karen any issues on the roads this morning? it's been okay. >> highways are great dave no weather related problems, we're dry clear. this is the blue route at baltimore pike and traffic herhere is moving nicely. that's southbound traffic headed towards 95. no major issues. we have that accident on the boulevard northbound near ridge avenue but it's been pushed off to the side so traffic is moving a lot better now and the traffic lights have been out at city avenue and presidential avenue and the streets, the overhead lights are also out on the schuylkill expressway near that area so you have to be careful and we've got the sinkhole in cheltenham we have been talking about. chopper6 overhead. this is an enormous sinkhole. it's hard to see because it's dark. as they kind of shine their lights sometimes you get an idea of how large -- can you see it there -- the sinkhole is in cheltenham. watch for that. we have crews on the scene but they're blocking brook road between argyle and chefield road. it's huge and it's going to be awhi

good morning, karen. >> yeah, we've been busy on the roads.arlier accidents on the schuylkill. now an accident on i-95. we can see the police out here with the flash, lights. it's an accident involving that tractor-trailer that's right here. i-95 northbound at allegheny so traffic flow, the right lane is blocked on i-95 northbound. your heavier volume is usually southbound in this area but now northbound we've got an accident and the right lane is blocked on i-95. we've had big problems on 422 and check out these speeds. all morning long but now we're down to the single digits. 8 miles an hour. it's because of only one lane gets by now that they're doing this emergency guardrail repair after an accident. it's all happening in a busy area. it's eastbound on 422 between armand hammer boulevard and sanatoga so traffic is crawling at 8 miles per hour because of that. we did have a big problem in cherry hill, new jersey and crews have fixed the scene. we were showing you earlier they had so many pse&g workers out there working thon downed pole. 70

let's turn to david and karen.d morning. >> most of these are to the west and south of philadelphia. take a look on the storm tracker6 live double scan we've got some snow showers along the delaware bay creeping into parts of salem cumberland and cape may counties. these appear to be diminishing a little bit in intensity over the last half hour. if you have it, slow it down because we're below freezing across most of the region. there's a bit of extra snow shower activity up by harrisburg and lancaster. whether or not this makes it into our neck of the woods i can't be certain because it also appears to be falling apart but the idea is out there that if you get caught in some of that this morning you slow it down just like you diddest if you got caught in one of those snow squalls. there's additional snow out to the west. looks like that will track into our northern suburbs and change over to rain in parts of our northern areas later this afternoon. if you're up in the lehigh valley some light accumulating snow is

let's go to dave murphy and karen rogers.d morning. >> this is really the day we have been waiting for everybody. we are off to a start that features a little bit of clouds in some neighborhoods. you can see how the drying is starting to punch holes across south jersey and parts of southeastern pennsylvania, all clear skies down the pike toward baltimore and washington and pretty quickly this morning we should transition to mostly sunny skies. chilly on the bus stop this morning. 42 degrees in philadelphia, just 40 in allentown. still upper 30's in trenton. 44 in wilmington. 41 in millville and 41 in cape may. a little bit of a breeze coming in from the west. not as strong as the last couple of days. now actually down to 7 miles per hour in philadelphia. but low to mid double digits across most of the region. still 22 miles per hour in lancaster. so, cool enough and just slightly breezy enough for that heavier coat this morning. 38 degrees by 7 o'clock. still on the cold side there. but by noon we improve to 48. and we're loo

let's head over to karen rogers she's in for dave murphy ton matt pelman.e's got traffic. >> good morning. and the national weather service does have that freezing rain advisory for the lehigh valley until 10 o'clock in the morning and until 7 o'clock tonight for the poconos. let's show you what it looks like out there right now. we're not seeing a lot of precipitation for the morning hours it's looking very scattered and light at this point. we are going get some of that heavier rain later on but the concern is while those temperatures are still right around the freezing mark, so so far in allentown and reading for the most part temperatures above freezing. you see the areas of plume this is well out there near 78 and i-81 where you are get something freezing rain. but we're watching to see if this develops as showers spread through parts of the lehigh valley. we are, however, seeing some showers down in south jersey and delaware and they're a little more significant but those temperatures well above freezing. so, in dover delaware, smyrna get something go

