System coming from we have. Overall sun and clouds probably cloudier at the east than the west. Showers make a run at us. Late tonight there could be a thunderstorm in our werent suburbs. 73 degrees currently in philadelphia. Not horrible humidity but a little muggier. 67 degrees allentown, 73 in cape may this morning. 64 on the dewpoint scale and that is moderately humid and thats probably what youre going to be experiencing for the most part today. 71 degrees by 7 oclock for the morning run. Cool drinks before and after with a slightly higher humidity please. 78 degrees by 10 oclock. By noon 84. This afternoon well be down right hot for at least a few hours. 90 at 3 oclock and 91 around 4 oclock this afternoon. Even higher heat and probably somewhat higher humidity on the way tomorrow and matt pelman it looks like that pattern stays with us for several days. Ill explore that in the exclusive accuweather 7day. And david speeds are going from higher now to lower here along 95. Were slowing down in the southbound lanes approaching cottman avenue. Probable some School Teachers in the mix here head down towards center city for the first day of school. It is slow here on 95 southbound by cottman again farther south around girard. If youre getting onto the vine street expressway from 95 westbound youre going to hit some slowing from the ben franklin parkway out to the exit ramp from the schuylkill and 30th street station but of course overnight construction on the vine is long gone. This is the schuylkill expressway in conshohocken. Eastbound come the headlights toward the curve starting to get a little bit busy but no big delays yet along 76. There is a downed tree this morning near villanova blocking off montgomery avenue, 320 at stone ridge lane. Old gulph road or county line road some alternates. But our crash near elkins park along latham park at old york road has cleared out. Still have that water main break in northeast philadelphia blocking knorr street. Tyson or levick would be some alternates and now word is coming in of a crash in Gloucester County. Northbound 55 by deptford exit. Something to be aware of for sure. No big delays yet coming north on 42. On the garden state parkway in ocean county there was a southbound accident past forked river. Sounds like that is cleared out of the way. Youre good to go there and on the a. C. Expressway so far on this wednesday morning. Tam. All right, thank you, matt. Lets keep talk about the water main break that broken water main has left a muddy mess in northeast philadelphia. You can see all this, about 40 homes dont have water either. The Philadelphia Water Department had to shut off service just after 3 00 this morning to save the road from serious flooding but you can see there is mud caked on car tires up and down somerdale avenue. So its going to be a little slow going getting out the door for some people in this area this morning. And also happening today, Bucks County Community college will hold an information session for potential students who have been turned away by itt tech. Itt tech abruptly closed down entirely after an announcement that the government would not give students federal aid to attend the school. That meant a loss of 580 million in expected funding. This affects four locations in our area. The department of education has been investigating itt since 2004. 35,000 students in 38 states are affected by the shutdown. Brand new here, a Bucks County Community has decided to keep its Police Department following a lengthy and highly charged Borough Council meeting. It was standing room only at last nights meeting in pendel. At issue, whether to continue funding their own Police Department or outsource the service to nearby middletown township. The Borough Council president says outsourcing would save residents money and lead to more resources but critics argued they would lose much more including their personal relationships with officers so for now pendel police are staying. More and more people have been buying cars taking out loans to pay for them and then not paying the loans back. Maribel aber is live at the nasdaq in times square with our market watch report. Good morning maribel. Reporter good morning, matt. Americans are indeed borrowing more money than ever to buy cars and trucks a balance of all new and used auto loans top 1 trillion last quarter it was the sector straight quarter that loans for vehicles topped a trillion dollar mark and delinquency are on the rise. The rate of people falling behind by both 30 and 60 days rose last quarter. Stocks posted modest gains as the weak report on the Services Sector was seen as enough to keep an Interest Rate hike on hold. Futures point a higher open. A report on job openings and federal reserves beige book is due out later today. Shortage of construction workers is holding back the housing market. There are as many as 200,000 unfilled construction jobs in the u. S. According to the National Association of home builders. During the housing bust workers fled to new fields and now the market picking up builders are having trouble finding employees. That could hurt the economy as department for new homes is not being met. Matt and tam if youre in the Construction Business if you wander a job builders are hiring at all experience levels. Good thing to hear maribel and i heard another industry where theyre looking people and its hard to find, teachers. Really . No kidding. Another thing to think about if youre looking for a career. Son has got a friend who started at temple. Ill let him know. We have a few showers off the Coast Associated with hermine. Some of that did make it over land yesterday. Most of it probably stays off the coast today. Taking a look outside we have a promise of sunshine coming up over the airport. It is going to be hot later today and already you can feel that its a bit more humid today than yesterday. 