your full forecast coming up. >> a new york city firefighter shot twice this morning in the leg. why would anybody open fire on a firefighter? well, the u.s. marshals were trying to arrest this guy, and he started a fire. and he had a gun, and he started shooting. the firefighter was shot twice. he's expected to be okay. the gunman is still in that residence. the hostage negotiating team is on the scene. >> an earthquake hit somerset county at 3:41 this morning, it's a bit unusual for us to have a big earthquake here. >> the legionnaires' disease situation not over yet. we have no new cases, but with, look, this is the worst situation we've seen in four decades, and some people very critical about how the city handles this so far. >> people also can't stop talking about that not-so-accurate sketch of tom brady, you know, the one from

the courtroom just a few days ago? some of the top courtroom artists in the country are joining us to share their experience and their opinion on this controversy. >> they're also going to do some drawings for us. want to go back live to staten island. a new york city firefighter shot responding -- he was trying to put out a fire. it's an ongoing scene. i think we have a live look there now. guy's inside a residence holed up. at this point it's a bit of a standoff. the u.s. marshals showed up to arrest this individual, we're not sure on what charges or anything like that. he started shooting and then tried to set a fire. firefighters were notified, the fire department, they responded, and then he shot one of the firefighters twice in the leg. we're trying to recall one of the last time one of new york's bravest was shot in the line of duty can. certainly not in recent memory. >> this is a situation, this is a scene, rather, from a few blocks away. they are keeping everybody a few

blocks away because it is such an active scene. >> makes sense. let's do some weather with mike. >> good morning. >> good morning. we're ready for the weekend here. sunny skies coming up and very warm temperatures, too, in fact, it gets warmer and warmer as we head into the weekend. the humidity will be making a comeback as well. yep, we're not done with summer by any means. everyone will be talking about it next week. 71 out at newark as well as central park, 65 degrees right now for you in islip, 69 in bridgeport. montauk's checked in with the warm spot at 74 right now, and 57's the cool spot in monticello as well as sussex. dewpoints higher, 57 degrees out at newark. it's higher than it was earlier this morning, but still as long as it's around 55 or less, we're not in bad shape, but it's starting to creep up, and that continue as we get into the weekend. clear skies around the tristate because high pressure's in control and some nice firm, dry

ridge of high pressure that we have blocking for the time being. eventually, this area of low pressure, that warm and cold front, they're going to try to work their way into the northeast. clouds and showers but only for a few folks. most of us get away with a nice dry and pretty hot weekend, hot and humid. 86 for a high today. not bad at all. the humidity's still not a challenge just yet, but it is going to pick up as the days go on. a high of 89 tomorrow. there's a small chance that a few showers could pop up to the northwest because of that approaching weak cold front, but i don't think we'll get too much out of it. as we head into sunday and monday, high temps 90 on sunday, 91 on monday, 90 again on tuesday. humid through that stretch. if we do get three days in a row, which it looks like a decent chance, we'll have is a heat wave for the first time. again, the heat wave, something we just haven't seen in a couple of years, so really something more to talk about. it's not that much different

than what we are going to see one way or another. ines has a question -- >> is this possible heat advisories coming in? >> not quite. i don't think we're quite there. >> no? okay. just wondering. here's what's going on on the cross bronx eastbound by jerome avenue. traffic jammed, actually, the bronx road parkway, because of an accident by jerome, so you have this delay back to the bruckner. on the eastbound side, you're moving pretty good. grand central parkway, traffic slow in front of laguardia, there's an accident by's tore ya boulevard d astoria boulevard. trains are running on or close. teresa, greg? >> thank you. let's go to staten island once situation. a firefighter shot twice in the leg responding to a fire as the u.s. marshals were trying to arrest the guy inside the house. >> this is the mariner's harbor section of staten island --

