>> let's take you back outside, all across the delaware vale, live look from old city philadelphia, it is cents dry this morning, at least what's coming from the air on the grounds, ya, still dealing with the snow, and the ice, hopefully the warmer temperatures today will melt some of the stuff off. but keep in mind, we're dealing with downed power lines, and fallen trees, all across the area. so let's start our team coverage this morning. >> we got steve keeley, burlington county, jenny joyce in bucks county, but let's start with sue serio, in our weather center. morning, sue. >> yes. so this is clean up day. and dig out day for a lot of folks who got double digit accumulations cents, seven out of ten, you're going to do pretty well today i think with the sunshine it will be a little breezy. watch out. you that you with jenny joyce little earlier for slippery spots this morning, our actual temperatures are in the 30's, our windchills are in the 20's there is morning, so you may ends up slipping and sliding, specially walking because it in it looks wet it could be icy. our storm from yesterday, now bothering new england, so we don't have any more
5:03 am
precipitation to show you at least at this point. and we will talk about what's going to happen of course next week, in a little while. let's just deal with today. 33 degrees as you walk out the door, feels like 25, sunrise time 6:24. so we've got early sunrise, at least earlier than it has been, and 44 degrees for a high temperature today, and sunset time of 6:01, so when you have these longer days in march, and you get a march snowstorm, that is sort of ac separates the melting process, but it still takes a while for a foot of snow to melt. and just when that's happening, when we will get the next storm probably, bob kelly. >> melting on the day, freezing on the overnight, slippery and slushy really over the next couple of days, live look, doylestown road and county line road. going to make the right or left turn. you're going to -- tires gripping on some of the slush, and instead of two lanes on an off ramp may only have one or one and a half. that will will naturally cause delays on our major roadways, down the shore, we got high tide, flooding again
5:04 am
a.c. expressway. lights out. downed trees. power lines in mt. laurel. a lot of major roads closed. i know steve keeley take us there live in just a moment. i think the two hour delay and school closings will help here this morning. for the shaders, route 38, right at lenola, right by pj wheelihan's there, traffic light out. going to deal with that throughout the morning. all of septa's regional rail lines, they resume normal service, but expect delays, there is about half dozen pus route still suspended, and that will get better as we move through the morning. so go to the system status page, at septa.org, to find exactly what's going on with your bus route, because things will get better once the roads start to get opened up and cleared. amtrak, service suspended until 10:00 between new york and boston. because of residual wire problems, from yesterday, ac rail lines still suspended, new jersey transit, again, they are attempting normal service today, same deal with the bus route, impacted by
5:05 am
downed trees, power lines, they are cross-honoring, that's good, patco, and dart, attempting regular service as well this morning, karen, thomas, good morning to you. >> it will take couple of hours to get up and going, time 5:05, talking about the power outages, we mentioned major problem all across the delaware valley. look at this right here, storm, knocked out power, sparking those lines in bridgewater, new jersey, people told in the area to take shelter, than is a good reason why. as you clear off the cars, and the property around your home with the trees and the power lines, you never know, what mother nature will bring. >> let's get through the power outages right now, because so many of are you in the dark, and struggling in the colds, as well, pse&g in new jersey, 90,000 people without power right now. ac electric, a lot of folks down the shore area, we've got about 8,000 people in the dark. in pennsylvania, peco says, it has cents 55,000 people without power, and so many of you are in bucks county, ppl is reporting about 3,000 people without power up there, allentown, lehigh county area.
5:06 am
and then delmarva, reporting, we've only got, you know, small outages, 48 people without our in that area of section every delaware. >> spoke to the crews in pennsauken walking around the clock 16 hour shifts trying to get the power lines working again, so, new jersey part of it certainly hit hard, started with snow, switched over to rain, and then the heavy snow kept on falling. steve keeley knows all about this, took him a while to get home and a while to get out. good morning to you, steve. >> yes, nothing like finishing the 16 hour shift then having trouble just getting in your door, your car stuck, then all of the trees down. not trying to do a who is me, just remember couple of weeks ago, do i need any more firewood, because i am running low, enough for couple of more fires. now i have firewood probably for four years once i event lip get the chain saw to it. boy, just devestation again all over the place. and you get attached to your plants and your trees and everything and like wow that's gone now.
