Weve already seen coastal flooding today as high winds hit the jersey and delaware coast. We have First Alert Weather Team coverage tonight, we begin with Sheena Parveen. Sheena, how soon do we need to worry about the next big ground of rain. It will mostly start overnight, into tomorrow, thats when the heaviest rain will be here tomorrow during the day and well see the winds increase, too. The winds will increase in intensity and be a persistent onshore wind coinciding with high tide tarm leading to coastal flooding. Right now we have rain to worry about. Its across all the major interstates in the philadelphia area, so not a great evening commute. Here the roadways very wet in many locations, but also on the slower side. Were seeing light to moderate rainfall. More rain to the south and offshore and this will be moving onshore into tomorrow. That rain moving onshore, along with higher winds tomorrow. Thats going to give us a first alert weather day, even as we go into part of your saturday. Heavy downpours moving in, strong winds increasing to 40 miles an hour along the shore. Areas of flooding will be expected with high tide like i mentioned, so we could see beach erosion and threefoot storm surge with high tide. Along the shore we have a coastal Flood Warning out. This will go through the weekend, so with this onshore winds could be gusting near 40 miles an hour or greater. I wouldnt be surprised if they started gusting near 50 in some locations, wave heights eight to 12 feet offshore and also beach erosion. We will see the persistent onshore wind flow. With the onshore wind flow, three foot storm surge coinciding with high tide. High tide will be between about 10 00 a. M. And noon tomorrow. Thats going to also be coming along with heavy rain. We are looking at a pretty messy next 24 to 48 hours and then well be tracking Hurricane Joaquin. This is not related to Hurricane Joaquin over the next couple of days, but we will be watching closer to the end of the weekend. Coming up, i have the updated track on joaquin. Changes in it. Our Team Coverage continues with nbc 10s drew smith. Drew, coastal flooding throughout the day. As i can see, its windy out there. Reporter yeah, sheena was right, the wind is intense out here. Take a look at the ocean. Wind is wiping up waves and were not out on the ocean and the bulk head walls, thats been hit hard all day. Good news is, low tide over here and because of that the water is lower and the streets are no longer flooded, but it was a problem today. The drainage couldnt keep up and crews here are worried tomorrow will be even worse. It was a scramble on the docks and the streets today. When the sirens blowed, you should get your cars off, because they go under water fast here. On side streets and the main roads, the water piled up and a constant rain meant boarding up windows. A wet chore. Looks like the wind and the tides really picking up, its crazy. Reporter it was a bad day for engine trouble on this boat.

More storms head our way for tonight and tomorrow, many people are also keeping an eye on this. Hurricane joaquin gaining strength. Everybody along the east coast wants to know exactly where its headed. Meteorologist Sheena Parveen joins us again. Youve been watching the late etc. Models, but still a lot of uncertainty. Of course, with any hurricane youre going to have a level of uncertainty, especially when its not moving in the direction that we expect it to move as far out in time as we expect it to go, but right now its still around the bahamas, that would eventually send it up towards our area, at least offshore or potentially onshore, but at this point things do look to be getting a little bit more nailed down as much as we can with these updates coming in. Winds 130 miles an hour, so it is a major storm and take a look at this amazing image of the storm now. Now were looking at the cloud cover within the storm. This is a very strong hurricane. You can see very well defined eye and once it makes that northern movement, i think were going to have better model agreement. This is the updated track. As we go into sunday, 2 00 p. M. Off the North Carolina coast, possibly a category 2 hurricane. The most recent updates have shifted a little bit farther out in the atlantic, which would be good news for us because we wouldnt have as much rain and wind by the end of the weekend, so that would be monday into tuesday. Again, this is the newest track, it just came in. This is really what some of the models have been hinting towards today. So today we have a bigger model disagreement, all these different lines, these are different computer models. Today were seeing a large disagreement in the models, which again some of them are suggesting now farther out to sea. So this is something we are definitely watching very closely. Since the models are not agreeing, we have to take into account both scenarios. If it would stay offshore, still some wind but less rain. As of now, the track has shifted farther out to sea. Again, were still several days out from this impacting the area potentially, so as we get closer to the weekend, we will have a better idea over the next 24 hours, even more updates through tonight, as well. Coming up, more about that heavy rain coming in tomorrow. Not related to joaquin and what it means for potential flooding. Thats straight ahead. Nbc 10 is tracking all of these storms.

