have more than one type of fire alarm in your house. mitch blacher continues his coverage from the nbc 10 kitchen. mitch? >> hey, guys, so statistically speaking more than 40% of home fires start right here in the kitchen. it's why it is so important to have working smoke alarms. this one uses ionization technology, one of the most popular in the united states, but the experts that we talked to say there's another option that may help protect your family. it only takes minutes for fire and smoke to consume a room. thursday fire and smoke killed for the 13th time this year. the home had no working smoke alarms. >> there you go. >> friday philadelphia fire crews installed dozens in this neighborhood. >> we installed the ionization smoke detectors. >> the most common and in 90% of

director. >> if you have a choice, get a combination. >> reporter: ionization is best at detecting smoke with heat, while to to electric smoke before fire. the alarms alerted us at different times as much as 50 seconds apart. you can see in this video why every second counts. >> once the fire started to flame, it was off to the races, we lost that room in a matter of seconds. >> reporter: in north philly, fire crews said now is the time to prepare an escape plan and make sure your smoke alarms work. know whether you have a photo electric or ionization smoke detector. think about this, if you

news. >> thanks so much. if you'd like to see more from the results of the tests, look for this story on nbc10.com and also on the nbc 10 app. oh, my god, let's get you out of here is what one woman was heard yelling right here. she was among these shoppers scrambling for deals at a walmart in georgia this morning. police officers recorded this video. ten of them ended up at the store after complaints came in. so the reason some people go a little or a lot crazy on black friday is because they want those great deals. >> and a little patience can pay off. we asked shoppers about the best bargain they got today. here's what they said. >> you always find a good deal this time of year on the k cosmetics and fragrances. today i saved $20 on chanel. >> i went to last call nieman marcus and the first 100 people got gift cards ranging from $10 to $1,000, and i got a gift card for $100 and got prada sunglasses. >> i really wanted a blanket scarf that are in and they are like $24 in the regular store and this one was only $9. >> that's a bargain, right? >> it is a bargain. i went out last night, didn't get the great deals. i didn't find those. >> maybe you need to be up early to find them. i don't know. shoppers who didn't brave the malls on thanksgiving were still busy buying online. >> that's what i need to do. more than $1 billion were spent between midnight and 5:00 p.m. yesterday, that's up 22% from last year. target ceo says online sales are off to a very strong start. target and walmart both launched all their black friday deals online a day early. so, sheena, if we didn't go shopping, those of us who didn't, still a great day to get out of the house. it was gorgeous. >> yeah, trying to get me to go shopping with you last night, i said no. i'm much more an online shopper. but yes, hopefully you're able to get outside today. we have warm air right through the eastern half of the country, at least the eastern seaboard, up even into new england, boston, 61 degrees right now. philadelphia 64, but look at the cold air on the back side of this. that is slowly going to try to move in, but we're not going to have temperatures like that for daytime highs. we're going to stay cooler for the second half of the weekend, but still well above normal. 62 in allentown, 63 in pottstown, 61 degrees in millville and allentown, did hit a record high temperature today. the average high is actually 52 degrees, so we're over 10 degrees above our normal this time of the year. clouds around, but we are nice and dry. we don't have the rain just yet, but it is back off to the west, so this rain will start to move in tomorrow. now for the areas north of philadelphia, you can expect it earlier in the day, farther south you are you can expect it tomorrow evening. for the rest of tonight if you have the friday night plans, mild by 7:00 p.m. near 60 degrees, 9:00 around 57 degrees, and by 11:00 p.m., clouds increasing, mid 50s, just not as cold overnight tonight. coming up a look at the timing of the rain for your weekend and cooler temperatures moving in. >> all right, sheena. we have new information this afternoon about a fight at a roller skating rink in newcastle county. cell phone cameras captured the chaos here in newark wednesday night. police arrested two teenaged girls after several fights both inside and outside the rink. no one was seriously hurt. there's no word this afternoon what actually started the fights. well, they made their debut weeks ago. now the new red pandas at the zoo have their new names. how they pay tribute to

