Philadelphia Weather: Chance Of Light Snow Showers In Pennsylvania As Meteorological Winter Begins Wednesday
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The start of meteorological winter kicks off Wednesday, but winter weather arrived a day early before the unofficial start to the winter season. Light snow showers are making their way across the northern half of the region Tuesday.
Grassy surfaces across the Lehigh Valley, Bucks County, and the Pocono Mountains could pick up about a half-inch of snow. A few flying flurries or spotty rain showers could sneak into our suburbs and pass I-95 through late afternoon.
Otherwise, Tuesday in Philadelphia promises to be cold, breezy, and mostly dry.
On average, the first day of measurable snow in Philadelphia is Dec. 9.
The cold January-like weather continues through Wednesday before we briefly warm up on Thursday.
By the weekend temperatures head back into the 40s!
