both of you. yes we are going to continue with this mild pattern, at least for the next couple of days. this morning, the low clouds, the patchy drizzle, onshore breeze. here's a view over the clouds there at the oakland estuary. do expect a slow clearing day for a san francisco, as well as the east bay shore. air quality across the bay area this morning. good to moderate. expected to remain in that. but with all that said, we are looking at haze at the higher elevations due to the smoke fire around the bay area as well as that big fire that is burning to the north of us. the temperatures this morning are similar to yesterday morning and the onshore breeze through fairfield. a robust 30 mile per hour gusts there. so those low clouds not only through the delta this morning, but all the way into the sacramento valley temperature wise, a mid 50s at a half moon bay, a low 60s for some of our inland cities. areas like brentwood, 60 degrees right now and for the afternoon below average 65 san francisco low 80s in livermore. a better look at what we can expect for the days ahead. coming up in just a

little bit at 701. let's see how the highways are shaping up on this monday. hi, sal. >> good morning rosemary. right now westbound highway four is a little slow, but things are getting better there. let's go right to it. you can see some slowing in bay point 680. looks good from venetia to walnut creek. and beyond that, all the way to san ramon. highway 24 is off to a nice start, and at the bay bridge we are backed up to about the 880 overcrossing 701 let's get back to the headlines. >> topping our news at seven. we just received an update from cal fire about the park fire near chico. it's now grown to nearly 370,000 acres, by far the largest fire burning in our state. the fire has burned an area larger than the city of los angeles. containment is at 12%. cal fire says at least 100 homes, businesses and other buildings have been destroyed. more than 4000 others are still threatened. fire's growth overnight makes it the sixth largest fire in our state's history. ktvu sally rasmus live now with the latest look at the

firefight this morning. >> well, as that park fire grows, we have a view of what the fire looked like as early as this morning from the alert california camera system. they have a camera, a couple of cameras on colby mountain. let's show you what it looks like this morning. here's a time lapse video from about 530 this morning. and in it you can see a plume of smoke and flames from the park fire. still raging. this alert california camera on colby mountain is about 30 to 50 miles away from where the park fire started, initially on wednesday at bidwell park, which is north of chico. bidwell park is where, according to the butte county district attorney's office, 42 year old ronnie stout of chico pushed a burning car about 60ft down a ravine. police say that burning car ignited what has now become one of the top ten largest wildfires in california history. stout is scheduled to appear in court later today, facing charges of arson for starting that fire. now, as you mentioned, garcia, containment of this fire still just about 12%. cal fire says at least 100 homes, businesses and other buildings have been

destroyed. 4000 homes and businesses are still threatened, and mandatory evacuation orders remain in effect for thousands of people in four different counties, many of them have fled to shelters. >> i just got here tonight and i was a little bit a little, bewildered by the whole situation. i didn't know where i had access to relief. and so i'm grateful. >> so in this fire started, we had all the odds stacked against us. we had extremely receptive fuel beds. we had, high winds, we had topography driven, fire, along with a wind driven fire, it was just, we didn't have anything going in our favor, so now, firefighters, we've been out there, we've gotten more and more resources. >> and its latest update this morning, cal fire says the park fire continues to burn in the lassen national forest and the ishi wilderness, areas that are very difficult to get access to, which is part of the reason why it's been so difficult to contain this fire. over the weekend, governor gavin newsom

declared a state of emergency to free up the use of emergency funds to fight this fire. and as of this morning, more than 4700 personnel are fighting the park fire, including 33 helicopters, 400 engines and more than 100 water tenders. garcia, back to you. >> allie. rasmus. thank you. more firefighters from across the bay are arriving to help battle the park fire and police officers from santa rosa have joined crews on the fire lines as well. the santa rosa police department shared this photo on social media. authorities in butte county requested mutual aid from police agencies statewide to help with evacuations and protect homes from looters. >> firefighters are gaining ground on two brush fires in the east bay in southern alameda county. the creek fire has been burning in the sunol regional park since friday afternoon. it's grown to more than 730 acres, but cal fire says it's now 35% contained in the last couple of days, we've had a nice cooling trend, >> let us really get in there and put the boots on the ground and try to improve our control

