why? the board says it's standing by the decision despite criticism and a lawsuit, and your electric bills will soon look different. >> how the utilities commission is changing p-g-and-e's rates to push for more electric cars and appliances. >> good morning. it's friday, may 10th. i hope you wore your sunblock yesterday. >> i know it was beautiful. you were out. i was out and you were all out. >> everybody was out. yeah. another gorgeous day today. so we'll repeat yesterday if not get even hotter inland. here's a live look from sutro tower. one of the changes though, this morning, is that the fog is back here as it pushes through the golden gate. right now it's a very thin layer of fog, so it actually will evaporate later on this morning, but it will lead to a little bit of a cool down along the immediate coastline. however, inland we're getting even hotter today with 90s returning for the first time this year. another big change this morning compared to yesterday. we don't have those offshore winds. it's much lighter winds out there right now. the humidity is much higher than yesterday and that is leading to temperatures this morning. cooler than yesterday,

spots in the 40s in our coolest areas around the bay shoreline. we're mainly starting out in the mid 50s as we get you out the door on this friday. so hello santa cruz live look from the beach. a lot of sunshine today. the biggest takeaway? the coast is staying a little cooler today. in the 60s, but away from the coast we're getting even hotter. 80s return around the bay shoreline. then inland we're in the low 90s this afternoon. hi, sue. >> good morning drew. good morning everyone. and i will say we have better news on the peninsula. let me update first though, a couple of things. we've got an accident over the altamont pass near north flynn that's out of lanes. it is not blocking, but it is adding to that 50 minute drive time up and over the altamont into livermore. now the we do have a few lanes open south 101 near san antonio. we had all lanes blocked with two separate accidents for about a half an hour. as you can see, we're now out of the purple and into the red, which, believe it or not, is an improvement. so traffic is starting to recover. you will see some northbound slowing on

101 through mountain view as well, but better news here and we'll update you in just a couple of minutes. >> thanks to this morning. president biden is back in the bay area. he's here for a series of campaign events that are part of a west coast trip. abc seven news reporter ryan curry is live on the peninsula. ryan the president, likely to be greeted by protesters. >> hey good morning reggie. that is right. there is going to be a demonstration from pro-palestinian activists throughout the location where they are set to start gathering. they're calling on the president to stop sending military aid to israel. this comes after he himself has said that he will possibly withhold all aid going into israel if they proceed with the full invasion of rafa, the southern city in gaza. but president biden, arriving yesterday at moffett field, where he is now staying in san francisco, he boarded a helicopter to get there last night. he is here to raise money for his reelection campaign. the last time he was here in the bay area, he was doing the exact same thing. we spoke with political, political science experts who tell us the reason why presidential candidates come

to this area is because there's a lot of wealthy people here who get involved in presidential donations for elections. >> it's a cliche, but we are the nation's piggy back for these campaigns. there's a lot of people here with a lot of money and a lot of interest in who wins these elections. campaign donations are a way of showing how well you're doing. it's almost like people are voting with their dollars. >> the white house has not disclosed location of either fundraiser, but it is believed one will be in portola valley and the other will be in the south bay around palo alto. the first lady was also in the bay area yesterday visiting marin county. she is heading to southern california today. the protesters say they plan to create a human billboard. they want to showcase on the road, where the president will be traveling and the donors will be traveling. now, after the president is done here, he'll be heading up north to seattle, where he will continue his fundraising. but for now, reporting live in portola valley. ryan curry, abc seven news. >> ryan, thank you. it's official. oakland international

airport has a new name despite major opposition, including a lawsuit from san francisco. the port of oakland, which is in charge of the airport, voted on moving forward with the name change. they released this new logo. it's now called san francisco bay oakland international airport. the board says it's about location, location, location. they conducted research. it showed a name change, could attract more passengers to oakland by letting them know the city is another gateway to the bay area, and a name came. >> change can certainly do that. that brings the knowledge for people. pass the mississippi to really understand where oakland sits in the greater bay area and also internationally, really of understanding from people from around the world of where oakland is in this greater bay area. >> but the next steps are likely to play out in court. the san francisco city attorney's office issued this statement to abc seven news, saying it is disappointing that oakland chose to ignore our multiple offers to collaborate on an alternative name and avoid litigation. we have strong federal trademark infringement claims against

