Its been cool, but its going to get even cooler. Live pictures, sunshine in the philadelphia area, 83 degrees. Humidity is up a little bit, so it feels like 85. But the temperature is 2 degrees lower than it was at this time yesterday. 83 in allentown, 83 2 in redding, 82 in west chester, 81 in dover. And 78 Atlantic City at the airport. What about at the beaches . Well, the beaches are going to be kind of cool for many days now. In the 70s. Today 70s with sunshine. But as we go toward friday, its going to be 70s with cloud cover. So that is going to be a different story. Now, here we are dropping across much of the area, but back to the west things are changing. Now this was a very strong line, a lot of lightning, heavy rain. We had flood warnings in State College but it has really weakened as it has moved to the east. There are other areas back to the west in ohio so, thats not the only threat, but for the short term it is the more significant threat and futurecasts do not show it staying intact as it moves to the east through our area. So, yeah, we have a chance of some showers coming up this evening, but were not talking about anything as heavy as they got in State College. And then tomorrow more widespread showers, especially during the afternoon, and then as we get into friday we have an east wind along with an upper air disturbance, so theres going to be rain in a lot of the area on friday and its going to be cool at the shore, showers and storms tomorrow. A cool, cloudy day on friday with chance of some rain. But drying out on saturday. Sunday looks dry. But, again, temperatures kind of cool for this time of the year.

For tonight, scattered showers developing, 70 degrees for the low in philadelphia during the day tomorrow. Showers and storms, especially during the afternoon and evening, could affect the eagles game. Temperatures about the same as what we saw today. More showers on friday. Clear, cool temperatures. Drying out saturday, starting off with clouds and maybe some sunshine later and a lot of sunshine starting on sunday, temperatures gradually going up.

Nbc 10 first alert radar showing whats happening over the field in williamsport right now. Lets check in again with Sheena Parveen live from storm force 10 in williamsport. Less than three hours to go, what do you think . All right, renee. Well, i have to tell you the weather has improved a lot over the past hour, but it was really bad earlier. Rained for a couple hours, quite a bit, quite heavy at times. This is why we brought storm force 10 out here. This is our brandnew mobile weather center. Storm force 10 can pretty much show us everything. Take a look at the instruments on top. We can measure wind, rainfall, temperatures, humidity, anything you want to know, and we also of course have the first alert radar here on storm force 10. As i zoom in for you, around williamsport, we have really seen things clearing up a lot. We had a big band of rain move through earlier, some heavy at times. Of course with all the instruments on top we can measure realtime weather, 77 degrees right now. The humidity is at 82 , the winds fairly light in from the westsouthwest. And its all coming from the top of the weather vehicle. So storm force 10 really is a nice mobile weather center. We can see from where the rain is across the area. We can see that the rain has really cleared out for now although we could have a few more showers left in tonights forecast. For more on your local forecast, well be back here in a bit too. Over the chief meteorologist glenn hurricane schwartz with a look at the timing on our storm. Glenn . Yes, sheena, i think the wettest period is going to be later on thursday and into friday. What is coming our way i think is going to be weakening over the next several hours. Its dry across much of our area now as it has been. This band of rain, thunderstorms with it, flooding at State College, but this is already weakening and it is expected to continue to weaken. Whats behind it, a few showers western pennsylvania, eastern ohio so, yeah, as shee shih that mentioned there could be a shower or two at that game. But nothing too substantial. You can see for the futurecast, for the rest of the night, not much going on here. So those showers really weaken, but tomorrow we get an increase, much more moisture around tomorrow, more humid, wind coming in off the ocean, and there will be showers around, maybe a thunderstorm. Then on friday, the east wind picks up and we get more rain across the area. This particular model brings some pretty heavy rain into parts of delaware and then it actually starts to dry out from the east. Speaking of the east, some developments in the tropics east of the caribbean, nothing too well developed yet but a lot of computer models developed this and bring it in the general direction of the United States as we go into next weekend. As you can see with this future model here as it goes through the Dominican Republic and perhaps toward the bahamas. But its got a long way to go. There are very unfavorable conditions for this time of the year down in the caribbean for development. For tonight, we have scattered showers, no big thunderstorms, no torrential rain, 70 degrees in philadelphia, 65 north and west. Tomorrow we expect more activity, showers and thunderstorms, maybe a couple showers in the morning, more activity in the afternoon, highs in the low to mid80s. And the sevenday forecast, way aboveaverage temperatures here, more showers on friday, maybe some steady rain in some areas. So thats kind of a nasty day. Saturday we could start off with clouds and then gradually improve. And once the sun comes back, weve got a really nice pattern here, although its going to gradually get warmer toward the middle of next week. Breaking news to tell you about.
