The inland parts of the bay area where daytime highs will be into the triple digits. And well have some warm nights in orange daytime highs in the 90s and also going to be looking at some warm evenings ahead of us to cloud cover for a few spots in the bail though weve been noting some sunshine making its way through 4 other areas, a couple of sprinkles offshore all associated with the tropical system. Thats brought us the humid feel along with the heat yesterday into this morning. 80s 90s triple digits. Those are your highs today even up the coast. Were pretty warm. But inland, its just downright hot conquered 107 for the high with antioch at one 06, Livermore Morgan Hill at one 04 san jose at a very toasty 99, ive got more numbers on what to expect later on today in your neck of the woods still to come james all right john thank you very much time now is 8 oh one and of course one of the big stories weve been following all week is the fact that oakland native Kamala Harris. The senator has been selected as joe bidens running mate. And we also have the school year beginning in oakland, so the join us to talk about that and a whole lot more. Is oakland mayor libby shaft michelle thank you so much for joining us again. Oh good morning and i know its a hot day but i think something thats even hotter is that biden harris ticket yeah, how about that so we had that announcement earlier in the week. Looks like so far so good a lot of the reviews about that ticket have been fairly positive. Absolutely and they should be i mullah harris is a person of such integrity and she is a fighter thats what joe biden needs by his side during this campaign and shes not going to stop fighting once they get in the white house to advance a great agenda for america, but the part people dont see about hama is just how kind and compassion that she is as a person and i hope that that shines through i hope that as voters outside of the bay area get to know her they see that side of her also ive been proud to know her for 25 years or moms were friends and i love how shes really lifting up her oakland routes as part of her campaign yeah, its it is going to say we know her well here so its going to be a string to see. Of the rest of the nation to get to know her whole lot better although she already has obviously National Name recognition with her run for president earlier in the Campaign Cycle as well. How do you think the everybodys talking about the debate between her and Vice President mike pence how do you figure that i can not wait we have we have seen her on that debate stage she is fearless she packs a prosecutorial punch. She drills down to the truth she does not suffer fools so i cannot wait to see those 2 go head to head because i think it will be very clear who the real leader is it was pretty impressive to see her on her various Senate Committees grilling. Various witnesses that were before her panels it and you certainly got to see that sort of d uh attorney general side of her really come to the forefront. Yes, but i hope that people see that other side when i met her 25 years ago she was setting up a mentoring program in oakland long before either of us had anything to do with politics. She is someone who cares deeply about people about families and especially for our struggling workers in america so i really am excited to help people seen that Kamala Harris because that prosecutor we will see plenty of her im sure. I have to ask and im loath to bring it up. But its out there already people talking about this latest effort to try and bring up birtherism again you know comma you guys have been together a long time as you said your mothers knew each other was she in fact born in oakland. On people and this is what this election is all about are we going to be a country that comes together and celebrate our diversity or are we going to just continue to put up with the hate mongering that has been coming out of the white house. I know that the bay area its very proud of our diversity of our inclusion Kamala Harris being the first black woman first asian woman first biracial woman and were so proud that she is a woman from oakland. All right, lets play a hypothetical if you if youll indulge me here for a second. Lets say the biden harris ticket wind said they become the next president Vice President. Should the governor call you would you be interested in an open senate seat. I think we really need to focus on making sure biden and harris get into that white house. Obviously id be honored to be considered but sole focus is on that election. There are lot of critical things on the ballot. This november prop 15 the schools and Communities First Initiative is another effort, im very passionate about so i think weve got to keep our eye on the prize because we need change in that white house all right i see what you did there said way me nicely into our next topic of conversation. So its kids got back to school on monday. Laptops hot spots there in short supply and some kids desperately need them so whats being done right now to to bridge that digital divide. Listen i love how oakland comes together for its families and its children and we had done an analysis earlier that showed that 25,000 Public School students did not have distancelearning tools it at home and we launched the oakland and divided campaign we raised 12 and a half Million Dollars in just 6 days. Big thanks to jack dorsey for a 10 Million Dollar contribution to that goal and of we ordered the chromebooks a while ago we were not the only city that did that so they are finally arriving this monday so excited that every child that needs one is going to get to take home an oakland and divided laptop. Theyre going to get Internet Connection tech support right in their homes, we need to keep our kids learning during this pandemic and Distance Learning is just what were going to have to do until this pandemic goes away. And i also wanted to bring up to i know part of the Campaign Cycle. Part of the social movement this year has really revolved around. Police Police Reform connecting with communities outreach talk to me about opd cares whats being done right now to try and build those bridges between the Oakland Police department and the communities they serve. Yeah well last year oakland made National Headlines when we announced a cut in gun violence in half. We can not reverse that trend we have got to keep the violence going down but last weekend was a tragic weekend in oakland with 5 homicides pd is trying to just show the community how much it cares. They turned a mobile command unit into a resource theyre riding bikes around the communities where these homicides took place and where the families and friends live just to show that we care every life lost is such a tragedy and we are committed to continuing to make this city safer and the police want to show up in a different way they have heard the calls for reform. And this