Eyewitness News Reporter nina pineda is in Herold Square tonight hanging with the folks there. Nina. Reporter liz, eight fewer trains an hour, thats what we can expect during this track work and the mta says on its own, thats like three to four minute delays but add to that express trains running on local tracks, well, that is a whole different ball game making for a hot and sticky commute. Its crazy because theres already delays so imagine them announcing theres going to be delays. Its crazy. Reporter riders on the e, f, m and r subway lines will eventually. The track work requires trains to run at slower speeds, translation, longer waits on unbearably hot platforms. Its really hot down here and i really hate it. I think i waited about 45 so reporter these delays yeah, it is. I will be taking the bus.

People out there remember, they are swimming in the north atlantic which can get very rough at times but they are always there and they are on duty and on call. Reporter staying with inside of the lifeguards just one of the good ideas you dont want to take for granted while youre seeking heat relief along the ocean.

The dow gained more than 67 points, the nasdaq up 43 and the s p 500 picked up nearly 11 points. And as we continue with Eyewitness News at 6 00 on this monday night, republican front runner donald trump takes the day off from campaigning but still manages to create a little chaos. The wild scene as he reported for jury duty today in Lower Manhattan. Plus, yankees pitcher cc sabathia gets into a shouting match with some fans in toronto. Jury duty got quite chaotic today at the federal courthouse in Lower Manhattan. Donald trump, the republican front runner took a break from the campaign trail today one day after unveiling his controversial immigration policy to fulfill his civic duty. Just like most things trump does, it created a spectacle. Local reporter dave evans was in the middle of it all. Hes in Lower Manhattan tonight with more. Reporter as we just saw there, there was a huge Media Presence here in Lower Manhattan all day long today both locally, nationally, even internationally for donald trump facing something all of us had to face and that is jury duty or at least some of us have had to face. Ultimately he was dismissed from the jury but trump is in a lot of controversy for another reason and that is his new policy on immigration. It could affect millions. Donald trump says he didnt know he had been summoned to jury duty before, claims those summons went to one of his many addresses, he got fined but today no complaints at all about jury duty. Its the system, we go through it and its a great system. Its a system that works and they do a fantastic job and i met some wonderful people. Reporter trump is taking this jury duty break from the campaign trail right as the latest polling shows him still way out in front. Jeb bush has fallen all the way to fourth. Over the weekend trump complained at the iowa state fair and promptly caused more controversy with his latest on immigration. We are building a wall, its going to be strong. Reporter trumps new immigration policy includes paying for his wall by increasing fees on mexican citizens visiting the u. S. He would end welfare for new immigrants and end birth right citizenship if your parents are illegal. We have to keep the Families Together but they have to go. Reporter on sunday trump told nbc, thats right, ship everybody out, citizen or not. You cant get rid of families that were born in the united states. I mean, thats just ludicrous. Reporter hispanic republicans are becoming increasingly angry at trumps rhetoric and strong polling numbers. Its entertainment. Its not real. You cant get rid of 11 million immigrants. I mean, who built america . America was built by immigrants. Reporter back at jury duty onlookers were well aware of trumps latest on immigration and most not happy at all. I think trump should look at his gene background where his ancestry lies and understands how his family coming over here, how important it was for him to establish his roots, how important to make themselves and how hes a better businessman because of that. Reporter just before 4 00 today, donald trump along with about 380 other potential jury members were all dismissed because there simply were not enough cases for this week. So donald trump, he has done his civic duty, will not be called for potential jury duty for another for now reporting live in Lower Manhattan, dave evans, channel channel 7. Thank you.

The companys first wearable wristband slated to roll out sometime next year. What will they think of next . Really cool. However, wearing the band wont keep you any cooler. No, it wont.

Heres another look at the park right now, it looks like at this point we should remain dry although a couple of popup showers over parts of new jersey. We will have to watch and see if they migrate into the city. 10 or 20 chance of that happening temperature right now 89, that wind coming in from the southeast around 3 miles per hour. The high on the day 95 after a morning low of 78, way above normal for this time of the year.

Still steamy tomorrow, spotty storm, mainly north and west of new york city, not as hot tomorrow either. We are barely going to get past 90 so we will continue the heatwave but we are not expecting mid90s here in the city. Near normal on wednesday and thursday, normal, low to mid 80s but humidity will hang on and there could be a spotty shower or thunderstorm each day. Next chance at widespread and heavier storms comes in thursday night into the day on friday as a front tries to kind of stall over the region. That could mean some heavy downpours in the area. 95 right now in newark, 89 at laguardia, 83 at jfk airport. Head out onto the island, much cooler, low 80s because the wind coming in from the southwest. Thats off the Atlantic Ocean for long island. 86 down the shore in belmar. We have been watching a few showers popping up and this type of an air mass showers and thunderstorms can pop up at any time because it is so humid out there, one popping up over here over bergen county. More significantly, right down here along the line of monmouth and ocean counties in new jersey just south of i195, right along the garden state parkway just west of man issaquah muggy, the high getting up to 84, maybe some storms around. Accuweather forecast for tonight going like this, maybe a stray thunderstorm early and then quite warm and sticky, we are down to 78 for a low. Sunny to partly cloudy, hot, humid tomorrow, spotty afternoon storm especially north and west of the city, 91, spotty storm early tomorrow night and then just muggy out there, 75. Warm and humid on wednesday, not quite as hot, only getting up to about 84, about normal for this time of year, maybe heavy storms coming in thursday night and lasting into friday. We have to leave that storm chance in there all day friday, 83, and then over the weekend mid80s, we should clear out, we should dry out by that point. Cant complain about that. Nope. Thank you.

When i got to the ballpark. You try to remind your players all the time, everything is fair game, so there is no there isnt. Im with you. The mets off today after a rough weekend. They were swept by the pirates. Sloppy play sealed the deal yesterday. They hadnt beaten the pirates yet this season. Mets are just 920 against teams from the nl central. That could be a problem come playoff time. Baltimore is up next starting tomorrow but even with a lost weekend and these plays show you, it was ugly. The mets are still in control in the nl east with 44 games left to play in the regular season. And part of the reason for that is that the nationals are in free fall right now. They have lost six in a row so with about six, seven weeks left of play, the mets have a 4 1 2 lead over washington and play six more times this season. Nfl Training Camps continue this week, the giants get ready for preseason game number 2 at home saturday against the jaguars. Has been about injury.
