franklin bridge. notice how the camera is not shaking this morning as the winds as promised are subsiding is. we've got single digit winds across most of the region this morning. that's nice. 34 degrees in philadelphia, though, so coat appropriate weather certainly maybe some of that extra gear. below freezing in trenton allentown reading lancaster wilmington, millville. 39 degrees in cape may. little bit milder next to that milder ocean water. and satellite shows that you it will be a morning for shades on highways and byways once that sun comes up because we don't have a lot of cloud cover around. some of this cloud cover will manage to start to filter in later in the day and tonight we'll get mostly cloudy although most of the precipitation that you see out to the west of us is going to wind up falling apart and that will be more of an issue overnight up in the poconos. up in the lehigh valley sun, some clouds, less wind, 48 degrees the high. down the shore looks like we'll get into the low 50's in some spots, ac51, not as windy, sun mixing with some eventual clouds and in philadelphia morning sun, sharing the skies this afternoon with some afternoon clouds. less wind,

minneapolis, parts of wisconsin and maybe northern michigan. all of this will be moving east, too, so at 2 o'clock detroit will start to get some of this cleveland maybe a little bit after that so something to keep in mind and of course if you're flying in those areas maybe a delay, maybe not. overnight mostly cloudy, a late sprinkle is possible. this is mainly up to the north, though. 38 the overnight low in philadelphia. some of our northern suburbs will get down to about the freezing mark, though, so if you do happen to get a sprinkle up in, say, northern bucks, montgomery county, the lehigh valley, berks, places like that, it could freeze up on road surfaces. i think the chances of you seeing anything are pretty small but if it happens and you're driving around you see something that looks wet slow it down. here is that overnight precipitation. most of it snow and mixed precip up in the poconos, though. it would be an issue if you're going up there. then on thursday in the morning, cloudy skies to start out for the parade. looks like by the end of the parade at noon there could be some sprinkles and showers moving in and certainly possible during the walk back to the
