Unfortunately in fact for the first time in 3 months Public Health officials saw more than 60,000 new infections. Across the country for about 3 days in a row now cases are increasing in almost every state and at least 16 people now are reporting more than 10,000.

California we could find ourselves back in the trouble zone. My advice is to minimize risk at all times that means not getting lots of people together from lots of different pods if you will from lots of different bubbles. Just try to have as much of the south side as possible. And cranky people separate so that if you have you know 2 families there have 2 tables. Were looking california. Now the weather cooperates we kept things going outside think of the east coast. A recent study projects an additional 167,000 people could die by february. The study also indicates that we can cut that number in half if we all wear masks.

The president criticizing bidens plan because it includes a government option for health insurance, he want socialized medicine and its not that he wanted his Vice President , i mean. She is is more liberal than bernie sanders, but biden is standing by his plan emphasizing Health Care Reform the difference between the president i think health care is not a privilege, its a right. Everyone should have the right to have Affordable Health care this is something thats going to save peoples lives. From the president ial debate in nashville. Im greg hurst. Time now is 5. 13 still ahead on the kron 4 morning news, a pregnant woman is shot and killed in the east bay well talk more about that plus Scott Peterson back in court this morning and then lastly a fire burns dangerously close to homes in oakland, well have more on all these stories coming up in just a minute dan back to the weekend today and were going to be looking at conditions out there today a little cooler than they have been some 50s for a morning temperatures by noontime and 60s and 70s. Thats where were staying into the afternoon to a lot cooler. We were to start this week. Ive got your forecast ahead. And were checking out the morning commute around the bay area still tracking a crash here on to 37 east of lawrence expressway well have a complete traffic check coming up after the break. I 60 right now friday so nothing can go wrong. I dont know what the weathers like and well im particularly looking forward the weather this weekend because its cooling down a little bit was already pretty chilly coming out the door this morning to notice i was colas i asked john. Yeah, i know feeling really chilly last night and conditions out there today are going to be even cooler than they were yesterday afternoon so were working our way into much more fall like pattern now as we make our way into this upcoming weekend which is certainly a nice change of pace from the heat and the dry conditions that we had been saying unfortunately were still in the midst of some windy weather ahead of us and we are also still in the midst of some really dry weather just the way it looks is different than where we have been saw get into that in just a second. We do have some low cloud cover sitting over berkeley, this morning, nothing clears to views that weve seen from berkeley but we are looking at overall some pretty good driving conditions, most your bridges are doing just fine and we are seeing light winds this morning we are just looking at a couple of windy spots up an upper elevations up towards lake in northern solano and napa counties so we work our way into the afternoon winds do pick up but not enough for red flag warnings to go into effect for most of the bay area today nor into tomorrow we that we do have another breezy finish to the day your saturday. Its sunday into monday that all eyes are focused on because we are seeing the potential of quite the wind event just around the corner. Winds will be picking up to some of the most substantial that theyve been all year long and really in drought drying in some dry air from our inland valleys out towards the coast humidity is going to drop to some very low levels come sunday night into monday and with winds as strong as theyre about to be some concern for fire danger as well just falling to breeze branches and trees such as that a San Francisco atlas peak napa hayward and bill well be looking at widespread wind gusts into a 30 to 40 Miles Per Hour range come early monday morning. So that sets us up for an entirely new set of advisories on your map red flag warnings are holding on for areas like lake and mendocino counties just off the top of the camera there. What youre seeing in gold for the rest of the bay area these will take effect sunday into monday and are high wind advisories likely to become high Wind Warnings by the finish of the weekend as we do look at these strong winds right on the horizon. Its due to this low pressure area that is pushing on in and drying in with us some very cold and dry air from the interior out towards the bay replacing any sort of marine layer with very dry conditions. It will be cool and dry this time around as opposed to the hot dry winds that we are accustomed to seeing this time of year. Now as for today a cooler day than yesterday was some 60s for your daytime highs in San Francisco, as well as elsewhere right along the coastline, daly city at 62 pacific at 61 60s to 70s right along the bay shore today with san bruno at 66 millbrae a nice 74 70s continue further south on the peninsula and into the south bay where daytime highs today really nice and comfortable sonny bill and i 74 campbell at 76 east bay daytime highs 70s for you from the bay shore. All the way to our inland areas only to low 80s left on the map today, one is in walnut creek right at 80 degrees while 60s in Oakland Berkeley and richmond the other 80 degree mark today that will be in vacaville 80 degrees as well elsewhere in the north bay temperatures mostly in the 70s until you get to the coast where youll find some 60s and even 50s in Stinson Beach temperatures over the next 7 days we will be in the upper 70s on average inland today, but look at those low 70s, especially come sunday and monday thats when that really dry and cool air starts to push in temperatures next we do begin to rise again bayshore areas also in for a nice cool down this weekend as will be the coast with low 60s expected through the weekend for a coastal and or bayshore areas so nice fall conditions as we make our way through the start of the weekend and then do watch sunday night into monday as winds pick back up.
