Then this is just a big area of High Pressure come sunday night, dominating our weather. Were looking at a decent cold front here and its going to be in the friday, saturday time frame.

Well check in with dave for a look at the forecast. Dave good morning. Upper 60s, lower 70s, picking up from yesterday. Most areas just a couple of degrees cooler. I dont think thats going to change much the next few days. Mixture of clouds and sunshine. You get the warm afternoons, highs in the upper 80s with a few passing inland showers. Theyll be moving again east to west. There will be some big changes late week and early into the weekend and that we will discuss in just a little bit. But lets check the traffic early on this monday. Vanessa looking busier out there, dave. Well start out with a live look at the downtown interchange. 275 and i4. Yeah. Lots of cars out there but the travel times budging out of the green zone as folks make their way toward the interchange. Pinellas county, your drive will be good. Heading out of the interchange, i4, 275 to mlk, junior boulevard. Four minutes is the drive and the drive south coming from pasco county along 75, state road 54 to bruce b downs boulevard and hillsborough. Laura the first call to a man and his pregnant girlfriend fighting at a home on blue jay drive in holiday and ended many hours later when deputies shot and killed a man. Russell and ken is there for us this morning. Sheriff spoke at 3 00 this morning and said they had no choice in doing what they had to do, right . Reporter yeah. He said that he was really playing with a potentially deadly situation to begin with. Were talking about drugs and alcohol, throw in a little vien he ended up losing his life as a result of that. The man had an argument with his girlfriend who was pregnant early sunday night. It got out of control and the Sheriffs Office was called in. When the swoot team arrived, they sent in a robot to the house and canines. They negotiated with this guy for hours but apparently to no avail. They couldnt make any progress so they went in and found him holed up in the bathroom. They say they tased him. That didnt stop him from him. Thats when they shot him. When somebody says theyre going to have a suicide by cop, let me tell you, those numbers are rising. Were seeing it more and more. Those criminals and realize, when we come, we come to make peace. But if you cause us to have to, we will take the actions necessary because we will make sure that our people go home alive and well make sure every one of our citizen county is safe. Reporter were getting more information like the names of the people involved, the man who unfortunately is dead at this point, the pregnant girlfriend, that kind of thing. Usually in a situation like this, the cop or the cops or deputies in this case are usually put on administrative leave after shooting someone. That presumably is what will happen back here. Terrible situation, unfortunate. An intense rescue on floridas east coast. A car drove over an bankment and burst into flames. They found people hand in hand trying to lift the drive to her safety. The driver was in shock or panic and had to be physically restrained while being pulled from the car which added a whole other element to the rescue but the officers and Good Samaritans were able to get him out. Hes just got minor injuries. La mosul after two years of isis control. Russell the push will be the biggest military action in iraq since american troops left in 2011. Here is more. The operation to Liberate Mosul has begun. Iraqs Prime Minister announcing his forces are now engaged fighting isis to reclaim iraqs second largest city. Its the last major city still under isis control. From mosul. The Jihadist Group is forced from a stronghold where it had promised to fight a final apocalyptic battle with the west. Now theres an operation to free mosul with Coalition Forces led by the u. S. Providing air support. That would be the beginning of the end of isil in mosul this chapter of isis and history in iraq militarily. Reporter Officials Say there are some concerns regarding the political arrangements for the days after liberation. The humanitarian situation is a big concern for us. Kurdish region is proud to have welcomed 1. 8 million displaced persons from the rest of iraq and refugees from syria until now. Reporter while the kurdish civilians fleeing the city, it will require help from the international community. We cannot afford anything beyond opening our doors and providing safety and security so for any of their requirements, for water, for food, for accommodation, tent, we need help of the international committee. Russell according to the u. N. Up to one Million People could be displaced from mosul during the operation. There are more than 7,500 iraq. Over half from the u. S. Is it too early to Start Talking about the weekend . Laura never. Russell dave tells us about the big weather change thats on the way. Laura and then Jennifer Epstein is live for us at big cat rescue where seven wildcats are being rescued this morning. Dont have a cow, man. Wll tell you about the honor how tall are you .

And it will be my mission to build a country where our children can rise as high as their dreams and hard work take them. That means good schools for every child in every zip code. College that leads to opportunities. Not debt. And an economy where every Young American can find a job that lets them start a family of their own. Respecting one another. And never giving up. I want our success to be measured by theirs. Im Hillary Clinton and i approve this message. We dance on the salsa team together, and its like a lot of power in what we wear.