lines. we'll be here for the next few days with the heavy footprint in there, trying to make sure that we get line all around it and get control of the fire. >> cal fire says some evacuation orders and road closures remain in place in the fire zone. fire crews are also getting the upper hand on a weekend fire in contra costa county. the point fire started friday afternoon near the city line between bay point and concord, and grew to more than 470 acres, cal fire says the containment is now up to 92%. mandatory evacuation orders were issued for about 100 homes in the area, but have since been lifted. >> happening today, a federal judge is expected to rule whether a scuba boat captain should pay restitution to family members of the people killed in a disastrous boat fire off the central coast five years ago. 34 people died when the boat caught fire in the waters off santa barbara county. the victims families want restitution for funeral expenses. last year, the boat captain, jerry boylan, was convicted of criminal charges after a jury determined he'd abandoned ship. boylan was

sentenced to four years in prison. >> 706 is your time. the november election is now just 99 days away and likely democratic nominee kamala harris is getting ready now to make her first major decision as the 2024 presidential candidate. >> this is a people power campaign and we have momentum. >> democratic sources say harris is now working around the clock, searching for a running mate. the vice president is expected to make her decision within the next two weeks. it's an announcement many democrats predict will provide the largest boost to the harris campaign. >> it's a level of energy that, frankly, i haven't seen on the campaign trail in a long time. >> three names are reportedly at the top of the short list. they are senator mark kelly of arizona, pennsylvania governor josh shapiro and minnesota governor tim walz. >> vice president harris will campaign in the battleground state of georgia tomorrow. her campaign has raised $200 million since she emerged last week as the likely democratic presidential nominee. her

campaign says about two thirds of the donations are from first time contributors in this election. more than 170,000 people have also signed up to help with phone banking, canvasing and other measures to get out the vote. >> republican vice presidential nominee jd vance, scheduled to make an appearance in palo alto tonight. it will be a fundraiser hosted by bitgo chief executive officer mike belsky. vance's campaign stop in silicon valley this evening follows his joint appearance with donald trump in minnesota saturday night. vance's fundraiser requires a minimum $3,300 donation per person. couples that wish to be at the host table must donate at least $50,000. >> the city of sunnyvale is now on the fast track to build new affordable homes near the city's main train station. city leaders hosted a groundbreaking last week to celebrate sunnyvale's latest housing project plans. calls to build to build 176 new affordable rental apartments across the street from sunnyvale's caltrain station. the goal here is to have the first residents move in in the

fall of 2025. >> 708 your time bart service is back to normal for the start of the work week for east bay. stations were closed for part of the weekend due to a power outage. the problem started saturday evening between the 19th street and fruitvale stations. this incident caused four stations to temporarily closed. those were the 12th and 19th street stations, the fruitvale and lake merritt. despite the reopenings, the red line is still out of service until further notice. that route is between richmond and millbrae. until it reopens, bart passengers can take orange and yellow line trains, and now it's 708. >> we do see some slow traffic out there, although we're kind of mild on a monday in some areas. let's go to the east bay first and show you that highway four is going to be a little bit slow in bay point, but 680 looks good and so does 80. this is a look at highway 24. so it's not all that slow. there is a slowdown at the bay bridge though. it's backed up from a little bit before the 880 overcrossing. and once on the bridge it's moderate into san

francisco at 709. let's go back to the desk, sal. >> thank you. new efforts to help people fight drug addiction. what one city leader has planned to help those in need. >> president biden calling for major changes to the us supreme court, including doing away with life appointments. we'll detail his proposed reforms and what comes next. then a quick reminder that you can now stream ktvu news on all your streaming devices. you can watch our live newscasts, get stories on demand and more. when you search for the fox local app and choose

president biden expected to make the announcement during a trip to the lyndon baines johnson presidential library in austin, texas. we've already received a copy of the proposal. president biden is endorsing term limits for justices. supreme court justices currently serve life terms. he's also pushing for an enforceable code of ethics, as well as a constitutional amendment limiting immunity for presidents and other office holders. >> i think what joe biden will do over the next six months is he's going to keep drawing that to the attention of the american people and reminding them when they vote in november, the supreme court is on the ballot. >> any reforms to the high court

would require congressional approval. coming up in our next half hour of news, we'll hear from an expert on these changes. >> while in texas, president biden is also set to travel to houston to pay his respects to the late congresswoman sheila jackson lee. she is set to lie in state at houston city hall. vice president harris is set to attend a celebration of life for jackson lee on thursday. the 74 year old congresswoman served houston for more than 30 years. she died earlier this month of pancreatic cancer. >> all right. back here in the bay area, the san mateo coroner's office has released the identities of the three people killed in a crash. on highway one at devil's slide. the victims are 29 year old mohammad nouri from south san francisco. there was also 28 year old angelica gaucho, also of south san francisco, and 36 year old brian aroma from fort riley, kansas. their sedan, for some reason, went off of a cliff friday. traffic in the area was shut down for hours as authorities investigated what happened. the crash was recovered. the car was recovered on saturday. investigators are

