Along the parade route, good morning, happy thanksgiving. Thomas, same to you. You have impressed me with your character knowledge down there, quite i am press dollars. All of the giant balloons are awaiting patiently here on west 77th street. There you see, oleff, awaiting his moment in the sun. But lets hope it is not too hot. Hes a snowman, after all. So hopefully he doesnt melt. No, he wont. It is cold up here, but the wind is fairly calm, which is good news, because that means these balloons will be able to fly at their normal altitude. The 91st edition of the macys thanksgiving day parade will unfold after last months terror attack, dump trucks have been parked strategically along the route for a tax, Thousands Police officers on hand, k9 units, were expecting three and a half Million People or so to watch in person, these 17 giant balloons, 26 floats, 12 marching bands, 1100 cheerleaders, 1,000 clowns, you get the point. It is massive. And it rings in the Holiday Season in a way that we dont see anywhere else. Tens every thousands of people came out yesterday to watch these come to life. That inflation unfolded under unprecedented security being among the balloons making their debuts, oleff, i just mentioned, jet as well. The Police Commissioner here in new york says look, given what has happened, given the world events, everyone who comes out today has a part to play. If you see something, say something. That really is the guiding principal behind todays parade, Central Park West at 9 00 a. M. This morning, winds its way downtown, ends at the iconic macy on 34th street, with of course who else santa claus. Thomas . Cant forget about saint a i know this is a parade youve been covering for several years here, robert. There is a lot of planning that goes into a parade like this. Incredible planning, not only inflation but the parade itself is experiencing unbelievable security, given that attack last month, that killed eight people. So add that to the logistics that go into the parade every single year. Yes, hoping for fun, safe time for everyone, robert mosts in new york city this morning, robert, thank you shall appreciate t lets get check of the forecast whether going to new york city or staying right here for the best parade in philadelphia. Hi, mike. Yes, we got little concerned with the winds, but thankfully theyve relaxed, not going to have any issues in new york city or here in philadelphia for the floats. So we look pretty good. Cold though. Youll need the layers headed to the parade this morning, were into the 20s, north and west every town, 29 pretty much the popular number around the board. We go down toward atlantic city, 27 degrees, wildwood with the influence of the ocean, youre the warmer spot at 35 degrees. But these numbers are 20, 30 degrees colder than where we were yesterday morning. So, mostly sunny skies, or actually mostly clear skies, going to mostly sunny skies for later today. Nothing on the big board. I mean, you have showers across north florida. If you know somebody in the pacific northwest, we have rain showers, otherwise this is some very tranquil weather coasttocoast overall. Temperatures is the big story. It the into the 20s, 30s across the east, actually watching cold air building once again just off of hudson bay. This is the cold that we have to deal with by sunday. So not until sunday vigorous cold front. Sunday we have to address our weather concerns. I dont think it will be rain. It is just some big winds. So today, low 40s, really the deal. Thirtys for the outer suburbs, tonight, moonlit skies, down into the 20s, we move the time line into friday. Where were a little bit milder. But still below average, with upper 40s, and low 50s, for your daytime high. So today again 45 in town. Thirtys for the outer suburbs, mostly sunny skies, cold day into cold night. Seven day forecast looks like this. Chilly day today. Goes to near seasonable for tomorrow. At 53 degrees, the clouds will build in. Im keeping the rain chances out for saturday. As we watch coastal storm. 54 degrees, gusty winds by sunday, in time for the eagles game, then much milder, as we get into next week. We will talk more weather coming up in just a little bit. Here is a look at traffic, right to the big boards, we do have issue in glen mills, hearing the sirens this morning, dough have issue, route 322, this is westbound, Spring Valley road, do have box truck, versus tanker truck. Not a good situation there, watching that, but it is route 322, westbound, at Spring Valley. Here is a live look at 76 in king of prussia. Looking pretty good thus far this morning, and the roosevelt boulevard, at 76. Pretty calm conditions. Light volume at this hour. Thats a look at weather and traffic together. Thomas, back to you. We love calm, mike, thank you. All right, we warm you up just a little bit, i know it is cold outside two, things will warm you up, first the lottery, lets check the numbers, if you hit it big, your whole body will get warm, right .

Lappy thanksgiving, probably preparing the thanksgiving day feast, right, have the little Furry Friends running around you, first they want to nibble, little warning that we want to tell you about, reminder if you will, there are certain things that you dont want to feed your little Furry Friends, the signature dish, turkey it, can be very toxic, if it is smothered in garlic, butter, or other seasonings, your dog or cat they can nibble if the meat is plane. Ham can also be dangerous, pork products can lead to panning cite, vomiting, is test continual issues, and the stuffing contains mushrooms, raisins, all poisonous to dogs and cats, sweet potatoes, un began i shall potatoes though are just fine. Off limit pumpkin pie, the same deal, seasonings can cause digestive problems. And we now our sue serio has rufus probably running around the kitchen this morning, sue sent in this photo.

