open next friday. we don't know about breckenridge yet. highs near 70 across the metro area today, still looking at moderate drought conditions right now. meteorologist becky ditchfield is in the 9news backyard. it could still be a while before we see some moisture that we desperately need. >> at this point it looks like at least a week, if not a little bit more, and the chance of that is pretty small. up in the mountains we'll see a better chance for so. take a look outside where we've got mostly sunny skies and dry weather. as ryan was saying, that puts us under moderate drought conditions along i-25 down to the southeast. the rest of the state with the exception of far northwest colorado is under abnormally dry conditions. so we desperately need the moisture around here. with that said the views have been stunning all across the front range, not a cloud in sight in that picture,

up on the radar screen. all across the state and for that matter across most of the region, a little rain trying to make its way into the pacific northwest, but that is it. at least for our part of the country. we're expected to be dry a while. we're at 65 now near downtown denver, 64 at dia, greeley at 68, 66 in fort collins. the foothills are in the 50s degrees, awfully warm for this time of year. the remainder of the evening clear. if 6 degrees at 6:00, 50 -- 56 degrees at 6:00, 53 at 7:00 and 51 at 8 p.m., a nice mild evening. cool front pushes in then and we get quite a bit cooler tomorrow by about 10 degrees. you'll need a jacket out tomorrow afternoon. then we're right back up to mild temperatures before the bigger changes come next week. we do have at least something to talk about and i'll cover

>> there is always something. we know there is an end in sight for some of the same and the same. >> it's bound to happen at some point. the big question is when? >> we'll be caught off guard and be really upset if we haven't been paying attention. >> talk to you later. today cdot announced a new pilot study to look into the idea of replacing the state's gas tax with pay by mile charge or monthly fee based on how many miles you is here with more on this approach. this could have an impact on every colorado in some way. >> certainly. [ audio difficulties ] >> a road usage -- my mic is not on right now. i'm moving over here. >> come over.

-- >> here, borrow mine. keep talking. >> okay. this means more wear and fair on our roads. >> why not? we're sharing. >> this is what's motivating cdot to look closely at what they're calling a pilot research study written stead of paying the state gas tax 22 cents per mile at the pump each time you fill up drivers would pay a monthly fee for how many miles are traveled. this is not a double tax. it's one replacing the other. this four nt early next month with 100 participants. cdot says it is facing a nearly $1 billion annual funding gap the next 25 years. according to a department spokesman, colorado's current gas tax has become less reliable with the spike in more fuel efficient vehicles and hybrids. they are looking into whether this fee would help close the gap. >> if you have a car that gets gas mileage around 20, 25 miles per hour, you're probably not going to be paying more or it

$1 less depending upon your driving. for people with cars that get less gas mileage than that. they'll probably be seeing money coming back and for the cars that are very fuel efficient, hybrids or all electric, they're going to be paying. >> on cdot's website there's a calculator. you take the make, model and year of your car with the amount of miles you drive and it will show you roughly how much you are with the current gas tax compared to what you would pay with the road usage charm. there's three options to track your mile -- charge. there's three options to track your mileage. you can manually enter the mileage online were on the other is a nongps reporting device and the other is a gps enabled device you plug in your vehicle that can differentiate whether you're driving in or out of the state because out of

for that mileage. there's a lot of questions and still answers to be found in this study. >> this is really long term. so don't panic yet. >> right. there are other states including oregon this have done this program 10 years. it still hasn't been implemented. they're in the process of going through this program. so this could be years in the making and spill a lot to look into. >> i'm -- still a lot to look into. >> i'm glad you sat down, you're so much taller than me i could not have held the microphone up. >> i didn't want to go into my cheerleading days. speaking of transportation, crossing gate issues are causing delays on the a line between dia and union station. rtd says delays are due to crossing issues at york, clayton, steele and dahlia experiencing 20 to 30 minute delays. crews are making repairs. the same issue was to blame for delays yesterday. we expect an update later this

old man is facing charges in a deadly shooting in downtown denver yesterday. his girl friend was questioned and released. investigators say steven wiley fired at two people at the 1600 block of champa street near the 16th street mall. wiley and his girl friend jumped on an rtd to try and get away. cell phone video shows officers with guns drawn stopped in the middle of was killed and the second victim is expected to recover. wiley is held for investigation of first degree murder and assault. police in denver are looking for a man they say forcibly sexually contacted someone in the capitol hill neighborhood last night about 7:00 near the 1200 block of north washington street. police created a sketch of the suspect. if you have information call