Youve come for your favorite dish enchiladas tacos. . Welcome back come back again and again for the epcot food Wine Festival or even all four theme parks. Become an annual passholder now and get 13 months for the price of 12. Dave 6 39 and 71 degrees outside. You know, these dew points have been sitting in the upper 60s for a week and a half now, so again, not too humid, not too dry. Were just kind of in the middle. Thats why we call humidity. Northnortheast winds at seven miles an hour and theres a 66 in ocala. But you go to the east coast and oh, boy. Its 81 in stewart and 80 in west palm with that onshore wind flow continuing. Now, yes, saturday morning, a little surprise, right . You had little showers. Thankfully it did clear out enough and it came back late in the day yesterday. Well see a few of the tiny move across the state showers. North to northeast winds sitting on top of us. These are very low top showers so theyre not a big deal. Theyre just a quick shower and then theyre gone. Notice the drier air sitting on top of us now. This is what was responsible for some weekend rain we had. Just a little bit of extra lift in the atmosphere. But look at all this moisture sitting out here. Theres actually an area of disturbed weather, right . We just got rid of matthew and nicole and this has a for development over the next several days. And as i say that, though, i dont think at least at this point its going to be a huge concern to the lower 48 because watch. Ill show you why with the future cast. Next couple of days, just a couple of tiny showers streaming across the state. You can start to see some potential development down here in the bottom righthand corner of your screen. At the same time, were also going to get a cold front that does, its going to pick up this moisture, carry it to the north and then eventually to the northeast. So while there is that potential for development, it should stay a decent distance away from our state and that front comes in over the weekend, and that front will finally, finally dry us out. Now, when i show you the sevenday forecast in a minute or so, i can tell you that were going to have to tweak it a little bit as we get closer to the weekend but the way it sets saturday afternoon, drier air settles in and then sunday looks to be a nice day. Partly cloudy, very warm again today, isolated inland shower like weve seen the past several afternoons. Sunrise later and later. 7 32. Were almost there. Were almost turning the clocks back. Just a few weeks away, right . Highs 87. Tonight clear, mild, low 70 degrees and tomorrow back to 87 degrees and partly cloudy skies. Northeast winds at five to 15 knots, still settling in with the moderate chop and a couple of hours way from a low tide which is at 9 36. So the way it sets up, showers and then rain saturday morning. Possible. But again, well tweak this as we get closer and the front becomes more apparent how its going to work through. Sunday, notice thats tampa. 62. That means east and north, youre going to settle back into the upper 50s come sunday morning. There it is, something to look forward changing things up. Vanessa did you say were a couple of weeks away from setting the clocks back . Dave were a few. Vanessa thats like a holiday for us. We get the extra hour, right . Russell did you hear this . Vanessa thats good times for the morning show. All right. Thank you. 6 42 right now and looks like we do have some trouble brewing on the roadways. Pasco county drivers, consider maybe taking collier parkway boulevard southbound. We do have some eastbound delays along 54 so make sure planning extra time there, but as i mentioned, its really jammed up heading south on land o lakes boulevard. Like i said before, collier parkway could be better for you. Well keep you posted on the delays we see out there. Meantime, use caution here. Traffic light medical function. Apparently the lights are not out but they are out of the normal sequence so that traffic pattern might lk make sure youre paying attention. Laura thank you. Were going to get over to walter allen right now. Russell hes doing the Charley Belcher shift this week. Good morning. For a few days, anyway. I should say a few days. Walter how was the weekend . Laura good. What about you . Walter it was good. I do want to share this. I know charley sometimes takes his mondays out to share some weekend. I want to share a really great event that i was a part of, lucky to be a part of on sunday. Harley davidson. You dont typically find me at the Tampa Harley Davidson dealership. It was called all for kids and it really was. We had them on friday, bikers against child abuse and the guardian ad litem and they partnered together for all for kids. It was all these different organizations that really help out in the foster care system here in hillsbo and i want to say there were about 27,000, 30,000 kids in the foster care program. One of the highest numbers in the state of florida so pouring a lot of resources into helping out with that problem. So 3500 kids are in the foster program. There are about 25 different organizations that came that really showed off, you know, the Different Things that they offer, whether it be, you know, getting people licensed to be foster parents or making sure and so it really was a very fantastic event. I dont know if were showing the picture, but even natalie, shes several months pregnant and shes out there and we were aving a good time. It is weird becaus you have the big bad biker guys, right . And they have the Harley Davidson and the leather and theyre bad to the bone and then squirt gun fights with the kids and theyre running around and i dont know who was having more fun. I dont know if the biker guys were having more fun or if the laura you showed the picture on friday of the hard looking guys getting their nails painted pink by the girls in the program. It was cute. Russell thats neat. Walter their hearts are so big and so it really was an honor to be part of that event this weekend. So right now this morning, im at low cal market. Were going to go to eats that you can enjoy throughout the day. Pro when youre in the kitchen, we have an idea for you.
