And were 10 to 15 degrees colder than we were at this time yesterday when we were already starting to cool down with those east winds. And at the shore, 70 degree ocean temperature, so that limits how cool it can get at the shore. But that is plenty cool. 63 in ocean city, avalon, 64 Cape May Point and stone harbor. And its chilly, especially since weve seen so much warmth during the month of october so far. These are some sprinkles on the radar, fairly light rain showers. Nothing else coming in from the west. So we just have to look to the east for that lighter rain. We also look to the east for the winds piling up the water and causing coastal flood advisories for minor coastal flooding happening this afternoon. And in the back bays and up through delaware bay and maybe even delaware river, that is happening right around now. And in the next couple of hours. So there could be some localized flooding in the normal spots. There is that wind floe cow com in off the ocean. As long as its happening, those clouds are not going anywhere.

And anyplace that gets a peek of sunshine is lucky. At the shore, we could see a couple sprinkles. But 70 degrees Rehoboth Beach is about as good as well do tomorrow. Now, for temple on saturday, we have temperatures in the 70s. Maybe some peeks of sunshine. Just a chance of a couple showers. Not too bad. For the eagles, certainly not football weather. Temperatures will be in the 70s, high humidity, some scattered showers around. And that is what well be seeing there. Around here over the weekend, temperatures going to start going up. As soon as we get a little bit of sunshine, temperatures could go up into the 70s on saturday and into the 80s on sunday. That is way above average.

You cant hear what he says from this video taken in early october inside the 7eleven on new town road, but you can see how fast he acts. Its not the first time this masked thief struck and it seems like it nts would it wont be t. Were not talking tons of money. Reporter the thief only gets a couple bucks because cash drawers are light thanks to the increased use of credit cards. But at every stop the crook grabs cigarettes and a lot of them. Whether smoking them or selling them. Reporter and the masked man with a big gun is thought to be the same guy who hit the 7elev 7eleven, same clothes, same mask, and same gun. What police dont know is how far the guy runs away, is there is a waiting car and is this case connected to others. There have been reports of masked robberies similar to this one in upper dublin and also upper more land and towns in bucks county. At one spot, there was a witness. He waited across the street and when we showed up, he told the police this is what i saw, helped us out greatly, gave us more of an area to look or specific area to look. Reporter but he escaped again and now police want to know if anyone is helping him get away and pull off these crimes. And that is where you can come in here. If you see a guy running from a Convenience Store or gas station wearing one of those masks, police say dont approach, stay a safe distance and pay attention, see if he gets into a car or or where he takes off running to. And police when arrive to a scene like that, again, wait for police to approach you and then tell them everything you know. Reporting live in warminster, deanna durante.
