If you use 422 westbound they have relocate that had off ramp out there at arm and hammer boulevard interchange. Still got that down tree route 130 south on the ramp to 73, and in the neighborhood that brief storm that rolled through here around dinner time kind of left a lot of down tree branches and leaves and those wet leaves packed down on the roadway. Abington, north hills and spruce avenue watch for a crash, also an accident on the roosevelt boulevard at adams avenue. Were all eyes are on this potential septa vining. What is contingency plan . We have it for you right now. It is going to be bad. It will a affect me. It will be back. It will be bad, really bad. What will do you if septa workers go on strike tomorrow . I know you will be bracing for the worst. Today very well could be last day to ride septa for a while. Right now they are still meeting and they are still talking so at least that is encouraging. The lets get to lauren where all that is going on in center city, lauren, good morning. Reporter good morning. So nothing just yet, for inside the sheraton, center city where they have been negotiating all weekend long trying to reach a deal. What does it boil down to . Well, money, of course and specifically pensions, Health Care Costs and coverage and Public Safety issues as well. Who is affect by all this . More than 5,000 septa bus drivers, trolley and subway operators and if they are off the job more than 575,000 transit riders will be scrambling come tomorrow morning. I wont be able to get to work because i use Public Transportation for everything and to think they have no backup systems for something because it has happened before, it is, really bad. Every time they are negotiating contract it always happened. I wish that they could do something that is final, once and for all and so people can get to work. Reporter these negotiations started back in july. One of the big sticking points is Public Safety concerns like brakes for drivers and operators. Union says in some cases, they dont get breaks long enough for them to use the rest room and the fatigue could be really dangerous for the riders. Now, if there is a strike, there is a Service Interruption guide posted on septas web site and the strike could force ride tours get creative with car pooling or maybe even using uber, lyft, taxis. Any of those options, karen and thomas. This could be interesting come tomorrow morning. Never fun shelling out extra bucks though. Anything can happen. Lauren, thank you you. In the backfield prescott, throws, wide opened jason witten to win the game. Boo. An epic battle for first place in the the nfc east and eagles came up short, despite a tenpoint lead in the Fourth Quarter, Philadelphia Eagles just could not seal the deal, losing to the Dallas Cowboys in overtime. The final, 2923 and rivalry between the two is going strong. That is compass approximating, what happened, lets get out to steve keeley and hear what people are saying this morning, steve. Reporter everybody has a different reason why they lost and here is one of the reasons. The lets go to this low light. Lets go to the Fourth Quarter. When dell small wood the rookie running back gets one carry on the evening, it is not until Fourth Quarter and his hand got cold sitting on the bench because you could see, he fumble is it, and a very key fumble because it gives cowboys great field position and even though eagles defense came up big, hold them to a three and out, it was close enough furkow boys to if the a field goal and they pulled within a touchdown 2316. You are watching, this is a torture us night on television because you we are seeing eagles win sleeping away. I think Doug Pederson did some terrible play calling. We have to start throwing the deep ball. I thought we played great. We had a awesome chance to win right there. Turnovers and couple costly penalties at the end of the the game but im proud of the way team played. We have a game in hand when you have a tenpoint lead you are in the supposed to lose. Reporter one of the worst parts of seeing jason witten touchdown in overtime that we keep showing over and over is seeing jerry jones celebrate in the box. That is cowboys sixth win in a row. They are now in first place by two games. Another division rival for eagles next week on the road again but not too far on the road that road being the new jersey turnpike. They play the giants and the nfc east right the now, karen and thomas does not have any team with the losing rorrer. Everybody thought this division would stink. Both giant and eagles at fourthree. If you got it up early you saw the redskins tying a game, second tie this year, after overtime, but i guess eagles fans would rather have had a tie in their game as well. Maybe not though. But these ties are ridiculous. You will see this will be last season that the nfl allows tie games. They will do it like playoffs and just play until you win. That is right. It is like soccer, tie, it is so frustrating. Lets get to a developing story right now. We know that a pedestrian has died after being struck by a car this happened in west hampton, new jersey about 9 30 last night on the 600 block of rancocas road.

Fbi made discovery while investigating weiners alleged sexting with the minor. Sources say underlying meta data suggest these messages could have been sent to or from the private server that clinton used that while she was secretary of state. To me chris, this has to be a substantial development. I just dont see director comey opening this backup 11 days before the election also this it is quite serious. I think this was a terrible error in judgment by the director to release this ambiguous letter, maybe, pertinent, they may be significant, they may not be significant they may not be pertinent.
