So nice outside. Going to stay that way all day today. We do have front, i showed it to you earlier in the show, moving its way in later tonight, i think the timing pretty good. If we have to deal with wet weather at all it comes through sparsly, scattered, doesnt get here until at earliest overnight tonight, then generally Early Morning hours of tomorrow. Then it is out of here. In for another Sunny Afternoon tomorrow afternoon. So, allinall, this is a pretty lackluster frontal passage when it comes right down it it, but we will see wet weather from it, also see drop on the thermometer. Lets talk a little bit of statistical information, however, just to get things started here. As we take a look what we are specking today, the actual record to beat is 84. And i think we will come awfully close to. That will look when this thing was set. It is daily record, all the way back in 1887. That on this day, we hit 84 degrees, in philadelphia.

We get right through the evening, do some grilling out, spends some time out with the family, go for it, beautiful rest of the day. Late tonight, here you go, this takes it all the way to future weather before 6 00 a. M. , we start to see any activity on the radar, that is kind of it. So it is really not impressive. Once that zips out of here late in the morning, were really going just be left with some clouds, perhaps shower here and there, but this is your colds front guys.
