ft behind by the rain. >> first though, threats' check in with katie for updated forecast. >> i come bearing better weather knees today. in terms of the fact, giles it, won't be anywhere near the excessive rainfall we had yesterday. soap while we do still have a number of watches and advisories to tell you about. they start to expire, pretty soon, and we will not be dealing with anywhere again near the widespread coverage for one thing nor the rainfall intensity that we had yesterday. let's go back out to little bit more of localized zoom on storm scan3. looking at three hour loop. you can see what's happened. we went from such a heavy rain, through the baltimore area out to southeastern new jersey to now at this point things that are fizzling away, to the point that you don't even have anything actually falling from the sky in most of atlantic county, for example, gloucester, camden county, so it is get being better with time. the storm in it entirety really frontal boundary, actually still needs to sag south. so, we are unfortunately still stuck with additional showers additional, you know, pocket of rain throughout the course of the day here. but they'll come through much more scattered in nature, as far as that flood advisory i

mentioned moment ago really just until 5:30, another half hour you're stuck with the receding rainfall that led to the flooded roadways here across southern new jersey, delaware those are the only spots that you have a flood advisory, but flashflood watches last us just another hour. generally across the board here only place exempt from that, lehigh valley, pocono region, which you are still finding showers up there even at this hour. looking at couple of the eyewitness weather watcher others, we had very excessive rain. james sent in over 3 inches on his rain gauge and there are quite few locations where we saw similar, if not higher totals than that. now, as we go throughout the day, again, you will probably still want to keep umbrella at the ready. but not going to be dealing with the torrential downpours like yesterday brought. meanwhile, more of on shore flow has kicked in. that means, it is a little cooler by comparison, i would suggest extra layer at best, mid 60s on the they are mom term today. justin, we send over to you. >> if you don't like the humidity, you will love it today, as soon as you step

much rain we did have, we haven't had much issue with a lot of streams coming out of their banks, creeks, doing the same. we just haven't had too much rain, as of late, so it hasn't been a concern. but, certainly, when it comes to travel, it is out there today. of course, justin will be updating you all morning with the details there. as far as storm scan3 goes, right now, it is not terrible. you are still finding some rain currently falling from the sky. and it is going to continue to do so in more scattered nature, throughout the day today. but, i would call it occasional showers occasional rain. the leading edge of our front still up here. that's got to drop south. so the pieces of energy, the moisture keeps rolling along this front. and as it does so, we're waiting for this thing to just sag off to the south. yes it finally will. but it will be so close by that it leads to additional shower chances for the next couple of days. so today of the next several probably the wettest of the pack. nothing like yesterday. back into the mid 60s here today with more of on shore flow then we see temperatures rebounding at least somewhat here, back to the low 70s on

wednesday, more clouds than anything. but with this front so close by i'm allowing for shower in the southern counties specially, thursday see them triggered again, not to mention friday. so calling this somewhat of a dreary pattern for you. temperatures at least are going to start to rebound from this point. but today, it is cool outside. you know, scattered showers around, you have also got the clouds, limiting the sun so it doesn't feel quite as warm to you as it is. 65 degrees, the expected hyatt best, and we drop to 58 tonight. and then looking forward in the eyewitness weather seven day, temperatures do at least start to mick modest rebound with more clouds than anything for the next couple of days. i got to tell you no one day of the next five is totally clear cut. we are getting a loft discrepancy on the modeling lately. saturday i would say probably the best shot for totally dry day. certainly will be milder day as women. 82 degrees, the expected high by that point. so on uphill climb eventually. but you got to break out of this dreary pattern at some point. >> at some point. >> eventually we will. >> it will happen. give it time. >> my man good morning. >> at least no white knuckle
