Nbc 10 first alert meteorologist steve sosna joins us. Its a biting wind that is really going to be the big issue tomorrow, right . Thats right. The focus goes from the messy mixture we have out right now to the wind tomorrow. Really hold on to the Steering Wheel tomorrow with wind gusts up to 50 Miles Per Hour. The wind out there right now, its breezy. But nothing like what well see during the Daylight Hours tomorrow. Its just kind of a rude, raw, Christmas Eve night right now with an area of rain in and around the city and the surrounding suburbs. Pockets of snow mixed in with the rain in northern bucks and Montgomery County. You get up into the Lehigh Valley, you have pockets of sleet and snow. A little bit of everything. The good news is the temperatures are mainly above freezing in most spots. So it should just be wet on the ground even if you do see a slushy accumulation on the grass. This is a vigorous energetic system moving through ohio right now. Its going to spawn a coastal low that moves off to our north and east. And normally that would be a big snowstorm for us. But that storm gets going too late for the party for us. So we have to just deal with some rain and some chilly showers. Right now up in Lehigh Valley, were seeing snowflakes right now. There could be icy spots on the roadways. When you see temperatures like, this 31 in any surface untreated will be slippery. Closer to the city in and around the immediate suburbs, south jersey, its just wet outside. So you dont have to worry than. Again, its not really a friendly night to be outside with those temperatures in the rain coming on down. Future tracker, we show the rain moving out of here. By 2 00 in the morning, tapering off in our southern suburbs. It gets out by about 4 00 or 5 00. There may be flurries whipping around. But youll also feel the wind kicking up that wind will start gusting 40, 45, 50 Miles Per Hour during the day. And the temperatures will not be mild either. Were looking at temperatures tomorrow in the 30s with feelslike temperatures in the low to mid20s. If there is going to be accumulation, it will be up on this higher ridge tops in berks valley. Slippery travel in the poconos. Look how the winds ramp up tomorrow. Well go from 10 or 15milesperhour gusts to 7 00 a. M. Where were gusting to 40, 45 Miles Per Hour. And then well ramp up the gusts as we go through the day tomorrow, gusting upwards of 50 Miles Per Hour. So watch out for some tree limbs, some scattered power outages. And again, it will just be a blustery and cold day, even though the sunshine will be out. That sunshine will need every ray of it. With temperatures in the mid to upper 30s. This is how it really feels outside tomorrow with temperatures in the mid to upper 20s, dropping into the teens. Not our warmest eagles game. Look at this. Temperatures in the teens for game time. If youre headed out to the game to tailgate, take this seriously. Youve got to have the layers and you have to an an option to keep warm, whether its for tailgating or getting inside your car or taking a break from the cold.
