Advisory

INTENSE SNOWFALL RATES CONTINUE RESULTING IN DANGEROUS CONDITIONS

FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE:

As of 12:30 p.m., radar and spotter reports indicate an intense band of
snow across much of eastern Pennsylvania, just north and west of
Philadelphia, to northern New Jersey. Snowfall rates of 2 to 3
inches per hour are common within the core of this band. The leading
edge of this band however down into Chester County is heavy sleet
and this will tend to change to heavy snow this afternoon.
 
The band of intense snow should pivot or expand some across the
Interstate 95 area into the western portions of southern New Jersey
from Burlington to Camden counties from about the New Jersey
Turnpike westward. The movement of this band however will greatly
determine how much snow accumulates this afternoon and this evening.
 
The intense snowfall rates combined with gusty winds are
significantly reducing the visibilities to one quarter mile or less.
This is resulting in dangerous traveling conditions, and therefore
travel is not recommended across the areas being significantly
impacted by this intense snowfall.
