filtering in, start the week next week little mild. neighborhood network, 69 degrees in kutztown, where it is gorgeous, i see some birds out there, i see lot of blue skies, and soccer field that seems to be inviting people to come play, right? beautiful out there. right now storm scan3 confirms we are just got very few clouds in the sky, nice and clear, it is gorgeous. however, we have a little bit of business lurking off to the north and our west. that is some stormy weather, ahead of cold front. that will catch up with us eventually. but will not be until friday, later in the afternoon, so today gorgeous, but friday about 80% chance of showers, could you see it lingers little into saturday, by sunday we are looking good. so sets us up for pretty good looking weekend. future weather, getting into friday morning, 9:00 a.m., start to see few blips on the radar mount pocono, this is what really concerns me though, but at 5:00 o'clock, 6:00 time frame in time for rush hour on a friday, here comes some stormy weather ahead of the cold front. you can see some of this looks like it could be pretty nasty thunderstorms, so just a heads up friday afternoon, not looking great. but then we start to clear out

and we will be looking just fine. so today, warm, pleasant, beautiful friday, afternoon showers, but high of 78 degrees. so warm out there. so that leaves us for the weekends cooler, but nice. so your weekend weather very fall like. should be lovely. have few clouds to start off our saturday. work our way to up 64 degrees, get the sunshine back in there in the afternoon, by sunday, 68, and sunny, and i think that's a perfect fall weekends of after last weekends a lot of people are happy to see we will have some dry skies this weekend, it also means if you're headed out for the football game this sunday as the eagles take on the saint, perfect, 66 degrees and sunshine for our 1:00 o'clock kick off. enjoy it everybody. nice weekends on tap. today looking out for high of about 74 degrees, nice and sunny out there, winds nice and light. tonight we cool down to low of 58. should be pretty comfortable. start to see the clouds increase as we get into the day tomorrow, again, looking out for the stormy weather, a we get into friday afternoon, and you notice, once the cold front passes us by, part of what happens is that it definitely lowers the

temperatures. so you start to see the 60s for the weekends, warming up again as we head into monday. not bad at all. >> can't beat today, though. lovely out. >> thank you. we'll be back with more after this.
