little bit of wind out there right now kicking up to about 24 miles per hour in san francisco. these are numbers that i might see later in the afternoon. but already seeing it now and it is going to be a very distinct onshore flow that sticks with us foa the next couple of days. you can see what's going on here. we've got low pressure to the north of us. another low pressure that's kind of moved off towards the south and east and then high pressure that is building here offshore. so that dynamic is going to cause a little bit of this wind. you can see this front delivering some rain to the north of us behind that system is going to be some very, very gusty winds. so not just today as we get to the afternoon, you can see those numbers going up. but take you into friday. and i do think friday afternoon and evening. that is going to be the worst of it as it goes through here i'm taking would saturday, though, still remaining very gusty on saturday as well before this kind of wraps up. so the wind is really going to be the bigger issue. now, do we have a chance of a shower out there, too? as we get into tonight tomorrow? yes, we do very slight chance. but i do think the wind will be a bit more of a nuisance than the little tiny bit of rain that we might get. temperatures are

a little cool today. you can see we are still in the 50's and the 60's. so expecting another day of those below average temperatures. having said that, we've got a couple spots up a degree or 2. a couple spots down a degree or 2. these are the highs i'm expecting today. so spock could get up to about 70 degrees. but likely those low 60's around the bay and some 50's out at the coast and here in the city and san francisco will be back in a little bit. we'll talk more about our 7 day forecast, which has a very, very nice warm up and i think you'll like sounds great. thanks so much, kyra. was new laws crackdown on hidden fees? some big changes are coming for airline passengers making it easier for you to get a refund if your flight is delayed or canceled kron four's will tran explains. >> here's what you need to know. it will not protect you during summer travel when so many families, of course, take to the skies for vacation is not going to protect you but come the holidays thanksgiving christmas. it will be in place. so if you're delayed during that particular time,

expect a refund, if that's exactly what you want, no questions asked. this is the biggest sweeping change and u.s. transportation airline history and it goes into effect after so many people have complained to the government that it is so difficult to get a refund. so here are the qualifications you have to be delayed 3 hours or more domestically for an international flight 6 hours or more, but it doesn't stop there. if your bags are delayed after you land more than 12 hours, no questions asked you to. we'll get a refund for that. and that includes taxes. got a chance to talk to travelers this morning. they, of course, are on board with it. scramble to find other airlines flights to get on and then have to pay for that and not get refunded because you chose not to take that flight. so, yeah, it's been frustrating. >> airlines, they're saying that they're not crazy about this, but they were always

offering refunds. did you know about i didn't know that they're offering refunds. i just got a free neill credit on a flight that was delayed to our east recently. but i didn't know i can get a refund for the ticket. no vouchers because those vouchers or credits, actually, it saves airlines money and it keeps the money where it is because you'll come right back. >> and spend it there with the refunds. you can take that money and book another flight on another airline that possibly can take you. there are a lot quicker, according to transportation secretary pete buttigieg. he says sometimes airlines would do this. you are delayed and there was no guidelines, no set time of 3 or 6 hours. so you would go to the counter and buy another ticket and then you go back to the airline to go. i want my money. and then the airline says we never cancel your flight. that was your decision. now, there are hard guidelines, 3, 6, hours and you will get your money back.

you don't have to wait on line for ever talking to somebody or hoping to talk to somebody for a refund. it should come back within a week or so to your credit card and no junk fees, whatever they average ties is the exact price, no more lower price. and then you go book your flight, all kinds of fees come forward. and all of a sudden that deal doesn't seem like a dealhanymore. they have to be up front with the prices. back to all right. well, thank you. >> coming up, the usda announces historic new changes to school lunches slashing back on the amount of sugar served. more on the changes being served up and when we being served up and when we can ex

blocking the bay bridge in november. >> we're only ordered to 5 hours of community service and $57 fines under current state law. protesters can be fined anywhere between 100 to $500. >> sanchez wants to double those fines up to $1000 depending on past convictions because we see that these laws on the books are are not enough rihht there tie the chart. what's happening now? >> we believe in doubling that would give them mark tolls in their tool box. this bill passed a transportation committee hearing by both democrats and republicans. the california highway patrol association also in favor saying these protests prevent first responders from doing their job. this is dangerous. something needs to change. >> the executive director of the council on american islamic relations is on robbie lou is speaking out against the bill. frankly, i'm appalled that our legislators are using the pretense of transportation and public safety. >> to quell. first amendment

protected activity, the loose as if this bill gets passed into law. it won't stop protesters. the only way to deter protesters. urgent implement a permanent cease-fire. >> assemblywoman sanchez says she's hopeful her bill makes its way to the governor's desk. it next goes to an appropriations committee. i'm sara stinson reporting the studio. back to you. let's check in on our forecast now as we take a live look outside at the embarcadero. could see some the blue sky out there. let's check in now is kyla grogan for more on our weather high. hey there. yes, i thought i'd start with a look around the base. you can see that we are getting quite a bit of sunshine breaking through. still quite cloudy, though, out of half moon bay at the coast and notice down in the south bay. san jose also showing quite a few clouds. so we definitely have that cloud cover out there. temperatures have been a little bit cooler in most spots except for the north bay, where you remember yesterday was really socked in with the clouds. so that may be why we're seeing that they're not registering lower,

