7:33 am
over later on. this evening in the city we'll have some precipitation. mostly the very light rain, but few wet snowflakes, could be mixed in during the overnight hours. here and there. so travel say between ten p.m. and 2:00 a.m., you may encounter little bit of that. but it will be tricky. because it will be above freezing, but barely above in the city, and little chillier, in the suburbs. our first taste of winter weather, tonight. >> sue, did you really mention the s word? >> i've been trying not to make a big deal out of it. >> four letter word? >> snowflakes. >> little bit. just little. scene? south philly, huge turn out, parents, neighbors, they want no part of a casino, in their neighborhood, at least this group of people. so there again, new casino, proposed to go up at ninth and packer, concern, well, school safety for their children, let's get to kerrey barrett with more on this.

8:07 am
the middle of it. >> she need to go to jail. she needs to go to jail. that was murder. >> well the police are with her at the hospital. and i'm sure it will be straight told us within an hour of getting the 911 call this woman labeled a suspect, because she had just minor bruises on her and her story in his words just didn't add up. >> alex, mike? >> the roommate, talking about a woman, 57 year old woman. neighbors, they new something was coming. >> yes. >> this mess on the ben franklin bridge, a truck overturned, my gosh. >> so, lauren just got there, on the scene. i mean, traffic is just really back up.
8:08 am
right here at the teleplays arc back up just moment ago, as soon as you guys talked to us. mike and i came over the bridge from the philadelphia side, and you could see that lumber truck was back upright. it had overturned around 6:30 this morning, lumber, spilling all over the bridge, they had got ten into a secure area, there are cones up over at the end of the base of the bridge. so, traffic is being kind of like pushed into two lanes. back up over, there i'm sure we saw one lady, completely turn around at the toll plaza on one way street to be sure to avoid this area at all costs, so i'm sure long waits getting across the bridge this morning, if you are coming this way, might want to take amount that the route. i know bob talking about it all morning, but back here on the ground, from our vantage point, traffic on this side is not as bad as it was about ten, 15 minutes ago, so could be clearing up, quicker than we thought, since it has been about an hour and a half since this happened. >> looks a lot better than it was before. that will was completely jammed an hour ago.

temperatures were in the 50's, at this time yesterday. so, that's first thing. now the second thing is the precipitation situation. we don't expect to get any of this lake effect snow that is starting to get going around cleveland, buffalo this morning, thanks to the cold air moving over the great lakes that haven't frozen over yet, and are far from t fox future cast, jump ahead later, around 2:00, see little light rain in harrisburg, then this area of rain moves through, from northwest to southeast, and any time after 4:00 maybe some rain way out to the west, a little bit of snow, up in the poconos, probably just a coating, if anything at all, and then it, moves through, hit our area, probably, anywhere between 9:00, 10:00. and 2:00 in the morning. mostly light rain. but if the temperature gets cold enough, could see little wet snow mixing in, out late traveling tonight this could be an issue for you, but still does look like for most every it is will be light rain, ground still though very warm.
