yeah katie, i knew it, praying for you, hubby and babies. is there two nuggets on the way at the end of september. thank you for that. appreciate that. lets go out to storm scan. it is brewing out to the south. the it is a rain producer at this point. but that will be changing, as this starts to move into some colder air. we will start to see pinks, purple begin to show up. thinks a full day away. by about this time tomorrow we are starting to see the beginnings of the moisture moving in. because we will start off at this time in the morning it is still cold enough to produce snow. this is our latest expectation in terms of the snowfall. it start off on i-95 with the slushy one to three or 3 inches before turning to a wet, chilly rain later on in the day but primarily snow further north we will go. we have two to 4 inches, locally up to six but this will mainly fall on grass surfaces. thankfully that is one and only big storm we are tracking. we will look forward in the forecast granted still cool but quiet and most of the seven day is bring

what do you think katy? >> overall looking pretty good. at least things dried out for us did have to deal with pretty nasty wind, as well as quite a few clouds, that really didn't want to let up and give away too much sunshine here. but i think you'll see little bit of brighter skate out there today, still clouds around overall not bad day whatsoeverment as we take you out live, nice clear sky right now, there are handful of clouds out there which i am going to show to you here, but we start things off with another look at storm scan3 just the radar being viewed here. and the tri-state sweep being made by all of the different area radars, not picking up on anything. but i want to throw the satelite over top. we just showed you ac, crystal clear, but there are some clouds that are starting to nudge in, so that's actually going to help us limit our overnight cooling, which is some good news. meanwhile, as we take you out to another field camera, another shore point, or beach area out at the boardwalk plaza, very, very tranquil start to the m

. >> watch the roadways, katie out there with the freezing temperatures, good morning. >> absolutely. we look out here on storm scan3, what you find is nothing going on, which, you know really good news. mean we're in for quiet weather, as the day goes on, as the next couple of days go on. >> under nice clear skies, temperatures had chance to drop off more readily. here's where we stand right now. at 13 degrees at philadelphia international airport. we would need to lose three more degrees to tie the record low. so we'll see how we do. still some time before the sun comes up. 5 degrees, that's new record in allentown, braking the previous one set in 1960, at seven. at 11 degrees in will mink, did dip to ten briefly in wilmington, so do actually have tide record, there as well. still a chill, oh, ya. i mean, the high hit 26 degrees, do the math. very much below average even though we always talk about march having all of these extremes with t meanwhile as we go into the weekend, there is some easing up that takes place here. we ends up with sunshine both tomorrow as well as sunday, the
