Delays scrolling at the bottom of your screen. Sends us your pictures, you can use facebook, instagram twitter, use the hashtag fox29snow. Without delay, sue, you are the woman of the hour. Lets get right over to you. Yes, we have a lot to talk about this morning because this storm, it is with us now and it extends all the way down to texas. So weve got a lot of time to go before this thing is through with us. And yes as predicted the transition is happening colder air coming in from the northwest, and were seeing the green change over to white, with a little bit of pink inbetween thats where there is sleet. So there is a short period of sleet during the transition from rain to snow. And thats whats happening right now west goshen, Chester County, charlestown, to the north of that, here in philadelphia were just seeing light rain right now, but up in horsham probably starting to seat transition, when you look out the window, allentown has gone over to snow, and down at the jersey shore, southern delaware, all rain at the moment. We still have our winter storm warning in effect for most of the area until 7 00 tonight. Now, up in pocono mountains and in the Lehigh Valley, weve transitioned to Winter Weather advisory. Because thats where we expect the least amount of accumulation. So temperature real critical now in the type of precipitation that we will get. So at 38 degrees in philadelphia but 29 mount pocono, closer to freezing in allentown with 34, just above freezing in reading lancaster, and pottstown where that transition will be happening sooner. Closer to 40 in wildwood, atlantic city, so theyll see the change over last. Potential snowfall, we are still looking at anywhere from five to 8 inches, around the metro area, less to the north and west of us, maybe even less than the three to 5 inches in some places. This is not a northern and western storm. This will ends up ac southern storm, and there are pocket, just depends on where this band sets up, pockets maybe more than 8 inches of snow, some of the models are saying 10 inches, for some places. So lets time it out for you. Right now the rain is changing over to snow, from northwest to southeast. And sleet is mixing in during the transition. Through noon, we will have the bulk of our accumulating snow, but it does look like that snow will last after 12 00 noon it, could stick around for awhile. You saw how big the storm was. So that should help you plan out your day whatever you plan to be doing, if youre up right now you need to run out to 24 hour store bob kelly this would be the time, while still just rain. You know youre up earl when youre at wawa and im on my way into work, and the kid next to you is on his way home. Right. From partying all night. He got the munchies, got a hoagie, he has got the chips the soda, he looked like he had been out all night. Good morning up and early with you 33 03 this thursday morning, right now, it is rain, but that quick that change over starting to occur and the only good thing about the rain is that it has washed away a lot of the yuck, a lot of the slush and a lot of the ice, so were getting almost like hosing down the roadway and getting ready for the next one. The bad thing with the rain is that penndot wasnt able to put down any brine last night in advance of this storm. So, things are going to get tricky through the morning. Here is a live look at route 100, again wet roadways, a lot of puddles out there even in the intersections here, this is a live look, in delaware route one. So looks like weve got all of the cameras all lined up, ready to go. I havent seen any flakes yet. This is live look at route 309 up near 202. Big key though, the snow emergency kicks in here in philadelphia at 6 00 a. M. The most important part for us drivers is that there is no parking permitted on the snow emergency routes. And those routes are clearly marked by the red and white sign that says snow emergency route. If you live in the neighborhoods, down here in center city, you should know where those routes are. Believe me, the tow trucks will be ready to take your car for a free ride at about a 300dollar fine to get it out of the pound lot down there in south philly. 6 00 a. M. Is the time to beat. So if you are watching us now you may be park your car last night, now is the time to get out there and get it off of that snow emergency route. Reduced speeds across all of the area bridges this morning. Thats going to be the call. As far as mass transit amtrak already kick in modified schedule today for the asela and the northeast corridor trains, same deal on the keystone line between harrisburg philly and new york. Lauren, back to you. Bob lets get right out to steve keel any new jersey. Tell us what you see in cherry hill. Reporter well, lauren, i started out in jersey, moorestown, drove into work in philly then drove back over here. My temperature on the dashboard, 3 Degrees Higher when we drove back here than when i drove n so it is not bad out at all. Just light rain, so, good driving right now. You got to just put up with the mist and maybe some fog and of course the potholes that opened up yesterday. I was thinking of buying a couple of donkeys and taking tours down into one it was so big, like they have down at the grand canyon. Watch out. Here is my tip of the day. And i beat bob kelly with a tip about traffic. Bob, you can steel this the rest of the morning. You know when they tell to you have six car lengths in front. You . Always do that. That way you have a warning about a pothole. Because the new Jersey State Police had 15 cars that cratered into one, and had their tires blow out and wheels break open. All so close together the people couldnt see what they were going to hit because they had no warning. So watching these cars in front of them, and instead of getting any look at the ground, because they are so close, almost tailgating, and they all hit the same pothole before people realized get out that far lane, close that lane down. So that gives you a sense about how bad the potholes are at least here in new jersey, and im sure pennsylvania drivers have a bunch of bad stories. Looking at route 70 here, upon sos only thing lit is up their sign all food here open, as well. Not a a lot of traffic. Here is the mist were talking about as the one car goes by usment look across