Is coming down. But we are watching, of course, the biggest story of all which is the timing of it during the evening commute and everybody is below freezing. Those roadways, anything it falls on, the steps, stairs, the sidewalk, its going to be slick. Philadelphia, were seeing a light steady snow. Pemberton, down toward hammondton, were seeing steadier snow bands move through your area. Thats headed to egg harbor where were looking at Ted Greenburg who has been updating us. All the way down to cape may, its transitioned into snow for you. If we head all the way up to wilmington were getting a little burst of snow there. Its still a little bit heavier. In southern portions of delaware, we are still looking at snow thats a little bit heavier. You can see these patches from smyrna and across to southern jersey. Basically, the snow is not going to be ending from the next couple of hours unless youre out there in the Lehigh Valley and berks county. By 7 00 philadelphia is in the clear, also parts of delaware and the pennsylvania suburbs. We have to wait till it clears the shore. That will be around 8 30. Then the skies start to clear out. Thats when we become concerned because the roadways are ice covered, no covered, very slippery. Thats how its going to be. If you have plans, leave a lot of extra time. Tomorrow the snow will melt with the sun. At this point, i want to head over to my colleague, meteorologist, glenn schwartz. Hes got the snow totals for your neighborhood and hes going to go hyper local. Its not taking a whole lot of snow to create a whole lot of mess. 9 00 a. M. There was not one snowflake on the weather map related to this system. Thats how quickly it developed lets go area by area to show you how much snow to expect. By the end of this thing, by 7 30 or so, two inches in vineland. A couple of inches of snow, it doesnt seem like a lot. But with the temperatures as low as they are and all the traffic, youve got all those problems. Delaware, the southern portion of the state is in better shape because it was warmer earlier today. Youll get the snow closer to the end of the storm by 7 00. A little over two inches in dover. Nobody should be getting hammered with deep snow, but its temperature thats the big issue. In the city of philadelphia itself, weve seen the snow continue across the area for much of the afternoon. By the time it is over, during the evening hours, were talking about two inches on average across the city. All right, glenn. Now to our team of reporters who are out there in the elements on this snowy friday night. Harry harrison is live for us in manayunk. Hows it looking . Reporter these roads are really tricky here. You might even call this place hill city because its known for so many hills. Some of the folks are still just walking out here. Theres a person right above the step there, theyve been trying to shovel these step and come down and salt those. Youre getting folks shoveling in the area. Traffic tricky on these roads. Heres a vehicle now just coming down one hill trying to make it up another hill. And youre going to see folks coming up who came across the belmont bridge, right up this hill is a bit tricky. Its slick, quite dangerous out here. Folks are moving very slow, but they are being able to get along at a decent pace as long as theyre taking their time and being very careful about it. Back to you guys in the studio. All right. Harry, thanks for that. Lets turn to delaware where tim furlong has been in Newcastle County all day talking with people dealing with all of the snow there. Tim . Reporter i want you to take a look at something, this is my phone. Do you know how red means heavy traffic . Thats how red it must be on i95 here in newark. As we pull back we can show you actually up on the onramp to i95, and you can see the traffic in north and southbound, you can see the tips of the trucks up there moving very, very slowly. Thats a good thing. Its a good thing to go slow, because take a look at the roads and what were seeing in delaware. The snow has been piling up. Like glenn and tammie were saying its been so cold that even the salt that was put down earlier in the week, its having a tough time creating any sort of traction. You need to be careful. If youre going to be on the i495 corridor, theyve slowed the speed limit to 55. I dont think youre safe going 55. Here in the mall complex, people have not decided to stay home and not shop tonight. They havent decided theyre going to stay in completely. You can see towards nordstrom, a lot of people over there are coming out no matter what. At this point i dont think its great for people to come out. Weve also seen a lot of people go to the movie theater. The last jedi is out. You have to ask yourself even if you prebought the tickets if its worth getting on the road. At this point from what im hearing from drivers, they say its not a great time to come out. Maybe a few hours from now it might be a little better. Tim furlong, nbc 10 news. You can see just how that snow is sticking in that parking lot, thanks for that. You can also see the snow behind us falling in center city. Broad street, just a mess right now. Look at that traffic. Busier than normal on this friday night. Nbc 10s aundrea clinethomas is joining us live along that broad street traffic mess in center city. Changed since we last saw you at 4 00 . Reporter it is still snowing steadily but not as hard as it was before. Another change right now, crews are standing in front of their building, theyve been out here working hard for over an hour cleaning up the snow. Theyre working on the steps right there. We put a go pro on our truck as we left the station earlier this afternoon to head down to center city. I want to show you what that drive looked like. Take a look, this is mlk drive. You see that there is some cars that were stalled out on the side of the road about 3 00 this afternoon. As you continue to go, the streets werent plowed. A lot of these drivers are out here driving on streets that had not been pretreated. Thats something that drivers need to be mindful of as they come out on the roads. We talked to a few people about how their maneuvering in this weather. The snow is not my friend. Its fine, its lovely, but not fun to drive in or walk in. It slows everyone down. Like, causes accidents. I slid on snow, slid on ice. Cant do nothing about it. But be careful. Reporter be careful. That is the message tonight, is be careful. You see here on broad street things are going a bit slowly right now. We checked with the School Districts of philadelphia, they say all their evening events are going on as planned. They did tell us expect delays, at least ten minutes on some of the septa lines. Well be back in an hour and tell you how things are going. Aundrea clinethomas. Nbc 10 news. You see those wet sidewalks behind her. Thats going to freeze tonight unless you clear that off completely, which is tough to do. Aundrea clinethomas, keeping us posted in center city. The snow making for a messy evening commute. Brad rudolph from penn dot joins us on the phone. What are your crews doing right now and how are things looking . As the snow begins to accumulate weve dropped our blades, the timing of the storm has been a challenge given its during the rush hour. Theres no magical way to get around traffic. If our guys are stuck its hard to spread the materials. Youre seeing a lot of buildup on a lot of the roadways. We do have some incidents going on. People need to take their time. The timing, again, has been a real challenge for us. But fortunately the storm is moving out quickly. Your crews are going to be working through the night. Of course, if you do find yourself near one of your trucks, give them space, correct . Yeah, give them room to work. They need room to maneuver. Theyre not only watching traffic, theyre determining how much salt to lay down. Theyre worried about their blades, theyre worried about people passing them. Give them the space they need. Theyll be out throughout the night cleaning up any spots overnight into the Early Morning rush. Watch your speeds tonight and into the morning. You said the blades were down, does that mean you salted and now youre scraping the snow off . Or there wasnt an opportunity to salt, we just went in there with the blades . No, we began with salting operations and then once the snow begins to accumulate over an inch, two uninches then we c drop the blade. Until the snow accumulates we lower the blade. Brad rudolph, thanks for your time, we appreciate that. Thank you.

Reporter that firearm fingerprint has been compare today the atfs ballistic search database. A match could help authorities determine how many guns were used and help them to connect seemingly unrelated crime scenes. That can be critical information when the guns used have been stolen and bears no traceable ownership history.

Reporter for the investigators, George Spencer, nbc 10 news. Many larger Police Departments already use search tools to compare ballistic information with atf data.
