But tomorrow sounds great. Tomorrow is going to be beautiful. Today a lot of clouds, some sunny breaks and the on storm tracker6 live double scan while we are mostly dry, there is a little bit of a blip right in the center of the region just to the south and west of philadelphia pushing into western Chester County. Little green youre seeing on the radar there, so a couple of very scattered sprinkles and showers this morning. Elsewhere you might have some drizzle on the windshield from some low clouds. Lets check out sky6 and well see what were looking at out there. Ben franklin bridge, yeah, theres the cloud cover. Doesnt look particularly low over philadelphia but even here its possible that you see some drizzle on the windshield this morning. Your temperature currently is 67 degrees, not too bad. And also check out that dewpoint. All the way down to 64 so just light humidity out there. Might feel a little sticky if youre working out early bullet not too bad. Winds out of the eastnortheast at seven helping to inject a little moisture into the picture and keeping those clouds thick to start out. Ocean temperature 75 so if youre at the beach today, not tracker6 shows you that as we go through the morning and into the afternoon, there is the chance of a spotty shower. Were also looking at a fair amount of cloud cover today with perhaps some occasional sunny breaks. Thats more or less what to expect. Thats the 2 oclock view. Again the model isnt placing these little showers exactly where they might pop up but its giving you an idea there could be some spotty stuff around. Later in the afternoon, early evening maybe a couple slightly steadier showers. Not looking at thunderstorms foday, though, and most of and quick. If youre super unlucky you might be in a spot that keeps getting a few of these in a line but obviously a lot of area basically dry all the way up to 10, 11 oclock there could be a bit more of this so some light shower activity around today, mostly cloudy skies but not all that humid especially as we go later into pass the last couple of days. 68 degrees by 8 oclock. 72 by 10 oclock. 75 by noon. And it will take us until about 3 oclock to get to 80 and probably 3 30 or 4 00 before we hit our high of 81 degrees t not too shabby. High temperatures across they le it will stay in the mid 70s in toms river trenton, allentown, upper 70s possibly in reading and about 80 in philadelphia wilmington millville and 70s, upper 70s for the most part down the shore. Dewpoints this morning are in the mid 60s across the most part for the most part and kind of fluctuating between the low to mid 60s today so is really nice and for the phillies tonight mostly cloudy skies, 77 for the first pitch, 71 in the ninth inning. I cant rule out a spotty sprinkle or shower coming through but at this point it doesnt look like its enough to interrupt the game. Your exclusive accuweather 7day, mostly cloudy today, some spotty light brief showers around 81. Tomorrow beautiful as tam mentioned. Well start out with clouds in the morning but wind up partlyu. Great for union fans and phillies fans at night. Then on thursday, the humidity builds back in. And in the evening, some strong thunderstorms may pop again and some of that could continue overnight right in through friday morning. And then friday were hoping for some drying out in the afternoon but that will be a couple of humid days. Then we get a weekend thats looking good. Mid 80s on saturday and sunday, dry and nice. Thank you david. It is now 5 41 and a new meaning to micro managing. A company is now offering to makechip its employees. Daily tasks easier. The woman charged with abducting a baby from the king of prussia mall will be going to prison. Hear the sentence the judge handed down. See what happened moments before this trailer crashed on the ooh, ooh, ooh garden state parkway. You got to see that one. Matt. That is cringe worthy. Good morning, tam. Nothing too cringe worthy in lionsville. Looking good along 100 at 113 as you travel between the pennsylvania turnpike and 30 bypass. No issues this morning. Well check the blue route and talk about a water main break in south jersey when action news continues on this tuesday morning. Its not raining everywhere and in fact it really is only just raining here, the Commodore Barry bridge where we caught a little bit of a shower breaking out. And that could happen from time to time today. Getting up to 81 degrees. It will be mostly cloudy. Better day tomorrow. All right. Lets go on over to our friend matt pelman. How are the roads looking matt. Not too bad. In most cases theyre dry except that one spot that you managed the find there at the Commodore Barry bridge. Theyre dry here in plymouth construction at this point as you travel northbound on