Issued a winter advisory until 10 00 this evening because initially this is going to start as snow in these counties here. It will transition over to a wintry mix, sleet and freezing rain and eventually go over to rain as some milder air works its way into the area. As of now temperatures are below the freezing mark of 32. Bethlehem 32, lake harmony 22. Colder stuff out here to the west, but numbers are above freezing south and east thats part of the wn why theres no advisory for new jersey and delaware. As we take a look at future tracker here, the snow line will continue to lift to the north as the day wears on. This is just a cold rain for the immediate philadelphia area today. Accuweather says cloudy and damp this afternoon with rain developing around midday and a high of 44. Ill have much more on this with the timing and the accuweather 7day forecast all coming up in about 10 minutes. Thank you. It is finally super bowl sunday. The eagles will take the field in about nine and a half hours. The birds have not let their underdog status indim tate them all season long. Yesterday the team got a feel for the graph. The owner was with them on the side line now marked with the eagles logo. We have Live Team Coverage of the eagles in super bowl lii. Brian taff and Sharrie Williams are at the mall america, Ducis Rodgers and jamie apody are at u. S. Bank stadium. Here at home the massive security effort and Jeannette Reyes is following the fan pandemonium. Up close and personal the day weve all been waiting for, finally here. You said it, guys. Good morning, from minnesota. This is the moment weve been waiting for for so long to cap off this memorable season. All we need now, one more win. Lets get that win later today. We are here inside the mall of america. Its 8 00 a. M. Central time so its empty now. That will not be the case later on. This is where fans will arrive later on to go through the screening process before those who are lucky enough to have a ticket to super bowl lii board a train to go from here to u. S. Bank state yumd. Its been hopping all week that includes last night. Eagles pride could be seen as the green and white is all over the twin cities. The love for this team could also be heard as fiancee rupted time and time again in that eagles chant. This is what they traveled here for. To take in the excitement of being at a super bowl. Some unique stories as to some of these people fell in love with the eagles. We spoke with one man whose fandom goes back to the 1940s and another whos been following the team since the days of Franklin Field. My first eagles game i ever went to was the last game at the vet and now my second game ive ever gone to is the super bowl here. So yeah. Once in a lifetime. Since 1940. The first time i saw was 1942. 1942 was your first game . Yeah. Green bay packers playing the eagles. Reporter its just so special to those who have traveled here. You hear these stories. Only two games, the super bowl being one of them. The only gentleman back to the 1940s. Its just great to see their faces, the excitement of them being here. And today its gate day. Were looking to add to those history books today. For so many fans this is not just the end of a story book season. Its a milestone of a lifetime of fandom and were all relishing it here in minnesota. Im brian taff, well see you guys later today for now well send it back to the studio. Generations of eagles fans watching tonight. Lets go now to jamie apody and Ducis Rodgers. They are live outside u. S. Bank stadium in minneapolis. Its cold but the fans are on fire . Reporter yes, and this team is on fire as well. Red hot in that nfc championship game against the vikings. Super bowl is finally here. For right now, ducis, its 5, feels like 22. Thats why im using all those hot words. I know. The eagles are getting set for this game. Its finally here. I feel like weve waited forever for this day to come. And you know, we all know about the whole underdog thing, we know about the patriots and their dynasty. The bottom line is this. This team has a Mutual Respect for one another and its going to be a great game tonight. The eagles have made it a point to keep things light this week, from dancing to wrestling masks. This team has been focused on fun. But bring up tom brady and the patriots, that mood changes quickly. Theyve done a lot of great things. Theyre not here by mistake, were not here by mistake. If we make this whole thing about the patriots the birds are not intimidated theyre not in awe. Instead they look at the patriots and see a model for what they would like to become some day, a dynasty and this is the first step. Brady is gone eight out of 16 years playing for the super bowl. You cant even comprehend those numbers. That feeling of respect is mutual. Even with his five super bowl rings, tom brady knows. Its not going to be easy we all have to have the mentality were going to have to work for it. Everybody has to play well. This isnt a game where we can have one group thats not really playing as well as theyre capable. Reporter at last check the eagles were 4. 