>> as kron four's amanda hari reporting for us from livermore tonight. another big story we're staying on top of staying on top of for you this evening is the terrible air there is another spare the air alert in effect for tonight and also across the bay area because of all the smoke that's blowing in from the wildfires. a look there at walnut creek, san francisco and a shot that should be showing us. you can kind of make it out there. the golden gate bridge unhealthy air across the bay area today contributing to that are the number of fires that have been burning across northern california specifically. >> one of them. the calder far caldor fire should say crews now getting the upper hand slowly on that as well. containment now growing to 19% on this as flames continue to creep closer to south lake tahoe. the fire has now burned more than 152,000 acres and is now 19% contained favorable weather today did allow crews

to get more containment on the growing blaze. cruz, meanwhile, working around the clock to stop the fire from reaching the lake tahoe region. we're told that the eastern edge of the fire just 8 miles away from the city of south lake tahoe. >> the fire has destroyed more than 600 structures since it first started about 2 weeks ago today which of course is caused the spare, the air because of all the smoke and it an extended through the weekend. we're taking a look now at the air quality map on the kron four's own radar. we can see some parts will be very poor. this is right now. other parts are considered to be just poor and moderate, but even just moderate air still very smokey out there and it's irritating a lot of people who have some health concerns go across 4 meteorologist marisa rodriguez here to talk a little bit about that as we take a live look at the sutro tower camera. >> and justin was talking a little bit about it. just the

smoke in. >> everything else has been happening recent. yeah, that's right. i mean, we're tracking some pretty poor air particles. >> not just at the ground surface level but also in the upper levels as well. so that's what you have spare. the air alert and an air quality advisory in effect through sunday night. >> when trucker for still seeing those northerly breezes out there. >> throughout most of the bay area, but they're going to shift out of the southwest. so we are going to see more of a cool sea breeze influence. we're going to notice improved air quality first arriving along the coast by sunday morning and it's going to improve for those of you in the inland valleys by around sunday night. but taking a look at air quality for tomorrow afternoon. still going to be under that moderate to unhealthy range. the porous. for those of you in the north bay and east bay valleys in addition to that tracking a very hot and dry and warm air mass out there even this evening for your 9 o'clock hour. temperatures still in the low to mid 80's for innermost valleys in the

east bay livermore and dublin. 82 degrees conquered 83 degrees with san jose. pretty pleasant temperatures there in the mid 70's. but finally noticing that cool down right along the bay area shoreline low to mid 60's downtown san francisco and even oakland and berkeley in the mid 60's out there right now for your 9 o'clock hour with widespread low to mid 70's for those of you in the north bay. so we are tracking some really. but unfortunately it took all day for us to get here. but finally relief in sight. and we're going to notice cooler temperatures by the afternoon arriving by some degrees on sunday afternoon. but really the cool down will begin tuesday of this upcoming week when we cool down to pretty seasonable temperatures from coast to valleys. more on that in my full forecast and your microclimate sunday outlook in just a few minutes. just seen in. jonathan, back to you. thank you so much for president joe biden is vowing

day after hurricane katrina decimated new orleans and much of the gulf coast, folks there are bracing for another major hurricane, something that. >> they just simply used to. we're talking about hurricane ida some believe that it could pack a punch just like katrina if not more as well. >> ida is gaining strength. that is expected to hit new orleans tomorrow and reporter jack, where is in new orleans. he's there for us live tonight. people are preparing for the worst. he's going to go over a little bit with us, how they're getting ready and what the mood is like there tonight before hurricane ida makes landfall. good evening, jack. >> good evening and you're right, it's the new does it really depends on who you ask. some people are walking around like it's any other night saying they're just going to ride this storm out others. we saw getting out of town bumper to bumper traffic headed out of new orleans as we were coming in earlier today. you can see behind me some places are doing what they can

boarding up windows, things like that. others kind of feel like it's old hat at this point here in new orleans. but nonetheless, that does not diminish how seriously the leadership here is taking this storm. the governor saying while this could be worse than katrina. they also feel more prepared than last time, too. >> familiar sight of a hurricane approaching boarded windows sandbags to prevent flooding a major hurricane bearing down on new zach and spencer are helping each other as they prepared to stay put during ida their jobs will keep them here even as many choose to evacuate. did you consider leaving a dollar or. >> yeah. yeah. we but. kind watch that play out. >> i guess there's still a chance of it. ends up getting bad late will head out as of now. we're not going to track it. >> the new orleans mayor stopping short of issuing a mandatory evacuation saying there simply isn't enough

