Pretty quiet conditions still a little warm, 82 right now in philadelphia. Humidity at 60 . Because the winds theyre still out of the south and the west. As we look at temperatures area wide, mid 80s in reading. 84 in dover. 82 in trenton. Low 80s right now in atlantic city. But look at the the dew point. The measure of moisture in the atmosphere. Any time its at or above 60 degrees it starts to feel a little sticky. So as we look at that scale dew points in the 60s. Uncomfortable close to 70s when it starts to feel really oppressive. If you dont like that humidity, and those dew points above 60, you look at the temperatures right now out ahead of this front in the low 80s philadelphia. Near 90 in d. C.

So it will be mild if youre stepping outdoors. Temperatures by 11 00 oclock still in the upper 60s. But that humidity will really start to drop but out ahead of this front still kind of muggy up stable. Most of the thunderstorms well to the north of us as well as to the south. But High Pressure thats behind that front and a windshield. Winds now out of the south and west behind that front out of the north and west and that will help to really lower the humidity. Scower out the clouds across our area so wednesday looking pretty nice. It will be comfortable. Get outdoors and enjoy it. Not a cloud in the sky through much of the day tomorrow.

And then the upcoming Holiday Weekend s it looks really good to kick off the unofficial start to summer. Perfect. Yeah. Beautiful. Thanks, scott. Thank you. Howard eskin. Im holding you there. All right. All right. Hes on notice. All right. The sixers have a night tonight that could set up the franchise for years. It could actually set them back as well. Ill explain. Last week, new England Patriots owner robert craft was digging in ready to go after the nfl and the commissioner on deflategate. That all changed today. Thats all coming up in sports. New England Patriots owner robert craft called out the commissioner roger good dell at the soup bowl over the charges of dee plating footballs. He wanted hard evidence or an apology. After investigation by ted wells the nfl penalized the patriots with a loss of a first round pick a fourth round pick and fine the them 1 million bucks. The owner robert craft was angry angry. Went aft the commissioner Roger Goodell and threatened to appeal and many thought he would take it to court. Today at the owners meetings, oh, robert craft. He raised the white flag and he surrendered. I dont want to continue the rhetoric thats gone on for the last four months. Im going to accept reluctantly what he has given to us and not continue this dialogue and rhetoric and we wont appeal. Thats because you cheated. All right its interesting to note that craft who took no questions, did not helping tom brady. Who is now on his own with the Players Union appeal of his four game suspension. And the nfl today changed the extra point rule for attempts. The ball will be placed at the 15yard line, twopoint conversions at the two and the defenses can score now on the twopoint conversions. A big night tonight. The sixers, well, it could be a big night. The draft lottery so do the sixers have enough balls in the lottery . Those pingpong balls are important. With sixers tanking last season they only have the third best chance at the number one pick. Thats over 15 . Minnesota has the best chance. The new york 96 nick the second best chance and the sixers third and the sixers have a chance of really getting the first six and 11th picks but the worst scenario they could get just number sick. Penn state football coach James Franklin in philadelphia today part of penn state coaches caravan. Franklin had all of his scholarships back after the Jerry Sandusky scandal that says penn state still years behind other schools.
