ck county up to the lehigh valley not much going on the dry air is fighting the storm and west of that in berks and chester, light snow but we see an intense band of snow south of philadelphia and interior southern new jersey that pushed through parts of interior southern delaware we look at double scan live radar up towards malvern, in norristown and quakertown and trenton and milford, light snowflakes at times barely coating the ground at 222 in reading and really where the meat of the storm has been where we talked about yesterday in southern new jersey and delaware, where most of the snow totals coming in you can see the bright, pink areas in millville and 49 north and mays landing

and hammonton and ocean and burlington county, we see snowfall rates of snow up to 2 inches an hour, the band moves in and then moves out so it's a quick 1 to 2 inches from smyrna to dover and it pushes to the east. as we go the evening rush hour, philadelphia is down to a mile and a half and as you lift to the north a better evening commute but a half file from atlantic city and millville. as we go to meteorologist cecily tynan the air temperatures are critical. >> the temperatures are falling once the sunsets and temperatures across the board at or below freezing 35 degrees and wildwood 32 and wilmington 30 degrees, that is why this is

in fact falling as snow, here is what to expect. it's not the amount of snow it's the timing it's really timed around the evening commute tonight there is slippery roads especially the bridges and overpasses and the main roads are treated really well, especially around philadelphia and it's a fast moving system and will be out of here at midnight and temperatures drop down to the 20s in the overnight hour, could have a bit of drizzle and that means we could see areas of black ice overnight and during the morning commute on the untreated surfaces. you want to be careful. the national weather service has the winter weather advisory for philadelphia and areas to the south until 11:00 for light snow, most is south of philadelphia allentown and poconos is missing out on the snow event. north of philadelphia, you are not getting much, a coating to

perhaps an inch, but i'm leaning towards the lower end philadelphia 1 to 2 inches south though this is where we see the heaviest snow accumulation, heavy being a relative word, 2 to 3 inches but that could be an appetizer for the weekend, adam will talk about that in the full accuweather forecast. >> we have a team of reporters in the area showing us conditions in the region lets continue our coverage with john rawlins he is in chester county and live in chadds ford. hi there john. >> hi there shirleen we are getting off to a slow start. no accumulation at this point this is northbound route 202 behind me here. i think you can safely say that unlike sunday here, drives are not having many problems so far no impact. >> by noon time, hours before

the first flake was suppose to fall, salt trucks were loaded in on stand by on routes 30 and 202 and penndot said they would have 300 trucks out this evening the biggest concern was not accumulation but the predicted timing of the snowfall, expected to come during the congestion of rush hour that could slow the progress of trucks and add to headaches. >> it makes our job higher our trucks have to go with the speed of traffic, you get on routes like the schuylkill expressway and the blue route and we are pretty much at a crawl and that is the rate we can spread salt. >> the ace hardware stocked with storm items like salt to salt spreaders and shovels and plenty of sleds in case this big hill here becomes covered in white. >> a huge hill for kids,

hundreds. kid kids coming down this, we do well with sleds. >> nobody breaking out the sleds yet route 202 running well and so far no accumulation but that could change. >> all right thank you. as cecily mentions parts of south jersey will see some of the heaviest snow today. that is where our new jersey correspondent, nora muchanic is today. live in hammonton hi nora? >> just little flakes then and now big wet fat flakes falling, this is bellevue avenue the main drag through hammonton. the people here are ready for the few inches expected to fall. the front window of our expressions florist in hammonton

is a winter wonderland filled with snowflakes and polar bears it's okay with tony ann if that snow turns it into a winter wonderland. >> i love snow. >> this is a happy day for you? >> yes, it is. >> we have a flower shop, so valentine's day we kill it but right now it's great. >> hammonton has 60 miles of roads to cover and that means loading up roads with tons of salt and making sure the 1500 tons of plows are loaded on the trucks. >> so when the snow comes in it doesn't bind to the asphalt and it creates an oatmeal like texture. >> at the hardware store they have everything you need to handle the snow and for customers that want to be prepared. >> didn't want to wait until

