Potential mess for your Holiday Weekends. Oh, no. Yes. Tropical storm bearing down on florida we could be in its path. How the system is expected to impact your labor day plans, down the shore. I thought it would be the perfect weekend. Good day everybody, september the first, sue, the traffic . Welcoming the month with rain in our area this morning. Which well get to in a moment. Well start off with this traffic situation. South philadelphia, you can see, from the live pictures there, we are going to take a look at the traffic situation, checking first, with jenny joyce. Steve keeley, the big news right now is that there is movement behind steve. Normally, for the last three hours, weve seen nothing behind steve moving. Lets start with you and then check on the firefighters. Reporter mike as i always say, as soon as you show up things improve in everybodys reach. Thats the kate here. So look, traffic is going to take a long time to get around this. But at least it is moving. So, the police smartly and safely thought we cant wait for this jackknife tractortrailer get cleared. Thats such a tough job. Wedge in the, there smashed, they have fuel tanks, so lets get traffic past this scene, and that tells you they safely cleared the scene, where a ladder 16, one of those long firetrucks with the second Steering Wheel in the back. Again, mike, here we go with the seinfeld references, that member of kraemer that episode was in the back steering that one out of control. They have that second Steering Wheel because these trucks are so long that helps them get around corners, for you folks, playing trivial pursuit. So you have three lanes, four lanes of 95 traffic now, hopefully, with no road rage, calmly without any police help, merging into one lane and i dont hear any horns. Good sign. Everybody thankful to be moving again, safely going slow, letting the guy to the right in and everybody, how about that . You dont she in philadelphia ever. People letting you merge in front of each other, but these people are all in the same boat together. Sitting here on 95, since 3 00 a. M. , when the original crash happened, the original crash being a two vehicle crash, in a driving downpour, where we always have hydroplane crashes, on 95 southbound, with these tall medians on each each side. Water cant go anywhere fast. I was driving at the time on 95, there was huge puddles on both sides of the road. When you have these people that go 70, eight a miles an hour, they go out of control when they hydroplane. And so you have an original crash, Fire Department, down here, get right to the scene. And as they are going to the scene this tractortrailer looks to have rearended ladder 16. Right where the second firefighter with the second Steering Wheel is sitting, that is where the damage was, on ladder 16, and hes out on the truck by himself, four other guys with him, where jenny joyce is at hahnemann, now okay. So, that is the big story that we have, moving on 95 south, but you know there is what we call the residual back up. And it was already back up to girard avenue. So, now we are getting into the heart of rush hour guys. You know despite it being reopened for just one lane, slowly getting by, it will be a tough slow drive on 95 southbound for the next hour at least. At least. Punch up that camera here. But the tractortrailer, underneath what street steve . Report thats the Chestnut Street bridge. There is a series of overpasses here, mike, it starts with the Market Street bridge, where we were looking back by the ben franklin. Then you have this bridge, and then you have another bridge. And thats where the other accident scene was. So this is the Chestnut Street overpass bridge. And it will be a while. You know theyll re shut 95 down to get this thing out of here, yes. It is a big tow truck, maybe thats here to help out. Look at that. It is a big old truck. Making a left turn, yes, esther help get the tractortrailer out. Thank you, steve. As steve mentioned, five Fire Fighters this crash, theyve been taken to Hahnemann University hospital. Thats where jenny joyce is now, hey, jenny . Reporter good morning, guys, so we have an update from captain gilliam with the philadelphia Fire Department. Just minutes ago, he did tell us that all five firefighters brought here to Hahn Hahnemann are in stable condition. Explained to us ladder 16, in the for the richmond area, was dispatched to i95 southbound in the area of Market Street, for a two vehicle crash. They were called to provide a safety buffer to ensure safety along i95 to prevent cars from going in that area of the traffic scene. So they were brought therefore safety. They ended up getting struck by a tractortrailer. They were dispatched to the scene at 3 11. The accident according to captain gilliam, happened at 3 20. They had not even gotten out that far firetruck when they were struck. So, captain gilliam tells us, none of the fire fighers have been admitted here to hahnemann. Theyre just being