12:06 pm
becomes much more serious, it is about perhaps a foot of water on the roadway here on walton street, back by the bay, in ocean city, and this is a pretty typical flooding pattern, when you have high tide. what's happening, a lot of wind has been going on for the past week hitting the shore, you have high tide cycle coming off that super moon, last weekend. and now you are going to add in lot of rain and nor'easter like conditions. they are bracing for that first 11:00 this morning, they had a meeting, a conference call, with the local emergency managers, with the county emergency management department, and they're pretty much getting on the same team, making people aware of evacuation possibilities, getting all of their as nets place, and mitigating any things they can do to casino of reduce the flooding in the street, cleaning out drains, things that far matter. so we just spoke with the ocean city emergency manager, just little while ago.

12:19 pm
06 degrees out there, chilly, wind out of the northeast at 18 miles per hour, you bet you feel that when you walk out the door. and i'm happy to say that the light rain that was falling has slacked off a bit. that will helps. really is there anything more fun than walking out and having rain blowing sideways? not really, right? that's not good time at all. so, take a look at storm scan3, and you can see, this is where joaquin is right now down in the bahamas. this is the weather that's ahead of our stalled out front. so two different things happening right now. stall out front what we are dealing with today, tomorrow, into saturday. joaquin what we will deal with as we get into sunday, monday, possibly tuesday. this is the light rain, you can see, now some of it kind of going to the west, north of philadelphia, not bad, not seeing heavy showers out there. but certainly a long the shore seeing showers, too, and you're already under coastal flood advisory at the shore. so you can see here, they are under a warning, in places like atlantic city, ocean sit, we will be under watch as you move further inland including philadelphia as we get into this evening. those of you on the look-out for flooding, you got to keep
12:20 pm
vigilant today. 18-mile per hour winds, that's what we're seeing right now in philadelphia, it is out of the northeast, you can see, everybody up in the teens, as we head through this noontime hour. so it is a little blustery out there. if we take a look at future weather, track this forward for you. show you how this works out. so our front is stalled out. low pressure system riding along, right in front of it, and this is friday 4:00 p.m. see very heavy showers coming through, our region, so that's when i think we could get the next hit of significant rainfall, we get into our saturday, early in the day, we've got rain, but then catch little bit after break on saturday afternoon. but not for long. because there it is, joaquin, is going to be on its heals. so, friday wind, rain, rain will be heavy at times, by saturday little morning rain, some wind, some cool temperatures, by sunday into monday, we're watching out for the effect of joaquin. all right, so let's talk about these different models, keep hearing about these models, one says there is the other one says that. two of them in disagreement right now. at odds with each other.
12:21 pm
this is the gfs says this this kind of tracks along the coastline. and what that means is if it is kept along the coast, rain, wind, inland flooding, certainly, possible. that is one model. the other model it is at odds with is the european model. >> this one has been very stubbornly want to go take it out to sea, hasn't budgeted whole lot, we've gotten new data in, you can see it takes it out to sea. that would mean significantly less impact, still breezy but lessee rowings, and certainly less to worry about. the truth is probably somewhere inbetween. right now, though, this is where we stand. it is a category three hurricane in the bahamas, winds sustained at 125 miles per hour, expected to strengthen briefly to category four, and then move up the costes you can see, monday into tuesday, starting to lose strength, but still tropical storm, very close to our shore line communities, and yes, we are in that cone of certainty or uncertain turn at this depending how you look at it. what i can tell you we will get something from there is likely to be a loft winds and rain. in fact, our chances of getting some tropical storm
12:22 pm
force winds in that 20 to 30% chance range specially along the coastline, and as you knee can cause power outages, and lot of big problems. so, we take a live look at storm scan3, this is where we're at today. this has nothing to do with joaquin, it will certainly give us some rain. today looking for hi, of just 63 degrees, breezy, light rain showers, overnight tonight low of 58. and look at your seven day forecast, not just because it has got a lot of rain in it, which it does, but also because, look at tomorrow's high temperature, are you eddie for this? 58 degrees is the high. now, look, today, 59 is the overnight low. wow. >> eighty what two days snag. >> yes, and a lot warmer than that even not too long ago. so, we've got a lot of weather on tap. key take away, everybody make sure they're staying on top of what's happening. so keep tuning in, checking in with us. >> thanks for helping us with that.
