still cold, still going to feel cold tomorrow morning, too, but as we go towards the end of the week we are watching that winter storm that we've been telling you about. so, of course, we are keeping a very close eye on that. >> sheena, on a lot of people's minds, as you said, so much talk about the threat of a winter storm, the first for our season here. >> could be big, maybe not. different si their owes. explain what's changing, sheena. >> we are still several days out, the computer models change closer to the storm, also based on other weather patterns occurring, so it is typical to see the models go back and forth as we try to get a better grasp on the storm. now we have two scenarios, very small shift in the track will mean a bigger difference for part of the area. this is the first scenario, the storm track closer to shore, so this is what that would eventually do late friday, we'd heavy snow across part of the area with the storm track closer

to shore, even as we go through saturday and moving away as we go through sunday, so what that would mean, philadelphia snow to a mix and along the shore snow to rain. then we have the second scenario, a slightly different track. we're not talking about a big difference, but that would be causing big differences across the area. that's the second scenario, storm tracks farther offshore or south. so now we go into midnight saturday, the snow still approaching the area, there you see the storm track farther south and farther offshore, we'd still be seeing snow across the area, but the placement of the snow as we go into late saturday would be a little different. north and west of philadelphia, lehigh valley, least amount of snow. philadelphia expecting snow, new jersey and delaware expecting the heavier of the snow and a majority of it being snow, not that changeover to rain like i showed you in the first scenario. yeah, we are looking at a couple different situations, either way, still tracking a winter storm and over the rest of the

week we'll have better updates tomorrow and into thursday. we'll talk more about this coming up. >> clearer the closer we get. walking a fine line with the storm. make sure you get every update. download the nbc 10 news app now for updated forecasts, live radar, blogs, and also sign up for text alerts to get critical information for your neighborhood. and this bitter cold weather has people digging out the hats, gloves, scarves, sweaters, and coats to keep warm. >> we need that in the back of our closet, but now shoppers are running out to increase their line of defense against that cold. nbc 10's south jersey bureau reporter cydney long caught up with customers in burlington and camden county. live in marlton this afternoon. >> you found the merchandise that didn't budge in december quickly beginning to vanish. >> reporter: yes, it is absolutely flying off the shelves from large retailers like l.l. bean to goodwill, the

his announcement would be later in the day, but the speculation is focused on the possibility sarah palin will throw her support behind trump. trump has said he's a big fan of the former alaska governor and have the shl nominee. you'll remember palin endorsed ted cruz in his senate run. today cruz made a stop in a new hampshire country store, but back in iowa cruz's campaign took a hit when the republican governor came out against cruz's candidacy, calling cruz an opponent of renewable biofuels and hopes cruz is defeated. >> supported renewable fuels and i believe that would be a big mistake for iowa to support it. >> the iowa caucus is february 1st, just about 13 days away. on the democratic side, hillary clinton continues to hold a lead on bernie sanders, but he is gaining support. >> a new poll released today shows sanders gained nine points in the last month. today sanders returned to iowa to campaign, dismissing claims

>> our town is built on a hill, so it's pretty tough for us. >> reporter: with no winter to show for being late january, spring city knew this year's nonwinter wouldn't last long. >> really lucky, very, very mild compared to most winters and we need a reprieve. >> reporter: two trucks and two workers who have been busy putting hydraulic fluid into the plows that took a beating during last year's endless winter. >> we went through some equipment last year and the year before cutting edges, plow pumps, spreaders. we went through quite a bit of money just with replacing some of the smaller equipment. >> reporter: bur roug manager saw last year's snowstorms put him $12,000 over budget with a town with a limited tax base and know this winter's budget surplus may not last long. >> few times salting, then, of course, watched the weather

forecast and not so sure how lucky we are now. >> reporter: they say they have a reserve fund in case what they budgeted runs out. doug shimell, nbc 10 news. >> so it's a waiting game until we get further into the week as to what exactly we're going to be dealing with in the way of snow and rain, but we know it's cold out there now, right, sheena? >> yeah, it is cold and very windy. it's going to keep fielding colder through tonight. another cold night tonight, but yes, everyone is paying very close attention to the winter storm by the end of the week. now it's one of the tracks plays out, i think the poconos will love it, but then we have a second track that maybe wouldn't give the poconos so much, so we are talking about some model uncertainty here. we will show you that, i'll show you that in just a second and we do expect snowfall across part of the area, still with both of these tracks but some parts will

