doe cold case project, using new technology to identify bodies. it took investigators about a year to positively identify oates. his daughter says she is grateful to have answers. >> there's been no movement, no word, no nothing for this amount of time. i've buried all four of his parents, his parents and step parents, and now i finally get to bring my dad home. >> craig oates body is the first to be identified so far through the cold case program. >> so the cooling trend has begun in the bay area, and especially for parts of northern california. it will take a little while for the cooling to get to the inland bay valleys, but it's happening. this weekend will be cool everywhere. mild, everywhere is low. pressure takes over again. so we started off the last few days pretty warm. started sunday. ended up today with some temperatures like these low 90s, upper 90s, 98. in fairfield. highs tomorrow will be about 3 to 4 degrees

cooler and then 3 to 4 degrees cooler the next day and the next day. so trending down. that's because the fog sea breeze deeper going inland. and that's going to continue. we're going to see fog when you wake up tomorrow morning in lafayette. you're going to see fog in san jose. you're going to see fog san francisco. obviously and san rafael slow to burn off and temperatures warm up. so without the fog, it on the near the ground, the visibilities have gotten better. the fog is way high now, so it's pushing inland. but the visibility, which had been sort of hindered at the surface, especially on highway one the last couple of nights and mornings, is gone away. it's pretty, pretty good visibility now. so the plan here the next few days trending cooler into the bay area weekend when i come back, we'll look at some numbers in the five day. >> all right. see you soon, bill. thank you. forward progress has been stopped on a fire in sonoma county. cal fire says the gulch fire broke out around 5:00 tonight just east of petaluma. it burned 20 acres and destroyed one home as well as three outbuildings. an additional structure was also damaged. the gulch fire is 40%

gary, on where those affected are now looking to move next. hi, guys. >> midday wednesday, an animal advocate, kim mcintyre, is caring for three dogs daily, nightly and vato. >> i mean, as a kid, i always loved animals. and so this was just kind of a natural way for me to kind of make my mark in the world. >> mcintyre provides food, baths and de-worming medication for the pets owners. some of san jose's unhoused who are seeing their encampments moved. >> i got a call from these dogs owners. her name is jamie. jamie called me this morning at 7 a.m. in tears because they showed up early and the dogs were terrified. they were there with heavy equipment. there were cops that were in uniform, and so the dogs were terrified, and she wanted to see if i could take them for the day while they slept, so i could keep them safe. >> starting around 7 a.m, city crews made their way down this dusty access road that runs alongside the 87 freeway from the taylor street, crossing

south to coleman avenue. signs saying abatement work would be done this day. >> imagine that under the pressures of having thieves lurking around trying to steal your. excuse me? steal your stuff as you're moving it. you know, moving is hard enough, but the pressures that go along with moving under these circ*mstances make the violence heightened. >> san jose city officials say the signs posted are designed to keep a site that was already cleared free of new encampments. they say the tents, rvs and cardboard dwellings east of irene street are currently under the approach path of san jose mineta international airport and will be cleared next week in compliance with federal law. >> in case there's a fire and smoke comes up, it impacts air travel also. you know, encampments do attract birds. and so those birds get in the way of the flight path and make it difficult for planes to land. >> for now, the difficulty is on the ground where residents of 30

to 40 encampments have been given two weeks notice to move and have one week left before the clutter of makeshift living spaces are removed. >> i'm kind of a conduit between them and services. i know where their camps are. i know what pets they have, sweeps of encampments east of irene street are slated to begin september third. >> ahead of that wednesday afternoon protests at san jose city hall as unhoused residents demand the city stop sweeps of encampments in the college park section of san jose. jesse gary, ktvu, fox two news. >> okay, i was just looking at the fort ord profile that is acoustic profilers, sends sound waves up, and it measures the depth of the marine layer and so earlier today it was at about 800ft. now it's at about 1800 feet. so it's very thick very deep. and that's why the cooling will be more pronounced tomorro. this morning the cool the inversion was shallow. so you got kind of warm temperatures. and then by this afternoon it had lifted to 1500. now it's at 1800 feet. and it's pushing in