maybe some snow showers before the end of the week karen.at coming up. >> all right day. well, the holiday is ohio river valley everyone getting bac -- over.everyone starting tk to work. this is the schuylkill expressway not looking terrible yet. we don't have a big delay. approaching belmont that's your westbound traffic headed towards king of prussia. still moving nicely but we've got other problems around the area. i want to show you the big picture. looking at a couple of accidents here. one in new jersey on 295 just cleared approaching 42. that was really a busy one. we've got one on the roosevelt boulevard and we're watching for that one. stick to the inare drive it's blocking a lane. now we have a multi vehicle accident right on lincoln drive at gypsy lane. hearing three vehicles involved. there are injuries. they're blocking lanes so that's causing a problem as well. and the pennsylvania turnpike this accident just got worse. they now blocked the ramp, the turnpike westbound that off ramp to valley forge. i told you it was involving

let's head over to karen rogers.d morning. >> yeah, you're right, we do see some patchy fog out there and the roads are a little damp. the real rain comes towards the ends of the morning commute. if you get out now you're okay. suburban traffic report time. we'll take a live look here. if you're coming in from perkasie or ambler you're about to head on 309 we're looking live here at the pennsylvania turnpike in fort washington and you can see roads only slightly damp at this point. really not looking bad. we have a touch of fog but not so much in fort washington so looking okay there. but we do have a new accident coming in in whitemarsh, township. flourtown road shut down between colonial and joshua drive because of downed pole downed wire with this accident scene. peco expected to keep it closed for much of the morning rush. stick to germantown pike instead of flourtown road in whitemarsh, township. we have this accident in towamencin that's still blocking all lanes. this happened hours ago orvilla road shut down a

let's go david and karen. >> i put up two. sorry.y, so storm tracker6 live double scan is going to show you you're dry this morning. that will not be the case later on this evening as we are looking at some rain moving in and it may start out as a little bit of snow and then of course be freezing rain before it changes over. this is all an issue in the northern suburbs so winter weather advisory kicks in at 6 o'clock this evening. doesn't end until 2:00 in the morning in points north through this region. i think northern bucks, northern montgomery county which are in included initially will probably fall off after about 10 o'clock but up in these areas straight past midnight there's the chance some of ice forming on roads as that precipitation comes in and remember, even if you see snow changing over to rain, that freezing rain is about the most dangerous sort of winter precipitation as it looks like it's just rain on your windshield but it's really freezing up on the roads and on the sidewalks beneath your feet and your tires. sunsh

david and karen tracking the snow showers right now. >> take a look as we've got a couple of snow showers down south near cape may county on storm tracker6 live double scan. they are fairly light and getting ready to go off the coast. some of them might be clipping atlantic city but there's that big batch that have now welled up to the west of philadelphia. they're heading toward the east and it's possible that that pops throughly during the morning rush hour. sometimes these have had a tendency to fall apart. that one is in the process of getting worse. still out in lancaster county but potentially on its way here. month are snow to the north and west of us. through the day most of what we see is going to be in the northern suburbs and as we warm up some of it will change over to rain later. 27 degrees currently in philadelphia, 25 in allentown, 29 in wilmington, 25 in trenton. cold neverwhere so grab the winter coats. winds not all that strong but i'm still feeling pretty good with gloves on out here and if i was on the bus stop for a

