4:45 am
10 degrees onto that, especially at the height of the day, that's how it will feel. so drink water, take it easy out there, at least relief, light at the end of the proverbial tunnel here, today, tomorrow, awfully oppressive when it comes to the higher dew points, then come sunday, monday, feeling so much more pleasant as much drier air mass settles in. look ahead to the seven day forecast, two more days of this, into the 90's for two more days, again unsettled weather bringing us showers and thunderstorms, eagles tailgaters looking good here, sunday lot of sunshine, back to the mid 80s, a lot closer to where we should be this time of year. meisha? >> i'll be out there. i cannot wait. good morning, everyone, happy friday. so take a peak at what's going on behind me. all these flashing lights, not good news again this morning. what we have here, this is 959 south, before the delaware state line. accident involving a box truck and a vehicle, both of which are overturned right now. this is the southbound side, which had all lanes block for a little bit of time.
