parts of the east bay, it had a magazine teed of 3.3. the quake was 3 miles deep, there were no injuries or damage reported. some people believe we are in the middle of earthquake weather and that jolt on the fault only confirmed that suspicions. we have amm marie with the united states geological survey. >> is this earthquake weather. >> no we have earthquakes in all weather. >> can the weather or heat have any effect? we have these pictures from santa rosa where the sidewalk buckled. we see signs of heat causing the surfaces to stretch, does that have an effect on the

earth's surface? >> no. this quake occurred 3 miles into the earth. what happens at the surface does not have bearing on what happens in the earth. >> but the problem is predicting the quakes, how do you smain what cause ka -- explain what causes an earthquake. >> this occurred on the hayward fault. the hayward fault is active. we expect these types of splawl quakes to occur along that fault. it's normal, typical activity. it's typical of the cycle we expect. while we do not predict ert cakes, we have a forecast -- earthquake, we have a forecast of a 6.2 magnitude quake happening in san francisco in

the next 20 years. >> with the napa quake we just had, these are pictures we are showing of napa, that was a summer time quake, why is there a theory that hot weather is associated with earthquakes. >> it's because people talk about it. but there are quakes happening in cold and rainy and dry climbs. is just human nature to try to understand what we do not understand. people like to associate things and try to make it make sense but we have tested it and there is fo case for earthquake weather. >> i will kill that theory. where do we stand on this prediction with call foreign. we are trying to get to where japan is, where we could have a few seconds notice before a

quake. >> we are not able to tell you when it will occur but we are able to warn you before the shaking. that's something we are working on now and it's in development. we hope to roll it out within the next couple of years, it's coming up and we are working on it to make it more similar to the japan program. >> that will be a good thing. >> it will be exciting when it happens. >> thank you for putting to rest that myth. we will not talk about it any more. thank you. thank you. lets go over to bill in the weather department. >> i tried to tamp that myth down years ago. it's interesting, it goes back to ancient greece, socrates wrote a book, it was mostly about the stars and the

planets. they believed that, and in the book he writes about this, that hot winds blowing beneath the earth creates the earthquakes, i think that it started with the ancient greeks. >> that's earthquake country there too. >> yes, she's right. what happens 10 miles deep is not impacted by the temperatures here, but i think that socrates started that a long time ago. >> we have a heat advisory and an excessive heat warning that goes into effect tonight and tomorrow. it's going to be hot. it's hot today but we had this heat advisory since sunday. it's long. a long successive string the heat advisories. it's through tomorrow night.

cooler in santa rosa, overall, slightly warmer today and tomorrow, significantly warmer, mostly around the bay, the bay will notice the biggest warm up tomorrow. you see this live camera shot at the bridge, the high pressure is dominating and creating compressional heating which sets us up for potential records. the fog is not in the forecast for tomorrow. the forecast highs are 100s. we will see a lot of 104 degrees to 106 degrees in the inland valleys. tomorrow, san jose, 68 degrees in the morning. then hot, 87 by lunch time. we will talk about the afternoon highs, 98 degrees in san jose but it's going to feel, especially at the street level, like 130 degrees, right on the streets.

department of justice report. the recommendation talked about the city of san francisco considering employing the tasers, to do that is to work with all key stake holders and community members to make an informed decision and to listen to top experts. our working group has gathered you -- gathered up a number of top experts. we want community members to be informed about where tasers are today. there is no voting tonight. it's all about listening and scition, i do not know when it's going to come to a vote but it's on the agenda tonight. >> i have been here for 10 years, every chief in that time has asked for tasers. each time the commission ras

rejected the proposal. new police chief scott has appeared on the four and he in fact backs the use of tasers. >> i came from an organization, from the day i started to the day i left where tasers were on option. i believe in them. i have seen them work beautifully, there have been times where they have not worked beautifully, people have lost their lives but they are designed to save lives. >> reporter: doctor marshall, do you think that because the new chief wants them and the department department of justice feels that there is a need for them, do you think that they will be approved this time around. >> i have no idea. i am always open to taking a fresh look at things and seeing where things stand today.

