...A PERIOD OF SNOW AND SLEET THIS MORNING...

SNOW MIXED WITH SLEET AT TIMES WAS MOVING NORTHEAST FROM
NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND AND NORTHERN DELAWARE INTO SOUTHEASTERN
PENNSYLVANIA AND TOWARD WESTERN NEW JERSEY THIS MORNING.
TEMPERATURES AT MANY LOCATIONS WERE ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK, AND
IN THOSE PLACES ACCUMULATIONS OF AROUND AN INCH WOULD BE CONFINED
MAINLY TO GRASSY SURFACES. THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF CECIL,
CHESTER, MONTGOMERY, BUCKS, HUNTERDON AND WARREN COUNTIES MAY BE
COLD ENOUGH TO SEE UP TO AN INCH OF ACCUMULATION OF ROADS,
ALTHOUGH THE RECENT WARM TEMPERATURES MAY MITIGATE THAT. EXPECT
SNOW TO END FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST DURING THE COURSE OF THE
ENTIRE MORNING. 

PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY THIS MORNING. SLOW DOWN WHEN DRIVING ON
SLICK OR SNOW COVERED ROADS, ESPECIALLY ON BRIDGES AND OTHER
ELEVATED SURFACES. TRY TO LEAVE AS MUCH ROOM AS POSSIBLE BETWEEN
YOURSELF AND OTHERS.
