because of icy spots and on storm tracker6 we can see near quakertown it's just rain. it's dry in reading but in some spots north of that you are seeing the chance for a little bit of freezing rain as you can tell with that area of blue. we're worried about this spreading a little farther down to the south as the morning progresses. showers though are down in delaware and south jersey where you've got a wet start to the day right there and it's going to be dreary today. satellite6 and action radar slowing lots of clouds. this first batch of showers moving through but certainly more rain beyond that and we're going to continue to see periods of rain today. it's 34 in quakertown and pottstown. 39 in center city. it is mildly in philadelphia and south jersey. 36 in hammonton. 40 on the boardwalk and 39 in dover, delaware. here's a look at the day ahead. by 7:00 a.m., 39. by lunchtime, 42. lots of clouds. just enough showers in the morning to make it feel damp and kind of dreary. it looks like the heavier rain comes later in the afternoon and evening. at 3 o'clock, 45 and it's raining pretty good. at 5 o'clock, 44. at 7 o'clock, tapering off and

driving through in delaware and south jersey, picking up a little good shower in fortescue an area of yellow showing it's coming down a little moral right near route 47, sea isle city atlantic city mays landing hammonton along route 30 it's wet. let's take a look at the temperatures around the region and what we can expect and this freezing rain advisory is the concern for the lehigh valley until 10 o'clock this morning and the poconos until 7 o'clock this evening. the concern is for the icing and it may make it a little bit slick on the ground and whether you're getting snow, sleet or rain really depends on the depth of the warmer layers. we have a warm front moving through. it's warmer in the upper layers of the atmosphere. you have to go down to the surface or about 2,000 feet to get that cold air. that's why in some of the rural areas to the north and west in the elevated areas it's coming down as rain but adhering to some of the slick surfaces and that's the concern through the morning hours. let's take a look at satellite6 and action radar. we can see at first it's just some light showers that are moving through. the heavier rain is out to the

west with this warm front lifting through. here is the area of low pressure well out into the midwest. as this drags up to the north and east, it's going to pull in some milder air. we're seeing temperatures above average but we're getting periods of rain today. future tracker six showing us at 1:30 in the afternoon, this model picking up some heavier rain in the afternoon and evening so the first part of the day it's damp and dreary with some showers. and then at 1:30 it starts to pick up a little bit. we advance this to 4:30 as kids are coming home from school or as people are driving around in the evening for the evening commute, that's probably the heaviest of rain and you can see some adversary yellow showing it will be coming down pretty good at times and then later tonight the cold front drags through. 11 o'clock we're still getting a few showers here or there. let's show you the highs around the region today. wee we'll hit 45 in the city. but up in the higher elevations near the mountains, 39 in allentown, just 40 in reading, 46 will be the high in wilmington, 50 towards the south near dover along the coastline the upper 40's for your high today so temperatures well above the average high of 40.

tomorrow things change for us. association the front shifts off and the difference between the high and low pressures makes kind of a wind tunnel effect through the region and that's why we're going to see the winds gusting from the northwest 12 to 20 miles an hour. it's also going to help dry things out for you and feel a little better. here's a look at your exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast. today periods of rain, 45 degrees for your high. watching for the concern for some light icing north and west this morning. tomorrow may start off with some fog as warmer air moves through and then milder conditions, 52 for your high. we get that pacific air mass and you're going to feel the difference with that temperature jumping up there on thursday partly sunny skies also holding at 52. friday we're looking mild again but afternoon and evening rain as a weak disturbance moves in from the south, some rain in the evening hours, 51 for your high. could linger for early saturday morning. otherwise clouds and some sunshine and 51. sunday mostly cloudy skies, the temperature dips to 49. then another area of low pressure moves through the region on monday with periods of rain and a high of 52.