6:00 to drive home from medford and maybe the ice. >> i have a snow blower and a shovel and i have rock salt and my daughter who does the snow blowing because i don't know how to do this. >> we are ready and stock up in december and prepare ourselves for the winter the snowy mix is coming and we have shovels and rock salt and anything you need to get through it. >> we are live here in bellevue on hammonton avenue. it's not sticking on the streets but it's sticking on the bushes if we think about it we can't complain. mother nature has been very, very kind to us. nora muchanic, channel 6 "action news." >> nora, thank you. lets head outside, mobile 6 giving us a live look on 95 south on the approach to 476 people are tapping the brakes and it's starting to backup as the snow intensifies.

a live look at sky 6 hd over philadelphia international airport the sky is thickening with white snow, that is causing problems at the airport that tells us that incoming flights are being delayed now by an average of an hour and 15 minutes, they are asking travelers to check the flight status before you leave the house. the timing of the storm means your drive home will take longer than normal. >> this is our eastbound lanes traffic is stopped and the police officer is moving wheels across the street it involves a

white suv and a black van he is parked on the westbound lanes and that is taking out a lane as well. we have slick conditions under the underpass imagine what we see where the roads are open, and the precipitation falling right now. speeds across the region in the teens, as you go to the western suburbs we are higher where we see light snowfall and nothing sticking to the roads just yet, one of the larger things we are dealing with now is the visibility. this is the ben franklin low visibility and speeds restricted and these cars are trying to make shir way to philadelphia right now. another shot of low visibility. this is 95 at 420 at the airport and love park low visibility there and travel times takes longer than it normally would do, from the vine street expressway to the blue route that is not too bad but the visibility is low the new jersey turnpike northbound and

southbound 45 miles per hour speed restrictions and we are also seeing speed restrictions on the garden state parkway now as well. back to you. >> thank you autumn. we have brand new video of a deadly police involved shooting in south jersey and it's giving us a look at how a traffic stop turned violent. vernon odom is live now in bridgeton cumberland county at least one person says the video looks bad for the officers involved. >> this further inflates what is a controversial case all along. watch this video closely. the release of this police dash board video from the night of december 30th has triggered much controversy in the south jersey town it shows the officers repeatedly ordering the passenger jerome reed as he pushes himself out the door, it

shows his hands in front of him and he is killed by the officers local activists say that this is clearly excessive force. >> jerome reed complied to the officer's demand and got out of the car and he received a hail of bullets. the altercation began with a traffic stop and reed had a criminal record and was arrested for drugs and resisting arevelants last year. they want the cumberland prosecutor removed from the case and demanding that the state attorney general handle the probe, they are promising a fair and thorough grand jury investigation, they say that this video shows a pattern of police brutality in bridgeton. >> it gives a face to an atmosphere that exists here every day. when you guys leave this atmosphere will still be there and these people will still be

harassed. >> tonight a spokesman for the attorney general says that it is proper that the county prosecutors grand jury's investigation goes forward and they will review the findings of the local authorities. vernon odom, channel 6 "action news." >> thank you. former philadelphia sportscaster, don tollefson is found guilty on all the fraud charges against him. this is him in handcuffs after the jury returned the verdict this afternoon. they say that he bilked victims out of $350,000 by selling them bogus sports and travel packages and faces up to 30 years in prison. chad pradelli was in the courtroom today and he'll have a live report coming up tonight at 4:30. it is time now for business and we want to give you a quick look at stocks the dow closed up 39 points and the nasdaq gained 12.5 and the s&p rose 9

and some change. >> pennsylvania attorney general kathleen kane spoke up about the claims that she leaked confidential information about a rival. monica malpass has more on this today. >> a grand jury recommended that she be charged with perjury and false charges. she spoke out today saying she did nothing and why kane thinks the allegations were all made up. and the measles outbreak continues to grow and we'll have the stories and much more coming up on "action news" at 5:00. we'll see you both then brian and shirleen. >> thank you monica up next adam is back with a check of the snow moving through our region right now. and it turns out a hug is more

than just a comfort, why one doctor says it's one of the best things you can do for your health every day.

