...AN AREA OF HEAVIER SNOW CONTINUES TO OVERSPREAD THE REGION...

As of 245 PM, radar and surface observations indicate that the
snowfall rates have increased, mainly north and west of a line
from roughly Coatesville to Pottstown to Quakertown in
Pennsylvania then toward Sussex in New Jersey. The snow will be
wetter along the southern areas where temperatures are right
around freezing.

The increased snowfall rates, to around one half an inch per
hour, will allow the snow to stick to untreated surfaces more
efficiently. If driving, use extra caution due to roadways
becoming potentially slush to snow covered along with
significantly reduced visibility occurring. Remember, bridges and
other elevated surfaces are colder and therefore become slippery
faster.
