Agency that investigates Police Misconducts cases just released 300 video clips today of Police Related incidents, some of which are pretty hard to watch. The independent Police Review authority says the recordings and Police Reports that go along with them are related to 101 incidents in the city of chicago. Though officials note they dont necessarily give a full picture of what happened, releasing records like these are pretty unprecedented. The city has struggled with so many questions about policing and about police accountability, it has been clear that we all agree that theres a lack of trust and that increased transparency is essential to rebuilding that trust. Now, the city of chicago and its Police Department took a lot of heat last year for waiting more than a year to release the dashcam video showing Jason Van Dyk a white Police Officer fatally shooting Laquan Mcdonald a black 17yearold there 16 times.

So, the weekend not the best but not a washout, either. As we look at sky6 live, the Commodore Barry bridge you see a couple of peaks of blue here trying to pop with that very thick cloud cover, very humid as well with temperatures overall in the 70s. Right now 73 in allentown, 74 wilmington. Philadelphia 73 in dover upper 60s to near 70 at the shore with that wind coming in off of the water out of the east and again, no 80s like the last couple of days. As we look at satellite and radar, the morning rain passed along. The clouds stuck around. They were stubborn through the entire day. A few sprinkles to the north and west will be passing through an couple of communities but overall this evening it will be dry and we await the next system which is out in the Northern Plains. Ski in allentown for tonight, 64 reading, 65 wilmington, 64 in millville. Cloudy and muggy. Also because of the increased humidity there will be some areas of fog developing with that damp ground from this mornings rain and as we look at future tracker at 8 oclock tomorrow morning, again, clouds still dominating the region for your saturday morning. Saturday afternoon at 4 30 well start to see some hints of sun trying to develop but as you can see clouds around and there could be a scattered shower or two in any location during tomorrow afternoon but overall it is a dry saturday. Then on sunday morning, a warm front will be approaching. Well start with rain on sunday morning. Clouds really dominate much of sunday afternoon and as we take a look at sunday evening you could see the bright colors here on future tracker. That is a cold front that will mean some big business as it passes through here late sunday afternoon into sunday evening. So, we are looking at a possibility of some strong, if not many severe thunderstorms here late on sunday. Winds could gust over 60 miles an hour. That is the main threat. Downpours with up to 2inches of rain likely which could cause some localized flooding. So, as we take a look at the different areas for the weekend kickoff on your saturday at the shore, some sun but a lot of clouds, even a shower in the afternoon at 74 degrees. The city 84 degrees, humid with an isolated shower in the afternoon with some pops of sun and then a little brighter up in the poconos and really not much in the way of a chance of a shower so thats the best location for the weekend to start off in the poconos at 76 degrees and and as we look at that four day at 4 00 forecast tomorrow clouds, some sun, a scattered shower at 84. We do have sunday highlighted just because of the possibility of strong to severe storms especially in the afternoon of 81 degrees. It will bring a refreshing breeze behind that system monday of 82 with bright sun. And then more strong storms are possible with another front tuesday afternoon at 83. That will bring a big change come wednesday and thursday. Well talk more about that in the seven day in the next half hour. All right. Lots to talk about. Adam thanks very much.

And finally it has the makings of a movie script and it starts with a man finding a message in a bottle on an uninhabited island in the British West Indies a message that was penned by a man from philadelphia. This is Clint Buffington he runs a blog called message in a bottle hunter. Appropriate. He says back on may 17th he found this message and inn a gatorade bottle and a year and a day after a man named ray here in philly wrote it. But wait. How does he even know that. The paper p is completely blank. What is he seeing on here, right . Well, buffering ton somehow deciphered this nearly invisible i mean completely invisible writing somehow. This is his job. Hes the message in a bottle hunter. So, ray from philly was on a carnival cruise. He left a number buffington called, no answer. So, ray, if youre watching, your message in a bottle has been received although i have to tell you clint does say the number was a little fuzzy so hes pretty sure he got it right. But as you can see, there was kind of nothing there. So, he wasnt working with a lot. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Good man. I need to know more about what it says. Yeah, lets hope we get some more information from this. Ray, give us a call. Ray from fill i like that. Alicia thank i was. Lets get another check of the roads right now. Matt standing by with the update on a friday. I would like to find a jean flee in a bottle and one of my three wishes you get three wishes. Well then my wish was going to be easier friday afternoons on the roadways because it is really tough sometimes to get home on a friday and thats the case this afternoon especially if youre taking the eastbound side of the pennsylvania turnpike. It is a crawl. Barely moving between willow grove and bensalem. Thats because on the off ramp from the eastbound side to bensalem a truck flipped over a couple hours ago so just one of the two lanes is getting by. Sounds like theyre trying to get it pushed off to the side. Then theyre going to come back this evening probably around 7 30 and remove it and at that time were hearing rumblings there they may close the main lanes of the turnpike later on this evening around 7 30 so stay tuned on that. For now its just a colossal jam. Stick with street road or county line as alternates. Camera time in University City and its friday afternoon on the schuylkill so of course its busy by south street in both directions. In chester county, a couple of accidents to watch out for. Ones in upper oxford along baltimore pike. Another along state road at avondale road. A crash in hainesport Burlington County this afternoon along creek road at marne highway. Still remnants of that gas leak over here in cherry hill along 70 eastbound at Cooper Landing road. One of the left turn lanes is blocked but otherwise things are reopened so progress there. Progress with this crash on 295 southbound past 42. Its off to the side but still a lot of speeds in the teens and 73 is closed in winslow township because of a crash. Stick with 30 to get around that. Well check it again, brian and sharrie, in the 5 oclock hour. All right, thank you my friend. Meteorologist adam joseph is coming up with that exclusive accuweather 7day forecast. All right. Its friday. Time to celebrate the arrival of the weekend even if its not the best weekend.