this could be worse than ying n- katrina. >> this will be one of the strongest hurricanes to hit anywhere in louisiana since at least the 1850's. >> although leaders are confident in the city's levee system which faces its first major test since being rebuilt. the rebuilt levees near the 17th street canal are working properly leaders say millions of dollars invested to strengthen the system. that's why some people feel confident riding out item. this doesn't work. >> engineer not make any sense to, you know, this is going to work. if he can work. do you you think it will work even even despite them saying some of this could be worse than katrina in terms of of winds and just the power of the storm. >> yeah, i think i think it could handle another katrina at that. what they did here and they didn't say every can. now that goes in here. >> still, people who live here being urged to leave with time running out as night falls on the big easy. here tonight.

you can see some folks are still walking around. i mean, you can tell people are. >> doing whatever they want to most people, though, have heeded the warnings. i'd say it's by no means busy in new orleans tonight and worth noting this is actually a very significant day in new orleans history. august 29th tomorrow. that is not only is it the anniversary of katrina and not only will it be the day that i to makes landfall likely as a category 4, but it's also the 3rd time a hurricane has hit here that's very strong. isaac back in 2012. so this time of the year, folks in new orleans know what to expect. >> so jack, what are the lessons learned that during those past 2 hurricanes that people are using this time around so they can be more prepared. getting leading up to the hurricane and then also afterwards during the cleanup face. >> well, 2 parts to that answer. one would be the way individuals are preparing. i think more people are inclined to heed the warnings to get out of town. we seem to have

found fewer people who are the type to say i'm going to stick it out. we we obviously spoke to several today who did have that opinion. but i think people are quicker to listen to the warnings of authorities and say, you know what, we may as well get out of town and not risk our lives. staying here with our property. but from a leadership standpoint, from the leadership of the city from the federal government. the investment that's been made in this city in the pump system and the levees to try to strengthen and reinforce those preparing for an event like this has been very significant over the past 16 years since katrina. so this will be the first true test of that investment to see if it can hold up. >> once again, we're still timing the any idea has that changed at all on when the storm is expected to arrive. >> i believe the last estimate for the national weather service here in louisiana. was that it's actually a little earlier. now the meteorologist in charge here saying on twitter earlier he's really concerned about the impact of

the storm nervous it and believe he said on twitter that it makes him sick to his stomach to think about. so, you know, i think people are so used to hearing about bad weather here. but when you hear the guy that's in charge of determining how severe storm will be say that he's queasy about it. i think people are listening to this morning's it's also to be something to keep in mind is if this happens overnight, a lot of folks, you know, obviously going to be dangerous if you're going to be trying to get on the road. >> trying to get out of the way of the storm at that point too late. obviously, you know, at night things can you don't have the daylight. and so for a lot of folks who may be trying to ride this out or just not get out of the way or, you know, just simply trying to ride this out as the storm hit overnight that that also adds another level of danger as well, jack, what's your plan for overnight and then covering this tomorrow. >> yeah. justine and jonathan, you make a good point. just to get your question. our plan is just sort of that to try to

stay in a safe area to be able to show people what the power of this storm is bringing what it's doing to the city. but we want to be careful of flying debris and all the things that have to be thought about in terms of covering a hurricane like this. but you know, the way people are preparing his standard. but it's different at the same time that it would be for some other storms. given that this one is very severe. >> jack, thank you so much for your live reports for us tonight during conference in prime time and we'll check back with you later please stay safe while you're out there. jacqui, appreciate it. thank you, guys. all right. let's get a look at what the track that hurricane ida is going to take with our meteorologist mabrisa rodriguez. >> yeah. right now it does have sustained winds at a 105 miles per hour. it is a category 2 hurricane and it is going to make its way throughout the northern gulf states and expected to make landfall specifically in the state of louisiana with new orleans. now in that cone of uncertainty remaining as a

category 2 hurricane with wind speeds anywhere from 90 to upwards of a 110 degrees. so we're going to keep an eye on this hurricane from the kron for weather center. but you could see what the satellite and radar imagery the outer bands of the storm now starting to make its way throughout the northern gulf coast states and that well, defined eye because it is a category 2 hurricane as it churns closer towards louisiana expected to make landfall bringing life threatening storm surge anywhere from 8 to 16 inches of rain for the states of louisiana and mississippi possible tornadoes and also hurricane force winds and that 60 to 70 miles per hour range after it makes landfall continuing as a category 2 hurricane. but let's take a look at our bay area forecast because we're not tracking any marine layer influence out there. in fact, temperatures today very warm and dry air mass and it just obliterated any chance of that low and

