crash. wesh 2 is live at the scene. the good news is it's not impacting the water in that area. alex: that is very good news here for people in the area, including the double tree hotel across the street. if you take a look at that blue pipe structure that you're seeing across i drive from us, that is the pipe that was hit. i talked to a field tech for the county who tells me that is a water meter that serves the double tree hotel. but their water is not disrupted and was not at any time because they also get water from another street on the other side. you can still see a little bit of water, some puddling on i drive but it is a much better picture than a few hours ago. the crash happened around 3:30 this morning. a trooper told me the driver, a 29-year-old orlando resident, is being cited for this, for careless driving and driving on a suspended license without knowledge, which means, he says, that she didn't

michelle: 6:42 on your friday morning. starting things off cooler in central florida but at least we don't have the wind we had yesterday. jason: it's helping a lot but you still need the jacket. amy: it is a little chilly by my standards. 48 in orlando, 44 daytona beach. ocala at 45. we dropped a couple degrees colder than that a few hours ago. a little cloud cover moved in so that kept us a bit warmer in ocala and the temperature has gone up. you can see the winds definitely lighter today

it is not as breezy. yes, we have a little bit of a wind chill but it's not as significant as yesterday. it feels like temperatures, 42 daytona beach. 40 is the wind chill in palm coast. 44 in melbourne. we've got a lot of sun today. there will be a couple clouds here and there but mostly sunny. temperatures will climb with all the sun but we're going to keep cool air coming in so we'll only top out in the low to mid 60's this afternoon. and that is pretty close to where we were yesterday. a couple of spots will be a degree or two cooler today than we were yesterday. we'll talk more about the cold air continuing to filter in overnight tonight and how much colder we'll be even tomorrow morning, when i come back inside in a few minutes. right now we want to get a traffic update. ted: good friday morning. the chopper is up flying east along i-4. they have flown west from lake mary down to the beach line and now they're heading through the area, they passed the turnpike in kirkman. eastbound looking pretty good.

into downtown orlando still looking good. from the turnpike to colonial is about 8 minutes. westbound on the left crossing over the saint john's river bridge, traffic a bit heavy from enterprise to 1792. a look at i-4 west between 434 and 436 in seminole, not too bad but once you arrive in altamonte you will hit brakes. a lot of westbound congestion is making its way from altamonte into maitland. jason: a unique gun range will open today in daytona beach. michelle: it got plenty of people talking before it was approved because alcohol will be served feet from target practice. we have a look at volusia top gun. we've got booze and bullets under the same roof. it is a controversial business plan but it was approved and today they will cut the ribbon on the doors. the indoor gun range attached to a restaurant

where i-95 and international speedway boulevard meet. volusia top gun was approved by city leaders last summer in a 5-1 vote. the owner says he has a system in place scanning i.d.'s to prevent a customer who opts to drink from firing a gun. here's what he told them in august when that plan was still in the works. >> it will be posted. it will be known throughout the place. staft will be very well trained -- the staff will be very well trained to make sure everyone is aware of the rules. >> customers can rent guns but if they bring their own it must be locked in their car when they are done shooting. the owner is using technology to scan and i.d. at the bar and then at the range. that's in order to attract customers inside. he's not allowing any guns near that bar area. jason: 6:45. returning to commitment 2016 republican candidates back on the campaign trail after last night's heated debate in texas. michelle: this was the final republican faceoff before super tuesday and the target was on donald trump. >> were you the only person

been fined for hiring people to work on your projects illegally? >> i'm the only one on the stage that's hired people. you haven't hired anybody. michelle: our political analyst is joining us live from washington. mark, thanks for joining us today. is it possible to declare a winner? >> good morning, guys. i think you can. i think the winner was hillary clinton. it's not just because they spent easily ten times more time attacking each other than her, but no one looked presidential last night. donald trump, the overwhelming leader in the polls right now, he called mitt romney, the previous nominee, a fool, the chief justice of the supreme court a disaster. he called ted cruz a liar. these are not the kind of comments that are likely to propel anybody in this race. and i think democrats are loving it. jason: donald trump is doing great in the polls

why is the republican establishment so reduck tant -- reluctant to embrace him. >> two questions. the establishment doesn't believe he can help the ticket in november. they think they can lose the senate and even the house if he's on top of that ticket. but he also doesn't replace republican orthodoxy. last night he talked about how planned parenthood helps millions of women with health issues. he said the world would be better with saddam hussein still in power. those aren't conservative talking points and they are concerned that going forward, there is not anyone that can deliver insults as well as donald trump that the republican party will be branded as the anti-immigrant party of fear and anger. they don't want that. michelle: did rubio do anything to help his case last night? >> he was clearly had his best performance. the same way his terrible performance thee weeks ago didn't destroy his candidacy, this doesn't propel him into the

he needs to win a primary. jason: thanks for your insight. michelle: this morning health officials have new concerns about the zika virus. for the first time the virus is linked to damage outside of the central nervous system. doctors in brazil say they found a case of zika in a severely malformed still born baby. they say the fetus had signs of severe tissue swelling. here at home the latest case was confirmed yesterday in orange county. this makes more than 30 cases identified across the state. >> we're running down the day's top stories next on sunrise. jason: here's a preview from new york. >> coming up on "today" what we're learning about the suspected gunman in that tragic workplace shooting in kansas. we'll hear from victims who were inside that factory. also ahead, marco rubio and ted cruz teaming up on donald trump in the final debate before super tuesday. will it be enough to slow
