thunderstorm. here's our system on storm sca scan3. there's that comma shape the center of circulation moving right around the chicago area at the moment. you can see it's all kind of scattered precipitation. nothing very strong with this. which of course is good news. but you can see across our area even a couple of sprinkles starting to fire up around the poconos. this is lifting to the north. we've got clear air at a a* lot of real estate between us and the actual showers which come through later in the day tomorrow in the meantime i think we start off our friday on actually a quiet and mild note. temperatures right now are warm. it's 64 in philadelphia. 64 in reading. 61 in allentown. that's due to the cloud cover and also a southwest wind moving through the region. >> it is a full moon tonight. maybe early tomorrow morning when the clouds clear a bit we do need some rain it has been very dry our last measurable rainfall was april 12th. almost 3-inches below average out of the season so far but we

will get at least a little bit of rain tomorrow notice tomorrow morning here's 4am you may see the moon there. sunshine around 10am the more sun we get the warmer it will be. a chance some spots make a run for 80 tomorrow but notice showers start to pop up a few around 2:00 o'clock. stray shower around five, 6:00 o'clock as well and even into overnight tomorrow night scattered showers. notice it's not a wash out. don't expect it to be. but you will have to dodge a shower or two here and there and possibly even a lingering shower saturday morning before we get gradual clearing. showers isolated thunderstorm mainly in the afternoon. looking at a quarter of an inch of rain saturday it's going to be gradual color out. clouds maybe a shower in the morning. south and east of the city down the shore the clouds and showers may hang on much of the day sunday looks like a sunnier day across the bore. overnight 60 with stray shower. tomorrow scattered showers possibly a thunderstorm. warm and breezy. we'll see some sunshine here and there especially in the morning. saturday gradual clearing, sunday looks good. monday looks great. and then we have our next system

why should we trust a like steve santarsiero who will say anything to win an election? after claiming credit for passing universal background checks for all gun purchases, "santarsiero admitted in an interview that he didn't write pennsylvania's gun safety law." his campaign brags about his accomplishments, but "in fact, he has failed in 54 attempts to get any legislation on the books." we just cant trust steve santarsiero. i'm shaughnessy naughton, and i approve this message because we deserve better. >> from businessman to family, from players to coaches, from fans to the ushers in the stands thousands celebrated ed snider today at the wells fargo accept. at least a dozen speakers share the memories and stories the former flyers owner who brought hockey to philly. last week snider lost his fight
