That its a familyoriented sport. The low riders spirit is alive and well and it will be front and center at carnaval. It just kinking in, its unbelievable. I know its an incredibly difficult swim but thats even more incredible is the outreach and inspiration that its achieved. A treacherous journey through freezing cold sharkinfested waters. A challenge turned into reality for a historic swim. I mean, more power to her. Thats absolutely amazing and im gianna franco. I dont know if i could ever accomplish that. But someone who can, you are pretty incredible. I think you could. You think so . I believe in you and i think her story shows us all we can. Im not going to make you do it. Okay. And you are not going to make me do it but were going to be inspired by her doing that. I love that. Good morning, everybody so nice to have you with us and lets take a live look outside as we start our day together. As a community. 5 00 in the morning. And look at us glow as we await the sunrise. And the sun comes up and we talk to jessica. Good morning, jessica. Cooler temperatures as we go to the weekend. Absolutely. And reed, i honestly just want to say you inspired me by saying that. Me too. You dont have to do it but you can. And i just i love that energy. And i love that ambition. All right, lets take a quick look at whats going on outside outside here in the bay area as we head outside today its cooler and a little bit more mild and this weekend its going to be cool and cloudy right around the corner for us heading into memorial day. Now there are some big changes in the forecast for us right around the corner. Daytime highs, just two days ago we were sitting in the 60s and 70s. All along the peninsula with 80s off into the inland areas. Today, thats not going to be the case for us. Head over to the map real quick. Expecting more 60s in the forecast today near San Francisco and 70s in the east bay with 80s all the way off closer to concord and antioch and by this weekend actually were going to be sitting well below average. Were talking about daytime highs down into the low 50s in certain pockets of the bay. Were also expecting 60s as well and you know what im going to have more on what you can expect coming up in just a bit and yesterday was a gusty day throughout the bay area. Today the winds are a lot lighter and thats going to be nice for us especially up in thenorth bay. Where we saw wind gusts anywhere up to around 40 Miles Per Hour. Today, down into the Santa Clara Valley, were already dealing with light winds yesterday and well see a similar setup this afternoon and more on what you can expect as we get closer to memorial day . Just a bit. All right jess. Thank you. Taking a look at the roadways right now. Golden gate bridge, a pretty seamless start right now for most of the commute which is good headed across the san mateo bridge right now things are fairly quiet as well. Bay bridge toll plaza, metering lights are off and looking good here also kind of the calm before the storm. Tomorrow were going to see lot of car on the roadway for that getaway friday. But today, lot of people might be hitting the skies so things might be busy at your local airports and keep that in mind. Reed . All right, g, thank you so much. Lets look live at oakland this morning where mayor sheng thao faces a budget crisis and the planned sale of the coliseum. So how much is oakland short . Reportedly 177 million. And the concern from those of you who live there is this. Potential cuts to Public Safety programs at a time when robberies are on the rise in oakland and they driving out businesses and oakland leaders announced yesterday that they will sell their share of the coliseum for 105 million. To a group called the African American sports and entertainment group. The hope by mayor thao new Affordable Housing and outdoor space where the as built the legacy. When asked how the sale helps the citys money troubles, she didnt get specific but promised returns beyond the sale price. Listen. Once we finish this off that theres a clause in there demand for Community Engagement and not just that, but Strong Community benefit. So theres another major pint to be made here. Yes, oakland is selling its share of the coliseum. But guess what . The as still own half that site and espn this morning reporting that the as were approached to sell their portion but the team is reportedly not interested. This will be fascinating. So while current oakland leaders face these decisions, the former police chief there fired by mayor sheng thao now wants azelate on the city council. This morning, we are hearing from Leronne Armstrong himself. He filed to compete for the at large seat currently held by vice mayor Rebecca Kaplan saying his unmatched knowledge and experience will serve the public. If people know anything about me, they know that i have been