today, but you do need to be prepared for some spotty showers and thunderstorms that will move through the area. you'll also need to be prepared for temperatures that are going to boost up into the 80s. humidity that's going to boost up, kind of a sticky day, overall. 0 70 in wilmington. 67 in millville and 69 in atlantic city. philadelphia is at 69 degrees, as well. and we're at 68 in allentown. not a bad start. temperatures feel pretty good right now, but you already are noticing that humidity. you can kind of feel the moisture in the air. you're also going to notice right now some misting outside, some fogginess. and now we actually see that there are some spotty severe thunderstorms that are starting to develop over parts of delaware. a lot of us starting to skip the bay and move into parts of south jersey, cape may county starting to see a little rain moving through. when you see the yellows and oranges, that indicates a little heavier rain, an isolated thunderstorm may start to pop. but overall, not seeing any lightning associated with any of the cells developing this morning. look at our temperature trend as we go through the rest of the day in philadelphia. going from the low 70s up to around the low to mid-80s. when we get temperatures that warm, in the afternoon, we could see some thunderstorms fire off, because we have plenty of moisture to tap into, and that moisture goes nowhere. so we'll continue with that chance of storms for your father's day and especially monday. we'll talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. >> we'll be watching it. all right, thank you, krystal. three hours from now, the jury will resume their deliberations in the bill cosby sexual assault trial in montgomery county. this saturday session will be their sixth day of trying to reach a verdict. nbc 10 ease cydney long is live at the courthouse in norristown to tell us more about the day ahead. cydney? >> reporter: rosemary, this trial has been an exhaustive task for this jury. they have already put in 52 hours of deliberations this week. but despite demands for a mistrial, which the jury does not know about, the judge is allowing them to press on and on a day when courthouses are usually locked. so they will return at 9:00 this morning on this day before father's day. cosby, one of america's favorite dads spoke out for the first time during his trial. >> mr. cosby, how are you feeling? >> i just -- i just want to wish all of the fathers a happy father's day and i want to thank you the jury for their long day. >> for the sixth straight day, jurors will work to reach a verdict in the bill cosby sexual assault trial. is he guilty of the crime or was the 2004 encounter between cosby and then-friend, andrea constand, consensual? that is the task and it's come with 52 hours of deliberations, as well as numerous questions for testimony to be re-read. we asked retired new jersey superior court judge, michael doneio, after being deadlocked on thursday, his take on how this story must be feeling at this time. >> they are willing to do whatever it takes to get to a verdict in this case. they're not willing to throw in the towel unless they have unturned every loose leaf, every "i," every "t" crossed. their tenacity is unbelievable. >> reporter: on friday, jurors asked for five things. among them, the definition of reasonable doubt, along with testimony of constand's police officer brother-in-law from canada, who initially counseled her and her family to call authorities. it's unclear just how long this judge will allow jurors to weigh the evidence, considering it is a weekend, so the big question is on day six, will there be some consensus? can this jury reach a unanimous decision on one count, on two, or all three of them, will we have a verdict? we will, of course, keep you posted online and on-air. that is the very latest from montgomery county courthouse here in norristown. i'm cydney long. rosemary, back to you. >> with bated breath. thank you, cyd. you can count on nbc 10 right here on the air this morning to bring you the jury's decision the moment it happens, if it happens. we'll also have an letter on the nbc 10 app. developing overseas this morning, seven u.s. sailors are missing following a collision between a navy destroyer and a merchant ship. a massive search is now onway. the "uss fitzgerald" suffered heavy damage on the right side after the crash. part of the destroyer then flooded, but it's not in danger of sinking. the ship's commanding officer along with two other crew members were injured, airlifted to a hospital. the navy along with the japanese coast guard have launched a widespread search nor the missing sailors. president trump has been briefed on this crash and is monitoring the situation. new overnight, police are trying to track down a woman who stabbed another woman. the 27-year-old was stabbed one time in the back in the fair hill section of north philly. this happened earlier this morning. the victim went to temple hospital. she is expected to survive. the search has been suspended for two teens missing in the waters down the shore. 16-year-old kaliyah hand of atlantic city and ramon quinn disappeared in the ocean in atlantic city late thursday. after a full day of searching yesterday, there was no sign of the teens. their families tell us they're heartbroken. >> fathom losing your child, especially at that young of an age. it hurts. >> officials tell us kaliyah hand got caught in a rip current half an hour after lifeguards went off-duty. quinn tried to save her. now to a new discovery in the attack on members of congress this week. investigators say they've uncovered a chilling list made by the gunman who opened fire at the congressional baseball practice. the list contains the names of house republicans. according to authorities, james hodgkinson had the list with him, as he shot at members of congress in alexandria, virginia, on wednesday. the list included congressman trent franks of arizona, jeff duncan of south carolina, mo brooks, of alabama, and a few others who have not yet been named or revealed. police shot and killed hodgkinson during the attack. house majority whip steve scalise was critically wounded in the shooting. doctors say, quote, an excellent recovery is a good possibility wednesd, end quote. but they added that scalise will need more surgeries and rehabilitation. scalise remains in critical condition but is improving. let's stay in washington. there is a call to unite as concern grows that president trump could fire the top investigator in the russia probe. just yesterday, the top democrat on the house intelligence committee asked congress to stop the president if he tries to remove special counsel, robert mueller. this all comes as president trump has hired another lawyer to deal with the russia investigation. john dowd joins trump's other high-profile attorney, marc kasowitz. dowd has represented other politicians, including john mccain. president trump seemed to acknowledge yesterday that he is under federal investigation, tweeting, "after seven months of investigations and committee hearings about my collusion with the russians, nobody has been able to show any proof. sad." later, he lashed out at deputy attorney general rod rosenstein saying, "i am being investigated for firing the fbi director by the man who told me told me to fire the fbi director. witch hunt." that, of course, is a reference to the president's firing of now former fbi director, james comey. meantime, the president's latest financial disclosures has become public and it shows he earned nearly $595 million through january 2016 through april of this year, half a billion dollars, that is. $20 million of that came from revenue from his new home in washington. that's been the focus of concern over foreign payments. $19 million came from his golf club in bedminster, new jersey. 6:08 right now on this saturday. coming up, protesters take to the streets after a jury finds a minnesota police officer not guilty in the shooting death of a black driver

