He says overall the Health Care Delivery system is at 8 of capacity while the state is now testing nearly 100,000 people every day. We want to power local leadership to make informed decisions but we also want that information to be made public the message should be very clear anyone coming into the state of california. It is subject to the mask mandate. And the guidelines that we have put forth but at this moment, were shutting down our border. To other states. Now while the numbers show the california is not experiencing the serious increase like neighboring Arizona Governor newsom says for now hes not requiring 14 day quarantines from arizona or any other state. The governor is urging californians to remain cautious and careful during this stage of covid19. Well happening today in just about 90 minutes, the White House CoronavirusTask Force Led by Vice President mike pence well be holding its first Public Meeting in nearly 2 months. This comes one day after the u. S. Saw the most new reported cases within a 24 hour period and also comes as President Trump appears to push for less testing. Now earlier this week doctor Anthony Fauci told lawmakers that he has not spoken to the president and about 2 and a half weeks. The white house has not said if doctors fauci and deborah birx will be at todays briefing. We shall see the meeting that suspected to the begin at around 9. 30 and well bring it to you live on air safely now to a developing story were following this morning. Its a new chapter in the war of words between President Trump and oakland mayor libby shaft the mayor firing back at the president after he criticized the city of oakland during an interview last night kron fours reyna harvey has been checking out the twitter feeds of both politicians and has the latest for us reyna. And marty quiet right now, but let me tell you oakland got a shout out from the president last night and it was not what you expect it to be very critical about oakland. A couple other major cities in this country we actually have a clip. We can play for you take a listen. Take a look at detroit take a look at whats happening in oakland. Take a look at whats happening in baltimore, and it really gets upset when i say and they say oh is that a racist statement is not a racist. Frankly. People come up to me say thank you thank you sir for saying it. The citys its like living in hel. In that statement rub their shaft the wrong way she took to twitter to say a hells another 4 years of this race is in the white house in quote hashtag vote hashtag lech shuns matter now the Trump Administration of mayor shall have a history. The vocal on their disagreements. Most recently on immigration you might remember back when former attorney general Jeff Sessions accused mayor schaaf of not prioritizing the safety of oakland when she warned the community about immigration and Customs Enforcement operations that she had learned about which the Trump Administration says stifled their operation again marty like a mention of in check and both of their twitter feed this morning, the president in response to the mayor of oakland statement, but again still fairly early by 8 oclock a 10 oclock on the east coast, the air. So again well be monitoring twitter and well bring you more as soon as we learn of more for now reporting her oakland raider harvey kron 4 news all right rain will be waiting for an update, thanks a lot for that report from oakland robin. All right saying in the east bay people in crockett are shocked after a black lives matter sign was defaced the black lives matter sign on come owner street was found or if so it reads lives matter instead. The sign went up weeks after George Floyds death and this is not the first incident where its been defaced crockett resident, joanne suh boy says it happened 3 times. This statement that the person who is repeatedly defacing the sign has made is not only do we not support the black lives matter community, but you are not welcome here weve been engaging as much discourse is possible. But you know in a strange way the debasement of the sign has really prompted a lot more people who probably wouldnt speak up. Im to come out and voice their opinions and to share you know opposing believes so its been constructive as well. Well theres been numerous protests in downtown crocketts supporting the black lives matter movement. Some residents hope that this will spark an open and peaceful dialogue. Well a mobile Crisis Response program will soon be on the streets of oakland. Its modeled after a Similar Program in eugene oregon. Thats where a mobile Crisis Response team operates 24 hours a day every day. A team is made up of 2 people a medic or emt and one person who has experience and Behavioral Health counseling. Now they are not Police Officers they are not trained in policing and they do not carry weapons and over the past year, the city of oaklands Police Commission has been laying the foundation for oaklands version of that program called macro. I am concerned that we do have to continue to respond to those 911 calls and a scathing grand jury report just came out saying that oakland is not doing a good enough job. Well oakland city officials anticipate beginning the program as soon as this fall. Still ahead this morning, one east Bay School District has made the tough decision to not have students or teachers on campus come this fall, well have details coming up. Behind the wheel driving test the dmv have resumed after months of being postponed. Coming up after the break well tell you when we closed our doors in march, wynn committed instantly to keeping all 15,000 team members onboard. We then focused our fivestar level of service to all who needed it. We made improvements to peoples lives. We strove to be better and we made people happy. This closure may have temporarily taken us out of wynn and encore, but it couldnt take the wynn and encore out of us. And now, we are proud to welcome you back. Well happening today despite having reported a significant jump in covid19 cases, Santa Cruz County beaches will be reopening to the public want to go live now to kron fours will tran who has everything you need when you head to the beach that is the hat the shades of sunscreen and the mask, i will. I tell you what marty this will be one heck of a tan line, but thats the price you pay right, this is 2020 nothing is normal not even laws because. Now you can legally head to the beaches and the key word is legally because its technically shutdown up until midnight. 