Its cold but weve got some showers. Weve got showers but theyre not snow showers in most of the area. Storm tracker6 live in a moment will be showing us a little better view of this but right now lots of clouds around and a lot of snow showers but pushing to the north of us; see you can see a little bit of rain popping up closer to the rain. Most of the showers off to the north and west of philadelphia. They are creeping in our direction and you can see that changeover to a little bit of mixed precipitation out by pottsville and some snow up north of the poconos but air in place pretty mild this morning and we do expect most of what were going to see this morning just to be rain showers. 42 degrees currently in philadelphia. Even up in allentown, 38 so if you did manage top to get a snowflake its going to be way too mild up there for it to stick. 35 in trenton, 42 in wilmington, 44 in millville and 48 degrees in cape may. As we roll through the day, it does stay on the mild side for aw
Well see rain and not snow across the majority of the region because temperatures are risen overnight a little bit and we are looking good in terms terms of ice. There you see a bit of cloud cover. Snow shower activity up north of philadelphia. Storm tracker6 live double scan shows that you what we have locally is mostly rain. You see a little line of it now pushing through pottsville and pushing up into reading into the northern suburbs. Hazelton still picking up the rain. Theres a changeover to snow up by the poconos of course and if i go ahead and bring this down to the wide view after this loop you can see that even farther south, yes, some rain down around dover, popping into parts of south jersey. Notice how the rain in most cases is light green and thats Storm Tracker6s way of showing you precipitation that is on the very light side so nuisance rain around this morning as karen mentioned. Sometimes that gives us problems so slow it down. 39 in allentown, 38 in reading, 35 in tre
Pottsville and the poconos to see that changeover to snow around here and air remaining mild through the morning. Colder air will rush in later this afternoon so its possible allentown gets a brief snow shower later on today. But generally speaking its rain right now and all light you see that lighter shade of green. That really isnt all that significant rain. 43 degrees in philadelphia right now. Even up in allentown 39 degrees so no chance avenue freezeup there. 38 in lancaster. 46 in millville, 49 degrees in cape may. We are going to experience some changes today. The majority of the morning and afternoon will be mild. By 3 oclock, still about 46 degrees coming down from a high of 47. But look how quickly the numbers drop. By 7 oclock i think we could be close to the freezing mark and then that cold air continues to rush in overnight and continues to make us very uncomfortable especially with winds on the rise. For this morning maybe a sprinkle on the bus stop. But temperatures are
Precipitation right now.

Storm tracker6 live double scan shows you just some light showers and sprinkles that appear to be breaking apart as they cross the delaware bay and were you shall into parts of south jersey around dover. Organized material down by baltimore but whether or not that can maintain that sort of widespread formation as it pushes up into places like Chester County is a bit of a question and i will point out that way up north and out to the northwest thats where you get the changeover to snow but temperatures in our neck of the woods are too mild for that this morning. For example, in allentown, were still at 39 degrees, well above freezing. 35 in trenton a little cooler there. 43 in philadelphia, 42 in wilmington and 45