but elsewhere, a few degrees cooler than we were yesterday. so obviously another below average day. these are the current temps you can see spots inland like antioch are starting to warm up, getting up to about 66 degrees. well, half moon bay is still just at 55. so let's take you through future cast because there is a slight chance of showers. we work our way into tonight and tomorrow, obviously, though, by about 7.30, you're seeing mostly just cloud cover and that a little bit of that drizzle again as possible. so this is your friday morning. that's when you start to see that slight chance of a shower roll through. and again, it is very slight and taking out about the noontime hour. you see a lot of this is likely to stay towards the east of us. but that's not to say we couldn't get clipped by a shower or 2. when it's all said and done, though, it's not going to be a lot of rain. you can see models picking up on the coast getting a little bit more. but everyone else really just measuring in one hundredths of an inch. so i think the thing they're going to notice more than anything is the wind, especially as we get into tomorrow afternoon and evening where we could see those trash cans go flying as we're expecting gusts in the neighborhood of 30 miles per hour or more. so just make

sure today you're making your preparations for that. again. it will start to get gusty this afternoon as well. but i think tomorrow afternoon and evening, we're going to see the worst of it. now, once that all clears out saturday, we're going to be a little breezy still. but you notice the temperatures start to pick up. we get the sunshine back, which is really nice. and then by sunday, we're really pulling into average temperatures and look what happens as we get into next week. we're going to warm up and once again go well above average are really beautiful. start to monday, tuesday and wednesday. all right. love the sound of that. thank you. in the east bay. 35 death penalty cases in alameda county are being reviewed following allegations of racism in the justice system. >> kron four's terisa stasio spoke with legal experts who say the allegations could have sweeping consequences. >> maybe what happened here is that these people were deemed to be opposed to the death penalty. and that's how they got away with removing people based on that city on wednesday, legal experts weighing in on the bombshell dropped by alameda county district attorney pamela price. >> that a federal judge has

ordered the review of 35 death penalty cases after these scribbled notes were discovered while examining an appeal for this man, ernest, a 51 year-old was convicted and put on death row for the 1995 killing of 9 year-old lance clark and attempted murder of his grandmother. price says that the notes suggest prosecutors may have blocked female black and jewish potential jurors from serving on trials had brown is a criminal law professor at uc law. san francisco. >> this is probably just the tip of the iceberg. because there were a lot of bats and shenanigans going until california tightened its laws and what could happen next is not only could these death verdicts be set aside, but the entire case could be set aside. and some of these individuals may be given a new trial in its entirety. >> stephen clark is a former santa clara prosecutor and now defense attorney and legal analyst. while the death penalty cases are under the

microscope, both a legal analysts say that there has been sweeping changes in the past couple of decades, making jury selection more transparent. there's been a tremendous evolution and how jury selection is you have to have a legitimate reason for removing a juror. >> and you have to articulate that reason to the court. if asked. >> so we are no suspicious of removals of people on the basis not just of race or gender, but a bunch of other categories like religion, nationality. you know, a lo of other things. and moreover, when the prosecution has to provide a reason, it can't be a silly reason. it has to be a reason that stands like that. that makes some common sense. >> and that was our to resist. also reporting both legal experts say could take years before the truth is revealed on whether there was misconduct in these death penalty cases. >> i'm trevor shirley in washington today. the supreme court is hearing arguments over whether or not former president donald trump has

last year all state stopped issuing new home insurance policies in california because of the wildfires and earthquakes we've had over the years. >> last june, the company stopped writing new homeowners insurance in california due to an increased risk of natural disasters like wildfires in our recent winter storms over the last year and a half 7 of the 12 major home insurance companies in california, including allstate. limited or stop selling new policies for most fire prone areas that left some californians struggling to find any insurance coverage at all. kron 4 reached out to all state to ask when they will start selling policies again in california. they said in part, quote, we are working with the california department of insurance to improve insurance availability in the

state. once home insurance rates fully reflect the cost of providing protection to consumers. we'll be able to offer home insurance policies to more californians with timely right approvals. the use of our advanced wildflower modeling and reinsurance costs. allstate also told us they still sell auto insurance in california, but they raise those rates by 30% back in february. let's talk about our forecast now as we take a live look outside at sfo to see just a touch of a breeze out there. let's check in now with cuyler for more. yeah, we're going to see more of that today. stephanie twos, that wind starts to pick up temperature wise, though, we're about where we were yesterday. and certainly the cloud cover is a little bit better. today has some of that sun. >> breaking through as we look locally that 62 in san jose, we've been warming up a bit there, but 56 out of pacifica. you can see 62 in concord about about 64 degrees and up in saint rose about 64 as well. so again, obviously a very below average day. but i think this is the thing we're going to notice the most today, which is that the wind