be possibly seeing it more than others, but again i'll show you that in just a second. complicated with so many days out still. 29 degrees right now in philadelphia, winds are gusting close to 30, but sustained at 20 making it feel like 16 degrees outside. the rest of the area mostly feels like the teens, 12 degrees in dover and wilmington, feels like 4 up in the poconos. feels like 13 degrees in millville and georgetown. windy through tonight, too, gusty winds staying in place. right now nice and dry. as we go into tomorrow night, area of snow across parts of missouri that we're going to be watching closely. with this one we'll only see maybe some light snow showers late tomorrow, so i don't think that's going to be a big deal. winter storm for the end of the week is around the pacific northwest, that moisture you see eventually will be organizing and moving towards our area by friday, into saturday. we'll show you that in just a second. feels like temperatures through tonight, though, since it will be windy will be around feeling like 15 degrees by 8:00 tomorrow

morning through the philadelphia area. tomorrow night, though, feeling like the mid to low 20s, but there you see light snow showers moving through. don't be surprised if you see that late tomorrow. then we go into friday. this is the first scenario, storm track would put it closer to shore and here's what it would mean for the area, more snow as you get farther inland as we go from friday night into saturday. there's saturday 8:00 a.m., heaviest amounts north and west of philadelphia, so that would be the first scenario in this situation, areas north and west, heaviest snow, philadelphia areas snow to wintery mix through saturday. new jersey and delaware starting as snow and could see it transition over to rain on saturday. scenario two, the storm will be farther offshore, so we are seeing this with our computer models now as we go into midnight, slower to see that snow approaching, then we go into early saturday, saturday afternoon, not so much heavy snow anymore. that storm track is farther offshore but will be giving

quite a difference to the area, then we would expect the least amount of snow north and west of philadelphia, poconos wouldn't be happy about that situation. philadelphia we'd see the snow around, new jersey and delaware would be seeing the heaviest of the snow, so you see not a big difference in the track when you look at one compared to the other, but that track does influence where the precip fall and that would be giving up a bigger difference based on the two tracks. of course, more updates the rest of this week, as well. tonight windy and cold, temperatures around 19 degrees, philadelphia 15 areas north and west. tomorrow not as cold and windy, chance of late day snow showers. mostly at night i don't think it will be a big deal, 37 degrees for philadelphia, wednesday, thursday, not too bad, sunny and cold thursday, but then friday we'll be watching that storm approaching. so areas south will start to see the snow move in first as we go into friday night. again, going to depend on the track but either way it does look like we are going to be watching that snowstorm move up

into the area for saturday, so we have a first alert weather day out for late friday evening, we'll be getting the timing closer to and as we go through saturday, so we'll have to watch the two tracks very closely. >> it is still early, so there's a lot to look at as each day goes by. >> kind of what today shows. yesterday we didn't see much of a track of uncertainty, today we are seeing more. this wouldn't be moving in until late friday, so, of course, we'll have the updates. forecast will continue to change and we know this. we'll want you to watch closer into the weekend. >> absolutely. all right, we will be, sheena. we're learning more about the storm every hour it seems. our meteorologists like sheena and glenn and bill will be working to perfect the forecast as the storm approaches. you can get every update with the nbc 10 news app, of course, including forecasts, live radar, blogs, you can sign up for text alerts and see live pictures from our nbc 10 sky cam network all at your fingertips and it's free on the nbc 10 news app. so some fun -- some people

have created a new lawn decoration craze in minneapolis. >> one neighborhood is proving you don't need a belt or suspenders to keep pants in place when temperatures dip below freezing. check out the jeans standing up on their own. it all started when one guy took his pants right out of the washer and molded them into shape outside. now people throughout the neighborhood are doing it, too, and the streets look more like, well, a clothing store. >> i just ran them through the washing machine and brought them out after the spin cycle. it took a couple minutes to freeze, then they were easy to stand up once they started to freeze. >> the guy credited with starting the craze says his brother has been doing it for years, but the idea just took off in his neighborhood. >> cold enough to do it here now, too. >> yes, it is. >> maybe we'll see it. governments misplacing your money. >> that's what the nbc 10 investigators uncovered next. why millions of taxpayer dollars are unclaimed or even missing.

sheena. >> we're still tracking the winter storm before the week is over. coming up, two scenarios and what it could mean as far as snowfall. that's straight ahead.

