some showers maybe a thunderstorm very early sunday morning. you may wake up to a rumble of thunder or some wet weather. i think the afternoon we catch a little break, could be a scattered shower or storm and then another cluster should come through later on during the day and at night giving us another chance for sh some showers and storms. any time some of these storms could be strong to severe during the day and at night on sunday so just keep that in mind. not an all day washout but if you are outside have your eyes in sky. 79 degrees at the airport, everybody pretty much in the low 70's. we're humid, though, that humid air mass continues to build in and we look at the dewpoint temperature. that sells us how much humidity is in the air. right now 69 degrees, tomorrow similar numbers upper 60's to around 70 so what does that mean to you? here's what it will feel like. it will have that oppressive feel to the air mass of the hot and humid conditions sunday which help fuel showers and storms. now much of the midatlantic is under the severe threat tomorrow. all the areas shaded in yell low. the area in orange across west virginia, ohio, that's the

best bet to see some strong to severe thunderstorms so even here especially late in the day and at night the potential for some strong damaging wind gusts, heavy rain and potential for some hail. the reason why, as the warm front moves through that purges in more humidity and heat. we have a couple disturbances ride along in the jet stream. that helps trigger showers and storms. monday still with the cold front moving through we can't rule out some showers maybe even a thunderstorm and finally monday evening, monday late we clear things out. tuesday very nice, refreshing air mass builds back in. temperatures below average near 80 degrees. let's time it out. sun morning could be showers around, maybe a thunderstorm. catch that break a little in the afternoon, could see some sunshine which could help destabilize atmosphere again. we get another cluster of those showers and storms coming in late in the evening and at night. monday morning still a threat for a few showers. threat continues into the afternoon and then finally monday neither looking much better an nice finish to the month of you'll. i'll show that you in the

seven-day forecast. but tonight partly cloudy skies, low around 72 degrees, it will be on the muggy side. here's your forecast for sunday. morning showers possible, maybe that brief break in the action, mid late morning into the afternoon and then later on d-more storm chances, it's hot, uner 80's to maybe 90 degrees depending on how much sunshine. at the shore again there's going to be storm chances there, partly sunny skies, 84 degrees for the high temperature. ocean water 72. going to be breezy, southwest winds kick up to about 20 miles per hour. so upper 80's to near 90s sunday. mid 80's monday, both days chance of showers and storms. looks great tuesday, 80 degrees for the high temperature, low humidity, plenty of sun, warm but comfortable with low humidity. nice finish to july. >> that is really nice. not a 90-degree day in there. >> no, we haven't had many this summer. >> no complaints here, justin. we appreciate that. thank you. all right, lesley, what are the eagles chances? it's never too early. >> keep talking about it and it's finally here, day one of

since he started playing football but riley was making those catches and making those plays and running after the football so i think you need to give him the credit because he made a lost plays and he made me look good last year. >> the defense is also getting a good workout today. second year with billy davis calling the shots. a few upgrades made in some positions but they'll have a lot to prove with a tougher schedule. >> everybody just being their best. we're so far along right now we're just seeking to be the best defense beck be, best defense in the league and we have the guys that are capable of doing that and going against coach kelly's offense every day really prepares us really well for the opposing offense. finally tonight penn state announced sandy barber will be the new athletic director at the school replacing retiring dave joyner. barbara was the ad at the university of california berkeley where the team wop 19