high cloud cover of making it its way into the bay area temperatures today ranging 80's along the coast 90's in triple digit heat. as you major way in london still very foggy hazy sky out there right now with that smoke and ash in temperatures out there right now. 60's along the coast and east bay shoreline with 70's and 80's as you make your way inland. and overnight lows tonight, 50's and 60's. so we are going to cool down some along the coast. thanks to that cool sea breeze influence but daytime highs tomorrow. slight cooling trend. so we it is going to begin on sunday afternoon. this cooling trend that is going to continue through most of this upcoming week, mid 70's for downtown san francisco low 80's for the east bay shoreline and instead of triple digit heat. we're tracking mid-nineties for conquered and even nevada with san jose flirting with the 90's at 88 degrees. but we're leave won't really arrive until tuesday. that's when we're going to notice more of that marine layer presidents and that cool sea breeze.

finally bring this cooler weather and pushing the smoke and ash away from the bay area. so a few more days to go. but that's why we do have that spare the air alert extended through sunday. >> but still tracking some poor air particles even monday. but tuesday. that's going to be your best bet. so far fresh make this the summer you taught them what it means to serve. the summer of hauling happiness by the ton. and bringing home hardware by the handful. where traditions were passed down on the tailgate. and the only thing more powerful than the feeling was the truck that took you to it. make this the summer of ram. right now, get 0% apr financing, or well-qualified returning lessees can lease the 2021 ram 1500 for $309 a month. ♪ ♪

region just 3 days left until that deadline to get all americans out there still plenty of work still needed to be to get more perspective on the evacuation process and also. >> the retaliation that the united states has already taken against isis k following the bombings that killed 13 us marines. we're joined live right now by congressman john garamendi, thank you so much for joining us here on kron 4. good to be with you. so the news that was breaking tonight was that americans near the airport will being told to get away from the airport because there was a credible threat that was going to be made. but if they're away from the airport, how are they supposed to evacuate. and is this what is just going to be like for the next couple days. and. and you think that that august 31st deadline is a sticking. >> but the august 31st deadline definitely going to stick the military us beginning to withdraw. now for those americans. and there's very few still left in the country probably has a. i well 24 hours ago there somewhere south of 500 and the

expectation is that all of those would be evacuated staying away from the airport, basically means don't crowd up against dates. we do know and the last 12 hours that we have successfully brought to the airport by vehicle. 2 families that are that are now on their way to see qatar. so what we do know that they are back away. she has to continue. >> we know they want more than 110,000 people according to the state department have been removed from afghanistan. you still have 3 days is are concerned that someone will be left behind if so, we we've heard several reports of people being held safe houses unable to get past those taliban checkpoints in order to get to the airport. are you concerned or is there still fear that you may not be able to get every american who wants to get out out of afghanistan.

>> president biden has pledged that every american that wants to get out of afghanistan will get out of they said a moment ago by the end of this state. it's early morning in trouble right now. we would expect most of the remaining americans to be able to get to the airport being escorted to the airport, not having to stand in line outside the gates was so tragic it 2 days ago. so. once military operation shuts down there will continue to be every effort necessary to extract whatever americans may be remaining. do. keep in mind that some americans. up. and to this point have decided that they do not want to leave. now. they may change their mind in the days ahead. and if so, the american government will, i believe successfully evacuate them. we also know that the taliban is

likely to continue to cooperate in this regard now with regard to afghan citizens that worked with the american over the last 20 years. it becomes somewhat more difficult situation, although i do know yesterday and quite rightly today. we will continue to see. afghans are serious risk being evacuated. partly by the american military flights which will continue for another 2 to 3 days and also by domestic and charter flights flying out of that same airport. >> so isis k took responsibility for the attack that killed the 13 service members at the airport. what do you know about isis k and how big of a threat is. isis k 2 american security. >> well, certainly americans with in afghanistan are at risk of isis k. that's why a state department to the president has been so clear about the risks of crowding