still working to determine what led to this crash. >> police in hayward are investigating a shooting that killed a 15 year old girl and wounded one other person. officers were called to the area of tennyson and tyrell. several blocks east of 880. around 1115 sunday morning. detectives found two people had been shot. the teen died at the scene, the other was taken to the hospital and is receiving treatment. police are still looking for the shooter. it's not yet clear what led to the attack. >> hundreds of sonoma county farm workers held a weekend march and rally in the heart of california's wine country. they gathered in healdsburg to demand higher wages and hazard pay. the farm workers want additional money from winemakers when they are working in dangerous conditions, such as in extreme heat or in smoky conditions caused by wildfires. they also called for wages of $25 per hour, or $250 for every ton of grapes they pick. berkeley city council members are postponing a vote to change a century old housing ordinance. at its latest meeting, the council decided to vote until later, postpone that vote until later this fall and

proposal that if passed, it would allow small apartment buildings to be built throughout the city. for years, berkeley residents fought to keep many neighborhoods designated for single family housing only. supporters of the proposal say the move will help accelerate housing developments. opponents say they fear without affordable housing provisions, there will be push will push low income residents out of the city. >> caltrans is beginning a series of overnight closures in one part of highway one tonight to continue road repairs from heavy storms last march, the full overnight closures start at 9:00 tonight, set to reopen by six tomorrow morning. the work will take place south of the rocky creek bridge, north of big sur. the overnight closures will last through thursday, august 1st. caltrans says repairs should be complete sometime next summer. >> all right, staying on the issue of roads now 716 is your time cells back up with a look at them. hey sal. >> all right andre and garcia, good morning to you both. right now we do have some slowing in the east bay. although it is not as severe as it was. let's say last week. at some points,

highway four is slow, but 680 looks pretty good from benicia all the way to san ramon. we have a little bit of slowing here and there, but 24 is not really getting a lot of action, bay bridge backed up from beyond 880, so it is pretty slow there. 880 itself looks good. 716 still overcast in many spots. the spring in rosemary to talk about the weather. >> yes sal, i think it's going to be a slow clearing day for parts of the bay area as we remain in this very mild pattern across the bay area at this time. in addition to the low clouds, we have patchy drizzle start the day as well, and a live look here over the oakland estuary. you can see plenty of overcast sky as we look towards the oakland coliseum. a's are off today. they take on the giants tomorrow in san francisco. air quality across the region for today. expected to remain good to moderate. at the surface, the higher elevations we are likely to see smoke and haze. we had a couple of fires start over the weekend here in the bay area. and then we've got that large fire to the north of us. so something to

consider if you're going to be outdoors. you smell the smoke. always a good idea to avoid it. it's bad for us as we know. storm tracker two here, showing you the trough that remains over the west by tuesday, it begins to push out. here's a look at the futurecast model. you can see the dip here. even some blue on the screen over areas of canada and the pacific northwest. so today, tomorrow very similar temperatures on the mild side as we get into tuesday night. notice it's shifting. it's leaving the west coast. it's going east. and as a result this high pressure here is going to build back in. and that is going to bring our temperatures up for a few days. right now it looks like they peak on friday and i'll show you that in the extended forecast outside our doors at this time, the onshore breeze through fairfield gusting to 30mph. those low clouds not only through the delta this morning, but into the sacramento valley. once again, our temperatures very similar to yesterday within a couple of degrees for most 56 right now in the city of san francisco in the

north bay, 54 in novato, the inner east bay, upper 50s in walnut creek, low 60s over san jose, an enjoyable day coming for you into the afternoon. livermore noontime numbers about 75 degrees or so. and then low 80s for the livermore valley into the afternoon. meanwhile, on the peninsula 72, in san mateo in the north bay, 75 in napa. your extended forecast here, temperatures will remain status quo for the couple of days here. and then as we get into wednesday, we do start to see an increase in the temps once again. by friday mid 90s for our inland cities, 80s around the bay, 60s at the coast in time for the weekend, we're going to drop temperatures off just a little bit upper 80s low low 90s expected for our inland cities. gasia. >> rosemary. thank you. the environmental protection agency has approved two grants totaling more than $10 million money from the epa will provide federal funds to help pay for two major watershed projects in the bay area the san francisco estuary partnership says the grants will boost efforts to protect and