checked out. It is all precautionary. Theyre in stable condition. But again, he did say, that it is unfortunate that they were called to be an active safety on the scene of this twocar crash, captain gilliam also could not say whether or not whether it was this is after. We do know we had periods of downpours this morning, as steve keeley has been reporting all morning long. So maybe thats what precipitated the first accident. And then the tractortrailer came by, and nailed ladder 16. So, again, we do expect ongoing updates from the philadelphia Fire Department, captain gilliam, went back inside, to check on those firefighters. Mike and alex . Wow. Okay, so lets check in with sue now. So we have the cottman camera. How bad is this stack up on 95 . Well, the thing is, do you have get off. Dont think that youre going to be time get through this coming from the north, say from the northeast or from bucks county. Youre going have to get off at the vine street expressway until they clear out this tractortrailer. These are just the people that have been sitting there since say 3 00 in the morning, when we think this happened. So, thats another look, with our Traffic Camera at the scene of those folks slowly getting by. Now, cottman avenue. This is what it typically looks like at this time. So the back up isnt that far. We understand the back up is as far as girard avenue. On i95, and the folks all having to exit at the vine. If you are coming off the schuylkill onto vine, onto i95, you will not be able to do that, that exit blocked this morning, so take a look at the map here to show you waist going on, see the red area just north of the vine, thats where the back up is to girard avenue. Area to avoid probably for another hour or so. If they can get the tractortrailer out of there, and clean up the debris, let traffic through. One more accident to tell but on the jersey turnpike northbound approaching the pennsylvania turnpike, the right lane block there, and then we have another one, just north of that, the jersey turnpike, will close to 195, the left lane, is block there. Was rain the reason for all of this . We dont know for sure. But, it has been a while since it has rained, now we have a lot of it out there. We even have a few thunderstorms, popping up here, and there, but to show you where the rain is, yes, it is out to the west of us, some heavier rain starting to move closer to Chester County, and Montgomery County so it will be coming here into the city, as women. Bus stop buddy has the rain gear on. Temperatures in the 60s, 70s, here in the city, and it is 74 degrees, and our sunrise time 6 29. Were in the going to see sunrise to start the day today. Were going to get to a high of 84 degrees. So our heatwave is over guys. Six of day heatwave is no more. See you later, heatwave. Steves got something going on on 95. Reporter mike, 95 is not reopened. All they did was get the traffic out of here. Now look at 9a you see the police up there . They were forcing everybody off at vine st. And it looks like they still are. So, all of the traffic that we showed getting through here, than was the smart move. Not only for the benefit of these people stuck here all night, but you cant have people jamming this area, where they still got a lot of work to do. So 95 not reopened. It was only reopened briefly for the people that were stuck between the vine st. Closure and the accident scene. So here you see state trooper coming here. We will spin around. Now you have, you know, the work to get this shutdown, you know, reopened completely, because as we showed you that tow truck, on the other side of the tractortrailer now. So theyll try to reopen it, well give you the minute by minute updates out here. There you go, for example, dont take 95 still. It is still shut down. Thats important to note. These are minute by minute updates. Weve never said it was open, but you might have been confused if you saw all of these cars moving through on i95. So it is not open. Those were the relieved people who have been there since 3 00 this morning. Yes, still shut down. 6 10. Not backing down too much. Donald trump Standing Firm on his plans to stop illegal immigration, but there is a dispute over who will pay for the wall. Plus, fight to go save illegal tradition. Hear from the group thats not want to see median parking banned for good in south philadelphia. They want to keep the parking. All right. There is no movement from the vine southbound on 95. Steve is there with the updates, minute to minute. 