been dropping out of the north. currently though they are calm not only here in philadelphia but across much of the region so a tranquil morning as you step outside. we still unfortunately have that area of low pressure rotating down to our south and that is shoot something clouds into the region. it does look like today is going to be a clouds and sun mix with more sun the farther north you go and more clouds the farther south you move through the region. it will be warm, too. 74 degrees as soon as 10 o'clock. then by noon into the 80's and by 3 o'clock 86 degrees. again we expected that

that storm to stay to the east of the island, but at the same time close enough to probably put quite a bit of wind and rain. it is kind of flies that -- nice that it's going to the east though. your
