You might recall the former Army Intelligence analyst spent several years in prison for leaking classified information. Manning has filed to run as a democrat and is one of four candidates taking on senator ben cardin in the primary. The search continues for survivors in montecito california, five days new after heavy rain triggered a deadly mudslide. Seven people are still missing and at least 18 have now been confirmed dead. Though officials expect that number to rise even higher. Much of the Coastal Community remains under evacuation orders while Search Rescue and Recovery Efforts are under way. We are trying to mobilize all of the resources at this moment to help the worker, the business owner, the homeowner, the renter, everyone thats been impacted right now. We have the army corps of engineers whose spur to come in and shore up all the infrastructure and build and assist local governments and clean up debris and also helping rebuild. Well, fishes are working very quickly as the threat of rain this coming friday could hamper efforts even more. And getting wet and cold all for a great cause. We are taking you along for the Polar Bear Plunge in wildwood. Cbs3 photojournalist matt mariano is that out there, also hundreds of other took a dip to raise money for the Special Olympics of new jersey. Looks like everybody had a fun frigid time. Im getting cold just looking at them. Yikes. I know and that cold air moved in so quickly this morning. Yeah. We were in the 30s in no time and i think it felt even colder, natasha, because we were spoiled yesterday with temperatures in the 60s and todays official High Temperature actually 61 degrees. Now that did happen just after midnight. Youre like what. Wait a minute. The numbers tumbled after that. A cold front moved through and in no time we dropped into the 30s and now down in rehoboth weve dropped into the 20s. Heres a look at our live neighborhood network. Earlier this morning these boards were completely soaked from the rain we received yesterday and last night. Most areas picked up anywhere from one to 2 inches of rain. And now we have that wind out of the northnorthwest at 19 Miles Per Hour so thats helped to dry off some of those boards. And look, weve got dry air across storm scan3. High pressure has moved on in. Were dealing with mostly clear skies here at home and well deal with clear skies even as we head into the overnight hours tonight. That storm system that brought us all of that rain has moved off to the north and east and the cold air filtered in right behind it. 29 degrees right now in philadelphia. Its 26 in wilmington. 29 in millville. Down the shore temperatures in the 30s. Its 30 in atlantic city, 31 in wildwood. Of course it feels much colder, though, with the wind. Right now wind speeds coming out of the north and west anywhere from about 15 to even 20, 25 Miles Per Hour, all depending on where you live and that is contributing to a wind chill factor in the teens for most. Right now feels more like 16 degrees in philadelphia and in wilmington. Feels like 18 degrees in millville and allentown feeling like the Single Digits and in the poconos its already feeling like 9 degrees below zero. Heading into the overnight hours tonight, in the poconos it will feel as cold as five below zero to even 15 below zero from time to time. But wind chill advisory has been issued for carbon and monroe counties. Goes into effect at 9 oclock tonight lasting through 10 oclock tomorrow morning. But you know what, it makes sense because we have entered the coldest time of the year on average. That actually began yesterday and lasts through the 25th of january with the average high right around 40 degrees but we are going to be completely below that for the next five days. 32 degrees on monday, 36 tuesday. Were back into the 20s on wednesday. Then 33 degrees as we head into thursday. And that is all courtesy of a big drop in the jet stream. That has allowed us to pull in that chillier air, big old dip but its not going to last too long. You got to hang in there because by the upcoming weekend, so next weekend we are looking at another thaw heading our way. We just got to get through this week and with this cold air in place, we are tracking a clipper system heading into tuesday and wednesday and that could actually bring us a little bit of snow. Generally talking about light accumulation. Some of the higher amounts north and west but a dusting to one, 2inches will be possible as this clipper system moves in. Starting out the week we are dry and we are cold. Heres your forecast for tonight. As we head into the overnight hours, we drop into the teens. But it will feel more like the Single Digits breezy clear and much colder. Tomorrow a High Temperature around 27 degrees. That chill has certainly returned. Winter has returned with a vengeance. 32 degrees as we head into monday. Were at 36 on tuesday. Again, some light snow will be possible and it could start as early as monday night. Still working out the details with that. Couple flurries lingering around by wednesday morning. 33 on thursday and then, guys, i know youre going to like this. 40 on friday. 46 on saturday. So, just hang in there. Well make it above average again. It will happen. It gets better. Slowly but surely. Thank you so much chelsea. Appreciate that. Im trying to keep track of the game. I know, on your phone while youre on air. Speaking of Getting Better the birds have gotten as this game has gone on.
