That is Geoff Collins, live from the Liacouras Center, guys, back to you in the studio. John, he is working off eight mountain dews it will be a while before he hits the ground. Thanks, buddy. Well, while temperature will drop in our area, we dont have snow, at least not yet. Not yet. Folks in the west however not so lucky. Check out this video from outside pittsburgh in the western part of the state is seeing as people there get their first taste of winter and what a taste it is, Winter Weather conditions may not be too far down the road yet either. On that note. It feels like a transition. Katie fehlinger. What i will say is that were likely going to see some snow, saturday morning specifically but it will turn over to rain. Okay. Even in the mountains. Talk about how we will get there. We will talk about this winter chill and arctic chill we will see enough cold air in place by saturday to support that but there is a lot of movement this is one of those see saw ing type forecast is where we have a lot of ups and downs and couple of systems that will work their way through. First and foremost arctic cold front to send us on this nose dive. Lets back it up to get you outside, hitting the road here get a sense of what the weather is to go right the now we have you covered as well and it looks beautiful, nice, bright, sunny, we are at 4 degrees outside Kutztown Area Middle School and were going to see temperatures across the region not even hit this value in the next few days and that includes the urban corridor. This is balmy by comparison to what is coming. Savior that, right or just take that and let that marinate for a he can is. Looking at the nationwide map there is not a lot going on. You can see cloud tracing this latest cold front but draw your focus to this next storm system in the inner mountain west, northern california, oregon that will cross out of the rookies, blossom in the next big thing and we are going to see it move in friday night into saturday as a warm front but before it gets here we have this arctic cold front that comes in. So again here comes to this warm front bringing with it initially snow, probably ice, eventually turning over to rain as temperatures climb in the 40s but lets also talk about how much snow we could see before that happens. We will jump to the weekend and it would be specifically saturday, now there is a possibility since this all changes from snow and ice to rain from south to north you will likely end up with a few inches of accumulation here, possibly three to 6 inches worth. This is one model interpretationtation so not gospel but general guide as to what you will fine. Lehigh valley, poconos has best chance to see any kind of significant accumulation. But way we get there is from this next cold front that comes in tomorrow and that will carve out a nice dig in the jet stream to bring core of cold air right over the delaware valley. It is clipping our region here down near the shore it is not as harsh but thursday and friday 15 to 20 degrees below seasonal average. Factor in the wind this is vicious stuff, we just havent seen it in a while. Bundle up, adequately especially friday morning in the city, it feels more like anywhere from five to as cold as a goose egg, 0 degrees and far enough north and west it will feel colder then that. Let me show you how rest of the the forecast pans out because there is detail here, were talking 20s at best both tomorrow and friday. Friday morning is most harsh. By saturday, sunday storms moving through but temperatures are climbing, so it is just rain by the time we hit sunday, guys, back to you. Tis season forgiving and that is just what employees from philadelphias bank of america did today. Bank presented cradles to crayons with a 20,000 check today in west conshohocken.