department is absolutely answering them. Do you think just to bring it back to National Politics do you think. Senator harriss background in Law Enforcement you know in the in the prosecutorial sense does that give her an insight can she help effect change on the national level. She that she brought really revolutionary procedural Justice Training at the state level. She campaign for attorney general not being tough on crime but being smart on crime really focusing on prevention. But as someone who has kind of evolved and been on a journey herself. She is the perfect person to take the rest of this country on a Journey Towards a far more progressive vision of policing of Trauma Informed Care of prevent teen crime and harm and not having to clean up or punished after the fact thats who she is she has a great track record in that, but she also herself has evolved and thats why i believe she is the perfect leader not just to bring us together but to bring us along. All right and the short time that we have left to bring it up once again even though i know you cant say officially, but. If you would be open to Us Senate Seat just okay haha what you heard it here first on mayor shep. Thank you so much for joining us today. Thanks for having me 12 right now and were taking a look at the weather thats the big news today is the heat wave that were going into not fun to be talking about daria yesterday it was already hot enough today. Going to be even warmer than that by a lot going to be shattering records across the bay area come the afternoon as for this morning, its still comfortable were in the 70s right now where we spent the evening last night you can see a little cloud cover overhead still got a humid feel to it that will change in the afternoon as the remnants of this tropical system that is skirting the bay area right now begins to exit the region going to be replacing the humid and hot weather with some dry heat as High Pressure begins to build back in. So theres one plus unfortunately all the other pluses is temperatures going up which isnt so good. You can see orange out there right along the babies are heat advisories where were going to see daytime highs well into the 90s pink areas on this map are excessive heat warnings which well see daytime highs in excess of 100 degrees not just for one day but multiple days, theres not a lot of relief in this forecast ahead of us weve also got warm evenings and many of our inland areas which means even as you open the windows at night its probably not going to be as cool as youd like it to be 70s and 80s for your highs and San Francisco today, 80 in daly city and have happened pay right at 79 degrees. 80s 90s right alongside the bay with millbrae and burlingame in the low 90s today, upper 90s in san carlos redwood city and Mountain View at 96 degrees.

We warm up again into tuesday of next week back into the triple digits. Inland. 80s and 90s right along the bay and the 60s 70s and even a few 80s near the coast. James all right. Thank you very much john quick check of the roads out there this morning. Last time we looked at the bay bridge toll plaza it was nice and light that still the case here at 8. 15.

Now lets jump over to the san mateo bridge see what the right is like on 9 to 2 yeah still moving along just fine a nice friday right for you if youre heading out to the peninsula from the east bay, 92 looks like a good option for you no problems here on the san mateo bridge. In the buzz, a big disappointment for College Sports fans and athletes the nc double a Just Announced there will be no fall championships for any division, one sports, no soccer. No volleyball nothing except football because the bcs is in charge of that the acc sec and big 12 say theres still going to try to compete, but dont hold your breath because as weve seen covid is a runaway train. That can derail anything unless youre insulated by a 150 Million Dollar bubble. Thats how much the nba is spending to keep basketball players hold up in the happiest place on earth and so far its working. The corona free nba playoffs, start monday. A bubble is only as good as the players in it and they have to behave the seahawks just cut free agent rookie came a sever an for trying to sneak a woman into the team hotel. She was disguised as a player, but it didnt fool the covid cops the fortyniners love George Kittle even more than he loves jimmy g. Carol showed his love with a tshirt as you remember the niners show theres with cash 75 million to stay for 5 more years. Maybe now he can buy ger opera sure and some shoes giant cities get to stay in their own bubble, this weekend, the bay bridge series kicks off tonight. In San Francisco is the first of 6 games between them in the covid condensed to schedule which means these games are worth a lot more then bragging rights, no fans in the stands. But the uk has figured out a way for people to see concerts in person. Sam fender played an outdoor show in front of 2,500 fans who stayed at a safe distance as you can see in viewing boxes the boxes hold up to 5 people and you have to order your food in there with an app its delivered to you before and after the show you are privately assured to your car. So nobody mingles with strangers its more exciting than sitting in your underwear on the couch watching film. What you get dressed and go to the movies. If it only cost of 0. 15. I never find any change in the couch anymore and see is selling 0. 15 tickets at the 100 theaters that they are allowed to reopen next thursday now this is a one day only deal but even after that they wont nickel and dime you on the popcorn thats only in the 5 bucks through october. But you know what chief she cant eat popcorn with a mask so count me out you know, ill just stick to the county and honestly what movies are really in theaters right now and we did see yeah and they were talking about 10 and you know about this still wait for that to come so that will be like a big one, but i dont need to see a nofly zone a risk im not i welcome back still comfortable this morning. It was a hot day yesterday and weve got another hot one ahead of us today, this was your sunset last night in San Francisco. Its a nice little. Golden glow on those clouds that were still hanging on to this morning. Cloud cover will be much less evident this evening as skies really start to dry out and were going to be looking at temperatures really warming up this afternoon concord up to one 07 for the daytime high livermore in antioch well into the triple digits, too oakland down through hayward freeman san jose all in the 90s. Now even though today will be our hottest day. We dont have much relief ahead of us. This is a comparison of start to finish in the weekend in Fairfield Fairfield one 09 is your daytime high today by sunday it will be your coolest day of the week youll still be at 100 degrees. So that shows you this forecast. It is hot from start to finish. Daria.
