High temps return to Bay Area, Central Coast on Thursday
The weather system that scorched the Bay Area and Central Coast in early July is hanging a U-turn and is headed back to the region with more heat, according to the National Weather Service. Around July 4, a ridge of high pressure in the atmosphere was sitting right off the coast and pushed temperatures into the triple digits in some inland areas for the better part of two weeks. That same system is now boomeranging up from the southwestern desert region and will drag high temperatures back into the region starting Wednesday and lasting until the middle of next week, said weather...
Nevada county reverses controversial vote and certifies two recounts while legal action looms
RENO, Nev. (AP) — Commissioners in Nevada’s second most populous county certified the results of two local recounts on Tuesday, reversing course on a controversial vote against certification that spurred legal action and put Washoe County in unchartered legal territory. The 4-1 decision overturns last week’s vote against certifying election recount results from June’s primary in the politically mixed swath of northern Nevada, which includes Reno. The rare move had potential implications for how the November elections could play out in one of the nation’s most important swing counties. Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar and Attorney General Aaron Ford are still waiting for the state Supreme Court to address a petition they filed last week that seeks to confirm the legal obligations of county commissioners to certify election results. While it is unclear if or when the court will take that up, a ruling could set precedent and apply to county commissions statewide who refuse to certify results in November. Aguilar had said that the circumstances of last week’s vote could set “a dangerous precedent” that undermines the confidence of voters.
