lawyers say if they had that information and would have been disclosed the outcome would have been different and lynn would not have been found guilty. prosecutors say this case is an abomination and say they gave all documents they had to the defense prior to the trial. even the if the judge rules against the defense in this motion, monsignor lynn is set to have a new trial start later this year. in center city, deanna durante. in washington the house has approved a measure that will make it to dismantle the healthcare law. it's considered the first step to doing away with obamacare. it will allow congressional republicans to repeal the law with a simple majority. president obama spoke about the future of the affordable care act in a conversation with nbc's lester holt. you can see the dateline special, barack obama the reality of hope tonight at 10:00 only on nbc 10. join us for nbc 10 news at

result of this accident. we will keep an eye on the situation for us. it looks like it's going to take a while to clean up that scene. we know that wet weather was not a contributing factor to that. wet weather is coming our way. >> a little bit of snow coming for some of us, right, glenn? >> that's right. most of us it's also going to be melting. and so the roads, just like i-95 right now, i expect to be mainly just wet during the afternoon tomorrow. it will be dry during the morning because nothing will be falling. 48 in philadelphia. still way too warm for any snow. we're starting to cool down, lehigh valley, 41. and in delaware, northern delaware, the place that is most likely to see perhaps an inch of snow, we'll watch these temperatures. neighborhood by neighborhood during the day tomorrow. 49 in wilmington town. 46 in harmony hills, 45 in glasgow. close to 50 in parts of southern delaware. these areas are likely to see

either rain or a bit of a mixture that also would melt when it hits. temperatures will be above freezing. but it's going to start feeling colder, that's for sure. feeling like 20s as we head through the evening. that's compared to our record warmth yesterday. so you'll feel that chill later on tonight and tomorrow morning. really, just about all the day tomorrow, it's barely going to feel like it's above freezing. in some areas, it won't even feel like that. on the live radar, well, we have no returns nearby. this is the weak system moving in west to east. and it's not going to get a chance to strengthen. in fact, it looks like it might weaken as this moisture moves into high pressure that's up over new england. you can see here, actually a better chance of snow, washington, d.c., baltimore, than what we're going to see in the philadelphia area. there we are 11:30. we're starting to see a little bit of that light snow. delaware, south jersey, into

philadelphia. so some flakes, yes. big snowfall, no. and later in the day, when it gets dark, and stuff could have a better chance of sticking, the snow's over. so the reasons for limited problems being expected. the roads are warm from the 60s yesterday and the 50s and the 40s today. the timing, the snow falls during the daytime hours. so that would lead it to try to melt along with the temperatures that are marginal or perhaps even above freezing while this is happening. so if we get that one inch of snow, mostly on glassy surfaces, again the best chance at the computer models show from chester county down into central delaware. that, of course, would be the only threat of snow for the next week, at least. now, in our neighborhood forecast, you'll notice lehigh valley and berks county, i don't have any snowflakes there.

if you get any, it will be more like flurries. the other areas like fairmount, 37. you can get 37 then you get a little snow, cools down a little. but that's not enough to ice up any kind of roads. we're going to be seeing a bit of mixture in the jersey shore and parts of delaware. again, temperatures above freezing. a new rule in written house square. >> it's not sitting well with some residents. >> i don't think that there's any damage. i don't think there's any danger. and i think this is an overreaction. >> still ahead at 4:00, while police and park officials are enforcing the ordinance. plus, a woman says her vanity got the best of her and it ended up costing her a few hundred dollars. why she's staring her story with the nbc 10 responds team to teaspo teach us all a lesson. eight years ago on a cold november day we greeted you on the steps at the white house. >> and a special letter from a

another look from sky force 10 over this breaking traffic news on the northeast extension of the pennsylvania turn pike. a crash between the quakertown and landsdale exits. we have learned a person who was trapped has been rescued and that person has been taken to the hospital. as you can see from these pictures from sky force 10 the crash involved a tractor trailer and a van. this is happening in the southbound lanes. one lane as you can see is getting by slowly. traffic is backed up for miles.

avoid that area if you can. the obama sisters leave the white house next week. >> as they get ready to restart their lives as private citizens, they're getting some tips from two people who know what it's like. >> malia and sasha, eight years ago on a cold november day, we greeted you on the steps at the white house. >> that's jenna bush hager and barbara bush reading a letter they wrote to malia and sasha. eight years ago the twins gave the girls the first tour of the white house. they penned a letter to them offering advice as their father took office. now they're reaching out again with malia and sasha about to join the club of former first children. >> enjoy college. as most of the world knows, we did. and you won't have the weight of the world on your young shoulders anymore. explore your passions, learn who you are. make mistakes. you're allowed to. >> the full letter is published in the most recent issue of time magazine.

the obamas have said how gracious the bush family has been throughout the entire transition process. >> great advice there, right? >> really fun to hear. we're one week away from the inauguration of donald trump. >> the new president will make a lot of decisions in the washington. there's one thing he won't get to decide on, it's the food. still ahead at 4:00. we'll go into the kitchen to find out what's being served after mr. trump is sworn in. now, we've got some saturday snow that could impact weekend plans for some people in our area. i'm tracking who is going to see what. plus, another blast of some cold air. and more than what she bargained for. an nbc 10 viewer learned a lesson the hard way when purchasing cosmetics online. the nbc 10 response team has a warning about those enticing free product trials. next.