mobile 6 continuing to navigate the roads there right now on northbound 95 heading towards the platt bridge and the snow continues to come down and make for a tricky commute this evening. >> and we know it's only going to get worse from here, let get the latest track from accuweather. >> brian and shirleen with the sunsetting you won't have the solar radiation trying to melt the road surfaces anything that is not treated will ice up overnight tonight. as we look at stormtracker 6 live double scan can you see the intensifying storm off the coast and there is lightning starting to build with the low to the east of us 16 or so lightning strikes in the last 15 minutes and closer to the low that

starts to develop east of the atlantic city, that is why southern new jersey and delaware is getting most of the heavy snow during this storm. as we press in closer on double scan live, north and west of philadelphia, it's just really light snow showers coating the ground and starting to pile up south of glassboro and parts of delaware, that bright pink in buena, and west of there in bridgeton all the way to the atlantic city expressway towards hammonton this area is 1 to 2 inches of snow per hour and that continues to lift to the north and east right along 206 and head towards burlington county and speedwell and makes its way to the east and long beach island. as we look at the photos coming in on social media we are there on facebook and twitter, i am tweeting and facebooking all day, here at smyrna anna sent

this in a nice coating of snow and in fact smyrna that is some of the locations that have seen the most snow so far about an inch in parts of kent county and dover a half inch so far and woodside .5 inches. yesterday we were saying it's not going to be a lot of snow but it's the timing and with temperatures falling below freezing across the board here most of the surfaces are wet but the southern areas even untreated surfaces that snow is piling up and with temperatures below freezing it will turn hard and icy underneath. as we look at satellite and radar taking shape as the energy continues to pass through as we look at future tracker 6 the heavy snow continues south and east of philadelphia lighter and more scattered to the north and west.

and at 10:00 tonight, still some energy trying to ripple through, and there could be one last gasp of snow showers north and west of philadelphia to coat the ground and by midnight everything is out of here and the clouds linger the bridges and ramps and overpasses are the first to cover and then the secondary roads and things could ice up. as we look at totals from allens town to buck county a coating or so near philadelphia and again that band to the south wilmington millville to atlantic city 2 to 3 inches of snow in total. your four day at 4:00 tomorrow melting snow around here with some sun and temperature as above average at 42 and lots of sun on friday and looking good at 40 and a sizable storm could come on friday with snow, sleet and rain and 36 and much brighter come sunday at 40 degrees we'll have more on the

possibility of the saturday storm. >> wishing the snow away on saturday. >> we are buzzing next. >> a lot of people come to philadelphia, and run the steps of the art museum ala rocky what if you get there and guess who is there? rocky. yes that is in the buzz.

and you are looking live at what is the epi center and vernon odom and how that image changes the last few minutes and it's coming down with greater intensity and we'll check in with an update in a minute. yes former vice president al gore, is teaming up with rap star, pharrell to combat climate change, they made the

announcement in switzerland and it will happen in on all seven continents, to puts pressure on leaders attending a major climate conference happening in paris at the end of the year. you know that it is a philly must a rite of passage, running up the museum of art steps like rocky did and one group of friends did that this weekend and they ran into this guy at the top. and he said to them, you guys are fast and making me look bad, and he ran into a few fans you can imagine, and he took selfies and these kids got a great shot with him at the base of the steps is he in found shooting creed the latest rocky infallment. what a good sport. there he is. at this epic place people come to visit. you can come there any minute of day and people are doing that.

action cam in cape may they are starting to accumulate just in time for the evening rush, lets get to adam joseph tracking the clipper system. >> the sun is getting lower on the horizon and it's allowing the snow to stick easier when the sun is up the radiation penetrates through the cloud cover and helps to melt it on the pavement surfaces and right now we have light snow showers to the north and west of philadelphia and heavier snow as we head south and east, where we are near the transition line of sleet, rain and snow, that is where you get the extra lift in the atmosphere, where you intensify the snowfall rates we look at double scan live, in and around philadelphia light snow is falling on the schuylkill expressway towards wilmington and west towards chester and wilmington and berks county and

the new jersey turnpike seeing snow falling and heavier in the east near hammonton near the atlantic city expressway and mays landing and all the way to the coastline seeing snow. from sea isle city to atlantic city in cape may where the snow is sticking. in fact, we look at ocean city new jersey this is sent in to us, the boards are getting covered down there and white on the sand as well and visibility is dropping to a half mile in atlantic city and 1.3 in wildwood and better to the north and east where trenton there are visibilities around 10 miles this is a small storm affecting the atlanticic, philadelphia over an hour delay right now with the air temperature of 29 but everywhere else in the major hubs, no delays and pretty nice weather, once you get out of philadelphia it's good no matter where you are going. we'll talk about the timing and

