Counties right through the i95 corridor from trenton down through wilmington and central delaware and then in those northern Burlington County areas and portions of camden and gloucester counties also near philadelphia. Urban centers in particular are really going to be uncomfortable the next couple of days with those heat index values up around 100. Theres also an air quality alert at a across most of the region. Code orange ozone action day meaning those of in you sensitive groups seniors young kids and people who suffer from heart and lung conditions including asthma need to limit your outdoor exertion between the hours when pollutants are going to be high. Sunshine mixes with clouds on satellite. Were going to be under blazing sun a good portion of the day with perhaps the popup shower in a couple of spots later on but that aint going to happen in most places. Big issue is going to be that warmth and humidity. Were at 75 degrees right now in philadelphia, 68 in allentown. 74 in cape may. Dewpoints definitely high, up around 70 or close to that in the central portion of the region and even worse down south and thats all an indication of how high and sticky the humidity is going to be today. Oppressive humidity on the way for a lot of you. 91 by noon t and 94 is your high by 3 oclock, feeling closer to 100 this afternoon. If youre going to get a workout in, get in it early. The air quality will be better in the morning and so will the temperatures. Well have more details on how all of this plays out the next several days, matt. Right now youre still dealing with what could be more than several days of septa troubles. Yeah, and same with the Regional Rails.

We are on these new schedules as of yesterday. Theyre being called enhanced saturday specials in most cases. Thats a weekend schedule with a couple extra trains added during the rush hours. On four lines the airport, warminster, Chestnut Hill west and fox chase, youre on strictly a saturday schedule so thats a lot less service than a normal weekday schedule and thats why were seeing that crowding. Kin woods line is shuttle busing, not run wag so far, so again, if you can, you want to think other modes of transportation. Even on septa theyve beefed up service on the norristown high speedline, 101 and 102 trolleys the subways. If you can driver to one of those subway stations like fern rock and at t, you can park at the Old Navy Hospital and then walk over to the station, that would abgood idea.

Action News ReporterKatherine Scott is checking out this mornings commute at the glenside station in montgomery county. Good morning, katherine. Reporter good morning, erin. Weve seen three inbound trains come through this morning about 35 minutes apart. It certainly pays to be early. Those passengers had no trouble getting on board the train and here in glenside you can see that the platform is already starting to fill up again for the next train, but its relatively quiet. But lets go to video from yesterday evenings commute in glenside. This train was standing room only. Some even stood in between the cars. Yesterday quite a few people showed up to the stations unaware that septa was down a third of its Regional Rail fleet due to structural defects in the trains. 13,000 fewer Seats Available to riders. Septa had to down size their schedule and that translated into crowded cars, long waits on the platform and delays. In some cases, overcrowded trains will to bypass stations. There was simply no more room. Septa is hoping people look for alternatives to the Regional Rail. Estimating only about a thousand people did yesterday. Septa says today could be a little worse than yesterday with people coming back from an extended holiday weekend. Heres what one man told us today on his first day back. Ive been listening to the news yesterday coming home from the shore. Reporter one alternative that few people used yesterday were parking lots in south philadelphia that you can drive to and then walk to the subway, but whether its that, whether its another mode of transportation on septas routes, whether its uber, whatever it is, try to find an alternative thats going to ease the overcrowding and of course this is a problem there could last into august.

Storm tracker6 slows were dry. No relief from rain this morning. Taking a look outside well see sunshine up over the horizon mixing with some clouds and boy once that sun gets up there full force youre really going to feel the humidity and i cant stress enough how important it will be to take shady breaks, ac breaks and keep those cool drinks going if youre going to be outside a bit today. Your temperature is 75 degrees currently, dewpoint in philadelphia already up to 70. Thats the threshold for what we consider oppressive humidity. Winds out of the west at three and by the way theres also an air quality issue today especially for those of you among our Senior Citizens population and people who are in poor health, heart and lung conditions. Future tracker6 showing you the sun mixing with a little bit of cloud cover. Model actually wants to put a couple of real spotty showers in play later this afternoon. I dont know that thats actually going to happen but its something im showing you just to keep in mind. Most of you dealing with clouds and sun and a lot of heat and humidity. 88 degrees by 10 oclock.

Thats the story pretty much everywhere away from the shore. 92 today in millville, 92 in wilmington, mid 90s in philadelphia, trenton. Allentown reading pretty much and again feeling like about 100. Now, there is relief down the shore where youre only going get up into the low to mid 80s across most of the region. 84 in beach haven, down to ocean city. Ocean temperature looking good. Low risk of rip currents today. U. V. Index running high so slather on the sunscreen and down to rehoboth a little bit warmer maybe by a couple of degrees. If youre headed to the phillies and braves today, its a 1 oclock get away game for the braves and cool drinks hats and shady breaks will probably be all good ideas for most you. 92 for the first pitch, 93 in the ninth inning, feeling like upper 90s through most of the day at the ballpark. Looks like were stuck with this through the end of the week as hot and humid conditions build beneath a ridge of High Pressure thats not going anywhere until friday. Feet had heat tips abound. One of them is not forgetting your pets or kids in the car. When youre at 96 degrees that temperature inside the car can go as high as 136 and you can get there in just a matter of minutes so be real careful about that. We always have cases of that every year it seems where somebody forgets and things are not good. Hot and sticky, 94 today. Feeling closer to a hundred. More of the same on thursday and friday. 95 both days feeling like 100 both days. Couple of thunderstorms tomorrow. And then friday night a cold front comes in and a bunch of thunderstorms comes through along with showers but thats the cold front that does transition us back to better weather. On saturday, it will feel better. It might still be a little bit sticky but 86 is better than the mid 90s and couple of spotty thunderstorms around on saturday but not a washout. Warm and less humid on sunday, 86. So, things get better heading into the weekend but between now and then not so. A little rough between then. Thanks so much david. 5 42 now.

Happened in the northbound lanes between exits four and five. Were hearing someone was injured in the crash. And a couple of the left lanes are blocked so as we pull in the commuter report, you can see the sort of speeds were dealing with. Just 6 Miles Per Hour on this sixth day of the month. Usually we like the number six. Not sure that we do in this case. Id stay over on northbound 295 as you travel through Burlington County instead of the northbound turnpike this morning. Meanwhile overnight here hammonton had some construction along 322 the black horse pike. That should be out of there in about 15 minutes. And overnight construction that was out here on 422 in the eastbound direction that blocked the offramp to first avenue has cleared. They will close that ramp from eastbound 422 to first avenue again tonight starting around 10 oclock. Right now no eastbound delays but if you travel 422 just west of pottstown beware theres a new traffic pattern this morning. They shifted westbound traffic between 100 and stow onto the newly built bridge over the Schuylkill River during the overnight hours so things are going to look a little different there and then tonight starting at 9 oclock, theyll shift to eastbound traffic so the eastbound lanes will close starting at 9 00 tonight. Also a couple of closures in delaware. Last week they started to close falk road. Thats staying closed for a couple months. Marsh will get you around that. In claymont route 13 philadelphia pike is now shut down. Thats lasting until midnight on saturday for some Railroad Crossing work. Instead of 13 philadelphia pike i would stay over on 95 or even 495 as some alternates. Matt. Thank you, matt.
