sense what they are finding generally all near or just below the freezing mark. so, while i don't think black ice is necessarily as much of an issue, i do want you to be careful out there as you travel, keep an eye on the car thermometer, expect maybe little slick, damp roads, certainly still out there. the wind, in fact, mark one of the new err weather watchers welcome to the program finding virtually no wind at all. back into pennsylvania, 32 degrees, right at the freezing mark coming in from david mitchell. he too seeing nice clear skies. so despite the fact there is a storm nearby, we are clearing out nicely, we go one more 27 comes in from ed seeing nice clear sky. trace amount of snow, he report from last night. again, let's go on back to what's going on, with storm scan, and really, your eye just goes right to this. this there is virtually nothing else to see here, high pressure billing in, the storm that obviously just barely grazed our area, now, currently pulling away, everybody is basically done with any snow at this point,

the heavier travel days. today has been no joke. and i think it is because we do have slick roadways this morning, trying to get it cleared up as much as we can out there with the warming temperatures, still slick out there, give yourself couple of extra minute, look how busy this; where we had an accident clear 95 north at cottman, the two rate lanes blocked, then it went down to just one right lane, now just being congested, wow, moving northbound, southbound, give yourself couple of extra minute, overturned vehicle here, route 113 northbound, before lime vin stale road near the pa turnpike we are getting report lanes are block, and it could affect actually both sides of traffic. so make note that far in and around this area, and also, this is where we had the accident clear, route 13, st. george's bridge, all northbound southbound lanes are now reopened after we had an accident on both sides. make note of that. that since cleared. great news for those of you in and around the area. also construction here, the schuylkill eastbound off ramp to the boulevard. one lane is blocked between nine a.m. and 3:00 p.m. erika, back over to you.

like that, spring eat grasses and other fruits and vegetation they can find, but they have the nice warm hair to keep them toasty. >> and so soft too. >> will slow down, and sleep a lot in the winter. but in the spring that's when you start to see the babies. >> oh, right. >> now, they are pray animal, which means there are a lot of things that like to eat them. so people get nervous because they'll find the babies in little bowls in the grass, okay, lever them, don't get worried where is the mom. mom doesn't necessarily hang out at the nest, doesn't want to draw attention to the babe us. >> who is up next. >> we have some turtle, just going put jessica and roger away. >> i know meisha has a box turtle at home that she has had since she was nine years old, still kicking. >> yes. >> further also pretty long lived, and this is native species. now, this is one that hibernate. what's fascinating type of pond turtle. so he lives in streams, rivers, lakes. and what they'll do swim to the bottom of the pond and

actually kind of shutdown, everything just slows down their process, so doesn't need to come up for air for month. all of the oxygen he needs he can absorb through membranes of the mouth and the rearend there. once things start to be thawing and warm up they come up, start seeing them. they also mate in about march to june, or then again in the fall. they mate in the fell, wait until the following spring to lay theiring. >> interesting. only 302nd left. do we have another further until. >> yes, certain special friends out here, as well, an owl. >> an owl that we have, yes. this is our box turtle make it break for it. >> they'll freeze in the winner and be thawing out in the spring like everyone else, usually stay in football size range they live in their whole life. >> incredible. last but not least, saved the cutest for last? >> this is owed end, he's screach owl.

and this is an owl that you typically start to hear in the spring doing the calls for mating. and a lot of times when you hear owls, you think who, who, this is more like a screach sounds. >> don't be scared. >> and the way they'll mate is the males will keep calling out screaching to the females, they are pivoting, whole little dance ritual. and if the female is impressed by the screeches she will start moving closer until they finds one another. >> and but the full coloring. i love it. before we go, we want to talk about special event, special program, special anniversary, too, flight. >> yes. our founders day today. >> congratulates. >> founded today in 1812. so pay as you wish admission. >> come out, check us out, we have lots to see, live animal shows where you can see more friends that live at the academy of natural sciences, and you can enjoy some of the fine exhibits that we have. >> karen, thank you so much. >> oh, thank you for having us. >> mike, thanks for coming in. thanks to the animal friends. >> just terrific. >> he likes you. >> oh, i like him, too. we'll be right back.
