talking more about exactly what to expect for the day today and the rest of the week too. all still to come, reyna. tom, thanks for that. unfortunately, we do have an accident on the bay bridge right near the toll plaza. 80 westbound. this just happened. so again, if they're able to get this cleared off of the bridge will have much of a problem if they're not, we could see a major delay here. so we're going to be close eye on that right now, though, as you travel into the city. a little under 12 minutes. 5, 1880, moving along very nicely as well, heading across towards the peninsula. no issues here. if you're leaving your house heading there. a little under 13 for you to be able to make that drive in the south bay still pretty nice and light 29 minutes traveling in the park to to also looking nice 8, 18 6.80, as well. and we'll check out and leave the richmond. sandra fell bridge with you as you're heading across towards sandra fell a little under 8 minutes. starring james, back to you. thanks a lot of 6 o'clock in the breaking news from overnight. a woman was shot while driving on. i 80 in the

chp now trying to figure out if she was targeted. >> or not. crawford's will trend live at the chp with the latest this morning will. >> we do know that she is alive despite her car just riddled with bullets. it's about 7 hours into the investigation. and so far right now they don't have any arrests to get back to the public. >> let me show you the video you will be amazed that anybody could have survived this. >> but she did. this is around 1045 last night. she was traveling westbound on. i 80 going through vallejo right around redwood street right around that exit area when all of a sudden shots rang out. she never lost control of her car where she slammed into other cars. she was able to be treated at the scene as best as they possibly could before taking her to the hospital. and at last check she is still alive at this particular point. even with all those cars on the road at that time and i 80 is busy. they have no

description to pass along to the public about this shooter or shooters are no motive behind this. they don't know if this was random. if it was road rage or in fact, she was targeted. but the bottom line is if you're going through that area at this time. yes, they had to shut it down for quite some time to collect evidence and talk to witnesses. but i drove through that area a little bit earlier and it is clear, but what is not clear is why did this happen in the first place. very little information about the woman. obviously that's still private, but they don't believe at this particular point that she started this this chain of events where the shots ring out. but again, the investigation is very early. we just had to change the ship to now try to get more information from the chp headquarters. it was this headquartered here that rushed to the scene to take care of the woman back to you. all right. thanks a lot. we'll. >> time now is 6. '02 and less than a mile away from that freeway shooting vallejo

police are investigating a deadly shooting that happened last night was a long fairgrounds drive where police responded and found a man had been shot and killed. we don't have any information about the victim and the police say they haven't made any arrests yet. the chp says that it does not appear that the freeway shooting and the shooting of the man who died here. they say they don't appear to be connected. >> 6. '03 is the time and another big story this morning. we could be just hours away from the fda officially approving pfizer's coronavirus vaccine rather than just using it under this emergency use authorization is could open up a whole new set of directives in terms of people being. >> required to get vaccinated. felicia bolton has more. when the fda first issued emergency authorization for pfizer's covid-19 vaccine in december. >> millions of americans celebrate. for them what they thought would be the beginning

of the end of the pandemic. >> what's now and son. but for some, the emergency authorization was viewed as potentially reckless kaiser family foundation data from december of 2020 shows 39% of those polled said they want to wait and see before receiving the vaccine as of june. the number was down to 10%. new kff polling shows that 31% of unvaccinated they would be more likely to get a vaccine that's received full fda approval that number climbs to nearly 50% among adults who previously said they wanted to wait and see. some people even the individuals who gotten vaccinated have been scared about. >> the effects of this emergency approval for the current vaccine. so i think for a lot of people they are having a healthy sense of skepticism and waiting for that approval from science. and while many may soon choose to get vaccinated. others may not be given an option according to surgeon general doctor murthy full federal

approval of pfizer's covid-19 vaccine will empower businesses and universities to require vaccinations. i think you'll see more universities and workplaces that were considering putting in requirements for vaccines to create safer. >> places to learn and work. you'll see more of them likely moving forward on their plans to require vaccines in the workplace and school that change could be a welcome adjustment for parents when students too young to receive the covid-19 vaccine. phil classrooms around the country for the start of a new school year. if you're thinking what will happen to you. >> it will. you know, and better to be wise and be smart about it protect your health and take care of yourself because and take care of your family. >> that was felicia bolton reporting federal regulators are still reviewing moderna's application for full approval. that decision could come in several weeks from now. >> well, speaking of the

vaccine happening right now in the south bay, there's a new mandate that's going into effect for thousands of city employees affected this morning in which they have to either be vaccinated or succumb to weekly covid tests workers who don't comply could be placed on unpaid leave. kron 4. sarah stinson has the latest from san jose. >> hi, sarah. >> hi there. yeah. this mandate applies to thousands of san jose city employees. that includes firefighters like the ones in the station behind me police department. everybody librarians anyone who works for the city has to have proof of vaccination or they have to get that weekly covid tests so that starts today. a mandate that hopefully will make those who haven't gotten the vaccine may be will make them feel a little better now that we're on the heels of fda approval of the headed in the next couple of weeks. now. this mandate also includes employees still working from home. they still have to provide proof of vaccination

