Developing Hurricane Matthew is bearing down on haiti generatorring lifethreatening winds and pouring as much as 40inches of rain in isolated spots. The outer bands of the category four storm have already caused street flooding and forced evacuations. Many people in poor villages will not leave because theyre afraid of looters. Matthew has also brought heavy rain to jamaica. The storm has cuba in its sights next and florida is already under a state of emergency. And a lot of people david are wondering eventually will we see a lot of rain around here. It all depends on the track and its too soon to say but if it were to happen it looks like sunday and maybe into monday morning, saturday night, sunday, monday morning. Track and timing still a little bit uncertain. Storm tracker6 live double scan shows now rain right now. We have a tranquil morning way grassy water on the Delaware River as we look at the battleship new jersey. Thats because there isnt much wind out there. Its a few degrees cooler than yesterday. Were at 61 degrees and your dewpoint at 58 not all that humid. Winds light at 6 miles per hour. Some of you might encounter little patchy fog out there this morning but it doesnt look as bad as yesterday so far. Future tracker6 shows well start out with sunshine but by plan to i think were clouding up in most neighborhoods and there might be some drizzle and a little spot he tea sprinkle or shower particularly south side and east of philadelphia. And then by 6 oclock, we may return some sunshine later in the afternoon early evening. And later at night i expect to cloud up a little bit at least temporarily and by tomorrow morning there could be some more fog. Temperatures today a little cooler but not bad. 60 degrees by 8 oclock. 67 by 10 oclock. 69 degrees for your lunch hour and then 71 is your high at about 3 oclock so numbers really not moving too far this afternoon. By 5 oclock were probably back down to 69 degrees and again well call it mostly cloudy with some sunny breaks overall today. Cover a little bit more sun to start out. 71 degrees is your lie high in philadelphia. Similar numbers in lancaster. 70 in millville a little cooler, 66 this afternoon in cape may. Hurricane matthew is doing exactly what we expected it to do. Its a category four major hurricane really battering this morning the country of haiti which is still recovering from that earthquake back in 2010 and previous flooding from previous hurricanes as well. It looks like the storm still clips the eastern edge of cuba. It is still a category four as it comes up through the turks and caicos and the southern bahamas as we head in through the day on wednesday. And then finally becomes a category three in the northern bahamas and friday overnight into saturday morning its very close to the coast of florida becoming a category two. Actually stale three and, still a three and then a two as it comes up by georgia. Latest projections sunday overnight has the storm coming off the coast of North Carolina and the question is where it goes from there. It does look on the spaghetti plot models these tracks are a little closer to the coast than they were yesterday. Most of them nearby. Some far enough by sea where they would have less of an impact. Some inland which would be better over all. Whats very likely is that well see rough surf and dangerous rip currents probably on saturday sunday and maybe monday as well. Whats still unknown is that exact track when it gets off the coast of the carolinas and the exact timing but were thinking saturday night sunday and maybe monday would be the impactful days if the storm is close enough to us. 71 today, mostly cloudy, a little drizzle. Partly sunny and nice on wednesday. Thursday, friday, also looking nice in the mid 70s and then okay on saturday morning but clouds should increase either way no matter what the track of the storm is and if the track of matthew is close enough late in the day or at Night Saturday we could see some rain and then sunday would be a rain day if the storm is close enough probably pretty windy, too. And then on monday accuweather feels like the storm may be gone by them. Im kind of hedging my bets because we just dont know how fast on the thing is going to be. Hopefully we clear out by monday but well see. Thank you david.
