She used a pizza ordering app to secretly send a message to police. Heres how it went down. The womans boyfriend held her and her three kids hostage in a florida home. Apparently, she kept sharpening a large knife in front of them. So the woman used a pizza hut app. She placed an order and included two secret messages. The order comes through and edited her ticket. So on the bottom it said hostage help and on the top it said, get 911, help. I dont know if i would have thought of it. It was something she did so naturally. The boyfriend never knew about it until he saw us coming around the corner. And tonight, the womans boyfriend is in jail. The mother and her children are safe. Well much cooler day for us today. But if you liked the 80s they are coming back. 80degree temperatures will be returning as we go into your weekend. So thats great news. It looks dry as we go into mothers day. Ill show you that forecast too, in a minute. And a dry stretch of weather, really. Aside from that were watching the tropics. There is something brewing over the bahamas right off the east coast of florida. And that will ultimately change our wind direction over the weekend. And that may be giving us slightly cooler temperatures still in the 80s though. Heres a live look out at center city overcast skies, and were still continuing to see passing light showers. Nothing very heavy. But dont be surprised if you see one for the rest of the evening. 74 degrees right now in philadelphia. So certainly a much cooler day than yesterday. Now, as far as the pollen is concerned, today it is low. This is going to be the lowest for a while. So hopefully youre able to notice it wasnt as high today. Tomorrow, its going to jump up to a 10. 2. Look what happens friday saturday, sunday. That pollen shoots up there. If you need the allergy medication, you can plan on it for the next several days. Temperatures north and west through the Lehigh Valley in the mid60s. 70 Degrees Northeast philly 66 Atlantic City wildwood 69 in dover. Average high 71 degrees. Were actually a little closer to where we should be today for this time of the year. Few light showers around. Mainly to the north and west of i95. So right around hamilton township, 295 in mercer county. Moderate showers and light scattered showers through upper bucks county and moving into the Lehigh Valley around the philadelphia area. So, again, dont be surprised if you see some passing showers. And i also mentioned that area in the tropics were watching. Area of low pressure over the bahamas. It has pretty good circulation here its slow moving but does have the potential to increase in intensity, which would be our first named storm of the season which would be ana. Right now, its an area of disturbed weather. Heres what the models are predicting. And a lot of them have come together in agreement on this. So as we go through time here this area gets a better circulation, possibly becoming our first named storm of the season, maybe even moving into the carolinas, possibly south carolina. A lot of computer models are agreeing on that. Now, its not unusual to have a named storm before june 1st when Hurricane Season starts but this one may certainly be our first one. What itll be doing for us locally, though is pulling in an onshore wind. That would mean cooler winds moving in onshore. Dropping those weekend high temperatures for a bit but still in the 80s. Cooler winds coming in off the water. Water, 54 degrees. Along the shore saturday and sunday, you can expect it to be a little cooler. Inland temperatures will still be in the 80s but the farther inland you go the warmer it should be with the onshore flow because of that system to our south. For tonight, though mostly cloudy chance of early showers passing by 56 for the low in philadelphia 48 Degrees North and west. Then tomorrow mix of sun and clouds temperatures will be warmer right around 80 degrees. So a nice day tomorrow friday looks good too. Mid80s going into the weekend. We did drop the temperatures a bit because of that developing system to our south. But it still looks dry across the board. 82 trees saturday and sunday, and we stay dry starting next week.

The average american gets nearly seven hours of sleep per night. Thats an hour less than the eight recommended by sleep experts. And 40 of people reported getting less than four hours of restful sleep. Now, one possible reason more than half of those surveyed say they use those Electronic Devices, smartphones, tablets. And they use them in bed. The light from those devices can throw off your sleep rhythms. So heres how our area ranks, compared to other states pennsylvania came in 26th with people getting an average of 6. 7 hours of sleep. Just under half say they dont think they get enough sleep. And 53 use Electronic Devices in bed. Now, new jersey ranks 32nd. People there get slightly less sleep at 6. 6 hours. And more people use electronics in bed. Thats 63 . Delaware has the lowest ranking in this region at 41. The average sleep is 6. 6 hours per night and 71 of people use their phones tablets and other gadgets.

Local senators bob casey and pat toomey are part of the group that released that report. Also announced legislation that would require an investigation into all 56 regional officers. The 21st century Veterans Benefits delivery act would create a system that can withstand surges in disability claims. It would be designed to avoid generating another veterans disability claim backlog. The idea that they should come home and have to wait these unbelievably long periods of time to get a simple adjudication of a perfectly legitimate claim is outrageous and its unacceptable. Backlog at the philadelphia v. A. Is roughly 245 days. A recent report found extensive mismanagement at the facility including neglected male manipulation of dates to make old claims look new and alteration of quality reviews.

