and we think we will finds that specially through eastern monmouth, ocean counties. meanwhile winter storm warnings sort of cut right inbetween here. then you have got winter weather advisories further inland. notice the trends. worse out to the shore getting progressively less of impact the further inland you go. this storm will intensify off the coast by this evening. that's real when the brunt gets underway. that's when you will start to see the blizzard like conditions out toward the area shore points, specifically, again, ocean monmouth county. it will be windy. the winds driven snow down through the shore towns and really anywhere i would say through the city of philadelphia certainly possible. in philadelphia, specifically, talking six to 12 inches of accumulation. we will come awfully close to foot in the city, if we don't actually hit t so definitely a big concern for travelers out there tonight. meanwhile, look ahead to tomorrow, snow and win continue but taper time. by wednesday quieting down. and then on thursday, not through the day but specifically at n

now, if you go close enough to the shore line, ocean monmouth county that's where could you even haveby the time this is all said and done. so we are sedgley dodging the worse hard to believe but the brunt of this storm as we saw from mayor de blasio up in new york definitely going up to the big apple. snow timing, through midday today, light snow. you may have some lulls in the action, but will be there. heavy snow, and wind, the strongest of it, coming through tonight and early tomorrow morning. but i do think that the evening rush will be impacted, that's when you start to really see these conditions begin to dramatically deteriorate, so, you know, this morning's drive isn't ideal either. but it is the bert of the two typical rush hours. by tomorrow, still snowing still windy but gradually tapering, and then by later tomorrow night thankfully done with the storm. but boy are we going to have clean to up do on wednesday. basically the one and only guaranteed sunny day of the forecast. but it will be a messy day and then by thursday night maybe more snow. >> more. >> i'm thinking two

why is ocean monmouth count not in it? because you have blizzard warning, even worse for you here. here is the essential gist. the further northeast you go, the worse it will be. generally, if you are closer to the shore better shot for more snow than do you up toward the lehigh valley and inland through central pa. kind of backwards when a lot of people think about how snow moves into our area. but there you have it. it is not just snow. it is definitely very windy conditions that will be picking up for us as well. our nor'easter timing in general, through the afternoon, the snow will continue through midday, general one to 3 inches, but winds starting to pick up. tonight, and tomorrow morning early, is when the brunt is moving through so tomorrow morning's drive will very likely and lot worse than what we will find this morning but, as i send things out to meteorologist, carol ericson i am sure she can a test, definitely not a picnic out there. she with the cbs-3 mobile weather lab, carol? >> you know, we're at a car wash right now in spring city in chester county. they've not pl

and we expect that to happen for ocean and monmouth counties and point northeast. look telling future wind speeds general expectation classic, nor'easter, northeasterly component to the winds flow. but expecting generally the winds flow starts to shift. see it turning more easterly, northerly through the course of the overnight and early morning. that's the brunt of the storm. that's the core, will rotate through, we keep the winds around, most of tuesday but by that point, you know i would say through midday, the early afternoon that's when we will begin to see it taper. through this morning as we've been discussing, light snow, if it hasn't already started will caution advised. afternoon bridges in these additional snow showers and still some slick travel, then the snow really starts to blow and drift around. as bee see the intensity pick up with the storm. our exclusive eyewitness weather snowfall map. we have tweeked it since last night, specking general six to 12 inches for philadelphia, lehigh valley poconos southern new jersey, lesser totals the further inla

. >> the poll of monmouth university, asked in the recent economic upturn, whether ttys dow, 8% said yes they felt they had been impacted a great deal 30% some, not at all 29%, in other words 61% of americans say the economic upturn is passing them by, that almost correlates bill schneider with the economy being stagnant. is there anything the president is pushing forward that would change that? >> well, it's going to give money in the form of tax cuts to the middle class. left wing cuts that would expand the size of government. this is not a big government spending program. this is entirely done through tax system. with the exception of the community college which has to be paid for in partnership with the states. but mostly it's a way of using the tax system to give benefits directly to wage earners. the biggest problem in the country right now is wage stagnation. middle class people and workers have not seen a rise in their wages or standard of living for 14 years. even though economic growth is increasing in this country. that is a big paradox and both the democrats and the repub

blizzard warning will go into effect tomorrow at noon for ocean, monmouth county where we could haveinds gust to go 50 miles an hour blowing snow will reduce visibility and that's where we'll see thes eye of the highest snowfall accumulation. tonight through monday light snow develops 9 o'clock until midnight. general through the day monday to maybe 3-inches of accumulation. now tomorrow night into tuesday that storm intensifies off the coast. that's when we get the heavy snow over 1 inch per hour snowfall rates possible especially across eastern new jersey. additional 6 to 12-inches maybe more than that as winds gust over 30 miles an hour maybe up to 50 near the coach. temperatures holding in the lower 40's for philadelphia but there's cold air that will work its way in tonight. coming up in the full forecast we'll time out the storm and talk about the snow amounts through the delaware valley. keep your eye on the storm along with me and now is the perfect time to down loads the cbsphilly what. get live radar and track the snowstorm as it moves through our area. you can find it on g

