If it continues on this track, at this speed, it will be there overnight tonight. Of course South Carolina watching it closely too. The rain spans all the way up through South Carolina on the north side. If we take an even wider look out, you can see the rain really extending up into our area, not locally. We have nice weather today, but we do have some showers, some moisture from it trying to move into western pennsylvania right now. At the same time, were also going to have a cold front approaching as we go into tomorrow. Thats going to help to pull up some of the moisture. Its also going to help to keep the hurricane away from us, so thats good news. Weve been talking about that for the past week or so. A look at Hurricane Matthew, max winds 110 Miles Per Hour. As of the last advisory, its downgraded to a category 2 hurricane, a strong category 2 hurricane. Its moving to the north at 12 Miles Per Hour. It should be up near the georgia South Carolina coastline overnight tonight. That would be 2 00 a. M. Saturday, possibly still as a category 2 hurricane. Then it could be skimming the South Carolina coast into saturday afternoon, downgrading potentially to a category 1. And then thats when we start to see it make the very sharp turn, starts to wind around and maybe even heads back towards the bahamas. But at that point it would be early next week and it would be weakening. Well be watching that closely. The wind radius around the hurricane, red showing hurricaneforce winds, the yellow tropical stormforce winds. Were looking at hurricaneforce winds along the georgia coastline, South Carolina coastline, maybe even towards wilmington by saturday night.

The center of the storm will keep getting closer to parts of South Carolina. Category 2 hurricane, max winds 110 miles an hour, moving to the north at 12 miles an hour. That could put it somewhere around savannah or maybe the georgia South Carolina border there by early tomorrow morning. Were talking overnight theyre going to get the worst on the coastline, maybe weakening to a category 1 by saturday afternoon. Then it takes that big curve out to sea, starts to turn back down to the south, possibly weakening, heading back in the direction of the bahamas. Well be watching that closely. Computer models are all going out to sea after it nears the South Carolina coast and is swinging back around to the bahamas. At that point we would obviously watch it very closely. So far it looks like its still going to take that turn, even though its heading to the north right now. A lot of georgia and South Carolina conditions rapidly deteriorating. Well be watching that closely. As we go into the weekend, some of the moisture from Hurricane Matthew will be adding to our rain chances. It will stay down to the south for most of us.

The governor of South Carolina, nikki haley, has already declared a state of emergency. People there have been preparing. We know its going to be a long couple of days.

And its something that the National Hurricane center has been studying and has some new complex computers that make it now easy for us to understand. Im Kerry Sanders. Ill have the details coming up on nightly news. Now back to you. The threat from Hurricane Matthew will not reach us here. But it really wasnt that long ago that another storm did its damage. Its hard to forget. The jersey shore learned a lot from Hurricane Sandy. Many changes have been made to make sure people are ready for the next big threat. Nbc 10 jersey shore Bureau ReporterTed Greenberg explains. Its just constant waiting to be done.

Lets get the latest on Hurricane Matthew and our weekend forecast from meteorologist sheena parveen. Matthew causing a lot of heavy rain, high seas now off the coast of south georgia and South Carolina. This is what well be paying attention to as we go through tonight. If it were to make landfall or at least get close enough to land as a category 2 hurricane, it would be late tomorrow or early tomorrow morning. Here it is spinning, off the jacksonville coast. Its about 120 miles south of savanna, georgia, moving to the north. Were going to watch it move to the north and then take that turn that weve been anticipating out to sea as it nears of georgia South Carolina border. The rain is extending through South Carolina, the heaviest on the coast. And on the north and northeast side of the eyewall. It also extends into parts of western pennsylvania. Well watch that moisture as well. A cold front will approach tomorrow and try to pull some of that moisture up with it. Hurricane matthew, winds sustained at 110 miles an hour, moving to the north at 12 miles an hour. If it continues on this track, it could be near the georgia South Carolina border by 2 00 a. M. Tomorrow morning, possibly as a category 2. Then we would anticipate it taking more of that turn, maybe sliding along the South Carolina coast through tomorrow afternoon, sending a lot of rain to the north, finally moving out to sea. It could be making this crazy loop around, weakening, heading back to the bahamas. Thats something well watch very closely. Locally, weve seen nice conditions all afternoon long. Were in the clear right now, nice and dry. Nice day to visit the philadelphia zoo, the weather perfect for the animals and those visiting today. Im sure it was a great day for anybody who was able to get out, a beautiful fall day. It will stay nice through tonight. If you have friday night plans, 75 degrees in philadelphia. By 7 00 p. M. , around 70 degrees. By 10 00 p. M. , temperatures around 63 degrees if youre heading out. Future weather, looking back down to the hurricane, tonight the heavy rain sliding up through the carolinas and into tomorrow morning. Theres our cold front weve been talking about. Thats going to start to bring us some rain. It will also pull up some of the rain from Hurricane Matthew. Its also going to act as a blocking mechanism thats going to keep matthew to the south and push it out to sea. Now we go through saturday afternoon. Showers in the forecast to start off your weekend. Expect the rain around. Even tomorrow night, rain around the area, especially new jersey and delaware by 9 30 tomorrow evening. We see it start moving away by sunday. By the coast it will linger but by the afternoon hours a lot of that moves offshore. The second half of your sunday actually looks really good. I think the weekend will be shaping up nicely after we get through saturday. For saturday, 71 for the high in philadelphia. South jersey, 70 degrees. 69 through the Lehigh Valley, cloudy with scattered showers through the day. By sunday, cooler and clearing. Temperatures in the mid60s.
