The city council is debating the future of the philadelphia gas works today and tomorrow. The council said no to the citys deal to sell pgw to Uil Holdings Corp for more than 1. 8 billion. Today they talked about alternatives if the utility stays city owned. The deal expires at the end of the year. If not approved by council. The members say theyve been excluded from the decision process. Mayor continues to pretend that he involved council in this process, but actions speak louder than words. Yes, he invited Council Members and others to a couple of meetings at which he told us what he was going to do, but that is not what fairminded people think of as a collaborative process. The hearings will include testimony from experts about new directions for the utility. Sale opponents are worried about private owners caring for a city asset, while still supporters say pgw can only improve in private hands. Right now rates are the highest in the region, while Customer Satisfaction is the worst of any large gas utility in the nation.

We are continuing to watch some rain changing over to light snow across parts of the area. So in some cases, we could see a little bit of light accumulation on grassy surfaces. The poconos could see about an inch of snow, but here is what the radar looks like. We are looking mainly west of philadelphia. Through chester, parts of bucks county, lancaster county, or berks county i should say. So in parts of Chester County, this is where were seeing some light snow falling across the area. Parksburg been seeing a little bit of light snow for a while. West caln seeing the light snow as well. If we zoom in, you can see where the light snow is falling shown by the blue coloring. The pink shows where we could be seeing a little rain snow mix. Now, this is falling fairly lightly. This is about. 08 of an inch per hour. So less than a tenth of an inch. And that gives you an idea of the rate of the snow falling across this area in Chester County. West caln seeing light snow. Well take sample of this from the radar. This is lighter snow than what i showed you a little farther south. Honey brook continuing to see light snow. So whats happening here is were seeing the light rain changing over to light snow. So now we are starting to move into parts of Lehigh Valley, across the major interstates. 176 and 766. What were seeing here is the temperature is dropping and that light rain is changing over to the light snow which we really only expect to accumulate on grassy surfaces. So near reading, were seeing about. 04 an inch. Again, this is well less than a tenth of an inch of snow per hour possibly or precip per hour. So we are continuing to monitor this even though we dont expect it to stick to roadways. It is moving into parts of the Lehigh Valley or changing over i should say. Reading seeing a little bit of light snow falling there. Some areas, again, closer to maiden creek, the pink coloring. We could be seeing a little rain snow mix at this time. Well zoom out a little bit and start to see which counties out of our area are seeing more of the changeover with the cold temperatures. What we do see around the philadelphia area, this is mainly light rain, but keep in mind, this will continue to drop our temperatures. So it is a cold rain across the philadelphia area and surrounding suburbs. One section we have also been watching is up in the poconos. That is where we see the light rain falling here. This has been pretty steady light rainfall. Toby hannah, mt. Pocono, a lot of ski rezoosort have been seei the laight rain falling in this area. This could be an inch accumulated by the time this is all said and done. The precip rate. 041 an inch per hour. Thats fairly good. Seeing it good on our cameras. Well continue watching this through next few hours. As i mentioned, temperatures where the rain is falling are dropping. That will allow maybe some other spots to even drop down to see some rain changing over to snow. This is mostly on the light side, though. And as i zoom out even more, you can see much of south jersey and delaware is on the dry side. Now ill loop this. This is whats been happening over the past hour. Weve seen an area of moisture move across the area. Like we were telling you yesterday, some of this changing over to light rain or snow showers. Mainly north and west is where we do expect the snow showers, but as we go through the rest of the evening, we will keep this in the forecast. Farther to our north and west is where we see a little bit more snowfall. This is weakening, though, as it approaches, so we really only have i would say maybe three or four hours left of seeing this type of weather, although we will be watching it for you as we go through the next several hours. Ill stop this, again, and zoom into parts of Chester County. Some Higher Elevations here could be starting to see a little steadier light snowfall. Again, were query this. Its about. 08 an inch per hour of precip. Again, this is a little less than a tenth of an inch. Again, were seeing accumulating snow possibly on grassy surfaces. Not much, though, but in the poconos, thats where we could be see about an inch of snow accumlating. These are the first flakes of the season. We have live camera views of that. Chief meteorologist glenn hurricane schwartz is standing by with a look at that. Glenn . Yeah, sheena, at least in the poconos the snow is looking pretty impressive and its coming down at a fast rate and the flakes are also on the bigger side. 2 can allo some accumulation there as sheena was saying. Now, on the wider view, we see a couple of things. First of all, there is a back edge to this. Not going to be going all night. The temperature is going down. Were also seeing the snow in Higher Elevations. That is a factor. Of course, the sunset. Now, you can see these patches of blue, again, sheena was showing you this. And obviously the biggest one is in the poconos and spreading down a little bit toward the Lehigh Valley. This is a solid area of steady snow. These are not flurries. These are not snow showers. Theyre steady snow. Now, the darker blues, its been a long time since weve shown this, back to last winter, for example, the darker blues indicate the heavier snow. So we have one little batch of heavier snow go through, and now its a little bit lighter. But look at the back edge of this whole storm. That is moving, so its not going to stay all night. We have the rain in the philadelphia area right now. Now, visibility gives us an idea of how heavy the snow might be. 3 4 a mile in the mt. Pocono. Its fairly significant. Mile and a half in reading. These other visibilities, not that low. The other thing that is clear and important is, of course, the temperatures which are above freezing except in mt. Pocono which is 32. Its getting a little bit closer in parts of Chester County to the freezes maing mark, too. Its one thing we have to follow hour by hour. And well be right back. Right at 6 00, lni responsible for the safety of buildings in philadelphia to make sure this doesnt happen. Oh, [ bleep ]. The whole building just collapsed. Coming up, whats being done today to make sure buildings around the city stay safe. Plus, a new jersey driver hits a man and keeps going with the man stuck in his windshield.

Its wet, nasty, sleet, snow, whatever you want to call it. Flurries are falling in allentown, as the temperatures are beginning to dip down. This would be the first significant snowfall in the Lehigh Valley. Again, last year, one of the worst snowiest winters on record, top ten in Lehigh Valley history. Right now, just a light snowfall. Couple flurries. Well see if that changes. Live in allentown, Randy Gyllenhaal, nbc 10 news. Meteorologist Sheena Parveen, here is a look up in the poconos. This is where we have seen pretty steady snowfall over i would say the past hour or more, and this will continue as we go through the next few hours.

Through the allentown area. Some light snow being reported there as the rain changes over. And through parts of the poconos, this is where we have also seen pretty steady snowfall.
