we retained from yesterday's warm afternoon. 8 degrees wormer in oakland with 7 degrees wormer in los gatos and by the delta 11 degrees warmer than yesterday morning. clear and cool this morning. we are looking for a sunny and mild afternoon today with dry conditions for the trick-or-treaters. but we are being looking at an unseasonably cold system heading our way by about thursday. you notice still high and dry across the eastern pacific, well into las vegas. we had one system skirt to the north of us yesterday. we will look for another system to also do the same and that will start to bring up some of the fog tonight. so our wind shifts late in the afternoon. we will see a little fog. and then we will be looking for more dry weather for the early part of the week. but it's by the end of the week where changes look like they are more likely and, in fact we are going to go from unseasonably warm to unseasonably cool. here's a look at your highs

>> welcome back. the protesters were marching along broadway last night and came face-to-face with oakland police in riot gear. they were protesting last tuesday's use of tier gas and other law enforcement tactics following a law enforcement sweep of their encampment. this time it did not escalate into violence but a splinter group broke away from the main march and began spray painting anti-police so against on building walls. they also apparently broke parking meters and shattered the front window of a police recruiting station. back at the plaza there was a peaceful discussion about violence in oakland. >> there are all kinds of people talking about the experiences they have had for years living in this city and dealing with the brutality that comes from the police. >> some of it i agree with, some that i don't. but i think it's great that there is actual discussion going on. >> on wednesday oakland teachers will take their issues to the streets when they join occupy
5:31 am
oakland's call for a general strike. the teachers say they are part of the 99% working class and are suffering from recent layoffs and deep budget cuts in education. in san francisco demonstrators have worked out an agreement with city leaders allowing them to remain camped in justin herman plaza. to resolve the city's concerns about health conditions and sanitation, they allowed city crews to come in and power wash the concrete. they even took down their tents to give crews access. there are many similarities about what is happening now at justin herman plaza and past occupation necessary san francisco. here's abc7s vic lee with the details. >> no open flame no propane tanks, the car batteries are not being used propererly. >> this is the fire chief and this is a protester. >> we are trying to be in compliance with it. public health and safety are the
5:32 am
same concerns that have been raised by officials through the decades, every time demonstrators occupy city property. >> i'm sleeping in my tent when the cops come with bad intent ♪ >> they were the same concerns at a huge sent city that sprouted at the civic center in the late 1980s. hundreds of homeless people occupied the plaza for months. art was mayor at the time. >> there were some unsafe periods. there may have been some unsanitary things. it wasn't clean. >> there was mounting criticism by businessings in the city's tourist officials. >> people wanted them out of sight and out of mind. >> the mayor was burned in effigy when he ordered them to teardown the cam in 1989. by then he had 500 new housing units for the homeless. >> i order them evicted and we had social workers working with the police to accomplish that.
5:33 am
>> many old-timers say there are more parallels between occupy sf and the age vigil and encampment in 1985 that lasted ten years. protesters were angry at the inaction of the federal government towards the growing a.i.d.s. epidemic. they took over the u. n. plaza just across the street from the civic center. the supervisor david compose. >> you had tarps and tents, people capping out. >> it became the longest running civil disobedience. two weeks police cam into justin her than plaza and tore down occupy sfs tarps. marshals tried unsuccessfully to do the same at the un plaza. politicians appeared to support their support. the same happened at the a.i.d.s. vigil. >> it became a very strong movement that was reinforced by members of the board of supervisors, mayors like me. >> the encampment ended in 1995 when fierce storms blew away the
5:34 am
tents. vic lee, abc7 news. >> in just a few days san francisco voters will have an opportunity to weigh in on an issue that cities all over the country are grappling with the financial crisis involving city employee pensions. there are dualing reform measures on san francisco's ballot. >> about 26,000 people work in san francisco's city government. when they retire they are entitled to pension. this year the city is expected to spend about $422 million on employee pension costs. by 2014 that is expected to skyrocket to $800 million. that's money not spent on schools, pothole repairs or social programs. analysts say it's driving the city toward disaster. >> your alternative is to declare bankruptcy. >> it's a crucial area that has to be reformed. >> san francisco's 2,009-2010 civil grand jury warned what it called the pension tsunami. there are more than 23,000
5:35 am
retirees a according to their report, just over 3200 of them are receiving $75,000 or more in pensions each year. retirement systems officials say the vast majority of the rest average $34,000 a year. >> when the economy was booming and the pension system flourished on their investments and stocks and real estate the payouts could be supported. but not now. public defender, jeff, was on last year's ballot to require greater sacrifice from employees. but a push back from labor defeated the measure. this year as mayoral candidate he's back with what he calls son of prop b, proposition d. some considering 7.5% of their paychecks toward retirement. the prop changes that formula based on how much an individual worker is making.
