wider zoom starts to show signs of life through western pennsylvania. that is our next cold front starting to get it act together and then somewhat slow to move. we have the entire morning at least until we start to see any activity on the radar firing up here at home. meanwhile lets talk about that rip current risk one more time. berta is not making any direct impact to our shoreline but rather a northeast turn, it could clip new foundland and canada but that is it as far as north america is concern, but the ocean swells obviously radiates out away from the storm itself because of the wind, that is associated with the storm. that kicks up our surf and can lead to higher risk of rip currents as well. this goes for everybody. further in you go less the risk but i don't want to minimize this at the beaches right on the ocean, open water, where we will have the worst but don't under estimate it if you are maybe taking a dip in the bay. 73 degrees the current temperature at philly international. sixty-nine in wilmington. sixty-eight in trenton. nice mild st

couple clouds but eventually there will be showers that will dodge and you can see that back to western pennsylvania. it is just a matter of time, but it doesn't look like any severe storms here. it will be run of the mill summertime storms. here's berta looking at the loop, pulling away to the north east but in its wake it leaves behind those stronger swells, stronger surf, higher rip current risk. wave heights where you actually see peak of them are out where that little circle is, yellow interior and we have green surrounding it. that is core where the storm is but outside of it those swells radiate away and it means we have got rest of it. these are readings from our off shore buoys from boston all the way down. but meanwhile, watch it out there, make sure if you take a dip today you are cautious bit at the shoreline and bay areas it could be dicey. be careful and smart. further inland we can expect daytime high to hit 86 degrees. a few scattered showers and storms coming up. then we will clear out later on tonight, bob, over to you. >>> 5:05. a combination of overnight construction, disabled ve
