talkingutnow th can be very dangerous. when we are seek accidents out there thisng, those are, they cannot be weather. yet. we are waiting for precipitation, here but big heads up hceainly weather will . much more downhill as day goes on as morning a messy system wih snow, ice, rain and beginning to creep into parts of the delaware but it is still about at lee a half an hour away from philadelphia as this starts to spread. we are looking at a wider zoom and you have that temperature pre file rain/snow line is setting up over our area and that makes for a very weary forecast because he have we to account for multiple precipitation. in addition we have a handful of winter weather alerts net winter weather advisory only goes so far and extends in the western edge of the south jersey, so down through, kent,

sussex counties and dunn through shore points, this is just a rain pre dueser for you you are likely to end up on the, on the quieter end of the system but here, in philadelphia we have it all coming in here with snow, ice, and then rain change over, as temperature climbs, and in the shore though again we're talking rain with temperature too warm for. that up in the poconos we will see heavy snow out of this. very sharp cut off, so you need to pay attention to your local area, different forecast even just a handful of miles away. >> snow, rain, ice, three things we're talking about for a morning commute that will not be good. so as katie pointed out not weather related so far in terms of the action we have seen on the roadways but those will more than likely start to pop up a little bit. we will see what happens. but first, bridge tacony palmyra bridge scheduled to go up around 4:30. so, just beware of that heading out to the bridge soon this is boulevard off bound

off ramp to wissohickon avenue that ramp is closed. we will see flashing lights. we are seeing volume levels pick up a little bit. overnight construction we have that in place schuylkill west closed from south street to the vine, one eastbound lane is also blocked and, of course , victory parade that we are all still so excited about but we have to get through this morning's commute. heads up at 11:00 a.m. on thursday the art museum will be the route, up broad street dunn ben franklin parkway, roads will be closed. around 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. on thursday. they will start to trick until but at 5:00 a.m. ending around 9:00 p.m., in parking 6:00 p.m. wednesday to 6:00 p.m. thursday, more on this coming up in a little bit we are keeping an eye on winter weather this morning. >> snow heading our way, expected to make, roads slippery. frank does live in allentown this morning and it has been rather quiet so far, what are you seeing now, any of difference? >> reporter: oh, yeah, we actually got here well ahead

of the bad weather, it is not supposed to ramp up here until 6:00 a.m. but they are prepared here. lets take a look i was telling you earlier looking down at the street here you can see that these road is here in downtown allentown have been b rined and that was the case on our way up. we took the northeast extension up here and you could see those lines in the roadway. good news for people as you can see these early morning commuters, getting on their way, but, you know, as we go, later on into the usual morning rush those people will be running into some issues and this weather event is supposed to last throughout the day, here we could get as much as 4 inches of snow when all said and done. for now live from allentown i'm trang do for cbs-3 "eyewitness news". all right. trang do, thank you. waiting decade eagles fans will finally get their victory parade. >> preparations are underway for the big celebration. jan carabao is live outside with more on what you need to

know for the big party, good morning, jan. >> reporter: rahel and jim, good morning. we are talking about transportation to the big party, at this hour. remember when the pope was here the advice is the same for this eagles parade, officials say be prepared to walk, and to walk a lot, to get here to the parkway, come tomorrow. after all probably 3 million people, will turn up here on the parkway to celebrate the eagles super bowl win and if you do the math, public transportation will be overloaded. septa has released its service plan and they wanted you to start thinking about transportation yesterday, officials say that septa can trans port 500 to 550,000 people, to and from the parade here in center city come tomorrow. that is only about one in four people likely want to attend so, septa is consolidating stops on its rail lines to provide express style services , and to help with crowd control, that is something they have learn from the 2008 phillies parade. now the good news is once you

get to the market frankford or broad street line, those lines are both free, thanks to independent blue cross. using regional rail line service will operate inbound only in the morning and outbound only after the parade you will also need to purchase a ten-dollar special ticket pass for service on the regional rail lines on thursday, septa's goal to move a large number of people but they realize that there are limitations. >> we have 165 passengers per car when they are really loaded up and we have 156 cars that we will be putting out into service. so our capacity per hour to move customers is 35,000 passengers on the market frankford line. >> reporter: realize it will be slow going, lets get back to that independent pass now they are limited to 50,000 people and some stations tell us that they have already sold out. other stations tell us that they sold out yesterday, but they do expect to get more in today but they all warned,

