6:46 pm

>> everything is fine today for 98 year old. i can't believe the turnout and generosity of all the people. god bless everyone. it was overwhelming. >> i enjoyed every moment of it, but probably others deserve it more. >> well, nearly 160,000 allied troops, 73,000 from the u.s, landed in normandy on june 6th, 1944. more than 4000 were killed during the battle. >> ktvu allie rasmus shows us how world leaders, including president biden, showed their gratitude to the veterans. >> an entire day of music ceremonies. >> chevalier de la légion d'honneur. >> speeches and applause. the international d-day commemoration on omaha beach in france included moments both somber and celebratory. the 150 american world war two veterans still alive today who fought and

6:47 pm

survived d-day, took center stage 80 years ago, on june 6th, 1944. they were among the 150,000 allied troops who stormed the occupied french coastline by air, land and sea. historians say d-day helped lay the groundwork for allied forces to eventually defeat germany. the war ended 11 months afterwards. >> you saved the world and we must only defend it. >> we prove something else here as well. the unbreakable unity of the allies. >> president biden sought to draw parallels between past conflicts and present day international politics, speaking about the defense of democracy in the context of current conflicts in europe, ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky attended the ceremony in france this morning, even though the soviet union was part of the allied forces during world war two, the russian delegation was uninvited from the day's events because of the ongoing war in ukraine, 25 heads of state and more than 4500 spectators attended. actor tom hanks, who

6:48 pm

starred in the 1998 world war two film saving private ryan, was a surprise guest. u.s. service members paid their respects to the veterans by reenacting their brave moments, like the u.s. airborne divisions parachuting onto the beaches and a u.s. navy seal reenactment of the landing of the second naval beach battalion, but felt more spiritual in the sense that, that these guys from 80 years ago are here with us, to sort of bless us, to say like, thank you for, like telling us our story. >> and, that's really important for what we did today, bringing history alive and making sure the bravery and sacrifices of the past are not forgotten. >> allie rasmus, ktvu, fox two news. >> okay, it was a beautiful day today. temperatures were cooler. you noticed that for sure. especially in the bay area. it's still pretty warm in the central valley. these were the highs from today. and again you'll see the numbers are down from. they were low 100 yesterday. today farewells fairfield's 98 as

6:49 pm

opposed to the 103 yesterday which you go 98 is hot. yeah it's hot but i'm sure if you were in fairfield you're like, no, it felt cooler today in three degrees. or was that to 5 or 6 degrees cooler? 68 in oakland. now it's much cooler around the bay. we had cooling conditions at the coast where the fog is now back. and with the fog being kind of a player for the next few days, it's going to be it's going to be around and you can see what it does. it chews out this area of heat. so right there you see that hole. that's the fog and the marina and not just fog. it's the cool air and you can see what it's done. it chews it up and drops temperatures in this case almost 20 degrees from where we were last night. at this time, 13 degrees cooler in oakland, minus two and half moon bay, which makes sense. 14 degrees cooler in mountain view. and so flags showing on the golden gate bridge. it is blowing onshore and so berkeley has cooled off. albany, richmond . it's a nice day. much nicer heat advisory still in effect because the inland areas are hot, but the heat advisory will get dropped around midnight tonight, 11:00 tonight, maybe

6:50 pm

sooner. and then the central valley is going to drop their excessive heat warning as well, although there are still some very high temperatures down there. there's the fog for tomorrow morning and then it burns back to the coast and then you see the heat. but it's all on the east back end of the of the sacramento valley. so this is kind of typical summer right here, isn't it. you got the 50s at the coast to 90s inland. so that footprint is very, very normal for not it's not quite summer yet but very typical for this time of year. here are the temperature forecast for tomorrow. and you'll see that it's down a couple more degrees as more air filters inland. and then these temperatures will kind of hover really right through the bay area weekend for the most part. so it's definitely going to be a pleasant weekend, but not as hot. and then starts to warm up a little bit next week. so the heat advisory stays in effect. but it gets dropped pretty soon julie. >> all right bill thank you. >> 40 niners expanding their business partnerships, fan engagement and community outreach in mexico.

6:51 pm

>> that's right. more than 100 students in los cabos got to experience flag football drills and steam education lessons. i want to show you some footage provided by the 49ers foundation of the event. last week, the kids met with 49ers legend patrick willis and learned about how science, technology, engineering and math relates to the game. the 49ers edu program partnered with the los cabos tourism board for the clinic, with the hopes of advancing their business goals and niners football. >> i think the 40 niners do an amazing job of trying to, represent the latino community and their voice, and i think this is just another representation of their commitment to the latino community, specifically in mexico, and how we're trying to grow the sport, grow the fans, and really just create community across the border. >> all of the students who took part are part of their own leagues in los cabos. this program is a follow up to the one held in 2022, when the niners played in mexico city as

have one of the most talented rosters in the nfl. one of those players is, without question, defensive captain fred warner, who is now entering his seventh season and coming off arguably his best season, in which he was named a unanimous first team all pro selection. warner has led the niners in tackles each of his first six seasons. he could do it all. he could stuff the run, cover, wide receiver, sack the quarterback. and at age 27, he's just entering his prime. >> aging like fine wine, really. you know, you know, i take pride in taking care of my body, right? i always i think a big part of it is just always being curious, you know, just always looking for what new ways to recover and get better. yeah. i think it's, it's just the best. i felt former alameda high baseball star brian woo returned

6:56 pm

to the bay area with the mariners and completely shut down his hometown team today, 6500 at the coliseum, including this young fella still figuring out his moves. >> meantime, woo! he had it all figured out. the 24 year old, right hander was brilliant painting the corners all afternoon. six strikeouts for woo, who allowed just two hits and no runs in six innings of work. seattle's offense wasn't great either. just like the a's, but it was good enough. mitch garver with a little icing on the cake. home run in the ninth. he had two of the mariners three rbis as seattle takes the rubber match three nothing. the a's have now lost six of their last eight they welcome in the toronto blue jays tomorrow the oakland ballers. they will make pioneer league history tonight when kelsey whitmore takes the mound against the yolo high wheelers. she will become the first female to start a game in

6:57 pm

league history thus far this season. whitmore's pitch four and two thirds innings, but all as a reliever. so this will be different. and it comes in just the third home game ever for the ballers, who play at raymond park in west oakland. i caught up with kelsey and asked her about her approach. when she takes the mound. >> more of a pitcher that's crafty. so i got to get, you know, working to really get batters off balance. and, and really just try to miss barrels and get as many ground balls, fly outs as i can, goal is to try to have as much movement as i can with each pitch in my arsenal, and just trying to be smart. >> and check this out. former nfl great jj watt, you know, he makes for an imposing soccer player. we'll watch him watch this. he runs over the goalkeeper as he goes in for the header. >> oh gosh everyone was fine particularly the keeper. run into him. how big is jj watt six
