@he wants to dissolve the police @department partner with madison @township full time. @he says that would save @$100,000. @some residents are concerned @worth what the changes could @mean. @>> my certain is -- my concern @is that the township if they @merge is way by the lake which @is i'm guessing 4 @miles away. @which would take some time if @we place a call. @>> reporter: we weren't able to @reach the mayor or police chief @but we're going to continue to @follow this @story. @ a lorain man under arrest @for shooting a dog several @times. @the morning journal reports it @started with an argument over a @5-dollar bet in a card game. @31-year-old man is accused of @firing several shots at the dog @inside its cage. @then threatening other people @with the gun. @the dog had to be put down. @johnson is in the lorain city @jail. @ officials continue to @investigate a deadly crash @yesterday morning. @brooklyn police say it happened

@the former president is also @hoping to bolster support in @south carolina where he won 53% @2000. @>> police in the san francisco @area are asking for the @public's help after two people @walking on the golden @gate bridge were hit with blow @darts. @they were struck in the leg on @friday afternoon. @the darts are being tested to @make sure they were not coated @in chemicals. @and the search continues for @the suspect. @california coastline. @a man was strand on a reef and @the cliff was just too steep to @climb. @lifeguards had to swim through @the rough waters to reach him @and then use a crane to lift @him up. @lifeguards in california say @weekend. @ so a lot of us can say @we've been late to work. @some of you maybe even skippedy @day but a 69-year-old spanish

@stealing your money. @>> it's money monday. @most of us have credit cards @but are you taking advantage of @them. @easy move you can take to help @build your credit. @>> we have some wintry weather @moving through. @some light snow showers and @yes, we'll see the ouch tonight @for some sunshine a -- see the @opportunity for @some sunshine a little bit @later and warmer temperatures

@ @ this morning we're helping @you get smart when it comes to @your credit and financial plan @ter is here and @you say it's as easy as three @steps. @step one. @>> step one is to keep an eye @out for warning signs.

@able to pay off your credit @card every month, you're @juggling, just to make the @minimum payments. @are you getting behind the @curve. @ check your credit report @you can do this for free. @>> yes, you can you want to @check it once a year. @www.annual credit report.com is @a free site you can go to where @the three agencies, one of them @will happily @provide you with that. @ grow your credit score. @>> make certain that you're @only charging what you can pay @off every month. @you want to be able to pay it @off continue to grow that @payment history and two, over @time try to extend the @amount you have available in @credit make certain you're @paying that off. @ a lot of people think i'm @going to cut out all my credit @card that doesn't necessarily @help. @your credit score is based on @history the amount of time you @have your credit outstanding. @ thank you so much. @ and we've just started tax @season and already the irs is @dealing with an job slaught of @fraudulent tax returns.

@traced back to last year's @security breaches where @millions of social security @numbers were stolen they use @the number to file a fake @return. @the irs says there's more @security this year to detect a @real return from a fake one. @they'll also saying if you're @looking for a refund because of @this extra security it will @take a few days longer. @i think we'd rather be safer. @ well, kids are out of @school today for this @president's day. @olga, lot of kid want to go @sledding going to warm up, @though, huh? @>> not quite as brutally cold @as we were for saturday and @sunday but today for @president's day i think we're @going to keep it quite close to @the freezing mark. @but things are going to be @changing in the extended @forecast. @ right now we have winter @weather advisories across much @of the middle south right now. @we're going to see a little bit @of action mainly across the @southern counties and off @toward the east as this @system passes through. @but for most of us this morning

@snow falling right now. @the temperatures are chilly. @although many locations have @pushed out of the teens and @close to 20 degrees still @feeling like single digits @across much of the region. @but with the south and @southeasterly wind moving in, @we're going to see some @improvements to the forecast. @at least a bit of a warmup over @the next couple days. @so the morning scattered snow @showers will be coming to an @end. @watch for a second round of @snow moving in. @we have more of an opportunity @to get some accumulation with @that one. @and then the warmup later on @this week and into the weekend @looking pretty good. @so if you're stepping out @bundle up. @temperatures are in the 20 for @most of the morning. @then we'll pass that freezing @mark midday. @hold off on some of st. snow @flurries and bring back a @chance later on tonight. @future view breaks it down this @way. @6:00 doesn't look too bad. @warm front, moisture will bring

@that midnight hour and into @tuesday morning. @depending upon track, this @could be all snow, and for some @could even pass to the east and @could be smaller @accumulations but right now @we're going with anywhere @between one and 4 inches by @wednesday morning. @so for most of us getting back @into the routine temperatures @should stabilize pretty @seasonable levels. @so for today we're look at a @forecast that takes us to the @middle range to upper 30s by @late day. @then looking at the extended @forecast with the southerly @wind to pull in a little bit @more moisture but i @think we'll hold off on the @rain opportunity until we get @to friday. @look at the 40s moving in. @once we hit the 40s i think @it's going to look like a @pretty decent weekend. @ we're looking ate pretty @good commute.

