well, not that kind of fresh. on the freshness of our chicken. but i can guarantee the freshness of our chicken because we go beyond what the usda requires... with extra inspections in american family owned farms, refrigerated trucks that deliver daily and everywhere in between. that's what it takes to bring your family a fresh tasting chicken. perdue. we believe in a better chicken.

>> went outside, got some exercise in yesterday around 1:30. it felt pretty good. 1:30. would feel it more. >> you probably would because the dewpoints are up high this morning. that means it's a bit more humid out there.

storm tracker 6 double scan shows you outside of cape may county right at the tip we're dry across the region. might be a sprinkle down there this morning and that's not going to last long. as we take a look outside we have sky 6 and there's center city and things are fairly nice out there right now. dewpoints a little bit higher but with the sun still down below the horizon it really doesn't feel all that bad. temperatures a little bit warmer today than it was this time yesterday. we're at 71 degrees in philadelphia. your dewpoint is up over 60 which is that threshold for humid air, so a little humid out there. and winds like yesterday are running on the calm side. satellite radar shows you that we do have some cloud cover, especially south of philadelphia and that's because of a system that's kind of falling apart and moving away from us, again just a couple of light sprinkles for the next hour or so down south but most of you aren't going to see that. generally speaking we are going to see clouds mixing with sun today and overall it's going to be kind of a sun and clouds partly sunny forecast. 67 degrees at 8:00 a.m. 74 degrees at 11:00 a.m.

82 degrees at 2:00 and 84 is going to be your high today at about 3 o'clock before we dip back down to 52 degrees at 5 o'clock this afternoon. high temperatures across the region with that sun and clouds mix a-bit humid out there and highs in the mid 80's through much of the northern suburbs down to the i-95 corridor a little bit cooler down by the water but still 80 degrees an bit more humid than it was yesterday. for the phillies tonight, partly cloudy skies. it does look like it's going to be a little bit muggy. there's a slight chance of a late day thunderstorm -- excuse me not tonight, that would be tomorrow. tonight you'll be find, partly cloudy a bit humid 79 for the first pitch and 72 degrees in the ninth inning so not a bad forecast for tonight but you'll probably want a cool drink for that higher humidity. tomorrow we're looking at another partly sunny and seasonably warm day. it's going to be humid a-high of 85 degrees. there is a front out to the west of us tomorrow that will encourage a southerly flow that will keep us on the sticky side. now, late tomorrow and tomorrow night in the northern and western suburbs we'll be

on the lookout for the possible shower or thunderstorm popping in ahead of that front. it's not necessarily going to make it into our region but it's something to watch out for. on thursday, this frontal boundary pops through the cold front approach much there is the chance of a shower or maybe a thunderstorm on thursday and then by friday we're probably still dealing with the last remnants of that system with perhaps a morning shower before we start to dry out. your seven-day from accuweather, sun mixing with clouds today, a bit more humid and a high of 84. tomorrow warm and humid, 85. if we see a shower or a thunderstorm, it's probably late in the day in the northern and western suburbs. can't guarantee it but keep your eyes out for it and then more clouds on thursday, a high of 80. at this point there is the chance of some showers at times during the day. hopefully it dries out in time for the eagles game at night but for now we are going to call for the potential of a shower. a little bit muggy otherwise and temperatures falling through the 70's during that game with the steelers and of course it's right here on 6abc. and then behind that, 80 degrees on friday, a couple of lingering showers but i

could see some sun coming back in the afternoon. and it still looks like things dry out, clear out, get comfortable for the weekend. we're now going the go with highs in the upper 70's both saturday and sunday, absolutely delightful weather for the second half of august. partly sunny skies and great weather for the phillies and the union sunday night, a big national game and looks like monday is also good. >> okay, like that. >> uh-huh. >> david, thanks. meanwhile a california woman who took a joyride in a police cruise are was caught after a high speed chase. the 22-year-old can be seen on surveillance video scoping out the video when she opens the door and places her belongings insides. the woman walks away and even speaks with an officer. awhile later you see her reappear in another outfit and then she jumps in the car. police went in pursuit and eventually caught up with her as she takes off there. authorities are looking into why the keys were left in the vehicle in the first place. new this morning, a 22-year-old fashion model who
