Your turkey day 12333 in philadelphia, so that wednesday, foxcast, looking at temperatures this morning, for your travel day. And in the threes, as we move toward the afternoon, sun, giving way to clouds, high of 50, and then as we move toward tonight, temperatures bottom out low fours, 50s elsewhere, could be wintery mix for some, in the Lehigh Valley and poconos overnight tonight. But, 50 in wilmington, 50 atlantic city, upper 50s allentown and there is the mess, in the midwest, that will head in our direction for tomorrow. But the eastern seaboard, right now, it is dry, it is quiet, but chicago, rain, minneapolis, snow right now, memphis, looking at thunderstorms, moving into houston, as well. As we go hour by hour, you can see, for tonight, dry, temperatures chilly, could be a little bit of some snow in the pocono mountains, and then by tomorrow morning, upper 30s, it is cloudy, when does the rainfall move in for turkey day . Toward the afternoon. And it looks like those temperatures will be dropping, as well, for your turkey day. We will spell more of the forecast out coming up. But how are the roads on this busy day, bob . Scotty, the weather conditions out there, in the midwest, 7 00 our time, obviously theyre an hour or two beforehand, thats going to cause domino delays at Philadelphia International airport. Throughout the day. Downed wires in moorestown new jersey right in front of the Municipal Parking lot. Pse g crew on the scene, taking care of business there. Here is a live look at the schuylkill expressway. Some unusual traffic patterns, not typical jammo, like we normally have at this hour. Southbound, hightstown, swarthmore, getting record of gas leak, in the area of college avenue, at princeton avenue. Got to practice for the parade. You know it, practice again today. Theyll shut down the kelly drive and the Art Museum Circle, at about 9 30 this morning. So, they can practice until 3 00. Theyre going to take break, open it up for the evening rush, and anyone who typically leaves center city, after 6 30 on night like tonight, you know it is a hot mess, you want to get out of town before 6 30. If you typically head this way on the drives. And then of course that will stay closed all the way through tomorrow for the parade. Mike and alex back over to you. Thank you, bob. We take a look at the Philadelphia International airport. Because this is the busiest travel day of the year. Yes. For ooh million americans expected to make their way to their destinations, but lauren, she is at the airport, and weve seen some lines there. But not just at the airport. Steve keeley is at wawa in pennsauken, seen a lot of cars going through there, even buses. Sure. So. Where are you going start . Start with lauren . Okay. Hello alex and mike, so look at this. You wouldnt believe it. It is not really anybody in the lines here. Weve seen them, evan flow, a lot of people coming, so they can be gone. Janet joins us from triple a. Talking little bit about why so many people are traveling this year. Lets talk low gas price. Absolutely, low gas prices have, definitely been a trying they are year. It has put a lot of disposable income back in peoples pockets, and that affords them the opportunity to travel for the holiday. So talking home, 50,000 people we think will be at the airport today . About 50,000, philadelphia area resident, will fly to their destination this thanksgiving. Today, wednesday, is the heaviest volume in terms of departure days that the airport will see all year. Lets talk, this is busy day, one of the busiest since 2007, flight. Yes. We saw thanksgiving day travel, somewhat peak in 2007. Then once the recession hit in 2008, we have been steadily increasing travel volume ever since. The most travelers will see this year since 2007. And how much has the average traveler spent on their ticket to get to the turkey day table . This year triple a projected that the average rounds trip flights, 205. Thats actually up about 20 from last year. But still reasonable for a family that wants to travel. Seems like it is a real low price, 205. Thats good. Janet, thank you so much. Mike and alex, the line nothing compared to what we saw maybe an hour ago. Most confusion, not knowing where the tsa pre check line; oh, get here oh, i have to get to give rent line. But expect that to happen because people coming today are these one time a year travelers, not the experience business travelers you see sometimes. Ive even done that, gone to pre check line, like no, no, no, get to the real line. Like oh, man. Making the 6 30 flights, probably little lull. Another rounds coming for sure. All day, all day. All day all day. 570,000 people are hitting the roads from the philadelphia region alone. You know how triple a get the number . Somebody stands out on the turnpike with a clicker, they do that 567,000 times. Interesting job . It would be. Click, click, click. Into new jersey, like this Iron Mountain trucker doing, so you got that blinding you, as well. And way more traffic, because you dont just have the normal people who are working today but then you have all of the holiday travelers just leaving now. Weve met lots of them. So a lot of people on the roads. Look at route 73 here. These people coming from philly, headed eastbound. What they tell to you do is they tell you if you didnt leave sunday 6 00 a. M. , wigs the best time to leave, for thanksgiving, by the way, do you want your relatives from the sunday before thanksgiving at your house . Do you really want people there that long . Anyway, the best time to go back home, ready for this one . 