AND BY THE CONRAD PREBYS FOUNDATION, DARLENE MARCOS SHILEY, AND BY THE FOLLOWING, AND BY VIEWERS LIKE YOU, THANK YOU.

>>> THE STRIKE IS OVER, BUT THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES AGAINST THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AND ITS LANDS TO WITHHOLD DIPLOMAS FROM STUDENT PROTESTERS.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US, I'M MAYA TRABULSI .

A JUDGES ORDER TEMPORARILY ENDED THE WALKOUT ON CAMPUSES.

OUR EDUCATION REPORTER HAS MORE ON WHAT THAT MEANS FOR THIS WEEK'S END OF SCHOOL SCHEDULE.>> STUDENTS AT UC SAN DIEGO ARE ON THE MOVE, IT'S FINALS WEEK, THAT MEANS LAST- MINUTE STUDYING, AND THE END OF A QUARTER THAT HAS INCLUDED MUCH MORE THAN JUST ACADEMICS.

>> I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD BE EXPRESSING THE RIGHT TO PROTEST.

>> STEPHEN IS A FRESHMAN WHO CAME HERE FROM BAKERSFIELD, WATCHING THE UNITED AUTO WORKERS UNION STRIKE UNFOLD, ACROSS THE STATE, AND RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM.

IT HAS CAUSED SOME CONCERN.>> IT HAS BEEN AFFECTING A LOT OF THE CLASSES WITH WHETHER OR NOT STUDENTS WILL GET THEIR FINALS GRADED.

>> STUDENTS GOT SOME RELIEF LATE FRIDAY, WHEN ORANGE COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE MENTAL SHERMAN ISSUED A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER TO STOP THE ACADEMIC WORKERS FROM STAYING OFF THE JOB.

HE ORDERED THEM OFF THE PICKET LINES AND BACK TO CLASSROOMS, AND RESEARCH LABS.

WHILE THE UAW WILL HONOR THE INJUNCTION AND STOP THE STRIKE FOR NOW, THAT DOES NOT MEAN PROTESTS WILL STOP HERE ON CAMPUS.

ACTUATION IS HAPPENING ON SATURDAY, AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE WITH SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT THAT.

BEFORE THEY WERE ORDERED TO STOP STRIKING, FRIDAY, ACADEMIC WORKERS PROTESTED, THE UC SAN DIEGO ADMINISTRATION DECIDED TO HOLD THE DIPLOMAS OF AT LEAST SEVEN SENIORS WHO WERE ARRESTED DURING LAST MONTHS DISMANTLING OF THE GAZA SOLIDARITY ENCAMPMENT.

THE STUDENTS FOR JUSTICE IN PALESTINE GROUP HAS ANNOUNCED ON SOCIAL MEDIA PLANS FOR A COUNTER EVENT, CALLED THE PEOPLE'S GRADUATION, TO BE HELD FRIDAY AFTERNOON AT A LOCATION OFF CAMPUS, STILL TO BE DETERMINED.

>> HONESTLY I'M KIND OF DISAPPOINTED, I FEEL LIKE UC SHOULD BE SUPPORTING THEIR STUDENTS, THEY TALK ABOUT HOW PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEECH AND ALL OF THAT, AND THEY ARE NOT FOLLOWING UP WITH THAT.

>> OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO CALL THE STRIKE ILLEGAL.

AUC ASSOCIATE VICE PRESIDENT OF SYSTEMWIDE LABOR ASSOCIATION SAID WE ARE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR A PAUSE IN THE STRIKE SO OUR STUDENTS CAN COMPLETE ACADEMIC STUDIES.

THE STRIKE WOULD HAVE CAUSED IRREVERSIBLE SETBACKS TO STUDENT ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS AND MAY HAVE STALLED CRITICAL RESEARCH PROJECTS IN THE FINAL QUARTER.

THE UAW SAYS IT WILL END MEDIATION TALKS AND FOCUS ON THE COMPLAINT FILED WITH THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS BOARD.

UNION OFFICIALS SAY THEY ARE THE ONLY AUTHORITY THAT SHOULD BE RULING ON THIS CASE.>>> TONIGHT, THE CLOUDS INCREASE, AND I WILL TELL YOU WHY YOU WILL BE THANKFUL THE MARINE LAYER IS HERE FOR US.