>> and it's ongoing right now. lydia she ran that is on the scene with more. what's going on? >> this is still a very active, very busy scene, you've got dozens of firefighters and police officers, emergency responders as well as hostage negotiators. we even saw several police officers with machine guns. this is the scene right here down behind me and as you mentioned, greg, that suspect is still holed inside the home at 15 destiny court. this all started around 6:00 this morning. the u.s. marshal service came out here to issue an arrest are warrant, meaning they wanted to arrest the man, take him into custody. a source tells me that hand has a long rap sheet, there was some sort of parole violation, but this guy has a very long rap sheet. so they went in to arrest this guy, and unbeknownst, no one realized, he had a weapon, and he started firing at police officers. and all of a sudden he set fire

to the home at 15 destiny court. that's when firefighters came out here to ballot the blaze, and in the -- battle the blaze, and in the middle of fighting the fire, that's when that firefighter was shot twice in the leg. we are hearing he is in serious but stable condition. we've seen dozens and dozens of emergency vehicles out here. we're just a few blocks away. we have been told also earlier that the suspect was firing back at police officers sporadically, but he hasn't done that in quite some time. but, again, the hostage negotiator is still out here because that suspect is still holed up inside. that's the latest out here, back to you in the studio. >> thanks, lidia. again, a firefighter shot twice in the leg. he is expected to be okay. we're not sure why this individual, they were attempting to arrest him, but we can't remember the last time this has happened to a firefighter. >> in other news this morning, there was a minor earthquake this morning in new jersey. >> okay. 3:45 this morning.

what was it on the old richter scale as we used to call it? >> a 2.5, is what they say. >> okay. that's pretty minor. about 130 reports or so of shaking buildings, that kind of thing. across 41 zip codes. of course, earthquakes in our area, for whatever reason, are quite rare. about four years ago there was one all the way down in virginia that we could feel here in new york city. evacuated buildings. you see people like, what's going on here? they got out fast. i remember that one. i was in the building, though, and i did not feel it. >> i don't remember feeling it either. >> lots of people did, and you could actually see the shake anything that unimage. last night was -- one image. >> you're right, greg, in other places where they have earthquakes all the time, they kind of expect it. for us, it is certainly jarring. >> we have a shooting in brooklyn just after 8:00 last night along saratoga avenue, a

school. the shot spotter system picked up gunfire, we're told. that's a new system that, i results. police arrived, they found three men with gunshot wounds a21-year-old was pronounced dead. >> an 18 and 20-year-old were both shot in the arm. they are in stable condition. we haven't heard of any arrests in this case. >> legionnaires' disease, the worst outbreak in 40 years, is it over yet? >> well, the mayor says it's all control. no new patients have tested positive since this outbreak was 3rd. >> all right, robert moses has more. hi, robert. >> greg and teresa, good morning. we've heard from the city before that the outbreak had been contained, and then the death toll ticked up. but the mayor says this time the city has turned a corner and is now taking steps to prevent an outbreak like this from happening in the future. >> i'm very proud, proud of all

of you. >> mayor de blasio thanked health care workers at lincoln hospital in the south bronx for their efforts to contain the legionnaires' outbreak. 12 of 121 people infected in the city have died. the mayor says the worst legionnaires' outbreak in the city's history is now under control. >> no brand new cases since august 3rd, so now a full ten days since we've seen a new case. >> last week city health commissioner dr. mary bassett ordered every building owner in the five boroughs who has a water cooling tower to have it inspected and disinfected by next week. it's believed emissions from a cooling tower from one of five buildings in the south bronx is the source of the outbreak. the city is expecting test results in about a week to determine the exact building. according to the city, every building in the bronx affected by the outbreak has already been disinfected. yesterday the city council passed legislation that will require buildings with cooling

