jersey, north and west the farther you head toward the lehigh valley and the poconos that's the best chance of seeing some of that snow kind of sticking to the ground but rain or snow it will be a slick thursday morning commute. look at how cold it is. mid 20s in millville. 31 philadelphia. 27 right now in allentown. so overnight, clouds continue to roll in. that rain and snow arrives north and west especially by dawn. but those temperatures will be rising so as we go hour by hour, watch the clock and watch the temperatures. here's 7:00 a.m. we're looking at mid to upper 30s right around 40 parts of south jersey into delaware along the i-95 corridor but far north and we have as you move toward berks county, lehigh, northampton into the poconos, it will stay cold enough for several hours for some of that snow to come late but look at 10:00 o'clock temperatures. pretty much area wide above freezing. so what starts out as snow will eventually change over to all rain and wash everything away

into the afternoon. so here's the main timing. 6am until 11:00 the pocono mountains that winter weather advisory two to 4-inches. the lehigh valley we could see an inch or so. philadelphia points north and west. rain and snow changing over to rain. so there could be a brief burst of snow around philadelphia points north and west into the suburbs primarily rain. and then all rain likely for south jersey and into delaware. so as we roll the clock, you can see what we anticipate as far as those totals. lancaster, northern chester, far north and western suburbs, maybe a brief coating. maybe an inch as you move toward allentown. two to 4-inches into the poconos and once again mainly rain across parts of i-95 into south jersey. so temperatures tomorrow top out generally in the low to mid 40s. the weather authority seven day forecast shows a high tomorrow frick degrees. blustery and cold upper 30s on friday. dry for new year's eve into new year's day but it turns unsettled.
