face it, very low-lying cloud cover, typically the skyline off in the distance here, clearly not visible, clearly, obviously not the best word to use when talking about this, i mean, clouds really settling in for us, and with the rain pounding down as it is in some of the spots, you will get slowed down just naturally, by the weather so hopefully awed chance to maybe get out the door little extra early here set the alarm, but the rain coming down at the heaviest pocket through delaware, near wing mink ton another little batch up toward bucks county and across the border into border. >> out toward dover, that will be with us, really any time here today. stead jest rain this morning, and then this afternoon at best low 50's. don't expect to see sunshine tow today, guys, and again it is a dreary day, you have got the tell tail raindrops on the camera lens here on "skycam 3", and temperatures currently into the four's for us across the region as whole. forty-eight right now, that east wind at 17 miles per

a big crack-down as philadelphia police target illegal dirt bikes and atv's. police seize 53 vehicles and arrested at least one person yesterday. police say that people die from accidents involving the atv's and dirt bikes every year. and it is a big problem, especially there is time of the year when the weather gets warmer. >> individuals run up and down on the sidewalks, people are

afraid to let their children play in areas that the dirt bikes are riding, they rip up recreation areas. they rip up the parks that they're in. >> they have no regard for the safety of anyone. >> dirt bikes and atv's are illegal to ride in the sit unless they're on private property with the owner areas permission, so if you see somebody riding around on one of those atv, dirt bikes, you are asked to call police right away. >> slick roads are being blamed for a series of crashes in north carolina involving more than 100 cars. little rain last night making driving just a mess on interstate 40 outside of raleigh. about 20 people were hurt in multiple wrecks, but everyone is expected to be okay. in addition to the wet roads, police say, rubber necking drivers may have caused several of those crashes, and katie we have wet commute this morning, hopefully people taking it slow. >> hoping people will at least just either have set their alarm little extra early to get out the door or expect you might be little late here today because the rain will always naturally slow you

down, that's just the way it is. our eyewitness weather watchers temperatures generally mid four's, pretty decent consistency, anywhere from the pine land areas out to the urban areas out to the inland suburbs, i mean, generally speaking just very consistent weather across the board here today. 46 degrees comes into us this morning from ed, finding some light rain falling here in chesterfield. another one, take you down the pike little more, so 46 degrees temperature coming in from phil. he, too, finding the light rain. we go out to yet another one in the mid 40's, and there one goes out to chester county where fran is also finding light rain. so again, a lot of consistency finding on the area map at this hour. and, that sure shows it, right? you have pretty soggy conditions across the delaware valley at this point. heaviest rain pockets at the moment, falling across portions of delaware, and then up through eastern bucks county and portions of mercer county. really where you find the worse of the conditions in terms every rain that's currently falling. however, our temperatures, don't move all that much today. also going to notice a breeze

i've seen people take it, work out, their blood pressure, heart rate goes real high. here is the danger. if you rely on caffeine for energy you will need it. if you don't have it you're going have the energy lowe's, so better to have energy naturally, cut back on the caffeine, eat healthier foods. >> one person of the daylight saving time, more sunshine at the end of the day. >> for those who get up early at 6:00 we're used to to the light now. when you get light it energizes us, now dark, so little lack of energy in the morning. for those to get up later yes, they'll have more energy because they have light tend of the day. so catch 22. i think they should just leave it one way and we'll all adjust. >> real quickly, any tips for parent, if your kids are crank think morning, not getting out of bed. what do you think? >> put on more light. go to bed 15 to 30 minutes early each night for the next week it, will help them re acclimate to this time change and they'll be better. >> doctor rob, thanks so much,