torres joins us from nbc in new york. a lot of people are talking about this study, pretty exciting. >> you're right. this will change a lot of things if it works in humans. that's the big question now. some people call it wi-fi for the body because they basically put a computer implant in the brain in the area that controls muscles to the leg. in these monkeys they actually had surgically cut their spinal cord so they couldn't use their leg. it was paralyzed. they put that modul brain. they had a second computer on top of it that got simulations once they started trying to control their own legs. the monkey was trying to move. it went that wirelessly to the spinal cord implant and that sent the message to the spinal cord and manipulated it perfectly so they're able to move the leg. the important part is a couple things. one, they're able to wirelessly move that from the brain to the spinal cord and get past the area where the cut or lesion

way the muscles move like they're supposed to in a coordinated fashion. in one of the monkeys they were able to move after a week and the other one it took them two weeks without any training to be able to move that leg and that's what's extremely important, the coordinate behind the movement. again this is a big break- through and there's no reason it shouldn't work on humans. we just need to make sure it does. that's why they're going a little slow here and it might be a few years before it's long time. i'm hearing wireless and the way they program it, that's kind of the now factor. >> reporter: right. the now wow factor, kind of the sci-fi behind this whole thing is one, the wireless part of it. they aren't having to put wires all the way through body down from the grain to the spinal cord. they -- brain to the spinal cord. they wirelessly transmit the

cord. they had sophisticated enough software to manipulate the spinal cord and the nerves to move the leg in a coordinated fashion. that's extremely important oving the leg won't help anything. you need to move it in a coordinated fashion like when we walk. that's a big important step. again this is one of those things i think if it works in humans, it will be a huge change and help out a lot of people who have become paralyzed whether through a lesion, illness or accident. >> you can't help reeve and so many people that fought this guide fight for years saying we can use today's technology to change so many lives. >> reporter: that's the important part. we're using that technology to change the lives, but it's a slow process. we all would the this to happen tomorrow. it won't happen till 2020 to try and get trials on humans and then a few years before it comes out. so we're still talking a good seven to 10 years, but we're moving in the right direction.

>> seven to 10 years, really that's not all this long. >> yeah. get the human trials going, so many lives could be changed. one mountain town is making it easier to use the vacational rental service airbnb this winter. >> the famous redstone castle has a new owner and they have

restaurants, hotels. distillers say they could barely sell bourbon in the '70s, '80s and '90s. now it's making a huge comeback. it is everywhere. mitchers, america's oldest bourbon brand was founded in pennsylvania. it happened to be near where president washington was camped out with his troops near valley >> we've had very substantial growth growing roughly 50% a year. >> i knew bourbon would come back, but to this extent it's caught everybody off guard. >> bourbon is one piece of us taking a look at the investment. we wouldn't be here just because of bourbon. >> kind of like colorado. you're not here just for beer, but it's a pretty big deal, right? that was developer steve pao. he's not afraid of downtown as he gets ready to fill up the

researchers have developed a new screening test for hiv using electrical signal that can be read by a computer. typically hiv screenings take a few days, but this test produced results in under 35 minutes with 95% accuracy. this test could allow hiv patients to regularly check their virus levels the same as diabetes monitor blood sugar. the study was led by researchers in london. there was a study of people who measure their blood

cardiologists say they may be convenient, but not always so accurate. doctors need reliable information as to what a patient's blood pressure is throughout the day. they look at blood pressure logs from patients to see how much medication to prescribe. many of the home monitors aren't calibrated correctly so they give off a reading that could be way off. >> real dangers are if we believe someone's blood pressure is high when it's not, we might overmedicate them and make them feel worse them at risk for passing out. if their machines suggest their blood pressure is too low, we may take away blood pressure medications and put them at risk for high blood pressures that can increase the risk of stroke and heart attack. >> that doesn't sound good. what about a solution? doctors say patients should bring their monitors into the office so they can be checked for accuracy. when it comes to deciding when blood pressure monitor to buy, don't go for the cheapest one

the middle. untreated high blood pressure is the leading cause of stroke and cardiovascular death. drivers of several large suvs say their gm vehicles are making them sick. owners in several states say they've experienced vertigo, nausea and migraines because of their cars. the national highway traffic safety administration says they've received complaints this year and last year including remarks like severe headaches, experiencing pressure in my ears and makes me nauseous and dizzy. one michan where they bought their 2015 suburban. shortly after they searched the words gm suv making me sick and they found they were not alone. >> when you get in, it's almost like your ears start to hurt after a while. >> it puts a dealership in the middle which is a difficult position because we really value the customer and we value our partnership with the manufacturer as well.

