Good morning, britt. Lets take a look at i25. Its looking good. Theres cdot wrapping up construction. No major accidents or stalls to report in the area. Of the metro live picture, slow downs north bound i25 at highway 36. Theres also an accident at walnut and 40th just off the highway there. But allen and ashton are in colorados Weather Center tracking hurricane matthew. Good morning. Good morning to you, joe. We are definitely keeping an eye on matthew and going to show you the latest track and where they are right now. We want to talk about the temperatures across colorado. Cold morning so far. For denver, First Official freeze of the season. Teens and 20s in the colorado high country. 14 right now in ledville. Meanwhile, 30s around denver and fort collins. Watching fog up to the north.

After 65 this afternoon, well top out at 72 tomorrow. 73 coming up on sunday and down to 67 next tuesday with maybe a chance for some showers. Here in colorados Weather Center and allen, were talking about matthew. Im stunned as i watch this. I think folks need to understand how its working. This is actually the fartherrest spot west on the east coast. Jacksonville. I did a few years and worked in denver in the 90s. Its interesting this oddly that the gulf stream runs out here and thats the warmer water, right. Correct. As you get closer to the coast, the water actually gets cooler there which is unusual. What i want to do here is take this full screen and show you the last 24 hours of matthew. Well flip to the other computer if we could. This was 5 00 a. M. Yesterday and you can see the center of the storm as it made its way up off the coast of miami and no n cape canaveral. Theyve reported wind gusts of 100 Miles Per Hour in cape canaveral. The strongest part of the hurricane is on the right front side of the hurricane. Thats offshore. And if matthew continues to move parallel to the coast, that could mean that florida could dodge the worst of this. Theres still going to be damage and flooding and storm serge here but as we take a to daytona beach, the eye of the storm and stronger wind should stay off the coast. If this robles any farther to the west, that could be a problem. It could make land fall and cat two storm this weekend in south carolina. Look at the latest track. It goes out into the atlantic and then it swings back towards south florida. This will be tuesday of next week. Still a little too far again and hit the southern tip of florida as a direct hit that could create more problems. Exactly. Explain to people. I think a lot of people dont understand the concept of storm certain. As i understand it, a hurricane sits like a bowel in the water. Push the bowl down and what do you get . And the water starts coming lines. The wind gets head lines and we only talk about the wind. We use to win the hurricane strength. With all the wind, it causes that serge of water and the water comes up on to the coast and thats, thats what kills people and does the most damage. Its the storm serge because its a huge wave of water that can sometimes go miles inland. Yeah, right. You have a lot of houses built 1011 feet above cases of 140mile an hour winds. Thanks for explaining. Lets go to the news room. In colorado, we stand together, but congressman coffman stands with donald trump and will support trump for president. Theyve spread falsehoods about president obama. Trump oh, no. Coffman i dont know whether barack obama was born in the United States or not. Its the right time maybe to find a plane ticket for the christmas holidays. Heres Kenneth Craig with the money watch. Mortgage rates keeping their level since july.

Certainly liked what he saw he threw the ball fine today. You can tell the rotation and stuff is something you got to get use to. Kind of like working through a hip corner is the way its described. You got to work through the soreness and get it going again. Broncos back home hosting when i was one year old, i was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer on my spinal chord. But i spent my whole life fighting back. So you can imagine what i thought when i saw donald trump say. I dont know what i said, ah, i dont remember that reporter he is talking about suffers from a chronic condition that impairs movement of his arms. I dont want a president who makes fun of me. I want a president who inspires me, and thats not donald trump. Good morning everyone and thanks for joining us. We have breaking news to bring you out of denver.
