If youre coming from conshohocken or gladwyne youre looking pretty good so far. We want to warn you about this in fairmount park. Theyre doing that resurfacing project until 6 30 this morning youre going to see restrictions on kelly drive between Huntington Park and fairmount avenue.

Reporter a player snider but tough brutal teams that fans loved.

Rain may intensify a little bit until it finally gets out of here plus it doesnt look like this is going to be off the coast until around 1 oclock this afternoon somewhere in that vicinity. 60 degrees in philadelphia with that southerly wind continuing just like yesterday.

Through the day. 61 degrees right now if philadelphia, so not all that cool. Im wearing a suit jacket out here on the terrace and feeling pretty good. Some spots in the upper 50s. As we roll through the day a cloudy rainy start, 9 oclock until 11 oclock pretty damp across most of the region. By 1 oclock were drying out across the central portion of the area.
