heavy rain around with temperatures in the mid-50s. so still a mild day. the rain is not here yet, though, it's right around the southeast slowly moving in this direction. so it will get closer overnight, but it will really start to move in right around the time that many of you are hitting the road tomorrow morning. right now we just had the clouds around, but that rain is on the way. here's future weather. we'll see the chuds overnight, but then you see 7:00 in the morning we see our first area of showers move in. south jersey and delaware the best chance for this in the morning, even up to the philadelphia area. then by 10:00, the yellows and oranges show you where the heavy rain could be. we could see the heavy periods late in the morning and even right around lunchtime. some could be confined right to new jersey. areas north and west, you could miss out on the heavier rain but by the evening commute a lot of it will be moving out. 5:00 p.m. tomorrow evening. most of us should have a dry evening commute, but light

showers could be lingering. then toed from, it will get w d win windy, but it will be dry. a little cooler, too. windy with highs in the upper 40s for friday afternoon. then we're going to drop another ten degrees going into saturday afternoon. so right now we have the mild air in place. take a look at what happens with the weather pattern. that cold air moves in place. starting off next week that mild air comes back. now we look at thursday. this is christmas eve. that cold air is way up to the north. and that mild air comes back in. that's why we're talking about possibly record high temperatures next week closer to christmas day, believe it or not. patchy fog staying about the 40s. we'll see that rain around tomorrow developing during the morning commute, but heavy at times. especially during the middle of the day. temperatures around 50 degrees. the average high is 44 degrees. we'll stay well above normal even as we go into tomorrow. friday is going to be colder and

windy, but we'll see be above normal for this year. but relatively speaking, it will feel quite a bit colder. by saturday, upper 30s, more like winter football weather by sunday. but there you see it, mid-60s by next wednesday, the day before christmas eve. and then we could continue to keep warming after that. >> people do want it a little chilly for christmas eve to get thel in the holiday spirit. >> at least something. leading up to christmas eve, it's going to be rainy, too. >> all right. >> not what you expect. all right, sheena. christmas came early for kids in philadelphia thanks to the police athletic league and the phillies. the toys handed out were donated by fans at the toy drive. they presented a $10,000 check to the center. and the flyers traded their helmets for santa heights tonight. they delivered a truckload of toys to the salvation army foster care center in winfield heights.
