GAS PRICES IN FLORIDA WENT UP FOR THE 33RD DAY IN ROW TODAY.

THE PRICE FOR REGULAR UNLEADED COULD TOP 4-DOLLARS A GALLON *SOON*!

LOCAL FUEL COMPANIES SAY PART OF THE REASON GAS COSTS MORE IN FLORIDA IS BECAUSE SHIPPING PRICES SPIKED HERE

GAS PRICES IMPACT-LIVE U

THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS CONTRIBUTING.

YOU CAN SEE THE PRICE HERE NOW _____

ITS RISEN ABOUT 15 CENTS IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS.

GAS PRICES IMPACT-PKG

22:57 i think its a little ridiculous 22:59

GAS PRICES SO HIGH--SOME SAY THEY'LL WALK.

3:20:14 i walk a lot during the days when im not working 20;16

THERE'S LOTS OF MOTIVATION BEHIND THE CHANGING NUMBERS.

AND IN FLORIDA ONE ISSUE--MAY CAUSE THE HIGH PRICES--TO STICK AROUND.

nats of pump

58:00 I think florida is feeling it a little more than it would because of the barging problem 58:05

LOCAL FUEL COMPANIES SAY SHIPPING COSTS HAVE TRIPLED OVER THE PAST YEAR.

ITS BECAUSE OF THE JONES ACT.

IT ALLOWS LESS FOREIGN SHIPS TO HELP CARRY FUEL TO COASTAL REFINERIES THAN BRING FUEL TO FLORIDA.

BUT ITS JUST ONE PROBLEM THAT'S BOLSTERING PRICES.

nats hello aaa

8:54 we're seeing a rise so quickly in prices we believe it has to do with Iran and also the good economy in china and in eruope 9:02

ALL OF THE PROBLEMS--LEAVING DRIVERS POCKETS MORE EMPTY AT FLORIDA PUMPS.

GAS PRICES IMPACT-LIVE U

LOCAL FUEL COMPANIES BELIEVE THE SHIPMENT ISSUES WILL SUBSIDE BY MARCH.

BUT SAY--THEY EXPECT GAS PRICES TO KEEP GOING UP.

THEY BELIEVE PRICES HERE IN OUR AREA WILL HIT AS HIGH AS 4.25 BEFORE GOING BACK DOWN.

DRIVING PERMITS-VO WIPE

FLORIDA IS SCRAMBLING TO *UNDO* A NEW STATE LAW--

THAT'S CAUSING A LOT OF HEADACHES FOR FOREIGN TOURISTS.

THE LEGISLATURE PASSED A LAW LAST YEAR--

REQUIRING FOREIGN TRAVELERS TO GET AN "INTERNATIONAL" DRIVING PERMIT--

BEFORE THEY DRIVE IN FLORIDA.

FLORIDA IS NOT ENFORCING THE LAW--

BUT CANADIAN AUTHORITIES ARE CONCERNED THAT AS LONG AS THE LAW IS IN PLACE--

IT COULD CREATE INSURANCE PROBLEMS FOR ANY TOURIST INVOLVED IN A CAR CRASH.

DRIVING PERMITS-SOTVO

"Here in Florida we get visitors from all over the world, which is great, but law enforcement has to respond to emergencies and if a license is in a language they don't understand and a format they don't understand, it can become very difficult for them to be able to respond appropriately.

NEARLY 4-MILLION CANADIANS TRAVELED TO FLORIDA LAST YEAR.

MCINTYRE VERDICT-VO

A GUILTY VERDICT TODAY IN A LEE COUNTY DOUBLE MURDER --

DUSTIN McINTYRE WAS ONE OF TWO MEN WHO BEAT, AND STRANGLING TWO MEN, PUT THEIR BODIES IN A CAR AND TORCHED IT.

PROSECUTORS SAY MCINTYRE KILLED DANIEL LEONOR SO HE WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY HIM FOR COCAINE.

THE OTHER VICTIM, ISRAEL PONCE JUST HAPPENED TO BE IN THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME.

FELON PROGRAMS-VO

TWO STATE LAWMAKERS SAY THEY HAVE A PLAN--

TO HELP STOP THE "REVOLVING DOOR" AT FLORIDA PRISONS.