73 degrees currently in philadelphia. 67 degrees in allentown. 66 in reading. 70 in wilmington. 70 in trenton and 73 in cape may. Hermine is still circulating off the coast. Does look like by later tonight and into tomorrow it will be pulling away from us maybe strengthening a little bit. Only affect on us will be down the shore with heavy surf. Well see more cloud cover in the east because of the storm. Theres a feature coming in that could trigger a shower or thunderstorm tonight. Most of those drop to the south and stay out in the western suburbs so that would be the area of concern tonight with a passing shower or thunderstorm. Up in the Lehigh Valley a high of 91 this afternoon. Sun and clouds, a bit more humid than yesterday. Down the shore, were looking at a high around 78 degrees, maybe a little warmer down by cape may and rehoboth. Sun and clouds breezy humid ocean temperature 73 but once again today we have a high risk of rip currents up and down the jersey coastline. Could wind up just being moderate risk down Rehoboth Beach but even there i would be careful. Remember theres not as many lifeguards out there and nobody to help you out if you get in trouble. Probably not a great day to be in the water past about your ankles or so. 91 degrees is the high in philadelphia today, sun mixing with clouds, a little more humid, not oppressive but certainly stickier than it was yesterday. And then overnight tonight partly cloudy with that evening thunderstorm out to the west of philadelphia and a low of 73. And then tomorrow, we get a cold front coming at us a more pronounced flow out of the south ahead of that front and that bumps up to 95 for a high. It will be humid and probably feeling like about 100 in the afternoon. That 95 just 1 degree off the record then starts a series of days where well be in record territory. Your exclusive accuweather 7day, 91 today. Hotter a bit more humid. Tomorrow near record heat, 95. Near record heat on friday, 94 which would tie the existing record and near record heat on saturday with a high of 96 just one off the record high. By saturday night a front comes at us triggering a shower or a thunderstorm and some of that rain may spill into sunday morning but were hoping for some drying sunday afternoon in time for the eagles and then a better high of 88. Boy, monday and tuesday just look great, though, low 80s, low humidity and lots of sunshine. If you are headed to the temple game, the union match or the eagles contest this weekend, cool drinks would be part of the plan if i were you. We will remember.

Taking a live look here as you see dawn truly begin to break here at penns landing. 6 12, 73 degrees and were getting going on what dave murphy says will be a heat wave getting up to 91 today. No rain right now, so you just got to get people to Pay Attention out there matt. And that is quite the challenge to get people to Pay Attention sometimes especially with all the modern distractions, the phones and everything. Put them down focus on the road and well all be just fine. So far on 95 were doing okay. Were just starting to move a little bit slowly southbound approaching cottman again from allegheny through this point at girard. Looks like we have a vehicle on the side right here by the girard avenue off ramp but all lanes are opened. However, traffic in them, yes, indeed, is starting to move slowly. Right there in fishtown girard avenue is closed once again today until 2 oclock this afternoon right by 95. Theyve been doing this during the middays and it is happening once again today. Over on the schuylkill expressway so far no big delays. Speeds in the 40s and 50s. Those delays will crop up probably in about 15 minutes or so. We have that water main break in northeast philadelphia thats blocking off knorr at somerdale. Tyson or levick would be better bets than knorr this morning. And of course donald trump coming to the union league later on this morning so theres going to be added activity along South Broad Street just south of city hall. Then the boss, Bruce Springsteen comes to Citizens Bank park tonight for a concert. Friday night hell have another one but tonight watch out for extra traffic there in south philadelphia. Have a downed tree were watching this morning near villanova blocking off montgomery avenue, 320. Old gulph road or county line are some alternates. Still some overnight work on the northeast extension. Its northbound approaching the Lehigh Valley interchange. The left lane is blocked and theres still a crash in Gloucester County on the northbound side of 55 right by the deptford exit as you head toward 42. At this point it doesnt seem like that accident is impacting speeds a whole lot. Looks like youll be okay there along 55. New construction got under way yesterday in wilmington. Simon road now closed for the rest of the week until friday night around 7 oclock so wilson or weldon roads better bets to get around that new work zone. Matt. Thank you, matt.