5 underdogs for super bowl lii. Of course brady told me theyre no underdogs, they were 13 and 1 coming into this. Live outside u. S. Bank stadium and we havent frozen yet. Hes Ducis Rodgers, im jamie apody at the super bowl. Channel 6 action news. Its going to be good. 9 07 your time back here at home bob brooks is in center city, philadelphia this morning. The city is ready for any celebrations that might occur following the game, right . Reporter Police Commissioner richard ross said earlier this week, they are ready for anything that could happen. And i know a lot of people, theyve been waiting their whole lives for this moment for when the birds win this game. So just ask that when you do come out here and celebrate, dont cause any trouble. These were the massive crowds after the nfc championship game. As expected they formed in notorious city hot spots. With an eagles win tonight, police say these crowds are going to be much bigger. Earlier this week Police Commissioner richard ross gave a clear message to those think about doing more than just celebrating. Clearly assault, destruction of property will be dealt with swiftly. Were going to move in and handle those situations. Reporter but in the same breath, police are encouraging celebration. After all, a win tonight in the super bowl will be the first for the city and no one wants to put a stop to soaking in the moment. We are about business but we are still about business of allowing people to celebrate as long as its done peacefully. The commissioner wouldnt go into too many details of what the plan is to keep order, but he did say they will not be greasing poles. Instead he says they have another plan. We spoke with a local Jiu Jitsu Club. I dont want any rocks thrown, cars flipped over. I hope everybody has a good time with it, but i dont want anybody making too much damage. Reporter also lets talk parking restrictions. Theyre going into effect at 2 00 p. M. Today and will be in effect until tomorrow at 3 00 a. M. Broad street is lined with barriers ready to be put out in place. There will be no parking from arch to pine and also on broad street from dickenson to oregon avenue. There is no parking on either side of broad street and median parking as well. You can see behind me here at city hall, some of these steel barriers have already been put in place. Getting ready again those restrictions start at 2 00 p. M. If you remember last sunny had my green turtle neck on. Ive got it on again today. The birds killed the vikings two weeks ago and now i think its lucky so im going to wear it on game day. Bob brooks, channel 6 action news. Back to you guys. If they win tonight, it is all thanks to you. Lets go over to Jeannette Reyes. Shes live in the citys mayfair section. To say fans are ready and pumped for this game is an understatement. Reporter theyve been ready since 5 00 this morning. They were hearing in the back right behind me this morning. But this is the place to be. Aside from minneapolis, you want to be here. Right near frankford and cottman as we know its a hot spot. Wear green before you step inside of here. It is going to be packed really throughout the day especially as we get closer to kickoff later on this evening. The manager told me last time a couple of weeks ago when we won against the vikings in a blowout game, the crowds did behave and tonight were expecting the same thing. Double the profit, double the numbers in terms of foot traffic. Whats your prediction for the game tonight . 2414 philadelphia. Reporter okay. And why are you so confident . I tell you what. Like everybody is saying, theyre such an underdog and they are underdogs they come out and theyre going to take a bite out of bradys butt. Reporter and before i send it back to you guys, i want to show you someone here who got something that is pretty hard to come my whole life, 58 years. Were hearing from a true fan there.

Theres a live view here looking from our center thats what it is. That was my fault, gray. As we look behind me, you can see the clouds are lowering and thickening all in advance of the next system that were watching here. The radar starting to pick up some moisture just to the west of the philadelphia area now and it is falling in the form of snow. You see the shades of gray and white showing up across Lancaster County just north of the masondixon line, everything moving to the northeast at about 1015 miles per hour. Because of that the National Weather service has issued a Winter Weather advisory for our far western counties. It will begin to snow at the on set and go over to rain as the afternoon wears on. Minor accumulations expected in our far western counties but perhaps just enough to create some slick spots out there. Thats part of the reason why the advisory was issued. Close to freezing now north and west. Poconos its really cold up there, its only 22. A blanket of snow out to the west. All of this pushing off to the northeast. So in time some milder air from both the chesapeake and delaware bays will flood the area and whatever snow you are seeing should quickly go over to rain as this model is starting to show here by midday. Heres the rainsnow line south of lancaster. It lifts all the way up to the Lehigh Valley by this afternoon. Its a cold rain. Still snowing in the poconos becomes steady and heavy as the Late Afternoon and evening wears on. Especially around halftime. This is a downpour taking place right through the heart of the delaware valley. Right around 11 00 everything should start to end from west to east 9 30 to 11 00. At that point temperatures are starting to fall. Still dealing with visibility issues at that point. The fog tracker showing visibility ranges 13 miles. Rain begins right around midday in the immediate philadelphia area. Briefly starting as snow. Heavy rain this evening, it all ends between 9 30 to 11 00 from west to east. Upper 30s north and west, low to mid 40s south and east. Millville getting close to 50, philadelphia 44, cape may 48. And overnight tonight evening rain some of this is going