>>> TODAY THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO BROKE GROUND ON THE LARGEST PROJECT ON THE COAST, THEY WANT TO MAKE THE AIRFIELD MORE ATTRACTIVE TO TRAVEL AND TRADE, AND THE CITY PLANS TO EXPAND THE CUSTOMS AND BORDER OFFICE TO GENERATE MORE REVENUE.

>> IF YOU HAVE SOMEBODY WHO IS COMING BACK INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY, THEY COME HERE TO GET THEIR AIRCRAFT INSPECTED, THEY BUY FUEL FROM US, AND WE, AS A CITY, BENEFIT.

WE CHARGE A LENDING FEE, AND WE ALSO CHARGE FOR EVERY GALLON BEING SOLD.

>> THE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT WILL TAKE A TOTAL OF 20 YEARS, BUT THE CITY WILL START SEEING NEW FACILITIES AS EARLY AS 2025.

>>> THE NORTH COUNTY TRANSIT DISTRICT MADE COMMUTING TO WORK BY TRAIN A LITTLE EASIER.

ALEXANDER HAS THE DETAILS.>> COMMITTING BY TRAIN TO WORK HAS ITS CHALLENGES, MAINLY HOW TO GO FROM HERE TO HERE.

>> FOUR LIFE SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES, THEIR EMPLOYEES NEED TO BE IN PERSON.

>> TODAY, THE NORTH COUNTY TRANSIT DISTRICT UNVEILED A COASTAL CONNECTION SERVICE.

>> THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST ECONOMIC HUBS WITHIN SAN DIEGO.>> HE REPRESENTS THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO BOARD.

THE SORRENTO VALLEY TRAIN STATION IS IN HIS DISTRICT.

IT IS THE THIRD MOST USED.>> MANY USE IT AS A WAY TO TRAVEL, CONSIDERING THEY CAN SKIP THE TRAFFIC.

>> THE SAN DIEGO METROPOLITAN TRANSIT SYSTEM USED TO OFFER THE SERVICE, BUT ELIMINATED IT LAST YEAR DUE TO BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS.>> IT ALSO DISRUPTED A CRITICAL NEED FOR DAILY COMMUTERS.

NOW THEY ARE RESTORING THAT SERVICE AND EXPANDING IT.

THE SERVICE OFFERS FIVE ROUTES, CONNECTING TO SORRENTO VALLEY, TORREY PINES, UNIVERSITY CITY AND UCSD.

THE AREA IS THE LARGEST EMPLOYMENT CENTER IN SAN DIEGO, WITH NEARLY 130,000 JOBS, ALMOST 60,000 WORKERS TRAVEL HERE.

>> THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.>> WE SPOKE WITH THE BOARD CHAIR.

>> AND CTD HAS EXPANDED THE SERVICE TO INCLUDE EXTRA TRIPS TO SUPPORT CONNECTIONS TO AND FROM COASTER TRAINS, ACCOMMODATING OFF-PEAK COMMUTERS, LIKE THOSE WITH OFF- PEAK SCHEDULES.

SO THEY WANT TO CONNECT 30,000 PEOPLE WRITING THE TRAIN EACH YEAR.>>> THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO WANTS TO HELP LOCAL SERVICEMEMBERS LEAVING THE MILITARY FIND JOBS WITH THE CITY, AND THEY'VE HIRED A NAVY CHIEF TO HELP.

ANDREW DYER HAS MORE WITH THE FIRST VETERAN ENGAGEMENT COORDINATOR.>> THE CHIEF WORKS AS AN INTELLIGENCE SPECIALIST IN THE RESERVES, AND HAS DONE SO FOR 16 YEARS AND NOW, IN ADDITION TO THOSE DUTIES, HE SIGNED ON TO HELP THE CITY CONNECT WITH MORE VETERANS AND SERVICEMEMBERS.

>> WE ARE LOOKING AT ENGAGEMENT AND RETENTION, CERTAINLY WE ARE LOOKING TO ATTRACT VETERANS TO WORK FOR THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO, AND THEN ALSO SUPPORT THEM IN THE COMMUNITY IN ANY WAY WE CAN.

>> THE NEW CITY JOB ESPECIALLY FUNDED BY THE WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT, A NONPROFIT THAT ASSISTS AND ADVOCATES FOR VETERANS.

