warriors pulled away in the fourth going up by as many as 20. can curry amazingly only had 11 points. the bench led the way. golden state takes game one, 104-89. now the cavs with even more reason for revenge. they'll have to sit with this loss a few days. game two sunday night 8 p.m. on 6abc. who did you say it was the cavs bench that was going to lead the way. >> you know what, i know sports. let me sit there and you sit here. just kidding. it was good game, though. >> i'll take your job. >> i bet you would. no thank you. thanks, jamie. a television news crew jumped into action when they saw a baby deer trapped in flood waters in pennsylvania. a photo journalist kerry teraso and ashley hard way from pittsburgh's "action news" core were in westemoreland county when they spotted the animal struggling. kerry went into the water grabbed the off and on and brought the animal to a state trooper who also had stopped to help.

>> time for the weekend forecast. meteorologist adam joseph, first weekend in june, could be better. >> not the best of weekends, not a washout but we have to watch for the possibility of some strong to severe storms on sunday as we take a look at double scan live radar it was a wet start to our friday this morning in many locations, some areas picking up close to a half inch to three-quarters

of an inch in chester county but as of right now the clouds really dominating the area but not tracking any rain presently. the humidity has come up despite that temperatures are much cooler than the last couple days. 75 philadelphia, 74 in wilmington. poconos with nascar in town 66 degrees and right along the shore temperatures there also only in the 60's. as we look at satellite and radar we have again a little bit of that cloud cover a couple scattered showers to the north and south of philadelphia. but as we look to the west, we have moisture coming in out of the gulf of mexico, low pressure near dallas. this one will overall fall apart. pieces of this will merge with the low pressure in the northern plains. this all slides to the east and that's what will bring the unsettled weather especially as we go into sunday. but for tonight, cloudy, muggy, areas of fog developing with that damp ground and also the higher humidity. 63 he in the suburbs, 66 degrees for center city. and as we look at the day planner for your saturday, again, tomorrow it is not a washout.

there will be some sun breaking through that cloud cover. responding those temperatures back into the low 80's. it is very muggy as well but there's also a chance of an isolated shower in many locations in afternoon but if you get hit by them they'll be relatively light and move on pretty quickly. then on sunday, we'll have a warm front drifting through so there will be one round of rain early in the morning on sunday. then the clouds take over through much of the day on sunday. there could be a few peeks of sun but that will tend to pop up some of these strong storms in the afternoon on sunday. they will be hit or miss and then with a cold front in the afternoon and evening, we could see a squall line developing with strong to severe storms late sunday afternoon into sunday evening around 7 o'clock in philadelphia. but if you're going to be at the shore these strong storms should hold off until the latter part of the evening and overnight hours of sunday. so, the risk with these storms, the highest potential will be the dangerous cloud to ground lightning, torrential downpours and really strong

winds and even a moderate chance for a some large hail or even an isolated tornado. so, if you're heading to the shore this weekend, again, most of the time it is dry. some peeks of sun tomorrow. 74. but clouds will dominate both days and then watch for some of those gusty storms late in the day on sunday of 76 degrees. the poconos dry tomorrow. it's probably one of the best locations to be to see some sun tomorrow at 76. and then we'll watch for those downpours through much of the day on sunday of 68. the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast, we're back into the 80's over the weekend. tomorrow an isolated shower with some peeks of sun. very humid on sunday with those strong to severe storms especially in the afternoon at 81 and then will bring a refreshing breeze as that front clears the coast on sunday night. so, monday it's 82, dropping humidity and then another strong front late tuesday with more possible strong to severe storms at 83 and then a big change behind that wednesday,

thursday, very low humidity, comfortable, highs in the mid 70's with a decent amount of sunshine and still looking pretty good on friday of 80 degrees. so, just be safe and if you have that, you know, 6abc news app, great thing to have for some of those strong to severe storms on sunday. >> absolutely. >> thank you and with rain in the forecast, stay with 6abc.com/weather all through the weekend. storm tracker6 live radar puts a million watts of forecasting power right there at your fingertips and be sure to follow our team of meteorologists on facebook and twitter for updates. >> well, if there's anything better than celebrating the end of the work week it may be celebrating it with a doughnut. today is national doughnut day. the salivation army decided to honor the women who served doughnuts to our miller to soldiers dug world war i. many stores and bakeries are giving away freebies. on at this dunkin' donuts in spring garden some of the eagles cheerleaders and mascot swoops stopped by to do some doughnut decorating. even a 6abc doughnut.

>> ♪ >> "action news." delaware valley's leading news program. with ducis rodgers, meteorologist cecily tynan, and jim gardner. >> ♪ >> this is the way it looks as they're draining a silo of grain so they can free a man who is trapped inside. it is friday night and the big story on "action news" tonight is happening right now on a farm in chesterfield township burlington county. "action news" reporter jeff chirico is lie o live on the sc. jeff, what is the story there? >> reporter: well, jim, you can see lined me rescue crews on the roof of this silo

working to free a 71-year-old man who fell into the grain around 2:00 p.m. we believe they may have just rescued him seconds before we came on air here at 6:00. now at one point he was up to his chest in grain. chopper6 was over the huge rescue operation using multiple ladder trucks from the chesterfield and surrounding areas. i spoke with a woman who identified herself as the man's wife and she tells me that he is conscious and that crews stabilized him in a cage to prevent him from slipping any further. but because of the extreme pressure against him, the grain needed to be drained before they could pull him out. now, his wife says the man's name is chris probasco. he's a 71-year-old who has been farming all his life. now rescue crews right now, if you come back live, you may be able to see the gentleman being wheeled into the ambulance behind him. it appears he might be right behind the truck here. the ambulance it looks like from a diffe
