the investigation. eagles beat the bills and sent frustrated shady back to buffalo. today is monday, december 14th, i'm erika von tiehl. we check in with katie and prior a. i know you both ran into the fog coming in. and giving yourself extra time? >> yes, absolutely, visibility definitely an issue this morning, and i can tell you we've seen string every accidents on the roadways because of t katie, were you saying this would last throughout the entire morning commute? >> easily yes. we do have dense fog advisory region wide, lasts us right up until 10:00 a.m. i'm out on the skydeck, six stories up, you can't even see the center city skyline, but i'm guessing where i can actually make out the headlights, it might be about quarter of a mile, third of a mile, so it is very, very low-lying cloud cover, and very thick. what do you have kind in mind here, flying down the highway, not going to be good news if you can't see few car lengths

ahead of you. please be careful out there. meisha will have all of those pieces of information for you, but let's give you sense every what's going on here today. so, this is very early fall like pattern. you know, we've got lots of moisture in place. we've got light wind. also lots of nice mild air to help sort of allow this fog to form. at the moment, no rain in site. but yes, that visibility is poor. there is a lot of moisture in the air. so i actually had couple of little sprinkles on my own dashboard as i drove in this morning. so, if you get that on the windshield, don't be shocked by. that will just all of the moisture in place. but the rain itself holds off until later. meanwhile, i-95, it is rough stuff. under half mile. it has been that way since we went on the air at 4:30. and i don't think it will get much better until at least a hour or two after the sun's come up. that will be a while. meanwhile rain on the way for later on, i would say the window of the arrival, probably five p.m. to 6:00 p.m. or so. so poor visibility, both commutes affected still mild as we are still in the 50's, but quickly as we check our

three day forecast, that starts to get scratched as we are back in the 50's behind this front. that is bringing us this very wacky weather for a monday. meisha? >> katie, yes, temperatures are up, certainly the visibility issues with the fog is going to cause us some problems t already has. this is live shot of faith al accident in tinicum township this morning. delaware county, this is just past the airport, 95 southbound before route 420. you can see this vehicle is flipped onto its roof. two vehicles hit, head on, flipping one, as you can see, onto its roof. crews are out there trying to get this cleared up. one lane is now open. you can see them actually out there really trying get this ought of your way, because what happens even up on the roadways, in the roads, getting all of the flashing lights from the crews there. if we can take the picture from the roadways, i would love to show that 95 south before route 420 you can see the string every vehicles, but all the way off, left side of your screen, see the flashing lights, get the gaper delay, as well.

so even though the vehicle on it roof is all the way out into the grassy lands, you can see, up on the street ways, roadways, interstate,ing it going to be slow moving. the schuylkill headlights moving in the eastbound direction at the boulevard. very hazy, very difficult to see, and because that far, seeing some accidents here, as one of them in telford, closed before brant road. use alternate, county line road. erika, back over to you. >> thank i, more on the deadly accident meisha mentioned, one person killed when two cars collided in the thick fog. this is just after 3:00 this morning on i-95 in tinicum township. the force of the crash caused one car to flip over. once again two southbound lanes shutdown right now near the wanamaker avenue exit. >> police are looking for clues that will lead them to a gunman in a west philadelphia shooting, both victims are 17. one is dead.

freddie gray suffer a fatal neck injury, and whether and how quickly porter tried to get him medical help. the jury had way those questions as they consider the charges against porter, involuntary manslaughter, second agree assault, misconduct in office, and wreckless endangerment. andrew spencer, cbs-3, "eyewitness news". coming up after the break, why president obama is paying a rare visit to the pentagon today. also, dog owners listen up. new dog flu strain is raising vaccine questions. what you need to know to keep your best friend healthy. >> and, katie, we know that nice weather had to come to an end at some point. >> at some point, yes. nice weather going by the wayside. nice weather not giving it up just yet. eventually though we return to, how about this, seasonable conditions. lot to cover. fog, rain, dropping temperatures, we will do all of that for you coming up.

deadly for some dogs. >> this type of the virus, the h3n2, progressed so quickly it eventually moved into their lungs causing severe pneumonia. >> the united states company of ago has conditionally approved new vaccine to address the epidemic, being shipped to veterinarians right now. doctor douglas aspro, former president of the american vet near association. >> totally novel virus, so dogs don't have, the us dogs, don't have any historical experience with this virus, therefore, they have no protective cross reaction with any other antibodies that they've formed in the past. >> since the epidemic began, more than 1500 dogs became ill in a few months. at least eight died from secondary infections. the strain has now spread across the country. >> the new strain is different from the common dog flu, which already has effective vaccine available n some cases two

vaccinations might be necessary. the old shot can cost up to $90 for two rounds. the vaccine for the new strain costs double that. if your dog is in close contact with other dogs, very frequently, that's extremely important to be thinking, and about and talking to your veterinarian about doing this vaccine series. >> veterinarians don't yet know howie negative the new vaccine will be. they hope that down the road a shot will be developed that covers both strains of flu. for now, check with your vet to see how common each flu is in your area. if your dog never leaves the yard, you're probably safe. marlie hall, cbs news, new york. coming up until the next half hour of "eyewitness news", shady coy's return to philadelphia is not what he was hoping for. he threw his helmet in the tunnel, yes, lost to the eagles, and it was a big win too. pal gratten joins us to break it all down, coming up in a moment. also, big change in the polls.