but in the ocean and monmouth counties are included, blizzard conditions point northeast.e may county up to the poconos in that little sort of bean-shape sliver i guess, you know talking six to 12 inches. and the worse of the snow, does come in, and starts to become the worst in terms of your visibility, and your travel as go into tonight the evening drive and then through the overnight and early tomorrow morning. now, it is all winding down, through the day really, as we go into tomorrow. by tomorrow night basically gone. so we'll have six to 12 inches to clean up around philadelphia, maybe as much as 18 in east central new jersey, nice bright and sunny on wednesday, but the clean up, we have to do. that will then thursday night can you believe it, another chance for snow. now, as the winter wet he approaches count on cbs fill toy keep you up to date on school closings head to our website cbsphilly.com. check on the status of your school hey while there good time to sign up for text and e-mail alerts as well. jess, over to you. >> thank you 6:47. nice big caution sign out

so especially through an ocean into monmouth county where we actually will see blizzard warnings take effect, otherwise winter storm warnings around the area. prunt of the storm tonight into tomorrow, generally the timing, that's where you could be dealing with tropical storm force wind gusts out at the shore line, so dealing with light fluffy snow it will blow it will drift it will significantly reduce your visibility, and white-out conditions are absolutely not without question. here's a look at the advisories i mentioned to you a moment ago. do you have blizzard warnings taking effect at noon in ocean, monmouth counties, generally where the worse will be for our area. but, certainly, it is is still a significant storm through philadelphia, all those counties shaded in the pink, and the general expectation for this zone, is that we're looking at swat of six to 12 inches as things progress. soap, that will be storm total at this point though, really just getting through the morning drive and getting you into the midday. probably only going to be dealing with modest totals of a coatin

but as go out toward the shore points, a full-on blizzard takes shape for ocean and monmouth counties, looking at well over a foot in spot. exclusive snowfall map. we have updated it since last night. so you certainly want to stick around for the updated totals there. but we do want to continue our team three coverage, sends things out to meteorologist carol erickson, man, you are putting a lot of miles on that mobile weather lab carol? >> this weather is forcing us out all the time, early in the morning, too now the good news, at this point is you can get out. we're not having any trouble out here, in fact, these roads look soaking wet got to be brine, because it feels like as you're driving through it, it is like a rainstorm even sounds like the roads are as wet as after a rainstorm, with temperatures of 28 degrees here in the mobile weather lab. i think they've been out the penndot crews just dumping stuff on these roads they're fine at this point not seeing any precipitation coming down right now, we're headed out to the pottstown-doylestown area. and those are areas that we've se

potentially still as much as a foot through portions of ocean, monmouth counties.bly sharp contrast depending on your location but bear in mind that just because you don't see a ton to shovel out there that it is not hazardous, so i know vittoria will be talking about that. as the day progresses talking low 30's at best, certainly still breezy out there too to blow the snow around. that will wind will hang on at least tomorrow's storm makes its full retreat. want we want to see how things are look being we send things out for live look at the ground to meteorologist carol erickson, live with us from the cbs-3 mobile weather lab on the garden state parkway. little closer to the main action carol? >> yes, headed north on the garden state parkway now came down route 30, also called the white horse pike in absecon and moving on up, following a truck that's salting the ground, because the temperature outside the webber hat lab right now 23 degrees, and we've got windchills even lower than. that will but at the 23 degrees temperature the light snow that we could see cont

coastal ocean and monmouth counties, the potential is there there for 40-plus miles per hour. this area shaded in pink, lancaster, reading allentown western portions of south jersey. probably route 40 in south jersey, from that point south it's more like one to two. the morning commute will be slow light to moderate snow will fall. midday it's a light snow. by the evening commute, the big question will be will the second round get going, if the answer is yes then there will be heavier snow bands developing east of the i-95 corridor and yes if this storm starts to intensify and intensifies close to the coast. these are the snowfall totals we'll be looking at with round number two possible snow. round number one there's not too many disagreements in the models with that one. allow yourself to get everything done today in case the models are on to something with this. 6 to 10 in philadelphia. and 10-plus across portions of new jersey. one of the models only has 4-point #. some over a foot. rpm is back to 2. until all these models come into agreement there's going to be a lot of u

i have to think they're looking at the al jazeera-monmouth university poll as they say that. >> across all income groups economic issues are the top concerns of american families over terrorism immigration crime, anything else, even college tuition concerns were greater than terrorism. bill schneider are you surprised? >> there hasn't been a terrorist attack directly on the united states. americans are frightened by what happened in france but they don't feel as directly threatened by terrorism than they do by the stagnant economy. that's in their face every single day. you mentioned headlines before. the washington post headline on sunday, budget proposal to target wealthy. the headline on the new york times the very same day obama seeks to reduce taxes on the middle class. that's a very mixed message there and both headlines are correct. >> another part of the memorandum message, al jazeera poll 47% of the respondents felt the government was hurting. 33% of democrats felt the government actions had hurt their economic concerns. what sort of burden does that place on president obama f

