canceled the summit over what he called hostile comments by north korea. we have live team coverage tonight. ktvu's cristina rendon with what the experts say today's developments could mean but first, to washington and fox news' lauren blanchard with more on the president's announcement. lauren. >> reporter: after nearly two hours with a north korean official, president trump announced the summit with north korea he canceled last week is once again happening. >> we'll be meeting on june 12th in singapore. it went very well. it's a get to know you kind of a situation. >> reporter: that major and unexpected development coming out of an oval office meeting with a high level north korean delegation today. originally, kim yong-chol was there to bring a letter to president trump from kim jong- un. >> this was literally going to be the delivery of a letter and it ended up being a two- hour conversation. >> reporter: in fact, mr. trump actually made the announcement before reading kim's letter. this comes just 11 days before
6:01 pm
the summit was supposed to happen. before president trump canceled it with a letter of his own last week, citing hostility from the north. >> the president issues his famous letter, call or write me, and sadly, democrats dismissed this as being infantile. it has proven to be very visionary. >> reporter: but some outside observers say a one-on-one meeting between the two leaders will be the real test. >> the key question is, what is going to come out of this summit? what is going to be the agreement? the administration has been right to push for full denuclearization by north korea. but it's not entirely clear whether north korea and its leader are going to agree to that. >> reporter: today's visit was also unusual because negotiator kim yong-chol is on a u.s. sanctions list meaning he is not even supposed to be allowed into the country. but today he made it into the oval office as kim jong-un's hand-picked emissary to help broker a deal. and the white house tells us the president has opened that letter from kim jong-un but no details on what it said.
6:02 pm
frank, julie? >> the whole process has been unusual. lauren blanchard live tonight in our nation's capital. thank you. and now to ktvu's cristina rendon. you spoke with an expert about the impact of today's developments. >> reporter: yes. earlier on "four on 2," we spoke with professor doowan lee senior lecturer in monterey. he predicts the north korean leader will try to prolong this negotiation process but he says if you think about this from a deterrence perspective, it makes sense that both president trump and kim jong-un want this meeting to happen. >> i think we need to separate the meeting from a potential denuclearization deal between north korea and the united states. the reason being, north korea has really no reason to keep up its ultimate trump card as
6:03 pm
a form of coercive diplomacy and because i think trump really needs a national security win before the november elections, i would hypothesize that this summit will go on but i would not expect any grand deal coming out of this summit. >> the professor noted that kim jong-un has been pro- active in recent weeks with meeting with other world leaders and is trying to use his nuclear weapons program to find the best deal possible. of course, it is still unclear what the result of this summit will be. but for now, this meeting date is back on for june 12th in singapore. >> thank you. >> stay with us for continuing coverage as this story develops. we are posting the latest in all our newscasts and on facebook, twitter and ktvu.com. happening now, preparations under way for a combination political rally and a religious revival in berkeley tonight. frankly graham is bringing his decision -- franklin graham is

montana, idaho, texas, even new mexico. in the san jose studio, jesse gary, ktvu fox 2 news. >> if you own a home it's great, good for you. if you are a renter, eh, not so much. >> it's so hard here in the bay area. >> but it's beautiful. speaking of beautiful, the weather was beautiful. it's been a roller coaster lately with the wind and the cold weather but it's heating up again. >> it's been a roller coaster all spring but you're right, it goes from cool to warm to cool and now we have gone from -- i don't know if you remember yesterday it was cool. today before that was really cool and windy. 50s and 60s? >> it's not a bad pattern. i think the fires are on the windy day, i think the fires were put out quickly because of the high relative humidity and cool temperatures. so lower temperatures. so we have had sort of this on- again, off-again warmth and heat and it lasts. it keeps going.
6:48 pm
so it's going to warm up in time for your weekend and cooling down in time for monday and tuesday. not cold but just 70s and mid- 70s in the warm spots. this weekend, the warm spots are going to be mid-80s and mid-90s. maybe even warmer than that. it was warmer today by 15 and 20 degrees in some places over yesterday. live camera shot outside. you can see -- we see the campanile. so pretty good air quality. i thought today's air quality wouldn't be quite as good but it was pretty good out there. as this high pressure compresses, that's why air quality takes a hit and it should be a little more gunky tomorrow, more fog at the coast, a little patchy stuff and then a little bit of air quality stuff. but just more haze than anything. no fog back along the coast as this model for tomorrow. fog should return by sunday night, maybe sunday afternoon. but in the meantime, that's your beach day. saturday. those are 100s, the purples up in the valley for saturday.

sunday will look a lot like buc frina little cooler inland because a bit of a sea breeze that develops sunday afternoon. so here we go into saturday. saturday morning, san francisco, saturday lunchtime san francisco. 68 degrees. now what's kind of fun to do i know you've all done this, but san francisco is funny on the weekends. there's nobody there. everybody takes off! so you go down to the embarcadero down on the waterfront there, it's kind of fun, grab a bike or skateboard, you can cruise. the place is empty. you can fire a shotgun down market street. there's nobody in town. tomorrow warmer, sunday cooler. 97 in brentwood. we actually do that sometimes, julie. we'll -- i'll grab the kids especially when they were young and would listen to me, we would grab their bikes and go to the city on saturday or sunday on a beautiful day, ride right up market street and on the embarcadero. >> especially the embarcadero. >> it's so fun. >> it's all business and then

we listened to the warriors game on the way home from work and what's going on? some of the announcers were confused. last night didn't go as many expected. the result was just fine for warriors fans. but that said, so many subplots in the wake of game one. so let's start with what could have been a disaster. 1st quarter, klay thompson has
6:54 pm
a left lateral leg contusion which apparently isn't as scary as it sounds. he returned shortly thereafter and scored 24 points with five three-pointers so clearing he is okay. thompson addressed the injury scare today. >> it's sore but nothing too bad. less sore than last night. that's a great sign. and i expect it to heal up even more by tonight hopefully. i have been very blessed to not have any catastrophic injuries in my whole basketball career. i think i have had a high pain tolerance since i have been a kid. and, um, you can be sore going into summertime. that's how i look at it. >> and then of course there was the bizarre sequence at the end of regulation. j.r. smith the offensive rebound off the missed free throw. instead of going back up and shooting for the win, he dribbles out the clock. he insists he knew the game was tied and expecting his team to call time out. not sure anybody is buying that. but his teammates came to his defense. >> there was so much stuff
6:55 pm
going on the game. you know, plays getting reversed and things like that. you know, probably was discombobulated a little bit. we take it on our chin, you know. we made a couple mistakes down the stretch and just those one mistakes didn't cause us the game. we win together, we lose together. it's a team effort. >> then of course there was the dustup at the end of regulation. no word on a possible suspension for triston thompson who was ejected. kevin love won't be suspended for leaving the bench during the ensuing sequence. this according to yahoo sports. the rationale being love stepped on the floor momentarily to protest the call on thompson but then retreated to the bench. now to the road warriors. also known as the oakland a's. remember their last rote trip 7-3 against good competition? they also lead the majors in road home runs. continuing those trends in
