Discussion

A powerful nor’easter will continue to impact the Philly metro region as it rides up the eastern seaboard. Snow will mix with or change to sleet and/or freezing rain today from Route I-95 and points east, and possibly in some of the northern and western suburbs, but that is no guarantee. The precipitation will come down at varying intensities today and a thunderstorm with snow cannot be ruled out. As the low pressure center pulls by to our east later today, colder air will wrap around it and any mixed precipitation in the area will change back to all-snow as we enter the “cold conveyor belt” phase of the storm on its northwest flank. Snow will continue much of tonight before winding down creating some difficult driving conditions as we approach the Friday morning rush hour. Total snowfall accumulations in the 10-14 inch range in the city and 14-20 inches in some of the N and W suburbs. More accumulating snow is possible on Saturday.