5:07 am
anyhow, i don't have any problems compared to what i've seen over the last week, and here we go again. here is a interesting case, so power out all over mt. laurel. notice the house lights outside here are on. so they've got power. but the wires down here on hartford road, another one of the main drags, shut-down, and chris can see in his camera, piles of snow, you can see the lines down, police tape across the road, and if you're not getting the idea, once you wind down off of route 38, you see all of these barrels and these signs here, and amidst all of the deep slush, them people making the left turn into the rowan college former burlington county community college campus, and maybe they know their way around through that zig-zagging campus. see the lights none there. hopefully people can get back out either on the other side to marne highway or back out to route 38. interesting, we talked about the two hour delays, here at rowan college they know they've got wires down all over, power down all over,
5:08 am
they're going to cancel everything until noon. so they're doing the four-hour late start, and they'll try to resume classes here at noon today. but everything before noon shutdown. and boy the road is just a mess, they plowed through here, main drag, but see we've got half foot deep slush all over the place. so, slop and slush combined, we call it slash, how about that? sounds like a guy's name, good name to have, slosh jones. >> sounds like a rock star, all rock stars getting out this morning, steve, thank you. and you are a rock star, 16 and a half hours of coverage yesterday. 5:08 is the time now. so many of do you not have power specifically bucks county just slammed. let's get right to jenny joyce, with some of the problems there. jenny? >> reporter: good morning, karen, good news hopefully. we just saw a power crew pull up here. they are working on the utility line. right across the roadway. in addition to the power crews, we've seen number of plow trucks, salt trucks, moving through, trying to get
5:09 am
things back up and running in time for the morning rush, as is this intersection, we're right at street road and hulmeville road is very busy. so without power, conditions are even trickier. peco reporting 50,000 outages in this county right now. it is the result of downed trees, downed power lines, last night heavy snow on i95 was another big issue. we saw tractor-trailers, and average size vehicles, trapped in snow. wheels spinning. but cars stuck in place. it even happened to our news van. thankfully after a couple of hours, a group of nice guys stopped by. they helped out, our chris o'connell and photographer dave dig out. one family in bensalem tells us their power went out yesterday around 1:30, 2:00 while they were watching it. v. no power means you have to find some old school entertainment playing in the snow, playing board games. the family told us they're getting by just fine, but the husband and wife have some conflicting views on this winter weather. >> it's actually been okay for me, really has, i've been
5:10 am
playing with my son, i enjoy the snow still. we have couple animals, couple of dogs, we play in the snow with, they love it. >> winter is getting rough, you know, it is enough. i mean, ou have enough, and you have fun, your kids have fun with the snow and all, but time for spring. yes, just time for spring. >> so not only this wawa in bensalem is without power and still is, several wawa's in our area spent a portion of the storm in the dark, no access to wawa, just not what we're used to in these parts. because of so many outages around town, the bensalem school district is closed today. we're live here, another live look at the utility crews right across the way trying to get the power restored here. but, to see full list of school closings, and school delays, head to our website fox29.com. karen, thomas? >> oh, because it is so long, all right, jenny, thank you so much. delaware county, lot of people there lost electricity for the second time, just got it back up, in time to lose it all
5:11 am
over again, because we had all of the snow so heavy and thick, on our trees, pulling them down, on to the wires, this is broomall, specifically, with the branches down. we got a lot of homes in that area, they were in the dark, for nine hours, they are some of the lucky folks, they got their lights back on. and in camden county, there was a tree that came across partridge lane, in cherry hill. so people putting out some caution cones to warn other folks about the danger right ahead of them. so we know the snow melt right now creating a problem because you may not see lots of black ice. the road may look like it is totally dry and whatever, then just sheet of ice when stepping outside. >> talking about those caution cones, look at this right here. danger caused by yesterday's snow, still being felt this morning. the sidewalk around the lowe's hotel on market street, has been taped off. police lights were out overnight warning people of the falling ice. didn't want any danger out there. and certainly not injuries. so they put the sign, and they roped it off. it will stay that i way through the morning. yet a lot of us told us about
5:12 am
the thunderstorm. pretty cool. it is cents a thunderstorm with snow instead of the rain. dawn timoney out there in hamilton township, which is mercer county. and it suddenly errupted. take a listen. >> there it is again. >> oh, my goodness, can you hear that? did you guys hear it? >> yes, we heard it. >> we did. >> wow. >> really? >> yes, we heard it. >> applauding over here. >> mike masco really freaking out right now. stay calm. >> all right, usually it -- you guys, it is still doing it. it is still doing it. >> come on up here. is that making a difference, mike? >> yes. shush. >> pretty cool. weather phenomenon there. >> mike masco, sue serio, they were pretty on the monday which this one, great predictions on that, but he's a total geek nerd, he followed that one. if you want to follow our weather development, download our app, just might be better

5:15 am
5:16 am
>> let's talk about what happened yesterday, i know a lot of folks are waking up, well, how much did i get? and if you live in delaware, we will go state by state here. tally brooke, 6.9 inches, at the airport, new castle county, it was 6 inches measured there, newark, home of the university of delaware, got 4.2 inches, new castle, three, smyrna, 2.7, even down in dover almost 2 inches of snow. montgomeryville pennsylvania, 13.5 inches of snow. bethel township delco, 11.8. here is the poconos, east strads berg, 10 inches, boyertown, berks county 7.4, exton, 6.8. and at philadelphia international airport, official measurement of 6.1 inches. in new jersey, florence, new jersey, 5.7 inches. mt. holly, 5.3.
