let's get first look at the forecast with meteorologist, katie fehlinger live on the cbs-3 skydeck, looks just about as happy as jim. >> oh, my gosh so comfortable outside guys. you have the very crisp fall like feel to the air. just again comfortable to be out here. i do wish i had my sunglasses ready, though, because it is very bright, very sunny, and that's going to be the story the rest of the day. i love the way you describe that there, puffy clouds, just floating out there. it is so, so nice. and we've got high pressure now settling in place. that will means that storm scan still working over time, not showing us very much. even though we did have cold front pass through, somewhat moisture starved left couple of raindrops behind in couple of spots. overall the bigger story is this. temperature change, since the same time yesterday you dropped anywhere from say seven to nine to upward of 15 plus degrees, so definitely cooler by comparison. and that says a l because we did over achieve yesterday. we ended up hitting 92 officially at philadelphia international airport. here's where we

i'm hoping these hits don't last too long on the skydeck, it is not a good hair day.e day progresses we top only upper 70s, virtually no sunlight to expect here today. again meisha casino every soggy for the better part of the day too. so rain gear required. we send it back into you. >> sure is. all right, katie, thank you so much. looking outside right now, you guys, actually looking all right. let's look, starting to heat up, 95 south before girard. what you are looking at here, you can see, actually holding steady right like this. but it is only 5:30 in the morning, we know it will really heat up. good indicator that you might want to give yourself couple every extra minutes, especially leading more into the 60:00 hour. accident roosevelt boulevard southbound outer drive at woodward street. make note of this. can certainly slow you down. schuylkill cleared. but the backups behind it were pretty substantial for being early -- early in the morning. explosion in jersey guys, take a look particulars amtrak northeast corridor is modified right now. this is near elizabet

meteorologist, katie fehlinger, tells us how long this brief lake will last, live on the cbs-3 skydeck, hi, kate. >> i good afternoon, jim, looks as though at least going to get through the rest of today and into tonight, not to mention most of tomorrow before the next round of rain hits us. that leaves essentially 24-hour window for you before the next round every rain comes. now, again, we could use that rain. but, yes, at this point it looks like it is somewhat of an unsettled forecast, trying to plan outdoor plans around this. so let me walk you through. start it off by taking quick glance at storm scan3, important to note, there are still some showers, we thought this might happen down near the southeast most communities here in the delaware valley. so specific to the shore, we throat the satelite composite over top of there is notice, tail of two forecasts, down the shore you've got steadier rain still pushing through coming through in pockets, cloudy conditions through the better part of southeast new jersey and delaware, but then here on the skydeck, and certainly further inlan

of rain lately, uv index is high, heat index low, again, i'm wearing dark color, just out on the skydeck, feels really comfortable outside. do you need some sunglasses though because it is bright. now here is the darker shot that i had promised you, the high tide actually starting to recede right now outside beach patrol headquarters in margate. here's what i like to see, everybody either at the shore line or just past it, and sitting on the sand. i really would just advise against going out in the waves here at all, today, tomorrow, too. but then it is bright, and just completely clear blue skies for you overall outside whitfield elementary school in westmont, pa. depend where you are, what kind of cloud cover you'll get more sun than anything. eighty-six here at philadelphia international airport and the rest of the day, probably another degree tacked on to the daytime high. but the breeze helping to make this feel so verb g -- remembering g, out of the north, really means dry air in place. tonight still pretty mild. still dry. and then here we go. heating it up 93 apiece both thursday

first look at the forecast with meteorologist, katie fehlinger live on the cbs-3 skydeck, good afternoon, kate. >> i and good afternoon to you, as well. we do have sunshine through some of the clouds out here, definitely heating up. i can tell it feels a little muggier than even this morning felt. so, that is a change that's going to be more and more palpable. ease advice advice take effect tomorrowment that's where we turn our focus at least to start off to gave you a idea here, specific to the metro area really. i95, the immediate vicinity here, starts noon tomorrow, so as we're going on the air with you on "eyewitness news" at noon tomorrow, that's when this takes effect. and, again, it will last only until 6:00 p.m. now that the solar angle isn't quite as strong it, won't necessarily have to last much later than that, but, regardless, facing a warming trend here, that's going to take us into the 90's for the next couple of days, also, heat index values could soar, too, or even just above 90 degrees. more on that later in the show. for now, storm scan generally quiet. you can still se

