While we will be close to hitting 70s on Saturday, the area will see wind gust up to 45mph through the late evening. This has prompted the NWS to issue a Wind Advisory from 1pm Saturday until 1am Sunday. A line of showers will move across the area durning the evening that will bring the potential for damaging winds and a tornado can’t be ruled out.

WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM SATURDAY TO 1 AM EST
SUNDAY

* WHAT...South winds 15 to 25 mph with gusts up to 45 mph
  expected. Winds will abruptly shift northwest behind a cold
  front Saturday evening.

* WHERE...Portions of central, northern and southern New Jersey
  and east central and southeast Pennsylvania.

* WHEN...From 1 PM Saturday to 1 AM EST Sunday.

* IMPACTS...Gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects.
  Tree limbs could be blown down and a few power outages may
  result.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Secure any outdoor holiday decorations from
  blowing away in the wind.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Use extra caution when driving, especially if operating a high
profile vehicle. Secure outdoor objects.

As everyone has been waiting for the final calls on our mid week sNOw storm. Our final call is a Dusting to half inch for everyone. The storm is trending further south which result in not much snow. Just be alert for wet and slippery conditions.

A big warming trend sets up for the next couple of weeks which will result in our area seeing above normal temps. This coming weekend an airmass will overspread the area on Saturday. We will see record high temps some locations may see temps into the 70s!!!!

Now we are 18 days until Christmas at this point I do not see any major signs for a White Christmas so at this point I think it is safe to say it will NOT be a White Christmas.

DEC. 7th UPDATE:

At this time our final call is a C-1″ for most of the area. Most of the snow will melt on contact but grassy surfaces could see a coating. NO accumulations with this one.


The first winter storm of the year is less than 48 hours away. While this will not bring significant snowfall to the area, the first snowfall always poses challenges with roads and driving. Most of the area will see a COATING to 2″ (most areas will be closer to a coating to 0.5″

Again most of the area will see a coating to 2″ of snow. Most of the snow will move into the area late morning on Wednesday into the early afternoon before moving out of the area by the evening rush. While most accumulations will be on grassy surfaces a slush mess on the roads is possible. While there is a lot of time between now and the storm if we need to adjust any information tomorrow we will.

WINTER DRIVING TIPS FROM PENNDOT!
Remember, if winter weather is forecast, eliminate all unnecessary travel. This will keep you and your family safe and allow PennDOT to more easily perform its winter duties. However, if you must travel, PennDOT offers the following tips for safe driving this winter season

As you can feel we have a GREAT Weather day but it won’t last long. While temps are in the 60s across most of the area. We will see a cold front move across the area late afternoon. When this front moves across the area wind gust 40-50 mph are possible. By late tonight temps will be in the upper 30s/low 40s.

As of this time the Wednesday systems looks to bring light snow to most of the area C-2” is very possible but a more official forecast will come later.

Until then enjoy this great weather.