the possibility of another storm for the weekend. >> i suppose are you going somewhere with palm trees. >> how about orlando. >> sounds nice. >> the system is moving quickly, commuters not so much. kenneth moton kenneth moton along the ben franklin parkway. >> at times light snowfall and others it picks up a little bit. we have accumulation right here on the grass on the ben franklin parkway but the sidewalks and streets are clear this is what we see around center city, the snow started a couple of hours ago at 2:30 this afternoon we saw people bundled up using extreme caution and starting the trek home on the streets the streets department deployed 80 trucks and they are salting, primary and secondary streets, the city says this is mainly a

salting event and the crews are prepared to plow if necessary. they say they will definitely be taking it slow. >> concerned i live in downingtown and i know it will be rough when i get home. with the snow coming do you plan to leave earlier or is this the time you leave. >> i had a meeting to attend at 3:00, i was hoping to leave early but i couldn't. >> are you concerned about road conditions. >> no but i'm a good driver very to watch out for the other drivers. >> this is the situation on ben franklin parkway toward city hall there. we are expecting 1 to 2 inches in the city, people are starting to make the voyage home here. kenneth moton channel 6 "action news." >> thank you ken en as people make the voyage home, mobile 6 is giving us a look at 95 south

the name of charity for his family and his habits. the verdict is a relief and bitter sweet. >> there are no winners, we don't get the money for the foundations and mr. tollefson is going somewhere that is not a winning scenario for him. >> we exposed him for what he is, a liar and a thief and he got what he deserved. >> prutd prosecutors offered him a two year sentence with little time actually behind bars, and now he is broke and facing up to 30 years behind bars. >> i'll continue to work to be sober and a better person in any way i can wherever i am. andn worked for several

stations, and the sentences will happen within the next 30 days. chad pradelli channel 6 "action news." >> thank you. philadelphia police are looking for two robbery suspects who threatened a store clerk with a gun last night. surveillance video shows the man walking into the new mini market in logan just before 9:00 p.m., the suspect in the black jacket immediately points a gun at the employee demanding money seconds later he docks a weapon forcing the worker to hand over $300 and fortunately the clerk wasn't hurt. sparks through during a burglary in the german town section, it shows a man forcing over a bakery door at the a and l deli and can you see the suspect yank the register from the wall, sending sparks through the outlet and escaped through the

same door with the machine and cigarettes. if you have information on this call police. we have a consumer alert a furniture moving company in delaware is out of business and customers have to go pick up their own belongings. owned by pastor jerry jones has put the announcement online all the furniture inside is wrapped and intact. and customers can pick up their belongings in wilmington through next friday. from rental cars to returns we outline little known ways your considered can help you save. and the controversy taking the air out of the patriots big win. what the nfl is saying about their investigation into underinflated footballs. and two men admit to having

coke in their trunk and it's all a joke people are debating whether this soda prank when too far. and adam joseph is back with the full accuweather forecast.

the nfl says the investigation into a possible scandal involving the new england patriots is ongoing this afternoon just last night our partners reported that the 11 of 12 game balls a lotted in the game were found to be underinflated and that makes the balls easier to throw and catch and they handily beat the colts for their trip to the super bowl. what we mains unclear right now is if those balls were intensely deflated. >> imagine returning home from a day of errands and discovered you no longer had a home.