so staying mild through the seven day, buffer the average high of 40 but kind of damp and dreary. >> okay, thank you, karen in thanks. >> it is now 6:12 and new from the overnight officials in turkey release more information about an arrest in the nightclub rampage there on new year's day. >> later why a bruce springsteen cover band bowing out of a big gig. matt. >> things look good on the platt bridge. we're on 95 traffic is moving fine as well. we'll check traffic on the schuylkill and talk about an issue in conshohocken when "action news" continues on this tuesday morning. >> ♪ where things come from?

barometric pressure is falling winds are pretty light and the ocean temperature is 40. satellite6 and action radar slowing that we're starting to see just some light drizzle and showers move through the area now. the heavier rains out here to the west as we widen out you get a better view of that. here's the area of low pressure. that's that same big one that brought all the ice storms out to the plains. as this low drags up to the north and east it draws some milder air in our region. you'll see temperatures rise. we'll all see periods of rain through the day today. let's show you what it looks like on future tracker. the first half of the day is just enough to be damp a little dreary. once you hit about 1:30 this afternoon starts to pick up a little bit and some showers moving through. certainly more so about 4 o'clock people coming home from school and it will be rather wet on the roads. we advance this to their evening hours. even at 11:30 the last shower is coming through but the heaviest of it looks to be or the steadiest late afternoon early evening. so here's your hour by hour forecast. at 8:00 a.m. it's 39. lots of clouds. maybe a shower. by 10:00 a.m., 43.

still not a lot of rain. by lunchtime 42 and it's kind of at our doorstep by then. i think the heavier rain comes maybe 1 o'clock or so. by 3 o'clock it's raining pretty good at times, 45. and by 6 o'clock, 44 degrees. so, periods of rain on and off. tomorrow we dry things out a little bit. we get a northwesterly breeze. 12 to 20 miles an hour. so, that will dry you out. we're going to start off with clouds, though. 52 degrees for your high temperature so we're at least above average. let's take a look at your seven day starting with today. periods of rain, still the concern for some icing in the lehigh valley and the poconos, 45 for your high. tomorrow may start off a little foggy, clouds, may have an early shower but it looks that most of the day is dry. it's just milder and 52. lots of clouds linger, though. thursday partly sunny skies, 52. i think thursday's the best day of the week. you're dry. you get at least some sunshine mixing with the clouds. friday is mild but we get rain again in the afternoon and evening, 51 for your high. saturday may start off a little damp. then some sunshine mixed with the clouds, 51.

we're only 49 on sunday but that's still above average. mostly cloudy skies. normally you have a high of only 40 and we're not seeing any of that on this seven day. monday periods of rain once again and 52. so, temperatures are trending above average but chance for a few days of getting some rain here and there and the first day of that is hitting us now, tam. >> okay, thank you, karen. it is now 6:41 and the suspect in the pulse nightclub shooting is dead but the case is not closed. up next why authorities are now going after his wife. >> later a new beer sales law takes effect in pennsylvania. we'll tell you what it means for consumers today. matt. >> delays brewing along 422 nydia. eastbound side now slow as it so often is from oaks through this point on into route 23 and we have a pair of problems on 476. i'll tell you about them when "action news" continues on this tuesday morning. >> ♪

but southbound the vehicle involved otherwise is off to the side. so you're getting by, no big delay there on the southbound side of 476. we're seeing a little bit of slowing along 422 westbound through pottstown. making me think they may have started that construction early today. i have been telling you they'll be working 7::phil 2:00 through the westbound lanes. already slow so i think 33 may have set up a pattern a little bit earlier. skippack township crash along 113 bridge road at mensch road by swirls and nibble which i think is an ice cream place. kind of an interesting name. cressman road or collegeville road would be some alternates. in conshohocken still have the fire location along elm street. i think spring mill or washington would be better bets. on the big picture some slowing on the schuylkill with speeds in the 30's. same on 95, 20's and teens as you come southbound from cottman into girard. nydia. >> matt, thank you. the wife of the orlando nightclub shooter is due in federal court today to answer to charges related to the
