I'm no sun angle guy; but by 2:30 PM or so; especially out in the countryside, with the sun getting very low; should help the snow start to accumulate.

Hmm, dad said it changed to sleet and rain in Ewing. Not quite expected.

I could be wrong but the WSW for Philly proper *might* be overdone...heaviest precip *may* be displaced northeast of there...sort of like Dec 2000.

I can't wait to drive back to Westchester when the school days ends...some rain has mixed in here in Brooklyn right now with the precip being lighter. I'm sure it's still all snow up by HPN, however. That band coming ashore could make for some fun driving if it lays down an inch or two.

its 50/50 up in white plains, just left ehite plains 20 mins ago.
