Back to the fox 29 Weather Authority now. Meteorologist kathy orr tracking what looks to be kathy the start of a pattern. Oh, yeah. Its a cold pattern, iain. We have successive cold fronts moving through and the core of that cold air is in the Northern Plains and in canada only bog to take it 24 to 48 hours to get into the Delaware Valley. Right now in philadelphia, were at 45 degrees. Through the midwest we have some 20s in chicago. Some 30s in detroit and also cincinnati but take it to the west. International falls the temperature 22. Prince albert only three. Calgary 4 degrees below zero. So this is the cold that is going to be shifting eastward and heading tour the northeast in the mid land. One front moving through right now. We get a bit gusty wind felt friday into friday night and even into the day on saturday. So were talking about the coldest air since last february. When we look at the wind chills combine the cold temperatures and blustery winds for friday morning it had feel like its in the teens for most of the Delaware Valley from philadelphia north and west. South and east it will feel like its in the 20s. But that cold takes that warmth right away from your skin and makes you feel even colder. So the wind will be a big weather factor this weekend. Saturday morning wind chills the same thing. Mainly in the teens along that i95 Corridor North and west. Into the south and east it will feel like its in the 20s. When were talking about the Cold Saturday morning, the High Temperature will be i should say the low temperature will be in the 20s. The High Temperature 38. The last time it was this cold was february 18th. You have to go back 10 months to see that cold. When you have the cold, off little moisture theres potential for snow and scott has been looking at the probability of that. What do you think, scott . Kathy, with that cold air kind of diving southward from canada, we will tap into some western moisture over the next several days. Especially the second half of the weekend into monday. Lets talk a little bit about those temperatures for the weekend. Who are pressed to really make it out of the 30s. Wind chills for much of the day on saturday and sunday stuck in the 20s. So grab those heavier jackets and coats. Take look at future snowfall as we start the clock tonight continue into tomorrow, friday, the first part of the weekend, most of the snow off to the great lakes also as you move toward parts of pocono how tense cold air that moisture great for making snow. But watch the clock as we move toward sunday in particular as we move toward sunday night into monday. We see some of the precipitation in the form of some snow, some sleet, across parts of the Delaware Valley. Some of that could move toward philadelphia but primarily were talking allentown also into the pocono mountains. See heres the timing sunday night. Were talking about blustery and cold conditions. By 10 00 p. M. Maybe a late sprinkle or a flurry. And then overnight sun day into monday, some rain or some wet snow for philadelphia. Farther north and west by 5 00 p. M. Its cloudy and cold in the lehigh valley. Rain or wet snow by 10 00 oclock and then take a look at sunday night into monday morning. Snow showers and a possible coating. So well continue to watch the track, the timing and those temperatures and also kathy, the amount of moisture available. Its going to be very key. The 3ts thanks so much, scott. In trenton tonight partly cloudy skies expected and low temperatures in the 30s. Overnight it will be a cool one but not as cold as its going to get 29 in the suburb. 35 in the city. Frick during the day tomorrow. But the wind will kick in. Nothing like your friday and saturday though. Blustery with that arctic blast moving in. Cold for the birds on sunday. Then a chance of rain or a mix late sunday into monday. Tuesday and wednesday, looking cool, but dry. Then wednesday partly sunny, 38 degrees. The trend is down hopefully for the birds the trend will be up. Thank you very much, kathy. Hopefully the trend is not up for temple right now. They saw something they didnt want to see today.

Eileen back on those experiences kind of just relay to carson how we went about our business. Doug pederson said part of the reason they lost on sunday was the evident.
