the other says more . the models really are not matching. let's get with ines and find out about traffic. ines: by exit 30, blocking a lane so watch out for that . things are fine on both sides at the bridge and no problems on the freeway. let's check out long island. out near the lie, no issues there. off to a good start. the bqe, in great shape with traffic moving fine. trains are running close to schedule and street cleaning rules are in effect. ben: thank you, ines. attack in pakistan.two of the debtor a professor and a student at the boettcher kong university near the afghan border.

police and army officials exchanged gunfire in several explosions went off. no one has claimed responsibility but we have seen the attacks in the past and i think we know it's isis as a culprit . that's just speculation. the new york times say the television in pakistan was claiming responsibility. we will keep following the reports. juliet: we will get you all the reports as soon as it comes out. ben: dog threats in schools . it forced a lot of kids out in the cold. the fake threats in massachusetts, delaware, other states. it doesn't save any of them are connected. the calls are placed using a robotic voice and software generated numbers.

she brandished her down-home folksy style . >> his power, his passion it's the fabric of america and its woman by work ethic, dreams and drive and faith in the almighty. what a combination!ready to share in the , iowa? >> he says they are the candidates best equipped to fight isis. her endorsement comes as comes to fight off ted cruz. >> i love sarah palin. she is fantastic . without her friendship and support i would not be in the senate today. >> he came out strongly against screws came out saying his opposition to ethanol hurt the states

>> the republicans do get out in iowa in the new poll shows clinton has a steep yield to climb in new hampshire. the cnn survey shows sanders 27 points ahead of her among democratic voters. it's a big loss that could damage who was the presumptive nominee. the palin endorsement came just hours after her son was arrested on domestic violence charges. he spent most of the day arguing with a girlfriend. all the charges he faces our misdemeanors. that's the latest. juliet: thank you, robert.

pending the outcome. juliet: mayor diblasio says the city streets are a lot safer. laster was the safest year for people on the street in a century. in the past two years, and more bike lanes, lowered the speed limit and issued 134,000 speeding tickets. he says that leads to a significant decrease in the number of of people killed . >> a 22% decrease in traffic fatality. 66 more people alive today because the policies change drivers behavior and because it created consequence for reckless drivers. juliet: the mayor had another success last year. once dubbed .

. melissa mark says it's too bad and they must except that the city has the power to do it . teresa has more . theresa: why should we trust mayor diblasio. just when you think the carriage horse issue was put out, think again! >> we belong here. days after bill de blasio worked out a framework here , limiting the industry in new york city, carriage drivers are filing back saying the mayor needs to hold his horses. the plan is to get them out of mintel traffic. relocate some from their current home to a not yet

staple in central park. it reduces them from hundred and 80 95. they say that's that along would stress the current ones. >> he is asking us to reduce the number of licenses and that alone is bad for the horses. in addition to protecting them, it will prohibit pedicabs from operating in the park south of 85th st. they aren't please!>> we have families to feed. the city council has to approve it. melissa says she is happy the framework is in place.

will pass. much. we have a storm coming our way but the temperatures will be above freezing . ben: it's not that bad out there. better than yesterday. juliet: yesterday was brutal! ben: the mayor seizes it's not about hugging trees. it's not about being wasteful either. you just gotta find that balance. takes care of more than just yourself. lease a 2016 lincoln mkz for $289 a month

welcome back. mike: we have an area of low pressure passing to the south and that will not bring us much of the additional cloud cover. it's not as cold or windy . it's on the breezy side but the winds are starting to back down. we are tracking the winter storm that's coming this way for the weeks end. is heading into town on sunday morning. i am more concerned about the snow in the tri-state region in the could be some heavy snow with some of the models disagreeing.some are saying it's in the plus. some are close to 2 feet. the coastal flooding looks like it could be a problem out there.

at 280. there are some clouds up to the north but nothing big . here is the area of low pressure swing to the southeast and they start moving pretty quickly during the winter months. that's what's will happen. the clouds increased today but if we don't accept the precept, it's not that significant. try skies on thursday. it doesn't really bring us what's coming in on friday but as we get into saturday , it looks like the snow showers wedge up to the north and noticed the line on the future cash is close to the coastline. we are looking at the potential to see the mix and it will bring the snow totals down a good amount. if it drops further south, it's going all the way through but it does look

saturday and sunday for the most part. we have an increase in cloud cover but no precept with a high of 36. sunny skies tomorrow heading into town from the south in the north. saturday is the main day of the snow that we could get here and it does look like a good chance lasting into sunday. the weather app is at the google play slow with hourly forecast. it's free. let's get you over to ines with a free report on the commute. ines: right now, no problems on the staten island expressway. it's looking good in brooklyn . it's down by exit 30 with a crossfire. let's go to the cameras and take a look at the commute . it's over by 233 street. you are found the south

the northbound is very quiet. george washington and the city and no problems on the lower level. things are fine on the lincoln in the holland tunnel. curtis likes the red! >> are you feeling uncomfortable? >> you should be. >> only half of the new yorkers approve. most still vote for him. this is according to a new poll that found that the only potential rival is scott stringer. >> the poll says the mayor will beat him 44/33. he tops the former police chief at 50 35%. ruben diaz junior at 47/25. >> let's bring in curtis to

the numbers are 55% . curtis: you could not be more wrong ! black, white, spanish, asian. 1433 city voters. >> these voters must be in a psychosis. either that or their brains are full frozen. this guy is so inept . curtis: he is your mayor . juliet: he is not my mayor speedy six . curtis: he is waiting in the wings with a designated candidate to chop bill de blasio's knees off.

he will mangle anyone but this is for scott stringer? the city controller? curtis: there is no way! all these people do is kiss face with one another. ben: he loves scott stringer when he is not on camera. juliet: he's crazy. curtis: he says the city safer under him and they say it's kelly in a two one vote. this doesn't make much sense because everyone who i have talked to about this more often than not, they are saying ray kelly. it has to be people out there taking something to be in a drug-induced psychosis.

that? streets. can we talk about sarah palin ? ben: i don't think so . juliet: i can't get past . curtis: she looked like she was a lounge lizard in lake tahoe. every time she moved it would go back and forth. >> i don't know that folks from alaska are that ben: doesn't she live in scottsdale arizona? curtis: she has given up alaska. you have sarah palin what is the name of those kids. juliet: bristol , track . you have that

curtis: bernie sanders has a degenerate hip-hop monster following him around because he wants the black vote . ben: if the republican primary was held in new york today. who would you vote for? curtis: i still haven't made up my mind. we don't need diplomacy here. the sarah palin endorsement hasn't helped. it's next hour at the drive at five. still ahead . christoph will his leg injury stop him from

ben: right back. human coronavirus... hepati- >>c virus. there are a lot of different kinds of yucky germs. but not all disinfecting wipes... are approved to kill the same number of them. lysol wipes are approved to kill more types of germs than clorox. don't pick just any wipe. try that one! this cold and flu season lysol that. hershey' s miniatures. we pour ' em! we pass ' em! we pick ' em! delicious fun for everyone. hershey' s miniatures are
