Janet is talking to people sweating it out all day. That is right sharrie, we are sweating it out too, every few minutes you hear a collective sigh of relief here because the fountain and the wind is blowing the refreshing mist of water our way and it really does feel great. There is not just one way to beat the heat but one thing everyone can agree on today. Cant see the sweat is in my eyes. Its ungodly hot. And hot and sticky. Last week everybody was saying it was hot but today the humidity is unbearable. The humidity out here just drink a lot of water. Temperatures in the 90s but can feel like 100 degrees. Yesterday was hot and today hot. Chris has been handing out tickets for years and walks miles a day and hot days make for hot drivers. They dont want a ticket on a cold day or a hot day and the heat makes it worse. What do you think about the hot weather . Just go to the pool and come here and just do some cool stuff.

Well, it looks like the septa struggles that we were dealing with will last a little longer than we thought. Teeny but critical cracks took trains off the track and the full fleet will not be back to work on labor day like they hoped. Today septa invited the media over to the maintenance fas its for a show and tell. Those minuscule hard to see hair line cracks causing major issues. The critical safety concern has grounded its newest and more critical trains. Now they know what happened and where it happened but not how and why. That needs further Engineering Work and they say they are not taking any chances. We will not have the fleet back at labor day. We are shooting for labor day to have cars back in service but we want to make sure they are safe. I mean we have to have the confidence of the public that we are doing the right things and showing people the amount of work we are would going through. And the thought is to have the cars back in service by labor day but that is about it. They say that will help a little but there is a lot of work to be done. They are looking for a fix but safety first and today they showed us the cracks barely visible with the naked eye. Thankfully somebody noticed them thank you. Its a wild day in the race for the white house, abc news learned that donald trump is leaning towards picking indiana governor, mike pence for his running mate but the decision is not made yet. Elizabeth is live in new york. This comes as a new poll shows the candidates are neck and neck. Reporter that is right according to that new poll you talked about this race is too close to call making this vp decision for both campaigns so crucial, and with that in mind we learn which way trump is leaning. Donald trump leaning towards indiana governor, mike pences as his running mate and Speaker Paul Ryan says he is on board. I hope he picks a Good Movement conservative and clearly mike is one of those. There are other good people as well. At three potentially four, but in my own mind im thinking about two. Trump not revealing names, we know that those include Newt Gingrich and chris christie. Gingrich told abc news he would not be surprised if he chose pence and christie says he doesnt know if he is still in the running. And Hillary Clinton also vetting running mates was back on capitol hill and in virginia slamming trump. Next week in cleveland they will nominate someone that thinks latino outreach is tweeting a picture of a taco bowl. This on the heels of a new National Poll showing clinton and trump deadlocked at 40 each. And as for trump again sources tell abc news his vp pick is not a done deal but leaning towards governor pence and the announcement is set for tomorrow. Im elizabeth herr, channel 6 action news.