IT'S THE ORGANIZATIONS FIRST LOCAL GOVERNMENT FOCUSED INITIATIVE IN THE COUNTRY VISITED THEIR INTENTION WAS TO CREATE A POSITION WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENT, WHICH THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE, THIS IS THE RIGHT TIME FOR THIS, TO HELP SUPPORT VETERANS IN THE COMMUNITY.>> IN A WAY, HE SAYS HE'S GOT TWO JOBS.

>> VETERANS IN THE COMMUNITY PROVIDE ANOTHER RESOURCE FOR THE WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT, AND ALSO RECRUIT AND RETAIN VETERANS TO WORK FOR THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO.

SO HE'S USING HIS CONNECTIONS TO HELP SERVICEMEMBERS AND VETERANS, AND MILITARY SPOUSES OF HAVE DIFFICULTY MAINTAINING CAREERS WHEN MOVING EVERY FEW YEARS.

WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT WILL HELP WITH FUNDING FOR TWO YEARS, BUT THEN THE CITY SAYS THE POSITION IS HERE TO STAY.

>>> TODAY WE GOT A WEEK OF GIVING TO HELP PEOPLE STILL RECOVERING FROM THE JANUARY 22 FLOODS.

VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATIONS SAY FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS THEY'VE MOBILIZED 100 VOLUNTEERS, THEY'VE HELPED WITH MOLD SUPPRESSION AND MORE, NOW THERE HOPING TO HELP VICTIMS RETURN HOME.

THE MONEY RAISED WILL COVER THE COST OF FURNITURE, APPLIANCES, AND MORE, BUT THIS WEEK IS NOT JUST ABOUT DONATING MONEY.>> ONE OF THE NEAT THINGS THAT'S HAPPENING, THEY ARE COMING IN TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION TO HELP PEOPLE NOT ONLY REPAIR AND REBUILD, THEY ARE ALSO LOOKING AT HOW TO REBUILD RESILIENT, REBUILD GREEN, REBUILD ENERGY EFFICIENT.

NEW DONATIONS CAN BE MADE ON THE SAN DIEGO FOUNDATION WEBSITE, IF YOU'D LIKE TO VOLUNTEER, YOU CAN SIGN UP ON TOGETHER SAN DIEGO.ORG.

>>> THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL FOR THE FIRST TIME ENDORSES A CEASE- FIRE IN GAZA AS THE NET ESTATES CONTINUES ITS PUSH FOR A DEAL, THAT'S AT 7:00 P.M., AFTER EVENING EDITION.>>> AS THE NOVEMBER ELECTION APPROACHES, MORE POLITICIANS ARE TALKING ABOUT THE SITUATION ON THE SOUTHERN BORDER.

POLITICAL RHETORIC AROUND IMMIGRATION IS GETTING MORE EXTREME.>> BREAKING NEWS ON THE BORDER CRISIS, RIGHT NOW THERE IS AN INVASION GOING ON IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

>> THAT IS CARL DEMAIO, IN FEBRUARY, DESCRIBING THE SITUATION AT THE BORDER, AND HERE IS BILL WELLS, A MONTH LATER.>> WHAT'S HAPPENING IS NOT JUST A CRISIS.

THEY ARE NOT ALONE, POLITICIANS, PARTICULARLY REPUBLICANS ARE USING THE WORD INVASION MORE AND MORE TO DESCRIBE IMMIGRATION.

>> WE ARE NOT GOING TO LET THESE PEOPLE COME IN AND TAKE OUR CITY AWAY FROM US, AND TAKE OUR COUNTRY AWAY FROM US, IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

>> AND IT WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO RAMP UP AS WE HEAD INTO THE NEXT ELECTION.

EXPERTS SAY THAT HAS A BIG CONSEQUENCE.

>> WE'VE IDENTIFIED OVER 165 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS IN THEIR OFFICIAL CAPACITY HAVE ENGAGED IN INPATIENT OR REPLACING THEORY RHETORIC.>> THAT'S A SENIOR RESEARCH DIRECTOR AT AMERICA'S VOICE, A PRO- IMMIGRATION ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION.>> I THINK IT'S REALLY TELLING, AND VERY CONCERNING.

>> WHY HE IS SO CONCERNED IS BECAUSE IT COMES RIGHT OUT OF WHITE SUPREMACY IDEOLOGY.

THE LANGUAGE OF INVASION IS TIED TO THIS IDEA AROUND THE GREAT REPLACEMENT THEORY, WHICH HAS INSPIRED TERRORIST ATTACKS OVER THE YEARS.

