kate joins us now with our forecast as we head into the weekend. >> the weekend's here. it is a nice summer weekend but it is fall, but you know that is either near or there. little details. it will feel like a great summer weekend. i will want to hit the beach with temperatures heading to the middle 80's, that is 15 degrees above average. tomorrow looks quiet but then we are tracking chances for rain heading in to next week. lots to get to. we will check with our eyewitness weather watchers. lets start off with a look outside, out to the new camera in plymouth meeting showing us an overcast sky. we have had a few breaks of sunshine here this afternoon but in and out of the cloud. we have been talking about the reason all week long the suburb front that stalled just overhead right at a lot of cloud cover this morning and more sunshine through the afternoon but now looking hazy and bit gray there in plymouth meeting as we looke toward city of philadelphia checking in with our weather watchers they are reporting temperatures above average.

we are seeing 80's on the map here 80 with allen in delran, new jersey, allen says it is warm, humid, tomorrow, too, with a possible showers, and he sent thus photo. this is what the day has looked like all day long, just cloud, a few breaks of blue sky here and there but certainly not most sunny day we have ever had. as we head to the north and to the west we will check in at 77 with marty in chalfont, he has mostly cloudy skies at his location, he says dew point is 67, very high dew points, dew points in the upper 60's puts us in that steamy to oppressive range when we will get in the 70's. seventy-nine at ed's home in chesterfield, new jersey. he started the day with cloud cover you can see here in the morning, well, cloud, not too bad, blue sky but turned out nicer in the afternoon, you can see trees turning, blue skies through the afternoon. as we take a look down the shore we will go tout margate where people are coming off the beach, warm enough to be on the beach today not a ton of sunshine but not a bad day to sit out on the sand.

this is october after all and when we can get temperatures around 80 and park a chair on the sand and enjoy it for a couple hours it looks like these folks did just that and now they are heading off of the sand ready to start a friday evening. storm scan three shows our frontal boundary right about here just stalled overhead, little cloud cover witt, maybe a stray shower but actual center of the storm is here. thinks all lifting to the north and associated cold front from that is not going to come through until monday. that is front that will pick up tropical storm nate and send it north and eastward into our region for your columbus day. as we lookoc few spots seeing more sun then others. we have cloud over portions of montgomery county and heading in the city. very unseasonably warm stretch average high as we head in the weekend is just 70. look at how warm next few days will be anywhere from 10 to 15 e and it doesn't look like we will break any record today, we were more than 10 degrees below that and over next couple days falling short off the record. through weekend it is

relatively quiet, a few showers here sunday but steady rain associated with nate that will come in monday morning right about here and it looks like heaviest will be north and west, our average, rainfall for month of october is 3.18 inches of rain. we have not had much yet but we do need to start climbing toward that number. as far as right now is concerned or tonight it is down to 65, partly cloudy warm and humid, sunday 82. monday rainy day thanks to nate and then by next thursday or friday it cools down and back to more fall like levels. we will be right back with traffic and sports.
