you are going to see these heavy showers, storms, straight up along 83, again, just west of us, from about baltimore up through harrisburg. but, it is still holding together. watch it does so into our area. right now, in philadelphia, rain free, but 70 degrees, with high humidity, and some fog in spots. , temperatures mild. fog, dense down the shore along the coast, but 7-mile visibility in philadelphia shows it is not particularly dense, but around, so your driving hazards will be some rain, left over from yesterday, and some morning fog, and the chance for some rain later today. seventy-eight is the high temperature, it is cooler, although relatively speaking because we're still muggy, for tonight, there is chance of showers, just like last night, any of the showers could be heavy at time, rain ex ending into thursday morning, with fog, as well. another busy morning when it comes to the weather as far as conditions out on the roadways, morning rush, just getting started, kacie.

what are the biggest issues snow. >> we have few accidents, then we will get down to, i found some fog for you, caitlin roth. eastbound side of 422, 29, accident involving a deer there. hatfield township bethlehem pike at north broad street accident two. so we go to route one, right at delaware route one, this is down right in rehoboth beach, horrible fog conditions down there, not so much at the jersey points, into south jersey, but, delaware, really sock in right now, karen, chris. >> thank you, kacie. so police in camden searching for gunman who shot 21 year old man overnight. it happened at south tenth street, sheridan avenue, just about four hours ago. police say the victim was shot in the stomach. we don't know his condition. >> truck driver with the hearing today, up to steve keel any mt. laurel, verying it tweets have been sent recently, steve? >> reporter: well, we got a good hint, though, from people real close to this case. what we could learn in court today. and, that is that the key

question in this case may not be how long that truck driver had been on the road with the wal-mart struck, but how long he had been driving first on his way to work, and to the place where he first got into the wal-mart truck. those close to the case say 35 year old truck driver, kevin roper's long commute, from his home in georgia, to the wal-mart truck, before he even began driving it, is now the focus of this investigation and the key to the case. no comment how long roper's commute was where it was he pick up this truck. so, in court today, we may learn what state roper started driving the truck in, how far, how long his commute was, to get to that state first, and so, his long commute combined with what may have been a long shift and drive after that, may be how police came up with that court filing we first saw monday, minus any details when they wrote that roper had not slept in more than 24 hours before the crash. and because the crash happened

here, in new jersey, the first state in the country, to make drowsy driving and falling asleep behind the wheel a crime, that involved a tv star, roper knows, he's the focus and he says a scapegoat. >> driving a car is like driving a weapon if you are at high speeds. so, yes, if you are not in best condition, peak driving is the same as drunk driving, they've done studies, they've proved t so when something like this happens, what bridges back my memory, that driver needs to go to jail. he killed somebody. >> how do you stay awake when your behind the wheel? >> you get rest before you go behind the wheel. you have to know. there is no remedy. no remedy for that. >> wal-mart wouldn't say if he had a lawyer, and if he had a lawyer he certainly would not tell this guy to get on social

media and report about this case, tweets attributed to the truck driver now widely reported as his, have him both remorseful, and also, claiming, that he's being scapegoated saying, quote, i can't express how horrible i feel but adding because a famous person was involved, and all of the bad press is about finding a scapegoat, writing i was never charged at the scene of the accident, because once again, i was not guilty of any crime, not until all of the tv cameras came. and he denies that police filing that he hadn't slept in 24 hours, not once saying that to any law enforcement or media person he wrote, on twitter, and he began, though, with my prayers go out to all of the families affected. so lawyer won't be too upset with him, because he's already set up defense, he's very remorseful, which just like to hear, as women. so we will find out maybe in court today by him whether he says anything public, whether or not that is indeed his tweet, twitter account, and whether or not that is how he feels right now. >> sue, karen? >> we'll look for all of that,