. >> you know, i was out on the skydeck, deceiving, clouds around, but when you step outside you can feel the humidity around. >> okay. >> hanging on few more days, but there are some signs of fall coming up in the forecast, so little something for everybody in our seven day forecast, until then, still locked into this warm weather pattern, and it will be dry again, so we had the rain yesterday, but now moving back into several day stretch, with some sunshine. but let's take you to the shore right now, little more cloudy. clouds will hold tough all day long here, and you may get few light rain showers, looking live here, the boardwalk of ocean city, and rehoboth beach, delaware, also seeing some rain right now, it is possible to get couple of showers, across extreme southern new jersey and delaware through the afternoon into the evening hours. and here's storm scan3, so we don't have anything heavy as far as the rainfall goes. lingering showers, right along the coastline, for cape may county, down to sussex county, delaware, then the further north and west you go, thinning the clouds

. >> let's get first look at the forecast with meteorologist, katie fehlinger live on the cbs-3 skydeck, hey,. >> just the remaining issue we have to deal with. the problem is it won't be going away necessarily super quickly because this is a storm that is essentially stuck. it doesn't have anything to push it away, not making its very own movement, nothing much more than 3-mile per hour movement right now. so 3 miles per hour, you could easily run that far in far west than an hour. so, keeping that in mind, it is a very, very sluggish system, as gee on out to the map here storm scan3, cloud cover granted being thrown back inland, might see shower at the shore, but generally precipitation way out to sea so starting things off on dry note on land anyway but still coastal flood alert we have to tell you about. it was a warning, now coastal flood advisory, but still for all of the exact same areas. so every delaware beach, every bay area, every coastline or shore point at the jersey shore, also, affected by this. so couple of more high tide cycles need to come in before we can say okay we'

meteorologist, justin drabick; live on the cbs-3 skydeck, enjoying the final hours of the summer season. justin, take me with you. >> i know. i feel you. wait until daylight savingment man, really goes downhill. you know, still late september. we will get warm days, so we won't go jumping right into fall. but we will get a taste of fall certainly in the next couple of days, but outside right now back to some sunshine, slow start this morning in the clouds, things heating up, check it out, temperatures upper seven's to low 80s, could be worse, record highs 90s, not setting robbed, humidity dropping hour by hour here. so not that bad outside. yes, still warm in the sunshine, already lower 80s around philadelphia, wilmington suburbs, warming up nicely, and the farther north and west more sunshine you will see. still have stubborn storm to the south. so areas of south jersey, delaware, you guys will be stuck in the clouds. temperatures kind of just holding out in the upper 70s this afternoon. north to northeast wind right now at about ten to 15 miles per hour, that's driving the humidity li

meteorologist, katie fehlinger, live outside on the cbs-3 skydeck, with a closer look at the temperatures. hey, katy? >> guys, that's it. wondering okay, fall is officially here, it is meteorological fall, it is astronomical fall now. and where are these cool temperatures that we've been hoping for? maybe you haven't been hoping for them, but expecting them at least. not here just yet but on the way. you mentioned it, autumnal equinox has since taken effect. showing you more of the details, happened 10:21 on the knows this morning, and now again it is made official, fall is here. we are seeing temperatures still well above average already into the 80s up and down i-95, mid or even upper 70s across many of the outlying suburbs, wildwood flight g with 80. so mild beginning to the afternoon, and since just getting the afternoon started we expect nothing but sunshine the rest of the day. have no problem, reaking out a well above average daytime high here. 86 degrees, might as well be july. the average high is 76 on this day of the year. obviously very far away from the record, last set way ba

