center. there's plenty of cloud cover sweeping across the region. not that we won't see some sun breaking through at times but high clouds begin to filter in and there's what's left of irma, no longer a tropical storm and anything we get out of this is probably going to be falling apart today. tomorrow i think there's a better chance of some spotty brief showers popping through. 62 degrees in philadelphia, 52 in allentown, karen's right yesterday we were down into the mid 40's in some of our northern and western suburbs. not so this morning. 58 in wilmington. 62 currently in cape may and as we go through the afternoon, not too bad. we'll see those clouds increasing as the day goes on but it will be warm and pretty comfortable. 76 degrees by noon. by 3 o'clock, that's your high, 81 degrees. and by 5 o'clock, 79. so, for the bus ride in this morning, you don't need to be quite as intense with maybe a jacket or whatever as there still isn't too much wind out there and temperatures are not quite as bad as yesterday. 54 in some outlying suburbs and 60 degrees in philadelphia more or less on the bus stop this morning. we have a chance of a brief shower here or there from what's left of irma tomorrow. we'll have that story, a little bit more instability as we head towards the weekend, karen. >> all right, dave. roads are dry this morning. construction in the process of moving out. we see traffic moving just fine on the schuylkill expressway. looking live here at the blue route, westbound traffic headed towards gulph mills and moving nicely. also the overnight construction has cleared on the schuylkill near 30th 30th street. the rest of the region you see the green traffic flow on the big picture. blue route, schuylkill, i-95 in pretty good shape. no construction on the vine street expressway last night so that's pretty good news. construction does block the left lane on i-95 near the commodore barry bridge until 5 o'clock as you're heading southbound on i-95. let's check some of your other roads like here on i-95 at route one. this is live in bucks county. construction here should clear within another half hour. in the meantime you've got the right lane blocked. you see the cones set up here on i-95 northbound heading toward the scudder falls bridge, tam. >> okay, thank you, karen. well, breaking overnight, fire tore through a wilmington delaware home. one man was killed while other person was critically hurt while trying to jump to safety.
