california bar. good morning, it is friday, november 9th. i'm michelle griego. >> and i'm kenny choi. we are continuing to follow the latest developments in butte county where tens of thousands of people have already been forced out of their homes as the "camp fire" rages out of control. we won't know the full extent for some time but we know that thousands of structures have been destroyed and there are multiple deaths there. the fire has scorched about 20,000 acres so far since it broke out yesterday morning. and as a result, air quality is going to be a big problem in the bay area today. >> you can smell it in the air. >> yes. >> you would think it's just right down the street and it's not. that's what everyone is saying. just so bad and so thick with that smoke. actually, just checking the air quality for us compared to beijing, china, and we worse than beijing, china. to show you how bad it is. the air quality unhealthy for the bay area here. we are looking at smoky hazy

conditions. the air quality advisory is in effect. a "spare the air" alert. now the good thing, the winds will not be as strong today. and we'll also see the winds begin to shift as we head through the day. that does mean less smoke in our air. so it will still be bad but not as bad as what we saw yesterday and not what we're experiencing for today. we should see things get a little bit better as we head through the rest of our friday. the red flag warning for all bay area hills will expire at 7 a.m. we are in thing the winds. they are easing and that will be a good thing here but with everything so dry, and with very low relative humidity values, we are talking about a high fire danger even without those dry gusty offshore winds. we are going to take you through futurecast wind gusts through the rest of today and through the weekend as we are tracking the return of offshore winds later on this weekend. i'll have details on that coming up in just a bit. back to you. because of that air quality, there is a "spare the air" alert so use mass transit

instead of the roads this morning. we just checked in and mass transit is on time this morning. bart has 40-plus trains. caltrain, muni, ace, capitol corridor, no problems. no delays. not the case on the freeways. we have had a handful of accidents just in here from the chp. south 101 at grand avenue, one lane now blocked. they managed to open at least two lanes and cleared some cars out of the road but several vehicles including two big rigs involved in the crash. southbound 101 from 280 to 380, that's a 23-minute drive time. so if you are commuting out of san francisco into south city towards maybe the airport, you're going to see about 23 minutes. so traffic jammed up. back to you. wildfires raging out of control across california this morning. and many bay area residents will notice it the moment they step outside. the "camp fire" has already burned an entire town to the ground county. and it's sending a lot of smoke our way. there is little left in the

town of paradise this morning and the flames are now approaching neighborhoods near chico. both directions of highway 99 are closed after flames jumped the road. the "camp fire" has scorched about 20,000 acres in the area since it started yesterday morning. right now, there is zero containment. tens of thousands of people have been forced to evacuate and social media is now filled with posts from families trying to find separated lost once including michelle watson whose parents live just five miles from paradise. >> all day long, i was so freaked out i couldn't even go to work. i didn't want to go to work. i don't want to do nothing. i tell my mom and dad if they're listening that i love them and i just want to hear from them. that's all, i just want to hear from 'em. >> all schools in butte county canceled classes for today. santa rosa junior college will also be closed due to the poor air quality. because of the fire burning up north, air quality is unhealthy for most of the bay area. this is a live look at lafayette this morning. it is best for people to stay

indoors as much as possible. so that means if you are pregnant, like jackie ward is, best to stay inside. >> yeah. no kidding. it was nice of my producers to think of that before i even did. i'm grateful for that this morning. it is not hard to see or smell what we're talking about this morning. but until the sun comes up let's show you sunset from last night. we have pictures from all over the bay area. thick haze didn't keep people from running. some wore breathing masks. this smoke is coming from butte county as we said. it affects our most vulnerable populations, the elderly, respiratory problems and children. >> this probably is the worst i have seen this year. it just came in so quickly. >> smoky and my eyes and my nose are dry as a bone. >> reporter: because of all this heavy smoke the air

district has a winter "spare the air" alert in place that started last night and will last through today. that means you shouldn't burn wood indoors or outdoors and it is illegal for anyone in the bay to use their fireplaces, wood stoves, pellet stoves and outdoor fire pits. the air district said until this smoke subsides, it is best to stay indoors when possible with the windows and doors closed. back to you. i'm anne makovec at the live news desk watching the woolsey fire burning in southern california. hundreds of thousands of people are now being evacuated as part of the 101 is shut down. this is a live picture from our sister station's chopper. you can see a lot of smoke in the area. this is in between l.a. and ventura counties. but an hour ago the fire jumped the 101 so it is now threatening the communities of calabasas and malibu. so hundreds of thousands of people have been evacuated. about 75,000 homes.

these evacuation orders coming in the dead of night. some getting the alert through a text messages, others by door knocks. at this point, we have no idea how many homes have burned. but it is at least dozens of homes. the last official word we got was 30. but it is certainly going to be a lot more. you can see just the massive acreage covered right now by those flames. and, of course, we are only getting one perspective. now that it jumped the freeway, they closed it down about 20 minutes ago which was also a diicult challenge because you still had people in the process of evacuating. and i want to mention, this is right near the community of thousand oaks and, in fact, it is in thousand oaks. this community was dealing with the shooting yesterday. so utter devastation for these people. we are going to keep an eye on this throughout the morning. pictures from southern california really stunning.

>> it is devastating there anne, thank you so much. more on that. thousands of people have been evacuating the areat.isis a clo firefighters have been dealing with. we know dozens county, fire crews say 25-mile-per- hour winds and difficult terrain have create challenges in effectively fighting the blaze. >> by stopping the fire from spreading from one house to the next with these high winds, it's really hard with the embers flying around it's hard to save homes. so what we are doing is putting water curtain in between some homes to stop the fire from leapfrogging and catching other homes on fire. >> the early-morning evacuations are causing heavy traffic delays as residents attempt to leave the area. and just a few miles north, heavy smoke from the hill fire is also forcing evacuations this morning. some drivers on 101 drove the wrong way on the freeway just to escape the flames. it burned more than 10,000 acres so far. as anne said, the hill

fire is burning in the same community still reeling from the shooting that killed 12 people on wednesday night. [ singing ] >> last night thousands of people turned out for a vigil in thousand oaks. authorities have now identified six of the people who were killed during college "country night" at the borderline bar & grill including sergeant ron helus who rushed into the bar confronted the shooter as well as sean adler a bouncer who died helping people escape. >> what we hear, he engaged him first. and i know sean. he tried his best. no if, ands or buts about it. that's him. >> i am numb now. sean has done so much to help

this community. >> police say that the shooter, 28-year-old ian david long, may have been dealing with ptsd after serving in afghanistan. long was armed with a handgun fitted with enhe walked into the bar and opened fire. he was found dead inside. officials say that long had encounters with police as recently as april which led him to a meeting with mental health specialists who decided he was not a threat to the public. time now 6:09. google is taking action in response to mass employee walkout but critics say it's not enough. >> commuters are running into a big problem at a brand-new east bay bart station.

you so? >> no. >> why? >> there's no reason to gloat. the gloating doesn't do any -- it's let's fix this and move on. let's learn how to look at these things in the future, better than we did in the past. >> bart received $16 million to build 800 more spaces right next door. but that won't be for another two years. the mayor says that's still not enough. even though they are lacking parking spaces there we are still encouraging everyone to take mass transit this morning. >> yeah. you know, especially today with the poor air quality that winter "spare the air" alert is effect and we checked in with mass transit. bart has 50 trains on time now so a very good choice this morning. ace train number 3 through vasco and livermore on time right now. caltrain, muni, checking in problem-free. metering lights are on at the bay bridge. 4 minutes from the maze to the central freeway. looks like -- 24 minutes from the maze to the central
