going to see some of those clouds back to the west coming in during the day tomorrow. so it's not going to be a repeat of today, at least the way it's going to look, but temperatures will be fairly similar. maybe a couple degrees lower in some spots, because of the increased cloud cover. ed wind, 10 to 15 miles an hour out of the south. langhorn, 63. reading 66. you can see, got the cloudy symbol there. don't have the drops. the chance of rain is not zero but it's not high enough to be scaring you. we're putting those drops in the symbols here. long port and you can see here in the 50s.

night. this is the latest computer model. just in. and it does show a -- decent area of showers sunday night, but it races through and it is gone. it's just a matter of a couple of hours. by monday

shores, sunday watche warmer. the record for sunday is 90 degrees. set a few years ago in 2012. cooler at the shore with that 71 degrees. as we go with specifics through sunday, the sunrise services,

developing situations. always a pleasure. north korea here, always talking tough, but where do you think the situation stands and where do up think it's currently headed? >> well, i think at this particular time with our commander in chief, who's been in there about 90 days, i think some of the other world leaders are going to try and test, to see exactly what our response might be. i think right now you're playing to an audience, because they have a large birthday celebration coming up this weekend in north korea. and i think they play to their population and their populace, but i think they also have to be wary of their relationship with china, who provides about 80% of all of their goods. >> now, the u.s., we mentioned, used the mother of all bombs on isis in afghanistan just this week. do you think this sends a message to north korea, even vladimir putin in russia and do you think that was one of the president's goals here? >> i think absolutely, because we look at things at the stra strategic, operational and technical level. when you have a response as that as well as in syria you're sending a message to allies and potential enemies and adversaries we will have a proportionate response, and even if there needs to be something pre-emptive, we're not hesitant to do that as well. >> colonel, tensions seem to be high here. many concerned america could be entering another war, perhaps. do you think that could happen? >> when we talk about war, keith, a lot of times people think about boots on the ground. numbers of troops. smallest army since 1940, et cetera, but i think they also dismiss the wonderful navy, the wonderful air force, the wonderful marines we've got out there, and tomahawk missiles coming from our navy ships. the "carl vinson" aircraft carrier going to the area, and i think our air force, our tomahawks, as well as what we demonstrated with the air force the other day, i think gives us a united response across all fronts and not necessarily a war-like posture. >> all right. colonel rick kiernan, thank you for your insight. >> thank you. up next, one of wilmington's most beloved and tiniest restaurants celebrating a milestone
