We are on the search for silver linings, we try to fine the positives in a lost season. As Jeff Skversky reports look no further than wentz. Carson wentz is learning on the fly ever since Doug Peterson threw him into the starting quarterback job early in the season. Wentz is proving himself the first rookie quarterback in nfl history to throw over 300 yards in back to back games. Its coming and whether the execution or performance is there or not. I felt that i have gotten better mentally and more comfortable every week. Even though the playoffs are all but out of the question, the eagles want to finish strong so they have something to feel good about into next year. One of things wentz wantses to work is developing the relationship with his receivers. We want to go out and have big games and 100 yard games. We have the guy that is suppose to be here for the quarterback for the long run im excited about that. In the last three weeks well hammer on and you try to build the comradery and chemistry with every guy. I am happy to have a quarterback to build the trust and chemistry for a long period of time. There were five different starting quarterbacks since 2013. Jeff skversky channel 6 action news. If anyone knows what wentz is going through, its the quarterback on the other side. Joe flacco, the similarities dont end there. Flacco played at delaware a small school and wentz played at north dakota state and he admits he is keeping tabs on his counterpart.

After the snow begins after midnight it pulls up a lot of very warm air and a quick transition to rain across south jersey and delaware by 6 00 in the morning, still snow in philadelphia but then all that warm air surges up from the south and by 11 00 it changed over to rain across our entire viewing area and still a bit of mixing across the poconos. So how much snow do we expect before the change ore to rain. South jersey and delaware nothing to a coating that will get wash add way immediately. The i95 corridor wilmington trenton about an inch and the poconos 5 inches and the transition will take longer across the Lehigh Valley and the poconos. Probably into the afternoon. The big picture of the weekend showing first we have the warm front saturday morning that brings us snow, sleet changing over to ice all to rain by midday. Saturday afternoon to saturday night a lull and damp and the problem with that the areas with the deeper snow the Lehigh Valley and poconos could have dense fog and sun morning ahead of the cold front temperatures up near 60 and rain develops and we could get a soaking rain on sunday before temperatures crash in the afternoon. The exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast tomorrow its cold and diminishing winds and 128 degrees, the snow is moving in after midnight tomorrow and saturday snow changing over to ice and then rain by midday, and 48 degrees and sunday 60 with rain and the rain moves through late in the afternoon and temperatures dropping into the 30s by evening and overnight low down to 27 degrees, monday we dry out and brisk and cold and 34 degrees, tuesday chilly with sun and 38 and how ironic is this, winter begins officially on wednesday, it gets milder 42 degrees and rain possible on thursday, 46 looks like a surge of mild air likely lasting through christmas so chances of a White Christmas slim to none this year.
