westbound while @the flow of traffic was @eastbound and had begun enter @eastbound and had begun @entering -- was up on entering @an elevated portion of the @expressway. @and our deputy was eastbound

were going? @>> too early at this point but @>> reporter: [reporter asking @question] @[inaudible] @>> it is too early at this @point but appears that the @deputy was trying to get out of @the way. @[reporter asking question] @[inaudible] @>> the deputy is deceased. @>> reporter: in tampa we have @reported on so many wrong-way @crashes. @what do we need to do to stop @this? @>> pay attention driving and @just -- i think it is highlight @just -- i think it is @highlighting a much bigger @issue between distracted @driving and dui. @at this time in night, there @are a lot of people who have @been consuming alcohol @beverages out on the road but @we need to pay attention what @we are doing on road and not @spending our time on the cell @phones and talking and texting. @>> reporter: can you tell us @what is happening on the scene? @>> the scene is being processed @as any traffic homicide will be @as any traffic homicide will @be. @measurements of it, determining @speed, and crime

tell that you. @>> reporter: i know it is still @early in the investigation -- @[inaudible] @>> not at this point, it is @too early to determine that. @>> reporter: what a loss this @is for the department. @>> yeah. @you know, these guys -- these @men and women are -- excuse me @-- the men and women are out @there trying to protect @everybody, and these guys are @very concerned about the @drivers at night. @in fact this deputy had hoped @to become a traffic homicide @his career, but a large family @you know sometimes don't get @along, but when something @happens, you are obviously very @close together. @and this -- this is a loss not @only to the hillsborough county @sheriff's office but to all the @law enforcement men and women @who are trying to do their job @and get home alive. @[reporter asking question] @>> he has been here five years, @ five and a half years. @[inaudible] @>> well, we are a large @agency, but, yeah, he comes @from a family of law @enforcement

@next four to five hours. @so we are going to continue to @follow this. @they are not releasing the name @of both drivers at this point. @they are notifying families, @but certainly not the way we @wanted to start our saturday. @ and severe rain causes @evacuations in mississippi and @clarks dale. @more than 100 homes were @evacuated on one street because @of water overflowing from the @sun

south and some @areas are seeing two feet of @rain in a short amount of time. @and now the rivers are swelling @and now the rivers are @swelling. @silver line @silver lining this morning was @that low that was stuck is @starting to open up and @eventually rain will be on the @move. @today, we still have heavy @downpours lifting north across @parts of mississippi and @alabama this morning, and you @can see, you know, different @set-up than what we saw a few @days ago. @a lot of lightning in the gulf @and draw our attention to the @west where our rain starting @tomorrow afternoon and so much @of a weaker fashion. @in fact showers will mainly be @near the coast and shift inland @through the afternoon. @sunday will be the best day for @us to see any raindrops this @weekend. @not to say we don't have the @moisture to work with. @it is muggy out the door. @of showers. @lake placid, arcadia, some in @and around your neck of the @woods, but 90% of us are dry @and the high cloud cover. @morning. @live look over downtown is nice @and quiet. @soupy out there though. @dew points in the 60s. @our air temperatures at 65 and @winds currently light out of @the north here in tampa, and @they are kind of all over the @east. @look at our temperatures @ranging from 78 in plant city @to 65 in tampa, 73 in pinellas @park. @we have 73 in west choice. @it is 57 in inverness. @56 in brooksville. @down i-75 we go. @a mixed bag of 60s and 70s. @so above-average temps. @we are on track for another @really warm day. @59 in bartow. @67 degrees in sebring. @it is muggy. @dew points are up and they have @gone up the past few days. @combine that with the eating of @the day. @it, of course, feels warmer and @with light wind, a little @patchy fog this morning. @strawberry festival is on going @this weekend. @the grand prix @this morning any fog patchy @from dade city to plant city @maybe along u.s. 31 and nothing @major. @southerly wind fueling our high @humidity value. @the rain to the west is what we @are watching for the weekend. @for today a stray inland @showers. @rain chances 10 to 20%. @but our air temperature will be @warm @warm up to 83 today. @time out the rain. @we, of course, have plans this @weekend. @by lunchtime this is overdoing @it but can't rule out a couple @of inland showers lifting north @throughout the day. @most of the area stays dry @today. @a sea breeze off the beach. @tomorrow morning is dry and @more clouds for sure. @by midday an isolated shower @near the coast shifting inland @throughout the day and more @rain to the west may push into @the evening hours. @cap our rain chances on sunday @40%. @today they are more like 10 to @20%. @a nice day. @more cloud cover around. @we have to spring forward @meaning early risers like @myself a little more tired. @67 overnight. @we turn the clocks forward @meaning the sun sets closer to @8:00 as opposed to 7:00 and @during the day on sunday, @scattered showers developing @shifting inland up to 81 @degrees. @not a widespread main event. @dry hours. @rain lingering monday and late @in the week. @we are gearing up for rain next @weekend and looks good for @spring breakers. @st. patty's day looks great. @80 degrees for the high. @by next weekend, i am expecting @more moisture to move in. @we will watch that. @overall high temperatures will @rebound this week to close to a @little above average. @our average high is 76. @ thank you, in sports this @morning at 6:21. @the lightning trying to take on @the flyers and get back in the @win column after a couple of @losses and bucs make

