Fcc we have to ask what your resolution is for 2016.

Yours you can fill in whatever you want. It is so personal. It is great. Thank you. Happy holidays. Happy new year, it is an eight out of ten for your number today, we are looking at a colder morning bus stop buddy still has his new years hat on but warmer coat on then yesterday. Temperatures mostly in the 30s, we have a couple 40s out there and there is a lot of cloud cover but we are hoping to get rid of that and see some sunshine today. I think we will. It is 40 degrees in the city and 10mile an hour wind. 7 22 is your sunrise time. That is coming up. Sunset the 4 46. We will have sunshine in between sunrise and sunset, High Temperature today of 45 degrees, wait until you see how cold in the seven day forecast, coming up, that is your weather for today, first one of the year. We have traffic, well, report on not too much traffic out there really, all is cleared on the ben franklin bridge heading in to philadelphia for now and i95 northbound at route 420, also quite clear in delco, so mummers parade starts at 9 00, broad street will be closed between arch and washington, detours will be in effect, so you better be aware of that traveling around the city, today mike and karen. So at 6 01. Im walking in front of my apartment on walnut street near the the fourth and kaboom, this was really a good looking display. It had has been too long. We were driving, as fast as we could and watching it go off at 6 00 we are driving in trying to make it down on the radio but we got to watch them taking off in the city. Really cool good it is new years day and philadelphia celebrates new years day like no other city in the world because of the mummers parade but it will be different this year. It will be. We have steve keeley out there, one of the oldest traditions, in the entire country. Steve keeley, something might be happening this year that is news worthy. Yes, we will keep mikes open, a anchors so i need your commentary here, mike in cursing while im on as usual. One of the police do not cross barricade, police wood inn barricade already karate chopped right here in the middle of Market Street. That is in the a good sign, is it . That is in the car number one, is it . Police are out in big numbers already. It will be a licensing day for a lot of city people today. Let me see if i should let that officer in. I guess he can get in if he want to get in. What you are looking at is golden sunrise group, fancy Brigade Division and they are the last year on Market Street to set up. Look at that, it looks like they have just raided your closet at home, your lime green bowa did you wear that out last night. I actually did, i dropped it off at that guy at 2 00 this morning my lime green bowa. I hear a mummers band in the distance, listen, are we picking this up. We hear it. So now, fortunately we dont have a wireless mike so we will join them in the next hour but lets talk about the serious stuff with this. The Philadelphia Park and Recreation Department parade director, Deputy Commissioner leo digman meeting at his office at 1515 arch street because he has got word that a lot of city officials have gotten including the the Police Department and Home Land Security Department that the black lives matter group is planning a big disruption of this mummers parade today at the 1 00 oclock right here at city hall, right in front of the judges reviewing stands right where the live tv cameras are, carrying this parade on live tv and right where thousands of people have paid 19 bucks to sit in the bleacher seats there. So, this parade could be more than just the the normal fun every year and what a ironic twist that this is the first ever mummers parade that is going to counter all of the critics about its lack of diversity by having black and latino march are and strutters for the first time and now black lives matter group says they want to protest two things. In the just the the Police Shootings around the the country, Police Brutality but they say the mummers, history of racism they called it. So, they have a lot of threats they say on their Facebook Page announcing and organizing this that they delete budd they are ready to tiehl with participant who attack them and they are also ready to be arrested. Karen and mike, this could be a very memorable mummers parade. Yes, for sure, all right, we will have cameras there of course. 7 07. A sea of people in times square last night, what did they say over a million. About a Million People fit into that space. It was a safe event. The it was amazing. I love it when they have the ball drops and all of the confetti starts falling. The obviously that the Waterford Crystal ball, fire works go off. All right karen, calm down. We had cute kissing shots when folks were in love. Did you kiss anybody. You you know what, i did not. Look at that, so cute. Listen to me, i got kisses on the cheeks from a number of humans but there was in lip on lip action for me last night. I didnt turn into within of those no, i have a fiance, there was in lip on lip last night. If you want to change that right now. Hey. 7 08. Other big story in our area certainly this week bill cosby, posts on social media for the first time in months following an arrest on Sexual Assault charges in Montgomery County. It was very simple, very short, friend and fans, thank you. In other word thank you for your support, that is what he is saying. It is interesting timing that he said anything, this was first time he has ever tweeted since august of this year and it all comes a day after the charges in Montgomery County, on Sexual Assault for Temple University employee at his home back in early 2004. What he says that was a consensual event his lawyer shown there, attorney pressly is going