one new york woman found out when she was out her husband rented a bulldozer to destroy their home and everything in it. he told police that the home was in such bad shape he had no other choice. the police ticketed him for criminal mischief because he didn't have a permit. it's national hugging day and while that might sound corny the simple hugs are great for your health. >> it causes the release of kortzal and a decrease in stressful situations. psychologists say it's easy to get detached from the world around us but hugs reconnect us with each other and research

show us that people that get frequent hugs are less likely to get sick when they are under stress. >> big fan of hugs. the viral hoax has many people asking the guys behind coke prank on cops, they are asking people when they walk by if they want any coke and the word gets out and the officers respond. >> we have a bunch of coke in the back i'm sorry. >> kyle -- >> step out. we'll do this one by one. >> so they get cuffed and are taken to the police car and they are searched and then the big reveal yes coke, as in coca cola, no hard feelings at first even a handshake and one of the officers calling them geniuses and the lapd saying it was

dangerous for participants and' waste of time and resources. american girl dolls are super popular but it isn't just girls that love the dolls a mother was in search of a boy doll for his son because his older sister had one and he felt left out. she made one herself her son loved boy toys also but wanted a doll to pretend to be a daddy she got the doll and cut the hair and dressed the doll in boy clothes and her son was thrilled. and other moms agree they would do well to put those dolls on the market. speaking of boys, you can learn from a centenarian jessie just turned 109 years old the oldest living woman in scotland the

biggest question is what is the secret to a long and happy life, she says with conviction, stay away from men, they are more trouble than they are worth and has never been married and eat a warm bowl of porridge every morning but when it comes to the boys they are bad news guys and that is why she is 109. >> may be words to heed. >> national hug day but she is not getting one from me today. autumn marisa is in for matt pellman in the traffic center with an update for us. >> i'll give you a hug don't worry. >> we want to watch the bridges, the ramps and overpasses out there right now we are on the schuylkill expressway making your way up to vine street expressway and 30th street a long line of cars from an earlier accident as can you see

it's slowing things down, not bad in the westbound lanes take it slow and we are seeing the precipitation hit the ground and things could freeze up as the temperatures start to drop. taking a look at the big picture speeds in the western suburbs nice and high, we are not seeing a lot of snow just yet, closer to the city 15 miles per hour and the visibility is extremely low we'll start by taking a look in new jersey that is where we see a lot of snowfall, this is 33 at creek road, southbound and northbound lanes we are seeing a lot of salt trucks go by in this shot, they are out and about trying to take care of the roads and keep on top of things showing you the visibility. this is the ben franklin bridge low visibility out there and slow speeds and they are reduced to 35 miles per hour, moving along and showing you 95 we see a lot of snow falling here this is 420 from the airport and ridley park again nice and slow out there as well.

back to you. >> thank you. and let step outside shall we? the action cam is live in bridgeton cumberland county you can see the snow is accumulating and it's weightier and sticking on some of the sidewalks there meteorologist, adam joseph is tracking it for us and he'll have the exclusive accuweather seven-day forecast coming up n.

buck county and seeing a void as the dry air is carving in the particular region and even there it can fill in with a coating of snow here this evening light snow north and west and heavier snow north and east. as we look towards chester county and lancaster county dry air is pushing in into central parts of lancaster and berks county light snow is falling and trying to puncture over the northeast extension and center city and light snow showers and the band of heavy snow that originally developed near middletown and smyrna and hammonton and 47 west of the sea isle city. we have pops of heavier snow a quick burst of snow and inch to half inch and in and around surf city. social media is aglow here this afternoon if you are not following us on facebook or twitter we are there all the

gasp of energy it quickly erodes and pushes out and how much to expect snow total wise, trenton and allentown a coating of snow and higher terrain and and inch between philadelphia and 1 to 2 inches in the southern areas that saw the burst of snow from middletown east of vineland and right on the verge of atlantic city. now we are talking about the beginning of the week on saturday, low pressure from the gulf of mexico and this will be moisture loaded and a nor'easter is likely to develop near the carolinas and the question right now how long will it track if it hugs the coast we'll see more liquid, but if it pushes to the east, the precipitation is uncertain and we could have a mixture of snow, sleet and rain around the region. as we look at the exclusive

accuweather forecast, it's cloudy with sun and melting snow, and temperatures of 42 and as we get into the end of week, still mild with sun and 40 degrees notice not a lot of cold air 36 degrees but we are expecting some snow, sleet and rain, the track is dependant but a decent amount of moisture and more snow showers early on monday of 32 and then the bitter cold arrives in the middle of next week. saturday will be more moisture but the question is what type. >> saving with 6 abc when we come right back. puffs knows winter is hard on your face. the start of sneeze season. the wind-blown watery eyes. and of course, the snow angels with your little angels.
