September 30th, the last day of the month. Im gigi barnett, in for don scott. Wjz has weather and traffic together. We begin with tim williams in the weather center. Good morning. In for marty bass this morning. Beautiful morning. Temperatures averaging just around 50 degrees. We are at 49 in elkton, 50 down on the shore. Our daytime high goes up to just around 75 degrees with lows down into the 50s. We will have the complete forecast coming up in a few minutes. Rush hour is on the move. Sharon is keeping an eye on it in the wjz Traffic Control. Not moving far very fast this morning right now. We have a new accident to tell you on 29 southbound just after 108. All lanes blocked right there. Also on 97 southbound at 32, we still have an accident there at the exit blocking two left lanes. And fire activity downtown. That is going to be two alarm building fire on east cold spring at york blocking all lanes. Speed on the beltway looking good. Same goes for 95 between white marsh and the tunnel. Speeds are looking normal but close to delays in that particular shot. Thats a look at 29 at 108 where we have an accident blocking all of the main lanes there. Here is gigi barnett with all of the stories that everybody is talking about. At midnight, the government may shut down. Congress cant seem to find a compromise on a bill to keep the government open for business. Susan mcguinness reports for wjz. Reporter a partial Government Shutdown begins at midnight unless congress can reach a deal. This afternoon, the senate will likely vote down a house plan to fund the government because it calls for a oneyear delay of the president S Health Care law. In the final few hours, house leaders say they will once again trying to weaken obamacare. There will be a few options for the senate to look at again. Reporter dop members stood in front of capitol, criticizing Senate Democrats for not working in the hours before the shutdown. The senate needs to act. Why arent they meeting . Reporter chris says that republicans have been stalling for a week and bringing the debate down to the deadline was the plan. Drive the country to the cliff and say give us what we want, end the Affordable Care act or were going to shut down the government. Reporter the Health Care Law is the Sticking Point. Neither side appears willing to budge. Harry reed has essentially told the house of representatives and the american people, go jump in a lake. About 45 times now the House Republicans have voted to abolish obamacare, not to change it, not to come up with any specific change. Reporter president obama has called a Cabinet Meeting today to prepare for a possible shutdown. In washington, susan mcguineas. House republicans also passed a bill that would promise to pay the military in the event of a shutdown. But the senate likely wont vote on that today. New details about a fire on the bay bridge that shut down the westbound lanes and backed up traffic for hours. Mike has more. Good morning, mike. Reporter good morning, gigi. Good morning, everyone. The bay bridge is back open. A spectacular fire that was inside the bay bridge and Construction Materials are suspected. This video sent to the wjz news room, flames and smoke rising from the westbound span of the bridge at its highest point. It happens around 6 00 sunday afternoon. Crews quickly put out the flames but westbound lanes remained closed for about two hours while inspectors look add the bridge. Once deemed safe, cars are allowed to cross. But the closure backed up traffic for miles in both directions. Construction was done on that part of the bridge and they have not released the official cause of the fire. Reporter the good news is that no one was hurt. Thank you, mike. That is indeed good news. Stay with wjz as we continue to follow this developing story.

Michelle richy has more on the suspect and the victim. Reporter good morning. We know the female hostage in the situation had a restraining order against the suspect who was shot and killed by police. Scary moments at this home on the 700 block of erie street where Police Responded to a call for help because of a fight. When officers arrived on the scene, they were not able to locate where the fight was. They didnt visually hear or see anything. Reporter instead neighbors directed police to this home where they found 34yearold jones who had barricaded himself inside of a home with a female hostage, refusing to let her go. Neighbors say they had to evacuate their homes as officers moved in on the suspect. Quite shocking. I just seen the guy the other day. Reporter officers with the Hartford County Sheriffs Office were called to help negotiate with the suspect. One of our officers that was there is trained and is part of the negotiation team. He had a dialogue with the suspect. Reporter it worked. Jones let the woman out, who had a restraining order against him. But he would not make it out alive. The suspect made a gesture to indicate that he had a gun. That is when he was shot and killed. He seemed a little off to me but not too much. Reporter and the officer who shot jones is now on routine administrative leave, pending the outcome of this investigation. Im michelle richie, wjz Eyewitness News. The woman who was held hostage according to police had no reported injuries. We are following a developing story out of california this morning where a small jet has crashed at A Santa Monica airport.

Georges county are investigating a half Million Dollars heist at a Jewelry Store. Surveillance video looks like something from a movie.

Another tough loss on the road for the ravens as stunned fans look on, the ravens offense threw five interceptions on the day. Leading up to the game at buffalo, the ravens spoke of getting their running game in gear. They had ray rice back and hoped to run down the depleted buffalo defense. Instead we saw the worst running performance in ravens history. They ran the ball just nine times, the fewest ever. They ran into big problems with interceptions. Flaccos pass off of the hands of dixon. That was the second interception of the game. More to come. The bills converted that turnover into a touchdown. Jackson run its through the middle of the ravens defense. Flacco and the ravens trailed by 13 at the half. Make it close second half. Touchdown pass to smith. Smith had a career high of 166 yards. Ravens down by 6. Down by 3 with a minute to go, looking for a tying field goal. But flaccos pass deflected. Picked off. Five interceptions. The most ever in a game for flacco. Another tough loss on the road. 2320 the final. We have to get better. A lot of that falls on me today. But, yeah, we have young guys and were going to get better at all that stuff. You know, like i said, a lot of that falls on me today and just throwing the ball to the wrong team. If we dont do that, then this game probably would have been a little different. The ravens record for the season falls to 22. Still winless on the road and the next game is on the road when they play the dolphins in miami. Coach harbaugh will meet with the media later today, several questions to answer after the tough loss to buffalo. Back to you. The ravens look to get their road win of the season next week in miami.

