Monday.Three to six inches of wet, heavy snow is currently forecast across the winter storm watch area south and east of Philadelphia with isolated higher amounts possible.Road and soil temperatures remain warm as well as the adjacent Atlantic ocean water and this will lead to snow melting early on.
Lighter accumulations of snow are possible farther west along the I-95 corridor, where there will be a sharp cut-off to the snow line. This includes Philadelphia, where a trace to one inch of snow is currently expected. Areas west of Philadelphia will see rain or snow showers.Because this storm is still evolving, there may be some changes to the track, timing, and snow amounts.
