actually tried to get out, getaway but he was eventually caught. police are trying to figure out what caused a car to crash this is building late last night in delaware county. chopper three was over cvs pharmacy on route 320 in swarthmore. car went through a wall and window at 10:00 o'clock last night. there were no injuries reported. another car hit a wall in west philadelphia just after 12:30 this morning. one man in his 30's is in stable condition at presbyterian hospital after the crash at forty-fourth and haverford. no word on the extent of his injuries, it is also not clear what caused this crash. all right. very happy hump day to everyone. lets get over to katie because we will need an umbrella today. we are lasting long enough rain and persistent long enough that it will warrant that extra step. let's show thaw actual radar here and it is only at this point starting to move in our far western suburbs. leading edge of the rain that

is. you can see within this, a couple of pockets of steadier rain and not facing any kind of really soaking direction rain out of this but you don't want to get stuck without your umbrella. i do think you will need at least an extra five minutes depending on where your travels take you. hopefully you have, forsite to set the alarm early or skip a step on your morning routine but this front will be passing through no matter how you land for it and we will have to deal with some showers throughout the day. in the wake you can see skies are just shoot sailing, completely clear skies, at that point, temperatures in the lower 50's from philadelphia to trenton. we've got 40's elsewhere. we're still off to a mile start for the standard. we will drop off more before the sun comes up, off to the south, we have milder a your in birmingham, little rock but you can see that darker blue shade begin to show in the contour happen. that is some cold air that will be coming in the wake of the coal front moving through now, so we've got 30's in omaha, bismarck and list goes on and reenforcement come in

by friday. so tracking this one more time come 7:00 in the morning the rain will at least be knocking on philadelphia's doorstep if not already here. lingers for tail even of the rush and possibly in the afternoon. we're talking 3:00 p.m. there could be rain. it is a slow moving front, and even by 8:00 in the evening, new jersey or delaware could have a lingering shower. then high pressure build in for thursday, breeze in the wake of the front, and another cold front does come and will bring moisture starved but it does appear this is what will really, reenforce the chill, that first front crossing through thousand we are not making too much of it. we will likely see a tenth of an this much of precipitation out of it. some models like our r p.m., that picks up over .4 of an inch for philadelphia specifically. you know here and there again it is enough to slow you down. nuisance rainfall though. fifty-nine is the expected high, cooler by comparison, much cooler by comparison but dose of reality for november 9th standard. forty's for overnight low as

skies clear out and we expect that chill to continue to settle in come saturday. we will struggle to break out 40's. meisha, back over to you. thanks very much, for that. good morning, everybody. happy wednesday to you. so what we're looking at right now we're seeing levels build a little bit quicker then what we see, a little bit because of the residual on the because of the septa strike, it is getting better on the roadways in the five and 6:00 o'clock hour then what we would typically see in the six day strike per. new that it is over we are trying to find our footing again. right now this is what we're looking at, taillights in the the eastbound direction over here, westbound over here, this will be a good indication, gauge, if you will, on how morning will look the on the schuylkill. whenever it looks like this in the 5:00 o'clock hour we're in good shape. i will say that we're building a little bit around girard but overall we can expect that now. boulevard moving in the southbound direction you can see here again, a heavier flow of being the still early in

the 5:00 o'clock hour. we will see people up early this morning hitting the roadways even ones up late last night will be up early this morning, getting to work and that is what we are dealing with today. head up, boulevard looking okay, construction pennsylvania turnpike westbound between bensalem and virginia drive that right lane is block there. head up, a lot of construction is what we are dealing with a running theme, construction, at route 90 that left lane is blocked. that will be blocked until 6:00 a.m. we have more out there. this one in new jersey 42 north bound at 676, right lane is block, that is also blocked until around 6:00ah. then of course we have construction on the northeast extension. the head up on than this. northeast extension southbound between lansdale and mid count that i left lane is block, right now, hopefully that will be in the 6:00 o'clock hour we will confirm when it does so, rahel, back to you. newspaper across the country are working on getting late additions out with the news of donald trump's victory. new york times their headlines read trump triumphs, and,
