come. the signs warning everyone about this week's papal parking restrictions went up last week but as you can see, plenty of people are rolling the dice and leaving their vehicles in spaces that will remain off limits until next monday. tony farr says he's moving his car even though he thinks this is all a bit excessive. >> seems to be quite early, right. he doesn't arrive until the end of the week and we're already experiencing together and it's been a lot of inconvenience. >> reporter: these are only the initial phases. this map which you can find on 6abc.com revealed the full scope of the restrictions that will go he into effect over the next few days ahead of the pope's arrival on saturday. in the meantime, if you live within the restricted area, you have options. you can still purchase a 20-dollar placard like this one from the parking authority which allows you to keep parking along the curb for now but once thursday rolls around, you'll then have to move your car to one of six designated garages where it will have to remain through the weekend.

another option is competing for street parking spots in nonrestricted neighborhoods. kelly dick chico of fairmount opted for curtain number three. >> i had to go out to the suburbs where my parents live in willow grove. had to park my car there and take the regional rail back to be able to come back to the city and be able to move around. now i'm depending on cabs and uber and zip car. >> reporter: if you decide to call the city's bluff and you get towed, there is no fee he to get your car back. the bad news is you're subject to a $76 ticket for parking illegally. in the end though, parking authority officials say they really do not want to tow your car even if a tow truck is just about take your car away. >> as long as we haven't taken the car away, we will give the car back. we want everybody to comply with us and if we tow he zero cars we'll be very happy. >> reporter: all right, back out live, the next phase of the towing schedule kicks in

tomorrow night. if you're trying to navigate the roads in your car and you're still not aware, the inner and outer lanes of the ben franklin parkway are closed. you can try using 22nd as a cross street but you might want to simply avoid the area if you can. getting around this part of the city for the next few days is going to be very difficult. reporting live from spring garden, walter perez, channel6 "action news." rick. >> walter, thank you. the papal visit has officials outside of philadelphia preparing for an influx of people. in paoli chester county transit officials are expecting six times the normal amount of people on septa trains this weekend. so they're emphasizing drop-off points rather than park and ride plans similar to dropping someone off at the airport. >> hoping is that folks from east and westbound on route 30 will travel up north valley road and utilize paoli plaza. they'll all be directed. >> and pilgrims will be brought into waiting areas where they're ticketed, they'll be checked and boarded on the trains. officials said there will be

some parking available this weekend at a satellite lot but it will be on a very limited basis. >> pope francis on his second stop in cuba before he heads to the u.s. tomorrow. thousands of people lined the streets to greet the pontiff. [speaking foreign language] >> first time the pope has ever visited the city which is the capitol of the province where the castro brothers grew up. the pope celebrated mass urging the faithful to give of themselves and to be selfless. he also made a big reference to the religious restrictions in cuba. >> i know that the church in cuba works in difficult conditions to take everyone, even in the most remote places the word and the presence of christ. >> today happens to be the anniversary of pope francis' decision as a teenager to become a priest.

he urged the people in cuba to be willing to change and to be willing to dream. all of this coming as the u.s. decides how to proceed with america's economic embargo against cuba with president obama possibly allowing the un to condemn that embargo, a move that could end the 54-year old restriction. so, curious see how that all pans out as the pope makes his historic trip to cuba and comes to the u.s. tomorrow, sharrie. >> yeah, keeping our eye on that. alicia thank you. while the count down to the papal visit is on, preparations are also under way for the world meeting of families. the event kicks off tomorrow at 1 o'clock with the opening ceremonies at the pennsylvania convention center. registration opened this morning at 9:00 a.m. and pilgrims have been arriving in philadelphia all day long. "action news" reporter vernon odom is following that story for us. he'll have much more coming up in our next half hour. and before pope francis comes to philadelphia, he'll make stops in new york and washington, d.c.

and both local and federal officials are taking extra steps to make sure the pope's trip goes off without a hitch. new york city police have been preparing for worst case scenarios and the secret service has been running training drills in case anything goes wrong. both cities, though, are no strangers to a papal visit. it was just seven years ago that pope benedict xvi visited both new york and washington on a u.s. tour. he held public masses in both yankee stadium and national park. >> "action news" is tracking pope francis' entire u.s. journey from washington to new york to philadelphia. monica malpass and i will be reporting live from the nation's capitol starting tomorrow when the pope arrives. eva pilgrim and sarah bloomquist will be live in new york starting thursday and we'll have coverage on "action news" and 6abc.com. and be sure to tune into 6abc this weekends for all day full live coverage of the papal visit. that's this saturday and sunday. you can also follow all of the action online again at

