Highs only in the 20s. The accuweather highlights show winter storm watches along the coast. A developing noreaster. Will bring a glancing blow, not a direct hit. And after that, dangerous wind chills late this week into the weekend. Right now, its cold out there. But not quite as harsh as the past couple of days. 19 in philadelphia, down from a high of 24. Allentown, 12, trenton, 14, and cape may, 24 degrees. Of course, the air temperature, as we know, doesnt tell the full story. You have to look at the wind chill. The wind chill, philadelphia, feels like 6. 5 in trenton, 3 in allentown, and 12 degrees below zero in the poconos. Satellite and radar showing the two pieces of energy that will form the noreaster. Part of the reason why, the exact track is up in the air. The actual storm hasnt formed. Its like a puzzle. Still in pieces.

Close to philadelphia. 13 inches in areas farther north and west like the poconos that like the snow, not looking like much at all. A coating to an inch. That could change if the track shifts. Its all about location. A very sharp cut off to the west. Snowfall totals in this area ranging from barely anything at all to up to about 6 inches along the coast. And, again, any shift in track will bring big changes to the accumulation. Parts of new england could get 12 feet of snow and near hurricaneforce winds. So fortunately were not getting a direct hit. No matter how much snow you get on thursday, future tracker is showing behind it wind chills friday morning, 9 below in philadelphia. 17 below in allentown. 12 below in lake hurst. 31 degrees below zero in the poconos and wind chills remain below zero all day long on friday. So the exclusive accuweather seven day forecast from the increasing clouds, warmest day of the week. 31 degrees. Thursday, snow, especially the first half of the day, heaviest east of philadelphia, 29. And temperatures drop friday and saturday. Only in the teens. Wind chills below zero.
