Murphy at to talk about this accuweather and karen rogers helping you out with that slushy commute. A lot of places the highways look just wet but there are slick spots here and there. There certainly are. Parking lots, sidewalks, too, be careful. Satellite shows you a lot of cloud cover. The snow building in. Started raining in philadelphia overnight but its changed over to snow. Storm tracker6 live double scan gives you the close up view. There are breaks outside of philadelphia and now into parts of delaware and south jersey and the snow thats falling is in that darker shade of gray for the most part in and around 95. Getting a little brighter white just to the east and then up to the north and west of allentown theres that Brighter Shade. Thats one last band of heavier accumulating snow that will still pop through and getting pretty close to reading but all of this is expected to clear on out of here probably between eight, 10 oclock. Maybe a few lingering snow showers by about 10 and then after that, we deal with cold temperatures the rest of the way. Right now were at 34 degrees in philadelphia, wilmington is one of the spots that has dipped to the freezing mark so as karen mentioned, we could be anywhere along the i95 corridor seeing pockets where that colder air is moving in and you could get that slippery spot. Kind of messy in through here and then weve had more snow the farther you step up to the north and western suburbs. Roads may even be worse up here. Karen will be along in a minute to tell us more about that. Right now temperatures below freezing in allentown reading and lancaster. 34 in millville, 37 in a. C. Where it is basically rain so far. As we take a look at temperatures today, there is a chance that at somewhere say around lunchtime we bump up to maybe 33 degrees above freezing a little bit but i like this idea in the model that a good portion of the day we are close to the freezing mark and that means that even though we expect this precipitation to knock off fairly quickly this morning, anything that doesnt dry out as those temperatures continue to fall could freeze up so even later today youll have to be careful on places that havent been treated. All right, karen, youve got the stage. Whats going on on the roads . Lets show you what it looks like out here. Its still falling snow, snow is falling lightly on the schuylkill expressway. The main highways that have been treated are mostly just wet. We have a few problems out here. Weve got a disabled vehicle a tractortrailer kind of off to the side on the schuylkill westbound at vare avenue. So, people dont seem to be doing a lot of slipping or sliding. The main roads look just wet but were seeing a slick spot or two as you travel around. Switching your camera view well check out i95 southbound. Weve had that offramp partially blocked due to a disabled tractortrailer there and we can still see it here and this is one of those shots here. This is the offramp to allegheny where you see a little bit more of that snow coming down under the headlights there. Were seeing heavy traffic, already a 30minute jam. We already had an accident on i95 southbound near girard. Thats cleared. Now just a disabled tractortrailer off to the side but some heavier traffic as people traveling slowly, and you should, because it could be slick in some spots. One of the places its icy is farther north and west. In perkasie bucks county one of my twitter followers brian reed shared this picture cause we look at the highways, they look pretty good but this is what the secondary roads look like. Theyre completely snow covered out there so you got to take it easy and in one of these areas we do have a new accident. Its in quakertown here on california road at dick erode an accident where a vehicle slid into a pole. Its our second accident of the morning where a vehicle slid into a pole. Heres a live look in new jersey where we have some light snow falling on route 42 not that far from here in Gloucester County we have a vehicle flipped over, overturned vehicle on 295 and northbound the offramp to 130 so be careful as youre traveling. Keep the speeds down, matt. Will do. Thank you, karen. Snow is accumulate and schools are closing in the lawful. Action Lehigh Valley. Trish hartman joins us live. Reporter good morning matt. Its still coming down and the roads are looking a little bit better. Its been on and off throughout the day. Well show you this is macarthur road here in Whitehall Township in Lehigh County and the road looks wet right now. Its also a little slushy. The snow has been sticking on and off. People appear to be taking it nice and slow. Weve seen a lot of plow trucks. Lets take a look at video we shot earlier this morning. Plow trucks and salt crews have been coming through treating the roads. The sidewalks here are looking pretty good but farther down we are seeing some snow covered sidewalks so it really depends on how much salt was put down i think like karen mentioned the temperatures are below freezing so there are slick spots here. The conditions are bad enough that there are a number of School Closings and delays in this area. Allentown schools are closed today as well as whitehall schools are closed today and again, a