it is calm. hopefully it stays this calm in the weather department. >> overall a i would say we are looking at a pretty pleasant day vittoria. we have a frontal boundary stalling off to the south and that will potentially mess with some of you for the next two days. at the moment storm scan three is quiet. we are starting off on a tranquil note, zooming it out off in the distance to the southwest most noteably there are a couple showers and heavier band of thunderstorms or not even band but little clusters of thunderstorms firing up here moving over say chesapeake bay area within the next half an hour or so. that is where this frontal boundary is setting up. our southern most counties have best likelihood to end up with showers later today. we are talk about afternoon and into tonight and that front is still so close by. come saturday a new system waits off in the wings and that will bring in our next shot for showers or storms but i have to tell you i don't think fourth of july will be any kind of a wash out

whatsoever. right now it is looking pretty darn pleasant for a holiday weekend considering the fact thaw can still see then are storms popping up readily this time of the year. looking forward in the forecast today we're talking mid 80's for daytime high, seasonal overall and expect to go see sunshine along the way for most locations but you still have that chance for a shower and that will be primarily south of philadelphia. erika, back over to you. a fatal car crash shuts down route 309 south in west rock hill bucks county. investigators tell thaws a car traveling near ridge road somehow lost control and slam in the tree in the woods last night. one person died at the scene. three others were taken to the hospital. right now route 309 southbound is closed from rich hill road to the perkasie exit. driver is suspect of driving under the influence and this accident is affecting morning commute, right, torey. >> absolutely, erika. right now considering it is still is closed and it is a

this is i-95 around cottman. we are moving just fine. not only throughout, traveling in and out of bucks county, south philadelphia, i mean really we are looking great on i-95 and rest of the majors are very quiet. also keep in mind burlington bristol bridge is closed until 5:00 a.m. not too much longer than but something to plan for. no major delays at the airport. if you are traveling mass transit we are looking great for september, new jersey transit and amtrak, ukee. >> torey, thank you. we have breaking news from the philippines. coastguard says 36 people are dead after a ferry capsized in the central philippines. >> cbs news reports that ferry other turned after being hit by large waves. nineteen people are still missing. inn near a military transport plan that crashed in the residential neighborhood tuesday may have experienced engine problems before going down. now officials say it appears that the planes propeller struck a radio antenna shortly after take off causing the plane to stall. 141 people died, in that

boundary that is stalling nearby to the south. we can see moisture beginning to sort of build in across west virginia because of that. that will eventually sort of send more moisture our way right along that front southern most counties, will end up with a couple of showers throughout the course of the day to day. as we look forward, big fourth of july holiday coming up, well off in the distance, we have some pretty heavy rainfall across, portions of western nebraska. that is the very beginnings of what will be the next storm system, for our upcoming weekend, but at this point i'm pretty optimistic about the overall pattern here. today we have a front stalled nearby, keeps things interesting, right bringing in showers south of the city. further north you you go nicer it will be. sun and clouds the spectation tomorrow. still cannot rule out a shower again that front just wants to mess with us a bit. i'm's allowing that possibility. then saturday that front will start to get out of here and we will see some sunshine but will there be a sure or
