The georgia congressman is in philadelphia today to receive the prestigious Liberty Medal as we take a look back at his humble beginnings. John robert lewis comes from a big family and born in 1940, one of 10 children. All of this used to be a field. We all had our chores that we had to perform. Johns chore was to feed the chickens. As a young boy lewis decided he wanted more than the work in the fields. Protesting his parents when they had one of his chickens for dinner. But the Civil Rights Movement unfolding the Young John Lewis was inspired. At age 16 he conducted his first formal protest at the whites only Public Library in troy alabama. The following year lewis wrote a letter to dr. Martin luther king jr. And dr. King wrote him back. Lewis embraced the philosophy of a Nonviolent Movement for change. He would be arrested time and time again for the cause. John lewis called it liberating. It showed him that being arrested for the right thing wasnt the end of your life. He would later share the stage with dr. Martin luther king for the march on washington, a march for jobs and freedom. We do not want our freedom gradually but we want to be free now. The following year the Civil Rights Act was signed into law ending discrimination in schools, work places and public facilities but there was more work to do. Blacks were still being denied the right to vote. John lewis would help organize a march from selma, alabama, to montgomery to demand fair voting rights. They made it only blocks to selmas Edmund Pettis bridge where they were pretty with resistance. John on his knees his arm raised in selfdefense as a state trooper delivered a skull cracking blow to his head. That day would become known as bloody sunday. Congress would later pass the voter rights act of 1965. The sill Rights Movement didnt just help black people. It helps mercury claim its legacy of democracy. Freedom isnt free and John Robert Lewis has undoubtedly paid the price to pave the way for others. Ly. Quite the story quite the man.

We got plenty in certain areas. As we take a look at storm tracker6 live double scan you can notice that we just have some lingering showers here or there. The brighter echoes are now off the coastline bringing in the heavy rain with it but as we take a look at the 12hour rainfall estimates, storm tracker6 live can also take a look back in time to see who got the majority of the rain or the jackpot of rain and you can see near cape may the tip there, near sunset beach, 4. 7inches of rainfall near mays landing and west of Atlantic City 2. 8inches, millville near 4inches, dover to fortescue over the bay about four and a half inches of rain early on today so some healthy amounts in southern areas and thats where we had some flood advisories. Temperaturewise 71 right now in millville, trenton, 74 allentown and reading, 72 in wilmington. So, the numbers are close to normal for this time of year but it is not feeling very falllike with that tropical humidity that remains intact along the east coast and thats what helps bring some of that very heavy rainfall. There was so much moisture sitting in the atmosphere that wrung itself out. Now that front is slowly falling app parter and working to the south and east and clouds lagging back towards williamsport and theres a second front north of chicago that is moving through but right now chicago, all things are clear and if you know anyone who is at the game and would like to know what the weather is going to be like for the game, the kickoff there will 78 degrees in chicago, partly cloudy, by the Fourth Quarter 74 degrees with a southwest wind four to 8 Miles Per Hour and again pretty clear, no weather worries.

Tomorrow well be watching that front to our north and west so were kind of between systems here. Brighter to the north and west, cloud he dee to the south and east at 84 degrees. The second front comes through tuesday night, opens its door to fresh High Pressure here on wednesday.

The exclusive accuweather 7day forecast tomorrow some improvement in the afternoon especially north and west with brighter skies. Sunny warm 86 on wednesday. The humidity starts to creep back in a little bit on thursday for the first day of autumn at 86. Very warm, very summerlike and muggy on friday. Upper 80s for highs. And then a transition day on saturday. Doesnt mean rain. It just means temperatures start to come back down. The humidity starts to drop in the afternoon. And finally feeling like fall on sunday with a high of just 72 degrees. Very crisp and beautiful and then on monday, seasonable temperatures at 74 degrees.
