afternoon. wind chills only in the 20's despite that air temperature just above freezing. and then on super bowl sunday some brief snow at the onset north and west of philadelphia. and then it will switch to rain there but for philadelphia to the south it's mainly rain from start to finish, probably around a half an inch on average and we're talking about here on sunday into sunday night. the poconos will pick up two to 4 inches of snow before they mix a little bit late saturday night -- sunday afternoon to sunday evening. in the lehigh valley far northwestern suburbs a quick coating to an inch before it flips to rain and melts that coating to an inch and for the i-95 metro area south jersey and delaware maybe a couple of flakes late sunday morning into the early afternoon before that rain takes over. as we look at the accuweather 7-day forecast, 33 tomorrow. it is your dry day to get the errands done. cloudy wi taking over, 43 on sunday and then behind it temperatures drop,ew clouds blustery and cold and then clouds build ahead of the next system, a pretty active pattern, 41 on

tuesday. mild and rainy wednesday, 52 degrees. and then turning sharply colder behind that as well as we go back into the upper 30's on thursday and friday so rather wet roads and that's the way it's going to be. >> thank you adam t local member of the air force is back home tonight after being deployed overseas for six months. then he was able to surprise his two sons today at school. master sergeant joseph peloti was given huge hugs when he school in vineland. seven-year-old joseph jr. and six-year-old dominic didn't want to let go right there and as you can see the boys are eagles fans as well. just like their dad. >> it feels great. just being away from the kids is really the hardest part and just seeing them again couldn't ask for nothing more. >> perfect timing with the super bowl, hm. >> oh yeah, go eagles. >> he gets to watch the super bowl with his family sunday
