Sunrise. Plug your ears, it will be fine. National french toast day, thanks for all of the pictures you sent in. If you do send in the picture use the fox 29 good day. We will start showing them. Sometime by the end of the week. Sabrinas has agreed to bring some by, cuba libre is bringing something by. We will be at the gym later on today. All together. Cant get off the couch. You know what else makes this day a wonderful day beside french toast. What . It is a 10. Chilly start, yes but it is november. We expect to be chill any november but the rest of the day looks fabulous, and warm coat required for this morning and maybe some french toast like bus stop buddy has, in the 20s and 30s out there. Thirtyfive is our current temperature in philadelphia, feels like 31. There is that official sunrise time that just happened at 7 00 oclock. So 60. 61 degrees, milder afternoon then yesterday even with that early sunset so it looks like a great day to day, how, long can we keep this lovely weather pattern going . We will let you know coming up , bob kelly, good morning. Good morning, sue, good morning. 7 02. Lights out, this is city line avenue right at route 23 conshohocken state road here, it has been a free for all, you see blinking lights here trying get someone out here to hit the reset button because folks on city line of yellow. They have been flying through, hopefully we dont have an accident here as the school bus go on by city line. Traffic lights out, boulevard old lincoln highway up here right, just a block away from the philadelphia bensalem interchange, coming on the bennie no problems at the moment, good news they got that crane out of there so that is opened up sixth street between race and arch so were okay in olde city as you are rolling in but we have got some delays on the first couple of trains out of the gaeton both trenton and doyletown line. Mike and alex, back over to you. We have a search on for a hit and run driver who struck two people. Police say that driver left behind a lot of evidence, and they know that the driver got out of the car, took a look and then drove off. He knew what he did, steve keeley. Reporter he didnt know what he was about to approach coming around this curve. You only have a second or two coming around the curve on street road like he did and then these drivers are now stopped for the light which gives us a sense of they are sloping down a hill and see headlights coming around that curve. When you are doing the speed limit at 45 that doesnt give you time to see anybody maybe crossing the street street here, at quarter after 8 00 when it is dark out. We dont know if people were dressed, running across jaywalking or running light and speeding to make it through the light but we do know a couple people were hit and driver did stop, stopped, looked around, helped and got back in his truck and took off heres video from the scene at night from sky fox, as police got here, they started finding evidence of this accident and that is passenger side mirror and passenger side front head lamp glass both told them this was a 1997 ford pickup truck and witnesses said that it was two tone in color, probably maroon, gray but could have been maroon and tan. 1997, 20 yearold truck with the ladder on the back. Not many around that would likely stand out. Alex and mike after the accident the guy took off heading eastbound down very busy street road here in to bensalem and those Police Departments from here to philadelphia were outlooking for him but they have not found him 11 hours and counting. Steve, looking at how people flying around that curve corned around a hill, wow. Reporter that shows you, that this driver may not have been at fault had he stopped and stayed because if he has the light and he has got the speed limit at 45 then he didnt do anything wrong but as soon as you leave that is worst possible thing you can do on a driving violation. Who knows what he was trying to hide. New report says countrys most dangerous intersection is not too far from where steve keeley was in bucks county. Chicago law firms report appeared in Time Magazine claiming that the intersection of the knights road and street road is the most dangerous. The survey analyzed data from 2003 through 12 and in that time that intersection has seen seven fatal crashes. Good lord. Experts blame high traffic, factors for this. So steves will check that out , that intersection to see what makes it so dangerous this time of the morning, when people do their morning commute. If you live by knights and street road this intersection right here, why is it so dangerous . You probably deal witt every morning, every afternoon . Get on twitter and let us know why it is such a bad intersection, the worst in the country. Lets go to delco now a two alarm fire sweeps through an abandon home overnight multiple Fire Departments were called to the scene. Officials say it started 2 30 in the 400 block of bickley place. Upper darby another violent act against an innocent victim get this lauren johnsons there at Upper Darby Police department, and superintendent chitwood, he is well understandably well really mad reporter yeah, not very happy. Yesterday he paid victim in the hospital a visit before he had to have surgery to repair that broken leg. He said man was in good spirits wishing him a Merry Christmas just moments before his surgery but things were not so merry, happy on sunday at 2 30 leaving 69th street station but he was described as a kind, self less man who work in his yard and bothered no one but on sunday someone bothered him you, threw him to the ground, kick, punched him and took off with a hundred dollars, flip phone and backpack. He was so badly injured he could not even move. Doctors say violent attack left him in pretty bad condition. Yes, definitely crazy. He minds his business. I see him doing, work in front of the house or in the back so that is sad. We are not we are asking for a publics help this was a violent attack for no reason other than pure simple robbery reporter so, chitwood says that they need the publics help. They are checking cam race in the area around that attack. They are checking cameras at 69th street station hoping to find out if someone followed him home but until then we are wishing the best for that man who had surgery yesterday and hopefully mike and alex, he is on the mend from that. Lets hope so. What a bunch of cowards. 