Im tracy davidson. Im chris cato. First alert weather day and we want to make you ready and prepare you for todays snow and first alert weather coverage for todays forecast and the look at the preparations happening in your neighborhood right now. Bill henley and his first alert forecast. Bill, right now no snow falling in the area just cold and cloudy. It will take some time to move into the western suburbs and then philadelphia and then the pocono mountains where they are making snow in the very cold air and the snow in the mountains doing a little grooming as well. A first alert day for our area will snow that will be falling. Not only this morning, but into this afternoon. But one to two inches. Looks like that is going to happen during the Morning Hours. It is cold enough to stay on the ground even after the snow ends later today. The radar shows the snow approaching from the west its showing up on the radar, but so far no reports of snow in maryland and certainly looks like it bu
Later today. Well go through it hour by hour neighborhood by neighborhood. Right now katy zachry is in Lehigh County in emmaeus. What you got right now . Reporter hi bill the wind has died down which is nice if youre out here in the snow. Its really light flakes. Were at a gas station near the corner of 6th chestnut. Drivers tell me the roads really arent bad. Theyre wet. If we take a look out here at the street you can see that the snow is not sticking. Its really melting on contact with the pavement. If we swing the camera around you can see on some of the sidewalks over here theres a slight accumulation especially on parked cars. Youre definitely going to need to dust off your windshield because we are seeing a light snow. But it is falling. I would say we have about a half an inch on this car. And its been snowing here for about the last hour. So bill says well see half an inch, maybe a little bit more up here in the Lehigh Valley. Weve been checking in on the Road Conditions throu
The way advanced appropriations work. I support that and the frustration i have here is the billion dollars we spent. Last year about this time chairman remembers this very well, where we couldnt have an integrated Electronic Health record where the va and dod we flushed a billion dollars and still cant make it work. Thats something that i think this is my sixth year here. I cannot understand in todays technology why a veteran Service Member cant lead and electronically transfer their record. It hasnt been explained to me. It is coming down. I salute the secretary on that. He has a real commitment to that. The two things that i really am passionate about are Homeless Veterans. I think its heartbreaking when you see a veteran sleeping under a bridge that honorably served this country. We had the hud vouchers and that has come down. I salute general shinseki for that. Thats one of our problems at home. Weve got to work on a place to house Homeless Veterans and people to go ahead and get
