Changing over to sleet and freezing rain. The problem not the amounts. The problem is that this will be occurring during the tuesday evening commute. This is what to expect tomorrow morning should be fine just a little bit of a refreeze in the morning between three and 11 oclock tomorrow night this is when we get a light around philadelphia about a coating up to about 2inches across the Lehigh Valley. The problem though, is what comes after that. The ice. Up to about a tenth of an inch on top of that snow so the evening commute will be very slow on tuesday. Then it changes over to all rain on wednesday so well have some some minor issues during the day on wednesday with temperatures up into the 40s. The problem, though, a cold front along with another wave of low pressure will bring the threat of accumulating snow by thursday morning and that could cause major problems for the thursday morning commute. Ill talk more about that coming up in the full accuweather forecast. Monica. Thank y
