Lets get right over to bob with a check whatever the latest is on the septa strike, what were dealing with right now. Bob . Gang, good morning, 4 02, here we go, rounds two. Whats not running . The city buses and trolleys are still parked. No market frankford line. And no broad street subway same deal as yesterday, whats running, all of the Regional Rails, yesterday we average about 60 minute delays throughout the entire day. Norristown highspeed line is operating, suburban lines, trolley routes, outside the city are operating, they have separate contract not impacted at all by the work stoppage, paratransit, lucy loop running as well. Be ready for today, checklist, the crowded platforms, we saw yesterday. Saw it last night. Be ready for that this morning. Get your ticket in advance. Septa will be collecting tickets before you board the train. No carbon the trains, no getting on, you wont be able to get on the train unless you have that ticket in advance. And try for the flex hours, even septa said yesterday, they thought that that would probably be your best bet, if you can push your start time until after say 9 30 or so, i think youll be in good shape. You got the flat rate in the parking garages, 10 for ten hours. Down here in center city. And outside we go to Early Morning closure of the schuylkill expressway, all westbound lanes are blocked, from university into center city, because after overnight construction project. They should be out of here by about 5 00 a. M. And whats it look i can like for another wednesday morning septa commute, sue . Looks like the weather is not going to give you any problems, so at least there is that. Take a look at the number of the day, once again a ten. Yes, this will be even warmer than we were yesterday. So, we head, there you go, to ultimate doppler radar, and once again, skies are clear. So off to cool start again this morning. But milder than yesterday. 52 degrees to get you started, 86 percent relative humidity, more humid today, and in the 40s in mount pocono. You remember we were well below freezing at this time yesterday. 46 degrees allentown, 52 as we said in philadelphia, 49 degrees in wildwood. So these are the temperatures as you are walking out the door. Wont be windy waiting for your ride this morning or maybe riding your bike. Plan on High Temperature every 73 degrees, sunset time some 5 57. So as we said, thomas, karen, the weather at least is not going to give you any problems. Certainly one bright spot. Sue, thank youment time now 4 04, contract talks between Union Leaders and septa expected to pick back up later this morning. Both sides say working very hard at this one. Out to Lauren Johnson, joining us from where they are negotiate to go see if weve had nip movement, any offers. Whats the latest . Reporter good morning, septa and local 234 union which reps the employees met here at the sheridan until about 1 00 this morning when they decided to call it quit. Also expected to resume again later this morning, so, did they make any frog rest yesterday . It depends on who you ask. Two sides apparently didnt even sit facetoface until late yesterday evening. Representative bob brady showed up here at the sheridan. Brady brought leaders from the city, septa, the union together to sit down, brady played big role in the 2009 septa strike, six day stoppage, said hes begin ready to help between the union and see what septa is offering. Back and forth. All in the hotel. Which is a good thing, not going to get nothing done unless they are talking, and they are talking, different pro poes as. Im not sure where the ball is right now but theyre going back and forth with their proposals. Good thing. You never settle anything if youre not talking. But they are talking. The president of the union said his fight is for the workers who deserve secure retirement and quality workplace. The major issues as we continue to hear are pensions and work rules relate to go safety, in the next half hour well look at what both sides are saying about the sticking points to get City Services rolling again once they meet back here at the sheridan, thomas, karen . Checking back with you all morning long, Lauren Johnson, thank you. Dont forget to send in your questions, hashtag fox 29 septa, could be answering questions all morning long. Lets continue our Team Coverage of the septa strike. Right out to steve keeley at the fernrock station with a look at how the commute is going to go on this morning, good morning, steve. Reporter well, before we hit these closer record High Temperatures in the afternoon the next couple of days, it is very, very cold. The overnight hours, they still have the fire burning on the picket lines, both in the barrels and in the bellies of the striking workers, determined to stay out until they get what they think they deserve so. Were outside the fernrock station, think this time of day usually quiet, maybe stragglier on the normally running subway, but no subways running, and then greg will come back out to where we are, look down the street, and you can see on both sides of the street we still have available parking, and the parking lot just couple of cars in it right now. The question is, how packed is this going to be, for the Regional Rails, than is one of the last stops before you get into sent city. Usually when the trains comes in here, already packed, tough to find a seat on normal day. And you got to wonder are the trains going to bypass here, are they going to get canceled because of some strike situation, that the strikers have planned, or are they going to just be too full to stop and pick up anybody else, and have a bunch of commuters left waiting and late again today. Look at the video from yesterday. Heres what bob kelly was talking about in the afternoon rush hour, the reginald rail was the story of the afternoon, where the car traffic was the story of both the morning and the afternoon. But the Regional Rail, this is what used to be called market eels, sold the name naming rights, jefferson