Remember, weve got clear skies and light winds and longer overnight periods and that combination does make for a drop in temperatures. Lots of sunshine, though, on our highways and byways later on this morning with cloud cover well off over canada and Northern Michigan and so youll need your shades again today. Up in allentown look for lots of sun, pleasant conditions and a similar high to yesterday, 75 degrees. Down the shore were not worried about rip currents anymore.

So, tomorrow morning like this morning well start out very chilly and pretty much similar numbers and then winds fairly light overnight. Tomorrow with a frontal boundary getting a little bit closer to us, well turn the flow from the south and get up to 78 degrees. It will be a little bit warmer because of that southwesterly flow. It does look like that front is going to be slow to approach, though, so well get a chance to get up to the 80s for a couple of days ahead of it and maybe even as its pulling away still in the 80s. And the october outlook from the Climate Prediction Center by the way also has a chance of above average temperatures throughout the northeast and were kind of in the bulls eye of that so look for more warm weather over the next couple of weeks and maybe beyond. Your exclusive accuweather 7day, sunny and pleasant today, 75 degrees. Sunny and warm on wednesday, 78 and then on thursday, partly sunny with that front closer to us but still amazingly nice high of 84 degrees, at least those of you who are trying to hold onto summer, its going to feel like it for a few hours in the afternoon. Then clouds and sun on friday, a high of 80 and friday there may be a shower with that that front coming through. Some of those showers could last into saturday morning. The best chance of rain right now looks to be north and west of philadelphia. Then we get into saturday afternoon and were looking pretty good. Warm, breezy, 82. Another 82 on sunday and it might even feel a bit humid on sunday for the eagles game. Another shower might pop up here or there as well. And then cloudy with rain possible for columbus day.
