FALL WEATHER WISE NOW I'M SO
ENJOYING THESE COOLER TEMPS I
KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT I

THERE. ONE OF OUR NEIGHBORS HAS
A BIG SCARY CLOWN AND IT SAYS
FREE HUGS YOU GOT GO THERE. NO
MASK OR ANYTHING EITHER. GOOD
MORNING, EVERYBODY. VIEW ABOUT
WOODSON LOOKING OUT TOWARDS
THE EAST. HOW PRETTY IS THAT
ALL THESE COOL COLORS COMING UP
AS WE WAIT FOR THAT SUN TO COME
ON UP AND YET CLEAR CONDITIONS
EAST OF OUR MOUNTAINS. BUT MOST
OF THE COUNTY RIGHT NOW WAKING
UP TO CLOUD COVERAGE. A MARINE
LAYER IS HERE AND THAT'S A SIGN
OF THIS CHANGE. THIS COOLING
THAT WE'RE GOING TO EXPERIENCE
THROUGHOUT THE WEEK.
TEMPERATURES CLOSER TO NORMAL
TODAY STILL ABOUT FOUR TO FIVE
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. BUT WE'LL
SEE THAT AND CONTINUE TO DROP.
GRADUAL COOLING IS HAPPENING
AND THEN WE'RE ALSO WATCHING
FOR A SYSTEM THAT'S ALREADY
FORMED UP THERE NORTHERN CANADA
AND IT'S EXPECTED TO BRING US
SOME LIGHT SHOWERS HERE BY THIS
WEEKEND JENNY. SO IT'S NOT TOO
BAD TRAFFIC WISE. GOOD MORNING

AND I WANT TO TAKE YOU WAIT TO
THE EAST HERE DE HACER ROAD. IT
LOOKS LIKE WE'VE GOT REPORTS OF
SOME FLOODING, SOME HIGH
STANDING WATER. SO BECAUSE OF
THAT SINGLE LANE IS BLOCKED
RIGHT AT SLOANE CANYON ROAD
FROM THERE. I WANT TO GIVE YOU
SOME GOOD NEWS. I'VE BEEN
MENTIONING THAT CRASH ON THE 15
NORTHBOUND AFTER SCRIPTS

BATTLEGROUND TRACKER POLL SHOWS
PRESIDENT TRUMP TRAILING
THE FORMER VISE PRESIDENT JOE
BIDEN IN WISCONSIN A STATE
PRESIDENT TRUMP NARROWLY IN ONE
IN 2016. HE ALSO IS TRAILING
BIDEN IN ARIZONA BUT THERE IS
STILL PLENTY OF TIME FOR
THE RACE TO HEAT UP AS WE ARE
STILL JUST TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM
ELECTION DAY. NEWS IT'S EVAN
IRANI IS LIVE WITH A KEY
DEADLINE FOR VOTERS TODAY. GOOD
MORNING, EVAN. GOOD MORNING.
STOLEN ERIC, A LOT OF
COMPETITIVE RACES ARE KIND
COMING DOWN TO THE WIRE AS
POLLS CONTINUE UP UNTIL
ELECTION DAY AND TONIGHT IS A
VERY IMPORTANT DEADLINE IN THAT
2020 ELECTION RACE. SO TONIGHT
IS THE DEADLINE TO REGISTER
ONLINE TO VOTE IF YOU HAVE NOT
ALREADY REGISTERED IN SAN DIEGO
COUNTY. MILLIONS HAVE ALREADY
RECEIVED THEIR BALLOTS AND A
LOT OF THOSE PEOPLE HAVE
ALREADY SENT THEIR ALREADY
COMPLETED BALLOTS IN. WHETHER
THAT BE BY A DROPBOX LOCATION
OR POSTMARKED AND THE IMPORTANT
THING THAT THE COUNTY REGISTRAR
HAS SAID IS THAT IT IS GREATLY
APPRECIATED IF YOU HAVE YOUR
BALLOT ALREADY. IF YOU ALREADY
FILLED IT OUT, SEND IT IN
EARLY. GET IT ON TIME AND MAKE
SURE THAT YOU'VE DONE
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO BY
THE DEADLINES. IF YOU HAVE NOT
VOTED YET AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED
YOUR BALLOT THEN YOU MAY NEED
TO CHECK YOUR VOTER
REGISTRATION STATUS. AND AGAIN
TODAY WILL BE THAT LAST DAY
THAT FINAL DAY TO REGISTER IN
SAN DIEGO COUNTY ONLINE AND
TAKE A LISTEN TO. THAT
REGISTRAR HAD TO SAY IF YOU
WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS
ELECTION TOMORROW AS
THE REGISTRATION DEADLINE.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL AFTER
THE DEADLINE TO PARTICIPATE
BECAUSE AGAIN WHAT THAT DOES IS
JUST CREATE MORE TIME FOR YOU,
MORE TIME FOR INDIVIDUALS THAT
NEED TO PARTICIPATE LONG ALONG
PARTICULARLY LONG LINES ON
ELECTION DAY AS WELL AS
THE DAYS LEADING UP TO IT. LIKE
HERE. SO THAT'S MICHAEL VU.