to be heavy, continuing until about 9 30 or so, and temperatures crashing first thing tomorrow morning so a lot of these numbers are right around 6 00 or 7 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning. Millville 32, tomorrow morning we will have wind chills in the Single Digits and teens. Bundle up, old man winter is making a comeback here. The exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, ponding on the roads expected, 44 tomorrow breezy and cold 34. The next system arrives on wednesday. More rain for us and 45. Nydia . All right, chris thank you. Early this morning the action cam was outside the lit brothers building at 7th and market streets in old city. As we can see the building that opened as a moderately priced Department Store in 1891 has become the latest structure to go green. The slogan was a great store for a great city. Now theyre rooting for a great team. Welcome back. It is 9 22. 36 degrees. Sky 6hd taking a live look from our city hall camera at 15th and jfk. Lots of rain and a little snow on this super bowl sunday so be aware as you head out to your super bowl parties today. Well, they say the snow must go on. Doylestown native pink says she will not let the flu stop her from singing her National Anthem from singing at the super bowl. She posted this picture on social media rehearsing the anthem. She said her children gave her the virus but she said it is one of her biggest honors of her life so she plans to soldier through the illness. You will no doubt be so at a party. A new study finds that the average american will consume 2400 calories during a Super Bowl Party. Thats hey a days worth of food. 1. 2 billion chicken wings will be consumed alone. Pizza is considered a musthave on super bowl sunday. 11 Million Pounds of chips and 4 Million Pounds of pretzels. And if youre hosting a Super Bowl Party today, you need to take some steps to avoid a food safety penalty. That food is delicious when its fresh but when its left out for several hours it could become very dangerous. When youre cooking those wings, make sure they are not overcrowded, that could cause some of them to be undercooked. They should be cooked to a temperature of 165 degrees. And remember to keep hot food hot, the cold food cold. Perishable foods should be left out longer than two hours should be tossed and replenished with fresh food. Since super bowl parties tend to be all day affairs putting out food in small batches a good idea. At halftime do a check on any food that may be replaced. Were back after this. According to the largest seller of licensed gear, more merchandise has been sold for the eagles and patriots than any of the past seven super bowl games. You might say eagles fans are the most loyal thats because they have purchased 50 more gear than Seattle Seahawks fans did which was the previous record. It will be plenty of trash talking during the game at one home in bucks county. In fact the trash talking has already been nonstop at the smith home. Thats because mike is a patriots fan, his wife is a diehard eagles fan and the children are split. Todays game all boils down to one thing for the family, bragging rights. I wanted to do if the eagles won, i wanted to get an eagles tattoo and she wanted to get a patriots tattoo but shes not having that. The smiths have decided whoever loses have to wear the winning teams jersey every sunday during the next football season. I like that better than the tattoo. I think mom is correct on this one. 9 27. Theres still much more to come on this sunday edition of action news. The eagles underdog help to get the Party Started for some young ters. The mayor says hes not allowing anything to jinx this game. How hes trying to help the birds to a win. Plus meteorologist chris sowers will have your super bowl sunday sluf 7day forecast when the news continues. Headed to the super bowl. A group of eagles fans leave bright and early so they can catch the eagles take on the patriots in person. Plus a perfectly solution r delicious centerpiece. Bakeries working overtime to help you cheer on the eagles. And we are tracking some rain, and yes some possible snow in areas as you head out for your birds celebration. Meteorologist chris sowers with those accuweather details. Snow . Lets get you to Storm Tracker 6. Were zoomed into Lancaster County. I was just looking at observations. The only two areas that are reporting any kind of snowfall are harrisburg and york. It wouldnt surprise me if some location here in Lancaster County, in particular lancaster, oxford, seeing a few flurries but this is very, very light stuff and 80 is not even reaching the ground. The wider view shows moisture to the west. In time what happens air off the atlantic pushing inland and it will quickly go over to rain. You can see it actually advancing to the west already over the last couple of frames. See this over the last 15, 25 minutes you can see it already starting. So it will be very, very brief if you do pick up that snow west of philadelphia. Then its just a cold rain for most of the storm here. So what to expect from the poconos, youll see snow, 24 inches before mixing over to sleet and freezing rain late this afternoon and evening. The Lehigh Valley far north west suburbs, it will start out as snow for a brief period of time, a coating to an inch and that goes over to rain. And for the i95 metro area, its a cold rain. Your impact scale looks like this. Its quiet around morning and right around lunchtime the first drops begin in philadelphia and from that point on it is a heavy, soaking and driv