by today or submit that weekly testing results or they have to go and or unpaid leave. >> city officials say this is an effort to stop the delta variant from spreading santa clara county currently averages, 242 covid cases a day last month. the county was seeing only 47 new cases a day and right now at least 78% of people who live in this county are fully vaccinated santa clara county and san francisco. they've already issued vaccination and testing mandates for their employees. and jose unified school district. also announced last week a vaccination mandate for teachers and staff. the city of san jose says if an employee chooses to go for the testing room will be given one hour pate hour during their shift to go get that test done. and if they don't do that within their shift. well, they do not get overtime to complete that test. that's on them so we'll how this goes. another mandate. requiring employees to get the vaccine for now reporting live in san jose. sarah stinson back to

you, ok. thank you very much. sarah. 6. '07, and another big milestone in california is a covid battle state health officials. >> announced they have administered 500,000 vaccines for the 3rd straight week, almost a 55% mark of eligible californians now are fully vaccinated. the moraga police department, however, the latest to have a covid death. one of their officers died of covid after a month battling the 58 year-old moraga police officer has died. his name corporal kevin mooney and he died over the weekend. he joined them. the pd and 2013 after 21 years with the contra costa county sheriff's office. >> well, in the north bay marine county held a mass vaccination clinic offering a booster covid-19 vaccine for people with weakened immune systems forcefully call reports now from sandra fell were 100 showed up for their 3rd shot. >> immunocompromised marine

county residents jumped at the chance of receiving a 3rd dose of a covid-19 vaccine. >> hundreds rushed to the marin center exhibit hall in sandra fell saturday where marine county public health partnered with safe way to administer the shots. we didn't wait. not one bit. my wife's in line right shuns with medical conditions like cancer hiv or take medications that suppress their immune systems are considered at higher risk of getting infected with covid-19 and suffering severe illnesses. that includes adults of all ages. we want to make sure that we're offering the highest level of immunity we can to this a 3rd case is going to accomplish that for them. the public health department says a 3rd dose provides adequate protection better when was approved last week by the food and drug administration. if one is already had 2 shots and it's worked out well. >> getting the 3rd shot is hardly a risk and has potentially great benefits overall about 95% of the

counties. eligible population has received at least one dose of a covid-19 vaccine. i think it's offered. it's a 100% important with be able to see people often but also knowing that we sell social distance and if you are not able to make it out to this clinic, not to worry. it will return here at the same location next saturday. >> in sandra fell phillipe djegal all kron 4 news. >> well, amid the surge in covid cases across the bay area. apple now is delaying its return to the office. apple workers now won't be returning until january apple stores, though, still remain open. masks are required. facebook has already announced a similar plan where workers won't be returning until january as well. we'll take a break here at 6.10. coming up next on the kron 00:00am morning news. >> in san jose. hit and run death. tell you what police know about the car. they're looking for it. and as the situation grows more dire in afghanistan. president biden now saying the u.s. is stepping up efforts to evacuate as many people as

>> it's 6.14 right now. and let's talk wildfires. the biggest of the fires burning in california right now is the dixie fire which is burned more than 724,000 acres containment is at 37%. so a little bit better when it comes to the firefight. but those flames are threatening 10's of thousands of structures still. and more than 1200 structures have already burned down and that includes 650 homes lost in lassen county, mandatory evacuation orders have been dropped for the areas of clear

creek. westwood and pine town and then there's the caldor fire. there's the one southwest of lake tahoe, a 104,000 acres has now burned containment is only at 5%. this has been going for a week now and strong winds to that made the fire jump over highway 50 over the weekend. so got closer to homes. plus it is closed down a 46 mile stretch of highway 50. that's closed in both directions. sly park road and the 5089 roundabout and myers. you can't get through there and they haven't said when they reopen at the fire has already destroyed over that area. the town of grizzly flats. at least 328 structures have been destroyed and another 13,000 are still in harm's way. >> well, the bay area air quality management district now issuing an air quality advisory for today. and this comes as well. we still have smoke from those wildfires lingering here in the bay area

skies and since some of the video was shot recently showing the pollution levels now it isn't expected to exceed federal health standards. so no spare the air alert is in effect, but that advisory is so you're being recommended. if you have respiratory issues to avoid being outside as much as possible. again, it could be a little difficult for you. >> yeah. yesterday was a little better what friday and saturday. not. so it looks like thankfully because it's not as bad. we won't have a spare. >> the air alert, john. so a touch better yeah. it's going to be a lot like yesterday today, we're still going to be looking at some moderate pockets out there. >> but honestly, what most of us will be holding on to is the blue skies much as we did see for your sunday. so we've enjoyed this backing off of the haze also getting a little bit cooler over the weekend. we're going to keep that trend going into today as well. you look outside this morning at the exploratorium show. some low gray. it's nice to know that what you're looking out there this morning is just a marine layer that we're seeing having pushed in from the coastline and for the most

