Melissa well start with you and the latest accuweather. Yeah, rick and mon today the big story at least for the first half of the day was the brutally cold start to our monday. Record lows in some locations trenton and women you tied your record, one in trenton two, in wilmington. Atlantic city reading and dover new record lows today. Atlantic city 2 degrees, 1 degree below zero in reading and four was the new record low this morning there in dover. Now, temperatures certainly did not recover. In fact, in philadelphia morning low temperature coming in at 3 degrees, 1 degree shy of the record set back in 1888 making this the coldest since january 24th of 2005. So, were talking about a 10 year chill where weve seen temperatures at 3 degrees here in philadelphia. This morning it was quite cold when you factor in those blustery winds out of the northwest.

This slow going to track to the east over southeastern sections of virginia and with that we have the snow that will develop breaking out later on tonight and into tuesday from a southwest to northeast direction affecting our region. Ill bring in meteorologist adam joseph who has the latest on the timing with this storm system. Adam. Yeah, we have a few hours to get out and do errands before the snow starts to fall.

By 10 30 tonight thats when it punctures south and west of philadelphia, southern new jersey delaware, the western suburbs of philadelphia and then overspills areas near trenton by about midnight and then 6 oclock in the morning as the low is developing it pushes to the south. Thats when we see the heaviest burst of snow especially along the shore communities you see these darker colors here, the lighter the color on future tracker the less intense the snow is and this is an upside down storm for our region. Meaning that the least amount of snow is going to fall north and west of philadelphia. That is where we have Winter Weather advisories in place anywhere in the pink you can see most of southern new jersey delaware, winter storm warnings where we expect the heaviest snow to fall. Heres your time line a little more specific from southwest to northeast between eight and 11 oclock tonight the heaviest snowfall while most of us are sleeping so good news for the road crews. From 11 00 to 7 00. But during morning rush it will be snowing fairly heavily. Quickly after that sunshine will be returning. As we look at philadelphia and the four different forecast models pretty decent consensus showing anywhere between about three and 6inches from the nam to the rpm. Thats what were expecting in philadelphia, between three and six but it varies as you head north and west and south and east.

Two of his suspected accomplices were arrested today. In health check we talked a lot about protecting yourself and loved ones from the cold outdoors but there is an indoor danger, too of hypothermia when the body temperature goes below 95 degrees in a chilly room. Even room temperatures between 60 and 65 degrees can trigger hypothermia. The elderly and the very young run the highest risk. Its harder for them to stay warm especially over an extended period. However, folks with conditions like an under active thyroid arthritis and parkinsons disease are also vulnerable. Often the first sign is confusion or forgetfulness. They may not realize theyre cold. Looking in on them personally is important to check the temperature firsthand in their home. Anyone vulnerable to hypothermia should keep thermostat at least 68 degrees and wear extra layers of clothing even wear a cap or a hat inside their house.
