2/2/21 Winter Storm Update
Fast-moving winter storm coming through on Sunday.
Unlike the previous storm that lasted for days, the upcoming storm will produce precipitation for only about 9 hours. A rapidly moving storm will move just south of our area and off the coast on Sunday.
Snow will develop before sunrise from from southwest to northeast across the area. Snow will become heavy at times during the day. Temperatures will be near freezing during the storm, consequently, this will cause the precipitation to mix with, and change to rain in some areas, especially across South Jersey and near the shore. As, usual, the rain/snow line will set up 10 miles either side of the I-95 corridor. Depending on where the transition to rain sets up, this will cause accumulations to to be less than predicted in those areas.
Generally, 4-6 inches of snow will fall over the Philly and NYC areas. Expect the precipitation to taper off and end between 1-3pm.
Attached is the latest snowfall forecast from the National Weather Service.
I'll provide updates as needed.