part, this is being associated with some much cleaner air that's pushed in from the west too. looking at your air quality map. the worst of smoke is definitely centered. well, up to our north. there will be pockets of green on this map indicating that moderate air quality, especially for the north bay at times this afternoon that will show up in air quality advisories across the bay area. really just something to know for most sensitive groups. most of us are going to be looking at much improved conditions today and inviting one to be stepping back outside. i'd still keep the workout going in out indoors. but you can definitely get out there. at least run those errands and enjoy some of the sunshine winds from the coastline will continue and actually intensify into the afternoon. this not only filter some cleaner air of in. but it's also going to heap our daytime highs. pretty moderated. that means our inland areas not too terribly hot for your monday 60's for your city is right along the coastline 70's for most of our bayshore areas millbrae at 72 burlingame. 73 redwood city

and san carlos tonight 78 south bay temperatures also mostly 70's san jose 79 for the high freeman through hayward. same range of numbers mid to low 70's really comfortable even under warmest our inland areas only in the 80's danville at 84 degrees today. vacaville 87 the meantime, napa sonoma santa rosa only in the 70's. so really comfortable start to your workweek tomorrow and wednesday are going to keep the comfortable weather around and for the most part, at least some improved air quality that all changes into thursday and friday we see high pressure building back in. this is going to result in hot temperatures climbing well into the 90's and triple digits inland and also some seeking still air which is likely to push them hayes back in your forecast. so enjoy what we have over these next 3 days and prepare for a less than ideal finish to the week. reyna. john, thanks for that. we had a few accidents to tell you about like this one in the south bay one. oh, one northbound. >> that all of rock avenue.

thousands of afghans desperate to flee have gathered as taliban fighters block access to flight state offices heartbreak. we are working. >> diligently to make sure increase the ability to get them out. changed the gate operations, whole range of things. this is one of the. >> the biggest debacle. but on abc's this week iowa republican senator joni ernst said the u.s. should be doing more to get evacuees to the airport. the taliban needs to understand quite clearly that we have the right to get our american said sun's out of afghanistan. >> and if that means we need to escort them to our airport to get them out, then we will do so. >> and on nbc's meet the press republican congresswoman liz cheney called the entire operation. a mistake and says withdrawal has created a new national security threat, terrorist organizations that want to attack the united

states now have an entire country as a sanctuary from which to do so. president biden, however, is pushing back against that criticism in fact, yesterday. he says he believes history will show that he made the right call as far as terror threats. he says the u.s. closely monitoring all threats. >> and anyone who was being evacuated from afghanistan is being first transported to a 3rd party country to be vetted in process before coming to countries like the u.s. as refugees for now in washington. raquel martin, back to you. thanks for count them. >> time now 6.22, coming up, a mountain lion sighting on the peninsula. we're going to have a look at more of this video showing the big cat. we'll be right back.

things will be ok, but if you know you have some respiratory sensitivities today is one to maybe think twice at least before you get out there for the job. take it a little bit easier with the work out indoors for most of us today is going to be a-ok big improvements in general as far as winds go. it's calm this morning. winds do pick up later on today. but that's going to be really welcome. the sea breeze is going to help to keep temperatures nice and moderated well into the afternoon. one of the reasons today is going to be one of our coolest of the forecast 60's at the coastline, including most to san francisco. where is the bayside cities will mostly be in the 70's burlingame at 73 san carlos and redwood city each at 78 south bay temperatures anywhere from the mid 70's and sonny bill milpitas to the low 80's in saratoga morgan hill and a few other spots freeman through hayward in the 70's, pleasanton and livermore each 83 oakland on up the richmond only in the 60's. even some of our hottest spots, not hitting the 90's today vacaville only

minutes for your drive time heading across towards the peninsula. no major delays. a little under 14 minutes for you to make it there. and in the south, a legal just 30 minutes heading towards menlo park to 85 a 2 looking nice at this hour. let's check out things along 6.80, if you're traveling dublin to fremont to 62 will take you just 15 minutes. the slowest area this morning is along highway 4 and the altamonte past. so give yourself more time if you're traveling there daryn. james, back to you. >> let's talk football forty-niners got a win in the pre season against the la chargers let's get to the highlight show you what happened. niners defense. actually they were the first ones to put points up on the board after sacking the chargers quarterback there in the end zone. >> that was good for a 2 point safety. then in the 2nd quarter, niners rookie quarterback trey lance getting his chance to shine areas connecting after a couple of good plays there for that 5 yard touchdown throw and that was right before halftime. and then he shined again in the 2nd half 3rd quarter. here's another touchdown pass and

that was good enough to seal the win. 15 to 10 niners with the win in both lance and head coach kyle shanahan shut down any questions about perhaps making trade. the starter in week one. >> is proper your starter week. one. >> no well making that announcement. let's try whenever i feel not it's time to start this summer wondering whether you're going to be starting quarterback. we >> just focus on getting better. learn as much as i can. >> yeah. easy. he thinks about 0, 0, tiles. just focus on connecting. and he did so it's good to see him get more acclimated with the nfl play. >> the niners are going to well, actually, they're going to be playing again next week. they're getting ready to host las vegas raiders. that will be next sunday at levi stadium. that game will kick off at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. >> sort of reminiscent of the bay bridge series even on that raiders are in the bay.
