Out of the this nicole. We end up day one, warm front. Day cold cold front. Wet weather. Off pretty soggy start thus far this morning. It was a light rain general until had been falling throughout the morning it was enough to slow everything down and were going to be dealing with that right through the rest of the day as well as all of tomorrow. Lets go ahead and deliver the news. Storm scan showing a warm front lifting in. Granted were not talking about exceptional warmth but it is above average. I mean it is december now folks. The fact that were seeing strictly rain out of the this its a good thing obviously. We look at a wider zoom of the show there is snow to report with it but not and issue for us. Its just rain and quite a bit of it now start to go overspread the area at high noon and just in time for maybe you to be heading out for your lunch break. You might want to think about ordering lunch in as you continue to watch us here on it witness news. Now, look at the visibilities
Nature. I mean it, cents widespread for sure. There are supports where it is just a mist, or you really just have clouds. The problem is, see whats off to the southwest there . Another little pocket. This is our warmfront thats lifting in, guys. So it really is essentially all day event, even there will be few breaks along the way, it is just cloudy and damp and showery, and with a pocket of steadier rain on the way, for later on today. I would say about midday, you can expect that to really dampen, you know, any kind of lunch plans you might v might be good idea to order in today. Our rain and the, thus far, are as such. Not too bad. We have only seen few tents after inch so far in reading, coatesville, enough to make it a big fat nuisance, but not enough to lead to any flooding. Thats kind of how the storely shake out for us here as we move forward in this forecast. We take a look at the area visibility. Theyre not perfect in philly, but theyre better than they are in the poconos, at
buy. that s what the whole cases hearing mr. buying the gun and the book. so i guess they re now trying to use that to show their side of the story as well evan also said he didn t mention it there, but it did say during some of the presentations a technical presentations of text messages videos, photos from the icloud from that laptop, that some of the jurors did seem to struggle to stay awake obviously, we didn t i didn t see that ever in the courtroom here in manhattan. so this is a little bit different in terms of what we re seeing here. what does that say to you? not good for the prosecutors. i mean, they want their jurors to be paying attention to the evidence, especially in the very first day that they re presenting evidence to the jurors. yeah. you d want them to be paying attention if they re not if they re struggling to stay awake means they re basically not fully awake. so they re not absorbing the information. it means more of a weight is carried by the prosecutors in sum
