Return. The run yesterday was a delight. 5 30 on this wednesday july 26. Karen is off we have our gentleman of this morning, matt pelman and dave murphy. Good morning. Sounds like a winning weather wednesday. I think mostly. Were off to kind of a cloudy start. Storm tracker6 live double scan shows you there are an couple of showers out there and there you see that in the weather center. One of them is down by dover. Just kind of dancing around and not really wanting to move and the other one up in the northern and western suburbs up from allentown, down to reading. Most of this activity is light but its just kind of sitting in place, so if you get stuck with some of that light to moderate precipitation it might be with you for awhile. Most of us dry this morning and under the clouds too. We expect of expect clouds to give way to some sunny breaks. How about all these numbers in the 60s. 68 degrees in philadelphia. 68 in wilmington. And allentown 65. Trenton 65. Same thing in reading and down in cape may 70 degrees. Warm this afternoon but not too bad. By noon, a mix of clouds with some sun, 75. By 3 oclock, 80. Thats your high. And then 79 degrees by 5 oclock and by 7 oclock, 76 and with humidity behaving itself across most of the region its a great day to take fido out to the park and the kids, too, and maybe have a little run around. Dewpoints this morning arent all that bad. I want to point this out to you because in the recent past weve had so many days when weve been talking about numbers up in the 70s. Not today. Dewpoint of 62 in philadelphia, just barely above that 60degree threshold for what we consider humid. Mid 60s arent bad either. Down in dover a little higher number but in general today is going to be comfortable. Matt, that changes tomorrow and tomorrow night there could be some flooding downpours. Well have details coming up from accuweather. Again. Allallall right, good morning d, good morning, everybody. Today is looking not a whole lot like yesterday in some ways in that were not dealing with as much storm damage this morning but it is looking like yesterday on the schuylkill expressway eastbound. Left lane paved. Right lane still milled and not paved here by conshohocken. So youve got sort of different ride even a difference in the grade of the roadway and eastbound by conshohocken. But overnight crews cleared out so both lanes are opened as you head in toward the curve. All crews gone on the vine street expressway. All lanes have reopened in both directions. Theyll be back though tonight at 11 oclock to shut it down once again. On the big picture we were watching a gas main break on the main line along lancaster avenue route 30 by anderson avenue where you turn to go into suburban square. Were hearing thats been patched and lancaster avenue is now reopened but to take its place now were getting reports of a water main break along route one right where it turns from city avenue into township line road at rolling road by the ross. Reports of that are just coming in. Theyre still working on the water main break from yesterday in fishtown so frankford avenue remains blocked there. Also still have some flood damage in delaware from yesterday. Pyles ford road is still closed. Way road the way to go instead t tam. Okay, thank you, matt. An argument between a father and son took a terrible turn in montgomery county. The son came after the father with a sword and the father stopped that attack by putting two bullets in his own son.

The guy was sitting out here and then when the dad was going into the ambulance, we heard him say, im just trying to see if my sons all right. I shot him twice. I hear gunshots and violence. My kids out here running around. Im concerned. Reporter the mayor of pottstown came out to the scene after seeing helicopters and police blocking the street. Officers were called shortly after 5 oclock last night. Residents say police pulled multiple rifles from the home and removed two dogs adding the father kept asking how his son was doing.

Nine people have already pleaded guilty to federal crimes since the investigation began in 2013. Pawlowskis attorney jack mcmann says he doesnt know the details of the indictment. Pawlowski him sent sent action news a text saying i will not step down or drop out of the campaign. The democrat is running for a fourth term in november. Senate republicans are having a rollercoaster session in washington. Just hours after claiming victory over a successful procedural vote to start debate on healthcare reform, gop leaders hit a stumbling block.

The senate is expected to take up a separate bill today that would largely repeal the aca with a two year Expiration Date to give lawmakers time to craft a replacement. A cold case murder in bucks county is now in the hands of a judge. Closing arguments wrapped up in the bench trial of george shaw yesterday.

