Ben the lead story is breaking, Public Officials making plans to test thousands of students, details come and get. We 15 i am juliet huddy. Ben i am been simoneau. Thank you for being with us. Lets check the forecast. Juliet it doesnt say i am as you sent out in your email to my colleagues and my boss. Ben you send me an email referring to you as that. Ben he just sends emails not knowing he called me that. Meteorologist i wouldnt juliet you didnt see the word he might have noticed. Meteorologist i will try but you are on the hook. 49 is your current temperature at central park. A little bit cooler but pretty mild, 49 central park. Newark, 45 in montauk. Winds on the light and variable all over the place in the tristate. We had a lot of low clouds and drizzle, light rain was pulling away. Now the rain is done. Even the drizzle is done. Cloudiness in the area, we will see more sunshine and warmer temperatures. Not too worried about what is coming through right now. Tomorrow there will be interesting things, this warm front will come through bringing a small chance of showers and a cold front follows with a chance of showers and storms. Today you will see a partly cloudy sky, High Temperature 62. Chances pickup later in the day. High temperature 64 on st. Patricks day. A little cooler the next day, high of 53, showers in the area and then it is all done, dryer cooler weather for the upcoming weekend as spring changes over sunday morning. Lets see what we have with in es. Sapna all green on our maps, same for new jersey and essex county. Lets look at the long island expressway by the cross island parkway westbound from nassau county. The vanwyk through the q gardens interchange no problems in either direction. Gwb moving fine as well as the trains. Juliet thank you very much. The republican race will go down kasich came up big and Hillary Clinton could not be stopped although one state is too close to call. Robert moses joins us with a recap of primary action. Ernie this was a do or die night, john kasich stayed alive, marco rubio did not. For Hillary Clinton and donald trump this was another chance to take a victory lap. Donald trump continued his quest for the nomination with wins in florida, illinois and north missouri. Trump seemed puzzled that front runner. Can you explain it to me . I cant. My numbers went up. Victory in florida, forcing him to drop out. It is clear that while we are will not be on the winning side. John kasich was on the winning side at least in his home state of ohio beating trump comfortably and took all of the states delegates. His win is significant for two reasons. It is allows him to justify staying in the race and makes it difficult for trump to secure the delegates needed for the nomination before the convention. I thank the people of ohio. I love you. Ted cruz said despite john kasichs when only twee to people, ted cruz and donald trump, have a shot at the nomination. America has a clear choice going forward. Hillary clinton cemented her front runner status beating Bernie Sanders in florida, illinois, North Carolina and ohio. Clinton leads sanders narrowly in missouri. Has turned her attention to donald trump. A candidate for president called for rounding up 12 million immigrants, banning all muslims from entering the united states, that doesnt make him strong, it makes him wrong. It was a disappointing night for sanders who could not replicate his miraculous win last week in michigan but he sounded upbeat. We are doing something very radical in american politics. We are telling the truth. Missouri is too close to call for democrats and republicans. Clinton and trump are leading in their respective races but it is too close to call. If there is any winner declared, we will let you know. Ben more politics, Chris Christie responding to criticism that he is spending too much time out of state and on the juliet do you like his response . He was still on the campaign trail in florida for donald trump and did not attend the funeral of a new jersey state trooper hit and killed by a car last week. This was the third Police Funeral in a row that Chris Christie missed. Last week before i was invited to come on monday and campaign with donald trump, the Lieutenant Governor and i decided she was going to attend the funeral monday. Even if i decided to remain in the state i would not have attended the funeral, the Lieutenant Governor would have. Juliet this is one of many examples of Chris Christie not being governor, being mia. The head of the paternal association said this decision is predicated on selfish political opportunism. Jersey city mayor started an online petition calling for Chris Christie to resign. Ben officials in newark will reveal their plan for testing 17,000 children for lead juliet high levels of lead were found in school buildings. Teresa prealways live with that story. Saying this but it seems by lead in the water problem in newark is worse than originally they will begin to test 2,000 kids age numb one to 6. This has a lot of parents very concerned. In newark, information is a slow drip. Resident are wondering if their children are safe to drink the water in the city. Their concerns compounded by this message from the mayor who attempted to assuage fears in his state of the city address. Student health is in jeopardy. There is nothing wrong with our water but there is something rechange that infrastructure at the center of massive lead testing to occur in the School Districts water supply. The Health Department and state department of Environmental Protection will test 17,000 students starting with 2,000 children ages numb one through 6. They will start with the youngest because they are the most vulnerable. Studies have shown lead can seriously affect the developing brain. Unusually high levels of lead were found in half of the districts schools. Of normal lead levels are 15 b, some schools registered at 558 ppb. Kids have been exposed to lead. The Teachers Union released these photos yesterday showing expired lead filters and at least we 10 schools. Currently all sinks and drinking fountains have been shut off. Water until the problem is remedied. So much water that has been donated was donated by cocacola and shop right and a lot of food banks but also a lot of it has come from new yorkers who are concerned about the future of these children. Ben thanks very much. And Elementary School on long island is sitting across from a toxic waste site for decades. School officials and parents are just finding out about that. The department of environmental the site in jericho. A Costume Company does not use the cancercausing chemicals left over from a prior business at that location. The state tec says only the ground water is contaminated, not the public drinking water. Parents are not happy they were not notified sooner. We dont want our children on that field unless you can them and they are safe. Ben the in contamination is limited to the industrial site. The school and neighborhood are more than likely not at risk. It is not definitive. School officials are not satisfied. They plan to do their own testing. Much more still to come. We will go live to virginia as commuters figure out how to get to work in dc. Imagine no subway. Juliet the entire metro system is shut down and negative be back up until tomorrow morning.

