Amazing. That was just ... breathtaking.
So, focusing on Wednesday's weather: it's going to be a lot like Sunday. Snow, then freezing rain. Slippery driving.
Here's my call, subject to updates / tweaks:
Precipitation begins as snow between 5 and 7am Wednesday.
Sometime between 11 and 1, snow will mix with sleet (frozen pellets) and freezing rain.
Freezing rain (rain that freezes onto surfaces) becomes plain rain (rain that just stays water even when it hits the ground). Expect this to happen between 2 and 4.
And there may even be some mixing back to snow as precipitation ends between 8 and 10pm.
Accumulation: 2 to 4 inches of snow, with .1 to .2 inch of icy crust on top. (This is for Berks. Northern Berks, Schuylkill County, and the Poconos could get higher amounts.)
In Philadelphia and its immediate suburbs, central and south Jersey, and even Lancaster, expect little to no snow accumulation, but (potentially more hazardous) extended periods of sleet and freezing rain.
Impacts: slippery travel, especially on secondary roads, driveways, and lots. Expect hazardous travel between 8am and 2pm.
Schools: timing and temperature are everything, which is usually true with winter forecasting, but especially in this case.
Chance of delay Wednesday, 11.31%
Chance of cancellation Wednesday, 38.14%
Chance of early dismissal Wednesday, 16.52%
Chance of delay Thursday, 67.33%
Chance of cancellation Thursday, 11.22% [note - I forecast the weather. My percentage for Thursday does not account for area schools that may actually close for the Eagles Super Bowl parade.]
Stay tuned for updates!
