Gradual clearing is expected Sunday into Sunday night with cold conditions and sunny skies Monday giving way to a storm system that might bring an early season snowfall to much of southeastern Pennsylvania.
According to the National Weather Service office in Mount Holly, N.J., which oversees the region, the track of the storm, a nor’easter, remains in some doubt.
A plowable snow is expected north of Interstate 78 from late Monday into Tuesday with several inches expected.
“As you head well south and east of I-78, the potential for plowable snow quickly decreases,” according to the forecast. “Our latest forecast includes snowfall amounts less than 1 inch for the immediate I-95 corridor, 1 to 2 inches for areas just northwest of there.”
Warming conditions are expected to melt whatever snow falls in southeastern Pennsylvania and nearby.
No watches or warnings have yet been issued.
The event would occur mainly on Dec. 2, rather early in the snow season and snowfall records could be set.
The weather service said the date records include Allentown, 3.6 inches in 1952; Philadelphia. 2.0 inches, 1903; Reading, 6.0 inches, 1929; Trenton, 3.0 inches, 1903; and Wilmington, Del. 1.0 inches, 1952.
After the storm moves out and heads northeast, a couple of sunny but cold days are expected, with highs near 40 degrees.
AccuWeather is expecting another round of winter weather at the end of the workweek, but it’s too soon to be specific.
