Wind & Winter Weather Advisories Elsewhere
Winter Storm Warnings & Winter Weather Advisories continue today with only minor changes. Advisories have been added to the southwestern counties of New Jersey. In addition we have wind advisories from the Coastal Mid Atlantic through New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania northeast to Southern New England for winds gusting to 50 mph later today.
Snow forecasts were adjusted slightly to add coastal areas of New Jersey and parts of Long Island. Those areas won’t see much, generally under an inch. As you head west amounts go up reaching 4 inches or more in the Winter Storm Warning area. From here we watch the radar to see if there are any surprises. So far we see the radar performing in line with weather model forecasts.

It all comes to an end later this afternoon and evening as the storm pulls away. Snow will end frmo west to east between 4pm in Eastern Pennsylvania and near 8pm in Southeastern New England to Eastern Long Island.
