...A CHANCE OF FREEZING DRIZZLE EARLY THIS MORNING...

THE CONTINUING UPSLOPE FLOW IS DEVELOPING SOME SPOTTY LIGHT RAIN
OR DRIZZLE ACROSS EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA THIS MORNING. SO FAR MOST
OF IT WAS EVAPORATING BEFORE REACHING THE GROUND. BUT AS THE AIR
CONTINUES TO MOISTEN, SOME OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD REACH THE
GROUND. MOST TEMPERATURES ARE ABOVE FREEZING THIS MORNING. BUT
THERE ARE READINGS AROUND THE FREEZING MARK ON THE POCONO
PLATEAU. THUS POCKETS OF FREEZING DRIZZLE MIGHT OCCUR EARLY THIS
MORNING BEFORE TEMPERATURES RISE ABOVE FREEZING.

MOTORISTS ARE ADVISED TO BE WARY IF DRIVING OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN OF THE POCONOS THIS EARLY MORNING, ESPECIALLY ON BRIDGES
AND OVERPASSES. BE WARY OF CHANGING ROAD CONDITIONS AND DO NOT TAILGATE.
