Comes that precipitation as it works its way in overnight from the west noun pushing all the way over to the east. Want to give you a look at Storm Tracker6 live double scan and well show you exactly where this line s the western suburbs are looking at snow. Some of it highlighted in Brighter Shades of gray up in allentown and back to the west of reading. Still fairly significant snow and you are putting some accumulation down there at least several inches maybe a little more in some spots that. Darker shade of gray in Chester County is the lighter snow but even there some accumulation on roads and in philadelphia you can see how were getting very close now to that changeover from rain to snow. This is pretty much what we expected and it doesnt look like its going to be a big accumulation in philadelphia by any stretch but right now we do have some icy patches developing. One was actually in our parking lot outside as i stepped out of my vehicle a little while ago. Do be careful of that across the region. Officially at Philadelphia International airport were still above freezing. 35 degrees. Wilmingtons pretty close. Remember, when you get these numbers close to freezing there can always be spots in between the reporting station that is have sunk below the freezing mark and you want to be careful out there. Im seeing a lot of salt trucks around the region. Karen will talk more about that in a moment. Still 34 in trenton. Well above freezing in millville and down through the heart of delaware toward dover and those places youre still looking at rain. Were going to see temperatures drop closer to the freezing mark for most of the afternoon. I can see this coming up maybe a couple degrees above freezing around noon but then probably sliding back into the low 30s or upper 20s later in the day. So this is one of those days where the precipitation is probably going to be over fairly quickly after the rush hour. But anything that hasnt been treated and doesnt completely dry out could freeze up again in these areas and by the way that Winter Weather advisory is still in place. It will gradually be expiring probably between about 7 oclock and noon depending on where you are. Its a warning up in the poconos where things are a little bit worse. Karen rogers are we seeing any issues on roads yet. Were seeing a few issues on the roads. As we look live this is bucks county and you can see the snowfall coming down under the street light. For the most part the roads are wet. This is here on doylestown road at county line road but as temperatures are dropping could become more slick so you need to be careful as youre heading out. You can see some of the slush kind of sticking to the roads right now. So, as that snow comes down here in bucks county, northeast extension overnight we had a big accident and now they have reduced speeds here. Northeast extension in both directions between midcounty and Lehigh Valley, 45 miles an hour speed restrictions because the farther north you go the slipperier it gets more slip regent you know re. You know what im trying to say. This is forest road at valley view road. A problem with an accident in towamencin township. A vehicle slid into a pole. Be careful in situations like that. We showed you the snow in bucks county but its just rain right now and route 42 in south jersey but as temperatures drop well have to watch the Road Conditions carefully matt. Will do. Lets head to an area thats expecting higher accumulations from this. Trish hartman is live in Whitehall Township near allentown. Good morning, trish. Reporter good morning, matt. Yeah, the snow is coming down here. You can see these nice big light fluffy flakes are falling here. Were along macarthur road in Whitehall Township. Well give you a live look at the road here. Not so many issues right now. Traffic is moving along. Of course theres not many cars out here on the road but we will see it pick up a little bit as the morning moves on. The snow is starting to sting its mostly wet and slushy right now but again we checked in with Lehigh County Communications Just a short time ago and they are not seeing any issues on the roads just yet and theyre hoping it stays that way. We have seen a number of salt trucks in our travels this morning on our drive up here. Started as rain but once we got onthe to northeast extension we did see that precipitation change over to snow. We see a little bit of snow starting to stick on the roadways right now and mostly just wet and slushy put the snow is coming down nice big fluffy flakes here so well continue to monitor the conditions. Trish hartman live for channel6 action news. Tam. Trish, now lets switch over to action News Reporter Jeanette Reyes. She is live in roxborough with a look at the city. Good morning, jeanette. Reporter good morning, tam. Right now were not seeing too much of an issue. Philadelphia isnt expecting as much is trish is expected over there near allentown. Take a live look here. I want to show you this tree. Trish mentioned and i know karen mentioned this as well it will be mostly wet. There are quite a few salt trucks that weve seen driving around treating the roads. The sidewalks might present a problem. If anything, you can see its already starting to stick and accumulate on the sidewalk. Its making for somewhat slippery conditions but we are on ridge avenue and cinnaminson street in roxborough. We saw the precipitation transition to snow around 3 oclock this morning. Were expecting less than an inch in the philadelphia area but its the timing that may cause some issues probably on the road. We are expecting the bulk of it during the height of the morning hour for most of the area though it will end by mid to late morning. So, as we usually say just take precaution. You dont have to give yourself a ton of time this morning but certainly just be careful of those slick spots. You might run into some icy spots here and there. Reporting live in roxborough, Jeanette Reyes channel6 action news. Thank you jeanette. From drone6 here you can see the ice jam on the Delaware River near the trenton makes