feels like close to 100 across much of the area now. as we go through the night tonight, and into the morning, it's feeling like 80s. to start the day. and then in the afternoon, feeling like 102 in philadelphia, 103 in trenton and burlington. 100 in dover. and then take a look at what happens. by sunday afternoon, at 3:30 p.m., 82. not 102, 82. that's a 20-degree difference in the way it's going to feel. as we go through the night tonight, a few showers possible. up toward the lehigh valley, and poconos. tomorrow afternoon, if there is any, it would be generally to the north. saturday night, and into very, very early sunday morning would be the most likely time for any kind of showers. but by the time the eagles are

playing, that rain is all gone. the humidity is dropping. 75 tailgating. 81 kickoff. 86 degrees by the end of the game. so that is spectacular. for the shore, nothing but sunshine on saturday. a few clouds on sunday. with the lower humidity. and in the pocono mountains, possible shower or thunderstorm late saturday, and then much, much cooler on sunday. a bright spot after a quake that killed hundreds. more than two weeks later, a miracle has emerged from the rubble. watch as a remarkable tale of survive plays out before the cameras. plus this. >> it was stupid. it was a stupid idea. >> commercial controversy. how a 20-second mattress ad resulted in some major backlash. >> and phones on a plane. a first of its kind warning for

parkside 95. 95 in somerton as well. that is too hot. and we have high humidity on top of that. a couple of little showers moving west to east through the lehigh valley. and the poconos. and that trend will continue through the evening. it's obviously nothing very heavy at the moment. and the future cast shows nothing more than some isolated showers tomorrow afternoon. but the main threat would be tomorrow night, overnight tomorrow night, if that front that's coming through holds together, that's the front that's going to bring us the more comfortable air as we go into sunday. here we are at 1:00 p.m. there's the clearing line, nothing but sunshine for the north and west. so the clouds may be at the shore for sunday morning, and then even the shore starts to clear. now, we have record heat today in parts of the area. 95 in philadelphia.
