M. so i show it to you, mainly to prove a point here that as we head through the day, things are going to warm into the 40s midday but as far as sunshine i do think its going to be a bit delayed, so one of the things that were talking about is not only the cooler weather today rain on sunday, 50 degrees is still above normal. the other thing about todays weather thats a little different and this is why sometimes forecast models is all about when youve been in cleveland, you all know how unique our weather is because of the lake. if youre downtown and if you live close to the lake shore in general, youre not going to make it to 50 today. youll be 40s with a lot more cloud cover hovering into the afternoon so theres a bit of a change. so the forecast is pretty dynamic today in several ways. we have the front that rushed through and the warm weather is now to our south and east, the cooler weather has moved in but cooler, you know kind of in quotes because it is still going to trend a few degrees above normal. upper 30s to near 40 rain is out of here, High Pressure will be building in so although cloud cover stubborn through the morning hours, by midday, most of you see sunshine but notice here at 3 00 this afternoon theres still that bit of cloud cover hovering along the lake. 50s inland so its going to be a split forecast today. were pretty much clear through tonight great for your evening plans, and then tomorrow looks like a really nice day and it will be a cool start but we recover into the 60s and then were tracking that rain for sunday. by sunday morning, showers around this is 6 00 a. M. sunday and as you wake up having your coffee, youre so good youll have already turned those clocks ahead an hour, and maybe heading out to church and things sunday morning there will be wet roads to deal with. Window Nation seven day now 50 today, 40s near the lake 60s tomorrow, thats the day to get those kids out and maybe sunday is the day to watch the movie and have a day inside. were 60s to start next week but it will get cooler towards the end of next week with 40s and more seasonal thursday. time check at 6 15 here is a look at your commute. good morning to you. bridge because we have a broken down pick up on i90 eastbound thats blocking the right lanes so right now were starting to see stop and go traffic in that area. i spoke to Cleveland Police and they are responding to this as you can see here again that right lane is blocked and so were starting to see 90 east over the inner belt turn orange which means slow traffic, we take a lock at that drive time over the inner belt and its typically two minutes so between 490 and 77 currently its a three minute commute so hopefully they can get that pick up truck cleared out very soon so that we are not having big delays there. and if you take rta, dont forget that rta buses replace trains east of tower city through the morning rush. other than that were green and clean on the traffic map. back to you. its almost 6 17 so its time now for my biggest winners and losers in sports and for my biggest loser there was a theft caught on cell phone camera. you can clearly see who the thief is in the video but hes not my biggest loser. cell phones taking the video. take a look at this group of golfers in england when this fox comes and joins them guy pulls out the phone but watch the fox. he goes right into the golf bag and steals the guys wallet. now in the hot pursuit he eventually drops the wallet with the golfer after him but this should be a lesson to all you golfers. foxes are sly. they can outsmart you, smarty pants and if youre too busy grabbing your cell phone they may grab your wallet like this little guy and then take off. [laughter] that is fantastic. a great video right there. that will show you. my biggest win turpitudes email it to morningshow wkyc. Com or tweet them to me at john wkyc. ive always learned too you should not chase a fox.

[applause] donald trump expecting a moved carson. and late last night, defending his Campaign Manager saying a reporter fabricated claims that he roughed her up leaving bruises. how did it get there . do you know how they got there . not much rough in this debate. i can not believe how civil its been up here. they stuck to issues often three against one with trump alone on social security, cuba, taxing china, banning muslims, and a two state solution for israel. hes right about the problems, but his solutions dont work. florida holds a pro israel morning. im not interested being politically correct im interested being correct. trump too soon. to go. there are only two of us to get there. a moment in what continues to be a tense race. and lets talk ohio, because all roads go through ohio right. today. Bernie Sanders starting out in North Carolina ending up in illinois but going through ohio today and of course Hillary Clinton is hoping to get her midwest come back there in ohio at that devastating loss she had in michigan. right. people are still curious though. i know that marco rubio expressed some regret fighting fire with fire with donald trump, throwing out those personal attacks. he later did express some regret, is that the reason why we saw a lighter tone in the debate . you know youve got to wonder about that. when marco rubio was asked said well look they threw out poll think questions and we gave policy answers thats what you get when you dont try to pit the candidates one against the other but youve got to wonder too if he toned it down because clearly that was not working for him. now, its worked for donald trump so far some of the personal attacks obviously his numbers are supporting that, but now hes getting a lot of questions about whether some of these events and some of the violence and attacks of people at his rallies are stirred up by his tone so now hes being questioned about whether or not he needs to tone it down at the rallies, looks like everybody decided to town it down last night. theyre behaving. former first Lady Nancy Reagan will be laid to rest in Southern California today. hundreds of people including politicians and celebrities along with family and friends are expected to attend the private funeral. over the past few days, more casket during public viewing. services will take place at the ronald regan library. regan was 94 years old. time right now it is almost 6 26. lets talk about our weather here getting into the weekend so its kind of a hit and miss weekend. yes. well go half and half. youll have plenty of time to get outside and well talk some really good things too. today is cooler but still trending a few degrees above normal even with the cool down. lots of cloud cover through this morning and well transition to some sunshine this afternoon. now if youre along the lake shore i think its probably the most delayed for you but around 50 degrees and 40s near the lake. on the travel maps theres a lot of rain, john so well be tracking more of it for the weekend. ill let you know exactly what part of the weekend this has an impact on coming up. coming up at 6 30 bed ford police won a cold case from the 80s back in the headlines the update just ahead. and we are just four days a we from the ohio primary and today over a lawsuit filed by bernie sand turpitudes over allowing 17 year olds to vote. right now 6 30 welcome back. im john anderson. holly has your forecast coming up but first breaking news from overnight. police are looking for a suspect who shot a man outside of the midtown cleveland nightclub and it happened on rockwell avenue near east 21st street. shot outside the alibi nightclub and another person was injured. both taken to Metrohealth Medical Center with nonlife threatening injuries. no word on what lead up to the shooting. today bed ford police wil