number of schools are on a twohour delay so you want to check 6abc. Com to see if your schools are closed or delayed. Traffic is moving right along here. Again, wet roads, slushy roads are what we are seeing at this moment. Officials encouraging you to take your time as you head out to work this morning here in the Lehigh Valley. Reporting live in Whitehall Township, Lehigh County, Trish Hartman channel6 action news. All right, thank you, trish. Now were going to go over to pottstown to high street. Thats where we find mobile6 and it looks ciliare to what trish was showing where weve got a mix of precipitation but we see a little accumulation in the median and the side of the roads but the streets themselves while they were wet and could be a little bit icy theyre passable and we see a mix of rain and ice and snow coming down on that windshield. Action News ReporterJeanette Reyes is live in roxborough way look at conditions here in the city. Goodgood morning, jeanette. Reporter good morning, matt. One of the things tam, rather. One of the things ive seen on cars is snow on the course, the windshields and last times theyre not cleaned off. Its hard to imagine how someone can see through a little hole in the windshield so make sure you clean off your windshield especially the back. Take a look here. This is what youll find accumulating on your vehicle this morning. Its fairly easy to clean off. On the sidewalk it will be pretty slick, though. The roads they look really good. They did a great job treating this although a little treating goes a long way. The snow isnt really causing much of an issue on the roadways. I suspect that will be the case even on those side streets. It started switching over to the snow from rain about at about 3 15 this morning. The snow totals are expected to be much less than what, for example, trish would see over in allentown, less than an inch in the philadelphia area but its the timing that could cause a little bit of a problem. The bulk of it will be coming down really at the height of the morning rush hour and it will start to taper down towards the mid to late morning so just give yourself some time on those sidewalks especially take it slowly it will be pretty slick out but nothing a little slow walking wont handle. Reporting live in roxborough, Jeanette Reyes channel6 action news. Thank you, jeanette. A womans close call on the citys hunting park section could have been much worse. She fell onto the broad street subway tracks yesterday afternoon. Authorities say the train passed directly over the 35yearold woman without striking her. This happened northbound at the allegheny avenue station and caused some delays. The woman is recovering at Temple University hospital. Philadelphia police are making sure theyre ready for any problems ahead of the eagles nfc championship game on sunday. The intersection of frankford and cottman avenue in mayfair is often the Gathering Place for many sports celebrations but police are urging bar owners to use only plastic containers. Theyve asked businesses to remove anything thats outside like signs and trash cans and to make sure to lock their store front grates after closing. Hopefully they will behave. Its one of those late games. Its a lot of time beforehand. Yeah. It would be nice if everybody just behaves. Most people are just going to have fun with this. Lets make it everybody. Storm tracker6 live double scan right now and we are looking the and rain line continuing to move farther and farther to the east. The overhead view shows that you a good portion of Burlington County and all of camden and Gloucester County now covered by snow. And while the accumulations probably wont be all that great in philadelphia and parts of south jersey, were still looking at slippery Road Conditions and just enough to make things a little bit slick in the i95 corridor. Especially where it hasnt been treated. The farther you step up into the northern suburbs the more snow youve seen. Theres two or 3inches on the ground in a lot of areas in the north and west and this slightly heavier band highlighted in Brighter Shades of white still on the way in and potentially sweeping through adding a little bit more accumulation in places like allentown, easton and pottstown, reading already picking up a little bit of that steadier snow. We expect all of this to push to the east probably by about eight to 10 oclock this morning. Even by 9 oclock, most areas are going to be in a lot better shape and some of these folks down by the shore that are seeing rain might briefly change over to snow and then after that its cold and windy. But between now and then you do want to take it slow on the roads put a lot of room between you and the car in front of you. Karen will be back with road indications. Main roads in pretty good shape because they have been well treated before all of this changed over and 95 looks like its doing fine but some of those side streets and sidewalks could give you trouble. 