Yes, tomorrow is going to make today seem like a real nice day. We have heavy rain on the way. Today certainly not a bright day. Double scan live showing its gloomy out there with scattered showers. Most are on the light side but i have been tracking this one batch that that moved through reading a little bit more moderate heading towards fleetwood hamburg up to the north and this system is just getting started. Tomorrow its going to be basically a washout. Today certainly a lot cooler than yesterday. Yesterday made it up to 66 degrees. Right now philadelphia only 58 degrees. The dewpoint 43 degrees. A lot of moisture in the air. Winds out of the east at 14 miles an hour off the ocean. Pressure right now 30. 09 and the ocean temperature 52 so thats why most of our region temperatures are in the 50s with that that wind off the ocean. Philadelphia 58, cape may 53. Reading 57 and the mild spot is allentown currently 60. So, satellite and radar showing the clouds moved in late yesterday. Theyre here for awhile. Weve got the light showers moving through but the steady heavy rain is across the carolinas. That low pressure is moving into southern carolina and what this will do is continue to push up to the northeast and that will bring us that soaking rain tomorrow. So, future tracker showing 10 30 tonight the clouds are here, a scattering of light showers. By 8 oclock tomorrow morning though youre really going to need the umbrella especially across south jersey and delaware. Heavy rain and through the day on and off periods of rain. 1 oclock, its still raining especially to the west. The evening commute looks very wet especially philadelphia and areas to the east. This is where we could have some very heavy downpours. It tapers off late tuesday night into wednesday morning but i really dont think were going to see the sunshine on wednesday. Have to wait for thursday for that. So, the latest future showing were looking at a pretty good soaking. Generally about threequarters of an inch of rain to an inch and some areas along the coast could get more than 2inches of rain. In addition to that its going to be windy tomorrow a raw northeast wind. The philadelphia area is looking at sustained winds up to about 25 miles an hour but gusts up to 35 miles an hour. Along the coast sustained winds 20 to 35 with gusts 40 to 45 Miles Per Hour. So, all in all a pretty nasty day. The good news is the pollen will be washed out of the air tomorrow. Thats the one good news about this. So, the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, its rainy, its cool, its windy tomorrow with a high of 56. Wednesday still pretty gray. Morning drizzle, the low clouds with us really all day, 68 degrees. But look at what happens on thursday. Its brighter, its warmer right in time for day one of the nfl draft. If youre heading down to the parkway for the festivities at 10 oclock, its going to be 70 by 4 oclock 79 even by 10 oclock still very mild, 70 degrees reaching our high of 80 but it gets warmer. 84 on friday, 88 degrees on saturday, very close to the record high of 90. Sunday the record high is 91. Well be within 2 degrees of that. 89 degrees. Could get a few popup showers or thunderstorms again on monday a chance of some afternoon thunderstorms. And very warm with a high of 84 degrees. So, soggy and cool tomorrow. By the end of the week i think some of us will be complaining its too hot. Not me. All right, thank you cecily. I like it.
