Reporter only thing they can do is give dogs an iv and let them sleep it off. Very few animals die. Reporter still a scary situation though especially for curious puppies who like to taste everything. Well, if your dog happened happens to eat marijuana dont panic. If you can get your pet to the vet within four hours, everything should be fine. But that clock is tick. I saw the sun. We saw the sun about half hour ago. Is that what it was. A few minutes i think it was out. I blinked so i missed it. Thats what happens. It was that fast. It was. So every day we get reports from the National Weather service and it says the percentage of possible sunshine that we actually saw and today its probably zero. But did you see it well see what we can do. Ill tell them iain page did see it. 1 . Hes an official weather spotter. Take look. Live at market street. A busy afternoon as we noticed last week when we were in the clouds and temperatures in the 50s everything looks little bit greener when you have cloudy skies. Okay. Enough of that already.

We have spotty showers mainly cutting right into south jersey and also heading down the shore as well. Avalon a few sprinkles and 55 degrees. Wildwood 54. Not a huge range in temperature we do have bit of an ocean influence ocean water temperature only 55 degrees. Ultimate doppler you can see a line of showers associated with a weak front that has been stalled near our area for the past couple of days. In a line from southern lancaster county, southern parts of Chester County through wilmington and northern new castle you can see right here along 95. So areas high park, newport even into riverside, tavis stock through wilmington and Carneys Point right across the delaware seeing showers. Extending down through 40 and upper pitts grove, al away, woodmere, deerfield youre seeing a few showers and even down the shore right along the parkway in middle township stone harbor and wildwood. Now these are moving toward the southeast at about 30 miles an hour. At that speed and with sunset a couple hours away they will be dissipating and then well just be seeing mostly cloudy skies. Its associated with an area of low pressure creating that Severe Weather out west and snaking stationary front that slowly drifting north as a warm front and thats producing the showers. We do anticipate a few lingering showers tomorrow morning by the afternoon some breaks in the clouds and temperatures slowly warming into the upper 60s. Ocean water temperature still on the chilly side as i mentioned. Only in the mid 50s. We look at the weather map as a whole. You see the contour all this green so where is the warmth . That has been the question for the past several days. 59 in philadelphia. 82 in raleigh so you can really see where this front is hanging out. Lexington just to the south of the front st. Louis 79. Atlanta 82. Orlando 86 and that is not even the core of the heat with this system. Look at this. 87 degrees in houston. And mid lander, texas its 95.

Thursday and friday slowly going back above normal for change. Overnight in the city 51. In our suburbs 47. Early light spotty shower if youre going out this evening youll need a light jacket but it shouldnt be anything more than that. 69 for the high tomorrow. Spotty showers especially in the morning. I do expect some sunshine. More than we saw today to say the very least. If you suffer from seasonal allergies, oak, birch and maple trees will be the big problem with all the damp wet wither it hasnt been a huge issue. High levels for wednesday and thursday. Friday and saturday as we see an increase in sunshine during those days. On the fox 29 Weather Authority seven day forecast, 73 for your thursday. Then friday we have another front moving through.

