When fans sit around and discuss playoff football, the inevitable conversation comes up of what kind of weather do we want for game time.
It was nice while it lasted but colder temperatures have now filtered back into the region and we could be watching a new system get ready to slide into the region early this week that could drop some snow over the region.
It was a frigid start to the month of January and we had almost a full 2 weeks in many areas where high temperatures in the afternoon never made it above the freezing mark.
Many roads are snow-covered, both in the city and in the suburbs, and multiple accidents have been reported on the roadways.

Multiple low pressure systems are set to move through the region starting today with a potent cold front that should sweep across the Philly region in the early part of the afternoon.
The bulk of the accumulation will likely occur Saturday afternoon.
Winds like we are dealing with Sunday can make driving very difficult, especially for high-profile vehicles.
So how much snow will fall in the Philadelphia area this winter?
Most of the rain for Thursday happening before the daylight hours of the morning, but a few lingering areas of scattered showers are likely as we move throughout the afternoon.

The Atlantic Hurricane Season officially runs from June 1 to November 30, but usually as we head into the month of October we start to turn our attention away from the tropics and start to focus on long-range forecasts for the winter time.

Our lovely stretch of Fall weather continues Friday and into the coming weekend as well, so make sure you are keeping the jackets handy at times.

It will be a warm start to the Fall season as we look for temperatures at times this weekend to push up near 90 degrees!