6 00 a. M. On saturday. So who is going to get up early on saturday, when youre off, but thats what they are telling to you do, because you dont want that black friday crowd hitting, you, as well, best time, 4 00 p. M. Saturday. Dont leave 4 00 saturday afternoon, thats when triple a says everybody is going home at the same time advice from people who got up real early today to get to grandmoms house. Couple friends said lets have some fun before the holidays start, so were going duck hunting. You cooking duck . I have two turkeys im cooking. Im leaving early, get out of work early today. Leaving early to beat the traffic really. You know . Get safe. Leaving early, we want to beat the rush, get past washington, and baltimore, and hopefully beat that traffic and be in North Carolina before you know. Any advice for people traveling this morning . Take your time, dont drink and drive and be with the family. Any time i give you any kind of compliment, so im going to thank you again this year, because im not going to do this as long as do you it. I can tell you right now. Barely getting through every day as it is. But looking at team behind the scenes picture right now. Mike, since i dont have monitor any more, as we say, were monitoring this situation, im monitoring not having a monitor. Mike, youre going to have to give a shout out to all of the behind the scenes people who make our jobs a lot easier, by the way, tanya mills who you see, wave for us. Steve . Im north coming back to this area again, ill go somewhere warm, because it is so cold today, im going as close to the equator as i can. Oh,. But anyway, getting back to the point, mike, who are those people behind the scenes who do such a wonderful job every day . Steve, i dont know why youre doing this to me, avenue head cold. You know i dont talk to my coworkers. Ive known ive worked with these people five, six years. Most of them i dont even know. Jeff kline, megan willky, candice there, kinds of dark, so trying to see everybody. Chris is in the really bright green. Put it back on steve . I just want to say that so nice, been going through everyone this morning, and thanking everyone, but we want to thank you, because i promise you, i love your stories. I love whenever hes out there, doing the great job that he does, you make this show. It is a pleasure to work with you. Alex, Walter Cronkite used to do this, the wednesday evening before thanksgiving every year. He used to thank all the the science people. I couldnt believe how many people it took to put on newscast from around the world, before cbs cut back, before i got back in the business, i remember thinking thats kind of coolests doing, that so stealing from uncle water walter one of the greats of broadcast news. So steve thanking all of us, all of his coworkers today. Yes. Thats nice. Even giving credit where it is due. So thank you, steve. Where would we be without steve . Number one . Just kidding. Stop it. Kidding. Steves great. He is the life blood, the glue of the show. And the historian, i love how it keeps all of us together. Steve keeley, muse lidgelidge. I have the mucus, he has the muselink. Breaking news. President elect donald trump has tapped governor nikki haley to be the un embassador, first woman hes pick so far to work with him. And just to give you some extra information, since the governor of South Carolina, i used to live in South Carolina, been the governor there since 2010, also the first female governor of south caroline and the first indian american. Thats right. Probably of any state. Lets look that up. Also, sorry about my voice. Is she the first un female embassador staff . Well check into that, as well. I think not. Wasnt Caroline Kennedy . Okay, which un em ambassador in like john boltens old job . Well look this up. Well get more for you. Donald trump. Donald trump waking up in florida this morning. As his and mid station continues candidates. International sign up. Oh, i didnt realize. I wanted to you take over reading and did you. Usually whether you tap me i got the message. I didnt have to do that. No. Okay. Off the rales here already. Only 7 12. Really . Doug . Samantha power ambassador to the united nations, so, yes, nikki haley would not be the first to is her in that post. Thank you for clearing that up. Yes. Lets go. The day before thanksgiving, but this is a big move. Nikki haley had cautious things to say about donald trump, put it that way, but it does look like hes coming into the fold now, and that job, by the way, talking about elevating that to cabinet level post. Other positions including secretary every state that may go to former trump rivals. Donald trump arriving in florida. Headed to his estate for thanksgiving. But the intrigue in trump towers continues. Yesterday, trump emerged to meet with editors and