Look at this line t has been growing all morning long. All of these turkeys, ah, they cut you off at about like 140 people they said, 149 people. Thats as much room as they have in their oven for. Thats why they you have to get here so early. Oh, hey, mo. Hey this is mo. Okay. Second in line. I told him we would grab him, because ive been circling you like a shark because it is your first time. First time, yes. How did you hear about it . I grew up in south philly. Okay . And so you kind of knew it was a tradition . Sort of new that Something Like this was going on, when i was younger. But i left and came back about 20 years later. Oh, wow. And on television. And it reminded you, so you saw on tv it, reminded you . Yes, so i decided we would do it this year. Wow. So what time did you get here . Because i was here. What time . 2 30 a. M. Because i was here at like 4 00 and were you already here sitting in your car. What made you get here so early . You wanted to get in . When i called i asked whats the procedure . And they said well, we take things in starting at 4 00 until 6 00. And i said okay. Whats a good time to get here . Un the person laughed which sent a message to me. You knew, earl. I get here early. So who usually cooks thanksgiving dinner. Say again . Who usually cooks the turkey at your place . I do. I cook. Ive been doing this for about 30 years. Wow. So this is the first year you wont have to worry about it, stress free. Look, i am a painter, im artist . Wow, amazing. And cooking and art seems to go together. So for me cooking is like painting. Wait a second. Thats a lot of trust to put in somebody, you know, to do your piece of art . Well, i dont know if it is a piece of art. Oh, trust me, it is a piece of art here. I just like cooking. I always have. I cook generally christmas and thanksgiving dinner for my wife every year. Ive been 30 years. So today is the test, youll see how it goes, giving your bird to somebody else . Well, i sees orthopedics it, so it is me. Oh, good. I never thought of that, so you bring it here and it is sees orthopedics. You have to bring it here seasoned. Great idea watch did you do, if you brine it . What do you . I didnt do the brine, no. Brine you got to be real careful. You got to do few days earlier, and slowly come up. I just kind of base the turkey, put the seasonings on it, rosemary, cage. Can i come to your place for thanksgiving. Say again . Ill sit here until it comes out of the oven and just follow you home. Real quick, what did you think . I know you got here early. You have to be happy youre here. Well, when i came, there was no one here. I thought well maybe i made a mistake. Oh. Were you like maybe there is not going to be a line . So i sat in my car, then finally dan came up, and i saw him, and so i got out of my car and i came over and i said whats up. Oh, he was the first one in line. And im the 21st in line. Now that you see this line, can we pan over here and take a look . Now you know that you made the right decision. It is all good. Thanks for letting me hang out with you this morning, ill be back. Ill be back next year. Yes, maybe ill be back next year, too, all right, hey, thomas. We told that you line was going to get long. It really is, it is a turkey society. I tell you. I wonder, is there a size limit . Whats that . Is there a size limit . No. And get this, it is a flat rate.

There is no size limit, there is no number limit. Wonder if you can bring 6 pounds turkey . 20 pounds turkey is my size. Sabina well check back in with you and your friends in just a moment. If your thanksgiving ritual includes bargain shopping, does for a lot of people, looking for the rare finds, weaver just the thing for you. Forget the malls. Malls is a good thing, but the Columbus Farmers Market is like no other place. Steve keeley joining us live, hes in burlington county, new jersey. Hi, steve. Reporter it is like jim nance says when he does the masters at augusta, tradition like no other. And the columbus market is the thanksgiving black friday Holiday Shopping tradition like no other. Open on thanksgiving morning, at 7 00 a. M. So, who are all of these people . These arent shoppers all lined up. These are the sellers, the vendors, and this is just one of the many lines, because they come in from all different directions, and look, theyre already starting to set up. We go up to the left now. And so it is most of it is outdoors, as far as you can see. We cant even show this stuff. Look to the left theyre over thereon that side. Theyre over here. This thing will give you quite a work out. Just to walk through all of the vendors and see what they have for sale. What an amazing place to be. You can get anything and everything here. And if you werent watching last half hour, if you are just waking up, normally used to seeing the lovely karen hepp anchoring the show with Thomas Drayton, well, we have special holiday interested thats were starting here, we now have karen hepps cousin, one of the sellers here who we met this morning. So after our interview, you let me know this little fact here, that youre karen hepps cousin. Correct. What is she like that the family function that you met her at . I didnt meet her at a family function, last time i met hershey was on site interviewing someone. It was a while ago. Did she have any clue that were you her cousin . No, not at all. Do you brag to people that you know youre karen hepps cousin . Once in a while. Thats a positive thing . We dont really know each other, but yes. Thats good thing being karen hepps cousin, thats what im trying to say. I would say it is a good thing, i feel proud there is somebody in the family doing real well. Does it get you better tables at restaurant or spot at the beach . No, no. She doesnt ever invite you to the avalon beach homy take it . No, never saw the avalon beach home, never met the nephews, neices. So maybe a hepp Family Reunion maybe in avalon one year and youll get the invite . That could be. Like i said, my mother, her last name was hepp, and theyre all, you know, german descent. And thats how i found out all about it. You know, the odd thing, youre working on thanksgiving morning, of course she is off sleeping in, wont even see this. Really . Oh, okay. That makes sense. But youre out here working. Yes, i have more seniority, but she is off, im working with her cousin. See, she is the smart one. Yep, i just wanted to tell you that. And it is kind of funny. Hi, karen. So thomas, i was thinking while that was running, mike will probably agree with me over in the Weather Center there is columbus mark, were like the good day philadelphia is like the columbus market of tv news. You can find everything and anything by watching this show. And were showing one of the vendors set up here now. So those nicknacks, where else could you find big wooden spoons today, but right here.

There is your special treat for you karen hepp viewers who miss karen, there is her cousin, looking big bags of dog food, everything you can get here. Look at the dog bowls, this is just a fantastic spot, thomas. We will be showing it to you throughout the day. Karen released official statement ive never met that man, dont know that man, no, just kidding. Wouldnt that be funny though . Were meeting her family this morning, distant cousin.
