Otherwise take 97th or 30 one if you can easily get to those work arounds. We will good to this live look veterans expressway slower speeds we are seeing in area between van dyke and hutchinson. Overall not a terrible thing as far as the vets southbound direction looking at about 14 minute ride to get from top to bottom. As bee showed you right here probably going slower spot as you travel southbound along veterans. And other slow spots to check in on westbound i417 machines it will take you in red here 75 to get to the 275. And moderate congestion here knot bound 275 coming over Howard Frankland. Could be big, when you think about autism, boys typically come to mind. Theres probably a reason for that. At least four times more common in boys so they think. Scientist are finding out that may not be true. Its just that it might not strike girls the same way it does boys. Scientist dont know what causes autism other than possibility a genetic mutation has somehow taken place. Only issue with that is that girls and boys could have the same mutation. But not same symptoms. In fact some have twice the mutation to show the same symptoms as boys. The brain and social behavior areas normally affected by autism are less impaired in girls than boys. And it could take a lot longer for an autism diagnosis. But this could be huge. Is fascinating. It is. One the pitchers for Cleveland Indians is getting married soon. What year. After pitching an extraordinary something pretty cool. Were not going to forget about the cubs here this morning. What chicago area hospitals are doing for babies who are born during the world series. But first, looking for a Family Friendly place to check out this halloween . Charleys got an idea.

Buesing fought to foreclose assistedliving retirement homes, against charges of helping a ponzischemer swindle millions. Buesings firm was even accused of overbilling local schools , running fees up to seventy thousand dollars. Now, buesings running for senate. How far will bob buesing go . Coming to you from florida aquarium. I told you i was going to tell you why there are now ray inside big tank here. Also told you somebody from our beloved Baseball Team would show up and be on camera with us during a live segment. Well, there he is. Raymond, raymond is over there. Visiting over there. Raymond was hanging out with the rays. Yeah. Yeah. Look at that. Whats funny is when raymond went over there all rays here comes another one over here raymond. Right here. Hes coming to look at you. For some reason the rays are drawn to raymond. I love it. Now you know. Now you know what happens in the off season. There you go. Raymond. Cubs or indians raymond. What do you think .

Hey laura very good morning to you. I am here sirnt section of kennedy avenue and south Parker Street. South Parker Street kind of dividing two big lots here. Yu can take a look. Hes one grass lines behind me. You can see theyve got a guy here mowing the grass. Not going to be the case a couple years from now. Hopefully what they are hoping for. Hillsborough river Reality Company they applied with city to have this area rezoned for blend of Residential Hotel office and retail spaces. Theyve got three big towers that this location. First its called la fi yet tower. Going to be 40 towers tall two other building will be 26 stories tall. They will have a residential units in them as well as parking spaces. This is a project that has a lot of support. I spoke with sally dewho is spoke person for project. They have very, very good feeling as they go forward with mayors envisioning putting Hillsborough River is center of the city. So wee pretty excited. So you dont see there being any problems . Well i never really its not over until its over. So i hope not, if there is well be happy to address them. You still electric to do like a cost study if you will as part rezoning process. Mayor box buckhorn was tweeting aout this yesterday. He is in favor of it. Downtown area. Laura and russell. Parking. Thats the you you know what i mean. I. I suppose you can. Yeah. They had issues with that. In downtown tampa. Whats going on my friend. Im just perusing this. Weve got Bermuda Triangle and snakes. Walking snakes. We will get to that in a little bit. Thats after commercial break. Yeah. Strange story. Strange. Very strange story. First lets show you a little bit of cloud cover outside of tampa cam. 64 degrees our current temperature with that variable wind around 3 miles per hour. Show you couple of different cameras. Pretty much the same result as were getting a little band of clouds to move through this morning. U sf marine science camera, 67 degrees where that north, northeast wind at 5 miles hour. Another shot that brook dale bay shore camera where its pretty as well. A little bit of that mid level cloud cover. I want to take you out to the beach too where its 65 degrees in Hilton Clearwater beach camera. It really is such a nice day. Were starting things off a little bit warmer than we did yesterday. Some two to 4 degrees warmer around the area. As High Pressure in control. Notice the wind direction, northeast again. Were at that point where we dont have any big fronts coming through over the next seven modify the air mass. One that cold front left behind. Right . Pthat cooler air mass. Yeah it just warms up. Eventually were going to get back into te mid 80s. Then we will stay in the mid 80s more than likely until the next front comes through. Which is, not until at least next week some time. Mostly sunny and warm today. We made it to 80 yesterday. Go back to 83 for a high today. Then for tonight, clear, seasonable, 65. Overnight low. Although, thats going to inland north. Youll easily get back into the 50s. Which means light jacket weather tomorrow morning a cloud or two for wednesday afternoon with a High Temperature around 85 degrees. So nice seasonably warm temperatures. Seas running less than two feet. Boaters a light chop and water temperature in the mid 70s. And theres an next 7 days. 84, 85 for highs. In fact that does include halloween itself going to be a warm day with sunshine. You know how we always show the lakeland camera and we always say this is overlooking lake mirror. And lakeland. We got a picture in of what it looks like from the grouped. I thought, elizabeth walker, beautiful picture. By people who just walk around lake mirror and enjoy that site each and every day. Fox 13 good day mug for you. If you want to win a mug you got to go to my Facebook Page and check out contest okay, vanessa. Yes. Submit that picture get it air then we get to ohhh and ahhh over it.

