Yeah, weve got a concern for this morning. I want to get right to storm tracker6 live 3d. Were expecting a few showers this afternoon but a few early showers have broke out. We can see that now in central pennsylvania. The problem is you see the area of blue, theyre breaking outta time where we have temperatures below freezing. As we go in closer with storm tracker6 live double scan, this is happening out near harrisburg and gettysburg. Still not quite in our region. We had a little bit of drizzle earlier near reading. That has dissipated. What you see near trenton is ground clutter. The only precipitation is still out near harrisburg but the National Weather service has issued a freezing rain advisory for the northwest suburbs because of this light drizzle creating icy roads.

We have a Winter Weather advisory in the area thats below the white line thats cutting through Chester County and northern and western suburbs. Above that white line we wont see this expire until 1 00 p. M. This afternoon thats because we have sleet and freezing rain up until the expiration times. An example how this is affecting place and in some places that dont have the blue on the radar. This is a Twitter Photo from carl in drexel hill, thats a sheet of ice on the sidewalk. Carl goes out for runs every

Low 70s down the shore at this early hour. And as we head outside we are looking at fairly warm conditions.