is starting to pick up, particularly can see along the coast right now from point raise down to san francisco. having said that, starting to work its way inland because this is going to be a very distinct onshore flow over the next couple of days, courtesy of one of the fronts. that's to the north of us behind that front. we're going to see even breezier conditions as we get into tomorrow afternoon and evening. you can see it's delivering some showers right now up to portland in parts of washington state as well. so we've got a little wind to contend with and just give you an idea pacifica right now, you know, they're looking about 90 miles per hour wind. you can see how they catch a little break as we get later into the evening. but then tomorrow we will ramp right back up again. and i think go even higher as we head into the afternoon and evening. so just to kind of show you how this is not just a coastal thing as we go throughout the evening tonight, you can see it's going to start pushing across the bay area and then continue tomorrow. and then this is the part. i think it's going to be a little tricky here right tomorrow afternoon into the evening. see some of these gusts getting above 30 miles per hour saturday will also be kind of a blustery day

as well. you can see again, some of these numbers getting up. there should be a little bit better for those inland. but i think the co still remain very breezy on saturday. so we don't have any wind advisories out yet. for our part of the state. you can see southern california for some of the inland spots and even out of the coast there near santa barbara. they are going to be under wind advisories and a couple spots that are passes. have some wind warnings that are go through friday night where they could see gusts up to about 65 miles per hour or so. the wind is the thing. we do have a slight chance of a shower as we go into tonight and tomorrow. but i don't think that's going to add up to much of anything. it's more about the breezy windy conditions as we get to saturday, i mentioned going to say, start a little bit breezy. but once that calms down, we're off to the races with some really nice weather, right? some sunshine there. then by sunday, we're going to picking up a few more degrees and we can continue that journey as we work our way into monday, tuesday and wednesday. so i think the takeaway here is that while we've been cloudy this week, we are about to have a really nice weekend and that kind of gorgeous, lovely, sunny and above average next week. back to all right. love the sound of more sunshine. thank you.

in the bay in terms of baseball, the giants hoping to sweep the mets in their 3rd game of their series. sports director jason dumas has the highlights. >> the giants got 2 impressive wins over a really good mets team over the past couple of days and wednesday, they look for the series sweep, but because some tough news a few hours before the first pitch prize free agent blake snow was placed on the 15 day. within the doctor stream. it's been a rocky start to snell's 10 year and is sounds like he could be out way longer than just 15 days. he was set to start all wednesday, but obviously he couldn't so they had to go to a bullpen game. top of the 3rd francisco lindor came into this series struggling mightily, but he broke out of it. all wednesday. he takes on jelly deep. it's 2, nothing. mets lindor hit 2 home runs. the mets build a 6, nothing lead in the 7th tyler fitzgerald.

it's the giants on the board with this first homer of the season. but it wasn't enough. giants fall. 82. they take 2 of 3 from the mets. but after the last most people still had questions about the lake snow. he was there to answer some of them. >> this week's time even during the ball come out. so. change my focus to get healthy. >> the giants have the day off later tonight. but big news, san francisco forty-niners in the nfl draft niners pick 31st

will have full coverage from the draft all night long. that's a look at sports. >> and the nfl draft is tonight and one of the storylines we're following is that both 49 are legends, jerry rice and frank gore have sons waiting to hear their names called this draft has a lot of college players with nfl bloodlines. jerry rice's son brendan is a wide receiver who had a great season with usc. we'll probably be a mid-round choice. frank gore junior played at southern miss. he's a running back like is dead and projected to be a later round. pick was a litany of other names and the capri sun. lucas coming off a great season at rice. we know moves further, christian, he's become a powerhouse for the forty-niners. perhaps the biggest legacy name in the draft is marvin harrison junior. he's a receiver like his famous father and it's likely to go in the top 5 forty-niners general manager john lynch says he's excited to see what happens. >> some inherent pressure on who their dad it is. but

there's also some good genes. and and, you know, and i think that matters deo was out here at the local pro day and his son to rika, you know, performed really well. and that was that was pretty cool. and you could i saw him running at me and i played against, you know, a lot. and there were some in that strike that was very familiar, that it was it was something about the gate and it's crazy how those things translate. you know, it's is that just shameful is that modeling that they watch their dad? you know, it's just it's interesting to me. and but it's a fun. element to this year's draft that and i think is it's going to be interesting to watch to see how it unfolds. >> the forty-niners have 10 picks in this year's draft. and for the first time since have a first-round pick a spot. 31, most people think they'll use it to draft an offensive line. coming up next here at noon bay area filmmakers are getting the chance to see their movies on the big screen during the san francisco international film festival.
