6:00 am
good morning, everyone. it's thursday, it's september 10. i'm frank mallicoat. michelle is off this morning. and we begin with some breaking news out of contra costa county. an early-morning fire sent 7 people to the hospital. kpix 5's kiet do joins us live from the bay point with the very latest on that fire. good morning, kiet. >> reporter: good morning. still a very active emotional scene here on anchor drive in bay point. a lot of people evacuated now. many of their homes damaged. people in tears trying to figure out and worry about what they will do next out here in bay point. now, this all began at 1:00 a.m. when a minivan caught fire in a driveway off anchor drive. witnesses reported hearing explosions and at that late
6:01 am
hour, firefighters think it burned for quite some time before anybody noticed. the fire then jumped to a house and then heavily damaged it and then spread to three more houses. a lot of folks are in bed and by the time they tried to escape, there was a lot of smoke and flames. many of them had to run past the house that was fully engulfed and had smoke inhalation. one man had burns to his back and went to the hospital. all injuries are minor at this point. contra costa county fire marshal robert marshall says the high cost of bay area housing might be a factor in all of this because when people cram into houses, they often have unpermitted construction that pushes the homes too close together making it easier for the flames to spread. >> people are finding alternate ways of living in that kind of situation so you have houses that become overcrowded and they need places to put those people so that's one of the possibilities is that they build for that reason. >> reporter: now, investigators are checking their body cameras and dashboard cameras to see if that will help to figure out what caused this fire. the fire also burned the power
6:02 am
lines above the homes and that knocked out power to the neighborhood. as far as traffic, they have reopened now pacifica avenue so really the only closure we're talking about is on anchor drive. live in bay point, kiet do, kpix 5. the hot weather an extra challenge for bay area firefighters. this brush fire broke out on oakland road in north san jose last night. firefighters worked to put the fire out. all residents nearby could just wait and watch and hope. in the end firefighters got it under control before it burned any of the homes there. the captain believes the fire started at a nearby homeless camp. and 17,000 people,000 people are out of -- 17,000 people are without power this morning as the butte fire continues to burn. it blackened 1200 acres in amador and calaveras counties. no structures have burned so far, but some evacuations are in place. power is not expected to be restored until later tonight. that fire only 30% contained. this week's heat is prompting shorter school days on some campuses in the santa clara valley. school let out at lunchtime yesterday in the campbell union high school district.
6:03 am
the plan is to do the same today with very high temperatures forecast once again. many classrooms in the district are not air-conditioned. >> the heat also affected the sports teams with practices canceled or moved indoors. the district has high schools in san jose, campbell and saratoga. did you say many people don't have air-conditioning? >> true. >> now we have mother nature's natural air-conditioning. we have the return of the marine layer affecting the coast and bay, as well. with san francisco just 24 hours ago, we were at 66 degrees. we're now at 56 degrees due to that cool seabreeze. we are still at 70 in livermore where yesterday it topped off at 107 degrees. it is yet another "spare the air" day today. the third consecutive day and it's also the third straight day that we do have a heat
6:04 am
advisory in effect away from the coast. so here's how we are playing out your numbers today. 68 degrees in half moon bay. currently we have a half mile visibility due to the marine layer. but 85 degrees in pacifica. 90s and triple digits around the peninsula into the santa clara valley. east of the bay up to 107 degrees again today livermore also danville blackhawk and pleasanton. 103 in concord as well as clayton and pinole. 80s in stinson beach, triple digits in sonoma and santa rosa and napa and we'll see again today 104 degrees in ukiah, 100 in windsor. we have relief inland and we'll talk about that in less than 10 minutes. good morning, liza. >> good morning, roberta. no relief for san francisco commuters where we have been watching the "sig alert" still in place for northbound 101 just before 280. that's where a pair of lanes are shut down and traffic slow approaching the scene. it's backed unbeyond 3rd at this -- it's backed up beyond 3rd at this hour for the next
6:05 am
45 minutes. three cars were involved in this accident. and there are injuries reported. now in terms of traffic you're going to want to take 380 over to 280 as an alternate. also getting first reports of an accident beyond this picture here. westbound 80 before west grand approaching the bay bridge toll plaza. one lane of traffic shut down there. you can see from these live pictures it's very slow at the pay gates. already backed up beyond the 880 overcrossing. that's a look at your "kcbs traffic." now to frank. california democrats have scaled back a bill aimed at curbing climate change. the governor is angry about the pressure that oil companies are putting on lawmakers. >> climate change is not some little, you know, issue of a governor or anybody else here. this is an existential threat to your children! >> governor pretty fired up. the bill had called for the state to cut its use of
6:06 am
petroleum and gasoline in half by 2030. that mandate was dropped after it fell short of the votes needed to pass. >> we are going forward. the only difference is my zeal has been intensified to a maximum degree! and nothing, nothing! is going to stop this state from pushing forward on our low carbon fuel standards and our cap and trade and our electric vehicle mandate and all the rest. >> also yesterday, negotiations over proposed gasoline tax increase collapsed because of a lack of support from republican leadership. how about some football? it's kickoff day for the nfl regular season and that's a special treat for the fans right here in the bay area. anne reports from justin herman plaza. >> reporter: this is cool for even nonfootball fans. check out the stage that has been set up. there's going to be a big concert this afternoon. it is free. it is open to the public. a live pre-game concert right

