Happy friday, april 24 and lets check with Steve Paulson and i heard you say a little change in the weather back and forth the next few days. I would say the next couple of weeks, it will warm up and cool down and then warmup and cooldown going to early may. Today will be one of the warmest days although yesterday it is tough to be 89 for a sum locations but highpressure is a fair weather friend and sfos is mostly cloudy with that is deceiving, they are up a 20,000 feet and will not last long i went upper 80s but again it is almost impossible to try to nail some of these when temperatures are that warm because 50s at the start 57 and santa rosa and san jose but were running cooler for areas that are usually pretty warm and we were yesterday like in fairfield and concord. But the High Pressure is still owing to be large and in charge which will equal temperatures well above average and even the coastal bay will get in on this, santa rosa at 88 and livermore at 86.

It will be nice, just a little bit of fog down to the mendocino coast but not amount to anything, otherwise clear skies, warming continues and those temperatures which warmed up yesterday will continue and this will be the warmest day for many. If everything holds near 90 for some well inland around antioch in brentwood and fairfield, and santa rosa possible. 52 Golden Gate Park and mostly clear but some areas running like a nap airport, concord and novato is 7 and santa rosas 3 nys santa rosa 3 . I will show you that in a second. Berkeley is at 56, 52 at Half Moon Bay and fremont at 53 and 61 out at brentwood which was down five yesterday. On the peninsula upper 40s like atherton, Los Altos Hills 64. Sfo west at six and hayward east wind and santa rosa has a north wind at 10 and if it holds it will give them upper 80s to near 90, 52 bodega bay, colder than yesterday, very cold water temperatures so it will not take much to get the fog going to happen tomorrow and more so into sunday. Today is the warmest day for many and 70s to 80s, downshift a little bit into the weekend and in warming up again early next week. Holidays dont pause for the pandemic but they are adjusting coming up how the bay areas muslim communities are observing ramadan during the stayathome order. Also a sign of normalcy and the world of sports, we will look at who the 49ers picked up during yesterdays historic, first of its kind virtual nfl draft. This is a lie look at traffic. The Golden Gate Bridge with two cars on it right now and wide open Sal Castaneda is watching that and everything in traffic and he is pulling together great music for this mornings edition of traffic jams coming up here on mornings on 2. Welcome back, the Trump Administration is pushing what it calls Laboratory Evidence suggesting the spread of the coronavirus may go down this summer. The under secretary for science and technology at the department of Homeland Security says the data suggest a virus doesnt live as long and conditions which include heat, light and humidity but he stopped short of saying warmer weather itself could defeat covid 19. It would be irresponsible to say for us to say that we feel the summer totally kill the virus. We have an opportunity though to get ahead. Vice president mike pence says he is confident the virus could be largely behind us by memorial day. Later in the White House Briefing President Trump suggested his own theory about a possible way of attacking the virus. I see that the disinfectant would knock that out in a minute and is there way we can do Something Like that by injection inside or the cleaning. It gets into the lungs and does a tremendous number on that. Spent just for equivocation doctors do not advise injecting or drinking disinfectant and the cdc and other Health Professionals confirmed. Disinfectants are toxic and they can kill you. Online shopping has become more popular as we all hunker down and observe social distancing guidelines.

Either they have been laid off or furloughed or they fear that might be the case. That is just a good common sense for them. I do want to give it a little more time to see what will happen with the economy. Will the rates continue to drop, will this be my lucky break . Bay area home sales have been very slow these past weeks but many bay Area Real Estate agents are optimistic sales will pick up dramatically once the crisis eases.

The Las Vegas Raiders were the first team to pick a wide receiver with the 12th overall pick they picked henry ruggs of alabama. He is known for his speed and had the fastest at the combined and he joins fellow firstround pick and alabama alumni, running back josh jacobs. 19 overall the Las Vegas Raiders selected ohio state cornerback damon arnett and he came back for his senior year and wanted to improve his draft stock and it looks like it paid off. He was the second ohio state cornerback picked off the board and the raiders acquired that pick from the khalil mack trade with the Chicago Bears last night nfl commissioner Roger Goodell announced las vegas will host the 2022 draft, las vegas was supposed to host the event this year but it was called off because of the pandemic.

It was nice to have Something Else to talk about and watch besides all of this. A nice break for everybody. 4 49 am. A little break from the warmer weather this weekend it sounds like but lets check with steve. That is correct and that goes into sunday but then it is warmer again, all signs are warming up for everybody, up and over everything goes, the weather headlines have a lot of sunshine this will be the warmest day for most i would be hardpressed to get it up above 89 like travis yesterday, the fog returns this weekend and next tuesday looks hot but much cooler by next friday.

This month its being reserved differently because of the stay at home orders. As jessie says, its going hightech. Reporter hearmal remains in place as the muslims start the month long celebration. The muslim prayers call for people to line up shoulder to shoulder. That would make the possibility of spreading the virus a real possibility. Reporter they say that desire to flatten the curb is leading the leader to do the prayers online instead of mosques and community center. Its one of the five pillars of islam marked by prayer, fasting and community togethererness. Its on you being alive to worship. It does not help anyone nor your religious dedication if its the matter of death and life situation. The change is difficult for the 350,000 muslim in the bay area theres no meals to share or community prayers. Were going to be doing zoom dinner parties. Just bringing the food to the computer and have the dinner parties that way. Muslims are not the only group of worshippers impacted. Easter celebrations and services were cancelled this year for chris mans, and those of the jewish faith could not share the pass over experience because everybody was sheltered in place. One has to put it in a higher thing of preserving life has to be at the head of the challenge of being together during this month.

The Richmond Mcdonalds near 23 is also on that list. Time is had 58. Hospitals and states are helping the employees by giving them a place to shop for hard to find items. In henderson outside of las vegas, the hospital realized that its essential works were having a hard time finding the goods they transformed the cafeteria in to a Grocery Store selling food that it would otherwise have cooked. Theyre able to sell everything including cleaning supplies for wholesale prices. Ever since they opened this up, i have been doing like everyday i pass by and see what i can bring home. They will come in and see something that they cant get at a local Grocery Store whether thats a kleining product and they will grab that and they will head home after a long day of work then come back and take care of, you know, our family members that are here in the hospital. Now, richard wood started the program at a sister hospital nearby and shared the idea with others. Now, the hospitals in 28 states have similar programs. You have to pay bills. We have to survive. We have to live life. Theyre not being completely empathetic to our situation.