A hearing is scheduled next month to decide whether sunoco violated a 2015 Settlement Agreement with west goshen township Chester County. They have to sees horizontal drilling. They cant resume until they give assurances to the environmental hearing board now and the Public Utility Commission that theyre going to get it right. Sunoco denies any wrongdoing. Time now to turn to dave murphy talk about your accuweather. What a Beautiful Day ahead. Yeah, a little cloudy out there right now. Storm tracker6 live double scan shows i was couple of corners of the neighborhood with some showers, one of those would be up in the northern and western suburbs and if youre from allentown, down toward reading and maybe areas just to the west of honey brook Chester County, there are a couple of those showers around and they really arent moving very fast, either, so you get caught under some of this mainly light nuisance rain and it kind of sticks with you for awhile. The overall picture across the region is for light stuff. Then theres a second cluster of shower activity down near dover. This appears to be kind of sliding down to the south and maybe a bit to the southwest toward canterbury and Dover Air Force base. About a half hour ago about half that base was covered. You can see that its still about halfway covered so again, these showers very sparse but not moving very quickly this morning. Taking a look outside, we have the action cam in the Delaware County seat of media, pennsylvania, where tonight like they do every wednesday night through the summer, theyve got dining under the stars and tonight is going to be a gorgeous night for that. 68 degrees is your current temperature, dewpoint 62, nice and low. Just barely what we consider humid. So very comfortable as you step outside in most neighborhoods. Winds out of the northeast at 5 miles per hour. Ocean temperature running at 75. Future tracker6 shows you those morning sprinkles and showers may still carry into the afternoon in a couple of spots. Generally speaking were looking at clouds to start out and then some sunny breaks during the afternoon. This model stubbornly all the way to 6 30 still has a couple of light sprinkles and showers. If youre headed out to media to dine under the stars check your action news forecast here on 6abc in the evening with adam and cecily or bring along that accuweather app on your smartphone just in case but generally speaking it doesnt look like theres going to be a lot of rain around tonight and if theres something its pretty light. 67 degrees by 8 oclock, 73 by 10 oclock. Still very comfortable in through here. And even as late as noon were still only in the mid 70s. Then by 3 oclock a high around 80 and by 6 oclock, 79 degrees. Clouds mixing with some sunny breaks today. And maybe a little sprinkle or shower in a couple of corners of the neighborhood t highs overall today in the 70s in most spots. 79 in wilmington. 78 in allentown. Similar number in reading. 76 in trenton. 76 in millville and it looks like mid 70s down the shore where there is a low risk of rip currents. Phillies going to try to take at least one from houston tonight. Aaron nola is on the mound. 71 in the ninth inning. Keep your eyes on action news before you head down to the ballpark in case theres a couple spotty showers but i think youre generally okay. Warm front comes through thats going get us more humid and by thursday night look out, there is an area of low pressure thats going to come in bringing us some thunderstorms that could produce yes, more drenching downpours and theres a chance once again of scattered strong storms that could have damaging winds. Hearing thunder tomorrow night into friday morning is another one of those time periods where youve got to head indoors, lower floors. 80 degrees is the high today. Clouds mixing with some sun, a spotty shower but mostly dry. More humid tomorrow with that late night storm, 86 degrees and some of those storms carry overnight into friday morning so weve got the accuweather alert for friday. 83 is the high. Hoping for some drying later in the day. For the weekend, clouds giving way to sun on saturday. Might start out humid but nicer in the afternoon, a high of 79. And then on sunday, lots of sunshine and a high picking up to 84 degrees with lower humidity. Monday and tuesday in the 80s, also looking good. Still no 90s. Yeah, its like midsummer, you know. Yes. Usually you get that around here. We wasted all of our 90s for the last two months. We ran out. Thank you david. 