5:40 am
it's a seven day forecast right now, but coming up you'll see those delays. we will indeed celebrate with sunshine today and again tomorrow. but wednesday, that's a great day to not have a parade. it is going to be a wash out and could start with some snow. right now just have to layer up. 31 degrees in the suburbs, 33 in delaware. just cold enough in chestnut hill, parkicide even in westmont area with some slippery spots. be on the safe side. we are clear. we'll see sunshine, a lot of it today. we won't get any of those snow showers. you see how quickly they're moving? that wind, we will feel that during the day today. this is what's happening right now. 34 in philadelphia. a the winds will be increasing.
5:41 am
that 24 mile an hour wind making it feel like it's in the teens. and right on through the day the wind is going to do its best to keep the temperatures down. the difference is for lots of sunshine. now, the best chance for that wet weather will be on wednesday for the entire area. for the rest of the week it's looking dry until we get to the weekend. saturday starts dry and temperatures will be climbing into the 40s, but there's a chance of some late day or evening showers for a few neighborhood, lehigh valley, jersey and jersey shore. and then we'll all get rainfall, but temperatures will stay mild on sunday. up to 51 degrees in new jersey. i'll show you how long that's going to last in the ten day on ten. >> something tells me those school delays may have a double purpose, those icy spots and the weather. >> they were like, well orb it's going to be awful.
5:42 am
stay home and be safe. heading out the door there there might be a few slippery spots. majors are okay. right now the boulevard and our cameras right around 17th street both look good. actually seeing a bit of delay here, which is odd. a second ago i had a vehicle off to had shoulder. it was there by itself, and now it's gone, too. but we do have a few accidents popping up. and also watching burlington township southbound side right near route 41 there's a crash near. if you're feeling nervous about it take 295. back to you guys. an important part of the eagles extended team about the importance of teamwork. and here's pamela live for us this morning. >> reporter: well, the shelves are stocked here with that new super bowl merchandise. and take a look at all the

gearing on up. this is look at the line in wilmington, delaware, where eagles fans sprinted to nearby sport stores to grab their super bowl lii champion merchandise as soon as that team lifted the trophy. >> pamela osborn live at a modells where this brand new gear is hitting the shelves and racks. >> reporter: and in some cases like this one it's just coming out of the box here. they have glasses, the underdog tees are back. but the reel thing people are coming in for is the super bowl
5:47 am
championship merchandise. and you can get one with a super bowl ring on the front as well. so a lot of people have been in here. there was a line forming before the store opened up at 5:00 this morning. everyone just trying to get pieces of a super bowl win to represent the eagles today. we actually talked to one dad who has a bar tending job. he didn't even go home last night. he came straight here as soon as they opened. take a listen to why and what he had on his mind. >> you know, because i worked, i didn't have a chance to hang out with my son and my daughter and my wife to watch the game. so i thought one way to make up for it was i could been home by 3:40, 3:45, why not wait until 5:00 and when they wake up in the morning to go to school daddy will have a super bowl shirt for them. >> reporter: and i think that
5:48 am
will make up for them not being able to hang out. >> dad of the year right there. >> yeah. >> you know, i sent a text message to my husband about an hour ago and said get up and please get to modells. we need some gear because fans already started picking up last night, vai. >> yeah, that's a good call for you. get ben to the store because the stuff you have there has to be put back on your desk. >> let's talk about the eagles and their families. some would say that's the difference that it's made for them. >> yeah, they feel like they're a family, and that's probably why it's so easy to love them. everyone so personable right up to wife pederson. take a look. genie, come here and give me a
5:49 am
hug. congratulations. how does it feel? >> oh, my god, it's amazing. >> were you guys sitting on pins and needles the entire way? late in the game, what were you thinking? >> yes. we got this. we got this, honey. we got it. >> genie, we love you. >> i love you. >> oh, my god. congratulations. >> pure joy. >> we got this, we got this. that's mom terry pederson, that's doug's mom. how about these guys? >> oh, my gosh, one of the night's memorable moments came after the game was won. confetti rained down onto our eagles. they relished in the moment. they were rolling in it, people were taking pictures with it. it's really kind of special when you're there, and we were in when it all came raining down on us.
5:50 am
>> people saw it and they were texting me from home -- they didn't ask me to bring gear back. they were saying grab some of that confetti and bring it back with you. >> there were a bunch of us doing it, and i said this is history right here. this is really important. and my phone blew up, too. one person said can you bring some back for my kid. somebody else please, if you can just bring back a handful. this means a lot to this sity. >> so tracy disappears and next thing i see she's walking across the field with a trash bag. and then we start picking up confetti. it was awesome. i hope we don't need a shovel back home, right? let's check in with meteorologist bill henley and find out what the weather's like back there. bill? very concerned about -- >> i don't have a chair. >> what's going on over there? >> let's do it.
5:51 am
>> the chair is just getting in. it was out celebrating. and why not? there's certainly lots to celebrate this morning. and not too much to worry about, but there are a few icy spots. we've got some school delays this morning, so if you're heading out the door right now, most of the area's doing just fine. it's finally easy being green. sunshine is going to be nice and bright. we're going to be layering up during the day. those icy spots this morning just a few pockets in the suburbs and lehigh valley. and that's where we're seeing the delays. up to about 50 delays so far. cold winds will be blowing all day long. so if you hit the layers of green you'll be fine today. wednesday it looks like it's going to be a soaker and may even start with a little bit of snow. temperatures starting in the 30s and slowly coming down this morning. lehigh valley and the suburbs, this is more likely where you're going to see pockets of ice. main roads have been treated, but you'll find some spots
5:52 am
turning the corner. if it looks like it's damp or got that sheen on it this morning, treat it like ice to start with. temperatures are in the 20s and lower 30s, just below freezing, just enough to make you bundle up this morning. but we will see lots of sunshine. and so in addition to those layers, you'll need your sunglasses today. those snow showers will miss us. in fact, nothing coming our way until we get to wednesday. and here's wednesday morning. 4:30 in the morning. a little bit of snow moving through baltimore. it moves through our area first thing, but mainly going to be a rain event wednesday. wednesday it looks like not a great day for any parade activity. pick any other day this week and we'll be just fine. 37 degrees this afternoon, we'll hit 44, and a bit of a mix in the morning and quickly changes over to rain on wednesday. and then we're dry for thursday and friday and most of the day
5:53 am
onsied will by dry. but clouds return. we could see some showers late saturday night, and sunday looks like it's going to be a rainy one. drying out with temperatures staying in the 40s next monday, tuesday and wednesday. all right, bill, thank you. just like that jessica's back on her feet. >> i just can't sit down. that's all it is, guys. who can really? no one can sleep either. just be warned. it's not too bad moving through center city on the majors. but if you're through center city on broad street there's a lot of cleanup there. a lot of extra cars, more cars than normal for how early it is, too. both cameras on the schuylkill and broad street back open following road closures last night, of course. and there are a few crashes. one right around marsh road and also watching mass transit.
5:54 am
