frame and then it stays a little sticker as we move into the latter part of the week with thunderstorm chances in the offing. for tomorrow, the main threat is well to the west of our area, primarily for some gusty winds, there could be some hail and also heavy downpours. satellite and radar right now showing you this area of high pressure. it's a heat pump. we have the clockwise pinned winds. so winds coming in out of the south and west pumping in that moisture as well as humidity and as we roll the clock through the day tomorrow, pretty dry but then late tomorrow evening we're looking at the threat for a few pop up showers and storms and it looks like most of the activity is not really going to arrive until we move into the wednesday overnight, thursday early morning time frame. here's 2:00 a.m. watching for some of those scattered showers and thunderstorms moving through the area which, again, some of them could be severe. then staying a little unsettled throughout the day on thursday. here's thursday at 2:00 p.m. as a front pulls through the area. you can see scattered showers and thunderstorms. but diminishing as we move into

field with the players until a certain time. now the -- don't ask me why. the coaches can only be on the field for that certain time while they practice. yes, that's joke, too. but the offense is something that's not a joke and again big part of this team and we know the season for nick foles, we know this is his starting quarterback but there are some that still question his arm strength. >> i don't think you have to have an arm that can throw the ball 100 yards. i think that you obviously have to be able to throw a football and be able to spin it in all different climates, but, you know, it's really all about timing and understanding where to go with the ball. there's lot of guys that have great arms that aren't playing because it takes more than that. you have to understand defenses. you have to understand timing and how to move in the pocket. there's lot more things everybody talks about arm strength. you have to have an arm that can throw accurately. >> nick has great command of what we're doing offensively to kind of -- you can just see it there's a lot more confidence in

how he's playing and now it's just matter of refining the little things. >> phillies pitcher cliff lee through off a bullpen mound today for the first time since his injury on may 18th. he through 20 pitches close to the max for him in terms of strength. phillies play again tonight in atlanta after an extra inning win last night. >> the world cup lasts forever. still round one. to brazil. belgium in red. belgium is a big favorite. 80th minuteth of this game drace will score. belgium wins. i was worried about belgium there, too. they win two to one. i was concerned because -- >> yeah, right. >> i was happy for belgium. >> i'm glad. >> i'm happy that we're in the 90s and we'll there there for another day. >> this is your type of weather. yes, it is. it can be dangerous. there's a heat advisory that kicks in tomorrow afternoon and evening. feels like temperatures approaching 100 degrees. >> wow! that does it for us here tonight at 6:00 o'clock.
