In fact, today is our most active day of the entire week when it comes to the precipitation factor, and on top of that, i mentioned earlier in the show, Severe Weather threat. We want to talk about that, cover the bases. We start it off with just a snapshot of storm scan3. Very heavy rain already coming down here, through berks, lancaster counties, mainly, it is yet to arrive her in philadelphia, but i was on the skydeck, and i can verify there are some raindrops already falling. It is just matter of time before they become heavier, more widespread, and certainly throughout the course of the morning, it will impact your travel. Meanwhile, little bit of wide over zoom, may be little lull here. We think it is somewhat of an off and on throughout the day kind after scenario here. So if it isnt raining at any given point walking out the door, then probably just going to be able to count yourself lever i. Everybody gets hit at some point, everybody will be dealing with heavy rain. One thing that helps, of course, the pollen it, washes it all away. Ragweed, nettle, grasses still a concern, but those levels dont have to spike again until High Pressure regains control. That doesnt take place until the second half of tomorrow. Lets talk about the Severe Weather threat. The zone included of our area, basically the western half of the delaware valley, and our whole sort of mixed bag, i call these the big three, winds, hail, maybe even a tornado, it is all a concern, it is obviously not a guarantee, but the atmosphere may be ripe for any of these things to happen specially the wind issue with gust that is could easily peak past 25 miles per hour. Now, we look forward to the forecast by tomorrow, more sunshine, as the day progresses, allows us to warm up little bit herement back to the low 80s thursday, friday, despite it being a smidge cooler, those will be the nicest days of the next four.

And maybe a big speed bump along the way, of course, those Manhole Covers will be exposed now, theyll be back later tonight to repave the next stretch. But, all of that is weather dependent, again, that project rolls from ninth street all the way up to that bucks county line. So, over the next couple every months, we have to deal with.