@we take a look to the south and @77, u.s. 30, 62 they all look @great. @route8 looks great between the @central interchange and 271 all @the way through no problems @north and south. @be prepared for wet roads to @the north because of those snow @showers. @here's the picture on i-90 at @columbia road and westlake @where it's a quiet commute. @everyone getting by just fine. @here's the picture on 71 at rin @road where again slick driving @conditions but again, it's a @pretty good @commute heading into downtown @from the west. @on 71 north between 480 and @490, 8 minutes. @so john, we do have normal @drive times throughout the @region. @ it is 65:00. @time for the biggest winners @and losers. @something a little different @with this being random acts of @kindness my biggest winners @community. @>> but first my biggest loser @could use a lesson on kindness. @happened over the weekend

@fighting for the ball going to @let the frustration get the @best of him. @right there he's going to take @the player and slam his head to @the court. @that's brown of wisconsin and @that hurt. @stone was just given a @technical foul. @that's not being a good sport. @by the way diamond stone is a @wisconsin native. @yeah, watch this again. @going to push his head to the @court. @stone's team fitting they lost @by 13 points. @ here we go. @my biggest winners are two @classrooms from brokesville @broad view heights fourth grade @and the kids work the together @to collect donations for the @homeless. @they were collected by @cleveland police officers. @the officers will then make @sure the donations get into the @right hands. @the effort was led by two @brothers. @jack and alex who are in the @two classrooms. @so how about that? @great job of leadership and the @kid spread kindness to people @they don't even know.

@and thanks to brandy for @sending in the picture and this @wonderful story. @ if you'd like to nominate @your champion or all star send @me the picture and story. @e-mail us, or tweet them to me @at john wkyc another act of @kindness will be honored @tomorrow for biggest @winners. @>> that's so great to hear. @>> we can all learn a lesson @from you today. @>> great job to their parents, @too. @>> yes. @ time now 6:17. @a battle is brewing over who @will replace supreme court @justice antonin scalia. @>> we take you live to @washington for a look at why @some say president obama should @not make that decision. @>> weather out your window, @this was taken at brandy wine @thanks to don. @look at all the people there, @they're having a great night.

@ @ teachers may not like it, @but chatting in class could @actually be gad for students. @a new study of college students @showed that when they talk to @their peers more during classes @they felt a @greater sense of belonging and @the mr. they chatted the more @they enjoyed the class. @>> let's talk about this one. @ expect more fallout from @the u unexpected death of @supreme court justice antonin @scalia. @republicans are insisting that @president barack obama hold off @and let the next president name @a successor. @>> but we're already hearing @some of the names that -- who @the replacement could be. @tracie potts following the @developments this morning from @washington. @>> reporter: we're going to @show you some of those possible @replacements but this is really

@between the president and @republicans. @already replacing scalia could @tilt the balance of this court @and republicans are concerned @about that because there are @still some key issues @outstanding. @>> i plan to fulfill my @constitutional responsibilities @to nominate a successor. @>> reporter: the white house @says that won't happen this @week while congress is on break @but with flags at @half staff we're already seeing @possible candidates mentioned @to replace justice antonin @scalia. @>> that's his prerogative he @has every right to do it. @>> that's his prerogative but @we don't have to confirm him @and we won't. @>> reporter: they're in the @midlands of the term and more @cases to hear between now and @without conservative scalia @cases could end up in a tie t @funding no parental @conservative person. @>> reporter: dem cats insist @the country should not have to @wait nearly a year for the next @decide.

