Avoid mlk at forbes road. Were already seeing delays in the area, some work arounds for you. U. S. 92.

Dave for many, its back to school. Were dusting off the school bus forecast. Its a decent start to t mid to upper 70s. Its muggy out but we dont have any significant rain on the radar yet. We will have showers and thunderstorms popping up on skytower radar later this morning along the coast and then shifting inland during the afternoon. But not before we get to the mid to upper 80s. Jennifer we start with a tragedy at a Police Training academy. An officer accidentally shot and killed a 73yearold woman during a role playing scenario. Russell investigators are ammunition in it. Shayla reaves is at the Punta Gorda Police station right now with the latest on whats going on and the search for answers. Good morning. Reporter yeah. Good morning to you. There are certainly a lot of questions surrounding this situation and getting those answers could take some time. Right now were on the back side of the Public Safety complex housing the Punta Gorda Police department. This is an area right there on the other side of that caution tape where individuals can cross at this time. This includes, of course, the Florida Department of law enforcement. Weve learned that the police chief for the Punta Gorda Police department has asked that agency to conduct an independent investigation into the events unfolding. Were told this all started with a love role playing exercise when to use and not use lethal force. It happened as part of the a Training Session attended by more than 30 people. Among those who attended, 73yearold mary nolten. She was randomly selected to take part in what was supposed to be a, quote, shoot, dont shoot scenario. Instead, simulation became reality when a live round struck nolten who later died from injuries. The officer involved has been placed on administrative type of case. Listen to what the Punta Gorda Police chief had to say. Our Police Department and all our city leaders are absolutely devastated for everyone involved in this unimaginable event. I am asking that if you pray, you pray for marys husband and family and for all of the officers and witnesses that are involved in this incident. Everyone involved is in a state roich reporter this was part of an eight session Citizen Training Program designed to introduce citizens here in punta gorda to different aspects of City Government and the course on tuesday was just one component of that. According to her facebook page, mary nolten was from minnesota but lived in punta gorda. She was a board member for friends of the library, a lu promote awareness of appreciation for and use of the punta gorda library.

Its disappointing, they went on recess right when hurricane was starting, rainy season starting. The federal government, the white house, congress, they need to come together. They need to be a partner. This is not just a state issue. This is a national, international issue. Russell well, so far Health Officials think the transmission f the virus by mosquitos is only taking place in that wynwood area, less than one jennifer Delta Airlines is desperately trying to resume a full flight schedule.

