Here are the top five stories today in Oceanside-Camp Pendleton:
- San Diego County Crime Log: Here's a look at some of this week's police, fire and courtroom stories from across the county. A San Diego fugitive was placed on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted Fugitives List. A live pipe bomb was found alongside I-15 in the Miramar area. Victims in a double-fatal Chula Vista shooting have been identified. A burglary suspect was arrested after a pursuit in North County. A suspect has been jailed in the presumed slaying of a missing Escondido man. (Patch)
- From heat wave to near hurricane, Tropical Storm Kay has changed the forecast from hot to wet and windy in San Diego County. The storm had been categorized as a hurricane, but weakened as it made landfall Thursday night, then began shifting to the northwest over the ocean. Tropical Storm Kay still packed a punch, however, bringing widespread rain across the region. Forecasters said gusts topping 109 mph were already recorded at Cuyamaca Peak, while coastal areas such as Carlsbad and Imperial Beach were seeing gusts in the 30 mph range. (Patch)

- The new COVID-19 bivalent boosters have arrived in San Diego County and limited supplies are now available at vaccination locations across the region, including pharmacies and medical providers. The new bivalent boosters were developed to generate an immune response from the original COVID-19 virus, as well as the BA.4 and BA.5 Omicron subvariants. Anyone who received a previous COVID-19 vaccine less than two months ago can get the bivalent booster shot eight weeks after their last shot. (County News Center)
