We had a bit what is called training taking place, across south jersey and delaware, earlier this morning. That is when heavy cells run over the same locations over and over again. So this is a bit of good news. We have shifted everything off to the northwest a little bit giving south jersey and delaware a little bit of the break, throughout the midday hours. But is there more heavy rain to come, as we take a wider view here. You can clearly see more heavy rain down toward baltimore, d. C. And that is yet to pull through.

Right now only minor flooding is being reported in these areas but fit continues to rain like it is, we may have to watch smaller creeks, streams very carefully over next couple of hours. Smaller tributaries are reaching their banks and flowing in the bigger creeks, streams, rivers here and that is when you start to get flooding problems. As long as it continues to rain like this we will to have watch things carefully. One and a half miles visibility has been severely impacted as i mentioned earlier. 2 miles in lancaster. Philadelphia is as good as it has been all day, 2 miles. 1. 7 in trenton. Then clearing or somewhat down here to the south, dover 10 miles, millville the, not too bad but then on the water 1. 7 in wildwood and. 8 of a mile in Atlantic City. We have a warm front lifting to the north still somewhat chilly up here across Lehigh Valley and poconos but very mild springlike stuff to the south where it is 68 degrees, right now in dover but yet 43 on the other side of the front in allentown. Tremendous contrast in temperatures. If you live up in through here and want mild air it doesnt look like warm front will lift that far north today. This is as far north as it travels, 55 in philadelphia right now, millville 60, Atlantic City 57 degrees. Future tracker showing pockets of heavier rain continuing throughout the afternoon hour, winding down late, 2 30, 60 in philadelphia. Cloudy skies, light showers, spritz, sprinkle, drizzle going on. By six or 7 00 oclock this evening all that heavy rain pull is a way, left over with cloudy conditions, damp roads and miss continuing taking place. After midnight tonight, the winds shift out of the northwest. Is there you are cool front right there everything dries out. We will see cooler numbers race in. So tomorrow morning we are nothing looking at 50s and 60 s. We are looking at 30s north and west and lower 40s south iron east. For the remainder of the afternoon on and off pockets of heavier rain tapering off late, visibility reduced at times and poor drainage flooding is likely. Forecast for this afternoon High Temperature wise 63 in philadelphia we have exceeded 66 in dover. Presently at 68. We will to have adjust that one. Wilmington 62. Trenton 60. Millville 63. Probably upper 40s to lower 50s north and west. Atlantic city 58, and cape may.

But even by 6 00 it is still cloudy, damp with drizzle, mist and occasional shower but it is extremely mild 62 degrees in philadelphia 40 s north and west.
