you a bunch more fall foliage pictures, but rain and weather is knocking the trees off of the trees on the and to the street. here is a look outside today. the clouds finally moving in a different direction. in steady of moving east to west they are moving northwest to southeast, indicating that dryer air is moving in, and look how blue the nice shadows late in the day, and a beautiful way to wrap up the week with the winds picking up from the north and northwest. and all of this means that cooler and dryer air is filters right down the str state, in fat the cooler air is filtering down to the keys. and i want to stress this.

you are going to be cold except for our northern counties briefly on sunday morning, and although we'll see cooler temperatures i am not expecting anything unusual for this time of year, and where you see the red indicates dry air, and if you look closely you see the cold front right here and then behind it, another surge of dry air coming in on the backside. that front moving down the state tomorrow, it will be eventually cloud-free, with lots of sunshine. and check out the dewpoints. you can see where the front is. a dewpoint in tampa is 62, and down to 54 in brooksville, and pretty much where you see the green and yellow coming together, that is the cold front. it will continue to slide down to the south with the winds picking up from the north and

tomorrow, especially during the morning. by afternoon the winds slacken and sunday is the best boating day, lots of sun shine and certainly lighter winds. watch the cold front, it moves steadily to the south, breezy and cooler tomorrow, a great golf day, and a great tennis day coming up, and then high pressure continues to drift to the south the winds start to turn around, that is pretty much it for the cool air. the good news is i don't see any of the 70, 75 dewpoints coming back any time soon. it will be a bit more humid where pretty much everything will be under control heading into the big halloween weekend. 75 tomorrow and delightful, and you could flip that, outstanding works tomorrow.

winds northwest at 6 and around the country, finally some rain in the northeast. the problem is it's been multiple flash flood warnings up from portland, maine. west of boston they picked up 3 to 5 inches of rain. this is a spot that has been in major drought going back to the spring. and this is typically how it happen the and it doesn't end with an easy rain. they underflooding in the northeast h some of that rain turning to snow in the mountains this up-coming weekend. it's cooler and breezy and 58. an outstanding today tomorrow, and hope that you enjoy the sunsign, more coming up on sunday, lots of sun shine and very nice, and i think the headline is the dewpoints stay

i've seen what can happen as the result of hate. my son matt was murdered in laramie, wyoming, in 1998. he was befriended by two men in a bar who pretended to be gay. they offered him a ride home, and when he was in their car, they robbed him and beat him. they drove matt out to the prairie and tied him to a split-rail fence, then beat him some more and left him for dead. in the aftermath of matt's death, my family saw the best of america in the love and support we were shown. so when i see the hate that donald trump has brought to his campaign for president, it terrifies me. i'd like to punch him

d, uhh, i don't remember. he's a mexican. i could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody, and i wouldn't... words have an influence. violence causes pain. hate can rip us apart. i know what can happen as the result of hate, and donald trump should never be our president. priorities usa action is responsible for the content of this advertising. >> well, the temple owls found a way to slow down the usf high

them off the field. the bulls fell to the owls. the owls opened with a fieldgoal in the game and then usf responded with a touch down. with the fake there, rolls out to the right and finds a wide open marquez. and the defense makes a mistake here, and and this was the longest touch down for the owls this year, temple stretches their lead to two touch downs and the bulls come it down but flowers thoos go out with an injury and then the first pass is picked off. and the owls beat the bulls.