afternoon and night. just a few returns in west virginia, mostly in kentucky and back into the middle of the country. so it's going to be a while before we see any of this snow. certainly nothing tonight and nothing first thing in the morning. you traveling down toward baltimore, washington, it's a different story. they're going to be getting a little bit more snow and a little bit earlier as well. this generally comes toward the midday hours and in through the afternoon. this is mostly light. the temperatures are kind of marginal. the roads have been warm. just as it gets dark, it will be cold enough to start sticking. the whole thing starts to break up. so timing is on our side here, if you want to be able to get around tomorrow. it's 48 in philadelphia now. only place below freezing or even close to freezing is mount poco pocono. but with the northerly wind, the colder air is coming in and it's going to feel like winter later

on tonight and into tomorrow. look at these temperatures. doesn't really go up very much. so 30s at best. but that may be just enough to make that light snow melt on the roads. more on the rest of the weekend and some weird weather next week, too. coming up. in today's nbc 10 spnsrespo a woman says her vanity got the best of her. >> it ended up costing her a few hundred dollars. as a warning to you she's staring her story with harry hairston. >> one late night on the computer, cathy saw a pop up ad. she decided today visit its website. the website secret serums state a single drop of its product can make the wrinkles stop. >> this got me because of my vanity. i'll be 59. >> the company offered to ship her two bottles for $11. >> i thought let me give it a shot. >> that was back in october.

but it also means uniform temperatures at the shore. 49 in ocean city. 47 in mullica township. look at the temperature difference between today and yesterday. 22 degrees colder in coatesville than this time yesterday. 20 degrees colder in trenton and mount holly. remember we had records yesterday. and we're going from the records yesterday to feels like temperatures in the 20s. during the night tonight, and into tomorrow morning, nothing bitter cold, certainly nothing record cold. nothing like last weekend. but after temperatures in the 60s, you'll feel that chill. and it will be there all day tomorrow and into the night tomorrow night. so the weekend, going to be fairly close to a typical january with the temperatures. not compared to yesterday. but that's a january average. patchy light snow on saturday. and then mild again.

very mild for most of next week. nothing on the live radar close by. we have a few returns out by washington. and a few more the further west you get. a big ice storm in the middle of the country to potentially even affect kansas city for the playoff game on sunday. the hour by hour showing some of that light snow coming in, but not early enough tomorrow to hit these colder temperatures. and so the later it comes, the more we get to warm up, the more likely that snow is to melt. especially if it continues to be light the way the computer models have been trending over the last couple of days. and then as it gets cold enough, when it gets dark, the whole system moves out. so we're more optimistic about getting through the day without any kind of serious problems. sunday, of course, going to be a nice sunny day. that's perfectly safe.

we have a little bit of light snow, parts of the suburbs you can see temperatures getting above freezing, even in langhorn. hardly any snow, if any in easton and allentown with high temperatures in the 40s as well. at the jersey shore and delaware there's a little bit of mixture in some placewis with rain and snow as temperatures get well above the freezing mark. that's going to be quite a change from what we're going to be seeing -- what we saw last week. then on sunday, look at this, sunshine everywhere. temperatures in the 40s. not bad at all. >> okay. you cannot sit here. >> philly park officials have put a new rule in place. not everyone is happy about it. we'll explain next at 4:00. by peggy lee playing ]

all new at 4:00, no more sitting on the wall at written house square. >> the new signs went up this week, but they aren't sitting well with some people. nbc 10 erin coleman is joining us. the new rule has a lot of people asking why now? >> parks and recreation department told me the wall structurally was never intended to have people sit on it. some people who sit on it say the park is for the public and they'll continue to use it as they please. among the dog walkers and the baby strollers, it didn't take long to spot people doing something that's now banned. sitting on the wall. >> it's a public park that people shouldn't be afraid to use. >> i definitely think that sitting on the walls is just part of the park. this is one of the most diversely used spaces in philadelphia. and i don't know why they'd want to hinder that.

>> philadelphia's parks and recreation department put up the four signs earlier this week. a spokesperson says it's in response to an uptick on vandalism and to preserve the integrity of the wall. particularly after a million dollar restoration project a few years back. >> i get it. but i was surprised. >> i feel like i know why they went up. i don't happen if it's the most productive thing. >> especially since some say sitting up here is part of the fabric of the park. part of the draw that makes it what it is. >> a little bit of a bummer. >> how do you enforce this? that's a good question. police officers at this point can ask people to not sit on the wall. if they choose to stay up there, that's as far as it goes. the philadelphia police officer assigned to the park asked this group to stay off the wall. >> i hopped back on it. >> they're not the only ones who say they'll continue to do it. >> i don't think there's any damage. i don't think that there is any danger. and i think this is an

overreaction. >> now, some in the community say the signs, along with several new no smoking signs will also cut back on the drug use in the park. many park goers told us the new rule is a bad idea and planning on a sit on protest next week. we're working on several new stories at 5:00. thousands of parents' healthcare records have been breached. next all new at 5:00. we talk to a victim who is sc m scrambling to save her stolen information. conditions were dry for today but we're tracking snow on the way. cooler temperatures on saturday and tracking snow. question controversy, the homework assignment that had some parents scratching their heads.
