heat. he joins us live from camden. >> randy, these are not conditions where you want to be outside too long, unless you're really prepared for it. >> reporter: yeah, you're going to need a few things. you'll need a lot of water and you'll want some shade. we've got that in the tree above me. we're at the music festival. they've got quite a bit of beer and ice cream. as we're expecting temperatures this weekend here to approach 100 degrees. a sound check under the scorching hot sun. fans warming up while trying their best to cool down. playing a mix of soul and cajun country are touring here from the gulf coast. >> feels like home. nice and hot and humid. we like it. >> reporter: across the river and down the turnpike, families in pottstown hit the splash park. >> i bet you it would be really, really hot. >> reporter: jam packed when it opened here this morning. and it's only getting hotter into the weekend. >> we'll find a pool. find a pool or stay in air conditioning. >> reporter: down the shore, big crowds trying to escape the heat wave. but when it gets this hot, a sea breeze is not helping. >> take a long walk by the water and go in the ocean a lot, i guess. pretty much all you can do. >> reporter: not everybody can keep cool in weather like this. with the sun shining, the car wash is bustling with workers breaking into a sweat. just minutes after standing outside. >> no matter the temperature, we're out here every day doing our work. >> reporter: the big shout-out to anybody working outside today. that includes all of the vendors and volunteers, plus all the police and medical personnel keeping people safe here. and sheena, they all tell me they're expecting and ready for even hotter temperatures tomorrow. >> yes, randy, that's right. even hotter temperatures tomorrow. more humidity tomorrow. it's going to feel hotter tomorrow. it feels way hotter today. so if you walked outside today and you felt all that humidity, that is in part giving us the dangerous heat from today until monday. even into tuesday of next week. this is a prolonged heat wave. here's a live look at rehoboth. nice sky conditions, but it is hot and humid. if you look at the seven-day at the bottom of the screen, we've outlined the next four consecutive days in red. that's because the first alert is going to last for all of those days. it's because of the dangerous heat. fo par, new jersey, and delaware. temperatures will be dangerously hot from now until about tuesday. and with the humidity combined with the 90-degree temperatures, it's going to feel anywhere from 100 to 105 degrees. we're in the 90s right now. we'll take a look at the new jersey neighborhoods. it is really heating up today. washington township 90 degrees. medford 94 degrees. lumberton, 93. hamilton township, 92 degrees. when you factor in the humidity, feels close to 100. this is the future feels-like temperature. so as we go into your saturday, look at these numbers before lunchtime tomorrow. we're talking about 11:00 a.m., 11:30, already feeling like the mid to upper 90s. dover could be feeling around 100 degrees by 11:30 tomorrow morning. we could be feeling around the mid-90s in philadelphia. look at this, quickly we start to feel around 105. and this particular model showing wilmington at 108 degrees for that feels-like temperature, by 4:30 tomorrow afternoon. closer to the shore you'll be feeling around the mid-90s. a very hot day again tomorrow. it's going to feel a little bit hotter than today, that's going to last for sunday and even for your monday. so again, a prolonged heat wave, dangerous heat. very little in the way of rain relief. we, in fact, have nothing around right now. showers are trying to approach washington, but they're really dying out. not a lot of moisture in the atmosphere right now. but there is a lot of humidity. that's going to stick around across the entire weekend. we're going to stay fairly dry with all this heat in place. so don't expect rain relief. not until about monday afternoon. neighborhood temperatures for tomorrow, fairmont feeling closer to 105. lehigh valley, 96 degrees. mostly sunny and humid. if you're in new jersey, 97 degrees. along the shore expect the low 90s. galloway township 98 degrees possibly. dover coming in at 97 as well as wilmington. if you're heading to the shore this weekend, it's a good place to be. you can cool off in the water. but temperatures are going to be hot, right around 90 degrees. avalon, margate, rehoboth beach could be in the mid-90s possibly. atlantic city coming in in the low 90s. uv index is going to be high this weekend. sunburn in about 10 to 15 minutes. and you want to stay hydrated. so this is the type of weather where you want to avoid several hours outside. you want to stay in the shade. if you have to be outside, stay hydrated, stay cool. check on the elderly, and never leave children or animals in the car. sunday, 97, monday we could be approaching 100 degrees. needless to say, with all the heat around, and the dangerous heat because of the humidity, these are near or breaking record temperatures, too. by tuesday, 95 degrees. wednesday 94. this is a prolonged heat wave like i've been mentioning. thursday and friday we have a better chance of showers developing. especially afternoon thunderstorms. the temperatures should still be around 90 degrees. we really have no break in the forecast as you can see. 90s will pretty much stick around. this weekend is going to be the hottest of it, and leading into next week. so like we have been really stressing, this is potentially dangerous heat. that's why we want to unfortunately keep reminding people don't leave your children in the car, don't leave animals in the car. we have clear the shelters pet adoption event coming up tomorrow morning. if you're a firsttime pet owner and adopter, you're probably going to want to run to the pet store after you get the animals. do not leave them in the car. take them home first. way too hot. a lot of people think animals can handle it. they cannot. as well as children cannot. unfortunately we have to keep reminding people of that. >> and check on the elderly, too, in the hot temperatures. >> yes. and if you're going to be hot outside yourself, stay hydrated. >> 10 to 15 minutes, that's it. >> sunburn u yeah. >> sheena, thank you so much. from the first alert now to a high alert. >> people in one tiny town are told not to drink the water because of the unusual ingredients found in it. how it got there is a mystery. either way, this may be a first when it comes to water. plus -- >> it's important in playing the pokemon thing. >> busted. new evidence that no one is immune to that pokemon craze. >> oh, boy. i don't want to look at this. rattlesnake warning in new jersey. one thing i cannot stand. that story ahead. here's a look at the closing bell on wall street, where stocks closed higher for the fourth straight week. look at those numbers. >> i can look. a marijuana mystery after the water supply is contaminated with thc, that's the intoxicating chemical of pot. southeast of denver, warning people not to shower or drink the town's well water. they're not aware of the source since marijuana is legal in the town. authorities suspect someone may have tainted the town's well water system. most of us have probably been caught -- here you go -- being on our phones. if so, we're doing it for work, sending out important tweets. >> that's what we're doing, yeah. one reporter's mistake is trending everywhere. he was caught playing pokemon go during a briefing at the state department. >> i think it's important, a reminder -- you're playing the pokemon thing right there, aren't you? is why we will continue to work with our coalition partners. did you get one? >> no. >> my goodness, that is embarrassing. john kirby jokingly apologized for the bad signal that kept the reporter from catching a pokemon. this happened yesterday during an isis briefing. if you're not familiar, the pokemon go game has been everywhere the last two weeks. the scavenger hunt looking for characters in the real world. we're not anchoring while playing pokemon go. >> never. anywhere, for that matter. let's transition to outside these walls. the heat, it has arrived. it can be dangerous. >> it is expected to be the hottest stretch of weather we've had all weather. >> you'll be pokemon go outside in this, it's way too hot. even hotter as we go into tomorrow. the weekend forecast is