THAT WAS AS HE SPOKE TO US
YESTERDAY. HE'S THE COUNTY
REGISTRAR AND SAYS THAT WHILE
YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO TURN IN
YOUR BALLOT OR VOTE ON THE DAY
OF THE ELECTION, THEIR OFFICES
GREATLY APPRECIATE THOSE WHO
GET THEIR BALLOTS IN EARLY. SO
THIS YEAR IS DEFINITELY ONE FOR
THE BOOKS IN THAT CASE MORE
THAN 27 MILLION HAVE ALREADY
SUBMITTED THEIR BALLOTS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY. THAT'S MORE THAN
SIX TIMES THE NUMBER THAT HAVE
VOTED AT THIS TIME IN 2016. NOW
THIS DEADLINE DOES NOT ONLY
APPLY TO THOSE WHO HAVE NEVER
REGISTERED TO VOTE BEFORE.
YOU'LL ALSO HAVE TO FOLLOW
THE DEADLINE FOR MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT IF YOU'RE REGISTERED IN
ANOTHER COUNTY BESIDES SAN
DIEGO AND WANT TO SWITCH TO SAN
DIEGO COUNTY. SO THAT DEADLINE
IS ALSO TONIGHT. IT ALSO
APPLIES TO ANYONE WHO HAS
CHANGED THEIR NAME IN THE LAST
FOUR YEARS AND NEEDS TO HAVE AN
ACCURATE I.D. WITH THEM OR A
VOTER REGISTRATION UNDER THEIR
CURRENT NAME. SO YOU'LL NEED TO
GO TO THAT WEB SITE. YOU CAN
ALSO DO SO AND CHECK YOUR
REGISTRATION PERIOD IF YOU WANT
TO REGISTER OR JUST CHECK YOUR
REGISTRATION. THE WEB SITE IS
SD VOTE DOT COM. YOU CAN ALSO
GO TO OUR WEB SITE. THAT'S CBSA
AECOM AND CLICK ON THE HELP
BUTTON. WE HAVE MORE

UPCOMING ELECTION IN LESS THAN

GET READY AND IF YOU DO HAVE
ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT VOTING THIS
YEAR, WE WANT TO HELP YOU CAN
TEXT YOUR QUESTIONS 8 5 8 5 7 1
88 88 AND WATCH NEWS 8 THROUGH
ELECTION DAY AS WE TRY TO
ANSWER AS MANY OF THEM AS WE
CAN AS WE GET TO THE CAMPAIGN
TRAIL HEAR THE PRESIDENTIAL
CANDIDATES ARE HITTING
THE BATTLEGROUND STATES HARD
HOPING TO FLIP THEM. YEAH. WITH
JUST 15 DAYS UNTIL NOVEMBER 3RD
MORE THAN 28 MILLION BALLOTS
HAVE BEEN CAST BY MAIL OR
IN-PERSON SO FAR. AND TODAY
THE PRESIDENT IS MAKING A WEST
COAST VISIT. HE'S HEADED TO
ARIZONA. HE'S EXPECTED TO GIVE
TWO SPEECHES ONE IN PRESCOTT,
ANOTHER IN TUCSON ON SUNDAY. HE
MADE A RARE STOP HERE IN
CALIFORNIA VISITING NEWPORT
BEACH FOR A PRIVATE FUNDRAISER.
