What do we have coming up later on today . Another cold front chillier air behind it. And, yes could fire up few thunderstorms, later on in the day. If you look out to the west of us you see that it is chilly enough in western new york, and northwestern pennsylvania, to cause little bit of frozen precipitation. Dont worry about that here. Our concern after 3 00 p. M. Is for the possibility of thunderstorms, we just see tiny bit of rain up there in bucks county, this morning. That is about all we can find at the moment. I think it wont be an issue much for the rest of the morning. But now seeing this cold front march across the state. And by about 3 00, 4 00 this afternoon, it starts potentially firing up some thunderstorms, just depends on where you are when those thunderstorms happen. Could you get one or maybe not, thats what we call isolated thunderstorms, then you see early tomorrow morning, the possibility of snow again northwestern pennsylvania western new york but it is april 22nd. So normally, we arent talking about snow. But it just will be chilly, to start the day tomorrow, and friday, and then wont get out of the 50s either day. So enjoy the 66, 67 degrees that we will get today while it is here. 41 degrees mount pocono, 42 allentown, 50 in the city.

And then, that should be it for awhilement looks like nice stretch of dry weather but will also be much cooler than average especially, tomorrow and friday. Cool weekend but you should see sunshine both days, bob kelly this is what we call sweater weather. Sweater weather yes, 5 47. Good morning ton a wednesday live look at the ben franklin bridge new construction pattern went into play. Come out of the toll plaza out of philadelphia, only three lanes open some emergency work that went into effect. Indefinately now leaving south jersey we have quick traffic jam, all nine lanes that far toll plaza going into only three, and then once you make it up to the upside midspan it opens back up, so give yourself extra time coming into philly. Big back up on the benny beginning today. Updating situation on the roosevelt boulevard, nasty accident now confirmed, it is a fatal crash upper drive closed northeast philadelphia. Going outside to our steve keeley, who has made it to the scene of this accident. Steve, what can you tell us . I see the crash right behind you there. You mean the rest of the northeast philadelphia seeing horrific crashes on this boulevard, this car the worse car ive ever seen. You can easily understand, why this is a fatal crash. Soap what you are looking at that wheel thats the gas cap above the wheel. So the back of the car is gone and the front of the car, i dont even know where the engine is right now but thats the drivers door, and as bad as the rest of the car is the drivers side and seat probably the only thing left somewhat intact and the driver killed. Now, were going to pan to the right. Youll see chevy up there with two people standing outside. I just talked to those folks and she says the passenger told me this guy in this car she said it was a guy passed them flew by them and tried to cut them off. And these people were nice enough to stay here, and be witnesses and cooperate with police. So the police are going to talk to them, get their side of the story. Ill go up and maybe get them on video if they dont mind being on camera. She said this guy driving irradically there is guy paid the price for being road rage err with his life, she said. So the inner bound loops of both directions of the boulevard are shutdown and probably will be for the rush hour because they have to investigate this fatal crash the Accident Investigation Team has to come here and so here is one of the witnesses now walking by here this guy nice enough to stay here, and explain to the officers what happened when the road and well try to find out from him what happened just beforehand. But you have a story here, when it comes to that incident and then you have the traffic story that bob kelly will be following all day, chris lauren because whenever the boulevard is shutdown at least half of it you have got one two three lanes, and each direction so six lanes the inner lanes of the boulevard cross over lanes all shutdown. It will be a traffic headache out here for sure. That pairs in comparison with loss of life. Look at the car. You can tell why this was fatal crash. Yes, absolutely, steve. Correct me if im wrong that stretch where youre standing right now inner bound lanes or the lanes where you can really pick up some speed. Winding road, curve road, i said it is like a highway to cemetery out here. There are so many roadside memorials for people either getting killed while walking or driving and a lot of times you have people under the influence, and too soon to tell if thats the case.