somebody that has worked closely with other people and been willing to come out and solve problems together. And thats no different than ill be as a councilmember hopefully. Fascinating and it will be news making. Think about this. If armstrong wins that seat, the man once fired will face off at City Council Meetings with a person who fired him. Well be following this one closely. G . What a dynamic there. If you were in redwood city it was probably hard to miss the smoke in the air. Because of a fire at the sims Metal Recycling plant. This is off of sea port boulevard. Now the fire is out but at one point yesterday afternoon, a shelterinplace order was issued for people nearby to stay inside. Andrea nakano reports that people could see smoke as far as south as gilroy but for the People Living right down the road, there were real concerns about what was in the air. Reporter lisa balm had lived in a nearby manufactured home for the last eight years. They noticed the smoke drifting right into their neighborhood wednesday afternoon. Its a little scary because of the smoke and, you know, i thought uhoh. Reporter the concern was mainly for her husband. I had called my husband on the way to home from work. And i told him to close all the windows. You have them open. He said yes. So close them all. Because hes got asthma really bad. Reporter as soon as she got home, lisa checked the mail to find this. A letter from the department of toxic substances control about an application for a Hazardous Waste permit from sims metal. When we seen the letter today about trying to get rid of toxic materials and caring about the environment, it seems as if all the toxicity companies are down this end of sea port and were getting the brunt of all the fumes and the smoke. Reporter San Mateo County advised those who are sensitive to smoke to stay indoors and close their windows. Balm did exactly that. Fearing what may be in the smoke. Which i was in the Construction Industry and i know if that stuff burns or whatever, it puts off toxic fumes. Its not good. What we got right here . Toxic fume. Reporter the bay area air Quality Management district is investigating the smoke impacts. The Redwood City Fire Department is looking into the cause of the fire. Lisa says its been an unsettling day and this has made them more curious about the scrap yard. We live in a manufactured park down the road here. And so its very concerning because they dont care about us who have to live close to these industrial areas. Well, we reached out to the department of toxic substances control and sims metal while dtsc hasnt responded yet. And this is not the first fire at a sims facility. Back in 2018 if you remember a massive fire erupted at their richmond plant. It was a 20foot high pile of scrap metal that caught fire. Sending toxic smoke into nearby neighborhoods. Well, call for help this morning to be on the lookout for a missing oakland woman last seen hiking in Mendocino County tuesday morning. Get a look at the screen. 70yearold elizabeth shank last known to be in this area walking just north of fort bragg near brawl point road. Shank visited the area from oakland and is known to have some medical conditions which make this search even more urgent this morning. Police want you to know to just be on the lookout for her and shank last seen wearing a white suite sweater, a vest and white jeans. Nearly two years to the day word of a 2 million settlement in the mass shooting that left 19 students and two teachers dead in texas. Officers there accused of waiting more than an hour to take that gunman down in the case. And the suits are not over. A group of parents also filing lawsuits against dozens of Texas DepartmentPublic Safety officers and the school district. Lets go to mexico where theres word this morning of tragedy. At least nine people including a child killed at Campaign Rally stage collapsed in the northern mexican state. 63 others injured there. Heavy winds to blame for the collapse last night at an event for president ial candidate Jorge Alvarez manez who has suspended all Upcoming Campaign rallies,. Back in the United States the woman who once beat the drum to keep donald trump out of office will vote for him. Were talking about nicky haley who spoke about trump during a washington, d. C. Event yesterday. Haley changing her tune. She called trump unhinged and unqualified and now says she will vote for the probable president ial nominee donald trump. All right, reed, the time now 5 09 and this morning were talking to a south bay congressman about the concerns all of us should have over ai especially after Scarlett Johansson says her voice was used without her permission. And this week, actreScarlett Johansson will have more on that coming up in just a minute but live nation and people trying to buy tickets are not seeing eye to eye.

