look at it again and figure out how it can be more inclusive and flexible. She was up stairs in her office when the housing bill she supported came up for vote. She rushed down to vote with elle nestled against her. Andal elle agrees. The moment brought attention to another issue. Its a little nervewracking but i think what it shows is many women across this country are faced with how do they balance work with child rearing. She says it highlights a lack of support with parents. And im going to finish feeding my daughter, thank you. Speaker Anthony Rendon issued an apology tonight to wicks about the proxy issue saying inclusivity and electing more women into politics are core elements of our democratic values.

It tree was originally set to be removed starting this morning but a small group of people gathered to protest that idea. Workers needed time to prepare the work site so the removal was pushed back a day. Protesters say theyve hired a tree service to take a look at the historic eucalyptus for themselves. We want to make sure we get a Second Opinion on it and theyre doing everything they can to save the tree. This represents the heritage of pleasanton. It was here far before i was here.
