Yeah, colder today, probably another cold one tomorrow. Oddly enough the afternoon highs are actually Getting Better so a bit more of a spread as we head towards the end of february. Storm tracker6 live double scan shows you that we are dry. Taking a look outside, we have sky6 and center city all lit up red. We are looking at the clearing skies overhead, a lot of stars out and, yeah, its cool but overall its going to be a pretty nice day. 28 degrees in allentown, 29 reading. Currently were at 36 in trenton, philadelphia. Just 33 degrees in wilmington. Little bit chillier there. 36 in millville and Still Holding 39 in cape may.

Mainly clear and cold overnight then. We dip to 38 degrees which isnt quite as cold as it is this morning but very similar and in some suburbs youll be down closer to the freezing mark. Winds overnight not all that strong. Tomorrow well see the arrival of some high clouds as we go through the day and well get a mild high of 58 degrees ahead of an approaching frontal boundary but probably staying dry, just getting increasingly cloudy.

It looks like thursday well see some rain arrive. That will continue heavy at times thursday night into friday anywhere from one to 2 inches is possible although most models right now are probably favoring closer to one than the two. Its also going to get gusty if that coastal low forms off the coast. 30 to 40 miles an hour. Coastal flooding would not be out of the question. We have a lunar high tide so that would aid and abet that. Maybe some beach erosion if the storm is strong enough. As the storm moves away and cool air rushes in behind it we might see a changeover to wet snow specifically in the poconos and maybe the Lehigh Valley. Lots of sun today, nice with a high of 57. Tomorrow sun gives way to increasing high clouds, a high of 58. And then thursday, cloudier, rain arriving, a cooler high of 54 degrees and that rain kind of building in intensity as we get later into the nighttime period and then into friday morning. Friday morning it looks windy and wet with heavy rain at times, rain probably winding down in intensity a bit as the day goes on but a chillier high of 44 degrees.
