...A LIGHT WINTRY MIX POSSIBLE LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY 
THURSDAY MORNING...

LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO TRACK FROM THE MIDWEST ON WEDNESDAY TO 
WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA EARLY THURSDAY MORNING, THEN ACROSS OUR REGION 
DURING THE DAY THURSDAY. AS A RESULT, PRECIPITATION IS ANTICIPATED 
TO OVERSPREAD THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. INITIALLY THE AIRMASS 
WILL BE COLD AND ESPECIALLY DRY. THEREFORE, A PERIOD OF MIXED 
PRECIPITATION COULD OCCUR ACROSS THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND 
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

FOR AREAS IMMEDIATELY NORTH AND WEST OF PHILADELPHIA, THE LATEST 
FORECAST PROJECTIONS ARE THAT A BRIEF PERIOD OF SNOW COULD OCCUR. 
HOWEVER AS WARMER AIR ARRIVES ABOVE THE SURFACE, A PERIOD OF 
FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET IS THEN POSSIBLE EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. 
ENOUGH MILDER AIR SHOULD THEN OVERSPREAD THE REGION AROUND DAYBREAK 
THURSDAY, ALLOWING FOR SOME PLAIN RAIN TO FALL.

FOR AREAS FROM PHILADELPHIA SOUTH AND EAST, A LITTLE SLEET COULD 
MIX IN AT THE ONSET BEFORE ENOUGH WARMER AIR ARRIVES LATE WEDNESDAY 
NIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

THERE STILL REMAINS SOME UNCERTAINTY ON HOW MUCH COLD AIR REMAINS IN 
PLACE AND THE EXACT TRACK OF THE STORM. HOWEVER, AREAS HAVING A 
GREATER CHANCE OF A PERIOD OF FROZEN PRECIPITATION IS NORTH AND WEST 
OF THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR, ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHERN CHESTER, 
NORTHWEST MONTGOMERY AND UPPER BUCKS COUNTIES. THIS WINTRY MIX COULD 
AFFECT THE THURSDAY MORNING COMMUTE.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS, OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA 
OUTLET FOR ADDITIONAL UPDATES ON THIS LIGHT WINTRY PRECIPITATION
POTENTIAL.
