You see something . I am trying to save this. Its all computer based. We are ready to go, steve. You ready . You sure . You sure . Lets do that thing that i like. Ready . Lets do it. Do it. Love it traffic authority. Westbound 80 as you head towards the carquinez bridge from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze, that traffic there is looking pretty good. There are no major problems. 27 minutes is not a bad time. Its average. Average speed 43 miles per hour. When you get to the bay bridge toll plaza, you will see that traffic is backed up for a 20 minute delay. No major issues as you drive through. Getting word of a new crash in San Francisco along northbound 101 approaching caesar chavez, and i am going to see, if we can go to the maps, some of the road sensors starting to get a little bit slow, at least to believe that there is indeed something here. We will follow up on that. 7 02. Lets go become to the desk. We will start with information thats new this morning. More about that grassfire that started in the east hills of east san jose. Janine de la vega, youre in san jose with the very latest on the fire. What do you know now . Reporter dave, fire captain told us that they think this may have been started by fireworks. They did find a roman candle nearby, and they took it from evidence. Here you can see behind me some of the land that is just charred here. This is four miles up sierra road. Its high above the city of san jose. This is what it looked like earlier. The fire was reported 2 30 this morning. When firefighters arrived flames were burning on both sides of the road. They say it was a slowburning fire, but it was moving downhill, and that caused concern because houses are down below and so is allen rock park. 70 firefighters from san jose and calfire worked to extinguish it. They got a handle on it by 4 this morning. Fire Officials Say the fire looked suspicious because its all open land and you need a heat source. This area here, there has been fireworks activity up here, you know, before 4th of july, after 4th of july. So when you have a fire moving very slowly, as this one was when we got here, having to jump a wide road like that is unlikely. Reporter fire officials will look into that possibility. They dont know if somebody was playing with fireworks and this accidentally started, but fireworks are illegal in san jose and for the most part for this very reason. Its dangerous because there is so much dry vegetation in the hills and in other areas. Anything can spark a fire from a cigarette to a lawn mower. Fire Officials Say had this fire happened during the day when it was hotter and when there was wind, it could have spread easily and it may have become a threat to the homes and the park below. There are firefighters still here on the scene. There is a crew watching it because every once in a while we can see a little smoldering coming from the ground. Thank you. We will check back later. To the north bay where firefighters up in novato are still trying to determine what caused a fire that broke out in a twostory home yesterday evening. The Department Posted this picture of the fire.

The big announcement expected to be made at 11 00 eastern time tomorrow morning. Donald trump saying the field of potential running mates has been narrowed. The question now, what is trump looking for in a Vice President . Somebody thats very good. Somebody who is solid, who is smart. I am not looking for an attack dog. If you were following your twitter feed, donald trump tweeted out he will be announcing his pick 11 00 tomorrow morning in manhattan. He says details will follow. The top contenders seem to be new jersey governor Chris Christie, indiana governor mike pence, and former House SpeakerNewt Gingrich. The point he made at the meeting to all of us was only one person knows who is gonna be the Vice President , and that person doesnt know yet. I am honored to be on that list. Pence and gingrich are both seen as choices that could appeal to the republican establishment. Since dropping out of the race, Chris Christie has become a trusted advisor to the trump campaign. There may be a clue in the list of speakers for the Republican Convention next week. That includes Newt Gingrich and Chris Christie, but not mike pence. Of course, the pick for his vp going to set the tone Going Forward for november. Who knows who he is going to pick, really . Right. We have narrowed it down. But he has been such a loose cannon so far, it could be somebody even off the board. This campaign has been full of surprises. More to come, i am sure. Christien kafton thank you. 7 07. With those possibilities being discussed this morning our question of the day is, who do you want to see named as Vice President . And this goes for either candidate. Will that sway your vote . Post a comment on our Facebook Page or tweet us. Officials in cleveland, ohio, say they are ready for the Republican Convention. It starts monday. Security is top priority.
