Back on Eyewitness News this morning with more delays likely today at one of america s busiest airports. Water pipe burst at new yorks jfk airport yesterday flooding baggage claim area, soaking suitcases, disrupting operations there. One of several delays at the airport as it recovers from last weeks snowstorm. Passengers from seven different planes went through customs without claiming their luggage. They were told to leave the airport without their bags. The initial flood that took place was quite severe. It wound up with 3 inches of water on all on two thirds, the southern two thirds of the terminal four arrivals area, the water cascaded out into the frontage, and into the roadway, with the freezing temperatures, that meant that ice formed. The broken pipes forced cancellation of 143 flights as well. Time now 4 43. Look at that. And you havent been here to actually experience as we know it. No. It is very warm where he was, katie, but talking about maybe slight warm up around here pretty soon. Really nice. I brought with me. You know . Stuck in customs at jfk. Still got though declare couple of items is. Have this is not the best way to start off the new week, jim, loverly to have you back, i think thats at least a nice breitbart spot for everyones mornings, things almost completely back together here, still missing meisha, regardless, we will ends one wintery precipitation, specifically the p much hours. Big old mess headed our way and will be bringing in mix of sleet, snow, likely freezing rain, as well. That poses big problems, because, you dont need a lot of rain that freezes on contact, g major problems, as every noontime, may be little bit of precipitation working it way into the west most counties, but generally past lunchtime that this starts to get underway. There may be few breaks around the region, but look at this, if this comes in as solid swat of sleet or just rain that freezes on contact, you have entire couple every counties here that will have the thin glaze, it is so cold outside it doesnt really matter what comes through in the form of precipitation, it will not held on contact, so through even pm rush here, it could just be a solid glass of ice coming through here it, likely isnt going to actually amount to much. But the problems that it bridges with it are going to be very, very, you know, impressive. And impactful to your evening travels here, so all getting out of here into late tonight. But again, spec some rain, ice amounts, this tells the story. This isnt much. If this were snow there is would be no problem whatsoever but this is going to create a glaze specially on anything thats not really treated any more, since the most recent snow. So, take a look forward here. We get past today. At least it will not only rebound but rebounds in a huge way, we finley get past freezing for the first day since the day after christmas here today. We just keep that trends going ment look at friday, pat, trade off. You got rain. But 60 degrees, are you kidding me . The only glaze i like is on my donut. Im with you. We are getting some donuts later, ill tell but that in a little bit, yes. Oh. You like that . Here we go. On the roadways this morning, 95, this is going southbound at girard avenue. No delays right here. And then as you keep going south then make a turn through the vine street expressway, no delays here either this morning. We do have a fire though, house fire in west philadelphia, out in the mill creek section, north holly between brown street and parish street, so between 41st. Also, the water main issues weve been telling you about, one up in jfk, several here across the Delaware Valley over the last week, plus north 54th street near arch street where trang is on the scene, so well hear from her, also one affecting septa. Water main break is flowing from the uptown feeder underground. Southbound trains are bypassing susquehanna and dauphin stations, right near temples campus. Jim, rahel, back to you. Thank you, pat.

Rosas fresh pizza and pats in south philly make the pies, they hands out slices to hungry people they see along the way. Started the project about 18 months ago. Most people out there, they get, you know, Peanut Butter and jelly or just sandwich, which is good when that happens.
