Our big system, this is the the low pressure system that brought the the know to us and, three or 4 inches through much of south jersey, one to two through if philadelphia, and a couple of spots in south jersey pick up 5 inches. Very hard to measure this snow, however because of the way it is blowing around. You can have a completely bear spot and then next to it weve got piles from that bear spot. It is very hard to measure this one. The boston though is measuring it in feet, not inches. So theaves got the worst of it. We are looking for this Winter Weather advisory to stay until 11 00 this morning. Blowing snow drifting snow youll think it is snowing. It the is not. It is being kick up. High wind warning for wind anywhere between 50 and 60 miles an hour that goes until 2 00 this afternoon. This is the most windy time from now, right up until 2 00 this afternoon. Everybody is involved in that high win warning in our area a wind chill advisory that runs from this evening, or this afternoon, 4 00 p. M. Until tomorrow morning at 11 00 a. M. And appropriately in that chilly shade of blue because it will be cold around here. Weve got dangerous wind chills. Minus ten to minus 20 and minus five. You get the idea. It is way below zero. Now, monday morning, could be the coldest february temperature that we have had since 1996. The the record is two. That was last set in 1888. We are likely to be down to one or zero with wind chills a as low as a minus 15. Very, very cold. I say that this might not be the coldest weather we have had coming up this week. If you can even stand it i cant either thursday and friday could be the coldest weather of this winter owe far. So this is an ugly taste of winter. We have another fight to take at the end of the week. The there is obviously with the high wind some things you need to Pay Attention to wind gusting to 50 to 60 miles an hour, as i said charge any cell phones that youve got and that sort of thing just in case your power goes out. Hopefully there are no Power Outages. There are scattered ones around but at this point not that much but be on the safe side. Code blue, pets in for sure. Check the pipes that unused bathroom or area that gets sort of exposed to all that wind. The just make sure you have enough going on you are not ending up with frozen pipes as well out of this. Now, this moves away, we will get clear skies around here. I want to show you monday looks okay. The just really cold. Tuesday though we will start to bring this snow in. This is 2 00 a. M. Subject to change timewise but lets say right around dawn or a little bit earlier we will start to see this snow coming in here on tuesday and it moves on out of here by midday it should be wrapping up and gone. That sort of thing. So amount at this point, i dont, you know, one to three. I dont know. Way too early to tell. But we have some snow coming on tuesday and then maybe gannon wednesday. 16 degrees. 55 miles an hour wind today. Zero tonight. Not another number to put in front of. That then by tomorrow 18, feeling like minus 20 in the morning. Look at the thursday night temperature though, two. It could be lower than that. That thursday, friday incredibly cold as well.
