but the timing, again, that's the problem. here it comes. by 1:00 much of the area covered. maybe an irk shoe of mixing right at the beaches. dovg it ends from west to east. the temperatures are way below freezing across most of the area except for some of the southern shore regions. so with the cold roads that snow has a better chance of sticking. steve will be keeping an eye on where that snow is falling first. >> that's right. we have an arsenal of tools we use here. one is the camera. that is valuable to you and to me. we are looking out at lancaster county. the white returned there. cameras are not showing anything going on. it means it's snowing up in the

mid-20s elsewhere. it is 22 in allentown right now. at the shore that's where the biggest uncertainty is as far as i'm concerned partly because the temperature is 44 degrees. it is 31 stone harbor. as the snow starts the temperature will drop some. if we get any wind off of the ocean it will try to keep the temperature back up closer to freezing. you can see the snow just developing. it was nowhere a couple of hours ago. it is starting to hit the ground in western maryland. this part of it is not. these little fingers of moisture, that's just the beginning. again again, we are not really calling it a storm. look at what we have here. a little low pressure here. that's about it. it will zip on out of here.

if it wasn't so cold it wouldn't be a big deal at all. here we are at 11:00 a.m. futurecast. you can see the computer models showing the snow advancing as we go into early afternoon. so it's just starting at 1:00 or 2:00 but it's quickly getting heavier. you combine it with lower temperatures and areas in dlaarr blues you have accumulating snow. you mixture towards cape may beaches. eventually the colder air will come back and they will get more snow and accumulate by 6:00 it is all over with for all of the western suburbs. how much snow? the latest models showing

the entire area effected, the lowest impact in lehigh valley. 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. in general. 1 to 3 inches in general but cold ground equals the slippery conditions on the roads especially bridges and overpasses. look at this. three hours ago there was nothing on the radar. it is expanding. it is intensifying. some is starting to stick in western maryland. this part is not reaching the ground yet. it is an indication that these computer models are right, that the area will continue to expand and the darker blues indicate the heavier snow. you can see you much heavier it is at 3:30 than it is at 1:30.

that's just as the afternoon rush is getting started. it stays cold. it moves offshore. it is a brief thing. it is not going to last long but it is certainly going to make slippery conditions. steve continues to monitor all of the cameras and we'll get to show you where that snow is going to hit first. >> that's right. we are looking at that band blowing up from west to east. it is encroaching on areas like the lehigh valley. you have the fuzzy gray sky here. up in the cloud level. it is snowing. that fuzzy appearance snowing at the cloud layer. it is moving slower than normal. we do have delays at the airport. it is due to snow and ice that will be kicking in here over the next couple hours.
