Now they are describing their relief as they felt as they saw the u. S. S. Ashland on the horizon. Oh, god, weve been saved. It was the most amazing feeling because we honestly did not believe that we would survive another 24 hours in the current situation. They made it. The navy vessel picked up the two women and their two dogs. They say they survived all of that time by using the water purifiers on their boat and eat, the food that they had on board.

This is the second time this award has been handed out. The first time it went to m night himself. Last night he passed it on to bruce willis. There you were right in the middle. I know. Home grown, pretty cool. Cool stuff. Alicia thank you. It is time once again for a check on the accuweather forecast as we cruise into the weekend. Yeah. Its going to be smooth sailing to start but then kind of rocky as we get into sunday especially and monday morning. As we take a look at the Weather Center here, live on sky6, all things look great right now on this friday. That deep blue sky, that Delaware River right now really lack of clouds here this afternoon and much milder than it was just this time yesterday and we relaxed the winds as well. As we take a look at that weekend forecast saturday warm with sun and clouds, 70 degrees. Definitely hands down the pick of the weekend because by sunday, rain comes in in the morning, turns heavy and steady especially in the afternoon and evening with the High Temperature of just 66 degrees.

The current numbers 55 in mount pocono, 64 allentown reading, lancaster as well as wilmington, 67 in dover. 64 degrees in millville and pretty similar at the shore so really nice afternoon, very average for this time of year. High pressure is in control right now and you can see all of that sunshine, clear sky on the east coast. That remains the case tomorrow. Clouds will be increasing with this front and that front will link with that moisture down to the south. In fact as we look at future tracker sunday morning at 11 30 a. M. , thats when some of the light showers start to come in. You see some heavier pockets west and south of lancaster. That arrives in philadelphia by about 3 oclock in the afternoon, two hours into the eagles game, pretty nasty down there at the linc. 8 30 in the evening, still rain, heavy at times and that starts to lift out on monday morning but some lingering rain early on monday at 8 00 a. M. And thats also when the strongest winds will be rotating in as the storm develops. 2 00 a. M. On monday, winds near 45 miles an hour. Maybe theres a little electricity problem sunday night, monday morning with winds gusting near 50 miles an hour, even southern areas trying to touch 60 early on monday morning. Rainfall totals the euro with a jackpot of 2. 67, lower for the gfs nam and rpm. Leaning towards the higher amount as opposed to the lower amounts. 70 beautiful tomorrow with high clouds increasing in the afternoon. That nasty day sunday, alert day at 66. Windy clouds to sun on monday, 59 as it improves and again trickortreat looks good, 60 degrees for a high in the afternoon. Ill have that sevenday forecast coming up in the next half hour for you.

Steve sweeneys negative headlines keep piling up. Why are south jerseyans so angry at sweeney . Sweeney repeatedly sided with Chris Christie to underfund south jersey schools, increase standardized testing like parcc, cut takehome pay for teachers, and broke his promise to fund the pensions of hundreds of thousands of new jerseyans all while padding his own. Steve sweeney says a lot of things. But the truth is, hes not on our side. Ohio state police finally captured a driver who led them on a high speed chase but they were shocked when they realized who was driving. Stole his parents car. And hes 10. He is 10. I got a good look at him. He is 10. You heard that right. A 10yearold boy stole his fathers car and took off reaching speeds nearly a hundred miles an hour. He even cut across a highway median and drove into the path of oncoming traffic and drove into a ditch to evade the police. For him to pull over and the child shook his head no and continued driving. Yikes. State trooper eventually cut the boy off causing him to crash and they learned this is not the first time hes done Something Like this. Earlier this month he also took his mothers car out for a spin. The 10yearold was taken into custody but its unclear at this point if charges will be filed. Wow. Well, a Wild Police Chase in wisconsin was caught on an officers dashcam. And it all started with teenagers allegedly stealing items from a walmart.

Officers eventually used spike strips to slow the teens down and after 16 miles of trying to elude police, the teens surrendered one by one and were taken to jail and charged. Big talkers now. If youve ever tried traveling with a tot in a stroller particularly on Public Transportation you know the stress and the sweat involved not to mention the maneuvering that kind of rivals nascar and if you have your stuff with you, the bags, et cetera, forget it. Ive been there for the stroll ever schlep. Theres a dad in new york city who started a petition to allow strollers unfolded on new york city buses. Aaron, dad of 21 month old alma wants the mta to allow stroll ertz to remain opened on buses kind of like wheelchairs. Some parents say kids should be given the exact same rights as disabled people but others feel like strollers when theyre opened clog the buses, trains, et cetera, so they are against it. Okay, we havent even seen the Great Pumpkin yet but its beginning to look a lot like christmas in manayunk. As you can see the lights are being strung with snowflakes aglow on main street. Some folks, like myself, say bring it on. Others are taking to social media to say, okay, one holiday at a time, people. We reached out to the Manayunk Development Corporation and they explain it like this. They say they realize some might be surprised by the early installations here but they are working with 25yearold electrical infrastructure and it typically takes nearly two weeks to get the city and private electricians out to get all of the stars and flags working. So, behold, christmas in manayunk ahead of halloween. We asked what you think about the head start on all this Holiday Cheer and folks mostly saying, majority of you saying i think its too soon. Roughly 201 of you. 47 say it is never too early. Hey, make that 48. I didnt get on and vote yet. Finally on this friday we bring you just about the cutest models we have ever had on this show. These pups are showing off the latest in canine couture. While they kind of look like doggie leotard theyre called shed defenders. This is not just about fashion but function. Theyre made of a light weight breathable material with the goal of eliminating shedding. There they are trying them on for size. Its the brainchild of Tyson Walters who says his pup sheds everywhere and its good for folks with dog allergies and anxious pups because they feel secure in that snug fabric. In case you are wondering how you get it on, heres your little demo there. I guess the dogs got to kind of stay still for the span desk. Theres even a nifty tail cutout in the back you know like that whole Cold Shoulder thing, its like the cold tail thing. It looks pretty cute but apparently theres great function to it. Super heroes. Lets not ignore the fact that that dog appears to be driving that car which is even more impressive. I dont see the keys. All right. Oh, gosh. Thank you, alicia. Speaking of, it is time for another check on the roads tonight. Matt pelman here now with the update for us. Hey, matt. Gottenyearolds driving cars, dogs driving cars. I think its time to review the rules maybe. Good afternoon to you brian and sharrie. Were dogged with delays in a lot of spots on this friday afternoon. Were definitely shedding Miles Per Hour as you can see here along 95. Were in the slow zone in both directions close to allegheny avenue. Just a lot of afternoon volume at this point. No accidents on this chunk of 95. Overnight tonight, weve got construction coming to this stretch of 95 between allegheny and girard and theyre going to stop all traffic for 15 minutes at a time so if you can avoid 95 in this area allegheny to girard during the overnight hours tonight, i think that would be a good idea. On the big picture otherwise, just a lot of volume, slow speeds on a friday afternoon, 11 Miles Per Hour on the eastbound side of the schuylkill by girard avenue, just 16 on the southbound side of the blue route, 476, traveling near broomall and weve got problems on the other chunk of 476, the northeast extension heading northbound toward the Lehigh Valley and maybe the poconos this afternoon, theres a crash approaching quakertown taking out one lane so slowing coming up from lansdale. Had an earlier crash on the east west turnpike eastbound near norristown. All lanes are opened there but it still slows back to valley forge and with the waze app i told you about a crash along ridge pike in lower providence. Turns out there were a couple of them. Theyre both now gone so were Getting Better along ridge pike. Also Getting Better in cherry hill as you come away from the mall on the eastbound side of 38 at mill road. That accident, too, has cleared but one coming in in delaware. Well talk about that brian and sharrie, in the 5 oclock hour. Okay, matt, thank you. Meteorologist adam Joseph Standing by with the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast next. It could be the several brownies that i had in the room next door but theres a lot of reasons to smile today and the sunshine is another one of those. Its not a sugar rush. It might be. The combination. The combo. Yeah. It is beautiful out there. As we take a look right now at our sky6 which is at city hall, dillworth park, you can see those really dark shadows with that sun much lower in the horizon this time of day, this time of year but you can still see that beautiful blue sky upstairs and that will fade as we go into the upcoming weekend. In fact its a big weekend especially if youre heading to the eagles game. At 1 oclock on sunday afternoon, if youre heading to the game or if you have tickets and you tend to go to the game every now and then maybe pass them off to someone you may like or not like, say, hey, im giving you my tickets for free cause its not going to be all that great down there.

As we take a look at the temps right now pretty similar. 30 i was going to say 30 something, 63, im trying to flip that number, 63 from trenton, 64 across most of the area. Again very little variation with that deep blue sky. A little cooler in the poconos at 55 degrees. Satellite and radar, we have low pressure up towards chicago minneapolis, even bringing some snow on the backside of that low. The cold front associated with that will that continue to work to the east here and thats going to link with some moisture down to the south. In fact, it is a tropical low. Its not going to be a named storm in the caribbean but the moisture from this low will skirt its way across florida and then inject itself into that front on sunday. So, your sunday soaker, High Pressure, again an coring for tomorrow. That continues to work away. That low near miami early on saturday will start to pull itself into that that front and it all comes together off of our coast sunday afternoon and thats when were expecting rain one to 3 inches, an isolated for inches in some locations. Low lying and street flooding is possible and sunday night into monday as that low and continues to crank up and work into new england it will bring powerful winds on the backside where they could gust near 50 miles an hour. Future tracker shows sunday morning some light showers coming in. Heres during the middle part of the game, heavy rain coming in from the south and west. That continues into sunday night at 8 oclock sunday late night it continues to rain into early on monday morning before all that begins to lift out to the north and east. So, the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast here, well show temps near 70 degrees on saturday, mild with those afternoon high clouds. Rain heavy at times in the afternoon. Again, sunday 66 degrees. And then as we im kind of losing track where im supposed to be today. 66 degrees on sunday. [laughter] i was supposed to leave that area a long time ago. Windy on monday, clouds to sun, 59 degrees. And then as we get into tuesday, a sunny treat. 60 degrees. So, it does clear up, the winds calm dawn on tuesday and then wednesday, thursday temperatures still in the 60s.
