tomorrow around this time you will want to take a look at the skies so that you can see a require blue moon. has nothing to do with the color. but during most years the earth experiences 12 full moons one in each month. but then there are some years like this one where we have 13 full moons. and that extra lunar display is labeled blue moon. back in the day they even had a name -- name of a song. blue moon. >> we were singing it during the commercial break. >> were you. >> we both were. >> i heard you. actually yeah that sun -- that moon sets tomorrow about 6:11 in the morning we shall have nice clear sky for it. the heat still here. it really intense. i was really surprised when i got out of my car. no kidding really does. it will bake this car too. remember that. the cars can turn into ovens in a matter of minutes. be really really careful with that going to the grocery store taking the kids along or pet to

the park whatever you've got going on never ever ever leave them inside a car even if the windows are cracked open just be really smart and careful about that. in the meantime, we're also track something stormy weather. so i want to start thing off by taking out to little bit of a baby tour here of our life neighborhood network. we'll actually start things off outside in berneville where we have yet to see anybody walking around on the fields it's probably just as well because the skies have definitely turned very gray here. in anticipation and preparation for the storms that the on the way. berneville out in berks county. meanwhile wee take you all the way east here to cape may county where cape may courthouse maybe a little tough to tell but definitely a bluer sky a lot brighter out here turning breezy with winds out of the south southwest in advance of this. so here's that line that we had showed you earlier in the show. at the moment we've got heavier thunderstorm not basically crossing right over i70 noon i i81. so you're going to be finding with that definitely heavy downpours which we'll discuss as well as frequent lightning and

gusty winds, too. all part of a much larger system which much wider zoom is very well defined. up over the hudson bay. we're dealing with trailing front from this. yes, we've got very steamy air our current feels like values in philadelphia. 97 is how it feels right now. but behind the frontal boundary it feels more like much cooler by comparison. low and mid 80s into minneapolis, st. louis chicago all of these cities where the front has cleared out. so that's something that we've got to look ahead to. let's go ahead and look ahead here for the storminess for the rest of the afternoon. even really i would say the next few hours it look like the western suburbs had get in on this. notice heavier pockets of rain, localized downpours and again these storms shouldn't turn really strong or severe but some of them could definitely provide some gustier winds with them keep an eye on that. maybe secure your patio cushions that kind of a thing. and as we head in towards six 7:00 o'clock toward dinnertime basically that's about the point we start to see the wet weather arriving at the shore points. and then it's all out of here as

we look forward into the overnight hours. so that's what we're talking about with the moon. you'll have no problem seeing it early in the morning tomorrow. meanwhile, as we look ahead again, we're still sitting in marginal risk for severe weather i really think that we don't have to worry about tornadoes or worry about any kind of hail issues necessarily. it's downpours some gusty wind, some lightning certainly imbed imbedded within those pockets and that's really worse of it. maybe be a shower or storm around for the first pitch for the phils this evening. keep an eye on it. all about timing i'm sure they'll get the game in. they might have to wait it out a little bit. in the seven day, we lose the humidity at least but we certainly don't lose the heat. low 90s continue in to next week. with a generally pretty tranquil pattern. stay there. we're coming right back.
