And it marreed a lot of plans. Today, full day of sunshine, this is beautiful, down in the margate area.

It will be hard press today finds a cloud even. So were going to be looking for beautiful day. High pressure to just the right place to do just the right thing for us. Temperatures in the upper sevens today. We add to it tomorrow, though, we get into the 80s tomorrow, in advance of another cold front. And this one is going to be adding to the humidity for us on monday, also, chances of showers, thunderstorms especially as we head into the afternoon hours. And maybe specially off to areas to the north of philadelphia. And then by tuesday still not completely out of here until we continue with chances of picking up a shower or thunderstorm. Lets see with this computer, see if it did point out yesterday there would be some problems right along the shore. It over performed. But, still you are going to be left with Better Weather today.

And then you notice the showers, that start to break out, 5 00 tomorrow afternoon few showers some of em them cents you can tell by bulls eye look, get heavier. Move through the philadelphia area. Then as we get to monday night, 10 00 still dealing with some of the heavier showers to the north. And by the time we get to tuesday, we may still be dealing with some showers around here. Soap, we cant totally rule out dry couple of days, because we will get a section of it, but then the rest of the day on monday, tuesday especially the second half, on monday, and maybe to begin with on tuesday and in the afternoon, chances of some showers. So just unsettled again weve seen that before, the rainfall amount doppler is estimating, in advance of this system, that the heaviest amounts would be off to the north, and maybe even off to the north of allentown.
