heavy rain there and we have lightening around wilmington, delaware and very heavy rain around middletown, delaware, in new castle county. moving over to new jersey it is ran but lighter around ocean city, new jersey, down in delaware, that last batch of rain, at lee for new has moved off shore but there is, more on the way and we are under a slight risk, according to the storm prediction center , of severe thunderstorms, later on this afternoon. after we get daytime heating. it will warm up, not as warm as yesterday but it will warm up. couple disturbance is a head of the cold front. once that cold front comes through it will lower humidity for a couple days and that is just, in time for the weekend. so, many are grateful about that. so rain moving through this morning, couple pop up thunderstorms are possible as we just saw on radar, maybe a midday break and more rain moving in, late evening, and into the overnight hours so if you have plans outdoors tonight and lots of people do in the middle of july, just be aware, eye in the sky, thunderstorms, rain free though for the rest of the weekend. tem

starting to see rain, show up in our observations right now, jason checks with a light rain in middletown, delawarehere it is mild 72 degrees. very good advice, make sure umbrella ace handy. seventy from delores. she too reporting very light rain. she came from from a mini vacation in the rain where it was in the 90's. very, very warm. so in the meantime, fran's out in nottingham where on the radar it looks like something is hitting the ground. it is not hitting the gun some times radar can play tricks on you. you just have cloud there. chester county it looks like it is raining. and cloud squeeze out some moisture and some could be, and, heavy rain, and, it is working its way toward beltway area of d.c. and this will work its way toward us over the course of the day. we're talking generally scattered, off and on round of showers, embedded thunderstorms and some rain heavier at times. just pack your umbrella in your work bag, cart it with you rest of the day and have it on stand by. you won't to have deal witt all day long but you don't want to get stuck underneath one of those pockets. right throu