6 12. One local community is doing all they can to keep the tradition of allowing drivers to park along the median on south broad. We all know about this. During the dnc, it wasnt permitted. And they dont want that to become a permanent change. The group is called taking south philadelphia streets back. It is set up along broad and shunk, trying to get signature from people in the neighborhood, in support of keeping median parking. One organizer said when they heard another group wanted the city to crackdown, they new they had to save the tradition, but not everyone agrees. They want to end Center Median parking. Technically, it is illegal, but the city for over 07 years has threat go on. It is not safe. It blocks vision. There has been few incidents around here, but it is like liability around here because of it. Those cars are back, though, the minute the dnc ended. Thats true. The mayors offers tells us before any changes are made, they plan to have discussions with the resident. Well see what happens. Whose going to foot the bill on on the big wall. Donald trump and mexican president , leave the meeting with different conditions who will pay for the wall. What they disagree on next. Did they even discuss it . Thats even the question. That is a question. Look at this. Already it is impacting us. Hey sue, is it hermine . So mean, hermine. So sheik hermine. Shes being mean, and might ruin the weekend down the shore. How dare she . Oh, there will be rip tides, we have an ion that. Doesnt have an eye yet, but if it does well feel better. For senate, Katie Mcginty or pat toomey . Mcginty supports clean energy jobs. Pat toomey voted to protect tax breaks for Oil Companies. Mcginty is prochoice. Toomey wants to overturn roe v. Wade and criminalize abortion. Mcginty will consistently stand up to the gun lobby. Toomeys against an assault weapons ban and gets an a rating from the nra. This year, pennsylvanians have a clear choice. Senate majority pac is responsible for the content of this advertising. Coming up on 6 17, alex hole. I checking back in with this i95 south shutdown. Looks can be did he receiving, mike, because although we are seeing some cars move through, and there is an officer directing them, were told i95 still shut down at the vine street expressway. What happened, some of these people squeeze through the barricades there. And now theyre not happy with them. But theyre left to get by with jackknife tractortrailer at Chestnut Street. Still getting rewarded for, you know. But here is the thing. See that tractortrailer, still there. So they still have to get it moved probably why it is still shut down, nor work to do to clear it out. Sure. Big tow truck you cant see, will yank that out of there. That will take another hour or so. So now the question is mike if you were sitting in this traffic, and you saw that some car, i mean, not supposed to do it, they went out, think still have to go through, would you go forward . Would you follow the rules and just sit and wait . I would have done what they did. And then i would have pulled off at a wawa and peed. Because i hadnt peed in three hours. Or you would say oh, i just have a quarter tank of gas, lets just make it to the gas station. Here is another look at the scene from the Traffic Camera. And it looks like maybe that might be the last of the cars that theyre letting through. Basically, if you are coming from northeast philadelphia, we take a look at the cottman avenue camera now, because, the back up isnt that far, but we have extra volume. So, everybody coming from this area, say, bucks county, northeast philadelphia, you have to get off i95 at the vine street expressway. So yes, a lot more traffic there. Thats pretty usual for this time of day. Also, if you are heading from the schuylkill, westbound, i should say, eastbound on the vine, you will not be able to get on southbound 95, because that exit from the vine is closed. So until they open it up, you want to avoid that area at all costs. Two accidents to tell you about on the jersey turnpike, northbound approaching the pa turnpike, near mansfield, the right lane block there. And then another one on the jersey turnpike little further north, northbound there is one approaching 195, and the left lane is block, there. We did have heavy downpours, i ran into one on my way in. I went through the area northbound around 2 30 in the morning, raining pretty hard. We think this accident happened about threeish. Heres some hard rain moving into the area. We zoom in to few neighborhoods, show you where the rain is, gloucester, depford, Washington Township in new jersey, in pennsylvania, some heavy rain moving into lancaster county, now some steadier rain in Chester County down in delaware, very heavy rain, down here, along the delaware bay, moving toward bridgeton, new jersey from delaware, then another area in kent county jersey shore getting some more rain, already had some, and more is coming back. Basically we expect this to last through the next couple of hours on and off. A break in the middle of the day, a lot of cloud cover more storms popping up. Anything we expect over the Holiday Weekends, saturday night into sunday, with the possible rain and wind from that storm. But this is a very changeable forecast, it is already changed the a lot from 24 hours ago when we thought it would have no impact on our weather. So we can promise you cooler temperatures over the weekend. Stay tuned for more on the impact of that storm. But right now, guys, it looks like sunday will be the day if we get any rain from that storm, and hopefully clearing out by monday labor day. You mean the evening ill be at made in america .

