it away. they are going to save this year, which is good news. gas prices this year are lower than last year, so many people are driving and they want to drive to their destination. we wanted to find out how much money you'll save this year compared to last. take a look at this map behind me. these are round-trip prices for how much money you'll spend. gas is under $3 a gallon. that means that it will cost about 28 bucks round-trip to get from philadelphia -- here we are -- to new york city. this is just gas prices, keep in mind, not tolls or parking. so, that's a savings of $3 from last year. if you're going to washington, d.c., from philadelphia, you'll pay just about $41 in gas. that's a savings of $5 from last year. and if you're headed west from philadelphia to pittsburgh, you will see the biggest savings this year. it costs $89 round-trip. that's a savings of about $11 from last year. we asked drivers if gas prices will affect their holiday travel plans. >> i think the marginal difference in cost is somewhat minimal, but i think that, certainly, if you look at it in a dollar amount, it certainly goes down. >> yeah, i'm actually surprised. i'm shocked. so yeah, i'm definitely going to take advantage of it while it's low. >> it does make you want to get in the car and just ride, you know. i enjoy the prices. i'm enjoying it and my pockets are, too. >> maybe not this morning with the wet roadways, but that's a break down for here in philadelphia. coming up, i'll have prices in new jersey and delaware. the army veteran who died last week in the chain-reaction pileup in

apartment building collapsed in chicago. fire officials say there was an explosion. all three floors pancaked towards the basement. the victims are in serious condition. investigators are working to find out exactly what caused that explosion. today in buffalo, warming temperatures, several feet of melting snow and the threat of rain are prompting flood warnings there. temperatures are expected to hit the 60s in buffalo today. that means all of that snow, up to 7 feet of it in some places, could lead to flooding problems for people in the area. many people now scrambling to clear off roofs and uncover drains. officials are also keeping a close eye on creeks and streams, as that snow melts and wet weather moves in. the national guard is on standby. and the buffalo bills and new york jets

here this morning. we are going to see improving conditions first thing this morning. rain is still falling in the area, but it is much improved. we can now see the boat houses from the mellon bank building view. and look at the temperatures and wind, and it is related. it is the wind helping to boost our temperatures, now 64 degrees in philadelphia. and rain is falling on the slopes. you can see, it doesn't look great for the snow. the snow is going to remain, even though the temperatures will be warm today. and we're starting off with rain. they'll still be able to make snow this week,

still falling from the lehigh valley through bucks, montgomery and into chester counties. but it's quickly tapering off in philadelphia and delaware. the last few rain drops are falling in cape may. so, we'll see the rain coming to an end. for most of the day, you won't need an umbrella. if you're leaving right now, maybe you'll want to take one with you. but later this week, you'll get to use the umbrella again because we will see rain that will change to snow. now, today we only get rain. see the winds? these strong, gusty winds bringing the warmer air from the south. so, the temperatures will sour after the rain moves out, but then colder weather as we head toward the end of the week, and we'll be watching the development of a coastal storm. this is tuesday we'll be in the clear. but on wednesday, it's going to be turning very rainy. by wednesday morning, we will see some steady rain in the area as that coastal storm system will be warm enough for rain to start with but not end
