meteorologist, katie fehlinger , liver on the cbs-3 skydeck with word of rainmaker headed our way. katie? >> that's right, jim, actually not just one, two separate systems over the span of the next three days. and in addition, april-like temperatures, in fact, go along with that, so quite a bit to discuss in our full forecast later on in the broadcast. but i do want to get you out the door. tiewj tuning in right now, you have afternoon plans, what beautiful day. i have actually took little walk between shows here, i saw people with their windows down , i'm not talking shorts and t-shirt weather here, but take a look, virtually nothing to see on storm scan at this point. so let's move right along. take a look at area temperatures here. and our area temperatures are in fact actually very, very mild right now. at 50 degrees in the city, 51 millville, 52 atlantic city. so very mild beginning to the afternoon for our area. mid 40's, through some of the outlying suburbs, but again, normal high about 42. so this isn't bad at all. meanwhile look forward through the rest of the afternoon he

i'm six stories on the skydeck, hint of breeze, but the worse of the winds testifily eased up. down in the 30's at the moment. very close to what will eventually be our early morning low, and we're at 26 in reading, 24 in allentown, meanwhile down the shore we go, where you're finding mixed bag here, 40 ocean city, 23 by comparison, in cape may. so quite cold. depending where you are starting the morning here. specially with the ocean breeze, but regardless. most of us are going to see sunshine followed up by clouds, and a chilly day unfolding but milder than yesterday still almost 10 degrees above the average here with clouds eventually starting to build. very quickly looking at the area headlines, warming up as we mentioned, but get this, another day this week that hits the 70s. now it, comes with a pretty big trade off. not only do we have couple every rain chances but there is a possibility that we even see some severe storms. coming a but later on, when we peg that to happen, what the outlook looks like right now. >> good morning, looking at the blue route, taillights, app

in fact, yesterday, behind me, on the skydeck, we couldn't even make out the skyline let alone the skyscrapers. so yes. it is definitely much clearer start to the day. if the winds is light enough, if we keep the moisture in place which we likely will, could see few patches of fog. again, haven't seen it anywhere near what we saw yesterday let alone much problem at all. storm scan, nice and quiet. high clouds rolling through southeastern pa. today is another day featuring may like warmth with the highs topping off into the low 70s, reminder, normal high, about 46, 47 degrees. so far cry from where we should be with some sunshine along the way also light southwest breeze. now, by tomorrow, this is something that's going to start to get wiped away, as we've got pretty potent cold front passage waiting in the wings but for today great excuse to be outside. low 70s we mention, should hit about 72, come 2:00 p.m., 3:00 w storm system, more specifically frontal passage that takes place tomorrow to lends itself to much cooler a by sunday, with another storm next week, yet another warm up remains very
