>>dave: oh, boy. 6:14. here west chase, plant city, brandon in the upper 30s right now. so if you are walking out the door, getting ready to, you know how you have to dress. 41 in new tampa. brooksville at 30. inverness, crystal river, both at 32 degrees. dade city at 38. bushnell at 37. i got right at 50 bradenton,

area. north port is at 36. it's like, wow. wauchula, arcadia, lakeland at 39 and 42 for our friends in frost proof. this is colder than yesterday morning. here's some spots, brooksville is at 15 degrees colder. brandon is at 13 degrees colder. frost proof 10 degrees colder than it was on your sunday morning. i thought it was kind of chilly when i woke up yesterday, but if you think back to yesterday and how fast it warmed up and the same thing is going to happen today. we're just starting off colder so we have more work to do to get it up to the 60s. dew points are incredibly dry in the 20s and lower 30s. it doesn't get that much drier around here. the whole southeast continues to be like this. cloud-free, high pressure in control, sinking air, dry air warms up very fast so even though we're sitting in the 30s

should have no problem getting back to the upper 60s and believe me, a few spots are going to touch 70 degrees for today so that's the good thing. you know when you get a cold nap like this up north, it just doesn't warm up. it stays cold. but for us, we may get the cold starts, the cold, dry starts but with unlimited sunshine again today, we should quickly warm back to the upper 60s. but let's say, for instance, you're travelling to the northeast might want to bring your snow gear. first snow is of the season and it's snowing heavily in syracuse so these lake-effect snows are really cranking up this morning and a few flurries east of boston and south -- east of new york city so it's not a big deal. but winter is really cranked up in the northeast over the past 24 hours. and let's talk tropics for a second. i know what you're saying. what? it's snowing out up to the north. it sure is but we have a

this is central america. okay? and you got the yucatan peninsula up here. it's way down here in the southwestern caribbean and it's not moving much. this will become otto. it has the potential to become a hurricane before making landfall in central america sometime between thursday and friday and then eventually moving out over the eastern pacific. obviously it is not headed toward the gulf. big ridge of high pressure will show you sitting out here, you can always head to myfoxhurricane.com if you want more on soon to be otto. tons of sunshine, cold start, mild finish. 69 for a high temperature. tonight beautiful but quite chilly. it's not. it's going to be cold again. 47 in the tampa area so pretty similar to today. maybe a degree or two warmer. then sunshine for your tuesday and high temperature goes right back up to the mid 70s.

we are on a mission to make it to 80. will it be thanksgiving? the day after? you see how warm it's going to be later this week so we'll bear the cold and then we're good to go. >>vanessa: thank you. 6:18. we have sky fox arriving on scene of the u.s. 19 crash in tarpon springs and you'll recall from previous reports that we reported on the southbound shut down and we can see that's here. very big scene and this is a serious injury crash. this was reported as a trauma alert and so we're seeing all of the southbound lanes blocked and as we are hearing over the phone from authorities, the northbound lanes are reduced to one. so traffic is being diverted. looks like alternate 19, pinellas avenue is the biggest work around here. we'll keep you posted as we learn more information about this crash. out of pinellas county, evans

lanes are blocked. please be careful, plan extra time if possible and then here out of manatee county, state road 64, hearing a possible lane blocks. we have yet to get the final report back from authorities but it doesn't hurt to give yourself extra minutes here as well. >>jennifer: tensions are running high in north dakota as police clash with hundreds protesting the dakota access pipeline. these are pictures from the morton county sheriff's department. 400 cross the bridge and they were forced back. the pipeline is being built to carry oil from north dakota to a shipping point in illinois. construction has been protested by the standing rock sioux whose reservation lies near the pipeline route. >russell: one of the busiest airlines will strike. o'hare in chicago, they're seeking a union rights and $15

wheelchair attendants and they don't plan to shut down the airport only to create skrupgs. they'll announce a start date this morning at 10:00. >>laura: father of an army soldier killed in afghanistan says he and his family were booed as they flew to meet his son's body. john perry was crkilled in bagr this month. perry's fathe son stopped the suicide bomber, likely saving hundreds of lives. they were flying from sacramento to dover air force base when the captain told everyone to remain seated so they could leave first to make their connection. after their announcement, stewart says that several people booed. >> to hear the reaction of the flight being delayed because of a gold star family and the first

upsetting and it made us cry some more. >>jennifer: american airlines said they were honored to have the family on board and made every effort possible to ensure a smoother journey in such difficult circumstances. the perrys say an airport representative stayed with them to make sure they boarded their connecting flight. he will be laid to rest at arlington national cemetery. time is 6:21. buccaneers may as well have been in tallahassee. >>russell: a florida ste another win. hundreds of people waiting in line to meet a celebrity. find out how who or what it was.