>> IT'S A CONSPIRACY CLAIMING THAT POLITICAL ELITES ARE REPLACING THE VOTER POWER OF NATIVEBORN AMERICANS WITH NONWHITE IMMIGRANTS.

THE GUNMEN WHO KILLED 22 PEOPLE IN EL PASO IN 2019 SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED "HISPANIC INVASION" AS MOTIVATION.

THIS IS WHEN HIGH-PROFILE PEOPLE USE THIS INVASION RHETORIC, THEY INTRODUCE IT TO A MAINSTREAM AUDIENCE.

>> IT UNFORTUNATELY AND TRAGICALLY LOWERS THE THRESHOLD FOR PEOPLE WHO HEAR THAT TO THINK THERE IS A REAL INVASION, AND THEY HAVE HATE IN THEIR HEART AND A GUN IN THEIR HANDS, AND THEY ACT UPON IT.

>> WHAT THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO QUESTIONS.

INVASION RHETORIC IS NOT LIMITED TO THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.

LAWMAKERS ARE INCREASINGLY ADOPTING THIS LANGUAGE TO PUSH ANTI-IMMIGRANT LAWS.

THAT'S ACCORDING TO THE LEGAL DIRECTOR AT THE AMERICAN IMMIGRATION COUNSEL.

>> IT IS UNFORTUNATELY COMING UP IN LEGISLATIVE DEBATES IN OTHER PARTS OF THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING IN STATES FAR FROM THE U.S. AND MEXICO BORDER INVOKING THE SAME DANGEROUS AND VIOLENT RHETORIC TO JUSTIFY ANTI-IMMIGRANT MEASURES AT THE STATE LEVEL.>> THE GOVERNOR ARGUED THAT THE STATE WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION WHILE TRYING TO PASS A LAW THAT GAVE JUDGES DEPORTATION POWERS.

A JUDGE REJECTED THE ARGUMENT.

HE STARTED BY LOOKING AT THE NATURAL DICTIONARY DEFINITIONS, THE MEANING OF INVADE, IT MEANS ENTERING A COUNTRY WITH HOSTILE INTENT, IT HAS TO BE AN ORGANIZED MILITARY INVESTIGATION.

SO THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THEY ARE UNDER PRESSURE, BUT SAW NO EVIDENCE OF ANY TYPE OF MILITARY INVESTIGATION.

THEY WANT TO SHED A LIGHT ON THE INACCURACY OF THIS POLITICAL NARRATIVE.

SOME OF THIS IDEA OF AN INVASION BEING FACTUALLY INACCURATE IS AN INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS WAY TO DESCRIBE THE COMPLEX SITUATION AT THE BORDER AND THE IMMIGRATION SITUATION IN CITIES AND TOWNS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.

>>> MARIJUANA REMAINS ILLEGAL FEDERALLY, BUT IN MANY STATES, IT IS RECREATIONALLY OR MEDICINALLY AVAILABLE.

THE PRESUMPTIVE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEES HAVE SHARED MIXED FEELINGS ON THE ISSUE, BUT COULD IT POPULARITY CHANGE THEIR POLITICS?

>> WHERE TO UNDERSTAND ON LEGALIZING MARIJUANA?

>> HOW MANY STATES ARE ALREADY LEGALIZED?

IT IS AN ABSURD LAW.

>> ONLY ABOUT A THIRD OF U.S.

VOTERS WERE IN FAVOR IN 2003.

TWO DECADES LATER, SUPPORT WENT UP TO 70%.

NOW THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS WORKING TO KEEP UP WITH PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

IN 2022, PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN PARDONED PRIOR OFFENSES OF SIMPLE MARIJUANA POSSESSION.

MARIJUANA HAS BEEN CATEGORIZED AS A SCHEDULE ONE SUBSTANCE ALONG WITH DRUGS LIKE HEROIN, FOR DECADES, BUT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO CHANGE THAT.

>> MY ADMINISTRATION TOOK A MAJOR STEP TO RECLASSIFY MARIJUANA FROM A SCHEDULE ONE DRUG TO A SCHEDULE THREE DRUG.

>> SCHEDULE THREE WOULD MAKE MARIJUANA A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE, THE SAME CATEGORY AS DESCRIPTION DRUGS LIKE KETAMINE.