You combine americas sky rocketing Opioid Epidemic and an almost miracle device that can seemingly bring overdose victims back from the dead and youve created a whole new world for local police. Our bruce gordon recently spent some time with some police in upper darby where high profile narcan safe put the issue front and center. Reporter when Upper Darby Police officer matt lynch reports for duty he straps on his gear. Side arm, check. Radio, check. Baton, handcuffs, extra ammo clips, all there. Then lynch heads to the rack of patrol car keys to retrieve whats become one of the most important tools hell carry, the little red boxes hold narcan kits no Assembly Required nasal spray antidote that can bring heroin overdose victim virtually back from the dead. Lynch remembers his first exposure to the new kits. Carried this red box with me everywhere and it was like when am i ever going to use this . Probably a week or so later, it came up. It happened. Reporter in just the past 16 months, lynch and his fellow Upper Darby Police officers have used narcan 86 times to revive overdose victims. 74 times it did the trick. Thats frightening. Reporter remember this video . More than 600,000 people have watched it on various internet sites since it was released baaing in january. It shows 25yearold michael meanie of Delaware County shooting heroin aboard a crowded septa bus. Moments later he collapses unconscious on to the floor of the moving vehicle. Upper darby police are first on the scene and theres that little red box using the narcan to revive meanie. Later charged with drug possession in the hopes of getting him into treatment. People that normally would not commit crimes are compelled to commit crimes by the hold that this drug has on them. Reporter per dash plea police Officials Say narcan has turned their officers into couldnt. Emt. Were interested in saving lives and this is probably one of the more dramatic ways that we can do that. Reporter captain Thomas Johnson says his officers are enthusiastic about how narcan has expanded their duties or maybe more accurately expanded their opportunities. We are worried theres going to be two police cars crashing into each other trying to get to the person that they can revive because theres an incredible amount of satisfaction when you can save life. Reporter we talk at length with officer lynch as he patrolled upper darby on recent afternoon. He had several narcan saves to his credit. But says back from the dead victims arent always grateful. Its neat to see it, you know, at that point, but my first thing right after that is is this person going to be combative . Is he going to want to assault me or anyone else . Reporter theres bigger problem. Cops with narcan can save a drug user for the moment. But many addicts cannot kick the habit. In april of last year, for example, lynch saved an overdose victim with narcan, a 40yearold man. He started coming around and, you know, his girlfriend thanked us for for helping him, you know, come back and bring him back to life, and but he told me as he was getting loaded on the ambulance that he had just got out of rehab, ungearing week prior. Reporter four days later that man eded again this time narcan could not bring him back. The addiction was more powerful than life. So it was definitely sad situation. Reporter like many police officers, matt lynch has served in the military. He was an infantry platoon leader in afghanistan and remembers seeing vast fields of poppies. Colorful almost beautiful. But over there the drug trade helps fun the taliban. Back home, it destroys the lives of those he serves. You see really wild looking and cool looking but, you know, down here you actually see the, you know, the end result and its horrible. Reporter mat lynch enjoys the new lifesaving opportunities that come with the little red box he carries, but he knows all too well that narcan and his quick use of it is only temporary answer for the drug user. If were there and we can help, well do our best. At the end of the day, you have to want to help yourself. Reporter toward that end Upper Darby Police are offering to connect addicts with drug treatment programs if they come into the Police Station looking for help. So far says captain johnson, few have taken them up on the offer. Again, cops with those little red boxes can only do so much. In the newsroom, im Bruce Gordon Fox 29 news. In your health tonight a warning about how youre little ones sleeps. Study finds that babies who are swaddled as they sleep may have higher risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Swaddling or wrapping a child in a blanket with their head exposed but arms inside is thought to have a calming effect that helps babies sleep but findings publish in the journal of pediatrics say it may increase the risk of sudden infant death sin dome or sids. That risk goes up more when the child slept on their stomach. Those infants compared to those not swaddled had about 13 times the risk of dying from sids. Thats interesting. A surprising connection between snoring and Breast Cancer. Researchers found that women who sleepless than six hours a night and usually snore are twice as likely to die from breast canc cancer. The studies in a journal clinical sleep medicine resear researchers analyzed more than 20,000 women diagnosed with Breast Cancer that had not spread. Researchers note that previous studies have shown sleep problems may boost tumor growth. They say theyre fineings highlight the importance of a good nights sleep particularly for Breast Cancer patients. Now we told you recently about a study suggesting that some people only need one minute of exercise. One minute to get all of the positive benefits they need. Well, theres a little more to that story. Fox as neat at a sent Deena Centofanti explains. Reporter its true. One minute of high intensity exercise can benefit your body but lets be very clear. Its 10 minutes of which one minute is hard work and nine minutes interspersed kind of the warmup, the cool down and in between. Reporter the team at Mcmaster University in ontario studied 20 somethings and found the group doing just a minute of high intensity training mixed in with nine minutes of warming up and cooling down did just as well as the group working out for 50 minutes.