Montgomery county gop officials dropped support after the comments were discovered online. Deemed offensive to race and religion. The comments were linked to a facebook account under the name of scott misus. Some of them poked fun at minorities. The Republican Party said they asked him about the comments and he avoided answering. Sometimes not answering the question is answering the question. Thats how were taking it. That question was asked of him and there was a little bit of a dance that went on. And we take that as frankly, he did it. Nbc 10 reached out to the candidate on the phone and at his house. He did not return our request for comment. His name will still appear on the ballot because it is too late to remove him. All right.

Horace is a former federal agent at age 25. He also has National Security experience. Lets start right here. This is going to be huge in september. What kind of security presence should we expect in philly . Well this is going to be an event of monumental proportion. Nothing like the city of philadelphia has seen for quite some time. I think you can expect to see several things. One, the military will be integral in the planning and execution of the security plan. Three, therell be people brought in from all over the east coast, all over the region to help support this. 2 Million People in a public space presents challenges for Law Enforcement. We know this is the peoples pope, as we can see from that video. He will be very hands on with the public. He will mingle could be unpredictable. How much more difficult is it when theres that close interaction and what delphia Police Department is very experienced at handling parades, details, protests. This is a hands on pope. Hes made that very clear throughout his visits around the world. But the secret service the u. S. Department of state, the fbi, the atf, the u. S. Marshals all the federal Law Enforcement agencies will be brought in and mobilized to support this visit. Lets talk about the protest now. Last week of course saw the large crowds march through the streets of philadelphia. How would you say police handled that situation . Well the Philadelphia Police did an outstanding job. Now, keep in mind they had a day and a half to two days to prepare for it. Baltimore was taken totally off guard both at the mayors level and the police level. Philadelphia police is very experienced at handling large crowds. With that said, 2 Million People are a lot of people. And the Philadelphia Police their collaborative partners at the federal level, the military theyre working right now, and they will be working up until the time of the event to ensure that the pope comes in and out of philadelphia without incident. I know theyre hoping to anticipate every scenario possible, even sending officers to rome and to the vatican to fully prepare. Security effort matthew horace, thank you for joining us.

No single Financial Institution should have holding so expensive that the value would send the World Economy into crisis. The list would include bank of america, citigroup, Jpmorgan Chase and wells fargo. A cooler day for us with cloud cover, and our winds giving us cooler temperatures too. But the 80degree temperatures will be returning after about tomorrow. Well still be in the upper 70s. Dry as we go through your mothers day weekend. Anything you want to do this weekend, we have tweaked the weekend temperatures though because of something were watching in the tropics developing around the bahamas. That may be influencing our wind direction over the weekend. Now, for today, we only got to 77 degrees, so were close to 10 degrees cooler than yesterday. Average high 71. Tomorrow, well be in the upper 70s. But then by friday, we jump into the mid80s again, and over the weekend, we should be right around the low 80s. Temperatures north and west through the Lehigh Valley. Mid70s, philadelphia right now. 66 degrees in trenton, 74 wilmington, 73 millville, 69 in dover. So you certainly notice the cooler air today, but that is going to start to change as we go into the next couple of days. We still do have a few passing showers, these are on the lighter side across burlington county. Very light scattered showers in parts of bucks and Montgomery County, as well. Even around the philadelphia area, moving into parts of gloucester county. These are light, nothing heavy, and well continue to expect those as we go through the evening. Now we look over the bahamas, were seeing an area of low pressure. Its getting a little better organized, but it is fairly slow to develop. Its a slow mover, too. But models have been pretty strong in agreement that this is going to possibly develop into our first named storm of the season. Hurricane season doesnt start until june 1st. Its not unusual to have a named storm before the season starts. Heres what it looks like on future weather. There you see its slowly moving up toward the carolinas. The spin on this is expected to get better. Youll notice it looks a little bit more like a tropical storm. At that point, it would be named ana. Locally, we dont expect the rain from this. Looks like it should be hitting the carolinas. But it will be influencing our wind flow come this weekend. And onshore wind means cooler temperatures. Ocean water is 54 degrees right now. So the wind coming over the ocean. Thats going to give us cooler temperatures along the shore. And inland not as warm as we originally thought because of that system in the tropics. But the farther inland thats where youll find the warmer temperatures as we go across the weekend. Still expecting the 80s, though. Chance of early showers passing by. 56 for the low in philadelphia. 48 Degrees North and west.
