KRON KRON 4 News At 8am July 12, 2024

That fire dangers of concern as temperatures begin to climb back up into the 90s and in some cases, even a couple of triple digits. Temperatures right now look at these Half Moon Bay at 81 degrees saint helena there too. These are not anomalies but these are some of our windy areas that that air is getting mixed in and youre also seeing really dry conditions in these areas and its that pairing of a windy dry and hot that does have fire concern so high even during these Morning Hours more starting things off warm enough already by the afternoon. Its just downright hot with upper 90s inland, mid 90s by the bay and solid 80s near the coast by robin. All right john lets check in on the traffic, the only issue we have on 92 is the Maintenance Work thats underway to its not in the commute direction, its actually eastbound. So theyve taken away one lane which leads to its a tight squeeze, but no major delays it will just be a little congested approaching this closure right before the toll plaza. Once again thats only on the eastbound side keep in mind we see crews out there Maintenance Work in construction on the roads even if its a emergency crews are chp always slow down through that cone zone west 92 looks great heading to the peninsula. This is our second wave of heavy traffic heading into San Francisco this morning about an hour ago it was completely clear so the late rollers are coming in its stacking up the on west grand 14 minutes and growing into San Francisco. But we are hot spot free back to you. Thanks a lot and lets get back to what is happening now the genie is in the process they say of restoring power. To the bay area neighborhoods that had it knocked out because theyre worried about fire danger but still there are thousands who are waking up without service this morning and knocked out on purpose, those are the areas in purple, the plate, the portions of the bay area where pg and e. Selectively turned off the power because the high fire danger and everything a lot of the peninsula hills still impacted by thats mainly the higher elevations. Were also looking at the areas in and out ball of the foot hills the Altamont Pass and then as we slide towards the north bay. The only other region thats impacted widely is the hilltops there along the napa and sonoma valleys to you can see all those areas in pink and purple power still off but hopefully. It will be restored sooner rather than later well the hours have been taken by this morning with kron fours will tran in napa. Hes been waiting along with everybody else. And have you seen any neighborhoods turn on yet. The lights are on thanks to Mother Nature, a lot of parts of al all of hill lane in this particular area without power some have some dont it just depends on which side of the street. You live on so pg and e crews are busy right going around restoring power. But that takes looking at the power lines to make sure that theyre not damaged and then they will turn on the power which takes some time the goal is to have it by the end of today have you live in calistoga if you live west of the napa river you are waking up without power because they take away power to that location to prevent wildfires. Calistoga has been battered by flames over the past couple weeks couple years. If you live east of the napa river in calistoga theres a good chance you have power because of the microgrid system which they put in place a couple years ago through the works of pg and e to keep Emergency Services on like Police Departments, fire stations and hospitals so it just depends on where you live the bottom line is pg needed this over the past couple of days to prevent wildfires and as many as 51 to 53,000 people impacted including judy Judith Woodard here you are walking along thank you for stopping by and talking to us. You have power. But because of a generator right. We installed a generator at the beginning of this year we have a home with so well. And so if you dont have electricity dont have anything powering pumping water. You can get along you know with lanterns and extra water and so forth but its tough to live in house with no water and youve been without power for 2 days from p wednesday night about 6 oclock and all day yesterday and i thought this morning that local newspaper said we should have power back by 6, but no power. How frustrating is it i know i talked to some of their fellow walkers this morning and they said that. The trade office at least we have clean air know wildfires right now the air is beautiful today and its been good for several days. I think the frustration for a lot of peoples we also dont have any internet. We shouldnt be related. But apparently is and so you kind of cut off from communication. No one has will not know when that those of us without power also dont have comcast and i think some people who still have power also dont have all internet whatever service you use we happened to use its been a t well fingers crossed that you have your power restored and get back to the new norm a lot of people did say that its the lesser of 2 evils its terrible not to have power and internet but look at how beautiful the morning sky is so thats the tradeoff. But its going to take some time because pg e the last thing they want to do is prevent a wildfire and then start one accidentally meaning that theres a power line on the ground that wasnt prepared they turn on the switch and then theres a wildfire, so its going to be a painstaking process. But the bottom line is the goal is by the end of the day. Also by the way i want to tell you that when we just interviewed she was a reporter at chron about 40 years ago, 40 years million but i have 40 years ago wow alright small world all right thank you very much well ready years ago, she says she later yeah, well find out what he the Trump Administration by the way has rejected californias request for a major disaster declaration following several large wildfires. The request was issued for 6 different wildfires the creek fire being one of the biggest ones out of fresno county. The state says its going to appeal the administrations decision. This action was the second of 2 disaster declarations requested by the state in about a month. The first one was approved, but again the second one declined. 18 days away now from the election and we are your election headquarters last night President Trump and democratic challenger joe biden held competing in very different town hall. They did indeed the candidates were grilled on much of the same topics coronavirus came up of course the Supreme Court health care the economy. But yes, very different responses Dean Reynolds gives us a look. The second debate was scrubbed after the president hell miss and his refusal to participate in a virtual debate with he and mister biden in separate remote locations so he was on nbc at the same time his opponent was on abc i just go all the time they did you take us the doctor they give you a perfect answer yet to take a test and i leave and i go about so i just did you take a test on the day the needed and i took the test day before and the day before and i was always in great shape over on abc mister biden was pressed on the issue of Court Packing it becomes president. He said it depends on how the current confirmation process of judge Amy Coney Barrett is handled. If i say thats the headline tomorrow and wont be by much going on now the improper way theyre proceeding dont voters have a right to know where they do have a right to know i stand i have a right to know where i stand before they vote the former Vice President also offered what he suggested would be a stark contrast between a trump and a Biden Justice department. Combined Justice Department do is let the department of justice be the department of justice. The judgments. Who should be prosecuted they are not my lawyers. Back on nbc. The president was pressed to disavow White Supremacy and then specifically those who believe the socalled queuing on conspiracy with its contention that democrats are running a pedophile ring which only he can come back i just dont know about you and you to know i dont know you i dont know i dont lets waste a whole you start off with White Supremacy i denounce as you start off with Something Else lets go keep asking me let me just to do what i do hear about it is they are very strongly against pedophilia and i agree with that and the president was asked as well about his reported outstanding loans of 400 Million Dollars. Seeming to confirm the figure. Im very 100 leverage fortunately, but im very 100 leverage. I have a very very small percentage of debt compared check some of it i did his favors the institutions wanted to loan you 400 Million Dollars compared to the ashes that i have all of these Great Properties all over the and frankly the bank of america building in San Francisco. I dont love whats happening just Million Dollars office confirming that yes we some 400 Million Dollars saying is that its a tiny percentage of my net worth.

Robin all right. Thank you john lets check in on the traffic picking up in some areas getting heavier and others were starting off the drive to the richmond sandra fell which is back at the limit so we had a minor accident. The traffics backed up almost to castro and now were back to being delay free so an easy 8 minutes to the north bay here the bay bridge were experiencing are second wave of heavy traffic nothing going on we had a minor accident which was quickly clear that was over an hour ago and the traffic just is still very sluggish. Its even back to west grand and through the tolls and up the incline the overall drive time looks really good because its only 11 minutes into San Francisco and once again no hot spots for crashes working. Now once you make it into San Francisco, theres some heavy traffic on the northbound central the whole stretch of the northbound central freeway is just crawling right here from the james like all the way out to city streets so be prepared for that. But the skyway and the james slick and 2. 80 all look good. Its just the central freeway thats tied up. No other problems struck