DOOR DURING FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP 2016 CAMPAIGN, HE SAID LEGALIZATION SHOULD BE LEFT UP TO THE STATES.>> FOR WHATEVER REASON, THE MARIJUANA REALLY HELPS THEM, IT REALLY HELPS THEM, BUT I THINK IN TERMS OF MARIJUANA AND LEGALIZATION, THAT SHOULD BE A STATE ISSUE.

>> BUT HIS ADMINISTRATION RESCINDED A JUSTICE DEPARTMENT TRIO OF MEMOS FROM THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION THAT PREVENTED FEDERAL PROSECUTION IN STATES WHERE IT IS LEGAL.

THIS NOVEMBER, VOTERS IN FLORIDA, WHERE TRUMP IS A RESIDENT WILL DECIDE WHETHER RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA SHOULD BE LEGALIZED IN THEIR STATES.

THERE MAY BE POLITICAL BENEFITS, AS IT POPULARITY, PARTICULARLY AMONG YOUNGER VOTERS, COULD DRIVE PEOPLE TO THE POLLS.

REPORTING AT THE WHITE HOUSE, I'M JULIA BENBROOK.

>> WORKERS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COULD SOON GO ON STRIKE.

WORKERS SEE FOOD 4 LESS AND KROGER UNDERMINED CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS AND VIOLATED THEIR RIGHT TO PRESENTATION.

RESULTS WILL BE ANNOUNCED AFTER VOTING ENDS ON FRIDAY.

SUGAR ISSUED A STATEMENT, SAYING COMPANIES ARE COMMITTED TO NEGOTIATING IN GOOD FAITH.

>>> IF YOU'VE BOUGHT GROCERIES RECENTLY, YOU'VE LIKELY EXPERIENCED STICKER SHOCK AT CHECKOUT, BUT SOME ITEMS HAVE REALLY SPIKED IN PRICE.

JENN SULLIVAN LOOKS AT WHY WE ARE PAYING MORE FOR CERTAIN PRODUCTS.

>> SKYROCKETING IN PRICE, ORANGE JUICE.

SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR, ORANGE JUICE PRICES HAVE GONE UP MORE THAN 30%, ACCORDING TO TRADING ECONOMICS, A WEBSITE THAT TRACKS THE PRICE OF CERTAIN COMMODITIES, HITTING AN ALL-TIME HIGH IN MAY.

THE REINFORCED ALLIANCES THE SPIKE IN PRICES IS LARGELY BEING CAUSED BY SEVERE WEATHER CHANGES IN BRAZIL.

BRAZIL IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST PRODUCER OF ORANGES, ACCOUNTING FOR 75% OF ALL WHEN SHOES EXPORTS.>> IT'S A VERY TRICKY MOMENT FOR ORANGE JUICE.

>> MOST OF THE ORANGE FARMS AIR IN SAO PAULO, WHICH HAS BEEN IMPACTED BY SEVERE DROUGHT, BUT THE ORANGE TREES ARE ALSO BEING DESTROYED BY DISEASE.

HE SAYS THE ONLY WAY TO FIGHT THE DISEASE IS TO BURN DOWN THE CROP, AND IT TAKES TWO TO THREE YEARS TO GROW ANOTHER ORANGE TREE.

A LENGTHY PROCESS, WHICH LIKELY MEANS PRICES ARE NOT GOING DOWN ANYTIME SOON.

TO COMPENSATE FOR THE LOW SUPPLY AND HIGH DEMAND, ORANGE JUICE MAKERS ARE USING OTHER CITRUS FRUITS TO MIX WITH ORANGES TO CREATE ORANGE JUICE.

BUT IT'S NOT JUST ORANGES IMPACTED BY DROUGHT AND CLIMATE CHANGE, DROUGHT IS HURTING COFFEE AND COCOA BEANS, IT'S IMPACTING THE PRICE OF CHOCOLATE AND COFFEE.

FOOD PRICES ACROSS THE BOARD ARE PREDICTED TO INCREASE BY 2.2% THIS YEAR.

FOR CONSUMER WATCH, I'M JENN SULLIVAN.>>> THE SUMMER STORM SEASON IS JUST RAMPING UP, AND FEMA IS RUNNING OUT OF MONEY.

THE UNITED STATES HAS ALREADY BEEN HIT WITH 11 EXTREME DISASTERS SO FAR THIS YEAR, AND COMBINED, THOSE COST OVER $25 BILLION.

THAT MEANS THEY COULD SLIP INTO THE RED BY THE END OF THE SUMMER.

