A WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 AM ON
WEDNESDAY. 

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE EXTENDED FROM THE GREAT PLAINS TO THE 
SOUTHEASTERN STATES THIS AFTERNOON. THE LOW WILL BUILD TO THE EAST 
AND NORTH AND ITS CENTER SHOULD BECOME BETTER DEFINED OVER THE 
EASTERN GREAT LAKES REGION ON WEDNESDAY. A SECONDARY LOW IS FORECAST 
TO DEVELOP ALONG THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC COAST AT THAT TIME. BOTH LOWS 
ARE THEN EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHEASTWARD, REACHING ATLANTIC CANADA ON

PRECIPITATION WAS SPREADING UP INTO EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND 
NORTHERN NEW JERSEY THIS AFTERNOON. WITH TEMPERATURES RANGING MAINLY 
IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 30S IN OUR REGION, THE PRECIPITATION WAS 
MOSTLY A MIX OF LIGHT RAIN, SLEET AND SNOW.

THE MIXED PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO BECOME FREEZING RAIN FOR THIS 
EVENING AS TEMPERATURES DROP BY A COUPLE OF DEGREES AFTER DARK. 
BEFORE THE CHANGE TO FREEZING RAIN, LITTLE SNOW AND SLEET 
ACCUMULATION IS ANTICIPATED.

DURING THE NIGHT, WARM AIR WILL SLOWLY BUILD UP INTO THE REGION 
AND TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY RISE ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK, 
CHANGING THE FREEZING RAIN TO RAIN FROM SOUTH TO NORTH. HOWEVER, 
SOME LOCATIONS IN BERKS COUNTY, UPPER MONTGOMERY COUNTY, UPPER BUCKS 
COUNTY, AND IN THE NORTHERN PARTS OF HUNTERDON COUNTY AND SOMERSET 
COUNTY ALONG THE INTERSTATE 78 CORRIDOR, COULD REMAIN BELOW FREEZING 
INTO THE EARLY PART OF WEDNESDAY MORNING'S COMMUTE.

AFTER DAYBREAK ON WEDNESDAY, ALMOST ALL LOCATIONS IN THE 
PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES OF BERKS, CHESTER, MONTGOMERY AND BUCKS, AND 
IN THE NEW JERSEY COUNTIES OF HUNTERDON AND SOMERSET SHOULD BE ABOVE 
FREEZING.

TRAVEL CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME QUITE HAZARDOUS FOR TONIGHT 
IN MUCH OF SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND NORTHERN NEW JERSEY. ICE 
WILL LIKELY ACCUMULATE ON UNTREATED ROADS AND WALKWAYS.

ICE MAY ALSO ACCUMULATE ON TREE LIMBS AND POWER LINES, POSSIBLY 
RESULTING IN SCATTERED POWER OUTAGES, ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHERN 
PARTS OF OUR REGION.

REGION AND NORTHERN NEW JERSEY. ICE WILL LIKELY ACCUMULATE ON 
UNTREATED ROADS AND WALKWAYS.

RESULTING IN POWER OUTAGES, ESPECIALLY IN THE POCONOS AND IN FAR 
NORTHERN NEW JERSEY WHERE THE COLD AIR IS FORECAST TO REMAIN THE 
LONGEST.
