now. skies right now generally clear across our p.a. suburbs, philadelphia into south jersey. cooler across southern new jersey. society hill at 73 in pensport, same for those in west mount airy, park side at 72. as we've seen the last couple days it's cooler toward the shore, 66 now in upper township, ocean city 67 f we go further inland we're in the mid-60s that includes those in mays landing and for tomorrow we're looking at much more active day. we can have spotty storms in the morning hours but between 6 and 9:00 in the morning that would be areas south and east. i'm not thinking those will be severe. as the day goes on the heating of the day, the sun's going to come out. that helps destabilize the atmosphere. later in the day the thunderstorms can develop. looking generally isolated but it's really from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. we're going to see our cold front move through.

that's going to ignite strong to severe storms that contain damaging wind, hail, heavy downpours and we can't rule out an isolated tornado. it's going to be a little bit before we get the less humid air mass. a lot of stormy weather across the eastern u.s. and that extends from the northeast down toward the mid-atlantic. even down in through the southeast as well. at the moment we're only seeing showers moving in to some of our western areas, lancaster and berks county, corbin county as well. tomorrow we find ourselves in this enhanced risk area for thunderstorms. we don't see this too often. this means conditions are very favorable for the thunderstorms to intensify so again, if you have outdoor plans in the afternoon and into the evening you'll want to make sure you are sticking with us for changing conditions. overnight again i mentioned we can see spotty stuff move through early in the morning, late in the day still looking spotty although these can be locally heavy. it's later in the day we'll see our line organize across western

areas, here 5:30, that's heavy rain that shifts east across the i-95 corridor. here is 8:00. that will be shifting toward our shore points, perhaps 9:00 at night before eventually moving on through and we'll start to see clearing late sunday night into monday morning. again, we're talking about the potential for heavy rain with this, along with the damaging winds. perhaps 3/4 inch of rain in philadelphia could be even heavier north and west toward the lehigh valley. you'll want to make sure you are keeping an eye to the sky tomorrow in the afternoon and into the evening hours, the storms can be nasty. we clear out nicely on monday, the sun returns, the temperature doesn't drop down a lot but less humid. tuesday the chance for showers does return, it's not looking severe. tomorrow if you have outdoor plans you'll want to be careful.

hello. we continue to look back at the life of muhammad ali who died last night at the age of 74. one of his greatest fights was the rumble in the jungle against george foreman in 1974. foreman was the reigning champion and came out strong. after taking the best foreman had to offer ali knocked foreman down and the referee stopped the fight. >> the rumble in the jungle i called it the mugging in the jungle. i went there with two heavyweight title belts, came out with none. the thing, we would meet all the time and discuss bible scriptures and religion. we'd argue, get thirsty and hope to meet again so we could do more and get thirsty. but we always ended with a big embrace. he loved me.

things are changing. >> absolutely. we're saying that all week. each for tomorrow conditions are going to be changing quickly. could be looking at spotty storms for the first part of the day, but it's later on, let's say right around 3:00 into the evening hours when the strong to severe storms are going to move in and i think it's going to be very windy with those, we're talking potential for damaging winds and heavy rain. aside from the damaging wind potential we'll need to watch for localized flooding f. you have plans or traveling to do you'll want to make sure you are keeping a close eye on the weather. >> we'll be tracking it all day tomorrow and the nbc 10 app. got you covered. thank you very much. that is "nbc 10 news" for now. for all of us i'm george spencer. have a great saturday night.
