5:02 pm
some kind of activity is the word that the shares lieutenant used, but they're working on a number of theories. they don't know exactly what happened. but they do know that this deputy knew his victims. it's just tragic story. alright henry lee reporting live for us tonight in dublin. henry thank you, some breaking news right now out of the east bay highway patrol has issued a sig alert for an overturned big rigs. all eastbound lanes of 5 80 are currently blocked sky fox up top giving us this live picture. this is between bayview and central and the el cerrito richmond area. as you can see here, vehicles are being diverted. off of 5 80 there at the bayview avenue off ramp. i drive this stretch a lot, and i'm telling you, there is construction in that area, and just recently they reconfigured the lanes. maybe that played a role. maybe a dinner that is under investigation. but as you can see again in this live picture, the traffic is at a standstill in the eastbound direction of 5 80 in richmond as we get new developments about this collision when the truck
5:03 pm
will get pulled out of here in total way. of course we will bring it to you. turning now to the historic heatwave, scorching california more than 50,000 customers across the bay area lost power yesterday because of the heat right now, more than 6500 customers remain without power. pg and e. says the majority of those customers are in the east bay more than 3500 and the south bay and peninsula . both have more than 1000 heat related outages. on top of that, more than 297,000 customers have been notified today. to prepare for potential rotating outages right now in energy emergency alert to is in effect. that means emergency energy is being requested from all resources. right now, everyone is strongly being urged to cut back on energy use until nine o'clock tonight. today is the eighth consecutive day with a flex alert one day after reaching an all time record 52,061 megawatts , the power grid is expected to see less usage, but not by much. the forecast to peak today is
5:04 pm
50,705 megawatts right now, less than 50,000. megawatts are being used. calisto says a miscommunication led to a small number of power shutoffs yesterday in alameda in palo alto power utilities were told by callous so to be prepared to implement rotating allergies. but the state grid operator never actually gave the final order to do so. we do have live team coverage for you tonight. ktvu tom baker in the east bay where events are being canceled because of the extreme heat, but of course we begin with chief meteorologist bill martin and bill not quite as still scorching. didn't feel cooler to you today, mike sure this morning indeed. yeah it's crazy . i mean, it's still hot. it's just not ours hot. so today we roll right now. it's 118 fairfield. it feels cooler if you're in fairfield than it did yesterday, during the day when it was 115 116 these are the current temperatures. yeah, it's still slaughtering. but you do notice that along the coast, right? these are current temperatures. you see the yellows and greens and that's a bit of a series. there was some patchy fog at the coast as well.
5:05 pm
that certainly helps as we look at the departure from yesterday at this time, and it already kind of started cooling yesterday at this time, that's why these departures aren't so massive. but sfo's 13 degrees cooler than it was last night, nine degrees cooler in oakland. extreme heat warning that stays in effect through thursday, and it's verifying, right. the inland bay valleys are all going to be over 100 degrees and the downside of this is we're going to pop those temperatures up tomorrow again, so that heat advisory for these areas around the bay has been, uh, hoisted again, and it's going to be in a factory tomorrow night. so kind of you know the drill fire danger as high as you know, but it's really about the extreme heat and the and the problems that can cause so tomorrow's gonna be hotter. we'll get into all that and then cooler as we go to the weekend. fortunately so we'll look into that to see you back here in a few minutes. we'll see you in a bit, bill. thank you. well, bart continues to battle. the extreme heat. triple digit temperatures are prompting officials to slow down the trains in parts of the bay area, and the heat is leading to
5:06 pm
other cancelations as well. ktvu tom vacar continues our team coverage now from dublin where a very popular event for tomorrow has already been canceled. tom. and that would be the dublin farmers market along with the one in concord, along with the one out in fairfield. just too hot. they don't want to bring people in so they can have problems, both with the food, especially the harshness on the people. i want to show you something about little temperature gun here. theoretically according to my thermometer, it's 102 degrees right here. in this area, but when you put this down on the concrete but you find out is this is about 119 degrees here out on the asphalt. it's 125 degrees, which is to say it feels like heck of a lot warmer than what the thermometer would say that it is. that is a problem. it's especially a problem for bart has to keep a super close eye on all those rails. martin was not created for a phoenix type or more
5:07 pm
extreme environment climate back in 19 sixties, when bart was designed climate change wasn't even an issue, climate, scientists and engineers say. now it's a huge issue, especially with rails, retain the heat and get so much hotter that they actually lose their integrity and what they're actually built to withstand changed its protocols. at 100 degrees or more speeds are reduced from 70 to 44 miles an hour. we would anticipate about 10 minute delays and just those really hot areas. so you know, near dublin near concord out near fremont, and then we also start doing visual inspections just to make sure the rail looks normal that there is no abnormalities with it. the good news. bart is blackout bulletproof as a lifeline facility. bart is not de energized, though bart has replaced a lot of its older rails that work continues. it must have all rail systems piece of rail. when you're getting into 50 years, you're at end of lifetime for that rail we are talking about really the end of
5:08 pm
life over the majority of our physical rail system. we are expecting temperatures to continue to rise, so it's incredibly imperative that we address this now urban areas with their vast road systems, parking lots, concrete structures and bunched together. houses are now described as heat islands that don't fully cooled down overnight. during extreme heat spells. you actually end up with these heat island effects where those things are hotter and they're radiating heat hotter. than the actual temperature outside. so you feel a much different temperature than just the forecasted temperature. when you start having entire months. of days that are getting into the 1995 101 105 and some places then you're in a whole different situation. the problem, of course, is that at nighttime unless it gets really cool. what happens is this doesn't cool down enough. all of this stuff,
5:09 pm
the buildings, the houses, the concrete, the asphalt parking lots. all of that stuff stays a little bit warmer. so in the next day comes around, it's already pretty warm, and that means that it goes up to the high temperature much more quickly and last a lot longer. reporting live tom vacar ktvu. it's like the heat is baked in out there, tom, you mentioned those heat islands. is there anything that can be done to lessen that problem? well sure. in the long run. there are a lot of things that can be done. obviously more trees would be one of those things. but for a lot of individuals, that is something that you know is going to take a long, long time or even for whole cities. it's going to do that. there are things that can be done and they're working on them and certainly shaded areas and all of that are part of it. but this is long term planning that we're talking about. so at least until we have some that are handle on this. we just have to expect it's going to be hotter for longer, and that's just pretty much all there is to it, and you
5:10 pm
showed us how the heat is affecting bart tracks. what about other transit agencies? are they having to adjust to because of the extreme temperatures? indeed to down in the south bay, they had to put away 10% of their busses because it was either too hot in the busses. air conditioning wasn't working or the busses simply weren't cooling off the other problems, of course, heat problems with machinery that comes up all the time. that's the problem for anybody to operate the machinery in hot temperatures. so, yeah, dts having some issues. as are others, but to is particularly hit by this all right, and we are not done with this heat yet. alright? tom baker reporting live for us tonight in dublin. tom thank you. and we are here to make sure you have everything you need to know about california's power problems, including the chances of blackouts in your neighborhood. we have a qr code on the bottom left hand side of your screen right there. point your phone at that code to scan it, and it will take you to our web page with information about the power outages and any blackouts in your area, another concern when temperatures are high wildfire
