being so nice you are getting, people are getting out here at 7:30 in the morning not normal >> this time of the year there is frost, toes burns off and get out, golfers don't like that but there is a huge benefit for us with no toes being provided. >> good luck with that, jeff. >> i will give it a shot here, caddy shack all you have to do is go, like this. and the ball will go in the hole. >> how does it look. is it going in? is it going in? are they going in? >> light this one side. >> okay, yeah, um-hmm. >> i'm one of those people that figured out things. >> they went in, right. >> yeah, um-hmm. >> suspicious of everything. >> yes. >> we don't trust you. >> well, what was wrong with that. >> i'm a good putter.

>> the background was different you should have shot it the closer because we could see it was dark in the other shot. >> i cannot hear you, they went in, i don't know what you are talking about. >> transmission problem. >> very convenient. >> katie. >> but none of that funny business like pat. >> yes. >> definitely. >> i will give pat the credit his outfit was exactly what it should be to be outside on the course but i am in the quite sure what that hat was but he pulled it off. lets look at the eyewitness weather watchers, getting out to very mild weather to begin the day, very foggy which we will get to but we have got folks reporting 50 degrees here and there. let me go down into delaware first, we are at 50, from andy sea gull who has more cloud then anything. down in dover he has patchy fog, a lot more dense and widespread, as you go further north and for that example we will take new to williamstown where i'm sure pat's reporting

but he has fog, this is peter 's report 11 minutes ago he sent this in and did promise on twitter a fog shot. i went looking for it. split is. in williamstown you can this is make anything off in the distance here, at fairly most you can make out the trees and then the house just there in the advertise tans. lets go to this one shore, zero this and take you out to blue bell, 44 from jerry. he too finding fog, no wind and how he coined this february florida weather, this is very, very mild out there. would i suggest an extra layer going out we expect to warm up in the 60's and handful of 70 's. there is a new storm on the horizon, still a couple days away but snow is falling through central rockies. we are not seeking snow but when this gets here we do expect to see some rain. walking you forward here a few showers across southern pennsylvania tonight, tomorrow maybe a spotty shower and then saturday, cold trent starts to get its act together in time for late afternoon early

evening, there will be a line of gusty thunderstorms and soaking rain that roles through. that is saturday. that cold trent noxious back see difference 20 lust degrees difference, much cooler but by sunday, meisha closer to where we should be. >> thank you, live look outside right thousand, schuylkill taillights moving in the eastbound direction from belmont you can see all that fog that is still out there and it is starting to cause problems for us. but we have an overturn tractor trailer in cinnaminson , new jersey, route 33 southbound near route nine on two right lanes blocked there and avoid this, and betsy ross and that is no longer an option. and, anywhere you go, around us we are getting very slow. heads up, overturn tractor trailer is going to slow you down. because of the fog, the airport is reporting, 48 behind delays, on arriving flights, so just make sure to check those schedules on line if you testify a flight schedule for to take.

we have an accident here 95 northbound near christiana. we have debris in the roadway. this will slow you down a little bit as well. overturn tractor trailer with this accident on i-95. we have another accident here, this is route 202 southbound at 95. i can tell you several vehicles are reported around this area that are either involved or around this area. this will be another place that starts to slow down, jim, back over to you. >> thanks, meisha. in healthwatch sleep hey be just what the doctor ordered with teens with behavioral problems according to researchers at the university of pennsylvania who found that sleepy teens may be more likely to get in trouble. study found teens who say they are tired in the mid afternoon are not only shore roane to lying, cheating, stealing, fighting they are more likely to commit crimes as adults. many of us will be lacing up our sneakers and taking that run outside today but whether you are training for a mar then like rahel or a beginner looking to go for a

leisurery jog. rahel is here with doctor jen in this morning's what's up dock, segment. >> doctor jennifer is here this morning with some advice. good to see you as always. >> good to see you too. >> good to be here with us. >> got sneakers on today. >> yes. where do you start? how do you know where to start >> i always say you want to start slowly. that is one of the most important things. i like to give people encouragement. i 10 to be a walker. there have been times i have run. people get intimidated by running. if you have they ever done it the before it doesn't mean you can't start. just start slowly. that may be walking and adding a couple jog steps, brisk walking but gradual is key here. >> if you do for some reason, want to run a race, want to run a marathon how do you know how much time to give yourself for example myself i had run a couple times a week but 26.2 is a whole other an hall. >> which by the way i give you all of the robs in the world

to running a marathon. >> it is amazing. >> thank you. it is a fantastic goal. once again slowness and gradually increasing slowly does matter here too. it the depend on the person's level of conditions and their experience. that is what it is all about. there is 10 percent rule. i don't know if you have heard about that. idea not increasing your mileage over 10 percent from week to week. that just helps you pace your distance and stuff thaw are increasing things. once again gradual is way to go, 10 percent rule but it does depend on your level of experience and conditioning of such. >> i have heard about different between stretches and dynamic warm ups. what do you think from a medical standpoint for better to making sure you prevent injuries. >> stretching really is what we want to be doing when it comes to preventing injuries. there are a couple different stretches. there is dynamic stretching which means you are using movement to stretch out your muscles. there is static stretches. >> heel touches that sort of touch.

>> you are moving through and static ones where i strike a pose and hold it. so i talked to sports medicine doctor yesterday about this. he said, the evidence is really milk about which one is best. most important thing is just to make sure you are stretching, period. find ones you like thaw are comfortable with. >> now obviously for some of us running not necessarily the most pleasant experience but when do you know you may have push yourself past your limit. >> i always say pain, they say no pain in, gain. but no, no, no, we don't like that phrase. because pain indicates that something is not going right with your body. you shouldn't be in pain. if you are feeling like you have got pain that is something that should clue you into seeing your doctor. other ways we can prevent injuries. we talk about warming up, stretches. rest in between work outs. the don't go hard every single day. that may cause some problems. wear right footwear, make sure you get right shoes.

don't over do it. work to your level of fitness. if you have never work out don't go run 26 miles in one day. and of course don't forget the cool down following your race or your running. is there any foods better prepare you to run. i have a friend that swears by peanut butter toast every morning. the and then something with more carbs afterward. do you have any opinion on that. >> yes and no. i personally from a medical standpoint think some carbs and protein are a way to go but once again i think everybody is different. it depend how you feel. you want to make sure you have proper nutrition that is definitely key. >> orders from doctor jen. good to see you. >> we will be right back with three to go.