6:08 am

the way to a nightclub when their hummer limo went up. everyone got out okay. video shows the limo burned up. time is 6:09. we are learning more about the woman accused of jumping off the bay bridge to avoid police. and why she was willing to take such a huge risk. >> and recent heat wave is making for an even tougher year in wine country. the impact of the unusual conditions coming up. >> did somebody say heat wave? yes, it is a prolonged heat wave. i'll share with you which areas will be hottest again today. >> and it's like looking like rush hour at the bay bridge toll plaza where there's an accident in the clearing stages and big-time delays in san fr,,

i really need all of to you take a look at this and then put your hands together and let's say, oh, yes! it is the return of the most welcome marine layer. that marine layer is cooling down our coast and some areas around the bay today. but we do have temperatures still topping off at 85 degrees in san francisco. 92 across the bay in oakland. up to triple digits around the peninsula. full forecast in a few minutes. new documents show a richmond woman who allegedly escaped arrest by jumping off the bay bridge was allegedly drunk at the time. erlynn sanchez-edwards appeared in court yesterday. the chp says she and two other prostitutes crashed a stolen car on bridge last month. the woman had allegedly been drinking. sanchez-edwards jumped 70 feet into the bay below trying to avoid police. cost of a transit project in san francisco is going almost a quarter billion
6:14 am
dollars above initial estimates. the "chronicle" newspaper says the new estimate for the transbay transit center is $2.1 billion with another $244 million expected to be added. it's not clear yet how that extra cost will be covered. this week's intense heat in northern california is forcing winemakers to speed up their harvest. kpix 5's andria borba reports out of napa where the effort to pick healthy grapes is now in overdrive. >> part of wine making is a little bit of -- is a lot of perspiration and a little bit of ingenuity. >> reporter: in the sun, the perspiration factor has been high in the napa valley this week with downtown reaching a high of 103 degrees today, the harvest already under way, has hit hyperdrive. the goal, no grapes overripening on the vine. >> we'll be at about 95% of our harvest by the end of the week in a few days. and we are about 50% a week and
6:15 am
a half ago. so we brought in quite a bit in a short amount of time. >> reporter: at the vineyards in napa harvest on the 20 acres they own and the 100 they contract out had been happening for a few weeks already. >> with the onset of the recent heat spell, put us a little more on alert. >> reporter: and that meant long days and night in the vineyards with the sun and triple-digit heat to avoid sour grapes. >> when the fruit is ripe we pick it regardless of whether it goes on our schedule or not. >> all these skins are floating on top. the wine is underneath. >> reporter: this crate of grapes is already fermenting and bound for the barrel and then the bottle. >> smells like black cherry and rhubarb pie and cherry cola. stephen colbert having fun

6:18 am
maze. once you pass this mess traffic does okay across the bridge heading into the city. no delays as of yet for i-80 heading through berkeley and emeryville. and we do have an improving situation now in terms of street closures. we are hearing from kiet do that pacifica avenue is now open between anchor and port chicago highway. it had been shut down for a period of time because of that fire in bay point. ainge con shut down for one block near port chicago. -- anchor shut down for one block near port chicago. it's live it's our kpix 5 weather camera atop our studios in san francisco looking due east towards the bay bridge. we have a few clouds out there. and we have the return of the marine layer along the immediate seashore hanging very, very tight. that's why in san francisco, we are down to 56 degrees. and again just 24 hours ago, we were at 66 degrees. so that's what a seabreeze would do for you. it's cooled san francisco down a good 10 degrees. we are still at 70 inland. it is yet another "spare the
6:19 am
air" day the third one where we have a heat advisory in effect. it includes 6 million people, 1 million at the seashore and in san francisco have a break from the heat due to the return of a seabreeze. otherwise, hot inland. we do have relief in sight away from the bay. but that will not occur until at the end of the weekend. now, this is the return of the low clouds the patchy fog along the coast. you started noticing it and making an approach at 10 a.m. so it has put a dent in the half moon bay forecast at 68 degrees today. otherwise, high pressure a huge bubble that continues to encompass the northern half of the state. the remnants or the blowoff from hurricane linda caused some rain showers across the southern california area yesterday. very hot and humid there. we'll see increased levels of humidity by sunday. and until then, 85 in pacifica. 85 san francisco. 92 oakland. 90s and triple digits around

