Go,. Good morning. Theres a little bit of a breeze this morning which you need because it feels oppressively humid out here but were in the process of seeing dewpoints drop and things turning around for us. Lets take a look at storm tracker6 live double scan. The only showers we have currently are along the coastline through cape may and Atlantic City and Sea Isle City and thats because of the front that still hasnt quite cleared the area. As you look at satellite6 and action radar you can kind of see that the showers moved through our northwest suburbs. Theyve moved through philadelphia. Theyre now along the coastline and we do have lots of cloud cover through the region but everything really changes for us this afternoon. Its 75 degrees right now in philadelphia. 66 in allentown, much mover comfortable there. 67 in reading, 69 in wilmington, 73 in millville and 74 degrees in trenton. Look at the dewpoints. Weve dropped just a little bit already in philadelphia but still very humid at 69 degrees. It feels better in the northwest. The real humidity at this point is east of the city of philadelphia. Thats where its really worse where you have dewpoints into the 70s making it feel oppressive. So today is a day of change. Starting it off with clouds, lots of humidity, some showers along the coastline. The afternoon is turning less humid bright with sunshine and clouds and warm. So, by 9 00 a. M. , 79, by noon 85, by the lunchtime hour feels less humid in the city. By 3 00 p. M. , 86 degrees with sunshine and clouds feeling just right. By 6 00 p. M. , 83 degrees. Im going to show you what future tracker6 looks like and you can see when these clouds start to break and humidity Tropical Storm and well have that in just a minute. Matt. The future is looking kind of dim for people trying to get to the airport this morning, karen, for an on time departure weve got problems here on 95. Northbound side by ridley park its a multi vehicle accident taking out all lanes except the right shoulder. Traffic squeezing by on that right shoulder. As you can see there are the vehicles involved. Weve got fire crews and ambulance on the scene. Those three vehicles just one into the other and a lot of Police Officers are out here as well helping direct that traffic thats using that northbound right shoulder but northbound is at a standstill from just past the Commodore Barry bridge up to that accident scene at ridley park, just 8 Miles Per Hour. You really need to think alternates this morning like 291 industrial highway. If you want to travel up to the blue route you could hop on that northbound to macdade boulevard. Run that to 420 and then if you get back on 95 northbound from 420 youre going to be past the accident scene headed towards the airport but its definitely something were watching, well keep watching on this tuesday. This is neiffer in the great northeast, just a little building southbound traffic entering the work zone at cottman avenue. Traveling west on the vine street expressway some brake tapping from time to time approaching the schuylkill at the moment doesnt look too bad. In Wall Township watch out for a crash on the garden state parkway northbound past 195. They just got that pushed off to the shoulder but it was a pretty serious accident. And our overnight work zones are clearing out but theres still one in trenton in the northbound lanes of 29 past 129. Thats going through this afternoon. And dont forget the west trenton Regional Rail line is still shuttle busing today between woodbourne and west trenton for the ongoing signal work. Matt. Lets talk about the sinkhole, matt.

Lets get an update from action News Reporter Katherine Scott who is live on the scene at tulip and huntingdon streets. Katherine. Reporter matt, you can see theres a big sinkhole right at this intersection here. Crews have been on the scene throughout the night. They have been making progress, but these repairs, theres still quite a lot to do here at this intersection in kensington. Crews from philadelphia gas works and the Water Department have been here. Pgw is here because they have a gas line that runs underneath the road and they have been sweeping up the roadway trying to clear at least some of the way here. Hopefully opening part of this road perhaps later on but theyre not quite there yet. Theres still quite a lot to do. The Fire Department was called in around 3 oclock yesterday for the water main break here at tulip and huntingdon. Thats when they found the sinkhole which was expanding. Crews have been working all night to et cetera good it fixed. Theres no word on what caused the water main break. There was no disruption to gas and Water Service in the area. Obviously traffic is still being detoured around this intersection and a few nearby streets have been closed because of vehicles and all the equipment they need to make these repairs. They have been making progress. They seemed to have narrowed the area around this sinkhole. They have put blockades around it. It looks like in a little while they might be able to open at least some of the street but not right now. Theres still detours right now in the area. The best thing to do this morning is to avoid the area if youre trying get to work. We are live in kensington, Katherine Scott channel6 action news. Good advice. Thanks so much katherine.

The winds are westerly and the barometric pressure is holding staged now lets go outside and show you what it looks like right now. Sky6 looking at an improving shot already, starting to see some of those clouds break over the ben franklin bridge. The humidity is still out there at this point because we do have that dewpoint at 69 degrees making it feel pretty sticky out there. Satellite6 and action radar showing us we had this front that we have been tracking. Its already pushed through philadelphia. We see the cloud cover thats left through much of the region especially east of the city and those showers that are along the coastline as that front hasnt quite cleared the area just yet. So, its going to sweep all the humidity out of here, out of the clouds and by the afternoon, things are really turning around for us. Future tracker6 showing at 10 oclock in the morning still maybe a shower here or there along the coastline. Lots of cloud cover through south jersey and delaware. We advance this through the afternoon and evening hours and were dry and clear everywhere and feeling less humid as well. So, breaking it down for you, what to expect, in philadelphia your northern west suburbs, turns less humid by the noontime hour and youll see that bright sunshine and really a gorgeous afternoon. Now, at the shore we have some lingering morning showers and it turns less humid by the evening hours. Lets take a look at what you can expect hour by hour. At 8 00 a.

