morning. >> we need the umbrella this morning. soggy start for the day. >> katie, how is sit looking for the rest of the day. >> we like to be specific about do you really need an umbrella. i say go for it. if you leave the house any time this morning, it is not the worst idea because this rain is coming through pretty widespread in coverage and pretty steadily at times too. so you've got that going on. it will slow you down. eventually we will be stuck with cloud but for now looking at storm scan three the brunt of the moisture, you can see across the southern most portion of the del marva in the last hour or so but here at home, we have had our fair share of soggy conditions here, and thinks all a warm front related but we're generally watching this moving from west to east and sort of start to dry out with time. there will be eventually some more moisture that fires up outside our viewing area into central pa but overall cloudy afternoon, wet start. so that is what you are looking at here. sixty-seven is the current temperature at the airport. we will not see much movement on the thermometer because

we've got the rain but also the fact that the cloud are just stuck in place for better part of the day. we will eventually warm up here but we will only talk upper 70's, isn't it funny how that can sound cool at this point but regardless it is cooler then average and we are expecting showers to linger for everybody at least through the rest of the morning. now looking forward well, we do have have more wet weather on the horizon here, guys even though things brighten up tomorrow, not to mention saturday fathers day will end up being we think a pretty soggy holiday. it is also official season of the summer season. that is something we have to track in the days ahead as we continue to also track what is left now of tropical depression bill. that is where that will be coming from. we will track that for you coming up later in the show, in the meantime, vittoria, i know you have your hand full. now back over to you. >> absolutely.

katie. >> we do and it will be messing with your morning drive out there today afternoon is in the looking as bad but we are going to be stuck in the clouds all day so damp, clear i and we are sort of front loading the forecast with the worst of what the day has in store in terms of how it will impact you. lets start off by taking you outside, show you a few of the live neighborhood network. light of the day popping up over the horizon here. we would be brighter with a nice clear sky but outside beach patrol headquarters there you have it, certainly some dreary conditions out here on the shore points, and that is going to continue for the rest of the morning. even later on today more cloud then anything. storm scan three shows why, we have got this warm front that looks like a full on disturbance but it is a warm front lifting through to be followed up by a trailing cold front, tomorrow, here is what is now left, of bill, currently a tropical depression still a well define rotation but lots of tropical, starting to lose tropical characteristics with regard to the pressure and the wind, but

again, it is all about the moisture that this is pre duesing and oklahoma and arkansas are bull's eye. we will get in on it. that is why i mentioned it. we have a warm front. cloud, showers, second half of the day more cloud then anything. we will potentially see a stray shower tomorrow but overall a brighter day and we will see sunshine. then saturday in the a bad day, perhaps a shower or storm, most of you end up dry. would i say make those outdoor plans regardless because by sunday, that is when bill makes its arrival here at least is what left of him and will bring in heavy rain and thunderstorms to the area let me give you a quick sense of the seven day. we will jump here ahead. eighty-six on friday. we said a shower and certainly some sunshine for you here, sunday the next soggy day on the forecast and it is unfortunate timing. maybe have a fathers day barbecue, something like that, first day of summer, it cannot usher in the season with the bang and nice weather but we have the heat, that much we

though, late these afternoon we are left with cloud cover and, here's what is going on, we will start off by taking you out to storm scan three steady rain still falling right around urban corridor here and it will continue to do so for next few hours. notice a few breaks back near lancaster county, dover but doesn't necessarily mean you are catching a break until we hit early afternoon. just expect it will be a little soggy for next few hours, all warm front related but what it does do is certainly knocked back any poor air quality and knocked back pollen level and knock back uv index here for you here. index values are virtually nil today because we will in the break out of the 07's. first pitch for that 1:05 game here likely just looking like things are drying out at that point. so i think there may be a tarp out on the field initially but they will remove it in time for the first pitch here at the ballpark. meanwhile we are talking 77 at best for daytime high with the showers in the morning and

then just cloud later today. tomorrow brightens up nicely for more sunshine so we should warm up to 86 but there will be a chance for a stray shower out there. pretty active pattern right now, vittoria. >> we will plan accordingly for that. good morning everyone. if you are planning to head out and about notice that the rain will definitely slow you back. give yourself a few more minutes. lets see how you are doing at the moment. traveling on the ben franklin bridge in delays in either direction but take a look, a pretty nice shot. kind of beautiful but notice that the lights are picking up some of the dampness and slickness on the road so give yourself more time out there. all of the bridges are moving well, platt bridge, delaware memorial bridge and burlington bristol bridge in problems. vine street spray expressway construction lifted earlier today because of the weather but in delays in either direction, and we do however have construction on the roosevelt boulevard in the northeast affecting north and southbound lanes between rhawn