6:31 am
to get these flames under control, they were massive flames that all began around 1 a.m. when a minivan caught fire in a driveway off of anchor drive. witnesses reported hearing explosions and at that late hour, firefighters think it burned for quite some time before anybody noticed. the fire then jumped to the house heavily damaged it and then spread to three more houses. a lot of people were in bed and by the time they tried to escape there was a lot of smoke and flames, many having to run past the house that's fully engulfed and had smoke inhalation. 7 people were injured, four taken to the hospital. one man had minor burns on his back. all the injuries were described as minor. contra costa county fire marshal robert marshall says the high cost of bay area housing might be a factor in all of this because people often cram into houses in the neighborhood. they often have unpermitted construction and that pushes the homes too close together making it easier for the flames to spread. >> people are finding alternate ways of living and so you do have houses that become overcrowded and they need
6:32 am
places to put the people. so that's one of the possibilities is that they build that way. >> reporter: the flames are intense. they burned the power lines above and power is still knocked out to the neighborhood. and we are seeing traffic loosen up here so it is flowing once again here in pacifica avenue. still closed on anchor drive. kiet do, kpix 5. all the hot weather bringing fire fears. this brush fire broke out on oakland road in north san jose last night as firefighters worked to put the fire out. all residents nearby waited and watched. in the end, firefighters were able to get it under control before it burned any homes. the captain believes that fire started at a nearby homeless camp. and the sizzling temperatures have hundreds of south bay schoolkids heading home early from school. classes ended at lunchtime yesterday in the campbell union high school district. the plan is to do the same again today with the very high temperatures forecasted one more time.
6:33 am
many classrooms in the district are not air-conditioned. the district has high schools in san jose, campbell and saratoga. let's check the weather. we'll have to have the heat for a couple more days. >> i emceed and event last night. [ indiscernible ] >> it was a great event. we in san jose for stop hunger now to feed people. we packed 7,000 meals last night. >> oh, my gosh. >> wasn't that great? in san jose it was 95 so it was 10 degrees cooler than pleasanton. >> so you got some relief. two hours sleep last night. >> it was worth it. take a good look this. isn't that great? >> yeah. >> that is ocean beach right now. totally socked in with the marine layer. as a result, temperatures in the mid-50s in san francisco. it's still 67 in san jose. it is 70 in livermore. today is yet another "spare the air" day here in the bay area. for the third straight day we have a heat advisory in effect until 7:00 tonight away from
6:34 am
the immediate seashore. so this encompasses about 6 million people here in the bay area that will feel the temperatures well above average. in fact, we are still going with 58 degrees in pacifica today but 68 degrees in half moon bay where we have been socked in with a layer of low clouds so therefore visibility down to about a half mile. 90s to triple digits around the peninsula today. 104 morgan hill and in gilroy which we had a record yesterday of 104. it was 107 in livermore on wednesday. today, same. triple digits around the tri- valley. 102 pittsburg all the way through clayton. 80s around stinson beach to triple digits in sonoma and 103 cloverdale. relief inland, i'll tell you when to expect. here's liza. no relief for san francisco drivers where we have been watching this accident and it's still out there in the clearing stages north 101 just before the 280 interchange. two lanes of traffic are shut down as they work to clear up this accident. looks like some sand barrels were damaged in the crash so
6:35 am
expect delays beyond candlestick approaching the accident scene. continue to use 380 over to 280 as your alternate. meantime, in the novato area, there is an accident south 101 just beyond san antonio. you can see it is causing delays now backed up into the petaluma area. and it has been a tough morning for the altamont pass. still backed up solid beyond the 205 interchange. in fact 205 is backed up from 11th and that stays steady through livermore, pleasanton approaching the dublin interchange. so slow going there. and also outside of the immediate bay area just keep in mind in los banos westbound 152 at dinosaur point one westbound lane shut down because of a wildfire so traffic is backed up for five miles approaching the scene. police say they have a suspect in a case of racist graffiti in san francisco. they arrested this man, 62-year- old john schenone tuesday after receiving several tips. anti-chinese messages appeared at 6 locations on monday