>> i had this crazy, weird calmness through the last couple of weeks and even through the race amongst all the chaos we dealt with and the fact we ran like behind those guys all night long, fifth, sixth, whatever we ran, there's just some calmness that was in me. we restart in the 19 rack and i'm like, oh, okay. we have a shot at this thing. i don't know why i've been cards. >>russell: johnson's seventh cup series title ties him with richard petty, dale earnhardt, senior for the most all-time. >>jennifer: willie rogers, long time st. petersburg resident and one of the oldest surviving members of the tuskogee airmen has died.

he was a member of the 100th fighter squadron, one of the original of the group. he was not a pilot which is why he didn't reveal his service until 2012. he worked logistics but that didn't keep him out of danger. roj he weres was wounded in action during a mission in italy in 1943. he spent three months in a hospital before returning to war. he died friday due to complications from a stroke. st. petersburg mayor rick kriseman shared this picture along with the caption, rest in peace, our fr was 101 years old. time is 6:40. it is cold. how cold? we'll check in with dave. he'll have that for us next. >>russell: and pretty cold on the cross bay ferry today. they're offering free rides, though. might as well do it. line up.

>>dave: it is 6:43.

let me tell you, that's like the warmest temperature we have because as you starting to away from the water, first you go to the tampa net cam where it's clear. it's gorgeous. it's 45 degrees. but wait. let's go over to lakeland. there you go. 39 degrees. inland locations, a lot of you in the 30s and as you go further north, you get up to hernando and citrus counties and some temperatures are a this morning so yeah, lower 30s well to the north and to be honest, we're running about 17 to 15 degrees colder than we were on sunday morning. so a big, big difference. we do have clear skies. we have a ton of dry air in place so it's only going to be a matter of time before it warms right back up but still, if you're going to walk out the door in the next few minutes, you're going to need the jackets. dew points in the 20s and 30s this morning. this is very, very dry.

that around here. now, slowly not only the moisture levels modify but the temperatures will as well. by the middle of the week and going into thanksgiving itself, our high temperatures are going to get back close to 80 degrees but we have a cold start. probably the next two or three mornings we'll have the cold starts. however, mild finishes. high pressure in control, light north bunked and temps today should go right back to mainly the upper 60s so today we're going to be below normal but we're going to rebound nicely. come in this morning and i just happen to check the tropics and as soon as i did, they issue a tropical depression 16 out there in the southwest caribbean. it's hard to fathom because you have temperatures in the 30s and the tropics are still active. this will become otto but then drift towards the west and eventually over central america into the eastern pacific so obviously not a bother at all. tward the gulf or toward the

just wanted to point out that it is out there. in the meantime, we're going to go back in the neighborhood of upper 60s for today, maybe somebody inland touches 70 degrees. the air is so dry, we'll have tons of sunshine and a fast warmup. out and about tonight? that's right. take those coats with you because starry skies are coming right back at you. another cold one. i'm going to put 47 for tampa but that means east and north, i easily think back in the 30s and then with a high temperature around 75 degrees. a mild afternoon for tomorrow as well. boaters, once you get past the cold temperature of the morning, you should be fine. north winds 10 to 15 knots. two to four feet, light to moderate chop and high tide about 20 minutes ago so low tide is next at 2:05 this afternoon right through the holiday itself. it gets warmer and warmer.

thanksgiving itself but the weather does look fantastic, though. >>vanessa: thanks, dave. about to switch over to 6:47 and we're still watching this. the lane blocks along u.s. 19 and tarpon springs, no big changes since the last time we reported on this other than i'm assuming we have more vehicles on the road so the southbound delays are going to probably be worse than the last time we saw this. we're looking at the northbound reduction to a single lane and then southbound completely shut do the pickup truck that's spun around with a lot of damage to its side. traffic still being funneled southbound direction through the parking lot. you can see lots of backups already building in the area so continue to use alternate 19. we're seeing the serious injury crash. big delays here. we'll move on, get to updates to this crash in pinellas. evans road at park drive, improvements to the lane blocks.

that's better news for folks travelling in the area. majors look normal as far as the congestion we're seeing. moderate in nature and we'll update you in a couple of minutes on the road conditions. we want to get over to charley right now. >>charley: good day. how are you? >>vanessa: i'm good. look at your jacket. >>charley: yeah. not only am i a florida boy and i get cold when it's 45 degrees outside, but i'm also in an ice rink all so it's a little chilly in here anyway. i've got an interesting today in history before i tell you why i'm at an ice rink this morning. it was this day, november 21, 1877 that was only 139 years ago -- >>vanessa: i'm sorry. russell just interjected. he said, i was there. >>charley: russell was a wee boy. russell was only a child. >>vanessa: not that wee.