towers to register with the city and have them inspected and cleaned every three months. >> we'll require that all cooling towers in the city be registered with the department of buildings so we know how many there are and where they are. >> you heard the mayor refer to ten days. ten days is significant because that is the incubation period for this disease. now, a bit of stage craft at that news conference yesterday. the city has come under fire for its handling of legionnaires' and perhaps to answer some of those critics, representatives from the cdc were present, took many questions, and he had many kind things to say about how the city has responded. greg and teresa, back to you. >> all right, thanks a lot. so it was a week ago last night we all watched that debate, 17 or so republicans, two debates. it was really wild. it was great tv, and there have been huge political ramifications. one of my favorite moment, though, donald trump being wallace. watch this. >> four times i've taken

advantage of the laws and, frankly, so has everybody else in my position. >> well, sir, let's just talk about the latest example -- [applause] which is trump entertainment resorts which went bankrupt in 2009. in that case alone, lenders to your company lost over a billion dollars and more than 1100 people were laid off. >> well -- >> is that the way that -- >> let me tell you about the lenders. first of all, these lenders aren't babies, these are total killers. these are not the nice, sweet little people that you think, okay? [laughter] you know, you're living in the make believe, chris, you want to know the truth -- [cheers and applause] >> chris wallace joins us now. i thought you were great, megyn, bret, anyway, seriously, congratulations. >> thank you. thank you. look, i know some people we've gotten some blow black, but we were -- blowback on it, and you can't talk about his government record, you can't talk about votes he took or decision he made as a government.

all you can talk about is his business record, and i thought the four bankruptcies of trump companies was a legitimate question. >> quite frankly, i thought his answer was good too. some people think he won the debate, not everybody 789 teresa, what have you got to say to chris? >> especially when it comes to the debate, a lot of people think he's saying the things a lot of people aren't willing to say, and we saw that throughout the debate, chris. >> well, i think that is exactly right. and, again, this is one of those cases where with trump he says things. what he said in the debate, what he said about john mccain,

what he said about illegal >> that's a powerful emotional

factor -- incidentally, we're going to be talking, on sunday we'll have an interview with ben carson, the retired neurosurgeon who is also surging to the front of the poll toes. we'll talk to trey trey gowdy, and we will have the first fox news poll since the debate, republican side, democratic side, horse races between hillary clinton and some of the leading republicans. so you'll get the very latest on fox news sunday. >> and, chris, there's even a report that potentially al gore might want to jump into the mix, and he's getting the boys together because of what's happening with hillary clinton. we'll see -- >> al gore, have you heard this? wait, vice president al gore, the one who lost to w.? he's going to get in? >> well, there's a report on buzzfield, which i must -- buzzfeed, which i must say a lot of people on a variety of web sites are knocking down. what this speaks to, very quickly, is the fact that because of clinton's problems with the private e-mails, with the clinton foundation w the

mishandling of classified information, there's a growing nervousness about her, and suddenly democrats were saying we thought she was a sure thing for the nomination, now they're not so sure. and so, you know, everybody looks unless mirror and says maybe i could be president. [laughter] >> well, we don't do that, we can tell you that. >> all right, chris, thanks a lot. have a good show, and again, great job. >> thank you, chris. >> thank you. >> catch chris on sunday. >> all right. so the pope is coming to town next month, september 24 and 25th. two days, two very hectic days here mt. city. he will tour the world trade center, he will say mass at st. patrick's, he will address the u.n. general assembly and then another big mass at madison square garden. >> and officials, as you might imagine, have been planning this for a while. his visit is, by the way, happening at the same time as the u.n. general assembly and a visit by president obama. >> president obama's going to be in town. wow --

>> you imagine the traffic mess that is going to create? >> it's going to be intense. let's will be -- let's listen to this. >> it will be a challenge for us because he tends to mingle a lot more than we advise our personnel, people that we protect to do while we're here. >> okay. >> commissioner bratton is saying that the pope is going to attract an extra two million visitors to our area. many are going to want to get up close and personal with us. probably nobody will. >> oh, yeah? i already got tickets to something. >> you did? yes. i don't know if we're going to get an audience with the holy father, but we're working on it. nj transit is urging people to stay off the roads. if you've got to travel, take mass transit. >> let's just hope they've got their stuff together. >> that's right, they've had -- >> big issues. >> doing well. we've got a lot of sunshine and a beautiful friday. a great way to go into the weekend, and it's pretty much

