alert weather radar and you could see the showers moving in. steve sosna is timing out the rain and possible snow early next week. steve? >> that is right. we're all over the place with the weather. hopefully you enjoyed the mild weather today. temperatures up around 60 here in philadelphia. and here are the three bullet points i'm tracking. we have rain overnight for everybody. but then the rain begins to shift to the south and east on your sunday. so areas like the jersey shore and delaware beaches, you have the greatest likelihood of rain. monday looks quiet but tuesday light snow especially western sections in the afternoon. but i think a greater storm is up here on friday. that one has the potential of laying down some snow. and maybe some accumulating snow here for a good chunk of the area, more on that in a second. but a live look outside in wilmington. feels anything but like snow out there. 56 degrees the current temperature. and the wind out of the south, southwest at 14 miles per hour.
11:17 pm
and philadelphia a temperature in the mid to upper 50s. a march like evening. so heading out you don't need your jacket. 53 in allentown. 50 in coatesville. and 56 in dover and mid-50s at the jersey shore. so enjoy the nice weather while it lasts because it won't last. 52 for tomorrow. that is a little bit cooler. comes with the trade off of clouds and morning showers in philadelphia. 48 degrees, a nice day on monday. and then tuesday and wednesday we drop back into the lower to middle 30s. i don't think we recover much of next week. so once we do cool down, we'll be in the cool air for quite sometime. but overnight lows are on the mild side. 47 in philadelphia. 39 in allentown. 47 in vineland and even 47 down in south jersey. watching the radar the last couple of hours, noticing these green filling in. that is light sprinkle activities. nothing heavy but enough to put the windshield wipers from time to time during the overnight.
11:18 pm
the steadier batch of rain is around state college toward pittsburgh into west virginia. this whole band of rain, while not very intense, it is steady and pretty consistent. so we'll see that rain coming in here during the overnight hours. waking up on sunday morning, you early risers dealing with showers and maybe an umbrella as you head off to church. brunch-goers, north and west is cloudy during the lunchtime hour. but down to the south and east, notice how the green is consistent. it is steady and it continues to the evening. so have the umbrella from atlantic city toward cape may and from south of wilmington toward rehoboth beach and then kicking out by the time we get into monday. temperatures tomorrow in the lower to middle 50s. not as mild today. don't expect to see any sunshine like we saw during the day today. again your greatest chances of showers south and east. so let's look at the super bowl outlook for anyone that is headed up to minneapolis. now again the game is indoors but you have to walk to and from
