the average age when people cheat the most in a relationship. >>dave: overcast skies this morning and yeah, more rain on the radar. the rain has been lit up over pasco county this morning. it's been light but i'm beginning to see some of those moderate to heavier the flood watch continues from pasco county north through 8:00 so the forecast continues wet overall today. by tomorrow, we'll shift the all batches with an ultra-smooth, full-bodied flavor. discover the craft of cold brew today and keep on. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. how do we make the economy work for everyone? hillary clinton's plan starts here... by making big corporations and those at the top finally pay their fair share in taxes. and those companies that move overseas? she'd charge them an exit tax. in creating good paying jobs since world war ii. millions of jobs. you can read the plan here. dunkin' donuts' unbelievable selection of breakfast sandwiches, freshly made all day, so you can enjoy them any type of way, any time of day. that's breakfast whenevs. >>dave: raindrops on the camera. i've

of skytower radar and the forecast, with dave. (dave still unsettled today, with scattered showers and storms expected. rain chances around 60%, with high temps in the mid to upper 80s. tonight will be warm and steamy; lows in the upper 70s. thursday will feature more scattered afternoon and evening storms, available for traffic. ((wally)) we're following a tragic developing story from charlotte county right now. there was a ?horrible accident at a citizen police academy. a police officer shot and killed a 73-year-old woman during a training exercise at the punta gorda ((wally "mary knowlton" and another person were picked randomly, for a role-playing scenario where an officer had to decide whether to shoot... or not shoot. knowlton was mistakenly hit with a ?live round, and later died. the police chief gave an update on the case... which was broadcast live on facebook overnight: --wally the officer who shot the woman is now on paid leave... and the f-d-l-e is handing the investigation. fox-13's shayla reaves will be covering this story for us this morning. she's heading down to pu

ahead. first the dave and the weather. dave and the weather. >>laura: the man. >>dave: it is. let's do a little forecast for you, sir. 81 degrees, second hour in a row we're sitting just above the 80-degree threshold here in the tampa area. it's the 75 dew point. of course, it's very steamy outside. you would think this warm and muggy, right? there would be thunderstorms all over the place this afternoon. but you have to look up above the surface and that drier air above us is going to to put 20% of the rain chance for this afternoon which means easily back up into the lower 990s. the vanessa? >>vanessa: don't get any ideas. i'm not calling you the dave. >>dave: come on. >>vanessa: thanks, dave, by the hour bridge. last hour we were watching a crash blocking a left lane. it was in this area between the mid span and the st. pete side. see how they're fairing. they kind of peaked at the seven, eight minute mark, back down to normal, completely ideal conditions heading into st. pete, fourth street north. 75 to 275, in the red here southbound 75 fletcher to selmon. that's 17 minutes. >>russe

: and i'm laura moody. we're keeping a close eye on the tropics right now. >>dave: before you walk out the door, it's 79 degrees. actually better than yesterday but still above normal. dew points are running 77. just steamier than that outside. we've also got that easterly wind flow back at us again today, so sunshine and temperatures in the 90s to start. we'll finish with a few thunderstorms late in the day. now you mention the tropics and of course, we're keeping a close eye on this disturbance and that's all it is right now. a disturbance. and it's over the virgin islands in the area near guadalupe. that's where the forming center is. they're going to send a plane to investigate later today. this may take a few more days to develop, but once it reaches the bahamas, it could become a tropical storm or hurricaneful then it has the potential to move through south florida or up the east coast of our state. that's two different solutions and we'll talk about it in a few minutes. >>vanessa: we're on the roads of incident, both in pasco county. first off a crash could be causing eastbo

when is it going to get here? dave is tracking? so where what's going on? >>dave: since last night, not much has changed. it's slowed down the whole process a little bit. i still think this is headed to the west coast of florida, north of tampa, right in the big bend area with thursday being the day that it makes its way onshore so thursday will be the day when we have the biggest impact felt in our area. i show you the viper radar right now because we have the showers pouring in from the southeast and we will continue to get those fast moving showers from east to west across the state similar to yesterday. 60% to 70% rain chances mainly in the afternoon. winds are tropical depression nine are still at 35 miles an hour, though the hurricane center confident it should become a tropical storm later today. notice how it starts to increase the intensity by wednesday afternoon and then by thursday morning, it's still well offshore. by friday morning it's in the jacksonville area. it's making levy county. that path would give us two, maybe three things to be concerned about. number one,

