nbc 10 first alert meteorologist glen "hurricane" schwartz has the details. >> some parts of the area did see sunshine earlier and a lot of clouds did move over the area and threatening-looking skies over the area and there is a solid cloud nass parts of burlington and ocean counties and not seeing much cloudiness now. you're going to see it. it's not a huge am is, but it does have scattered showers with it. generally on the lighter side on the poconos, lehigh valley and burks county, chester county and those showers are keeping the temperature down north and west and only 67 in pottstown and 68 in redding while it is 79 in philadelphia and northeast philly. 78 in mount holly. 79, atlantic city. we'll be seeing a pretty big contrast across the area today. so in philadelphia itself 80 doings at noon and north and west not even to 70 and the temperatures are starting to drop once a couple of showers start to come through. those are not really heavy showers and we're talking about heavy rain for overnight. the timing on that is coming up with the seven-day in a few minutes. >>> violence

nbc 10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz is here. it will be warmer than it was over the weekend. >> it will be warmer and a bit more humid, but it's going to get a lot more comfortable after today. phillies are home tonight and it's going to be a little bit on the hot side, but otherwise you'll have some great weather for these games coming up this week. we have a few clouds that will move through and even more back to the west, but there's certainly nothing in the way of rain, at least not at this point. the futurecast showing things are quiet for at least a couple of hours and we could get isolated showers developing later this afternoon especially to the north and west as a front approaches. you can see it's not widespread. it's not especially heavy and not expected to be severe, but this is the one day of the week when we do have at least have some decent chance for some rain. it's already up to 81 degrees and it is warming up pretty nicely and in the 70s and the north and west, and it feels like same temperature, 81 in philadel

nbc10 first alert meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz is here with the forecast. tell us more. >> we're in a fairly long lull and there's nothing on radar now, but the phillies are back home tonight and that's an area that has the potential for severe storms later today and into the evening. that's why we have the first alert out for that. there is the potential for some severe storms with damaging winds and maybe even a tornado or reports of large hail in parts of the area. the relative severe threat is relatively low for the flooding, but pretty high for lightning and high winds and a good bit higher than normal for hail, for example. that highest risk is for much of delaware and southern new jersey. the farther north and west you go, the lower the risk of any kind of storms, let alone severe storms. you can see the lull now is just nothing on the radar, but the future weather computers are suggesting we do get some buildups. later this afternoon, after 2:00, 3:00 for the most part. some of them very heavy and generally farther south. there's one approaching the

let's check in with nbc 10 chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz, any relief in sight? >> if you want immediate relief, one of the places to go is to the beach. we'll have sea breezes over the next couple of days like we did over the weekend. here's cape may from lafayette and it is another beautiful day at the beaches. now inland, it's a different story. we've got temperatures into the 90s over the weekend, but the humidity wasn't all that high. today we're starting more humidity and so that 94 today is going to feel more like 98 and it will still feel considerably hotter than yesterday and by wednesday, temperatures may stay below 90 degrees. an air quality alert for much of the area today especially due to the ground level ozone making it unhealthy for sensitive people with respiratory problems, children and the elderly tend to be the most vulnerable there and as we go through the rest of the day, these temperatures that are in the mid-80s now start to go up and by early this afternoon we're going into the 90s and specifically getting close to the mid-90s and feeling

nbc 10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz is here. glenn? >> the track has certainly shifted from what it was doing yesterday or expected to do by many computer models and we were telling you that the key was whether it was going to track south of puerto rico or not and it certainly has. that has continued to the west and now it's tracking a little south of the dominican republic. 50 mile an hour max winds, west at 18. the center of it is still on the left side, it is still unbalanced, it is still disorganized. but there is still plenty of rain with this thing. puerto rico almost getting out of the rain as the dominican republic is getting into the rain. now, what is going on here? well, in order to create a hurricane, you need warm ocean water. that 80 degrees or hotter, that helps provide the energy. the winds start to come together, the air rises, evaporation from the warm water, that helps the storm strengthen. but once it hits an island, like some of these ones in the caribbean, dominican republic has 10,000 foot peaks, the storm's cut

nbc 10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz is tracking the storms for us and joins us now. glenn? >> some places had a lot of rain for a lot of hours and others have yet to see a drop. but there has been some rain in the philadelphia area. there will continue to be more threats overnight. that's why a flash flood watch is in effect for much of the area until 9:00 tomorrow morning. we think most of the rain will be over several hours before that time. it's sure not over now. you can see a large area of rain. the heaviest continues to be to the west of the philadelphia area. we have some really heavy rain coming into berks county, the western portion of berks just west of reading. this is an area that's already had probably more than two inches of rain in some spots so there could be flooding in that area. another batch just west of allentown right along i-78. this is moderate to heavy. it's headed up toward the pocono mountains. as you can see, there's more back to the west. some big storms in northeastern maryland and even bigger ones farther to the west. those are