some showers and thunderstorms develop. all of us have cloudy conditions, a lot of us have some fog out there this morning. take a look at delaware, hopping the bay into parts of south jersey. a couple little cells here, you see the reds and oranges near north of middletown and just to the east of smyrna. this is starting to track right on into parts of salem, cumberland county, and it's going to continue tracking along to the northeast. follow that red arrow, and that starts to move closer and closer to camden county, as well. we've got a couple of cells that are developing right now. this is going to continue for the morning hours. some scattered thunderstorms are possible, with some spotty showers, as well. what that means is, throughout today, you need to umbrella handy, but you don't have to cancel all of your plans. it's not a washout. let's go through the next few hours. 8:30, we could see another round of some scattered showers and thunderstorms progressing right through philadelphia, trenton, wilmington, as well. even up to allentown and reading. then into the afternoon, 5:30, some spotty storms developing. could see a scattered thunderstorms yet again. i

then we've got tomorrow, your father's day. we'll talk more about that in just a few minutes. how about those folks that just hop from music festival to music festival every summer? aren't you a

moms, we send our kids out into the world, full of hope. and we don't want something like meningitis b getting in their way. meningococcal group b disease, or meningitis b, is real. bexsero is a vaccine to help prevent meningitis b in 10 to 25 year olds. even if meningitis b is uncommon, that's not a chance we're willing to take. meningitis b is different from the meningitis most teens were probably vaccinated against when younger. we're getting the word out against meningitis b. our teens are getting bexsero. bexsero should not be given if you had a severe allergic reaction after a previous dose. most common side effects are pain, redness or hardness at the injection site; muscle pain; fatigue; headache; nausea; and joint pain. bexsero may not protect all individuals. tell your healthcare professional if you're pregnant or if you have received any other meningitis b vaccines. ask your healthcare professional about the risks and benefits of bexsero and if vaccination with bexsero is right for your teen. moms, we can't wait. at this hour, all is calm on the streets of st. paul, minnesota. but as you can see overnight, protests erupted following the not guilty verdict of a police officer in the shooting death of a black driver. officer jeronimo yanez was cleared yesterday in the shooting of philando castile. hundreds of protesters took to the streets and even blocked traffic on a highway in st. paul. police arrested 18 of those protesters. it took jurors four days of deliberations before finding the officer not guilty of manslaughter. last july, castile was shot five times during a traffic stop for a broken taillight. the story made national headlines when his girlfriend streamed the aftermath on facebook. castile was shot seconds after he told the officer he was carrying a gun and had a permit. yanez has said he believed castile was reaching for the weapon. >> my son loved this city and this city killed my son. and the murderer gets away. >> them jurors did not have enough human empathy and a conscience to just do the right thing. >> the city of st. anthony, minnesota, now says it will dismiss yanez. that's where he's been an officer, even though he was acquitted in the shooting. eagles wide receiver, tory smith, is speaking out against the officer's acquittal. he tweeted, "it's beating a dead horse, but don't talk to me how offensive kap taking a knee was if you aren't offended by philando castile case." smith's tweet referenced 49ers quarterback colin kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem last season in protest of these police-involved