like it interrupted the skiing at all and as the day goes on, more and more sunshine will appear. it's still significant cloud cover in the mountains and you can see some breaks of sunshine peeking through and we'll see more and more of that during the afternoon and it will be a mild one in the mountains and show the clouds over scranton and a few breaks in the clouds ahead of that line of

and it's ended in cape may and it won't be much longer in atlantic city and then we're watching a system that's way to the west. that's snow in south dakota and that's our next rainmaker and that's going to be different than the system that moved through today because that one is going to bring with it colder air that will set the stage for the possibility of snow at the end of the week. today, showers are already coming to an end in philadelphia and the light showers will end at the shore and gusty winds will stay with us through this afternoon. a nice, mild end to february and another nice, mild start tomorrow and march begins tomorrow. 58 degrees and that's after that colder morning. sunshine, bright and a nice, warm breeze on tuesday, but then here comes that rain on wednesday

morning and 42 degrees in the afternoon and that's below normal for this time of year and here comes a possibility that we'll see wintry weather on friday and it doesn't look very impressive and most of that storm will miss us, but it might come close enough that we'll get some light rain and we'll be watching friday closely. a break from the wet weather on saturday and a bit warmer for the next
