We will see how far we will get, in the meantime it is a five, five out of 10, we have rain on the way, buddy celebrating the flyers win of course with his cap but also bringing umbrella along get ready for rain because it is on the way. Do you see there in the central part of the state, nothing much happening locally yet but these roadways may be wet before too long. 50 degrees. Wow, mild morning. We will get to 62. Your trade off is a rainy afternoon. Heaviest of what we will get will fall later in the day and get ready for very cold temperatures, after that, that blast of arctic air bob kelly, it is on the way. On the way, grab your mittens, gloves, 6 02, good morning an accident in bensalem along the 95 north bound it is on ramp from street road to go north on i95 a busy stretch up there so just be careful. They are allowing the cars to start moving on by so instead of two lanes we are down to one. That will cause a back up in bensalem as you roll north. And then you need a sofa, couch maybe a love seat . Sock like that, north on the extension it is in the left lane just north of mid county. Got a skidmark in there but throw a blanket over it. Be careful. Hello, delco we can see red way this morning. No fog but as sue mentioned we have rain on the way so be ready for that for the afternoon. Looking live downtown vine street expressway in problems here mass transit off to a good start as well. Mike and alex, back over to you. Push to get rid of the bulletproof barriers inside these Corner Stores here in philadelphia just got passed another hurdle. Steve, explain this to me how did this even get started. Reporter despite Christmas Spirit look all around city hall here, 200 protesters who spent most of the day here feel like the city is taking instead of in the giving mood this Christmas Season after their pleas were ignored and Council Committee pass aid bill to power the cities licenses and Inspection Department to regulate that thick plexiglas bullet resistant barricade between many customers, cash registers and cooks and clerks in these stores and the owners and so many philadelphia Neighborhood Stores have them, that served food and alcohol. I think plexiglas has to come down. Most important thing is our safety and public safety. If the glass comes down the crime rail witt rise and there will be a lot of dead bodies. We want to make sure that there isnt this sort of inn dignity in my opinion to serving food through a plexiglas only in certain neighborhood. Reporter many of the 230 asian beer deli owners in this city feel like they are singled out. They were among those protesting against this bill but it got passed anyway. So alex and mike full council vote set for a week on thursday from all this and december 14th you can bet they will be thinking that as i a big lum of coal in their christmas stocking. I guess. Im just not quite getting it. I hope that cindy bass will come in and explain to it me, just one on one. How did this come about. It sounds like both side feel is there discrimination, businesses that have the glass up, they say you are discriminating against them because it is certain types of businesses and then i guess shes saying it is only in certain neighborhood where they feel the need to have that glass. I got a, im getting there i hope you door.