Were going check roadways right now. This is pinellas county. Might see some lingering delays northbound on 275 approaching 38th. This is after an earlier crash. There was lane blockage reported more. But there might be something lingering on shoulder. Its a bit slow basically back from downtown st. Pete area to 38th. And its taking about 26 minutes to get from 175 exit all way to tampa side of the Howard Frankland bridge. Keep that in mind if you take 275 north that you pinellas this morning. Otherwise no big complaints. Just a reminder out of south tampa area sewer construction, started yesterday. But macdill is going to be closed between gandy and fair oaks road to reopen in afternoon. Make sure avoiding area in meantime. Dont forget were following this crash still out of parish. School bus involved. No injuries to the kids on board. 1 in avenue east at eerie road and they do have traffic alternating as youre traveling down eerie. Drug addiction is topic most people dont want to talk about. They think it can never happen to them or they are in denial they have a problem. And in silence. But they dont have to. Thats why in 2011, president obama declared october Substance Abuse prevention month. Let users know there is help out there. To educate others and prevent them from getting hooked on drugs. Christina tucker is with drury center of recovery. One many Drug Treatment Center in florida. Good morning. Thank you for having me. We hear all of these stories, more and more often how Substance Abuse is growing problem. Talk us to about the prevalence. Just how well you did its been said that you cant shake a family tree without an addict falling out of it addiction is more prevalent than more people realize there are more 20 Million People today suffering from Substance Abuse. 20 million, wow. And out of that 20 millionomy three million have sought treatment. There are over 17 million untreated addicts out there in the United States right now. And theres this stereotypical thats not necessarily true. Quite contrary. Actually, that addict is more likely to be still living at home with mom and dad than under the bridge. You know over 90 percent of people suffering from Substance Abuse have started using before the age of 18. And the biggest use of elicit drugs is between 18 and 25 years old. So that age group is at risk being right in the middle of in United States right now. That the biggest drug issue out there right now . I i would say heroin some people think just pot or couple beers. But acan be get addicted to any type of substance . What they say is it only takes one time. Thats how addictive it really is. Talk to me about a drug addiction and whether are not its preventible anything we can do a parents can do for their child to make sure this does not understand how some people can get addicted to drugs or alcohol. Theyll blame it on low moral standards or very little will power, low self esteem. But the fact is there is no one factor that can contribute to whether someone will be addicted or not. It could happen to anyone. And is it preventible to be honest with you this disease . Not any more than the disease but its not hopeless. There are things that people can do when they are ready to reach out and get help . There definitely are. There definitely are. The good news is that there is hope in recovery for those 20 Million People out there. And the way i would explain it is for them to get into something that is what we call the full continuum of care. This starts with going into a place like detox you go if in for five to 7 days we safely medically remove all drugs and alcohol from your body. 45day program. Such as dream center for recovery. Where we have therapiests taylor make your treatment plan that attack the core issues of your Substance Abuse, Mental Health and trauma issues. And then thats continued with another 36 months in Sober Living Residence such new direction sober living. Its 24hour monitored we help them get a sober support, sponsor. Get useded to attending meetings. Really tra prevention. And, and if its not easy, there are no short cuts. But this is a very complex disease. But its very treatable. If you do the work. If you do the work. If somebody takes this serious and they really apply themselves in this full continuum of care, even the most the toughest addict can be can realize the dream of Addiction Free living. You see it every day. We see it every day at the dream center. Ive seen it many times. Recovery. So if someone is out there listening and maybe struggling whats the first step that they can take to get better . First step that they can take would be to call admissions hotline we have a bunch of trained individuals that will help them in their steps of entering into this continuum of care. All right thank you so much chrstina. Thank you so much for having me. Stay with us coming up 9 oclock we will talk to young man and well hear his story of y256iy yy6y i served under president bush and obama. I fought the taliban. I was asked to form a Global Coalition to counter isil. When someone makes the comment that they know more about the Islamic State or isil than do the generals, it implies a complete ignorance of the reality. The threat that the Islamic State poses to the United States and