restore watersheds in hayward, richmond, san pablo and north richmond. community leaders in east oakland have announced a plan to invest $100 million into the neighborhood. the initiative is being led by rise east to join effort by oakland thrives and the 40 by 40 council, a coalition of community based organizations. oakland thrives is working to raise $50 million in local funding to be matched by the national philanthropic organization blue meridian partners, for a total of 100 million. rise east is guided by a ten year plan to improve schools economic opportunity and health and well-being in east oakland. coming up, water quality worries persist for the paris olympics. the pre triathlon event that was canceled following $1 billion cleanup effort of the river. seen what happened just this weekend that unraveled much of the work done before the games. then the warriors held final dance auditions at thrive city highlights from the hundreds, who were competing for just 90 spots on the team. then a quick reminder that back to school

the seine river, but heavy rain over the weekend brought back safety concerns. >> 30 years ago, it was up to 20,000,000m!t of wastewater that was thrown directly to the scene. we managed to reduce this amount to 2,000,000m!t every year. >> the first triathlon event is set for tomorrow. it can be pushed back a few days, but if conditions don't improve, the athletes will only compete in the biking and running portions of the race here at home. the warriors held their final round of auditions for their entertainment teams. the competition took place before an audience of family, friends and fans outside thrive city, 137 dancers took the stage. sunday, competed for 90 spots on four dance teams the gold squad, the blue crew, the junior jam squad and hardwood classics. hollywood and broadway legend rita moreno. among the judges. our own betty yu was one of the judges as well. the final results are to be announced wednesday, july 31st on the warriors website.

from cal fire. as evacuees get their first look at the damage left behind. president biden is pushing for major supreme court reforms, including term limits and abiding code of ethics. a local expert will join us live to discuss what the potential changes could mean from ktvu, fox two news. >> this is mornings on two. >> it is 729. welcome to mornings on two. i'm andre senior in for dave clark. i'm gasia mikaelian. >> it's monday july 29th a week ago rosemary we were worried about intense heat. there's another weather related issue we're concerned about today that's coming from a fire to our north. >> yes, we've got that haze out

there. garcia. andre, good morning to both of you. do expect that haze to be at the higher elevations for today at the surface air quality likely to remain good to moderate. however, if you smell the smoke as you know, a good idea to avoid it, here's a live look over the oakland estuary, where we could see the low clouds and perhaps some haze in there with patchy drizzle to go along with it. temperatures for this morning, ranging from low 50s at the coast to low 60s inland, and for the afternoon below average for our inland cities. 61 degrees expected in pacifica, 84 expected in antioch. a better look at what we can expect for today and the days ahead. coming up in just a little bit at 730. let's see how the highways are doing this morning. hi, sal. >> hello, rosemary. right now we do have a backup. that is pretty steep here at the bay bridge, which is getting better by the moment. it looks like it's loosening up a little bit, but it's still backed up almost to the maze as we look at that. we're also looking at interstate 880 in oakland. that looks

pretty good with no major issues. the peninsula traffic has been without issue, just a little slowing on northbound 101. in san francisco. 730 let's go back to the headlines, artell. >> thank you. today president biden is calling for major supreme court reforms, including term limits for justices, a binding code of ethics, of conduct, of ethics rules, and for a constitutional amendment to strip presidents of immunity from prosecution. joining us now is uc law. san francisco professor david levine. david, thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> good morning. andre >> all right. so david, we talked about this a couple of weeks ago when you were on the newscast, about these proposed changes. but now that you've seen them in writing, what are your thoughts of the changes? >> well, i think they're all useful, andre. but the real question is, will they ever come into being? the, you know, the idea that there would be an enforceable code of ethics on the supreme court? i think there's a crying need for that. we've all seen the stories about justices alito and thomas, and

about how they have, done things that in hindsight, let's say, don't look very good. and over the weekend, even justice kagan was calling for an enforceable code of ethics. so there's a lot of room to go there, so that it would be useful. every other federal judge has is has a, a binding code of ethics. and it really ought to apply. there's not much of an argument against it except to the extent republicans perceive this as an attack on two of their heroes in justice thomas and alito. but it's really a wider issue. and then the other proposal that mr. biden is going to be making is for term limits for supreme court justices, specifically in 18 year term. now, the constitution does say that supreme court justices, as other federal judges, serve during good behavior. so you'd have to figure out some way that they could still be treated as federal judges, even if their term was only for 18 years. on