going to stay in this way, so we're in good shape. 71 degrees, that's your temp in central park. dewpoint still sitting at 54 beautifully clear around the northeast region in general. not much coming up right now, it's way over here to the northwest that we have an area of low pressure. cold front, warm front, it's all kind of coming together, and that will try to bring us something tomorrow, but today high pressure's brocking everything out -- blocking everything out. it's going to be warmer than yesterday but not quite as warm as over the weekend. high pressure starts to drift offshore, you get more of a southerly flow, and it picks up that heat and humidity. by tomorrow afternoon it does get fairly hot, but the humidity builds in on sunday. there's a little chance of a shower as that weak cold front approaches, but probably doesn't have enough to punch into the tristate. just a slight chance northwest of showers tomorrow afternoon, then it gets out of town sunday, but that heat and humidity will

be building in, and they're going to stick around into the beginning of the next workweek. sunny skies, 83 by noon, high temp going up to 86. 89's your high tomorrow. then it gets hot and humid, highs around 90, 91 sunday through tuesday and a chance of showers and storms coming through here tuesday into wednesday. the fox 5ny weather app is at the itunes store and google and it's free. you can put it to work at any point in time. by the way, want to send out a big congratulations to these gals right here, this is the mount olive travel girls' softball team. they took second place at the babe ruth softball world series down in florida, so congratulations, ladies. nice job. you got to be proud of yourselves. let's brick in ines rosales right now. right? >> yeah. that's really cool. congratulations. here's what's going on, a look at the staten island expressway, traffic moving fine eastbound,

no problems westbound. let's check the george washington bridge, heading towards the bridge, you're fine on the upper and lower level. as far as the lincoln tunnel traveling on 495, no issues traveling inbound. take a look, things slow down after kennedy, it's a 20 minute delay. holland tunnel, 20 from both approaches. teresa, greg? >> check out our new friend. who do you got here, pal? >> what is that? >> this is a king ca yahoo!. >> your name? >> danny menendez. >> welcome to good day new york. you're here from new jersey? >> new jersey exotic pets. >> is this going to be met out in the wild? >> no, he's tropical, he's not a fan of the winter, and he's full grown right now. >> he's actually hugging you. >> he lives up in a tree, so he's always really comfortable holding onto something, and he's also nocturnal, so this is pushing, you know -- >> affectionate? >> yes, very affectionate. >> until he bites you.

>> and they're venomous -- no, i'm kidding. [laughter] >> what? >> cute. that would mean bad things for me. good stuff. you brought friends? >> i did. >> danny, thank you very much. nice to meet you. feel like a kid again with dunkin's new cookie-flavored iced coffees. for a limited time, dd perks members can enjoy any sized iced coffee for $1.99. america runs on dunkin'.

the beef is more expensive, and sometimes they don't have the pork because of the issue with the suppliers. they are getting it back, but it's a day by day thing for now. >> the place is extremely popular. the lines sometimes turn me off, but if there's no line at 11:00, i'll go right in. thanks a lot, lauren. once again, we've got a staten island. fighter. he actually shot at a firefighter who was hit twice in the leg. a new york city firefighter this morning shot in the leg responding to a fire. that this man set deliberately. >> a 54-year-old firefighter, we are being told, and he's expected to recover from his injuries, but a very active scene. all hands on deck here. >> the gunman is still inside holed up, armed, dangerous can.

