5:08 pm
clinton from becoming president. trump later insisted he was talking only about their right to vote. clinton fired back at a campaign rally today saying america cannot tolerate this kind of politics. >> words matter, my friends. yesterday we witnessed the latest in a long line of casual comments from donald trump that crossed the line. >> meanwhile, hillary clinton has her own crisis brewing today. a new e-mail release suggests contributors got special treatment by the state department. we want to turn to breaking news happening right now out of new york city. someone is climbing the outside of trump tower. there's a live picture of it. police haven't said exactly why this person is climbing the building. it's home, of course, to donald trump's campaign headquarters. he also happens to live there. nbc news reached out to a campaign spokesperson who didn't

5:11 pm
possible but for the fact that philadelphia is a sanctuary city. >> reporter: a spokeswoman for mayor kenny said he stands by the city's policy on cooperation with i.c.e. and that, quote, the federal government had full authority to obtain an arrest warrant for this deportation offense in 2014. if they had done so, the individual would have been released into their custody without any interference from the city. toomey also pointed to former mayor nutter's change to the policy at the end of his term saying it's not a partisan issue. >> folks, this is not about immigration. it's not about the politics of immigrati immigration. it's about public safety, about common sense, about all of our security. >> toomey criticized his opponent, katie mcginty, not to end this policy, too. i reached out to her campaign and they told me she has been, quote, clear that she wants federal and local law enforcement to work together. they accused him of copying the

5:18 pm
raindrop, and this is a hailstone. now, old school radar would just take a horizontal sweep. if you look at that, that would mean they were the exact same size when obviously that's not the case. with our dual pole radar, we're now going to have a horizontal sweep to tell us the width as well as vertical sweep. we'll know have a 2-d view of what's falling in the sky around you. we're going to have that truck in your neighborhood down at the ground. that means we're going to be able to determine if we're seeing rain, snow, or hail right near your neighborhood where it matters most as it's falling to the surface. that's something that only we can say at nbc 10. back to you. >> yeah, krystal, it will be so useful when we get it close to storms and we have storms actually moving into the area. it will give us a more detailed look, and that is something that no other station has. so we will certainly provide the
5:19 pm
specifics of those storms. we do have some heading our way, but also a heat wave. this is a live look at rehoboth beach right now. it is hot across the area, especially if you are in delaware at the moment. and through the next several days feeling like triple digits. if you look at the seven-day at the bottom of your screen, you see we have a lot of 90-degree temperatures in a row, and that, in fact, is a heat wave for the area. we do expect a heat wave to be upon us, especially starting with today. temperatures will continue to be in the 90s as we go into the next several days. so, yes, we have a heat wave in the forecast. temperatures will be staying in the 90s from today on out right now. we're already in the 90s across a big portion of the area. and with the humidity on top of that, it's actually going to feel like triple-digit heat. coming up, we'll talk more about the heat wave in the forecast, and also we'll talk about your shore cast coming up. we'll look at the storms ahead as well as your weekend forecast. that's all straight ahead. >> we'll see you shortly.
