although in central delaware your intensity is going to pick up as we head into the next hour with stronger storms off to your west and we do have strong storm activity up towards berks county lehigh valley. and we've already picked up close to an inch of rainfall in allentown. the rain continues to fall so we do have a flood advisory that has been issued by the national weather service for berks county until 3:00 in the morning and it is going to be a stormy start to the weekend for our saturday. storms scattered in nature especially during the afternoon and evening hours, otherwise cloudy and humid with a high temperature of 83. future weather as we head into the overnight period, we will see storms crossing the i-95 corridor impacting parts of south jersey more activity will start to flare up as we head into the afternoon and evening hours and the approaching of a cold front as we head into late

day tomorrow. that will set us up for a beautiful sunday. sunshine returns, a nice end to the weekend. but we'll have to keep an eye to the sky as we head into the day tomorrow. we are at a marginal risk of severe weather all across the delaware valley with storms. all is quiet as we check in on this friday evening on rehoboth beach. overnight tonight people might be chased away. we do have showers and storms in the forecast down the shore. a high temperature 80 degrees and a nice beach day as we head into sunday. 83 with lower humidity and a mix of sun and clouds. we do have this area of disturbed weather in the area of miss pan yoel la. hispaniola. it could become a tropical depression potentially over the weekend. the focus is storms tomorrow, that's going to be your indoor day for the movies, the books,

and your outdoor day is going to be on sunday with sunshine returning and high temperatures in the middle 80s. but it's been a great team here in new hope, beautiful conditions, lots of scenery, lots of shopping. i came, i forecasted, i ate, i shopped and now i'm tired and it's time for me to go to bed. >> very full day. >> thank you appreciate it. lesley has sports highlights for us. >> the mets continue to wreak havoc against the phils.

>> lesley is keeping track of the eagles. >> some big news today. the eagles came into the off season needing help in the secondary. they used two of three picks on

corner backs that was not enough. traiting jordan matthews to buffalo for corner darby. the second round pick had 225 catches, 19 touchdowns in his three seasons with the birds but with the eagles signing others, jordan was the odd man out. >> you look around the league and it is a corner-deficient league. it's hard to find those guys. it's hard to find guys who have been solid starters and can play at a high level when you get them and you need a bunch of them, it's something we felt like as well as the quarterback position will often find defensive line, you can never have enough of those guys. >> last night was debut for this year's top pick derrick barnett and showed why he broke reggie white's sack record. >> i thought he really stepped up and once he got his legs

under him, he played well. played hard and it was exciting to see him around the quarterback. >> a competent player. >> now to the phils, game 2 against the mets. the new yorkers love playing at the bank. they've hit 51 homers in the last the phillies drop another one-run game. 7-6 the final. upper providence facing maryland in the elimination game of the mid atlantic regionals.

they beat upper providence 14-4 but it was definitely a great season for upper providence so congratulations to them. second round of the pga championship, kevin kisner on 15. his approach shot is a thing of beauty. he would make the birdie. play was suspended due to darkness.

the number one anti-aging body treatment system for crepey skin! (male announcer) that can deliver stunning results on your arms, your legs, your hands, your chest, and even your neck! (female announcer) featuring legendary actress and crepe erase success story, jane seymour! (soft music) crepey skin makes me feel...old. (cindy) i am really sick of looking down and wondering what happened to me. (belinda) i feel like i'm missing out on life because of my skin. i want a change. hi, i'm jane seymour. have you ever had a moment in your life when you find something that changes everything? well, my epiphany was an anti-aging body treatment system that actually made my skin look years younger! it's called crepe erase, and it's the easiest two step system that can transform the old looking, crepe-papery skin we begin to see at a certain age,

into visibly smoother, firmer, more beautiful skin, that looks as young as you feel! so if you're embarrassed by crepey looking knees, arms, or hands that make you want to hide, this is your chance to feel confident and beautiful in your own skin again. from the first time i used crepe erase, i could actually see a difference with one application. i feel more confident about the way i look. my husband loves to hug me! he's feeling my skin, and he's, "oh my god, babe! you have really, really soft skin!" (female announcer) but what exactly is crepey skin? crepey skin basically comes down to two things: one is losing that elastin and collagen. they're complex proteins that make up the backbone, the matrix of your skin in the dermis. number two is we lose the ability to retain moisture in our skin. it's dry. it's loose.
