Officials tell me at that level they figure about 550 homes and businesses are going to be affected by this flood. Emergency crews have been kept busy because of the storm and the rising waters of the Russian River. From sky 7 you can see this raft team transporting a man whose home was safe but was boxed in by the floodwater.

Hear what they want. Time to go home, go home. The video im about to show you is incredibly dramatic, but it also proves that peoples quick actions will save lives. The first one is video from a home that is down because of an exploding gas line under the home. Two families lived inside this home. And at this point, if you believe in miracles, i think you will agree this is one of them. Because under all of this rubble, in fact, the people are moving desperately out of the w way, is life. And listen to what life. Do you hear that . Those are the cries of a child. A girl about 1 year old that was miraculously saved in her crib. Apparently there was a bar above it that wedged the falling ceiling around the child. And it allowed her to survive long enough for these people to reach her by her legs and pull her out. Oh wow any idea how long she was trapped . Nick, it took them about two hours to get to the child and save her life. Unfortunately, the childs mother did not make it. In this in

North wind at 7. Skies are clear. But our winds are up and they will stay elevated at the beach and on the bay. Especially first half of today. Sustained winds in st.

Jackets i think you will need them from arcadia at 54. Lakeland, 55. Brooksville, 52. And 62 degrees in sarasota. 24hour from a few degrees cooler at 5 in bradenton to 11 in haines city, leesburg, tampa and brandon. The best part is that refreshing punch of dew points in the 40s and 50s this morning and thats behind our cold front moved through yesterday as High Pressure nudges in. Cooler overnight tonight throughout day today though because of that cool start, and that dry air. We only rebound to 71 at noon. And 76 for the afternoon highs. Hopefully you like fall. New morning troopers are on the scene of a deadly accident in tampa and alcohol was a factor. Happened