the street, see the yellow flashing light . Thats a guy with a plow on the front of the truck salt in the back of the truck he was told to come in at midnight because he didnt know what time the snow would fall. Now he is just sitting there wait to go plow and salt. Ands going have a long wait. But he is getting paid by the hour, not by the inch of plowing hes doing. So lauren, route 70, a shame we dont have the camera and mike on the way over here, because i am having a 70s flashback, the hat i am wearing, i expect to have five hat, theyll all get soak. Bishop use that is, right down the street, a shame we didnt have the mike and the camera in these roving unit, would you have seen me singing take the money and run with the hand collapse then just what i needed by the cars. Lauren, my story of the day for our 3 00 viewers like huey dillon, if i could be 1 percent as nice as him im going to hen, he is one of those light night owls. I am getting gas yesterday posed for pictures with theus viewers who love tusker they want to know where mike; i said did you know eddie murphy too hot in the hot tub video had the gold speedos mike is wearing those right now down in the caribbean. So they said theyve been warning you and chris and doing six hours, and i said what do you think of chris . And she goes he is a five below mike jerrick. I go what . I said as in the store . Yes, like the cheaper version of mike jerrick. She was trying to be complimentary. And i said that was funny im kind of the local dollar of mike jerrick of mike jerrick the dollar chain. But make sure you tell chris he is a five below mike jerrick. Five below. I cant wait to tell him. Hell be here at 4 00. Ill tell him when he gets here. We need the chychrun on that at least for the first couple of hours in parenthesis, five below mike injury glike im tell tom to work on that. All right well check back in with you steve. Lets go out to Jennifer Joyce live in drexel hill with a look at the conditions there jenny, still just raining out there right now . Good morning lauren, it is, it is pretty steady rain coming down right now were live along route one here in drexel hill right across the street from chickies and petes, just taking a look at the conditions now. I know we are expecting in that five to eightinch range south of the city. So watching people drive through this area, all them, it is pretty quiet right now 3 00 in the morning. I was checking the school districts, and no announcements, as of yet. So im wonder if people are just going to wait and see what they wake up to, in a few hours, as the conditions change over. But, for the moment, it is pretty much just what weve been seeing all day yesterday too. Just this rain falling, it is feeling pretty, pretty mild out right now too. So still waiting for that really cold air to come through our area. But, for the moment, no problems here, lauren. All right jenny joyce stay dry as long as you can. Thank you so much. All right, in delaware, del dot says theyll have more than 300 plows out on the roads to clear the snow. They did not pre treat the roads as bob just mentioned because of the rain. It would just wash all of the brine away, wore ted would wash away. They say 70 different mechanics are ready and on stand by to go fix any issues that could come up with your trucks, so far this year del dot said they use bad 43 of its salt piles. Speaking of salt, many people had to run out yesterday before the storm to try to pick some up. Another supply, but they didnt have much luck a lot of Hardware Stores completely sold out. We sold out of whatever we had from yesterday. We got a delivery in, that was sold out. We got a second delivery, that was sold out. And were waiting for a third delivery. Oh, oh, maybe the third times the charm. But, since spring is right around the corn earn employees at many Stores Tell Us they are not getting any more shipments so hopefully mother nature, this is the last snowstorm. Still ahead sue will take closer look at the radar in her full forecast. Plus well show you what follows this storm and heres a live look at the airport this morning. Well tell you how the storm is affecting travel thats coming up next. It is a snow train not real a love train today. Right now three plows. You see the hashtag fox 29 snow we want to see your pictures, right now this is the platt bridge. That will will be icy later on sue because the snow is coming. I know some people are on twitter waking up seeing only rain, and theyre like what . It is coming, though, right . We just had a tweet that said you guys are telling lies. No what . Why would we do that . And i understand, youre looking out your window saying wheres the snow . Here it is. Seeing it on ultimate Doppler Radar. May just not be in your neighborhood yet. But the transition is happening from northwest to southeast. And you see that the line is just northwest of i95 right now, where it is changing over and look how much we have to go, this actually goes down to texas the line of this storm. And we expect this low pressure system to move up the front thats coming through right now and give us decent amount of accumulation, well have our estimates in just a second, but his places like allentown, Montgomery County, starting to see the transition, half of Montgomery County has snow, half has rain. And here in philadelphia, it is just light rain, at the moment. Cherry hill, where stove is, upper darby still rain, but it is coming, as you look up toward Chester County, and delaware and new jersey, not so much. So by 5 00 we see the transition line moving a little further toward the southeast. And eventually with that sleet inbetween we get more snow. Now, we see the snow continuing through about 7 00. When you see the dark he blue, those are pockets of heavier snow sometimes we could see it falling at a rate of inch or two an hour, still snowing at 9 00. Little tricky around the jersey shore southern delaware where we may hang on with some sleet for awhile. But, eventually, those colder temperatures take over, and it is still snowing in the area at noon, even lingering past noon, according to this particular computer model. Why, look, it is 3 00 in the afternoon, and it is still snowing, again not all the models in total agreement about how long it is going to last, but looks like the