Taking a look outside, the Temple University camera, sky6 looking south along broad street and weve got it zoomed in on city hall. Notice how the camera isnt bouncing all that much. I think this one is locked down pretty well but of course yesterday we had those strong wind gusts and this morning the winds behaving themselves for most part. In the Single Digits in most neighborhoods. 51 degrees as you head outside with light winds, dress appropriately for that jacket and coat and youre in good shape. 47 degrees in allentown. In the Lehigh Valley its really not that much different tell mewise. 48 in reading, 48 in trenton, 48 wilmington, 47 millville and 49 in cape may. Satellite shows you how we have benefited in a way from some clouds overnight and that has sort of acted like a blanket over us. We getting a little bit of a break there. The farther south you go through southern delaware the clearer you are and in any event these clouds are going to break up to a degree and we should mix with clouds and sun as we go through the day. 52 is the high up in the Lehigh Valley. Less wind than yesterday. Thats g and down the shore 54 degrees, clouds and sun, less wind than we had there yesterday as well. Then in philadelphia well go fore a high of 57 degrees, still well above the average high which is down in the 40s. Clouds and sun not as windy with winds out of the north at six to 12 Miles Per Hour. Then heres how those numbers are going to climb today. 48 degrees by 8 oclock. If youre out around 11 oclock, youll already be in the low 50s and then 56 by 2 00 with that 57degree high probably around 3 00 or 3 30 this afternoon. As we take a look at tomorrow, future tracker6 through the morning rush hour is showing that were basically just cloudy with maybe some drizzle or a real light sprinkle. The morning rush hour is still looking like it is very likely dry for the most part. But then we get into the mid Morning Hours up until noon and 1 oclock and thats when rain starts to roll in through the region. Looks like its with us pretty much all day. Thats the evening rush hour. That also looks wet tomorrow, right . And then we get into about eight or 9 oclock and we should be seeing most of these showers pull away, just some lingering stuff here or there and how much rain are we looking at . Probably about a half inch to maybe an inch in some spots. Most of the model indications across the region would be less than an inch. Your exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, a couple of things i want to point out and have you just keep in mind during this forecast. Today is not really an issue, 57. The first thing to point out is tomorrow will be that rain day so keep that in mind.

Were still looking for that chilldown i not only want you to Pay Attention to the afternoon highs, 42 degrees on saturday, 46 on sunday but notice these overnight lows. If you have business early on saturday or sunday morning, youre looking at a pretty cold start and you definitely are going to want the winter coat maybe some extra gear as temperatures in the mornings will be down around the freezing mark. And thats, you know, average high temperatures for december. But of course they dont last because its winter 2015, right . 54 degrees monday and 62 on tuesday. Probably warmer than that on wednesday.

He says the suspect yelled at him prior to the attack. Police say both victims describe the same man. Neither were robbed. The motive is unclear and the attacks appear to be isolated to this part of center city. From what we have thus far it just appears that he just approaches the individuals, pulls out the knife and begins to cut the individuals. Reporter and police say that the victim that was attacked here at 23rd and walnut again was established in the side and also in his hand. We are told he was taken to Hahnemann Hospital yesterday but was released. Reporting live in center city, annie mccorm make channel6 actiomccormack channel6action.

Storm tracker double scan slows you were dry across the region. Thats good for the morning commute. As we take a look outside we have sky6 at the airport. Its bit of a breeze but not as windy as yesterday. You wont have to worry about that as you step outside and the temperatures to start out arent bad. Take a look. 51 degrees is what greets you as you step o outside in philadelphia. We have some cloud cover thats really settled overnight and thats held that number up a bit. Winds out of the northnortheast at 13 Miles Per Hour. Mostly time youre seeing single digit winds this morning. There are the clouds that swept down from the north. Theyre not going to be here all that long. We will start to break holes in the clouds during the morning and overall were looking at a clouds and sun mix and its going to be a little cooler than yesterday as matt mentioned. 48 by 8 oclock, 52 by 11 00, 56 by 2 00 and this is our forecast high, 57 degrees probably around 3 00, maybe 3 15 this afternoon. Yesterday we did get up into the 60s in the afternoon. So the 57 is a little cooler but with lighter winds, thats kind of nice tradeoff i think. 52 degrees is the high in allentown, 53 in reading, 55 in wilmington, 54 in trenton, 55 degrees is your high in millville and down the shore were expecting highs about 54 degrees this afternoon. Again less wind today. And then tomorrow weve got that front that weve been tracking for the last couple of days getting closer to us. This will ahead of it bump our number up a little bit to 60 degrees for a high. But theres also going to be some rain arriving and by the time all is said and done it could bitwhere from about a halh to an inch of rain during the day tomorrow. Now it looks as though on most of our recent model runs that well make it through the morning commute with nothing more than some light sprinkles can and maybe some drizzle around. This is the 9 oclock on the latest run on future tracker6. But as we get past about 10 or 11 oclock and then on up to noon, the latest runs still showing some of these lighter showers beginning to move in and then during the afternoon and in through the evening rush we are going see the heavier rain. Fairly steady at times. Obviously the rush hour tomorrow evening looks wet. By 9 oclock it is looking like most of the rain in and around the i95 corridor begins to taper off. There may be lingering showers down the shore up until perhaps 10 or 11 oclock tomorrow. Your exclusive accuweather 7day, 57 is todays high not as windy. Clouds will eventually give way to some its pretty pleasant overall. Cloudy tomorrow with rain arriving during the morning and copterring into the afternoon and a portion of the evening. 60 is your high and then behind that the next big change. A couple of things i want you to remember in this forecast. The first is tomorrows rain and then as we get into the weekend it is going to be chillier. 53 friday with a breeze but just 42 saturday and 46 sunday and the morning startup temperatures both mornings are going to be down around the freezing mark in philadelphia. And probably in the 20s in the suburbs. So, coats all around this weekend. And if youre headed to the eagles game at night bundle up it will be chilly. Then monday winter arrives and we go back to 54 and the first full day of winter on tuesday 62. [laughter] makes sense. Yeah, it does.