THEY FILED LEGISLATION THAT WOULD OFFER MORE DRUG TREATMENT--

AND VOCATIONAL TRAINING--

TO NON-VIOLENT CRIMINALS.

TWO OF EVERY FIVE INMATES ARE RE-OFFENDERS.

PREGNANCY CIVIL RIGHTS-VO

TWO FLORIDA LAWMAKERS ALSO FILED BILL TO PROTECT WOMEN FROM WORKPLACE DISCRIMINATION.

NAEISHA SANDERS, A SINGLE MOTHER, CLAIMS SHE WAS FIRED FOR BEING PREGNANT.

LAWMAKERS CLAIM THERE ARE TOO MANY LOOPHOLES IN STATE LAW.

SEAFARERS MALL-VO WIPE

TOMORROW THE FORT MYERS BEACH COUNCIL PLANS TO DISCUSS THE OLD SEAFARER'S MALL PROPERTY.

LEE COUNTY OWNS THE VACANT LOT AT THE FOOT OF THE MATANZAS PASS BRIDGE.

ONE COUNCILMAN WANTS TO TEMPORARY LEASE THE LAND FOR PARKING-- FOR BUSINESSES THAT SAY EMPLOYEES HAVE NO WHERE TO PARK--

SEAFARERS MALL-SOT, ON CAM

I think it's very unfair, and if the commissioners would, consider key card access and rent the businesses whatever spaces they need

FORT MYERS BEACH COUNCIL IS SCHEDULED TO MEET WITH COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TOMORROW--

OBAMA DEFICIT NEWSER-SOTVO

IN JUST 10 DAYS--

85 BILLION DOLLARS IN AUTOMATIC FEDERAL SPENDING CUTS GO INTO EFFECT.

TODAY PRESIDENT OBAMA WARNED--

CONGRESS MUST NOT ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN.

These cuts are not smart. They are not fair. They will hurt our economy. They will add hundreds of thousands of Americans to the unemployment rolls. This is not an abstraction. People will lose their jobs.

THE CUTS ARE COMING BECAUSE CONGRESS CAN'T AGREE ON A NEW PLAN TO SLICE THE BUDGET DEFICIT.

REPUBLICANS ARE ALSO OPPOSED TO THE AUTOMATIC SPENDING CUTS.

BUT SAY THE PRESIDENT HAS TO COME UP WITH CUTS --

NASA LOSES CONTACT ISS-SOTVO

NASA HAS *LOST* COMMUNICATION WITH THE International Space Station.

You know it's not a panicked mood that takes over Mission Control. Anybody who has been here has seen that. I mean these guys have procedures to do this and the crew has procedures.

NBC-2'S CHARLIE KEEGAN EXPLAINS WHY THE STATE CHOSE TO DO THE WORK--

CONSTRUCTION HURTS BSNS-PKG

IT'S LOUD, IT'S DUSTY, AND IT'S KEEPING CUSTOMERS AWAY.

"No one wants to sit out here and listen to these guys with saws going and jackhammers going." Bill Minerich, Jack's on Marion

SITTING IN A ROW OF EMPTY SEATS, BILL MINERICH WAS EXPECTING BIG BUSINESS AT HIS RESTAURANT THIS SEASON - THAT ALL CHANGED.

Nats

AS CREWS STARTED DIGGING UP THE SIDEWALKS DOWNTOWN, CUSTOMERS STOPPED VISITING JACK'S ON MARION.

"My outside business is non-esistent" Bill Minerich, Jack's on Marion

MINERICH CLAIMS SINCE IT STARTED LAST MONTH, HIS LUNCH BUSINESS DROPPED 60 PERCENT.

HE WANTS TO KNOW WHY THE STATE IS DOING THE WORK DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY IN PEAK SEASON.

STANDUP "The work has been pushed back several times. Most recently the state agreed to wait until after the Christmas season to start work because the city's Christmas tree was right here in the middle of the construction zone."

THE STATE SAYS IT DOES CONSTRUCTION YEAR-ROUND.