riders from the New York Times part of on again off again meeting the big headline this morning from the time. Trump drops new investigation into clinton as much as trump preelection crowd, delighted in light of prosecuting clinton over email use and the dealings every her Family Foundation it is not something that trump will seek as president. Some not happy about the move, the others which is done in it. Dow really want to take up front page space, talking about Hillary Clinton every weaning . I dont think so. Other trump news, president ial candidate ben carson said hes been offered cabinet post, secretary of housing and urban development. I would say one of the options on the table. Newspaper in South Carolina reports that trump wants governor Nicky Nikki Haley to be. N ambassador, and mitt romney becoming secretary of state, replacing former new york rudy giles, some may find truck. The kind of tough minded America First policies, that trump has campaigned on, trump, somebody at state, very tough. So we lost the signal for doug there. Im going to blame this on my cold. Okay. Because i was alive during Jean Kirkpatrick being un ambassador during the reagan administration, i should have remembered that. Things are little cloudy here. 7 15. Today is the last time president obama will perform a favorite thanksgiving tradition, bringing out the turk. I turkey pardon. Daughter sasha and malea always been by the president s side for this occasion, and there they are. Since 1947 the chairman of the National Turkey federation, has presented a turkey to the president of the united state. To grant the pardon, a birds, todays most turkeys from todays pardon will live out the rest the days at their new home, hasnt happened yesterday. From last year . Im pretty sure. It will happen today i think. Okay. Probably. I havent seen malea in a while. Oh, my goodness, i meant to send this in. They have a video that shows pictures from when they first were in the white house. Yes. When president obama was first elected until now. Weve literally watched them grow up. Eight years. Oh,. So tall. I didnt realize malea got so tall. Just like her father. And their mother. So, theyre going to live out the rest of their days at the new home at Virginia Tech university. Oh, look at them in 08. Oh, my gosh. Wow. They grew up so fast. Okay, alex. Seriously. You know what people normally say when they see stuff like this, it means were getting olds. Oh, ya. Listen, the only good thing about the two candidates this year, clinton and trump, theyre older than me. And always used to make me feel good that the president was always older than me. And when i was older than the president , i felt bad about that. But now, ya, old people are back. The things you are happy about. And to watch baron grow up. Oh, that will be a good time. I love spoiled kids. Stop t we dont know that. No, i dont know, but my kids are spoiled, what i am saying. Because you spoil them. Okay. Wish i had a kid named baron. All right, the white house my exwife wishes i was a baron. All right, the white house instagram photos, what am i doing . Oh, the two turkeys being pardoned, that is tater, they named the turkey tater. Who enjoys snacking on worms. Actually i want to sit here and say this next phrase. What . The turkey enjoys snacking on worms, and walks with swagger. No, i had to give thomas the lesson, it is swagga, there is no er. Really, do you say swagger . He walks with swagger. So anyway, it the ot who enjoys oh,. Thats the other one. Oh, sews there is tater and tot. Also enjoys snacking on tomatoes slice and walked with a relaxed saunter. It is a saint er. But when spells wrong it, makes a difference. Now, whats the difference between saunter and a swagger . It is like hey, and swag is her more like the studio . Swag is her more like ya. Yeah. And then saunter this is swagger. Scott, why dont you show us . Do you have more swagger or more saunte . I dont know, maybe little bit of both. Oh, okay. Strut your stuff on this travel day. All right, weather by the numbers, scale of one to ten, we are looking at a seven. Dry day for now along the eastern seaboard, but it is a cold start out there this morning, look at the temperatures, 28 atlantic city, 29 in wilmington, 31 in trenton. And across the board, looking at 50 for the high in center city, a down the shore, upper 40s in the Lehigh Valley. So, take a look at the eastern seaboard right now. We are dry. That i95 corridor looking good. But off to the west, look at that mess, minneapolis, chicago, sense nasty, memphis, it is headed in our direction for tomorrow. We will go hour by hour, through the day, no problems. Cloud cover tonight. Upper 30s, across much of the area. There might be couple of flurries in the poconos overnight tonight. And then tomorrow morning, 8 00 a. M. , waking to up temperatures in the 30s, but watch that clock, and watch the green, moving in, by late morning, into the afternoon. And that will be the wet mess, not a wash out, but some light showers in that forecast for turkey day. Gobble gobble, bob kelly. Gobble gobble, scotty, 7 20. Good morning, everybody, on a wednesday. Get away day, live look at 95, southbound, time to make the