for example the better chance you have of seeing a little more sun and we might even be a little milder up north. down south it will be cloudy and damp and maybe a little cooler. and then friday that system's gone and we get breezy and warmer with a high of 78. for the holiday weekend sunny and nice on saturday, a high of 71. if you're headed to the shore probably stuck in the middle 60's. and then sunday partly sunny and 78 at the shore probably low 70's upper 60's. and then on monday, memorial day, 82 degrees a little more humid, clouds, some sunny breaks and a spotty shower or a thunderstorm possible on memorial day. it does not look like a washout but it's a great day to have that storm tracker six app loaded onto your smartphonely i use it all the time on days like that. >> we all do. great stuff. thanks, david. 6:11. following a developing story a cruise ship temporarily loses control with thousands of people on board. >> persistence pays off for a south jersey woman who just can't seem to snap that perfect selfie with the president. how it worked out. karen. >> live in south philadelphia looking at the schuylkill at passyunk. we've got problems up ahead.
