Mountains. A live look at camelback resort. Pocono mountains officially said many hotels in the area are near capacity and tourism records could be broken this weekend. We have Live Team Coverage of the start of this memorial day weekend. Lets begin with meteorologist bill henley here with our forecast. Morning, vai. A warm, sunny day so far. Quick warmup at the shore. Temperatures inland have made it to the 80s, but theres a nice breeze blowing off the ocean. The ocean is still cooler, even at cape may where the ocean water temperatures are in the 60s. 81 degrees inland. Right at the beach, 72 at ocean city. Atlantic city, 68 degrees. Mays landing, already in the 80s. Were seeing similar conditions around the rest of the area. Satellite and radar show no showers. We did have activity first thing this morning in allentown, Lehigh Valley, berks county saw some rain. Its now out of the picture, but were watching the radar through this afternoon, theres a good possibility we will see some showers and thunderstorms develop. Not going to be widespread rainfall. Before those happen, well, plenty of sunshine to enjoy. More muggy today. Already 81 degrees in new jersey and interior new jersey. At the shore, the temperatures right on the beach will be climbing into the low 80s or upper 70s to low 80s. The High Temperatures, 86 in new jersey. At the shore, 78 degrees. Near 90 degrees for the Lehigh Valley and delaware, and 90 this afternoon for philadelphia. Well go through the futurecast hour by hour when im back later this half hour to show you where it looks like the showers will pop up. Vai. Thank you, bill. Time for a check on the roads with first alert traffic reporter katy zachry. I have to think the roads may have thinned out because people have gotten a jump already. We saw a little excess volume this morning, but its a mixed bag. First, a look outside. This is route 309 at the pennsylvania turnpike. If youre headed to the pocono mountains, 309 looks good. 22, youre clear. 78, youre clear as well and the northeast extension, everything is running smoothly. Thats if youre headed northbound. If youre headed to the shore, well get to that in a second. Unfortunately, the majors in pennsylvania are a little slow going right now. Not because of any crashes out there. Just because of extra volume were seeing. That is an increase from midmorning. 95 southbound, youre going to be tapping the brakes, especially as you make your way through Bridge Street where there was Police Department activity that just clears and also gerard avenue. Thats a 19minute trip between woodhaven and the vine. 76 and 476 seeing slow going as well because of volume. The 42 freeway if youre headed northbound into center city, philadelphia, youll spend the Holiday Weekend there, a quick trip to the walt whitman bridge. 295 southbound, free asand clea of any issues. Taking a live look outside, this is around the hammingten area. Route 73, were seeing more cars. No issues to report on the ac expressway or garden state expressway. Now would be a great time to get out if youre headed to the shore points. I looked at our cameras and everything looks good to go there. Thank you.

Pamela osborne has new details about the investigation and the victim. And pam, you talked to friends of the victim. They must be devastated. Vai, they absolutely are. People who live in this neighborhood know the victim as pastor ellie, and heres the type of person he was. He volunteered at this transitional housing Facility Ministry every single day. Thats what he was doing yesterday when he was trying to get back into his van, that is when he was struck and killed. He would take his shirt off his back and give it to people. This pastor is talking about his friend of ten years and his assistant pastor who everyone in this neighborhood knows as ellie. He came from preaching last night. Came from preaching. Every morning, he preached the word to us. He always encouraged us. Today, they have been encouraging one another after their dear froiend and mentor ws struck by a run away driver over night. The 57yearold had come to the soldiers of the Lord Ministry to drop residents off after preaching at a germantown church. The pastor even stayed long enough to help make sandwiches for residents. But he had to go home and get some sleep before work. He never made it. All of a sudden, somebody knock on the door and say that the man has been hit by a car. The pastor was struck as he tried to get in his van, which was parked in the 2100 block of front street. The driver never stopped. He comes in every day. He works with the boys. He brings the message of the word of god. He tries to make sure they go straight. And i just cant figure it out. I can tell you that police are in the area right now trying to talk to witnesses, see if theres any potential Surveillance Video. Police believe the driver was in a dark older model saab, possibly a late 90s early 2,000 model. They say the passenger side mirror of the vehicle should be heavily scraped. There may even be damage to the windshield of the car. Theyre asking anyone with information to give them a call. Reporting live in northwest philadelphia, pamela osborne, nbc10 news. Thank you.