it is not amounting to much. spotty showers primary to the west. the heat and humidity is left over and stuck with from sunday on. today is warm, high up to 86 in the city. nice and mild tonight and mostly clear skies and lows between 62-70 and throughout the next 7 days a shower chance to northwest tomorrow and then we have got the sunny, hot, humid weather sunday through wednesday and shower chances on tuesday and wednesday. all right, now to ines rosales and okay. getting well into friday now and commute, there you go. ines: problems right now. it is a busy weekend with the commute and the get away. this is eastbound by the eastbound. grand central parkway delays in

front of la guardia airport. the accident is cleared away but a traffic jam. 59th street bridge, traffic is moving fine manhattan bound. the lower level just a few cars. lincoln tunnel 495 moving fine. after kennedy it slows down a little. 30 minutes. bus lanes are moving slow. the holland tunnel by the way is 20 minutes. grand central parkway slow here by jewel avenue. di lays back to the long island expressway. and delays on the van wyck. as far as the trains, running on or close to schedule. >> greg: thank you. once again, the top story a new york city firefighter is shot this morning in the line of duty. responding to a fire on staten island. shot twice in the leg.

he's expected to be okay. teresa: we don't know the name of the firefighter, he's a 54-year-old person. we understand there is a significant police presence there and hostage negotiates are on the scene and attempting to contact the suspect. there? >> family and friends of the suspect and crying and very upset, we have learned the name of the suspect and he's garland tyree. first described as someone as a petty criminal. i looked at the facebook page, i want to show you something here, this is disturbing, half hour after the shooting began, he wrote, if you can see that, he wrote today i die. and then you sigh a lot of people commenting and saying no, no, no. this started around 6:00 this morning.

if you want to take a look at the scene, 15 destiny court. the u.s. marshalls have come to the home and came to arrest him. i'm being told it was on a parole violation and all of a sudden he started shoot. the police backed off. then a fire started at the home. fdny came out to battle the blaze and while battling the fire the suspect started to fire and he shot one firefighters twice in the leg. that firefighter is expected to be okay. he's in serious but stable condition. as you can see here, a lot of emergency responders here and hostage negotiates and firefighters are here. police officers with machine guns as well. earlier the suspect was firing some shots erratically but that hasn't happened for quite some time. the suspect was talking to police officers over the phone as well.

the police have been trying to get him out peacefully. right no, no communication with him. scene.we'll bring you more information as soon as we receive it. greg: thank you very much. the individual you identified garland tyroo. he's ceo and founder of real write publishing. today i die. you know,he's held up there. we heard from the family, friends of his telling him please don't do this. there is a way out. surrender. if you are watching television, don't hurst anyone or yourself, come out with your hands up. teresa: this happened around 6:00 a.m. and he posted that about two hours ago. we are staying on top of this.

this is a live look at the enormous police presence and response there. greg: new york city firefighter shot in the leg. much more on that coming up. >> we are going to cuba. today they are officially opening the embassy, the u.s. embassy in cuba. they are going to raise the american flag over the u.s. imu imu -- embassy in cuba. >> secretary of state john kerry will be there. >> and marines too. they are the same marines that lowered the flag. they found these guys and it is appropriate. they had lowered the flag and now raising the flag. as you know, relations between america and cuba have some what normalized. you can travel. teresa: that is the hope,

families being reunited and connected and relations normalized and a diplomatic relationship helping the parties in future. greg: now to danny with another animal. teresa: the last one was fiesty. is this a -- >> it is a skunk. greg: thank you, danny. teresa: point it that way. >> this is designer skunk. greg: it is more atrackive. >> it is cool. >> will it spray on me? >> be very nice to him. no, they are descented. they are not wild skunks. these are captive. they are born from a breeder. greg: what type of pets do they make? >> excellent pets. they don't smell like you think that do. they are inactive.

greg: danny, you have more friends, right? >> i have plenty of friends. greg: great. thank you. we'll be right back. >> right now there's no hope for kids in new york city's failing public schools. under the current administration, it is two years of school down the drain. the news is getting worse every day. from day one, the deblasio administration and the chancellor have not had the best interests of the students as their top priority. the first thing they did was back up to truck and award teachers union new contracts and pay raises. now, the new york post has reporting a seemingly endless system of fraud in the school system social promotion and the grade. kids are allowed to take a