Here is a rare picture, could you play a game of waffle ball right down here past the ben franklin bridge. Still shut down at the vine street expressway, and state troopers tell me, that the backup now goes as we predicted earlier all the way to allegheny. So, well let you know, and the reason is if you are just watching us, greg will spin around 180 degrees jackknife tractortrailer, involved with a firetruck, in the driving rain three hours ago. Well update you almost every minute on the show. Move movement here starting with the vine street expressway, on i95. What are you going to do this Holiday Weekend . You may have to change your plans. Look at that big mess. I know it is down in florida but it is headed our way. Man the rip currents will be rough down the jersey shore. Is it going to rain . Were tracking, good day, it is september the one, 2016. Something that happened 3 00 this morning, i95 shutdown, if you are headed southbound on 95, headed into center city, old city philadelphia, theyre going to have tough time. Got to get off the vine street expressway. Of course steve on the way. Jenny over at the hospital. Because firefighters were involved in this accident. Lets start with steve. Reporter good thing about the overpasses it is a long high wall to the left. And, that, because of that, we dont have the rubber neck that we would definitely have, with philadelphians being knows i, and so look at 95 northbound running smooth. To the left left 95 southbound, look at the ben franklin bridge, that tells you where we r nothing happening, southbound, where we, are because it is all being forced off at the vine street expressway because after shutdown weve been at since 3 00 this morning, and backups all the way to allegheny, and i said, if you even, like me, take the betsy ross bridge in, dont do that. The smart people, look at these people, getting down here at Market Street. And if you take that Market Street ramp, thats the secret detour here. You can go by here, because thats a separate lane, and again, you have separate overpass with the wall on the other side of all of the damage here. So, greg, showing you the tractortrailer, now believe the tractortrailer, you see headlights facing us, you see flashing police lights. Look, there we go, some breaking news, tow truck is now pulling the smashed tractortrailer, jackknife into a straight position, to get it out of here. How about that for timing as we turn around and show that you shot . So thats the best news of the morning so far. Other than hearing the fire fight remembers okay at the hospital. I took pictures of ladder 16, respond to previous crash, all driving in at that time. And im telling you firsthand on 95, in a torrential downpour, when i got word from the station, i got off 95 that there was a bad accident. Then as soon as we got here the back up already gone past the ben franklin bridge. So there is jackknife tractortrailer just part of couple accident, two cars that crash, thats why the Fire Department responded to save those folks. You see the damage on the second Steering Wheel part of that long ladder 16, a second Steering Wheel, called a tiller, and he, one of the five firefighters, that were on that truck, at the time, so we got little good news here. Theyve got that thing straightened out. Apparently no fuel spill, or we would be seeing a lot of the sand we see in the street. Things were not rap tiped. We walk out here, give you another look around, give you idea of the clean upgoing on, and maybe good news as the sun is coming up and the rain has cleared up. Because the rain is probably the bad culprit in all of this causing probably the initial crash, maybe one of the reasons visibility so bad for this tractortrailer driver here, but good news here guys. This tractortrailer shouldnt be here much longer you would think if theyve got it straightened out now. Thats good, good, good. Main concern now is what happened to the firefighters on that truck that was slammed into . We know five firefighters injured, and at the hospital. Jenny joyce has an update for us. Reporter good morning, alex and mike. Good news tore steve. Good news here reporting from hahnemann hospital. To tell you that all five firefighters brought here are in stable condition. Actually the captain gilliam with the Fire Department tells us that none of these firefighters has even been admitted to the hospital. They were just brought here as a precaution. So the firefighters were on ladder 16 coming to the area of i95 southbound around Market Street. This yes being brought to the area to serve as a safety buffer, because there was a previous twocar crash, in that area. So, this yes going to be a buffer making sure that the i95 traffic would not get