we can actually hear the music, from our skydeck before it is all over the two day concert series willhowcase more than 60 artists, tonight's headline is her pop superstar rihanna, tomorrow night's big act is cold play, this is the fifth year the event has been held right here in the city of brotherly love. >> new jersey and delaware beaches are already starting to feel the effect of hermine, lauren has the latest for us. >> yes, hermine likely to strengthen make a turn to the northwest, closer to our coastline, and i'll talk about what to expect in a time frame of concern for the coast, and your full forecast coming up. >> also, as we deal with hermine, earthquake rattles other part of the country. see where the grounds shook, how much damage was actually done. plus, donald trump continues his outreach to african-american voters. the republican nominee's message to the black community today. that's all coming up. stay with us. he's making it up. of course, anyone who commits a violent crime needs to be prosecuted -- and put behind bars. narrator: katie mcginty will keep us safe -- mor

let's get first look at the forecast with meteorologist, katie fehlinger, liver on the cbs-3 skydeck, hey, katy? >> we will approach several, for sure, jim, right now heat advisory, just took effect across the delaware valley, and we start things offer just by getting you right on out to the maps. we'll show you where the heat advisories are posted now, they last until 6:00 tonight. all of delaware included even spilling over into maryland, then of course including the city of philadelphia where it is awfully toasty outside right now. here is what it actually feels like, more like triple digits anywhere from dover back in toward the chesapeake, then even out to lancaster feels like 101 right now in philadelphia at the philadelphia international airport, feeling like it is into the 90s, actual air temperature technically into the upper 80s as we speak. in most locations. storm scan, hey, at least that's quiet. won't necessarily stay that way. more on that later in the broadcast. but for now expect the high to hit 94 in philadelphia, that's at least flirting with record territory though

meteorologist, katie fehlinger, live on the cbs-3 skydeck with a look at what we can expect. katy? >> looks like we are in fact going to see pretty typical weather when it comes to temperatures certainly in the next couple of days, few ups ands downs in terms of what we will finds overhead, for now, little bit after breeze, feels very comfortable outside, and we do have some sunshine, but those clouds as anticipated, beginning to roll in as well. those clouds are a sign of the next system crossing through. so we start it off by looking out at storm scan3 very quickly, notice that within this last three hour loop, the clouds again start to nudge in, from maryland, and central pennsylvania, so even though dow think you will stay dry, right through the rest of the afternoon, and even through the majority, in fact, the entirety, i would say, of the p.m. drive, we'll start to see rain eventually firing up on the radar. probably going to take until late evening as earliest before that happens. for now, we're in the lou 70s up and down i-95. similar scenario through the southern new jerse

meteorologist, katie fehlinger live in the cbs-3 skydeck where she is tracking the 90's again, katy? >> yes, again, thankfully just for very brief return to the 90s here today, jim, before we do see return to more fall-like conditions. so, it is quick, it is out of here, and then we're back to more comfort level. i have to tell you though it feels pretty good outside. even though you will start to notice tad muggier as the day goes on, overall, not oppressive at all. it is just a raise in the dew point you may start to notice. obviously got bright full sunshine here. we take you out to the computer graphics, show you on storm scan, not heck of a lot to see. currently temperatures in the 80s, depending where you are, still in the 70s, mount pocono, portions of the jersey shore line, in pace to climb easily here. already at 87 degrees in palmyra. right around the northeast philly area. now as the day progresses again talking about a daytime high of 90 degrees. that's going to flirt at least with the record high of 92, that lasted back in 1995. but there is a cold front that's on the wa

justin, on the skydeck, what's it feeling like? pleasant when i left this morning. >> i had on a coat. >> awed coat on, wow, okay. i would say it is warm out. but i'm a guy that doesn't wear a coat even in the wintertime. >> thank you, thank you, justin. >> you know, i think it is still muggy outside. feels little like summer. it will be like that really for the next several days. talk about warm temperatures, at least it is dry, not dealing with the heavy rainfall like we had yesterday. of course welcome rain. exception is maybe the shore, sees a shower later this morning into the afternoon, but storm scan3 looking whole lot quieter, still clouds over us, i'm seeing the moon here in center city so the clouds breaking up little bit. watch out for few areas of fog. specially north and west of the city right now. and that's going to be the trends really through the morning, and then things will improve by late morning, into the afternoon. 60s to about 70 degrees right now for the air temperatures currently. zoom into some suburbs, fi

