Turning to your weather now as we take a look
at some wet conditions along Market Street
in Old City as rain makes its way through the region.
So the big question, Drew, when is it going to clear on out?
Let's give it a couple more hours.
But in the meantime, Don, we got some wet leaves on the ground
and look at all those raindrops on the grates. The grates. Oh my gosh.
Let's go for blades of grass is what I was looking for. By the way,
you see how they're circles raindrops are actually circles. It's not the
cloud crying even though we draw them as teardrops circles
it's coming down from the clouds a little
meteorology for you on a friday night hey let's talk about
a beautiful friday night down the shore
we had a lot of sunshine this evening after
that cloudy foggy start here's where we're at right now
well the clouds and all that rain came right back
in really cooled things down from those upper 70s
we've got the 60s now all across the region keep an eye out to see
who's wet who's not well we got
you covered on the Doppler radar for that.
We had a lot of green on the radar at this point.
Just some scattered showers.
They'll keep riding up from the south over the course of the night.
And I'll show you why.
I'll wind things out and give you a feel for what's happening.
See how we have more showers in Virginia?
They're just going to keep riding up just like
that because a cold front has stalled out.
And this cold front means business.
Look how cold it is behind the cold front.
That's what's on tap for the weekend.
But in the meantime, we've still got some mild weather,
but only for a couple more hours.
These mid-60s you see right here, they're out of here by the end
of the night as those numbers slide and glide right down into the 50s.
Now, here's the thing. We don't leave the 50s tomorrow.
So, over the course of the night, as our temperatures drop,
see how we have more rounds of rain?
So it'll be steady as we get those rounds from Virginia to come right
on up across Delaware and South Jersey and into southeast Pennsylvania.
Just a leftover shower right at sunrise, which is close to 7:15.
Then enough of the rain. Let's work on the clouds.
By lunchtime, we're sunny in Pennsylvania.
It'll take a little longer in South Jersey and Delaware,
but we'll get there by dinnertime.
So you'll get that sunset in Cape May.
It'll just take some time.
Look how chilly it is as we roll across the region.
And the winds are strong tomorrow, too,
to really pull down that cold air from the north.
But we'll lose the winds over the night,
and that leads to frost Sunday morning and a cold day at the lake.
But, hey, at least it won't be windy.
then our temperatures level off in that seven-day forecast.
We'll send it back to you.
All right, Drew, thank you very much.