matt pelman is here and karen rogers, is it drizzling out there?no, it feels damp out here matt, the not currently drizzling very much. kind of misty i would describe it as. let's take a look right now at storm tracker6 live double scan and we can see that we're really for the most part dry. those showers have left the coastline but it feels damp out here a little mist and you could see a touch of drizzle at any point in the morning hours. satellite6 and action radar showing how the rain has left us. as you look to the west we're still seeing more clouds, a touch of drizzle here or there. so, it could feel rather damp through your morning hours but a northwesterly wind will help to dry us out later. fog is not an issue in philadelphia with 9-mile visibility but it is an issue in lancaster, .3 of a mile, dover, millville, atlantic city all less than a mile visibility so in some areas you got to be careful as you're headed out right now. how about the temperatures? 42, we are already above our normal high for this date. in the upper 30's in the lehig

let's head on over to dave murphy and to karen rogers.ood morning. >> i'm actually in the middle of my facebook live right now but i titled it something like this is the day you've been waiting for and absolutely true. you can see how the clouds are really receding and coming right up in our direction. the clearing line is moving in our direction away from that washington and baltimore and even locally some of these clouds are beginning to break up and i do think we're going to transition to mostly sunny skies very quickly this morning. 42 degrees, it's still cool enough for a coat. 39 degrees in trenton even more so there. 40 in allentown. 41 currently in reading. 44 in wilmington. 41 in millville and 41 in cape may and yeah there's a little bit of apre a breeze coming from the west. gusts are really starting to fall apart. we were only looking at a sustained of 9 miles per hour right now in philadelphia. milder today, sunnier than the just couple days and not as windy. 38 degrees still cold by 7 o'clock but by noon we'll add 10 to there

did you like that, karen?oastal flood warning is still in effect up until 11 o'clock this morning. the worst of it will be during high tide and that is beginning to taper off right about now along the ocean front. it will take a little longer up and down the delaware bay and notice how the top of the bay and the river included in this. still moderate tidal flooding possible as we go through the next couple of hours. up in the poconos we're still looking at some mixed precipitation today and i had a hunch they were going to extend this and they have up until 6 o'clock tonight. a winter weather advisory exists for the possibility of some sleet, maybe a little freezing rain occasionally mixing withhe's the wide view on cloud cover with satellite and the rain and most your rain is off to the north. some of this will probably wraparound through today. it won't be as wet as yesterday. there are some breaks in the clouds so we can't totally rule out a little bit of sunshine today. i think overall though still kind of

took effect sunday dave. >> all right karen.e big board we have a couple of snow showers out there again this morning. these are mostly down south, mostly getting off the coast pretty quickly. we'll keep our eyes on this one out by harrisburg and gettysburg but these have a tendency to fall apart this morning. if you see one slow it down because temperatures are below freezing. 27 degrees on the bus stop by 6 o'clock. 29 by 8:00 a.m. i'm listing a possible snow shower but honestly in most neighborhoods you don't see that right now and as we go through the afternoon we're going improve a bit. 28 degrees by 7 o'clock, maybe a flurry or snow shower here or there. 39 by noon. 42 by 3 o'clock. that's your high so that's not bad for this time of year maybe a degree above average. some sun is possible but as we go through the day particularly in the northern suburbs some additional snow showers are possible and maybe some rain showers a little farther south. 38 degrees by 5 o'clock. by the time all is said and done later this evening t

let's talk about that rain with david and karen.all right, we are looking at the rain moving in from the south and west. you can see it on satellite. right now there could be a little drizzle on your windshield from some low lying clouds but generally speaking the rain itself is on the other side of washington making a pretty good push in our direction, though, and we think before the ends of the rush hour we'll probably start to see at least some showers build in. 41 degrees currently in philadelphia. and even up in the cooler suburbs of allentown and reading, we're well above freezing so we are expecting this to be rain and not snow today. 42 degrees in wilmington, 40 currently in trenton, 44 millville, 46 degrees in cape may. we're still slightly below freezing in the poconos but even up in the mountains we'll see those numbers rise. as we take a look at the winds, 13 miles per hour winds coming down out of the northeas