the gates at the kabul airport. isis k is a very serious problem for afghanistan in the year 2 to 3 years prior to this current situation. isis k conducted horrible horrific bombings. you recall the school that was bob the hospital's most of all isis k terrorist bombings. so isis k is that wrecked to the new. the taliban government that is now attempting to establish itself and the taliban have been at war with isis k for that release. last 2 to 3 years. ryan, one situation in northern. afghanistan. the taliban was assisted by the u.s. military in a fight that they were having with prices, kate. so we're expect that to continue. and you can be sure that the american government, the

military. we'll carry out biden's promise to seek revenge. nice escape. what they did to those 13 americans and 160 other. most of them afghanistan. >> congressman garamendi, you serve on the house armed services committee along with several other. california representatives as well hearing the news that 4 of these of american military members are from california. what is just can you just put into perspective what that what you're dealing with right now, how you're feeling, you worked very closely with members of the military. have you been able to talk any of the families of the service members. what can you tell us about them. what are they saying tonight. >> i have not had a chance to talk directly to the families. i will tell you that all of us who are you. well, i think all americans and certainly those of on the armed services committee and we do deal very

directly with the report of the and so, you know, our hearts are broken. this is a tragedy. this is horrible situation. seenif. over the last several years so i know that i and my colleagues have. all too often. worked with gold star families these are the families that have lost one of their children, their and the brother n the. in the various. try to set the united states military has a geisha and not just in afghanistan but around the world. and so it's very, very difficult. it's certainly difficult for those families and for those of who reach out to the families. you could well imagine it is emotional and difficult. now our task is to make sure that the military has what it needs. to conduct its work and also to do it

safely. and we're in the process of during that this next week. this week finish up the annual national defense authorization act and certainly in that piece of legislation, there will be specific. text and programs to deal with the kind of ongoing terrorists and that will be facing the entire world. some of that from isis k isis is still in syria, although are significantly degraded. and of course, all across a large swath of africa. we have boko and other terrorist organizations and also in asia. so it's a worldwide issue. the real key here is to work with our allies and others who are threatened by terrorist organizations that sprouted up in their countries. it's a big task. it's an ongoing task in that same time. we're going to have to deal with russia and china.

you know. >> 13 american military members obviously a country owes them money. huge debt of congressman john garamendi, thank you so much for your time here on kron. 4 news at 9. >> thank you so much. and you can step today with the ever changing situation in afghanistan with scanning this qr code on your screen right now. we'll take you directly to our web page kron 4 dot com. we'll turn now to our 4 zone forecast as we take a live look outside from our mount tam candidates saturday night air quality was not so great today and we're hoping some for some improvements on sunday. let's hope so. kron 4 meteorologist mabrisa rodriguez here tonight with a look at what's on the way as you start. >> your sunday. >> yeah, we're going to notice a change in wind direction. so instead of getting more of that northerly flow that ramped up temperatures this weekend and even brought us those hazy skies. we're going to see more of a cool sea breeze in full. and so it's not going to be as hot as it was today for the 2nd half of

your weekend. still 5 to 15 degrees below boat above normal. but the good thing is we are going to see that cool sea breeze influence arriving along the coast as early as sunday morning. and those of you looking to get relief as you try to make your way into this year and just stay in the bay area because we're actually tracking worst air quality out there right now when no marine layer presents for the bay area and even for those of you in the sierra not a cloud in the sky. very hazy conditions as well because of that caliber fire actually inching closer toward south lake tahoe about 8 miles away from that city. but we are going to be under a fire weather watch starting monday afternoon through tuesday night. very dry gusty winds dropping relative humidity to as low as 10% with wind gusts of 50 miles per hour or less. so it is going to bring hazy skies and that's going to continue for this and also in addition to that temperatures

in the low to mid 80's for truckee and south lake tahoe staying in the low 80's for most of this year by monday. but then cooling down into the mid 70's. but that fire weather watch going to remain in effect pretty much all day tuesday and then don't forget labor day weekend right around the corner as well. so just plan ahead. if you are planning any trips to this year in the coming days. back to you. jonathan just seen. >> thanks so much for reason for your money. stimulus payments are going out this weekend to californians our state plans to distribute them in batches every 2 weeks between now and the middle of october individuals will receive $600 families with children receive an additional $500 to qualify. you must have filed your taxes by the 2020 file, your 2020 taxes by october 15th earn less than $75,000 in 2020, the a state resident for more than half of 2020, the u.s. state resident,
