not? and his delegation from fukuoka and then later this evening, we will be going to lakeside park right on the shores of lake merritt to unveil a beautiful mosaic that honors the 60th anniversary. this is oakland's longest-standing sister city relationship in particular. we love the exchanges. the homestays that our students have with each other's families. some have had 3 generations of exchanges with fukuoka. well, is it cities become a sister city? you know how that process works. there's there's a process by which i'm a citizen group has to be formed in the city. we have a very active fukuoka sister city association here in oakland. but this started in the year 1962 in part because council member gallup, you know what? have frank ogawa plaza in front of city

hall named for he was from fukuoka and he started this sister city relationship 60 years ago is incredible and of course, before we let you go couple asked questions here for where are we now with the howard terminal project? we are still swinging for the fences. i'm working very hard to get a complete deal in front of the city council by the end of the year, making sure that all of the infrastructure improvements that will make sure the project is successful and that we safeguard the operations of our port, that all of those are funded and ready to be delivered in time. and that is definitely going to rely on some grants coming through. we have a lot of applications in and we're hoping to hear some good news this fall, especially from that federal infrastructure funding that president biden signed into law, historic levels. and we want to see some of those

dollars in oakland know, right? we're going to stay tuned for what happens with that. thank you so much. mayor schaff. a pleasure speaking with you today. >> thank you. all right. switching gears now talking a bit about our forecast right now. taking a look at the weather radar tracking the possibility of fairly of dry lightning strikes. >> lots of fire agenciis on high alert over this over a potential major fire because of those potential lightning strikes. a kron 4 meteorologist kyla grogan here with more on what we need to know about kyla. yeah. the first thing to know is help the firefighters out. everybody be smart today and every day as we into the next few months, of course, we're getting into our fire season. so. >> this is not what you want to see the potential for some of these dry lightning strikes. unfortunately of monsoonal moisture that is starting to kick that off. the good news is only 2 strikes so far seen you've been what you cloud to ground, right? that's the dangerous when the rest of it seems to be cloud to cloud or within the clouds. so that's that's not as dangerous because it doesn't reach the ground here. you can see how some of these of rolled over the santa cruz mountains and

also i saw a few roll across the bay. you can see that showing up there. so we're going to have to look out for this throughout the day today. opand things are going to be little bit better as we go into tonight. live camera outside shows you, though, in san francisco is kind of a beautiful day out there. a few clouds out there right now. those clouds giving us little cooler spots as well. 63 degrees right now in san francisco. you can see just 58 at half moon bay, morgan hill about 83. there is still some heat in the east bay dublin right now at 92 degrees. 87 in brentwood. and you can see as we head up to the north bay about 79 to santa rosa say to later, though, 87 degrees. so some people are still going to be pretty warm out there. we do have some moderate air quality starting to show up as well. this is because of the smoke that's coming down from the north. we'll see a little bit of an improvement in that tomorrow. but you see the smoke tracker here as i push it forward. it doesn't really clear out. we really need the winds shift direction to really get it out of here. so it's not going get more intense, but it's not. dunn also want to point out we do still have a heat advisory for those of us. a county that goes until 08:00pm. so the rest of our viewing area now is out of that. but still looking out for that heat. so

looking at about 71 in san francisco today, 77 in oakland, 88 in san jose. i'll be back in a bit. we'll talk about your future forecast. back to you, thanks very much. kel and of course, and a great reminder that we can all do our part to prevent the further spread of those dangerous wildfires. certainly not easy fighting a fire with all this hot weather out there. >> you can stay connected with the kron. 4 for the latest weather conditions as we get through this heat. >> scan the qr code right there on your screen. you're going to be taken to our website. we can find current conditions in your neighborhood and of course, get the 7 day forecast. in national news. we're following primary election results across the country as washington correspondent trevor shirley explains, some major republican candidates lost their chance to compete in the november midterms. >> well, this was probably the least surprising development from last night's primaries. polls have shown for weeks cheney was likely to lose her race to harriet hageman who was backed by former president

trump for years. cheney has denounced the former president calling him a danger to democracy. she's also vice chairwoman of the january 6 committee. in turn, the former president often rails on cheney and celebrated her loss last night. a gunman be cheney for wyoming's only house seat with around 66% of the vote to cheney's roughly 29% with cheney's to feed only 2 of the 10 house republicans who voted to impeach trump will appear on ballots this fall. the other 8 were defeated in primaries or didn't seek re-election. but not all trump critics lost last night in alaska. republican senator lisa murkowski advance to the general election along with general election along with her trump backed opponent, ranked choice voting system. murkowski is expected to pull in even more support among democrats and independents. this fall, murkowski voted to convict trump during his second impeachment trial despite their different

outcomes last night, both were koski and cheney shared a similar message. >> 2 years ago, i won this primary was 73% of the vote. i could easily have done the same again. the path was clear. but it would have required that i go along with president trump's lie about the 2020 election. it would have required that i enable his ongoing efforts to unravel our democratic system and attack the foundations of our republic. and so i hope that we do not become the party of one person. i hope that we do not become the party of donald trump. we need to be the party of those strong values. young women like me into a party. several decades ago. and after being out of politics for more than a decade, former alaska governor sarah palin is back. >> she'll appear on midterm ballots for alaska's open house seat. palin has trump's endorsement show face another republican and a democrat in
