SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT - WINTER WEATHER OUTLOOK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
410 AM EST SAT FEB 8 2003

...ANOTHER ACCUMULATING SNOW APPEARS LIKELY FOR SUNDAY NIGHT AND 
MONDAY...

THE REGION SHOULD HAVE ANOTHER ACCUMULATING SNOW COME SUNDAY NIGHT 
AND MONDAY. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ON THE GULF 
COAST ON SUNDAY AND MOVE QUICKLY EXITING THE EASTERN SEABOARD ON 
MONDAY. MEANWHILE A COLD FRONT FROM THE GREAT LAKES WILL ALSO 
APPROACH THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC STATES ON MONDAY. 

HOW THESE TWO SEPARATE SYSTEMS INTERACT WILL DETERMINE PRECIPITATION 
AMOUNTS. ONCE AGAIN IT APPEARS THAT IT WILL BE COLD ENOUGH FOR 
PRECIPITATION TO FALL MAINLY AS SNOW. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT 
SOME RAIN COULD MIX IN ACROSS THE DELMARVA AND SOUTHEASTERN NEW 
JERSEY.

THE SOUTHERN LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO MOVE RATHER QUICKLY. 
USUALLY THIS MEANS A LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW EVENT EVEN WITH A 
FAVORABLE FOR SNOW STORM TRACK. BUT AS THE PREVIOUS EVENT SHOWED 
US...A VIGOROUS JET STREAM CAN ENHANCE PRECIPITATION INTENSITIES. 
THERE WILL BE ANOTHER STRONG JET STREAM AGAIN...BUT THERE IS 
UNCERTAINTY AT THIS JUNCTURE AS TO WHETHER OR NOT IT WILL BE LOCATED 
OVER OUR AREA.    

PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR FURTHER UPDATES AND INFORMATION AS THE WEEKEND 
PROGRESSES. TRAVEL MIGHT BE DIFFICULT AGAIN ON MONDAY.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO...YOUR LOCAL RADIO OR TELEVISION 
STATIONS...OR YOUR CABLE TELEVISION OUTLET FOR FURTHER DETAILS OR 
UPDATES. ADDITIONAL WEATHER INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND ON THE INTERNET 
AT WWW.ERH.NOAA.GOV/PHI IN SMALL LETTERS.