THE AGENCY COULD HAVE A SHORTFALL OF $1.3 BILLION BY AUGUST.

THEY ARE WORKING WITH CONGRESS TO ADDRESS FUNDING ISSUES, AND THEY ARE TAKING STEPS TO SET ASIDE A RESERVE FOR RESPONSE AND RECOVERY OPERATIONS.>>> WE ARE SO FAMILIAR WITH JUNE GLOOM, AND THAT IS GOING TO HELP MANAGE TO KEEP A LITTLE MORE COMFORT FOR MANY OF US, ALTHOUGH NOT ALL OF US.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE MARINE LAYER, STAYING THICK THIS WEEK.

WE HAVE AN OFFSHORE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT IS GOING TO WORK ITS WAY ON SHORE LATER THIS WEEK.

BEFORE WE GET THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS, THINGS ARE GOING TO STAY FAIRLY WARM FOR US.

OUR STORY, HEADING TO TONIGHT, A LOT OF THOSE CLOUDS ARE VENTURING THEIR WAY BACK IN, 62 IS BELOW FOR SAN DIEGO, OCEANSIDE, 60 DEGREES, WORKING TOWARD BORREGO SPRINGS, LOWER 70s THERE.

THE HEAT IS ON ACROSS SO MUCH OF THE SOUTHWEST, AND YOU CAN TELL HERE JUST HOW MUCH HEAT IS, AS WE WORK OUR WAY TO THE COAST.

PLACES LIKE LAS VEGAS COULD BE CHALLENGING RECORD HIGHS OUT THERE, IT IS REALLY GOING TO BE HOT THROUGH SOME OF THOSE INTERIOR SOUTHWESTERN LOCATIONS.

AS YOU GET CLOSER, THE CLOUDS STAY THICK FOR 48 HOURS, HARD TO GET RID OF THEM INTO THE AFTERNOON, WITH AND WE SHOULD BE RID OF MOST OF THEM, SAN DIEGO HEADED BACK INTO THE UPPER 60s FOR THE HIGH.

BORREGO SPRINGS, 106 DEGREES FOR THE HIGH, THE MOUNTAINS, THE DESERTS, REALLY FEELING THAT HEAT.

COASTAL COMMUNITIES, NO BIG DEAL.

WE WILL HAVE MORE CLOUDS AS WE VENTURE INTO FRIDAY, WITH MORE OF THAT LOW-PRESSURE SYSTEM HEADING ON SHORE.

INLAND COMMUNITIES ARE DOING PRETTY GOOD HERE.

NUMBERS ARE VARYING SLIGHTLY, BUT PRETTY MUCH RIGHT IN THE BALLPARK FOR THE UPCOMING DAYS.

NOT LOCATIONS, THIS IS WHERE WE START TO SEE A FEW FLUCTUATIONS, A PREFIX UPPER 60s, THEN LOWER 70s, A LITTLE BIT COOLER FOR THURSDAY, WITH MAYBE A FEW EXTRA CLOUDS OUT THERE.

AS WE TRANSITION INTO DESERT AMENITIES, WE ARE HOLDING ONTO THE 105-110 RANGE, FOR THE EXCEPTION OF THURSDAY, WHERE WE GET A LITTLE BIT COOLER.

>>> WHILE MOST EXPERTS AGREE SHARK ATTACKS ARE RARE, MANY SAY RISING OCEAN TEMPERATURES ARE LEADING SHARKS TO HUNT MORE.

IN RECENT DAYS, TWO SEPARATE SHARK ATTACKS INJURED MULTIPLE PEOPLE IN FLORIDA.

AND JUST LAST WEEK, A SHARK ATTACKED A MAN IN DELMAR.

LAURA HAS MORE ON WHAT ONE MARINE BIOLOGIST SAYS YOU SHOULD NOT DO WHEN YOU ENTER THE OCEAN.

>> TERRIFYING MOMENTS IN THE WATERS OFF THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE, TWO SEPARATE SHARK ATTACKS IN WALTON COUNTY.

THE FIRST VICTIM, A 45-YEAR-OLD WOMAN WITH HER HUSBAND.

SHE'S RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT TRAUMA TO THE PELVIC AREA.

>> 90 MINUTES LATER AND 4 MILES AWAY, TWO TEENAGERS WERE ATTACKED, ALSO NEAR A SANDBAR.

>> ONE RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT INJURIES.

