The southbound side of the blue route, there are injuries reported as a result of this accident. You can see a tow truck pulling away from the scene right now but moments ago it appeared that they were about to pull that car off the median and rehe move it from that. Obviously a person has we believe been transported at this point and you can see at least one lane is shut down there on the blue route right now and there is quite a significant backup piling up as we speak. And as we approach the evening rush. Were going to keep our eyes closely on this situation. We do not yet know what caused this but well bring you any new details on this as action news continues.

Tell you what, it is an absolutely Beautiful Day outside. It is. Let see it for ourselves. Meteorologist adam joseph is that standing out in that nice day on a monday. Hi, adam. You can see it, i can feel it. Lucky you. Feels really nice especially after what we went through late last week into the beginning of the weekend. So relief is here. Look at the numbers in philadelphia, thursday, friday, saturday, 95 degrees, close to 15 degrees above normal. The normal last thursday, friday was 81. Now its down to 80 and were getting closer to that number. Yesterday 85 and today so far 83 degrees. Its just 75 in new york city, 71 in binghamton, 75 in buffalo. Its really enjoyable to be out here with full sunshine and not break a sweat finally. As we look at satellite and radar, High Pressure is in control and you can see it is voiding much of the area of cloud cover and of course the precipitation. That has all been pushed south of south carolina. So, as we look at that full accuweather forecast, well chat about a crisp and cool night ahead. Temperatures start to climb the ladder as we get into the day tomorrow and then 90s will be back by wednesday, sharrie.

All right, well be standing by for your full forecast adam. Thank you. Well, the eagles they got back to work today after their Season Opener win against the cleveland browns. Quarterback carson wentz is the talk of the town after his impressive performance in his pro debut. Jaime apody live in the action news Sports Center and jamie we heard from coach Doug Pederson today about the teams shall we call it a hot start for sure. It could have been a disaster starting a rookie quarterback with very little preseason experience who nine days ago was third stringer with broken ribs. Carson wentzs debut and Doug Pedersons too left many hopeful for this season. [cheers and applause] wentz makes the snap, he steps up, firing into the end zone. Caught. Touchdown, touchdown. The first nfl touchdown pass for carson wentz. What a sport. Wentz was 22 for 37, 227 yards, two touchdowns. Eagles beat the browns 2910. Pederson said after watching the game film he was just as impressed with wentz as he was in person. Heres what he wants his star pupil to understand the day after. My message to carson obviously enjoy it. You know, this business is short lived. You get a chance to watch the film and make the corrections and were right on to the next opponent. For him to have that kind of poise in the pocket for his first start and really only having about four series the entire training camp, you just you just cant teach that. At the end of the day we want thats all you dream, you want to win. That was the goal today and we he came out and got a Great Team Win and yeah, i think it will hit me now after the game, you know, ive been dreaming about this since i was a kid. But again its just the first of many and its on to next week. Now remember the browns were not a very Good Football Team we know that and this week the eagles prepare for monday night football in chicago and they may not have a very big weapon.

Its a crash on the blue route 476 southbound side here approaching villanova. This is between the schuylkill and route 30 the villanova exit. You can see the accident pretty serious in nature take out the left lane. Traffic squeezing by on the right side but doesnt matter its still really slow coming down from Ridge Pike Conshohocken norristown through this point approaching villanova. The northbound travel time is actually a little bit heavier. Thats because for awhile they had the left lane blocked here northbound approaching the schuylkill with the emergency crews. All the northbound lanes are now opened but its jammed in both directions. Might want to think about using 320 or 252 instead of the the blue route this afternoon. A crash on the route one media bypass northbound past 252 passing the old granite run mall. A wreck earlier this afternoon on 422 westbound side at sanatoga. Just 6 Miles Per Hour passing that scene. I think id use seven outwore to get around that. On the vine street expressway extra heavy eastbound across town this afternoon because of an earlier disabled vehicle on 95 and northbound. Disabled truck at the end of the ramp from the ben franklin parkway to the westbound side and going into delaware there was a truck fire here at the base of the delaware memorial bridge.
