as we race through the early afternoon, you saw it there, some heavier down pours. these are isolated in nature and especially south and east of the city, we could be looking at some isolated thunderstorms. i think the best thunderstorm activity as glenn pointed out is where we're going to see the warmest air. if that warm front moves north of us, then i think the metro area could be in on some of that action as well. keith. >> the white house is ready to take action against so-called sanctuary cities. >> they make our nation less safe by putting dangerous criminals back on the streets. >> attorney general jeff sessions said today he will begin punishing sanctuary cities by withholding federal money. sanctuaries cities offer safe harbor for undocumented citizens. philadelphia is one of them. lauren mayk. >> defiant about maintaining

day and that helped push the temperature up. 59 in philly airport, but it's 50s in manayunk, 56 in summerton. the lowest temperature in the city of philadelphia itself right now. we've had some showers earlier today. they've moved off shore, couple of very light showers in the area now. we have more in west virginia that could potentially reach us before daybreak. the heavier stuff would not be reaching us till tomorrow. the fog that we're getting now already is creating some delays at the airport and we may have a lot more as we go into tomorrow. it's going to be coming in from the ocean, so cape may, atlantic city you're going to get the low advise abilities first and as we head toward the morning rush, this computer tends to exaggerate the fog, it's still going to be an issue in the

morning across a good bit of the area and those clouds are going to be hanging around during much of the day. so showers coming through during the night. by tomorrow morning it's mostly fog issue. there's noontime, some showers, maybe even thunderstorms. then another round coming through, so this is not an all day thing. it's not a total washout. not everybody's going to get showers and thunderstorms but the threat is certainly there for just about any part of the area, the best chance for any of that is farther to the south. so, yes, there's a chance in the philadelphia area but you notice, i don't have thunderstorms in for the lehigh valley or berks county. there's still a possibility of west chester, newton square, but farther to the south the chance gets better. mount airy slight chance, better chance as we go toward glassboro with high of 72 degrees and the

best chance of all farther to the south in south jersey and in delaware where it's quite warm during the day. and over this weekend, we've got another day with rain, friday with some heavy rain, saturday with rain, but sunday looks like it's going to be dry. >> thank you so much. we want to turn our sights now to a montgomery county baby who's become a viral hit because of his luscious locks. >> this head of hair you can't stop looking at it. it got the attention of ellen. take a look. finds out how baby theo mothers maintains that mane. that's next at 4:00.
