Hi, vai. A gloomy start to the day, and we still have clouds around and you can see the top of the comcast building cut off and that means the clouds are low. We do have some showers moving through to philadelphia itself, but this is the last of it, back to the west its dry. Farther to the south it is dry and so this is the last of the rain. This is light, but its taking its time moving through over the next couple of hours. That rain will be moving out. Now we do have still a lot of cloud cover around as you can see here, but you may be seeing some breaks through the southern portions of the jersey shore later on during the day today. Here is the future cast, hour by hour. You can see some of this clearing taking place in south jersey, delaware, and nothing more than an isolated shower this afternoon. Most of us are just not going to get any rain this afternoon and again, conditions improving hour by hour as we go through the rest of the day. Its 59 now. Only 60 at the shore, so it is cool, but as you can see, the temperatures stay in the 60s across most of the area today, but you dont see those raindrops, the 71 degrees in parts of delaware and at the jersey shore, for example, cloudy skies most of the day, but later on, at least a little bit of sunshine.

Some raindrops on the lenses in delaware, also in parts of new jersey, but as we take a look at the radar, you will see improvement. Now its not going to improve a whole lot at the shore. They see a brightening of the skies and theres sunshine later today. Its not going to warm up a whole lot with the rain coming in off the ocean and 60 in Cape May Point and 69 in wholegate so its not going to be a beautiful, sunny day, but this afternoon its okay for the barbecue coming up. Dont give up on the outdoor activities, improve some for the shore during this afternoon. The next threat of rain comes in tomorrow morning and it will have to wait until wednesday for 80degree temperatures. Weve had temperatures well below normal for quite a while now. Today, not even reaching 70 degrees so theres the last of the rain showers moving through. These are light, as you can see on the radar except for right near trenton right now and little patches of light rain moving to the east so just be a little patient and we have dry air moving in from the west and also dry air will build up from the south and then we have a little gap until the next system comes in. So here we are during the afternoon. By 3 00, you can see weve got sunshine here in south jersey. Im not necessarily expecting a bright, Sunny Afternoon, but certainly better than it is right now. By 6 00, its not too bad and its dry. This evening, not too bad, nice and dry. A lot of clouds by tomorrow morning and low clouds and fog and we may see some showers and even some thunderstorms in the Morning Hours for the most part tomorrow, and then a lot of clouds, too. So its not necessarily going to be a Beautiful Day tomorrow. Another round of showers or storms tomorrow night. So what do we have here . We have temperatures in the 60s today with the rain ending. Tuesday, weve got some more showers and storms at the jersey shore. Its chilly tomorrow, but temperatures will be going up toward the rest of the week. Vai . All right. Thank you, glenn.

This new work examines the journey of africanamerican slaves from the time they were captured until they were freed. Its called one more river to cross, and joining us now to tell us more about the show is director james jackson. Thank you for joining us and also next to james is sarah osi scott, one of the Story Tellers of the show. Tell us a little bit how you took stories from the past from actual slaves and put it on the stage. Well, the script is written by Pulitzer Prize winner lynn notage and she takes the narratives from the writers project which is part of the wpa in the 1930s and combines them into an arc that creates an arc about slavery all of the way from the africans captured through the emancipation. What did you find most interesting about these stories . Whats amazing is that art. Usually when you have a historical document it doesnt connect, you know. There doesnt seem to be a whole theres just, sometimes, you know, the interest cant be held, and lynn did an excellent effort in making this into one, solid narrative. Osi tell us about your role in the show. Sure. My role as one of the Story Tellers, i am woman, number one. Theyre storytellers, although my character is listed as woman number one, i actually speak the voices of 13 individuals. So 13 former slaves who were interviewed during the federal writers project as lynn adapted the play, each character speaks the voice of multiple characters. And so its very multifacetted and its hard to really describe a specific character because i had the voice of so many. Whats it like, though, being the voice, right . Of so many former slaves because these stories are true accounts. Humbling. Its humbling and heavy. The gravity of this piece is so much that every day im grateful, and my mission is to give respect to those ancestors who went before me so that i can accurately portray their stories and highlight how important they were in the arc of history. James, let me ask you. How are people responding to it . It just opened this past weekend. Our review in the d. C. Metro arts was amazing. People, we hold talkbacks at the end just so that people can, you know, get a little further grip on the story, and people have been amazed by what were doing, you know . Its resonating with audiences. It is. Yeah. Great. Thank you so much, james and osi, well give viewers a recap of where they can catch the show. The show is performed thursdays through sunday until june 11th and all performances are at the Latvian Society and thats 531 north 7th street in philadelphia and for a link to more information tap on the nbc 10 mobile app. Thank you, katy.