donuts and the stuffing, as we crawl in from cottman avenue in through girard avenue. South on the new jersey turnpike, an accident just south of the hightstown interchange. For the gang in abington, huntingdon pike, susquehanna road, watch for lower salford maine and hunts burger lana crash. The major roadways, just seeing some normal volume. Nothing really out of the ordinary. New Jersey Transit river line, theyre using buses, boards end town to roebling, because every some track problems. But otherwise, the patco highspeed line, amtrak, all aboard, acela no problems this morning, and note for septa, the regional rails, theyll kick in their fare Collection Program at noon today. That basically means theyll be checking the fares at the top of the station before go down the platform, something they were doing there during the strike days, if you may remember, so make sure you have your tickets in advance for the evening ride home. Mike and alex back over to you. Which one do you think bob has . Do you think he has more black. Oh, bob, he is he saunters. Show us bob, ya. Now thats a saunter. Okay, go a led. Cars, food, but ive never heard of this, a form of food. Gravy recall, before thanksgiving. You cant have that. How do you recall gravy . And how buys already made graphy . Have you ever bought pre made gravy . Pork gravy . Anyway, it is being recalled it, should be recalled, maybe it shouldnt even exist. Again, ive never heard after gravy recall. Lauren simonetti . It is happening as we make our thanksgiving dinners, right . You buy your gravy if you dont make it yourself to pour on your turkey dinner. I dont want to exaggerate here, but could kill you because if you have a severe milk or soy allergy this gravy has been miss label as pork gravy, therefore, it contains milk and soy. If youre not supposed to have that you could be having it, and you could be in jeopardy here. Good news, no injuries reported. So this is what you got to look out for. Called the heinz bristro grews jaffe i, am i saying that right . Never knew how to say that. Aujus. Aujus. Gravy. It says pork it, might not be. How do you know . You check to make sure, there is upc code. We can post it on line, it is really long. And check the best buy date, december 28th, 2017. The 12ounce glass jar. So be careful if you have this in your cabinet, and do you have an allergy. Ive never purchased premade gravy. Well how do you make it . He doesnt make it. Well, i dont make t my mom makes it. Exactly. I mean, do you buy gravy in a jar or a can . I dont personally but im sure a lot of people do. My guess. I also dont by tomato sauce, marinara sauce in a jar either. Right. You dont sound so good, mike . I think he sounds like shepherd smith. Debra smith . No, shepherd smith. I was watching him yesterday. He has a deep voice. He has a little southern accent. From oxford, mississippi, isnt he, ya. Yes,. Well, lauren i hope you have a a great thanksgiving. You too, guys, stay away from that gravy. We will. Just a note. Either one of owe coworkers, tony, found interesting note, debating this, wants to have pot luck, which is great, im all for, that but she asks people to bring for the thanksgiving pot luck breakfast food. I was like well how do you do breakfast food for thanksgiving . How does that work . Like turkey omlet . Well, what she means is well have the pot luck. , no she said breakfast food.

But it is thanksgiving. Youve never had lunch stuff tore breakfast . People have breakfast for dinner. True. Like steak and eggs.

Again, the big delay now folks, looks like, folks trying to get to the mass transit station, you got 30th street there, weve seen extra volume on 95 headed down to the airport, and an accident in whitemarsh, chief lane right at the skippack pike, also some sun glare hitting us, getting ready for the parade, right after the morning rush hour, 9 30, shut down the kelly drive and the Art Museum Circle for parade practice, open it up for the evening rush and then shut it down again tonight, at around 6 30 all the way through tomorrows thanksgiving day parade. Mike back over to you. When you got your drivers license, did you check the box to become an organ donor . Ive talked about this five, six years, you have to do. That will organ donors, can save up to eight lives, and enhance the quality of life of 50 other people. That knowledge can give comfort to grieving families. On november 2nd, 2010, eat and moyer was struck and killed by a drunk driver. He was only 20 years old. He had registered as organ donor, that might, seven families got the call they had been waiting for. Among them, four month olds josie whose liver was failing and ellie who had been waiting for a lung. The moyer received letters from all of the recipients, but today, some are more like family. They say their sons gift to others gave them comfort and hope for the future. And they want the public to know that the decision to donate is mutually beneficial. Well, were all here for thanksgiving, the day before thanksgiving. Linda, ron, good to see you. Morning. Before we talk to josie annelidan there, who received eat ands organs, tell me more about ethan. He was 20 years old, we called him our hippy child. He