plays hard. out o the door this morning grab your umbrella we have light rain showers in bridgeport although it is dry across portion of new jersey and into new york city. we have another round of rain that's headed in our direction. another thing that may slow you down on the roads is patchy fog that we're finding. visibility reduced across the area so you want to be aware of that as well. right now temperatures are actually pretty nice, i mean, this is the first week of this early hour in the 50s and in the 40s. 47 in central park. 42 poughkeepsie. bridgeport at 42. we're in the 40s across long island and even 52 nice degree it is down the shore in belmar. here's that first batch of rain over the last couple of l hours u now pushing out to the east. a lot of clouds in place stay with us throughout the day and then watching this area of rain right here that that will be moving into the region by middle of the day. you want your umbrella handy. know ising through minnesota, wisconsin, iowa we won't get that here. because temperatures are too mild. readings above average for this time of year and then see a cooldown into tomorrow and for the next couple of days. keep your umbrella handy today. temperatures into the middle 50s above average for this time of the year. 51 in the city but factor in a breeze chilly tomorrow even though more in the way of sunshine. sunny into the wopped and temperatures will hover around 50 degrees for next several days. let's see the roads this morning. ines is here with an update. >> we have problems with wet roadways, as you mentioned visibility with the fog that's also an issue right now let's start off with westchester problem on new england u throughway northbound two accidents north avenue a jackknifed tractor trailer minivan. all of this causing delays on northbound side. new jersey 22 eastbound just cleared away a stall. all delays cleared. 280 doing fine. cameras take a look at your commute this morning on l.i.e. slow down westbound. just slow ride. eastbound side you're fine. george washington bridge let's tack a look at that. you can see visibility poor so a 35 miles per hour speed restriction at the gwb. 25 miles per hour at the outer bridge. but heading towards the city right now, doing fine upper, lower level minor delays same for lincoln and holland. maintenance in n and r train southbound running on q line everything else on or close to schedule. ben and juliet. juliet: thank you. support for isis apparently is growing here in the u.s., and new york state leads the way for number of arrests of those supporters. >> according to a study by george washington university u.s. authorities made 71 isis related arrests. 56 of them this year of those 13 happened here in new york. that is more than any other state followed by minnesota with 11 interesting there. the study also found most of the isis sympathizers are younger with average age being just 26. 86% of those arrested are male. juliet: united states is sending more special operation forces to help kurdish forces but iraq prime minister says they're not needed. u.s. defense secretary ash carter made announcement yesterday. fox news is reporting that 200 troops will be sent to iraq in kill senior leaders of that terror network. his country needs training, weapon, advices from the international community not foreign forces fighting on iraqi soil. >> the guilty verdict from the corruption trial of former state asystemmably speaker sheldon silver triggering now calls to clean up average. >> that includes push to limit outside income that lawmakers earn. but this sounds leak a situation that could be easily more said than done. governor himself doesn't think had is likely. >> lawmakers don't have appetite to do this. the reason why outside income comes into play is quite simple actually lawmakers are part-time not full-time so they supplement state incomes with other sources but there in lies the blurred line between personal and official business. getting rid of that income is a been unwilling to take. >> if you break the law, you will get caught, and you will get convicted, so dent even think about it. >> andrew cuomo offered first spoken remarks since jury found sheldon silver guilty on all seven counts he faced. governor announced that a special election to fill silver seat will be held on prl 19th same day as new york presidential primary with silver now a convicted felon turns to cleaning up albany and governor will not call a special session since the legislature will be back in session soon enough. the governor defended the laws already on the books. >> we have unprecedented disclosure and transparency in albany. we now have a first ever law where legislators have to disclose their outside income. >> outside income that silver and other legislators have necessary if new york state had a full-time legislature but that amendment. >> i'm intrigued by the full-time legislature because that would end the conflict of interest where legislators always get into trouble. always the same thing. it's in their outside income and are they getting paid as a legislator or o are they getting paid as an attorney? >> silver may not be the last shoe to drop. skelos and son adam are facing corruption charges their trial is in the third week of testimony. >> returning to civil vertical for one moment even though he was convicted, he's still collecting his state pension at tarp expense. now, it is likely that u.s. to collect that as restitution in this case. back to you. >> there should be a rule if you're convicted you lose your pension. >> that too is stalled in the legislature. >> of course. one of the most absurd thing. no payment from the state, bottom line. i don't care what you paid into the system. you're a convicted criminal. >> that's the price of your crime. >> exactly. >> robert moses sorry of my outrage there. >> never seeses to amaze me especially when it comes to politics. and never ceases to amaze me. >> now reporting that tips they received go to charity even though there's no evidence that that is the case. this is perhaps there's more bad behavior in times square. the developments on this busy holiday season. reporter: hearings the question to both of you. good morning ben and juliet. have you ever been proamped by a character. do you feel the need to tip them if they come up to you? juliet: no, but i stay out of the area but i push past them. sorry. reporter: that's because we know our rights and how to get around the city. it's not that way for tourist who is think this is what i'm supposed to be doing. the latest happened -- it happened behind me in duffy square a man named oscar rodriguez by the counter dressed like spied or man act aing more like a villain than superhero he was supposed to be mouthing off to police officers. in an area where characters tried to contain him and they ended up arresting him. and then there's this video back in july, 2014 of junior bishop dressed as another spider-man fighting with cops in this video. he was arrested because of it. that case later dropped now he's suing the city. guess what, he was actually arrested again on sunday dressed as the incredible hulk for allegedly verbally assaulting a female police officer. all of this happened because a tourist didn't want to give him the tip that he thought was worthy of the photo that he had taken. characters behaving badly a big problem here in times square we've been talking about this nonstop for certainly the last year as it seems more and more of the incidents are occurring. thrrve efforts to attempt to control these characters, but so far none have really worked. there's one proposal that will is -- put forth by the times square at this time to rezone times square if you do that maybe des ig enated where these characters are not allowed to go and if they do they face hefty fines 100 bucks at a pop. maybe that's the way to keep them in their respective areas and behaving. either way whatever they decide to do here it is important that if you are a tourist coming to times square during holiday season if you take a picture with a character you are not required to tip them. that is on your whether you want to give them nothing, a dollar, or $20. that's just simply your decision. make sure that you know that. that is latest from times square. ben and juliet back to both of you. ben: teresa priolo for us the cross roads of the world. thank you very much. juliet: party helicopter there is. ben:one month tlg the big party in the east. juliet: everybody is watching the weather especially those heading to rockefeller center. through the tristate area and taking a bit
