This is seven hours plus and counting for the firefighters who got called out here in prime time. You know, you see all of these guys every day who drive around with these old beaten up pickup trucks collecting scrap metal. This is one of those companies that buys it from them. And we are in Lower Bucks County here in falls township, and there is the name of the company. This is an old u. S. Steel plant area here, it is now an industrial park, and you can see, smoke still billowing up in the lights there, and you can make out firefighters, were back from this. Chris will walk to the left now. Give you look how the smoke is going left. When we were on route one, we saw flames and smoke from miles away. So some of the drivers on the highways, bob kelly, will see this for sure. Because it is still lighting up the sky with all of the protection light. Now, chris will go to the left. Show you, follow this fire host, one of the problems they had, because this is such an isolated area, was getting water here, thats why these flames were shooting so high for so long on this big scrap pile which is everything, even shredded car board boxes and stuff there is company collects. So who knows what was burning, and thats why it is always good to stay far back, especially, when you dont know whats on fire for sure. Now, here is some video that we obtained overnight thanks to philly fire news. Com. Ryan, good video, you can see, he got fairly close and was shooting for over a half hour. And the longer he stayed, it seemed, the worst the fire got. And very visible, for miles around, since 9 00 last night, in prime time, were told. Then they called in whole lot of extra fire companies, a lot of volunteers, so theyve been here all night. We just got word, veronica manually, our excellent intern back there, just got official word they got this thing finally officially under control around 3 30. And to the right as we come back to a live picture in this booth, the first thing this guy yelled at us from the company we are not putting out any statement. Okay, thats fine. So the only statement so far is that theyre if the going to give us a statement. But as far as we know, no one got hurt by this. And well stay here all morning and see if this thing eventually gets completely out. But we just want to alert everybody in this is the area. You see this from miles around, karen.

Officers pursued that suspect, then he drives into a ditch. Thats where they catch up to him. Ran off the road right there. They took him into custody about an hour later.

Over to a check of the weather, no matter where you are in the delaware valley, it will be fab, sue. Yes, one more sunny day, High Pressure in control. Were still watching this system down to our south. Thats staying nearby and probably going to come back and visit us as a warmfront. But as we go through the rest of the day, High Pressure will get closer to the coast. And eventually, we will switch to southwesterly winds. Eventually, that means, the humidity will come back. But for most of the day today i think it will remain pretty comfortable so we dont have any rain to show you, even close to us, and nothing in our area. So we jump ahead to friday morning. We see that it is probably going to be cloudy when we get started on friday, which is by the way tomorrow, and then in the afternoon, weve got some rain rolling in. Probably in the overniht hours. It picks up in intensity. Heres saturday morning, with unfortunately a chance of some rain, maybe some thunderstorms popping up in the afternoon. Thats when the rain is most likely over the weekends, although we have a chance on sunday, as well, what can i do . 69 degrees in philadelphia, 53 mount pocono, 63 in wildwood, and 62 degrees in lancaster. Winds are calm everywhere. Lets check yesterdays high temperature, and compare to the average, 86 is the average, we got right there, and we will probably be around 85 today. So, another ten, we will gave you a eight for tomorrow. With increasing clouds, and i dont think well see too much rain, if we do, it is very late in the day. Chance of thunderstorms on saturday, and the humidity comes back even though it is cooler, and then it will be a little warmer on sunday, with some clouds around, another chance of showers on monday, and then, by the middle of next week, it is looking beautiful once again. Speaking of beautiful, you get some good music, you get your forecast, all on 101. 1 more fm. You said beautiful when i was coming in. Oh,. It is bb, beautiful bob. Good morning, everybody, were in rare form today. 4 17. No problems on the major roadways, a lot of construction out there, the turnpike, boulevard, 95, but lets zoom on in to that fire location, that steve was just talking about the scrap yard fire here along steel road in morrisville, right here, on basically what you could look almost like an island, tyburn road the only road to get in you there. But again, you are going to see that glow from south jersey, the bucks county side, even coming over the turnpike connector bridge, again, thats whats burning right here in morrisville, to kind of give you an idea almost like a Little Island there along steel road. So, i dont think it will impact traffic a lot this morning, other than the gaper delays, as we roll out of the driveway. Crews working on the schuylkill from conshy all the way into belmont. Only the left lane is open. So just be prepared for. That will theyve been out there until about 5 00 the last couple of days, then youll have one even nice smooth surface in the left lane, and the right lane will be a little rock i. Theyve been paving, seems like, every single street here, in the fairmount section, callowhill, spring garden, girard avenue, a lot of the cross streets, as well, theyre still out from last night. Theyll take a little bit after break. Then another crew will come back at about 7 00 this morning, in west philly, chestnut street. Get ready for the new traffic pattern in the bike lanes between 34th and 45th. So see some delays with construction crews out there today. And then, that water main break from monday, down here in south philadelphia, three lanes block on the southbound side of broad street. Just off of the broad street exit for the schuylkill. So, that could cause some delays for the gang headed to the phillies game later on tonight. Karen, back over to you. Thank you there, bob. This was very dangerous situation in west chester. The problem all started underground. But then quickly became an issue for all of the people that were above grounds, and in the neighborhood.