This is sky fox checking out the intersection of forbes road and mlk and thats where traffic is northbound and southbound so that traffic appears to be unaffected. But its the eastbound, westbound drivers stopped at the intersection and of course, just east of here is where the actual shooting scene is taking place. Looks like some emergency crews are still showing up and investigators so theyre letting those folks pass. This is a look at the scene itself. It appears to involve two vehicles from what were able to tell and we do know that this is a Fatal Shooting scene. Ml work arounds, u. S. 92 and sydney road. As far as the delays in the area, we are starting to see traffic stack up in the area of turkey creek road so northboundsouthbound where drivers are being detoured off and u. S. 92 thats one of the main work arounds. If you do plan on taking 92, keep in mind youll be jammed up in the westbound direction. So far sydney road looks good. Pinellas park, earlier we told in the down position blocking the intersection, 62nd avenue north at 49th street north. That has cleared. Dave some of the flooding in pasco county should be over soon, if not already. Its actually pretty dry overnight thankfully and at one point, a few dozen roads have flooding issues. So far, though, no homes. The county working on ways to reduce the risk of flooding in the future. It could be worse because look at t arizona. That is the top of a car under all that water. Tucson has gotten several inches of rain from the remnants of Tropical Storm javier and its still raining over in that area. Now, were still going to deal with showers and thunderstorms. I dont want to you think that. Now that that low is gone, everybody is good. Its going to be dry again. We still have a lot of moisture in the atmosphere but rather than the big rain bands all day on startgohers thunderstorms from the coastline to inland locations during the afternoon. Just kind of get back to normal. So we do have some cloud cover around. Were not Crystal River but we do have enough blue. How about the hudson camera . It was just dark yesterday and there were raindrops all over the camera so a much better look. Polk county, thats beautiful. Lakeland, mirror, we have that beautiful sunshine. Every once in a while, skytower radar shows us the tiniest of sprinkles, okay . As we get into the late Morning Hours and we see the winds begin to shift to more of an onshore flow, we will start to pop up showers along the coast and then push them inland. So keep your skytower radar app handy. Its an awesome tool. Youre going to need it. Its august. Were still in the rainy season. So to point that out for you, even though the rain chances may drop over the next few days, we still have to deal with afternoon storms. Go back to the coast, a little warmer brandon, tampa, both at 77. 78 degrees in the bradenton area. Big picture, this whole front just hanging around over south georgia, that pesky low is still spinning around. The thing is, its spinning closer and louisiana so theyre going to see all of that heavy rain that we saw, flood watches are out for parts of the area, Southeast Louisiana and even parts of the Florida Panhandle are still going to have to deal with the rainfall from the low. But as this moves away and High Pressure moves in, we get back to a more normal weather pattern around here which is eventually high temperatures in the lower 90s and the rain chance in the afternoon and evening, still unsettled today. Showers along the coast later this morning, shifting inland later today, 84 degrees. Tonight warm, steamy, low 77 and tomorrow, 89 scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Once again, theyll greet us and for the rest of the week, well drop the rain chances down a bit. Saturday 40 , sunday 30 and of course, that means we sweat as we make we get the high temperatures, russell, back to lower 90s. Russell thank you. 7 16 right now. Its meant to be.

It will be stopped at forbes road. Best work around is u. S. 92 and sydney road. I mentioned some side streets in the area, turkey creek as well as 92 are starting to jam up with extra traffic.

Overall rain chance will be this afternoon. 60 today, 50 tomorrow and on friday. Then from there, it actually looks like the rain chances go down a little bit for the weekend.

Lets go to the assistant principal and talk about career technical education. You have automotive. Program here. We have brand new lifts, brake, tire balance and mounting, were really excited.

