High wind warning then now only including portions of south most new jersey here, southeast burlington, atlantic, cape may counties starting 6 00 a. M. Tomorrow. So see trends here, mainly into to the morning tomorrow morning there is really gets underway. Now at the coast impacts snow eventually turns to rain. There will be some mixing, wont ends up with a whole bunch of snow, but will get impact. I will be shock if we dont see Power Outages out of this, moderate coastal flood something a concern at high tide for the morning and afternoon high tide cycles. Lets time it out. Jump to 10 00 p. M.

Notice the rain snow line, will drift to the north through the next couple of hours in the future weather. So what you will find is some sleet in philadelphia, delco, for example, new castle county, mixing in. That will help limit the totals that we end up with here, before it is all said and done. But it is just purple. Just snow. As you go further north, rather chester county, montgomery, bucks, point north of that, just snow producer.

But looking at least at a foot of snow. And now that we drop the line little further south, to include most of bucks, most of montgomery as well as chester county, little further south where you will see that line above 18. Guys might even be spots that pick up more than 18 in that purple zone. Thats how intense that snow could be. Outside kutztown area, snow left over from fews system but it will get covered up pretty quickly here thomas we again are expecting about a foot worth, out in berks county. Meanwhile, looking forward, there will be lingering snow showers as well as vicious windchill on wednesday. Yes, thats the word i use it, will feel pretty brutal.
