Preparing for a messy start weekend weatherwise, till ahead on Eyewitness News. Wintry weather head ago cross the country is creating a tangled mess on the the pennsylvania highway when it arrives here, katie. And, it does, guys arrive in time for the weekend this weekend watch it the is all about the terms moving in, it actually comes with the the trade off of a nice, big warm up and when i say big, i mean big, but we do have snow, ice, as well as rain to deal with on saturday and more rain on sunday and coming upright after the break, we will give you, much more specific detail on who gets what, and when, stick around, this is a lot of inportant details, youll want to hear. Back on Eyewitness News blast of Winter Weather is blame for dents all across the country and in pennsylvania. This was mess yesterday on interstate 80 near pittsburgh, 59 cars, and trucks, got tangled up in a crash on the snowy highway. Three people were taken to the hospital, fortunately with just minor injuries. Thank goodness nothing like that here. Yes. Not just yet. Yes. Icy weather is on the way. Now we will not be stuck with, you know inches worth of snow on the ground but tomorrow morning, especially, looking pretty, dicey. I like that word. Especially slick. We will deal were on ice as well. There is a lot of details to get to and it is dependent upon where you are what you will end up finding. We will get a heck of a lot more specific here but lets start off by taking you outside to talk about the temperatures. The lets keep it in perspective, guys. The it could be worse. Let me show you why. Twentytwo currently in philadelphia. Feeling like 22 because thankfully the wind has started to ease up on us. We will take it. Out in chicago youre currently at 16. Ten this minneapolis. It is a whooping four, in mar Fargo North Dakota and interest that the falls we are not even above zero right now. That does put tonight perspective, right . Still colder than average. I get it. You need to be bundled up adequately. Heres the storm in the entirety. You have to zoom out on storm scan. Bulk of the energy is up around rockies but streaks of snow have begun to move in. Not just midwest but southwestern, pennsylvania. But were not going to get in on any of this until overnight tonight. Evening drive, usually, busy anyway but wont have any wetter, wintry weather, to deal with through that. Lets check in at 1 00 a. M. , beginnings of the snow flakes start to move in. Even they this is a warm front lifting in, youve got too much cold air in place. We will have several hours, of snow, before the warm air, really catches up to us from south to north and can force that change over, from snow to ice, and then to eventually rain. Owe, further north we go more likely to see a couple inches of accumulation but by six or seven or 8 00 in the morning you wille it turn over to ice in the city, more so 9 00 a. M. In the Lehigh Valley and pushing out of the bucks county and by 11 00an this is all rain and it is all gone thankfully come later that afternoon. Catch a break tomorrow night before the cold front comes through on sunday and delivers a fresh round of rain. Let me put tonight more bullet point format the for you. Pick your region and this is what you are facing. There will be ice briefly in between snow and rain, especially for central sliver of our area. Philadelphia, you have to worry about freezing rain or sleet, in between, that inch or less of snow changing over to rain, okay. Especially early in the morning that looks like the slick time. I have seen a lot of those road crews getting us prepped with the brine and salt outside on the roadways. Were not talking about a lot of ice. You know how this goes a thin glaze is all you need to cause major headaches. Even through an hour or two worth of just modest icing there could be a tenth of an inch of ice to really slick things up. So again that is tomorrow morning. I would give you red caution light here, anytime, leading up until 7 00 in the morning as to how roads will be. Trying to get this that last minute Holiday Shopping please be careful. Wait it out. Afternoon time, just rain, and then catch a break. Look at how Bushkill Falls we see this all start to ice up. It is that cold outside. Quickly convicting our live Neighborhood Network just gray skies outside cape may courthouse but looking at the seven day forecast check out warm up. I think we will flirt with 60 by sunday but we have to deal with the chill until then. Back over to you. All right, thanks, katie. Will romance has caught up. I have been waiting for this fortes.