6abc.com. >> now to the latest in the criminal case against pennsylvania attorney general kathleen kane. just hours ago, her law license was suspended by the state's highest court. now kane's ability to do her job is up in the air this afternoon. "action news" reporter david henry is live in the satellite center watching this story for us. david reporter: hi. she is facing those criminal charges and now has temporarily lost her license to practice law but the legal experts we've consulted with say nothing here legally prevents kathleen kane from continuing to hold the office of pennsylvania attorney general. kane's lawyer says the temporary lifting of her law license jumps the gun because she hasn't been convicted of any wrong do, only charged. kane is facing criminal charges of perjury and obstruction for allegedly leaking grand jury documents to the media. she has pleaded not guilty and bound to remain in office. the supreme court ruling says "this order should not be

construed as removing respondent from elected officers is that limited to the temporary suspension of her license to practice law." pennsylvania's constitution requires that the attorney general be a member of the bar. she has not been disbarred only suspended. the law professor says the supreme court has teed it up for state senate republicans who want kane out. he says with a suspended license they may be able to argue that kane is no longer competent to be attorney general and should be removed. that would take a two-thirds majority vote. kane's lawyer say all this is going on ahead of the game. they have issued a statement saying there is another side of the story the public has he never heard. when general kane is given the opportunity to be heard, the other side of the story will finally come out. we are confident that once that happens, general kane will be exonerated. and just moments ago we got another statement this one coming from kathleen kane

herselfly she says i continue to maintain my innocence and continue to keep fighting while serving out the rest of my term in office. her next court appearance is scheduled for october 14. so far no trial date has been set. live in the satellite center, david henry, channel6 "action news. rick. >> david, thank you. turning to sports now, both the eagles and their fans still reeling after yesterday's ugly loss against the cowboys. the birds had a lot to prove on the field at the linc but they walked away empty handed on their home opener. >> yeah, and many eagles faithful directed a lot of their anger at head coach chip kelly and today kelly explained himself and talked about what's next for the team. jeff skversky live at the novacare center with more on that for us. jeff. >> hey, jeff. >> reporter: hey, guys, pathetic embarrassing, those are just some of the words eagles coach chip kelly and his players have used to describe this ugly loss against the dallas cowboys. chip kelly, though, after

watching and grading the film today, this morning he feels like it's fixable. let's hope so 'cause this was ugly. the eagles offense just can't get anything running right now. demarco murray, the eagles star running back off to one of the worst starts in nfl history by a running back. how about just 11 total rushing yards in two games, this from the defending rushing champ and just like eagles fans, murray visibly frustrated last night at the linc. sam bradford's day doomed, too. bradford accounts for three turnovers including an interception in the end zone. bradford has as many turnovers as five other nfl teams combined. it's a brutal start by your zero and two eagles. >> i mean, i don't know how the players felt. i was embarrassed. and that's not the way we're supposed to play football and that's not what we're all about but we didn't -- we didn't play well yesterday and i was embarrassed on how we played yesterday. our message is we felt like we

he prepared well and played well in the preseason. we didn't play well in the first half against atlanta. we didn't play well at all against dallas. that team that played in the second half against atlanta is the team that needs to show up this weekend against the jets. >> reporter: they better or they're in big trouble. here's the bottom line. only 12 percent of teams that have started zero and two in the nfl have gone on to make the playoffs. the eagles have done it three times in their history and they are going to need to do it for a fourth if this season is going to be successful. we'll have much more coming up in sports at 5:30. we're live at team headquarters, jeff skversky, channel6 "action news." >> alall right, jeff thank you. time for a check of the accuweather forecast. >> let's do it. let's head outside to meteorologist melissa magee in for adam joseph today. an umbrella, melissa. >> yes, sharrie and rick we're tracking a couple spotty showers that are moving across the area. we'll show you satellite6 along with action raid today. it's mostly cloudy and there's some activity in philadelphia

we've got tractor-trailers filled with supplies and because of all those things on the parkway there's no traffic allowed on the parkway now in the inner or outer drives so the parkway is shut down in its entirety through sometime early next week and that means that surrounding streets like you can see the numbered streets here, local vine are grid locked. just a sea of taillights because people have to use the surrounding streets since they can't use the parkway. up around the art museum the kelly and mlk drivers are backed up headed into eakins oval because of the closures and delays are spilling back onto the vine street expressway which is extra heavy westbound this afternoon and we got word from penndot this afternoon that most of the ramps off of the vine street expressway are going to close now on thursday night. most of our other highway closures take effect on friday night at 10 o'clock including the vine itself, the main lanes as well as the schuylkill and the ben franklin bridge. city avenue is going to close at 10 o'clock saturday morning and then it won't be closed around the clock but it will be closed most of the day saturday and most of the day sunday. so, we'll be talking about all
