Health. Happy new year. Of aofi have a few things to highlight. Very exciting news with regard to medy cal expanding coverage to undocumented immigrants up to age 26. This is an expansion that Governor Newsom authorized as part of the states 2019 to 20 budget, including full scope medical to eligible adults ages 19 to 25 regardless of immigration status. Statewide this is expected to have a wide impact, covering 90,000 people, and enrollment started the first of the year.

Ill break it down hour by hour and show you what to expect during the day today and look be at the sevenday forecast coming up. In gloucester county, crews just cleared an accident that shut down part of the black horse pike in washington township. The tractortrailer hit someone. Were still working to learn the victims condition. Heres first alert traffic reporter Jessica Boyington with the rest of the traffic for today. Jessica . Right. Ill touch on that accident that we talked about. With that registering as closed, theyre probably getting everything out of the way. Northbound moving through washington township. If you have to avoid the Atlantic City expressway, you might have a slowdown there getting by the scene. For the most par
Skies. As you grab that car door handle or maybe as you head to the bus stop. As we roll through the afternoon it is going to be a warm one. Were going for that high of 89 degrees at 3 oclock. And as we go in through the afternoon look for a gusty thunderstorm but more importantly those drenching downpours. Not everybody sees them but if you do you want to slow it down because they could produce quick rising water on poor drainage area roadways. Matt pelman the end of this humid pattern is ahead in the accuweather 7day. Details coming up. David i would not like to be doing Road Construction in this heat and humidity but the crews were out and about lots of them overnight. One of the crews was blocking the ramp from the northbound side of 95 to the westbound side of the vine street expressway. As you can see, that ramp is reopened now and ready for you. Same with the vine itself over by the schuylkill. All the crews have cleared out in both directions. They will return tonight at 11 ocl
Are just starting to wake up, the the roads but no, not this time around. Yeah, usually feet up on the desk, and let the the girls do all of the work. Today we have our commute cut out for us.

Miles an hour. Dont look for any sunshine today at all. Thunder and lightening is possible, the rain could linger throughout the afternoon, temperatures in the 70s all day and as we mentioned those wind gusting as high as 45 miles an hour, so, little weather drama possible this morning, bob kelly, but i saw leaves, and branches blowing all over the place on my way to work. Are you sure wind is reason why bus stop buddy cannot stand up straight there, or maybe a little. He is eight years old. Live look at 42 freeway we have rain drops, that will be the game changer for morning rush hour, factor in some extra time. I like to say first one out of the house gets the best umbrella.

Already out of the gate two of the septas Regional Rail lines running with delays this morning. Karen and thomas back to you. We are weight waking up in a good mood because our eagles won last
