but first, bill karins with a check on the forecast. good morning, mika. breaking news off the coast of japan. we had a sizable earthquake. a 6.8 magnitude. almost a year to today after the horrible one with the big tsunami. thankfully no big tsunamis expected with this one. those were almost magnitude 8 or above 8. that's a big difference. we'll watch it to see if anything develops. maybe local tsunamis, but nothing like a year ago. in the u.s., lower 48, feels like june out there and it will today and through the upcoming weekend. the exceptions out there on the west coast. and the reason why, the jet stream is in like a june or july type position well up into canada. very rare to see it that far to the north. and here's the result, temperatures near 80 today in washington, d.c., baltimore, 70s from philly to new york. 60s all through new england. and look at chicago today, 80 for you, 82 from kansas city to st. louis, denver at 72. look at this, it continues even into tomorrow. really not going to look at much in the way of any change around
