Cecily tynan with with the accuweather forecast. You wont believe what this forecast looks like just after a couple of days, right have to get through the its unbelievable. When we and continue in just a moment. For years, fios has been promising fast internet to small businesses. But for many businesses, its out of reach. Why promise something you cant deliver . Comcast business is different. We deliver superfast internet with speeds of 250 megabits per second across our entire network, to more companies, in more locations, than fios. We do business where you do business. We do business where you do business. All right, lets get this accuweather forecast. Cecily tynan. That was quite a tease earlier. Lets have it. Big changes, big warmup by the end of the week but first we got some rain and right now its not that heavy. Storm tracker6 live double scan showing weve got a scattering of light showers. There is one batch of some steady rain right over the mouth of the delaware bay moving up to the northwest but the heavier rain will be moving in by dawn tomorrow and tomorrows really going to be a washout. Accuweather highlights will show you its going to be a cool and wet tuesday. Todays high 60. Tomorrow we probably wont get any warmer than 56 degrees. Thats 11 degrees below normal. And were looking at periods of rain through the day generally about a half inch to an inch and half of rain, so a steady soaking and in addition to the rain, it will be very windy. Especially right along the coast. The storm system will actually be pulling down winds from higher in the atmosphere so where you dont get the friction of the land right along the coast, well have wind gusts more than 40 miles an hour. Even inland it will be quite windy with wind gusts up to about 25 miles per hour. So, a raw windy cold day tomorrow and right now its not that pretty out there. Plenty of clouds, definitely on the cool side. Philadelphia 57 degrees, allentown 59, cape may 53 and wilmington 58. So, satellite and radar showing the low pressure im tracking its moving into South Carolina right now and theres some heavy rain moving across North Carolina. That low pressure tracks just to our southeast so that would be pulling in steady rain during the day day tomorrow. Future tracker showing about 10 30 the clouds in place. Again it will be somewhat damp with a few scattered showers but that steady rain is here right in the time for the morning commute especially south of philadelphia could have some heavy downpours around 8 oclock and its basically on and off rain through the day tomorrow. At lunchtime some heavy rain west of philadelphia, the evening commute a soaking rain philadelphia and areas to the east and then we gradually taper off tuesday night into wednesday morning but i think well have a tough time clearing the air of the clouds during the day on wednesday. Going to have to wait until thursday for that to happen when the sunshine is back. The good news with the rain, the pollens forecast tomorrow, we are getting a little bit of a relief. The rain will be washing the pollen out of the air for one day. Back medium high on wednesday and the pollen back to high levels by thursday and friday. So, the exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, tomorrows kind of a nasty day. Rainy, cool, windy, 56 degrees. Wednesday it gets better. Still a lot of clouds, seasonable, 68 degrees but look at this. Thursday 80 degrees for the nfl draft. Heading to the parkway, temperatures in the 70s early in the morning, by 4 oclock 79, by 10 oclock, still mild, 70. The penn relays beginning on friday on thursday i should say. Friday we heat up to 84 degrees. Saturday 88. 2 degrees shy of the record high. Sunday again 2 degrees shy of the record high 89 degrees and monday the warmth continues with a chance of late day thunderstorms and a high of 84 degrees. So, if you like it summery, it will be arriving by the recommend of the end of the wee. We like it summery. I do too. World news tonight with david muir next on channel6.
