6:00 pm
law says it doesn't matter, both parties are obligated to file damage reports if someone is hurt or if the damage exceeds $750. the other driver filed an accident report. mirkarimi, however, did not, nor has he paid the $55. technically he was allowed to drive only to and from work. a half hour ago we got a statement from the sheriff's spokesperson. he said when the accident occurred he contacted his insurance company and was told everything was in order. he's looking in to the error in the paperwork that led to the mistake. the sheriff says the accident was simply a fender bender and that there was no damage to his car, but there was some to the other car. he also traded information with the other driver. democratic presidential hopeful bernie sanders was in the bay area to pick up a very big endorsement. sanders has gone from a relative unknown to one of the hottest names on the
6:01 pm
campaign trail. kpix 5's phil matier is in oakland with why a big union says sanders is their choice for president. >> that's absolutely right. and this is sort of a stunner because just a couple months ago it was bernie who? and now it is bernie. hey, this might be something. >> reporter: as campaign boosts go, it was about as big a bumpup as bernie sanders could have hoped for. the 187,000-member national nurses united through its endorsement for the little known senator from vermont over the big name in the race, hillary clinton. >> that we endorse doctors, medicine, not in the profits of drug companies who make every public college and university in america tuition-free. telling wall street they are going to
6:02 pm
have to take their fair share of taxes. >> it's attracting thousands of supporters like this rally in portland, oregon yesterday. >> it shows he's got the unions with him and that's important in terms of overall strategy. it gives you a whole big base for moving forward. >> reporter: and hillary clinton? >> why bernie and not hillary? >> because bernie is not owned by the corporations. >> you bailed out wall street. ceos in the major financial institutions are doing better financially today than they've ever done. it makes no sense to me that a kid with marijuana can get a criminal record but people who destroyed the economy get away scot-free. >> the bernie sanders is a guy that touches a nerve just like donald trump does. a lot of people who are angry or fearful about the future. >> reporter: and what does sanders think about the comparison between himself and the trump? >> i'll let his mother explain donald trump. i can't.
6:03 pm
>> and while the senator may not like the comparison between himself and his republican counterpart, both have tapped in to a vein in the american political scene and that is the want for somebody to speak plainly, somebody to just go out there and tell it like they see it and not be incumbered worrying about how it might show up in the polls or with their fundraisers. that's what's making both of the democratic and republican races very interesting at this point. thanks to what happened here, it's going to get even more interesting. in oakland, phil matier, kpix 5. google doing a sweeping overhaul of its corporate structure right now. it has resulted in a brand new parent company called alphabet. new at 6:00, allen martin explains. >> google co-founder said the company may be doing well but this new setup will allow google to run cleaner and more accountable. this is what alphabet will look like. it includes google which will
6:04 pm
continue to oversee youtube, android, as well as the search maps and apps businesses, but separate is the research company calico along with fiber and google plus and nest. you'll still use the website as a search engine or for e-mail. >> what this is is building a separate company to allow the co-founders of google to start managing a broader set of companies underneath them. now they're able to have stuff like these whacky science things they're doing, not distract the people of google but instead be separate companies unto their own who can do the same thing. >> the same executives who run google will be in charge of alphabet. the company will begin reporting financial reports by segments giving a clearer picture of how google's
6:05 pm
core business is performer. those who have stock in google will receive one share of alphabet for every google share they own. google stock up more than 6% in afterhours trading. so it makes it more flexible. they can buy, sell. >> we treat them like separate companies and maybe down the line you can spin them off at some point. slowly taking over the world. if your commute involves the richmond san rafael bridge and you think traffic is worse than ever, you're not imagining things. juliette goodrich joins us with what's going on. >> in the morning it's bumper to bumper. in fact, last month 1.3 million drivers passed this toll plaza to head in to marin county. it's a five-year high. and even though traffic is pretty bad, it means the economy is pretty good. >> reporter: nathan su is a
6:06 pm
chef at kamikaze restaurant in san rafael. product developer boykin. >> it's been very stressful. >> reporter: and retailer trish. >> it's congested. >> reporter: all share one thing in common. they share the richmond san rafael bridge and they share the frustration of an increasingly long commute in to marin county to get to work. >> you can gain road rage very easily. >> at this point i started riding my motorcycle so i can cut the traffic down. >> reporter: in 2011, 12.2 million vehicles crossed the bridge in to marin. in 2012, 12 .4 million. in 2013, 13.2 million vehicles. last year up to 13.8 million. so why do commuters put up with a congested and oftentimes aggravating commute? >> the jobs are better. you get more benefits here. a lot of people are commuting from east bay to marin and other