@hillsborough county. @a wrong-way accident on the @crosstown expressway involving @a hillsborough county deputy. @that deputy has passed away at @the hospital. @the wrong-way driver has also @we are told that the wrong-way @driver was driving westbound on @the eastbound lanes headed to @the elevated portion of the @crosstown expressway. @that deputy had been with the @force for five and a half years @force for five and a half @years. @came from a family involved in @law enforcement. @so our thoughts and prayers are @with this family at this time. @right now the elevated portion @of the

walter: a live reporter at @the scene. @kelly cowan will talk to @hillsborough county officer and @we look forward to getting more @information. @ 6:29. @looking forward to get out of @the house. @we have something just for you. @>> anjuli: a bunch of hot @happenings across the bay area. @this weekend the chance to @catch some of the best players @in person. @the valspar championship taking @place. @ developing this morning, @another deadly wrong-way @accident. @this time on the crosstown @expressway. @>> walter: the officer, the @deputy has been killed as well @as the wrong-way driver. @we want to get out to fox 13 @kelly cowan on the story for @us. @kelly, what do we know so far? @we are learning more of this @wrong-way crash this morning @that occurred on the elevated @portion of the selmon @expressway. @now that is a reversible center @lane. @so depending on what time of @day it is, that lane actually @reverses for the traffic. @now you can see right over my @shoulder there is a sign saying @that right now those lanes are @closed to oncoming traffic. @of course, there are also @barricades set up for someone @to be alerted that they would @be getting on the wrong way. @but as i am told, you can @i am joined by larry mckinnon @from the hick sheriff's @department. @what happened this morning, @larry? @>> well, first of all, our @thoughts and prayers go out to @the family of this deputy. @and the other victim who caused @the crash, but what we know now @is that the deputy had just @finished a traffic -- he was a @traffic investigator. @he was coming back from tampa @general hospital, heading back @to his patrol district in @ruskin. @apparently this wrong-way @driver got on the crosstown as @you mentioned on the upper deck @which is the reversible, and @depending on the location of it @-- it could be anywhere from 50 @to 65 miles per hour and what @it appears now that they struck @completely head on. @the driver of the wrong-way @vehicle died at the scene and @our deputy died at the @hospital. @>> reporter: larry, you were @showing some photos of me of @the deputy's vehicle, barely @recognizable. @tell us what happened as they @tried to save him? @>> well, hillsborough county @fire rescue did an amazing job @quickly and get him to the @hospital. @you will release the pictures @later and you can see the @majority of the damage that you @will see in that vehicle was @from the crash. @the crashed vehicle missing the @roof. @the deputy's vehicle missing @the roof, but other than that, @it literally looks what on @these vehicles from an ied like @it is completely blown up. @we know that the front end of @the vehicle was pushed almost @all the way back to the front @driver's seat. @so a very violent impact and @just unfortunate that we @continue to see these type of @crashes throughout our @community. @and they are so easily @avoidable. @right now we are looking to see @whether the wrong-way drive was @impaired or not. @that is still under @investigation. @>> reporter: larry, i know it @must be tough any time you come @across one of these accidents @or one of these crashes, but @especially when a deputy is @involved, i would imagine. @>> i have been doing this a @long time and it never gets any @easier. @i think what really drives it @home for all of us regardless @of who it is that these are @crashes that can be easily @you know, the vast majority of @these days are drivers that are @impaired @impaired, and it just goes to @show that we are no more immune @to it than anybody else in the @public, and are are, of course, @we continuously operate of @these peak hours of the bar @closing and what not and we @worry about getting shot and @worry about all the other @things that go on in our @career, but here is an example @right now that i think it is @the second or third leading @cause of death for law @enforcement are these traffic @crashes. @and when it is one that could @have been avoided, it makes it @even worse. @>>reporter: absolutely. @100% avoidable crashes. @for now reporting live out in @tampa. @now i do want to actually @mention what is closed right @now. @so the westbound pouring @so the westbound portions of @the selmon expressway will be @opening back up soon, and we @are told for the next four to @five hours, the eastbound lanes @will be closed down, so just @plan accordingly if you were @traveling through this area @and, of course, our thoughts @and prayers are with the drives @for now, reporting live, kelly @cowan, fox 13 news. @back to you, guys. @>> heartbreaking story. @>> walter: heartbreaking story @>> walter: heartbreaking @story. @a story i will probably share @throughout the morning, but @when i was in school bus, ohio. @a man was in the law @enforcement. @he is a police officer and his @dad was a police officer and @the biggest relief when his dad @came home and he took off his @vest. @when he heard the velcro it @meant dad was home safe. @it really illustrates the @danger they go through each and @every day not like larry said @getting shot at and car crashes @getting shot at and car @crashes, every day on the job @is a danger. @>> anjuli: our thoughts and @prayers are with his family @certainly. @>> walter: okay, we want to @get to the weather on this @saturday morning. @lindsay milbourne, 65 degrees. @>> lindsay: and humid. @the moisture
