at a slightly rainy accuweather forecast and matt pelman has your traffic. good morning. >> it's a dreary day today. we'll have periods of rain all day but the morning concern is for freezing rain. the national weather service has this freezing rain advisory listed for lehigh berks northampton counties and that's until 10 o'clock in the morning but up in the poconos it doesn't expire until 7 o'clock tonight. and that's because of icy spots in the area. satellite6 and action radar showing at this point we just have some light showers moving in. the heavier rain is going to come in later today. but let's go right to double scan because we can see you have to go northwest of reading at this pointer to see any of the icing. that's the area of plow that wblue thatwe get. but the concern is as temperatures drop in the lehigh valley and as we can see these showers move in, we may see more icing spots a bit widespread so watching for there up in the lehigh valley and the poconos. but we can see we have some showers down in south jersey right now. those roads are going to be a little bit more wet in millville n-salem and temperatures well above

freezing so it is going to be just wet everywhere else except for the lehigh valley and the poconos. forty four pottstown. we expect these temperatures to dip just a little bit more and that's why we could see some freezing rain there but it was 39 in the city, it's 36 in hammonton, 38 in dover, delaware. milder air moving in but it's a dreary day with periods of rain. the heaviest looks to be in the afternoon and evening. the high today of 45 degrees. i'll show you when this rain really hits us in future tracker6 with that seven-day forecast in just a couple minutes, matt. >> we're wary of that precipitation far to the north and west this morning, karen, but for now it's dry as a bone here in center city along the vine street expressway. and there was no overnight construction closure so you're good to go as you cross town on the vine. headed tout 95 there was overnight construction here close to the betsy ross bridge in both directions but the crews have cleared out so all lanes are opened and ready for you along 95. no big issues so far along the roosevelt boulevard, schuylkill expressway or i476, the blue route but on 476 the northeast extension a car ran

out of gas on the northbound side about 2 miles approaching the lansdale interchange so he's in the right lane coming northbound of mid-county watch out for that dv in the right lane on the northeast extension. on the east west turnpike westbound in bucks county there's still some construction taking out the left lane between delaware valley and bensalem as you come in from new jersey. also had extra overnight work in delaware along 95 and some of the ramps that connect it with 141 but those crews cleared out. ing over is opened for you in the first state and ready along 95, 495, 295 and route one and we're back to normal schedules today across-the-board on mass transit. had some abnormalities yesterday because of the mlk holiday but so far this morning back to normal and on time on this tuesday. tam and nydia. >> all right, thank you, matt. breaking this morning a fight between a manager and a guard had been simmering for awhile at a germantown bar. overnight it erupted with

deadly results. katherine scott is lie at police headquarters with more on the investigation. good morning, katherine. >> reporter: good morning, tam, that's right, police say that fight between the bar manager and the security guard had been simmering and last night it just spilled over. now the bar manager is dead and the security guard is here at police headquarters being interviewed by homicide detectives. let's go to video from last night in germantown. it happened at sharon's little spot on the 5600 block of boyer street. this happened just before 11:00 p.m. in a back room of the bar. the room is for employees. there are no security cameras in there. both men were working at the time. the 44-year-old bar manager and the 28-year-old armed uniformed security guard. police say a verbal altercation escalated and then turned physical. the guard told police the bar manager came at him with a bottle and hit him on the head. then the guard opened fire he says shooting the bar manager three times. police say he was shot twice in his torso, once in the leg. he was conscious and talking

when police and medics arrived but the bar manager was pronounced dead at the hospital at 11:22 p.m. >> we're not certain at this time what the argument and the altercation was about but that 28-year-old security guard is in police custody. >> reporter: and that's that security guard did remain on the scene until police arrived and then again, he was taken here to police headquarters to be interviewed. also taken here to be interviewed was a customer and a bartender who were at the bar at the time. we're live at police headquarters, katherine scott, channel6 "action news." >> all right, katherine thank you for that. also developing police are investigating a shooting outside a bar and restaurant in southwest philadelphia. the action cam was outside the blue nile falls on the 700 block of south 52nd street. investigators say a 33-year-old man was hit and wounded a couple of times late last night. he is in stable condition this morning. >> three philadelphia congressmen are joining the long list of democrats boycotting the inauguration of

down the shore and it's a wet one out there right now. it will continue to be wet on and off through the day. 39 degrees the current temperature. the dewpoint is 30t pressure is falling. the winds are calm and the ocean temperature is 40. we do have the concern for freezing rain in the lehigh valley and the poconos until about 10 o'clock this morning in the lehigh valley but all day through the evening hours until 7 o'clock tonight for the poconos. we're not expecting a lot of that but the concern is that we've got the freezing temperatures just near the surface. warmer air up to about 2000, 3,000 feet and that's why we have the concern that once the rain comes down it's going to stick to the frozen surfaces and create kind of an icy glaze out there. not going to happen in philadelphia or south jersey 'cause those temperatures already above freezing. satellite6 and action radar showing some light showers moving in but the heavier rain is just at our doorstep out to the west and that's going work its way through the region and periods of rain today and i want to show you what future tracker6 looks like. this model showing at 6 o'clock in the morning, the area of blue, some freezing

rain in the lehigh valley. we advance this until 1:30 in the afternoon. looks like that's when we start to get some more significant rain, just might be a little damp through the morning hours but in the afternoon hours it starts to pick up. look what happens at 4 o'clock when some of the kids are coming home from school, some people commuting through the afternoon and evening. that's when it looks like the heaviest slug of rain really moves through so periods of rain through the day, even at 10 o'clock tonight looks like we'll get our last batch of rain. here's wait looks like hour by hour. at 8:00 a.m., it's 39 but it should be sitting right around the freezing mark in the lehigh valley. at 10 o'clock, 43. just a little damp. it's later in the afternoon, i'd say after 12 o'clock when you get that heaviest rain moving through so it's really raining pretty good at 3 o'clock, 45 degrees. and some showers around still at 6 o'clock, 44. kind of a dreary day today. tomorrow we dry things out a little bit. it gets windy. northwest wind around that area high pressure gusting 12 to 20 miles an hour. but it's a drier wind as well. not a lot of sunshine, though. it looks kind of damp and dreary over much of the seven

day so periods of rain today, 45. looks like the heaviest will be late afternoon and evening. tomorrow fog in the morning possible, maybe a little damp early on. then it's dry the rest of the day, milder, 52. thursday partly sunny skies and 52. friday it looks like we're fine during the morning hours but in the afternoon and evening we get rain developing 51 for your high. saturday could start off with a shower but then you see some sunshine and 51. sunday mostly cloudy still and 49. monday periods of rain again and 52. so, it's kind of a trade-off. we have mild temperatures but it's a little damp and dreary through much of the seven-day. >> i'll take it. >> thanks, karen. >> thank you, karen. it is now 5:11. we're following new details this morning in the arrest of a suspect wanted for that new year's eve massacre is a nightclub in turkey. >> also new a-grandfather stops a woman trying to kidnap his granddaughter. matt. >> pretty quiet so far this morning nydia here in northern liberties along delaware avenue at frankford avenue right by the sugar house
