So well time it out mainly now through about midnight. Were looking at that rainfall mainly north and west. Mixing in at times heres 10 00 oclock once again. The Lehigh Valley the pocono mountains with wet snowflakes and keep in mind it was 70 degrees yesterday. So the ground is relatively warm. If we have any accumulations, its mainly going to be on the car tops as well as the grassy surfaces. But well continue to find dry weather tomorrow morning through most of the up coming weekend before another shot of rain perhaps snow by sunday. So heres the bottom line. Evening scattered showers, the wet snowflakes north and west. The main window 6 00 oclock through midnight mainly north and west. Light coating of snow possible in the pocono mountains and take a look at this particular computer model showing you berks county moving into lehigh northampton and as we move toward carbon and monroe a coating on the grassy surfaces and the car tops. Low this morning, 39 degrees. The afternoon high 10 degrees below where we should be this time of year. And look at the numbers. Already at freezing in lancast lancaster. Freezing in the pocono mountai mountains. 34 in pots noun. Where you saw those first flakes earlier. 41 in philadelphia. Low 40s in south jersey. Much of the nation dealing with that is arctic blast. 30 in st. Louis. We have 10 degrees right now in rapid city. Low 20s in the twin sisters so that cold air impacting a lot of folks this time of year. So for tonight, the wet snow mainly north and west of philadelphia. 34 degrees for the low. Temperatures tomorrow evening colder than today. 44 degrees staying pretty chilly. That seven day forecast shows you cloud cover rolls back in. Sunday into monday with some rain maybe some wet snow but then the coldest air yet by tuesday and wednesday of next week. High temperatures only in the 30s. So get the winter gear ready and keep it handy. I know. The next four or five months. All right. Thank you scott. Did you get a heavier coat. I brought my winter coat in today. Ive broken it up before. Two weeks ago. Thank you scott. We think. All right. Howard. Its where we live. I know. Youll need a winter coat. Im going to need more than a winter coat in green bay. The eagles playing what i think is the Toughest Team they have played all season that will be sunday in green bay. And that would be cold green bay. Its a game against the best quarterback in the nfl right now. Aaron rodgers playing better than any quarterback but the eagles also have to worry about what they do. And one player hopes the eagles can get their running game going. That would be eagles running back lesean mccoy hoping the r running game really does get going. Mccoy had only 19 yards on 12 carries last week. But it was a big eagles win. Now some question whether mccoy had lost a step. So it can get frustrating for lesean mccoy even though he leads the league in carries and sixth in the league in rushing. But theres something more important than personal stats. Bottom line are we winning Football Games and were winning Football Games you have to understand there are certain things are maybe not going your way. Days where we have to run a lot and throw it a lot. Weve got a team of unsettle fish players the ultimate goal at the end of every day they dont ask you when they see you they ask you what your record is. It doesnt really matter how i feel about it, you know, trying to win games and get to that ultimate goal that weve been playing this game for. You get the team ranged in the bottom four and run defense doing something to try to change it up a little bit obviously they put a big emphasis on that throughout the week. You get beat other ways. He understands that. Hes out here every day. Practices every day. He has a really i think when we can get him going in the games we have got him going hes been outstanding im very pleased with lesean this year. Biggest for the eagles on sunday that quarterback Aaron Rodgers hes clearly really the hottest quarterback in the nfl right now. Last week through for sick touchdowns against chicago. And that was in the first half. The packers started out losing two of their first three games this season and since have won five of six games. In those games rogers has 20 touchdown passes big job for the eagles defense. The eagles are always up for these challenges. Let me put it this way. Hes a great quarterback. Hes one of the top quarterbacks in this league right now. I respect him. We have a lot of respect for him. Well have to get their fast as we can. At least try to get him moving, doing some we can get him to i mean as a pass rusher to try to do our best to get him move off the spot. And sunday morning fox 29 game day live starts at 11 00. Followed by fox nfl sunday at noon and 49ers and giants at 1 00 followed by eagles and packer at 4 25. The record broken in the guiness book of world records. Its the longest basketball shot but in a different way. Backwards basketball shot. Thunder long of the grown trotters. 18 feet 2inches. He beats the old records by 10 feet. Hit a little bit of rim. Ill give him a squish on that. It is just incredible that you can do that. But the thing that i dont know and i dont have an answer for it, how many times did he try. Of course hell say he did it in one take. Exactly. Thanks howard. Coming up at sick what happened in this West Philadelphia home.
