Then it moves off the coast in time to give us a dry day tomorrow. Not bad with the timing on that but later tonight temps are really slow to drop. If youre out there 9, 10 oclock at night, its going to feel like well above average, 60 degrees by the Early Morning hours. Thats when it drops down to 48.

Sunday partly sunny cold 41. Monday staying cold, a high of 41.

Well be telling you some colder temperatures this time tomorrow. All right, matt, what we got in traffic right now . All ready for the holidays for sure at dillworth park which is great news. Not all of us are all ready for the holidays but were working on it, right. We had lots of road work overnight on the highways but right now a lot of those zones are clearing out and were looking good here along 422 as you travel eastbound by oaks in toward king of prussia. No delays to speak of just yet. There was not overnight work here but there was work on another chunk of 422, the eastbound side closed overnight as promised coming out of berks county in toward pottstown. It is reopened and ready for you now but it will close again tonight and pretty much each night this week at 9 oclock. So, when its closed, ben franklin highway and high street or else 724 are alternates but right now 422 eastbound is opened and ready for you. Getting word of a new problem in east Goshen Chester county, a vehicle struck a deer. That deer is laying in the roadway along Reservoir Road at bramble lane. Never like to hear about that. But watch out for the deer they are out there especially dusk and dawn. Westbound packing up near Fort Washington so a couple lanes still out there and then on the turnpike in bucks county we have a zone in each direction along the turnpike near del val. One lane blocked each way. At this point no big delays. Overnight construction at the burlington bristol bridge has cleared out. They packed up and all lanes are reopened. In south jersey even though most of our zones are gone were hearing now in the one work zone along 295 northbound at 42 on the ramp there is going to stay out there until 8 oclock. If that ends up happening, that could cause some pretty big delays this morning so if youre trying to get to 42, im not sure i would do so via 295 northbound. I think that could be a chokepoint as the morning progresses. And work in Egg Harbor Township on the garden state parkway northbound just cleared so you are good to go there on this tuesday morning.
