Sunny and 72 today. Milder than yesterday once we get into the afternoon. And then sunny and nice tomorrow, 73. 74 friday. 74 saturday. Sunshine there as well.

On sunday pleasantly warm for that final union match. 76 is the high so a great day to get out there and do stuff, maybe go to the union and then on monday, still mild with a high of 77 and the eagles playing at night. A front is going to be coming toward us and some models are suggesting a little popup sprinkle or shower at night but hopefully its spotty enough where it misses the stadium or holds off until after the game. Then the following day tuesday cloudy periods of rain in all likelihood an cooler high of 70 even though that is above average. Enjoy this. Its a nice little stretch. Going to get cooler sooner or later. Thank you david.

This is from i95 northbound to the platt bridge and the schuylkill and as chopper pans back look at the headlights here.
