Not much happening right now. We will go up to the Lehigh Valley where it is overcast, kind of used to these conditions every morning. Little dreary, little bit of sprinkle activity possible depending where you are and we should see a little sunshine probably later this morning in the afternoon, once the warm front finally moves on through but maybe a little sun that will destabilize atmosphere and increase our chances for stronger then are storms later today.

Tomorrow we are back to some sunshine and feeling more pleasant, still warm and then on tuesday, another spotty showers possible late in the day as secondary cold front moves through and that drops the temperatures for end of the week. The entire area up to the mountains under a enhanced threat for severe storms. That means up to 30 percent chance later this afternoon. Main threats will be heavy rain, high wind, lightening, and moderate chance for hail and maybe isolated tornado in that zone but that is all the way down from georgia to the poconos. Winds aloft conducive maybe to spawn a brief isolated tornado. Through noon time not much happening. Showers and storms in the afternoon.

Three on your side with what you need to know so you dont become a victim up next. And three on your side consumer reporter jim donovan wants you to be aware as summer temperatures heat up so will election scams. Reporter in a president ial Election Year it seems Everyone Wants your vote, donation or to ask your political opinion. So experts adam levin believes. A little paranoia is not such a bad thing. Because election scams pop up, too. Like the reregistration, scam. Thinks where you get a phone call, presumably from the board of elections where they tell you because of your failure to vote in the prior election, your name has been removed from the voter rolls. Reporter levin warns never give out personal information over phone, reach out instead to your county Election Office if you suspect a problem. Scam number two, the survey scam. Were conducting a Political Survey and we will give you a prize for participating. When finished asking our questions, there will be some taxes, handling charges, so we will need your credit card information. Reporter prizes are not given out by legitimate polling organizations so just hang up. The third scam involves vote by phone. That is where they call you and say great news, under a new law in this state you can vote by phone but in order to get you set up we need some of your information. Reporter simply put. No such thing as vote by phone. Reporter finally donation scam. So you think that the Political Party is calling you or that a specific Candidates Campaign is calling you but are and they are asking to you donate. The only problem is they may not be. Reporter if you feel compelled to donate to the candidate or political cause dont give your banking information over the phone. Instead use a credit card and official Campaign Web Site or mail a check into a verified campaign headquarters. Reporting for three on your side, im jim donovan.

In the boxing world he was self pre claim greatest, spending his entire career living up to the billing. He could float like a butterfly and sting like a bee but it was his influence outside, his words not punches, his actions, not just knock out that made him greatest of all time. Fellow boxer Bernard Hopkins said he didnt always agree with him but you have to respect him because he was a cut above the rest. He was a face for the sport. I think what ray robinson did for the sport, what joe frazier did for the sport. Everybody contributed to the sport but what he did to the sport to get the sport recognized that is what i can tell you. With all he did with the sport is what he is doing right now even when he is passed away, talking about it. Muhammad ali last for the in 1981, 35 years later his greatness in and out of the ring still shapes todays athletes. Nba star step curry and lebron james talked about what ali meant to him. Ali was the example of how you should do what you believe no matter what people say and look at him as a sense of confidence in that regard for sure. He stood up for so many dip rent times when it was so difficult for African Americans to even walk in the streets and for an athlete like myself today without muhammad ali i wouldnt be sitting up here talking in front of you guys.
