now up to 82. and it's even 80 at beach haven, the wind is offshore right now. middletown, delaware, at 82 degrees. just high thin clouds moving offshore. otherwise there's not any kind of cloud cover around. there was a lot of moisture off the southeast coast and the florida coast. so we don't to worry about that over -- through the weekend but next week that moisture could sneak up the coast. here is the area affecting us and that would be later on sunday. in the meantime, had been is on top of it so it will stay this way. a cold front approaches as we go into late sunday, that's going to knock the temperature down a little bit so it will be more reasonable for football by sunday afternoon, 77 degrees at kickoff with a mix of clouds and sun and then next week cooler

than that. today, sunny and warm, still not all that humid, highs in the mid to upper 80s. about 10 degrees average for this time of the year: and the seven day forecast pretty close to that on friday and saturday and pretty pleasant weather for most of us and then a mix of sun and clouds on sunday as that cold front comes through. it may knock temperatures down a little bit more on monday if the wind starts coming in off the ocean and the chances of rain go up especially that system in the south peeks up. all right, glenn, thank you. eagles head coach chip kelly is at the podium. kpou boys are coming up this week. take a listen. >> i think we have five guys -- potentially five guys out and depends on how the defense expresses itself. >> what about the running back? >> if you have talented enough guys you like to get to that
