Right before he jumps (into what he assumes is a shallow puddle, to win a $1 bet), he says, "I do it for the kids."Alright, so there's more.

Monday will be quiet: mostly sunny with a high in the mid 40s.

Tuesday will be similar, but we'll see increasing clouds throughout the morning.  On-and-off rain showers will begin by 2-3pm.

Rain will become steadier by about 8pm.  Expect rain to begin mixing with wet snow by 10pm, and this mix will continue overnight.

I think it becomes all snow by 3-5am.  It'll snow til Wednesday evening - maybe 6-8pm.

Amounts and precipitation type are especially tricky this time of year, given the sun angle, surface temperatures, and all the moving meteorological parts in this storm.

On Monday, I'm going to give more nuanced forecasts (like, broken down by area/specific location).  So please let me know via email if you'd like me to include your area in my next forecast.

But here is what I expect for Berks:

Accumulation, 4-6 inches.

I don't see widespread outages and downed limbs/power lines with this storm.  Not a whole lot of crazy wind with this one.

Chance of delay Wednesday, 65.44%

Chance of cancellation Wednesday, 41.66%

Stay tuned for updates!
