think we will expect the low 60s in handful of spots. no too bad talking about the standards every mid to late november. so, i don't think you will be waltzing around in shorts and flip flops per say, but won't feel anywhere near as harsh, especially compared to the winds below end zero issues we had to deal, with feels a lot better outside. looking at storm scan, all clear right now. few patchy clouds here and there, moving on through, but we are in the midst right now of nice dome of high pressure helping to hook things up, bring in the warmth for our area, but the wind has certainly slack ends at this point. so you have a clear sky. don't have as hash as a wind watch more could you ask for? now, looking at the region wide zoom, i should say, the eastern two thirds, really of the united states, there is two pieces after puzzle here that try to come together, but they don't quite connect. and that's a good thing. you have frontal boundery eventually dropping in here later tonight. then you have this developing area of low pressure which starts to move northeast. should those two pieces coincide, which they probably will, when out to sea, you'll ends up with some drenching rain and pretty decent looking system. but they don't connect in time for our area. so, philly, primarily just isolated shower late tonight. talking well past the typical pm rush into the overnight hours. but through south jersey and delaware, you have got the best chance to see maybe one left over outer band from that area of low pressure bypassing us, to bring in maybe some steadier rain. so those are the areas most prone to see some steadier rainout of this, mainly again through the overnight, but you go north and west every philly , there is some parts that stay dry out of this. so really is location based forecast, outside boardwalk plaza, rehoboth one of the spots that could get hit with steadier rainfall, all dry, time to break out the best in graphics, little turkey running by, well, we are looking ahead here, to sunny skies, and chilly holiday. look at the little dancing turkey. isn't he just the cutest thing you've ever seen in your life? all right, beyond thursday, you got a

friday," we will be out there, who are you guys going to be? i'll be right there with you. looking outside, take a look, guys, yesterday around this time, it was very, very quiet. now, this exact same time, bumper to bumper almost stopped traffic on the boulevard. not just because of volume. although volume is a factor, really because the off ramp from schuylkill southbound jump onto or excuse me the boulevard jump on the schuylkill westbound, is closed. intermittently closed as the crews are trying to get this out of your way. because of that it is causing major slow downs for you. then, once you jump on the schuylkill westbound between montgomery and city avenue we still have crews out here, as well, tapping your brakes, going past all of these flags and cones, see the flashing lights, getting little bit of gaper delay here, but really on the boulevard southbound that you have to give yourselves extra time. i would say at this point give yourselves extra 20, 30 minute we do have an accident germantown avenue at walnut lane, lot more construction to talk about when we come back in the next ten minutes, rahel , back to you. >> meisha, thank you. now for look at newspaper headlines