oakland, and they have given us no choice but to move forward with the next steps in our lawsuit. >> in the south bay, bart's long wait extension into downtown san jose is getting a big financial boost. half $1 billion from the federal government to get this project dt silicon valley extension is expected to cost more than billion. phase two will take trains from the berryessa transit center in north san jose through the downwn, and then up santa clara. vta is overseeing this construction, the agency's general manager says the announcement is significant for how the feds view this project. it's the first time they have kicked in money for it. >> it is a nationally important project. it is one of the most important projects in this budget, is the second highest project with an allocation. >> the project has faced escalating costs and delays. the six mile, four station line is expected to open in 2037.

>> a big change is coming to the way p-g-and-e's can bill its customers. the california public utilities commission voted unanimously to approve a flat monthly fee of $24.15 that will be in addition to what they pay for their actual usage. commissioners also approved an electricity rate decrease of 5 to $0.07 per kilowatt hour. the changes will be rolled out between the end of next year and the beginning of 2026. commissioners say the reduction could be an incentive for people to switch to electric vehicles, and appliances. >> so for someone who electrifies their home and vehicle, they would save an average of up to $44 a month compared to the status quo. and the reason customers are financially better off is because the new billing structure will reduce the price per unit of electricity by roughly 5 to $0.07 per kilowatt hour. >> a consumer advocacy organization called turn, short for the utility reform network, supports the changes, saying they promote stability,

especially in areas with more extreme weather. but its members say more needs to be done to lower rates. >> well, following the story of a man accused in two hit and run crashes, including one that injured a child walking to school in san francisco, he now faces several charges. rodney jefferson pleaded not guilty yesterday. he was charged with six counts, including reckless driving, causing injury, evading police and driving on a suspended license. he is being held without bail. the 54 year old was arrested near the exploratorium on tuesday morning and listen to this. police say jefferson hit a person in the tenderloin, then drove away. prosecutors said he went back to that scene and threw a $20 bill at the victim. police say he then hit a 14 year old student in a school crosswalk in north beach while trying to escape officers. >> abc news has learned. donald trump's former fixer michael cohen, will take the stand in trump's criminal trial on monday. his testimony will come

after a dramatic week in the manhattan courtroom. yesterday, adult film star stormy daniels wrapped up a second day of testimony that was filled with a tense cross-examination. defense attorneys questioned daniels about her alleged sexual encounter with trump at a lake tahoe area hotel in 2006, which trump denies. daniels claims she became lightheaded and felt the room spin after seeing trump in his underwear. the defense was not convinced that story was true. >> another thing that was just totally not didn't believable was like, and i went to the bathroom at our dinner, and when i came out of the bathroom, he was there just in boxers and a t shirt and i almost fainted. >> trump's defense team filed a motion for a second motion for a mistrial, saying daniels testimony was so graphic that it was extremely prejudicial. the judge denied that motion. >> 609 on our friday, we'll take you into the east bay hills, looking towards the west, and you can see we have clear skies.

we are tracking a thin layer of fog along the immediate coastline. pretty much from half moon bay up towards the golden gate bridge. it's just an indication the coast will actually see cooler weather today. but it's a different story inland. we're actually getting hotter inland compared to yesterday. inland today we're going into the low 90s for the first time this year, looking at highs today versus the forecast, we will find those areas anywhere from about 11 to 17 degrees warmer compared to their averages in the 60s and 70s. look at your weather wellness today. air quality good to moderate. pollen levels are medium to high. now your main offenders are grasses and trees and the uv index and eight out of an 11 that is very high. put on that sunscreen because we'll have a lot of sunshine today. a little bit cooler for the coast compared to yesterday, but we're even hotter away from the coast where those 90s appear from concord, antioch to fairfield to santa rosa, it's just warm around the bay shoreline with most of us going into the 80s,

so we have another warm one on the way today. it stays hot inland here tomorrow, and then we find a minor area wide cooldown for sunday, but it's still looking nice for mom's on mother's day. we're back! >> thanks, drew. san francisco has just approved its biggest development since the pandemic. how stonestown galleria will be transformed to include a new neighborhood. but first, pressure on half moon bay. why the governor is threatening legal action against the city surrounding farm worker housing and another big name change, this time in the south bay. the