on the attack saying this arrest is flawed, politically motivated and will not hold up in court. Pressly says cosby is in good spirits and he will be exonerated. So legal case against bill cosby is shaping up to be boy an interesting case for sure. It will probably go on for over a year. Not only is this case nearly 12 years old but as we know he has been accused of Sexual Assault by dozens of woman but no charges have ever been filed. Many of them because the statute of limitations has run out. They cant charge him. This is first time. So these women who said they are willing to testify in this case but that is something his lawyer clearly they will try to prevent that. They dent want to hear from any of those or people. Prosecutors to have prove their testimony is directly relevant to this particular case. They will try to set up a pattern. Wouldnt be easy to do. Another element is settlement between bill cosby and woman from 2005 who used to work at Temple University. She sued him back in 2005. You know, prosecutors decided not to charge him way back then. He settled a year later and gave a deposition of what happened that was sealed until excerpts were released by a judge at the request of the Associated Press. His attorneys will likely fight to keep those excerpts of the deposition out of his trial. We shall see. Interesting we just saw a picture of his wife here as well and she is going to have to testify. She tried to fight testifying, camille at a case up there in massachusetts but judge just said nope, we will to have hear from you. We will follow that as well. We will be covering that for months and months. 7 10. There was a woman in mayfair doing some grocery shopping, right, yesterday, end up with a bullet in her face. Well, good news is shes back home and recovering but person who shot her is still on the loose right now. Authorities say that shes 57 years old and her name is judy richie and was walking on erhdick street yesterday on her way home from the shop rite in that area a man in the car gets out, and then goes up to her with a gun and snatches her purse. They struggled a little bit, the gun goes off, hitting her in the cheek. Shes wounded, bleeding but she continues to walk for a couple more blocks, back to her house and then she calls police, the crime has shaken up everybody in the neighborhood. It the is just horrible, horrible. I cant believe that is happening here. Im or toy see what happened to her. New years eve, happy new years and this is what we have to look forward to around here. That armed robber got away with a lot of money, 400. Detective are hoping to find some Surveillance Video of what happened, and maybe give them some includes and lead them to the suspect. Right here in our neighborhood some people are feeling unsettled in olde city. Police say at least one man in olde city has been very busy robbing people. He has robbed a whole number of people just the past couple weeks, there has been four cases where there is armed robberies when olde city, society hill and they are all happening at the same time between 9 00 and 11 00 at night. They dont necessity who this person is, they dont have a suspect, it is unclear fit is same person or maybe different people that are committing these attacks. Interesting, all of them, between 9 00 and 11 00 at night in olde city, right here. 7 12. The white house wants to curb gun violence and it is vowing to push for tighter gun control in the new year, executive order coming up. It seems like the president will be taking some executive action next week to expand background checks on gun sales. This could happen as soon as he returns from vacation in hawaii. The white house, will confirm details but president obama has been targeting on line gun sales and those big gun shows, around the country. The National Rifle association is on record against the expansion of the background checks, arguing criminals find other ways to get their hand on weapons. We will keep an yah on that probably next week. Fbi says it stopped annex conn from carrying out a terrorist attack. He wanted to do it last night. This guy is in rochester, new york. Pretty scary but they foiled this plan. The suspect is 25 years old, his name is emmanuel, he is charged with attempting to provide Material Support to terrorist. The federal say he planned to attack people at a bar last night with weapons that he purchased from an fbi informant. Authorities say members of the isis told him he needed to prove loyalty to the group by planning an operation. That was his plan. He does have a past criminal record and also a history of mental illness. Scary moments leading up to the new year in munich, germany, last night, warnings of an imminent terrorist attack in munich. They took some action there. Police really quick on this ones vac waiting two train stations in the city, warning people to stay away from forming large crowd this came just before the the new year and thousands of people still had plans, they went outside and watched fire works there but in the so much so in paris. They cancel them. They didnt want to take that risk. They canceled their display to keep large crowd from gathering but they did this instead. They said we want to do something. They have put on a light show, lot shorter a and they have more security. No issues were reported there. Man, lot of people were talking about this yesterday, i was at a restaurant, stopped and look up at the monitors, big fire in dub ai did you see this a high rise luxury hotel, look at how high the flames are going at this beautiful hotel. It was so stunning, i walk into someones home saying is what happening on television. We dont have an official word on the cause of this one, it is a large building, 63 stories, it is call at