we have a blizzard warning in ocean county, money mowlt -- monmouth county and the northeast and new york city and boston. we'll have snow and whiteout conditions. from now until 6:00 we'll on and off and light to moderate snow. between # and 11:00 p.m., the steady snow starts to move in from southwest to northwest and then from 2:00 to 8:00, the heaviest precipitation comes in, it's that period where we'll be getting snow coming down at 2 inches an hour at times and piling it up. it does start to taper off in the afternoon. 30 degrees as you head out. 21 in allentown. 33 in millville. it's a bit slippery out there kids on the way to school and be careful on the way out and home in case the snow is coating your walk route. we'll get up to 32 degrees this afternoon, so temperatures are not going that far. karen, what are the roads looking like? >> reporter: the secondary roads are not in great shape. this is stump road at horsham road. the snow is coming down steadily. we have the tire marks in the roadway, we saw a car move through, we weren't seeing a lot of slipping and sliding use

snow will begin to pile up tonight but the blizzard warnings in effect for parts of ocean county monmouth counties and into long island and new england. that will get really the hit the full impact of that storm system but the ingredients are all there. it's how they come together that will determine what we get. for details on that let's head over to add cam joseph. adam. >> they have to come together perfectly at the right time overnight tonight but we do see that arctic air is in place. this wasn't here the last go round when we talked about no strong high pressure supplying cold air for a storm. this go round it is different it's only 10 in burlington, 28 in boston and philadelphia right now just 27 degrees. but that track is key as to exactly how fast this storm explodes to our east. it deepens rapidly and just how far to the east or how far to the west it will start to stall and slow down but will it be too far away from us to wrap a lot of those bands in? there is what we have to watch overnight tonight and any shift in the track will bring big changes to the forecast late tonight.

we're under blizzard warns in lakehurst, new jersey, ocean monmouth up through new york and into boston and southeastern new england. a winter weather warning for the areas of pink not just for the heavy snow we're getting but the blowing and drifting snow that's when most of the area including wildwood, millville philadelphia trenton allentown and poconos. it's an aide advisory for chester, reading delaware. those are the alerts because what well get will vary. here's what to expect today through tomorrow. from now until 6:00 p.m. the snow will be light. we'll pick up one to two inch. snow we'll pick up one more. so three overall. 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. the steady snow gets heavier. 2:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. we're talking the heaviest precipitation. that's when travel will be difficult overnight into the morning rush i'll be back inside in just a minute and david murphy will talk about the snow totalses and what to expect for the area. because the storm will produce widely vary ant totals. >>> low go back outside, sky6 live hd looking live at philadelphia international airport. there are

you can see the rain lifting through parts of ocean county and toward monmouth county but still some leftover moisture through philadelphia, south jersey and even in our suburbs to the north and west. rivers and creeks running high. in pemberton an issue along the rancocas where minor flooding is being observed at this point. >>> the streams to watch pennypack in philadelphia, christiana chester creek in chester. >>> temperatures around the region well above freezing through philadelphia, south and east. close to freezing in reading and lancaster. an town 37. the poconos 36. so everyone going below freezing overnight with some icy concerns. as this storm pull asway the difference in pressure between that storm and fair weather building in creates pressure gradient or windy conditions. so, monday temperatures will rise through the 30's but winds will be gusting to 30 miles an hour making it feel blustery and much colder. tuesday temperatures in the 30's as well and then we watch a clipper going to our south bringing a chance of a rain or wet snow shower on wednesday. that's the next c

but right now as we look at ultimate doppler the heaviest of the snow is in monmouth as well as oceany. it continues to try and pinwheel a little farther inland but a battle. we're looking at drier air as you move little farther inland and also we still have some snow on going to our south. so once this snowfall dissipates we'll see a better idea of how that snow will work itself in a little farther inn land. with that said, light snow right now in trenton also around philadelphia moving toward chester and wilmington moving into burlington county. some of that snowfall has begun. but the heaviest of the snowfall right now we're looking at seaside heights, surf city, moving down toward atlantic city city. so these bands offshore this is what we're watching for the overnight and early morning time frame so as we look at 1am, you can see we're looking at that heavier snow still a little farther to the east of philadelphia. that's really been the trend throughout this entire event. by 4am we're still looking at that snowfall moving a little farther inland toward the philadelphia area. but

where you could have significant impact and we're looking at a blizzard warning in ocean county, monmouth and new york city and new england. heavier and heavier snowfall amounts expected as you get closer to the coast. what are we expecting unfortunately nothing is set in stone as there is disagreement with models, because we expect light snow between now and 6:00 p.m., one to three with the southern clipper. 6 to 11:00 p.m. a steady snow develops from the south to the north. between 2:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. overnight tonight into tomorrow morning's mush when we're on the air -- rush, when we're on the air, that's the heaviest precipitation. it's cold enough to support snow on the ground and we're looking at chilly conditions for the school bus this morning as the kids head out. 27 by 6:00 and today's high, 32 degrees. what are you seeing on the roads. >> reporter: yesterday temperatures were well above freezing that's helping the melting itself with the crews on the roads. this guy is taking it slowly, he is not slipping or sliding we're finding issues on the ramps and secondary roads. we