i'd call that a rock and a hard place. the dealership offered the family a similar vehicle. they declined. they just want out of their lease. gm declined a interview, but here is their statement. gm does not bleach this is a safety issue. so we'll see -- believe this is a safety issue. so we'll see. a slight cooldown. >> it was really warm yesterday. them we could see -- then we could see warmer weather this weekend. becky is back with the

scientists are working on homes and supplies that would be needed to survive on mars. a home on display in london

the red planet might look like. the podlike construction has room for a bed, desk with computer, space to grow plants and get your exercise in. it's a lot difference from a typical home here on earth obviously because it's constructed with the harsh conditions of the red planet in mind. >> but it's really a survival center. it will make oxygen for people to breathe and it will supply its own water by sucking in the martian atmosphere about 100% humid most nights and pull out water through a very simple dehumidifier mechanism. you'll have a 3d printer which will make almost everything you need from plates to wrenches, toothbrushes, whatever you need in your life. >> wow. >> home repairs, you'd stay on top of those. >> probably pretty important. >> astronomers say a home like

humans from the extreme cold and radiation on mars. >> i'm fascinated by this. they even put your treadmill in there to keep your calorie count down. someday maybe. no? >> you go test it first, okay? >> throw me under the bus. a little cooler today before warmer weather this weekend. >> yeah. we don't know what planet we're living on right because it's been awfully warm, becky. >> it's been warm and really dry, too. we sound like a broken record. we say this over and over again. we need the rain. we need some snow up in the mountains. we'll get some, but it's going to take a little while before it gets here. let's talk about your forecast. moving forward out there tonight we've got a few clouds on the horizon, a breeze running out here in the 9news

and also greeley, 69 in fort collins, 60s and 70s for our eastern plains, 50s and 60s for the mountains and middle 60s across the western slope. out in the 9news backyard a little breezy, but overall sunny, a beautiful evening, temperatures about 64 degrees, also here outside 9news. across the state just not a lot going on. we're not expecting that much either even with a cool from the that's you can -- cool front that's approaching. you can see not much is happening to our north and west. there is rain impacting far south texas near brownsville with a chance of showers, but we remain very dry. let's look at this forecast across the country. for this point in the middle of november it is very mild all across the lower 48. we'll start you off down through the southeast where temperatures are in the 70s tomorrow through atlanta, low

eastern seaboard where temperatures will be in the 50s and 60s tomorrow afternoon. we'll see temperatures cooler through the upper midwest, minneapolis, chicago upper 40s and low 50s. back here across the inner mountain west very mild conditions, plenty of sunshine and 50s and 60s. seattle will see a few more clouds. we'll see low 60s there, perhaps even a shower or two and then down through los angeles and even into phoenix a lot of sunshine and mp a cool front moving through here will help cool us off as we head into tomorrow. unfortunately it just doesn't bring rain from the western side of colorado all the way to the eastern side. what it will do is cool these temperatures down almost 10 degrees. we're also going to see a little patchy fog develop through early tomorrow morning. that will be the extent of our moisture. heading into tonight we're expecting partly cloudy skies.

get some patchy fog not only developing around here, but it might be particularly dense on our far eastern plains, so burlington, holyoke, julesburg down through lamar we're expecting to see that fog sticking around still about 9:30, 10:00. we'll have high clouds during the day. with the return of sunshine we've got another dry one in store for us and we're expecting still mild temperatures even though they're today. temperatures tomorrow will actually be closer to average than what we've seen around here for a while. 34 your low tonight. we'll drop to 31 near greeley, 34 fort collins. eastern plains will see very chilly temperatures, upper 20s for sterling, lower to middle 30s everywhere else, 20s to 30s for lows in mountains. highs tomorrow middle to upper 50s out there. we're also going to hit the

mountains, middle 60s for the western slope. that's going to be the warm spot across the state toe afternoon. look for clouds to increase tonight. we'll see decreasing wind and as those winds calm down patchy fog will develop through early tomorrow morning. if clears out after 9:30, 10:00. we'll warm into the middle to upper 50s, partly cloudy skies and an easterly breeze at 5 to 10 miles per hour. then we get into the mild weekend. colorado shares, we've got sunshine in the forecast all through the day, temperatures climbing into the lower to middle 60s come sunday, 63 degrees our high it. will be a little bit windy, but no big deal. 68 our high saturday. check out monday and tuesday, middle to upper 70s. next week's forecast, though, does get tricky. we're going to be tracking a potential system that cools us

even brings in the slight possibility for snow here to the denver metro area. at this point it doesn't look like it's much. it would really be a minor event and really more wind than anything else, but there is the potential that we could get a little moisture out of this, certainly for the mountains, mountain areas next thursday into friday looking at a good round of snow for those folks. >> it's funny you mentioned this little bit of snow. my year ago and that's what we started to see a little bit of snow. it's been so warm. it's a wild difference from a year ago. >> it truly is. if we do not get that first snow thursday, it looks like we might, in fact, break the record for latest snow we've ever seen around here. >> at this point let's hang on and break the record.