the supreme court. i think it can be done, but it it requires a little bit of navigating. but again, the problem is can you get enough people in congress to see the big picture to say this won't necessarily favor one side or the other, because if it's perceived that it's just an attack on one side, it's not going to go anywhere. the democrats don't have enough votes in either the senate or the congress to do more than have a hearing in the senate. that's the most they could get out of this. so this and go ahead. >> the success of this will be based on the argument that can be made to the public and to congress that all sounds really familiar here, because, you know, the attack is what each side keeps saying when they bring something up, is this is attacking one side or attacking the other side, going back to one of the proposals here, the president would appoint a justice every two years. and as you mentioned, to spend 18 years on the bench. is this

achievable, at least this particular line, i think. >> i mean, it's achievable in the sense that i think you could craft something as a statute that would pass the constitution as long as you gave those judges something else to do. once the 18 years was up. and to me, the easiest thing to do is give them some assignments as semi-retired justices. and the most obvious one would be put them on the court of appeal, the court immediately below. so i think it could be solved. but what you need to have is you'd have to have a coalescence in congress of people perceiving this as something that's good for everybody and not just good for one side or the other as it's written. i think the reality is what we're talking about with this, plus the constitutional amendment to change presidential immunity, is it will give vice president harris and the democrats talking points as we move into the election and to, you know, focus on the very

unpopular supreme court. but the more they do that, the less likely that these proposals are to get passed. certainly in the next months. i think they're all good proposals. but i just don't see them as actually going anywhere beyond something to talk about. as we move further and further into the election season. >> yeah. and the biden administration says, vice president harris does support this moving forward. now, let's get back to how this would be possible here. what would be needed to make something like this happen? >> sure. well, the ethics code, had passed the statute. have the president sign it and have the supreme court say that it's constitutional, we've had at least justice alito suggest that nothing that binds the supreme court would be constitutional. i don't think that's right. same thing with the 18 year term limit. now, with respect to reversing the decision on presidential immunity, that would take a constitutional amendment and that would require a vote of two thirds, not just a

majority, but two thirds of the house, two thirds of the senate. and then three quarters of the states. and i just view that as, extremely unlikely to actually happen. >> yeah, the bar is extremely high for that, for that, very high for that to pass. all right. so we'll have to see what happens next. my journey to talking points, as you mentioned just a moment ago, you see law professor david levine, thank you so much for your insight into this. always a pleasure. we'll talk to you soon. all right. see you later. bye bye. is coming up on 736. now, now to this story. the man accused of starting the park fire north of chico is due in court later today to face arson charges. prosecutors in butte county say 42 year old ronnie stout pushed a burning car into a canyon at upper bidwell park last week. authorities say that fire then exploded in size, eventually growing into the largest wildfire in california so far. this year. and we just got an update now from cal fire. it reports the park fire has now grown to nearly 370,000 acres, an area larger than the entire

city of los angeles. >> containment is just 12%. still, this is now the sixth largest wildfire in our state's history. firefighters say the temperatures are beginning to drop, but winds are picking up again, pushing the flames into new areas. >> basically, it's making pretty significant run, about 100 acres or so moving into some heavier fuels. we have, dozers, crews and engines and aircraft making a direct attack on that the best they can. >> cal fire says at least 100 homes, businesses and other buildings have been destroyed. 4000 are still threatened. mandatory evacuation orders are in effect for thousands across four counties. >> i got two city pd officers at the door telling me i needed to get out. i packed up what i could pack up in the car, me and the dog and i got out. i heard the neighbor across the street from me lost his house and i. i only live in an old double wide mobile. whether it's still standing or not. i got no idea. >> governor newsom has declared a state of emergency. the

proclamation issued over the weekend will help provide additional funds in the fire recovery effort. some residents are getting a look at the damage done to their neighborhoods after evacuating. >> just being grateful. >> sorry, i knew you wouldn't be able to do it. >> i'm just very emotionally drained and i'm grateful. >> grateful that we have our house and that we have a lot of neighbors that still have their house standing. >> julie gatti were some of the fortunate residents who returned to see their homes still standing, but some neighbors down the street experienced heavy losses. john gatti is a cal fire firefighter who used his knowledge to assess the situation in the night they had to evacuate as julie, their two daughters and dog, made it out. john stayed back to protect the neighborhood. >> i differentiate being a neighbor and being a professional, and i think that's what allowed me to stay here
