Yeah, and, you know, unfortunately, like you said, those fears from the lightning strikes was they would start fires and thats what were seeing. Were going to continue to see the poor air quality, unfortunately, at least for today as well because we have that spare the air alert in place. Its sort of a mix of smoke and welcome back. Washington post reporter bob fog especially around the woodward has shocked the country coastline right now. If you take a look at half moon this week with taped comments by bay, you can see the dense fog president donald trump. Among the most important using our Weather Underground cameras there and it looks gray revelations is president s and cloudy in through san jose as well. 61 degrees right now. Acknowledge many of the pr wind speeds are calm, which is potential spread and deadliness of covid19. Actu more at ground political analyst Larry Gerston level, the fact its not getting the chance to really mix out of joins us with his perspective. The area. Current temperatures also good morning to you. Relatively cool, 61 degrees in how did this all come about so san jose. 59 in oakland. Many months after the recordings 56 in San Francisco. And lets talk about the air were made . This is amazing. Quality. Ill get more detail on that and i mean, woodward went to the what to expect today and president some time ago and tomorrow in a few minutes. Kira . Well see you then, vianey, asked the president to talk with thanks so much. We will get back to the air him, to record the meetings. Quality in just a moment. First our other top story this they met 18 times, altogether morning. Two l. A. County sheriffs about 30 hours of recorded deputies ambushed, shot at point material of the president blank range, and it was all talking. Caught on surveillance camera. These are the president s words. You hear his voice. We have a look at the scene from and whole idea of the book is to last night, an aerial view from try to understand the trump our nbc station in los angeles. Administrations behavior. And with that trump agreed. The shooting happened about 7 00 now one caveat here is that the p. M. And the hunt is still on for the shooter. Trump and his folks thought the investigators say it happened book wouldnt come out until after the election. Near a metro station in compton. However, it came out before the a 31yearold female officer and election. And were going to see the book 24yearold male officer both were shot as they sat in their itself in its entirety on patrol cars. Tuesday. Right now there are some copies that have leaked out and were th Sheriffs Office says both beginning to learn an awful lot deputies are fighting for their about those conversations. So what are we learning . Lives. What are some of the topics . The Sheriffs Office says both the book which is titled rage were part of the same class and as we just showed. Have been on the force for just sorry to cut you off there. A little more than one year. And i think there will be a lot of rage. We want to warn you the its amazing because of the Surveillance Video of the shooting is disturbing. Forthrightness of the president. It shows a single shooter, a man, approaching the deputies yes, as you said earlier on, kira, the president knew at parked suv and opening fire least six seems, some say up to through the passenger side eight weeks before hand. The president says he didnt talk about it to keep the panic window. Weve chosen to freeze the video before you see the shooting. Down. Other people would suggest he didnt talk about it because he the l. A. Sheriff says that these didnt want it out so they would deputies are more than just a uniform. Have to deal with the pandemic. They are real people. That was a cowardly act. The president talked about other the two deputies were doing their job, minding their own things, his coziness with business, watching out for the dictators such as kim in north safety of the people on the korea, putin in russia. Train and seeing Somebody Just he talked about such things as walk up and start shooting on racism. He talked about a very secret military weapon that he says the them, its it dismays me at United States has and now, of the same time. Course, the rest of the world theres no pretty way to say it. Knows. He really spilled a lot of beans again, the search continues for who s in this conversation, all of which, again, was captured on as they both cling to their lives. Back here in the bay area tape. Very few people were around most today is day 27 of unhealthy of the time other than the first air. Weve been advised to all stay interview in the oval office. Inside to keep safe, but after the rest were done quite about six months of staying confidentially between woodward and the president. Inside because of the covid19 pandemic, a lot of people and so, of course it depends ignored those warnings and just wanted to get out this weekend. Who you ask. Some say the president was santana row yesterday was packed. Protecting all of us from panic. No parking spots, bustling with others, of course, are saying he people, many without n95 masks wasnt being forthright. So what do you think this says seemingly unconcerned about the about the president s unhealthy conditions. Credibility . Kira, we know most of the people told us that after being cooped up for so long theyre willing to just risk being exposed to the poor air quality. Votes are baked in. Some folks we spoke with traveled to the bay area because it could really make the difference so, yes, republicans are saying i believe the they say even our bad air is better than their air at home. President. He was trying to protect me. Today is way better than theyre making a lot out of nothing. Democrats are saying, see, i told you so. Usual. I know for santa cruz the air we