Testimony is expected to resume tuesday in the corruption trial of congressman chaka fattah after a u. S. Senator took the stand yesterday. Pennsylvania senator bob casey testified he received a letter from fattah asking that lobbiest be considered for an ambassadorship. Casey said he didnt promote his bid to the white house and the lobbiest seemed frustrated when the appointment didnt happen. Prosecutored have accused fattah of taking bribes. Fattah denies anyway wrongdoing. Medical experts say they have found a first case of a drug resistant super bug in the united states. Doctors diagnosed a pennsylvania woman with having a new bacteria that certain antibiotics cannot fight. Researchers determine the woman carried a strain of e. Coli that is resistant to an antibiotic used as a last ditch effort to treat some superbugs. Officials say the case by itself is not cause for panic, but they worry the antibiotic resistant gene can spread to other types of bacteria that are already resistant to multiple drugs. Tom wolf said the state is working closely with the cdc and department of defense to come up with a response. We need to do a very comprehensive job protecting antibiotics so we can have them and our children can have them. Researchers have not said where in pennsylvania the woman is from. Meantime, the cdc is trying to figure out how the superbug got here. The woman had not traveled overseas in the past few months, and experts found it in pigs seven months ago and in a small number of People Living in china. It then popped up in europe, in africa, in canada before hitting the u. S. New jersey lawmakers pass ed several bills ahead of the Holiday Weekend, including one banning smoking on public beaches. The Senate Approved the measure banning smoking on public beaches and parks. The ban would allow towns to set aside up to 15 of a beach or park specifically for smoking. That exception would not apply to parking lots adjacent to public parks or beaches. The bill hits governor Chris Christies desk. He vetoed a similar ban in september of 2014. And the new Jersey Assembly and senate also passed a package of bills to help keep Atlantic City from running out of cash. The measures give the citys government up to five months to device a plan to balance its budget. Governor christie says hell decide quickly whether to sign or veto the legislation. The deal eliminates the threat of a state takeover at least for now. And the new Jersey Assembly passed legislation raising the states minimum wage to 15 an hour over the next five years. The bill now goes to the senate. The measure would raise the current wage from 8. 38 to 10. 10 an hour on january 1st. It also called for raising the wage by dlr 1. 25 a year, or 1 plus for inflation, whichever is greater. Up next, history in hiroshima. An emotional day overseas as president obama begame the first u.

Sitting president to visit the site of where america dropped an atomic bomb. Ron allen has more on the president s visit to hiroshima. President obama at hiroshimas peace park memorial. 71 years ago, on a bright, cloudless morning, death fell from the sky. The first atomic bomb hit an enemy target. Reflecting on the moment when the u. S. Dropped an atomic bomb and then three days later on nagasaki. Thats why we come to this place. We stand here in the middle of this city and force ourselves to imagine the moment the bomb fell. The president laying a wreath at a tomb bearing the names of 300,000 victims. Those who perished when the bombs fell, those who have died from the effects of the radiation in the decades since. Their souls speak to us. They ask us to look inward. Take stock of who we are. And what we might become. The president comforted survivors who over the years had hoped an american president would have come sooner to hear their nightmarish memories. President obama refused to second guess or apologize for president trumans decision to drop the bomb. He also warned of the still looming threat of nuclear war. And the need for the type of peace and reconciliation the u. S. And japan have achieved. President obama has considered visiting here since his first days in office. His impassioned remarkeds to perhaps an indication he feels time is running out as he tries to achieve his goal of moving the International Community towards a World Without nuclear weapons. Now back to you. Now to decision 2016. A day after hitting the magic number of delegates needed to clinch the gop nomination, donald trump has agreed to debate bernie sanders.

Trump for agreeing to a debate. I look forward to it, and i look forward to defeating him and becoming the democratic nominee. I would love to debate bernie. The problem with debating bernie, hes going to lose because honestly, his system is rigged just like our system is rigged. Sanders has challenged Hillary Clinton to a debate and she declined. This afternoon, former president bill clinton will campaign on behalf of his wife in north jersey. Hell speak to voters in middlesex county. New jerseys primary is just a week and a half away. The temperatures are taking off this morning, already 82 degrees at 11 00 this morning. Normal High Temperature, High Temperature, which usually occurs in the Late Afternoon hours, thats 77 degrees. Were already five degrees above that. Look at allentown, coatsville, trenton, mt. Holly, everybody in the 80s, even Atlantic City. These numbers for the most part are a bit warmer than yesterday. Two degrees warmer in philadelphia. Allentown is running a little behind yesterdays numbers as well as vineland and mt. Holly. Wilmington is three degrees warmer during the day today. Well see enough sunshine, the temperatures climbing to near 90 degrees inland, and it is not only hot, but also more humid, too, you can feel the humidity, and the warming trend, its riley started earlier in the week. Last weekend, the temperatures were in the 60s. Then we were in the 70s monday, into the 80s, and yesterday, we hit 90 degrees and back up to 90 again today. Some spots might even go a little higher this afternoon. If it doesnt happen today, it will happen tomorrow. And some changes ahead for this afternoon. We could see some scattered showers and possibly some thunderstorms. Right now, its dry for delaware and south jersey. Barely a cloud in the sky over philadelphia, trenton, and wilmington, but there are clouds farther north and west. Just northwest of the Lehigh Valley. We saw showers first thing this morning when we went on the air at 4 00 this morning, it was raining in allentown and easton. Those showers are out of the picture for the rest of the morning, but this afternoon, we may see popup showers during the heat of the day. And the futurecast showing at 3 00, a good chance well see some in new jersey and to the south, crossing delaware bay, and the western suburbs may see some of that activity. Thats a possibility as we go into the afternoon. Wont be an allday rainfall, and by 9 30 this evening, most of the area will be drying out. Keep an eye on the sky for a chance of those storms. Until they pop up, the temperatures keep climbing. 87, near 90 for bethlehem and easton, and a enough sunshine for readings in the low 90s in west chester. For philadelphia, less likely. Cant rule out a shower completely. 90 for fairmount, and in new jersey, clouds will be building. Keep an eye on the sky for a scattered shower. Not an allday rainfall. Mainly dry at the shore. Atlantic city and galloway into the low aths, and avalon will be in the upper 70s. Pretty good warmup for delaware, near 90 this afternoon for wilmington, partly sunny skies to mostly sunny skies for dover, and clouds building up late this afternoon will give us a chance of a shower. But most of the region is going to be seeing that warmup and dry conditions as we head into the Holiday Weekend. Rehoboth beach tomorrow, 77 degrees. A little cooler on sunday, and then a chance well see showers and possibly some thunderstorms for memorial day monday. Bethany beach, nice for tomorrow and sunday. Then that same possibility of showers and thunderstorms monday, and a threat thats going to be all day on memorial day. 78 degrees in ocean city, maryland. 75 on sunday, and a chance of some scattered showers and thunderstorms for memorial day. So those are the delaware beaches and into maryland. For inland areas, hot, humid. Keep an eye out for afternoon showers. Humid again tomorrow and hotter, up to 92 degrees. And near 90 on sunday. Then come memorial day, the clouds are hanging in there. And showers will be moving into philadelphia and most of the area, actually, 78 degrees. Clearing out for tuesday, wednesday, and thursday.

