How is it doing outside . You agree . Well have another gorgeous day today. If you like the warm temperatures, if you like the sunshine, youre in for another amazing day today. Talking mid 80s, so lets look where our temperatures are with the live neighborhood network, 55 in millville, 58 doylestown, bensalem coming in at 59 degrees. This is what you call practically perfect today, folks. Sunny skies, woman temperatures, low humidity, light wind. You dont get much better than this. Live look at storm scan3, see how clear we are on the east coast. See disturbance off to the west, cold front tracking across, that will be the thing that changes our temperatures latter half of the weekend. But today oh, today. It is all about the sunshine.

So our headlines are more 80s, more sunshine, toasty temperatures into the weekend, clouds in on sunday, that he is when we start to see the temperatures go back to seasonable.

Dont think theyll be exchanging christmas cards this year, and the federalist so the and other issues that tend to be catnip to Judiciary Committee members and the reporters who cover them but probably not broadly interesting to the rest of the elect rorate. I saw ted cruz noticed the posters being put outside. In this time of pandemic, we have a lot less politics you would normally see in the halls of congress or outside the capitol. What have you observed . Its interesting, the capitol complex is still closed, no visitors or protesters here. The kavanaugh confirmation, the gorsuch confirmation, you had huge crowds in the hallways, disruptions in the room sometimes. None that have is here. You can see the room is far more empty than it normally is. You heard cruz mention a little bit of a heated back and forth with durbin, there arent a lot of people in the room because there is a pandemic going on and a lot of people go back to their offices to watch when theyre not speaking.