This comes after we learned about a partnership to i to try and protect artists voices in the age of ai just last week. We continue to talk about this as my computer says good morning to me apparently. Shawn chitnis joins us now and maybe my computer was saying good morning to you shawn. Maybe its ai. Could be ai right . A bay area congressman is talking about how to protect everybody as ai becomes a bigger part of the headlines. And we see her take this on. Reporter we keep saying this every day theres a new development. Something we have to keep up on and so right now what were dealing with is this controversy and the ongoing concern over Artificial Intelligence in hollywood. And it speaks to the challenges ahead for people in many Different Industries as well as our own personal protections when it comes to ai. On monday, we did learn that Scarlett Johansson believed her voice was used without consent by openai and she was shocked and andered she called out the ceo of Openai Sam Altman because sky the new ai voice for the company sounds a lot like the voice she had in the movie her. She says altman asked her twice to do the project but she declined the offer. They have paused using skys voice as in all of its products out of respect to her. So all of that comes after we reported last week on the partnership between veritone and Creative Artist Agency to have a Digital Assets chase protecting actors in the age of ai. We heard about a local voice actor worried about the ability to protect everyones work even those just coming into the industry. So thats why we were able to speak to south bay congressmanrow canna. He says more needs to be done to avoid another situation like what happened to johannson. Specifically protecting all actors. He believes Congress Needs to act and pass new laws on this issue. Those laws need to say you cannot take someones voice and recreate it without their explicit consent. You cannot take their data without their consent. Reporter so the congressman says he supports a federal ai regulatory agency. He thinks that theres going to be interest on boast sides of the aisle to do it but he didnt expect that he will have anything passed until after election in november. Now it is also worth noting that he had a lot to say about ai and believes that there are things specifically for the rest of us who are not actors in hollywood that is another reason why congress has to get involved. And i think its great that theyre trying to put something together to help regulate it and make sure its safe and makes sense for everyone as we continue to find more and more about it. But i just dont know how theyre going to do it so easily. The internet is big and broad. Hard enough to track things on social and other websites. You know what else is big and broad. Lobbyists in congress. If theyre going to push this past the november election a lot of them knocking on doors of congress. Theyll be the ones to watch. Reporter absolutely. Okay. Shawn chitnis, thank you. All right, lets take a live look outside on this thursday morning and we see the weekend and it is going to be a very busy one with memorial day just upon us. Well, some weather here on the coast is going to be kind of nice but in other areas jess, parts of the country, tornadoes, rain and so much destruction weve seen. Exactly. Weve been talking about it all week and now over in texas, theres receive rear storms and they brought rain and wind inside a mall in the city of temple just north of austin. Part of the roof actually blew off there and lots of homes and businesses here are being damaged or destroyed. The city even confirmed a small plane was blown over at the local airport. The tiedowns were clearly not good enough. Now as we take a look at this, it doesnt stop with just the rain and the wind and take a look at this. Check out some of the video that nay posted on social media just in that area of that thick hail falling down. This is the suburbs just north of dallas. The National Weather service says they can expect more hail and wind speeds anywhere up to around 60 Miles Per Hour and speaking of intense winds, and hail of course, this video right behind me shows just how bad it gets in certain parts of arkansas. A storm passing here left several toppled trees there. Just near the town of jones borrow. By some accounts the hail actually dropped close to around a quarter size. Now were going to continue to keep you updated on that forecast there and the local areas. Because the storm is still continuing to track off into the east. Back here though in west coast areas, we have been dealing with very, very mild conditions. Its thanks to High Pressure thats been parked offshore but thats keeping the storm track to the north of us. However i will say this. Heading into this weekend, we have just a deep enough trough of low pressure thats actually going to cool us off a lot more. We could see some coastal drizzle and those clouds are definitely going to stick around for us as we head into the Holiday Weekend and now carnaval is happening for us this weekend. Its going to be an amazing event and were expecting 60s both saturday and sunday though. Those Cool Conditions are definitely going to make you make you want to have a jacket nearby as we head into these afternoon hours. Of course the more north we go the more warmer it gets. Napa, a little bit of the coastal drizzle will be expected but areas like that, stunning weather as we head into the afternoon hours. Thats bottle rock and we have plenty of over events to talk about as we getter cloth weekend forecast and still thursday though. And daytime highs today, theyre nice and cool. Especially along the coastline. Were talking about 60s today near San Francisco. 50s near pacifica and halfmoon bay. More east we go okay, well, yes the warmer it gets of course. Were expecting 80s again anywhere from concord over into antioch. Lets head a little bit more north and areas like napa and novato all the way up into petaluma, 70s this afternoon. I was flying up there yesterday and it was breezy. You guys had some really strong wind gusts at times. At the surface level it was okay but close to the foothills and the mountains, thats where you noticed it the most. Its going to be a little bit different for us today. More on that coming up in just a bit. Luckily the winds are going to die down more down near san jose topping off this afternoon at 75 degrees and it will believe beautiful for us this afternoon. We already have clear skies over the Santa Clara Valley and well continue
