One temple student saw the situation and started raising money to pay for the much need repairs. Temples Basketball Team also wanted to pitch in. Blan my giant. Trying to make me eat my greens . Low. No, just trying to save you some green. Whaaat . thousands of blue tags. Thousands of low prices. My giant. Time for the weather. Its hard to imagine well have sun rain and snow all in 24 hours. I know. April snow is not that unusual. Really . But the last time it happened was 10 years ago. So, its been awhile but. Oh, boy. It is on the way. Dont shoot the messenger. At least you know about it ahead of time. Storm tracker6 live double scan slowing that this is the dry before the storm. I dont want to say calm before the storm because weve had some gusty winds today and weve had plenty of cold air. 50 degrees in philadelphia now. Down from our high of 51 which is a full 10 degrees below normal. So, i hope everyone took my advice and bundled up when they headed to the villanova victory parade. Cape may 48. Millville 51 and it feels even cooler with these winds out of the west, 21 Miles Per Hour in philadelphia and these wind speeds will about double tomorrow night. The reason why, this. Satellite6 along with action radar showing this bundle of energy. This is the clipper. It will be moving right over us tomorrow and it will intensify when it hits the coast so that means essentially an allday event. Future tracker showing 8 oclock in the morning the snow is here west of philadelphia, mainly rain south and east and then it really just continues on and off at varying rates through the day. Around lunchtime some areas of heavier snow north and west of philadelphia and extends really through the i95 corridor around 4 oclock and finally this entire system will wrap up by saturday evening and this is when the winds will pick up. So, what are we talking about . Again, this is april. This is not february. So, most of the snow will be melting. South and east of philadelphia just a few flakes. Along the i95 corridor were looking at a coating to up to about 2inches of wet accumulation on grassy surfaces. Yet north of the pennsylvania turnpike, though, this is where well see the highest amounts, about two to 4 inches again on grassy surfaces so these are some things to consider. Temperatures above 32 degrees. Roads will be wet. Elevation is key. Within that two to 4inch band the Higher Elevations will get closer to 4inches. Strong lift with this system. So that is potential during the height of the storm that we could get some thunder, some thundersnow and then in the evening as it depart were looking at wind gusts more than 40 Miles Per Hour and what that will do is pull down some very cold air. So, a freeze watch has been posted. This will become a freeze warning tomorrow. 11 oclock on saturday night through 10 oclock on sunday, so where the growing season has begun like earlier in this week you really do want to cover up those plants to try to help them survive the night. So, the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, tomorrow its just going to be a really nasty day. Snow north and we have the of philadelphia, rain south and east. Its breezy, its cold, the high only 43 degrees and then temperatures dropping below freezing by sunday morning. So, i know a lot of people are are running. Love run philly future tracker showing the wind chill when the race kicks off at 8 oclock in the morning, 23 degrees. So, you definitely do want to dress in layers if youre running. Even in the afternoon it is going to be on the cool side with a high of 50 but mostly sunny skies, some high thin clouds late in the day so sunday definitely the better of the two days this weekend. On monday, we bump it up to 61 degrees for the phillies home opener. It comes at a price, though. Lots of clouds with a possibility of some showers. Tuesday looks like the wet day next week as a cold front pulls through, occasional rain with a high of 60. Wednesday we drop down to 57 degrees but we bring back some sunshine. Thursday and friday pretty quiet, partly sunny both days, 58 degrees on thursday and friday up to 60 degrees. Temperatures finally up near normal. I am getting more computer information. Ill have an update on those snowfall tonight on action news at 11 00. Thank you cecily. Celebrations today started long before the parade that got going in center city for Daniel Ochefu.
