Storm tracker6 has been showing us that were dry for the last couple days and satellite still backing that up. You can see lots of sunshine in play. As we get past the sunrise hour, a little bit of cloud cover out in western pennsylvania has been falling apart overnight and like yesterday we expect it to be very bright today.

The construction on the schuylkill has shut down but each night through thursday night were going to have the schuylkill westbound overnight construction will block all lanes westbound on the schuylkill at the 30th street overnight each week but for now the schuylkill is looking clear. Pennsylvania conference for women weve been talking a lot about that. Youre going to see a lot of congestion heading towards the Convention Convention center. The doors open at 6 30. Watch or early congestion. Otherwise no big problems on the big picture
Weatherwise. Few issues on the roads. Lets turn to david and karen. At least the roads are dry and clear right now. They are staying that way today and for the next couple of days in all likelihood. Satellite right now shows you cloud cover well on the other side of ottawa and toronto and pittsburgh and we are looking at sunshine coming up over the horizon a little bit later, even these clouds out in western pennsylvania that tried to develop late yesterday are now falling apart. Its chilly out there once again, similar to yesterday. 45 degrees in allentown, maybe a few degrees milder. 47 in reading. 48 degrees in trenton. 54 in philadelphia. 49 in wilmington. 58 in cape may. Pretty much a repeat of yesterday. 54 degrees under the sun at 7 oclock and then up close to 70 by noon. And a high of 75 around 3 oclock or so before we dip back to 67 degrees by 7 oclock. And if youre dressing the kids for the bus stop, obviously it is a chilly start and some suburbs about 46 degrees as they are
This weekend could be the manzanita parkandride parking lot in mill valley. These are some pictures of flooding in the area from last year. Last january. It is prone to flooding there in that area. King tides are going to produce coastal flooding and a warning to be careful driving during shoreline highway and park drive in marin county. But it could be interesting. Also be careful along the coast in between everything. We had wet roads this morning. The weather may exacerbate the king tides. Until then there is a lot of fog out there. Good all missed old missed and drizzle and milder temperatures for sure. Some of this fog is thick some dancing around but there is a plume of moisture that the i will take aim at the bay area. Cloudy skies and very foggy and some brief light to moderate rain. It goes and goes. I try to focus on marin county. Anywhere from coastal areas marin county and also said Santa Cruz Mountains and there will be steady drizzle and steady rain. North bay in the 50s
