fog when you walk out the door this morning, and some other storms over the mountains as we scan the marathon running across the bridge on a cold sunday morning for it i will have your complete forecast headed your way in just a few minutes. ,,,,

>> pretty consistent temperatures. it will look for slow clearing the second. ,,,,,,,,

>> taking a live look at the golden gate bridge where the marathon is going on. we have 20,000 runners taking place. it started at 5:30 this morning. as you can see from the live pictures, they are making their way through the fog right now. a lot of road closures in the. , and those are suspected to be in place until around 2:00. be aware, especially if you are coming into the city from the north they. you know, the fog is not the best situation, but if you're running, that's got to be a relief. >> this next or efi and kind of annoying. i know they need money, but now you have to carry dollar bills that change with you if you are trained to get on a transit bus.

starting tomorrow you have to pay more. >> you better get a roll of dimes because the regular adult fare goes up to $2.10. senior and disabled fares, they will be $1.5. that's up a nickel. they fares, they increase at 240. passes are also increasing. local 31 day passes will stay the same for everyone except for kids. >> and in other bay. headlines, chevron corporation is on track for what could be its most profitable year ever. boosted by high oil and gas purses, the company is -- has earned nearly $8 million. that's $8 billion in the second quarter. chevron made almost $14 million in profit the first half of the year.

and san francisco's new visitation valley library opened yesterday with a traditional good luck lion dance. the new facility is nearly 10,000 square feet, and it cost more than $13 million. all paid for out of a bond measure by voters. >> back to that chevron story. to annoying stories in a row. hopefully, jim bernard can go ahead and even the score on that one and make it less annoying when you talk about the weather forecast. it's going to be in a state. >> that's a tough request there, she's definitely annoyed this morning. i've got more clouds and fog of their today than yesterday with a deeper marine layer. the cloud deck running at about 3000 feet today. it's a little slower to clear through the day. hope that doesn't annoy you too much, but we will see some sunshine by this afternoon. taking a look at ocean beach, kind of fuzzy with a camera out there with an extensive cloud deck, as you would expect at the coast. i would look for the beach to say overcast all day long, which

means back to a bout the mess, probably cloudy here. by this afternoon, out across the interior, mostly funny with a slight chance for showers. way out of the east, we are talking the valley into the foothills of the sierras is where we will see the showers this afternoon. you may get a view of the tops and maybe even some of the lightning going on out there i'm a distance, but we will look for generally cooler temperatures today, much like yesterday in the mid-to low '80s for most locations. at the day, mid-to low 70s with morning closing the way to after the shine, and then as i mentioned, staying pretty foggy at the beach. the pattern hasn't changed much. we continue with the onshore push at the beach. out across the valley, southerly flow brings moisture into the high country. so a lot of lightning from yosemite up toward lake tahoe yesterday afternoon as a result of the thunder storms. look for more about today and tomorrow as we continue with a cool week setting up for the bay.

due to the fog layer which will continue here are you a late- night and early morning hours getting to the way to partial after clearing. here's a look at the extent of the thunderstorms for today. we'll again look for a lot of clubs out there this morning giving way to some afternoon clearing across the region. daytime highs will be on the wild side as we look for those mid- to low '80s across the interior and that pattern to continue with a cool week setting up into next weekend before we see a little more sun and a bit of a blog in those temperatures. still below average for this time of year. continue to cool is the expectation. >> sounds good. >> southlake microclimates are at work as weekend. >> indeed, they are. as you expect this time of year. lots of air conditioning going on at the coast. >> sounds good. >> major changes on the way to california's political landscape. the state commission just approved the final draft maps for state districts.

>> and it's not without controversy. that's why we checked in with willie brown did a sadly speaker so he knows his way around these lines. and san francisco political writer joe carefully who has been covering this issue. the question is, when it comes to redistricting, we want to know, who wins, who loses? >> democrats win. their lines are drawn, so they are a lot more democratic. but also there will be more competitive rates. mayor brown? in it i think he's correct that he needs to add one more platform, the business of an open primary. it means without a doubt that you are not going to be able to get away with being only a tea party person. you're really going to have to be interested in all people at all times. >> when they redraw the map, it appears that democrats have a shot at taking a two thirds of 30 in the state senate so that they could rule the roost with taxes. they don't have such a clear shot on the state assembly.

those are still up in the air. my question is, how does it change? >> well, it really doesn't change power. when you do reinforcements, you want to make sure you maintain. that's what we would do. we would draw the line and get you the person who let the vote. we can give you a good shot to run it. >> that's why we have this new system. >> people have already started to move. >> i understand. he was moving. i asked him, i said, where are you moving to? in order to be in his district. he said, when we find out, we will know. >> you really ought to have a motor home, i think.