in the way of the accident scene, would not create an additional crash. And in the process, thats exactly what happened when that tractortrailer came top down and hit the back up ladder 16 here is captain gilliam. Unfortunately what happened, you know, they were there being the Safety Company just for this reason, so a lot of that company were taking care of the accident scene. This apparatus was provide ago buffer between them and traffic. And, unfortunately, they were struck by a tractortrailer. Reporter so good news that all five Fire Fighters stable condition here at hahnemann hospital. We know that captain gilliam went back inside, checking on the firefighters. We hopefully will get an update from him later this morning. And in the meantime, the accident remains under investigation. Mike and alex . All right, thank goodness theyre all going to be okay. Well, lets look around at the cameras then, sue, who are you going to start with . Start with a look at the accident on i95, little hazy out there, because of all of the moisture still in the air. But you can see, the headlights that were looking at are facing southbound. So thats one view, now we go to the i95 cottman, or the vine street expressway, which is moving pretty darn slowly, as weve been telling you, everyone is being forced to get off at the vine, who is coming i95 southbound, from, say, northeast philadelphia, and bucks county. So thats already starting to stack up there. It is a good idea if you want to slip on like well, if you can get to Market Street, you can get on 95 south, at market. And then go down that ramp and you get to shootout 95 south. Right past the scene. After the accident. Okay. Get to market. Behind us, nobodys using market. Come on, people. Use us. Come by us. Okay, thats whats going on with. That will lets talk about the jersey turnpike, because we had couple of situations there, as well. An accident, on the jersey turnpike, northbound, approaching the pennsylvania turnpike, we still have the right lane block there. Thats around mansfield. And then, another accident, on the turnpike northbound, this one approaching 195, and the left lane is block there. So the bottom line is be careful, allow a lot of extra time, dont be rushing, because there is more rain coming. The rain had stopped for now, in philadelphia, but we can see that there is plenty more on the way. Bus stop buddy has the reason gear already to go. Temperatures in the 60s, 70s, we have 70 in pottstown, 63 mount pocono, 74 in the city. 72 degrees in dover. It is still casino every muggy now. Only going to get to a high of 84 degrees, our heatwave is over, scattered showers and thunderstorms this morning, more popping up later on with a break in the mid of the day with just some clouds, maybe little bit of sun. Tonight, down to 66 degrees. Couple every stray showers left over, maybe a thunderstorm. Well give you you the latest coming up. 6 36. To bucks county, with you person hurt in a Early Morning fair fire, warminster, fire started inside row home charlton place, person inside was rescued, and taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation. And police are investigating a deadly shooting as we had another one overnight. Right out of a Community Center in philadelphias mantua neighborhood, police tell us, a 29 year old man was shot three times, last night, in front of his young son. And other within cents. He later died at the hospital. Cops say theyve video that shows a whole thing. At this point, no arrests, but should come very soon. A young girl sharing her story after trip to this store, the corner store, ends with her, she and a friend caught in the middle of a shootout. There she is. Now, she will start her school year with bullets lodged in her leg. She was walking out of corner store with her best friend tuesday evening when a nearby argument turned violent. Two men were injured in the birrage of gunfire from Assault Rifle and a semiautomatic hand gun. So she was hit in the thigh and her friend got a face full of glass from a shattered door. Silly question but how much did that hurt . Like on a scale of one to ten, it was lick a ten. It like ached. We were walking out, they started shooting. The glass break on the front door . You got hit with the glass . That must have hurt. It was glass all in my face. There was blood everywhere, there was glass on the floor, the juice spilled. Then we slipped. They would be the ninth and tenth kids hit by fun fire in about 12 weeks, ridiculous, tough summer . So authorities see these children talk about whats going on and whats napping their community. Change their lives. All right, in camden. 