incidents. okay. we've got some news now from our lehigh valley bureau. what started as a church fund-raiser ended with a visit from the bomb squad. someone donated a box of military supplies to a yard sale and one item appeared to be a detonator. so the bomb squad came out to remove it yesterday afternoon. authorities didn't think it was dangerous, but had the bomb squad there out of an abundance of caution. let's head over to western skpen pennsylvania and pittsburgh. this will car destroyed when it caught fire yesterday afternoon. fortunately, no one was inside the car. the car was stranded in those floodwaters. third straight day of flooding yesterday, caused by heavy rain and they've got more rain expected this weekend. >> announcer: now your nbc 10 first alert weather. >> hate to see video like that. we'll have our own round of heavier rain, but that doesn't come until monday bhap . cloudy conditions across the board, scattered showers and thunderstorms just to the north of us and this area of thunderstorms and spot showers that are trying to develop that have moved through delaware and trying to hit south jersey. stretching from norris river to cape may, that's the heavier rain that's falling, moving kind of slowly, about 25 miles per hour. so it's starting to pass through vineland, get into parts of camden and gloucester county and this is going to continue moving along to the northeast. there's plenty of moisture out there, so it will probably hold together. we should keep with a few of these spot storms moving along as we go through the next several hours of your morning. wouldn't even be surprised if one of these pops over philadelphia for a period of a little heavier rain. nothing long-lasting, though, through the morning hours or in the afternoon, when we may see some scattered thunderstorms, as well. take a look at the temperatures, up to 86 this afternoon in center city and 83 in summerton. lansdale, you're at 84. right near 80 degrees in the lehigh valley. low to mid-80s are possible in new jersey, vorhees at 84. right around to mid- to upper 70s, i believe, at the jersey shore. a little inland, could be a bit warmer. and in delaware, 83 for smyrna. wilmington, up to 86 degrees. now let's talk father's day. today, we will see those 80s and it will be humid. tomorrow, we will see the 80s through around 90 degrees in the afternoon. and it will be even more humid. so in the morning hours, 76 degrees, humid and some fog likely. staying in the humid conditions at 84 degrees, by 11:00 a.m. by 2:00 in the afternoon, 88 for your temperature. steamy now, some of us right near 90 degrees. and by 5:00 p.m., an isolated thunderstorm is possible. so, through the day, we stay cloudy, but i don't think we'll see a ton of rain tomorrow, just some isolate t to scattered storms popping up in the late part of the day. still hot and humid out there. not the best day to be outside with dad. even worse day to be outside with dad will be your monday. we're starting in the morning hours where hours, where we may start to see pockets of heavier rain move through. late morning to early afternoon is when we see the heavier rain start to move in. by 6:00, we've got spotty thunderstorms developing. and even into the tonight, as a cold front passing us, we are looking at heavy rain and some thunderstorms development. this thunderstorm development could be on the severe side of things. that's when you start to see larger hail. winds that can cause damage and flooding concerns. take a look here at our severe thunderstorm outlook risk. now, this is still a couple days out, but we are in the enhanced zone for at least half of our viewing area. that means there is a better potential for us to see those strong-to-severe storms that may lead to damage. we will have a close eye on this for your monday. we'll take a look at your ten-day on 10 coming up in the next half hour. ♪ there may be some showers today at the

