orr with the no-wait weather. >> brandon: there is good news, though, we had steady rain over night and it came down heavy at times and in fact there was a flood advisory issued for downtown, as weed a band of heavy rain, and a pretty short period of time and no wide, spread, reports of flooding and we are just talking about the drains that are clogged and things like that. right now, we will dry it out, at least, over downtown, and i don't see any blue, other than if you go he to flor ens and that is where we have a couple of showers and these are mainly the sprinkles moving there you and for the most part, we are done with the heaviest of the rain, and the heavy steady rain and now we are looking ahit or miss, showers and there is that can move throughout northern idaho and look through the south and after we get through the rain and it is very spotty and that is what we are going to see later on today, it is going to be hit or miss, and scattered showers and look at how low the clouds are too, on the camera, 59 degrees, is where the temperatures are at across the area and there a

were above freezing at least. >> brandon: it is, and it started after midnight. >> brandon: i know, but actually our frmg, low temperature is right around 35. and so we are not too far off and we have just been spoiled, and just give me above 50 for the opening day and i am good. that is what we are all hoping for. >> liz: i told him that we are already, reaching and looking. >> brandon: we will have to see in the coming weeks and i am hoping for the nicer weather and just warmer than what it is today, that is for sure. these are the pavement temperatures and you can see that they are below freezing and especially north of downtown, and even other, the downtown, pavement temperatures on the overpasses are below freezing and so any moisture left over from yesterday's rain and snow mix, you will have to watch out for a couple of patchy areas of black ice and we have had reports of that one of which was i74, near harrison and this is not quite down, to harrison but we don't have any traffic cameras, this is the closest one at morgan road. you can see there are cars out there, and you c

. >> brandon: good and it is going to get as the weekend goes on. >> adam: here is brandon orr with the no wait weather >> brandon: it is going to be warmer and we saw the rain fall and not so much the case and even though it looks like rain, 37 degrees and lots of cloud and it will start to break up at least a little bit later on today, and i think that we will get the peaks of the sunshine and look at the temperatures and now we have the 30s across the area and as i mentioned 37 at fayetteville. and in the 20 and that is a big difference over a short area clouds. we will have the clouds at night and tends to keep the temperature up. and you can see that clearing over there. and that is what dropped them into the upper 20s precision, doppler ch 12 hd, none of the clouds are producing any snow on radar and there is some of that sunshine that we will see later on today. 48 degrees by four, and 49 by temperature and we are just closing in on the 50-degree mark today and notice how slowly it falls, and we are not looking at a temperature drop over night tonight and so we have two more dry

orr. hi, brandon. >> i know talking about a pancake breakfast before 6:00 a.m. we haven't eaten breakfast. precision doppler 12 h.d. does have activity on it in northern kentucky. that's where we have snow showers this morning. we have some moving through independent dip an that that's going to cross 71 and to 75. if you're going to south to louisville or election singson keep in mind we could see slick areas -- lexington. over downtown we have dry air in place. that's keeping the snow from reaching the ground and we're going to stay dry throughout part of the morning because that's the only band we have coming through. then we wait for the next one to redevelop over central indiana 32 at the airport. same in lunken. the rest of us are at or below freezing -- paving temperatures a lot of them are above freezing with the exception of versailles at 32. that's where we had one snow shower moving through. but the overpasses are at or below freezing as well. that's what we're keeping an eye on on 71 and 75. the rest of us i think will be ok. looking over downtown we

brandon, how are the cities chosen? do you choose them based for example she mentioned flint, that's a new site for the program this year and obviously we all know there a big water crisis in that city. >> the flint actual site is a focus on environmental justice due to the water crisis that we all know about. actually, it's very new thing that we're doing, an interfaith group is actually going. so not only christian, but muslims and some hindu students going and i think maybe one or two jewish individuals going. so not only does a.s.b. extend on just a student front, but also we're tackling issues that deal around islamic phobia. and things such as that going to flint. i know the way we select individuals, the process is that individuals submit fliks applic paced off their interests and from that interest we place them in particular sites. >> k, orleans. but actually the a.s.b. program was in new orleans before katrina in 2005. >> yes. so we were actually working in new orleans before katrina. our mission back then was

that night brandon went to the emergency room. the medical report from that evening states that he had pneumonia and a white area inside his mouth that appeared to be peeling. and my brother went home and he put on facebook that he was scared to go to sleep. and he didn't wake up the next day. brandon's autopsy report found that he had non-toxic doses of methadone and an anti-depressant in his system. it attributed his death to a combination of a drug overdose and pneumonia. despite the autopsy report, brandon's family believes that his death was work-related. >> what do you think killed him? >> i think it was the chemicals. i've never seen anybody's throat swell up, or their whole entire face swell up the way that his did. >> osha issued the company a citation for failing to test the space for hazardous atmospheric conditions and another for failing to train their employees. >> the company wasn't doing atmospheric testing. this is the very beginning of the safety program especially with regards to confined space. you gotta know w
