and another nor'easter, and still dealing with the after effect from the one that made its way through town friday. just a mess out there. and we've got another one headed our way, however, wind wise, it doesn't look like it will be as bad or as widespread as is what we dealt with on friday. so, that's the good news, but some areas might ends up picking up little bit more in the way of snowfall. let plea take you right now to a live look at center city. some beautiful sunshine out there. and also, some nice cumulus clouds out there, temperatures checking in in the 40's this afternoon. it is right around 42 degrees in philadelphia, 43 in wilmington. we are on our way up into the upper 40's, during the latter part of the afternoon, but we do have breeze coming in out of the north and west. about 16, in philadelphia, so that's making us feel just little bit cooler out there today. the breeze is finally, though, going to be subsiding. and calm down as we head into this evening. and also, tonight, with generally clear skies, and overnight low temperature

right around 31 degrees. things pretty quiet on storm scan3, at least locally. zooming out i'll show this system that we are keeping a very close eye on, making its way toward the east. then what happens, it ends up transferring some energy off the dose. than is where we will find our coastal area of low pressure or nor'easter developing as we head into tuesday night and wednesday. so starting tuesday night, likely see rain-snow mix, also for areas well north and west of town, as we head into the overnight hours tonight, tuesday night, that's when it continues to occur. and then by wednesday morning, likely seeing rain for areas south and into delaware, or shore points, but look what happens right along i95, dealing with a little bit of no mix. if enough cold air pulls its way into the system we will prolonged head throughout the day wednesday, for that reason, i think, the wednesday ly ebably end up being the worse of the storm, if you will, then things will start to move on out fairly quickly. a winter storm watch has already been issued for areas

north and west of philadelphia so that does include places like allentown, reading, jim thorpe, mount pocono, bush ppe could be some more ale coming down with this stuff. as we town get more information and so keeping an eye on that, as far as cast amounts, we're doing something little different, adding confidence metero the map. here thinking anywhere from one to 3 inches, possible, right along the i95 corridor, areas north and west, will be the location that feed the higher amounts, right now putting moderate confidence on this forecast. so, what doses that mean in it means things are probably diagnose to change little bit as we continue to tweak things , meteorologist lauren casey and also kate bilo will be looking at new data and they'll continue to update things as we head into tonight probably even into tomorrow morning. so, why don't we have the high confidence with that yet? well, easy answer, this is the reason why, look at t t model, t actually performed very poorly

on friday, with the last system, only about an inch, and then north american model, saying over 10 inches, so a lot of stuff we still have to ion out with the forecast, what we will continue to do, keep you updated not only on cbs-3 but also cbsphilly.com. your eyewitness weather seven day forecast, 47 degrees with increase in clouds, that precipitation moving in on tuesday. as we head into wednesday, rain and snow likely, probably likely seeing most of the rainfall for our shore points, then also cents into portions of delaware. wedngs quieting down on thursday, it is going to be breezy though, couple of flurries possible, a lingering snow chance as well on friday, then plenty of sunshine, saturday is looking rather gorgeous. so, not as big of a wind threat. but you know stuff has already been kind of loosened up whatnot from the last system, so won't take too much wind to cause some damage. keeping an eye on that. >> thank you, chelsey. check it out, all kinds of secrete yours washed up along beaches in the united kingdom following the nasty nor'easter that impacted much of the east

coast. they stepped around entire coastline of star fish, crabs, as sorted shells, marine experts call this a mass stranding and say it happens when shallow water becomes extremely cold during a storm. >> that's fast naturing. >> i know. be right back.
