snowing and where it's cloudy and parts of lancaster and berks and lehigh valley probably won't see much at all. 7:00 the morning commute it's snowing around philadelphia and areas to the east. it winds up quickly and no blocking to slow the storm down and 5:00 a few lingering snow showers and as far as accumulation map. this is the first call map. this could change based on how that storm develops and where it tracks and calling for 3 to 6 along the coast. the same area as long the winter storm watch and 1 to 3 and get into the far northern and west communities and poconos and the

and 2 in buffalo and richmond now feeling like 26 degrees, the storm that we are watching starts to gain strength here and blossom tomorrow morning just off the coast of florida. and as you mentioned winter weather advisories and winter storm warnings in parts of florida and snow and ice expected there. it goes across the carolinas and works up the eastern seaboard and this is a powerhouse about 250 miles off our coastline. normally the low pressure center that far to the east will not bring us precipitation but this is such a beast of a storm. the precipitation shield should go as far west as philadelphia right now as we get scraped by the nor'easter and whacked by it at this point. and itnto new england and the easternts of canada. the point we really are of concern is at the shore that gets the hardest part of the storm snow possibly 3 to 6 inches there and significant travel delays for the coastal communities and winds gusting near 50 miles per hour with the storm creating blowing and drifting snow for them. but everybody should see a flake or two, we'll talk about inland locations and the cold to follow. that will be dangerous in the seven-day forecast. >> thank you.