dress hotel. Explosions were report ared right before the fire started in about two hours before the fire works show, and they had fire works get on as planned even though they had thick smoke in the massive fire that was burning maybe fire works that was cause, that is one the of the things. It was two hearst before the the fire works. You have to investigate all sorts of things when a big hotel lick this goes up like that, with explosions, new years eve, what really was the the cause. They will have to investigate this. We do necessity there were some injuries, 14 people were hurt mostly because they were trying to get away from the scene. Yes. Okay sue is what number of the day eight out of ten. It is an eight today. A prop eighth thely chilly for january 1st which we know what happens every january 1st in philadelphia, the mummers parade. At 8 00 oclock we will be around 40 degrees which is where we are right now. By 2 00 he clock we should reach our high of the day 45. Stay on the sunnyside of the street you should be just fine, now just have a few layers on, for viewing the parade today. Heres what is happening, change in our weather pattern with the jet stream sinking to the south of us. The it had been staying to the north of us all the way through the entire in of december really ever since thanksgiving and new we have northwesterly wind coming in and that means a colder, weather pattern, so rain stays to our south from the cold front that came through yesterday and new were seeing lake effect snow machine cranking up around buffalo, new york and east of lake ontario around cleveland, ohio as well will because that cold air is moving across the great lakes that hasnt frozen yet, cannot rule out a flurry or two around here but generally we will to have get used to these colder temperatures. Mostly were in the 30s. Thirtyseven in reading and allentown, we have 29 in mount pocono. Forty here. Thirtynine in wildwood and 38. That makes the wind feel like it is 33. So dress for those temperatures, that are in the 30s because that is the the wind chill, this morning. Average high his 1 degrees. We have not been above average since november between the fourth. We havent been below average i should say with temperatures well above through christmas weekend and sunk down to monday at 47 degrees. Still above average. Fiftytwo yesterday. Two days before that. New 44 for High Temperature today. Fortythree tomorrow. Fortyfive on sunday. And then it gets very cold on monday, and tuesday of next week. The day time highs only in the 30s but still plenty of sunshine. The that is your seven day forecast. We are checking traffic this morning. There is not much on the road because everybody, well, was probably out last night. I95 at cottman avenue all clear just a handful of cars, driving around, route 202 southbound at route 422 is all clear, hardly a car on the road, and we have this check on mass transit, all septa services are on sunday holiday schedules today, broad street line, they are adding trains, they will have trains every eight to ten minutes the broad street line and why do you think that is . The the mummers parade. Of course. You know what sue, looking at that traffic, it feels like it is the holiday. Do you think. I love that about her. It is a friday. 7 18. Sunday, time game of the year, eagles will go up to the meadow land. Yeah. To play giants. Really means nothing. Our new friend here at good day philadelphia is dave u theram. We met you last monday. Yes. It has been a love affair ever since. I love coming here. Good. You guys have me back here every other day. Dont push it, this might be it. You went on this rant about getting rid of chip kelly. Yeah he could not even beat washington redskins. Yes. And then next day he is gone. A amazing, power of television, it is so great. Yeah. So, i was with a couple eagles players last night at a party offer at the waterworks. Can you name names. I would rather not. Why do you even bother to go up there and sunday. They say it is pride. You still play hard because your pride full and you you dont want to get hurt. If you dont play hard you will get hurt. I get that the from the players perspective but from a fans perspective you and i, it makes in sense for them to win this game on sunday. Makes no sense to. What is advantage of the losing. Advantage of losing is two reasons f they lose and Everything Else goes right around the league, they could get as far up as the sixth pick in the draft, next year. Out of 32 teams. But if they win and things go a certain way with the other games they cull be as far back as 17 difference was last year they were playing for tenth win and different between picks 18 and 20. Now it is picks, six and 17. That is a bad attitude i cant stand when team dont play to win. The players want to win. I want a sixth draft pick over a 17th. Real quickly here before we go too far, we have a bunch of players who are free agents. Yes. If i were a free agent i might want to leave town. So sam bradford he can go anywhere he wants now. I think he should stay here. I think sam bradford should stay here. I want him to stay. I liked how he played in the second half of the year. I didnt like the way he played up until that and i was ripping him throughout but he stepped up, started to get comfortable here in philadelphia and with what chips system was and i see talent with him. Inl an carol was their better corner, better than Byron Maxwell and nickel and dime corners, really covered people as well i want him to stay. Walter thurmond. He was a surprising safety that you could get cheap because he wasnt really a big name, he should say, keep him. Vinny cure difficult not fit billy davis 3 4 defense but billy davis isnt going to be here. Hopefully eagles bri
