near that fire. while there are no structures threatened at this time, they say the fire is burning in steep. difficult to get to to rain. that is just loaded with dry vegetation. >> fuels are really stressed meaning the vegetation, the brush timber. it's now in the september we haven't at rain for the better part of, you know, 6 to 8 months the fuels are very, very stressed. >> as of the latest update just a few minutes ago. it's estimated the fire has burned almost 6,000 acres and it is 0% contained. >> lawrence is back. you know, it's kind of troubling to think that every time we hear about a new wildfire, it's a point where we're not surprised. yeah, i know. and this is that time of year where we're really in that critical point where these fires can break out almost anywhere and well, we've got the mosquito fire now to contend with. and of course, that comes on the top of all that extremely hot, record-breaking heat. and so the winds really not that big of a problem this evening. it

is fairly calm in and around the fire, but it is also extremely dry. humidity levels down into the 20% our region and probably gonna drop off into the teens by tomorrow. so bone-dry conditions up there. and of course, you've got the guess where that wind is blowing that smoke. it's blowing right toward lake tahoe where you can see here that smoke will travel along here from the fire. and there you go. they're looking at some very, very poor air quality in the lake tahoe area. so if you're planning to head up there, be aware you're likely to see a lot of that smoke from that fire move in that direction. and we continue to see a westerly wind back into the bay area. we go and you could see some hazy conditions all around. some of the yellow showing up out there. we've got high pressure now building in again overhead. surprisingly, we've got some good conditions in live more but not so good. hazy conditions in the half. moon bay, not tomorrow. i think that ridge strengthens and that is going to trap a lot of the plude right down the surface. again. and that means poor quality, the east bay and possibly the south, a

moderate conditions in the north and still looking good along the coastline. but look at these temperatures tomorrow. okay. we cooled off today and was still 107 degrees little more tomorrow. maybe you're at 110 in livermore on the tri valley and where east to the east bay hills are talking those won 10 or so in those areas. the santa clara valley, probably temperatures near 100, maybe just over 100 degrees. only cool place again tomorrow is out along the coastline in the 70's guys. all right, lawrence, thank you very there were more heat-related service delays on bart today. trains of. >> i've got to travel at slower speeds when temperatures reach triple digits. that's to help prevent damage to the tracks or even derailment today. train services were delayed about 10 minutes or so on the antioch line, dublin pleasanton line sfo in daly, city lines and the berryessa line delays are likely to keep happening the rest of the week. >> the costa county district attorney's decision not to

criminally charge antioch police officers in the 2020 death of angelo quinto will not be the end of that matters. if the family is arguing that officer misconduct led to keep those staff. now at the family's request. >> the state attorney general has agreed to review the matter. kron four's dan kerman has the story. >> i was still with i was the mother of the late angelo quinto said contra costa county's district attorney. he's now part of a coverup since she chose not to prosecute antioch police officers for her son's death back in 2020, do not understand how to >> yeah, no cluess the we'd for all the police were called to the family home because kato was experiencing a mental health crisis. >> at issue, whether the restraint used by police cross the line and caused keep those death. >> obviously, something happened with these officers