was a drummer. He loved rockandroll. Then he started playing jazz music because it was more difficult. And he taught us so much about music and giving and he was loved writing poetry, just a neat kid. Never gave us any problems. Just a good kid. Everything loved him. He was a peace maker to his friends. And you miss him every day. Every day, sure. So linda, did you talk about being an organ donor before the accident . I wouldnt say so. I am a nurse. And it is something that he saw me go to work every day in that capacity, but i cant say we discuss philadelphia. Check it off . Check it off on his own, he renewed his license, so he made a conscious decision in september of 2010 to be that donor. Probably doesnt surprise you . Not at all, not at all. Thats who he was . A giver. He was a give he err and he was a thinker. So youve gotten to know josie prep well. We have, beautiful, like a grand caughter. What did josie get . She got a part of ethan liver, total liver failure, so at that point his liver could be divided, adult and child. Where do you go to school . Christian school. I know that school. Cool school. Are you doing well . Okay. Where are you going to go for thanksgiving . My grammys house. Does she make good food . Can i come . Sure. Ellie, god to have you here on the show. Nice to be here. Thats okay, she has a microphone. What organ did you get . I have ethans lungs. Wow. What can you say . I know im turnly grateful, turnly grateful. Obviously to him, and also to his parents, because they had to, i think, also authorize it even though he had selected that. So to obviously im turnly grateful, able to live my life the way i would have like to have lived it originally, and it enabled me to get off of oxygen, which i had been on for several years. And to live a fairly normal life, yes, i am very, very thrilled, really am. Tell me about hes helping he helped seven other people . Yes, nine solid organs were recovered, so two technically, two to ellie, then the liver being split to two different people which makes the seven folks. Plus, i would like to mention, too, 150 folks benefit from tissue bone and vessel transplantation, they bank those, and burn victims or vascular issues, so he helped so many people, and the words just keeps spreading. Un believable. Thats what we love. That means hes still here. Still here. Yep. He is still here. Right there. Exactly, exactly. So seven people, and one of them was a drummer . Yes. Like ethan. Thats all he wanted out of life, was to be a jazz drummer, when we received the letter, about a year and a half later, the letter started out my wife and i read your letter, we cried our eyes out, something about my husband you cannot possibly know. She said that hes a professional drummer. That was amazing. Yes. So out of the seven people, how many do you contact or know . We contacted everybody initially, and we did receive letters back from everyone initially but the relationships are with three families. Yes. And thats really unique, it is very unique to have that, it is a blessing. So when you see little josie and ellie there, do you see ethan . I see his peace. Yes . His spirit. He was like the most laid back, peaceful young man, always giving. And i think thats what i see in each of them. Yes. Do me a favor. Have a great thanksgiving. Thank you. Another great thing, josie was the flower girl in our daughters wedding. Is that right . At three years old. She is family. I know, she sure is. Real quickly here. You guys, where did you live most of your life . In the poconos. Poconos. But then you moved to arizona what seven months ago. Briefly, yes. Why did you come back . Our soninlaws job didnt work out. So shes our only daughter, and they said they wanted to move back, so we all came back. Family again. Family again. Have a great thanksgiving. Wonderful to meet you all. Thank you, sir. Well come right back. Nativity scene of the baby jesus, so many people have it in their homes, also specially see it when you go to church. Now new casino.

Virgin mary, off the shoulder top, poses for photo. The three wise men, amazon delivery men riding segways, the ipod the entire moment. Set sells for 129. 99. Mike, you seem to like this . Well no no, i dont like it, but i did post about it to get peoples opinions of it last night on instagram. My daughter, really, hipster nativity set . I would say 90 of the comments were i dont like this. So lets put up cup. I one this one no, can they not ruin one thing, it is a disgrace, another says this is so wrong, yet so right. All at the same time, not cool or crude, just complete waste of money. 129 . Basically 130 bucks. All right, again, i would say, out of probably a thousand people responded on stain gram, 90 of them didnt like it at all. You go get a thousand people responding to instagram posts. Wow. You get. That will you posted something yesterday that had almost 3,000 people liking it at least. Were looking at that time. Looking at that time. It doesnt mean they were liking it. You go well, welcome to my world. Really . What did he say . We should take a break. Take a break again . Gentlemen. Lets check our instagram while were here. Ill get you go going on instagram. Www.