6 39. In Camden Police were talking about another shooting. Police focused owned few g the person responsible for shooting eight year old gary gabby carter. Hoping to lead to information rut nag arrest. It rewarded 76,000 as being offered and gabby shot in the head last week, after getting caught in the crossfire of a shootout. Police say the community can be instrumental in helping to find this shooter. Look, there is a sociopath that brazen enough to pull out a gun and fire with children around, and hes got our undivided attention, we have lazer like focus on this individual, and we will bring him and his confederates to justice. Police also say grief counselling is being offered to cope with little gabbys death. Her funeral the day after tomorrow matter of fact. 6 39. Coming up on 6 40. Philadelphia, and the nfl, will make official today. I think at noon. The 2017 draft will be here in our city, too bad were not drafting anybody. I know, will that be kind of awkward . Oh, well here in philly, but philly sit down, dont have a choice. So the venue for the draft will be on the ben franklin parkway. Going to look cool. Just like in chicago it will be outside in tent, nationally televised event attract 200,000 attend december, some say could have 81 million Economic Impact on the city. The announcement will happen today at noon at city hall. So maybe it will kind of be like made in america. The set up there on the parkway, and they have whole bun of of tents set up. Sure. Weird though, 200,000 people come in for what about 32 minutes of information. Well, no, they do several days, dont they . Remember the nba draft we learned when we went, one night, all one night. One night only. Nfl. Oh, weve got movement, more movement on 95, southbound, here in the penns landing area. The big tow truck has come, in and theyre moving the tractortrailer. Is it happening . Oh, look it is moving. They towed the tractortrailer out of here, now left the scene. You can see it now, getting towed off 95. And the state troopers now getting in position, theyre going to go by there, there was a guy sweeping up any debris, but theyre going to make sure everybodys off the road before they reopen it. But weve got a driving rain suddenly again. Of course it cant be back to perfection. But that is the best news of the day, people just waking up, 59 has been shutdown since just after 3 00 a. M. Chestnut street bridge, look at the signs, boulevard, 95 south street to the airport, and nobodys been going. So everybodys been getting forced off at the vine street expressway, and my guess is the back up probably approaching the betsy ross bridge entrance ramp right now. But it should be alleviated sometime soon. Now that all of the vehicles involved in these multi crashes are out of here. So by 7 00 we may have some flow here on 95 south. That would be what the first time in four hours . Yes, first time in four hours. Okay, how about this story . A mother brought to tears by a photograph. The heartwarming move by a Florida State football player, to boost the spirit of a young boy at school. It is a cool story behind this one. And the philadelphia zoo debuts its newest addition, oh, how cute. You will be able to pick out its name. Look at the little baby. Hello baby. This accident happened about 3c in the morning, pens area landing area. A lot of the vehicles involved have now been cleared out. But the roadway is still not open yet. We hope that will happen soon. Traffic is still being redirected, off of i59 southbound, at the vine st. Expressway. So, youre coming from the north, do you have get off at the vine. And you can see, that things are starting to get stack up there, on the westbound vine street expressway for everybody coming off of i95 there. So that is still the situation, under minute it changes we will let you know. But in the meantime, we have this look at the map, big back up on the vine, couple of accident also on the new jersey turnpike, one approaching the pennsylvania turnpike. So we have all of that going on, things not too slowly though on the new jersey turnpike, we will tell but slow going with our weather, not only today, but potentially over the Holiday Weekend, in 15 seconds. So this is it. Whether we talk about on and off rain, here in philadelphia, it is on. And we will zoom in and show you just here, there is the little area of yellow, downpour right outside of our building here. And right at the scene of the accident, that we were talking about, there it is, i95 right there on your map. You can see the heavy rain here. So that cell is one area of heavy rain. We have more out in lancaster county, and berks county, some heavy rain down around pittsgrove, new jersey and bridgeton. At the jersey shore, some of that heavy rain is starting to clear out for now. But there is more coming as we look at the future cast, more heavy rain over the next couple of hours and then a bit of a break at midday. We still can see some showers around. Looks like pretty socked in with clouds. If you get a peak every sunday, probably wont last long. More pop up showers and thunderstorms the last of this cold front really doesnt get out of here until after 10 00, 11 00 tonight. Then we have a decent forecast, at least for friday, but we have to start factoring in Tropical Storm hermine.
