6:15 am
further north yesterday, but it was a warm day for us, across the delaware valley, really, pretty much throughout our saturday afternoon. we got all the way to 93 degrees, once again, so by hitting 93 yesterday, that's five days in a row where we've seen 90 degrees or more. so again, we are definitely in the throws after heatwave for sure here in philly. our average high for this time of year, 87. so definitely above that. now, the good news for us, as i just said, temperatures today will be a little bit cooler than what we've h so might actually miss out on the 90's across philly, as we go through the afternoon hours today. unfortunately the humidity is back. so it is kind of, you know, not completely clearing things out. that will will be coming in the next couple of afternoon noons, temperatures, as we wake up, in the 70s across the area, pretty much just like we woke up yesterday morning, 74 millville, 77 atlantic city, at the airport, 72 in trenton, six an up in mount pocono this

6:17 am
lightning always a factor, hail, we put it into the moderate range, i think that's on the lower ends, really what we are being looking for, and tornado risk very, very low if any at all. so see for the afternoon pretty much quiet. go with mostly cloudy conditions. then we start to see showers, thunderstorms, 10:00 northwest of the city, by midnight or so they get little closer, push through the metro here, by about 5:00 tomorrow morning. so just in time for many of us getting up. looks like maybe they do last through about the mid-morning hours, then by the time we get to late morning monday they start to clear out, few spotty showers and thunderstorms, not completely ruled out as we get into tomorrow afternoon. 86 degrees for our high temperature today. again, staying stick at this, mostly cloudy skies, back to the 90s on monday, but all look being forward to tuesday and wednesday, 85, and 83 degrees, jan, lower humidity, not much happening, and then we start to warm things back up, though, as again, the second half of the week. >> couple of days for a break,
