6:45 am
in the delaware. you can't even see that. we're just socked in with some low clouds, fog, little bit misty outside right now. right now 59 degrees, calm winds, breeze to help mix-up the air. this fog should dissipate later this month. but notice, nothing showing up on radar. so all of the mist you're dealing with, just the fog, and loath clouds right near the surface. so we are starting to dry out in the upper levels of the atmosphere, still left with low level clouds just kind of hanging tough. here is the left over energy cut off from the jet stream. still situated over the great lakes right now. that's going to slowly track off to the east and northeast over the next 24 hours, so we do get the slow improvement in the forecast. maybe few peaks of sun this afternoon, don't count on it, though. fifty's, to low 60s over most locations, mid 60s near the shore right now. we still have that northeasterly breeze. that's coming in right off the ocean picking up some of the moisture, ocean water at 67 degrees. that's typically what our air temperatures are right now. pocono forecast, same deal.
6:46 am
not looking at much sunshine. partly sunny, 65, monday, low 60s tuesday under partial sunshine. we will get some more sunshine headed into the work week, but i don't think we'll see the fun sunny day that you normally would get in the fall season this time of year. but we have to wait on that until this pattern kind of clears out. look at this. this is matthew, category four storm, wind at 150 miles per hour, about 330 miles southeast of jamaica. starting to move now to the northwest, eventually going northerly over the next three, five days. so, here is the forecast model. the overall predicted track by the quirking models. takes it northerly, through tuesday, moving into the bahamas, probably as strong category three hurricane. where does it go from then? looks like upper level trough or cold front will help push it back out to sea, late next week, or late this upcoming week into the weekends. that's good news for the delaware vale. so if this is the case we start to move off shore. but still, close enough to maybe bring some impact to the outer banks, so if you have
6:47 am
trip planned there next weekends could get little rough. obviously, rough surf is going to move into the jersey shore as well by the end of the upcoming week. not un come ton get storms this time of year. hurricane season runs until november 30th. get it any time during the year. here's where we, are coming off the peak, see the big drop off in the frequency of storms. but this is something little interesting. mid late month of october, usually little spike in activity. so, not un come ton get these storms this time of the month. okay, back home today, clouds, maybe few peaks of sun, stray shower possible, overnight. this is 2:00 a.m. monday. monday looking little better. more clouds to the north, more sunshine the farther south you are. monday afternoon. but here is the overall pattern. core of cool air, upper level energy causing low level flow here out of the northeast, take some time to move out. finally later monday it does, get little bit of ridge here. warms us up little bit to the 70s, then watch what happens, notice this little piece right here, that's actually the model picking up on matthew,
6:48 am
tries to push it back out to sea from this trough, the jet stream, that's going to be key in our forecast. the fact we move through the eat coast, quicker it turns out to say satisfy. morning fog and mist, 72, spotty shower possible tonight at 60, here's the extended forecast, pretty much dry through the upcoming week, clouds around, not whole lot of sun, low 70s, maybe showers saturday. >> looking good, thank you, justin. time now 48:00. let's check in with ann evans at the cbs-3 traffic center. good morning. >> good morning, rainy day of course. we do have foggy conditions, so drive very carefully. >> this i95 northbound, walt whitman bridge, headlights coming toward the walt whitman bridge. no delays on i95 this morning, and the walt whitman bridge in good shape earlier we had an accident on it, but since then it has cleared. it is good to go. again just drive carefully. we move the traffic cam here, there you go. and this is a shot of the schuylkill at spring garden, no delays or problems on the schuylkill this morning. again, you have to drive carefully, roadways can be slippery in this type of weather.