17,000 people sent in suggestions for the names that were chosen. the names pay homage to two prominent philadelphia figures, betsy ross and benjamin franklin. >> love those white ears. >> aren't they beautiful? >> they are, and they are busy, too. speaking of busy. >> as the holiday shopping season begins, gift dpgiving isn everyone's mind. >> the american red cross is asking people to make sure donating blood is on the to do list, as well. a lot of donors don't make time to give blood or platelets. >> this is a very challenging time for us collecting blood. people are traveling, there's holiday parties, winter weather is not here yet, but it's coming. that inevitably causes cancellations of blood drives and, of course, seasonal illnesses like the flu, so we really want to encourage people to give something that means something and donate blood to save lives. >> so here's some motivation as a token of thanks. those who come out to give blood and platelets through november 25th through the 29th you're going to get a gift, a red cross mixing spoon and includes recipes from celebrity chefs. well, coming up we have warm temperatures for the rest of tonight. then some rain for part of your weekend. i'll show you the timing coming up. this is nbc 10 news. >> didn't think about this really, but it does make sense. there's another industry cashing in on black friday, it's a very busy day for plumbers. and that's because preparing and cleaning up all that turkey day feast sends a lot of food and scraps down the drain and down the garbage disposal and i guess also down the toilet. some plumbing experts say the number of calls doubles the day after thanksgiving. winter can also be a worrisome time of year for home owners who can't afford to pay energy bills or have outdated heaters, but one philadelphia-based organization is helping thousands stay warm this season and nbc 10 is supporting its efforts. >> energy coordinating agency is one of the groups in our 21st century solutions contest. the program awards grant money to nonprofits making a difference in our community. >> nbc 10's rosemary connors explains how eca is doing just that. >> reporter: in

working on a special project, a comprehensive approach to home weatherization. eca's goal -- >> durable, safe, highly energy efficient, and healthy home. >> reporter: liz robinson is the executive director of the 30-year-old nonprofit based in kensington that does work in 10,000 homes every year. >> whether tight windows, looks like they are new. >> yes, yes, had to replace the windows here on the side and the rear. >> reporter: plus, eca's crews put up new yellow siding here. >> what we're trying to do is solve the energy problems for low income people so they don't get caught in the cycle of bill payment, delinquency, and termination. >> 1957, i was 9 years old when i moved here. add that up. >> reporter: and you want to stay here. >> yes, yes. >> reporter: gloria graham is the recipient of eca's work. she proudly shows off the new energy efficient gas heater in her basement. it replaces the others that cost about $400 a month to heat her home. >> i think it's awesome, very good. work is getting done i couldn't have imagined, because i'm on a very low income monthly check. and i could never have done it. >> reporter: rosemary connors, nbc 10 news. now your nbc 10 first alert weather with meteorologist sheena parveen. >> well, warm day today to end out your week. hopefully you're able to enjoy it, because tomorrow we have some rain moving in and some cooler temperatures. some areas did hit record highs today, allentown and reading, i'll show you that in a second. otherwise we have clouds increasing and this will lead to a cloudy saturday with showers around, even for part of the area early sunday, and then cooler temperatures start to move in the second half of your weekend. right now still in the 60s most of the area, 62 allentown, 63 reading and pottstown, 64 still in philadelphia. low 60s south jersey and delaware, and this is very high above where we should be this time of year. the average high is 52 degrees. today we got to 66 in philadelphia. tomorrow we should be around 60. and then cooler sunday around 53 degrees. little below normal for monday around 49 for the high temperature. so we still stay mild tomorrow, but that's going to come with some showers. as far as today was concerned, allentown and reading both hit 65 degrees. that's a record high for those areas. poconos got close, even atlantic city, philadelphia not so much, but we were still unseasonably warm. now we're watching the rain, it's mostly back off to our west approaching slowly, but ahead we have a lot of cloud cover, so the clouds will be moving in tonight. this is going to be keeping us warmer through the overnight hours, so not cold overnight tonight. many areas staying in the mid to upper 40s and the rain moving in for tomorrow. we stay warm for the rest of the afternoon and evening. clouds move in, but we do stay dry overnight tonight. 7:00 tomorrow morning, showers over the poconos, moving into the lehigh valley and there you see the cold front bringing the rain. by tomorrow afternoon, showers mostly north of philadelphia, but then sliding to the south, rain right around 9:00 p.m. for the philadelphia area, even south jersey and delaware and this area is going to keep moving south. by sunday we start to see clearing from north to south and going to last through the day. cooler temperatures move in behind the rain, so you'll notice that as we go into sunday and especially into monday. for tonight, though, not as cold, clouds increasing, mid to upper 40s. tomorrow cloudy day, temperatures around 60 degrees, so still above
