pacific islander heritage month, and organizers say this is a time to celebrate their heritage , but also really to remember the important roles that the communities do serve. >> ktvu is christian captain has a preview of what is ahead. >> some parts of san francisco's chinatown are already buzzing with activity. organizers of this year's asian american pacific islander heritage month activities want to see the whole area come alive, with visitors. >> we share the month with many other special occasions such as cinco de mayo, such as jewish american heritage month, but we are here today to talk about our aapi heritage month. >> claudine chang from the apa heritage foundation says aapi heritage month is a wonderful time to welcome the rest of the world to chinatown and remind everyone that the neighborhood is open for business year round, not just during lunar new year celebrations. >> every saturday, there are six, five, six, seven events happening right here in chinatown. and i think you can basically spend the whole day here and enjoy the programs. and

in between, get a bite and visit all the small businesses. >> community leaders unveiled events underway each weekend throughout the month, including lion dancing, health fairs and a chinatown cultural festival, which will shut down six blocks of the neighborhood to make way for a parade and celebration in the streets. >> this parade will definitely attract a lot of people to come and to understand our culture, to understand the community. so definitely, we're hoping this event will bring economic enhancement to a lot of merchants. >> well, aapi heritage month is a time to celebrate. many say the asian and pacific islander communities in the city can't let their guard down. although hate crimes are down from their peak in 2021, many say even at a time when they should be celebrating their heritage, many still feel the need to be vigilant. lily ho from delta chinatown says aapi violence is an issue for everyone to speak out against, not just the victims communities. >> the asian american community relies on the support of our allies to say something and do

something. when something does happen. and even if statistics have changed since the peak of anti-asian hate in 2021, they're still there and they still live with us. this weekend's festivities get underway friday night, with the return of the night market here in chinatown. >> dozens of businesses will be participating, and you can expect some big crowds around the area in san francisco, christien kafton, ktvu, fox two news. >> a nice day today. really pleasant in terms of temperatures. the winds pretty breezy, especially in the east bay and out in the central valley. and the winds are going to continue breezy in the inland bay valleys tonight and tomorrow morning. the wind advisory is going to extend itself there until tomorrow morning in. that's places like woodland and places like davis, 82 today in hayward, sets up a few degrees. we had a bunch of low 80s today 83 in vallejo, 66 in pacifica. no fog to speak of right now, but looks like that fog wants to come back on friday. we'll keep an eye on it for you. beautiful

shot. this is what wind does though, right? look at that. does not look like this time of year. usually this time of year, you've got the fog, right? the spring fog. and then you've got the high pressure kind of creating particulate or capping the atmosphere so that all this car exhaust ends up kind of in this layer kind of the layer we breathe. but when the winds blow, it just washes it all out. and that picture sort of illustrates that. the plan is for, for the temperatures to pretty much peak out as we go into thursday and then kind of work their way down by the weekend. they cool off pretty significantly, especially on sunday and monday. the wind gusts will continue in these areas. now this earlier or yesterday, the advisory was further west, but now it's been pushed back a little bit. but you can see these north bay redding down to about sacramento. pretty darn windy. and that's going to stay in effect through tomorrow morning. the wind advisory is and so it's windy. like if you're driving up 5 or 505 if you did today you know what i'm talking about. but if you are tomorrow you'll know what i'm talking about then too.

the winds right now in oakland are offshore. there's the arrows 31 miles an hour, 32 mile an hour. gusts at santa rosa, 21 mile an hour gusts at san carlos is windy and it will be a little less windy for parts of the bay tomorrow. but those inland sections of the bay, napa and antioch and our friends in vallejo, it'll be breezy. current temperatures upper 70s. so it's cooled off a little bit. wow, 13 degrees warmer than it was yesterday in 15 degrees warmer than it was today or yesterday in hayward. the forecast overnight lows. look at that. 60 in napa. so that's a function of the offshore winds and the air sinking. even though it's nighttime the nights are long enough to get temperatures in the upper 50s. the air is going to sink a little bit. so it's going to warm. so 60 degrees overnight low is pretty impressive for this time of year . 86 in napa tomorrow. so they come up again. air quality is still good. winds will be lighter by tomorrow afternoon and we've got a nice looking weekend ahead. mother's day julie looks pretty good as well, just a little bit cooler and a bit of fog at the coast.

san jose sharks. they have not had many reasons to smile over the past few years, but that changed yesterday when they drew the number one pick in next month's draft. and that's a big deal because, sitting atop everyone, a draft board is a potential future star in 17 year old canadian macklin celebrini last year as a freshman at boston university, celebrini, he won the hobey baker award as the nation's best player and he's got bay area ties. his dad is warriors vp of player health and performance rick celebrini. >> to see the sharks win it. win the lottery was was phenomenal. now obviously that's different than macklin getting selected by san jose. so that still has to happen. if it happens and if he were lucky enough to get selected. and you know, that's when the excitement starts. he was born to be a hockey player. and as much as i tried to convince him into being a soccer

player or other sports or other activities that he always gravitated to being a hockey player. >> nikola jokic of the denver nuggets. he is in some pretty select company after being named the nba's most valuable player for the third time in his career. jokic. he becomes the first center since kareem abdul jabbar in the 70s to win three mvp's in four seasons. he also joins wilt chamberlain as the only two players in history to finish the season in the top five in scoring, rebounding and assists. here's how the three time mvp celebrated the news. >> 2024 mvp from the denver nuggets. yeah. >> nikola jokic yeah it's like old hat. >> an epic champions league semifinal between powerhouses real madrid and bayern munich.

the two european giants. they were tied at two on the aggregate coming into today's second leg in madrid. bayern up one nothing in the 88th minute when vince jr puts one on net. bayern keeper manuel neuer, he doesn't cover it up and you saw joselu put in the rebound to tie the game just over two minutes later it's joselu again deflecting in the cross with his knee and that's the game winner. bayern appeared to score the equalizer just before the final whistle, but a controversial offside was called. real wins 2 to 1 to reach the final for the sixth time in ten years. how about the a's hosting the defending champion texas rangers for a double header at the coliseum? shay langoliers had himself an afternoon, yeah, he knows that one's gone the moment he hits it. two run shot, eighth of the year. gives the a's a three. nothing lead in the second inning. langley was three for four career high five rbis. a's win the first game, 9 to 4. now, langoliers hit his ninth
