in like a little animal. >> reporter: and they have also said that they are going to be more vigilant, you know, keeping all of this fresh in their minds. back at the u.s. state department, they want americans to be vigilant when they're out traveling, especially in europe. for now reporting live at o.i.a. jackie orozco, fox 35 news. >> ryan: remember to keep to fox 35 for the very latest on the brussels terror attack. you can find any updates as well online, instantly fox35orlando.com. and a lot of political news this morning. in fact, breaking news on the campaign trail involving former florida jeb bush. guy. >> amy: this is according to politico this morning. the endorsement comes after cruz utah. here are the new numbers. cruz taking all 40 of the delegates from utah, but donald trump took arizona. he won all 58 delegates there. things, bernie sanders picked those up. the biggest contest of the night

>> ryan: well, the countdown is on. don't panic. still a couple of weeks left, at least that's my mentality. >> amy: it will take three hours to get his done. less than a month away and there are a lot of questions out there when it comes to avoiding scams with your taxes. steve steve is joining us live in dallas this morning with answers to many of those questions. steve, i'm assuming you had yours done on day one. >> reporter: come on. come on. i'm like foaming at the mouth waiting for the w-2 in the mail. are you kidding me? day one. day one. look, here's why folks. the best defense against tax scams is doing it as early as possible. once your taxes are filed, it eliminates the opportunity for somebody else to file them fraudulently on your behalf.

time as short as possible, so if i get them done february 1st, guess what, now nobody can try and file them for me. you wait until, you know, now, ahem, and they've had all of this time. all right. first, look, i don't think i can afford a c.p.a. i need more help that the d.i.y., kit could give me. the key in that sentence is professional. all you need is a couple of chairs and a folding table, you got yourself a tax office. there is very little oversight here. and a 74,000 page tax code. so, look, i really would encourage anybody to go and actually price out what a c.p.a., might cost you. often times it is much les444444444444 expensive than lot of these messes people bring to me come april, may, june. oh, my gosh, i have spent $1,000 on my tax preparer because i got ripped off. a couple hundred bucks is a certified c.p.a. look, at the end of the day, the thing that i like about that, is

couple of months, even next year, my c.p.a., is still going to be in the same office. so if i have any tax questions, if i get audited in some way, i can still visit the same person, who prepared my taxes, plus because we have a great relationship over the years, he knows what kind of questions to ask me about my personal life, any changes there may have been, which might benefit me tax-wise. >> amy: okay. so, steve, next question. is it okay to allow a company to take possession of your refund and then send you the balance once they take your fee out? are you being too trusting to do that? >> reporter: you know, based on the number of people who do that, and then write to me, you would think it's a-ok. but i'll tell you what, those letters are never because they're happy with their decision. do not ever let anybody direct deposit your money into anything other than your account. look, i know that it sounds like a great proposition. it's no money out of pocket, you think you're going to save all of this cash. but nine times out of ten, it's

from the viewers, that all of a sudden their fee triples and they sent you what was left over. they never sent you a check. they lied aboutest -- lied about getting your check. you go ahead and distribute it out the way you should. real quick before we go. i want to talk about extensions. a lot of folks ask how easy to get an extension. all you have to do is fill out the form, but beware. this is not an extension to pay, only an extension to file. so if you're looking to do this because you think you want an extension to pay the tax bill, you're sadly mistaken. here's the problem. a lot of folks think it's an extext to pay, they hit hit with fees and all kinds of penalties. you will still have to estimate what the tax burden, write the check to uncle sam by april 15th. at that point, you might as well get it done. you can go to itunes for my pod cast. >> amy: good stuff.

we appreciate you. we'll talk to you later. all right. let's check in with brooks and see how things are looking weather-wise. >> brooks: good morning, amy. good morning, everybody. it's going to be a sunny day today. temperatures back close to normal. the last couple of days it's been chilly. the high temperatures today near 80. temperatures in the 50s through much of central florida. a little cooler north and west. but by the 9:00 hour, i think everybody will be about 5, 10 degrees warmer than where we are right now. over the next 36 hours, the humidity really begins to winds. and then this weekend it won't be a washout. but we have enhanced clouds and rain as we go through the weekend, maybe some thunderstorms with warm, humid conditions returning. el nino remaining strong and that's going to help accentuate the rainfall this weekend. outside right now, here's our view from orlando.

can't wait until the big tournament this summer. that should be impressive, with brazil coming into town. temperatures right now 57 in brevard county. 51 at the world center of speed. north and west temperatures in the 40s. but everybody warmer than this time yesterday. around the southeast there's no cold air. look at that. it's warmer right now in oklahoma city and omaha than it is in orlando. that warmth will continue to move east, it will continue to see our atmosphere moisten up. start to feel really good. and then we're going to see some rain coming into play. so here we go. today we stay dry. showers tomorrow. but by friday this little frontal boundary very weak. it's going to wash out across central florida. friday, saturday, sunday it will serve as the focus mechanism for rain. here we go. accuweather seven-day forecast. 81 degrees on wednesday. as we go through thursday, friday, saturday, sunday high

upper 80s. but right now solid chance of rain friday, saturday, and sunday. not a washout. just quite unsettled. let's get a check on the morning drive. hey, kristin. >> reporter: hello, good morning. we are taking you out right now to i-4 eastbound, right at 1792. cars are not moving. this has been going on for quite a while. i'll step out of the way so you can see here. it appears a crash on the other side of the trees is blocking that exit ramp to get on to 1792. again this is i-4 eastbound and some troubles there. we do have an alternate route for you. we'll get to that in just a second. so taking a look here, if i were you, i would take i-4 eastbound to state road 46 as an alternate. again to avoid that backup there on 1792. taking you down to kissimmee. still seeing some major delays on the florida turnpike. this is right after osceola parkway. florida 91, florida turnpike northbound. so you see those red lines there in those northbound lanes.

saturday, sunday not looking at a complete washout. we'll have significant rain and possible thunderstorm chances every day. so enjoy today. el nino remains strong and that's going to help accentuate the rain chances this weekend. outside right now 53 degrees. calm winds. beautiful morning shaping up, sun right on the top right-hand corner of the screen. temperature-wise again for central florida, still dealing with some 40s. well north and west, but 50s right now. look at that. latest from orlando executive airport. 58 degrees. everybody much warmer than this time yesterday morning. so it's going to be a nice day. i think we're done with that two-day cooldown that began late sunday night. around the southeast, mild conditions. again it's not often that it's typical sometimes in march that we see orlando cooler than omaha. we are cooler than st. louis. we are cooler than lexington and d.c. all of this mild air will shift east as we go through the next couple of days. that's when we increase the

and increase the low-level moisture. so here's the forecast map. southeast winds, a lot of sun and warmth. tomorrow slight chance of a shower in the afternoon hours. not really looking for wide coverage or heavy rain tomorrow. but as we go through friday and then saturday, and then sunday, this frontal boundary stalls out right over central florida as they do. and a lot of times they serve as the focus mechanism with more rain and a chance of storms friday, saturday and sunday. no rain today. 81 degrees the high this afternoon. so after a cool start, it's going to be a nice day. overnight tonight look for low temperatures in the low 60s. and the accuweather seven-day forecast, 81 today. mid-80s beginning tomorrow. a little more humid. but then again friday, saturday and sunday. keep an eye to the sky as we see significant rain chances each and every day, including easter sunday. it's time to snap the sun.