Scott mentioned earlier, domino delays moving through the later part of the afternoon. After done eating your turkey, what are you going to do . How about we put up the christmas decorations, you know it, getting ready for very Kelly Christmas, i want to get your house decorated, snap a picture, post it to facebook, twitter or instagram. Use the fox29lights con tells. So that i can show the houses on camera, then each week we will pick the best house, and go for a road trip. We will show up on your front lawn, and broadcast live, during the 5 00 and the 6 00 newscast, all of the details on our very Kelly Christmas contest, up there, at fox 29. Now, the question is whats the best day to decorate, scottys got that answer in 15 seconds. Bob kelly now is a good time or day after your turkey day, we have some rain falling move in for tomorrow. But, dry, quiet along the east coast, for busy travel days. But look toward chicago, showers, cincinnati, memphis, looking at rain, thunderstorm, impacting some flights there in the houston area. But right now, across the board, looking pretty good as far as those airport delays, no problems just yet. But things will likely change, as we progress throughout the day. As far as that airport travel forecast, temperatures this morning, in the threes, by this afternoon, High Temperature of about 50, sun giving way to clouds, later in the day, and then tonight, we cloud up. Later on this evening. So as we look at the foxcast across the region, upper 50s to right around 50 degrees today. But once again, looking at cloud cover tonight, and then watch the clock, tomorrow morning, dry to start, but then by 11 00 a. M. , looking at some showers moving in, for your turkey day, we will talk much more about that rain in the forecast tomorrow, coming up. Back to you. We got to show this again. Hopefully didnt see this while were you traveling yesterday. Bowl on a highway. Got loose at a slaughterhouse in kensington. It happened mid afternoon, bull spotted near kensington high school, moved onto of 76, ended up on vine st. Look at this, police were eventually able to corner it, and office her to put it down saying it was an immediate danger. Really, immediate danger. They were saying that, it was moving. It was moooving. Gentlemen. Yes, on the bovine expressway. Nice. Some people calling it this is phillys harum bull. Ya. Because they didnt want to see it killed. It was specifically a bull . We sure it is it was a bull. Been saying it was a bull since yesterday. Looks like a bull to me. Whats the difference between a bull and steer and a cow, do you know . Bull is a male. Flight. Isnt a steer a male too . Steer. Hum. We just see, i should know this, im from kansas, youre from texas, the longhorns. I know about longhorns. Im sure people on twitter will be informing us. So a cow, is a cow always a female . Because a male cow is to be the bull. Okay, what do we eat . We eat bulls . A cow is a female animal. Whats that, scott . A bull is a mature male animal that is used for breeding. And then it says a steer is a male animal that has been neutered. Oh,. Steel is a male animal neutered. Why would they neuter him . Didnt want him to mate more . He was acting up. He wasnt behaving. Maybe he was too active. Ya me. What . Okay. I should be. We are continuing to recognize people in our community to go there. You know . We at fox 29, we go there. Some of you go there. So we want to celebrate who you are. We want to just say thank you, so jen, who are you surprising today .

Get zero down, zero deposit, zero due at signing, and zero first months payment on select volkswagen models. This black friday at the volkswagen sign then drive event. Hey, press on and steve, you sent us words there may be the flip phone may come back into our lives . Is that what youre hearing about the new apple phone . Got a new patent out. And it is for a flip phone. So people are already thinking about the iphone. Hey, is that going backward, do you think . Ill tell this, this and this is long standing tradition with apple. Theyll put these patents in there. Theyll register these things, to throw off the competition. To send them off in different angles. Now, i hear what they are doing, theyll go thinner, and use what is called old lead technology, which is, you know, very, very bright incredible colors, incredible displays, and thats where theyre going. I know a lot of people though who do love that old flip phone. And love not butt dialing, be able to close all of that stuff. So it is toss, but sometimes i think theyre throwing the competition off. My take. Closing part is real important. Because i remember whenever i got maddie involved slam that phone down, you know . I mean, could you hang that phone up, boom, man. Definitely. Well, you can hit the new one with a hammer and that sends a message, as well. Well, true, you can do that. I wouldnt be opposed to it, i would like to take a lock at the design and see what it is all about. Steve you know each and every function of everything on your smart phone, im not that way at all. I know a handful of the things, but there is so much that you can do that i have no idea what you can do with, ya, with my phone the other day, nick murphy, showed me how to air drop a picture to him. Yes. Oh, my gosh. They have this . The past of years. Exactly. Terrible. Doesnt it make the quality better when you air drop, flight. Yes. It does. Kathy is going what, what is this . I didnt know it made the quality better. Like drop box. Everybody knows this stuff right . Ya, well, such a tech i. Drop box, icloud, and rain, this is what i do. Rain . Did i this the other day. I was in a restaurant, i was trying to post something, safer something so coy post it on instagram. And i couldnt figure out how zero do it, so i walk over to a couple of millennials, youre young people, would you figure out . You need to screen shot that. I know what they said to you, were not into swinging. Oh, nice. I say they were. You do this all the time. On the weaken, ill be mind mig business, send me, can i figure out how to crop this. Can you sends it to me so i can post. Oh, my gosh. Let me tell you something, for years, mack, they say the computer for everyone, so everyone can under stands it, but over the years they keep fidgeting, and adding, like we were talking last week, i dont even know all of the things on itunes any more. They muck it up by adding too much. The thing is, once you go mack, you never go back. Oh, true. I hope you guys have a great thanksgiving. Oh, we will, thank you, guys. Good day to you, 2016. From the fox 29 studios. This is good day philadelphia. From the airports to the rales, you may get jam up today. How long it may take you to get to the thanksgiving table. Are the once a year black friday deals really what they seem . Why you may not want to waste your time in line. But, the kids, they need their gifts. And if youre worried about the cost, well, we have you covered. The hottest toys for every budget. Why she has trouble getting into the white house, ellen, and she wasnt the only one had to stay put for awhile. Yes, she forgot her id. Couldnt get in the white house. We know who you are. Dont you late it when that happens . Like here, okay to get in, just cant get out. Ya . Real quickly on twitter, if you drink iced tea, which i do, i never sweet ten. You buy bottled tea and put more sweetner in it . No, when you make a tea tea, and there is no sweeter. When somebody bridges my iced tee in a restaurant it, has sugar in it, no, i dont want sweet tea tea, i want tea tea, like drinking rusty water. Ya. Well, i like a little sugar in my tea tea. Course do you. So lets talk about this werth. If you are stepping out do, they serve tea and coffee on the flights or do you have to pay for that . All right.