to the american people. And i believe she understands how to wield American Power to ultimately defeat this threat and to keep us safe. Im Hillary Clinton i moved on her like a [bleep]. You can do anything. Grab them by the [bleep] we have to make sure that donald wins this election. No we dont. Marco rubio stands by trump and failed to show up for florida. Bringing people together and reaching across the aisle to get things done. Protecting social security. And building an economy that works for all of us. Im Patrick Murphy and i approved this message russell 2shot its one of the biggest mysteries of our time. The Bermuda Triangle. Many have gone in. But never made it back. lau its 8 45 one one biggest mystery Bermuda Triangle many have gone in but they never came out scientist think they may have figure the out what is behind the mystery. Dave o. Science pro is here to explain why the answer maybe in the sky. No. Its blowing up over past few days. We dont know Bermuda Triangle an area that stretches from i lan beer but you mu today and over swan and beak creating triangle. Over decades and decades, many aircraft, many ships have just literally vanished. And it was i think it was a term that was coined in the 70s its really kind of kicked in. Now they are saying may know why. But dave o. The science pro is here to tell you dont agree with this. Covers an area half million square miles. You see the clouds, thats Bermuda Triangle see those hexagonal clouds. This is an area they noticed over north see near uk produced these down burst winds one 00 miles per hour. So when they started to see these near bermuda in that area at 100 miles per hour. They are taking out ships. Taking taking taking out plains. Meteorologically that has to be reason we lost ships. Number one, that area of the water is the most travel in the world. Okay. So odds are, youre going to make it through there. But number 2, micro bursts which really what in essence they are talking about here, they dont have a big holes in the middle of that. It would be a big thunderstorm but it wouldnt have a hole in the middle like youre showing there. So while i this doubt that maybe there . Some type of a down draft there, i dont think that thats going to, make these ships or planes vanish without a trace to be honest with you. I just i can see the meteorological component that could cause some issues. But lets just, these, planes and ships are going. They are just going. There no trace of them. Destroyed a ship there would stuck at the surface in how far back does urban legend go . It goes back a couple hundred. Yeah it really does. Now im not saying this is not something going on whether theres something magnetically going on or whether just human error. Chance are if youre going to have thousands and thousands of ships and planes move through same area you will lose a few. Thats kind of my thing. Also they never measured this. And thats the problem i with. They never measured underneath hexagonal clouds in Bermuda Triangle. They are guesstimating and saying, we think its this. Well, you got to prove that. Dont you think . Science is about proof. Russell you got this weird look on your face. You know i just think if at this point with all the technology we have to be able to figure things out, this just doesnt work for me. And i agree with you. And this is something that came channel channel or Science Program i think we got Better Technology now to detect. Youre right, wheres the wreck age . Where is all the stuff that would prove it. Unless being sucked up into sky by space aliens. Well guys we only have like a minute. Go. Legless snakes. More than 100 million years ago snakes had visible legs. Imagine that. They are walking around. Were talking about boa tiny legs. Well they are gone now. Well there is a gene inside and they do find little tiny leg bones inside of these boa constrictors even now. This gene uses what they call an enhancer to help work. The enhancer is its shuts off the leg gene in the snakes which does not allow them to grow like it did 100 million years ago. What they did is they took rats into the rats and rats didnt develop legs. But, they used human enhancer and the rats developed legs again. So there is something inside that enhancer that gene enhancer that just gets shut off when snakes have developed and does not allow them to grow their legs. Although 100 million years ago they dont know what shut that radio accepter off. Didnt either. Maybe that was it. Maybe they got to point they didnt need them. Got in way four l bunch of legs. Yeah. And didnt need them any more. I guess they are right. I guess they didnt need them. They obstructed things. You know thats how evolution happens. Agree. But at least theyve isolated that gene and its cool. They know where it is. And fact that its been shut off. I thought that was kind of a cool story. Agreed. Yeah. We run out of time again. Thats all right. Nice stuff today. Charley. I think so. Charley belcher same thing happened to home phone you dont need it any more. You dont have a home phone. I dont know how that released. Let me ask you this. Pop quiz anchors. Raymond, the mascot over beloved tampa bay rays. If raymond was going to dress up for halloween. What would he dress up as . A shark. Spiderman.
