meteorologist, adam joseph, is outside. we are starting to see an indication that rain may be an issue on sunday. >> it's a threat here especially sunday, saturday does look good and it will be on the dry side but as the weekend comes the weather continues to be on the sunny side, this morning temperatures 57 degrees and it's a cool start in allentown and millville, upper 40s and trenton 51 degrees and we bounced back, 81 in many locations, including the lehigh valley, trenton to wilmington and cooler at the shore, 72 in sea while city. there is the culprit, the rain is expanding from yesterday and now pushing inland to charlotte and raleigh, north carolina, and this low will continue to slowly drift off to the north as we go into the upcoming weekend and we are tracking an increase in clouds and it will turn very breezy and much cooler as we go into the weekend, also that breeze will create some trouble at the shore locations for saturday and sunday, and yes that chance of rain is creeping in as far north as philadelphia.

meteorologist, adam joseph, has the exclusive accuweather seven-day forecast next. >>> as we look atan live radar most of the area is dry at the present time, rain that opposed through is now lifting northern of allentown and north of easton, as you see near martins creek and chatman heading towards the poconos, before the rain fills back in later tonight and early tomorrow morning. it is extremely muggy out there and that is helping to enhance the rainfall totals over the next 12 hours, 81 in millville and 80 in philadelphia and 72 in allentown it dropped there because of recent rain and that will kick back up and 77 in dover and sea isle city 75 degrees, the moisture is gathering to the north and west and a cold front draped between toronto. and that will lift to the northern and west and that means the rain will be near that low as you go farther away in the central part of pennsylvania, at 8:00 tonight, rain in the poconos and the lehigh valley, south and east, and it fills back in midnight and thereafter, and maybe the rumble of thunder north and west. and early tomorrow morning