lyle breeze on the cbs-3 skydeck, clear sky, and we are generally expecting some sunshine and little bit of warmer day to un fowl here. but, can you believe it? we're still talking about hermine. still. let's take you outside. at the moment thankfully don't have any wet weather to report here on the land areas. but out to sea that system still churning close enough, that it is bringing in some outer rain bands here, across at least some of the off shore areas from the jersey shore, the delaware beaches. could you see shower at the shore today, from this, but, overall, i expect some sunshine more than anything. but, that system is still going to be turning up the surf, keeping the dangerous rip countries being in place, even though any coastal flooding at this point is thankfully no longer an issue. looking to this area of temperatures, pretty stiff breeze atlantic city, northwest wind flow, 06-mile per hour, seeing the win out of the north northwest at 14 miles per hour. so you notice it, but it feels refreshing when talking temperatures in the 70s right now, little cooler up in moun

meteorologist, lauren casey joins us on the skydeck with a first look at the forecast. >> yes, feeling pretty toasty out here right now, we were stuck under some dense high level cloud cover earlier in the afternoon, sun breaking out little bit more, heating things up, but those high clouds that you're seeing are compliment of hermine, still sitting off shore right now, topical storm warnings remain in effect until further notice for coastal waters along the jersey, delaware shore lines, dealing with rough surf and dangerous rip currents, also moisture moving in, those clouds continuing to move across the delaware valley, especially east of the i95 corridor, showers, just off shore, all in association with hermine, that's bringing some shower activity, to new england, right now. and as far as the latest forecast track, hermine is still a very powerful pros tropical system winds near hurricane strength, 70 miles per hour it, will continue to jaunt to the northwest, we head into the next several days making pass very close to long island. and southeastern new england, as we head into thu

. >> let's toss it over to katie live on the skydeck with the latest on tropical storm now hermine, and means for people going to the jersey shore this weekend. >> yes, you know it, looks as though it will have an impact no matter what the categorization is of this storm. it is now downgraded to trump tropical storm from hurricane status overnight. it is already moved on shore, that's part of the reason it has been downgraded. it has lost some of the energy source over the gulf of mexico. regardless, it is beautiful to start the day off right now. clearly, that system is now headed our way. now, we do have tropical storm watch posted, through the weekends, for all of the delaware beaches and sussex county as well as jersey shore line as it pertains to our area. so we are expect to go see the impact primarily at the coast from this. let's lock at the forecast, models right now, what you are going to notice, put this into motion, is that things stay pretty consistent, up until you pass about north carolina then look at what happens. you have got anything from back toward state college, to

that's one big weather feature that i really notice currently on the skydeck.e humidity. very, very steamy out here. even despite the lack of any rain right now. but, that will all be changing, and as this frontal passage makes very sluggish path, it will end up bringing us again rounds of some soaking rain, so dew points nice and hi, but temperatures pretty mild. basically at 100% saturation at 76 degrees, with dew points very close to that, basically talking very, very moisture laden air mass, and that means it will rain steadily and heavily at times throughout the day. now, temperatures really don't rebounds all that much. flirt with 80 the best we can hope for. regardless rain off and on any time today. i hail will you suggest the umbrella on day like this. but at the same time, we will see the pros and cons for this, too. the pro is we desperately need the rain. pretty decent deficit since january 1. we will take what we can get. also promise very nice days down the road beyond think point, meisha? >> thank you so many for that, looking outside right now,

owe in across specially new jersey, delaware, pretty clear here, where i am standing on the cbs-3 skydeckthe heavy rain from what's now left of hermine, post tropical cyclone, still out there. so, could we see stray shower here and there? yes, it is possible. but i say generally next couple every days are dry. but the next couple of days you're still going to find some very significant wife heights. so currently, they are impressive. we do have a tropical storm warning, still posted for the coastal waters of new jersey and delaware here, guys, look at the wave heights. anywhere from nine to ten to 12 to 13 feet. don't go in the water, that's my best advice. here is a look at the tropical storm warning, again, posted up and down, at least, the ocean coastline here, back into the bay areas, up and down all of the other shore point, as well, do still have coastal flood warning, next high tide psych toll come in comes in between ten this morning and noontime. so that's about the next time that we will see the best chance for any kind of minor to moderate coastal flooding out of that, best adv