storm will stick around through evening. Thats why we have our watches and warnings in effect through about 7 00 when we think that will be out of here. And then tomorrow we get plenty of sunshine. We could have record low temperatures in the morning on friday if we get to about 9 degrees. Thirtyeight right now. What a difference between 38 and tomorrow at this time when we may be looking at 9 degrees. So temperatures are close to freezing, to the north and west of us, we still have a ways to go south and east to get those temperatures down. Now, in the places where it is snowing, seeing some lower visibilities, so watch out for that, if you are trying to travel around allentown maybe and reduce visibility out in lancaster county, down in wildwood weve got some fog right now less than 2 miles visibility. So heres your winter storm warning, all of the counties in pink until 7 00 p. M. You just saw the future cast which has the snow lasting almost until that time. But lighter accumulations in the mountains and the Lehigh Valley, they are under Winter Weather advisory. So still going with the five to 8 inches for most of us. North and west, three to five, and there are few places that could get more than eight, at least thats the way it is looking right now. Well continue to refine this as the morning goes along hope youll stay with us all morning. Temperatures in the 30s, falling, throughout the day with the snow continuing, and some sleet inbetween while were transition g then, yes we are probably going to get down to 9 degrees overnight. Bob kelly whatever falls today will be frozen solid tomorrow morning. Yes. Fun never ends. The next 24, 36 hours will just be crazy. Were in here, waiting for that rain to change over to the snow. But, you know, all of the rain thats out there and all of the water thats on the roadway, cleaned it up little bit. There are some big potholes all over the place. Steve was right. The rain and the water the melting snow, filling up those potholes. So were going to find them the hard way today. Here is a live look at the schuylkill expressway, disable on the westbound side, right near girard avenue. But otherwise light volume. Here is a live look, this is 95, right near the girard point double decker bridge. Shear route 100 out in Chester County again still have some piles of that slushy left over snow from earlier left over ice, i guess from a day and a half ago as some of the left or right turning lanes. But otherwise light volume so far in the 50s, on the schuylkill. I95 all of the salt and plow train crews are all casino of waiting in the wings strategically placed along all of our pennsylvania, new jersey, and delaware roadways, as if we need a sewer main break. We have one here in yardley big oak road, problem this morning. Just talked to septa. They expect to run normal thursday schedule. We all know thats not going to pan out the way they think. But right now the market frankford and the subway lines are running with the buses until 5 00, and they said around 10 00 a. M. Theyll make a decision for what they are calling an early exit plan. And i kind of read that as if it looks like it is going to be really bad theyre going to start pulling some of their buses and getting set up for later in the day. So that folks will have an idea of what the game plans going to be. Folks that do go into work, if there is early exit plan, septa making some adjustments for the afternoon theyll have that announcement coming by about 10 00 a. M. Lauren, back over to you. Bob lets check with a with one of our crews. Steve keel any jersey. Now, keeley, you said were you in jersey, came over to philly, went back. I saw you this morning in the rain, like tacking lots of stuff out of your trunk putting into the last truck. What was all of that stuff . Whats all that stuff . You got wear lots of pants and clothes. Im getting soak here. Now, were on the air until 1 00. Do you realize that . How many hours is that . Thats ten hours. Yes. All right . If i wear the same wet stuff ten hours from now ill be like an emergency room by 1 00 oclock, you know . Im already sniffing on the air here. Soap yes, it is like a liberachi concert david lee rot. Costume change every hit. But i was just on like 52nd ago, so i didnt have time to get changed. Leaf over snow bob was talking about, in the whole foods parking lot. The snow is piled higher than the trees. And i dont know where they are going to pile todays snow. I dont even know where the snow is from . I mean, how much snow did we get where they got this high of snow, and this melt in the when you try it walk on it, coy actually borough through that right now, i tried to walk on it and i sung right through. So i said all right im wet enough. By the way this snow, higher than that car over there. How about the smart cars . How smart are smart cars in weather like . Thats a kick boxing car. Somebodys going to get ko if they dare drive that in the snow. So good thing that it is park. You know what . The guys plowing this parking lot could probably burr that i smart car. Wouldnt that be fun if i they just bury that, plow the snow on top of that . Now, chris will spin around, and show you how deep the puddles are starting to form. Kind of up a hill here. Because whole foods was nice enough to light this parking lot so well, you can get a sense about all this water. You wonder will that be freeze and then be underneath the snow . So boy this is going to be a bad mess everywhere when bob calls it a hot mess, it will be an icy mess, coincidentally, to follow up my five below story lauren, look to the right. Oh, i thought i saw a dollar tree. Yes im the dollar store. Im the dollar store version. Chris is above me. Hes fight below version of mike. So what would mike be . Hes like mr. Millions. By the way lauren, i used to work night shift before i started here. And i used to come home and watch the 2 30 sports center. This was when a high carb low fayette, bowl of rice checks, bowl of corn checks, wheat checks, thinking that was healthy, but used to eat cereal at the end of my day then, and i would go to bed around now. So now i am getting up now and live and you know that sleep pillow we have, the infomercial for the sleep pillow . I just ordered two of them, one for me them you get a second one breaking news, by the way,
