there's an engineer error that could lead to potential danger. >> we believe that positive train control if installed and operational, it would have prevented this accident. >> reporter: a day after the crash a house appropriations committee approved a $250 million budget cut for amtrak. now a house transportation committee will hold a hearing to re-evaluate funding for the rail agency. senator bob casey was on face the nation saying congress should support amtrak as it finishes installing positive train controls. >> congress should not put amtrak in the position of choosing between positive train control safety and fixing crumbling bridges. we have to do both and we've got to make sure they have the resources to do that. >> reporter: casey also said lawmakers should fund the rail system with a budget of $2.4 billion. amtrak is not required to finish installing the positive train controls until the end of the year. ly in the sat center, syma chowdhury, cbs3 "eyewitness news." >> syma thank you so much.

keep in mind average high should be in the mid 70's, 74. tomorrow tuesday we are going to be well above that in the low and mid 80's and then we take a dive so it's like cooler temperatures, less humidity. wait until wednesday and thursday, temperatures actually get below average but then by the end of the week, memorial day weekend we start to increase our numbers right back up to where they should be for this time of year. here we are right now we're in the lower 80's in philadelphia trenton, 80 in allentown, 78 degrees still in mount pocono this hour and it's warm and humid throughout the entire northeast, ohio valley and midatlantic. so with all that humidity around we're still dealing with a few isolated showers and even some thunderstorms that are trying to pop up, one coming up across central pennsylvania right now. the delaware valley again there may be a stray shower oar two especially during the evening hours. this air mass sits over us once again tomorrow and tuesday. still we'll be under the gun for the shower or thunderstorm threat. how is it going the feel? still very humid both on monday and tuesday and then it's going to be very pleasant wednesday and thursday. so, if you have outdoor plans

wednesday, thursday, those are the days. i'm telling you it's going to be great to be outside. tomorrow slightly cooler, upper 70's and near 80 degrees. isolated shower possible. better chance for a scattered shower coming in again tuesday afternoon as this next cold front approaches. it will surge some warmer air in here so tuesday is going to be the warmest day of the week and then the front swings through for wednesday. that changes everything up. we get a nice refreshing breeze out of the northwest pushes out all the humidity,ack full sunshine, temperatures in the mid 70's. all right, let's time things out for if you. here's 11 o'clock tonight. still clouds around, maybe a stray shower or two in some spots. tomorrow morning looks pretty dry, just some clouds in the morning hours. should break out to a little bit of sunshine and again it would be some isolated showers maybe a thunderstorm that does pop up with the daytime heating and then kind of the same deal on tuesday. you can pick out where that front is as it comes through mid to late afternoon. it could contain a shower or thunderstorm especially for the second half of tuesday. all right. notice the wind direction. right now it's out of the west so it's on the warm side. tomorrow though, we get a front that comes in from the

north and east. now we get that wind switching off the ocean so cooler air will move into new jersey tomorrow. so, it will be noticeably cooler and then the wind switches right back to the south and we have the on tuesday bringing back that warmth. all right, society so let's talk about those temperatures. tomorrow morning mid and upper 60's so again another warm start for your monday morning. there's that push of cooler air coming in by midday tomorrow into the afternoon. look at that temperatures may drop into the upper 60's right along the coastline but still inland away from the water you're going to be in the 80's especially out in berks county and chester county. tuesday warming up again low and mid 80's for afternoon highs. so here we go tonight partly cloudy skies, 67 for the low t warm and humid day for monday, partly sunny. could be an afternoon shower or storm. all right. here we go the extended forecast still feeling like summer on tuesday low 80's for the afternoon high with that afternoon shower or thunderstorm. we'll bring back full sun drop the humidity for wednesday, very pleasant, 74. low 70's for the high and thursday. you see the beach ball? that

means orr at the shore begins. here we go bringing on the unofficial start to the summer season, memorial day weekend. actually looks very nice, pleasant, some sunshine, little bit cooler, mid 70's but overall we'll take it. at least no rain dampening the plans outside. >> thank you so much justin. appreciate that. you know from baseball to bikes these days more than 800 phils fans started pedaling outside the ballpark today for the inaugural phillies charities bike ride. 25-mile trek benefits phillies clarities and of course the phanatic kicked things off. is the bike big enough for him. >> how can he ride that thing. >> i think he needs a bigger bike. >> he can do anything. >> ride any size bike. >> let's talk about the phillies. they're looking to extend their winning streak to five this afternoon against the diamondbacks something they haven't done since july of last year. just when it seems the team is on a roll starter chad billingsly placed on the 15 day dl with a shoulder strain. fourth inning, darin ruf
