classic clipper. for us we didn't get too much out of t we had very modest little coating at least in my neighborhood ended up verifying very well in terms of how much snow you saw across the northern tier of the delaware valley. overall nuisance more than anything. i want to start things off by showing you what's going on with the region wide zoom. yep, you have still got what looks to be pretty robust system there right? not for us, though. while you still may finds residual shower of rain or snow for that matter it, cents not really going to be anything that has a chance to accumulate, more than anything, i would say through the day skies start to clear winds starts to crank that will be the bigger more noticeable factor of our forecast quiet inbetween systems, we talked about this yesterday, actually we want to zero in on what's going on across the dessert southwest where we start to see this next storm system beginning to take shape t has got some snow with it, some rain, definitely looking a lot moran mate dollars than it did this same time yesterday. >> this will eventually pull into the planes, then just

roll across the eastern portion of the united states. soap, track is very, very important here s but here is what we have got in terms of your best shot for what we call significant snow. in other words 4 inches or more of snow to fall. and it does appear at this point that it would be the northern tier of our area that has that best chance. so, while i think this will almost strictly be a snow producer storm if this final track pans out it doesn't appear as though the further south you go you would be looking at more than maybe few inches, but again this is very localized area for a very large storm so until it is coming in little closer, then we can pinpoint. but that is generally speaking what we're looking at. clearing skies chilly wind kicks up today guys, high hits 36. drop it down to only nine tonight. that's bad enough. factor in gusts as high as 35 miles per hour out of the north wells and that will probably make it it feel like it is sub zero for everyone into tomorrow morning. so if your plans include hitting the road for whatever reason, being outside taking the dog for a walk, seabright sunshine. but will be frigid.

be ready for. that sunday afternoon the earliest we see the next round of the snow come in. it looks like generally is with us for most every groundhog day monday. so that's that said, phil might not see his shadow which would actually mean early spring. so there is a trade off there. wouldn't you say ukee? >> phil, i would love phil if that happened. >> we would send him love letters. >> phil's been upsetting me in recent years. >> specially last winter, phil. >> dude, phil, counting on you. still ahead on "eyewitness news", it's been philly tradition for well over 20 years. we'll have the wing bowl weighing in. >> first though here's what's coming up tonight on cbs-3.