AFTERWARD HE FLEW TO RENO FOR A
RALLY. MEANWHILE, THE BIDEN
CAMPAIGN IS FOCUSING ON
FLORIDA. HIS RUNNING MATES ON
IT ARE KAMALA HARRIS. SHE'LL BE
HEADING TO ORLANDO IN
JACKSONVILLE TO CAMPAIGN. BIDEN
APPEARED SUNDAY AT A DRIVE AND
RALLY IN NORTH CAROLINA. BOTH
CANDIDATES PLAYED WITH CROWDS
OVER THE HANDLING OF THE CORONA
VIRUS. HE'LL LISTEN TO
THE SCIENTISTS IF I LISTEN
TOTALLY TO THE SCIENTISTS, WE
WOULD RIGHT NOW HAVE A COUNTRY
THAT WOULD BE IN A MASSIVE
DEPRESSION. THIS GUY'S GONE
AROUND THE BEND IF HE THINKS WE
TURN THE CORNER. TURNING
THE CORNER. THINGS ARE GETTING
WORSE THAT TWO CANDIDATES FACE
OFF IN THEIR FINAL PRESIDENTIAL
DEBATE. THAT'S COMING UP THIS
THURSDAY. AND NEW THIS MORNING
WE HAVE PASSED 40 MILLION
CORONA VIRUS CASES. THAT'S
ACCORDING TO JOHNS HOPKINS
UNIVERSITY. THE ACTUAL FIGURE
IS LIKELY TO BE FAR HIGHER AS
MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD NO
SYMPTOMS. AND TOMORROW WE FIND
OUT WHETHER OUR COUNTY IS ON
COURSE FOR THE MOST RESTRICTIVE
TIER. OFFICIALS ARE REPORTING
THREE HUNDRED SEVENTY THREE NEW
CORONA VIRUS CASES OUT OF MORE
THAN 12000 TESTS. THAT'S
POSITIVE RATE OF ABOUT 3
PERCENT. NO ADDITIONAL DEATHS
WERE REPORTED. ONE NEW
COMMUNITY OUTBREAK WAS REPORTED
AT A BUSINESS FOR A TOTAL OF 32
IN THE LAST WEEK. NOW ALL THIS
MEANS THAT OUR COUNTY IS STILL
IN THE RED TIER WITH THE CASE
RATE OF SIX POINT EIGHT. BUT
THAT ALL COULD CHANGE. NEW
CHRIS CUOMO HAS MORE ON
THE THREAT OF MOVING INTO MORE
OF RESTRICTIVE TIER AND HOW ALL
THAT WORKS. GOOD MORNING,
CHRIS. GOOD MORNING, STELLA.
AND LOOK, THIS CAN ALL BE VERY
CONFUSING SO WE'RE TRYING TO
BREAK THIS DOWN AND MAKE IT AS
SIMPLE FOR THOSE OF YOU AT HOME
AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE IT COULD
HAVE A WIDE RANGE OF IMPACTS
NOT ONLY ON US BUT ALSO SMALL
BUSINESSES BUT WE CAN ALL DO
OUR PART HERE. SO AS YOU
MENTIONED RIGHT NOW OUR
ADJUSTED CASE RATE IS AT SIX
POINT EIGHT PERCENT. SO WHEN
YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE TIERS
THAT PUTS US IN THAT RED TIER
WHICH IS WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW
AS YOU TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR
SCREEN. BUT THE COUNTY
OFFICIALS ARE WORRIED THAT WITH
THE CASE RATE PER 100000 GOING
UP WE COULD POTENTIALLY BE
QUALIFIED FOR THAT PURPLE TIER.
