STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE UP THE EAST COAST THIS

BECOMING TREACHEROUS FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING COMMUTE AND 
THROUGH TONIGHT AS THE SUN'S EFFECTS LESSEN AND TEMPERATURES COOL. 
IT IS BEST TO AVOID TRAVEL UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. ROAD 
SURFACES WILL BECOME SLIPPERY AND VISIBILITIES WILL BE REDUCED IN 
AREAS OF HEAVY SNOW. IF YOU MUST TRAVEL, SLOW DOWN AND ALLOW PLENTY 
OF TIME TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION.

...WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH TONIGHT...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY NEW JERSEY CONTINUES THE 
WINTER STORM WARNING FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE UP THE EAST COAST THIS 
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. A LARGE AREA OF PRECIPITATION WILL OVERSPREAD 
THE REGION FROM SOUTH TO NORTH THROUGH MIDDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL 
REMAIN COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ALL SNOW INITIALLY, AND THE SNOW WILL 
BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER, AS THE 
STORM COMES UP THE COAST LATER TODAY INTO TONIGHT, THE SNOW IS 
EXPECTED TO MIX WITH SLEET. IF A WINTRY MIX DOES OCCUR, IT WILL 
CHANGE BACK TO SOME SNOW TONIGHT AS COLDER AIR WRAPS IN BEHIND THE 
STRONG STORM SYSTEM.

AT THIS TIME, SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 4 TO 8 INCHES ARE EXPECTED THIS 
AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT, WITH AN ADDITIONAL LIGHT ACCUMULATION 
POSSIBLE TUESDAY. DURING TIMES OF HEAVY SNOW, THE SNOW COULD FALL AT 
A RATE OF AN INCH PER HOUR. THERE STILL REMAINS SOME UNCERTAINTY AS 
TO THE EXACT TRACK OF THE LOW AS IT MOVES BY, AND JUST HOW MUCH 
MILDER AIR GETS PULLED INLAND AS THE STORM NEARS. THIS WILL GREATLY 
INFLUENCE THE AMOUNT OF SNOW THAT OCCURS.

TRAVELING CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, 
BECOMING TREACHEROUS FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING COMMUTE AND 
THROUGH TONIGHT AS THE SUN'S EFFECTS LESSEN AND TEMPERATURES COOL. 
IT IS BEST TO AVOID TRAVEL UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. ROAD 
SURFACES WILL BECOME SLIPPERY AND VISIBILITIES WILL BE REDUCED IN 
AREAS OF HEAVY SNOW. IF THE SNOW DOES MIX WITH SLEET, THEN ROADS 
WILL BECOME SOMEWHAT SLUSHY LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO TONIGHT. 
IF YOU MUST TRAVEL, SLOW DOWN AND ALLOW PLENTY OF TIME TO REACH YOUR 
DESTINATION.
