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.

UP TO A QUARTER INCH OF ICE MAY ACCUMULATE IN PARTS OF OUR REGION. 

AFTER DAYBREAK ON WEDNESDAY, ALMOST ALL LOCATIONS IN THE
PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES OF BERKS, CHESTER, MONTGOMERY AND BUCKS, AND

RESULTING IN SCATTERED POWER OUTAGES, ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHERN
