More on those stories in a moment but first we will turn our attention to the exclusive forecast and meteorologist chris sowers, rain, super bowl sunday, chris. For now we are seeing a little bit of snow in the western counties here but majority of this will be rain, just temperatures will be cold enough to support a little bit of that white stuff. Winter weather advisory in effect until 10 00 p. M. For counties highlighted here. We are expecting light snow to transition over to a icy mix, sleet, freezing rain but will go over to rain by mid afternoon. Could be minor accumulations in this part of the viewing area perhaps a coating to as much as an inch here in these area. And because of that there could be slick spots out there Storm Tracker six very latest here lots of colors showing up on the radar. We have green to the south which is where rain is falling , light snow to the north and right in between here we see sliver of blue. That is where we are seeing a wintry mix of snow, rain and sleet pellets mixed in. This line will lift to the north over next half an hour, so again by mid afternoon it should be all the way up between here north of the pennsylvania turnpike approaching the lehigh valley. Wider view shows plenty of moisture out there. This is just the beginning, once the rain starts to move in and it will come down, steady toy occasionally heavy at times, set up a rather messy Late Afternoon into the early evening hours, and around the region here. Temperatures wise and thinks part of the problem this is why advisory has been issued for far western counties we are still below freezing. Twentynine in kutztown. Thirtyone in new holland, 31 pottstown. Twentynine in slatington. But look what is going on the other side of the delaware river. We have milder air moving from the south east, 30s and 40s across south jersey and delaware. So for today accu weather says rain developing, whatever snow you are seeing right now will go over to rain by about 12 30 or 1 00 oclock. High temperatures around 44. I will be back along in a few minutes and time everything out with future tracker six and i will that have accu weather seven day forecast. Chris, thank you. Super bowl sunday, it is finally here.

With that said were excited, it is game day we are hoping eagles will make history and they want to win one for the city that is so proud of them and proud eagles fans and our Jeff Skversky has that story. Reporter in the streets of philadelphia there has been a empty feeling, a dark cloud hanging over our city. It makes eagles fans sick to their stomach. Call it a curse, call it bad luck, call it whatever you want but the eagles are yet to be called super bowl champions it pains the people, the owners, the players, and the coaches for more than 50 years in a city rich in in history, history has in the been kind to our beloved eagles. I know what it means to the city. I know what it means to us there has been a lot of hard work a lot of waiting for this opportunity. Reporter eagles feel the weight of the city on their shoulders this team as likely as they are to be here in super bowl lii are trying to shoulder the pain and shoulder the load of all of the failures that have come before them. 1980, 2004, and all of the other bat breaks along the way only regret i have in my career is not bringing a championship to philly. Oh, yeah, even though i have been there for this season, you can get a sense of how important it is to the city and we want to go get them one for them. They deserve a super bowl. They have been stretching for a super bowl. As players we will do everything we can to deliver that. Reporter if there was ever a team that personified the Philadelphia City it is this eagles team. I will go to war with everyone in that dressing room reporter under dogs like rocky who eventually despite all odd became champion of the world, eagles fans cannot take one more punch to the gut, philadelphia is ready to knock out the patriots. We embody what our city is. Were a bunch of guys, we dont care about the glitz, glamour, very blue collar, we enjoy a fight, we talk a little trash and we fly around and hit people. Reporter eagles can envision what it will feel like to win that first super bowl and parade down broad street. Going up broad street, you know, it will be a great feeling. It will be pure craziness, better get extra security you dont know what will happen. Lets hope it does happen. I think that the city has really embraced this team because of adversity they have been through this year, hopefully today is the day that philadelphia finally gets to hoist a lombardi trophy. They have who a Pro Bowl Team with carson wentz, jason peter, jason maragos, jordan hicks. We should find out, if the eagles will bring it home.