the blue route toward the midcounty tolls, were looking good, passing that barnes and noble over there where i spend so many sunday afternoons planning my next trip. One of my favorite things to do. On 476 the northeast extension overnight construction here. Southbound lanes approaching lansdale theefof commission. They should be out of there before too long. Were getting word of a serious crash this morning in upper moreland montgomery county. Its right along county lined. I would just stay up on street road instead of county line to avoid that accident. Have some downed wires in bryn mawr this morning by harriton park. Its along harriton road between morris avenue and old gulph road. Ithan avenue could get you burlington bristol bridge up right about now for a passing ship. Head up to that turnpike connector bridge instead. And we still have an overturned vehicle on the garden state parkway northbound approaching 322 and 40, the black horse pike. The left lane out of commission there although we are seeing speeds start to rise so im wondering if maybe theyre in the process of getting that cleared out. Use 322 or river road instead of main street route 40. Theyre repairing a water main break by the branch of the Atlantic County library. They think that 40 main street is going to be blocked off most of the day so again, 322 or river road gets you around it. Time for the commuter report and speaking of rivers, yeah, flooding this morning in westville along broadway around the brooklawn circle as well. That wholea often floods out in rain events. Tam. New here on action news dramatic video shows on the moment a train came within inches of an overturned car in oklahoma yesterday morning. Police dashcam video shows officers trying to help a woman out of her flipped car. She was trapped inside by her seat belt. And then seconds later a train missing that car by just a few feet. Paramedics and firefighters were finally able to free the thankfully she was not injured. And a tenth person has died after a horrific case of human smuggling in san antonio. As many as 100 undocumented immi into a sweltering tractortrailer. The air conditioning was not working and the driver, 60yearold James Bradley was in federal court yesterday. He claims to authorities that he didnt know anyone was in the trailer until he opened it up after hearing banging from inside but even after discovering at least one person was dead, he did not call 911. Imagine being able to get into your office and log into your computer with just a wave of your hand. That is becoming a reality for a wisconsin company. More than 50 employees at three Square Market in river falls are getting a microchip implanted between their thumb and forefinger. Its about the size of a grain of rice. It will allow employees to get in and out of the building, log onto their computer, and buy snacks from the vending machine. Its the next thing thats inevitably going to happen and we want to be a part of it. Employees are not required to receive the implant. I dont know that its inevitable. I think people will say no im not doing it. A woman survives six days in the woods after she became lost hiking.

Hillside road still has a downed tree. Campbell road could be your alternate there. A downed tree along woodside drive at mount airy drive. Mass transit looks good. David. Most of us dry with drizzle from low lying clouds from there windshield. There is a cluster of showers that have begun to pop up in northern New Castle County delaware. Southern Chester County and parts of Delaware County and a little while ago we showed you a sky6 image of the Commodore Barry bridge with a little rain on the lens and thats what it is, just that light shower. A couple of other little blips beginning to develop elsewhere so a few brief showers were looking for today are already popping. These are dewpoints. Temperatures right now are in the 60s across the region but i wanted to show you that were in the mid 60s in the i95 corridor and later these numbers are probably going to drop a little bit so its not as humid as you step outside this morning and wont be this afternoon. Going to get warm later. 80 degrees by 3 oclock and a high of 81 probably clocking in about 4 oclock today. Tam a brief spotty shower is possible today. Clouds, some sunny breaks otherwise. Okay, thank you david. A 71yearold woman and her dog are safe after they became stranded in wilderness for six years. She went to Olympic National park in washington to scatter her late husbands ashes. She says she became disoriented and couldnt find her way back to her car.

She ate current pine needles and even ants and drank water for a stream. After six nice nights she saw a helicopter and was lifted to safety. I started waving my hands as much as possible.
