Winter Storm to Brush Philadelphia Region with Snow, Wintry Mix Expected Tuesday
PHILADELPHIA, PA – The Philadelphia region is bracing for a winter storm set to arrive Tuesday morning, bringing the first potential snowflakes of the season to parts of the area. While Philadelphia itself is likely to see a mix of rain and snow, or primarily rain, areas north and west of the city are under a Winter Storm Advisory and could experience light snow accumulations.
FOX 29’s Kathy Orr and Scott Williams report that the storm is expected to move into the region around 5 a.m., with the rain-snow line hovering near Philadelphia throughout the morning and early afternoon. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Advisory from 4 a.m. to 10 a.m. for Berks, Bucks, Chester, Montgomery, Northampton, and Lehigh counties.
“Don’t panic and rush to the grocery store,” said Orr. “This isn’t a major snow event for the city, but those further north and west will definitely see some flakes.”
Forecasters predict that areas like Reading and Lancaster could see over 2 inches of snow, while Chester and Bucks counties may experience a dusting. Rain is expected to dominate in Philadelphia and South Jersey, becoming heavy at times in the afternoon as temperatures rise into the 40s.
The storm is expected to move out of the area between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.
Looking ahead, the region can expect a few days of sunshine and seasonable temperatures in the 40s before a cold front moves in on Friday, with highs barely above freezing. Forecasters are also monitoring the potential for more winter weather on Saturday.
