go, bottom line here, stay hydrated. in the city we mentioned this earlier in the show, i think you'll easily hit the 90s here today. not too humid everywhere, anyway, so that's at least, exactly, makes it feel a heck of a lot more comfortable. regardless still find the potential for wet weather. talk about that earlier in the show, as well as into the fourth of july itself. that will will come in the form of very scattered showers, storms, from that frontal boundery we mentioned. tough to pick it out on the radar right now let alone the satelite. but notice, if you look closely, north central pa, that little pocket of clouds, just part of the front we're talking b that's drops in from the north. it will drop to our south later tonight. but then get kind of hung up, across mid-atlantic. that's why we still have potential for shower or thunderstorm in our forecast tomorrow. i don't think you're talking about widespread anything out of. >> this let's look at future weather. i always like to use this as a guide specially when this close to the event. it tends to be a really good guide, as the timing, not necessarily for everyone, but

give you idea, okay, even just in the next two hours, things may ignite across the poconos, catching up for the early afternoon, watch for shower or thunderstorm there. there could be locally heavy thunderstorm that ignite specially north of the city, but notice, even still get in on quick shower at some 5:00, 6:00 this evening. it should bypass the southern jersey coastline, so i think you will be okay at the actual shore line. but that said, again, you'll want to keep your ears perk for thunder with this fires up. then, into tomorrow, we should be pretty quiet for the first part of the day. toward the afternoon, in the, again, all super scattered, but something may begin to pop on the radar into the afternoon or toward evening. now, by the time the fireworks are going off across much of the region, we should really just see some lingering clouds out there. shouldn't affect all that much, but with the frontal boundery, so close by, we've got to allow for shower or storm. not enough that you would have to worry about cancelling plans, though. let's look at the dew points, talk about them, remember, 56 is about the benchmark for where it starts to feel kind

of steamy. you have a little bit of a variety pack going on, actually still feels granted warm but comfortable in the city of philadelphia. certainly a lot steamier in wildwood, at 69 on the dew point temperature. again, starting to feel kind of steamy depending on location, all-in-all nice afternoon. certainly outside palmyra cove nature park this will be awesome view for us, as weather geeks watch all of the fireworks go off here over the delaware river in the next night or two. beach patrol headquarters starting to see some activity, picking you have up here at least one of the beaches still open. people certainly taking advantage of that. meanwhile take you for the rest of the afternoon here at the shore, sunny, hot, might crack 90 at the shore, and i am getting the rap. i want to jump you right ahead here to the seven day forecast, take a look, today's the hottest for sure. but by the week's ends we talk about more of unsettled pattern, bigger more potent systems comes along, bridges in more widespread showers for thursday and friday. >> katie, thank you, we'll enjoy what we've got now. well today we are above and

beyond the call of duty. meisha's here with today's love it. >> in one way or another it will hit us all watch do we do when we comes across something that needs immediate a ten. who one officers showing us how it is done going above and beyond the call every duty, empathy, love, ethics. >> two years ago a patrolman from oklahoma jody thompson called to child abuse case, one of the worse they'd seen. eight year old john was found in a barrel and starved at the hands every his biological parents. after responding to the call, thompson took the injured boy to the hospital. and waited by his side, day after day, as he recovered from his injuries, in the intensive care unit. but thompson never stopped caring for the young boy. in fact, that would become just the beginning for jody and his family, as just recently the thompson's received the ultimate gift. the gift of legal adoption. >> when i seen him in that

house, i knew. >> john now gratefully calls him dad. >> he's helpful to me, thompson's family was already growing at that time, but, as fate would have it, ben learned that john's biological mother gave birth to a baby girl, in jail, so, what did the thompson's do? well, they adopted her, as well. >> we pick her up at the hospital. she was barely 24 hours old and brought her home. >> an officer near to the thompson's says many might say they would do the very same things in that situation, but to actually go through with it, that's the true measure of character and heart. he said his son john, in fact, john is a a student. and is now in the gifted and talented program. >> wow. >> so wonderful. >> isn't that cool? i mean, you talk about going above and beyond the call of duty. >> truly. >> that takes the cake, sets the bar super hi, not only for

officers. >> brand new family. very sweet. >> and keeping the family together. >> absolutely. >> as well. officer thompson's is setting a high standard like we just said not only for others in law enforcement but for all of us when we see something, do something, anything. just do something. well, that does it for love it today of the if you have got any positive and inspirational story ideas please sends them my way at meisha at twitter at cbs-3 or on facebook. >> and still ahead, adorable new addition to dolphin park, the newest baby