Youre a kid, maybe going to the university is not your thing but you can make go ahead money and have a career by going through the program theyre offering here. Back to you. Russell very nice. Talk later. Thank you. Another off script moment from Donald Jennifer he has a distraction as trump tries to show nor dmin on the campaign trail. Donald trump deviated from his script at a Campaign Appearance and depending on who was listening, this was either a joke, a reference to political activism or a call to violence. In some ways, it was classic trump, going after Hillary Clinton. If she gets to pick her folks. Although the Second Amendment peep, maybe there is. I dont know. But ill tell you what. That will be a horrible day. Was the Second Amendment reference a suggestion for gun owners to take matters into their own hands . The Clinton Campaign says absolutely. And begun to fundraise off of those comments saying it was more evidence that trump isnt qualified. Nobody who is seeking a leadership position, especially the presidency, the leadership of the country, anything to count on violence and thats what he was saying. Trump says it was a right for gun rights activists to organize politically. Even reporters have told me, give me a break, but theyre dishonest people. The worst part may have been missed opportunities on a day clinton facing new lawsuits from the families of americans killed in the benghazi attacks and new the gunman at the pulse nightclub attacks was seated directly behind her at a campaign event. All left many republicans shaking their heads. It was his careless decision to go off script and try to make a funny which actually was not funny at all and the carelessness adds to how Hillary Clinton is trying to define him as wreckless and careless. And donald trump has been trying to do a better job sticking to the script and staying jennifer look at this. Its the latest poll for florida. It shows Hillary Clinton and onald trump in a virtual tie. 46 for her, 45 for him. Clinton has larger leads in ohio and pennsylvania which are two other battleground states. Russell almost 7 35. Candidates making a big deal out of a manufacturing jobs during this campaign. Theyve left a lot of voters industry is suffering. Our money adviser geoff simon from Raymond James is in this morning to set the record straight on this one. So whats going on with manufacturing . I know that the job creation may be down, but the output is up. Right . Yeah. If everyone listens only to politicians, you would think that manufacturing just is going down, down, down, down, in fact, going down and they have dropped pretty substantially. But overall, with unemployment, we just had the new jobs numbers come out for july and total job creation was 250,000. Manufacturing actually gained 9,000 jobs which was about 1 increase over the past year. So jobs actually in manufacturing arent going away. Theyre being created. Its the value of manufacturing thats remarkable. If you look at it, how does it fit in the overall u. S. Economy, its about 12 of the overall economy of the United States as a result of manufacturing output. The value, if you were to add up what everything is produced by manufacturers, its 2. 4 trillion, huge number. That number, this is the surprising thing. That number is up 40 over the last 15 years, since 2000. Whats not up is the number of there are 12. 3 Million Manufacturing jobs and those have dropped 30 since 2000. But they have started to rise again since 2010 so the value of stuff made by manufacturers are up. The number of jobs of people in manufacturing has gone down until the last couple of years. Russell i know there are a lot of reasons for Something Like this. Because robots are doing those jobs but is there an issue with some jobs going overseas as well . There is. Its the jobs that have gone overseas are the jobs where the product, the end product is a lower cost product. Were talking about textiles, clothing, things you wear. Smaller items, in some cases technology. Ipads and so forth, those things are being produced overseas. But the manufacturing jobs that are being created are higher Skilled College degrees and so forth. And those folks actually get paid pretty well. If you look at the wages per hour for manufacturing in the u. S. , it averages 37. 70, almost 38. In germany its 42. In japan, its over 23. But then you can see when you go offshore, taiwan, mexico, china is 4. 50 per hour. Costs somebody here in the United States for a manufacturing job. The difference is, the manufacturing jobs in the u. S. Require higher skills, Higher Education so people want manufacturing jobs, theyve got to get those skills. Russell what does it tell you, though, that some of these jobs some jobs in manufacturing are coming back, maybe new jobs in manufacturing is coming back . What does that say to you . Its very promising. People who have worked in manufacturing opportunities going forward. Getting paid 38, 40 an hour is not a bad wage these days. But the secret is, you need to go where those manufacturing jobs are. Theyre not in every state. Manufacturing is only 1 of floridas economy. You may have to go somewhere else and you need to get trained in those Technology Skills by and large that are required to get these manufacturing jobs. Russell got to learn how to adapt. There it is. This was interesting this morning. Im glad we did this. Jennifer we all know that money cant buy happiness but your happiness could last longer depending on what you buy with that money. Cornell university found people should spend more on experiences versus material items. In the long run, hiking the appalachian trail will make you happier than a new tablet. And there are three reasons why. First, we get used to new possessions and that shiny new toy syndrome, it eventually fades. Second, we keep always looking for the latest and the greatest. And lastly, the joness are always lurking nearby. When you buy a new car, youre thrilled. That is, until your friends buy a newer car. So true. On the flip side, experiences become part of our identity. They make us who we are. Even if the the experience is bad, its only a matter of time before its just a memory. Dave i can see it now. Trail. All of us in a four person tent. In sports the rays end a two game losing streak with a win in toronto beating the blue jays 92. Pitcher went six strong earnings to earn his second straight win. Thats the first time this season hes won consecutive starts. Longoria had three hits for the rays. Gymnastics team, they won the overall gold medal. Thats two in a row. They were just dominant, crushing the competition from start to finish. Now its time for the individual medals. That competition starts tomorrow night. Michael phelps added two more gold medals to his collection. He has 21 now. Three of them so far from these olympics. Phelps won the 200 meter butterfly last night before 4x200 meter freestyle relay. Russell . Russell well, apparently the olympic spirit is a strong force. I love this picture. Its one of the most shared pictures from the olympics so far. It shows two gymnasts, one from north korea and the other from south korea posing together for a selfie during a Training Session in the olympic park. Two countries have technically been at war more than 60 years but that did not stop these two athletes from posing with each other. Selfie a great gesture of the olympic spirit. Jennifer really is. The rock made a few of his fast and furious costars a little angry. Coming up, the name calling that is making headlines this morning. Russell and chasing another dream. Tim tebow in training to play a different professional sport and turns out its something he was pretty good at a while back. Of school. Post them to facebook, instagram or twitter with the hashtag, good day tb. Well share as many as we can throughout the morning. There goes jordan.