5:17 am
pennington, 5.3. i think actually i need update the new jersey totals, because they're not entirely accurate. so, we've got a low pressure system from yesterday. it has moved away. but not that far away. it is snowing in new england. and we've got calm conditions for today. might get little breezy. the biggest problem this morning, may be some slippery spots with below freezing temperatures, especially, in the suburbs. okay, so, now here we are, it is saturday morning, all right? here is the gulf of mexico. here is a storm starting to form down there. so it will affect the gulf coast over the weekends, mississippi, louisianna, georgia, alabama. then it moves off shore. and that is about as far as we can go with that storm for now. but, it looks like it is forming a coastal storm, now it could stay largely off shore. and only give us little bit of precipitation it, could hug the coast, and give us a lot. what will the temperature be when it starts? a lot of questions still, but you need to be aware of the possibility, i would say the
5:18 am
earlier it would start would be sunday night t would affect us monday. that's of course more to come on that. 33 degrees in philadelphia right now. so only agree above freezing here, right at freezing in wilmington, 31 in pottstown, 31 in reading. these are the places cents where it could be a little slippery. 37 degrees in wildwood. thirty-four atlantic city. those folks got little snow yesterday as well. just as it was exiting. we have a 9-mile per hour wind in philadelphia. so we have our windchills in the 20's, keep that that in mind. of course wear the winter coat, your snow boot, and offering keep you warm and dry as we recover from yesterday. 44 degrees today. forty-two tomorrow. breezy, on friday and saturday. we've got some sunshine for the parade sunday. high of 44. and then, a we mentioned, if we get this storm, it will be sunday night in monday probably, with if it start in the morning, we could start with snow, and then have it change-over to rain with the high of 42 degrees. that's the early call, bob kelly. >> i'm going to put a little plow on my schil alley so i
5:19 am
can go from the parade. >> and take care all of us? >> and take care of everybody. by the way breakfast today, we're going to go to mckenna irish kitchen, in haverford, right there, along darby road. so we will be out there today from 9:00 to 10:00. having some good irish breakfast. as we get ready for the saint patrick's day paradement double shot for you here. here is a live look at route 202 and 100 in chester county. little fuzzy, pennsylvania turnpike near downingtown, slow going this morning, just give yourselves some extra time, factor in some slippery spot along the way, residual concellations left over from yesterday. not all of the planes are where they should be, not just here in philly but in new york and boston, so check with the airline on your particular flight. airports always open, it is the airline that makes the calls. and amtrak suspending service between new york and boston until 10:00. because of some left over power problems, from yesterday, and the rest of the big board, ac rail line still suspended, new jersey transit, cross-honoring some buses are still detoured or delayed.
5:20 am
again, check with the website and it will get better as is we move through the morning here, patco and dart running a regular schedule. septa's regional rail lines, everything is running, but expect some delays, especially along like those tree lined routes on the main line, like the paoli thorndale line, still dealing with some downed treason branches, we got to get all of the steps and platforms all shoveled and plowed. all of the bus routes we got about half dozen still, suspended, but again that will get better as we move through the morning. hello to north wales. main and walnut, great example whatever we are dealing with here today. yes, everything pretty much plowed. but right here, that's wet, that could be icy. you get to the intersection, the slush could be slippery, and cause for some slippery sliding conditions. and maybe that left to right turning lane isn't as wide as it normally would be, maybe an on or off ramp instead of two lanes coming off the schuylkill. down to only one. rough go. but we will get through it this morning, karen, thomas, back to you. >> keep us updated. philadelphia fire department
