But first Jessica Boyington has your first alert traffic. Thanks w, bill. And to start on the schuylkill expressway. The eastbound lanes are all open moving past the scene. Since this is eastbound, this is approaching the blue route right now. You can see moving a little slow if you can see in comparison to the westbound side.

Your hourbyhour forecast is calling for clouds today. By 9 00 77. And the chance of showers at noontime, too, just a chance at each hour not an allday rainfall. Lets see if anything is affecting the roads today. Jessica boyington is the first alert traffic center. Were starting things off on the vine street expressway. Twominute drive times and no ongoing construction. All lanes open. Definitely a good thing. These are our cameras starting at broad street.

No problems on the schuylkill headed eastbound, the blue route doing fine as well. Well check in with mass transit coming up in the next ten minutes. The u.
