chocolate eggs out too long because they'll be melting. 66 degrees as we get a live look at center city philadelphia. not the prettiest day definitely have the clouds in place, winds out of the south right now and that southerly component to our wind flow is going to usher in that warmer air. dewpoints up into the middle 50's so you might notice little bit of a muggy factor when you step outside is that storm scan3 showing us clouds in place. some spotty showers up wind across portions of pennsylvania. most of the main energy off to our north. we could see a couple of showers working through and we do have this kind of isolated shower working through parts of carbon and monroe county trying to push itself off into portions of lehigh county so maybe a drip drop up into lehighton and hail son as -- hazelton. mostly cloudy and mild. 64 degrees. overnight we'll keep around that chance of a very passing shore. most of us will be staying dry. areas of fog develop late so keep in mind if you have to head out and about early tomorrow morning.

could be dealing with reduced visibilities. temperatures not too chilly, only falling back to near 60 degrees. today we did top off at 66 degrees. right around our normal high temperature of 64. started off the day though a bit chilly at 46 degrees and the temperatures right now holding pretty stable, not cooling off too much 'cause we have this warmer air mass building in. also have that cloud deck in place. temperatures right now in dover up into the low 70's and this warmer air mass is knocking on our door, temperatures widespread in the 70's and 80's to our south on west and this big ridging in the jet stream is going to kind of lift its way up over the northeast so tomorrow temperatures will be running about that 20 degrees above average and we actually won't be too off, far off from our record high temperature in philadelphia. the record for tomorrow's date 90 degrees set back in 2002. we're forecasting a high of 85 for all the little bunnies and chicks out there. so o-it is going to be a warm easter, sunny and mild, 7 o'clock hour 62 degrees, a beautiful morning as we head into the second half of the

day, a few more clouds developing, windy conditions very warm with those temperatures climbing up into the middle 80's. we have a chance at seeing a late day shower or a thunderstorm developing but future weather showing us as we head throughout the overnight period maybe a very stray shower waking up to sunshine for tomorrow morning, great brunch conditions but then as we head into the second half of the day, do see this broken line of showers and few embed thunderstorms starting to work into our western counties pushing eastbound. this model predicting around 6 o'clock i-95 core do. we could see another second round as we head into the late evening and into the overnight period as well. again, these are going tock pretty spotty in nature but keep an eye to the sky just in case. a late day thunderstorm possible in the poconos. for easter windy and warm 75 degrees. very similar conditions down the shore with sunshine. we wait for the evening to see the best storm chance. 74 degrees and breezy on monday with sunshine. cooler and pleasant by tuesday, 65 degrees but that's right around average for us and then looks like we do have

kind of a more unsettled weather pattern as we head into the late end of the seven day for next friday and saturday. >> tomorrow's going to be beautiful. >> yes. >> looking forward to that. thank you so much. lauren making a special appearance a man of many talents. >> great to be here tonight ladies. going right from april to august tomorrow. >> yes, just going to dive right in. >> that's what we do. skip a couple months. >> have a little baseball for that you tonight. >> all right. >> phillies battling the nationals today down in d.c. t fightans looking to end a four game losing streak and needed jeremy hellickson to pitch deep into the game to give the bullpen a break. everybody wearing number 42 today to celebrate the 70th anniversary of jackie robinson breaking the color barrier. phils trailed one-nothing in the fourth. odubel herrera with the line drive just inside the third baseline. there's cesar hernandez scoring to tie the game. jeremy hellickson went seven innings giving up two runs and four hits and struck out two. now to the eighth, game tied.

one on for that cesar hernandez and he took former phils joe blanton deep over the right field wall for a two run homer. fightans back in the lead. the new closer joaquin benoit got ryan zimmerman to pop out o phillies win four-two and here's joaquin on how to deal with being the closer. >> well, i believe it's a little bit more tension but for me i treat it the same way as the eighth inning. not trying to do too much t-you know, try to minimize the damage. >> calm under pressure. well, for the second time in the last four years the sixers could have the nba rookie of the year. joel embiid and dario saric are the favorites to take home the award. the sixers waited two years for dario to come over from turkey and he was worth the wait. after sixers tradedders sign ilyasova to the hawks dario averaging 17 points and seven boards in the final 25 games

of the sixers season. but gm brian colangelo says they want another power forward who can shoot the three. >> but we're going to keep looking for shooters and guys that hopefully can dollar other things, defend, run, you know, stretch the floor, open things up. i think the stretch four position is something, you know, backing up dario or starting in front of dario, whichever it is, if we can find someone that's better, we've got to, you know, probably address that four position. >> and maybe some playoffs in the future. in the meantime, the nba playoffs game one between the defending champions cavaliers and the pacers under 10 seconds left, cavaliers holding on to a one point lead, pacers with the ball, cj miles gets the pass and it is a no-go. his jumper no good. the buzzer sounding cleveland holding on for the victory 109-108. so who will be the starting goalie next season for the flyers? michal neuvirth steve mason or

anthony stolarz? neuvirth was signed a two year extension earlier this year but could be exposed in the expansion draft. steve mason could become a free agent in july. earlier this week he complained that the team didn't declare a true number one goalie. and having a platoon system doesn't work. gm ron hextall who knows something about the position disagrees. >> you have to have two goalies. i mean, look what happened to that montreal last year. it's -- the games are too many competitive. you don't win games without really good goaltending and if you have one guy and he plays 70 games, there's going to be a few games there where he doesn't perform up to his best and you can't afford that anymore. >> ron hextall speaking from experience. >> yes, thank you so much joe. very good to have you here on sports. >> indeed. >> still to come a mom is taking her walk to school very, very seriously and her sons wouldn't have it any other way. >> i try to do things like that with them all the time.

this one was i guess a little bit more extreme and it got a lot of attention. >> why this mom says she always wears her t rex costume and we're going to show you how so many people found out about her morning tradition