7 07. Yesterday at at this time pea were looking at sky fox over a trash truck with a guy inside this he they pulled him out in Critical Condition after being stuck inside of a truck for two hours. It happens outside the kentock group home, in the erie Avenue Police say the three threeyear old was sleeping inside the dumpster when a garbage truck lifted it and dumped him out. And then started to compressing the trash and him inside, wow. 7 08. Sixers faced a teslas night against cleveland cavilers, people were there to see lebron, werent they. It was a packed house. Umhmm. So calves did well and sixers did not. No, they didnt. The calves beat our sixers, 11391. Wasnt close. Came down to shooting. The sixers were way off their game. Listen to this they tried, well, they missed, 25, three pointers. Twentyfive. They were tight as heck. Maybe a little nervous with the big stage, who knows. Back in the line up, ben simmons, did not have a good game, 10 points, two assists. Joel embiid though he came to play, 30 points but he just made 11 of 24 shots but he still just kept shooting and shooting. So people wanted to see lebron with joel embiid and all. That look at this, Bleacher Report tweeted in wade and lebron took embiid to school. Did you see that. He is getting tired of hearing about how great embiid will be. He will be good. No question bit. He just wants to make sure he is still the king. Sixers made it tough down the stretch, they came closer and closer. Anyway we play wizard tomorrow , Boston Celtics on thursday and Detroit Pistons on sunday. They will bounce back. Yes. Tough test. People are saying they are still learning. They are. They are still jelling. Getting it together. They were tight. They missed 25, threes. Did you see though who rang the sixers bell before the game. Ring my bell, ring my bell. Malcolm jenkins and lagarrette blount, they were both there and they were ringing the bell together. They took monday off. Why not. Eagles are 10one. They wanted them there. That was a big ticket for sure. Malcolm posted this picture to instagram and by the way his wife was there. Yes. She should be. She is expecting another child. I think shes coming up on her due date. We got to do a fashion show with her a couple weeks ago. Fedi wap was there. What do you know about fedi name a fedi wap song right now. Chances are. You know fedi wap that is a sample of a Johnny Mathis song , most popular song. I know. That was it. What are the odd of me doing, it is fedi wap. A lot of mepeoples, mena say what. Only person to get me out of trouble is president trump. President trump head to the capitol trying to make a final push to get that tax deal through congress. He will conn joel, shake hand and talk people into this tax bill. But some republican hold outs will be tough to win over and is there plenty of other work to be done before the end of the year. Doug luzader that was a very genetic toss to you hopefully you can make something out of it. Reporter song here will be maybe if republicans can all get on the same page, it is why the president is coming here to capitol hill because as far as his tax cut plan is concerned in the senate the head count right now is coming up short. President trump has been spend ago lot of time making the trip down pennsylvania avenue to capitol hill, todays visit will be an important part of his ongoing sales job for tax cuts. I think it will benefit everybody. It will mostly benefit people looking for jobs because we are giving great incentives. Reporter enough republicans are on the fence to easily kill this deal in the senate. They are not there yet and they are worried. It is just the fact they dont have votes yet. Whether they will or not i still lean in the yes category because these people want to get to yes. Reporter among issues g. O. P. Deficit hawks who dont like impact on the debt. It is very important to me to know that were not, were not increasing deficits. Reporter democrats are hardly on board. Majority shouldnt be ram go through such an ill conceived backward bill. Reporter it is clear after a tax meeting at the white house yesterday that republican frustration is rising. I just hope that they will get off their dust and start working with us, rather than just voting in block against everything we try to come up with. Reporter tax cuts are not the only issue on tap before the end of the year. Coming up december 8th the government funding, technically runs out, which means that unless the republicans and democrats get on the same page and come up with a bipartisan bill, some funding we could be talking about a government shut down before christmas. We shall see. That is quite a task. All right, thanks, doug see you here again tomorrow. I will just go home by the way. Why, dont go home. Look what is happening, camp out for hunger preston and steves annual event. They have raised so much. So many donations. Great thing to see, so donations are collecting and look at those bins they are filling up, this is day two. They have a big truck, over at xfinity live and they are doing this around the clock, we will give nonperishable goods. But first 7 14. Time for sue serio. Yeah, im coming. Our weather so nice i was compiling statistics for 2017 Hurricane Season which is almost over. It ends november 30th so these are the names that we used so far. We got up to rina and it doesnt look like we will have any tropical development. That is how the season will end but prediction, we were tied with 1937 as the fifth most active season. Wye had 10 hurricanes and they all came in a row and most costly season ever since record have been kept, since about the 1850s. 367 billion plus, mostly due to harvey, irma and maria those destructive hurricanes which came in the late fall or early fall i should say. That is just a little recap of the Hurricane Season which is almost over. Things will be more tranquil for us here in philadelphia. We are looking ahead, to no rain today, no rain tomorrow, plenty of sunshine, we have short days, gets dark early but lots to enjoy, on a daylight is here. We have cloud cover rolling in , and that is on thursday, couple snowflakes possible at night in the mountain and quick shower, gone, probably, and, 26 in mount pocono. Sun has been up for a little while.