we're at 79 and rain chances about 40 percent. >> all right thanks, dave. 8:0 one. fur adjust joining most serious incident will be a deadly crash out spring hill area. blocking lanes here, harold root at elk lane. we don't know any details about the actual involvement who is involved, but as far as traffic standpoint this is in a neighborhood. if you do want to avoid harold road take mariner. we will get check majors now live look 275 i-4 downtown tampa interchange. not bad here. 34 minutes is that drive time. nine minutes westbound i-4mlk and 14 between bruce b. downs and i-4 taking 75. >> tampa police officer happens to roll up on a car accident on kennedy and west shore. and a what he finds is nothing short of a miracle. investigators think the driver hit three different power poles before wrapping the car around one of them. by looking at the video you would think he has serious be fine. he was taken to hospital and checked out. officers say they believe the person was drunk. >>> sexual assaults are happening on high school grounds, college campus and in every did i life. definit

pokemon go for college credit. details of this course and others that are out of this world. >>dave: sun will be up in 58 minutes and it will be a nice one, too. nice start to the day. it's a little bit of fog and not that bad but just a touch here, touch there. going off to the school bus, we should be okay for the second day of school. we're going to be quiet until late in the afternoon so like down, the storms are going to start to pop. rain chances 40% along the coast and 50% inland. >>vanessa: in the pinellas county area, we're following a serious injury crash. it will likely cause lane blockage so avoid 119th terrace north at ridge road and keep you posted as we learn more information about this one. >>russell: so just about 24 hours ago, vanessa was getting the first indications t plant city. >>laura: a man was shot and killed in an apparent case of road rage. this was not his first aggressive run-in with another driver. >>russell: shayla reaves is live at the hillsborough county sheriff's office. still a lot of questions and not a lot of answers about what happened yesterday

to dave right now and talk about what's out there. what we know. there is ton of moisture in the atmosphere. a little bit convergence. that's all you need to produce rainfall like this. it's still raining heavily. in pinellas county where i guess technically flood advisory is over here a 9 o'clock. let me tell you there will be more of these over the next couple of days if it doesn't start to slow down a little bit. i still have long all of these roadways in pinellas county. still experiencing some rain. gulf boulevard some spots near clear water picture up almost six inches of rain. six inches of rain in the last six hours. so you can see just how much rain is still coming down. i need people to realize it's a rain day out. just slow it down, take it easy. heavy rain from spring hill heading into bay port witchy watch area. further south i've got heavier showers. longboat key this morning as into downtown bradenton area. >> there's your storm, it is tropical depression. however, take look at the satellite. look at the difference in the presentation from 3 o'clock this morning to

laura moody. >>russell: and i'm russell rhodes. first to dave and then it's that time of year, isn't it? >>dave: for the tropics. yeah. for the stuff out there. we have a lot going on in the particular i want everyone to pay attention to. i want to give you today's numbers which are 81 degrees with a dew point of 76. i'm going to be honest with you. that is steamy. our normal low for this time of year would be 76 degrees. we're well above that and that second number, that dew point is real high. we have a lot of sunshine today. we'll quickly get temperatures by noon time, i think many of us will be at 90 degrees already with at least there's a rain chance to cool a few of us off. that's this afternoon and that rain chance around 40%. more on the tropics in a few minutes. >>vanessa: see you then. thanks. here's an update to the polk county crash we mentioned affecting the entrance ramp from county road 557 to westbound i-4. we're learning it's involving a dump truck whose trailer broke off from the cab part, overturned into the grassway. now we have partial lane area. we'll let