We really have this dry sunny spell after this morning. Tomorrow still beautiful, 84 degrees. We keep the humidity way down there, too. Unusual for this time of year. Friday mostly sunny skies and 85. Saturday very warm, the high shifts off the coast for the weekend so you feel little difference in the air quality. The temperature is up there, the humidity starting to get up there on saturday. You feel the humidity by sunday for sure and has the the chance for a thunderstorm. Thats the next chance weve got. So, were dry until then, 89 degrees. Monday its staying sticky, still the chance for a thunderstorm, temperatures very warm and 89 degrees. So, this time of year usually we keep the heat and humidity up there for much longer than this. So seven day is not looking too bad. Okay. Thanks karen. Sounds great. 6 11 now.

You can see ambulance, fire crews, police all remain on the scene and northbound just that right shoulder is squeezing by. Theres the nice Police Officer waving the people along northbound headed toward the airport but with no lanes opened, we are seeing a huge delay on the northbound side of 95 starting back around 320, providence avenue. I want to pull in the waze app again and show you just 6 Miles Per Hour is what were clocking there in the northbound lanes of 95 as you come north of the barry bridge. If you want to exit at 320, you can take that up to 22nd street, around 22nd street it turns into macdade boulevard. Keep going up to 420 and from 420 you can get back to 95 and youll be north of the accident scene. Thats one idea. Or stay on the south side along 291 industrial highway thats also fine to get you towards the airport this morning. Were watching that situation. Also watching a new vehicle fire. If youre traveling on the a. C. Expressway eastbound by winslow that exit ramp is shut down because of the vehicle fire. If thats your ramp use the ramp at williamstown which is exit 38 as an alternate. Had a crash early this morning up north on the garden state parkway northbound past 195. It was a serious accident but now its off to the side. On the garden state parkway southbound coming out of ocean county into Cape May County at the great egg tolls, still have some construction going until about 11 00 this morning. Theyre blocking the right lane. And dont forget in townsend starting in just about five minutes theyll close black bird forest road today for Railroad Crossing work. That lasts all day long.

Good morning. Good morning. Watching a beautiful sunrise out here. The clouds are starting to break. Lets take a look at storm tracker6 live double scan and we can see the only area that were dealing with showers currently is right along the coastline and for the most part theyre off the coast of cape may, Sea Isle City, Atlantic City and surf city but i think thats the area of main concern because that front that came through late last night hasnt quite moved through our entire area. Thats why it still feels sticky out here right now. Satellite6 and action radar you can see not a lot of shouse currently but were stuck with a fair amount of clouds throughout region but all of that is changing through the afternoon. By then the front will be out of here, it will turn less humid and feel pretty good. Currently it feels pretty humid. In south jersey and delaware we have dewpoints even above 70 degrees so feels oppressively humid there and again thats all going to lower this afternoon when that front clears. So, today is the day of change. 75 degrees right now in philadelphia. A little better in the Lehigh Valley, 67 in reading, 66 in allentown but youre in the mid to upper 70s along the coastline right now. Heres your day planner. By 8 00 a. M. , 78 degrees.

Well see if we like your changes. Well definitely like the changes i have to talk about. The accident on 95 northbound side by ridley park is now mostly off to the side. They are still partially blocking the right lane now because the cars are off on the right shoulder and theres still a little bit of sands here in these northbound lanes from the fluids that spilled out of the vehicles involved in the crash but three northbound lanes now getting by as you come away from the blue route and head up toward the airport but still were looking at big delays this morning, speeds like six, just 6 Miles Per Hour. Thats not a good thing as you come north of 322 through that accident scene at ridley park. If youre headed out in the next 20 minutes or so and youre trying get to the airport maybe, you still want to stick with maybe 291 industrial highway, stay up on 13 or even macdade boulevard up to 420 as possible alternates. If youre not headed out until 7 00 or so you might be okay on 95 northbound, still some slowing but i expect these delays to get a little less severe now that they have several lanes opened there on 95 northbound. This is 95 southbound in the great northeast. A little sluggish here by cottman. Heavier delays kick in from south of the betsy ross bridge into girard. Weve had really heavy delays this morning here on the schuylkill expressway eastbound but theyre starting to break up because our debris eastbound approaching the blue route is now gone. So, all lanes opened there and improving situation on the schuylkill but we still have a vehicle fire blocking the ramp from the a. C. Expressway eastbound to winslow. If thats your ramp, use the ramp at williamstown instead but the main lanes of the a. C. Expressway are moving okay on this tuesday morning. Matt. Thanks, matt. Breaking news. The official word for the coast guard is that the bermuda islander is still stuck. Chopper six is live over this 100meter cargo ship that travels between salem county, new jersey, and bermuda. At some point this morning when it reached the area around the salem river where it feeds into the Delaware River it hit some Shallow Water and couldnt move anymore. It looked like it might have been moving a little bit here or there but basically the coast guard says its not going to even go out there and try and push it out until high tide reaches this area of the Delaware River which would be at about 8 30 this morning. So, for now the bermuda islander is not moving anywhere. It is stuck in the Delaware River.

So, were already seeing a heavier than normal delay on the eastbound side of 70s earlier we had debris along the blue route. That cleared out.
