If youre skier or rider good conditions in the poconos this weekend with the fresh snow. Live look at big boulder right now people are enjoying the nice conditions. Temperatures right now above freezing with that fresh snow on the ground. Pretty good weekend up there. Look at the temperature change compared to yesterday at this time, were actually warmer. Doesnt seem like it but we are. Good five to 7 degrees warmer. So thats a sign of a warming trend coming up over the next two days or so. Still stubborn cloudiness over the Delaware Valley but once we get the clear skies in here that will allow temperatures to drop overnight down into the 30s but we do have that warming trend on the way. No precipitation over the ohio valley so thats whats headed our way, big area of High Pressure will keep us dry to kick off the new work week. Jet stream will head northward as we head towards monday, tuesday and wednesday so this allows a push of milder air in for the first half of the week as we approach the low 50s especially wednesday afternoon. Now, by the end of the week the jet kind of flattens out, maybe tries to dip farther south. That allows colder air to spill back in so temperatures may go actually below average by the end of the upcoming week. But clearing skies through the overnight hours, back to some sunshine on monday, probably wont see full sunshine but a mix of sun and clouds and well keep it dry. Clouds will thicken back up, though, later monday night into tuesday, maybe brief peaks of sunshine early tuesday but by afternoon to the evening hours we start to see some showers moving in later during the day tuesday. Nothing heavy at this point. The fast moving system thats out of here for wednesday, back to partly sunny skies. I think wednesday is going to be our warmest day of the upcoming week. Winds notice the direction still out of the northwest tomorrow so somewhat of a cool day but then theyll switch around out of the south tuesday and that starts to bring in milder air along with the rain chance. Temperatures tomorrow morning after a chilly start in the 30s. Rebounding into the mid to maybe even upper 40s monday afternoon and then on tuesday, upper 40s to near 50. However, though, theres going to be some showers around here at least through the second half of the day tuesday. For tonight partly cloudy skies, it is chilly. We drop to 35 degrees for center city. Little bit cooler in the suburbs. Light wind out of the northwest coming in at about five to 10 miles per hour. Pleasant day monday, sunshine and clouds, 46 for the High Temperature which is near average for this time of year. And of course tuesday at sunset hanukkah begins and check out that hanukkah forecast, mid 40s at sunset, cloudy skies. Watch out for some showers around. Here we go the extended forecast, mid 40s monday, upper 40s tuesday, showers around especially tuesday afternoon, tuesday night. We dry out for wednesday, near 50 degrees. Then we cool it down by the end of the week, partly sunny both thursday and friday with highs in the low 40s and then next weekend were going to watch a storm system that could bring a chance for some rain or snow. Again, a week away so its kind of hard to pinpoint exactly what will happen with that storm. Something to watch. Well give eight little time. Yeah. Thank you so much. We go to south philadelphia. Big game tonight. Beasley reece Lesley Van Arsdale live at the linc with a preview of tonights big matchup, eagles hive cowboys. Hey, guys. Natasha theres magic in the air. I have a report that says that the fans egged the cowboys lets talk about tony romo. A lost focus is going to be him. They did him up. What are you thinking. They d he wasnt really mobile in Arlington Texas but hes had a couple weeks to get ready and hes been better against the bears, he was last week but a couple of big hits. They sacked him four times there. Get to him hit him hard hit him early and then he becomes the same quarterback i think. Yes. Talking about quarterbacks mark sanchez, how important is it for him to have kind of a rebound game after last week . Lesley you know as well as i this is a quarterbackdriven league and it all starts with mark sanchez. But he will be helped out if he can get shady mccoy in gear. Dont forget shady had 159 yards there. So that helps a lot. Yeah. It will open up the passing game. You brought up shady. What do you think the cowboys can can do differently that will stop, negate what shady did against them last time. Beasley theyll bring for safetys up, put more people in the box but thats why if they do that mark sanchez has to make his throws, find jeremy maclin, go to Jordan Matthews and riley cooper and i think theyll be fine. All right and how important is it, we got to contain dez bryant. Dez bryant is the one scare. You saw what they did last time against demarco murray. They held him to 73 yards. They were fine. But dez bryant is as dangerous as any receiver in the National Football league. If they put the pass rush on tony romo, that will take care of itself. Now one of the guys that was really upset the last time they got together was jason witten because he didnt have the kind of game he normally has especially against the eagles. Thats a big problem. Well, it is but dont forget thats been the secret of their office salve line. Everyone says their offensive line is so good but one of the reasons is that theyve kept jason witten to block. Merrill reese thank you very much for the Merrill Reese report. Call a great game and thats it from the side line for lesley and beasley for eyewitness sports. All right you guys thank you so much.
