the rain could impact your travel in certain areas, and today's wednesday november between the second, good morning, i'm jim donovan. i'm rahel solomon. happy thanksgiving eve. katie and meisha is keeping an eye on things keeping an eye on things for us, good morning >> we have been saying this since 4:30 when we went live that we are seeing slow conditions out there lots of construction out there first and information mess but we are also seeing some accidents because of this. >> you and that eye brow raise >> i'm just trying to get things done early, working early. >> yes. >> head to the airport. >> yeah, yeah. >> no kidding. exactly. i wouldn't be shocked if rain starts to come into play for some of us too. some of that rain is coming down steadily. lets take a look that is intense right there across del marva peninsula, thankfully bulk across shore points is mainly out to sea, heaviest stuff but you do have tricky travel along parts of the route one along i-95, garden state parkway, this is primarily an issue for southeastern 23rd of our

region but this is also, primarily an issue, in the next couple of hours. that is good news. skies will clear out for everyone. even if you do not see a drop of rainy expect that too. fifty-two currently at the airport. fifty-five in atlantic city. you will not see temperatures rebound from these points all that much and as day goes on even as skies clear out and sun returns, it is, still looking like a more seasonal day just as cool air starts to play catch up here. fifty-five is our expect high in philadelphia, by about that point when you are hitting the road you may have traffic out there but won't to have deal with the rain drops also falling in tandem with that. my advice, even though you are saying it gets off to a rough start already, if you can wait out the rain, i would add vei that. it is out of here, quickly but coming down heavily in spots. >> that is great advice absolutely if you can wait that out because we know because it is so busy already in those areas, that especially where it is raining where katie said, would i wait it out just because of the

sheer volume levels that we are starting to see already in this early morning. we have been tracking it all morning long. it will be one of our busiest travel days. looking outside, accident here schuylkill westbound before south street at university avenue pulled off to the far left, let's see, we have got one vehicle leaving now, we have flashing lights out there but you can see how slow moving it is, behind that, forcing you over to the right, putting on your breaks and gaper delay as well. if you can avoid this, you will want to yesterday we talk about the boulevard and how slow moving it was in the morning bumper to bumper conditions trying to get on the schuylkill westbound. we had crews block ago this on ramp on to the schuylkill westbound. not here, we are hearing reports crews are out there but lot at boulevard southbound, bumper to bum perfect conditions. again, another area you have to factor in extra time. more coming up in the next 10 minutes, jim, back over to you traveling for thanksgiving you are in good company, estimated 51 million people will hit road, rails and fly to their destination this year
