Still pretty warm. We have 75 degrees in trenton as well as millville. 77 still in reading. Upper 60s in the pocono mountains. And the reason being, those winds out of the south out ahead of this slowmoving system right now producing some rainfall from the great lakes all the way to sections of the gulf coast that. System will slowly progress toward our area but not tonight. Its going to be dry if youre stepping outdoors. Tomorrow morning, were looking at some patchy fog across the area. Most of us dry. But watch the clock as we move toward the afternoon, that system gets closer. So zooming in a little closer here by 1 00 p. M. , were watching some sprinkles perhaps across the area out ahead of the mainline of showers and storms that will be arriving during the afternoon commute as we take look at the clock by 5 00 p. M. Moving toward the pocono mountains the lehigh valley. And wednesday night, were socked in with the wet weather, the clouds as well as some showers even the threat for some gusty thunderstorms. By thursday morning, were still looking at the clouds and rainfall across the area. But the system will be moving out by midday on thursday. Most of the heavy rain by 10 00 oclock will be east of philadelphia down the shore still looking at some of the wet concerns. Continuing to roll that clock, you can see were looking at on average one to 1. 5inches of rainfall out of this system before all is said and done. So the bottom line patchy fog tonight, lows in the 60s. High temperatures on wednesday near 80 degrees with those gusty showers and storms. And then all of its out of here by midday on thursday. So the tropics still heating up. We have hurricane gonzalo, 115 Miles Per Hour storm. It will be moving toward bermuda by the upcoming weekend. That seven day forecast showing you 80 tomorrow. High temperatures in the 70s. Low 70s on thursday and once again most of the rainfall wednesday evening overnight into the first part of the day on thursday. Still pretty mild though friday. 71 degrees. The first part of the weekend 67. But a chilly change by sunday. A high of only 60 degrees in the city. Likely 50s once you move north and west. Staying below average monday, 61. Only 59 for the high on tuesday. So enjoy upper 70s and 80s for at least 24 more hours. All right. I will. I know that. Thank you, scott. Thank you. Happy for you, iain. Thank you howard there. Im about to do something very different. Ah. A rare occurrence but my first story in sports concerns your philadelphia sixers. What . Theyre first. You may remember the owner josh harris speaking at Training Camp 11 days ago. Well, let me refresh your memo memory. This is not going to be a mundane season. Its not business as usual. This is going to be Michael Carter william streaking down the stealing the ball streaking down the court for noel nerlins blocking shots. Youll have a fun Exciting Team to watch. All right. So here we have josh harris telling to us watch Michael Carter williams as the player to come and see. Not so fast. Mcw had surgery on torn labrum in may. Sixers told us he would be out two to four months. But now the truth comes out. I had reported here on fox he would not be ready for the opening of the season on october 29th. Yesterday mcw told the media he was always told it would be a six to nine month rehab time. Not the two to four months that the sixers told us. But they were not honest with andrew bynum either and his injury. Its all about selling tickets for players that wont be playing. And heres another little sixers nugget. I have been told that the gm sam hinkie asked josh harris for a nineyear contract. Said it would take that long to win a championship. Luckily he didnt get it. All right. So no eagles this week. But cant get enough of chip kelly. Yesterday when the media had talked about the poor play this season of the defensive backs Cary Williams and bradley fletcher, chip always has a come back. I think a lot of times you guys are wrong. laughter . Seriously. Thats what i really think. So when we start listening to people outside of here, well be in trouble. We would be wrong. I think those guys played really really well. All right. You got to do that, right. First game, this is a big play. It help the eagles beat jackso jacksonville Darrin Sproles 49yard touchdown the eagles won it 3417. In the second game on monday night, how about that . Malcolm jenkins with the interception on i was drew luck in the Fourth Quarter and that was a big play in the 3027 win. Cant get enough eagles so far this season. All right. There was a time many years ago College Athletics was pure. It was for the love of the game and the ncaa would try to enforce the rules. But now many universities are involved in the cover ups. Thats a case with Florida State quarterback james miss winston. Lets go over his problem. Accused of Sexual Assault two years ago but never really investigated now the school is forced to investigate. He steals crab legs from a market and gets a suspension from the Baseball Team not the football team. Now there are approximately 900 autographs at winston being sold and if paid for those, it is a suspension inn frack but the coach has notre dame coming up this weekend. Kids sign thing all the time. So what do you want to do, stop signing stuff . We can make not have any fans. I mean from that standpoint and not sign for anybody. I mean thats what its going to come to. And thats a shame. Thats a shame for for College Football that we cant take a kid and somebody supports a kid f theyre getting paid for it i have no knowledge of that. I dont believe james miss did. Let me clue him in. 900 autographs. Most of mini helmets and jersey do you think fans are Walking Around with mini helmets all the same items. Hes very generous. He is . Notre dame is coming up this weekend. All right. So he doesnt want him to get suspended for this game. He has no knowledge, howard. He noose knowledge. Theyre all dumb. laughter . And with that, all new at sick governor Chris Christie answers the question of whether hed ever want to be a u. S. Senator. And incredibly descriptive answer doesnt exactly leave any wiggle room.
