Last night he drove to his victory rally as you saw in his hometown of york in his trademark jeep. He told supporter that is Public Education will be his top on his agenda. Our ancestors realized that education was the key to a strong citizenship, to a strong democracy, to a strong economy, to Strong Families and we needed to invest in that. We need to make sure that we resurrect that idea here in pennsylvania and make sure that education is at the top of the list, not the bottom.

Fairly comfortable in most neighborhoods. Were at 55 degrees right now in philadelphia. The winds in the city at 10 Miles Per Hour. The last time they took this snapshot reading at the airport but in most cases weve seen anywhere from single digit winds around five down to nothing so the wind is not a big issue out there for you in general. Theres that little shower activity out to the west. Looks like it wants to try and fall apart before it gets here but if we do see something a little later this morning as i mentioned it will be quick and light. Today is a general idea is going to be an increase in clouds and mild air again for the afternoon. By 8 oclock, 56. By 11 oclock, though, up to 63 and then by 2 oclock, thats your high, 68 degrees and well be back down to 63 by 5 oclock. Again, very mild for this time of year in philadelphia. And High Temperatures showing a little bit of a range today. Well only get up to about 64 in trenton and toms river, 65 in allentown and then theres that 68 in areas closer to philadelphia and 65 to 66 your range down along the coast. Tomorrow morning it looks like theres going to be some new rain moving in. Now, this will be rain that could be steady at times as it plows through during the morning rush hour. This is a brands new model run. Were only going for about a half inch to an inch of rain total out of this and during the day there is the chance that we actually see kind of a lull in the action. Then we go into tomorrow night and theres the chance for a few more sprinkles and showers so not a lot of rain out there but if we do manage to get a steady downpour for at least a little while, especially during that morning area where theres more rain, keep in mind that there are lots of leaves out there along the sides of the streets and those could very easily block storm drains and give you a little bit of a spray or problem slowing down in those intersections. Also if you have a lot of leaves in the gutter again just in case theres a steady portion of this storm, you might want to try and clean them out if youve got some gutters that are low lying and easy to get to. Your exclusive accuweather 7day, today not a bad day, 68 degrees. Sun will give way to increasing clouds and then tomorrow, cloudy skies with periods of off and on rain probably wont be raining all the day. And 61 is the high. And then friday windy and cooler, 55 degrees, a real blustery wind and there could be some lingering showers around. For the weekend sun gives way to clouds again on saturday, a cool high of 52. And then sunday mainly cloudy thanks to a coastal system that will probably dish a couple of showers in. At this point it looks like most of the steady rain from that holds. That holds. offrord.
