People are heading southbound then on 130 down to the burlington bristol bridge but its quite the crowd. Just 4 Miles Per Hour there. So, you really need to think outside the box. Stay as far away from that turnpike connector bridge as you can this afternoon. Maybe the tacony palmyra or betsy ross bridges or stay up on route one the not so super highway all throw by now that is pretty busy. 95 and the scudder falls bridge might be one of your best bets although there was an accident on 95 in bucks county, southbound approaching street road but now its off to the side so starting to move a little better there. Here on the northbound side of 95 in fishtown, theres a broken down truck taking out the right lane here in the work zone so thats why that penn truck is sitting right there taking out the right lane.

The crash we just told you about on the kelly drive in Fairmount Park that just cleared. The kelly drive just reopened so go ahead and use that at this point.

Thornily says pill mind boxes which dont have child safety caps are often in grandparents homes and are especially worrisome. They leave it on the Kitchen Table or counter because thats something that for them that they its a he replanted to take every day.

Looking at 70s maybe 80 degrees and then a big drop for halloween but halloween looking pretty nice out there. Okay. Lets talk about the good. We got storm tracker6 live double scan showing not a whole lot here on this friday. This friday was a pretty windy day but the action cam in center city pretty artistic shot here, liberty one in the background and this is near city hall. And you can see sun and clouds mixing through the atmosphere. If you noticed the clouds today they were moving pretty quickly with those winds out of that northwesterly direction with speeds of close to 30, 40 miles an hour. As we look at temperatures right now, 50s acrosstheboard with the exception of the poconos at 39 degrees right now. Lower 50s Lehigh Valley and trenton. Mid50s philadelphia all the way to the shore where the ocean temperature now is down to 60 degrees. Wind speeds again theyre slowly coming down from earlier today. 10 miles an hour in the Lehigh Valley. 17 in philadelphia. Nine in millville. Teens along the shore and the same for the western suburbs of philadelphia as well as the state of delaware around 14 miles an hour. Low pressure that brought the rain and mountain snows for new england continue to wraparound some of the extra moisture in maine in the form of rain and snow, so with that low north of austin and High Pressure to the south and west, between these two opposite forces you get that wind tunnel effect so it brought in the clear air but it did bring in those really chilly winds but eventually its going to relax as that high settles to the south and the low pushes away. So for tonight winds diminish down to about four to 8 miles an hour. Its a chilly but clear night near freezing for the Lehigh Valley, 36 in trenton, 37 in millville, 40s along the shore and the same for dover and philadelphia. Low pressure a new low will be riding just to the north of the great lakes here at the beginning of the weekend. Fronts are well off to our north and that heat pump of a high will continue to build those southwesterly winds here on saturday 70 degrees and were calling it a milky sky. Its not going to be perfectly blue. It is not going to be mostly cloudy but those thin veil of clouds that will kind of kind of dim the sun so to speak through much of the day but still a really nice one and then on sunday very warm, near record highs of 80 degrees. The old record 81 set back in 1946. The front will be slipping in from the north but very late in the day so we squeeze out mainly a dry day and then very late near the evening hours some rain will arrive from the north to the south. So, the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, 70 on saturday, 10 degrees better than that on sunday. Again, late showers Lehigh Valley, maybe between five and seven. The city after that. And then monday a halloween chill, 60 degrees. It is dry and looking good for the trickortreaters. Cool and calm 56 at 6 oclock. At 9 oclock 50 degrees and then a lot of clouds here with a southeasterly wind on tuesday of 62 and then its really pleasant as we pump those temperatures back up on wednesday of 72 degrees staying above average on thursday and the next chance for rain next week will come on friday. So, pretty flawless weekend overall. A little warm for fall. But no one is complaining. November is just a couple days away. That it is. Thank you. Thank you adam.