>> a lot of the issue of this is google from democrat republican to ethnic minorities. whether the community should be together or divided. latin americans, his attic americans. >> well, let me tell you. african-americans are going to have to change their perspective and try to make book with a coalition of latinos and asians in order to protect the black elected opportunities that currently exist. others they have to right now -- all of the black districts are 30% lack and 50% office -- latino. >> and we know that things were certainly different this time around. we go through this process every 10 years, but this time we had a citizens redistricting committee drawing those lines rather than politicians. how did that change things? >> very interesting. the last time we drew the lines, basically the democrats and republicans -- republicans got their margin rose from the

white house. 19 republican seats out of california so they could hold onto the majority in washington. after that, they didn't really care. jim got together with john burton who is the head of the democrats and said, give me 19 congressional seats and everybody can stay the same. john said, fine, we retain our majority here, everybody gets a sase intel for you. still have the majority in the congressional district. deal done. it was pretty well summed up. >> we are dealing with the congressional districts, but also the state legislative district. which one has got a power-play? >> i would say locally for you tonight, it's the locals. nationally, california is going to remain ready much blue. but it's good to open things up in sacramento, and that's when to be a change. >> all right. which will be interesting. a few hours away from another that limit debate. >> but what happens if congress can't raise it by tuesday's deadline? all right. a uc berkeley fellow who has been following the ups and downs of

this debt limit that joins us next. ,,,,,,,,,,

[ female announcer ] palo alto medical foundation, and sutter health -- our story is you.

>> right now, live pictures of the san francisco marathon. 20,000 runners making their way around the city as we speak. well, congress may make history on tuesday if he can't make a deal on that debt limit lawmakers they put that to a vote again within the next couple of hours. >> some say the president can raise it on its own, but we have

patrick sherman joining us more on the debate. what happens if the deal is it me by tuesday good morning. >> good morning. >> the first question, what does happen if it doesn't -- i think sharing it all on the news. i've been hearing it on the cable channels. it seems like -- everyone seems to have an opinion. what really happened question at. >> there's a lot of worry when we talk social security and unemployment checks. >> absolutely. he don't know sexy with what happened. only the treasury secretary knows what happens. certainly, the big danger is that social security checks are not going to be mailed out and people will start seeing it in their pocket books. >> that's very scary to a lot of people, especially senior citizens. how likely is this? >> it's likely. i mean, the treasury is going to run out of ability to pay its bills very shortly. if not august 2nd, sometime over the coming weeks. >> patrick, washington only operates on crisis, they say.

sometimes you have to increase the pressure to get a movement going. now we are talking about social security. in terms of the economy, in terms of -- it had these problems in california as well. it was is at stake here? and is this going to make it any better for the average person in the economic world in america today question the. >> and the likelihood is it will me things worse. i think there's a lot of stuff being debated about right now, but everything seems to point toward big cuts in spending over the next year. as we know, we are in a period of recession, high unemployment. during those times, it's really important for the government not to cut out but to increase spending because no one else is doing it. you know, this is really the danger. unfortunately, it seems that the operatic and republican puzzles are going to pursue about $1 trillion in spending cuts over the next year. what remains to be seen as how that plays out, what will happen after that. but it's not looking good. >> i just want you to give us a brief historical perspective. this is the first time i think a lot of people have heard of the debt ceiling debate, even

though it's gone on a million times. now it seems to be being used as a political pawn. >> absolutely. it's a very esoteric thing. part of the reason people have heard about it is because it's such a routine procedure normally. congress usually will raise the debt ceiling to cousin is not much of a sting. but this time one of the issues is that it is so massive. the debt ceiling used to get raised and it was in increments. it was sort of like paying off your credit rebel. this time, however, is bringing into focus the question of government spending at a time when healthcare was just past them at a time when social security, questions about whether we can continue paying with a rates, but also at a time when the economy is at a standstill and people are saying, this is when you should spend. >> think you are right in the sense that everything seems to be much bigger right now. we have a big debt. we have a big debt to gdp ratio. we have big deficits. i think the thing that is missing from the debate is the fact that