that those passes likely will be hard to come by at this point. we will continue to cover all of the parade prep coming up live, at 5:00 we will take a look at the route and what you can and cannot bring to the parade come tomorrow. live atop art museum steps, jan carabao for cbs-3 "eyewitness news". >> inportant details there, we will see you then, thank you. we have everything you need to know about the super bowl parade on our web site you can see the parade route, roads, closures and learn how to get the two parade using mass transit just visit cbs philly.com or cbs local app. of course you can watch the parade from your home tomorrow on cbs-3, our coverage starts at 9:00, ahead of the celebration, we will track the crowds and traffic, then parade kicks off around 11:00. we will follow the team as they helped up broad street up toward the art museum. watch our coverage on line at cbs philly.com and cbs philly facebook page as well. well, a local eagles fan is back home after watching the eagles win the super bowl

but didn't just go to minneapolis, to see the game, kevin, also traveled to minneapolis to bring ashes of his late father to the field, his dad, died suddenfully september and getting to the field was not easy since, security was tight, one security guard denied his request but referred him to another member of the security team. >> he said are you serious. yes. sprinkles his ashes. people were staring at me. i did not care. sprinkles them in the end zone and he is on the field where eagles won the super bowl. >> reporter: he says that the original security guard who denied his request gave him a big hug after sprinkling the ashes. tomorrow is parade day in philadelphia but in glassboro it is corry clement day, superintendent have the glassboro school district made the declaration, clement was glassboro high school football star who played in wisconsin but then went undrafted. he came to the eagles and became a major part of the

offense. they say they are overjoyed. >> he said mom, i cannot believe it, it is so surreal. i hugged him, i cried with him i said, you know what, you earned this, you deserve it. >> fairy tail ending, i really cannot write an ending better then this. >> corry's family and friends say they cannot wait to have him home to celebrate sunday night's super bowl victory. we have showed so fans celebrations got a bit out offhanded sunday night. >> new police need your help to track down a large group of looters where they were caught on surveillance video coming up next. along with the snow, ice, comes salt if you are in the careful that road salt can cause big problems, still ahead advice to keep things like your car and clothes to get damaged. we are back in two

we have a incredible picture a dog in wilmington that survived an ordeal. take a look at this dog, stuck in a car grill after getting

hit, monday night. the driver didn't realize dog was trapped there until someone else spotted the than mal yesterday morning. the brandywine valley spca has taken care of that dog for now until they can track down his owner. look at this video from a big pile up on a snow covered highway in iowa traffic camera captured chain reaction crash that involved as many as 70 vehicles, officials with the sheriff's office say this is war crash they have ever seen, state troopers responded to almost 200 crashes across the state. that is in the good. >> big mess. 4:41. katie has a check on our forecast. you are talking about snow, rain, wintry mix, really. >> ice as well, this is just a mess because rain/snow line where we have got that temperature right along freezing line is lifting through our area, as the day goes on. so different kind of day, precipitation, different kind of forecast even, a county next to you, so this is something that requires a lot

of detailed discussions which we don't often have time for, but lets try to get you to the nitty-gritty basics here. we have on set of this in the next hour and a half or so but big picture shows a lot less of this, it is a warm, cold front but happen to come through during same day affecting both commuteness a substantial way. i throw not only to future radar but future temperatures to understand why this is taking place you will be in the 30's down to the south, but only teens, to the north, so way cold enough to support snow, initially for us for a decent amount of time in southeastern pennsylvania but as we get close tore freeze ago long i-95 it turns over to some icing and with time it gets milder and milder and turns over to some rain. there will likely be a lull between the front but it will get started all over again. you need the umbrella today but it could be not just snow but icing that accumulates up in the poconos where we will get hit hard with the wintry

weather but we have our fair share of drenching potentially flooding rain out of this through the rest of the day. i worry about ponding on the road, flash flooding for evening drive but morning commute is a coating to an inch of slush, some snow, some ice, and then we will see it turn over to rain with time. hope for that break between fronts here but this is regard list an all day event. up to 8 inches of snow in the poconos. they are probably loving this. but regardless that is a mess. now for the eagles parade we're back to sunshine but blustery weather and watch for icing, refreezing from anything that falls today, do i think that it will be a issue but at least sun back so better day for parade by comparison and we will rebound this weekend, meisha. >> thank you so much. so far on the city camera shots we are still looking okay. we have tacony palmyra bridge scheduled to go up around 4:30 but it is upright now. heading out there just a heads up that bridge is now up. we are tracking this accident

