378 in the distance, south mountain out there. all pretty visible. you will not have a view like this every where. we have seen some to go developing and quite a to locations, keyword is it is patchy but still out there because we are gathering more moisture in the atmosphere and that is allowing combination of light wind for that if you go to form. to watch for it, and we are going to see it at worse drop below a half hyle. we have seen that already. as we take you out to the the eyewitness weather watchers, we have a couple report here and there generally mid 50's up and down at least across delaware river. 55 degrees from ken this morning. he does have a handfull of cloud overhead. let's see if i can find one more outlined here, here we go, we will go out to chester county where 54 for tran. we have more cloud then anything in nottingham. humidity climbing up, up to 98 . indicative of the fact that moisture is building in the
