WHERE THE NEWS COMES FIRST. THIS IS KCRA THREE NEWS AT FIVE. PROGRESS MADE OVERNIGHT ON A FIRE THAT STARTED YESTERDAY AFTERNOON IN YUBA COUNTY. WHAT’S MOVING THE NEEDLE ON THE PONDEROSA FIRE? COMING UP IN A LIVE REPORT. PLUS, JUST IN TIME FOR THE MORNING COMMUTE, ANOTHER LANE SHIFT ALONG HIGHWAY 50 GOES INTO EFFECT THIS MORNING. THE CHANGE CHANGES DRIVERS CAN EXPECT. AND PRESIDENT TRUMP TURNING HIS ATTENTION TO HIS PART-TIME HOME. THE PLANS HE’S SET TO ANNOUNCE TO ADDRESS A PROBLEM THAT HE SEES AS A BIG ISSUE. DESPITE DATA THAT SAYS OTHERWISE. GOOD MORNING. IT IS 5 A.M. MONDAY MORNING. I’M DEIRDRE FITZPATRICK AND I’M BRANDI CUMMINGS. TODAY IS A KCRA 3 WEATHER IMPACT DAY METEOROLOGIST TAMARA BERG JOINING US NOW WITH DETAILS IN YOUR FORECAST. ANOTHER HOT DAY AND THIS WILL BE OUR FOURTH ONE IN A ROW. OF COURSE WE OFFICIALLY OVER THE WEEKEND HAD A HEAT WAVE THE FIRST ONE OF THE SUMMER. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, AS TEMPERATURES FOR THREE DAYS IN A ROW WERE AT OR ABOVE 100 DEGREES. TODAY WE’RE GOING TO STAMP ON ANOTHER DAY OF HEAT, HENCE AN IMPACT DAY IN THE MORNING TIME. IDEAL FOR DOING THINGS OUTDOORS. ONCE WE GET INTO THE AFTERNOON, WE’RE LOOKING AT HIGH TEMPERATURES 98 TO 104 RANGE. HOTTEST PART OF YOUR DAY? THOSE HOURS BETWEEN 2 P.M. AND 6 P.M. RIGHT NOW, THOUGH, IT’S PLEASANT OUT THE DOOR 59 DEGREES WHERE YOU MAY WANT TO GRAB A LAYER AND FAIRFIELD SIT AT 62 HERE IN THE CAPITAL CITY, 68 IN YUBA CITY. WE’RE AT 69 IN MODESTO, 63 IN STOCKTON, CURRENTLY AND STILL HANGING ON TO SOME OF THE MILD TEMPERATURES IN THE THERMAL BELTS. AUBURN AND PLACERVILLE INTO THE UPPER 70S. BRIGHT AND EARLY ON THIS MONDAY MORNING, ONE OF THE BIGGER VISUALS I’M WATCHING IS THE MARINE LAYER HERE ALONG THE COAST, AS THAT IS SLOWLY THICKENING UP. I DO ANTICIPATE WE’LL HAVE MORE OF NATOMAS A SEA TO WORK THROUGH THE AREA STARTING TONIGHT, AND REALLY HELP TO TRIM BACK TEMPERATURES AS WE GET INTO TUESDAY AND BEYOND. RIGHT NOW, THAT SOUTHWEST WIND STEADY CLOSE TO 30 IN FAIRFIELD AT TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE. SOUTH WIND GOING AT SEVEN IN SACRAMENTO UP THROUGH YUBA CITY. AND WE HAVE WINDS OUT OF THE EAST RIGHT NOW IN AUBURN, IN PLACERVILLE, AT ABOUT NINE MILES PER HOUR. YOUR FORECAST FOR THE DAY AHEAD. MOST IMPACTFUL PART OF IT, AGAIN, IN TERMS OF THE HEAT, IS GOING TO BE THOSE HOURS BETWEEN 2:00 AND 6 P.M., DAYTIME HIGH AGAIN IN MOST OF THE VALLEY FLOOR. RIGHT TO THAT CENTURY MARK. SO AGAIN, UTILIZE THE MORNING TIME FOR DOING THINGS OUTDOORS AS YOU NEED TO. AND IF YOU HAVE TO WORK OUTSIDE FOR A LIVING, TAKE THE SHADE BREAKS AND WEAR THE LIGHT COLORED LOOSE FITTING CLOTHES. IN THE NEXT TEN MINUTES I’LL WALK YOU THROUGH THE FORECAST. NEIGHBORHOOD BY NEIGHBORHOOD IT IS 502. GOOD MORNING BRIAN, I KNOW YOU’VE GOT SOME NEWS FOR COMMUTERS ON 50 ESPECIALLY. PRETTY QUIET HERE IN THE SACRAMENTO AREA RIGHT NOW AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY ON INTERSTATE 80, HEADING OUT TOWARDS CAPITOL AVENUE. THINGS PRETTY QUIET THERE. NO INCIDENTS TO REPORT ALONG THE 80 CORRIDOR AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY INTO SACRAMENTO. AND THEN AGAIN, JUST A LITTLE SLOWING AS YOU GET OUT ONTO THE CAUSEWAY NEAR CHILDS. BUT SO FAR NO INCIDENTS REPORTED THERE. NOW WE’RE GOING TO HEAD OVER TO MADISON AND DEWEY. THERE’S A CRASH THERE. A CAR RAN INTO THE BACK OF A TOW TRUCK. ALSO SOME DAMAGE TO A WATER PIPE THERE. SO MINOR DELAYS THERE ON MADISON, I-5 AND 99 CLEAR AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY IN FROM ELK GROVE THROUGH STOCKTON. ALSO CLEAR ON THE CROSSTOWN FREEWAY FIVE AND 99 LOOKING OFF TO WESTBOUND HIGHWAY FOUR. CLEAR THERE, BUT ON HIGHWAY 12, RIGHT NEAR THE SOUTH RIVER RIGHT THERE, THERE IS A BIG RIG FIRE EARLIER, AND THEY’RE STILL CLEARING THAT UP. WE’VE GOT A TOW TRUCK OUT THERE TO GET THAT OUT OF THE WAY, BUT SO FAR WE’RE NOT SEEING ANY DELAYS. THEY DID HAVE SOME LANE CLOSURES WHILE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS THERE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THAT’S CLEARED UP. 205 OVER THE TOP NOW AT 30 MINUTES. 