Than an inch, doylestown. 85, pottstown about a half inch. Atlantic city youll notice really hasnt gotten into the action quite yet, only. 02 of an inch.

[inaudible] traveling out right now i do have some good news. That earlier tractortrailer that we had in langhorne on 95 has cleared. Now were just sort of waiting for this delay to really run its course but it looks like for the most part youre moving along, a little slower than you should be but the tractortrailer is gone so things are going to be moving along a lot nicer now for you. Lets also take a live look at the big picture so you can see what is happening. We have some slow speeds out there in particular on 95. That northbound side very heavy from allegheny all the way out through to i would say about the betsy ross bridge so a little backup there and if youre traveling on the vine street expressway that eastbound side will be heavy about 11 Miles Per Hour and look at that, 4 Miles Per Hour on the schuylkill expressway. It is jammed out there especially if youre traveling on this and on this eastbound side around Spring Garden street. You can see we are definitely crowded here but it looks like on that westbound side youre delayed fifty two minutes between the vine out to the blue route so definitely give yourself time there. Westbound at Spring Garden it is fine but the biggest chunk of your westbound delay montgomery out towards that conshohocken curve going to be a slow go. Eastbound the heaviest part of your backup from gulph mills out to the vine street expressway. Time needed out there especially on the schuylkill expressway and on the vine street expressway maybe not so much on that westbound side as youre only tapping the brakes but the entire length out there on that eastbound side going to be very crowded.

Sheriffs deputies announce they have a person in custody with the murder of blaze bernstein the 19yearold student at the university of pennsylvania disappeared last week and his body was found on tuesday. The Orange CountySheriffs Office will be holding a News Conference to release details about this person in custody later tonight but again, authorities have just made an arrest in the murder of a 19yearold penn student blaze bernstein. On health check what began as a joke has now become a dangerous trend fueled in part by social media. And Safety Experts are concerned about it. Its called the laundry pod challenge in which teens post videos showing them eating or pretending to eat these laundry pods. The highly concentrated pods are toxic and swallowing even just a little bit of detergent can cause vomiting or diarrhea if the detergent gets into the lungs it can cause breathing problems. In a statement the maker of tide says our laundry packs are highly concentrated detergent meant to clean clothing. They should not be played with whatever the circumstance is even if it is meant as a joke. The cdc says the flu epidemic is now at epidemic levels across the country but disease experts think the outbreak is now stabilizing. Although cases continue to mount the number of states reporting high levels of the flu is the same as last week. So we may have hit the peak. The h3n2 virus which causes more severe symptoms and complications continues to be the dominant strain this year. A School District in idaho closed all of its schools and alabama declared a statewide emergency. Still about three months left to flu season so if youve not yet been vaccinated the cdc says do it now. With the new year many folks renewed their commitment to exercise more but experts actually say dont overdo it at the start. They recommend slowly building your intensity and the time of your workouts. That does lower the chance of strains and other overuse injuries. It also decreases the risk of a more serious condition called rhabdo. Thats when someone really overdoes it and their muscle cells actually begin to break down. The enzymes and proteins buildup so much the body cant process them. They cant filter them enough. Muscle soreness after a workout is okay but if your muscles are weak that could be a sign of trouble or rhabdo. So check with your healthcare provider.