moisture. >> thank you. we're just a few days away from our big 9cares colorado shares food drive on saturday. >> many colorado early education schools had 11 buses stopping by the food bank of the rockies this morning to drop off loads of donations students and staff collected over the last three weeks. these are preschool and kindergarten students, so they learn this lesson early. it sticks with really small donations into the food bank to volunteers. the students talked to us about the favorite part of making their big donation this morning. >> to make people happy for a better life. >> to see all the people driving the cars. >> reporter: to see all the people driving the cars. what about you? >> to make sure everyone has food for their family.

researchers at the carnegie institution for science and johns hopkins university devel visual aides proving to be pretty important getting students excited about science. a program was developed where live fish were brought into school classrooms of students watched zebra fish embryos develop into swimming larva. after one week researchers found students' knowledge of science improved significantly, especially among elementary school students. the program is currently in 104 schools across the country. >> it makes perfect sense. >> doesn't it? you try to talk about that molecular level of science to an elementary school kid, right

>> researchers at cornell university developed a way to teach veterinarians to care for animals without using real animals about. >> check if he's breathing. >> reporter: these veterinary students are doing whatever they can to save jerry who was clearly in distress. it doesn't look good. they have to resort to cpr. even if jerry doesn't make it through, this emergency scenario, he'll have an chance because jerry is more droid than dog. >> we call him robo jerry 2. >> reporter: robo jerry 2 is the creation of daniel fletcher, part veterinarian, part engineer at cornell university's college of veterinary medicine. the technology is similar to human simulators used in medical schools across the country. robo jerry 2 is unique to cornell and gives veterinary

managing a patient in realtime. >> it's remarkable how much they engage in that process. they tend to get nervous. they get very worked up about it and very emotionally invested. >> reporter: cornell is now designing simulated parts to be used in robo cats and possibly someday robo horses. >> when that real patient comes in looks similar to the case managed in simulation, they're much more likely to jump in because now they feel confident. >> reporter: a confidence that will carry them into >> researchers at cornell say the plan is to share the simulator technology with other veterinary educators across the country. have you ever seen a chuwena? >> once on a petline. >> this is the second one i've ever seen. >> yes.

we've got a sweet cuddly guy for you today on petline 9. our friends at the adams county animal shelter have brought us canello who is a 13-month-old red dachshund chihuahua mix known as a chiu weanie. he would make a great addition to your home. he's lived with other small dogs no issues with handling, but he has an energetic and playful side and needs a little training to learn how to walk on a leash, but if you are a family that could do those things, he would be for you. he loves squeaky toys, but not so great at fetching right now. at this point he is scared of cats but would probably live with a mellow cat so long as that cat is used to dogs. he's only been at the shelter

been adopted. we have need to find canello a good home. he's at the adams county animal shelter and looking for a fantastic home. he is such a sweet little boy. >> i think he's looking for a treat. >> that, too. >> will need extra treats. >> he's cute as all can be. we'll find help a home. >> hopefully he'll get over the fear of cats. >> some people never really do. tomorrow is veterans day. if you're >> the dumb friends league is waiving adoption fees for military members tomorrow. all cat and dog adoptions include spay surgeries, vaccinations, microchip at the quebec street shelter in denver and the buddy center in castle rock. >> that's wonderful. that's a nice thing to do. >> very cool because a lot of those vets like and love their pets.

the transition of the power of the executive branch is underway. president elect donald trump was in washington today. protests of our future president continued across the country in the form of student walkouts, people taking to the streets. today marks 70 days until donald trump's inauguration becoming the 45th president of the united states. he met with president obama at the white house today. president obama said they talked about organizational issues in setting up a white policy. president elect donald trump said he looks forward to dealing with the president, consulting him in the future. the transition between presidents is a major undertaking logistically a massive amount of work that has to happen in the next 10 weeks to hand over the federal government to trump's new administration. politically speaking there's a delicate dance between trump and president obama, two men very much at odds. here's 9news political reporter brandon rittiman. >> okay. well, i just had the
