Will cuts create the oakland people want and so desperately need . Radical left will you shut up man . Weve seen this before. But this time, will it be different . Mute buttons and no audience for tonights president ial debate. The president and his predecessor weve got a preview. I could see that girls needed a safe space to play.

Tens, tens tens across the board and if you know you know. What a great get. Im very excited about that. Im Shawn Chitnis in for gianna franco. Im reed cowan. Its a Beautiful Day and a nice way to start the day by thinking about all things rainbow flag. Right . Absolutely. Were looking forward to pride weekend but we want to start with a developing story this morning. Lets take a live look at this warehouse fire thats burning now for about eight hours in oakland. Possibly with roofing material inside. This is at wood and 24th streets on the west side of town. The fire broke out around 10 00 p. M. Last night at the Pacific Supply warehouse and its near a homeless encampment along interstate 880. Firefighters say the flames started burning outside and then spread to the building. Exact cause and point of origin are still under investigation. The fire went to three alarms overnight and there you can see why. With about 70 firefighters on scene and at one point crews on the roof and inside the warehouse trying to evacuate as the fire became more intense. Heavy smoke prompted warnings to nearby residents to stay inside and keep their windows closed. Firefighters say they have now managed to keep the fire from spreading to an adjacent yard that holds additional roofing materials and the Fire Department said on social media this fire is contained but not yet under control. They will stay on scene through the morning one of many things to monitor. The smell of the aftermath from the fire so before you get your morning walk or roneoed i want to check in with jess. Shes looking at your air quality alerts. Absolutely. I smelled it over in San Francisco this morning. Across and the bay bridge. The first thing i did actually before even finishing my walk with my dog was checking my tap to make sure what is aqi and what is going on and whats the story today. Is it a wildfire . Whats happening in our local community . And im sure many people are asking those same questions as they head outside this morning. Especially off in the east bay. For the most part, were dealing with green on this map when it comes to our aqi but in the localized spot just in oakland alone, yes, were still in the unhealthy and very unhealthy category and just local communities there. So we are going to continue to keep a close eye on this in the next couple of hours. Head over to the Golden Gate Bridge real fast and look at the Clear Conditions for the most part. Visibility at in surface level is great and were off to a cool start this morning. 50s in the forecast right now near San Francisco and across the bay bridge into oakland all throughout the east bay and for the friends along the coast too. A little bit cooler for the friends up near petaluma and santa rosa this morning. Grab the jacket before you have head out. Over real fast a beautiful sunrise behind me over the bay bridge as we wake up this morning. Later today were in the 70s near oakland and 60s near San Francisco. So a beautiful setup into this afternoon with mild weather in the forecast for us today. Were wrapping up the week right around the corner and as we do that, well, were gearing up for a bigger heat wave thats coming next week. So enjoy this weather while we have it. Well have triple digits off in the inland areas right around the corner so 70s down in san jose, not that bad. If you want to do any Outdoor Activities today. More on that in a bit. For now over to you. All right yes, sir thanks so much. A look at roadways right now. Getting ready to take any of the bay area bridges this morning, heres what you can expect as you take the bay bridge. Metering lights are on for our westbound commuters. We are starting to see those gummed up conditions at the toll plaza so its slow there. Here now a clear view of the Golden Gate Bridge. No fog for our commuters coming out of marin county. And it is also clear on the roads. No delays here. So should be a nice drive as you make your way into San Francisco this morning. Reed . From that live shot to this one. A live look at oakland where city leaders are considering a major budget shortfall and they have a painful reality to face. Theyre talking about cuts. So with crime a major concern for the east bay city, the possibility this morning, folks, of cuts to police and fire services. We know you feel that with a great deal of pain. And by the way the clock is ticking. The city council has to pass a budget by tomorrow. So the mayor wants to sell the citys stake in the Oakland Coliseum but if that doesnt go through, plan b. Is that millions of dollars in Public Safety cuts. So heres the breakdown. 26 million potentially slashed from the police budget. What would that do . That would mean a freeze on hiring for 78 sworn officer positions and were also told a freeze on two police academies. Andrea nakano has reaction from members of the police union who say it feels like at least from a policing standpoint, oakland is at a breaking point. Reporter Bishop Bob Jackson with the acts full Gospel Church sees the impacts of crime every day in his community. It really hit home when he received this terrifying news. One of the young men that are that go to the church i pastor, he went to the movies last night and coming out of the movies he was shot and just the grace of god he was not killed. Reporter when he hears about potential cuts to Public Safety, he worries about how much worse crime could get. Law and order has to be restored in the city of oakland. The lawlessness is just gone too far. Reporter according to the Oakland Police officers association, there are two scenarios, one would trim the force down to 678 from 712 officers or all the way down to 628. I cant see a solution on how we can even effectively handle crimes and respond to calls in our city. Reporter opoa president nguyen argues. When there were 50,000 fewer residents. Asking what is difficult for a Police Officer to work here . Its difficult for citizens to live in the city. And thats the question that we have to ask our citizens. At what point is enough is enough . Reporter thats a question that Bishop Jackson contemplates frequently. Hes demanding elected officials at city hall make the city safe. We