let's get right to nbc10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz. what's the timing on this, glenn? >> much will be occurring this afternoon and especially overnight tonight. we have a lot of clouds around here, helping to keep the temperature down. we don't have a lot on radar right now. some small, light showers scattered around the area. it is an indication the atmosphere is very moist but more activity in central pennsylvania. that is the main area that's going to be affecting us. the future cast, as we go throughout afternoon, again, you can see these scattered showers but some of the heavier activity is back to the west. there we are about 2:00, 3:00, some areas are getting heavy showers, some thunderstorms. so much moisture within the atmosphere that could be, a lot will come in throughout the night tonight. the temperature has climbed in some areas. 88 in philadelphia, so we may have one more day to sneak in the heat wave. it's in the low 80s to the noirt and west. it feels like 92 in philadelphia. the humidity is very high. and it is muggy

let's bring in nbc 10 first alert chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz. >> i know you would say cape may is one of the best places locally to try to cool off if you do have to. >> yeah. cape may was right around ten degrees cooler than what we were like in philadelphia today. we have hit 90 degrees for the seventh day in a row. 92 degrees right now, upper 80s to the north and west near 90 central delaware and parts of south jersey. but the humidity has not gone up that much so the feels-like temperature right around the same as the air temperature. that humidity will be changing as we go into tonight and tomorrow. you can see we have had many days, started last tuesday, at 93 degrees. so far we are 92 and tomorrow yeah, we may do it again. we have a few buildups of the clouds to the north and west just one or two light showers up there, but we do have more showers in the forecast and also the end to this heat wave. i will tell you when with the seven-day. >>> heavy smoke and flames in old city this afternoon. sky force 10 was above firefighters on the roof of a building on t

we get the answer from nbc10 first alert meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz. glenn? >> yeah, tracy, now that we've had a front come through and the less humid air is coming in, it's going to hang around quite a while. probably for the rest of the week at least. not a whole lot of wind out there right now, but we do see a lot of sunshine. one exception is farther to the south, southern delaware we have some clouds and a couple showers headed in that direction. sussex county, delaware, maybe the southern portion of kent county could see a little shower. it's mainly dry as the westerly winds come in, the humidity is very low. the temperature, well, it's still above average for this time of the day, at this time of the year. most of the area. it's 83 in philadelphia. the average high is 84. we're going to go well past that. it's in the 70s to the north and west. and eastern a little warmer toward wildwood. so, as we go through the day today, we'll be finding temperatures going into the upper 80s, but the humidity will be low, so it's still going to be relatively comforta

and nbc10 chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz was showing us those models. you say it's not a given it will even hit florida at this point, right? >> at least not hit directly. i think it will affect florida in one way or another. mainly in the form of heavy rain. i think that will be the legacy of erika. it will be rainfall and flooding as a result of that rainfall rather than strong winds. the wind now, maximum, 50-mile-an-hour and moving west-northwest at 18. the pressure has not dropped. when the pressure drops, the storm has intensified. that's one piece of evidence. it's also in balance. you saw all the clouds are on the right side. one of the reasons it won't strengthen for a while is it's going over mountainous countries. they're small islands but they have big mountains. especially over the dominican republic. so this storm moves right in. the hurricane needs warm water. flat, no direction. here's the latest radar. again, because everything's on the right side, nothing has hit the dominican republic, but as it moves, it will drag all that rain over

a catastrophe caused by the very agency charged with keeping gadi schwartz, nbc news, los angeles. >>> it will be one year tomorrow since the shooting death of michael brown by a police officer in ferguson, missouri. today brown's father was among about 200 people who took part in a memorial march. the killing led to rioting and national debate over race and police conduct. which brings us to texas where authorities say they are investigating the police shooting death of a 19-year-old man named christian taylor. nbc's mark potter has that story. >> reporter: police say they responded to a burglary report at this car dealership in arlington, texas, just outside dallas early friday morning. >> suspect is is still inside on the property. 14, can they give us any description on what type of vehicle he might be called in. >> he broke into possibly a gray-colored ford mustang. >> reporter: the arlington police department says an suv broke through the dealership front gate, drove through the glass doors of the showroom and a report of someone damaging vehicles on the lot. >> we got shots fir

let's get the latest from nbc10 chief meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz. >> yeah, as you look at that storm and look at the symbol for the tropical storm, you think, well, it's in the wrong place. they put the symbol in the wrong spot. obviously, the storm is centered in the middle of that activity. that's not the case here. we have a long way to go before we see that storm getting any kind of threat to the united states. it is definitely going in the general recollection of puerto rico. eventually it will be tracking toward the dominican republic and haiti. and then the bahamas. it has a long way to go before it gets anywhere near the state of florida. there are plenty of mountains in the way, too. the latest computer models show pretty much agreement of it coming over the bahamas, the fact that it's disorganized now makes this a little questionable because we're seeing the storms generally tracking a little more to the left of what we expect. this happens time after time after time. if it tracks a little to the left, that means part goes over over dominican republic, partly