knew all along he knew and has been horrible. Wasnt doing anything about it. Leaving 50,000 to 100,000 people its a little better over here. Dying who would have not died sanity, needing to interact had we known earlier. But the ones you want to worry about and look to are those with have some adult social interaction. Independents, that 10 to 15 forecasters say the air who could make the difference in quality index is expected to wisconsin, in michigan, in improve this week, but the bay pennsylvania, in florida, in area remains under a spare the those key battleground states. Air alert through tomorrow. And so how they look at this and across the bay we found people out in the east bay downstream could say an awful enjoying what they could of lot about the outcome of this their weekend. In walnut creek our crews saw election. And, quickly, before we let folks at the park having you go, do you think this picnics, shopping at the farmers revelation falls into the market. If you have to go outdoors, try background with other issues as we near the election . Your best to limit your time i dont think so. Outside. Experts with the bay area air chuck todd talked about this as Quality Management district tell well earlier in the show because us there are still many unknowns it all deals with the covid when it comes to the wildfire virus. Thats why. Smokes negative impact on our thats affected 200,000 deaths health. For most of us you can go out now, over 6 million americans. A little bit if you have to run i think this is going to resonate with people because errands, things like that. Its the fundamental reason why there arent a ton of definitive there may be change in this studies for when air quality gets this high, what the results election. Theres just so much every are. Week, but, larry, we do we know its a lung irritant, appreciate your insight every and we know wildfire smoke week. I would look forward to seeing you a week from now and seeing creates vascular problems. And remember those cloth how things have changed. Thanks to you, larry. Masks were all wearing for the it is 7 50. Well be back with a fefinal lot pandemic, unfortunately, do not protect us from the smoke. Weather. Wear an n95 on one even though t wont filter every single last particle of the wildfire smoke. It will improve your safety. Now to a grim discovery at the north complex fire burning near chico in oroville. Three more bodies were found, bringing the death toll in that fire alone to 12. Fire crews are struggling to make progress. So far more than 258,000 acres have burned. The fire is just 22 contained. Gusting winds have eased, and smoke has blocked out the sun lowering temperatures there, but that smoke is actually helping firefighters. The fire is still burning. We do have a spot across the road which is not what we wanted. Our saving grace we have the smoky air above us which is keeping the fire down. The north complex fire remains the deadliest in california this year. The death toll could climb. Several people are still unaccounted for. There are 28 major fires burning across our how widespread they are. Since the beginning of the year wildfires have burned more than 3 million acres, destroyed 4,000 structures. 22 people have died. The scu fire is at 98 containment. The lnu fire in the north bay is 96 contained. And the czu fire in the santa cruz is 87 up from 85 . The august fire in Mendocino County is just 25 contained. And the creek fire, raging in the Sierra National forest near fresno, is only 8 contained. A little bit of a bright spot, a welcome sight, help arriving this weekend. Ten firefighters from the new Jersey Forest Fire Service landed at sfo. Firefighters from dallas also are heading to california to help fight these massive fires. Turning now to decision 2020, the president was in nevada rallying supporters. It comes ahead of a trip to Northern California tomorrow for an update on the devastating fires here. President trump hit several familiar themes including the economy, law and order and complaints of unfair media coverage. He also spent a fair amount of time attacking his opponent, president ial candidate joe biden. He accused biden as having an good sunday morning. I hope your morning is off to an extreme leftwind agenda when it okay start especially with the comes to policing to green current views. Its looking a little gray, and energy. California has already were getting a mix of fog and implemented this extreme agenda, smoke throughout the bay area. And they are experiencing so how is our air quality massive blackouts. Currently looking and what can you know that. We expect moving forward . Lets get right into it because california. They like wind. I have this great shot of they like wind. Cupertino hills and this is oh, darling, lets watch thanks to the pg e camera as you television. Could see there the glow of the im sorry, the wind isnt sky when it comes to sunshine in blowing. We cant watch television. As you likely know the recent the corner but certainly noticing that haze. Power shutoffs were due to the and thats whats going to remain in the skies throughout dangerous fire conditions not a today. We have those foggy conditions especially around the coastline. Lack of energy because of our reliance on wind power. Its also managed to make its way further inland. Tomorrow President Trump is due half moon bay, the shot you can to travel just outside see with our Weather Underground sacramentoback in 2018, this ism cameras this is a view over san jose. Current temperatures in the 50s a similar visit, as the and 60s. 61 degrees. President toured the destruction our air quality does remain from the campfire in paradise. Unhealthy. Now we have a pretty dense fog trump has been criticized for going this morning, and were not publicly