So happy and yesterday it felt absolutely beautiful in the afternoon.
Oh my gosh, those 70s. Yes. How good was that?
Now today we're not as fortunate.
We only roll into the low 60s. It's a chilly start.
Look at those 30s showing up in Reading and in Atlantic City.
And we see our numbers in the 40s elsewhere.
Now let's get you hour by hour and talk about the wind speeds
a little bit. So look how the wind has come down.
The temperatures were great yesterday, but I'll tell you what.
Those winds had a little bit of a punch in the afternoon.
That is not the case today.
We will keep the wind nice and light for you so it looks like
that all day, which means your inflatables are good to go.
How about this yard in Gloucester County? That's pretty cool.
So all weekend long, the wind will stay light. Temperatures, by the way.
Yeah, a little on the cool side, but I'm going to tell you,
that's what's average for this time of the year.
So it's a typical end of October day, a typical Halloween.
As for trick-or-treating later tonight,
here's your numbers falling through the 50s after that sunset,
now in the 5 p.m. hour at 5:59, but just for one day,
because tonight we're falling back with the clocks.
As we do that, it will be chilly.
Look how we have more 30s showing up,
which means a little bit of frost to start your Sunday morning
if you're about an hour to the north or to the west of Philadelphia
and in some of the Pine Barrens of New Jersey as well.
Otherwise, we've got some 40s to get you started on a Sunday morning
with our new sunrise time coming right there at 6:29.
That's the one that hurts, the 4:58 p.m. sunset.
Let's play it ahead for your Sunday.
It's another beauty as we look at some of the fall color in Monaco.
Our numbers, exactly the same as today.
Now, there is one little difference tomorrow.
The wind is still light.
We just have some big, white,
puffy clouds in your sky as we start the morning.
But then the skies really clear out
in the afternoon, and it's nice and sunny
as we hit the low 60s yet again for your Sunday.
As for the mums outside, they are still looking great,
and you still need to water them.
As we roll into the work week for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday,
that dry stretch continues, but you know what comes to an end.
We've got some rain on the way at the end of the upcoming week.
So the rain rolls in Thursday afternoon, sticks around into Friday,
but guess what else is back in that seven day?
Some 70s after this chilly weekend.
Love seeing that.
Let's check the forecast now.
Let's go check out the roads.
All right, a couple things going on this morning.
I want to get you started with the traffic flow.
A lot of green on the maps, but we've got
a sticky spot right here in Camden County.
Here's what's going on.
There's some construction this morning that's on 42 North.
You don't want to use 42 North
because it's closed between the New Jersey Turnpike and 295.
So you just want to scoot around that, use this road right here.
That'll take you around that issue.
If you're heading north, coming up out
of Gloucester County, moving into Camden County,
say heading toward Philadelphia and the Ben Franklin Bridge.
Oh, heads up, if you're in New Jersey and you use the Commodore Barry
Bridge, that's also slow this morning from a lane being blocked.
This is the other story of the morning.
You need some sunglasses.
Can you tell there's some sun glare as we look
this morning at 76 near City Line Avenue?
Fall color is looking so good.
We're peaking this weekend for fall color.
Here's 76 by the Roosevelt Expressway, nice and quiet there.
95 is looking good by the Blue Route.
And we'll wrap up our tour here looking at some fall color.
Look at those.
Beautiful reds on 202 by Malvern, nice and quiet there.
The Flyers are back tomorrow at 4 p.m.,
so plan for some more traffic right there tomorrow afternoon.
