I AM RYAN YAMAMOTO IN FOR JULIETTE TONIGHT. WE BEGIN WITH BAD NEWS FOR OAKLAND A's FANS. THE TEAM CLEARING ANOTHER MAJOR HURDLE IN THEIR ATTEMPT TO MOVE TO LAS VEGAS. WITHIN THE PAST FEW HOURS, THE GOVERNOR OF NEVADA SIGNED OFF ON A PLAN TO POOR TAXPAYER MONEY INTO A BRAND-NEW STADIUM. ANNE MAKOVEC JOINS US IN THE NEWSROOM WITH THE VERY LATEST. >> THE OWNER IS BURNING SOME MAJOR BRIDGES IN OAKLAND, BLAMING THE CITY FOR THE SITUATION. HE ALSO LAID OUT WHAT IS NEXT IN THE APPROVAL PROCESS. ROB MANFRED SAYS THE A's WILL FILE A RELOCATION APPLICATION AND IT WILL EVENTUALLY GO TO ALL MLB OWNERS FOR A FINAL VOTE. HE SAID HE FEELS SORRY FOR FANS IN OAKLAND. >> I DON'T LIKE THIS OUTCOME. I UNDERSTAND WHY THEY FEEL THE WAY THEY DO. I THINK THE REAL QUESTION IS, WHAT IS IT THAT OAKLAND WAS PREPARED TO DO? THERE IS NO OAKLAND OFFER. THEY NEVER GOT TO THE POINT WHERE THEY HAD A PLAN TO BUILD A STADIUM AT ANY SITE. >> Reporter: NOW OF COURSE THERE WAS A PLAN IN THE WORKS TO BUILD A WATERFRONT BALLPARK AT THE HOWARD TERMINAL, BUT THE A's WANTED MORE PUBLIC MONEY CONTRIBUTED TO THE PROJECT WHEN THE CITY WAS ABLE TO GIVE AND THERE WAS STILL LOGISTICAL RED TAPE TO BE CUT. THEY SAID THERE WAS A VERY CONCRETE PROPOSAL AND OAKLAND HAD GONE ABOVE AND BEYOND TO SECURE FUNDING FOR INFRASTRUCTURE AND WORKING WITH OTHER AGENCIES TO FINALIZE APPROVAL. SHE SAID THE A's HAD TOO MANY DEMANDS FOR THE SPACE WHICH THEY SEEM TO HAVE DOWNSIZED WHEN THEY MADE PLANS FOR VEGAS. SHE SAYS THEY LOOK FORWARD TO BRINGING CIVIC PRIDE AND JOBS. I AM NOT EVEN A SPORTS FAN BUT THAT STATEMENT DOES BITE.

WE CAN MEASURE THE FIRE THREAT ACROSS THE STATE WITH SOMETHING CALLED RELATIVE BURN ABILITY. BASICALLY YOU WANT TO BE ON THE GREEN SIDE OF THE SPECTRUM. WE SEE A LITTLE BIT OF YELLOW SHOWING UP IN THE FOOTHILLS NEAR MERCED AND FRESNO. THERE IS NO MAROON OR RED TO INDICATE VERY HIGH PROBABILITIES AND RAPID SPREADS. WHAT THE FIRE EXPERT MENTIONED IS THAT WE ARE NOT CERTAIN WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN JULY AND AUGUST .1 HEATWAVE IS ALL IT WOULD TAKE TO DRY OUT THE FIRE FUELS AND HIGHER TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE FORECAST FOR JULY, AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT EACH AND EVERY DAY WILL BRING ABOVE-AVERAGE TEMPERATURES FOR THOSE THREE MONTHS AND IT DOES NOT SAY HOW FAR ABOVE AVERAGE WE WILL BE, JUST THAT ONCE YOU AVERAGE IT OUT, IT IS LIKELY GOING TO COME OUT TO BE ABOVE WHAT IS NORMAL FOR SUMMER AND INTO EARLY FALL, SOMETHING WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR AS WE HEAD INTO AN UP-AND-DOWN TEMPERATURE PATTERN OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. WE WILL TALK ABOUT THAT IN A FEW MINUTES. >>> DESPITE A FAVORABLE START TO THE YEAR, PROPERTY OWNERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT WHAT THE FIRE SEASON COULD BRING.

BUT HE DOESN'T THINK THIS IS PERMANENT. >> I DO SEE THEM RETURNING. ULTIMATELY CALIFORNIA IS A HUGE INSURANCE MARKET THAT INSURANCE COMPANIES WANT TO OFFER THEIR PRODUCTS IN, BUT ALL OF THEM ARE SEEKING SOME SIGNIFICANT INCREASES IN RATES OR HOW THEY OFFER DEPENDING ON THE AREA. >> Reporter: IN FACT, CALIFORNIA JUST GAVE ALLSTATE THE GREEN LIGHT TO RAISE HOME INSURANCE RATES BY 4%. EVEN SO, ALLSTATE IS STANDING BY THEIR DECISION TO STOP WRITING NEW POLICIES HERE. FOR COMPANIES STILL WRITING NEW POLICIES, THEY ARE INCREASING IN SCRUTINY. >> Reporter: COMPANIES ARE ALSO ASKING IN SOME CASES FOR PICTURES OF THE HOME, PROOF OF ALUM CERTIFICATES. I THINK IT HELPS THE CONSUMER TO BE ABLE TO HIGHLIGHT THE SAFE FEATURES OF THEIR HOME. >> Reporter: HAROLD SAYS TO CHECK AND SHOP AROUND. THESE DAYS, BE PREPARED TO PAY MORE. >>> THIS YEAR THE MASSIVE CERA SNOWPACK STILL HAS A LOT OF MELTING TO DO AND WE ARE ONLY HALFWAY THROUGH JUNE.

MOST OF THIS IS NO MORE THAN A FEW INCHES >>> SAN FRANCISCO CHILD CARE WORKERS ARE SOUNDING THE ALARM FOLLOWING MAYOR LONDON BREED 'S PROPOSAL. >> SO MANY FAMILIES LIKE MINE CANNOT AFFORD TO LIVE IN THE CITY. AFFORDABLE CHILDCARE ALLOWS US TO DO THIS WITHOUT FEAR OF LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK.

THE MAYOR WANTS TO INCENTIVIZE THE OPENING OF NEW BUSINESSES DOWNTOWN. WE REACHED OUT TO HER OFFICE FOR A RESPONSE BUT WE HAVE NOT HEARD BACK YET. >>> CALIFORNIA LAWMAKERS ARE TRYING TO ENSHRINE THE RIGHT TO HOUSING IN THE CONSTITUTION AND PROPONENTS SAY THAT WOULD HOLD STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS MORE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOLVING THE HOMELESSNESS CRISIS. THE BILL WOULD RECOGNIZE THE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO, QUOTE, ACCURATE HOUSING. IT COULD ALSO INFLUENCE PLANNING DECISIONS BY >>> THE NEXT TIME YOU HEAD TO SFO MAKE SURE YOU KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THEIR NEWEST EMPLOYEE. THIS IS DUKE ELLINGTON, THE NEW THERAPY CAT. HE COMES WITH HIS OWN UNIFORM. HE IS THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE WAG BRIGADE WHICH WANDERS THE HALLS OF THE AIRPORT TO HELP NERVOUS PASSENGERS CALM DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