i cannot remember the last vote, but we will have to see. because of the department of justice report and the fact that the chief is, you know, wanting to take a look at them, it's good but how it will turn out, i cannot predict. >> thank you doctor. we at channel two will be following this as it moves forward. >> thank you. a berkeley city council meeting ended in chaos after protestors staged a demonstration against a controversial police training program. despite the opposition, the counsel voted in favor of the berkeley police taking part in operation shield. several hundred people took over the meeting, storming the stage as the counsel was voting on whether or not to traik part

pointed roof tops is the monarch truck company. it's not burning those buildings but its burning towards those buildings. the level of smoke has been sustained for the last five minutes. >> yes, that's the first thing that you look at, the smoke plume, it's not going vertical. you see these fires and you create a surface low produced by the fire, it creates it's own winds, the prevailing winds are not an issue but it's an interesting shot. i am looking at what is involved, do we have trees or brush, it's tough to see from this angle. we have not seen a lot of activity from the firefighters. but we will watch it, you know what is weird, i talked about this for tomorrow, i have seen

this happening, a broken bottle out in the woods will spark a fire. you do not need a spark, you can have a fire spontaneously if there is reflection coming from the sun through a bottle at the right angle. >> that's what we saw a few days ago with that fire, items spontaneously combusted. >> it was the compression. >> things can catch on fire from being hot with the compression. imnot saying this happened here but the point is that the fire conditions are through the roof and it takes almost nothing to start a fire. with that said, we have the

heat advisory in effect. we have an excessive heat warning going into effect for the areas in purple. it's a big deal. the biggest deal is that this fire is working on five or six days. not around the bay but in the inland and your valleys, it's been downright hod. like the western united states, -- downright hot. like the western united states and lower california. you see the greens, that's the cooler air, but tomorrow is going to be a hot day. you know what i did, i maize an orconditioner out of an ice chest. i will show a picture of it. >> did it work? >> yes, but the drag is, you have to get ice.

i have a work out room and i do not have air conditioning, but it works well. >> ken suggested that i do that, i said, no way that works. >> my friend did did it. she bought an ice chest and she went online and she built her own air conditioner, you can go online too you tube and find out how to build it. >> the nice thing is, it does work. my ice block lasted five hours, the trick is you need a pretty good sized fan. you drill a hole for the fan, fill an old ice chest with a block of ice, the fan employees it out there and it lasts for five yours. >> okay. -- five hours. >> okay. >> i will show you a picture.

>> i want to see that. when the weather is this hot, a lot of people try to cool off heading to the pools or the beach or making their own air conditioners but some head to the heat. in death valley, people are coming far and wide to feel the heat there. >> reporter: with the wind going is more like a convection oven. park rangers in death valley expect 100 thow tourists a month during the summer. the highest temperature ever recorded in america was in death valley, 143 degrees, back in 1913. we have the public information officer for death valley national park. thank you for joining us, what is the temperature right now?

asians. this morning i was out and chatting with people, they were sweating up a storm at 9:00 in the morning but they were happy about it. >> reporter: how hot will it get this week there? >> yesterday was probably our hottest day, the weather service recorded a high of 127, today is a bit cooler. the rest of the week, the highs are predicted to be 125. it's been a solid week of really hot temperatures, it's a bit unusual, we usually go over 123 or four days a year. to have it for a week straight is strange. >> reporter: a woman burned her feet, tell us what happened with that. >> it was several weeks ago,

earlier in june, a woman walked out to the mesquite sand dunes, she was wearing flip flops and lost them and had to walk back to her car, the temperatures were 120 but the surface is it hotter on a day like that. she got third degree burns on her feet. she had to go to a burn unit. >> reporter: with the crowds that you are getting right now, are there constant medical situations that you have to respond to. >> you know, it's so hot that i think that people are not taking the risk of going out and hiking very far, we had a few heat related incidents but nothing too serious, when it's cooler, people are more likely to hike and get into trouble. 110 does not feel that bad so you may walk into a canyon and