the next couple of days, though. let's get to dave to talk about what's going on in the tropics. >>dave: maybe you do to get out of here. we still have a disorganized area over hispanola and is, it's obviously much better than it was 10, 15 years ago but it still has issues when there's no definitive area of low pressure and that's why you've been seeing what we call the windshield wiper effect. models all over the place. they're starting to come to a reasonable solution that whatever that becomes, which right now is nothing more than, again, just a weak system, disorganized, whatever it becomes looks like it may run through the state early next rainfall threat. at minimum, a heavy rainfall threat next week. we have to get through the next few days first. how about 78 degrees outside the door now? highs 92 with rain chances very similar to yesterday at 40%. >>vanessa: update to a crash from our last report reported nebraska just south of fletcher and we're learning it's a school bus crash. we have sky fox showing us the scene. this of nebraska. everything is going to be containe

nine. >>dave: we have a lot of heavy rain and so far, pinellas county has seen the brunt of it this morning, although some is moving over the bridges. i can hear thunder or i have heard thunder outside the station here. i want to zoom in and it's 6:00 in t people have to understand the sun is not up yet but look how hard it is raining with the thunderstorm just pouring onshore. and they're right along 275 in pinellas county going up through pinellas park so the howard frankland is getting some heavy rain. now over the courtney campbell, up to the mid span portion of the courtney campbell, notice how you go back offshore and there's more rain just kind of waiting in the wings and i think this is what we're in for, for you have some heavy rain. that will cause some ponding on the roads a then it slows down. in fact, it may stop for awhile and then another round of rain comes through and i want people to understand that until this tropical depression moves intu our state and away from us, this is what we're going to have the next couple of days and of course, even southeastern hillsbor

wednesday august 24th. we will get straight to dave. we touched 80 degrees in couple minutes on tampa international. warm, muggy, it's, steamy. it's all today set up like yesterday we will get back to low to mid 90s. we'll be a degree or two on either side of 92. but then, the showers and thunderstorms take back over as west again or say northeast to southwest. with rain chance of about 40 percent, you got temperatures running low to mid 90s. this is what we're concerned about. for our state. the gulf into early next week. as it looks like this is will continue. in whatever form it is to move west northwest over next several days. we'll talk more about and what hurricane center is saying in very latest in few minutes. >> all right dave thanks. 8th:0 one updates on earlier trouble spots i-4 westbound we showed you c back in the area of connector. which actually cleared out no lane blockage. f dot moving camera so bear with me. this is i-4 westbound near the connector. we do have new scene i was going to show you earlier involves a trooper we saw fire truck actually in gore striping the

((wally)) with the storm inching closer to the gulf coast, it's "crunch time"... time to start prepping... and get a family storm plan in place. rain and flooding could be big concerns for our area... so sandbags and other supplies, are in high demand.

becoming a hurricane. those look like powerful winds. >>dave: and i think the big issue is because this is not a named storm yet. the computer models are struggling with what's going to happen in the long term. as you look at it, you've got the rain, you've got some wind, wind gusts but high about 55 miles per hour. you can't call it a tropical storm because there's no low level circulation involved with this yet. couple of days, once it moves from the higher terrain of his poniyiyial -- hispanola, we mig see and regardless of winds, which again, we're not going to be able to tell you here at 6:00 a.m. on thursday morning exactly what's going on happen, i can tell you a lot of heavy rain may come through the state early next week. that in itself could be an issue. we're at 78 degrees. we're going to forecast 92. rain chance of talk much more about what potential impacts it may have, 99l in our state. >>vanessa: and 6:01. bring you to eastern hillsborough county. this is an incident since the start of "good day" at 4:00. this appears to be a medical emergency. not tying up any lanes but

