Dscc is responsible for the content of this advertising. Philadelphia police are looking for the man who broke into a popular old city restaurant and stole from an employee. They gave us video from august 31st inside the continental in Market Street. It shows the man walking in and taking an employees peacecolor the purse and walk out. Police say it had credit cards, id, keys and a cell phone inside. The man also took 80 off a table. That money was just laying there. Police want anyone who can identify this man to please call them. Police are also on the hunt for the two men who robbed three people on the street, then shot one of them in north philadelphia. Investigators say these surveillance pictures show the suspects on september 3rd, the day of the crime. Police say they pointed the gun at the group at 18th and susquehanna and took their money and phones. When they ran away, the victims chased after them. One suspect pistolwhipped one of the victims, then shot him in the leg. That victim was taken to the hospital but is okay. In florida, they are spraying from coast to coast an allout war to combat the zika virus. While most people are doing what they can to avoid florida mosquitoes, congressman david jolly brought a container of them from his state, 100 mosquitoes to the house floor today, to express the urgency. Now, while the mosquitoes in that container are zikafree, he asked lawmakers to imagine living in fear of every single mosquito bite. He condemned congress for failing to pass legislation providing 1. 1 billion to help fight the virus. The World Health Organization has called zika a Global Public Health Emergency and the cdc says its almost out of money. But right now, a funding bill which has been approved by the house, is still stalled in the senate. It failed again for a third time with democrats blocking it in dispute over restrictions on planned parenthood. This is the reason for the urgency. This is the reason for the fear. My message to both parties and both chambers, for this month, its simple and straightforward, zika is not a game. In fact, seven new cases were just transmitted in miami and at fort brag, five soldiers are now being treated for the virus as well. Experts agree that funding is critical especially for expectant mothers, but, again, sharrie, that funding still stalling. Yeah. The urgency is there somehow. Alicia, thank you.

And with that land breeze, once again, on social media, many feeks telling me that the horse flies are horrible at the shore much like yesterday. As we look at satellite and radar, theres that spin. Hermine is finally pushing off to the east and will move away. You can see a decent amount of dry air in play for our area, and then we have some thunderstorms to the north and west, northern and central parts of pennsylvania along the boundly that could clip for our Western Areas a little later this evening, between 7 00 and 9 00 if you live in western chester county, northern new castle county, berks county or even the Lehigh Valley, you could get a quick downpour or a thunderstorm. But philadelphia areas to the east, is dry, they sink to the south here, a little later tonight, about 12 30 in the morning, well just have some clouds hanging around.

Again, with a lack of a sea breeze, and as we get friday, its a little better. You knock off a couple of degrees. Feeling like 98 in the city of philadelphia. 98 at the shore as well. So brutal no matter where we are the next two days. And then these numbers jump again at the beginning of the weekend.

Youre going to feel old by the time you get through this dre delay on the northbound side. Through this point at penns landing. Luck i had, they have just gotten the accident pushed off to the left shoulder, had them blocking the two left lanes for a while. So it is still really a slow go go. Just off 95 in port richmond, watch out for a crash at caster and richmond this afternoon by Timothy Wilson and son auto. And theres one in burholme near oxford avenue by mr. Sushi. Were watching a crash close to st. Joes along city avenue giving us restrictions by 59th g isledigit speeds are resulting. You really want to sti away from site avenue at this point, maybe stay over on bowman avenue or on the other side on 57th street and overbrook avenue and expect extra traffic detouring through the neighborhoods because of the city avenue blockage this afternoon. Couple accidents in bucks county and feasterville. Theres one along street road at old lincoln highway by the sts tire and watch out for a crash along route 13, bristol pike near stuart avenue. And tinicum township, downed wires blocking geigel hill road. Clay rigs road can get you around that. And in immediate why, its dining under the stars again tonight so state treat is going to close and the 101 trolley wont run. Its already not running up near drexel hill because of some overhead wire problems. But well check it again, brian and sharrie, coming up in the 5 00 hour.

Meteorologist adam joseph is coming up with that exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast next. All right, meteorologist adam joseph joining us. We are truly about to experience some very dangerous heat. Yeah, especially for this time of year. Youre talking about maybe hit organize breaking records for three consecutive days in a row for parts of our area here and kids being back in school, thats another kind of a you know, bad note to yeah. Temperatures this warm this late as we take a look at the action cam which was down at franklin square. You can see the carousel going round and round and a few folks on there. And you want to do something to create some kind of breeze over the next few days or if you know someone who still has their pool open, maybe give them a call, as we take a look at stormtracker 6 live double scan, its quiet across much of the area. There were some showers that still were hitting parts of Long Beach Island because of hermine, but mote of that is off the coast and were tracking a few downpours and storms in pennsylvania that may scrape areas like reading, lancaster, and west of wilmington here this evening. But most of us stay dry. Still 89 degrees last three hours consecutively in philadelphia, but were at 90 in reading, 92 in wilmington, 86 in millville. Lower 80s at the shore. Little bit of a sea breeze now trying to come in, but these numbers were a little cooler than inland because of the clouds spinning around hermine, but as you can see, hermine is now beginning to push back to the north and east, will move awaying, improving cons at the conditions at short. Dry here we got sinking air over our area with the void of clouds and then rising at the front with a thunderstorms now working through the central part of pennsylvania. So for tonight, its warm, its humid. There could be a stray downpour or thunderstorm for our Western Areas this evening. 66 in the suburbs, 73 for center city. And the september heat is on. The heat pump will be this musclemaker of High Pressure to the south cranking those southwesterly winds in here for thursday, friday, and saturday. Air temperatures in the mid90s but that doesnt tell the whole story because it will be hazy and it will be tropically humid. In fact, as we take a look at some numbers here near that record territory for philadelphia, going record tying tomorrow at 96 degrees, the old record, 1939. Record tying on friday of 94 degrees. That record was set way back in 1884. So we havent had a temperature this hot on that day in well over 100 years. And then as we get into saturday, pretty close to the record of 97 degrees set back in 1983. The shore tomorrow, a low risk for rip currents, the first timetha has happened in well over a week. In new jersey, 86 degrees. 90 on the delaware beaches. A calm surf, sunshine and just a few clouds and a sea breeze. So finally, a nice day to hit the sand. The exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast 96, like i said, tomorrow, with a record heat. 94, friday. As we get into saturday, it is a steam bath here. 96 feeling over 100 degrees. And an early shower on sunday morning, drop in humidity, returning sun in the afternoon. Looking good here for the eagles, 84 degrees for the kickoff. 88 by the fourth quarter. So youll notice a big difference as you progress through the day on sunday. And then High Pressure settles in monday and tuesday, walltowall sunshine, low humidity, highs in the low and mid80s. And then it turns warmer again. Next wednesday closing in on 90 degrees. These numbers over the next few days, were looking at six or so degrees above normal for this time of year. This is the temperature never mind the heat index. Which is going to be over 100. Adam, thanks. Whats the deal to keeping your newborn safe . Coming up. For senate, Katie Mcginty or pat toomey .