have to have Public Safety and it has to be priority one. If your city is not safe, its not safe to live in your home, its not safe to go to the store. Not safe to go to the movies. My god. Why are you living in a city like that . Reporter with mayor sheng thao fighting for her own political career, Bishop Jackson doesnt have much faith in the current leadership to get the job done. Absolutely, positively unequivocally not. Reporter the deadline to get the budget done is july 1st. But theres a possibility of extending that deadline if an agreement cannot be reached. All right, so lets get to the other potential cuts. Freeze of five Engine Companies and the Fire Department equaling more than 19 million in cuts there. Now think about that. Oakland firefighters doing battle with the fire we started this broadcast with, they worked all night facing cuts. Firefighters tell us closing even one station there could spell trouble. We have reached a Tipping Point where we are almost unable to do the job that the citizens of oakland expect us to do because we are so busy. And so overworked and responding to so many calls. So making that even worse by closing stations will have catastrophicfects on the citizens of oakland. Wow. So now you see why the plans to try to sell the citys stake in the coliseum is seen by quite a few as a way to at least plug the holes. Oakland city owns half the land and many see the sale as crucial to avoid a total of 60 million in cuts. Who would buy it . Theres a deal in the works with the African American sports and entertainment group. Negotiations we understand happening as we speak but we dont have a timetable about a deal even closing. The former city manager dan lind haim says the real budgets problems are systemic and the onetime relief of the sale of the coliseum is just kind of like a bandaid. I dont begrudge using the coliseum money. If its part of a plan to buy time and were going to do x, y and z moving forward. But if you just going to balance the budget by selling the coliseum, and not do anything else, then you are just kicking the can down the road a year. And then you are in a real disaster a year from now. All right. So that said, remember the budget deadline is tomorrow. But we are hearing that the city council has the ability and just very well might do this. They could give themselves five extra days. So tough time in oakland. Lets put this into perspective. Fbi raid on mayor sheng thaos home and new this morning, revelations about the u. S. Postal service involved in those very raids. So what does that mean . Coming up in our next half hour, our da lin investigates. All right, reed. Time now for a look at this mornings other top stories. Tonight President Biden and former President Trump will be on the debate stage. They are going headtohead inperson for the First Time Since october 2020. Both men have agreed to a set of rules from cnn which is hosting the debate. Each mic will be muted when its not his turn to speak and no studio audience. The 90 minute debate from atlanta is likely to focus on prominent issues such as immigration, the economy, abortion, and the wars in ukraine and gaza. We will have a live report from atlanta coming up at 6 30. Now to the Supreme Court. Yesterday we got a preview of a draft opinion in an Abortion Case mistakenly posted on the website. Bloomberg spotted it before the post was removed. But if its for real, it means the high court will rule that emergency abortions in idaho can resume if a Womans Health is at serious risk. And what appears to be a 63 vote, it would reinstate a lower court order. Back here in the bay area, police in union city are investigating a shooting inside the Century Movie theater. They say a fight broke out in one of the theaters and a person fired a gun. One person went to the hospital with nonlifethreateni ng injuries. Police say the person who opened fire got away before officers showed up. Reed . Thank you so much. Time right now 6 11 in the morning. Trouble for a family owned business in San Francisco.

So lets look up from the top of Salesforce Tower and thats looking over towards mount tam up in the north bay. Its picturesque and i mean you can say that. We bring in Jessica Burch right now. Listen, the bay area is just like a postcard book, you can flip the page and have a sunny landscape and then the next you have the fog. Everything here in the bay area and you are right and that was over the fog kind of crawling its way into the bay right now. This is underneath it and you can see the Golden Gate Bridge still at the surface level visibility is fine. Yeah its a little bit breezy right now. The flag waving in the wind. That cloud layer is sticking around for us right now. And were going to continue the see that throughout the next couple of hours and lets talk about the winds though. We already mentioned that wind kind of just breezy close to San Francisco. Were currently at around 20mileperhour wind gusts and it die down a little bit just into 10 00 hour and gets gustier into the evening hours tonight. This is around 3 00. Breezy conditions up near bodega bay close to around 35mileperhour winds at that point. And we see that consistency into the evening hours tonight. But lets drop this real fast and lets dive into whats happening for us today. We have a beautiful sunrise right behind me, this is our live cam here at kpix from the rooftop. Here in San Francisco, where daytime highs today are sitting in the 60s. All the way up into north bay we go, we have 80s near santa rosa and we cool down a little bit the more south we go near petaluma and novato into the 70s today. Were holding on tight to the 80s in the east bay with 70s from redwood city over into fremont and more of the same down into the Santa Clara Valley. Now as we head into the next seven days we have some changes in the forecast for us. Lets start off with our inland areas and we have plenty of sunshine and a lot of warmth as we head into next week. Lots of sunshine too. And were going to compare this to yesterday. Yesterday we were mid 80s and then we jump in the mid 90s as we head into the friday forecast. We kind of flirt back and forth with 80s and 90s heading into this weekend as early as saturday into sunday. But that High Pressure system is going to roll in fast and thats going to heat us up a lot as we head all the way into next weeks setup. Thats also going thats the big reason also dealing with 80s in sight for us all throughout monday and tuesday just near San Francisco and oakland.
