this batch of rain and showers that's moving its way through the midwest. notice what happened though. this is a nice long six hour loop. this was way more impressive when it was over illinois and wisconsin than it currently is. you see how it's fizzling. even though this is going to roll through our area it comes through with clouds. it doesn't come through with wet weather. high pressure is generally on our side and it continues to be so right through tomorrow for that matter. will will eventually be a storm system that develops across the center of the united states moves our way and that's what we look ahead to for the upcoming holiday weekend. so as high pressure leaves we'll see this next storm move in and the actual core of circulation with the storm is going to remain well off to our north but we're going to see the warm front move through first from south to north. that's going to help really warm things up into sunday and then the cold front crosses through later on that night. so o-typically with frontal passages up tend to think okay there might be somebody wet weather around and i think we'll see some wet weather mainly saturday night and again late on sunday generally

into the overnight so that's good news. if you've got egg hunt plans brunch plans sunday service plans i think up get them in. the daylight hours should be okay and future weather shows this very well. you've got a couple clouds from that first disturbance, no harm no foul. come friday also featuring clouds but some sun as well and temperatures that remain where they should into the mid 60's. then comes that frontal boundary. the beginnings of it already over the great lakes at high noon on saturday but our wet weather out of it, a, looks scattered and b, wouldn't get here until later that night after the sun has set so good timing, mother nature. then we start to warm up between those fronts so that's why we're calling for about 80 degrees and possibly higher than that for some of you as we move into sunday. look, outside the beach patrol headquarters, a live view for you definitely more clouds than what you'll find back in kutztown but it's still a pleasant start to the afternoon and we'll have a chance to moderate up a few

more degrees before you before it's all said and done. you have to deal with the gun the bad on days like this. the pollen levels are still quite high. u.v. index we'll call it moderate. don't underestimate that april sun angle. that could still get you. for the rest of the day the high should hit about 66 degrees t ever so slightly above average, very comfortable outside too and then the warmest day comes on easter. despite that system moving through i think we'll have a really nice weekend. >> we need a little rain for the flowers. >> sure we do. >> absolutely. >> you need a jolt today. >> wawa is offering you all the coffee you need and you won't have to pay a dime. >> that's because it's wawa day. the company is celebrating the anniversary of the opening of their very first convenience store in 1964 by giving away free coffee. by the end of today wawa will have given away 2 million cups of coffee. the company announced today that more wawas are coming to center city. >> two knew what whats, 22nd and south street 13th and chestnut street.