referencing the down to less than two miles in wildfires until yesterday in a visibility in the south bay, tweet, but his administration that marine layer has sort of notes that the president did made its way further inland down indeed sign a disaster to less than two miles in declaration for california about a month ago. Livermore. Oakland down to about a mile. It is 7 09, and we do have santa cruz now at less than a much more ahead on today in the mile. Keep in mind that when were bay. Coming up, we take you live to seeing this low visibility its talk with chuck todd who has a not just fog. Its also smoke. So well see a little bit of preview of this weeks meet the press. Clearing of the fog, but because levis stadium, where is it . Its mixing with the smoke, still shrouded in smoke. We are tracking todays air were likely going to keep on quality to see if todays game will happen next. Seeing the gray skies through the afternoon. Now what does this mean for our air quality . We had a little bit of a clearing yesterday because of onshore flow. Then the dolandfire smoke over bay area into the were still at less than 200 but it remains unhealthy. The north bay right now at 169. When i mentioned the numbers were talking about the air quality index which measures the particulate matter based on what the readings are. Right now in the bay 166. The south bay 171 and remember on friday we managed to climb no the 200s. Yesterday we had a couple of areas in the trivalley climb above the 200s. That really is an hourbyhour situation. So its important to note that even though those are current numbers within the next hour that can che that starts, if theres a shift in something. So keep youjoses temperature tr this afternoon, 79 degrees by about 3 00. Were actually going to be running a few degrees cooler because of that onshore flow. Not going to get much in the way of, you know, significant clearing in the skies. So the big question here is will the game go on . Well, this is what were looking at right now. The bay area air Quality Management district outlook shows an aqi forecast between 190 and 200 right around game time, which is 1 25. You can see this view of lee vi stadium. Showing a mix of fog a idea wha were forecasting. Halftime still expecting to keep the smoke and haze. If it goes above 200 it could bring impacts of delays. The reason for that is anything above 200 is considered very unhealthy. So as we inch closer to that game time well have a better idea of where the air quality stands. As far as your forecast, by tuesday we have a lowpressure system near the coast that will bring a shift in the winds, hopefully bettering our air quality and then it will be locally breezy at times especially for the higher welcome back. Just like every sunday time to elevation mountain areas heading bring in chuck todd, nbc news into thursday as that low political director and moderator continues to stay off the shore. Of meet the press. You can see it there and thats thanks for joining us this going to keep us at least with morning. The temperatures in the 60s and chuck, hard to believe times 70s and 80s for San Francisco seem to be flying, we have about and inland areas. A month and a half until the kira . All right, vianey, thank you president ial election. I had to pull out my calendar to so much. We will keep our fingers crossed be sure. Last week you and i talked about for the 49ers game today. President trumps recent well, what better way to end a newscast than with a story of an negative comments about the military. This week yet another bombshell, adorable puppy rescued from a the release of Bob Woodwards fire zone. Butte county sheriffs deputies recordings and with holding were up near berry creek outside of chico and oroville where the about information of covid19. Will these revelations impact north complex fire is burning. The president ial race . One rescuer happened to spot this puppy, this little black well, i think its already impacted it in two ways, number one, this was a lost week for puppy. The president. Its not any lost week, this is he was taken to the vet for a the first week after labor day, full checkup. Deputies were able to locate his the first week of the general election. If you think about it, go back family. To last friday, you mentioned nk you so much for making us a part of your sunday the piece about the atlantic and military folks. Morning. More local news tonight and all they had this whole plan after day on nbcbayarea. Com. The Republican Convention to well see you back here next turn this campaign, put biden on weekend. Take care. The defensive, make him defend unrest in the streets, try to focus this on the economy and law and order and instead hes having to play having to explain himself. Hes tweeted or retweeted about that atlantic article some 60 times. He cant stop talking about woodward. I would say as a distraction this has had a huge impact to him already. As an issue im one who believes the coronavirus, those that are voting on the virus, have already decided. I think that explains bidens lead in some places. I think it explains why hes doing well with the most vulnerable population by age, its folks over 65. And so if i can piggyback on what you were mentioning about joe biden, so if trump is talking so much about the atlantic article still, what do you think biden needs to focus vo while you may not be running an architectural firm, on to improve his odds . Tending hives of honeybees, and mentoring a teenager its interesting. Theres a lot of people giving joe biden advice on this. Your life is just as unique. Yo care, a Raymond JamesFinancial Advisor gets to know you, your passions, and the way you help others. Prescription drugs on the economy, should joe biden talk so you can live your life.