boulevard northbound off ramp to wissohickon avenue ramp still closed, the accident is cleared but squad car still sitting out there. so have your breaks traveling on by but that should be hopefully completely opened, cleared in the next 10 or 15 minutes. i will let you know as soon as he moves out of the way. schuylkill west still closed from south street to the vine, one eastbound lane was block, that will probably start to lift right around 5:00 a.m. what we have been seeing this week. i will let you know when it does but overnight close another still in place. then, of course, yes we will talk about the eagles victory parade, thursday at 11:00. highlighted things you should know where is it running? the linc, up to the art museum down ben franklin parkway to the art museum. roads are closed starting at closures at 5:00 a.m. and carry through around 9:00 p.m. thursday, no parking this begins 6:00 p.m. wednesday night to about 6:00 p.m. thursday and more on septa details when it comes to the parade coming up in a bit, rahel and jim, back to you.

salt on the roads and sidewalks may help solve problems this morning as we travel to work. >> but may create other problems for your car down the road. it can cause rust on your car to prevent damage make sure any chips have been sealed, some experts say nail polish will dot trick and get your car wash as quickly as possible after driving untreated road making sure that the car wash including an under carriage cleaning. >> best recommendation sun out and temperature is about 20 it is still safe to get a car wash, just make sure you have to get through the car wash that your door jambs and trunk jams are dry so it prevents the seals from freezing. >> may also want to make sure to care for your clothes and shoes, salt want discolor your pants. experts say you can get rid of the salt by soaking it in water and use a cloth to dry it up, if the fabric is delicate you may want to consider getting it dry cleaned. coming up get ready to pay more for a passport, how much it will cost if you want to

travel overseas. plus restaurant is serving a $3,000 burger for valentines day, not the cut of the meat you are paying for but something else that comes with it. >> i wonder what it is? we are back in a

welcome back as we overlook a very quiet center city philadelphia from central parkway library overlooking logan square, basilica there off in the distance and nothing to speak of yet when it comes to precipitation but this is your warning, your head up, trying to beat the rain, the ice, the snow, hit the road, get on out of there, hit the road now and try to get ahead of it because right new we still have a little bit of the window getting shorter and short year this storm system gets in here and once

wet weather starts, that, you know, is going to be something that goes downhill in a substantial, quick fashion. so lets take a look storm scan right now is very quiet but we are looking at a three hour loop over kent county and it appears icing, sleet, freezing rain is now, beginning to lift into here, but this will continue to over spread the delaware valley as morning progresses. so it is right on q, really this still applies, but we were showing you this graphic yesterday and still applies, today but we are looking at heavy snow especially for poconos but even in these north and western suburbs, in that, blue shaded area two to four mixing with some ice out there too. in the city i-95, pink shaded area in short we have a whole mixed bag of snow, sleet, freezing rain initially but that, with time will turn over to rain with a brief break in there for late morning. it is mainly a rain event down through south jersey and delaware but as we just saw it looks like there may still be

slickness out there on the kent county road this is morning. would i just take your time, plan on it taking an extra handful of minutes to get where we are going here today and with the mixed bag we got it is a different issue depending where you are, know that it is coming assume it could be slick, and expect as well but p.m. rush will be just, as slow but would i say more dangerous of the commutes happens this morning because of the icing concerns before that temperature climbs. new moving forward, hey at least it is all gone in time for parade day but where bye left over icing keep that in mind coming into philadelphia and descending upon that parade right because it could be slick to get here but at least drying out, meisha. >> for morning commuters do you think around sixish. >> it is starting to move in, kent county, so would i say at this point just hit the road and try to beat it. >> awesome, thanks so much, katie, hit the road, give yourself extra time, and take it easy, out there you will to have pack your patients.

this will affect you. so we have an accident out here boulevard north bound ramp from ridge avenue just a heads up frozen camera shot there but it is getting busy around there and pass by this, so you can see flashing lights , overnight closures on the schuylkill westbound clos ed from south street to the vine, that has also all since been cleared so that is looking good there. lets talk about how vick trim parade will affect septa because for so many of you this is what you will to have take because parking is going to be no good. so septa will be your best option, couple things you have to know. septa will be running modified schedule. only flex stations will be opened so just make sure to check out our web site or, frankford line and broad street are running free ride and regional rails inbound only in the a.m., outbound only after the parade. of course we have more to talk about. there is a lot going on, patco is running a modified schedule as well as new jersey transit. more on this in the next 10 minutes. rahel and jim, back over to you. a chicago area family is celebrating an almost
