6:04 am
moving forward. just this week congressman john lewis talked about the fears when he questioned the president-elect's legitimacy. donald trump promising to be a president for all americans. i asked renee amoore, the deputy chair for the republican party howed president can pull the people together. >> actions speak so much louder than words. that's what we have to do, we have to act and do the right thing and get it done. and the promises that he made. he also to follow up on those promises. and he can't do it right away. everything can't happen in the first 100 days. let me be clear, everybody. everybody wants all of these things to happen. you can't do ten things. you got to focus on a couple things and people will start feeling better. >> perhaps the biggest concern is about is people's health care. still ahead, i asked renee amoore what she and the trump team are doing now ahead of the inauguration to replace the affordable care act. meanwhile, we're hearing

6:06 am
election. >> we will end the sanctuary city. >> reporter: this time, donald trump will be the only second commander in chief who never held an elected office or served in the military prior to taking the oath of office. >> republicans and democrats are postured, i think, already. and president trump is on an island of his own. even within his republican party, that everyone is behind him. >> reporter: houseal is hoping trump will use friday's inaugural address to re-energize supporters, as well as reach out to the 52% of americans who according to the nbc news/"wall street journal" poll disapprove of how he handled the transition. >> i think he won the presidency because he spoke to the people that no one else is speaking to. and so, in his inaugural speech, i'd like him to address those people who feel like they've
6:07 am
been left behind. >> reporter: and one of the other things that tim wanted to emphasize is the important of supporting the president-elect. he says, he doesn't want to see the visi divisions here on capitol hill. he'd want to see lawmakers come together and support president trump and really allow him to put forth some of the proposals he proposed during the campaign trail. >> all right, thank you, pam. part of our washington coverage. pamela osborne. >> and we will continue our live team coverage. right now, i want to get you updated on the weather with nbc10's meteorologist bill h henley with the most accurate forecast. >> our skies are clearing out a nice breeze is blowing. that's dry air moving in. we will see no wet weather. remember, yesterday morning, we started at rain at the shore. completely dry for cape may. it's getting a bit cooler with skies clearing out.

6:35 am
for the presidency. that's the lowest ever rating for an incoming president. only 44% of americans approve, down six points from just a month ago. but will he be able to win over that majority? we talked to dr. james hilty, a history professor at temple. here's what he believes has to happen in order for trump to gain the support of the masses and lawmakers here on capitol hill. >> presidents can do a lot. but you need a lot of help as well. and whether or not he's going to get that help much depends on his ability to eat a little humble pie from time to time. and go to the opposition. and the opposition sometimes is the thing within his own party. i think the power of the presidency is the power to persuade. you cannot command. you cannot essentially tell people what they're going to do.
6:36 am

6:37 am
talked to her saying she's been talking to people trying to ease their concerns. >> it's okay. people aren't going to lose out everything right away. we really have to look at that. right now, i'm writing a report, pulling things together and meet with the setcretary of human services and we'll be able to come down january 21st and start working. >> as for the time frame for a new health care plan, amoore thinks it will be a few months before it's ready to go before congress. for january standards, this is pretty mild. i've been checking the nbc10 app. it's 43, 45 degrees. we're lucky. >> we're on a rooftop where it's probably 20 degrees colder up here. they're also expecting rain in the forecast, apparently. but let's go back in the studio and check in with bill henley for the "first alert" forecast. the most accurate forecast. bill. >> you will not see rain today
6:38 am
in d.c. tomorrow say different story. umbrellas will be going up in our area as well. but not today. the temperatures will be going up today. look at the skies. clearing out right now. a few clouds overnight. that helped us stay milder overnight. temperatures really didn't get all that cold. right now, i'm looking at a mild start and a sunny day. a few high clouds, mostly sunshine. grab your sunglasses, you'll definitely need them. tonight, it's going to going to get chillier. clear skies. no sign of wet weather. 45 degrees in philadelphia. a dry wind coming outside of the northwest with sunshine, 48 degrees in philadelphia. but we will warm into the 50s this afternoon. 51 degrees at 2:00. still in the low 50s with a few high clouds returning at 4:00. the suburbs 39 now. look at that warmup, bright sunny skies. you see a warmup in the lehigh valley.
6:39 am
there's some scattered clouds. they'll pan out. and the temperatures come out a little bit more but not by much. 8:00, they start to climb. sunshine is going to feel warmer than that. we didn't see the sunshine yesterday in new jersey but the clouds are already thinning out, 47 degrees at noon time. 50 degrees at 2:00. near 50 degrees at the shore. it's not as cold to start with. 43 degrees right now. 48 degrees at noon. then 49 degrees at 2:00 this afternoon. into the 50s for delaware. 43 right now. look at the sunshine. this morning, this afternoon. just a few scattered clouds and that's it. but clouds will return to the area. overnight tonight will be clear. this is 6:30 this evening. look how clear it is into tomorrow morning. but during the day tomorrow, the clouds start to move in from the southwest. and to the southwest, that's where we're going to see the first rain of the day. that's at 7:00 in the morning. it starts dry in philadelphia, wilmington, baltimore and d.c. but here cummings the shower
6:40 am
activity at 11:00 in philadelphia. you can see at that hour, some rain showers getting close to d.c., too. there's a possibility of some light showers, first thing in the morning at 9:00, and a chance, just a chance of some scattered showers at noon time. 45 degrees for the swearing in. and then the parade route will likely be dry. 47 degrees at 3:00 tomorrow afternoon. the weekend, well, we've got more rain. i'll take a look at that when i come back with the ten day on ten in ten minutes. good morning, everyone. jessica boyington with a check on the roads. i want to go over a few accidents across the area. 95 right around 413. this is over in bristol. it's on the northbound side. a few vehicles involved here also now with police activity on the scene. again, that's the northbound side, taking out the right and then the shoulder over to the northbound traffic is starting to be down to one lane. so, we're seeing delays there on the northbound side. also, watching a tractor

trailer-involved accident on the p.a. turnpike extension north. mild post 21. we're also watching the crashing in westchester on 842. south creek road at blue rock road. watch for traffic being directed around the scene there. i'll update on the rest of the majors and the schuylkill drive times when i come back. 6:41. our inauguration live coverage from washington, d.c. continues. >> of course, we know twitter has been a big story line for donald trump. up next, what we might expect once he becomes president. plus, another news making headlines. including a heist in one of philadelphia's busiest shopping districts that terrorized a clerk and a customer inside.
6:45 am
donald trump is thanking wounded warriors for their service this morning. he tweeted out the photos at the meeting with service members in washington, d.c. last night. it is one of the finals before becoming president. taking to twitter, trump said he will maintain his personal twitter even after he becomes president. >> yeah, but an nbc news/"wall street journal" poll finds only 9% of americans liked his use of twitter. i talked with joe watkins about president-elect and the use of social media and what we can expect going forward. >> donald trump likes to be very independent. he likes to tweet. remember, it's the usage of social media that really won him the presidency. so donald trump is somebody that's looking to avoid press
6:46 am
interference. press spins, negative spins on what he's saying. so he's using social media to talk directly to the american public. i wouldn't be surprised if he looks for other social media platforms to be more unfiltered in the way he talked to americans. >> meantime, first lady michelle obama is getting kind of sentimental on to wit are. >> yeah, she tweeted this photo of her and president obama looking at the washington monument. saying being your first lady has been the honor of a lifetime from the bottom of my heart. thank you. of course, in the tradition of all presidencies, he'll grant clemency. >> president obama's final act as president of the united states. coming up, we'll continue our coverage and have a wrap-up from washington here. right now, we send to to nbc10's
