that we will start off to get you out the door, quiet weather. weekend all anomies looking very, very nice. we have got high pressure on our side and to thank for this beautiful weather. we have had a veil of cloud cover still kind of out there on the satellite but it is not , you know, more than anything it will just pass on through. we will see more sun then anything for the rest of the this iewnoon. lets see why this will all warm up here. we've got high pressure on our side to bring about the fair weather and sunshine. talebearer use of high pressure rotate nothing the clock wise fashion and hemisphere and that high pressure and core of it, moves east, we will end up on the west side of that and warmth comes in, with that clockwise motion. so we will continue the warming trend in the next few days, and even despite that, i think that the slopes will get way more packed then they currently are. this is blue mountain. i love this shot, just to show the activity, gorgeous view in the distance and yeah, it is going to be a lot of folks on the slopes this weekend from all of the snow, that you just had, in the last few days, and it is still cold enough that a lot of the resorts are still

making their own fresh powder as well, and i mean we've got feet worth of a base up there as well, too. so for almost all of the slopes, are opened at these resorts. so, look at this it is awesome with sunshine all weekend long we will hit low to mid 40's through the week went sun, no less, it is really nice. here's a what we're going for for that game day forecast, just a handful of cloud overhead, and not only for the tailgate but for kick off as well. forty-nine is our expected high, right now, and, that will obviously take place during the tailgate but at kick i have as sunnies beginning to set. it is cooler, but still mid 40 's, which is still above average. and so let's talk about the stats, and, fit is warmer, do that usually m win? well, traditionally, historicalt does. because with the game time temperatures that we are's forecasting at 44 degree that bode well. the birthed have been three and zero when they have been in the playoffs. when they went to the super bowl in zero five, interestingly enough it was 17 f

snow on the ground. we will not discount. that we will discount that, let's just go by these statistics, the eagles score typically 27-points per game with the opponent scoring 15. so, fingers are crossed, at lee history is on our side when it comes to this lets look the at live neighborhood network which is totally clear out at the beaches, in rehoboth, up to a handful of folks walking up and down the shore and board. it is cold, obviously at 32 degrees. but as we have been mentioning , it is going to continue to warm up, with every passing day. and so, go bird, it looks good for the weekend, 44 for the rest of this afternoon. really nice the bulk of the seven day is well above average, with highs , at least, around or above 50 degrees but there is a new storm system that will entually w i and all good things do have to come to an end and specifically tuesday, times out for the umbrella, looks like decent rain is moving on through and that should knock temperatures back by mid week. >> we're feeling it for sunday y can totally get behindthe latn
