overnight hour. because most of the region is reporting temperatures above freezing that's the good news. right now, though, it is 32 right on the borderline in willow grove. light wind and some light freezing rain micking in with rain to the north and west we still have some areas of freezing rain eileen reporting in some cold temperatures there with no wind and through south jersey and also through delaware temperatures right on the borderline. greg reporting in a temperature of 32 degrees and look at this picture he sent in. some ice if you can look at the tree right here a glaze over the tree. the ice build up in his yard and hopefully that will be melting with warming temperatures overnight. take look outside. in philadelphia we do have some areas of fog. this picture taken from camden. campbell's field looking across the bridge. right now, in philadelphia we're at 33 degrees. just above freezing but remember the ground temperature is even colder. so you know the air temperature could be above freezing in wilmington it's 36. you could still have slick spots as we widen out you can see

the change over from rain to snow is a huge factor for the amount of accumulation. how long the sleet will last before we get to the snow. the track of the low and the front little bit farther to the south. higher accumulations go even farther south and also the speed of that area of low pressure all things are going to track overnight and tomorrow. temperatures rise overnight with patchy fog and some rain. during the day tomorrow, some rain with temperatures in the 40s changes over to snow during the early morning hours of thursday. it will be a slow go thursday morning and afternoon. it gets much milder over the weekend feeling like spring as daylight saving time begins on sunday. >> can you believe it, already that time again. >> can't believe it. >> ready to springford. >> the eagles are springing forward no doubt about it they are changing the face of their team. >> chip kelly very busy. making a lot of decisions the biggest of course shady mccoy reportedly shuffling off to buffalo watch did the eagles get for the team's all time leading rusher. more on kiko alonso coming up
