Reporter well, matt, yeah, we have seen a lot of lightning of the lightning has been going on for several hours now but the rain started around 4 15. Were on 422 west right now and let me show you what were looking at. You can see right now its not raining quite as heavily as it was earlier because there was a downpour when the sky just opened up around 4 15 this morning. Wet roads right now so you do want to use caution. And again its not raining quite as hard at the moment but do you want to expect downpours. The sky keeps lighting up with all the lightning and while youre out on the roads this morning youre going the want to keep an eye out for flash flooding. That could be a concern. We havent seen flooding on the roads yet where we are but of course it is early this storm is sticking around so you want to watch out leave a little extra time when you head out the door this morning because youll see varying conditions depending on where you are.

Two people have been killed in the flash flooding, six are missing. 4inches of rain fell in just one hour yesterday karen rogers joins us. How severe are these storms right now . Were seeing a lot of lightning. What makes them severe is that were seeing wind gusts over potentially over 60 miles an hour so thats enough to cause damage to areas that have already seen damage with such severe storms weve had lately this summer. Storm tracker6 live double scan around the region and we can see the hardest areas that are hit right now indicated by the red and the yellow. I want to go in closer with storm tracker6 live double scan with our technology we can tell you exactly where these storms are hitting and where theyre going so in newtown by 5 00, wood hill by 5 04, yardley at this point looks like 5 11. Looking at some of the storms further to the south theyve lost a little bit of their punch but feasterville at 4 55 langhorne at 5 07. Be careful as youre headed out. This is what you can expect. I want to take that off right now just to give you a sense of where these storms are that are creating so much damage. Were looking at 70 lightning strikes just within the area. 15 minutes ago we were talking about 140 lightning strikes. , see thats comedown a little as these storms are moving to the northeast. In the city itself youre getting some of these storms but the heaviest is up near willow grove just passing lansdale headed near doylestown. Well take one more wider look. This isnt the only storm through the day. Thats the problem. Were looking at these storms continuing at any point with these downpours but i think what were looking at right now is the most active period. A new storm beginning near woodstown in Gloucester County new jersey, one of the areas hardest hit from the last weeks storms and also heading towards swedesboro on 295 and the new jersey turnpike. Lets go outside and show you what it looks like right now as sky6 looks live and those storms are hitting the Philadelphia Airport right now. We continue to have Flash Flood Warnings. Lets check that out for you right now with those flood warnings continuing until 8 30 this morning and thats a real problem between berks county bucks chester delaware lehigh and montgomery. They already had an inch and a half of rain. Our thunderstorm warning has just expired. You look at the temperatures right now as we continue you can perhaps see all this, if you go ahead and look at what ive been showing you the temperatures right now are 75 degrees currently through the area, 73 in allentown not sure why were still on sky6. 74 in Sea Isle City and right now were looking at future tracker six showing at lunchtime at 12 30 were still getting some of these storms. So, its not as if youve got one line of storms coming through and thats it. The trouble is weve got these downpours at any point today and were expecting that to continue even until 7 oclock at night. We can see in this model they really weaken. I think throughout the afternoon and evening the heaviest will be especially philadelphia and east but as weve seen weve already been hit by areas to the north and west as well. Eventually it all clears out. The front comes through and we see a huge change in your weather. So, as for today were looking at 85 degrees with downpours possible at any point. When this front comes through this afternoon thats when youll see a real change in the weather and feel the difference tomorrow. Your exclusive accuweather forecast humid with downpours and 85. Breezy and refreshing tomorrow, what a change and dry, 82. Friday mostly sunny continuing in the nice weather and 84 degrees. Saturday warm and more humid and 88. Sunday its hot and humid and 90 degrees with a chance for a thunderstorm. Monday hot and humid 90. It looks like we could see our next heat wave on tuesday if we still hit 90 it will be sticky with a chance for a strong storm then. So some severe thunderstorms moving through and lots of water on the roadways. Remember, never drive through it if its flooded. Thanks karen.