right lanes are now open. they were blocked. now they are now open. you can see, it is just going to get some of the gaper delay because of the flashing lights pulled all the way off to the right. right now in this area looking a lot better than it did even 15, 20 minutes ago. area looking very busy right now, in new jersey, 42 freeway northbound at creek road, all the way up to 295, very, very slow, a lot of people getting out of their homes, getting on the roadways early this morning, because you will be driving slower today. visibilities, that fog, is going to pose some problems for you. blue route headlight northbound direction past route one, also looking very busy right now, as we push through the 6:00 hour. ninety-five north, overnight construction, eight p.m. to 5:00 a.m. this runs through saturday, the cottman off ramp closed, some of you will be directed to academy road, one lane blocked, bridge street, to cottman, and also, an accident in telford forward, south allentown road closed before brant road, use that alternate of county line road. erika, back over to you. >> meisha, a thank you. 6:33, what a roller coaster season, the eagles are once

again flying high, after another big win. eyewitness sports, pat gallen joining us now, we got your ticket to the game of course in the last hour, now focusing on lesean mccoy's return, because he was really -- >> talking smack going into this game. really, he didn't back it up. which is good thing. >> there go. >> each eagles game this year has provided its own unique brand of weirds necessary, sunday against the bills, with no different. whether it be shady's homecoming, the 15 bills penalties, or the odd officiating, did not lack for story line. so let's breakdown some of the important things from yesterday's 23-20 eagles win. let's begin of course with lesean mccoy. before the game, he shared hug with owner jeffrey lurie, shared kiss turf mid field. but did not shake hands shake with chip kelly. started off going well with 63-yard before the half, eagles defense clamps down, and frustrated him for the tune every just 11 yards, in

the second half. cox should be give answer lot of credit for. that will we will talk about him shortly, from shady to sam. sam bradford's solid performance. bradford's numbers not eye popping. he was 23 of 38 for 247 yards. one touchdown one interception. really wasn't his fault. that will there was a beautiful strike to nelson agholor for 53 yards. bradford is seldom spectacular, but he is efficient. he's not making the same mistakes he made earlier in the year. while getting better it is still heart to envision him of quarterback of the future, although buying himself some time. sam said they were able to block out the criticism these last two weeks. >> you know, i know there has been a loft noise from outside the building specially after the thanksgiving day game. but, you know it, doesn't seem to affect us. i think everyone did great job, with just staying focused, not letting any of that, you know, add anything extra to the game. >> bills quarterback tailor has been fantastic this year, he had not thrown an

interception since week four, but that changed on the final drive, as ed reynolds pick him off to seal the game. if you don't know reynolds, that's because he spent all of last year and most of this year on the practice squad. malcolm jen since said he felt this one coming. >> you know, we sat down, i think it was tuesday, earlier in the week, you know, i told them, and i know told him all week, you got a chance to get an interception, if they try to throw it deep, you know, sometimes they have that habit of staring at the quarterback, and you have the opportunity you have the depth and leverage to go get a football. >> so with three games remaining, how can the birds get to the playoffs? well if the eagles win out, they'll finish nine and seven and win the division. however, if they lose next week, to the arizona cardinals, who are one and two -- 11 and two, very good team, could possibly still get in at eight and eight with wins over the redskins and the giants. >> at love of if's. >> that's good thing, but we shall see. but now, we get -- >> oh, we love this.

>> all right, our fake paper game ball t goes to flexor cox. he was awesome. eight tackles, two for a lost, one sack, just a fantastic showing, once again, by the big guy in the middle. he shutdown and made it miserable for shady mccoy. so he gets our ball, fletcher, come pick it up. >> exactly. >> and everyone loving chip kelly again. >> isn't that weird? >> funny how when you lose, get him out of town, now, look. pat, thank you so much. so is it time now to give chip kel a second chance? >> i thought it was a great game. you snow absolutely, chip kelly, he's a genius. >> were you staying a few weeks snag. >> , no i wasn't staying a few weeks ago. as long as we beat dallas, everything is better in the whole year long. >> i think they'll win the division. redskins can't do it. >> the giants will lose. ya. eagles got this. >> so what do you think? will the eagles make the playoffs? connect with us on facebook and twitter and make your voice heard. use the #cbs3, we low love to