Gigi and tim, how are you doing . Were good. How about you . Im doing great. Im riled up. Not about the ravens losing. Okay. But the way that our fans, my fellow ravens fans whine and cry and talk about joe flacco threw five interceptions and their offensive line was terrible and we cant run the ball. Do we ever give credit to the other team . The Buffalo Bills came out yesterday and kicked our butts. Ron. Plain and simple. And John Harbaugh said the same thing after the game.

Looking at a nice start in pasadena and all points around the metro area. 48 in cumberland. 50 down on the shore. Near 60 in annapolis. We are at 52 in westminster and 48 in belair. Winds calm around much of the state. West flow around much of the area. It will bring in drier air, shifting from the northeast wind that we have had bringing in moisture off of the coastline. Were now going to see basically a bit of a shift. And that shift will bring a warmup. Our temperatures, normal high is 72 degrees. We had a front moving through here. Clouds associated with it. It came through dry. Its still pushing across the state. It is not bringing us any rain. So the front is only going to drop the temperatures into the 70s for today. We have been in the 70s really. Now that High Pressure is sinking down to the south, the clockwise flow around it is tapping into warmer air the rest of the week. That that means for us, the southerly flow will kick the temperatures up today. Down to 52 tonight. Look at this, 80 degrees for the first day of october. 86 on wednesday. 84, 81 and 80 heading into next weekend. Lets take a look at the rush hour this morning with sharon in the Traffic Control. Good morning. Good morning, everyone. Good news. That accident on 29 that we have been telling you about at 108 is gone. We still have the one that we have had all morning at the exit blocking two left lanes. And activity there in the city on york road at east cold spring. All lanes blocked there. Speeds slow on the west side. 40 is the average on the west side of the loop. Thats a look at the west side of the beltway. Plenty of brake lights. We are moving bert as i mentioned at 29 and 108. Brought to you by your maryland toyota dealer. Do you ever dream of all the places that you would like to go . Toyota is ready to take you there. Right now is a great time to find a great deal on a toyota. Ready to coffee with . Yes. Morning its with Jerry Oconnell. And the satellite interview is furnished by cbs. Good morning. Huge round of applause. For the next five minutes, were going to smooze and be guys and chill out. How is it going today, men . Its going great. Well. This show really intrigues me. And take this question im about to lay out as one of im wanting to know as opposed to an editorial comment. Okay. Are we here to make men look stupid . Im tired of tv shows that make men look stupid . Im not sure that they look really smart in our show. I was going to say no. And then if we can editorialize, i would say that were here to make us laugh at ourselves. Theyre not stupid guys, which i like. Theyre not brilliant. Theyre not rocket scientists. Right . My character is definitely not a rocket scientist. Thankfully not dumb. Theres a lot of heart. Here is where im going. You can watch commercials for the past ten years or so, its been beat up the guy. Were so stupid we dont know how to rent a car or this or that and we had to be saved from ourselves by the lady standing next to us. Im tired of that procedure trayal. Tray portrayal. But youre saying its just guys. Yeah. Its just guys. Each of us has a strong suit. For example, i think the comedy that youre talking about, we take it a step further. I have a trashy apartment, eats beef jerky and cant cook. This guy cooks gourmet meals. I have to cook for a woman and he teaches me how to do that. Instead of going for the obvious joke, they explore how somebody who cooks marvelous meals can teach an i idiot like me. Im like Gordon Ramsey but im wearing a speedo by the pool. I bet a bunch of guys have had to do that. You dont know how to entertain. Here is what youre going to do. Ask your buddies in times like this. Theyre about four guys going through a divorce. Its eye motionally the lowest point in their lives and how they sort of help each other out during this difficult time. You cant go to the self help section of the bookstore in these situations. Youre going to call your buddies. The show is mostly about friendship than anything else. That is cool. Let me ask you this. How much truth is in the show . Im thinking of the man show. Do you remember that show . There were blunt truings that maybe the women did not want to hear. Do we deal with blunt truths in we are men . Yeah. I mean, our boss who created the show, Rob Greenberg he comes from how i met your mother. He was divorced. He moved into one of these temporary furnished housing complexes and he was emotionally distraught after a divorce. And he met a group of other men who were also emotionally distraught going through or just going through a divorce and they were a support group for each other. Thats how he came up with the idea of we are men. Yes, truth. Scary truth. Listen hopefully there is comedy in that. We have about 50 seconds before they slam this window shut. Its another single camera show. We had Robin Williams on yesterday. The office, picturing how that was shot in your mind. I heard a previous interview and they said that it gives you latitude of things that you can do it. Yeah. I drown in one of the episodes. We actually shoot in the pool behind us. Theres a lot of comedy to seeing a guy going through this instead of having to go through it in front of a live audience.
