quite as heavy as it will be a in some of the other areas but you're starting to see some cells getting closer to reading moving towards allentown this morning. this threat of storms continues through the day. 73 degrees right now. it is warm it is muggy. we've got a high of 87. it's not going to rain constantly. we'll even see some sunshine here and there but at any point you could get one of these downpours. by 9:00 a.m., 77. by noon, 83. by 3:00 p.m., 86. going up to 87 coming down from that at 6 o'clock 84 degrees. so that means even in your evening commute, matt pelman, you could be having some really wet roads to contend with on this tuesday. >> oh, good, so we won't miss it no matter when we head out that's great news. good morning to you, karen. so it's pretty wet right now in salem and cumberland counties but here in camden county, so far not so bad. just a little bit damp at worst along 42 with just a little bit of northbound traffic headed towards 295 and the walt whitman bridge. no big delays yet as you come northbound on the 42 freeway. headed ford ben franklin bridge, i probably don't have to remind you at this point but i will anyway westbound

assistance when the storm hit. >> more on that flash flood warning in south jersey, karen. >> yeah, flash flood warning until 10 o'clock this morning for parts of salem and cumberland counties but as you look at storm tracker6 live double scan, you can see that's not the only area that's getting hit by these storms. so, let's go a little closer. yes, we have the storms we've been following pretty closely. they've been moving through malaga and now glassboro along the atlantic city expressway and near hammonton but also starting to see some right near atlantic city and right on the coastline right here if you're traveling on the garden state parkway. we'll take another wider look and you get the sense that you're dealing with it everywhere. now, closer to the city we can see that it's lighter. we're not looking at areas of red and yellow, they're not terrible downpours but it's raining. it's in burlington county, hit or miss near the city but it's in jenkintown willow grove norristown malvern. you've got a wet morning commute. taking another look up near the lehigh valley and that's where we haven't seen as much activity but now we're starting to see some of these cells move near reading near hamburg, up nearly a town a couple cells near quakertown,

allentown has been basically dry but the threat of these storms continues through the day and night. let's go on outside. we want to see wait looks like right now and it's raining out there as we look live on sky6, lots of low clouds hanging over the ben franklin bridge. currently that temperature is 73 degrees. it's warm, it's muggy out there. it's 70 degrees. even in allentown 74 degrees in millville. and 74 degrees right now on the boardwalk in ac. so more humid than yesterday just as warm. satellite6 and action radar showing we've had these line of storms moving through during your morning commute and then it's going to be hit or miss beyond this point and we could really get that idea when you look at future tracker six. here's the look at 11 o'clock. not everybody is getting these storms but those who are are getting these downpours that are producing one to 2-inches of lane in a short amount of time and that's the problem that you get the flooding on the roadway here. 1:30 in the afternoon we're looking at some cells still popping up here or there. even at night 10 o'clock at nights, we're watching another round of storms move through. so, not raining constantly but at any point today you have

the threat of these storms. a high of 87. it's warm and muggy with a downpour at any point. by 8:00 a.m. about 76. by 11:00 a.m., we'll be at 81. 85 going the feel sticky out there by 2:00 p.m. and by 5:00 p.m., 86 coming down from your high of 87. feeling pretty oppressive with the humidity. if you're sitting on the beach you'll have breaks of sun but still these showers or thunderstorms at times. one near atlantic city now 80 degrees for your high. in bethany beach warmer, 88 degrees. here's a look at your exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast. it's humid with some downpours at times. we're seeing that now and at any point through the day or night it will continue. 87. tomorrow is still unsettled. we could see downpours especially in the afternoon when a front comes through 85. when the front comes through it sweeps all this out of here. beyond that the weather is gorgeous. nice and refreshing on thursday with lower humidity 82 degrees lots of sunshine. friday is nice and bright and 84. saturday we're turning warmer, 88 degrees. it's a nice summer weekend

both saturday and sunday have just a chance for a shower at the end of the day. sunday very warm and humid 89. monday hot and humid 90 degrees for your high. so driving through those downpours. never drive through flooded roadways. that's why we have that flash flood warning in south jersey and millville and cumberland county. >> you never know what's beneath the water. >> that's right. >> thanks karen. the war on terror hits too close to home. up next the police captain in new england who made the tough decision to turn in his own son. >> up later a polar bear goes on a prowl through a canadian campground. matt. >> soggy and slow now erin here along 422 eastbound side from approaching oaks through this point at the saint gabe's curve into route 23. of course we're seeing delays now along the schuylkill. we'll talk about them and the impact of the president's visit later today after the break. >> and the pentagon takes a first step toward allowing transgender individuals to serve in the military. that's next on "action news."

