right now according to jason. and he's got more over cast than anything. he's saying days like this make him miss the nice, crisp conditions you get in autumn. i'm with you tailgating weather is crisp and comfortable. once we hit the fall. that is not what we'll be finding here today. it's very streamy day. you see the storm system the cell pushing through all morning long. it's already making its migration near the shoreline. so with time this will be out to sea and we're less free and clear with less sunny conditions and however ponding on roads leftovers of the storm that rolled through could get you. you might have to flick windshield wipers if it's not raining. keep that in mind. later today more thunderstorms on the way by the way and strong with cold front passage. immediate concern was storms gets out of here is heat. later today excessive heat warning remaining in effect until 6 p.m. and later today those heat index values will be spiking so high.

watch dover. so this is 9 a.m. this morning. it already feels like 100 at 9:00 in the morning in dover and you're stuck in the triple dimming its through afternoon 100 at that point in philly and may feel 108 wildwood and takes until 7 to drop below central narcotic dover. you're talking multiple showers of excessive heat in that area and many others. you got it take it easy. don't go by the thermometer. add solid 10 on to it and that's how it feels. watching for strong thunderstorms later on and 90s continue to end of week. today is the worst, meisha. >> feelic like 108 outside will be very, we stre warm. i have to say pretty darn cool philly is on the national and international stage of dnc. because of that we have road closures. i'll back out of the way to look at this map. this is map closures around wells fargo center and fdr park broad street south of schuylkill closed at patterson

avenue and terminal avenue are the big ones. make note i'll tweet this as well. be aware of this i'll switch gears and bring you outside to 95 south cottman actually i'll do that in a second. first this one. schuylkill eastbound closed 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. dale lane broad between washington and packer and also several septa bus routes now detoured make sure to check schedules online. a lot going on today. want to give you a live look for your commute. 95 south cottman you see how slow it is on the s curve. ben franklin bridge looking wet heating up westbound in new jersey for 42 freeway creek road. wet out there. busy, schuylkill at boulevard take a look at this eastbound, westbound, not even moving. dnc closures 95 north platt bridge checkpoints there and more of that coming up in a little bit. >> jim over to you. >> looks like a parking lot, thanks, meisha. we've been talking about it all morning controversy and chaos

overshadowing start of dnc here in philadelphia. >> don giordano is live in the news center. dnc chair debbie wasserman-schultz is step stepping down. is this bump in road or real problem for democratic party. >> brook i would say it's a ill little early to tell. they did right thing by firing her quickly but bernie people we saw in town yesterday they don't see it the trump people will appeal to bernie people saying the whole system is rigged you can't go with hillary clinton but come with me. >> it's not best timing for this to come out. >> absolutely jim. they acted quickly. and it's not during the convention. it's on the eave of convention. the problem is there's a lot of emails and there's a lot of other stuff there. and what's shocking is debbie wasserman-schultz for democrats

would be going after a guy on his religion that's tenant. sometimes republicans swerve into that. but democrats are always doesn't matter if atheist or what religion is you don't go there. >> i know it hot topic on radio show philadelphia lease union fop speaking out on some of the guests. what is their objection. >> objection is that bill clip ton and this group of mom's that travel country whose sons were involved and sadly fatality in police shooting like michael brown's mother from furgeson will be here and they feel it's one sided. they feel black lives matter is pushing it. john mcnesby is making national news because of how outraged police will and he's bringing widows on my show and others i think to counter balance that. democrats are reluctant to put police widows out there some reason that's why police are angry and it's bubbling up

nationally. >> you were in cleveland how does security compare to here in philly. >> first of all there's a downtown casino in cleveland. that's where we got dropped off it was like a block an a half two block walk and was not a big deal at all brook here from early reports this morning and what i saw driving down yesterday there's a much bigger blockage there and much more difficult, dnc apparently is being tougher on this because of number of protesters. so i think it will be relativ relatively much more difficult to get in. what i liked in cleveland they kept protester by in large away from center and as result there was not any big confrontation. there were none. at most 250, 300 pro testers. >> don thank you for joininging thus morning. >> thanks, brook, jim, thank you. >> our pleasure stay with eyewitness news and our coverage of 2016 can kwy news
