rain showers in the allentown area, and also berks county right now. we have seen scattered showers at new jersey and the shore. but most of the heavier stuff is well to the west. this is it line we have been watching since 4:00 this morning. that's when those showers were in extreme northwestern pennsylvania. still a few sprinkles in that area, but this line is sweeping into the area this afternoon. our area this afternoon. with it will come a chance of some heavy downpours. the first batch of heavier rain has moved to the north. but you can see some moderate showers now moving into western lancaster county at this hour. the winds won't be all that strong until we get thunderstorm development this afternoon. and then we could see some gusty winds, as a southerly wind at 5 miles per hour is part of why we're warming up. but the wind at the shore is keeping things a bit cooler there. it's coming off that chillier ocean. so now 65 degrees in philadelphia. 60s in the lehigh valley and the pennsylvania suburbs where it started off in the 50s this

the suburbs. it will be a little bit cooler. 68 degrees. late day sunshine after the showers move through. same story in the lehigh valley. showers and a chance of thunderstorms then breaks in the clouds late in the afternoon. the clouds will hang in for new jersey and at the shore. 60s with showers uz riving. we have seen a few sprinkles, but heavier downpours with thunderstorms possible late this afternoon and into the early evening hours at the shore. and delaware, you can turn off the sprinklers in wilmington. 70 degrees this afternoon. a chance of storms for dover and lewis as well. today will not be the only opportunity to water the lawn. tomorrow we'll get more storms after some sunshine in the morning. and into the early afternoon hours. those storms will come through a little later tomorrow afternoon compared to today. then we're clearing out and cooling down for sunday. 59 degrees the high temperature, and wind will be blowing to keep things cooler. monday, bright sunshine. a little warmer. that's the beginning of a warming trend.

upper 60 on tuesday, then back into the 70s for wednesday and thursday, closer to 80 degrees. tuesday, wednesday, and thursday, a chance of some showers. then that shower threat takes a break for next weekend. friday, saturday, and sunday. we will be well into the 70s, and it should be dry. vai. >> thank you, bill. still ahead, checkpoints, choke points. that's the reality for travelers at our nation's airports. hear while the government says the long lines we have seen at security check points may get even worse and why experts recommend travelers treat every day like a holiday travel day. >> can't wait for the start of football season? frans are excited for what the eagles have in store and the first of its kind festival is coming to the link to help die hp hards kick off their passion for the birds a little early.

laguardia flyer, come on, tsa. >> what you need to do is treat every day this summer like a holiday travel day. it's going to be busy. >> that was nbc's tom costello reporting. well, a new limited series from dateline nbc called on assignment is bringing you to places you have never seen before, and giving you access to people with incredible stories, all from an award-winning team of nbc news kraunlts. this week's on assignment takes us to a pacific island so protected and so pristine that tv cameras have never been there. nbc's harry smith went on the adventure to palmyra and joins us with a preview of his story that you can see sunday night. >> i'm from the south pacific island of tonga. and i saw your report last night on nightly news. i have never heard of this place. tell us more about it. >> i know. isn't it amazing? we never heard of it either. then we heard more about it, and then somebody said, you know,

television cameras have never been there. so for your geography, it's 1,000 miles, almost due south of hawaii. and about 400 miles north of the equator. so it's out there, it's out there. if you google it, the little thing will pop up and you hit minus, minus, it really is out there in the middle of nowhere. it is an amazing place. it was used for troops in world war ii, almost completely flattened and nature has been given the opportunity to sort of take its course, and with a little bit of help, this place is really healing itself. so it stands as an example of what can happen when we take some of the stress, the environmental stress, the human stresses off a, and it's just beautiful reefs, phenomenal fish, awesome birds. you could go there and say this is about practically close to paradise. >> it very much looks like my

ancestral homeland as i remember it. i understand you and your crew had to seal and freeze your clothes before you even stepped foot on the island. tell us what that was about. >> yeah well, so part of the deal there is that they're trying to get rid of the invasive species and to insure that no one brings any new invasive species in, they called up, they said we want you to buy new clothes, bring them home, put them in sealed bags, pult them in a freezer for at least 48 hours before you come here. because we don't want you to track anything in from the outside world with you. we were very dutiful about that. i can say for the first time in my life, i have actually frozen my underwear. so there you have it. >> that's tmi right there. one last question. tell us why scientists are so interested in studying this place. >> well, especially with coral reefs, we have been reporting all winter about the bleached coral reefs especially in the great barrier reef and how climate change is affecting this.

and as you well know, as the oceans go, so go our planet, right? so much of our oxygen, so much of our food supply comes out of the ocean. and it's the reefs that are really the engine for all of that. here's this place where even when there is climate change, it's so protected, so pristine, they can resiliently bounce back. so this is kind of a petri dish, a possibility we say in the story, of what can be. and it's kind of sitting as an example of, okay, so this is what it's like when it's good. maybe all should settle down with all your nastiness, all the nastiness that you're doing to the planet. give it a chance to catch its breath a little bit. >> a lot of vested interest, but i think we all have a vested interest in seeing what the coral there, what it speaks to our future. to see more of the water interview and his visit to pal my r