Chicago, cincinnati, memphis, minneapolis looking at some snow, not really impacting those flights, for the east coast philadelphia, looking good. , newark, jfk, no problems, across the country right now, looking okay, so far. But, things to change, as we watch that system, in the great lakes, and the midwest. So weather by the numbers, scale of one to ten today, it will be a seven. So hour by hour, it is cold, temperatures top out upper 40s, to right around 50 degrees. By this afternoon, then watch the clock, clouds, tonight, and then tomorrow, yes, we have some showers in the forecast, by tomorrow morning, chilly, cloudy, and then watch what happens by 10 00, 11 00 a. M. Bob kelly, looking at some rainfall, light rain across the region, for your turkey day. Bring your turkey umbrella if youre going to the parade tomorrow. 8 03, wednesday, sunshine, some unusual traffic pattern delays, kinds of hit and miss, sort of like the tsa check point lines down at the airport. We get a jam, it goes away. We get a jam, it goes away. And we got some sun glare, which hasnt gone away. Live look at the blue route in Delaware County now accident outbound on the kelly drive at hunting park avenue. Flash whitemarsh, bethlehem pike at station avenue. Around nine the 30 00, theyll shut down the Art Museum Circle and all traffic coming in on the kelly drive, that will be closed, theyll be pushing everybody off to fairmount for the parade practice today, theyll take break for the evening rush, and then coming back again tonight, at 6 30, shut it down, through the lent of the parade tomorrow. Mike and alex back over to you. Lets fuel up the car, maybe get some smacks or whatever, at the wawa. Thats where our steve keeley is. Get your smacks and hit the road, play the music. And hope you dont have them. Heres steve. By the way wawa would make both of you happy, they have the sweet tea and the nonsweet tea. But i have a better battle for you, dressing or stuffing . Oh, we cleared this up the other day. Well, when i was growing up, we always called it sorry, megan. We thought that if you have the dressing, that is outside the birds, if you put it into the birds cavity, it is called stuffing. Because you stuff the bird. Yes. Is that what you know, steve . Yes, but if your turkey goes to the dentist and had a no cavities then what do you do . Nice. The reason that was relating, most people down south did what did you in kansas, mike, stuffing outside of the curbing i which makes addressing, and i have two southern women, one going south, and one coming all the way up from the south. So, it is kind of like the masondixon line here at the wawa in pennsauken today. Im from birmingham, alabama. Oh, we are driving to. Have thanksgiving. How different are alabama thanksgiving when it comes to travel compared to philadelphia . In alabama, were not as crowded as you are here on the east coast, going by car, just a eight hour drive, so we usually leave in the middle of the night so we dont get, hit the traffic, hopefully we hopefully we miss most of the traffic. More polite in philly than they are in alabama . That was the tongue and cheek question by the way, not serious question, because i already know the answer, but whats your answer . So fast up here. We get there just as, you know, we get there the same, but you all are such hustle bustle in a hurry. Were not as polite whether we talk to each other on the road, say, when somebody cuts you off or something . Well, sometimes, yes, sometimes. What a lovely woman. Another lovely woman, megan willky, we continue our pre thanksgiving thankful to the behind the folks scene here, megan very angry with me all week, by the way, no relation to the willky fortune, because she told me do you think i would be here, so thank you megan, she said the minute, you only have 130, now i have two minutes, you better not go over. Now well over. So this segment, is going down the tubes courtesy of me. Sorry, megan, i love you. Were the reason, were the cause. I love how steve is doing the dramatic pauses, to drag the time out even longer. Way to go, steve. Did you say you have a shot of the news room, is that what you were telling me .

