...THERE IS A CHANCE OF SOME LIGHT FREEZING RAIN EARLY THIS MORNING...

MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO
VALLEY WILL SPREAD ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE MORNING HOURS.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE IN THE
FORM OF RAIN THROUGHOUT SOUTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA AND CENTRAL NEW
JERSEY.

HOWEVER, SOME OF THE COLDER AREAS STILL HAD TEMPERATURES BELOW
FREEZING EARLY THIS MORNING. AS RAIN SPREADS INTO THE REGION, THE
TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO RISE. BUT SINCE THE RAIN COULD
ARRIVE BEFORE TEMPERATURES MOVE ABOVE FREEZING IN THE NORMALLY
COLDER AREAS, THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME FREEZING RAIN UNTIL
8 AM.

ACROSS THE LEHIGH VALLEY AND NORTHWARD INTO THE POCONOS AND
NORTHERN NEW JERSEY, FREEZING RAIN AND SNOW IS MORE LIKELY THAN IN
SOUTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA AND CENTRAL NEW JERSEY. 

THIS MORNINGS COMMUTE COULD BECOME SLIPPERY, ESPECIALLY IN THE
NORMALLY COLDER AREAS. PLEASE GIVE YOURSELF A LITTLE EXTRA TIME
TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION AND LISTEN FOR FURTHER UPDATES OR
ADVISORIES.
