if you look at what worked for donald trump across the nation in terms of his name, his brand being an outsider. all of this i think democrats are licking their wounds and looking to john morgan saying it would work as well. we don't know if john morgan is interested this. a statement will be forthcoming from him later this week. it was the people behind the medical marijuana campaign who started the drive. who governor.com and the pac that has donors filling coffers with this bet they would not do that without the knowledge if not to a certain extent the support and approval of john morgan himself. on top of that, yes, you see the banner here. obama's campaign manager from 2012 is also jumps into this effort as well because, as democrats do so will soul-searching, they're looking for someone who they think can move the ball for them in florida.

term limited out and until he pets it down, therefore, john morgan will get a lot of buzz. >> if he decides to run, who would be his competition? >> there would be quite a few. you have tampa mayor bob buckhorn considering a run. he's been open about this. this is giving buckhorn some heartburn. you have gwen graham and daughter of bob graham. politicians across the strament. former legislators and mouse leaders that also eye this. of course, adam putnam. the list goes on and on. locally buckhorn has been beating the drums as a candidate himself with this. look for some decisions possibly over the next 30 to 45 days. it's not that long of a wait to november 2018. >> in rest for you craig.

guard dog -- but ?bees that stopped some would be burglars right in their tracks. it wasn't a guard dog but bees. that foiled thur plans and sent them running the other way. >> yes, it did. dan owner. >> they jumped the fence breaking into her backyard would normally not be a laughing matter. sdloo they were gone like a street of like nij. >> it happened in south st. pete, but this time the joke is on them. >> it falls on the bees. >> the fence was kicked in and one of the beehives was over the ground. >> reporter: st. petersburg police say you can see one of the outlaws likely a teenager

>> he landed right on top of the hives, and bees don't like to be disturbed anytime but especially at night. >> needless, to say the teens didn't make it further onto her property. police took fingerprints and called several emergecy rooms to see if anyone was treated for swelling. >> i hope they got stung, because it's what they deserve for trying to break in. >> she was worried that the queen bee was harmed, but that did not appear to be the case. she says the honey was ready to be harvested anyway. >> about going over a fence again. >> if it does happen again, they have a pretty sweet security system. in st. petersburg, dan matics, fox 13 news. >> i think we need to get beehives. >> it made a big difference apparently. palm, this is a great week, and a little cloudy yesterday but cleared up today. >> clearing skies and now the seven-day features lots of stunny symbols and no rain and certainly cooler temperatures

not much daylight left. what is left is good. here's a view on the hilton clearwater beach cam. don't forget the moon is one night past full, so the other way looking to the east should be pretty good moon-rise this evening. if you look closely, i saw it a few minutes ago. at the top of the tv set, which is way up there, that is venus, which shows up brightly in the western sky. that obviously is the view from the a couple of chilly days. it's not chili but cooler. 75 was the high today. we stay 75 to 80 until a cold front on saturday. rainfall to be honest was pathetic. not much. we hit 0.01 of an inch on the 9th and a trace of rain last night. that's it. it may not rain again this month.

don't see anything between now and thanksgiving. we have clouds thick south of tampa bay as expected today. we had increasing sunshine from northwest to southeast. the rain is leaving the state. it was kind of a wet day down in miami-dade, broward counties and still some rain over the keys, and that rain heading for the bahamas. behind it we're clearing and we're cooler already 63 in brooksville, 68 in tampa, 68 this sarasota. this temperature range is really good because usually with this type of run the heat. you don't have to run the air-conditioning, so you start to save money when you have temperature ranges like this. clear and a bit cooler tonight as cold front number one goes by. cold front number two is back there, and it just kind of washes out. so wednesday high pressure builds in. on thursday it's another day filled with sunshine, and then on friday we look northwest and we start to see a cold front moving through kansas city.

it looks to me like this front goes by on saturday, and behind that it turns quite a bit cooler for a couple of days next week. so we're running in that 75 to 80 zone between now and saturday, and then behind the front on saturday we dop to 65 to 70 and 45 to 50 for a low next week. right now 68 and the dew point is 50 and northwest winds at 6:00 and around the over the bahamas. beneficial rain in new england. they have a big drought. no rain on the way for the big drought in north carolina all the way back to birmingham. bon bone dry and rain across the pacific northwest. 56 in atlantic city and 54 in atlanta. watching the tropics, hurricane season ends officially november 30th. once in a while we get troppal development in november. i think this becomes otto in

become a pretty decent hurricane, but it's not heading our way. it will meander, i think, slowly in the caribbean sea. you can see the computer models are all over the place. not a lot of wind to push the storm around, but i would expect that it would be a hurricane in the southwestern caribbean sea by next week. not unusual, you get about one or two every november. tonight chilly in brooksville, 49. tampa is down to 60. then tomorrow is a beautiful day. just lots o dazzling blue sky, and it will be great to be outside. the trough along the east coast will lift up, and the ridge builds in for a couple of days giving us morp warmth. the coolest of the season friday, this trough starts to head our way and the trough will bring a cold front by over the weekend. all this setup for us means cooler weather but no sign of rain. we become clear and cool tonight and also moonlit down to 60.

very pleasant and 77. on thursday more sunshine and till very nice. highs up near 80. seven-day forecast, i think this is pretty good. some of you like more heat. some of you like a little chillier, but overall it's good. highs near 80s and nighttime lows near 50. scott. paul, it is a special night in tampa at the tpepin's hospitality centre where five new inductees into the florida sports hall of fame are here in the building. jon gruden and jeremy foley and company honored tonight. mike evans, a firestorm the last 48 hours, bu he tried to put it bed today. a reversal on the decision to sit during the n