This is part of the talented staff that we have here at good day philadelphia. This team of people, six hours of tv every day, than Wonderful Team of professionals. There is one dude if the backgrounds there. It is a miracle. And should it be on the air . The people you saw running across, they actually work on the q show. Not even for us. Just pacing. Thats okay. Youre all i need. To get by. Lets clear up this airport as soon as possible, lauren . Hey, mike, i have to fly today, so you know i want it cleared. But look. Were at the check point here at terminal d. It has been pretty easy to go through here at this point in the day, the lining long at some point, early travel letters who thought they wanted to beat the crowd got here, slowed down little bit. Hi, where are you guys going . Florida. Everyone is going to florida. I sort of can tell what people have on, but you people still dressed warm representing the eagles watch part of florida . Orlando. Lets walk with you, we dont want people to get mad. Do you do this all the time or is this the first time . First time. Really . Why did you decide to do it . Just go tote get away.

Hey, mikes going to kansas city. How is the weather there . I dont know, were going to florida. Another group going to florida thats the place to go.

Live look at i95, dealing with sun glare this morning, nice weather in our area, but it is also causing for some delays on 95, the schuylkill expressway, some sun glare coming around the curve. Going to be traveling this holiday weekend, and you havent been to grandmoms house in the last year or so, be aware of the construction zone. Like 95, it will be a loft folks traveling, over the next four, five days, it has never been through the construction zones, as we see them here, like 95, 202. Portions of the northeast extension, keep that in mine if you are headed up to the poconos, Plymouth MeetingGermantown Pike at hickory road, accident in malvern, pedestrian struck at central avenue, and lancaster avenue. And also an accident in whitemarsh, bethlehem pike, at station avenue. And then the kelly drive, out bound, an accident, right at hunting park avenue. First big question, whats it going to be like for thanksgiving and the big parade . Scottys got it coming up in 15 seconds. We will be dry and quiet for today. But clouds some showers for thanksgiving, ultimate doppler, right now, showing, dry for the eastern seaboard, but offer to the west looking at rain, chicago, cincinnati, memphis, all the way to the gulf coast, that is tomorrow, system, so temperature wise, 34 degrees right now, so it is a cold start outside. Ooh center city, up fourths in the Lehigh Valley so High Pressure in control for now. But watch the clock, and watch that system move in for thanksgiving day. We are looking at some rainfall arriving by mid to late morning, on turkey day, back to you. Thank give turkey can be used as fuel for shoppers who want to cash in on the once a year black friday deals r they really once a year . You know what, in some deals, youre right, not that rare. So steve, it seems like were all getting the same deals, year after year. After year. Well, you know, thats the trick. They are once a year, here is the catch. Theyre once every year, it seems, we have great graphics for you. I ill start with this ad from target. We team up with the folks from brads deals. Com. Take a look on your screen for me. These are the target ads from the last three years, and if you look closely, theyre almost identical. The same scooter, the same pingpong tables, the same luggage set, back to 2013, all every those things are exactly the same as well. With maybe a 1 dollar price difference over time. Now, thats not to say that there are no great deals at target for this year, in fact, points to xbox one, that was 299, now 249, plus 40dollar target gift cards. Bottom line folks. If you see that you get real excited about some of the black friday door buster deals, kind of take a step back, do your research first. Because the deals, while good, might not be as special as you think. I want to point to you j. C. Penney for for example. We have graphic for you. Take a look, 201420152016. You guys see miami similarities . Lots every pots and pans. Lots of the same pots and pans. 24. 99 set of blue, green and red pots and pans has been in this ad for years, the thing i love about this ad, not only are the deals the same, but the pictures are exactly the same as well. These are cut and pace year to year. Take a look at macys, as well, skipping ahead. See the exact same thing. So, heres the bottom line folks. For macys shoppers if you get excited about the macy door buster deals, you can count on few things. Cashmere sweaters for women, 19. 99, shirts and ties foremen, and some sort of pair of boots, again, almost identical for each of the last three years. Now, these are all good deals, mind you, but if youre concerned that you might miss the deals, or maybe they dont have what you want in stock, keep in mind, theyll likely be back next year. Couple of quick notes before i let you go.

Do you want to see my giblets . And stuck in more ways than one. Ellen degeneres almost missed getting her medal of freedom honor, why she had trouble getting into the white house.