meteorologist, justin dray bake is out on the "cw" three skydeck with eyewitness weather, already 08d earl. >> i yes, it is early, and certainly the humidity still on the high side. that will change this afternoon, been talking about it all weekend long, welcome relief from some of the heat and humidity coming off high yesterday of 95 degrees still talk about above average temperature, now starting to see more temperatures. starting to push into the region, low 60s now knowledge pocono, through the poconos, still, just to the west. so warm, muggy ahead of the front, temperature right now at 80 degrees at the airport, feeling like the mid 80s with the humidity, but the wind starting to switch more west and northwest to the north west suburbs. berks county lie high valley, look at the dew points, it tells the story. see the drop into the low 60s in reading for the dew point temperature meaning the dryer air mass is moving on in. still very humid from the city on south and east. give it few more hours. maybe stray shower in the poconos, half or so, quickly moving out, see increasing sun

let's get right out to justin day brick on the skydeck. day, some good news for eagles game? >> get better for game time. not feeling like football, temperatures surging back into the mid 80s, on average, but the humidity drops hour by hour, becomes more comfortable this afternoon for the game. it will stay dry across the region. some clouds around right now. colds front is passing through, bringing the change, but ahead of the front very warm this hour. check it out, hovering around 80 degrees, in a lot of locations, humidity levels still up. nice breeze here to help bring some cooling effect here. temperatures 77 degrees in pottstown. there is the winds still out of the southwest from philadelphia, on south and east. that's allowing the humidity around, but starting to seat wind change in lancaster, reading, allentown more west to northwest, indicating the cold front starting to move on in. that northwest breeze, bridges in the drier air mass, so the humidity gets out of here. couple of showers possible, very early this morning, in the p

let's turn it over to justin drabick, out on the cbs-3 skydeck, with eyewitness werth.tin, may need to dust off the sunglasses, it will be sunny and hot weekends. >> it is, feeling more like the heart of sumner july right now. not looking like it, here it is, later and later in the season, and it is staying little darker. the sun not up yet. still have few minutes to go yet for sunrise, but once the sun is up, rapid warm up once again, talking high temperatures surging into the 90s, close to record territory once again after setting new record high yesterday. but the heat advisory stays in effect until 7:00 tonight through most of the region, the exception right along the immediate coastline, high heat and humidity, all across the delaware valley. there you go. low and mid 90s this afternoon, heat indexes possibly as high as 103. specially around philadelphia. so spending extra time outside, still got to take it easy, and drink plenty of water, keep the pets hydrated as well. look at the temperatures right now, not really much change no matter where you are. mid 70s in

justin drabick out on the skydeck with eyewitness weather. certainly can't tell right now, but you say a mean storm headed our way. >> yep, and specially the shore later tonight, when we will see the worse effect, heavy rainfall, strong winds, certainly potential for some moderate maybe even major coastal flooding because the storm will slow down and continue to pound the coast, with the with us -- gusty winds. very quiet in center city. may not see a lot of effect from the system as far as west as philadelphia, but there is the center of the storm around hatteras, rain trying to get up to southern delaware, near ocean city maryland right now, fenwick islands, but having tough time running into a lot of dry air. that's what we have to watch. how far north and west can the edge of the rain get tonight but it looks like we will start to see rain moving into parts of extreme southern new jersey, especially later on this afternoon. at the 5:00, winds still at 06 miles per hour, so this is strong tropical storm, it has all of its tropical characte

meteorologist, justin drabick, out on the cbs-3 skydeck with eyewitness weather.ustin, we all pay attention to your forecast every weekends, this weekend people have holiday plans, so maybe watching little more closely. >> just bad timing here. but if you are in the sit and areas north and west, you won't see whole lot of impact from the storm system that is does eventually pass off the coast. but it is going to kick up the winds, especially on the coastline, and jersey shore, delaware beaches, seriously, see some erupt coastal flooding starting later tonight with the persistent winds. and some high surf. so a lot of beach errosion, and potential for some heavy rain. clouds around this morning, so not bad start to the saturday morning. even in south jersey. you can see we're dry. hermine still over the outer banks right now. rain having tough time pushing forward, northward, as it is running into a lot of dry air. but it is raining, and extreme southern delaware this hour. but still few more hours to go, afternoon, start to see some rain moving into the shore poin