SO THIS IS THE WAY THAT IT
WOULD WORK. OUR RAW CASE RATE
RIGHT NOW IS ABOVE 7 PERCENT
BUT THAT ADJUSTED CASE RATE
THAT'S SIX POINT PERCENT THAT'S
GETTING CREDIT FOR THE AMOUNT
OF TESTS THAT WE HAVE DONE. BUT
EVEN STILL AGAIN THE COUNTY IS
WORRIED THAT THAT NUMBER WILL
CREEP PAST 7 PERCENT
POTENTIALLY BY TUESDAY. NOW
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN THEN IF THAT
ADJUSTED CASE RATE IS ABOVE 7
PERCENT BY TUESDAY A SEVEN DAY
COUNTDOWN STARTS AFTER THOSE
SEVEN DAYS. IF WE ARE STILL
ABOVE 7 PERCENT WITH THAT
ADJUSTED CASE RATE THEN WE
WOULD MOVE TO THE PURPLE TIER.
IN THAT PURPLE TIER MEANS THAT
INDOOR OPERATIONS FOR GYMS,
RESTAURANTS AND OTHER
BUSINESSES WILL HAVE TO CLOSE.
IT ALSO HAS A NUMBER OF IMPACTS
IN OTHER SECTORS AS WELL.
SUPERVISOR NATHAN FLETCHER.
HE'S BEEN SOUNDING THE ALARM
HERE TRYING TO WARN SAN DIEGO
IS THAT THEY NEED TO DO THEIR
PART IN ORDER TO TRY TO KEEP
THAT ADJUSTED CASE RATE DOWN.
THOSE FOLKS WHO ARE MARKING
THE EFFORTS THAT MIGHT MAKE YOU
FEEL GOOD. BUT IT CERTAINLY
ISN'T GONNA FEEL GOOD FOR OUR
SMALL BUSINESSES WHEN THEY'RE
IMPACTED BY YOUR ACTIONS. AND
SO AGAIN TOMORROW WE FIND OUT
WHAT OUR ADJUSTED CASE RATE
WILL BE AGAIN THAT NUMBER ABOVE
7 PERCENT. THAT COUNTDOWN WILL
START. ERIK AND STELLA. CHRIS,
THANKS FOR BREAKING THAT DOWN.
APPRECIATE IT. HELP IS
HOPEFULLY ON THE WAY HERE FOR
THOSE FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING
AMID THE PANDEMIC. TODAY
THE SENATE IS RETURNING FROM
RECESS WHICH MEANS NEGOTIATIONS
RESUME BETWEEN THE WHITE HOUSE
AND DEMOCRATS OVER A NEW CORONA
VIRUS RELIEF PACKAGE YESTERDAY
.HOUSE SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI
SAID A 48 HOUR DEADLINE TO WORK
OUT THEIR DIFFERENCES OR WAIT
UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION. BOTH
SIDES ARE WILLING TO SPEND
AROUND TWO TRILLION DOLLARS.
BUT THERE DISPUTES OVER HOW TO
USE THAT MONEY. ON WEDNESDAY,
SENATE REPUBLICANS ARE EXPECTED
TO VOTE ON A FIVE HUNDRED
BILLION DOLLAR BILL THAT LACKS
DEMOCRATIC SUPPORT. LET'S CHECK
IN WITH THEM NOW HERE ON A
MONDAY WITH SUCH LOVELY
WEEKEND. LET'S HOPE THOSE TEMPS
ARE STICKING AROUND THE REST OF
THE WEEK HERE. YEAH, I REALLY
HOPE EVERYONE HAD A CHANCE TO
GET OUTSIDE A LITTLE BIT. WE
COUNTED FIVE TIMES. THAT'S HOW
MANY TIMES WE WENT TO THE BEACH
BETWEEN SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. I
COULDN'T RESIST. IT WAS SO
PRETTY AND YOU KNOW, FALL IN
SAN DIEGO MEANS LESS CROWDS
WHICH IS REALLY NICE.
