in philadelphia. so remember that if you are going to need to shovel some snow this morning, especially but really any time during the day take frequent breaks because with the wind chill this low it doesn't take long to start to get symptoms of frostbite. it is this sunday march 8th at 2:00 a.m. that we will spring ahead. it is start of the daylight savings time. turn your clocks ahead one hour. so 2:00 o'clock will become 3:00 o'clock and in essence you lose that hour of sleep. that is a bummer but look at the non-bummer temperatures that we have coming up in that seven day forecast. it is a gradual warming trend which is nice because it will gradually melt the snow that fell yesterday but not today, not too much melting going on with a high of 27. tomorrow we are up to 38 not the quite as harsh. we will have sunshine. forty-four on sunday. forty-six on monday. forty-eight on tuesday, and then into the 50's, on wednesday, and thursday that is a lot to look forward to but today bob kelly, i don't thi

temperatures, 33 in philadelphia, mount pocono, but in philadelphia it is 46. trenton has 43, 34 in millville, 43 in wildwood. but these winds are sustained at 26 miles an hour in mount pocono, 17 miles an hour in philadelphia. and 18 miles an hour in wilmington, so winds have really pick up. and 40-mile per hour wind gust, it is mighty windy in mount pocono, this morning. so, makes it feel even colder, but what a warmer wednesday we had with 61 degrees for high temperature, 51 is the average, so it ended up being the mildest day of the year, so far. and, back to cooler temperatures, for today tomorrow. but this is more seasonable for mid-march. temps lower 50's, bright sunshine today we start off sunny tomorrow, see those increasing clouds, and we just had the timing of the rain for you. so sunday looks like a dry day, and then we stay that way, through saint patrick's day, and beyond. thursday, stepping up, out the front door, no problems at all on the blue route roads are dry, we don't have any black ice, or any fog, it is actually going to be what looks lik
