...SNOW SHOWERS AND ISOLATED SNOW SQUALLS CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA...

AN AREA OF FLURRIES CONTAINING SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED SNOW SQUALLS, WHICH WAS EMANATING FROM THE GREAT LAKES,
WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT LOCATIONS FROM THE SOUTHERN POCONOS, THE
LEHIGH VALLEY AND FAR NORTHWESTERN NEW JERSEY DOWN TO THE FAR
NORTHERN SUBURBS OF PHILADELPHIA AND NORTH CENTRAL NEW JERSEY,
INCLUDING THE NORTHERN NEW JERSEY SHORE, INTO LATE AFTERNOON.

THE VISIBILITY WILL DROP MARKEDLY OVER SHORT DISTANCES IN AND
AROUND THE SNOW SHOWERS AND SNOW SQUALLS. WITHIN THE HEAVIER
SNOW, WHICH SHOULD BE TRANSIENT AT ANY SPECIFIC LOCATION, THE
VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED BELOW ONE-HALF MILE. GUSTY WINDS WILL 
ALSO TEND TO LIMIT THE LOCAL VISIBILITY IN AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW.
AROUND AN INCH OF ACCUMULATION, MAINLY ON GRASSY SURFACES AWAY
FROM THE HIGHER ELEVATION OF THE SOUTHERN POCONOS AND FAR
NORTHWEST NEW JERSEY, IS POSSIBLE IN SNOW SQUALLS. 

IF YOU ARE TRAVELING AND ENCOUNTER A SNOW SHOWER OR SNOW SQUALL, 
USE EXTRA CAUTION AS THE VISIBILITY WILL DROP AND BRIDGES,
OVERPASSES AND UNTREATED ROADS WILL BE SLIPPERY.
