Meteorologist kathy orr is here now with the timing of that snow. Kathy . Yes, its moving in as we speak, iain. Were talking about six to 10inches down the shore. Its already falling fast and furious and if you look at all mat doppler you can see these stream lines coming to our storm system off the coast the mid atlantic and all of that snow filling in moving northward up the knife i corridor. Snowing in Atlantic City, millville, cape may, all of delaware and closing in on philadelphia and eventually trenton. When we look at the storm itself, it is such a large storm that its impacting obviously the whole eastern seaboard we talk about it bombing out that will happen off the coast of new england and when you say bombing out it means the pressure. The millibars associated with a deepening low pressure system are going to fall so rapidly that the storm just kind of explodes with precipitation and you can see to the north and west thats where you see heaviest snow hence in new england theyll see a couple of feet snow and possibly Hurricane Force win. We talk about bombing out a lot. But bombing psych clone, thats real tiffly new term that ive heard recently. It sound pretty good, doesnt it iain fox future cast well go hour by hour. You can see by 2 00 a. M. We see the snow moving toward philadelphia. We could see a little dry slot but dont worry that will be filling in and the snow will continue through the 9 00 oclock, 10 00 oclock, 11 00 oclock, 12 00 oclock hour and then you see this line to the west nothing as the storm pulls away from noon onward till about 4 00 p. M. Well slowly see the snow exit and when all is said and done after cleaning up, were talking about some very cold conditions so six to 10inches in our blizzard warning area. That goes from toms river Estelle Manor through cape may and southern delaware. Four to six in norristown, philadelphia, glassboro. Two to four toward the Lehigh Valley farther away from the storm. Down the shore the greatest impact wind gusts to 50 miles an hour white out conditions power outages. Hazardous travel tomorrow. Six to 10inches of snow. So after the snow, comes the brutal cold. For more on that well zen it over to scott. Thats right, kathy. Winds of change blowing in behind the system. But take look at future wind gust as we go hour by hour by tomorrow morning Tropical Storm gusts down the shore up to 39 Miles Per Hour and then by nine, 10 00 oclock, 45 Miles Per HourMiles Per Hour gusts millville and Atlantic City. So the potential is there for some power outages. But beyond that, old man winter making a drastic come back arctic blast take look at future feels like temperatures. During the day tomorrow 2 00 oclock, feeling like nine in allentown and also in trenton 11 what it will feel like in philadelphia but look at what happens by friday morning. It will feel like ten below in Atlantic City. Feeling like 30 below in mount pocono so certainly were dealing with the snow tomorrow but look at those frigid wind chills, kathy, as we move toward friday and the weekend. Unbelievable, scott. As we look ahead were talking about that cold air continuing at least through the weekend. And slowly we get out of the ice box by the beginning of next week. So overnight, low temperatures mainly in the teens and the 20s. Theyre not going to move all that much between overnight and during the day tomorrow. By the afternoon were still talking about some snow. It will be winding down and wind, winds gusting to 40 miles an hour a lot of blowing snow and on your seven day forecast just frigid friday and saturday. You wont want to go outside by sunday near record cold empty morning we see the warmup, monday, tuesday and wednesday. Boy, will 39 degrees feel good.

Kristen whats coming up in sports . Well, iain, were still days away from the College Football play off Channel National championship one school decided to take the title. My take on why College Football play off National Championship game will be played on monday between alabama and georgia. But one team has already crowned themselves the national champions. Central florida. They beat auburn in the peach bowl to cap off undefeated season which they say is enough to earn them the title. Not so fast. Ucf has accomplished a lot of great things this season. Head coach frost bound for nebraska took a team winless two years ago and made them a powerhouse in the aac. Theyre not power five school. They didnt have tough schedule this year. So they didnt make the playof playoffs. You say you want to be considered the Actual National champiochampions, work on a toun couldnt friend schedule a good start. Only Undefeated Team in College Football this season the knights are still hanging a banner. You know who else could hang a banner, troy, they beat hsu who beat auburn who beat georgia and alabama the same logic. Right, iain. I think youre right. Play a tougher schedule. All right. Get in the playoffs. Playoffs . How about check this out. This is a pool outside frozen solid but this is florida. Guy who own the home cracking and banging on that thing its not even cracking. This is in pensacola, florida. In the panel handle. The guy says when he took the video only 30 degrees out. So thats not something you hear about every day. Certainly not in the sunshine state. Umum. In florida. We may be feeling that a couple of days. Minus ten witness wind chill. Oh, my gosh. Crack that ice with a hammer. I cant it being as as its going to be. Im already thinking about that. But first we have to think of this. Six to zen inches of slow through south jersey and four to six for the philadelphia area.
