nice in the poconos, one of the great days on the slopes where there is plenty of snow to ski on but don't need to bundle up or completely cover your face in the scarves and maybe just wear a light jacket or sweat shirt on the slopes this weekend. it will be very nice. jack frost big boulder, busy night, a few people coming down at the mountain. here's how the day turns out this is time lapse from palmyra cove nature park after a few clouds, it was brilliant blue skies, all day long and then a really nice looking sunset, pastel colors in the sky as the sun went down. a beautiful day to look at, not the best day to be out in, definitely felt on the chilly side today. we are climbing as we head toward weekend. it is all thanks to the system off to the west. warm front pushing towards the area rain and snow showers across the upper peninsula of michigan. probably not an issue for us but as this storm lifts through tomorrow, can't rule out a stray rain or snow shower mainly from the lehigh valley in the poconos, mainly after four or 5:00 o'clock tomorrow evening. in the meantime temperature wise, again, these are our highs today, so notice our

normal high in the mid 40's. up to 37 in philadelphia 34 was the high in allentown and 35 degrees, that is as far as we climbed, as we move into trenton. but take a look at highs off to the south and west and we can see how warm it is. 60 degrees in st. louis. seventy-four in little rock. seventy in new orleans and this warmth is starting to move north and east as we go through next few days. the wind still strong, and here's what it feels like outside right now. it feels like 24 in philadelphia, even though temperature is 35, 36. feels like 22 in wilmington. it feels like a very cold ten in mount pocono, for skiers we just saw on the slopes. today's high only 37, by saturday, high, 20 degrees warmer then that. we may make a run for 60. high pressure starts to move east we will start to get southeasterly flow. more clouds tomorrow thanks to the warm front and then a breezy warm day on saturday, well above average with highs in the mid to upper 50's to near 6o then we will turn our eye to the coast. timing of the system is late

tuesday into wednesday, that much we know, it does look like more of a wednesday storm then a tuesday storm at this point. the as of the information we have right now it appears it could start out as rain and then end up as snow with colder air on the back edge but that forecast will evolve as the event nears. i don't think we will have a good handle on what to expect until at least the weekend, so make sure you you stay tuned a lot will evolve with this system because we don't have a lot of cold air to talk about and when you get that kind of a set up you don't have the ideal situation for a snowstorm but you have the possibility and we just to have wait until stormy involves on get a good handle on it. quiet weekend, beautiful weekend and then next week winter could return. whatever that storm does after it moves out it looks like it will get colder again. >> okay, here it comes. >> thanks, kate good "cbs evening news" is just a few minutes away. >> tonight scott pelley is in vegas ahead of the nevada democratic primary and goes one on one with hillary clinton. >> what do you think donald