Four days until that, the official flip over to spring and hopefully we will get springlike weather but it will be a little cooler than we have now.

Clear skies to the south encouraging. We will see more sunshine as we get into the day but eventually the warm front gets closer as does the cold front and that will bring shower chances. The warm front tries to drag through here and that could bring a few scattered showers this evening and the actual cold front forcing its way through thursday. A possibility of showers and storms, almost a 1to punch but we just have to watch for stronger storms to get going. It is not incredibly threatening but there is a threat out there mainly thursday. Today you will see not much happening, mainly clear in the temperature 62, shower chances picking up this evening. A lot of the rain is to the northwest. Tomorrow we make it to 64.

It will remain closed until 5 am thursday but they have Bus Service Available to riders so the gaetz just opened here but riders will be greeted with a sign that says closed. No doubt this emergency shutdown will be felt across the area. More clouds onto the road and more people piling onto buses, 400,000 people take metro bus every day. A lot of us anticipating some overloaded buses, many of them driving to work. This is causing a lot of reaction from local leaders. Reporter i am surprised to hear about the shutdown, especially they when thousands of people are commuting from work. Safety is paramount. We need to get to the bottom of this. Reporter we are talking 91 stations, six lines shut down until 5 am thursday to inspect those cable lines. If they find a problem, the specific station might be closed even longer causing further disruption. It is one of those days we have to pull together and get through this together. Juliet hopefully it doesnt last much longer. Thanks very much. You are from northern virginia, thanks. I used to take that metro all the time going from there to crane regulations put into place after last months deadly crane collapse. The agency said any crawler crane required by its manufacturer shutdown, 20 mph, will be barred from city streets. A licensed engineer must be present during any operation rated for wind speeds under 38 mph and all types of cranes shut down when the wind exceeds 30 mph or forecast to do so.

The student confessed, issued a public apology for his actions, but it was not enough to spare him from the lengthy punishment. It was only an hour trial. North Korea Tourism is legal.

Trump won convincingly in florida in marco rubios home state which forced rubio to suspend his campaign. Trump won big victories in North Carolina and illinois. John kasich won his home state of ohio which justifies his john kasichs win makes it difficult for trump to secure the delegates needed before the convention for the nomination.

Reporter we mentioned missouri, too close to call. Clinton has a narrow lead over Bernie Sanders. One thing i would like you to read is a great analysis in the times. The headline says trump and clinton winning voters, not hearts. That is interesting. It is a great discontent with each of the front runners. So many People Holding their noses as they cast these votes. The votes are not a signal that these voters like the candidates. They are just choosing the lesser of two evils.

This all came to light after routine testing in schools and half of the district schools were found to have unusually high levels of lead. The mayor discussing the issue in his state of the city address. Our studentss health is in jeopardy, there is nothing wrong with newarks water. There is something wrong with our infrastructure. It is old. Reporter the Teachers Union allegedly show expired led 2012 in ten schools. These are supposed to be changed every six month. That has not been happening for these filters.

Juliet lawyers for peter liang are trying to overturn his manslaughter conviction. He was convicted in the shooting of kai girly. Officers were fed answers to cpr exams, that testimony is shown to be true following a recent investigation that stripped a cpr instructor of her badge.