7 oh what a little more than 8 hours ago. But so many people ignored it that the county said forget about it were fighting a losing battle says that the santa cruz. Down here this morning in fact weve got video of it. This is them at 6. 15 in the morning. Coming down here removing the signs that told people that they could not be at the beaches between 11 oclock in the morning and 5 oclock in the afternoon because they want to slow down the spread of coronavirus Police Officers during that 2 months shutdown theyre walking the beaches trying to tell people they couldnt be here reminding them that they could face up to a 1000 fine the people just like that them went about the business stayed on the beach that the Police Officers and other authorities in santa cruz they were just overwhelmed by that. So thats why they decided on thursday marty just go ahead and shut it down as far as the signs get the signs out of here reopen the beaches. Santa cruz county now officially is the last santa kind last county in california Beach Community that is allowing people to head to the beaches. So now they join like everybody else and whether you are for it or against it the numbers dont lie so i guess you have to give them a little bit of credit because as far as coronavirus cases marty they are significantly lower than other counties in california and in the bay area. 337 cases since this started about a 106 active cases and 3 tragic deaths, but 3 deaths are significantly lower. In other counties throughout california. So now a lot of people are saying marty well just have to wait and see how the numbers whether they stay the same or jump because we do expect a lot of people to jump back in the water jump on the beaches, especially with the warm weather so they will be monitoring the numbers moving forward back to you. And well after spending some hours at the beach you can now wear that mask tan line with a source of pride. You know you could say lifes a beach, although it would be funny to smile of his and yet his line it comes down here you have a great and marty i i just have a horrible dancer to be all block city.

Saturday night here comes the civil system dropping south and behind it so cooler air and were going to feel that on sundays public could be the coolest and the bunch that were going to see in the sevenday forecast future cast winds. We get the inland heating its going to drive those winds going on Solano County in Contra Costa County as well. There you see the numbers the highest and theyre going to remain hires somewhat breezy if you will all overnight into saturday morning. Well have that were to the fog return tomorrow morning yet again across the bay and because of the mild winds. We have this morning were not getting a good mixing job yet as the shot in the bay bridge toll plaza and still the sun coming up over the east bay hills it is we just cant see it from this Vantage Point so that heat spike we talked about last call just about over here Solano County until saturday at a just a formality.

And the 4 zone forecast for now checking the area traffic robin tell us at all right, lets head over to the bay bridge toll plaza where the Early Morning commute traffic is out of the way it lasted maybe a couple of hours. But now you dont have to worry about a backup. Its smooth on the upper deck until you get over to the skyway and then as you emerge from 80 south one to one. Theres a nasty little backup there because of an accident once again thats emerging from a t to south one oh one heading out of San Francisco, its all clogged up. All right, lets take a peek at another bridge. We have 92, its still busy its been busy all morning. The busy does not mean bad its a little congested west of the tolls but overall this is considered the norm its under 30 minutes from the nimitz to the bayshore rd. All right robin thanks. A lot will happening today the california dmv will begin again with that behind the wheel driving test with some health and safety modifications and of course those tests as you know has been suspended since midmarch because of the pandemic kron 4 Sarah Stinson has been watching the line grow a dmv in daly city she has the latest for us and while there are a lot of folks out there sarah. Marty what a line its a good day for unlicensed drivers because they can finally get that behind the wheel test, but i just heard one of the dmv employees going across the entire line asking who needs to take the behind the wheel test, not one person is here for that right now a lot of people here trying to get their real id. Some people here trying to get their commercial license a written test. So that sort of been hearing so far but lets take a look at the new precautions that will take place during the behind the wheel test according to the dmv all test applicants will be required to wear a Face Covering an answer Health Screening questions before the test even begins temperature checks will be out and to safety protocols Officials Say due to coronavirus concerns to windows will be lower throughout the test to increase ventilation and examiners will spend more time outside the cars suc