THE SECOND TEAM HAD MINOR INJURIES TO HER RIGHT FOOT, SAID THE FIRE CHIEF.>> THIS IS WHEN SHARKS WILL MOVE INTO FEED, LOOKING FOR PREY ALONG THE BEACHES.

>> A SHARK BIT HER HAND.

>> MY BODY'S REACTION PROBABLY SAVED ME.

SNOW THAT REACTION WAS TO PUNCH THE SHARK IN THE FACE.

IT LET HER GO.

SURGEONS REPAIRED SEVERAL TORN TENDONS IN HER HAND, AND HER RECOVERY CONTINUES.

MOST SHARK EXPERTS POINT OUT TIME OF DAY MATTERS.>> SHARKS ARE CORPUSCULAR HUNTERS.

DON'T GO IN THE WATER WITH JEWELRY, OR WITH PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES.

STAY AWAY FROM MURKY AREAS.

>> BOTTOM LINE, ATTACKS ARE RARE, BUT ALWAYS REMAIN CAUTIOUS.>>> SUMMER MOVIE SEASON IS HERE, BUT WITH DECLINING BOX OFFICE NUMBERS, STUDIOS ARE RETURNING TO SOME UNIQUE METHODS TO GET FOLKS BACK IN THE THEATERS.>> SUMMER MOVIES ARE STRUGGLING TO MAKE WAVES.

THROUGH THE BOX OFFICE IS DOWN ABOUT 24% AT THIS POINT VERSUS LAST YEAR.

>> MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND, A TRADITIONAL MAJOR MONEYMAKER FOR THE FILM INDUSTRY SAW THE LOWEST BOX OFFICE IN 29 YEARS.

LAST YEAR'S STRIKE MEANING WE CAN EXPECT A LIGHTER THAN USUAL SLATE OF MOVIES THIS SUMMER.

THAT FURTHER DRIVES FEARS OF A THEATRICAL MELTDOWN.

>> WE NEED A HERO FOR THE BOX OFFICE.

SEE THAT HERO COULD COME IN A VERY STRANGE FORM.>> RYAN REYNOLDS, TEASING THE UPCOMING DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE, BY DECLARING THE WAR OF THE POPCORN BUCKETS.

MOVIE THEATER CHAINS ARE LOOKING FOR ANY ANGLE TO COMPETE WITH STREAMING.

>> THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS MOVIE THEATERS ARE TRYING TO GET PEOPLE TO COME TO THE THEATER, GREAT FOOD AND BEVERAGE, RECLINING SEATS, GREAT SOUND AND VISION.

SO NOW THEY ARE ENTICING CUSTOMERS WITH COLLECTIBLE CONCESSIONS VESSELS FOR MAJOR RELEASES, LIKE GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE.

THEY ACHIEVED VIRAL INFAMY.

THAT FILM WENT ON TO AN 82 1/2 MILLION DOLLAR OPENING WEEKEND.

AND THAT PROVES THAT'S ALL IS FAIR IN MOVIE MARKETING.

>> THAT'S THE BIGGEST MOVIE MARKETING OF THE YEAR FOR JUNE, I THINK THAT PROVED THE POPCORN BUCKET JUST CREATED A CONVERSATION AND BUILT THE BRAND EVEN BIGGER.>> IN NEW YORK, EMILY WALDMAN.>> THIS IS A PREVIEW OF TIANA'S ADVENTURE IN DISNEY WORLD, IT REPLACES A DECADES-OLD SPLASH MOUNTAIN, WHICH FIRST OPENED IN DISNEYLAND BACK IN 1989.

IT'S BASED ON CHARACTERS FROM SONG OF THE SOUTH, WHICH HAS LONG BEEN CRITICIZED FOR STEREOTYPICAL PORTRAYALS OF AFRICAN AMERICANS, AND A ROMANTICIZED VIEW OF THE ANTEBELLUM SOUTH.

IT'S INSPIRED BY THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG, IT OPENS IN ORLANDO ON JUNE 28, NO OPENING DATE YET FOR CALIFORNIA HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED.

HERE'S A LOOK AT WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON FOR TOMORROW IN THE KPBS'S ROOM.

APPLE ANNOUNCED A PARTNERSHIP WITH OPEN A.I., THE MAKER OF CHAT GPT, AND NPR MORNING EDITION IS DISCUSSING THE DEAL THAT WILL BRING A.I.