@he was elected. @he has the right to nominate @another supreme court justice. @>> i don't think the public @will look kindly on republican @actions to try to thwart what @he is supposed to be able to @do. @>> reporter: now, t republicans @not only battling the president @they're battling each other, @too. @this brand new ad out by ted @cruz he's running it in south @carolina. @and in this ad he argues that @iffy lect donald trump can't be @trusted to select the next @supreme court justice because @he believes donald trump's @record is too close to clinton @and sanders and the democrats. @>> the fighting is going to get @fierce. @you know, i'm also reminded @that justice david souder @became more liberal over time @so you never really know @what you're really going to @get. @but let's talk about the @possible nominees on both sides @of the party who are they? @>> reporter: well, for example, @sri srinivasan and he is on the

@yorker called @him a nominee in waiting. @previously unanimously @confirmed by this republican @senate two years ago. @so that's the one who they @think they might be able to get @through. @there are others who have had @republican support on that @court and others. @for example, paul watt out of @california. @the california judge is african- @american. @there is a woman, so clearly @they're looking atdy vessity @here. @but you brought u up a really @good point for people who don't @have much of a record, @sometimes that can be @tricky because they can't @really get a sense of whether @they're leaning more liberal or @conservative and as @you noted souder was one of @those. @>> fascinating to watch. @ pope francis continues his @trip in mexico today. @he visits a southern part of @the country. @but yesterday he celebrated @mass for hundreds of thousands

@mexico city. @the pope spoke out against the @drug trade and associated @violence. @it's essential -- it's a @central theme t. francis also @kissed and blessed dozens of @sick children at a @pediatric hospital. @ one trend continues for @another year. @women are better at trading @stocks than men. @>> the info here from an online @investment advisor says men @make more trades s they open @themselves up to more risk and @higher fees. @now, when you look at the total @picture men trade by about 30% @more than women. @guys, the ladies are making @more money. @[laughter] @>> per average. @>> he said it. @ all right. @olga says we're going to -- @>> i would like you to look at @my 40 1k. @ coal ga has a warmup i @think we're looking forward to @this. @ absolutely we have a @national forecast that looks @pretty good for the middle of @february.

@west you get a really good @break. @70s and 80s going across the @desert southwest into southern @california. @but there are a few trouble @spots. @>> mainly around the mid- @portion of the nation overcast @skies for chicago. @storm system moving through the @carolinas and up into the mid- @atlantic but the temperatures @are not too bad. @at least for now. @things will be changing. @ coming up at 6:30 if your @plans have you traveling on the @ohio turnpike there are some @changes happening. @why you'll want to make sure @you have cash with you beer you @hit the road. @>> we are following developing @news in the morning news feed. @this the second former nazi @guard is reportedly dead. @and a new mexico rental car @company back open after @suspected bomb was found @underneath a car.

@temperatures across the region @this morning. @ not quite as cold as @saturday and sunday but it is @still quite chilly. @light snow moving through. @you can see that on the @satellite view. @most of that is lifting up @toward the north and off toward @the east. @but we'll continue to see a @little bit of that light snow. @going into the 10:00 a.m. @hour. @then midday we'll start to @clear things out a little bit. @the chilly temperatures are @going to stick around. @>> take us a while to get to @the freezing point. @>> round about 12:00, 1:00. @>> then into the afternoon it @looks like we'll see a little @bit of an improvement. @the weather planner takes the @temperatures out of the 20s and @30s later on @today. @ we'll take a look at the @traffic map at this time. @6:32 we do have an accident @near the university of akron on @allen street at east exchange @street. @no reports of road closures so @driving around that area.

@at the rest of the traffic map. @for those of you unfortunately, @you do have to go to work this @morning we don't see any big @delays. @i was tracking slow traffic on @the turnpike east. @in north and as you can see @those drive times are fairly @normal turnpike east and west. @we were tracking slow traffic @71 north into the interbelt @bridge. @typically where we start seeing @the slowing at this time of day @b. between the turnpike and 490 @on 71 it's 14 @minutes headed north and 15 @minutes headed south. @so those are normal drive @tiles. @when crew hit the roads tune in @to wtan, 1100 total traffic @they'll have updates for you @every 10 minutes. @ also on the road while odot @has been on snow duty @construction season is just @around the corner. @>> this morning tiffany tarpley @joins us lye with a run odot's @six biggest projects for this @year, hi tiffany.

@o crews are still working on @the detours. @okay, lets get to the third @thing on the list. @the opportunity corridor. @creating a boulevard that will @connect 490 at east 55th to @university circle. @this year there will be more @restrictions and closures along @east 105th street between @quebec and chester. @>> the time lines for those, @still being worked out. @>> reporter: so as you see @there a lot of changes ahead @here in 2016. @i did say there was six @projects so coming up i'll have @a list of three more that are @just getting started @this year. @live here in cleveland, tiffany @tarpley channel 3 news. @ now, to youngstown where @two escape ease from a mental @hospital. @two men attack two staff @members then escaped in a @stolen car. @22-year-old degenerative young @was at the hospital in @connection with attempted
