We see it out our window here. Along with this rain were in for cold . Yeah, the colds coming after the rain. But the rain right now in some areas is kind of heavy especially through philadelphia and wilmington and the major interstates. So not good timing, right in the middle of the evening rush. Very slow going im sure on 95, areas like 676, 295. This is a lot of heavy rainfall where the reds and oranges and yellows are. Were seeing that across philadelphia, morristown into Burlington County moving through the philadelphia area so it will continue to slide into new jersey. But areas like wilmington continuing to see that heavier rainfall and its only going to get heavier for will ming son. You notice the darker shades moving into northern new castle county, crossing the major interstates likes 495 and 95. This stretches down into baltimore and washington. So now were going to really track this line of heavier shower, thats going to move into areas like symrna, dover 7 00, milford at 7 35 and Atlantic City by 8 00 p. M. We still have quite a few hours left of this rainfall moving in and again i showed you the reds and oranges that shows us the heavier rain. This line of rain is moving west to east. Well continue to see it move through new jersey and delaware the next few hours, but areas north and west of philadelphia, pretty much drying out at this point. Now this is all poart of a biggr storm system. The snow is timely starting to move out of new england. Were only going to deal with the rain from this but once the rain moves through its going to get a lot colder. So future weather taking the rain, mostly moving into new jersey and delaware by 7 00 become. Then a couple hours later most should be gone by about 8, 9 00. Then colder, we have a freeze warning out for part of the area. Ill show you who can expect that coming up. No criminal charges for former eagle lasean mccoy being investigated for that bar fight that involved two offduty Philadelphia Police officers. This video shows the chaos that unfolded back in february at the recess lounge. Two offduty Police Officers were hurt. According to the drix attorney it started over a bottle of champagne. There were conflicting accounts of what happened. We had no sufficient evidence who initiated it, we had evidence that would conclude that people could conclude that people were being justified in trying to protect their friend. We believe this was enough charge there is to warrant an arrest, everybody else that was involved in the case also believed that. The union is looking at different Legal Options moving forward. The video shows that there was Construction Equipment on the track and work train equipment on the track immediately adjacent to the amtrak train track. Thats what the ntsb had to say about 30 minutes ago about the deadly train derailment. Tim has an update. Tim . Reporter theyni wrapped up that briefing.

Take a look, the ntsb says that southbound train was traveling at 106 Miles Per Hour at the time of the collision just under the 110 speed limit. The engineer put the train into emergency mode five seconds before. It wasnt enough to reduce the severity of the impact, the operator of the backhoe and another veteran amtrak employee were killed. The camera recorded everything. We know at that time the crew was working with an equipment lane that basically picks up the gravel from up ter the track. Im told that this is considered a fairly routine operation. The ntsb says something in the process didnt work as it was supposed to. We have secured all of the communication downloads and equipment and will be reviewing that. I have to stress that there is a lot of data and a lot of information that investigators in our laboratory in washington, d. C. Will be sifting through. Reporter im told the investigation could take months. We got the names of the two killed, joe carter from wilmington, delaware and peter adamovich.

This is heavy rain shown around cherry hill, philadelphia to west deptford, upper darby, the heavier rain across 676 and 95, up toward trenton, seeing lighter rain right now.

Also 95 and 495 theres heavier rain. Now its starting to spread and its going to continue to spread because we have heavier rain off to the west thats moving in this direction. If youre in delaware or other sections of south jersey like atlantic county, Cape May County and you havent seen the rain, this line is going to continue to move through so everyone will see the rain. The only area thats clearing up is the north and west of philadelphia and through the lehigh valley. This is going to continue to slide in. You can expect by 7 , milford 750, beach haven closer to 8 15. A few more hours of this, not until after 8, 9 p. M. Or so. You see the line moving through. Its new jersey and delaware that can expect some of the heaviest. The coldest air is to the north but as the rain leaves temperatures are going to be dropping to freezing. Here is future weather. The rain continues to move through. Along the shore the last ones to hold on. This is 10 00 tonight. The mottles are trying to throw in a brief period. Temperatures on the ground would be well above freezing. Then overnight, early tomorrow morning temperatures drop below freezing so in the 20s through a good portion of the area. At the same time its going to get windy. We had 70degree temperatures in dover. So as far as any slippery roads are concerned because of the rain tonight and the cold air coming. Be careful as youre driving. Temperatures through the afternoon only in the mid to low 40s. Like i mentioned thats going to issue a freeze warning, new jersey and delaware.