6:07 pm
counties. while many people like to work in marin county, they can't afford to live in it. >> over here is very expensive. >> reporter: trish says her commute from vallejo to san rafael is an hour and 3 minutes. >> i timed it because i'm so bored in the car. >> reporter: there's a plan to help traffic flow by opening a third eastbound lane on the lower deck but don't expect that till 2017. >> what's interesting is the bridge initially had three lanes when it was first built in 1956. they dropped it back down to two lanes because traffic was so light. things have certainly changed down the road. in richmond, juliette goodrich, kpix 5. want to get you to breaking news out of solano county. a fire burning on travis air force base property is now threatening homes. it started along creed road and highway 12 and jumped to solano county property. we're looking at live pictures right here. this fire is at four alarms. we're going to

6:09 pm
in here, they need to be able to get a foot hold on the fire. because the flames are quickly approaching and the fact that firefighters need to use these roads to get in, we've been asked by one of the firefighters to go ahead and move out of the area for our safety and the safety of the firefighters. when we re-establish a connection, we'll bring you back another live shot. reporting from the jerusalem fire, joe vazquez, kpix 5. >> winds are at their peak of the day right now. 20 to 25-mile-per-hour gusts. you saw those flames blowing left to right. that's a southwest to northeast flow. east of the fire is where that fire is heading right now. take a look at our graphic. temperatures not as much of a concern. the afternoon highs for the next couple days will only be in the 80s. it's the wind. morning wind gust s are 10 to 20 miles per hour. that's somewhat manageable. in the afternoon that's the problem. the next several afternoons we'll see peak wind gusts of 20 to 30 miles per hour and near the fire itself we'll likely have locally stronger gusts. so the wind will not help. now a new fire coming up in lake county with
6:10 pm
winds 20 to 30 miles per hour tomorrow and wednesday and thursday. we'll talk about our local weather and when we may hit 100 coming up in a few minutes. so much of the state is so dry right now. let's talk about that other fire, the rocky fire for a second. 85% contained tonight. that's very good news. more than 69 ,000 acres have burned. that is bad news. 43 homes destroyed and crews expect to have that fire fully surrounded a little later this week. two businesses are a total loss because of a fire early this morning. coming up, the scary moment for people living nearby and how it spread so quickly. >> and scrambling for teachers ahead of the new school year. the length that some districts are going to just to get the positions filled. positions filled. >> repairs now to avoid big,,,,,

6:14 pm
market which is where the police chief believes it started. the medical supply company right next to it is also heavily damaged. one of the owners of thrifty medical supply company says it's been around for 30 years and his family bought it in 2006. >> it's devastating. definitely is. we just hope -- we heard everyone is already so that's the most important thing. >> reporter: he jumped out of bed and drove here as soon as he heard about the fire. he had a hard time watching his family business get destroyed by fire. red tags are now outside the building and investigators are here trying to determine what started the fire. in san leandro, lisa chan, kpix 5. >> this is a fire that destroyed a home in oakland. this one started 4:30 this afternoon on 72nd avenue. investigators say the home was being renovated and they think a homeless person may have sparked this one. two ajacent homes were damaged when power lines came down. one of them has so
6:15 pm
much smoke damage that the homeowner has been temporarily smoked out. a dozen children are bloodied and bruised after a wreck in the east bay. this shows the multi-car pileup. the children were on their way to a field trip in oakland. four of them had to be taken to the hospital for treatment. two of the drivers involved in the crash went to the hospital as well. this car fire sparked a grass fire this afternoon in the south bay. it was alongside highway 101 near north mckey road. you can see how close those flames were coming toward the houses. they closed the southbound lanes for a short time. in the end the fire was contained. no homes were damaged. a los angeles man arrested here in san francisco after knocking a police officer unconscious at the outside lands music festival. police say zachary holland tried to rush past police to get in to the festival without a ticket and he knocked down an officer who fell
6:16 pm
and hit his head on a cement block. he was briefly knocked out. holland was eventually caught. the officer was treated and released at the hospital. in addition to holland, nearly 80 people were arrested for trespassing. three people were arrested for alcohol violations. there is no arguing, it is as dry as a bone right now in the bay area but the national weather service and our weather team right here at kpix both predicting that we're going in to an el nino winter. len ramirez with how that is creating a boom for one particular business. >> that's right. when home one-- homeowners hear the words el nino, they immediately think how's my roof? they'll pick up the phone to try to get a roofer, but the question this year is will they get a roofer before the rain? >> reporter: roofing crews are having their days in the sun. but they'll stay this busy right in to the rains of november which this year could go on and