over the hills. that's 1800 feet down at fort ord. so that's down towards monterey. but up here it still looks like it's more like maybe 12, 1300 feet. but either way, it's getting in and it's going to cool things off. so that is the plan. and it's holding steady as you get to tomorrow, the next day or the next day. temperatures are going to continue to drop. they sort of bottom out on saturday and then hover. there sunday and monday. monday will warm up a little bit, but still below average for the most part. and we are you know, we're getting into september here. and so it's not unusual to see temperatures that are in the 80s as opposed to the mid 90s, which we've been seeing a lot of. so this is the cooler forecast. this is coming from a more of a mid-latitude. the last one last weekend came from up here. that's where you got the snow and the cooler much cooler daytime highs. this came from kind of mid-latitude. so it's a cool system cooler than what we would normally have. but it's not as cold as the last one. so the cooler weekend will stick. and then monday it will

start to warm just a little bit. these are the areas representing current temperatures. and you can see the sea breeze green pretty much all the way into walnut creek. temperatures are solid ten degrees cooler in the inland bay valleys than they were last night. at this time, said ten degrees cooler in santa rosa. there's the fog again. beautiful the way the lights of the city. so sutro tower and then how the lights of the city shine underneath. i just kind of peeking at these guys here. mike, what do you think these are out in the distance? >> yeah. jeez. so that's city. that's downtown. maybe berkeley hills. yeah. >> it must be the top end of berkeley hills? that's what i'm going to go with. there's salesforce right there. so just beautiful night out there in san francisco. fog deepening and going to get well inland tonight then burns back slowly and we are left with milder daytime highs. so here's the forecast for tomorrow. yellows and greens are 60s and 70s. pleasant oranges are 80s. 90s are pretty much on the edge of the bay area communities. most of us are going to be in the 70s and low 80s tomorrow, which would be very nice. day 93 you get to fairfield and antioch. you'll

still get those low 90s. there's a five day forecast there. it is some low 90s tomorrow and then even lower on friday and saturday and sunday into the 80s. >> good looking holiday weekend. all right, bill, thank you. the paralympics kicked off in paris with more than 4400 athletes competing this year. the games will award 549 medals across 22 sports. team usa sent a total of 225 athletes representing 39 states, including california, which has the most paralympians overall with 29 athletes, and the bay area well represented out there. in paris, there's dublin native and sitting volleyball champion bethany zummo. there's also hayward resident mohamed lahna competing in the triathlon, and skylar espinosa from menlo park competing in cycling. after giving up the lead in the seventh inning. >> the oakland a's first baseman seth brown put the team on his back in the eighth inning. we'll have that story next in sports. >> and then on the 11:00 news. oakland getting ready to say goodbye to those a's. but sacramento excited to become their new home, even if it's

on preparing for a game without those guys. but yeah, i feel when two sides want to get a deal done and usually it happen. >> again, if this continues, aiyuk could get fined more than 40,000 a day if he doesn't show up for team activities. the niners added some more depth to their wide receiver corps. they signed former 2021 second round pick terrence marshall junior, to their practice squad. marshall spent the past three seasons with the carolina panthers, where he had 64 grabs for 767 yards. his numbers may not be appealing, but general manager john lynch says he believes he will fit right in to kyle shanahan's offense. >> just a good football player. we were very fortunate to get in the building. i don't know what went on in carolina. i got on the phone with terrence, just told him about the way we do things, what we thought of him coming out of college, and that this could be a great landing spot for him. he's going to have to earn everything, but it's a fun place for receivers to come and thrive and whatever your best is, i think you'll find it

here. >> the new york giants announced that they are unretiring the number one jersey for their number six overall pick from this year's draft. wide receiver malik nabers, according to espn, nabers received permission from the family of the late ray flaherty to wear the number. the number one for the giants was the first jersey retired in pro football history. >> the oakland athletics have been playing the best brand of baseball. they have the second best record in the american league since july 14th. a couple of young fans out there enjoying some ice cream during game two of the a's and reds game. first inning lawrence butler leading off for the green and gold. butler crushes the fernando cruz pitch for the solo home run, his 16th of the season. a's lead 1 to 0. fourth inning, same score. seth brown takes sam old deep for the solo homer. his 11th of the season. a's now up two zero. eighth inning. reds up six five. oakland with two on and no one out. brown takes emilio pagan deep for the three run home run.