34 degrees right now in philadelphia. A little bit above freezing officially but close by there are other spots that are below freezing and keep in mind that cooler air is rushing in from the north and west and this number could drop pretty quickly as we go through the next couple of hours. Winds northnorthwest at 8 miles per hour. Wind chill making it feel like its 27. Bundle up a little bit. Were down below freezing in allentown and lancaster. Weve dropped to 32 in wilmington and close to that in trenton. Again, all of these areas up here, thats where your main slippery roads are, especially the farther you move through the northern and western suburbs and that snow pushing out of here a little bit later this morning, then hopefully things get better. Heres future tracker6 showing you the take on that. Between now and 8 00 it does look like we continue to see that rain line change over to snow closer and closer to places like lakehurst, new jersey. At the same time by 8 oclock its possible that youre starting to break up a little bit in the northern and western suburbs. And then by about i would say 9, 10 oclock most of this is gone, just a lingering snow shower after. That later today we might even see the clouds thin out and get a little sun back in. We havent got a whole lot of snowfall reports just yet. Back at 3 30 in the morning, areas of north of allentown like North Catasauqua were showing about 2inches. Its more than that now. We expect that two to 4inch range up there, probably one to two in the immediate suburbs. Not a big snowfall but of course with the commute getting under way right now its not a great time to still have some of that light to moderate snow falling. Temperatures today even after the snow gets out of here 9, 10 oclock are still going to be close to freezing. Theres a chance we pop up to about 34 by noon but i think most of the day were down closer to the freezing mark and these are the philadelphia numbers and those northern and western suburbs it will probably be on or about freezing or a little below the rest of the afternoon. That means that even after the snow goes away anything that doesnt dry as those temperatures drop could freeze up on you. 34 is the high today, though. Sliding down into the well, closer to the freezing mark for most of the day and that snow and rain tapering off between 8 oclock and 10 oclock in general. On thursday, sunny brisk and cold a high of 37. But then we get on the other side of this cold snap. On friday afternoon, its 43, little better. 51 under the sun on saturday and sunday for the eagles clouds giving way to some sun, a high of 50 for tailgaters in the afternoon and probably a game Time Temperature around 45 the way things are looking right now. Really nice night for football especially this late in january. And im feeling so good about the eagles, i really am. Its going to be a tough game but whew, monday afternoon 56 and some rain arriving. Eagles fans they deserve a game where they dont have to sit there and like freeze to death. [laughter] we deserve a super bowl. We do, that, too. Come on. Thanks, david. 6 12 and still ahead on action news, a meteor in michigan so powerful they could feel it.

You can kind of see it right here on i95. This is the southbound off ramp to allegheny. Heavy traffic here. We still have a disabled tractortrailer. The accident is cleared but traffic is jammed. Were going to take you to north wales, show you what it looks like there coming up. Welcome back.

Its your time. And in my big time im going to tell you some traffic. I feel like i should be doing something more luxurious. Horsham road looking live this morning in north wales. Youre waking up, were seeing the snowfall coming across the roadway here but the main roads itself, even upper state road mostly just wet. You just want to watch for a slick spot or two when youre around the area. I was talking to police a second ago calling around and in Chester County they were telling me, well, you know, the main roads are wet, secondary roads are snowy and slippery and i said that pretty much sums up what weve been telling people. Heres a look in Chester County and my twitter follower scott walsh shared this picture with me and you can kind of see how the secondary roads have snow on them although the main roads are looking mostly just wet. Slow it down. I talked to police in Gloucester County about this accident involving an overturned vehicle west deptford 295 northbound the offramp to 130. They just cleared that accident scene. They said its pretty quiet out there right now but weve got a problem here with downed wires. Route 100 is closed near adams road so stick to kennett pike as your alternate. Speeds are most in good shape i95 has been the slowest highway so far, so take it easy as youre traveling. We had an accident, had an disabled vehicle. The accident cleared but still some residual slowing. Heres what it looks like on storm tracker6 live double scan. We can see the Brighter Shades of white the farther north and west you go. Thats where its snowier, near allentown and reading youre getting some of that. Closer to the city itself right now were seeing in philadelphia along the i95 corridor its changed to snow and now even in interior south jersey, you can see in many areas its snowy. Still a little icy near berlin and glassboro, matt and tam. Thank you, karen. New this morning, a flash of bright light followed by a boom filled the night skies over parts of michigan.