Were keeping an eye on joaquin. Also a storm that could hit us tonight. Lets go to nbc 10 first alert meteorologist Sheena Parveen. Yeah, we are looking at an increase in winds and rain as we go through tonight and especially tomorrow and saturday. So first alert weather out for friday and saturday, i think a majority of the rain both of these days will be here friday but the wind is going to be up both days. Heavy downpours and strong winds. I think the main concern here will be at the shore because that wind direction is an onshore wind, a persistent onshore wind. Coastal Flood Warning in effect, so we could also be talking about beach erosion and a threefoot storm surge coinciding with high tide tomorrow morning between about 10 00 a. M. And noon along the shore. Right now we have rain to deal with, not great timing for the evening commute around the philadelphia area, 95 up to trenton, also 476 and 76 up through parts of montgomery and bucks county, moderate to heavy rain and also through the poconos we have some moderate to heavy rain there, too. More rain is offshore, even to our south so were going to be stuck in this weather pattern with rain and wind and the wind that we had around today, thats going to get stronger starting tonight and tomorrow. Heres a live look at cape may, one of the areas were watching very closely. Coastal Flood Warning out for cape may. You see the surf here really increasing, really strong rip currents and the water coming onshore with the persistent onshore wind. We have a north wind 14 miles an hour. Just a few minutes ago the gusts were reported around 21 miles an hour, but we expect the wind gusts increasing tonight. Temperatures in cape may a chilly 59 degrees. Heres a look at the wind speed through the rest of the area, sustained around 15 Miles Per Hour. You can expect it to get gustier to tonight. By 10 00 tonight we could already see winds gusting near 40 miles an hour closer to shore, around 30 inland and tomorrow morning we start to see more rain moving in. So this will be a concern along with that onshore wind that we expect to develop a little more of a northeast wind and possibly at about an east northeast wind in some spots, so that would be pushing water onshore, temperatures will be chilly, but the wind gusts will be around 45 miles an hour still. Inland areas still gusting near 35. Then we go into saturday, winds will still be gusting near 35 to 40 Miles Per Hour, even through the day saturday. Its going to be a very windy, cold, wet start to your weekend. Sunday morning were still talking about the wind gusting near 30 to 40 miles an hour, so the whole weekend looks windy with areas of rain. By saturday morning and saturday evening were looking at possible rainfall totals around two to three inches in some spots, too. Now were talking about the hurricane. What i showed you is not related to Hurricane Joaquin. Hurricane joaquin is still over the bahamas and is a category 4 today, so its strengthened quickly, winds around 130 miles an hour. It is moving to the southwest, technically away from us, but eventually it will start to take the northerly turn and once it does so, a lot of the computer models struggling with it today will get a better handle on it come tomorrow. There you see it sliding up to the north, this is the most updated track from the National Hurricane center. Kaub a category 2 hurricane by sunday afternoon, but watch what happens into monday and tuesday, it actually does take a bit more of a shift off to the atlantic, so were talking about a higher chance of what we would call scenario two, having it go out to sea. That would give us less rain and wind. The first scenario would be landfall farther to our south, that looks a little lower at this point. You never want to look at the center of the cone, anywhere inside the cone is fair game since we are looking so far out in time, but as of now, a better chance for the storm to be moving offshore. More updates tonight at 11 00 p. M. And early tomorrow morning and an even better idea by then. For tonight, rain and wind increase. This is all before were even going to be looking at joaquin getting closer to us. 53 for the low in philadelphia tonight, 51 areas north and west. Tomorrow, first alert weather day out, rain heavy at times, gusty winds, especially along the shore, onshore wind, temperatures in the mid to upper 50s, chilly with that, too, going into saturday we stay windy sunday, as well, and well be watching conditions finally clear up as we go into the middle of next week. More sunshine, but until then we will have our eye very closely on the weather we expect tonight and tomorrow. Of course, Hurricane Joaquin.
