thing for me. all right, let's take a look at the live neighborhood network, we get things underway here, live look, looking at the camera outside whitt fields elementary camera , it showed a little bit of movement. in other words, some camera shaking courtesy of the win, but the winds not too terrible yes, little more noticeable throughout the day. but, it is nothing that is going to be damaging, and certainly nothing like what we will finds with the next system. so let's take a look at the eyewitness weather watchers, all for the most part off to pretty consistent start, flirting with or just above the 40 degrees line in many spots, we will check in with fran in one of the colder spots at 39 degrees. generally has nice clear sky in hot ingham. his wind flow is only at 12 miles per hour sustained, but did have gust up to 14 miles per hour, so that's just one example where you do still have a breeze, sky is clear. all-in-all i call this pretty decent day. past the neighborhood met work zone, broad zoom, yesterday, long gone, where the winds is coming from, however. but this guy, this batch of moisture, means pretty much at

this point sort of strewn out, no real organization shown just yet, circulation far north of canada, but the front that comes with this are what really cause the headache, into the upcoming weekend. so we just break down the pattern, today looks great. it is the weekend, that goes again downhill. >> this isn't wash out after day but certainly is a wet afternoon, generally speaking, so if you wanted a window of dry weather opportunity, the a m hours are your time frame saturday. then cold the comes folds. it won't have to caught us up with us yet, mainly rain, but the northwest wind kicks in, will likely snowflakes far north and west of the city. so it is wet, it is cold, it is windy, now the wind, dow think, is the biggest issue for the marathon itself. but as we take a look, actually, i want to jump you ahead to the seven day, so see how things pan out at this point, still have to deal with wind even monday, but sun will

return, and another rebound, on tuesday. meisha? >> all right, katie, thank you so much. and we are looking outside right now, do have couple every accident, i pull to your attention, 422 westbound past oaks, right lane compromised, and take a look at how slow moving it is around this area. dropping less than posted speeds, and you kind of squeeze by. see it there. hard to kind of see through the glare. but it is pulled all the way off to that right. and bumper to bumper. car hit a deer, route 309, so again, just heads up, take it easy out there, even though it is friday, tends to be one of the lighter travel days. seeing some problem spots, really seeing them all morning long, accident investigation, still underway here, in pennsauken township. so route 130 northbound, at route 38, and route 70, all lanes are closed. you will have to use an alternate around this. cuthbert boulevard is your best bet. and, also, senior community living center, closed between

goshen road and ashbridge street, pottstown pike and high street is your best bet. jim, over to you. >> this weekend the national dog show returns to our area. in addition to the competition , spectators will get to see some amazing agility dogs in action. >> yes, this is not your average game of fetch. these dogs have some serious tails. jan carabeo live in observation this morning with a preview. good morning, jan. >> reporter: rahel, jim, good morning. the national dog show this year has more than 2100 dogs. that's more entrants than in the past ten years, 190 breeds , there is so much to see and do, to talk little bit more about that, is lourdes, trainer here at the dog show, so, lourdes, tell us who is your friends trotting around behind us? >> echo, a boards err collie, demonstrating little bit more about this breed. this breed is very agile. we will go through agility course, demonstrate how well he does on. that will here we go. you ready? >> wee. yes.
