...SOME WINTER WEATHER IS EXPECTED SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY...

LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS EARLY THIS MORNING IS FORECAST 
TO MOVE INTO THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY ON SATURDAY AND THEN TRANSFER 
ENERGY TO A SECONDARY LOW OFF THE NORTHERN MID ATLANTIC COAST. THE 
SYSTEM LIKELY WILL BRING PRECIPITATION TO THE REGION SATURDAY INTO 
EARLY SUNDAY. THIS TIME PERIOD INCLUDES NEW YEAR'S EVE NIGHT.
 
AT THE PRESENT TIME, THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO FALL MAINLY AS 
SNOW OVER THE SOUTHERN POCONOS AND FAR NORTHWEST NEW JERSEY. MIXED 
PRECIPITATION CHANGING TO SNOW IS EXPECTED OVER MOST OF SOUTHEAST
PENNSYLVANIA AND OVER THE REMAINDER OF NEW JERSEY NORTHWEST OF THE 
INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR. FOR NORTHEAST MARYLAND, NEW JERSEY NEAR THE 
INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR, AND THE IMMEDIATE PHILADELPHIA METRO AREA OF 
PENNSYLVANIA, RAIN ENDING AS A PERIOD OF WET SNOW IS FORECAST.

IT DOES NOT APPEAR THAT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS FROM THIS EVENT WOULD 
WARRANT A WINTER STORM WARNING. HOWEVER, PEOPLE IN THE REGION 
SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO SUBSEQUENT FORECASTS, ESPECIALLY INSOFAR AS 
MANY PLAN TO BE OUT DURING THE EXPECTED TIME OF THE EVENT. STAY 
TUNED TO LOCAL MEDIA OR NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS FOR THE 
LATEST INFORMATION ON THE APPROACHING SYSTEM. THE LATEST WEATHER 
INFORMATION ALSO IS AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET AT 
WWW.WEATHER.GOV/ER/PHI.