IN THIS CASE, CREWS DID WORK OVERNIGHT WHEN THEY NEEDED TO CLOSE A LANE OF TRAFFIC.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN THERE WON'T BE A TEMPORARY INCONVENIENCE, BUT THE STATE SAYS THE END RESULT - IMPROVED RAMPS AND PEDESTRAIN SIGNALS - IS WORTH IT.

"it's really hurting my outside bar business tremendously." Bill Minerich, Jack's on Marion

A FRUSTRATED MINERICH SAYS WITH THE CONSTRUCTION AFFECTING HIS BOTTOM LINE, HE MIGHT HAVE TO LAY OFF EMPLOYEES THIS SUMMER.

"We need to be putting away money and building customers for the summer season. That's hard to do when you have this going on in the background." Bill Minerich, Jack's on Marion

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

WARM WEATHER

Southwest Florida should continue to enjoy pleasant weather for the next few days. A limited amount of moisture is over the state to produce isolated showers this afternoon and early evening - but the steering winds from the southwest should keep most of the activity well east of I-75. The rest of the evening will be partly cloudy and our low tomorrow morning will be around 60 degrees. Starting tomorrow you will notice a little increase in our humidity and clouds will be around throughout the day. A weak cold front will wash-out as it crosses the state on Wednesday and very little, if any, rain is expected. Our afternoon high will hit 82 degrees tomorrow as the front passes with little fanfare. In fact, looking at computer guidance for the rest of the week it looks like we will continue to warm each day into the mid 80's and keep our overnight lows in the 60's. A breeze off the Gulf of Mexico will likely hold the beach temperatures in the upper 70's to around 80 for the rest of the week. Gulf water has cooled into the upper 60's.

NEWTOWN INVESTIGATION-PKG

"If you find articles about the worst mass murder in history in guys game room, your going to start to wonder"

CITING LAW ENFORCEMENT SOURCES. THE HARTFORD COURANT REPORTS THAT INVESTIGATORS UNCOVERED SEVERAL NEWS PAPER ACCOUNTS IN ADAM LANZA'S BEDROOM.

THEY DETAIL THE 20-11 ATTACK IN NORWAY BY ANDERS BREIVIK--

THAT KILLED 77 PEOPLE. MOST OF THOSE VICTIMS TEENAGERS.

SOURCES TELL THE PAPER THAT INTEREST IN BREIVIK IS JUST ONE OF SEVERAL THEORIES INVESTIGATORS SHARED WITH FEDERAL AUTHORITIES DURING A RECENT BRIEFING ON THE CASE.

THE COURANT IS ALSO REPORTING THAT LANZA -- HAD AN EXTENSIVE COLLECTION OF VIOLENT VIDEO GAMES.

"I mean violent video games, graphically violent video games don't make you turn into violence if that's not your predisposition. but this kid had a lot going on and when it came time for him to carry out this terrible rampage, he did it in the way he was accustomed to.

MUCH OF THE NEW EVIDENCE WAS APPARENTLY FOUND IN LANZA'S BEDROOM, IN THE NEWTOWN HOME HE SHARED WITH HIS MOTHER NANCY LANZA - HIS FIRST VICTIM.

THEIR RELATIONSHIP IS EXPLORED IN FRONTLINE'S NEW FILM, "RAISING ADAM LANZA" PREMIERING TONIGHT ON PBS.

Nat sot Nancy: "Adam do your doggie bark."

"How did he do with all the kids around."

IN THE FUTURE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO DRIVE STRAIGHT FROM THE INTERSTATE TO THE AIRPORT.

RIGHT NOW DRIVERS MUST NAVIGATE THROUGH STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC SIGNALS AND TURN LANES.

THIS WILL GIVE DRIVERS ANOTHER OPTION TO AND FROM R-S-W.

A 54-MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT, THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION IS PICKING UP THE TAB.

AIMING TO FINISH BY THE SPRING OF 20-15.

Chad: "So do you think building a direct connect is a good idea or a bad idea?" Clay: "I think it's a good idea, it will draw traffic away from here."

IT WILL TAKE DRIVERS *OFF* BEN HILL GRIFFIN PARKWAY AND TREELINE AVENUE.

AN ARTIST REDENERING SHOWS THE FLYOVER THAT WILL LEAD DIRECTLY TO TERMINAL ACCESS ROAD.