580 A 27 MINUTE RIDE. 99 FROM MODESTO TO MANTECA, A 12 MINUTE RIDE. AND THEN AS YOU TAKE A LOOK AT SACRAMENTO, 80 OUT OF ROSEVILLE, A TEN MINUTE RIDE, 50 OUT OF FOLSOM, 14 MINUTES THERE, NINE MINUTES ON 99 FROM ELK GROVE AND I-5. A TEN MINUTE RIDE BACK TO YOU, BRIAN. THANK YOU. WELL, EVACUATION ORDERS REMAIN IN PLACE THIS MORNING AS CREWS CONTINUE TO BATTLE THE PONDEROSA FIRE IN YUBA COUNTY. LET’S GO AND TAKE A LOOK NOW AT THE EVACUATION MAPS FOR THE AREA THAT’S IN RED IS THE EVACUATION ORDERS. THE MAP SHOWS YOU THE AREAS BETWEEN WILLOW GLEN ROAD AND LAKE MILDREDA, WHICH ARE STILL UNDER EVACUATION ORDERS. NOW, THE AREAS THAT YOU SEE IN YELLOW ARE EVACUATION WARNING. PEOPLE LIVING THERE SHOULD BE READY TO LEAVE AT A MOMENT’S NOTICE. THERE IS AN EVACUATION CENTER SET UP AT THE CENTER, WHICH IS ON MARYSVILLE ROAD. GROUND CREWS SPENT THE NIGHT WORKING ON THE FRONT LINES OF THE PONDEROSA FIRE. WE ALSO KNOW THAT AIR RESOURCES WERE CRITICAL IN THE EARLY STAGES FIGHTING THE FLAMES. KCRA 3’S MELANIE WINGO JOINING US NOW LIVE FROM MCCLELLAN AIRPORT WITH WHAT THE CREWS ARE DOING TO TRY TO GET THIS FIRE TAKEN CARE OF. WELL, IT’S REALLY THAT COMBINATION OF AIR AND GROUND RESOURCES WORKING IN TANDEM THAT ARE TRYING TO BUILD CONTAINMENT LINES AROUND THE PONDEROSA FIRE. SO OVERNIGHT, CAL FIRE SAYS THAT THREE FLYING HELICOPTERS WERE TASKED WITH MONITORING THE AREA AFTER THE FIXED WING AIRCRAFT THAT WORKED ALL AFTERNOON WERE RELEASED FOR THE NIGHT. THE FIRE, BURNING IN STEEP, RUGGED TERRAIN OFF DIRT ROADS. AND THAT’S MADE IT DIFFICULT TO ACCESS, ACCORDING TO CAL FIRE. THAT’S WHY THAT INITIAL ATTACK FROM ABOVE WAS CRITICAL. AND OF COURSE, KCRA THREE CAPTURED SOME VIDEO OF THAT AIR ATTACK THAT WAS HAPPENING ALL THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON. CAL FIRE TELLING KCRA THREE THAT IT WILL BE WATCHING CONDITIONS AND THINKING AHEAD TO WHAT MAY FACTOR INTO THEIR FIREFIGHTING EFFORTS. THERE’S STILL A LOT OF UNKNOWNS OUT THERE THAT WE’RE DEALING WITH, SO SPOTTING AHEAD OF ITSELF AND ON EITHER THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT FLANK OF THE FIRE IS STILL A CONCERN FOR US. SO RIGHT NOW, JUST TRYING TO GAIN FULL CONTAINMENT AND WRAP THOSE SPOTS AS WE GO. AND BACK OUT HERE LIVE AT THE CAL FIRE AVIATION MANAGEMENT CENTER. YEAH. THIS FIRE AS OF RIGHT NOW, THEY ARE WORKING ON IT. THEY ARE GAINING CONTAINMENT, BUT ITS CAUSE IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION. REPORTING LIVE AT SACRAMENTO MCCLELLAN AIRPORT. MELANIE WINGO KCRA THREE NEWS THIS MORNING. THANK YOU. MELANIE CREWS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ARE FIGHTING THE LARGEST WILDFIRE THAT’S BURNING IN CALIFORNIA.

POTTS WITH CAL FIRE SAYS THEY’RE TRYING TO PREVENT EVACUATION FATIGUE. THE ISSUE WARNINGS OR ORDERS FOR FOLKS, THEY MAY FIND SOME OTHER TYPE OF SHELTER, BUT THEN ONCE WE ALLOW THEM BACK IN AND IF CONDITIONS WERE TO CHANGE AND WE ISSUE ANOTHER ORDER FOR THEM TO LEAVE, THEY MAY NOT BE SO INCLINED TO DO SO GIVEN THEIR PREVIOUS EXPERIENCES. MEANWHILE, AS CREWS CONTINUE BATTLING THE GIFFORD FIRE, THE SLO COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE IS TRYING TO PREVENT LOOTING AND BURGLARIES IN EVACUATED HOMES, AND THEY’RE INCREASING PATROLS IN THAT AREA.