Sixty tomorrow. That is 10 worthy and eight on thursday with late day showers , back to seasonal temperatures, by, the weekend, looking, and we are looking good. Lets get the forecast if you miss mid of that on our radio partner more fm, jingle bell rock the radio. We have an accident northbound route 55 approaching the 42 freeway and that will cause delays for everybody coming up from south jersey, freeway itself heavy working in toward the whitman pain cheers to the bus drivers as they make the turn, traffic lights are on flash, this is right here at intersection of the city line avenue, and route 23, we got chiles there in the background and we have seen near misses we will get somebody out there to hit reset button or get an officer out there to direct traffic, traffic lights also on flash on the roosevelt boulevard at old lincoln highway right up here at philly bensalem interchange of the pennsylvania turnpike, otherwise top two delays south on i95 out of the northeast, on the schuylkill, sun glare starting to pop up around the curve and then live look at the benny coming into downtown here, we have a tractor trailer here disable out of here good to go and both the trenton, doyletown and wilmington line running with minor delays this morning, mike and alex, back over to you. I have no idea what you said. We were just talking. That is okay. Was it good. We love you, bob. Are you okay, do you want me to get you another coffee. I really should just go home. Just stick around. What are we doing. We will talk about how lebron, i thought it was after the game but it is before when they were warming up. They could not talk to lebron james enough, fantastic basketball player coming in toe into take on our sixers they doubt pneumonia up much of a fight. They started to talk about football. Lebron james say yesterday, im a Dallas Cowboys fan but his favorite player in the nfl is. Carson wentz. Let him say. My favorite player right now is carson wentz. I told my brother that early in the season. I love the way he plays the game. He loves the way he plays the game. Cowboys fan saying his favorite player is an eagles player, controversy. Controversy. Now, eagles, this carson wentz, people love him likely brandon and a lot of people, o h, god is he peeking too earl any his career. He is already talking about embiid only in his second season. Yes, yes. So are we celebrating his success too early. If you were going to ask the coach that question how would you ask it. Do you think he is peak to go soon . Or too earl any his career. Listen to how another reporter put it . This is the weirdest question . Have we seen maybe a premature explosion. The reporter ask him do you think it is a premature explosion. Dougiep took it the way i would take it, of course. Of course would you take that it way in my immature, 12 yearold sense of humor premature explosion. He has exploded on the field, an explosion of wins and like passes, and, im trying, im working. Were 12 years old. When we hear premature we get right to it. Because we have all had troubles witt. No im kidding. Lets move on. Is that a testimony. Im just telling the truth. Coming up on 7 20. Facebook has new software and thinks interesting, they will give this software to help prevent suicide. Lets hope so. This is a big deal by facebook , trying to be pro active here. Will it work. Plus not only will they keep you warm but they will keep you close to your loved one too. The mittens for couples that dont ever let go. Oh, smittens. No matter how you holiday, where you holiday, or who you holiday with. Stay bright with dunkins holiday coffee flavors like brown sugar cinnamon, and peppermint mocha. Grab your favorite and make your holidays happen. The holidays run on dunkin. 1thats like a big yummy hug. . So hug it up hug more. Hug large. Hug medium . Hug that. Live it a hug life with 1. 99 medium or larger hot chocolate. America runs on dunkin. I think i am. Good thing. My only concern is how will they make sure that this the technology is right here. Okay. Basically facebook will use new technology to tackle tough issue of suicide, and maybe help save some lives. Tracie, how will they do this. Reporter Artificial Intelligence is going to scan all of the posts, the videos, everything that is on facebook for suicidal thoughts, forethoughts of someone maybe harming themselves, and then that information will be passed on to Facebook Team member that will look at it more in depth and really figure out if there is a pattern here, if someone is in need of help and from there they can either reach out to the person through facebook messenger, or fit is annex stream case they can send First Responders there to intervene. I agree, this is something we should appla facebook for, this is going to be a global effort, and so hopefully it does help, and preventing some suicides. I think we are seeing them used this Artificial Intelligence for a good cause. Pick out certain word, and im sure whatever this would be, would be, i dont know, technology, has been developed by psychiatrists. Yes, the robots, they will look for word like are you okay . Can i help . If they see that maybe in a post, people responding to a post with those things that might be a flag for the Artificial Intelligence to bring that post to maybe one of the facebook employees to look at a little further inner to it. Have you ever visited facebook . The actual building. Reporter no, i have not, no. I have not either. Would i like to. Where are all these people that do this. Isnt it robots but just technology. There has got to be someplace where it is housed. Isnt tonight california. California. Probably. That is where all of this Smart Technology comes from it seems like, silicone valley. Further east you