Every morning, he preached the word to us. He always encouraged us.

Happening this weekend, the Wells Fargo Center will hand over the keys to organizers of the Democratic National convention, as we take a live look right now from south philadelphia at the wells fargo. The work is already well under way, but as nbc10s Tracy Davidson reports, preparations will really kick into high gear over the next two months. Its like building a city within a city. Youve got to have the structure, what the house needs to look like at the end, and then you start digging the foundation. The foundation is set. The planning has been going on for more than a year. Its a well oiled machine that lea understands all too well. This is her second time leading the Democratic National convention. So she had a very specific criteria when came to choosing this years host city. Conventions are one part logistics. You know, because the city has be able to support this 50,000person startup that comes and plops down in the middle of your city. So youve got to have the instructure of the right street grids and the facilities and all of that. But the second part of that, who is the leadership in the city . How committed is the leadership in the city to the convention enterprise . We found both of those in philadelphia. The logistical infrastructure as well as leadership. And one more thing that truly put philadelphia over the top. Parking lots around wells fargo gave us a tremendous amount of flexibility and space to accommodate the media, to accommodate our satellite trucks, to accommodate the bus lots, the car lots, the mediacom pounds, and so we looked at all of us who plan logistics looked out of the window the first visit and said, ooh, parking lots. We stood there for about three minutes salivating over the parking lots. Over the next two months, her team will transform the Wells Fargo Center into a stage fit for a national audience, and shes in charge of it all, from the obvious pomp and circumstances to the most seemingly minute detail like the color of the carpet. Who knew there were so many shades of blue . You have to pick exactly the right blue so it shows up, and what it looks like on our color chart is not exactly what it looks like on television. You would be surprised how much time we spent on the correct shade of blue. While the Wells Fargo Center is taking shape, the dnc is working with the community to get them involved and leave a Lasting Legacy long after the convention is over. Ill take a closer look at that this afternoon on nbc10 starting at 4 00. Tracy davidson, nbc10 news. And happening now, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is giving its forecast of how many storms we can expect along the Atlantic Ocean this coming Hurricane Season.

Nihar janga from texas, and 13yearold Jairam Hathwar from new york will share the trophy after they both correctly spelled their final two words. Pretty cool.

Well take a closer look at the shore when we come back. Its tough to beat anyone who has not been effected in some way by cancer, so why not step up and take a stand against the disease . A community in south jersey is getting set to do just that. The American Cancer Societys relay for life for morristown needs your help, and here to tell us more, jason hicks and matthew hogan.

Jason, how did you get involved in the relay . Well, its amazing that when i go to the gym every day, i i see you every now and then. Yes. On the left, before i get to the gym, is the American Cancer Society building. I would say to myself, i would like to go in and volunteer my services. But i never did. So one day, im at my school, morristown high school, and i went to another club, the interact club, and asked if i could be a part of that. There was no room for me. But a student, allison sure, came to that same club and asked could she start relay for life here . And he got with me and said i have something you. So thats how i got started. It was an amazing situation. Whats amazing is you wanted to volunteer and they didnt have room for you. Right. Things turn out the way theyre supposed to. Matt, this is one of your biggest fundraisers, right . Yes. Tell us how the money is handled and divvied up and where it goes. The relay for Life Movement has raised more than 5 billion since it started in 1985. Our event has raised more than 50,000 in the last two years.
