Meteorologist, karen rogers, will help launch a weather balloon tomorrow morning during action news. Cecily tynan is here now way preview. This is really cool. This is so exciting for our weather team. Adam and i spent afternoon outside of the studio inflating the first 6 abc weather balloon and demonstrate the role they play in every single forecast. All right we are in the process of blowing up our 6 abc weather balloon and these are used across the globe to gather Important Information that is used in weather forecasting and this is going to go really high and get really big as well. It goes up about 100,000 feet to the edge of the stratosphere and the pay load with this, there are 800 launches twice a day across the world and we are doing our own tomorrow morning, that collects data and we find out what will happen in the future with the weather models we talk about. And as this goes up in the atmosphere so this guy will get to be 25 feet in diameter by the time is reached the stratosph e stratosphere. It takes two hours to rise and then it get theres and pops. And then this guy the parachute brings it down to earth and it only takes 25 minutes to reach the surface and then we can find it. This is the pay load, its amazing that we have all of this instrumentation, and this is a pound and a half, it has to be light to be pulled up by the weather balloon, this is the gps, that allows us to find it after it falls to the earth and it records wind speed and wind direction. This is something that typically we dont have on weather balloons but this is the go pro, this is so we can show the action news viewer whats it looks like. You can see it going up through the atmosphere, it records temperature and pressure, because not only do you have to know the temperature and pressure at earth where we live and play and where we are standing and especially in the winter months we have to look at the profile through the atmosphere and that determines whether we see a mixture of snow or sleet or freezing rain and that gathers the information. This is how it does it, this is the inflight computer designed by someone that works for the International Space station and that can actually record temperatures as low as 76 farenheit below 0. We get all the information and its put in the computers and that is part of how we develop weather forecasts. It takes two hours going up and collects the data going up not done and we find the great information and get to show it to you live tomorrow on action news. I think its fascinating how the equipment that collects the data is very sophisticated. We have an inflight computer and gps but the method of delivering it into the atmosphere is so simple. Its just a balloon, the first time we are launching one at 6 abc. You are having a launch and im having a lunch. Well cover that tomorrow. Well launch that weather balloon live on the morning show, track the path of the balloon yourself and track the data it is collecting live on 6abc. Com. Be part of our weather team.

On health check, fitness trackers may see like an easy way to lose weight but they may not live up to their claims. Ali gorman joins us to explain. Reporter the idea is they track how much you move on motivate you to move more and lose weight. But researchers at the university of pittsburgh for some people they were better off without them. They followed nearly 500 people struggling with their weight and put on a lower calorie diet and told to exercise, after six months half of the group started wearing fitness monitors, after two years both groups lost weight but the ones without the trackers lost an average of 5 expounds more and the devices may lead to people eating more because they reward themselves for activity and other theorys. It may give people a false sense of security, they dont Pay Attention to key behaviors they may Pay Attention to. They rely on it too much. Researchers say there may need to be more researches for who the devices work better for the my advice if you try to lose weight and you use a fitness tracker, use an app to track your food and calories. And keep in mind it is very difficult to out exercise a poor diet. So Healthy Eating is key. Rick and monica back over to you. I wear mine all the time. I do too, i love mine. Me too.

Cecily tynan is here to tell us how things shape up for the evening and the rest of the week. Today very warm and humid as well. Sky 6 hd taking a look at Atlantic City, and as expected, a lot of clouds along the shore in the meantime, farther to the north and west. Brighter skies and a live look taking a look from the pagoda at reading and because of that temperatures are warmer to the north and west. Reading 82 and allentown 84 and philadelphia partly cloudy skies and 81 and cape may with the thick cloud cover, 75 degrees and Atlantic City airport 76. Satellite 6 along with action radar showing the front that moved through last night essentially stalled because of the remnants of Tropical Storm julia kind of hung it up and we have quite a bit of cloud cover and some breaks in the Lehigh Valley and the poconos. Tonight is another warm night, another humid night, there could be areas of patchy fog developing and cape may 69 and wilmington 65 and allentown 59 degrees, tomorrow we see a mixture of clouds and sunshine and it will be a little less humid and its going to be warmer and by noon 82 degrees and by 2 00 and 4 00 temperatures up into the mid80s, so temperatures run 10 degrees above normal and that continues right through the weekend. Tropical satellite shows two systems now, Tropical Storm lisa was formed and maximum winds 45 miles per hour. And lisa is no threat to land but the bigger threat is Tropical Storm karl and that is strengthening moving towarded the berl out. It starts to head toward the island and as it does, it will be strengthening, so when it passes close to bermuda, likely just to the east, early on saturday, it could be near category 2 hurricane strength so even if its not a direct hit it will have a big impact and then it heads out to sea. No impact for us but if you head to bermuda this weekend you may want to rethink your plans. A high of 86 degrees on wednesday and thursday when fall arrives, doesnt feel like it and 88 degrees and a high of 88 on friday, but as we head through the weekend temperatures stepping down, saturday for the temple homecoming is 80 and sunday for the eagles feeling like football weather, adam will let you know if that sticks around in the accuweather forecast.

It just takes some planning. And i can help. So if you have a question about retirement, ask me. Sincerely, Bernard Tynes fellow vacationer and fellow citizen.