Z22whz zi0z vanessa our biggest traffic concern is a fatal investigation out of the plant city area. This is an earlier sky fox shot of east of forbes road. Once again, mlk, you can see, is shut down. Deputies telling us this is a road rang incident that, of course, led to the shooting. Walteral sen h walter allen s headed to the scene. From a traffic standpoint, mlk shut down at forbes to just east of there and were also seeing some heavy traffic in the area on those work arounds, u. S. 92 sydney road and turk any creek road northbound is looking slow since that is the connecting road between 92 and mlk. So well follow this one continually throughout the morning. Meantime, other road problems were following, manatee county, you have two crashes reported along state road 70 just west of 75. Its blocking the left lane in the eastbound direction. The second one is reported at 68th street blocking one eastbound and one westbound lane. You can see youre building some delays both directions along this roadway. Definitely worth some extra time. Give yourself extra time here as well out of st. Pete, reports of Traffic Signals out, 71st street north at 54th avenue north. You can see the traffic pattern likely disrupted in the area with the signals being out. Dave finally a chance to dry out. Its been water logged the last few mornings. Were going to get more rain we still have a loft moisture in the atmosphere, but at least you get everybody off to school, first day of school, not everybody, most everybody on a nice note, a drier note, toward the beach its beautiful as well. Again, given all this extra moisture we have in the atmosphere, by the time we get into late morning, early afternoon, were likely going to pop up the showers right along the coastline. Then well shift them inland for later today. If you look at the overall rain chance, still decent, but again, its not like its been the past few mornings. Love the mid to upper 70s that weve had for temperatures early on this morning. And if you can see, see how the showers, theyre trying to pop up but its not happening yet. So weve had nothing more than just a few sprinkles early this morning. There was one that just popped up between hernandocitrus county line and its next to nothing. As we get into the late morning, early afternoon, going for your skytower radar app as we do anticipate some showers and thunderstorms to form before marching inland. That big mess of low pressure is not gone, it just shifted out of the area. Its to the west now but notice, its already beginning to throw out some rain in southern louisiana. Its still raining in tallahassee because of this low. With it kind of pinwheeling around pensacola, mississippi, over to new orleans, all of these areas are going to be extremely wet with the potential of flooding. We allowed High Pressure to build in and get us back to a more normal pattern. Still moisture, still rain in the forecast. Its not going to be early this morning. Late morning, early afternoon along the coast and then inland throughout the day. Warm and steamy tonight. Tomorrow well bring it back down to 50 for the rain chance in the afternoon. Its actually more normal, scattered afternoon and evening degrees and yes, we might even drop it to 40 or 30 the upcoming weekend. You do that and then you have another whole not problem but then the issue is 92 degrees for high temperatures which i think well have saturday, sunday and monday. Russell the rock has apparently been running his mouth a little too much and some of his fast eight costars are upset. Jennifer its all over instagram tirade he went on earlier this week. Monday he took to social media website to unload. He said, quote, my female costars are always amazing and i love them. My male costars, houfrp, are a different story. Some conduct themselves as standup men and True Professionals while others dont. And if he looks like hes not acting in some scenes and hes really mad, well, he was. Since he never named names, now know who hes referring to. Russell tim tebow plans to hold a workout later this month for major league baseball. Hes been training in arizona and los angeles trying to improve his hitting and fielding skills. Tim was an all state baseball player his junior year in jacksonville, near jacksonville. He had a. 494 is that good . Dave yeah. Yeah. Russell i know nothing about this. That was 11 years ago, though. Football game his thing right after that. Jennifer now hes looking for another thing.
