may 42 and wilmington 43 degrees. satellite6 and action radar showing the clouds have flowed d in after a good amount of sunshine earlier today. as you look to the west you can see some of those showers. that's where the warm front that will be pulling through overnight. so, as it does, we'll see lots of clouds, a spotty shower possible. temperatures barely falling at all. 35 degrees in the cooler suburbs. about 40 for center city. so actually our overnight low tonight is going to be warmer than the temperatures over the weekend. future tracker showing that this front, though, will bring us the possibility of some rain for your morning commute. around 7 o'clock, you can see a band of some showers really just north and west of the i-95 corridor. looks like south jersey, delaware, you should be dry. this lifts north during the day and then the rest of the day pretty much dry but lots of clouds but temperatures will be on the warm side. then we have a cold front roll through in the wee hours of the morning on wednesday and that's actually a squall line of some gusty thunderstorms.

wouldn't be surprised if we do get a rumble of thunder. the cold air will be arriving behind that system but it will be delayed by about a day. associatioso the next two days y warm. 63 degrees tomorrow. kind of al dirty sky cover, though. lots of clouds, a few showers. that fronts rolls through in the wee hours of the morning on wednesday. wednesday just as warm, 63. but it will feel cooler with the winds gusting and this boundary will stall to the south by the end of the week and the weekend. waves low pressure developing along that will bring us a couple opportunities for some snow. association the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast, tomorrow plenty of clouds, a few morning showers. it will be breezy with a high of 63 degrees early wednesday morning again could get a rumble of thunder with that that front moving through. remainder of the day mix of sun and clouds windy but still mel pretty mild. 63 degrees. thursday temperatures step down. mostly sunny, 44 degrees. friday is when the first of

two low pressures rise along that front. it doesn't look to be a big system but it could bring us some wet snow or rain friday morning could complicate the morning commute. 41 degrees. and what that does, it pulls down some very cold air for the weekend. looks like this weekend could be even colder than the last weekend. 36 degrees on saturday. mixture of sun and clouds. don't forget to spring forward one hour as we begin daylight saving time and sunday looks to be a more sizable storm. the big question does it miss us to the south or does it move far enough to the north to bring us accumulating snow? that's still literally up in the air, 35 degrees, whatever happens on sunday. monday stays cold with a high of 40. i'll get new information on an update on "action news" at 11:00. >> i bet you will. thank you cecily. there was dancing and singing in pennsville today. because a woman celebrated her 105th birthday. >> ♪ happy birthday