5:36 am
>> it has graduated sharing of contribution rate. what that means is higher paid workers pay more and lower paid are exempt and they pay less. >> prop d would raise the retirement age for some employees and cap benefits. the city controller said the measure will save the is city $1.7 billion over ten years. critics say prop d faces potential legal challenges because it takes away vested pension right without giving new benefits in exchange. the competing measure, prop c, is backed by the mayor, and unanimously passed by the board of supervisors and supported by the city's union. and almost all of the mayoral candidates. prop c keeps 7.5% as the baseline pension contribution, but allows a decrease in good economic times. and an increase from workers when the economy falters. prop k also ups the retirement age for new employees, and requires everyone to contribute to their health plan. the controller estimates c will
5:37 am
save the city $1.3 billion over ten years. mayor lee calls c the consensus measure. >> proposition c is uniting everybody because everybody is enjoying this and everybody is paying their fair share. we have a unity that is born to our city. >> barbara o'connor is a mare dust professor specializing in police cal communications who retired from cal state sacramento. she thinks voters will support prop c. >> so you have to have a very simple message and in this case fairness fairness, and we all agree on this are two salient messages with voters and i think we will win out. >> but rob with the california center for public policy said d is the better alternative. >> san francisco is headed over the cliff financially. you can take a short term approach of proposition c and it will put the bandaid on there but it's not bogey to stop the bleeding. >> the measures require a majority vote to pass. if both do the one with the
5:38 am
most votes become law. lisa argen is here now talking about our accuweather forecast. looking pretty good. >> yeah, but don't get too used to it. the numbers are definitely above average. we've had sunny, mild beautiful, even kind of warm conditions. and that will last for another day. before it begins to feel more like the season. i'll explain coming up. >> thank you lisa. also ahead, how far should the u.s. government go in supporting clean tech. the possible knew trade war

5:41 am
>> i hit a pothole in such a fashion that it blew the tire and dented the wheel and caused about 1200 bucks in damage. >> money is an issue on both sides of the pothole problem. the director of transportation is warning city leaders that the numbers just don't add up. >> we need to invest about $100 million a year to keep san jose's roads in good condition. unfortunately we only have about $15 million a year. >> this is a city with nearly 2400 miles of paved streets, and without regular maintenance conditions are just getting worse. the transportation director tells us 900 miles of city streets are considered in good condition. but look at the rest of the list. close to 1,000 miles are rated in fair condition. another 330 miles are classified as poor, and more than 100 miles fall into very poor category. the mayor blames dire budget realities. >> i'm not proud of the fact our roads are in terrible condition but i'm also not proud of the fact we had to lay off cops.
5:42 am
>> one idea is to ask voters to approve a partial tax earmark for road repair but that takes a two-thirds majority to pass. >> if it's a small amount, that would be okay. >> maybe. >> if funding remains as is by 2020 more than half of the streets here will be in poor condition and that's a bumpy ride no matter where you turn. in san jose, corina rusk, abc7 news. >> well, tomorrow is halloween. looks like it's going to be a pretty good night? >> yeah it does look pretty good. a slow drop in temperatures each and every day. but the coldest day of the season, you've heard that before right? maybe by the end of the work week. >> really? >> yeah. we are looking at a chilly air mass. but until then we have a mild one to enjoy today. >> okay. >> as we head outside the sutro camera, clear conditions again. win are up at higher elevations and it's not as cold as yesterday morning but we still have a couple more degrees to
5:43 am
drop before the temperatures will recover with the sun later on today. we are in the 50s in san francisco. 58 in oakland with mid-40s here. yesterday we were in the upper 30s. so we should drop down to around 40 for the low in santa rosa. 53 fremont and 55 mountain view. 47 half moon bay. compared to yesterday we are much warmer that morning. anywhere from two to eleven degrees warmer. with yesterday's heat, we had a lot of upper 70s and a couple of 80s. rehave retained some of that. with the higher elevations winds not dropping off the temperatures as quickly as we could be. but we will still be cool in our protective valleys to start out and sunny and mild today and, of course the dry conditions will continue through tomorrow. halloween for the trick-or-treaters, shouldn't be any problems out there. in fact, with the sun setting at 6:12 looks to be a nice evening. here's a look at the pacific satellite picture.
5:44 am
so far high and dry. the eastern pacific looks like we are holding strong with the ridge of high pressure and we are. but we will begin to see a little more fog tonight. that will begin some subtle changes for our forecast overnight into monday. so we start out the week with high pressure still in control and dry for the next several days, right through the middle of the week. then we will have a system slide to our east that will kick up the winds. that system moves out and then another much stronger, much colder system for the end of the work week. that could bring a little area of precip, but more importantly the much kohler err. 65 will be the high today in the sierra nevada with 80 in fresno. not much change from yesterday to today. you will notice that change later on in the day if you are on the san mateo coast along the shoreline because you will notice the wind shift more out of west-northwest today. afternoon highs very pleasant. sunyvale 76, san jose 76, 76 in los gatos with highs along the