nbc 10 breaking news. >> sky force 10 is live over breaking news in bucks county. crews are on the scene of this crash in bensalem. from sky force 10 you can see two cars are involved. they are quite a distance apart. this happened in the southbound lanes of 95. one lane is getting by as you can see, slowly, but that is creating a big traffic backup. we're told at least two people were trapped inside the cars. we'll let you know their conditions when we know.

now your nbc 10 first alert weather. >> strong winds whipping through center city today. despite the freezing temperatures, parents bundled the kids up and headed out near 22nd and ben franklin parkway. here's a live look at the conditions at camelback mountain ski resort, where skiers are enjoying colder temperatures after a delay when the slopes were closed for much of december. quiet out there. the poconos could soon get real snow. >> sheena parveen is back, tracking this winter storm threat and bitter cold, as well. sheena? >> poconos, yeah, with one storm track could see a good amount of snowfall into the end of the week, but until we get there, still dealing with the cold and the wind still below freezing outside, winds are still sustained near 20 to 25 miles an hour. it's making temperatures feel like the teens right now. feels like 16 degrees in philadelphia, 12 in wilmington and dover, 15 is what it feels

like in allentown at the moment, 11 in atlantic city. take a look what it will keep feeling like through tonight, single digits through part of the area and if you're heading out through 7:00 tomorrow morning, going to feel like single digits in some spots again, 9 degrees in millville, 8 degrees in wilmington. by 7:00 a.m., 1 in the poconos. still a bitter cold morning tomorrow. the afternoon not as cold and not as windy. a bit of a relief as we go through tomorrow afternoon, and then we continue to watch that winter storm by the end of the week, so we are actually looking at friday 9:00 in the morning, that's when the storm would approach the area. we really have two scenarios here as of now. we're still several days out, but we're seeing a bit of a disagreement with some of the computer models, small track change could lead to a big difference across the area. first scenario puts the storm track closer to shore. at that point saturday at midnight we would already see snow moving in and then we go into saturday and there you see

some heavy snow farther north and west that would last through saturday, clearing up sunday. what we would expect is heavy snow through parts of the lehigh valley, poconos, north and west of philadelphia, snow to wintery mix in philadelphia, new jersey and delaware, snow changing over to rain. again i mentioned two scenarios, this is just one of them. coming up, the rest of the area as far as who's going to see the heaviest snowfall. that's straight ahead. millions of your tax dollars have been found. does it get your attention? hope so. >> this is always a fun story, nbc 10 investigators discover government agencies across pennsylvania that were missing money. nbc 10 investigative reporter mitch blacher discovered it in the state's unclaimed property office. tell us more, mitch. >> from small boroughs to big cities, government agencies relying on our tax dollars, but questions came up when we discovered some of our money missing.

inside this vault buried deep beneath a government building in harrisburg, the commonwealth stores and tracks $2.3 billion worth of unclaimed property and money. a deeper look at all that missing money reveals millions of dollars belong to local governments. >> money that is entitled to the government really is owed to the taxpayers. >> reporter: pennsylvania's deputy state treasurer oversees the unclaimed property office. since 2009 it's found and returned more than $100,000 to the cash strapped school district of philadelphia, more than $152,000 to montgomery county, and more than $274,000 to delaware county. >> should a municipality know the money is missing? >> they should. >> reporter: sometimes they don't, so every six months the staff searches through missing property and money to reunite taxpayers with what their local governments forgot about. according to the state treasury, no other agency in southeastern

pennsylvania had more money missing than the city of philadelphia. since 2009 the city has been reunited with more than $783,000. the city's finance director tells us sometimes people send money meant for the city to the wrong place. other times city staff forgets to deposit checks. after two years banks turn over undeposited checks to the state treasury. is this a symptom of a greater problem, the fact you forget to deposit certain checks? >> well, i guess i would look at it the other way, which is we make sure we get the money. >> reporter: taxpayers told us -- >> i think it's a problem with management, yes. >> reporter: every tax dollar should always be accounted for. >> they should know. >> reporter: mike agreed. >> that to me shows you're not being a good steward of taxpayer dollars. >> reporter: nobody has reunited with more missing money than the allentown representative. with his help they found nearly half a million of their own isz

