when they get closer to the tropic of capricorn, as they will around december 21, then you have the winter solsus. really the only thing going on here. but it also has cents a huge impact on our weather, on seasons, in fact, the fact that we're on tilted axis is the only reason that we actually have seasons. if we continue to see the sun over the equator all the time, would you have 12 hours every daylight every day, you wouldn't have any seasonal changes, and i would be out after job. let's look at storm scan3, we continue to track the retreat of area of low pressure, really just saw the front at boundery roll through with this, skies continue to clear right now, pretty much across the board at this point. so temperatures will eventually start to take a little bit after hit here. but, you know what? this is a good day, despite bit after breeze, a little bit cooler outside, i'll give that you, but still going to expect full sunshine, just feeling a bit more like fall, and now it is at the point where the kids probably want to take an extra layer specially waiting outside for school bus, fo

direct rays are over the equator just south of the tropic of cancer and north of the tropic of the capricorn but over next three months over the fall season, we will lose almost three hours of daylight and average high temperatures will drop from 76 degrees, which is tomorrow, down to 43 degrees which we say hello to winter in three months. we will look at the numbers tonight feeling very fall-like. coolest night in four months. so very appropriate by tomorrow morning it is 42 in will allentown. forty-four in reading. forty-seven in wilmington. forty-three in millville. and 50 degrees, in philadelphia but brian when we come back and look at that seven day forecast, you want a little more summer? we will get a little taste of it over next week. we will talk about when in the seven day. >> a little dessert. >> yes. >> chopper 6hd over the scene of the car crash in the mayfair section tonight. that is when two cars collided, one of them crashing through the fence of the home at intersection of farnsworth and leave vick street. it was just feet from a child's play set. the fortunately no one was

the course of fall, and into winter, eventually the most direct rays will fall over the tropics of capricornually as they sort of migrate to the north again, over the tropic every cancer, that's when you have the summer solstice. so all of this really means is that because the earth is tilted on its axis, we see that change, and where the direct rays are, on a daily basis. and as a result we get our seasons. so important, if we did not have tilt on the axis of the earth, all we would have would be 12 hours every daylight every day, no change in the seasons, we wouldn't have season at all, in fact, just basically the same thing happening day after day. so, that basically the whole reason we have seasons and weather for that matter. daylight lent is another thing, another of what happens when the solar energy moves, in terms of its most direct rays. sun starts to set later and later, tonight going down just about 11 minutes shy of 7:00 p.m. by september 30th, 6:45, and then 6:00 p.m. on the button. on halloween night. so, we lose all of that daylight at this time of the year, the whole reason

tropic of cancer or the tropic of capricorn? if you have been listening all morning, that the tasha, you get to go first. see if you can do erika proud. >> oh, no, she will be really disappointed. i'm going to say, oh, boy, c? >> c, equator. >> and you would be correct. >> well done. the words equinox, basically, it means equal rays, so on the equator equal rays of sunlight across both hemispheres, of course what's happening at 10:29 p.m. won't actually see that happen, because it is into the fall, sun on the other end of the earth. go ahead, take a look what this will mean for our forecast, now, typically with the beginning of fall you start to see the fall foliage pop in here. but not too much color out there just yet. specially around our area. we virtually have no color change on the trees just yet. but, it is just matter of time. give it few more weeks, we will start to see some of the leave peeping going on, a lot of people just love to head up north and see the colors. storm scan three still quiet. high pressure still in