station, the money from the naming rights didnt get too far since we are at another strike, even though they got another way of getting some income stream for septa, and the people here completely frustrated last night, a lot of them gave up waiting. Then they would go to try to hail a cab, the cab company told us over an hour wait for the cab to go home if thats your alternate means. Talked to some of the come caught ers wondering how theyll survive this. Hope septa does their part, make sure all of the trains are running the best as possible, we all get on. I doubt will happen, i can see by the lines, but well see. Today is the first day. Deal with it. Cant get upset. How is this affecting your commute . What do you have to do today . Usually would have probably been almost home. But well just drive tomorrow. That will be easier. Today im calm. But, i mean, this continues to happen, you know, it could be become a little bit frustrating. Well, there is the Regional Rail board, a lot of lathes, a lot of concellations on there, especially, for the earlier trains, for the early trains they were canceled because strikers kept the staff that run the reginald rail trains away from the rail yards because they had picked lines set up. Then septa went to court and got an injunction against that. Well you heard that woman there, karen, thomas, say were in the going to do this tomorrow. Were going to drive. Thats why police think as bad as yesterday was yesterday morning where we had gridlock, driving back from your location, karen, usually two comes at main end sections, but traffic even worse today. All of the people that got frustrated with the Regional Rail line will hop in their cars, and add to cars on the roads this morning, to make it even worse than yesterday. Soap, bob, thats going to be the story, broad street, a all of the main streets, main intersections, gridlocked, and the cons will try to keep them from getting gridlocked. Almost hard to do when people just refuse to let people in front of them it, let them turn in, let them join the crowd, and where are you going to park all of the parking lots, all of the parking garages filling up as women. So earlier commute for the people smart enough to know, leave early and maybe grab a spot in one of the few garages and lots where they are going to be spots available, guys . Steve, thank you, i think youre right on all of those count. The time 4 10. Very sad news to report this morning. Harold hairston, our first after can american to serve as fire commissioner, he died.

Time now 4 15. Yesterday morning, was a mess. The evening commute, even worse. It is day two of the septa strike, and are you still confused about how it is going to affect you today . Bob has done great job of answering a loft your questions. And you have great question, higher bus number, 90, the suburban, whatever you have, whatever you want to know, use your hashtag fox 29 septa. And speaking of him, bob . Good morning, one of the questions yesterday, right out of the gate, was if you purchased an ezpass, or you had a transpass, one of those key passes, when are they going to re fun your money theyll address all of the refunds and credit after the strike is over. So, that answers the first question, was on the top of my head when we got started this morning. Live look at Early Morning closure, westbound schuylkill expressway, closed, from university into 30th street with some overnight construction, and steve keeley was right on the money, today is going to be worse than yesterday. Because everyone that gave mass transit a try, or used their option number one yesterday, and it didnt work or they were frustrated there is err going to go for option number two, which is driving. So expect more traffic out on the roadways for the morning rush hour, north on the new jersey turnpike, a car, tractortrailer fire, just north of exit number four, only one lane open there. We got water main break in the northeast, at frankford ann margaret. Thats right underneath the margaret orthodox l stop. Now for your checklist for today, youll have the crowded platforms, be ready for that, get an early start. Plus the Catholic Schools are back in session today. They were off yesterday. So we have all of the schools back. So thats going to throw few extra people into the mix here. Get your tickets in advance. Theyll not allow anyone to board the train without a ticket. And if you can trip for those flex hours, thats the best bet. Give the boss a call talk. Nice and sweet, maybe send some flowers, and then ask if you can come in after 9 30 a. M. So, i tried that t did not work. And youre such a sweet talker, i cant believe it didnt. All right, heres whats happening with our weather. Not a problem really. We have High Pressure in control, it has been pretty nice start to the month of november. All two days of it so far. We hardly are into the second day but heres whats coming for thursday afternoon. It is a cold front. Thats going to change us back to the autumnal feel. But before, that we have the possibility of near record warmth tomorrow. The record high for thursday is 80 degrees, and were going to get close to that tomorrow. But for our future cast, we see lot of sunshine for today. When does that cold front come through tomorrow . It looks like it is not until the afternoon, maybe few showers, around, 1 00. But 3 00, 4 00 when we see the rain come in from that cold front, possibility of a thunderstorm, as well, so thats future cast. Now as you walk out the door, right now, temperatures are not as cold as they were yesterday. 52 degrees in philadelphia. 45 degrees mount pocono. 49 degrees in wildwood. We expect to get to a high today of, yes, 73 degrees, 77, for tomorrow. But then, 57 degrees after the cold front comes through. Thats your friday temperature. Saturday, and sunday, we will be right around 60 both days, very seasonable, very nice, lots of sunshine, shouldnt rain over the weekends, stays that way through the early part of next week.