ma missing money. >> you don't have to scroll or move, you type in your name, and there's all the claims under a name. >> reporter: he said it should be that easy for local governments. >> it's not hard to check out, just a matter of saying look at this website every few months. >> in philadelphia the city treasurer checks once a year for unclaimed money. the kenney administration is moving the city toward only accepting online payments in part so no more checks go uncashed. perhaps the solution on the horizon. >> make it more efficient. >> we know about pa, what about new jersey and delaware? >> we checked that out and here's what we found. in new jersey the state would not tell us how much unclaimed property and money the state keeps, while in delaware they told us they have more than $1.6 billion worth and some of the money does belong to local governments. we found in delaware there's money belonging to the city of philadelphia, montgomery county, as well as the entire state of pennsylvania. >> and there's so much money out

there. like you said, it's not difficult, you just have to take the step and make the effort. >> just like. it's tax money. this whole story was about our tax dollars. >> very important. >> glad you're on it, mitch, thank you. a delaware hospital is changing how it discharges newborn babies. >> coming up next, the new way doctors will ensure children are going back to safe homes. plus, the glitch that could make your battery look charged when it's not. what causes the problem and how to fix it next.

from our delaware bureau today, hospitals there are changing the way they discharge high risk mothers following an uptick in newborns addicted to drugs and alcohol. hospitals will check for six criteria. if a mother does not pass all six, the hospital will send a report to the division of services, to make sure high risk moms don't fall through the cracks without supervision. apple is working on a fix for its latest iphones. right now the 6s and 6s plus are not properly showing how much battery life is left. the problem happens when you change the time or if you change time zones when you travel. so here's a simple fix, restart your phone, in settings go to date and time and make sure it's set automatically to turn on. did you follow that? >> yes, i've got it. it was the mistake on live tv that's made international headlines. >> steve harvey announcing the wrong winner at the miss

universe pageant. you remember that one. well, today we saw the tell all reunion. next, what miss colombia had to say about the heart breaking mistake. and we're tracking a winter storm heading into your weekend. coming up, what it could look like for part of the area based on certain storm tracks. we'll look at that straight ahead. winter is hard on your nose. from first sniffles to endless runny noses. puffs plus lotion is soft. they help soothe irritation by locking in moisture better so you can face winter happily. a nose in need deserves puffs indeed. and try puffs softpack today.

this is nbc 10 news. >> colombia! i will take responsibility for this. it was my mistake. it was on the card. >> it was the mistake heard around the world and played out like a bad joke, but for comedian steve harvey and the miss universe contestant, it was no laughing matter. >> today the talk show host came face to face with colombia for

the first time since mistakenly crowning her winner of the miss universe pageant. >> because of the mistake i made, i cast you into a spotlight, a place, that i never intended to. that i would not want to happen to anybody. i just want to say how sorry i am. i really, i'm beyond sorry for what happened that night. >> harvey said his family actually received death threats. miss colombia accepted his apology and told steve when it first happened she thought it was all a big joke. >> he's going to be again in the mood, you know, making people laugh, make some jokes, you know, like oprah, you're miss universe, you're miss universe! everyone is miss universe! >> yesterday on his show steve harvey talked about the pageant

winner, miss philippines. she said she's put it all behind her. good to see miss colombia has a sense of humor about it all. >> yes, she does. whether you watch the steve harvey show or pageant, everyone knew that took place. >> that's the definition of something going viral when that happens, right, sheena? >> pretty much. also what's going viral is the winter storm as we go to the end of the week, so we're going to show you what the models are showing on that and what you may be able to expect. that's what we're talking about, aside from the cold and wind right now, we're looking ahead to friday and saturday, a winter storm will be moving up the midatlantic states. there is uncertainty right now, which is starting to change where the snow area would be, but we are still quite a few days out. we expect snowfall across the area, but it's a matter of who's going to get the heaviest of the snowfall. we'll show you that in a second. right now the feels like temperature in the teens, very

cold outside with a cold air mass in place. below freezing with the actual temperature and it's windy, so it feels like the middle to low teens. there you see the flag blowing, winds are up. take a look overnight tonight. first line is the actual temperature going into 7:00 tomorrow morning, staying around 20 degrees, upper teens through most of the area, but that feels like temperature still going to be around ten degrees colder by the time you walk outside tomorrow. so still going to be very cold as you head out the door tomorrow morning, but by the afternoon it won't be as cold as windy. that will be a nice break. right now nice and dry, tomorrow later at night we could see snow showers move through, i don't think it will be a big deal, but we could see some and that will be coming from this weather system out in parts of minnesota, or minneapolis, i should say, or missouri, and we're going to see that heading in our direction. that stretches up near the great lakes there. our other weather system by the end of the week coming from the