, dave. >>dave: let's just skip everything and start with that. wow. amazing. 75 degrees out towards the coastline this morning. it is a beautiful start to the day. and a couple of spots we have some leftover cloud cover from last night. no biggie, though. i think we'll hold off on the rain until late this afternoon. look what just popped up over the horizon. it's beautiful, lake mirror, 75 degrees with that sunshine this morning. we're going to go back to 91 with the rain chances of 40% along the coast. 50% inland. primarily late in the day into the evening hours. >>vanessa: all right. and we have a big trouble spot brewing here northbound 75, hillsborough county. a crash we're seeing here live in the area of i-4 is blocking, say, just one outside lane at this time in the northbound direction but causing traffic to back up towards the area of the selmon expressway pretty heavily so drivers can take a few area of concern is from i-4 back towards the selmon expressway. we have sky fox checking out a crash along southbound u.s. 19 in the area of east bay roosevelt, that intersection, a

and then we'll move over to dave. >> yeah guys we have some big problems on the roadways. crashes galore and then of course the flooding concerns which we'll talk about in just a second. big problems that we're seeing here, w back ups overturned vehicle crash sunshine skyway bridge with heavy northbound lane blockages. if you're just joining we do have one lane passing the right lane that's going to be passing. but if you can take 75 instead. you might save your self some time sitting in traffic over the bridge. so we'll keep you up sedated on that crash. meantime heavy congestion all way around of course we're dealing with slick roadways in hillsborough southbound look near bearss. we basically have traffic completely stopped, backed up basically all the way from taking 75 minutes, this is 75 minutes of a drive, that's very, very unusual. 75 to i-4 taking 275 southbound, also heavy delays southbound 7532 minutes to 75 to i-4. standing water reports northbound 275 looking very slow here in near one 75. inside left and center lanes are going to be blocked here you've an advisory ma

will finish with scattered late day storms. rain chances 40 to 50 percent >> thanks, dave. >> if you're just joining we had two bigger crashes that we're following with a delays one in hillsborough, one in pinellas, good news for folks tlavrlg along 75 northbound starting to congestion thin out earlier crash is now on shoulder it was blocking a right lane approaching i-4 but it seems to as i mentioned before start to look at lot better in the area. still dealing with some delays though. it's about average which isn't terrible considering there a crash there blocking up some the travel lanes in that northbound direction. so i go ahead and maybe plan extra time if you have to head way, no need for work around this point. 301 is starting to look a bit congested a that point. to pinellas from here an earl wreck along southbound 19. this area of bellair road. it does appear to have an involve a motorcyclist abuse we do have motorcycle there on at shoulder. everything else is on shoulder but it's still slowing down backing up to beyond that point all way to main straight. so that's a pretty n

lindsay. she's in for dave. >>lindsay: sunrise and it is a beauty this morning because we have fewer clouds but enough that we can see the sun kind of flirting with the layers. great view over downtown tampa despite the fact it's 80 degrees and extra steamy. if you're boating this morning, lighter east wind. with that east wind, very muggy from atlantic moisture. 78 sebring, good morning to you. i have 79 leesburg. 81 now in clearwater and 79 in sarasota. fewer clouds to start out the day but hints of some shallow low cloud cover. not lasting long. radar is quiet because every wind arrows light out of the east. sprinkles give way to midday showers well inland. 9:00, look at the heat. 84. we're going to hit 92 at 5:00 p.m. and that includes a 50% rain chance in the coastal areas. chances for rain go down by the weekend and chances for where the rain starts first switches a little bit. we'll discuss more detail coming up. right now, here's vanessa who is tracking the roads. how is it going? >>vanessa: busier for sure. we'll start out with the biggest slowdown due to a crash. this is ca

breaks. if dave. dave osterberg erg beggar this morning showing a solid. and working its way over the coastal areas. now you're sta and more breaks throughout pinellas county. hillsborough county, and points north. starting to watch more of the activity, shift further inland. that's where worry going to tend to see the stronger thunderstorms as we go through the afternoon hours. right now the heaviest rain from say about riverview stretching through southeastern hillsborough county, up into central and northern polk county. along i-4 heading up towards orlando then heavy rain right through the middle of manatee sarasota. so if you're going to be driving along i-75, down in that area you're basically looking some torrential rain and lighter amounts as you work your way further and further to the south. again more moisture and rain into the gulf of mexico. but a lot of that activity kind of drying up some. so don't necessarily expect to see a lot of this large rain band working its way over us. but we will start to see more scattered showers as we go through the afternoon. rainfall tota