along with testimony of constand's police officer brother-in-law from canada, who initially counseled her and her family to call authorities. it's unclear just how long this judge will allow jurors to

grows that president trump could fire the top investigator in the russia probe. just yesterday, the top democrat on the house intelligence committee asked congress to stop the president if he tries to remove special counsel, robert mueller. this all comes as president trump has hired another lawyer to deal with the russia investigation. john dowd joins trump's other high-profile attorney, marc kasowitz. dowd has represented other politicians, including john mccain. president trump seemed to acknowledge yesterday that he is under federal investigation, tweeting, "after seven months of investigations and committee hearings about my collusion with the russians, nobody has been able to show any proof. sad." later, he lashed out at deputy attorney general rod rosenstein saying, "i am being investigated for firing the fbi director by the man who told me told me to fire the fbi director. witch hunt." that, of course, is a reference to the president's firing of now former fbi director, james comey. meantime, the president's latest financial disclosures has become public and it shows he earned nearly $595 million through january 2016 through april of this year, half a

a police officer in the shooting death of a black driver. officer jeronimo yanez was cleared yesterday in the shooting of philando castile. hundreds of protesters took to the streets and even blocked traffic on a highway in st. paul. police arrested 18 of those protesters. it took jurors four days of deliberations before finding the officer not guilty of manslaughter. last july, castile was shot five times during a traffic stop for a broken taillight. the story made national headlines when his girlfriend streamed the aftermath on facebook. castile was shot seconds after he told the officer he was carrying a gun and had a permit. yanez has said he believed castile was reaching for the weapon. >> my son loved this city and this city killed my son. and the murderer gets away. >> them jurors did not have enough human empathy and a conscience to just do the right thing. >> the city of st. anthony, minnesota, now says it will dismiss yanez. that's where he's been an officer, even though he was acquitted in the shooting. eagles wide receiver, tory smith, is speaking out against the officer's acquittal. he tweeted, "it's beating a dead horse, but don't talk to me how offensive kap taking a knee was if you aren't offended by philando castile case." smith's tweet referenced 49ers quarterback colin kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem last season in protest of these police-involved incidents. okay. we've got some news now from our lehigh valley bureau. what started as a church fund-raiser ended with a visit from the bomb squad. someone donated a box of military

just to the north of us and this area of thunderstorms and spot showers that are trying to develop that have moved through delaware and trying to hit south jersey. stretching from norris river to cape may, that's the heavier rain that's falling, moving kind of slowly, about 25 miles per hour. so it's starting to pass through vineland, get into parts of camden and gloucester county and this is going to continue moving along to the northeast. there's plenty of moisture out there, so it will probably hold together. we should keep with a few of these spot storms moving along as we go through the next several hours of your morning. wouldn't even be surprised if one of these pops over philadelphia for a period of a little heavier rain. nothing long-lasting, though, through the morning hours or in the afternoon, when we may see some scattered thunderstorms, as well. take a look at the temperatures, up to 86 this afternoon in center city and 83 in summerton. lansdale, you're at 84. right near 80 degrees in the lehigh valley. low to mid-80s are possible in new jersey, vorhees at 84. right around to mid- to upper 70s, i believe, at the jersey shore. a little inland, could be a bit warmer. and in delaware, 83 for smyrna. wilmington, up to 86 degrees. now let's talk father's day. today, we will see those 80s and it will be humid. tomorrow, we will see the 80s through around 90 degrees in the afternoon. and it will be even more humid. so in the morning hours, 76 degrees, humid and some fog likely. staying in the humid conditions at 84 degrees, by 11:00 a.m. by 2:00 in the afternoon, 88 for your temperature. steamy now, some of us right near 90 degrees. and by 5:00 p.m., an isolated thunderstorm is possible. so, through the day, we stay cloudy, but i don't think we'll see a ton of

rain start to move in. by 6:00, we've got spotty thunderstorms developing. and even into the tonight, as a cold front passing us, we are looking at heavy rain and some thunderstorms development. this thunderstorm development could be on the severe side of things. that's when you start to see larger hail. winds that can cause damage and flooding concerns. take a look here at our severe thunderstorm outlook risk. now, this is still a couple days out, but we are in the enhanced zone for at least half of our viewing area. that means there is a better potential for us to see those strong-to-severe