>> 6:44. taking a live look at storm tracker6 live radar and also the schuylkill expressway going westbound which will likely be hitting some of that rain as it moves in this morning. >> we're going to head over to matt pelman. hi there. >> hey guys. yeah already seeing damp conditions here along the schuylkill expressway and seeing that normal morning delay in full effect in the westbound lanes from the roosevelt boulevard through this point at the exit for lincoln drive kelly drive passing city avenue out towards gladwyne. it's just a typically slow morning. 31 minute travel time already. should ideally be 14 minutes with no delays. you're seeing those delays.

little better on the eastbound side at 21 minutes. also want to warn you during the midday today, tomorrow and thursday, on the westbound side of the schuylkill between south and this point at city avenue the roving crews are going to be out blocking lanes from time to time so that could slow us down during the midday. don't say that i didn't warn you. meanwhile this is 95 in delco. wet here as well ann little bit of northbound slowing from this point approaching highland avenue toward the blue route. nothing in the way. the lanes are opened. the road is wet and it is little slow. southbound side of 95 you know it's going to be heavy in the normal spots by cottman again from the betsy ross bridge into girard. we expected heavy traffic again at the ben franklin bridge westbound headed into the city because of the ongoing patco construction in the right lane. and i also want the are mind you about a couple other things including that naacp convention that the convention center. that means a visit from the big guy, president obama early this afternoon he'll touchdown at phl and then his motorcade will make its way up to the convention center which means

rolling closures along 95 and likely the vine street expressway. then they'll turn it around during the evening commute and go back to the airport. so we will see closures especially on 95 throughout the day today. also expect a bumpy ride, some rough conditions here along market street and south broad. they started the milling and paving work last night. so, they'll continue to work tonight but for today watch out for a rough ride. matt. >> will do. thanks matt. the son of a boston police captain will make his first court appearance today in connection with a terror sting. 23-year-old alexander ciccolo is accused of planning to set off pressure cooker bombs at an unidentified university and plotting to slaughter several students in support of isis. ciccolo's father is a 27 year veteran of the boston police force and is credited with alerting police to the threat. he also told police his son has a history of mental illness. >> the pentagon is ready to reconsider its ban on transgender individuals in the military. defense secretary ash carter says the current regulations

>> a very exciting tuesday on tap. >> too exciting. >> president's visit, a bunch of rain coming down and regional rail problems to boot. lucky us. lansdale doylestown regional rail line not running between doylestown and the penllyn station because of police activity at the north wales station. the police are out there. the trains are halted. some of you may be able to use the warminster line as an alternate. we'll keep you posted on that situation. also seeing 15 minute delays on the norristown regional rail line. that's because of signal problems. camera time in delco, this is the blue route 476 by the route one media bypass. heavy traffic in both directions. northbound you're looking at about a five minute delay so far. just damp conditions here. not terrible at this point. and 42 not even really too damp, just a little building

northbound volume. karen. >> and we do still have the flash flood warning in effect for parts of salem and cumberland counties in new jersey until 10 o'clock this morning. and not so much because of the rain. currenting falling but because of what already has fallen. here on storm tracker6 live double scan we can see the heaviest is moving out of that area but you already got hit with up to 2-inches of rainfall so they're still dealing with that on the red waysroadways.atlantic city near mays landing hammonton elmer and glassboro it's kind of lessened but we still have downpours coming down. you can see the movement lifting up to the north and east. in burlington county you have that as well. now in norristown not only some of the light rain but some areas of yellow, some of the heavier rain sneaking in and you're in and out of it in the city right now. but the real trouble with this is that we've got this threat all day long. at any point today you can see these showers and thunderstorms coming through the region so you need to be careful,. a reminder when you get there heavy rain and the possibility of flooding don't drive don't walk through it because it's really dangerous and today we

could see these slow moving storms at any point. locally one to 3-inches of rain and that causes ponding on the roadways, matt. >> thank you karen. let's take a lie picture from vienna austria where some of the world lead he is are discussing this new deal to try and temporarily halt iran from building a nuclear bomb. secretary of state john kerry is there and will be speaking about this shortly and we have just learned that president obama who will be in philadelphia this afternoon will be speaking at the top of the hour or maybe a little later than that about this break through deal as well. so something we'll follow for you here on "action news" and on abc news. this is brand new video showing conservation crews in the canadian territory using scare cartridges to chase away a polar bear from a campground. they never fired a shot at the bear and the creature eventually went across a river and back onto an ice sheet far away from the campground which is a popular fishing area. >> turning to our people scene, an autopsy found no evidence that the late blues

great b.b. king was poisoned. after his death in may, two of his children said he was murdered. the autopsy concluded the cause of death was alzheimer's disease. coronary disease, heart failure and the effects of type two diabetes also played a role. b.b. king won 15 grammys. >> letting it define you. you have got to get up and walk out the door and go to the concert and have the best time ever on a monday night.
