Lets look at what else we have going on here. Temperatures for the most part this afternoon in the low 80s. Philadelphia, 82, 83 towards the lehigh valley. As weve seen the last several days, cooler towards the southwest wind and 71 in summers point. 69 degrees towards Atlantic City but 78 degrees further inland towards mays landing. We have showers and thunderstorms we are now tra tracking. As you head to tomorrow you will see it toward the gulfcoast. It will take a little bit as we get into this less humid air in the high plains and wont be until this cold front moved tomorrow and with that will come the thunderstorms. In lancaster and berks county, tomorrow conditions are looking more and more favorable for development of strong to severe stock market, damaging winds, hail and heavy rain as well and cant even rule out an isolated tornado although thats the lowest risk. Highest risk is damaging winds through the passage of that front. Through tonight, scattered showers and through 11 00, a heavier shower in parts of carbon and monroe counties. Generally scattered maybe loc locally heavy but its later in the day we see things ramp up. Heres 6 00, that line of storms right along the i 95 corridor, moving through with strong widse an heavy rain and could be an instance at 2 00, things are looking pretty good but two hours later things can change quickly. Things are pushing offshore and this will be a quick mover in a quite a bit of time. A big rain mover and im thi thinking any flooding is probably going to be localized, something you want to keep an eye out for as you head to your sunday. Stormy into the weekend, temperatures on the warm side, 82 in philadelphia. On the humid side, its not going to be until later in the overnight hours we get that front to finally move through and with that we improve conditions big time moving to monday. 84 degrees the high, sunshine and less humid and chance of showers tuesday and through the week again definitely make sure youre tuned to the weather as conditions will be changing very quickly as we head to your sunday afternoon and evening.