5 41 now. Gym attack. Police arrest a man who they say punched a woman nearly 40 times outside the exercise center and investigators say the motive was revenge. It may be a huge catch but this catch will the no be making it into any record books. Well tell you why. Matt. And not catching any delays here just yet on 95 in delco. Northbound headlights zipping along towards the blue route and the airport. Overnight construction here is gone. Well check our work zone in Chester County along 202 and talk about a water main break on route one when action news continues on this wednesday morning. Welcome back. Taking a live look here. Heres the view on sky6 Philadelphia International airport starting off your wednesday morning and its going to be a great day out there today. It is 68 degrees right now, getting up to a nice temperate 80. Matt pelman how are you doing this morning . You know, im great. Yes. No, not going to get into me. Weve got to talk about the traffic this morning but i am feeling good because the traffic for the most part is looking good as one goes so goes the other, matt and tam. Were live here in Chester County in exton along 202 the ongoing work zone by the 30 bypass. During the overnights this week theyre closing the ramp from 30 eastbound to get onto northbound 202. But those crews have cleared so the ramps opened and ready for you now. Theyll close it again later on tonight. Early morning crash on 202 northbound around 401 but that has cleared. Bottom line is youre good to go along 202 in Chester County. In birmingham township weve got construction coming today to birmingham road. Theyre going to shut it down one day special from 9 00 until 3 00 as they do some emergency pipe replacement. So i would just stay down on brittons bridge road to get around the birmingham road closure from 9 00 until 3 00 today. I think we might need some pipe replacement along city avenue route one where it turns into township line road near overbrook at rolling road. There was a water main break there so one lane is blocked. It is passable but i would expect delays there as you travel by the ross dress for less. Better news though on the main line where 30 lancaster avenue has reopened. That gas main break from the overnight has been patched. Meanwhile sounds like this isnt going to be opened for awhile. Yesterday they closed the valley green road bridge because of some emergency structural deficiencies there. Mill road is the way to go instead. Closed yesterday. We dont know when its going to reopen. Lets quickly check our turnpike construction zones, the ones eastbound approaching valley forge cleared but the one eastbound approaching bensalem is still out there taking out one lane. Matt. Got it matt. Police arrested a man they say beat a gym employee in new hampshire. Surveillance video shows 18yearold Erin Mccarthy walking to her car outside a rochester planet fitness. That is when the man sneaks up behind and attacks. Police say 22yearold jordan lamond punched mccarthy 39 times and threw her to the ground. Investigators say lamond waited outside the gym for most of the victims eight hour shift. He kind of came up and hit me in the back of the head and wouldnt stop and he was so silent. He didnt say a word. Mccarthy believes the attack was revenge for a dispute lamond had with her exboyfriend. She was not seriously injured.

A viral video has people aghast showing fisher men dragging a shark behind their speedboat and now investigators are getting involved. Blank its National Bagel fest day. When you cant just have a bagel you have to have like a festival in your mouth. Of course. A festival is worthy. As we head outside this morning no festivals here but were looking pretty good along the schuylkill expressway. That wont be the case later on today. Were expecting eastbound construction from 9 00 until 3 00 between the vine street expressway and university avenue. Yesterday was westbound. Today its eastbound but right now youre good to go in both directions here at south street. On the mass transit front just a couple delays so far this morning on the regional rails, a Paoli Thorndale line train is about 10 minutes behind. Detours on septa bus routes five and 25 through fishtown because of that big water main break from yesterday. David. Fair amount of clouds around this morning, matt arent and the big board shows i was couple of showers some of these in the northern and western suburbs light and sues nance stuff kind of nuisance stuff holding their position. In dover staying in place down there with those showers. Looks like a cool comfortable morning across moisture of the region. 77 degrees by 7 oclock. Well go for a high of 80 degrees at 3 oclock. Close to that at 5 oclock. Slight chance of a popup sprinkle or shower. At the airport hoping for all green aircraft. Thats what we have.