6:17 pm
on because of el nino. >> we're at three times our typical capacity. >> reporter: yale proctor says it's been the busiest summer for roofing in 25 years. >> the light switch turned on in early july. so obviously with el nino being on the way, that's probably the biggest single push. >> reporter: the national weather service says there's now a 90% of an el nino this winter and an 80% chance it will last until spring. it's a warming of ocean temperatures that could bring heavier than normal rain. >> the threat of el nino i think is also scaring people to get that roof taken care of ahead of time. >> reporter: roofer dan roseta says people are now finally trying to get it done. homeowners who have not yet booked a job may be out of luck. >> the chances of us getting all is probably going to be slim. we are very, very busy. >> reporter: ro setta says there
6:18 pm
are other factors at hand too. the improving housing market and the el nino. it's shaping up to be the roofing industry's perfect storm. >> we're building enough roof but there's not enough workforce to get to all of them when the calls come in in such a large amount. >> len ramirez reporting from the south bay. open space near a marin county neighborhood will not be mowed despite the potential fire danger there. the pacheco valley open space used to be mowed regularly when it belonged to the gannett corporation. the district says it has no plans to cut down that tall grass despite concerns from neighbors. it said it made no promise to maintain the land because it played no part in the locally run campaign to acquire the property. it was once the pride of the south bay now the mighty guadalupe river is actually disappearing, drying right up. and with it the wildlife it supported. san jose
6:19 pm
preservation ists worked hard to revive the river but birds, fish, and beaver are now seldom seen in the area. conservationists say it's one of the casualties here in california. >> we need an el nino. >> i can't imagine a scenario without one, frankly. at least normal rainfall, normal snowfall this winter. keep your fingers crossed. though every sign is pointing toward a strong el nino, it's not a guarantee. nothing in weather is a guarantee. so keep your fingers crossed for a couple more months. it's august, the heart of our dry season. it was dry but also cooler today. you hit 88. danville, 84. fremont and richmond very comfortable. ocean beach only 64. let's talk about el nino. back in april it was barely crossing the threshold for a weak el nino. in june we made it to moderate. we get new information every monday and look at that, a
6:20 pm
deviation from average of nearly 2 degrees celsius well in to the strong cat egory. if there's any leading indicator for rainfall in the winter it would be el nino. things are at least looking very, very favorable that perhaps around thanksgiving and there after we'll finally see a normal or wet winter. next couple days it's all about an onshore flow. a northwest flow, still an onshore flow but a little bit drier. we tap in to a southwest wind and yes, it does get much cooler and much cloudier. we felt that today. we dealt with that today. we'll have it tomorrow and wednesday and thursday. a big strong ridge of high pressure moves in. the heat will be on starting friday and over the weekend we may see inland highs approaching 100 degrees. if you like it cool, the next couple days are for you. we'll be cooler than average. san jose tomorrow, beautiful day. 79. concord, you hit 80. napa, 78. and san

6:24 pm
schools are going to just to fill teaching positions. >> reporter: san francisco needs a lot more teachers as the school year approaches. >> there's no way any of us are going to be able to afford a home in this city. >> reporter: that's true of most professions. and it's not new. >> the reality is there's bip bip -- been a teacher shortage for years. >> now we're not alone. >> oklahoma public schools is in a serious pinch. >> reporter: it's so bad, some schools are hiring novice teachers until they can get veterans who are leaving in droves. >> in the past few years the job satisfaction rate has plummeted. >> reporter: lin dang is leaving san francisco schools just after two years. >> teaching is a very powerful job and we aren't appreciated the way that we should be. >> reporter: loves the kids,
6:25 pm
hates the pressure of standardized tests and the relatively low pay. you might hear this story and say to yourself, how can there be any out of work teachers these days? it depends on what they teach. english, history, social studies. they've got enough of those. special ed? >> with in about a month, although they're all brand new teachers, they found jobs. >> reporter: bolegds -- bolds worked in it. >> your options are to be a teacher or go work for a tech company making potentially significantly more money. >> reporter: would all this change if we appreciated teachers like we do athletes? the way comedians pictured it? >> $40 million incentive based on test scores. >> reporter: probably. mike sugerman, kpix 5. >> and it's not likely to get better any time soon. the number entering teaching programs is actually down 30%