the debt and deficit are symptoms, not the cause of a bad economy. we shouldn't just look at the national debt figures, that clock. that's $14 trillion. of the way we should think about the debt is as a debt burden. so debt divided by gdp. this is the way that economists think about it. it's the way that most investors think about a country's physical health. and if that's the case, what we need to be doing is focusing on raising our gdp, raising our economic growth. that will bring the debt down through what we doing instead is focusing on just cutting. unfortunately, that's going to have a negative affect on the economy in a negative affect on our debt burden. >> a lot of this power-play and political gains that evolve because of the 2012 presidential election coming up -- >> one of the parts of the deal will be to kick this or any more discussion about this until after the elections. >> that's one of the most fascinating things about what's happening right now. policy wise, there's a lot of agreement over the size of the cuts, but the big sticking point is whether we have another debt doing debate in six months, which is

what the republican want, or 12 month after the election or you. >> all comes down to politics. >> thank you. thank you very much. uc berkeley, patrick sherman. thanks. >> we will be right back. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

between 20 and 30 years old with a medium build. he was seen driving a gray bmw sedan. >> back on the national front. the white house and republican lawmakers are now reported to be moving toward an agreement on raising the nation's debt limit. just in time before tuesday's deadline. but they are talking about is a plan to raise the event -- raise the limit by about two-point $252.4 trillion and cut federal spending by slightly more. at the window would be raised in two stages, one by a trillion dollars and 1.4 trillion later. senate leaders are cautiously optimistic this deal might go through with senate majority leader harry reid holding off of all for last-minute discussions. >> there is still a distance to go before any arrangement can be completed. but i believe everyone should have as much room as possible to do their work. >> i am confident and asked me sick that we are going to get an agreement in the very near future and resolve this crisis.

>> a compromise is being hashed out and would not contain any tax increases. at the chiba public and demand. the democrat would also have no renewed battle on raising the debt limit until after next year's presidential election. >> 8:05. state lawmakers will review what happened to jaycee dugard this week. you know the story. on wednesday they are going to meet with police and victims rights groups to figure out what led to jaycee dugard kidnapping and years of rape at the hands of the convicted sex offender, phillip guido. in june he was sentenced to life the hind bars. his wife, nancy, was sentenced to 36 years. >> and the woman accused of robbing the san francisco hotel room of the jeopardy game show host is set to be arraigned tomorrow. officers are -- officers arrested lucinda moyers tuesday, and she's being held on $625,000 bail.

east a. here in sacramento valley will be in the mid-90s today with a bit of under some activity out over the high country this year from yosemite up to lake tahoe. we are looking for some afternoon for some development. had a lot of lightning strikes up there yesterday. more of the same today, and there is flash flood warnings out for the high country inn and around the underserved. so keep in mind that that's in that direction. we will continue to be cool as we see the low clouds and fog quite extensive. it will be around through midweek sending a bit toward the midweek allowing temperatures to one split between me or seasonal norms. just a couple degrees. nothing too dramatic. we will be the heat way for texas when they are in the 22nd day of record heat. no rain or relief in sight for them very we continue on the cool side. the afternoon clouds will give way to more sunshine on abc temperatures again ranging from the mid-80s to mid-70s to mid-60s. to pick the temperature contour of

your choice and plan accordingly here as we do have a selection for the west coast. unlike most of the country where they can't do away from the weather, no matter how far they go, we will look for mid-80s today. a little warmer tomorrow. upper '80s to low '90s. and then continued cool through midweek. by the end of the week, we start to see if anyone of that marine layer. as a result, temperatures bumped up slightly. nothing dramatic but very seasonal, mild temperatures expected through the week for the greater bay. you've got to like that. >> i'm not complaining. i can actually take a little fog. what you said, the rest of the country is burning up. we've got her own air- conditioning. >> thanks, jim. a shakeup in california's political landscape. that's after a state commission approved the final drafts of redistricting maps. >> to understand who wins and who loses with the new districts, we've got had of california republican party. found out the karl joins us this morning. you've are not happy with these

lines. whyquestion asked him if they inconsistently applied criteria and you wind up with ridiculous things like the county seat of cost of martino's like the common capital is up and separated from the rest. that makes absolutely no sense. burbank is split two different ways depending. by and large, democratic gain in areas where it is not justified that they gain. >> this one was done by citizens as opposed to lawmakers. the complaint has os x, that's democrat majorities. that's what they would do. this was done by an impartial group. >> did you say in partial? >> they were republicans and democrats. >> there is also a guy named gambino here he who gave donations to people and magically those people benefited on the lines drawn in the. you know, they wanted this to work out well. in practice it didn't work out well, and with a look at whether it was so bad that we need to do a referendum on some of those.
