Showers Later Today

A cool start in the region this morning will give way to a cool and showery late afternoon as rain is several hours away and to our west. Temperatures that are in the 30's and low 40's around the region will rise into the lower and middle 50's before showers move in and yes, some frost can't be ruled out this morning as you walk out to your car...especially in Allentown and Quakertown where temperatures are close to the freezing mark.

Radar below shows the areas of rain and showers off to our west -- a larger shield of rain extends from Erie back west to Illinois, while a second area of showers exists in West Virginia and a wider area of rain exists back near St. Louis.  All of this precipitation will move east and through here for tonight and tomorrow morning.   Some areas could pick up an inch of rain, particularly to the city's north, as a warm front slowly trudges on through the area.  

Flooding shouldn't be an issue considering the rainfall is longer duration -- but it will be a soggy night and Saturday morning for the region.   Par for the course in this rainy, slow to develop Spring.
