The snow showers that were coming down we see them at a bunk of our traffic cameras, near 95 and cotman avenue, snow is falling at this point and highway is just wet. We are not seeing big delays, and visabilitvisabilities. And the boulevard in east falls its snowing lighter here but the northbound traffic is locked up off the execution on up to ninth street where we have the broken down truck of the indrive that is here all afternoon and creating big delays on the northbound side of the boulevard. Snowing lighter than it was last half hour in center city. Vine street expressway still jammed and traffic is not light that is for sure. And dont forget Market Street remains blocked at eighth and 12th because of falling ice. That is creating gridlock. And falling ice on the delaware Memorial Bridge has the outer lanes blocked in both directions and a number of the Regional Rail trains are canceled this afternoon because of crew shortages. More people are on the road today following yesterdays storm of course, but driver whos dont properly clean the snow and ice off their vehicles are creating dangerous conditions for other drivers. Andrew was driving his suv on i95 near route 141 in delaware when his windshield was hit by a slab of ice and it fell off a tractor trailer and the windshield was pushed in and badly cracked and the force of the ice broke the passenger side mirror off. He was not injured. I had glass all over my lap during the whole thing that went down. Actually turned out it could be worse but turned out better than i thought. Well delaware does not have a specific snow or ice removal law on the books, since 2014 there are several bills on the books that would allow officers to fine drivers that dont properly clear off their vehicles but so far no legislation is passed in the first state.

Finance you are, clearly the president was wrong. And two pages of trumps income taxes from more than a decade ago are out after the president spent the last year of the campaign refusing to release them. David k. Johnson says he received the two page tax summary of the president s taxes in 2005 in the mail unanimously and released them. And shows an income of 138 million and paid 38 million in taxes and tax rate about 25 and declared 103 million in losses. Democrats still want the president to release his full tax returns like other president s since nixon. They were merely, as we say in minnesota a cocktail weenie appetizer right .