pacific northwest, that would eventually move across the country and become that winter storm we've been talking about. so here's what it will look like as we go through the next 48 hours. right now we're going to continue to stay dry, even into tomorrow morning, 8:00 actual temperatures here, that will be around about the mid to low 20s, but feeling about ten degrees colder. through tomorrow afternoon, not as windy and highs in about the mid 30s through most of the area, so not as cold. then we go into tomorrow night, 10:00, 11:00, something to watch out for. thursday, though, we do stay dry. then we go into friday. if you're watching at 4:30, i showed you the first si naer you, we also have scenario number two if the storm track were to be farther offshore, that would change the area of snowfall. snow approaching from the south, this again is scenario two, which would be giving areas north and west less snow, but by saturday that snow falling across the area, that storm

farther offshore, so we'll see a difference from when i showed you the first scenario. new jersey and delaware would see the heaviest snow, philadelphia snow and north and west the least amount of snow. we are watching a couple different scenarios right now. right now windy and cold, 19 for the low in philadelphia, 15 areas north and west. tomorrow won't be as windy or cold, so a nice bit of a relief, 35 to 38 degrees, chance of some late night snow showers, but they'll be on the lighter side. we go into thursday, sunny and cold, 37 for the high, then by friday and saturday we watch that winter storm approaching late friday, into saturday, so we'll see some snow around parts of the area, but again that track is going to determine who sees what. of course, more updates the rest of this week. as the cold continues, did your car start this morning? >> oh, boy, for some the answer is no. next, the impact the cold has on your car and what you can do to make sure it survives the winter.

arctic air making it bitterly cold out there and there's no doubt this prolonged cold can impact your car. >> a lot of people woke up this morning with dead batteries and no heat. deanna durante is live with more on what we can do to protect our cars. deanna? >> reporter: yeah, as people are heading home tonight, cars parked in the driveways, maybe a nice warm garage for the evening, however, the longer they sit idle in this cold weather, that means you should take care in the morning when you go out, turn them on, let them run and don't ignore any warning lights. >> just got the jeep two years ago, waiting for a challenge from some snow. >> reporter: craig hunter says his car is ready, but judging by

the sight, many other cars are not. while some of the work is quick -- >> just a simple jump start. >> reporter: some need a ride to the auto repair center. many jobs are a direct result of the frigid weather. >> as the weather changes and gets colder, people should pay attention to their batteries, fluid levels, radiators, make sure the coolant levels are where they should be. >> reporter: his family has been in the auto repair business for generations and knows this time of year what to expect. a lot of the work he's seeing now is for the pros. >> so we got plows and salt spreaders, getting a lot of requests for that this week. >> reporter: craig hunter says he's going to be ready, he just wants to see what his jeep can do in the snow. >> gassing it up, all ready to go, yep. >> reporter: and before you go, again, remember let the car run a little bit before you head off to work. always a good idea. coming up tonight at 6:00, we'll

take you inside some homes left overnight without any heat. again, that's at 6:00. now live, deanna durante, nbc 10 news. >> not the time of year you want to see that happen. >> no, such a dangerous time. nbc 10 news at 5:00 is next. >> here's keith jones. >> we're tracking that winter storm, the nbc 10 first alert weather team has new information right now. right, sheena? >> that's right, keith. we're watching what the storm may be doing by the end of the week. locally right now it's around the pacific northwest, but we have two scenarios to show you on who can expect heavier snow. that's coming up. plus, not just humans who need help in this bitter cold weather. why the owners of this dog are facing charges for what they didn't do to protect their pet.

storm and another night of below freezing temperatures. >> yes, that's right, keith. before we get to the storm, we still have a very windy and cold night to get through. winds are going to keep gusting tonight, making temperatures feel colder. sustained winds right now anywhere from about 15 to 25 miles an hour across the area, making it feel like the teens for much of us. 14 in allentown, 17 in philadelphia, 13 in millville and dover and as we go overnight tonight, going to feel close to 10 degrees below the actual temperature. take a look here, feels like temperature dropping down down into freezing digits much of the area, then feeling like 12 degrees in philadelphia, feeling like 10 in allentown, possibly feeling like a 9 in millville, dover 8 degrees and wilmington. so another bitter start tomorrow, not as windy or cold by tomorrow afternoon, and then, of course, we are talking about the snowstorm as we go, or the winter storm as we go into the end of this week.
