traffic. we are going to have law enforcement visible. it's the first coast to coast eclipse to traverse the us in 99 years and astronomy enthusiasts across the us are gearing up for the big event. the owner of this store in arizona says solar viewing glasses have been selling like crazy. we're going through maybe a hundred an hour it's going out pretty fast. his tip, be sure the ones you are buying are safe. it will allow only one thousand of one percent transmission. the eclipse will take place on monday, august 21 and will travel from west to east with folks here in south carolina getting the last glimpse. >> let's just hope we can -- people will be able to see it that day. i've seen one before in 1998. the day of the eclipse it was rni

cruz ship and they were scientists and they wanted to see it so we crewed the heck out of there to get to a place where we could find the sun mpt it will be so sad p if it's cloudy but it's been really nice here. and clouds are starting to come in tonight. fortunately we don't have any kind of lunar eclipse or anything like that but we are going to see a change in the pattern tomorrow and that means that you likely will have to bring an umbrella around if you're heading out tomorrow tonight. heavy rain and we're a little worried about that because we've had so much heavy rain already in the last several weeks. be aware of that if you have plans that will have you out and about friday night. these temperatures so nice again today. we pulled off another beautiful day. but our run of beautiful daisies go tok interrupted as we bring in a bit more unsettled weather, especially friday night and saturday. neither day a washout . temperatures are comfortable tonight, too. but

noticed. humidity is starting to come up. all of the dewpoints are in the the 50s. that meant nice cool air. now the due point creeping into the mid 60s and that gets kind of noticeable. as we increase the humidity we have a little bit of a trigger coming. it is this frontal boundary that you can see collecting some showers and thunderstorms in the chicago area. that will be getting closer to us tomorrow afternoon and evening and that's why we have the chance of those showers and storms developing. so the first thing that happens is a warm front comes through. we'll have clouds with that. we could have a spotty shower or two during the day, maybe even a rumble of thunder, but the bulk of activity holds offer later when the frontal boundary gets closer and for many areas that could be after dark tomorrow. during the afternoon if we even get a little bit of sunshine through the clouds we should be able to get up to 84-degrees, but again it will be more clouds than sun. with the humidity that means that any storms that develop might be capable of dropping some pretty heavy

9 a.m. we're zip tripping to culpeper. there could be a couple of spotty showers as mentioned but certainly nothing that we could describe as disruptive to your friday morning. we get to about 6:00 in the evening and while we still have generally cloudy sk ies we begin to see a few thunderstorms developing like they usually do out to the west and you might see some heavy rain as they develop. by eight, 10:00 we start to see them approaching the western suburbs and you can see our futurecast is trying to depict some pretty heavy rain with these thunderstorms as they come on through. so while no widespread severe is expecting, could you get a severe thunderstorm but mostly our thread will be the heavy rain. that goes away in the overnight hours and saturday we're still fairly cloudy. in the noon hour we could still have a few showers around. we have a broken line of showers and storms that come lieu in the afternoon. it's not really a washout, maybe a few more around 8:00 and then i think we

activity out of the forecast for sunday. it will feel more like august with our frontal boundary cross, but it looks like this front is going to head down to the front. so you redeem the second half of the weekend. about 835 on saturday with showers and storms scattered about. sunday looking dryer and also looking kind of warm at 87- degrees so a real nice summer sunday is ahead. if you're headed to the beaches this weekend. saturday a few showers at ocean city. otherwise not a terrible beach weekend and our water temperature about 73- degrees as we check out the ocean temperatures. so you know these first -- the next couple of days on the of seven day forecast are going to be a little bit unsettled much we kept the thunderstorm on sunday because there's a very slight chance that there could still be a couple of thunderstorms in the southern suburbs as the front moves to the south. monday look s dryer, too, there will be some clouds around, maybe a

the next wet looks like it's going to be tuesday and a temperature of 830. we warm up a little bit. we try to dry out a little bit on wednesday and thursday with temperatures back into the mid 830s. all of a sudden it does look a lot like august on our seven day forecast . back to you. the i max theater at the smithsonian's natural museum of history is slated to close. they're trying to convince the museum on change plans. kevin mccarthy with more . i met with the claimed i max film producer jonathan bark er of the national museum of national history with his latest film amazon is being shown in the i max theater. this is the prime location in the world for what we do which is make natural history and science film. an experience one of the most extraordinary adventures of all time. it's just the most wonderful and
