Glenn, we are not going to get a break from those chilly temperatures. At least not tonight. Yeah thats right. And certainly hope the peaches survive. Love peaches. One of the few fruits i can actually eat. Weve got a freeze warning in effect for much of the area overnight tonight. That means the actual temperature going to 32 or below. Less wind. Not only tonight but for the entire weekend for a change. And were tracking southern rain, especially delaware and perhaps Cape May County. Still windy out there as you can see hasnt really let up much. 56 degrees 18mileanhour winds gusting to 29, the humidity is very low. 19 . And that will help the temperature drop. As soon as the wind starts dropping, that will happen right after sunset right around 8 00 and the temperature will be down into the 40s by midnight. Some places down into the 30s. And by 6 00 a. M. , of course, in philadelphia, were down to 34 but maybe even in the 20s in some of the suburbs. Its pretty uniform now in the mid50s because its still pretty windy. But its 41 at mt. Pocono. Just how cold the air mass is. The wind direction is still the same as its been. But look at the gusts. Still close to 30 miles an hour. In a good bit of the area. But in a couple of hours, that is going to change dramatically, i think. The freeze warning, 2 to 8 00 a. M. For most of the area the frost advisory for the rest of the area. So that means just about everybody is going to have to take some kind of protection for the outdoor sensitive plants and flowers. Down to 32 in west chester and mt. Holly, 34 in dover, 28 degrees in vineland. Now, were going to be seeing some showers that are coming back from the west. That is going to track south of the area. The storm is not going to come at us directly. But were going to be on the Northern Edge and so that means the best chance of any kind of rain is in delaware. That would be saturday night and sunday morning. For the rest of the night, were going to be seeing mostly clear skies, the freeze and the frost, 34 in philadelphia 28 in some of the suburbs. Much less wind tomorrow and sunday, by the way. Upper 50s to near 60. Despite mostly cloudy sky. And the 7day forecast that rain in delaware especially southern delaware and in Cape May County perhaps. Monday, chance of some showers, just about anywhere, but its also windy and kind of cool and we dont really warm up until tuesday and wednesday, and then we have a chance of a coastal storm developing on thursday, bringing some rain.