TEMPERATURE WISE WE'RE GOING
CONTINUE TO SEE THESE NUMBERS
MOVING ON DOWN SO IT WON'T BE
AS HOT THIS WEEK. CERTAINLY
NOWHERE NEAR AS HOT AS THAT
HEATWAVE WE EXPERIENCED
YESTERDAY. HERE'S A VIEW OF
THE CATAMARAN. AND YES, WE DO
HAVE OVERCAST SKIES COMING IN
FROM THE COASTLINE. SO THAT
MARINE LAYER IS OUT NOT
NECESSARILY ALL THE WAY THROUGH
OUR INLAND COMMUNITIES. WE'RE
NOT SEEING IT. EAST OF OUR
MOUNTAINS. BUT I WAS NOTICING
THE CLOUD COVERAGE ALL JUST
SHOWING THAT THINGS HAVE
SHIFTED OUR WIND DIRECTIONS
CHANGING. WE'RE NOT NOTICING
THAT OFFSHORE FLOW. HERE'S
THE VIEW FROM MT. SOLEDAD ALL
THE WAY SOUTH AND YOU COULD SEE
THOSE TWINKLING LIGHTS. SO THAT
DOES MEAN VISIBILITY NOT
IMPACTED AS MUCH OUT THERE.
WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT PATCHY FOG
REALLY FOR MOST OF THE COUNTY
ALTHOUGH IN FALLBROOK SEEMS TO
BE A TROUBLE SPOT THERE WITH
SOME OF THE CLOUDS HANGING LOW
AT GROUND LEVEL VISIBILITY
THERE DOWN TO ONE POINT THREE
MILES. THIS IS A VIEW OF REALLY
JUST CHANGE IN OUR WEATHER.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY NUMBERS ARE
WAY UP THERE IN THE 90S FOR A
LOT OF YOU THIS MORNING. SO IT
MAY FEEL A LITTLE MUGGY OUT
THERE. YOU MAY HAVE TO
STRAIGHTEN HERE A FEW MORE
TIMES TODAY JUST TO TRY TO
HANDLE THAT. BUT WE ARE SEEING
ALL OF THIS A SIGN THAT THAT
COASTAL COOLER AIR IS GOING TO
BE PUSHED ON IN AND THAT'S ALSO
WHY OUR MOISTURE IS MOVING ON
UP. LET'S SEND IT OVER TO JENNY
NOW. YOU KNOW, IT'S BEEN
CONSISTENTLY QUIET THIS MORNING
I WOULD SAY. BUT THEN AGAIN
I'VE ONLY BEEN HERE FOR ABOUT
45 MINUTES OR SO. SO WE'LL SEE
IF THAT CHANGES TO HACER ROAD
SINGLE LANE BLOCK RIGHT NEAR
SLOANE CANYON ROAD. IT LOOKS
LIKE THERE'S SOME HIGH STANDING
WATER OR SOME FLOODING IN
THE AREA. NOT SURE FROM WHAT.
BUT BECAUSE OF THAT JUST A
SINGLE LAMENESS BLOCK. SO IT'S
NOT A FORECLOSURE OR ANYTHING
LIKE THAT CRASH WISE. I DO NOT
SEE ANYTHING MAJOR RIGHT NOW.
ANYTHING I HAD WAS ON THE 15 UP
NORTH AND IT'S GONE. SO HERE ON
THE ATO TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND
NEAR THE 5. IT LOOKS LIKE THAT
FAST LANE THIS BLOCK. THERE IS
A LITTLE BIT OF DEBRIS IN
THE ROAD. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT
IS. BUT IT IS BLOCKING A SINGLE
LANE. TROUBLE TIME WISE
EVERYTHING TO THE SOUTH LOOKS
OK. LOOKS LIKE THE SILVER
STRAND HAS A LITTLE BIT OF
VOLUME. EVERYTHING UP TO
THE NORTH AT 6 12 LOOKS OK. OK
.JENNY, THANK YOU. NEXT. NEW
INFORMATION IN THE SEARCH FOR
TWO PEOPLE WHO SHOT A MAN
OUTSIDE OF A SMOKE SHOP IN SAN
DIEGO IS NOW AMONG THOSE IN
CALIFORNIA ELIGIBLE FOR
FINANCIAL HELP FOLLOWING THIS
SEASON'S WILDFIRES. PLUS THIS
FANS GO WILD
