temperatures are tricky tomorrow especially because it depends how much sun we see. here is what i am talking about. looking at futureview, temperatures tonight in the 50s through most of the evening and by the time we get to tomorrow morning it looks like 40s inland and around 50 along the lakeshore. i only have us dropping to 52 and unseasonally warm. some light showers around and mainly this evening akron-canton and i have you dropping to 49 for an overnight low. light showers. futureview going aggressive tomorrow. 10:00 a.m. well in the 50s if not 60s and 1:00 in the afternoon it has mid to upper 60s to around 70 late day. we will see what happens. i am forecasting a little more cloud cover. that's why i have us at 61. if we happen to see more

we could easily sneak up to around 70. i definitely have that on wednesday. the record high in cleveland wednesday is 73. i think we will be around that. in fact, as the wind picks up more out of the south thursday and showers in the forecast, 76 the high on thursday. that's the warmest day i have. on friday we have a front dropping through and wind shifting off the lake. we will see a fall in temperature. that and i have rain and storms in the forecast. the better opportunity of rain and thunder will come friday and into the day on saturday here. it could be a wet day on saturday. upper 60s. some showers even saturday night and sunday a few morning showers and cooler 53. fyi, this is the weekend we turn the clocks ahead an hour. make sure you do that before you go to bed saturday night.

a guess of what michigan has quite a few of. it was a fiesty democratic debate. >> excuse me. i'm talking. >> if you are going to talk tell the whole story 55-42 with hillary in the lead over bernie sanders and the vermont senator is about turnout. >> if there's a large turnout we will win here in michigan. >> sanders isn't the only one hoping for a last-minute surge. the poll shows a familiar story for republicans with donald trump leading by double-digits. >> i swear i will vote for donald trump next week. i swear. place. only this time it is between ted cruz and john kasich who spent a lot of time in michigan. >> it is not just the whole country watching michigan.

>> cruz knows the best chance of catching trump is a one-on-one race after victories in maine and kansas he alluded to just that. >> if we are divided donald wins. >> a not so subtle message to rubio supporters as he desperately needs a win in his home state and it won't be easy. people have been voting weeks and weeks and we have had a million votes cast and a lot of votes came and seem to be on trump's side. that's an obstacle for marco rubio. >> reporter: there are a handful of states voting tomorrow. republicans and democrats in michigan and also in mississippi and republicans will be casting votes in hawaii and idaho. dan, denise? >> denise: diane, i understand there are new numbers out of florida and not good news for marco rubio. tell us about that. >> it is not encouraging news

for the florida senator. this brand new poll comes out showing donald trump is leading 38 to 30% and believe most those who cast early votes early voted for marco rubio and people making their mind up may be leaning towards donald trump. they say head to head trump would beat marco rubio in florida 47-45 and there's a margin of error in this. effectively it could be about even there. that's not what the florida senator wants to hear and something marco rubio has been hanging basically most of his campaign at this point. florida is different from a lot of states and that's winner take all on tuesday. 99 delegates go to the winner of the state. >> dan: speaking of winner take all, ohio is in the group. 66 delegates and finally seeing it is our turn and candidates are booking their events and coming to ohio.

speaking of winning your own state, does kasich have a chance to win not just ohio. if he doesn't win in ohio that's pretty much it for the governor, correct? >> he sort of said almost as much and said he might have to take a look at things if he doesn't take ohio. winner take all. you are seeing the ads on tv and you know because they are having events to get your vote and john kasich going back and forth and every speech he invokes ohio and even in michigan he constantly talks about his state and neighboring state and used ohio quite a bit for his platform and donald trump continues to lead. john kasich is seen as maybe having a better chance of winning ohio than marco rubio may have in winning florida with the new numbers. >> it is something both the candidates talked about their home states because of winner take all. both states mean a lot in the

>> all right, diane gallagher thanks for the time in washington, d.c. it will be an interesting couple of weeks. >> denise: it sure is. >> dan: denying coverage of campaign 2016. download our free app for the latest updates on the go. >> denise: joint military drills with the u.s. and south korea got underway today and north korea is threatening nuclear action. north korea says it will launch responding to what it considers aggression on the part of its enemies. state media quotes a national defense spokesman saying the strike would show the country's military power. >> meantime british police are preparing for what they calle norm us and spectacular terror attacks on the u.k. that's according to britain senior counter-terrorism officer. the current threat level for international terrorism in the u.k. remains severe meaning an

attack is highly likely. >> dan: this is interesting. two volunteer firefighters in virginia were suspended after they chose to drive a toddler to the hospital in their fire truck. firefighters were first to arrive when called to a location near mcdonald's in fredericksburg last saturday because the child was having a seizure. after learning it would be at least 10 to 15 minutes before an ambulance could get there they decided to take the child to the hospital themselves. >> the child when we found her she was sigh knotic, blue from the chest line up and doesn't mean she has oxygen to the upper part of her body. she was put on oxygen in the fire engine and in the trauma room within 13 minutes and because the fire truck is considered nontransport unit both firefighters were suspended. >> denise: incredible. >> a lorain police officer on dog duty catching hundreds of strays and even reuniting some

problem didn't go away. the officer says last year he caught more than 500 stray dogs and took them to the county kennel and he uses social media to try to reunite strays with owners. most of the dogs aren't licensed, like this one we picked up in an alley, the officer recognizes the dog. >> is that him? >> that is him. >> is he loose? >> he might be. he is. a neighbor called police and said this dog has been running loose for months and she's had it. >> seeing this poor dog it breaks my heart to see them not being taken care of. this dog has a chain on it. where are the owners. why isn't the owner aware of the fact their dog is missing? >> the officer can usually catch the dog without tranquilize and after a chase he finally caught this one with a leash. >> is he under arrest?

trotting without a license. >> now he will take the dog to a temporary shelter until the dog warden picks him up hoping his owner and others get the memo. >> the officer feels his efforts are working. there's a 30% decrease in calls in the last month and there are still a lot of stray dogs out there. >> that was somebody's pet at some time. >> beautiful dog and had a chain. he had to take it in. that. >> can you imagine? >> crazy. thank you. the hudson fire department's job isn't always about fighting fires. last month, firefighters were called to a home for a dog stuck in a furnace vent pipe. can you see it there? it is so tiny. they had to dismantle several duct pipes to get to tina, a
