spectacle. meteorologi meteorologistkrystal klye explains what crossed the path. >> reporter: i'm here at westchester university and people were here looking at a viewing party and everyone still seemed happy and some disappointed it wasn't completely dark. look at the ground. what you see on the shadow is very dark shadow and along the edge, say holding out a piece of paper, it is fuzzier along the edge. we were right on the edge of the eclipse today and why we didn't see the total darkout for the total eclipse that some experienced. take a lock at the video we have for you guys. this shows the entire nation. the path of totality, the areas that saw the total eclipse, that hit 14 states across the u.s. first total eclipse hitting right around 1:20 in oregon. the last hitting what w a total eclipse around 2:40. everything wrapped up right around 4:00 p.m. today, even for

us here. now, let's jump to the next graphic and going to explain for you guys what you are seeing here. for a total eclipse, you need a couple of things. first thing, that's the sun, the moon and the earth to all line up perfectly and takes quite sometime to happen. on top of that, you need something that's amazing. the moon is 400 times smaller than the sun and 400 times closer than the sun than the earth is and that's why that very small area the path of totality. that's the part of the shadow that's the umbra. for us, we're in the penumbra. today we saw 75% of the sun obscured by the moon. still pretty impressive. i have so ai really enjoyed it. people who were here earlier at westchester university said the same thing to me. back the you guys. >> excellent. great coverage out there. thank you. nbc 10's coverage of the

during the day tomorrow, it's just going to see the heat and humidity build up. remember, today, the temperature was blocked for a couple of hours by that eclipse so the temperature actually went down when it normally goes up during the day. so, tomorrow, with the extreme heat, and the humidity, this is from philadelphia southward. except for the beaches. which will see a sea breeze. 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. temperatures in the mid-90s. the high humidity makes it feel like 100 to 105. we have another first alert for different part of the area, these are for pennsylvania counties and this is 8:00 p.m. tuesday to 2:00 a.m. wednesday. by the time the line of thunderstorms gets into south jersey and delaware, it may have weakened so much that it's not severe. so damaging winds possible. a lot of lightning and some small hail. right now, temperatures are in the mid-80s. we have a little more sunshine, philadelphia now than we did an hour ago. a lot of sun in the lehigh valley that we have seen in the

day today. and that is helped push the temperatures up. and lehigh valley to get to 90 or a little bit above tomorrow and not into the dangerous levels. warnerville 79. white hall 85. bethlehem 84, as well as easton. like i said, all the places are going to be close to 90 or maybe a little bit above tomorrow. feels like temperature's 91 in wilmington. 90 in vineland. 87 in philadelphia. so we're certainly nowhere near the dangerous levels today. tomorrow, it is a different story. look at these feels like temperatures. 2:00, 4:00, getting close to 100. maybe in between it could hit the triple dpiigits there. not as high. that's why i don't have the first alert out for those counties. this is what we do with neighborhood weather. we break it down into the different areas of different

impanlgts. delaware, feels like temperature getting to 100 for several hours tomorrow. parts of south jersey getting near 100, as well. but the jersey shore, not getting there. not in that first alert. we have a couple of showers trying to get into berks county and near the poconos and that is weakening already. not moving very fast. we have more activity become out to the west. in ohio and even across the middle of the country. and that's associated with a cold front that's coming in. these are the showers for this evening. just kind of isolated. and not necessarily severe. but watch what happens during the day tomorrow. we start off with a sunshine, the heat, humidity builds. plus we have a cold front coming through. so, that could be some pretty strong thunderstorms and that is later at night. so most of the daytime hours we are talking about dry weather. and then, we really dry out. lots of sunshine as you can see.
