IMPACT: Snow developing this evening into tonight, then bitter cold sets up Sunday across south-central Pennsylvania<\/p>\n

A quick-moving system will bring light snow across the Susquehanna Valley this evening and exit by sunrise Sunday. Strong winds and cold temperatures will lead to single-digit wind chills all day on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTONIGHT AFTER NEWS EIGHT AT 11. THE SNOW IS FALLING ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE AREA RIGHT NOW. STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THAT SNOW MOVE INTO OUR NORTHWESTERN COMMUNITIES AND WESTERN COMMUNITIES TOWARDS FRANKLIN AND ADAMS COUNTY, TOWARDS SOUTH MOUNTAIN, TOWARDS MIFFLIN, JUNIATA AND PERRY COUNTIES ALSO SAW SOME SNOW ON THE CARLISLE SKY CAM FALLING. IT\u2019S ABOUT A LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOWFALL RATES FOR CUMBERLAND COUNTY, BUT YOU CAN SEE JUST NOW STARTING TO FILL IN, STILL SEEING SOME CLEAR SPOTS, BUT YOU CAN ALSO NOTICE THERE\u2019S SOME LIGHT BLUES IN THERE. WE MAY BE SEEING SOME LIGHT RAIN TO START, AND THEN ONCE WE GET INTO LATER THIS EVENING CLOSER TO 9:00, THAT\u2019S WHEN WE\u2019LL START TO SEE A LOT OF THIS FILL IN WITH SOME OF THAT LIGHT SNOW. SO DID SEE A FLURRY OR TWO ON THE LANCASTER SKY CAM EARLIER, BUT LOOKING AT MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS RIGHT NOW, TEMPERATURES INTO THE UPPER 30S RIGHT AROUND 37 DEGREES. SO NOT QUITE THERE IN TERMS OF TEMPERATURES YET. BUT ONCE WE GET INTO LATER TONIGHT, INTO THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS, THEN MORE SNOW WILL BE DEVELOPING AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. SO THAT\u2019S WHY WE HAVE IT AS AN IMPACT NIGHT. SINGLE DIGIT WIND CHILLS ARE ON TAP FOR US AS WE GET INTO SUNDAY. WE\u2019VE ALSO MADE SUCH AN IMPACT DAY AND THEN A BIT OF A COLD START TO NEXT WEEK, THEN MILDER FOR NEXT WEEK. WE\u2019LL BE GETTING INTO THE 40S AS WE GET INTO WEDNESDAY AND INTO THE END OF THE WORKWEEK. SO FOR THE REST OF THIS EVENING IMPACT EVENING OVERCAST CONDITIONS WITH SNOW DEVELOPING, TEMPERATURES DROPPING TO THE LOW 30S. THEN FOR TONIGHT, STILL AN IMPACT NIGHT FOR SNOW SHOWERS. AND THEY\u2019LL BE ENDING BEFORE SUNRISE. I\u2019D SAY 4 OR 5:00 IN THE MORNING IS WHEN THE SNOW WILL BE, WILL BE, WILL, WE\u2019LL SEES, AND 26 DEGREES WILL BE FOR THE TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, TOMORROW SUN. THEN LOOKING AT SOME CLOUDS FOR THE AFTERNOON, LOOKING AT CHILLS THOUGH GETTING DOWN TO THE SINGLE DIGITS. WE\u2019VE ALSO MADE IT AN IMPACT DAY FOR TOMORROW. TEMPERATURES REMAIN STEADY IN THE MID 20S, SO LET\u2019S TALK ABOUT TONIGHT IMPACTS FOR TONIGHT. IT\u2019S A MODERATE IMPACT FOR SNOW DEVELOPING. ONCE WE GET INTO ABOUT 7:00 ENDING BEFORE SUNRISE SUNDAY. AND THIS IS GOING TO BE THE LIGHT AND FLUFFY TYPE OF SNOW AND WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT. AREAS NORTH AND WEST OF I-81. YOU\u2019RE LOOKING AT ABOUT A COATING TO ONE INCH OF SNOW. OTHERWISE 1 TO 3IN. HOWEVER, I WILL POINT THIS OUT. SOUTHEASTERN YORK AND LANCASTER COUNTIES JUST NAMING A COUPLE OF OF COMMUNITIES DELTA, FAWN GROVE, QUARRYVILLE, STRASBURG. KIRKWOOD. JUST NAMING SOME AREAS TOWARDS SOUTHERN LANCASTER COUNTY AND TOWARDS SOUTHERN OR SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF YORK COUNTY. YOU COULD BE SEEING 3 TO 5IN AS AS WE GET INTO TONIGHT. SO IF YOU\u2019RE A SNOW LOVER AND YOU\u2019RE TOWARDS THE SOUTHERN END, THIS IS GOING TO BE A THIS IS GOING TO BE IT. WE COULD BE SEEING 1 TO 2 INCH PER HOUR SNOWFALL RATES AS WE GET INTO TONIGHT. BUT HERE\u2019S OUR OFFICIAL SNOW MAP FOR TONIGHT. YOU CAN SEE COATING TO ONE INCH FOR OUR FAR SOUTH. EXCUSE ME, NORTHWESTERN COMMUNITIES, BUT YOU CAN SEE THE DELINEATION HERE IS I-81. SO YOU CAN SEE NORTH AND WEST REALLY LOOKING AT A COATING TO ONE INCH. ONCE YOU GET SOUTH AND EAST, HERE COMES THAT STRIPE FOR THAT 1 TO 3 INCH, 1 TO 3 INCH RANGE. AND THEN HERE\u2019S THAT SOUTHEASTERN MOST THE SOUTHEASTERN MOST COMMUNITIES COULD BE SEEING THAT 3 TO 5 INCH RANGE AS WE GET INTO TONIGHT. NOW IN TERMS OF THE TIMELINE, IT\u2019S GOING TO START TO DEVELOP NOW. AND THEN ONCE WE GET INTO OVERNIGHT SATURDAY. SO CLOSER TO 1011 12 A.M. AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD, THAT\u2019S WHEN IT BECOMES WIDESPREAD. THEN ENDING BY SUNRISE SUNDAY AND IT WILL BE DRY AS WE GET INTO SUNDAY MORNING. BUT HERE\u2019S SOME OF THE TRAVEL WHERE THIS TRAVEL IMPACTS AND SNOW IMPACTS FOR TONIGHT INTO EARLY TOMORROW. TRAVEL CONDITIONS COULD BE SLOW AT TIMES. CLOSINGS AND DELAYS. SOME MAY BE POSSIBLE. POWER OUTAGES ARE LOW. VISIBILITY WILL REMAIN FAIR AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. NOW TALKING ABOUT TOMORROW. TOMORROW IS AN IMPACT DAY FOR YOU CAN SEE WIND SPEEDS GETTING UP TO ABOUT 32MPH, GUSTING TO 32, WITH THE SINGLE DIGIT WIND CHILLS AS WE GET INTO THE AFTERNOON FOR TOMORROW. THAT\u2019S WHY WE\u2019VE ALSO MADE IT AN IMPACT DAY FOR YOUR SUNDAY. COULD SEE GUSTS TO 35MPH. CHILLS COULD BE NEAR ZERO DEGREES AS WE GET INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. COULD SEE SOME BLOWING SNOW IN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. SO 37 DEGREES RIGHT NOW ACROSS THE AREA. HERE\u2019S SOME OF THAT SNOWFALL. WE\u2019RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO TRACK THIS AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. NOW LOOKING AHEAD INTO NEXT WEEK, WE GOT TEMPERATURES GETTING INTO THE 20S FOR MONDAY. COULD SEE A SNOW SHOWER POSSIBLY FOR FAR NORTHERN COMMUNITIES ON MONDAY. WE\u2019RE STILL TRACKING THAT. BUT THEN LOOK AT THIS. STILL COLD, THEN MILD AS WE GET INTO WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