bridge. The clogged river caused flooding in lower makefield township but was able to flow much better yesterday. Looks kind of pretty, doesnt it . Reporter chopper6 navigated as an ice breaker tried to break up some of the ice chunks and clear a passage for shipping traffic. A nasty collision in Monroe Township Montgomery County injured four people. Two cars collided head on at 7 30 last night on game farm road near mill road. Investigators are trying to figure out why they crashed and who is to blame. The. The woman who fell on the broad street subway tracks has an incredible story of survival s Authorities Say the train passed directly over the 35yearold woman without striking her. This happened northbound at the allegheny avenue station yesterday afternoon. That woman is now recovering at Temple University hospital. Pretty amazing. It is. No kidding. Some people started out with rain. Yeah. And theyre starting to see snow. Yeah and its moving in from the west. Even philadelphia will change over at least briefly. Storm tracker6 live double scan right now shows you that its about an even split between rain and snow and if i go a little bit two dimensional for you you can clearly see on Storm Tracker6 live double scan the areas that are getting this and as we go in close its a real close call in philadelphia. Weve got rain right now but temperatures in some cases away from official reporting stations have dipped closer to the freezing mark and some nontreated surfaces might be icing up even where you see the green and of course you dont have to go too far off to the north and west to catch that changeover to blue and the snow that you see here with temperatures cooling down over the next hour or two are going to wind up supporting the changeover to snow in philadelphia and the i95 corridor. Right now its fairly light to moderate snow in norristown malvern and up to pottstown but every now and then you see a little Brighter Shade of white and that would be where there is a heavier cell here or there. Looks like theres a little quick hit right around bali and macungie near the berks county, Lehigh County border. Also seeing a little bit of this stuff thats slightly brighter white so somewhat steady snow there and up in the Lehigh Valley between easton bethlehem and allentown you see that Brighter Shade. This is steadier snow thats falling and in fact, the farther east you move through the Lehigh Valley, especially into bethlehem and then easton, the higher the snowfall amounts wind up being and in a moment well talk more about where we think were going to wind up more or less at the end of all of this. Wont be that much accumulation in philadelphia but the farther you step up to the northern and western suburbs we expect this to get more significant. This is going to be out of here a little bit after the rush hour this morning. As we take a lookhave a wet phia International Airport and maybe a little bit icy here or there where they havent treated but anything that has been treated should be doing pretty well officially at the airport the temperature is still above freezing. In fact here it is. We have slipped from 35 to 34 and we do expect the numbers to drop a little bit as we go through the morning and then hold closer to the freezing mark later today. But for now were still at 34. Winds 10 miles per hour. A wind chill currently making it feel like its 26. Current temperatures across the region, though, show you below freezing numbers offer to the northwest and close to it in wilmington philadelphia and trenton. Not as much of a problem down south where we wont see that much changeover to snow. Between now up until about 8 oclock we do see that colder air come in. You see the changeover to snow across most of the region but theres also a breakup in the northern and western suburbs as soon as 8 oclock and we do expect this to clear the area fairly quickly by about 10, 11 oclock it should be pretty much gone and later today we might even see some sunshine breaking back especially out in the northern and western suburbs. Heres our forecast snow map and the reason im still showing you this is because the last snowfall reports were getting are from hours ago and not all that helpful but i do expect somewhere in the two to 4inch range up in here more in the poconos and probably one or two in the northern and western suburbs. Notice how we have knocked philadelphia and the the immediate 95 area to a coating to an inch. Temperatures maybe go back up to 34 by noon but generally speaking were going to be down close to the freezing mark or below it most of the day today. Your exclusive accuweather 7day forecast, today weve got the morning snow mixing with rain. A lot of that rain changing over to snow at the tail end of this and then it clears out later this morning and afternoon sun is possible for at least some of us. Ill go with a daytime high of 34.

And you can kind of see i think especially under the street light there snowing coming down steadily right now on 202 near the schuylkill. Be careful as youre heading out. Were seeing that changeover as you get closer to the city from rain to snow and of course its all snow the farther north and west you go so as a general rule this morning the farther north and west you go youll be dealing with icy conditions so you need to be careful but we just saw that truck move by kind of cautiously but fine at this point in pain, Montgomery County on 202. Heres a live look at the vine street expressway closer to the city were in the process of seeing that changeover from rain to snow so could be a little slick on some of the surfaces and we do have an accident thats new in Chester County coming in to us.

Two problems going on out there right now. Storm tracker6 live double scan showing us that we have more pronounced snow as you go farther north and west right in the city were in the process of seeing that changeover. In delaware its snow. In south jersey its rain. We go in a little closer to that and you can see the Brighter Shades of white near allentown and pottstown where its really coming down right now.
