Now theres a fire truck and an ambulance on the scene so two lanes bloc blocked, only one lane gets by coming out of center city on the westbound side of 76, the schuylkill expressway, which as you can imagine does not do good things to the traffic. Were jammed as you come west of University Avenue so coming out of the city this afternoon, i would use the river drives, even lancaster avenue, the westbound side of 76 right there is not where you want to be. Had a crash earlier on 95 in south philadelphia. Northbound side approaching the walt whitman bridge. Thats now all off to the side but speeds are still around 11 Miles Per Hour as you come north of the airport. The platt bridge is busy but would be better or think about using the passyunk avenue drawbridge as another alternate to the girard point. Haddon heights crash on 295 southbound approaching 168 off to the side. Still slow coming down from 73.

Spreading flu virus has a lot of folks taking extra precautions to protect themselves and that includes many churches. Ali gorman joins us at the big board with more. Hi, ali. Hi, guys. Anywhere you go that has a lot of people coming through, the less you can touch the better. And that includes where you worship. Hand shakes have turned into fist bumps or flashing the peace sign inside many churches. Theres less touching in an effort to reduce the spread of germs. Some catholic churches are also not offering wine and sibow making hand started amore available. Few years ago but due to the high flu activity recently many are bumping up their prevention practices. One pastor at Union Lutheran church outside harrisburg says without universal precautions a house of worship can become a house of germs. The one person in has to shake everyones hand that has to give hugs when they need it has to pick up kids when they need it thats the pastor so right now our lead pastor is on round two of fighting off this flu. Yikes. These are precautions that you should try to take almost everywhere you go because take a look at this. The flu virus can actually survive, it can live on the surface for up to 24 hours and then when people get the flu theyre contagious a day before those symptoms start and then up to a week after theyre sick. So, again, you want to make sure that youre washing your hands throughout the day or use a hand sanitizer. Wipe down common surfaces. Were here at the news room wiping down all of our desks and computers and also you want to get a flu shot. The vaccine is not as effects tiff this year but it can help to prevent severe symptoms and it could help if another strand of the virus starts going around later in the season. Rick and monica.

It could cause some problems and with it comes the cold air. Were heading towards february. This is bound to happen. Absolutely. Lets head to the action news Weather Center. Sky6 taking a look over the Commodore Barry bridge. The clouds are in place. Clouds have been with us all day long. Temperatures in the 40s and there is a little bit of rain developing along the coast thanks to a coastal low. Double scan live showing that this is really, really light stuff. I dont think its really reaching the ground in wilmington but near cape may, Sea Isle City near dover, likely some light showers and you can see theyre beginning to push up to the north and east. Thats one of two features moving through between tonight and tomorrow that will bring a little bit of that snow and really open the door for some cold air. Right now, though, bad. After two days of temperatures in the 50s over the weekend were in the 43 degrees in philadelphia. Normal high for this time of the year is 41. So seasonable. Allentown 43. Trenton 41. Atlantic city airport in pomona 40 and wilmington 43. Satellite and radar showing the clouds are in place. We have two systems im tracking. One is low pressure. Its off the coast. This is what is bringing some light rain along the shore right now and theres another piece of energy whats known as an inverted trough thats moving in from the midwest. This is what will bring us more widespread intermittent light snow through the day tomorrow. So future tracker showing looks like the morning commute should be okay for most of the viewing area. Lots of clouds and we will see some showers, some snow showers developing in our far western suburbs around 8 oclock in the morning. This continues to push to the east by about lunchtime around philadelphia. Notice were not looking at a loot of heavy snow, just intermittent bands of generally light snow pushing through the coast and beginning to move off by about 4 30. So its a quick hit. The ground is pretty warm with temperatures in the 50s over the weekend so its going have trouble sticking. So snowfall totals lakehurst Burlington Ocean county from the coastal low thats currently bringing rain it will switch over to snow overnight could get a quick one to 2 inches. Most of our viewing area from that trough tomorrow, that intermittent light snow were looking at a coating to 1 inch but our far north and west communities, northern chester county, the Higher Elevation of upper bucks Montgomery County all areas northwest including Lehigh Valley and the poconos one to 2 inches. This is also where temperatures will be cooler and the roads could get covered. If you are heading to minneapolis take the layers. Take lots of them. The next two days temperatures not bad in the 20s but then as we head into the middle of the week we really drop. Generally afternoon highs only in the Single Digits and teens. Super bowl sunday seven, overnight lows dropping below zero. Tomorrow light snow, the high drops to 37. On wednesday, sunshine mixing with clouds, 35. Thursday rain developing at night, 48 degrees. That rain changing over to snow. By friday morning, could be a complicated friday morning commute, 33.
