The confession obviously is a game changer for the investigators and the prosecutor here and presumably in the confession he will provide details they are trying to figure out forensically now and will fill in a lot of the holes and its going to allow him a process that is faster, he will tell them is there more than one spot the body is buried, where are they buried how did they kill him and they will have to put it together from the jig saw puzzle from the forensic they are doing and because its taking so long with the digging and excavation and him providing information presumably they are trusting the information he is providing is accurate that makes the forensic evidence recovery a lot easier.

It is a huge storm drain in desperate need of repair, lives and properties are at risk but who is going to pay for it . Investigative reporter chad pradelli brings us underneath norristown. This is completely rotted away. Reporter steel beams crowded and wood rotted and the concrete above sagging this is a storm drain running under the norristown auto body shop. I dont need to repeat myself that no one dies and no one is seriously hurt. Reporter attorney represents him who bought the business in 1978. This is the part that is caving in. Reporter the 67yearold says his shop is collapsing. Its cracking all the way around and this door, see. Norristown completely turned their back on the issue. I was ready to retire until the problem happened we had a buyer. Reporter under the property is part of the sawmill run watershed and a Flood Control program through the heart of downtown norristown and he went to the burrow in 2015 and officials wrote this letter stating each Property Owner is responsible for the portion of the channel that runs below their private property and came after pennsylvania Environmental Protection told them that it was a major safety hazard and should be addressed by the burrow immediately. I dont know how it can be a Property Owners responsibility since it doesnt necessarily service them the Property Owner. Reporter and they are not alone. Up arch street michael hoffmans parking lot has growing holes. We are hoping it doesnt swallow the car. Reporter declined repeated request for an on camera interview and released a statement emphasizing private Property Owners are responsible for repairs under their property but he says norristown passed this resolution in 1964 a green it was responsible for maintenance of the Flood Control project and just last month the dep told action news quote it is deps position that the burrow of norristown is responsible for the storm drain in question. This is a tragedy waiting to happen. Reporter he is trying to get the burrow to pay for repairs on the culvert and auto shop as the case slowly plays out in federal court the Business Owners can only watch their properties with the weary eye. I would liketostep to the plate that is their responsibility to take care of it. Reporter no one can tell the cost to repair the culvert but its money the Business Owners dont have, the attorney said they could apply for state and federal grants to repair it but have refused to do so, im chad pradelli channel six action news.

She is clearly touched by the support. Clearly accuweather forecast we had a tumultous day. Could do it tomorrow and settled down and sky six looking at uss new jersey on this warm humid night no storms now but this was certainly not the case earlier this evening, in fact, want to share this photo. Jimmy sent this to me. He took this from the jetty taking a look at the cape may lewis ferry what i like about it is you see four branches of the cloudtoground lightning and also see how it lights up not only the sky but also reflecting over the delaware bay and part of the reason why the storms are so intense is the fact that the atmosphere is just loaded with moisture. If you look at the dew points the dew point 72 philadelphia, 78 in dover, that is really a tropical air mass dew points do not get much higher than that and unfortunately if you are hoping for a change of the dew points tomorrow really wont be the case tomorrow is still oppressive humidity and not quite as warm 71 degrees and over the weekend notice the dew points will drop before they rise as we head into next week so we do get a break over the weekend but right now you step outside it still feels pretty warm out there currently feels like 80 philadelphia feels the same in wilmington millville a little cooler 74 feels like 78 degrees in cape may. Satellite and radar showing the storms that rolled through that did bring Severe Weather especially north and west of philadelphia all triggered from a cold front and the front is still up to our north. Wont be clearing the region until late tomorrow night so what this means another round of possibly severe storms so future tracker showing could get some wet weather in the morning, 8 00 in the morning showing some scattered showers around and looks like really the stronger storms should hold off until the afternoon by 3 30 some strong to severe storms continuing into friday if you have friday night plans take an umbrella and then it all clears on saturday so this is what to expect tomorrow, again like tonight not everyone will see the storms but those who do expect torrential downpours with the atmosphere loaded up with all that water vapor, ponding only roads possible some localized flooding dangerous lightning you hear the thunder get inseed immediately and also potential for powerful wind gusts and even a possibility for some small hail so if you are heading to the beach tomorrow keep your eyes of thunder thunderstorms late in the day and humid day and 76 on saturday you will be getting a land breeze 85 degrees mixture of sun and clouds and sunday should be beautiful 83 that ocean temperature is 64 so exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast we are out of the heat wave tomorrow at 87 degrees but oppressive humidity with some gusty thunderstorms a few rounds possible saturday a breath of fresh air warm but not that humid 87 and bump it up to 90 on sunday humidity returns on monday with a high of 90, 90 again on tuesday with scattered storms you see the theme here, wednesday bump it up to 92 and thursday hot and humid 93 with more storms possible so we get a little bit of a break over the weekend then heat wave number five moves in next week.
