Hour-by-hour snow projections for the Susquehanna Valley<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCONDITIONS EARLY TOMORROW MORNING. SO I\u2019VE HIGHLIGHTED THAT AS AN IMPACT. MORNING FOR YOU TOMORROW. STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK RIGHT NOW. ALREADY STARTING TO SEE SOME CLOUDS SCOOTING INTO OUR WESTERN COUNTIES WHILE IT\u2019S CLEAR EAST SERIES OF FRONTS LINING UP IN THE MIDWEST, PACKING SOME SNOW SHOWERS, PACKING SOME COLDER AIR. AND THAT\u2019S WHAT\u2019S COMING FOR US AS WE HEAD INTO TONIGHT AND TOMORROW. SO HERE\u2019S THE PREDICTOR. NOTICE CLOUDS INCREASING THIS MORNING. THICKENING THIS AFTERNOON. MIGHT SEE A FEW BREAKS AS THE SUN GOES DOWN, BUT THAT\u2019S ONLY TEMPORARY. I DO THINK THE CLOUDS COME BACK IN TONIGHT. AND THIS IS AT 1 A.M. ON SATURDAY. SOME SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE AROUND IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. BETTER CHANCE FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES AROUND SUNRISE TOMORROW. NOTICE, ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF THE SUSQUEHANNA RIVER. THAT\u2019S WHERE WE\u2019LL SEE SOME STEADY LIGHT SNOW FOR AN HOUR OR TWO, MAYBE THREE HOURS AT THE MOST. PUTTING DOWN A QUICK COATING TO AROUND AN INCH OF SNOW, AND THEN THAT EXITS BY LUNCHTIME. IT\u2019S OUT OF HERE LATER IN THE DAY, AND MAYBE A RAIN OR SNOW SHOWER LATER IN THE DAY ON SATURDAY, BUT TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL ABOVE FREEZING FOR SUNDAY. LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS OFFSHORE. MOST OF THAT SNOW STAYS WELL TO OUR EAST. WON\u2019T RULE OUT A FLURRY OR TWO HERE, BUT SUNDAY DOES LOOK LIKE A QUIETER DAY FOR US, BUT A COLDER ONE. HERE\u2019S A LOOK AT THE PREDICTOR. ESTIMATED SNOWFALL TOTALS FOR SATURDAY MORNING. MOST SPOTS AGAIN COATING TO AN INCH. AND THEN IT IS GONE. TEN DAY FORECAST. WE ARE GOING TO SEE SOME SIGNIFICANT COLDER AIR NEXT WEEK. MONDAY AN ARCTIC FRONT COMES THROUGH AND LOOK AT TUESDAY\u2019S HIGH. ONLY 22 DEGREES. WE COULD HAVE SUBZERO WIND CHILLS TUESDAY MORNING. THAT\u2019S GOING TO STING. AND THEN AS WE HEAD INTO WEDNESDAY, WINDS RELAX A LITTLE BIT. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY LOOK A BIT MORE SEASONABLE WITH A CHANCE FOR SOME RA\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
